Night, British Mansion.

Since entering the Beijing camp, Zhang Weixian often lives there, and usually does not come back, today is a rare day of Mu Xiu, and Zhang Weixian also rarely comes back.

After the reunion dinner, Zhang Rong took his grandson to chat in the study and asked him about his affairs in Beijing, and the grandfather and grandson talked happily.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Weixian said: "Grandpa, Sun Hao of Xining Hou Mansion, I told my grandson something today, he said that his father handed over a few greeting stickers, but grandpa didn't see him. ”

Zhang Rong glanced at Zhang Weixian and asked, "What does he want to say?" ”

"Don't get me wrong, Grandpa, he just wants me to intercede!" Zhang Weixian hurriedly explained that it would be bad if his grandfather misunderstood Sun Hao and complained to himself.

"Xining Hou!" Zhang Rong sighed and said helplessly: "After all, it's too eye-catching, so I have repeatedly warned you, don't be too showy, don't be too ostentatious, of course, you still have to do more meritorious things." ”

"Our Zhang family is far from the point where the merit is high and the master is shocked, so you can let it go!"

After listening to his grandfather's words, Zhang Weixian looked helpless, he still has no merit, and he is now simply an inch. In the words of the emperor, he is just a gentleman who relies on the shadow of his ancestors.

It's not that he did it well, it's that he was born well, Zhang Weixian still remembers that when the emperor said "I'm the best one to be born", he almost didn't get stupid. Now that I think about it, I still feel quite warm and touching.

In the past, the emperor told himself that when you go out, you will miss the days in the school palace, and now I really miss the days in the school palace.

However, he couldn't refute his grandfather's words, Zhang Weixian said directly: "Grandpa, let's talk about the matter of the Hou Mansion in Xining!" Why can't you meet him? Could it be that something happened to the Marquis of Xining? ”

Zhang Rong said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the emperor wants to try them out." ”

"Who made the Marquis of Xining a relative of the emperor, different from other relatives?" Zhang Rong said this, and said with some schadenfreude: "Don't worry about them, it's not a big deal, it's really going to be something, grandpa won't care about it." ”

"It's not that you don't care, but it's not time yet, wait and see!"

Zhang Weixian was stunned for a moment, and asked a little uncertainly: "What happened?" ”

Glancing at his grandson, Zhang Rong said with a smile: "Then grandpa will tell you that this Dingxi Hou's wife, Qian, is a native of Hejian Mansion." Although the ancestors of the Qian family are not noble, they are scholarly and poetic. ”

"This Qian's grandfather used to be a governor, and he got acquainted with the Marquis of Xining at that time."

"The two of them get along well, and Xining Hou values this daughter of the Qian family. Although Xining Hou is a Hou Mansion, you also know that it is normal for these scholars to look down on the stinky problems of their bodies, and they also look down on us people. ”

"Fortunately, Xining Hou's grandson, who is now Xining Hou, reads well and is loved by Governor Qian, so this family business is here."

In order to show the importance of this marriage, the Xining Hou Mansion gave the Qian family 100,000 salt as a dowry, all of which were big introductions, which shows how satisfied the Xining Hou Mansion is with this marriage. Since then, the Qian family of Hejian Province has become the big salt merchant of Hejian Province. ”

"But people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants, this official salt is always sold for less money, and the profits must be shared to the Xining Hou Mansion, how can there be private salt fast!"

Zhang Weixian looked at his grandfather dumbfounded, and said hesitantly: "Grandpa, you mean that they sell smuggled salt?" ”

"The Marquis of Xining will not sell smuggled salt, but this Hejian Qian family is not necessarily." Zhang Rong said with a smile: "A few days ago, there was an imperial envoy named Cao Yikui who participated in a book, and the emperor asked him to check the private salt. ”

"I felt bad at the time, and when Qin Cha went to Hejian, I guessed that they were going to the Qian family."

"Now the Marquis of Xining can't sit still, obviously the Qin Cha is eyeing the Qian family, this matter is not appropriate to meddle now, we have to wait, wait to see what the emperor wants to do, and make a move before the emperor makes a move, it's not a wise man's doing!"

Zhang Weixian nodded, no wonder the Xining Hou Mansion handed over the greeting post several times, but his grandfather was nowhere to be seen.

Glancing at his grandfather with his beard on his face, with a smile on his face, and a look of Zhizhu in his hand, Zhang Weixian always felt so disobedient. Why does it look like an old fox, or the kind of cunning and cunning?

"Grandpa, then the Xining Marquis Mansion is also waiting?" Zhang Weixian thought about it, but still asked.

Zhang Rong glanced at his grandson and said with a smile: "Grandpa is very curious, what benefits did that kid from the Xining Hou family give you, let you help him like this, and come here to play grandpa's words?" ”

A little embarrassed to smile, Zhang Weixian smiled and said, "Grandpa, aren't we all honorable!" ”

"Didn't you kid really fall in love with that girl from the Song family?" Zhang Rong said with a smile: "Grandpa understands, this is what the boy of the Hou family in Xining told you, this is what the little girl of the Hou family in Xining told you." ”

"It's okay to let grandpa give an idea, let Xining Hou marry their girl, it's rare for my grandson to like it."

Zhang Weixian looked at his grandfather with black lines on his head, and said helplessly: "Grandpa! ”

"Okay, I won't tease you!" Zhang Rong said with a smile: "We can watch, the Xining Marquis Mansion is not good, in fact, if the emperor wants to dispose of the Xining Marquis Mansion, it will be troublesome." ”

"The most appropriate thing to do now in the Marquis of Xining is to enter the palace to find the emperor to confess."

"Tell me about the Zhou family, don't hide it, let the Zhou family also admit guilt, admit punishment and punishment, how the emperor will deal with it, then how to bear it." Zhang Rong stroked his beard and said: "If this is the case, although the Marquis of Xining Mansion will be punished, it will be in the emperor's heart in the future." ”

Zhang Weixian was stunned, he really didn't expect what his grandfather said, but is it really good to do this?

"As a courtier, what's wrong with asking the emperor to admit his mistakes? Can't put it down? Zhang Rong looked at Zhang Weixian's appearance, and said disdainfully: "Xungui's wealth is given by the emperor, and it is earned by the ancestors, a group of disdainful descendants want to save face, why don't you want to think about the bad things you did and lose the face of your ancestors." ”

"The Marquis of Xining Mansion is not only a noble, but also a relative of the emperor, and now the grandmother of the Marquis of Xining, that is Princess Xianning, the fourth daughter of Emperor Taizong, that is the daughter of Emperor Taizong and Empress Xu, and was later named the eldest princess."

"Where did the royal family wronged their Xining Marquis Mansion, what's wrong with asking the emperor for guilt? Don't say plead guilty, if the emperor asks you to die, you have to die. ”

"Besides, the law of the Ming Dynasty is not very clear, those who sell illicit salt will have a hundred rods and three years in prison, although there are also beheadings, but the Marquis of Xining went to plead guilty and pleaded guilty and pleaded guilty, I don't believe that the emperor will cut off his head."

"A bunch of losers who don't understand anything!" Speaking of this, Zhang Rong didn't like his grandson anymore, and dared to question your grandfather and me, you are tender!
