As soon as you enter the wax moon, it seems that you immediately have some flavor of the year.

New Year's goods from all over the shops in Beijing have been put out early, the mountain delicacies of Liaodong, the seafood of Fujian, and the fine wine of Shuzhong...... All the good things in the world are gathered at the feet of the Son of Heaven in order to sell them for a good price.

And the people of the capital are also well-informed, with the increasing prosperity of maritime trade, there are more things overseas, nothing is unusual, and it is not easy to earn their silver.

But this year is really unusual, that is, there are a lot of beef and mutton on the market, and the price is very cheap.

In previous years, mutton came mostly from Liaodong, since the restart of Yansuima City last year, Beijing is mostly meat sheep from Saibei, and the price has also dropped, but it is definitely not cheap, and it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Not to mention beef.

In order to protect the cattle, the imperial court forbade the slaughter of cattle without permission, even if the cattle died of illness, they had to report to the government before they could dispose of the beef.

The trade of livestock at the border gates is also more likely to buy and sell higher-value cattle.

If ordinary people want to eat beef, they can only think about it.

But most of the beef on the market this year is sauce meat and bacon.

There are inevitably discussions in the market, saying that the horse market has been reopened in many places at the border this year, and the Tartars are afraid that the Ming Dynasty will cultivate too many cattle, so they deliberately slaughtered the cattle and sold the meat directly.

Speaking of which, they are all filled with righteous indignation, but who doesn't turn around and happily buy cheap beef and mutton back!

In fact, the people are the easiest to be satisfied, as long as there is meat in the pot, it is a fat year, and the smell of meat wafts from every house in the day, and the days are extraordinarily rushing.

At this time, in the warm pavilion of the public hall of the leopard house in Xiyuan, there were also bursts of fresh mutton.

Brother Shou is shaking mutton around the warm pot, a pair of chopsticks are flying up and down, eating eyebrows and dancing, so happy, from time to time he has to shout: "Fresh tight, fresh tight!" ”

"It's better than the Liaodong sheep you respect." Brother Shou smiled and poked Zhang Hui with chopsticks.

Zhang Hui also ate a lot of sweat, and said with a smile: "The emperor didn't say that back then, I think Liaodong sheep is tired of eating, and I think Saibei sheep is good." ”

Brother Shou still had a hippie smile on his face, but his words were quite meaningful, "It's not that I'm greedy, this mutton in Liaodong is good, but it's still not as good as that in Northern Xinjiang." ”

Zhang Hui's hand holding the meat couldn't help but pause, and soon sent the meat to the entrance very naturally, and said with a smile while munching: "Emperor Shengming, restart the horse market, Fang Lingchen and others are fortunate to taste such deliciousness." Hey, I really look forward to eating it every day! ”

Then he turned around and smiled at Pang Tianqing and said, "This is Lao Zikuo." ”

Pang Tianqing also accompanied him at the table, but he ate more than these two, and when he heard this, he calmly put his chopsticks and got up, and saluted Brother Shou: "The minister will do his best to ......."

Brother Shou hurriedly waved his chopsticks and waved his hand, and said dissatisfiedly: "There are no outsiders, it's boring to say this!" Sit down, sit down, eat fast, eat fast. He also pointed to Zhang Hui, "This guy is a big meal, and if you don't eat it, he will rob it." ”

Pang Tianqing smiled and sat down again.

After the resumption of the horse markets in various border passes, the Siyi Pavilion also has branches in the local area as a "translation agency", and it has further extended its tentacles to the grassland.

Pang Tianqing's status has been elevated because he is in charge of the affairs here, and his official position is already a bachelor of Hanlin on the surface, and his wife Cai Luo was even made a county monarch last month.

Of course, in the eyes of outsiders who don't know the truth, these are all because of the mansion of the eldest princess of Chun'an.

The eldest princess of Chun'an and her wife have always fully supported all the policies of the emperor, especially the implementation of the policy of the clan, and Cai Yuma, who was the order of the sect, has made great contributions.

The emperor reciprocated the favor, and it was nothing to give their granddaughter a county king.

Originally, the rank of the bachelor was not high, and at that time, it was the time when people from all walks of life carved up the position of the eunuch party, Pang Tianqing was backed by the eldest princess's mansion, and it was normal for him to be promoted to one or two levels.

Those who are jealous are also reluctant to say a few sour words.

Pang Tianqing has always been open-minded, and he has never paid attention to those criticisms, and only devoted all his energy to Jiubian. Now that the emperor intends to be in northern Xinjiang, he can also show his ambitions.

"There will be a large number of livestock this year, which is also expected, but it is still more than the ministers and others previously expected." Pang Tianqing then talked about the situation of border trade.

At the beginning, Lu merchants bought a large number of livestock in the horse market in Liaodong, so that the tribes close to Liaodong not only sold their own cattle and sheep, but also made a lot of money by being second-class dealers.

The news spread all over the grassland, and all the departments were hot.

So when Yansuima City reopened, many tribes tried to come over and trade.

Under the impetus of Yang Yiqing, Shen Rui and others, the Ming Dynasty repeatedly relaxed the livestock transaction limit, and strictly managed the market order, made the price relatively fair, and strictly prevented fraud and looting.

In the past, the scale of breeding was limited because of the shortage of forage in autumn and winter, which could not feed so many cattle and sheep, and the final slaughter was also a waste. Now you can sell the surplus livestock to Daming before the autumn, in exchange for the rice, grain and cloth needed for the winter, so what are you hesitating about!

The news spread, more than one tribe has expanded breeding, and this year more Ningxia and Datong horse markets have been opened, because there are many merchants who feel that they will be able to sell more cattle and horses, and many tribes are driving all the livestock that can be sold in the tribe to the border pass, ready to make a big profit.

As a result, a large number of cattle and sheep gathered, causing prices to plummet.

But many cattle and sheep can't be raised this winter, so basically as long as they don't lose money, the herdsmen pinch their noses and sell them.

The merchants of Daming were happy when they bought it, but they also had to consider the labor cost of forage on the way back - there was a drought in many places in Daming this year, and the price of forage has also risen a lot.

You can't slaughter cattle at will in Daming, and you can't break the law on the grassland...... As a result, many cattle and sheep have become cured meat products that are easy to store.

This benefit also fell on the people of Daming, enriching the table of the New Year's Festival.

However, no one is a fool, which tribe is willing to bother to raise big cattle and sheep to cheapen the people of the Ming Dynasty?

There are no outsiders in this warm pavilion, Pang Tianqing replied bluntly, "Although there are many cattle and sheep this year and the price is cheap, we have taken advantage of it, but in this way, there will be fewer cattle and sheep on the grassland next year." ”

"In particular, the news that has just come back from the grassland is warm this winter, and there has been no snow so far."

The emperor only called him and Zhang Huilai, not just for them to share the delicious mutton. Pang Tianqing is not the kind of person who waits for good news but not bad news.

Hearing this, Zhang Hui swept the chopsticks in his hand and sighed silently.

He has been in Liaodong for several years and knows the meaning behind these words.

If there is little snow in winter, eight or nine out of ten on the grassland will be dry the following year.

That's not a question of fewer cattle and sheep being traded next year.

With the temperament of the wolves of the grasslands, once there is a great drought and lack of food, they will inevitably commit border raids.

Qia Pang Tianqing also said at this time: "The minister once wrote to Shen Hengyun and talked about this matter. The ministers and others were worried that once they felt that they could not get what they wanted from the horse market, they were afraid that they would fight again. ”

Zhang Hui sighed in his heart, of course, the border town is very important, but for the Ming Dynasty, which has Yang Yiqing guarding the border pass and powerful weapons and sharp weapons, it is impossible for the Tartars to take advantage of the border, he is not worried about the border pass, but about the DPRK and China.

As long as there is news that the Tartars have invaded the border, there will definitely be another war of words between the DPRK and China, and a large number of people will jump out and justifiably demand the closure of the horse market.

After clearing the forces of the Shanxi feudal domains and Liu Jin's party, before the princes of the court and the central government could react, the little emperor's people had quickly filled the vacancy on the side of the horse market and firmly held the horse market in their hands.

The border trade is so profitable, but the princes have not even touched the border, how can they be willing, naturally they have to mix and mix.

How could Zhang Hui let such a situation appear, not to mention how much effort they spent to make the horse market prosperous today, once the horse market was closed, the Tartars would have nowhere to get rice and cloth, and they would only intensify their looting, which would really be an endless trouble.

Putting down the chopsticks, Zhang Hui said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the horse market here, must not be shut down, on the contrary, we must continue to expand the trading category, not only let them sell horses, cattle and sheep, cowhides, wool and all kinds of useful to us - Shanxi martial arts over there is a use of cowhides in the ordnance research, I heard that this year's live cattle have become sauce beef, and the cowhides have been accepted by them, which is cheap." Shen Er's wool textile workshop is also in shape, he is now in Henan, and he is also going to build a workshop, which is close to Shanxi, and the wool is cheap......"

He said a lot, and Pang Tianqing just listened silently, observing Brother Shou's expression.

Brother Shou did not pause at all, he should eat meat and eat meat, he should drink soup and drink soup, and finally his mouth was free, so he lifted his eyelids and asked Pang Tianqing: "But someone proposed a candidate for the Northwest Prison Army?" Zhang Yong? Gu Dayong? ”

Pang Tianqing's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly said, "No." Not. After hesitating for a moment, he still said: "It's just that the old gentlemen of the cabinet also feel that the border pass should beware of the Tartars, and don't relax their vigilance because of the profit of the horse market." ”

Brother Shou suddenly burst into a smile and said, "If there are really Tartars who commit crimes, I will take the expedition in person, Zhang Er, I heard that Li Yanqing has a lot of new weapons over there, and he hasn't practiced yet?" ”

The two of them hurriedly stood up, knelt down and kowtowed together, and the emperor was absolutely impossible.

The battle of Tumubao left a profound lesson for the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming courtiers did not dare to forget it for a moment.

Especially now he loves to play more than the Ying Temple, and he has no brothers and no sons! There is really a case that no one will take this country!

The hot soup I drank just now turned into a cold sweat, wetting the clothes on the backs of the two of them.

Brother Shou disagreed, waved his hand, and said, "I'll just talk about it, if you really want to drive the expedition, you won't leave in a moment." ”

The two of them kneeling were about to lie on the ground, almost pleading: "The emperor thinks twice, don't do it." ”

Brother Dayoushou didn't give up this idea, and they knelt to death on the spot.

Brother Shou said helplessly: "That's it, I just don't say it." Aiqing, get up quickly. ”

Only then did the two get up, wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads, and re-seated.

Brother Shou lifted the chopsticks to wash the meat again, and said lightly: "Zhang Yong, you have to stay in Beijing and escort you." ”

Both of them had a tight scalp and got up again.

One bowed down and said, "Yes, the minister understands." ”

The other said: "The minister has decided to strengthen the guards of the Beijing Division." After a pause, he added in a low voice: "That one, every move, is under the monitoring of the Jinyi Guard." ”

Brother Shou couldn't help but smile sarcastically, and his tone dragged on, "Uncle I have a distant cousin." ”

In terms of generation, King Ning is the same generation as Xianmiao, and he is the uncle of Brother Shou, and his sons are all the uncles of Brother Shou.

The original person who chose this Taimiao Sixiang was because "the green palace is still empty", and he wanted to "choose a prince and a sage to be a sage, give birth to a holy son, and send back the feudal country" - that is, he wants to bring a son to the emperor, regardless of generation, he must always find a boy to come, and it is really impossible to find a cousin who is older than Brother Shou to introduce the holy son.

So Ning Wangfu sent this half-grown child to Beijing - this little boy is four at home, and he is only twelve years old this year, although he is a concubine, but because he is the youngest, he has the best birth and the sweetest mouth, and he is deeply loved by King Ning.

The little fourth son has not yet stepped into the capital, the rumors of the "heterochromatic dragon note" are flying all over the sky, and now that people have arrived, they are touted as "humility" and "filial piety".

When the king in the upper hall offered the 50,000 taels of silver, the fourth prince also said that he had not been sealed out of the cabinet (according to the usual clan, he asked for a knighthood in the fifteenth year of the clan. Out of the feudal domain is called "out of the cabinet"), so at home only according to the ranking, not even the name of the name, I want to ask the emperor to give the name.

Brother Shou and Yan Yuese smiled and accepted the 50,000 taels of silver, and ordered on the spot to start repairing the Hongde Hall in the spring of tomorrow, but they had a "little cousin uncle", and the name of the general was blocked.

A nephew gives a name to an uncle? Even though he is the Son of Heaven, there is no such rule!

Although he was frustrated in the palace, but the position was hanging in front, of course the fourth prince would not give up easily.

These days, he is relying on his young age, frequently walking around the princess's mansion in Beijing, and he is quite benevolent and eldest princess, Yongkang eldest princess and other blue eyes.

And beside Brother Shou, Qian Ning, Zang Xian and others have not been less windy and say good things about Ningfu, and there are also people in the court who have written to praise the little fourth son, and all kinds of etiquette that hints at the Taimiao Sixiang can be prepared.

Brother Shou watched coldly as this person jumped up and down, and the excerpts were all left in the middle, no matter who said anything, he always just laughed and didn't say anything.

At this time, in front of the two henchmen, Brother Shou sneered: "He also sent things to the Shouning Marquis Mansion and the Jianchang Marquis Mansion." ”

Although he didn't say anything, it was obvious that someone on the Queen Mother's side also said something to him.

Zhang Hui and Pang Tianqing both lowered their heads and couldn't answer.

In fact, it has not been a year or two since the Ning Mansion sent gifts to the home of the Chinese Wu Zhongchen, and the Chun'an Grand Princess Mansion and the British Mansion have also received them, and this year's festival gifts are particularly heavy.

Of course, these two mansions are the henchmen of the little emperor, and they have never deceived the emperor, and some of the things have also entered the emperor's inner treasury.

Brother Shou didn't mean to let them answer, he waved his chopsticks casually, and beckoned the two of them: "Why are you standing again?" Sit down, sit, eat, eat. ”

Zhang Hui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "In just three or two days, the people from Linzhang should arrive." ”

This is talking about the "rebellion" of Linzhang County King Zhu Housheng, auxiliary general Zhu Youxing and others are about to be escorted to Beijing.

From Henan to Beijing, the road was quite urgent, just to be in a hurry.

There is this rebellious vassal king poking there, and the one who jumps to his feet and shouts to find Taimiao Sixiang, the son of the clan vassal king, must also be quiet.

Brother Shou nodded slightly: "Shen Er has always stepped on a little." ”

Zhang Hui said with a smile: "Shen Er still has a trick, he is about to report to the emperor on his behalf to see if it is feasible." ”

Brother Shou pretended to raise his feet and wanted to kick, and scolded with a smile: "You still sell Guanzi, say it quickly!" This Shen Er, why don't you write a notebook! ”

Zhang Hui smiled: "It's not easy to write notes." Didn't he write a book before saying that the prince of Zhao was quite literate, no, this asked people to quickly send a bunch of his poems and articles, ready to be printed in his few bookstores, and sent them all over the capital. ”

Brother Shou was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "This Shen Er!" It's a shame that he can figure it out! ”

Immediately, he took great pains to show a pedantic appearance and said to Pang Tianqing: "Your Hanlin Academy will always have a poetry meeting to appreciate the plum blossoms and lanterns in the next year, so you can enjoy this new poetry collection." ”

Pang Tianqing smiled and said that he would recommend it to his colleagues and friends in the next few days.

As soon as this young talented Shizi's poetry collection came out, Shi Lin held it, and the twelve-year-old little hairy child who only knew "humility" and "filial piety" had to stand aside.

Hearing Brother Shou smiled: "This time there was an accident in Linzhang, although King Zhao was unfavorable, but it was rare for him to be loyal, understand the righteousness, not cover up the rebellion, and donate Lu rice to contribute to local disaster relief, build water conservancy, and build a school medical hall. When the poetry collection over there is sent out, I will give some things to the prince of Zhao Wang, and then increase the price of Zhao Wang Lumi. ”

Zhang Hui and Pang Tianqing glanced at each other, and they were all emperors and saints.

Yes, King Zhao's reputation as a virtuous king is also stable, and these achievements that benefit the people are taken out, and King Ning's "virtuous king" is not enough.

With such a sixteen-year-old prince of Zhao who has both ability and political integrity, Zhuyu, in front of him, who would close his eyes and shout blindly that the little prince of Ningfu is worthy of Taimiao Sixiang?!

"Shen Er really didn't disappoint me." Brother Shou smiled with satisfaction, and instructed Zhang Hui, "Go back and pick a few capable people to help Shen Rui." This time the Linzhang incident happened suddenly, we didn't expect it before, some things, Shen Rui's identity, in the end, is inappropriate, those people in the court have to be noisy, or Jinyiwei should do it safely. ”

Zhang Hui knew that Brother Shou was addicted to cleaning up the clan, and he didn't know which one he was worried about, there were really a lot of Henan clans, and Zonglu was also a thick rope around the neck of the finances.

If you want to clean up the clan, you have to choose a few people who are bold enough.

Zhang Hui was thinking about it here, and Brother Shou over there explained that the money, grain, and land confiscated by Linzhang were allocated for disaster relief, and if there was such a situation in the future, it would be handled in this way, but this was to use Pang Tianqing's mouth to ventilate the cabinet.

The emperor did not pull things into the inner treasury but benefited the locality, and the cabinet did not disagree.

Brother Shou asked Zhang Hui to urge Jiang Yan to go to Henan to meet Shen Rui quickly, and asked Pang Tianqing to use the channel of the eldest princess of Chun'an to send an oracle to Zhou Xian, this time he did a good job, he didn't have to leave Henan for the time being, he first cooperated with Shen Rui to pacify the "bandits" in Henan, and then he promised to come with a general soldier, hoping that Zhou Xian would cooperate well.

also asked Pang Tianqing to contact Shen Ruiduo to think of a countermeasure to the trade situation in Datong Mashi, and wrote a message and handed it to Yunyun.

The atmosphere at the banquet became more and more relaxed, and Brother Shou asked Zhang Hui while eating: "You Xiaowu's marriage is decided?" I heard a sentence from Youma that day, but you want to get married next year? ”

Zhang Hui said with a smile: "The minister's sister-in-law is also in a hurry, but the woman's family said that she wanted to keep her daughter for two more years, and she didn't want to urge her, and she also said that the minister would ask Shen Er if she changed the law." ”

At the beginning, the eldest princess of Chun'an was a matchmaker, and You Xuan and Sister Fu set up a family affair, and Brother Shou was also happy to see it, and he also appreciated things.

At that time, both of them were young, so they were not in a hurry to get married.

After Shandong opened the sea, Brother Shou put his henchman You Xuan in Tianjin Wei, and after several years of training, You Xuan was already able to take charge of himself.

In the first year, Sister Fu and her son were married, and the Youfu Horse Mansion began to frequently discuss marriage with Shen Ying's Mansion.

It's just that the Shen family cherishes their daughter and always wants to stay longer.

And this year, there was a rebellion by King Anhua, and then the fall of Liu Jin, and the court was in turmoil.

But in the turn of the year, You Xuan is twenty years old, how can the Horse Mansion not be anxious.

Brother Shou was overjoyed when he heard it, and said with emotion: "In the blink of an eye, Xiao Wu'er has also reached the age of looking forward to marrying a daughter-in-law!" You go and tell Shen Er that he will work hard, and when the situation in Henan improves next autumn, I will allow him to return to Beijing to send his sister out of the cabinet. ”

A house in Xianyifang, in a secret study

With a "snap", a book of poetry was smashed to the ground, and it was stepped on a few times.

However, the book was bound so tightly that it was not scattered, but the snow-white pages were trampled on to a mess.

Mr. Miao, the staff member of Ning Wangfu who stayed in Beijing to take charge, stood aside with his hands down, not daring to breathe, and his forehead was already covered with fine beads of sweat.

The man still couldn't understand his hatred, and overturned all the teapots and teacups on the table, and heard the crisp cracking sound, so he sat down panting, kicked the stool again, gritted his teeth and said: "The Shen family's children, dare to repeatedly bad the prince's good deeds, really looking for death!" ”

As he spoke, he glared at Mr. Miao and said, "You have been in Beijing for so many years, and you can't kill a little cub, let him get bigger and bigger, what do you eat!" ”

This is ugly, but Mr. Miao didn't dare to have the slightest dissatisfaction on his face, and said with sincere fear: "The student didn't expect that a little hairy child could come to this point......

The Mr. Xiao Li in front of him is the layman nephew of Li Tianli Zhenren, a first-class celebrity next to King Ning, who has won the trust of King Ning and was sent to assist the fourth son.

I heard that there are still some magical powers......

Mr. Miao can't afford to offend this person, and he doesn't dare to show it at all, but he really refuses to carry this black pot, because he said: "Back then, we mainly dealt with Zhang Yong and Wang Shouren...... This kid mainly stuck to the one above and was unusually promoted......"

Mr. Xiao Li sneered: "Zhang Yong let you get out of Beijing, what is the result, now that the scenery is back, and Liu Jin has been pulled out!" King, Shou, Ren! Do you dare to mention him?! He didn't move in Nanjing, and he has been against us all these years!! Miao Tongjiang, who the fuck are you?! ”

Mr. Miao wiped the sweat from his forehead and didn't dare to pick up the stubble.

Mr. Xiao Li slapped the table and said, "Exceptional promotion!" You should be him when he is promoted to the Secretary of General Affairs! Keep him! What's the matter, the fuck dared to come and steal the property of the palace, and you still kept him! It's up to him to go out of Beijing! ”

As he spoke, he kicked the dirty poetry book at Mr. Miao, "Let him do so many things!" ”

The book hit Mr. Miao's calf with a strong wind, and it hurt him so much that he staggered, but he didn't dare to say anything, his body trembled, and he explained: "The student has really arranged it, and he didn't want him to go in a hurry...... I didn't expect that he didn't leave Wen'an......"

Mr. Xiao Li laughed angrily, snorted, and roared: "He didn't leave Wen'an, he left Wu'an?!" ”

Mr. Miao's head hung lower, knowing that it was useless for Shen Rui to go to Wen'an County.

What kind of escort configuration is Shen Rui after he leaves Beijing, and what kind of combat power Gao Wenhu has, Mr. Xiao Li is so carefully arranged in Wu'an County, it is not a time to let Shen Rui and others be killed, Wen'an County is just a few small thieves, and they are not enough for people to stuff their teeth.

Because of the mention of Wu'an County, Mr. Xiao Li is also a nest fire.

He grabbed his head to earn this opportunity to keep the young master in Beijing, and he was ambitious and wanted to do a big career.

However, the young master is smart, but he is still far from a prodigy, and he can't take poetry, calligraphy and painting, and he doesn't have the capital to become famous.

He was thinking of making a good move to add another fire to the already burning Henan, which would not only mess up that person's country, but also take the opportunity to operate and gain some reputation for the young master.

How do you know that he killed a trip to bite the gold halfway, and the brutality surnamed Shen ruined his game of chess, not only forced him to hurriedly take the young master away from Henan without using many tricks, but also had the ability to turn this fire into a basin of water, splashed him with a cold heart, and added a lot of stumbling blocks to him!

He couldn't help but scold Zhu Youxing, "What a waste!" He can't even catch his face! It's worthy of being a ruffian! Then he scolded Yu Panzhong, the prefect of Zhangde Mansion, for not being useful.

looked at the poetry collection that was kicked away, and even fell over with an inkstone, scolding King Zhao: "This kind of wreckage dares to come out and pick up this ready-made cheap?!" Be a fucking spring and autumn dream! When he has his hands freed here, let him know that he knows that he knows how powerful! That location is not something that any cat or dog can imagine! ”

Mr. Xiao Li was powerful for a long time before he came out of his bad breath.

Looking at the layout of the surname Shen, I want to use this basin of water to extinguish the fire in Henan, hum, I want to be beautiful! So that he has a life to see the fire in Henan extinguished?!

"That is all rubbish." Mr. Li knocked on the table, "You have to find another batch of useful ones." ”

Mr. Miao responded with a bitter face, Mr. Xiao Li said easily, where is it so easy to raise a few imperial histories.

Moreover, he actually launched the imperial history to impeach Shen Rui, especially this time Shen Rui was bold and copied the Linzhang Palace, and some people in the court also wrote to impeach him for his wanton and reckless behavior that caused the instability of the sect, and Mr. Miao did not contribute to it.

It's just that the person surnamed Shen actually made the "rebellion" into ironclad evidence, and these evidences and testimonies were sent to the Beijing division very quickly, and he had the identity of a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, so those people had to shut up.

"That Zhang Wei is also a waste, he can't do a little thing, and he loses the prince's respect for him."

Hearing Mr. Xiao Li's words, Mr. Miao sighed in a low voice: "I wanted to borrow him to pick the Xie family, but it was smooth, but I didn't expect that person to get Shen Li back." I thought it was to let Shen Rui out, so I took Shen Li back, maybe it was also to prevent the Shen family. Shen Li is not in Huguang, which is also good for us. It's just that Shen Li is Zhang Wei's father-in-law in the end, and this time he came back, he was afraid that Zhang Wei would be unable to move. ”

He still has some friendship with Zhang Wei, and he doesn't want Zhang Wei to be worn by Mr. Xiao Li.

Mr. Xiao Li sneered and said, "Guarding against the Shen family? Give Shen Li a book to prevent the Shen family? Don't prevaricate with such words!

"Shen Li returned to Beijing, just in time, sent to the door with you, can't move Shen Rui, can't move Shen Li?

"Just try Zhang Wei's loyalty, this kid is shrewd, and he has the benefits of the prince, but he doesn't want to be loyal to the prince, hum, he has taken advantage of all the cheap things in the world."

Mr. Miao was taken aback, "This, this, at this time...... It's still the big thing of the little boy, if you do Shen Li, you will have extra branches......"

"Who said that Shen Li was going to be done now?! Idiot fool! Mr. Xiao Li couldn't wait to reach out and slap Mr. Miao, but unfortunately Mr. Miao stood far away from him.

He beckoned, and Mr. Miao stepped forward hard, but he grabbed the collar and pulled him closer, gritted his teeth and said, "Naturally, the matter of the little boy is the most important!" You have to think of something to let Shen Li contribute to our affairs! You let Zhang Wei go to ......"

After saying this, Mr. Miao's face was cloudy, and he did not immediately agree.

Mr. Xiao Li didn't urge, let go of his hand, leaned back on the chair leisurely, and said, "Of course, I didn't expect him to shout twice to make it happen." But it can not only be used by us, but also knock Shen Ruina, why not. The matter of the heavenly family, you have to point to the people of the heavenly family - the Zhang family has always been greedy for money, you have to give more gifts. ”

He sighed again and said: "Look, the same is the champion of the Shen family, look at Shen Li, and then look at Shen Jin, can the Zhang family not be angry?" Isn't that the time for you to do it? ”

Mr. Miao lowered his head and said: "The gate of the Zhang family is easy to enter, especially on the side of Jianchanghou, and those who come with money do not refuse." It's just that the Zhang family can't say anything in front of the emperor now, otherwise Shen Jin wouldn't be just the official he is now. ”

Mr. Xiao Li smiled and smacked his lips and said, "This discord is even more discordant." Then tell me, doesn't the Queen Mother want a filial child? There are filial children in front of you, and the unfilial ones have to be restrained a little? You have to guess the Queen Mother's thoughts. The words of the Queen Mother are sometimes more useful than anything else. ”

Mr. Miao hesitated slightly, he was not a fool, how could he not have thought of this, but with the presence of the emperor, Taimiao Sixiang is such a thing, it is not the turn of the queen mother to call the shots. If the queen mother doesn't listen to the queen mother's words, then it's useless......

Mr. Xiao Li said solemnly: "The line of the Zhang family cannot be broken no matter what, and some people have to know that we have close contacts with the Zhang family." Got it? ”

Mr. Miao is busy, and he has always done this, after all, he is the queen mother, and this banner is sometimes very good.

Speaking of the palace, Mr. Xiao Li asked again: "Did the two fools in the palace, Qian Ning and Zang Xian, lose their position?" It's useless to talk at all! In this palace, you have to find someone else. ”

He also regretted that when Liu Jin was there, he was still the best to speak, and the palace guards all relied on Liu Jin's words to cross the Ming Road. It's a pity that Liu Jin died too early, otherwise he wouldn't have worked so hard now.

Mr. Miao said: "Since Liu Jin fell, Qian Ning has also been a man with his tail between his legs, and he doesn't dare to talk more if he wants to. Zang Xian can still speak. The students are also looking for someone, in addition to Zhang Rui, Zhang Zhong, the imperial horse supervisor, has introduced another Zhang Xiong, and now he is being used in the celebrant supervisor. ”

Mr. Xiao Li's face, which had just shown a little smile, turned cold again, and he scolded: "You don't ask Zhang Zhong to speak, Zhang Zhong is still useful!" If you break him, how many heads do you have to pay? ”

After a pause, his tone softened slightly, "Before the East Factory was cleaned, the person was afraid that he wouldn't be able to use it, so Zhang Rui would let it go first, and told him to prick up his ears to listen to the news." The celebrant is good.

"Miao Kui is so old that he is about to enter the coffin, they will re-elect a prisoner, and ask your people to push Zhang Yong away and get Zhang Yong away.

"Zhang Yong's title is still unstable, and he also needs some military exploits to stabilize it, he is still familiar with the northwest, push it, he will go. Isn't that where the celebrant comes in handy? ”

Mr. Miao slandered in his heart, Zhang Yong had just taken charge of the celebrant supervisor, how could he give up at such a time? If you get the title, you get it, where is there any stable statement. And compared to the authority of the celebrant and the celebrant, the title is just an empty shelf, and it is nothing.

Thinking about it, he also made up his mind that he would never say it directly.

Hearing Mr. Xiao Li ask, "Where is Tianliangguan?" ”

Mr. Miao hurriedly said: "Those few people in charge have all set up the line, but the oil and salt of Liangzi did not enter the ...... that day."

Mr. Xiao Li has followed his Taoist uncle Li naturally since he was a child, and some of the methods of the monk and the Tao are very clear, and he sneered in his heart, but he didn't see the rabbit and didn't scatter the eagle.

But he put on a posture of a master outside the world, slanted at Mr. Miao, and said disdainfully: "I heard that it is a master of the Jindan faction, how can he take care of a layman like you." ”

Mr. Miao swallowed dryly and hung his head silently.

Mr. Xiao Li straightened the cuffs of his robe, and said slowly: "I have been entangled in mundane affairs for a few days in Beijing, and I have no time to spare, you go and prepare things, and I will meet this Taoist friend for a while." ”
