Mr. Drunkard once said, "It's a blessing or a curse, and it's a curse!" ”

Zuo Chen thought, even if he has a good life, he can't be led by the nose to live a muddy life. After thinking about it again and again, he endured hunger and read a letter to his family at night, he believed that with the importance that the old man attached to his family, he would never ignore this matter and ignore it, after all, marrying a close relative of an enemy family, no one dared to guarantee whether it was a disastrous decision for the family.

Zhang Youcai, who had a good letter from home, set off overnight, holding the token of the Ministry of War, so that the garrison department opened the city gate in a panic and left.

Sending Zhang Youcai away, chewing wax to fill his stomach, Zuo Chen has never felt that the food is so difficult to swallow, obviously there are his favorite prawns and abalone, isn't it fresh and dry goods sent by Wang Xingke this spring?

In this way, with a head full of doubts and full of thoughts, he gradually fell asleep, in the dream, the old man who came to Kyoto, just like the Monkey King in his memory, made a big fuss in the imperial study, and scolded the emperor and the queen mother for nothing, Prince Qing said good things with a smiling face on the side, of course he didn't eat this set of rhetoric of the prince, but also scolded him, at this time, I don't know if it was Zhang Kang or Zhang Youcai, he actually pulled himself......

Suddenly opened his eyes, Zhang Kang was bending over and shaking his arms, shouting: "Childe! Childe wake up! ”

It turned out to be Nan Kemeng, muttering in his heart, and asked, "Uncle Zhang, what's wrong?" ”

"Someone from the palace has announced the decree......"

Zuo Chen didn't want to be characterized as contemptuous of the emperor's prestige because of this, so he quickly washed and dressed neatly, and ran to the front yard like a dog and a rabbit.

The sound of congratulations resounded, and Zuo Chen, who pretended to be smiling, did not go against everyone's kindness, "Everyone goes to the bookkeeper to take ten taels of silver and reward them!" ”

Everyone thanked each other again, and their happy smiling faces were really like blooming flowers.

Such a cheerful atmosphere did not infect Zuo Chen's mood, he still felt that he was full of bitter water, and he couldn't pour it out! Thinking that he would report to the Yamen of the Ministry of Industry tomorrow, and I didn't know if he would go to the morning court every day like all the ministers, he couldn't help but frown into a pimple.

"Childe is disgusted that the grade is too low, and he is not happy?" Wu Jiang didn't know why, and said teasingly.

"Alas! ……”

"Really!? If you're like this, do we still have a way to live? Zhang Kang said disdainfully, squinting at Zuo Chen, "In the future, how about calling you Liu Gongzi?" Or do you call you Liu Shilang? ”

That is, Zuo Chen indulges people like this, no big or small, ridicule and laughter are commonplace, he just likes this kind of atmosphere, as long as he is sincere and close to his family, it is understandable to be excessive, and the people also like to get along with him, the feeling of home makes them feel unrestrained, just like treating their brothers like siblings, although Zuo Chen has always called them uncles.

"It's not just the squire! Princess Ruxuan was also promised to me by the emperor! ”

"Oh?"

"Huh!?"

Wu Jiang and Zhang Youcai looked at each other, and they both saw each other's exaggerated faces due to shock, and said in unison: "Okay! Congratulations! ”

"What a fart! It's Li Ziqin's nephew! ”

“…… Yes! The two of them are the same.

"Did you two do it on purpose?" Zuo Chen glanced at the expressions of the two of them, and said in his heart, when did you two cooperate so tacitly?

Zhang Kang blushed and scratched his head with his hands, "Although the princess is Li Ziqin's nephew, and she is the emperor's biological daughter after all, she really dares to go against the emperor's wishes, which is not good for the Liu family?" After speaking, Xiang Wu Jiang and Zuo Chen's faces glanced at them one by one.

“…… This, but it's hard to say, if Li Guifei is indomitable, then it's a different situation, the emperor is his father and concubine is also his mother, isn't it? Wu Jiang said worriedly, obviously disagreeing with Zhang Kang's statement.

"It's said that women are outgoing, and they can't be finalized...... Zhang Kang defended, looked at Zuo Chen and asked, "What do you think?" ”

Taking a deep breath, Zuo Chen said: "I didn't think about it so much, her uncle died at the hands of my Lao Tzu, this is an indisputable fact, this thing is not something that can be concealed, I think ......, no one dares to guarantee that she will not make the Liu family restless, and it is impossible to say how things are, so I asked Uncle Youcai to go home and report to the old man......"

"Oh, I said why I didn't see my cousin's shadow, and I thought I went to the shop, but it turned out that I had returned to Haiyang." Zhang Kang suddenly realized and said: "It is a matter of time to report to the old man, but his old man has a way to change it?" The emperor's golden words are not changed. ”

Wu Jiang, who rubbed his chin with his hand, nodded in agreement with Zhang Kang's statement, and said: "This emperor Lao'er, it's really a mess of mandarin duck scores, why does it have to be Princess Ruxuan?" He looked at Zuo Chen suspiciously, and said, "Does the emperor want to use this to resolve the grudge between the Li and Liu families?" ”

"Uncle Wu, you are only partially right, I think the emperor is worried that above the court, the polarization of hundreds of officials because of the enmity between the two families is becoming more and more serious, in order to avoid getting out of control, it is estimated that it is necessary to make this decision in a timely manner." Zuo Chen calmly analyzed and said slowly.

"Will it be about the court? Alarmist, right? Zhang Kang said.

"Possibly! You think, the six departments of the imperial court, Li Ziqin is the secretary of the criminal department, and it has nothing to do with us. Zhao Pengfei of the Ministry of War, Xin Zhongguo, the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu, are all friendly with the prince, and we can see some clues when our shop opens, otherwise the token of the Ministry of War will easily fall into my hands? My Lao Tzu is also a general who guards the border passes, and he is a good friend of the prince, who doesn't know? Therefore, the emperor and none of them really tore their faces, so they wanted to blend together as much as possible. ”

Zhang Kang shook his head, "I didn't understand!" ”

"Ugh! ......, to put it simply, because the enmity between my family and the Li family has developed into a confrontation between the opposite sides of the court, in order to avoid too deep resentment between the ministers, the emperor wants to match the Liu and Li families, the source of the grudge, if they get their wish, they will not all be happy? ”

"The emperor can be regarded as having made a bloody investment and compensated all his princesses, isn't it a panic of grievances?" Wu Jiang said with a smile.

"The whole Antai belongs to his family, and the emperor's concept of home is very different from ours in nature......" Zuo Chen followed the words, remembering the emperor's expression when he saw the cold ice and the glass mirror in the imperial study, which was completely different from other people, and it must be based on this reason.

Thinking that there were still a lot of things in the shop that had not been arranged, Zuo Chen couldn't sit still, "Let's go to the shop and take a look, Uncle Wang doesn't see my shadow, don't think I'm deliberately alienating him, that's not good." ”

"Do you still think about him? Cut, and Wang Ping are like long-lost brothers, and now they are like glue knees, it is estimated that if you don't see him in front of him, you will definitely not remember who you are!" Zhang Kang pouted and said, still thinking about the table of good wine and good food promised by Wang Xingke, which has not yet been fulfilled.

"Oh? I didn't expect the relationship to develop so well. Zuo Chen said.

"Childe, you two go, my body is now in the recovery period, and my whole body is itching and uncomfortable......" Wu Jiang waved his hand and said.

"It's good to go out for a walk! You don't feel uncomfortable at home all day? Zhang Kang looks like five big and three rough, and his temper is hot enough, but he looks at Wu Jiang's movements with his eyes, but he looks like an old lady.

was finally moved by Zhang Kang's words, and Wu Jiang followed the two of them to the shop.

Compared with other shops, "Century Zuochen" seems to be much more deserted, sparse customers, there are really few real buyers, the shopkeeper and the guy are happy to relax, and the time to drink tea more comfortably than to greet customers.

Seeing Zuo Chen and his party enter the house, the shopkeeper and the guy hurriedly got up and greeted him.

"What about the king's steward and the king's treasurer?" Zuo Chen waved his hand and asked.

"If you go back to Gongzi, the two of you are drinking tea and chatting on the second floor." The shopkeeper replied respectfully, got up and pointed upstairs.

Zhang Kang said with a smile: "I'll just say it!" These two goods smell the same, and the neck is not separated from the five organs. ”
