Beijing.

Besides, he didn't fall asleep all night, Zhang Juzheng talked to him secretly before leaving in the middle of the night.

After Zhang Juzheng left, he couldn't fall asleep, and he couldn't meditate, so he simply called Zhou Dingcheng up, and the two sat and drank together.

After drinking for more than half an hour, Murong Yanran walked in quietly, didn't say anything, just drank with them, it seemed that she was also preoccupied.

In the early morning of the next day, the porter reported that someone came to visit, and after taking the post, the visitor was not an official, and he didn't know or hear of this person at all, so he asked Zhou Dingcheng to go out to have a look.

After Zhou Dingcheng went out to receive him, he learned that they were all neighbors, and he didn't have any dealings with each other, but now he knew that he was the commander of Gao Shengjinyiwei, so he took the initiative to ask to see him and give a thin gift, the purpose was to take care of the neighbors in the future.

Zhou Dingcheng replied that besides, he went to the court, and he would definitely visit Yunyun when he had time in the future, and sent these people away.

Besides, he just scratched his head after hearing it, he was actually an otaku, if Xiao Nier hadn't pulled him out to go shopping, or if he wanted to go out to find a store to do business, he would rather write and paint and read at home, and he didn't want to go anywhere, he didn't like to do things with friends, and he wasn't that interested in mingling with neighbors. This is a habit that the family has formed after years of hiding, and in Suzhou it is because of the practice of medicine that you have to deal with people.

After the neighbors left, a group of people came to visit, or Zhou Dingcheng went out to receive, and the result was to take the title deed to contribute, which is a major feature of the Ming Dynasty, the official land rent, so those who have land and a large number of real estate will find powerful officials as backers, called contributions, that is, to hang real estate under the name of an official, for protection, and then share the benefits with this official, with a good backer, you don't have to be squeezed by the government, and you can also be exempted from a part of the tax.

Besides, I've heard of this famous hall, and I don't know what exactly is going on, so I'm not interested in it anyway, so I let Zhou Dingcheng push it all away. If he wants to make money, he must do it with his own ideas, and he will never use this method to get money from the treasury.

Then, this piece of human teeth, that is, the traffickers who buy and sell Yahuan, came to visit one after another, wanting to introduce the beautiful Yahuan to the situation.

Then a group of various people came to the door one after another, and he was so annoyed that he simply told Zhou Dingcheng that unless it was a visit from Shuntianfu and the officials of the Six Ministries, he would be given back, saying that the last dynasty had not come back yet, and he himself hid in the study of the inner house.

Xiao Nier brought him a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Why are you so awkward, it's like squatting in prison." ”

Besides, he said: "Let me tell you, I might as well go to the prison for two days, so that at least my heart is steady, and now I feel that the whole person is hanging in the air, unable to reach the sky or the ground." ”

Besides, he was already mentally prepared to go to prison, and it was impossible to dare to go head-to-head with the Sermon of Taizu without paying a certain price. Of course, he also knew that the imperial court was always open to the nobles, the board was raised high, and finally fell gently, there would not be too heavy punishment, and it was estimated that the punishment for him was to be expelled from Beijing and returned to Nanjing to be supervised by the local government, if so, he also understood the emperor's thoughts.

Among the worst plans he made, he was put on death row, that is, the emperor really wanted to act in accordance with the Sermon of Taizu, and those who dared to modify the Sermon without permission would be punished as a great treacherous crime.

Even so, he believes that he will not really be executed, he still has a protective umbrella, Zhang Juzheng, the teacher, and Wei Guogong will not be able to watch it, and the Marquis Mansion will do its best to save him, and in the end it is estimated that it will be the end of exile on the frontier, if so, he will lose all hope for the emperor, and he will have to make other plans for the future, and he doesn't have to bother with the emperor.

However, none of these things happened, but what was obtained was Gao Sheng, it was indeed Gao Sheng, and the dynasty was shocked, and even Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng were silent and didn't dare to say much, let alone Xu Jie, but there was no reason for the emperor to do this.

Moreover, he held Xiao Nier's hand and sighed: "If everything can start all over again, I really want to walk with you all over the streets of Suzhou, step on every small bridge in Suzhou, hold your hand in the afterglow of the sunset, and walk to the end of life together." ”

Xiao Nier's eyes suddenly overflowed with tears, and she choked up: "What nonsense are you talking about, this is not a good thing, it is not a bad thing, you are really willing to be arrested yesterday, maybe you think too much, the emperor has no intention of harming you at all." ”

Besides, he nodded and smiled: "Perhaps, I am just too suspicious, I hope it is as you said." ”

Xiao Nier shook off his hand and said, "You better go out for a walk, what's the difference between staying at home like this and going to jail." ”

Besides, he suddenly remembered something, and said with a smile: "Yes, I will go to the command of the envoy to report to the Yamen today and go to work." Didn't the emperor let me be the commander, then I will make a name for him. ”

Xiao Nier said: "That's right, this is like the brother in the town." ”

Besides, shaking his head, he felt as if he had changed after entering Beijing, maybe people would always suffer from anxiety and persecution phobia under high pressure.

He has been under too much pressure in the past two days, especially Murong Yanran told him yesterday that the Qinwang faction is plotting a rebellion internally, which is absolutely unacceptable.

He asked people to find Zhou Dingcheng, saying that he was going to report to work in the yamen, and asked someone to arrange carriages and horses.

Murong Yanran knew his intentions, didn't say a word, and put on a veil.

"This kid pretends to be quite similar, and after being promoted, he seems to have suffered a lot of grievances, is he addicted to cheating girls? Catch who to deceive whom, and do this in your own home? The little girl was dissatisfied.

"He's not pretending, he's really unhappy, you don't know his situation." Murong Yanran explained.

"Why did he come to Beijing if he didn't like to be an official, he didn't have a good life in Nanjing, why didn't he come to Beijing to be an official?"

"You don't understand, he came to Beijing by force, not willingly, it was the emperor's father and son who forced him to go on the road." Murong Yanran sighed.

"Oh, it turns out that all this is true, I thought he was just cheating on the girls around him to like him, and he was addicted to acting." The little girl seemed to have an understanding.

Murong Yanran smiled, her apprentice is good at everything, but her life experience is similar to a blank piece of paper, and she has been following her for a few years, but she still often hands in blank papers in this class.

When Ji Chang heard that he was going out, he didn't dare to slack off, so he arranged a general banner with forty guards and two carriages on the road. On the first day of work, the scene must be solemn to show authority.

Besides, he took the first car with Zhou Dingcheng, and the second one was the second with Murong master and apprentice, the two cars were connected from end to end, and the front and rear were covered by the Jinyi guards, and the two guards at the front of the convoy held two signs, one on the Jinyi Guard, and the other on the command, in fact, there was no need for these guards to Jingjie, that is, as soon as these two signs came out, the ghosts were far away.

The Jinyi Weidu Command Envoy is in the Imperial City, next to the Six Ministries of Metropolitan Procuratorate and other institutions, and the Nanzhen Fu Division is next to the Command Envoy Division, which is an area where the central office is densely populated.

Besides, when they came to the palace gate of the imperial city, it was the Imperial Forest Army who guarded the palace gate, and they went in with the general flag and four guards, and the rest of the people were waiting outside.

To enter the Imperial City, you need to check the waist card, and Murong Yanran's master and apprentice don't have a waist card, so naturally they can't enter. However, they are more disgusted with this place of Jinyiwei, and they would rather not go in, anyway, this is the headquarters of Jinyiwei, and there will be no accidents if they go in.

Besides, as soon as he walked into the gate of the Jinyi Guard, two Jinyi Guard personnel came up to check, and hurriedly bowed down and saluted after seeing the newly issued seal: "It turned out that it was the commander of the situation, and I was offended." ”

Besides, looking at this piece of the temple, I don't know where the pedestrians are working, and after asking for clarification, I walked over.

Before he walked to the place where the pedestrians worked, the pedestrians had already walked out of a side hall, and when they saw the situation, they were startled at first, and then laughed and said: "Haha, why are you here, didn't you let you settle at home?" ”

Besides, he stepped forward and saluted, and then said with a smile: "What is there to place, everything is handled by someone, and I have nothing to do, so I should report as soon as possible, and I should do my best as soon as possible." ”

"Okay, sure enough, he is a loyal minister personally selected by the emperor." Road pavement.

Besides, I smiled secretly in my heart, when it comes to the level of the commander, which is not personally selected by the emperor, the cabinet can't recommend it, of course, generally speaking, the appointment of the commander still has to go through the ministry, the military department, and the cabinet, but this is just a procedure, and it has nothing to do with the grand purpose.

Moreover, this appointment directly skipped the ministry and the cabinet, but despite this, the procedures still had to be taken after that, but it was a make-up. For this matter, it is estimated that no scholar or scholar will be idle and have nothing to do with the emperor's lame legs, if someone really does this, not to mention the emperor, it is to openly argue with Zhang Juzheng.

"Come, come, everyone come to meet our new commander of the Jinyi Guard, Lord Yun Ming." Pedestrians did not invite them in, but shouted to the people who were watching.

"This is the commander-in-command appointed by the emperor, and he is too young, right?"

"yes, are you an adult?" One person felt that he was too young and wondered if he was a teenager.

"It's handsome and chic, but it doesn't have the domineering spirit of our Jinyiwei, why did the emperor choose such a person?"

"Don't talk nonsense, you dare to judge what the emperor appointed?"

People in the distance were whispering, and those who were closer were high-ranking officials, and they all gathered to greet them.

The pedestrians introduced them one by one, two of them were in command of the affairs, and they were the deputies of the pedestrians, who were considered to be the superiors of the way, and the rest were the commanders of the Jinyi Guard, thousands of households, hundreds of households, etc., all of whom were officials in the yamen, and those in the distance were all small officials who were not on the stage.

"Besides, the adults are the upstarts of this dynasty, and they will rely on the adults to take care of them in the future." A thousand households smiled and arched their hands.

"It's good to say, I am young and shallow, in and out of officialdom, I don't know everything, and I hope that the adults will take care of it in the future." Besides, he returned the salute.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, but the adults are Jane in the emperor's heart, not as good as us, I'm afraid that this brocade guard is gilded for adults, and it will be unspeakably expensive in the future." One of the conductors laughed
