When Fan Wenjing inquired where Zhou Zheng was, Zhou Zheng went home after drinking, took a bath, and played with the children in the yard.

Xiao Ke'er is almost two years old and can trot on the ground. This little guy is much smarter than his brother, and he can play around, and he is extremely good at talking.

Brother and sister, it's so good-looking, thank you, don't want it, give it to you...... It's just when you open your mouth, it's so sweet, and there's no one in the house who doesn't like him.

Zhou Zheng sat on the chair, holding herbal tea, watching the little guy having fun with his subordinates, glanced at Fu Bo, and said, "Fu Bo, you say, who is Ke'er like?" ”

Fu Bo was happy, stunned for a moment, and some couldn't answer.

The Zhou family, Zhou Qingli, is rigid and harsh; Zhou Fang inherited some of Zhou Qingli's somewhat stiff bookish temperament; Zhou Zheng is introverted, few words, and unsociable.

Ke'er's mother, Shangguan Qing is even more so, she cherishes words like gold before marriage, and she doesn't pay much attention to other things after marriage except for children.

Who did you learn from this little Ke'er?

Zhou Zheng also said it casually, smiled and continued to watch the little guy play in the yard.

At this moment, Sun Chuanting, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, entered the class room of Li Rixuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and handed over an official document.

Sun Chuanting said: "My lord, this is the assessment list inside and outside Beijing, involving four hundred and fifty-six people, and the examination department has already done it, please take a look." ”

Li Rixuan didn't dare to underestimate Sun Chuanting now, after all, he was Zhou Zheng's staff, he took it quietly, and looked at it with his eyes, and the corners of his eyes couldn't help shrinking.

In addition to the governors of the five northwestern provinces, political envoys, etc., most of them involved officials from Shandong, Tianjinwei, Liaodong, etc., about 160 people, all of whom entered Beijing, filled with various positions in the six ministries and nine temples, not to mention that they were promoted by two levels!

Li Rixuan was secretly shocked, even Yuanfu had never been like this before, didn't he care about Xibo this time?

Li Rixuan glanced at Sun Chuanting, and saw that he looked calm and calm, and felt a headache.

He didn't dare to agree, and he didn't dare not agree, the two big men above were at a delicate juncture, and one bad might have a huge change!

Li Rixuan's heart was heavy, and he pretended to look at it for a while before saying, "Okay, I know." ”

Sun Chuanting saw that Li Rixuan did not express his position, and he was not in a hurry, and said, "Yes, the lower official will retire." ”

Li Rixuan looked at Sun Chuanting's back and had a headache.

The performance of the Xibo family is getting stronger and stronger, not only the officials, the household department, and the military department are moving frequently, which is a clear seizure of power.

Li Rixuan looked at the list in his hand, his expression was solemn, he thought about it, he still got up with the list, and prepared to enter the cabinet to see Zhou Yanru.

When Li Rixuan entered the palace, Fan Wenjing finally found out where Zhou Zheng was and came to Zhou's mansion.

Under the eaves, Zhou Zheng was half-lying on the chair, looking at Fan Wenjing and said, "You mean, Yuanfu wants me to invite back?" ”

Before, Zhou Yanru had a meal with Zhou Zheng in the Champion Building, and the time did not pass too long.

Fan Wenjing looked respectful and said, "Zheng Xibo misunderstood, Yuanfu wants to discuss yesterday's events and future national politics with adults. ”

Zhou Zheng looked at him Fan Wenjing and said with a smile: "You can talk." Didn't I say it, it's business as usual, what I said to Motosuke still counts. ”

Without the 'Jinluan Palace', everything can still be as usual, how can it continue if there is one?

Fan Wenjing's heart swelled with all kinds of thoughts, and said: "Yuanfu is committed to reforming the Ming Dynasty and Zhongxing Sheji; Zheng Xibo also thinks the same, there is no conflict between the two adults, if they can support each other, they will definitely get twice the result with half the effort and benefit the people. ”

Zhou Zheng tilted his head, looked at him, and said, "I remember, you are a Jinshi of Chongzhen for five years, and you have been the head of the household department for a while. ”

Fan Wenjing bowed down and said, "Lao Zheng Xibo is concerned, indeed." ”

Zhou Zheng looked at him for a moment, laughed, and said, "Yuanfu has a good eye, Shanxi still lacks a person to participate in politics, do you want to go?" ”

Fan Wenjing's expression remained unchanged, and he bowed and said, "Lord Xie praises, Xia Guan only wants to do the current thing well." ”

"Not arrogant, not impatient, not bad."

Zhou Zheng stood up, looked at Xiao Ke'er, who was tired of playing in the yard and was walking here, and said, "I promised my son to take him out to play tomorrow, so let's do it, if Yuanfu is free tomorrow, let's go climb the mountain together." ”

"Climbing a mountain?" Fan Wenjing was stunned. He looked at Zhou Zheng, a little unable to understand his proposal.

Zhou Zheng turned to the west of the city and said, "I remember, there is a Miaofeng Mountain outside the city, and I will go there tomorrow." ”

Fan Wenjing couldn't guess, so he simply didn't guess, raised his hand and said, "Yes, the lower official went back and told Yuanfu." ”

Zhou Zheng hummed, watched Fan Wenjing leave, and looked up at the big sun overhead.

At this time, Fu Bo and Shangguan Qing stood inside the door and heard the conversation between the two clearly.

Both of them had expressions of concern.

Will they be able to negotiate this time?

When Fan Wenjing returned to the cabinet, Chen Yan and Li Rixuan had already arrived in the cabinet, standing in front of Zhou Yanru, reporting what happened today.

Zhou Yanru's brows furrowed into Sichuan characters, and his eyes were fierce and worried.

Zhou Zheng couldn't wait, his people had already started to move.

Chen Yan had to come out, looked at Zhou Yanru, and said uneasily: "My lord, Gao Hongtu is ready to borrow 10 million silver from Jiangnan through Zhou's ticket number, and he is starting to rectify the household department and the departments under his jurisdiction, and the chief officials of household registration, salt class, tea, Caoyun, iron, etc., have received orders......"

Li Rixuan said: "Yuanfu, then Sun Chuanting gave me a list of more than 200 people, all of whom are to be promoted, most of them are the descendants of Xibo for so many years, and they must be arranged in all departments such as the Six Ministries ......and Nine Temples."

Fan Wenjing listened, and his heart was secretly shocked.

With one hand in personnel and money and food in the other, it seems that Xibo does not want these two departments, but the influence of a slight move should not be underestimated, and it is no wonder that these two Shangshu can't sit still.

Zhou Yanru watched Fan Wenjing come in, waved his hand to the two hall officials, and said, "I know, you guys can go, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

Chen Yan wanted to retreat, but he was worried that the road behind him would be unstable, so he hesitated and asked, "Yuanfu, doesn't the emperor have a will yet?" ”

Zhu Cihong didn't give an order, and the case of 'Jinluan Palace's assassination has been dragged on and on.

Zhou Yanru was also worried about this matter, but it was not easy to enter the palace, and said: "I'll take the time to see Gonggong Li later, you can go." ”

Chen Yan was not at ease, but still raised his hand and said, "The next official retires." ”

Zhou Yanru watched the two of them leave, and looked at Fan Wenjing.

Fan Wenjing said: "Yuanfu, Zheng Xibo said that tomorrow I will take the child to climb the mountain, and I invite you to go with Miaofeng Mountain outside the city." ”

Zhou Yanru frowned and said, "Miaofeng Mountain? ”

Fan Wenjing said: "Yes, this is the original words of Zheng Xibo. ”

Zhou Yanru couldn't guess what Zhou Zheng was going to do, so he pondered for a moment and said, "You go with me tomorrow." ”

Fan Wenjing raised his hand and said, "Yes." ”

After Zhou Yanru finished talking about this, he was still uneasy and said: "I will enter the palace now, go to see Gonggong Li, and inquire about the emperor's attitude." ”
