Zheng Ke's study is still lit up, and since Yang Muyun left, there has been another person in the room.

This person was dressed in black, with a black scarf covering his face, and his eyes were as cold as an eagle falcon.

"Master Hou—"

Zheng Ke didn't seem to be surprised by his arrival at all, and only said lightly, "You're here?" ”

The man in black bowed slightly and said, "The eldest prince heard that Hou Ye had returned triumphantly, so he asked the villain to come over to congratulate Hou Ye." ”

"His ears are pointed," the corners of Zheng Ke's lips hooked slightly, "It's almost comparable to Jingfuji." ”

"Hou Ye has won the award!" The man in black placed a piece of paper with handwriting on it.

The paper is fluorescent, and it turns out to be a high-quality flower paper from the Ming Dynasty.

"What is this?" Zheng Ke glanced at the paper.

"A few things, not a tribute, I hope that Hou Ye will accept it with a smile," the man in black added, "The things listed above are all stored in the Anyuan Inn, and Hou Ye can only send someone to take this order to get it." ”

Zheng Ke swept the listed things on the paper: gold-inlaid gemstone mandarin duck pot, silver-inlaid jade Ruyi, gold and silver lions, jade tiger ear luminous cups and so on...... Ten chests of gold and silver utensils, jewelry, and various jade and brocade calligraphy and paintings, most of them are from the Ming Dynasty. couldn't help sneering, "The eldest prince is so big, so many valuable things Benhou doesn't dare to ask for wow!" ”

"Master Hou," the man in black smiled faintly, "The eldest prince admires you very much, what is the value of something outside his body?" ”

"It seems that Langshan Mansion is really a good place," Zheng Ke said hesitantly: "The eldest prince can make a fortune there!" ”

"It's just an idle feudal lord," the man in black said, "It's not the same as the power of the marquis." ”

"My Dayue's regulations, the ministers of the court and the central government are not allowed to make friends with foreign feudal monarchs, doesn't the eldest prince understand this rule?" Zheng Ke glanced at the man in black.

"The rules, the eldest prince still understands," the man in black said, "But doesn't the Hou Ye want to leave a way back for himself?" ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Zheng Ke raised his eyebrows.

"Now the king is relying on the marquis, but what about the king a hundred years later?" The man in black saw Zheng Ke's face move slightly, and continued: "Now it is Ruan Shiying, the daughter of Zuo Xiang Ruan Chi, who is the queen, although the king has never set up a son, but the queen has a prince under his knees, and the queen's son inherits the throne. Even if the king has never established a son, as long as Nguyen Thi Anh's queen position is not deposed, the throne of the king of Da Viet will be Le Bang Kyi sooner or later. At that time, how can Hou Ye deal with himself? You must know that you and Ruan Xiang have been at odds for a long time, and his brother Ruan only died in your barracks, how will he calculate this account? ”

"You don't have to be alarmist!" Zheng Ke's face changed.

"Why should Master Hou deceive himself?" The man in black's eyes flickered, "Master Hou is eloquent, but your two sons ......" hehe smiled, "It's far worse than you, Master Hou, don't you think more about your children and grandchildren?" ”

Zheng Ke snorted, "Then what do you say I should think about?" ”

"Master Hou is a smart person, he should know who to bet the treasure on," the man in black said indifferently: "Li Kechang and Li Sicheng's mother has a low status, and she can't shake Ruan Thi Anh's queenship, once Li Bangji ascends the throne as king." Hou Ye and your Zheng family's good days are coming to an end. ”

"You want me to support your eldest son?" Zheng Ke laughed and said: "You must know that the king is now in the spring and autumn period, and it is too early to talk about inheriting the throne, right?" ”

"What Hou Ye said is right," the look in black remained unchanged, "But Hou Ye should not forget, the first king is only more than forty years old, who can say for sure?" If the Hou Ye does not take precautions, I am afraid that it will be too late to regret it in the future. Seeing that Zheng Ke was silent, he arched his hand to him, "The eldest prince is sincere to fellowship with the Hou Ye, if the Hou Ye is willing to help the eldest prince, the eldest prince will be grateful for the great virtue of the Hou Ye...... It's getting late, so the villain won't disturb the Hou Ye to rest and say goodbye! ”

"Wait!" Zheng Ke stopped him and picked up the paper on the table, "You take this away!" ”

"If Master Hou doesn't want to take it, someone will keep it for Master Hou. Will the things sent by the eldest prince be taken back? The figure in black flashed and disappeared into the night.

Zheng Ke looked at the direction in which the man in black disappeared, and his heart was full of thoughts.

"Lord Hou......"

Zheng Ke was shocked, Huo Ran turned around, but his wife was standing behind him.

"Madame, you...... How long have you been here? Zheng Ke asked in surprise.

"The concubine just came in," Mrs. Zheng said, "I was afraid that you would be tired, so I made a pot of tea." ”

"Just let the subordinates do these things, why bother Madame, you come in person?"

"The concubine is just not worried about the master, so she came over to take a look." Mrs. Zheng said and placed the teapot on the table.

Seeing her worried look, Zheng Ke stared at her and asked, "Did you hear what I said in the room just now?" ”

Mrs. Zheng didn't answer, just raised her head and looked at him and said, "Master Hou, don't think too much, let's rest early, right?" ”

Zheng Ke let out a long sigh, "You go, I want to be quiet here." ”

"Master Hou," Mrs. Zheng came to his side and said softly, "You are now a very popular minister, so don't associate with those who are not careful, so as not to pollute yourself and involve your own children." ”

"What do you know?" Zheng Ke glanced at his wife unhappily, "Now that the court is treacherous, the king's heart is unpredictable, I have to think about a way back for my children!" ”

"Children have their own blessings, and besides, Ah Zhao has joined the Tietu Army as a commander, and he is very brave in charging into battle!"

"It's just the courage of the horseman," Zheng Ke shook his head, "For the strategy and scheming, the situation changes, that's ignorance!" It's hard to take on a big job. ”

"Ah Zhao is still young, you can teach it slowly!" Mrs. Zheng said: "And Ah Hao, he is smart and clever, won't he be another big help from you when he grows up?" ”

"Madame said it easily, Ah Zhao is honest and straightforward, and his temperament is like this, how can he be thorough?" Zheng Ke smiled bitterly: "When Ah Hao grows up, at least ten years later, I don't know if I can last until then." ”

"Master Hou, you are still in the prime of life, why do you say such unlucky words?" Mrs. Zheng said: "Instead of worrying about this, you might as well find a husband for Ayu, and then your uncle can also help you." ”

"Oh?" Zheng Ke's eyes narrowed slightly, sticking to his beard and said, "Did Ayu tell you anything?" ”

"How can I let my daughter's family talk about this?" Mrs. Zheng glanced at her husband, "She's almost sixteen years old, can I, as a mother, not worry about her?" She has always worn a mask and refused to show her true face, but now she has taken off the mask and dressed up carefully. It seems that this girl has grown up. ”

"Well," Zheng Ke nodded, "Since you say so, don't you already have a candidate in mind?" ”

"The concubine is about to discuss this matter with the Hou Ye!" Mrs. Zheng said with a smile: "Ding Yu, the son of the court's Hou Ding Lie, is now eighteen years old, and he has reached the age of marriage. ”

"Ding Yu?" Zheng Kewen frowned.

"What, did Master Hou forget?" Mrs. Zheng said: "Ding Lie fought side by side with the Hou Ye when he was the first king, and after the re-establishment of the country in Dayue, he was crowned the Hou with you, and he had a son, don't you remember?" ”

"Of course I remember," Zheng Ke snorted, "When I fought against the Ming army back then, this Ding Lie didn't fight with me a lot, and now he is very close to Ruan Chi." Why do you think about marrying him? ”

"What's so bad about marrying the Ding family?" Mrs. Zheng said: "They are the family of the marquis, and we are also the family of the marquis, and the door is right, which is very suitable." ”

"Is Ayu willing?" Zheng Ke said: "She already has someone in her heart, can't you see it?" ”

"Who?" Seeing that her husband was silent, Mrs. Zheng suddenly woke up and said, "You said it's the Ming man named Yang Muyun?" ”

"Ayu didn't mention this to you?"

"She only said that Yang Muyun was your new subordinate, let me meet him, and didn't say anything else."

"I have a lot of subordinates," Zheng Ke said with a smile, "Don't you wonder why Ayu didn't bring someone else to you to see, but him?" ”

"You mean Ayu fell in love with this Yang Muyun?" Mrs. Zheng frowned slightly.

"What, you're not satisfied with the person your daughter likes?"

"People are talented," Mrs. Zheng said thoughtfully, "but as soon as I asked about his family, I was interrupted by Ayu." ”

"That's because Ayu, she doesn't want you to know." Zheng Ke said.

"What is there to hide?" Mrs. Zheng was puzzled, "It's just to ask about his family, is there anything hidden that is difficult for me to say?" ”

"Since I don't want you to know, don't ask," Zheng Ke said: "Don't look at Yang Muyun's youth, he is both civil and military, I can capture the pot so smoothly and return triumphantly, thanks to this person!" He is thoughtful and perceptive, and I have no one under him, and he is a rare talent. ”

"The concubine has never heard Hou Ye praise a person like this," Mrs. Zheng's eyes flickered, "Does Hou Ye want Ah Yu to marry this person?" ”

"This ...... It depends on the fate of the two! Zheng Ke said: "If Ah Zhao can have half of Yang Muyun, I will be very relieved." ”

Seeing her husband's words flickering, Mrs. Zheng was a little unhappy, "What does Master Hou mean by this?" People have already moved into our house, and they are getting along with Ayu again. Master Hou, don't you have an attitude, do you want Ayu to be like this with him all the time? What does this make outsiders think of our family? ”

"Yang Muyun is just staying here temporarily," Listening to Mrs. Zheng's words, Zheng Ke felt that his head was a little big, "Ayu knows how to measure, so don't think too much." ”

"Why is the concubine thinking too much?" Mrs. Zheng was still chattering, "Don't forget that Ayu is the daughter of the Hou Mansion, and the nobles in Tokyo are all looking at our family!" If any rumors get out......"

"Okay, okay," Zheng Ke interrupted her impatiently, "I'm tired and I'm going to rest, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it tomorrow!" ”

————————————

Early the next morning, Zheng Yu personally came over and asked Yang Muyun to have breakfast with their family.

Zheng Ke and Zheng Zhao left the house early.

There were only Mrs. Zheng, Zheng Yu, Yang Muyun and Xiao Zheng Hao at the table.

Mrs. Zheng asked about Yang Muyun's family again, and Zheng Yu was cleverly vague from it.

After breakfast, Zheng Yu changed into men's clothes and invited Yang Muyun to go out for a walk.

Seeing her take off her mask and look heroic, Yang Muyun suddenly felt a little unaccustomed.

"Are you really no longer wearing a mask?" Yang Muyun asked.

"Well," Zheng Yu nodded very seriously and said, "Isn't it good for me to look like this?" ”

"Beautiful."

"Let's go," Zheng Yuyan smiled, "I'll take you out to see the prosperity of Tokyo City." Without saying anything, he picked him up and left.

"This ...... Madame, does she know? Yang Muyun asked cautiously.

"Shh-" Zheng Yu asked him to silence him, and said in a low voice, "Let's go out through the back door, if you don't say my aunt, she won't know." ”

"Isn't that right?" Yang Muyun was a little apprehensive in his heart.

"What's the?" Zheng Yuxiu frowned, "What does a big man's mother-in-law look like?" ”

The two crept to a remote door in the backyard and looked around, but fortunately there was no one.
