Chapter 728: Knock, scare
"Hehe......" In the Ming Palace in Nanjing, Chen Ming looked at a report sent by the national security, and his mouth let out an unconscious hehe.
"The Li family, the Gao family, is this to reach a strategic alliance?"
"Ningbo Ye's luck is really good."
Chen Ming himself didn't think that Li Hao didn't marry a wife, but he first had a concubine, a daughter of Ye Dezhong of the Ye family in Ningbo. At the same time, the eldest son of the Gao family, Chen Ming's eldest cousin Gao Yanjing, also accepted a daughter of the Ye family as a concubine.
Is this Ye family a blessing in disguise?
His family's posture fell, and Ye Dezhong himself went to prison, but the Ye family became a cheap in-law of the Li family and the Gao family. The Li family represents the queen, the Gao family represents the queen mother, and the Ye family will be the bridge between the Li family and the Gao family in the future.
If this new role is played well, the future of the Ye family will not only shine again, but also go to the next level. Put your own influence, really out of Ningbo, out of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
Of course, this Ye family jumped too fast. It seems that he wants to put aside all the bad luck and blows he received a while ago, and show his current scenery to people all over the world, whether it is the children of the Ye family in Nanjing or the children of the Ye family in Ningbo, they are jumping a little too much.
"Zhang Dayong."
"The slave is here."
"You send someone to greet Shuntianfu and ask them to strictly enforce the law and act according to the law." This is not a single Ye family. Maybe it's because of the dispatch of troops, many people in Nanjing City are jumping.
Chen Ming didn't want to see this scene.
From the perspective of the ruling class, this Ye family belongs to jumping up and down, swaggering through the market, and is a troublemaker who is restless and self-conscious.
For the traditional Chinese imperial power, they prefer that the whole world be a pool of stagnant water. In their eyes, only the people who are honest and do not say a word when they are wronged are called good citizens.
A guy like the Ye family who jumps around, fakes the tiger, and causes a bad impact on society, is definitely going to drag his feet!
It deserves to be slapped to death.
But Chen Ming obviously won't and won't shoot the Ye family right now.
Zhang Dayong hurriedly respected: "The slave and maid are ...... to receive the order."
Chen Ming didn't say anything, but just ordered leisurely: "By the way, go to Gaochang Houjia again, and let Gao Yanjing enter the palace." "Gao Changhou is the title that Chen Ming gave to his uncle Gao Peng in this life. Its name is the Turpan Political Office, and in the past it was a small country that existed in the Western Regions for hundreds of years. This is also Chen Ming's order to highlight the glory of the Gao family.
"The slave obeys." Zhang Dayong took the order and left.
After Chen Ming retreated from Zhang Dayong, it was time to eat. Chen Ming's dining is still relatively simple, but he is more persistent in the pursuit of taste. After so many years of eating good things, if you travel back to the 21st century, Chen Ming feels that he is also qualified to be a gourmet.
The food is not so oily, and the number of all kinds of meat, poultry and delicacies is gradually decreasing. Today, this time it comes up, that is, a clear soup cabbage, a clear soup tofu, a fried three, a fried spring bamboo shoots, and a shrimp roasted bean curd.
Chen Ming only ate a small bowl of rice, but he ate most of the soup.
After he drank a cup of tea and eliminated his food, Gao Yanjing entered the palace under the leadership of Zhang Dayong.
"Your Majesty!" Gao Yanjing saw Chen Ming and immediately bowed and saluted, "Long live my emperor." ”
Chen Ming looked at Gao Yanjing. The latter is about the same age as Chen Gang, and is nearly forty years old. He wears a military uniform, short hair, and a pair of high leather boots. It is estimated that he is more than 1.7 meters tall, with a square face and a very burly face. There is a black mole on the chin, and those eyes shine in the dark, making people feel rough and shrewd. is very different from his fourth eldest Gao Yanming. Gao Yanming's delicate life, with fine skin and tender meat, wearing a pair of crystal mirrors in his eyes, looks like a talent, a literati.
But Gao Yanjing is a member of the army, not a soldier, but from the logistics department.
"Come, give a seat."
Chen Ming's relationship with Gao Yanjing is not very close, because the age difference between the two sides is too great. This person is still a class that gets along better and more comfortably, Chen Ming was closest to Gao Yanming when he was a child, because they were close in age. A person who climbs a tree over a wall and picks up birds' eggs to catch fish, this has a 'common language', and of course there are feelings.
Do you want to say that Gao Yanming regretted it? Of course he regretted it. I regret that I missed a great opportunity and did not invest earlier. Even when Chen Ming didn't know, he was worried that the marquis hat on the old man's head would fall on the head of his fourth child in the future?
Of course, he will not show any of this in front of outsiders. The image of a good brother is more helpful to him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Gao Yanjing first thanked him, and then sat down respectfully on the seat. The Queen Mother prefers his eldest nephew.
"Gao Changhou is in good health?" Chen Ming asked.
"Your Majesty is blessed. My father's health has always been fine,......" Gao Yanjing replied immediately, and there was even some emotion in his eyes.
Chen Ming nodded, looking at it in his eyes, but said in his heart that Gao Yanjing's acting skills were still not up to par, a little jerky and contrived. Quickly skipping this topic, Chen Ming, the family affairs of the old Gao family, knew a little about it, and he didn't plan to ask any more.
Gao Changhou has prosperous children, four sons and two daughters, but the four brothers of the Gao family are all average, as far as Gao Yanjing in front of him is concerned, there are a lot of women in the family, only three of them laid eggs, and one of them is a daughter. The eldest son is married, but the youngest son is only two years old. The brothers of the Gao family are all like this, there are a bunch of women in the family, and there is still a foreign house outside, but the children are far less blessed than his father. Gao Yanjing has two sons, both of whom are considered many.
Chen Ming turned the topic to his children and asked Gao Yanjing not to worry. Just like he didn't have a hard time having children? But now?
and his father, who also used so many women at the beginning, but only left two sons behind. But then what? Six sons and several daughters popped up one after another. These are all tangible examples.
Gao Yanjing is not yet forty, he is not very old, is there still time?
Gao Yanjing was submissive, he only felt dizzy, why did the emperor call himself to talk about these things? Is the emperor idle and bored to talk about family life? Or do you want to talk to yourself?
Oh yes, the emperor finally said two words about economic development, talked about the industrial companies under the Gao family, and said two official words, what should be properly operated.
Nothing else, nothing else. Gao Yanjing was sent out of the palace in a daze.
He thought it was amazing.
Is it for this nonsense that the emperor dragged himself over? But Gao Yanjing weighed what Chen Ming said over and over again, and he didn't figure out anything.
But just when Gao Yanjing walked to the palace gate in a daze, the voice of the eunuch suddenly came from behind him.
"Lord Gao, the emperor heard that Lord Gao has just accepted another beautiful lady recently, and asked the slave to come and send a jade carving to celebrate."
The meaning of the jade carving is very auspicious, there is a grape and many bats, the meaning is obviously more children and more blessings. And Gao Yanjing thought of the identity of the little concubine, and then thought about the emperor's words, and the confusion finally dispersed, and he finally understood what the emperor said.
This time there is really something allegorical.
"The emperor is mentioning the Ye family, and he is also mentioning you." Gao Peng stroked his somewhat gray beard and said with squinted eyes. He has already retired, but not long ago Ren Meng also retired, and it was Gao Yanjing who went up.
After returning home, Gao Yanjing immediately told his father everything that had happened, Gao Pengqi immediately understood what Chen Ming meant, the Ye family was a little overdone, but the Ye family had just married the Gao family and the Li family, and it was impossible for the emperor to attack the Ye family at this time, which was equivalent to hitting the face of the Gao family and the Li family. So the emperor chose to knock on the side drum of the Gao family, and at the same time, he was also knocking on Gao Yanjing.
The deputy head of the logistics department. Although he didn't enter the left and right squire, he was also in a high position, so don't lose the position he finally sat in because of something fearless.
"You ask someone to look it up. What trouble has the Ye family been in these days? Sweep the tail clean. ”
Gao Yanjing naturally knew that he was cautious and cautious. Gao Pengqi felt that his eldest son was not a frivolous person, and he was most worried about the Ye family. Gao Pengqi suddenly regretted it in his heart at this time, why did he choose the Ye family as a bridge in the first place? It's only been a few days, and the Ye family has alarmed the emperor, and it's too unsuccessful.
It's just that the Li family wants to use the Ye family to promote that the eldest son of the emperor does not forget the old man, Gao Pengqi, who also had a friendship with the old man of the Ye family, Ye Xinzhi, thinking of the good of the old man, Gao Pengqi also agreed with the Li family's choice. But now, it's not a good choice.
Ye Xinzhi is not the current Ye family.
After coming out of the house, Gao Yanjing went to the office and sat for a while. Unlike a few months ago, when everyone was so busy that they didn't have time to go home, the logistics department is really much more relaxed now, and even Chen Quan comes over every day to walk around and go home.
Because I sent away a group of troops and immigrants to North America?
And another big man in the logistics department, Ren Meng, this is the old man of the Taishang imperial family, the emperor pulled him out of the position of the State Food Administration before, and then arranged him to the logistics department and hung up a deputy position. Not long ago, the emperor begged the emperor to make it clear that he was transferred to the internal affairs department and hung up an idle post, so he could retire with peace of mind. And the position left by Ren Meng was taken over by Gao Yanjing, and the two of them had their own place, and they were even happier than their little wives.
As soon as Gao Yanjing sat in the lobby of the office, more and more people came to say hello and inquire about it. Because Gao Yanjing was recruited into the palace by the emperor? Many people remember the matter of sending troops, and they want to get a letter from the top. When will the second North American dispatch be taken?
Until the end of work, there were still people who came to ask to see me. Gao Yanjing may have gone out to eat and drink with people in the past to keep in touch with each other. But today he didn't have the same mind, and said firmly: "Go home." ”
As soon as he stepped into the door of the mansion, Gao Jin, his personal attendant, immediately came over to wait, and said, "There are still guests over there who haven't left, Madame." ”
Gao Yanjing wanted to go back to the backyard to rest, but when he heard this, he turned around and went to the front study. After changing his clothes and washing, he asked Gao Jin, "Who is here today?" ”
Gao Jin is Gao Yanjing's personal entourage, and he stayed in the house so that he could contact Gao Yanjing at any time if there was anything. Now Gao Pengqi and his wife have not only stepped down from officialdom, but also from housekeeping rights. The big and small chores of Gaochang Houfu are all decided by Gao Yanjing's wife.
And Gao Yanjing is now the deputy director of the logistics department, so he can be a figure who can be handled. This time, the Gao family's high-character battalion was able to send the first batch of dispatch troops, which was completely Gao Yanjing's ability. Gao Jin reported the names and origins of the people who came, and Gao Yanjing heard a few familiar ones, and some unfamiliar ones, but none of them could be underestimated.
These people are also very much inquiring about North America.
Mu has a way, who let Gao Yanjing be in charge of shipping in the logistics department now.
When the tall grandmother heard that he was back, she hurriedly sent off the guests, and when she came over, she was drunk at the banquet with wine on her cheeks, and smiled before entering the door: "My lord, you can be regarded as back!" "Today's Gaochang Houfu is really lively. Gao Yanjing was summoned into the palace by the emperor, and many people rushed to the palace in anticipation of hearing some new news.
Gao Jin hurriedly stepped back and asked his master to speak. Gao Yanjing smiled and didn't get up, the tall grandmother turned the screen to see that he was still sitting there safely, and deliberately lowered her face and said: "People are entertaining those irrelevant people at home for you, and you won't come back to see me!" ”
Gao Yanjing made a smug face, "Isn't this because your master and I have face outside and can eat openly?" ”
The old husband and wife laughed a few words, and Gao Yanjing said to his wife sincerely: "It's really hard for you today." "It's not just this one, it is estimated that there will be no fewer people in the house in the next few days. To be honest now, no one believes that the emperor will specially summon him into the palace to talk about family affairs. He was too busy outside to come back, and she had to entertain a lot of people in the house.
"Haha, what's so tiring about this." The tall grandmother smiled, "They all begged us to come." I just sat and listened to their flattery, and I received a lot of good things! ”
She said it lightly, but there was that simplicity there. But whoever can come in, she must greet them well. Those people said a lot of flattering words, but the tall grandmother also had to say good things about them. After all, the people who can come to the door at this time will not be too weak in the high family.
It is true that the Gao family is a descendant, and it is true that they are the emperor's maternal uncle. But there are too many people surnamed Chen in this Nanjing city. However, there are many people surnamed Chen who are no longer in the city of Nanjing. Their status is by no means lower than that of Gao Yanjing, but the difference in authority makes their family unable to get any gossip.
So they could only keep their eyes on the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the Logistics Department. Gao Yanjing, who was in charge of shipping, was suddenly recruited into the palace by the emperor, so how could he not talk about one or two North Americas.
"Ye's little girl, you will also discipline it well in the future. Don't let her contact the Ye family frequently, and save the trouble of mixing our Gao family into the matter. ”
"Although the emperor is beating the Ye family with his hand today, why isn't he reminding us?"
"You will go to the next post to the Ye family tomorrow, the house is investigating the beginning and end of the Ye family, and I can give a letter tomorrow." The day after tomorrow, invite someone from the Ye family to visit the house. You tell him the news.
Scare and scare him, just say that the emperor is staring at them. ”
"In the matter of Ningbo at the beginning, even if the Ye family was a victim, the emperor would not feel very good about the Ye family. At least I wouldn't be completely indifferent to this. Let the Ye family be careful! ”
