In the evening, the light snow turned into heavy snow, not only no less than yesterday's snow, but it seemed to be even bigger.

Moreover, she and Xiao Nier stood under the porch to enjoy the snow, looking at the pure white around them, and their mood seemed to be pure.

A servant came over with a poster, bowed down and said, "Young master, someone has come to visit you, see it or not." ”

Besides, I wondered in my heart, what kind of person is this, a visitor on a snowy day, and he is also persistent enough. In the past six months, I don't know how many people have refused to visit, and we have pursued the principle of keeping a low profile.

The capital is different from other places, no matter what, he is now an official person, some rules must be followed, and some etiquette must be more exquisite. Arranging a concierge to receive guests is the most important, it seems polite, but in fact it is a windbreaker.

Covering the title of a young genius, covering up his strange behavior with the madness of celebrities and gentlemen, all this is good in Jiangnan, but I am afraid it will not work in the capital.

Xiao Nier also wondered: "Hurry up and see who it is, there must be something important on this snowy day." You'd better see it, at least let the family come in and warm up before leaving. ”

He took the name card and looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's Second Brother Zhao, why is he me, just come in directly." ”

He tucked the name slip into his sleeve and walked to the gate to greet him.

When I came to the gatehouse, I saw Zhao Yang and Lu Hao rubbing their hands and stomping their feet there, and there were several Zhao Yang's family members standing next to them.

"Second brother, how can you learn to pretend, just come in directly." Besides, he laughed.

"I want to, but you're too dutiful as a porter, so I have to take out the name post, saying that it depends on whether you are at home and whether you are free. I have to follow the rules, too. Zhao Yang said with a bitter face.

Besides, he said strangely: "Then the last time you came, why didn't he stop you?" ”

Zhao Yang smiled: "The last time I came, your concierge was not there, so I came in directly." ”

When the porter heard this, he wanted to bite Zhao Yang a few times with hatred, didn't he give him eye medicine in front of him?

Besides, he said to the porter: "This is Second Master Zhao, as long as I am at home in the future, Second Master Zhao will come to the door, you don't need to tell me, just come in directly." ”

The porter resigned himself and went back to the little house in front of him.

"My lord, the villain hasn't come for the past two days, and he's going to do serious business with the second master." Lu Hao stepped forward and bowed.

"Well, since it was the second brother who called you, you don't need to tell me." Besides, wave your hand.

"What do I have nothing to do with him? I just remembered one thing, and asked him to run errands for me to find something, and it was a good fate, and I really found it. ”

Zhao Yanghe said as he walked, Lu Hao followed behind like a rough man and a puppy, like a thug.

"The second brother is here, why don't you come in directly?" Xiao Nier greeted her and smiled,

"I was stopped by your porter and couldn't get in." Zhao Yang said.

Besides, after telling what had just happened, several people laughed again.

Besides, life is now back to minimalist mode, in fact, he has two families in Nanjing, and the rules are very strict, especially in the Wucheng Hou Mansion, where the hierarchy is strict and the rules are strict, but he usually doesn't care about things, so he doesn't care much about these.

Hearing Zhao Yang's voice, Zhou Dingcheng, who had been meditating and meditating, came out, and after meeting the two of them, everyone sat down in the hall. After the servant served the tea, Xiao Nier went to the kitchen to arrange the wine and food for the banquet.

Besides, he narrowed his eyes and said: "On this snowy day, the second brother is not good at drinking and enjoying the snow at home, how can he be interested in coming to me." ”

"Of course there is. You said you didn't want people to see me coming to you, and I don't think anyone will come to you today, and it's just an opportunity for me. ”

"Important?" Besides, he asked with a frown, and he felt a hint of bad taste in Zhao Yang's tone.

"Haha, I'll talk about that later. You're going to have to treat us to a nice bar on this snowy day, and I've heard that you've been hiding a lot of wine that's been over 100 years old. ”

"More than a hundred years? One bottle or two bottles are still possible, but there is no more, and more than 20 years is guaranteed. ”

Besides, it's not good wine, but Zhou Dingcheng likes it, so he usually always collects fine wine through various relationships, anyway, he doesn't feel distressed at all about the silver, and in Jinyiwei's position, there is a ration of fine wine and tea every month, these wines are basically Zhou Dingcheng alone, Xiaojun sometimes comes over to drink, but he doesn't come often, especially these days, this guy doesn't know what he's busy with, and he doesn't show up at all.

Not long after, when the wine and food came up, Zhao Yang gave Lu Hao a look, and Lu Hao smiled and said: "Lord Zhou, let's go to another room and ask you for some boxing scriptures while drinking, I know that you don't pass on the six ears." ”

Zhou Dingcheng understood what Zhao Yang meant, rubbed his hands and took Lu Hao to another room, and the servants brought by Zhao Yang had already been arranged to drink in a side room.

"Second brother, why did you send him away, I think Lu Hao is still quite reliable." Besides, he asked.

"Well, there are some things that I'd rather be overdone than careless." Zhao Yang put away the consistent hippie smile on his face, and said with a straight face.

"What the hell is going on? Bad news from the palace? "Besides, I'm a little anxious.

Zhang Juzheng didn't send anyone to find him here, and there was no news coming, could it be that there was news from Wudinghou? These meritorious families are much better than ordinary ministers in terms of being well-informed, because they generally have inside lines in the palace.

"There's no news, that's what makes it scary. My father said, in a situation like you, the emperor should have expressed his position a long time ago, but the emperor seemed to have forgotten about it. So......" Zhao Yang said worriedly.

"So what? The emperor didn't say anything, at least he wanted to punish my family, and it was better. Xiao Nier happened to come over and said.

"My younger brother and sister don't know, according to the people around the emperor, these days, the emperor has been silent, he seems to have something in mind, and he seems to want to make a decision. You must know that these people can be said to be roundworms in the emperor's stomach, and they will understand what the emperor wants to do. Zhao Yang said.

"I believe that everyone in the palace is a human spirit." Besides, his expression was solemn, this was a matter of life and death, and it was related to the safety of his family.

"Those people said to my father, you may really be in big trouble this time, so it's best to step back in advance."

"Regression? What do you mean? ”

In addition, there are several explanations for regression, one is to arrange people to protect themselves in advance, such as Xu Jie, Zhang Juzheng and even Gao Gong, it is said that as long as these three people are willing to protect themselves, or even as long as Xu Jie, Zhang Juzheng is willing to protect themselves, the emperor can't do anything to himself, after all, Xu Jie is still the first assistant.

However, at present, he is an official of Jinyiwei and belongs to the emperor's private team, and the emperor can bypass the six ministries and the cabinet to place a person, and of course, he can also bypass the ministers of the outer court to punish a person. The key is why did the emperor do this?

If the emperor wants to punish him, there must be another reason, and it will never be because of a request for the opening of the sea ban. Zhang Juzheng once said that the emperor had his own plans for opening the sea ban, but he couldn't put it forward because of the ancestral training. Now that he has made a come, he has been impeached by the officials, and it is expected that the six ministries and even a certain scholar in the cabinet will ask for severe punishment.

Besides, he had already thought about it before he went to the book, and he was willing to take this risk, and it was the emperor's scheming that he gambled.

The only thing he didn't expect was that the emperor had a repetition and indecisiveness, so it was inevitable that he would have a lot of dreams at night.

According to his concept, the emperor will either take this opportunity to unite with Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, and other cabinet scholars to forcibly implement the sea ban and opening up, or in order to calm the anger of the Yanguan and even some ministers, he will adopt the method of Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai to punish him, and there should be no other situation.

Zhao Yang seemed to see some of the thoughts, and said with a smile: "You literati just like to think blindly, and I only mean the regression I mean, that is, to run away quickly." ”

"Escape?" Besides, he was surprised.

"Of course, if you don't run away, you will wait to be killed by the emperor." Zhao Yang made a pinch of the ant.

"Death? Why, just because he gave the emperor something...... What's going on......" Xiao Nier couldn't remember the word "soothing" for a moment.

"Solophobia." Zhao Yang reminded.

"Yes, Song Shu, just because he is such a Laoshzi, the emperor wants to fix him to death, why?" Xiao Nier screamed.

"Brother and sister, no one dares to ask why the emperor is doing things, he can do whatever he wants, and he doesn't need a reason." Zhao Yang said with a smile.

"The emperor can be unreasonable?" Xiao Nier exclaimed.

"This ...... The emperor is really capable, no one can do anything yet. Zhao Yang smiled, his reaction to Xiao Nier was not surprising, after all, there were really not many people who knew how the emperor did things.

Besides, he smiled, in the days when he was a trainee staff member for Zhang Juzheng, he deeply understood that the emperor can't do whatever he wants, most of the time, most things have to follow the rules, and he has to obey the resolutions of the ministers, especially the resolutions passed by the cabinet scholars, and the emperor generally will not reject them.

On the contrary, most of the time, the emperor is more constrained than the ministers of the foreign court, that is, he has to be more disciplined than the ministers.

The only exceptions are the inner court and the brocade guard, which belong to the emperor's private affairs and can be disposed of at will, and no one is allowed to interfere.

Besides, thinking of this, I can't help but feel a chill down my spine, the emperor appointed himself as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, wouldn't he deliberately transfer himself to the royal range, so that he could dispose of it arbitrarily, right?

If this is the case, it is not only not bad, but it is very bad, indicating that he may really be dying.

"But I still don't understand, why is it more serious than the emperor's statement if he doesn't express his position?" Xiao Nier listened to it for a long time, but she still couldn't understand the truth.

"There are two possibilities for the emperor not to express his position, one is that he didn't take this matter seriously, so he just pressed it down, and the other possibility is very bad."

"What is possible?" Besides, Xiao Nier asked in unison.

"The emperor may want to build a big prison."

"What?" Xiao Nier still didn't understand, but she was so frightened by the word "prison" that she almost fainted.

"Impossible!" Besides, it was called.
