Since he had the backer of Xichang, Luo Qing's days of missionary work in the capital have been smooth and smooth.

Not to mention an official of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, even the Daxing County Yawanping County Ya and even the Shuntian Mansion Ya have never sent anyone to interfere with his and his sect members' actions. And Xu Xun seemed to have forgotten him as a person, and did not support him to do anything again. However, he gently and skillfully gained the awe of Luo Xiang Ma Yongcheng Wei Bin - even Wei Bin, who was unlucky enough to break his leg, finally became interested in his teachings, and came to him twice in three days to ask all kinds of questions, many of which were in this life and the next life.

With the support of these top people in the palace, although most of the civil officials do not believe in these, whether it is their family members or servants in the family, one believer can pull three or five people to believe in religion, and there are thousands of believers who gradually gather around him. Although most of them are low-level people, they are also wealthy businessmen, official eunuchs, and even nobles like Wei Bin, Luo Xiang, and Ma Yongcheng. The dreams and persistences that had been stuck in his heart since he abandoned everything and realized those teachings when he was young were finally being realized bit by bit, and he was naturally convinced that he would return to the vacuum home of his dreams in the future.

On this day, as usual, Luo Xiang and the three of them came together. The place where Luo Qing lived was no longer the mutton alley where dragons and snakes were mixed when he first arrived in the capital, but the three-entry mansion offered by a wealthy merchant in a quiet alley where merchants gathered in Dongcheng. He refused the servant sent by the other party, and did everything himself. On this day, after his son went to welcome Luo Xiang and the three of them in, he sighed one after another in the face of the three of them, and he knew that the incomparable scenery in the eyes of these three outsiders was frustrated.

He was not interested in the secrets in the palace, and he was even more reluctant to investigate, but he, a layman, could barely understand the court situation. At this moment, seeing Luo Xiang suddenly raise his head and look at him, he was already prepared accordingly.

"Luo Zu." For this person with the same surname who has a very high prestige among the people, Luo Xiang's mouth directly burst out of the names of the most devout believers, and his expression even changed from the previous casualness, but asked extremely seriously. "You know astronomy and geography, can you know what the trend of the world will be in the future?"

"Even if the god who can blame him is concerned, he is only afraid that he is powerless to deal with this kind of problem." Luo Qing certainly showed the "divine calculation" in front of the three of them under the instruction of Xu Xun. But he didn't intend to stir up any more maze at this juncture. Seeing Wei Bin and Ma Yongcheng glancing at each other, his face seemed to be a little annoyed, he pondered for a moment before he spoke, "I can only say this to the three of you. Just like my most devout disciples, we can see the brightest future, no matter what time it is. It's always easier to succeed single-mindedly than half-heartedly. ”

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were suddenly shocked. Especially when Luo Xiang thought that he had made such a stumbling block on Liu Jin, he only knew by looking at people's methods to Qiu Ju that if the truth was leaked, he would not end well. So, as if he had a sudden breakthrough in his heart, he said to Wei Bin and Ma Yongcheng: "Luo Zu is indeed a person who wakes up from his dreams, and he has come to this point." What's the use of us thinking nonsense? You know, the three of us only want a place to live, and we don't compete with him for power. He won't even let us go a bit, so what's the use of waging our tails now? ”

"That's right." Ma Yongcheng took a deep breath, and then said as if cheering himself up, "Besides, the emperor has made the Duke of Dingguo and the Marquis of Pingbei serve as the chief and deputy envoys of the big wedding, which shows that his favor is not fading." ”

"And when Baoding Mansion sent the news before, Lao Liu miscalculated the situation and said something in front of the emperor, didn't it make the emperor extremely angry? Although afterwards, Lao Liu Yizheng said sternly that the officials of the prefect of Baoding and the prefect of Qingyuan should be dismissed and punished for their crimes. The emperor was almost accurate, but the Marquis of Pingbei was well aware of the righteousness and admonished that changing the magistrates in the battle was not conducive to the suppression of the bandits, so they were saved. It can be seen that this time there was a move between the two, but it was still a big victory for Pingbei Hou. Wei Bin said this in one breath, and saw that Luo Qing had been sitting there as if he was an old monk. He simply regarded this place as a place for the three of them to discuss secretly on weekdays, "Even if Liu Jin wins Zhang Cai and Xu Xun loses Lin Han and Ye Guang, as long as the emperor's trust is still there, the situation on both sides is uncertain!" ”…,

"In that case, let's be single-minded!"

The three of them seemed to feel that they would be blessed by the gods when they made up their minds here, and stretched out their hands one after another, and when the three hands were tightly clasped, they glanced at each other, and Luo Xiangcai coughed dryly and said, "Luo Zu, thank you for your guidance today." The three of us didn't have anything else to offer, so we just got a piece of good white jade material before, and we turned around and asked someone to carve a lotus platform and send it. In the future, when you preach the scriptures and teachings to believers, you will be able to use them as well! ”

The three of them came to Luo Qing with a heavy heart, but when they left, they all showed relieved expressions. It's not that Luo Qing's words moved them, but although the three of them were hesitating, the bias in their hearts was very clear, and Luo Qing's words were at best just the last straw that broke the camel's back. However, of course, the people who followed quietly did not know this, only that these three nobles who had been restless and restless for the past few days had just sat in this small mansion, and they were immediately reborn as if they had changed as if they had changed people. When the news reached Liu Jin's ears, even he couldn't help but be stunned.

"The three of them have changed so much?" He pinched the handrail for a while, then rubbed the smooth wood texture, and after a while he opened his mouth and asked, "That Luo Qingke has carefully checked?" ”

"I've checked it, it's a magic stick!" At this moment, he knelt on the ground and raised his head and said categorically, "This person has been swaggering in the capital for several years, and there are thousands of believers under his door, and many of them have offered money. If it is allowed to continue to develop, it will inevitably cause great harm! Father-in-law, even Father-in-law Ma has already believed in it, how can I get it over time! ”

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but lick his lips lightly as he lowered his head. The people below reported that Luo Qing had received donations from many believers over the years, and as long as Luo Qing and his followers could be uprooted, the huge wealth would belong to him!

"Hmm......" Liu Jin hesitated for a moment, and then waved his hand and said, "Don't be busy first, now it's important to get the emperor's wedding done first, don't make any extraneous branches." You keep an eye on our family. Don't miss anyone who comes in and out, and when the time comes, we will naturally tell you. Only, if you dare to make your own decisions......"

Sensing the deep cold light in Liu Jin's eyes. The eunuch hurriedly kowtowed, and shouted as if swearing: "Of course, the little one is listening to the orders of Gonggong Liu, and he will never dare to act privately!" ”

"That's good, you step down!"

Even for the people of the capital, the wedding of the Son of Heaven is extremely rare. Most of the many sons of heaven in the Ming Dynasty had the experience of being a crown prince or a grandson, and they were already wives before they ascended the throne. After ascending to the throne, it is only a matter of carrying out a post-book procedure. The previous big wedding dates back to the time when the queen was abolished in the Chenghua period. However, when the queen entered the palace, the palace coincided with Wan Guifei covering the sky with one hand, and the ceremony system after the establishment was far less than the wedding in the Ying Temple during the orthodox period. Therefore, Zhu Houzhao's wedding is naturally the most concerned thing in the entire capital, from officials to the people.

On July 17, he sent the British Duke Zhang Mao to tell the world with a big wedding, and Cai Zhen, the captain of the horse, told the Taimiao.

July 20. The British Duke Zhang Mao was ordered to be the chief envoy, and Li Dongyang, the young master and the prince and the prince, was appointed as the deputy envoy to hold the festival and greet the famous ceremony.

On July 26, Zhu Hui, the Duke of Baoguo, was ordered to serve as a righteous envoy. Jiao Fang, Wang Weichong, deputy envoy, held the festival and performed the Nagina proclamation ceremony.

The grand occasion of this honor guard going to the queen's mother's house was empty for a while. And what people talk about the most is that it has been set to issue a book on August 11 to welcome the queen into the palace. This time, the principal and deputy envoys were originally the match of Xu Guangzuo, the Duke of Dingguo, and Xu Xun, the Marquis of Pingbei, a middle-aged and young man. The Dingguo Gong family made a fortune as a martyr, even if the late Dingguo Gong was really not a figure before, but now Xu Guangzuo is steady and steady, at least there is no bad comment in the government and the opposition, and no one has objected to this honor this time. As for Xu Xun...... Even in the DPRK, there are still many officials in the DPRK who are full of disdain and malice towards this young upstart who has risen like a comet, but knowing that the little emperor has a lot of trust in him, the opposition is naturally weak, and he can only focus on the fact that the chief and deputy envoys are all military attachés. …,

At last. It was Zhu Houzhao who reluctantly pulled among the civil officials and pointed to the first assistant Li Dongyang to personally go to be the deputy envoy of Fengying, which calmed down many discussions.

Such a most glorious thing for a courtier, even if Xu Xun regarded it as a chore, at this time, he had to reluctantly practice etiquette with those civil and military officials in Chaotian Palace twice, and he couldn't hold on to fainting as he watched someone around him. He had to sigh at the good muscles and bones he had experienced in the past few years. On this day, when he returned home from Chaotian Palace with a suit of clothes that were almost soaked with sweat, the first thing he did was to submerge himself in hot water, and when he heard the footsteps of someone coming in and opened his eyes to recognize Xu Liang, he smiled bitterly.

"Fortunately, Dad, you are now in a state of retirement, and when the time comes, you just need to salute as if it were the occasion, otherwise I am really worried that this Chaotian Palace will be tossed all day, and you will not be able to bear it."

"Your father and I are better than you! Fortunately, this is past the height of summer, otherwise you would have to shed your skin even if you don't die! ”

Xu Liang squatted down behind Xu Xun, and then said with emotion on his face: "Speaking of which, the emperor has the grace of knowing you, and it is our family who can have today's benefactor." I only hope that after the wedding, I can have more children and grandchildren, so that the country will be stable, and the world will naturally be peaceful! ”

"I hope so." Xu Xun buried his whole head in the water, and after a while, he poked his head out again, shook the water droplets on his head and face, and then said word by word, "Rather be a peaceful dog, not a chaotic person, if the world is in chaos, even if the family has a lot of wealth, it is often difficult to escape the ruin, let alone ordinary people." ”

"None of us have experienced war, but my father, your grandfather's generation, experienced the siege of the Tartars after the Tumubao Incident. Speaking of which, today's emperor is the same as the Ying Temple back then, he also ascended the throne at an early age, he is also a favorite of Da Jue, and he is also fond of riding and archery martial arts, and the worries of those civil officials are not untargeted, after all, there are examples of Ying Miao and Wang Zhen in front. Xun'er, you are the emperor's most trusted person, you must remember that now is the critical moment, and you can't make a wrong step. ”

Xu Xun never discussed those big things with Xu Liang, not because he couldn't trust his father, but because he instinctively hoped that Xu Liang, who had been hard for half his life, would live a more leisurely and comfortable life, and not live in deceit like him. However, at this moment, Xu Liang's words made him understand that although his father didn't care about anything, his heart was as bright as a mirror.

"Daddy......"

"Okay, you don't have to tell me about things outside, I don't understand your father." Xu Liang waved his hand with a smile without waiting for Xu Xun to finish speaking, and then said solemnly: "I just remind you that you are not alone, there is me behind you, your daughter-in-law and your daughter-in-law, and many people who rely on you to get promoted and get rich and enjoy glory and wealth, and many people who rely on you to show their ambitions." The reparation gifts sent by the Dingguo Mansion Shouning Hou Fu Ren and the eldest princess Mansion were piled up into a small mountain, you should have seen it, if it weren't for your confidence and really let them win the battle, things would have been different. And I heard that the elder Wang Ge in the cabinet can hardly help but want to be a minister, and you have to be prepared for all this. ”

"Dad, don't worry, I can save it."

Xu Liang saw that Xu Xun burst out these words categorically, he breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and left with a smile. Xu Xun leaned on the barrel and muttered for a while, until the water finally almost lost its temperature, and then he stood up naked, picked up a soft towel and dried the water droplets on his body, and then picked up one piece of clothing and put it on. When he walked out of the courtyard with his hair scattered, and watched the sunset come out of his mind, he saw Ah Bao running into the courtyard gate quickly. …,

"Young Master, Master Ye is here with Young Master Ye!"

"Invite them to the study."

When Xu Xun walked into the study, he saw the father and son of the Ye family standing up and saluting in filial piety clothes, he hurriedly stepped forward to personally help Ye Lu up, and pulled up Ye Yao, who was kneeling and kowtowing, and then said: "Since you are bent on guarding your father's tomb for three years, I can't stop you." There is also the grandson that your father said before, he sent people here, and I asked Bohu to take the test better, and after two years of teaching, he was sent to Guozijian, so he has a future. If it weren't for your father back then, and I wouldn't be where I am today, I would still be able to do this little thing! ”

Looking at Ye Yao, who was young but quite strong, Xu Xun suddenly felt a move in his heart. He is a halfway monk, and his ability to bow horses is also half-baked, and the first child is a girl, although Xu Liang is like a baby, but after all, he is not able to teach martial arts like boys. So thinking about it, he said: "In addition, leave Brother Yao in my house, after all, guarding the tomb is hard, don't be bitter to the child, since he is determined to take the martial arts, it is time to start in the past two years." ”

Ye Lu looked at Ye Yao, who was full of hesitation, and after struggling for a moment, he arched his hand and said, "That dog and my nephew will ask Master Hou!" (To be continued.)
