Nothing was said all night.

Zhang Ning changed into new clothes, had breakfast, and waited in the study for half an hour, and Jia Xiaosi came to announce the decree. He was followed by a young eunuch of a similar age, holding a vermilion lacquer tray with a symbol of glory: a golden belt.

It is unknown whether the gold belt is made of pure gold, but it is golden and particularly absorbent.

After receiving the order, Zhang Ning took the vermilion lacquer tray, handed it to Lao Guan, and then quietly stuffed a purse over, and said, "Father-in-law, please take a seat." Serve tea. ”

"Our family has to go back to the palace to reinstate the decree." Jia Xiaosi weighed the weight of the purse, and smiled so hard that he couldn't see it, he couldn't imagine that Zhang Ning was upright, and it wasn't so out of tune as the rumors outside.

"My father-in-law is waiting by His Majesty's side, and he must be busy with many things." Zhang Ning dealt with it casually.

Jia Xiaosi already had the heart to make friends, although he didn't take a seat, he didn't pull his feet and left, and said: "Our family is not busy, but the prince is very strict, and our family doesn't dare to delay outside the palace for too long." ”

Zhang Ning's expression moved slightly, and he said deliberately: "The father-in-law said that the father-in-law is the father-in-law of the Dongchang factory?" ”

There are more internal eunuchs surnamed Wang, and the only ones who can have the special title of "Wang Gonggong" are the eunuch Bingbi and Wang Zhen, the prince of Dongchang Factory. Zhang Ning hadn't met this notorious eunuch yet, and when he saw Jia Xiaosi mention it, he couldn't help but ask more.

"Who else but him?"

In addition to being the Duke of Dongchang, he is also the enlightenment of His Majesty today, and the eunuch who approves the red for His Majesty. Alas, it is impossible for me to be half the height of the prince in my life. Jia Xiaosi sighed in his heart.

Zhang Ning saw that he had a look of looking up to the mountains, and finally managed to control the expression on his face, and the corners of his mouth did not twitch. Wang Zhen was the first authoritarian eunuch in the Ming Dynasty, the first eunuch to be autocratic, Jia Xiaosi was a little eunuch with great ambitions, and it is understandable to take him as an idol, the question is, do you know what your idol did eight years later?

"My father-in-law is always waiting by His Majesty's side, and he has to be controlled by him?" Zhang Ning motioned for Jia Xiaosi to sit again, and said, "It's rare for my father-in-law to come over, drink tea and leave." ”

This man talked with His Majesty for nearly an hour yesterday, and His Majesty kept him for dinner, which shows that the Holy Family is not shallow. It doesn't hurt to drink a cup of tea and say a few words. Jia Xiaosi thought about it and sat down.

He took a sip of tea, and waited for Qing'er to retreat before saying, "Why is it our family?" His Majesty was also disciplined by him from time to time. In the palace, he only received some rules in front of the Empress Dowager. ”

Zhang Ning said: "But why? ”

Jia Xiaosi looked left and right, there were only him and Zhang Ning in the hall, there was no third person, the doors and windows were open, and the girl was waiting under the corridor, presumably she couldn't hear the two of them talking clearly, but she didn't know if the wall had ears, so it was better to be careful. He said: "I am for Your Majesty and the country. ”

Isn't that the same as not saying? Seeing that he had concerns, Zhang Ning stopped asking and said, "My father-in-law has worked hard." ”

With such a big mountain on your head, you have to be cautious at any time, and you don't dare to make mistakes, how can you not work hard? Jia Xiaosi reluctantly said: "It should be." ”

After gossiping for a while, and after drinking a cup of tea, Jia Xiaosi got up to say goodbye. Zhang Ning sent it to the gate of the mansion, watched the carriage leave, turned inside, tied the gold belt, and left the mansion by car.

He was going to find Zhang Fu.

"Zhang Ning is here? Let him in. "Zhang Fu was surprised, this is too fast, right?

Zhang Ning followed the scribe to Zhang Fu's room where he handled official business, and saluted Zhang Fu, who was sitting behind the stacked desk: "I've seen Grandpa Guo." ”

"You kid can do it." Zhang Fu laughed, got up and walked to the table where he was entertaining guests, motioned for Zhang Ning to sit with him, and said, "Your strategy is well written, the old man has really lost his eyes this time." ”

Zhang Fu is not the first person in the court, and he is also one of the four most powerful courtiers, but he admits his mistakes and is very calm. Zhang Ning admired it in his heart and said: "Grandpa Guo praises falsely, and the kid is ashamed." ”

If he hadn't learned the topic from Zhu Qizhen in advance, he wouldn't have been able to write so well without three days to think. Of course, even if he starts to conceive after seeing the test questions, he advocates conquest rather than pacification, and this will not change.

"They didn't bother you, did they?"

"They" refers to the sons and daughters of the nobles.

Zhang Ning said: "No. ”

Since he came out of the palace yesterday, not a single noble child has come to provoke trouble. Zhang Ning got up and saluted again, and said, "Thank you, Grandpa Guo." ”

If you hadn't let out the news, it would be strange if they hadn't demolished Anxiangbo's Mansion.

The kid is very clever. Zhang Fu smiled and did not deny it.

The scribe stepped down from tea, and Zhang Ning said: "The kid really has something to ask for when he comes to the door today, and I ask Grandpa Guo not to blame." ”

"Oh? What do you think of asking the old man to help you with? As long as it is beneficial to the society and His Majesty, the old man will not shirk. "It's fast, won't you just find something for me to do after the list is revealed? Zhang Fu muttered in his heart, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"This matter is not only beneficial to the society and the royal family, but also a great joy." Zhang Ning didn't blush at all and said: "The kid has written to his father, asking the grandfather of the country to be the matchmaker, and asking to marry the county lord of Anding." ”

"Ahem, cough, cough......" Zhang Fu choked on the tea, coughed non-stop, and finally finished coughing, looked at Zhang Ning and said, "What did you just say?" ”

Zhang Ning said again.

"You ask to marry the county lord of Anding?" Zhang Fu said in a fluttering tone. Did he hear him right?

"Exactly, please also ask Grandpa Guo to fulfill it."

You really think of me. Zhang Fu was silent for a few moments and said, "Do you know how many people in the court asked the media to ask the county lord of Anding to marry, but they were all rejected by the empress dowager?" The Empress Dowager said that the county lord of Anding was still young, and she would be kept for a few more years. ”

As soon as the smart person heard it, he understood that this was the Empress Dowager's prevarication. In other words, the empress dowager has not taken a fancy to you, so it is impossible for the empress dowager to take a fancy to you.

Zhang Ning said: "The kid knows, so he brazenly begged in front of Grandpa Guo." The grandfather of the country is highly respected, and the empress dowager will definitely give you face, as long as you go to propose, the family affair will definitely be successful. ”

"How can I have such a big face?" Zhang Fu shook his head again and again, and said: "The Empress Dowager is determined to choose a good family for the lord of Anding, from character to family background, it is one in ten thousand, and no one can say it." ”

Whether you're dodging or not, I think you're dodging. Zhang Ning didn't speak, just looked at him.

Zhang Fu was looked at by him and stroked his beard, and after a while, he said: "Since the high-fives came first, the old man couldn't say anything, so he had to pull down this old face and take a trip." But if it doesn't work out, don't blame me, kid. ”

"As long as Grandpa Guo is dedicated to the matchmaker, the kid is naturally not to blame."

"What words? Could it be that the old man will still be hypocritical? "Boss Zhang Fu is not happy, he thinks of me as someone.

Zhang Ning got up and saluted, and said, "So, the kid is grateful." ”

Zhang Fu sat down to accept him, and sighed: "The old man is cocooning himself." "If I don't give you three high-fives, I'll definitely be able to do it.
