Yan Chengjin found that his father was a little more robust and a little less weak as a scholar.

The battlefield battle must be very tragic, and people who are used to seeing life and death will always be more indifferent.

Yan Kesong took out an item from the accompanying package: "This Ningxia wolfberry is quite good, big and sweet, Dad brought it back and asked you to cook wolfberry bird's nest porridge." ”

Yan Chengjin asked: "In the barracks, how did Wang Yue treat his father?" ”

"He seems to have some dislike for his father, it's strange to say, how do you know that Wang Yue is going to be unfavorable to his father?" Yan Kesong always felt that those envelopes were not scribbled.

"Dad was ordered to go to the front line, and he had the deep meaning of Wang Yue's military power, and Wang Yue naturally didn't like it, but if he went again this time, Dad could rest assured." Wang Yue was not recalled to Beijing, so he said that His Majesty still needed him to defend the border, and he would not worry about being beheaded.

Yan Ke nodded loosely, of course he didn't know what Yan Chengjin thought, he just said that it was a change of generals before the battle, which was something that many emperors liked to do, threatening his own status, and it was normal for Wang Yue to want to be unfavorable to him, but he didn't think deeper.

Today, Yan Kesong is going to the border of Ningxia again.

He got up very early, much earlier than Yan Chengjin's usual morning exercises, but he didn't want to experience the parting scene, compared with the first expedition to Ningxia Mansion, he was calm.

Left a letter and quietly rode out of Beijing.

After late autumn, seeing that winter is coming, the weather is a little colder, and pedestrians shiver in the cold north wind, and their necks shrink into their clothes.

Ningguo Mansion,

Since the last time I bought the silk quilt of Lao Wang Cloth Workshop in Dongshi, Zhou Shou slept extremely comfortably, and the two of them ...... , I don't feel that the quilt is too pressing.

"Brother, you asked me to come over early in the morning just to see this broken quilt?" Changning Bo Zhou Yu was not happy.

"You know the! You touch the material, forget it, you lie down and try it. Zhou Shou pushed him on, and as soon as the quilt was covered, Zhou Yu suddenly felt a burst of warmth.

Zhou Yu turned over, no matter how he lay down, he felt very comfortable, and his eyes lit up: "It's light and warm, this is good, I'll ask the housekeeper to buy one." ”

Zhou Shou said with a smile: "Now in the capital, I heard that many dignitaries have bought it, even Liu Jian, who has always been diligent and thrifty, has also bought it. ”

"What does Liu Jian have to do with our Zhou family when he buys it?" Zhou Yu was puzzled.

Zhou Shou scolded: "You are stupid! What is the most important thing in our Zhou family? ”

"Silk!"

"That's right! If we sell this quilt, I don't know how much silver we can make compared to making silk satin! Zhou Shou said.

His Zhou family is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, there are large mulberry fields, doing the business of raising silkworms and supplying silk, selling silk to the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, giving the royal family a role, so much that even if a part of it is taken out to make quilts, the Zhou family can afford it.

This silk quilt is only in the capital, there are many rich merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, and it seems that it is about to enter winter, if the silk is sold to the gentry of the two capitals and thirteen provinces, how much silver can be earned?

Zhou Shou inquired, the name of the old Wang cloth workshop is limited, but in fact, it can't make so many silk quilts, and there are only a few workers lacking at the moment.

Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood his brother's intentions.

Wang Busui hurried to Yan's mansion, he sold five silk quilts that day, and when they were delivered to the door, he found that the bad old man who was in the store that day turned out to be Ning Guogong Zhou Shou!

Today, Zhou Shou came again, and asked him for a few quilt workers, he was false and wronged, and ran back to report to Yan Chengjin.

Wang Busui said with a worried face: "Ning Guogong wants workers this time, but I'm afraid that he wants to make the silk quilt himself and rob our business." ”

Ning Guogong Zhou Shou?

When the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Zhou?

Empress Dowager Zhou and Emperor Hongzhi have a very close relationship, Emperor Hongzhi had a rough childhood, persecuted by Wan Guifei, fortunately Empress Dowager Zhou took him to his side to raise, in the deep palace to protect him to grow up, Emperor Hongzhi is very grateful to her, love the house and Wu, to the Empress Dowager Zhou's younger brother Ning Guogong and Chang Ningbo Bo are very good.

"Young Master Yan doesn't know, the villain heard a few times ago that Ning Guogong has a large area of mulberry land in Jiangnan, employing a large number of silkworm farmers to raise silkworms, and the silk raw materials for our silk quilt are bought from Ning Guogong." Wang Busui said.

If Ning Guogong is determined to do this business, wouldn't it be a game with a tiger for food, how can he grab it?

Yan Chengjin frowned, there is a big difference between the earl and the duke, although the father has just been crowned the uncle of Anding, but compared with Ning Guogong, it is still much worse, besides, there is still the Empress Dowager Zhou behind Ning Guogong.

Yan Chengjin is just preparing to recruit a group of displaced people and preparing to expand mass production, and he has thought of a name, just Mercury Simmons, how can he make people eat from their mouths?

Just as he was thinking hard, how could he come in and say, "Young master, that Zhao Houzhu is here again!" ”

Yan Chengjin has a headache, and has been pondering whether to raise the courtyard wall of Yan's Mansion a little higher recently.

As soon as He Neng's words fell, Zhu Houzhao appeared in Yan Chengjin's field of vision, the weather was cold, and Zhu Houzhao also wore a brand-new cotton jacket.

Zhu Houzhao was a little puzzled: "Old Gao, why does this palace think that the walls of your house are heightened?" ”

"That's the delusion of His Highness, His Highness hasn't climbed for some days, right? Now that I climb again, I naturally feel a little high. Yan Chengjin said very enthusiastically: "Come on, make a pot of wolfberry and red date tea!" ”

I secretly slandered in my heart, Zhu Houzhao is a flea, the courtyard wall has been increased to two meters high, and he can turn in again...

"Your Highness is here, there is something to do, Zhu Ye hasn't been here recently."

Zhu Houzhao looked annoyed: "My father already knows that Zhao Houzhu is the palace, and the palace can't write any more books, otherwise he will be whipped, Lao Gao, do you still have a way to let the palace not be beaten and clear its reputation?" ”

"Where is there such a good thing, Your Highness will please go back after drinking this pot of wolfberry and red date tea, don't come to the students again."

Zhu Houzhao pinched Yan Chengjin's neck with an angry face: "This palace is desperately at the risk of being beaten, and you have come thousands of miles to meet, and you actually used a pot of wolfberry tea to send this palace away?" ”

Yan Chengjin pinched Zhu Houzhao's person: "Hmph! Every time His Royal Highness came, Jinyiwei intimidated the students and asked them to tell the whereabouts of His Highness, and the students trembled every time, and how to calculate the mental damage fee and hush money! Come on, beat him up! ”

Beat the prince!

Don't die, don't die!

Knowing that this is the crown prince of the dynasty, Wang Busui was already frightened, covered his ears, closed his eyes, and the six roots were pure, I didn't hear anything, I didn't see anything.

Don't give some color Zhu Houzhao to see, Zhu Houzhao bento he can be pitted casually, Yan Chengjin is also true, backhand to Zhu Houzhao "catch the dragon and hold the nose"!

After a few moments, the two sat in the main hall and stared dryly.

In fact, Yan Chengjin knew that Zhu Houzhao liked that others would not treat him as a prince, mess around with him, and replace him with other princes of the Ming Dynasty, he would never dare to do this.

Zhu Houzhao threatened Wang Busui and said, "What did Lao Gao plan with you just now?" This palace is the prince, if you don't tell this palace, you are bullying the king, this palace will remember it first, and when this palace becomes the emperor, I will settle accounts with you. ”

That's how he usually intimidates ministers in the palace, and this trick has been tried and tested repeatedly.

Wang Busui almost fainted, curled up in a ball, knelt on the ground and trembled, crying: "Ning Guogong wants to rob Yan Gongzi's business, and the little one is here...... Reported! ”

Silver and life, of course, life is more important!

Wang Busui said everything Ning Guogong wanted to do, and Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up: "Lao Gao, you said that if this palace supports justice and complains to his father, can he get a reputation for being high-spirited?" ”

"Ning Guogong is His Royal Highness's uncle, this is the righteous destruction of relatives, right?" Yan Chengjin's face darkened.

Zhu Houzhao poked his two index fingers together, a little entangled, and then took the case, and sneered: "It's not a righteous killing of relatives, my father once hurt his relatives, and he must not use his power to oppress people and disrupt the market order, he does not repent, and this palace only exposed him because he was too righteous!" ”

Yan Chengjin bet that it was the prince who was beaten.

At this time, it was still hundreds of years before the patent law came out, and it was still in the Fran machine.

Ning Guogong's silk is reasonable and legal, even if the prince can sue him, when Ning Guogong goes to the queen mother to cry, the queen mother Zhou is soft-hearted, and Emperor Hongzhi is cowardly.

No matter how you look at it, it was Zhu Houzhao who was beaten.

"The student is trying to make a deal with Ning Guogong, and His Royal Highness exposes it, so it will ruin the good thing of the student, it is better to do this business with the student and win a reputation for the country and the people." Yan Chengjin said honestly.

Zhu Houzhao came to his senses: "What do you have in mind?" ”
