Yang Junqing pretended to keep a straight face, "Hey, what are you talking about?" No brother? Then, he answered mysteriously, "I fancy it-Xiangji." ”

Yang Junyuan was stunned, as if he didn't react to what 'Xiangji' was, seeing Yang Junqing's smug face, he suddenly thought of it, and then shook his head and said, "That's not how it is." ”

"Isn't Nangong Dingkang the head of the family? Take our family as an example, can you still reverse your father's decision? Yang Junqing asked rhetorically.

"Fourth brother, you yourself said that Nangong Dingkang is an old fox, do you want to take him? Be careful not to be taken by him. Yang Junyuan no longer said this, but analyzed: "There are really not many people in Qian Bin's hands. In charge of North Korea and Northeast China is Lee Pei-hyun; Tatar and coastal areas are Zheng Shu, in fact, the coastal areas are basically in charge. I've heard you say that Lord Qian meant to change Zheng Shu's, but he hasn't changed it so far; The White Lotus Sect is separate from the Wei Dynasty Song; The other is the three people who monitor the hundred officials, Zhang Xi, Wang Wei, and Ruan Yongzhao. ”

"What do you want to do?" Yang Junqing frowned and asked.

"No. Fourth brother, you know. Yang Junyuan did not answer.

The two smiled tacitly.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door, "Is the fourth son here?" ”

Yang Junqing opened the door, and the shopkeeper of the ready-to-wear shop stood outside the door, holding a letter in his hand, "Fourth son, someone just sent it, hurry up." ”

Yang Junqing took it, glanced at it, was stunned, and closed the door casually. Yang Junyuan looked at him in the room, with doubts in his eyes.

Yang Junqing directly handed the letter to Yang Junyuan, frowned and said, "Something is wrong." Yang Junyuan took it, only to see the sentence in the letter: 'Return to the command post quickly, and be on call all day immediately'.

"...... this?" Yang Junyuan felt that this was unusual, and he had a faint guess in his heart, but he didn't dare to say it.

"I'll go first." After Yang Junqing finished speaking, he took the note and destroyed it, and then went out.

Yang Junyuan grabbed Yang Junqing with a nervous expression, "Fourth brother, if, I mean if, if the new emperor ascends the throne, for the Ming Dynasty, the biggest threat is the Tatar ......." ”

"Now the situation is unclear, don't talk nonsense." Yang Junqing's expression was serious, and then he added softly: "Actually, it's not very good for a long time. ”

"Fourth brother, if that's the case, your business must be put aside. Not only in the north, but everywhere can no longer be checked, in case of ......, it will affect the Jiangshan Sheji if you are not careful. Yang Junyuan reminded anxiously.

"That's what the cabinet should be worried about. Besides, I've been checking everything, stop now? The matter in the north ......, and Zheng Shu is in prison. He looked at Yang Junyuan and instructed, "Don't interfere in this matter, no one will go to tonight's appointment." You hurry home, if there is really a big event, your father and a few brothers can't take care of the family, you take care of everyone. I'll go first. ”

**********

Juzhengyuan is a restaurant in Beijing, not famous, not luxurious, but there are a few signature dishes that taste good.

Nangong Dingkang stepped on it, Guo Yi had already arrived, and it was Jiang Sunchen who was sitting and accompanied. It's just that I didn't expect that Guo Han, the household servant of the Guo family, would also attend.

"Brother Nangong, it's really punctual." Guo Yi's words were neither salty nor light, and there was a disdainful smile on his face.

Nangong Dingkang smiled, "I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with the roads in Beijing, so I'm not late." ”

Guo Han got up with a smile and said very politely: "It's okay, it's okay, it's early for us." As he spoke, he introduced Nangong Dingkang into the seat.

Guo Yi was a little unhappy when he saw his clan brother acting like this, but Jiang Sunchen kept laughing, his face full of embarrassment.

Nangong Dingkang sat down politely, and when he saw that there was still an empty seat, he knew that there were still people who hadn't arrived, so he didn't care, but asked Jiang Sunchen with a smile, "Why is the virtuous nephew in the capital?" Is Lingtang good? ”

Jiang Sunsin blushed instantly, not knowing how to answer, "This, this, I'm going back soon." My mother is all right at home, thank you Nangong Shibo. ”

"Shun Chen is my little friend, and it just so happened that he came to Beijing to buy some goods." Guo Han took over with a smile, "I heard that you know each other, so I called him to accompany him." ”

This is interesting, if he was called to accompany him temporarily, how could there be his signature in the letter? Nangong Dingkang smiled, I don't know if it was Guo Han or Jiang Shunchen: "My father has been mourned for less than three years, and this kind of entertainment occasion is not suitable." ”

Jiang Sunchen blushed and immediately got up, "Shibo, Shunchen knows his mistakes, he shouldn't be greedy for pleasure and forget the filial piety of the son of man." It seems that Jiang Sunchen didn't want to come in the first place, and Nangong Dingkang said that he just left. I only listened to him salute you, "Please forgive me, uncles, Shun Chen farewell." ”

Guo Han looked embarrassed, and then got up with a smile, "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have pulled Xiaoyou over." That's not you. ”

Jiang Sunchen was walking to the door, and the Guo family's servants hurriedly arrived, panting and anxiously saying to Guo Han: "Master, I just received an urgent letter from the household department, and I want the master to return to the yamen as soon as possible!" As he spoke, he handed the urgent mail to Guo Han.

Guo Han was stunned for a moment, and took a quick look, as if he thought of something, and his expression became nervous. Turning back to Nangong Dingkang, he said: "I'm sorry, Brother Nangong, there is an urgent matter in the yamen, Guo Mou will leave first, and please forgive me." He didn't explain anything more, and hurriedly left with his servant.

In the private room, Jiang Sunchen, Nangong Dingkang and Guo Yi, who were left without leaving.

Guo Yi had a sneer on his face, and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, "I'm not going to accompany you, Brother Nangong." He didn't look at him as he spoke, and went straight out.

In less than half a cup of tea, all the guests were gone. Nangong Dingkang was speechless, looked at Jiang Sunchen, who was still standing at the door awkwardly, and said with a smile: "It is estimated that the food here tastes bad." If the virtuous nephew is fine, why don't we change places? ”

Jiang Sunchen's face flushed, he thought for a while and nodded and asked, "Shibo, can you stay?" ”

"Yes. It's not far from here, go to my side? Nangong Dingkang felt that he seemed to be very nervous, and said with a smile.

"Good. Our house in Kyori was sometimes unoccupied, and it was troublesome to clean, so we happened to live in the same shop as Sebo. Jiang Sunsin lowered his head, and his words were not very smooth, as if he had not made up his mind.

Nangong Dingkang laughed, "Then let's go." ”

**********

It was indeed not far from the inn, and the two walked silently on the road for a quarter of an hour. However, this quarter of an hour makes it seem as if something big is about to happen. There was no one on the street, the lights of several brothels and theaters were turned off, and I saw a group of forbidden soldiers hurrying by.

When he arrived in the room, Nangong Dingkang beckoned Jiang Sunchen to sit down, ordered a few dishes, and booked an upper room for him by the way.

Jiang Sunchen blushed silently again, lowered his head and said to Nangong Dingkang that it was not.

Nangong Dingkang smiled and comforted: "Actually, it's nothing. Seeing your name, I'm just going to the capital, it's almost the New Year, and I'm going to go to relatives by the way. ”

"No, Shibo." Jiang Sunchen looked up even more embarrassed, and said apologetically: "Shibo, the Guo brothers, the little nephew don't know each other at all. ”

Nangong Dingkang didn't expect him to say this, and after waiting for a long time, Jiang Sunchen blushed and seemed to be unable to continue, so he had to guide: "Then why did you sign the letter?" ”

"This is someone who came to Chaocheng to look for my mother. Then, he took a letter and asked the little nephew to sign it. The little nephew saw that it was a letter from Yu Nangong Shi Bo to Beijing. Jiang Sunsin stopped again.

"That person is Guo Han?" Nangong Dingkang asked.

Jiang Sunchen shook his head, "I don't know." My mother said it might be someone from the imperial court, but she couldn't say it well. She doesn't seem to know each other. ”

"People from the court?" Nangong Dingkang didn't understand, he knew that there were not many people who knew Jiangdong, and Jiang never preached these when he was alive. Where did this so-called 'people from the imperial court' know that they had an old relationship with Master Jiang?

"What did that man talk about with Ling Tang?" Nangong Dingkang continued to ask.

Mother didn't say anything. It is only said that the people who came know their father very well, after all, their father has passed away, and if they talk about it, they will tarnish their father's reputation. Therefore, this fact is a last resort, and the mother must explain it clearly to Shibo, for fear that someone will be unfavorable to Shibo. Jiang Sunsin lowered his head, his face full of guilt.

After Nangong Dingkang heard what he said, he didn't have a clue in his heart. Today's Juzhengyuan appointment, the Guo brothers are just a companion, and the main owner is clearly not here, is it also the so-called 'people in the court'? Looking at this situation, it looks like there is an emergency.

"And, Shibo." Jiang Sunsin said with a tangled expression: "I arrived a day earlier than Shibo, and a friend told me that Jingli was unusual and asked me to go back quickly." Therefore, the little nephew is ready to leave as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow morning. Shibo, you—you should go early. ”

Nangong Dingkang was stunned, just now on the road, he had sensed a sudden tense atmosphere in Beijing, and hurriedly asked, "Why is it unusual?" ”

"Maybe, maybe, it's not good, it's just these two days, it's probably going to change." Jiang Sunchen hesitated for a long time, but he still said it, but the last three words were said very lightly.

Nangong Dingkang was stunned by him again.

Jiang Sunchen didn't look at him, Gu Zi said, "Early tomorrow morning, Shibo, let's go together." After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Nangong Dingkang's reply, but he was embarrassed again.

Nangong Dingkang looked at him and smiled: "Okay, no matter what the situation is tomorrow morning, as soon as the city gate opens, let's go out of the city first." ”

However, this unusual trace of the capital did not last until the city gate was opened. In the early hours of the morning, the bells began to echo throughout the capital, and for a long time, the entire capital was awakened. Nangong Dingkang opened the window, and the sky was far from bright, but there were more people with lanterns on the street, dressed in plain clothes, and rushed in the same direction. Not far away, a merchant and a servant of a mansion took down a red lantern and hung a white flag.

Is it ......? Nangong Dingkang was shocked. Sure enough, it didn't take long for the innkeeper to knock on Nangong Dingkang's door in plain clothes.

The shopkeeper looked sad and held a stack of documents in his hand, "This guest, I'm sorry to disturb me at this time." Just now, Shuntianfu issued a notice, and the saint died. Now the three major battalions have entered the city, and the capital is under martial law for seven days, and the city gate is closed for 27 days; Also treat the guests to start wearing vegetarian clothes today. Speaking, he handed a copy of the Chinese book to Nangong Dingkang, "This is the notice of the Shuntian Mansion, and the official has received it." ”

After saying that, the shopkeeper bowed and went to the other room to continue his previous actions.
