Li Zifeng is only fourteen years old this year and has not yet become a child.

The Yang family has a simple population, except for Yang Zhangde and his wife and two childless concubines, there are only a few Taoist priests living in the front yard.

However, after Li Qing'er of the Cao Guogong Mansion got married, she bought two rooms to marry, and someone in the family cleaned and purchased.

Yang Zhangde doesn't treat Ergouzi as an adult on weekdays, and people can't get in this backyard, but Ergouzi hasn't shied away yet.

Although Li Qing'er was born in the Cao State Mansion, since she was sensible, the Cao State Mansion began to decline.

The wall fell down and everyone pushed it, she didn't enjoy the glory of Cao Guogong's mansion, but she had to bear the drag of Cao's mansion.

Therefore, Li Qing'er, who has been cold-eyed since she was a child, does not have much arrogance, and she also knows how to observe words and feelings, and be a careless person.

She married Yang Zhangde, who was not good in name, from a high-ranking family to a small family. But in fact, the Cao Guogong Mansion is an empty shelf, but with Yang Zhangde, a powerful minister, life is better.

She has a noble status, is as beautiful as a flower, and can be a person. In the past four years, the Li family has given birth to a son and a daughter in a row, which has allowed Yang Zhangde to enjoy the warmth of the family.

And although Yang Zhangde is ruthless outside, he hurts this wife to the bone.

The husband and wife closed the door, it was really honey and oil.

For the second dog, Li Zifeng, the Li family also watched him grow up. Every time he was beaten, he always stopped him.

Because both of them are surnamed Li, the Li family also said that they would recognize Li Zifeng as their younger brother, but they were just different in generation, so they didn't mention this matter again.

Li Zifeng also has great respect for this teacher, and his dream is to find a woman like Shiniang as his wife in the future.

Ergouzi has lived in this family for two years, and was only arranged by Yang Zhangde to go to Yulin Weixue last year, but every ten years of vacation, he will take the initiative to come to this master's house to help.

He grew up with a few younger brothers and sisters at home, and when it comes to coaxing children, he is even better than Li.

He was very active again, holding the child up and down, wandering around the yard, pulling him around to play. Yang Zhangde's eldest son, Dabao, is his favorite brother.

When he came to the backyard, Dabao laughed happily when he saw Li Zifeng, and stumbled over to ask for a hug.

The nurse next to her was breastfeeding the little one, and she didn't shy away from seeing the second dog, but the second dog looked at it and her heart was beating like thunder, and she didn't dare to look at it again.

Li Shi was not as relaxed today as usual, and he was relieved to see Ergouzi. "Zifeng is here, take Dabao out to play, it's been a mess all morning, and nothing can be done."

Li Zifeng snorted and said, "There are a lot of people in the front yard, so I'll take Dabao to the backyard to play for a while." ”

Li smiled slightly. "Zifeng is really sensible......"

Dabao was taken out, and Li hurriedly went into the back room to change his clothes. But when I saw a box of all kinds of clothes, I didn't know which one to change.

"This piece is too plain, if His Highness thinks that my life is not good, and the husband annoys me, it will be self-defeating."

"This one is too fancy, and it is not dignified."

Eventually, she threw her clothes on the bed, and her heart was in turmoil.

Cao Guogong's mansion is not as good as a year, since Zhu Jixi, the king of Jin, was imprisoned on the high wall of Fengyang for murder three years ago, Zhu Jixi re-ascended to the position of the king of Jin, and the eldest sister also lost power.

Zhu Jixi was quite benevolent, and did not blame the eldest sister for Zhu Jixi's matter, gave the eldest sister's dowry, and gave some additional goods to let her return to Beijing.

Zhu Jixi may not be able to come out in this life, although the eldest sister still has a husband, it is no different from being a widow.

The most pitiful thing is that she didn't even give birth to a son and a half daughter, even if she has a son and a half daughter, she is also the little prince of the Zhu family, the little princess, and she can still get a salary.

Now this is alone, even if he has wealth and goods, he is just lonely.

Without the help of King Jin, the Duke of Cao Guo would have declined even more, and the situation of sitting on the mountain and eating empty mountains has not been opened.

Now, the hope of the whole family is on her, and she wants to rely on Xianggong, the celebrity in front of His Royal Highness Taisun, to pull the Duke of Cao Guo's mansion.

She is also surnamed Li, and she has the blood of the Li family, so she can't shirk this matter.

But the prime minister was relatively indifferent to this matter, and only promised to speak in front of His Highness, but he didn't have a letter.

On one side is her husband, and on the other side is the family, the weak woman of the Li family does not know what His Royal Highness is like, and she is afraid in her heart, which is really difficult.

At this time, Yang Zhangde came in from the outside and couldn't help laughing when he saw everything in the bedroom. "Your Highness cares about what you wear as a woman, as long as it's not rude. Greet it when you come, send it when you leave, just see two sides, can you use it so entangled? ”

Li's sad eyes were raised, and he said in a coquettish voice: "If the concubine pleads with the Cao Guo Mansion in front of His Royal Highness today, will the husband blame the concubine?" ”

Yang Zhangde was stunned for a moment, and his face stiffened. He frowned and looked at Li Shi for a while, then sighed and said, "I promised you to say it in front of His Highness, why are you doing this?" If you do this, you will only make His Highness think that the Cao Guo Mansion is restless, and it will not help. ”

Li lowered his head, and tears dripped down. "But the concubine is the daughter of the Li family after all......"

Yang Zhangde couldn't see Li like this the most, and his heart softened. Sitting next to her, he hugged her shoulders and said, "Since I promised you, isn't it okay to say Xiang for the Li family today?" What's more, although the Li family has lost power, they have been taking care of it in the past few years, where can they not live anymore? This is just to see that His Highness has returned, maybe a piece of the pie. ”

Li said softly: "Even if you go to that barbarian land to kill the enemy, it's better than being confined in the mansion!" The Li family has three rooms, more than 100 people up and down, and there are more than 30 adult males alone, all of whom have been trained from small horses, and they are confined in the house and waiting for death......"

Yang Zhangde's mind turned, he also knew more about Zhu Zhanji, and knew his heart. It would be a huge waste for him to have so many talents left there, and he knew what to say.

"Don't worry, I'll say it when I see Your Highness today."

Li smiled and stood up to bow down to him. "The concubine knows that it is difficult for her husband, but the concubine only has her husband to rely on, so she can only wronged her husband."

"No grievances, no grievances. Tonight, let me try something new. ”

In a word, Li blushed and buried his head in Yang Zhangde's arms. "The husband is not serious again."

Although the eunuchs came over early in the morning to prepare, it was not until almost noon that Zhu Zhanji arrived at the small courtyard of Yang Zhangde's house.

His car also alarmed the officials of Chang'anfang, and everyone envied Yang Zhangde's favor.

Although he is still only a four-rank commander, except for the Jinyi Guard's commander Saihazhi, several other commanders and pacification envoys have all been subdued by Yang Zhangde.

Whose posture is he relying on, not His Royal Highness Taisun?

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Sehazhi is just a person who doesn't care about anything, and now that he is old, he rarely even goes to Jinyiwei.

Taisun still let Saihazhi occupy this position, mainly because Yang Zhangde's qualifications are still a little weak. In two or three years at the latest, this brocade guard will start to be surnamed Yang.

There were not many people in the Yang family to greet them, except for Yang Zhangde with his wife and children, there were also people from Jinyiwei waiting to greet them.

The commander of the Jinyi Guard, who made Saihazhi tremble, also came over, and below him, he commanded two Tongzhi, two commanders, two pacification envoys, and fourteen thousands of households, and more than half of them came in Beijing.

Li Zifeng, in the name of Yang Zhangde's apprentice, was also able to mix in the crowd that greeted him, but what he didn't expect was that His Royal Highness still remembered him.

"When I saw you four years ago, I was a little kid with a snot, and now I've grown up."

Li Zifeng didn't expect His Highness to remember him at all, and he couldn't even speak for a while. Yang Zhangde looked at his stupid appearance and couldn't wait to beat him again.

However, when he saw that His Royal Highness still remembered this Li Zifeng, he felt that his hard work in the past few years had not been in vain, and he did the right thing by calling Li Zifeng over today.

Saihazhi is an old man in the Zhu Yuanzhang period, and during the Ji Gang period, he was the commander of Jinyiwei, and he has always been responsible for the organizational affairs of Jinyiwei.

Ji Gang went to Dongying, and he was pulled out to stabilize the situation, but he was almost seventy years old this year, and no one expected him to do anything.

"Your Highness also knows Ergouzi?"

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "That was before the Eastern Expedition to Dongying. At that time, he had a runny nose and was still a child, but he could know how to take care of his younger siblings without losing the style of his brother, so I still remember. ”

"These two dogs can also be regarded as half of our Jinyiwei......" He looked at Li Zifeng tremblingly and said with a smile: "Ergouzi, study hard in Yulinwei, and when you finish your studies, return to our Jinyiwei, and build our Jinyiwei into an iron army." ”

Li Zifeng clenched his fists and said: "Thanks to the care of His Royal Highness and all the adults, I, Li Zifeng, should work hard to learn and serve the Ming Dynasty." ”

After everyone finished visiting one by one, the Li family wanted to retreat with some disappointment, so many outsiders couldn't plead with His Highness at this time.

But Zhu Zhanji took the initiative to stop her. "How is Cao Guogong's health lately?"

Li hurriedly saluted and said: "My father is confined in the mansion and depressed, but it's a pity that he can't serve His Highness." ”

Li Jinglong is a great sinner of Emperor Jianwen, but he is a great hero of Zhu Di. Without his defeat, how could Zhu Di directly seize Ying Tianfu and ascend to the great treasure!

Just because he is the first person of the old Xungui, Zhu Di ascended the throne, and the new Xungui group wants to come out, so it is natural to beat him down.

Zhu Zhanji said: "Nowadays, this Nanzhou, Xizhou, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the Ming Dynasty wants to develop those lands, and it needs countless people. Instead of confinement in the house, it is better to change the environment to work for Daming. You go back and tell him, don't waste your martial arts, and after two years, let him go to Xizhou to serve the Ming Dynasty. ”

Li couldn't help but kneel on his knees and thanked, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace." ”

"Thank you so much to my imperial grandfather...... That's what he meant. Zhu Zhanji waved his hand and took the lead in entering the main house of the Yang family.

He doesn't need to be a good person for this kind of thing, even if he is a good person, he will put his name on Zhu Di, so that Zhu Di will be happier.

Zhu Zhanji sat down in the main house, and then let Saihazhi sit on his left hand, with only a tea table in between.

Respecting the elderly and caring for children has been promoted since the time of Zhu Yuanzhang.

All states and counties in Daming have established nursing homes and orphanages, which are to rely on the old and support the young.

When everyone sat down, except for Li Zifeng, who came in and sat behind the door, the room was full of people with brocade guards.

Zhu Zhanji saw the signal from Liu Wan at the door, and knew that he had sent unrelated people to leave, so he said: "Today, I took the opportunity to come to Yang Aiqing's house as a guest to meet everyone, which is also a long time ago." After the discipline gang, the authority of Jinyiwei was greatly restricted, not to hide the bow, but to give Jinyiwei a period of rest.

Although the Department of Information has been reused in recent years, the Department of Information is different from Jinyiwei, which mainly supervises officials, and the Department of Information pays more attention to people's livelihood. So don't worry that the Advisory Department will overlap with Jinyiwei and steal your jobs.

Ji Gang is a capable person, but he is too capable, too small to make meritorious contributions, and naturally makes a lot of mistakes. Jin Yiwei was able to stop crying at night a few years ago, which shows his murderous reputation. Naturally, there are some black sheep in this.

However, even Ji Gang was rescued, and now he is still arranged in Dongying, and now Ishimi Yinshan produces nearly 500,000 taels of silver a year, and he himself makes a lot of money. Ladies and gentlemen, how are I, Your Highness, doing? ”

No one dared to answer, and only Sehazhi could talk at this time. He clenched his fists and said: "Your Highness is benevolent and righteous, this is a well-known reputation, and the old man also feels the same way." In the past few years, no matter when, Jinyiwei's funds have never been lacking, and this alone can appreciate His Highness's love. ”

"I want the horses to run, and I want the horses not to eat grass, how can there be such a good thing? If you want Jinyiwei to play a role, you must have sufficient funds, and you can't let everyone go hungry to investigate the case. But it's too much......"

Everyone felt a pang in their hearts, knowing that the drama was coming. In the future, the development of Jinyiwei depends on what His Highness says below.

Zhu Zhanji took a sip of hot tea, and then said: "Affected by Ji Gang's departure, Jinyiwei's style has changed greatly in recent years, from a wolf to a docile dog, which makes Lone a little dissatisfied.

If Jinyiwei can't play a role, it's better to help the emperor's grandfather open the way every day, this matter is easy, and there is no need to take responsibility. But since Taizu expanded the power of Jinyiwei and granted you the right to investigate the case, to the emperor's grandfather, he has not let you collect the knife so far, but you yourself have not come out of the sheath, which makes Gu a little disappointed.

Of course, Lone also knows that you have practical difficulties. But tomorrow's court meeting will introduce new rules of deliberation, and at the same time, a new financial system will be implemented. That is to say, the funds of your Jinyiwei do not need to go to the household department every month in the future, nor do they need the emperor's special approval, and they can be directly received.

No one can jam your neck with funds, Jinyiwei is always a knife of the royal family, and can only be commanded by the royal family, and anyone else who wants to interfere with your actions has only one result, that is, kill! ”

Saihazhi couldn't help but shudder, looked at Zhu Zhanji's flat face, and didn't dare to say a word.

But in his heart, he couldn't help muttering: "Your Highness, you are only the grandson, not even the prince, let alone the emperor!" ”

(There is something to do, if you want to complete 12,000, you can only come to 10,000 first.) ）
