Chapter 112: We'll see

Fifty wicker boxes were neatly stacked in the yard. Although the wooden boxes were tightly covered and the wooden strips were still new, as soon as Zhang Hui entered the house, when he saw these boxes, he seemed to be able to smell the smell of patina, as if he could see the sneering smiling face of Zhu Yong, the prince of Chengguo, and as if he could see the gloating eyes of the younger generations.

"Damn!"

Zhang Hui clenched his fists tightly, and saw that several people in the courtyard were circling around these wicker boxes in a daze, as if he didn't know what to do, he suddenly became even more angry, and shook aside the housekeeper who greeted him with a smile on his face, and roared viciously at those people.

"Idiot, what are you doing here, don't pull these bulky guys away! If you don't leave, I'll keep these and send you monthly money! ”

Hearing this, a group of subordinates suddenly changed their faces and began to work hard. The Ming Dynasty only minted money in the Hongwu period, and later banned gold, silver and copper coins because of the use of treasure money, and there are really not many people who still have these money-making people. When the coins were minted, they were all scrap money and old copper, which was slightly more valuable than the depreciating treasure money. It's just a matter of decades of hard work, and the market price of the treasure banknote for one tael of silver will fall to ten treasure banknotes to exchange for one tael of silver, and this money is not much better. Moreover, although this treasure is cheap, at least it is convenient to store, wouldn't it be a big trouble to carry back such a large box?

Although the subordinates worked hard, the fire in Zhang Hui's heart still did not stop. Angrily walked through the front yard, and saw a few girls on the other side of the second gate probing their heads and looking, looking vaguely like the heads and faces in his wife's Mrs. Deng's room, he couldn't help but become more and more angry, and he stepped forward and kicked one over, and blew all the rest of the people away.

"Master, the third master has just arrived. Now I'm waiting for you in the small flower hall over there, you see ......"

"The third child is here?" Zhang Hui didn't care about the frightened and pale girl on the ground, turned around straight, and saw that the housekeeper was bent like a shrimp, he pondered for a moment and then sneered, "He is wishful thinking, I am rushing ahead of everything, and now I will pretend to be a good person again!" Hum. I'd like to see what he can say! ”

When Zhang Hui stepped into the small flower hall, he saw his brother Zhang Hui sitting on the chair with a blue satin back, drinking tea with a calm demeanor, and there was not even a serving girl next to him. Although his anger did not subside, he didn't want Zhang Xuan to see his angry appearance, so he shouted coldly behind him: "The third brother came here on purpose, you are such a hospitality?" ”

"Master, how dare you be a little one. It was the third master who said......"

"Second brother, I let those two girls go down." Zhang Xuan put down the teacup and stood up, stepped forward with a smile and arched his hand, looking at Zhang Hui's face, he had a plan in his heart. Then he said to the steward, "Our brother has something to say, go down, and I will call you when we have it." ”

Although he was a little dissatisfied with Zhang Xuan's orders on his behalf. But this couldn't match the big loss of face just over there, so Zhang Hui frowned slightly and sat down on the main seat. When he stretched out his hand to hold the tea habitually, he grabbed a vacancy, and then remembered that the people had been taken away by Zhang Xuan, and he was immediately even more annoyed.

"What is the matter with the third brother coming to me today?"

Zhang Xuan reversed the pomp and circumstance of the past in luxurious clothes, with only two attendants outside, and he was wearing a half-worn aqua blue robe, looking like an ordinary person. At this time, look at the second brother's dress. He narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I heard that the father and son of the Xiangfu Zhang family moved out of the British Mansion today, and now they have fulfilled your wish second brother." ”

It's okay not to mention it, but when he mentioned it, Zhang Huiden thought of the embarrassing scene over there today, and his fist clenched. Although he didn't want Zhang Xuan to see the joke, he couldn't bear it, and finally slapped it on the armrest and stood up angrily.

"I'm kind enough to congratulate them today. Who knew that they relied on the power of Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo. He neglected me! There is also Meng Jun of the Baoding Marquis family, relying on himself to be a marquis in the future. Now you dare not take me seriously! There are also the juniors of several marquis mansions, such as Ying Chengbo, who are more unruly than the other! The eldest brother and sister-in-law are blind, and the brothers and nephews don't want it, but they are angry with outsiders! ”

Zhang Xuan just asked tentatively, but he didn't expect to ask such a result, and he was also shocked. The eldest brother Zhang Fu is not at home now, and Mrs. Wang, the eldest sister-in-law, rarely cares about their affairs, so now he knows that Zhang Zhuo and Zhang Yue's father and son are going to move out of the British mansion, but he pretends not to know. But he never expected that the Meng family of the Hou Mansion of Baoding and the Zhang family of Xiangfu were related, and the juniors of the other Hou Mansion were not enough, but even a person like Zhu Yong, the Duke of Chengguo, would be present!

"The eldest brother is indeed too biased towards them, but it is just a few relatives from Kaifeng, and even Chengguo Gong has been pulled!" Sighing hypocritically, he immediately shook his head and said, "I heard that the eldest sister-in-law also killed a girl and locked up a concubine because someone in the family stole Zhang Yue's things, is this big move worth it?" ”

As soon as Zhang Hui heard this, his face was a little unnatural, and he changed the topic with a dry cough: "The eldest brother can't believe that my two brothers haven't been a day or two, he has a girl on his left and a concubine to take the house, and his knees are still empty all these years, and it's nothing to think about succeeding one." But we both have two sons now, so why does he have to find someone in the next room? He doesn't care about the sons of our brothers, but he's busy carrying those two, and I don't know who he fancies! ”

"Although Zhang Chao's martial arts are good, he has the courage and no strategy, if he were someone else, he would drill into a place like Jin Xiangwei that has no future? Fight the Wokos...... Even killing a thousand enemies may not be a great achievement! However, the emperor likes martial arts people, and he may really be inclined to him. But ......" Seeing that Zhang Hui pricked up his ears and listened carefully, Zhang Xuan smiled sadly, "There are no eyes on the battlefield, and besides, those Japanese robbers are extremely vicious, if they lack arms and legs, it is fine, but if they give their lives, ......"

"That's what the kid did for himself!"

gloating and bursting out with a sentence, Zhang Hui felt a lot better. Although there are a lot of princes and uncles of the Ming Dynasty, there are almost no left in the founding batch, and now the most outstanding ones are the heroes of Jingnan. Chengguo Gong Zhu Yonglu is 2,200 stones, Baoding Hou Mengying is only 1,200 stones, and the other Hou Bo is about the same, while his eldest brother Zhang Fu, the British Gong, is 3,000 stones! If the dukedom of such a country falls to his own son, then his future will also be greatly enhanced.

"However, the second brother should not underestimate Zhang Yue's kid."

Zhang Hui, who was on the rise, heard this at first glance, and suddenly felt like a basin of cold water was poured on his head. Glancing at his brother unhappily, he said angrily: "He's just a little talent, he can't fight and can't make contributions, so he will say a few nice words to stammering his eldest brother and sister-in-law, what great achievements can he have?" If it weren't for ......"

He forcibly intercepted the conversation, thinking that if the pioneer daughter Zhang Ke could be more angry, and Dou Shi won the kid, just the matter of the sable fur was enough to ruin the future of this kid for the rest of his life.

"Big brother, don't forget, he has seen the emperor and the emperor's grandson!" Zhang Xuan originally came prepared today, and listening to Zhang Hui's half-cut words, it just reflected a certain secret that he inquired about, so he said, "He is a student of Du Yishan in Hanlin Academy, who is Du Yishan?" That is Yang Shiqi's close friend, and he has a relationship with many officials in the East Palace, that kid is Yang Rong who met at Yang Shiqi's house, and the emperor's grandson! At present, the emperor values us meritorious children more than civil officials, what if we are replaced by the crown prince, what about the imperial grandson? ”

This clever bewitchment suddenly made Zhang Hui change his color, and then he forced a smile and said: "Third brother, you think too far, anyway, he will not inherit the British duke, even if he becomes an official of the six departments, don't you have to be respectful to us elders?" ”

"According to the general truth, this is true, but there is a saying called revenge for injustice, revenge for revenge."

Zhang Hui frowned at Zhang Hui's gloomy tone, and gradually felt a little inappropriate in his heart. He is not a kind person, even if he is a little dissatisfied with Zhang Fu, who is kindly reminded on weekdays, let alone an irrelevant junior. After sitting down, he tapped the armrest lightly with his knuckles, and after a long time asked, "Then what do you say?" ”

"Actually, it's very simple, although I use the imperial examination to get scribes, but this way is not the only place, isn't there a rule called recommendation? Cloth clothes can be recommended, let alone noble children? I think the East Palace should have a good impression of him, if you can arrange him in, even if you are a non-grade first, I am afraid that he will be willing. Second brother, since the eighth year of Yongle to the present, although this East Palace is a good place, the number of people who can be planted in it is too many to count. ”

"You mean ......"

Zhang Hui suddenly realized, and at the same time there was a hint of vigilance. On weekdays, I only see Zhang Xuan drifting with the crowd among the guards, but I didn't expect it to be such a bunch of ghost ideas. can think about it, he still needs the third child to come up with ideas now, so he can't care about so much, and hurriedly asks for details, how to do it, and so on. By the time he had finished his calculations, he only felt refreshed, and the fire in his stomach had long since disappeared.

Zhang Xuan, who was done, didn't want to stay longer, and before leaving, he didn't forget to instruct: "This matter should not be rushed, wait and talk about it for the time being." Isn't that kid going back to the exam? If you wait for him to take the test, you will be foolproof if you personally recommend him. The crown prince has never been close to the military ministers, but with such a son of our Zhang family, he must be happy. When the time comes, it will not be easy to make a small situation? ”

Zhang Hui sent Zhang Xuan to the gate with a smile on his face, and when he saw the people on the horse and leave, he pouted angrily. He personally recommended it? If something happens to this, the unsympathetic big brother will blame him, and in the end, he may have to be involved. Besides, what if Zhang Yueruo can't pass the exam?

He's not a pig, how can he be so stupid! It's still early, why does he give people instructions to make the group turn around, isn't there a sentence called walking and seeing?
