"It's rare to be able to say a word from your mouth," Yang Muyun said secretly in his heart: "I'm not the head of the Department of Officers of the Ministry of War, and I haven't gone to do the errand of the Department of Officers of the Ministry of War?" ”

"This matter must not be made in a big way," Lu Yulin advised: "You must visit secretly, and you must not be in a hurry." ”

"Xiaguan understands." Yang Muyun said.

......

As soon as Yang Muyun went out, Lu Yulin hurriedly came to Kuang's place, and Kuang was sitting behind the bookcase with a contemplative expression.

"Lord Shangshu" Lu Yulin bowed to him after coming in.

"Hmm......" Kwong woke up from his contemplation and waved his hand, "Sit!" ”

"Lord Xie Shangshu!" Lu Yulin took off his robe and sat on the chair next to him.

"Did he go to Wu Wending?" Kwong asked.

"Yes, Lord Shangshu!" Lu Yulin replied: "Although Yang Muyun had a difficult face, he still agreed. ”

"It's really hard for him," Kuang smiled leisurely, "How can you not give him a headache when you give him such a tricky errand when you first join our military department?" ”

"Lord Shangshu," Lu Yulin said with a worried face, "Are you really sure that he won't tell Jinyiwei and Dongchang about this?" ”

"If he is such a person," Kuang said with a smile: "Why should the emperor know about the matter of the new Taicang?" Looking into the distance, "You must know that Wang Zhen wants to take this matter to take down Liu Zhongfu from the household department and install his own people." His gaze retracted and turned to Lu Yulin, "If Yang Muyun were Wang Zhen's person, he wouldn't let Wang Zhen be so embarrassed in front of the emperor!" ”

"But after all, he is Jinyiwei's person," Lu Yulin reminded: "I heard that Jinyiwei also bought a house for Yang Muyun in Baoxiang Hutong in Mingyufang, Lord Shangshu must be on guard!" ”

"I believe in Tingyi's vision," Kuang said: "He patrols Henan, and the courage on his shoulders is not light, if it weren't for Yang Muyun's assistance, I am afraid it would cause a big disaster, not to mention ......" He adjusted his breath slightly, "Yu Tingyi's son-in-law Zhu Ji is a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, so we can't regard the people of Jinyi Wei as traitors." ”

"What Lord Shangshu said also makes sense," Lu Yulin said thoughtfully, "Lord Yu should leave for Beijing, right?" ”

"According to the calculation of the day, I should have received the holy decree," Kuang gasped a few times, "Since Lord Li Li died of illness in office, the burden of this military department has been pressed on the body of this official alone, if it is not for the official to leave Lord Hou behind, I am afraid that no one in New Taicang will be able to control that group of Xiaoxiao." ”

"What Lord Shangshu said is very true," Lu Yulin said in response: "You didn't see it at the time, Wang Zhen sent Dongchang and Jinyi Wei, that is, Lord Zuo Shilang, how can they take it in their eyes if it is someone else?" ”

"This official has long expected that they will cause trouble," Kuang smiled indifferently, "Otherwise, if they let them take people away, Lord Liu will be passive." ”

"If the eunuch party headed by Wang Zhen fails to make a plan, it will definitely cause another incident," Lu Yulin slowed down his voice, "Lord Shangshu must take precautions!" ”

"This official knows," Kuang sneered, "to calculate the old man, they still owe a little bit of Taoism," and then frowned, "I just came to the palace, and Cheng Shaoqi, the commander of the Chaohe Guard, robbed several cargo ships, and the dark cabin under it was full of armor and arrows......"

"Who did this?" Lu Yulin's heart tightened.

"They were holding customs clearance documents for the military to buy leather goods from outside the customs, but apparently this was forged." Kuang said and glanced at Lu Yulin, "Did Yang Muyun say his opinion?" ”

"He suspects that the Ministry of Industry is responsible," Lu Yulin said, "After all, the Wang Gong Factory and the Armor Factory, which manufacture weapons and gunpowder, are under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry. ”

Kuang nodded, a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes, "The old man also thinks so, the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Wang Wei is very close to the eunuch party, and it is impossible to go to these two places in the Ministry of Industry to investigate the East Factory and Jinyiwei." ”

"Then Yang Muyun, will he really do this wholeheartedly?" Lu Yulin said with some unease.

"This person is extraordinary, and he has the help of nobles behind him, didn't he complete the errand of the Imperial Horse Supervisor?" Kuang said lightly: "He is now a strange soldier in the hands of this official, and if he is used well, he will have unexpected gains." ”

Yang Muyun went to the Ministry of War Arsenal Qing Officials Division to visit Langzhong Wu Wending, this person has big ears in life, and he spoke very kindly, and when he saw him, he first praised him, and then said that no matter what Yang Muyun did, he would try his best to assist, let him go back and think of a plan, and then arrange for him to go to the armor factory and Wang Gong factory in the name of inspecting the armament, and said that he did not need to be on duty in the department, and finally politely sent him out.

Yang Muyun walked out of the gate of the military department full of puzzlement in his heart, and when he looked at the sun, it was almost noon.

"Who is the merchant who bought the rice at a high price in my name?" Yang Muyun thought hard, "I am not familiar with life in Beijing, how could such a person suddenly pop up to help me?" ”

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't get the essentials, and I remembered Wu Wending's words, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "In the name of inspecting the armaments, go to the ordnance factory and gunpowder factory under the Ministry of Industry, can you find out a clue?" If I don't ask for a will, will they take out my old books and let me look through them? If you can't, this is a fart! Yang Muyun scolded secretly, "He also said to send me more people, how do I know if these people are easy to use or not?" "I was depressed in my heart," I thought that I could do some serious errands when I came to the Ministry of War, but who knew that it was still sent to Lao Tzu to do it in Jinyiwei before," sighed, "Well, since I let Lao Tzu do it, Lao Tzu will go up hard, as for whether it can be done, it depends on creation." As soon as I thought of this, I was excited.

He just walked with his head bored, and he didn't know where he went, and when he looked up, he saw a forest of shops and more people. Stop and go home? When I thought of Dai Yu's charming and lovely people waiting for me at home, I couldn't help but feel hot on my face, and when I shared the bed with her last night, she actually reached out and touched herself, and the feeling was like an electric current overflowing, numb and crispy. No, he couldn't go back, he made up his mind, looked down the street, and his eyes lit up. I saw several brocade guards wearing azure cloud brocade clothes walking not far ahead, and one of the young men was so handsome that even the woman would be ashamed of herself when she saw it.

"Ning Zuer, hasn't he returned to Nandu yet?" Yang Muyun felt a strangeness in his heart, so he secretly followed behind them.

The four brocade guards beside Ning Zuer are all between twenty and thirty years old, and the color and grade of the clothes should not be low, they keep talking and laughing around Ning Zuer, although Yang Muyun can't hear what they are talking about, but looking at their lewd smiles on their faces, it shouldn't be a good thing.

Looking at Ning Zuer again, with an unnatural expression, he was very reluctant to be with them, but he still had to be humiliated. A brocade guard reached out to hook Ning Zuer's shoulder as he spoke, Ning Zuer's shoulder shrank, he hooked it empty, and had to laugh a few times, and then he didn't move his hands and feet.

The group of five walked into a restaurant called Guangjuxuan, Yang Muyun followed them up to the third floor, and after they entered a private room, Yang Muyun also sat next to them.

After a while, I listened to the noise inside, the punching order, the sound of cups and bowls colliding, and the sound of shouting loudly, so lively.

Yang Muyun asked for a pot of wine, a few dishes of side dishes, and slowly poured himself a drink.

After a few glasses of wine, I heard the noise next door abruptly stop, as if all the people inside had suddenly disappeared. He put down his wine glass in amazement, and was about to listen more carefully, when the figure flashed in front of him, and a handsome face that even women were jealous of came into his eyes.

"Brother Yang, don't come unharmed!" Ning Zuer smiled and hugged his fist.

"You, why are you here?" Yang Muyun glanced at the next door and asked in surprise.

"What, aren't you welcome?" Ning Zuer said with a smile.

"Where," Yang Muyun smiled awkwardly, "Don't you have to accompany them?" ”

"They, they're all drunk!" Ning Zu'er squeezed her eyes narrowly.

......

Yang Muyun asked the bartender to add a new pair of chopsticks and personally poured him a glass of wine.

"I thought you were back in Nandu, but I didn't expect to meet you here." Yang Muyun said.

"Even if this son goes back, won't he say goodbye to you?" Ning Zuer glanced at him.

"Hmm......" Yang Muyun smiled unnaturally, "Since Yang entered the Beijing Saint, he has been sent to the military department as a six-grade director, circulating the Di newspaper, asking for approval, and he is so busy that he really forgot his surname." He paused

"If you set a return date, Yang will definitely drop everything and go to send him off." ”

"Thank you," Ning Zu'er raised his wine glass and drank it all, two blush rose slightly on his white cheeks, "My son has now been left in the North Division, thanks to Brother Yang's blessing, and he is a deputy Qianhu." ”

"It turned out to be a high promotion, congratulations!" Yang Muyun poured him another glass of wine, picked up the wine glass and touched it on the rim of his glass, "Come, a toast to your promotion to a deputy thousand households!" ”

Ning Zu'er smiled and drank it all at the same time as him.

"I think the most depressed person is Lord Shen now," Yang Muyun said: "I left Nansi, and you also left Nansi, and there are even fewer people under him who can be used." ”

"There's no way around that," Ning Zu'er smiled a little helplessly on his face, "The order sent by the commander is sent by the adult, can he oppose it with a pacification envoy?" ”

"Who are they?" Yang Muyun glanced at the next door.

"It's just a group of anointing children," Ning Zu'er said disdainfully, "What are you mentioning them for?" ”

"I didn't expect that we all stayed in the capital, but we were different officials, so there were fewer opportunities to meet." Yang Muyun sighed.

"This is better than the north and south separating each other," Ning Zu'er smiled, "You came to Jingshi, did you go to find Shisu?" ”

"Did she come to Beijing too? I hadn't heard her say anything when I left Nandu," Yang Muyun's eyes flashed, "I must inquire where she is when I have free time?" ”

"But seeing that you are not very busy now," the corners of Ning Zu'er's mouth hooked slightly, "There is still time to stare at this son." ”

"Hmm......" Yang Muyun's face flushed slightly, "I just met you by chance...... Shangshu entrusted me with an errand, and I don't know how to do it? At that moment, 1510 told Ning Zuer the truth of the matter.

"Why do I think you are doing the same thing as Jinyiwei in the military department," Ning Zu'er smiled, "It's a joke that the military department actually wants to investigate such a big thing by yourself!" ”

"Lord Shangshu must have a hard time doing this," Yang Muyun explained: "The relationship between the military department and the inner court is very delicate now, and once it is reported to the emperor and Jinyiwei and Dongchang are allowed to intervene, the case will become more complicated." ”

"Then the military department must rush for time now," Ning Zu'er said, "Before everyone knows about these things, find out the real culprit of smuggling ordnance and gunpowder, otherwise the military department itself will not be able to figure it out." He smiled leisurely, "This is a risky move!" Without the emperor's will and the assistance of Jinyiwei and Dongchang, why did your military department go to investigate the ordnance factory and gunpowder factory of the Ministry of Industry? ”

"yes, why?" Yang Muyun smiled bitterly, "The most difficult thing is here, you know that it is a dangerous move and you have to play." ”

At this time, a group of men suddenly shouted loudly outside, woo woo woo, Yang Muyun and Ning Zuer didn't understand what was said.

Yang Muyun called the bartender and asked what was going on outside.

The bartender said with a smile: "Don't hide it from the two masters, a group of Mongolian Tatars came outside, and they want to buy the wine from the small shop, which disturbs the interest of the two masters in drinking, please bear with me." ”

"Mongolian Tartar?" Yang Muyun asked strangely, "Where did the Mongolian Tartars come from?" ”

"It's the Mongol mission from outside the Guan," the bartender explained, "the Mongol khan sent envoys to pay tribute to my Ming emperor, and there were only a few dozen people at a time, but then it gradually increased to more than a hundred, and this time it was a terrible thing, and five hundred people came at once." ”

"It's just a tribute, why are you sending so many people for?" Yang Muyun asked with some curiosity.

"The two masters are from the south, right?" The bartender pretended to be mysterious and said: "According to the Mongolian envoys, this time they carried more tribute and needed to be escorted by many people, so the number of people who came increased several times," he said and pouted, "Actually, according to my opinion, they are here to eat and drink in my Daming, guest officer, you think, this time out of the Great Wall, it is the wind and sand in the sky, what else can they have besides cattle, sheep and horses?" In their eyes, my Daming is like heaven! ”

"Oh?" Yang Muyun became interested, "Do Mongolian Tartars like to drink?" ”

"I don't like it, I'm a drunk," said the bartender, "these savages, drinking is like drinking water, cups and bowls are not used, picking up the jar and opening the seal and pouring it into the mouth, that guy is like drinking cows." ”
