Luo Xiang and Liu Jin went to the banquet in the same car. Liu Jin Shou asked Zhengde to send Luo Xiang to the inner factory, after all, he was an old man who had served him for many years, so he looked at Luo Xiang and trotting Tang'er, Zhengde's anger had disappeared, and it was Liu Jin who came forward to ask for it, so he nodded and agreed.

When Luo Xiang arrived at the inner factory, he was really like a fish in water. The eunuchs sent by Liu Jin entered the palace since childhood, and they engaged in intrigue and slapping horses and beards in the ceremonial supervisors, letting them manage the industry, and they didn't understand anything.

The business of the inner factory is very large, it is not limited to transportation, but from this it has derived many businesses such as green houses, taverns, casinos, rice shops, cloth shops, etc., even if these great eunuchs have been out of tolerance, they are only good at squeezing silver from these industries, and it is not good to let them run it.

The reason why these businesses are doing well is that they take the road of internal factory transportation, the cost is low, and Yu Yong is good at financial management, low internal friction, and good management, and he will engage in some ways to make a signboard, and when it is handed over to them, he will leave a lot of debts on credit, and the internal management is not good. The only competitive advantage: the low cost of transport, which has been completely offset by the sudden increase in the 'natural wear and tear' of transport, has not yet surfaced.

In addition, the inner factory uses a new bookkeeping method designed by Yang Ling, they can't understand it, they only know where to open a few stores, how many goods (woe) they have entered, and how many princes and nobles have joined the gang (fire), and they feel that the business is doing well, how do they know many of them.

Luo Xiang often runs errands, and his knowledge is broader than them, plus this is an old man in the palace, so they just handed over the business that they couldn't understand at all to Luo Xiang. A large number of modern financial statements were handed over to Luo Xiang, and before Luo Xiang could see the doorway, he first moved the silver that Liu Yuma and Song Houye had invested in into his own pocket, purchased a large amount of generous gifts, and sent them to Liu Jin.

Liu Jin saw that he gave a very generous gift, and he was as obedient as his third grandson in front of him, and he was happy for a while, so he admired his face and let him sit in the same car with himself and go to the banquet together.

Luo Xiang sat in the corner of the car and said with a compliment: "My father-in-law is now the emperor's most trusted person, and a few of our gentlemen who served the prince in the past are very prosperous, thanks to the public's care." Speaking of which, Zhang Yonghe and Gu Dayong are a little ungrateful, if it weren't for the father-in-law who came forward and led us to the emperor to cry, we would have been killed by Liu Jian, Xie Qian and others, and now they have the ability, but they don't take your father-in-law in their eyes, which is really hateful. ”

Liu Jin smiled proudly and said reservedly: "Don't take our family in your eyes? So why does he Zhang Yong have a treat today? ”

Luo Xiang was surprised: "It's not Gao Feng? Yes! I see, hehe, Zhang Yong is willing to bow to you."

Liu Jin smiled silently.

The car drove to the front of the 'Baifengju', Ma Yongcheng, Gao Feng, Wei Bin and other five people were already waiting in front of the door, Liu Jin did not have the intimacy of the past buddies, and he was full of style, like meeting his subordinates on a mission, and he was full of officialdom. Except for Ma Yongcheng and Luo Xiang, who were desperately running errands for him, the other people were inevitably a little uncomfortable when they saw it, Liu Jin was completely unaware of this, and felt quite good about himself.

He didn't know that Zhang Yong listened to Yang Ling's persuasion, so he invited him to eat and drink with the last glimmer of hope to avoid a complete break, and thought that Zhang Yong was willing to bow to him and use it for him from then on. There was no need for anyone to persuade him, Liu Jin sat in the first place, looked around at everyone, and said with a slight smile: "In addition to being useful, the old brothers are all together, ah?" Hehe, Dayong is out now, he is the emperor of the soil in Jiangnan, this is the New Year, and he has no intention of sending him back to Beijing, and we are not the same heart, sit! Have a seat! ”

Liu Jin wanted to arouse everyone's jealousy of Gu Dayong and let them regard themselves as a way out, but when he heard these words in the ears of several other servants, he had a different taste. Gu Da used the interest? How did it work? People provoked a mutiny in Datong and caused a great disaster, but with Yang Ling protecting him, look at the people who are now mixed.

Look at yourself again, at the beginning, I overthrew Wang Yue and Fan Ting in the inner court, Liu Jian and Xie Qian in the outer court, and now the emperor has his own reward, and now except for Zhang Yong, who has been close to Yang Ling, he has not been deprived of his power, and the other old people have to ask Liu Jin for everything, and the power given by the emperor has basically been taken back by him.

Follow Yang Ling, people are really willing to let go of power, follow you Liu Gonggong, and the brothers sat down with sour water in their hearts. They are not good at stubble, but there is no way, they followed the wrong person at the beginning, and now they want to follow, and they are like immortals.

Liu Jin, I can't wait to grow a hundred and ten hands, mix everything with it, if you don't listen to him, he will squeeze out you, see your own intimacy, see you coldly, no matter what you say, I am against it, you are Li Taibai alive, I also said that you wrote limerick poems, if it is my person, even if it is a toad, I can boast of being a white swan. In the long run, except for Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong, the Eight Tigers have all become his Liu Jin's subordinates.

Everyone sat down one by one, Gao Feng hadn't spoken yet, Liu Jin had automatically regarded himself as the master and began to open up. He is like a patriarch, and he is very affectionate to everyone, but the tone is absolutely condescending, with a gifted attitude, even if it is eating and drinking, there is no room for the slightest doubt.

Gao Feng never found a chance to speak, so everyone had to eat and drink with a smile, until Liu Jin was happy to eat, stopped the cup and wiped his face with a handkerchief, Gao Feng held the cup with a smiling face, and said that he hoped that Liu Gonggong would raise his noble hand and not trouble the Zhang brothers. Several other tigers are also busy responding, and with so many people begging each other, Liu Jin will definitely be able to give everyone this face.

Unexpectedly, Liu Jin actually laughed when he heard it, he had already guessed the purpose of Gao Feng's invitation to wine today, and also thought about how to subdue Zhang Yong, thinking about it, he always felt that Zhang Yong's power was too great, and the difference was too much, this face was given, at most, the relationship between the two would be smoother in the future, and he still couldn't completely control him in his hands.

Now that even Yang Ling has been knocked down by himself, how can a tiger be allowed to sleep soundly next to the couch? What's more, there is still a Gu Dayong in Jiangnan, who is in charge of the maritime yamen that is hot in his eyes, and completely defeats Zhang Yong's chicken, so he can scare Gu Dayong's monkey, so he has made up his mind not to give face.

Liu Jin turned his face and said coldly: "It's almost the New Year, let's come over and have a drink with my brother, just talk about the old days, don't talk about business, spoil the scenery!" Well? The official position of the imperial court, how can it be granted to each other privately, Zhang Yong's brother and brother were originally just two hawkers, what ability can they be admitted to Jinyiwei as officials? ”

Zhang Yong is a donkey, and when he heard the fire, he couldn't suppress it, and slammed the table and said, "Liu Jin, don't be embarrassed!" Your eldest brother turned out to be just a tenant, but he first made a council in the Yamen, the political envoy of Shaanxi, and now you are active again, let him enter Beijing to be the governor of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, don't be our family doesn't know. My eldest brother knows how to read and write, and his brother knows martial arts, and he still has some skills, your eldest brother is almost sixty years old, and he can't read big words, and he will be the governor of Beijing! Gods may do what cattle may not? ”

Liu Jin sank his face and shouted: "Zhang Yong, don't be embarrassed!" Our family is thinking about the past, so we are polite to you, don't think that our family can't clean you up. Do you think that if you take refuge in Yang Ling as a watchdog, you can be obedient? Tell you, even Yang Ling is not in the eyes of our family now, don't be ignorant of current affairs."

Zhang Yong laughed angrily, jumped up and scolded: "You old dog! Wei Guogong has helped us, but people have never interfered in our family's affairs, no matter how powerful and powerful they are, but they have always really regarded our family as a friend. Watchdog? If our family kneels down and licks your toes today, then it will really become a watchdog, you Liu Jin's appetite is too big, you want to eat me? Beware of you to death! ”

Several other people hurriedly stood up to persuade the fight, and just pressed Zhang Yong down with a pull, "whew", Zhang Yong's face was covered with a white handkerchief, which startled everyone, turned his head and looked, Liu Jin on the opposite side jumped up, pointed at Zhang Yong and scolded: "Bastard thing, it's not the same as in the past, and I imagine that I was in the leopard garden at the beginning, can't I pour a glass of wine on you?" Kick the bastard on the nose and face! ”

Gao Feng and the others hurriedly went over to persuade him, but before they could go around the table, Zhang Yong broke free from Wei Bin and Qiu Ju who were pressing him, grabbed a silver wine jug and threw it over, and scolded viciously: "Lao Tzu is willing to cut his body, and he can't splash you old dog?" If you want to be Lao Tzu, you have to grow up the guy first! ”

"You!" Liu Jin was furious, dodged the wine jug in a flash, picked up the wine glass, chopsticks, plates and bowls and smashed it over with his face, Zhang Yongchang blushed and did not give in, while grabbing things and throwing them back, he scolded: "Today, Lao Tzu invites wine, and it gives you enough face." Don't be ashamed of your face, Lao Tzu just arranged his brothers in Jinyiwei, what can I do?

If you have the courage, let's go to the emperor and make it clear. Are you red-eyed? Aren't you in charge of the celebrants? It's better to get all the men from your Tan family (Liu Jin's surname is Tan) into the palace to be slaves, and the women into the palace to be maids, what a scene, a family reunion! ”

These words were too vicious, and they were stabbing Liu Jin in the sore spot, Liu Jin roared angrily and screamed: "Let it go!" Whoever stops me again, I'm in a hurry! "Saying that, to break free from everyone, you have to go over and fight hard.

Zhang Yong kicked open the chair, strode to the middle of the house, picked up the placket of his robe and stuffed it into his belt, brushed the ground and pierced a four-flat horse, and smiled at him with his teeth: "Come on, come on, if Lao Tzu doesn't beat you all over the ground to find teeth, I won't be surnamed Zhang!" ”

Liu Jin then woke up to the fact that people know kung fu, and it is only more embarrassing to really go up, but if he doesn't go up, he can't swallow this breath, at this moment Liu Jin's family ran in a few, Zhang Yongyi looked at it and scolded: "Do you have a group fight?" Come! ”

A few more rushed in from outside the door, all of them were officers and soldiers from the Beijing camp, and when they saw that the boss was fighting with others, these big-headed soldiers didn't care who the opponent was, and they pulled out their waist knives as soon as they brushed the ground.

Gao Feng was anxious, hurriedly ran to the middle, and said loudly: "I said Father-in-law Liu, Father-in-law Zhang, you are both masters, both are my masters, okay?" Can't we just talk calmly? It's not easy for the old brother to meet again! ”

Liu Jin didn't call anyone, those family members didn't come in to help, but there was urgent news to tell Liu Jin. It turned out that Liu Jin meddled in the salt law and issued an order prohibiting empty quotations and prohibiting smugglers. However, when the eunuch Chang Hao was ordered to go to Nanjing on business, he brought official salt as silver to buy weaving, and he also brought private salt to make a big profit.

When the news reached Liu Jin, Liu Jin and Chang Hao had no personal relationship, so they immediately sent someone to arrest Chang Hao, and beat the salt envoy who did not find out that Chang Hao was carrying illegal salt, and arrested Ning Qirun, the salt envoy who helped Chang Hao transport illegal salt, and took the opportunity to torture and collect the dirt, and cleaned their home, even the daughter of the salt envoy was sold, and the silver was put into his own pocket.

This storm of punishment and corruption really worked, and the salt transportation envoys from all over the country no longer dared to take this risk, but Liu Jin himself carried illegal salt and sold it in the name of transporting seafood. The method used is very strange, this sea thing must be kept not bad, and it must be sprinkled with some salt, but the problem is that Liu Daguan is a cart of salt symbolizing a fish, which is simply to take the salt patrol officials along the road to make fun.

But they just ran into a Qing official, the salt inspector found out more than a dozen truckloads of illegal salt and immediately ordered the confiscation, Liu Jin's house slave quietly showed Liu Jin's signboard, the salt inspector immediately opened his voice, for fear that others would not hear and scolded them for pretending to be Liu Gonggong's family, illegally prohibiting and trafficking in illegal salt, and ruining the reputation of Liu Gonggong in the inner court.

The salt inspector publicized the image of Liu Gonggong as a clean official who banned private salt and suppressed corruption, tore up the note written by Liu Jin on the spot, and then took back all these illegal salt dealers who did not dare to admit that they were Liu Jin's family and could not explain who they were. When have the people of the Liu family suffered this dumb loss, the most important thing is that if other officials all do this, then isn't the Liu family missing a way to make money?

Therefore, the person in charge of receiving salt did not wait for anyone to find it all the way, and immediately reported back to Beijing when he got the news. Trafficking in illicit salt more than a certain amount is to behead the head, the salt transport envoy has already reported the list of beheadings, one of the arrested people is the nephew of the fourth housekeeper, he got the news that he can't do it, so he didn't wait for Liu Jin to go home, so he hurried over.

Liu Jin was really furious when he heard this, more than a dozen truckloads of salt, mixed with sand and soil, how much did it have to be sold for? Zhang Yong, this kid is messing up, and a little salt patrol is also messing up, and there are many people who dare to argue with our family!

Liu Jin raised his eyebrows and said murderously: "Go, go to the household department immediately!" How much he swallowed me, I asked him to spit it out for me! And that thing that doesn't open his eyes, if he doesn't punish it, it will be against him! ”

Liu Jin's power is greater than Zhang Yong's, and it's not okay to fight! Not to mention that the factory guards have always been in front of him, even if they listen to him completely, those spies are not good at fighting, can they be the opponents of the officers and soldiers of the Beijing camp?

A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, it is better to stab him than to punch him, and it is not too late to make a move after seeing it, thinking of this, Liu Jin temporarily endured this evil breath, and sneered at Zhang Yong: "Move your fist? Moving your fists can't show our means! The surname is Zhang, and if you go against me Liu Jin, you can slowly accept it! I hope you can afford it! ”

After speaking, he flicked his sleeves and walked away. The rest of the tigers looked at each other, and they were a little angry in their hearts, no matter how they said it, everyone came forward to support each other, and Gonggong Liu was too arrogant now, and there was no one in his eyes at all.

Zhang Yong pulled the robe out of his belt, and after thinking about it, Mu Bin was once miserable by Liu Jin, and the envoy of Shaojie Wutangtang Beizhen Fusi was also imprisoned by Liu Jin, can he resist Liu Jin's oppression? Today's incident is so big, if my brother is really kicked out of Jinyiwei, then I don't have to mix it up in the future, and I will lose all my face.

He grinded in the house, and then waved to Gao Feng and the others, and said: "A few brothers are kind, Zhang Yongming remembers it, and today I am tired of following Zhang Yong to save face, is it Zhang Yong's." changed to Zhang Yong to set up a banquet again to make amends to the brothers. Our family and Liu Jin are incompatible, we can't wait for him to knock on the door, we have to do something at hand immediately, and our family has also said goodbye", saying Zhang Yong saluted again, turned around and strode out.

Gao Feng gasped angrily, sat back on the chair, thought about how embarrassing this peacemaker was, and couldn't help but slap the table angrily. Several other people couldn't help but sigh secretly, and also sat down on the chair, the cups and plates in the room were messy, and they were silent for a while.

Zhang Yong walked out of the gate, the snowflakes had already floated, he looked up and thought for a moment, got into the car and said, "Go!" Go to the military department! ”

Although Jin Yiwei has a single power and a transcendent status, the military system still belongs to the military department, he knows that Liu Yu is now vacillating between Yang Ling and Liu Jin, but Yang Yiqing is a person from Yang Ling's faction, if there is Yang Yiqing's support, then Mu Bin will be able to stabilize his position even more. It's not that he can't arrange another messenger for his brother, but whether he can let his brother stand in Jinyiwei now is related to whether his authority exists, no matter what, he has to fight with Liu Jin!

When Zhang Yong arrived at the military headquarters, he saw the tension at the gate, and the atmosphere was very tense. A well-built blue-clothed girl stood proudly alone in front of the gate of the military department with her hands behind her back, opposite a group of soldiers, holding knives and guns but not daring to take a step closer. There were nearly 100 people standing behind the girl, all dressed as ordinary people, but all of them were sturdy young men in their twenties, also holding knives and guns in their hands, and more than a dozen officers and soldiers were pressed down on the ground, and steel knives were pressed against their necks.

Zhang Yong was curious, what kind of person was so bold that he dared to go to the yamen of the military department to make trouble, Zhang Yong hurriedly asked someone to stop the sedan chair and leaned next to the stone lion. I saw a captain on the opposite side and said sharply: "You are so bold, you dare to collide with the official driver, aren't you afraid of killing your head?" Hurry up and tie your hands, or you will be killed! ”

The delicate girl on the opposite side said nonchalantly: "Crashing into the official driver? You kid made it clear to me that if you talk about officials, my officials are much bigger than his officials, and you dare to speak foul language to me, how unreasonable is this! I'm here to see General Wu, not to make trouble, is General Wu here? ”

The Wupin Xiao Cavalry Captain is not a big official in the Beijing Division, but the person she took down was Yang Yu, the leader of the Inner Jinyi Guard, with extremely high authority, how could that captain let her press Lord Yang to the ground like this, her cheeks were against the snow, and she was unspeakably embarrassed. The lieutenant said: "I have already sent someone to pass the gift, Lord Shilang will come out immediately, let go of Lord Yang quickly, you have made a monstrous disaster!" ”

Yang Yu is a person from Jinyiwei, this woman doesn't know who it is, she actually led more than 100 people to the military department, and she still has weapons in her hands, it is conceivable that Yang Yu can arrest them all in prison as long as she is charged with trying to rebel. Such a delicate and lovely woman, once she falls into the hands of Yang Yu, the evil scourge of lust and silver, you can imagine what kind of fate will be, the captain can't bear it, and can't help but sigh.

The girl smiled and said, "Okay, don't let me in, I'll wait for you adults to come out", she turned her eyes, and looked at Yang Yu, who was pressed to the ground and glared at her viciously: "You are also surnamed Yang?" Tut-tut, the same surname Yang, this official is far behind, and the character is even worse. Hum! What are you staring at, dare to be so rude to me, if you don't kill you, it's already cheap for you! ”

At this time, Yang Yiqing, the left attendant of the military department, hurriedly walked out, and heard that a woman led a hundred and ten people to surround the military department, he was also very curious, and led dozens of people at the moment, all of them with weapons, and when he went out, he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw such a situation: "Who is this woman you?" Don't you know the king's law? Dare to make trouble in front of the military department, detain the imperial court officials, and release Lord Yang quickly! ”

Zhang Yong saw him come out, so he stepped forward and said, "Lord Yang, our family is polite."

When Yang Yiqing saw Zhang Yong, he hurriedly said: "It turned out to be Father-in-law Zhang, polite and polite." Well, when the official has dealt with the matter, I will receive my father-in-law."

Zhang Yong said with a smile: "Hehe, Lord Yang, please take it, our family's affairs are not in a hurry."

The little girl in blue on the opposite side listened to the conversation between the two, her dark eyes rolled, and she said in surprise: "It's Lord Yang again?" Why are there so many adults surnamed Yang? ”

Yang Yiqing glanced at her, stepped forward and said, "Who is the girl, which Lord Yang do you want to see, why did you lead people to rush into the military department and detain Lord Yang Yu?" ”

The little girl in blue raised her eyebrows, and said arrogantly than him: "Which eye did you see me rushing into the military department?" No one is allowed to stand at the entrance of the military department, only some livestock? ”

Yang Yiqing was furious and shouted: "Bold! I don't know how thick the sky is! ”

The little girl in blue grinned, bent down and said, "Hehe, thank you for the compliment, and the other Lord Yang has also praised me like this." That Lord Yang is very knowledgeable, this girl humbly asked him for advice, and now she really knows how high the sky is and how thick it is, if you want to say how thick the sky is, do you know this Lord Yang? ”

This little girl has a pleasant smile, so that people can feel cute when they look at it, if it weren't for such a thing in the military department, Yang Yiqing really couldn't bear to punish her, he said funny and angry: "Arrogant little girl, this official is Yang Yiqing, the left attendant of the military department, why did you bring people to the military department to make trouble, and you also violated the ban with knives and guns, quickly explain it, otherwise this official will never allow you to leave." Well? You say Lord Yang, which Lord Yang? ”

The girl said: "Lord Yang Lingyang, he asked me to enter Beijing to serve in the army early, didn't I come to Beijing in a hurry?" The result is good, this girl arrived, the gate of the military department couldn't enter, and I ran into this bastard who was rude to this girl, and I didn't kill him, or for the sake of Lord Yang's face."

"Lord Yang Ling?" Yang Yiqing was stunned, he looked at this girl and the young people behind her with black faces and different dresses, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart: "Lord Yang, where did you recruit strange people, a woman, what kind of army did she let from?" Uh, it can't be some kind of affair and debt that Wei Guogong has provoked outside, right? ”

Thinking like this, Yang Yiqing's tone suddenly became cautious, and Yang Yu lay on the ground and struggled and scolded: "Little slut, you have neither a waist card nor a warrant, and you also entered the gate of the military department?" The official kindly asked a few words, and your people dared to knock the official to the ground, Lord Yang, you have to make the decision for the lower official! ”

Before he could finish the complaint, the trio of behead-cutting people with itchy hands hit him a few times with the handle of the knife, and he hurriedly shut up hatefully.

Yang Yu came to the military department today to run the official coming, approaching the New Year, the six departments have been sealed, but Yang Yiqing did not bring his family into Beijing, he lived in the small courtyard where Liu Daxia lived, with the military department as his home, Yang Yu's eyes were hot by Zhang Yong's brother occupied by the position of commander, calculating that Yang Yiqing has always had no good impression of the eunuch, he has the same surname as him, and he was a family five hundred years ago, so he brought a gift, and wanted to continue to put pressure on Jinyiwei through the activities of the military department.

Unexpectedly, Yang Yiqing blindly prevaricated, the two of them pulled the skin for a long time, Yang Yu did not get the promised permission, and did not get the news of refusal, Yang Yiqing only relied on a fortune, there was no other way to get money, and he was worried that the New Year would not be good, so he accepted this gift honestly and unceremoniously.

After receiving the gift but not doing anything, Yang Yu was depressed, he resigned from the military department in a huff, and saw a sweet and handsome girl with a few people talking at the door. Yang Yu has always been lustful, this woman is pretty, and her style has a unique charm compared with the woman in Beijing, and the pervert provoked Yinxin again, and she couldn't help but laugh at Yinyin's step forward to call "little lady" and pull the relationship.

Song Xiaoai was angry when she saw his cheap look, Yang Yu had always been used to being domineering, seeing this girl's coarse blue robe, she didn't look like a girl from a big family, she didn't bother to ask her identity at all, and thought it was the daughter or sister of a big-headed soldier, and both sides didn't ask about the identity of the other party, and his paws touched the fragrant shoulders of other girls.

Song Xiaoai is the head of Lan Zhuang, in the eyes of the Zhuang family, the princess is the king, as soon as they saw the leader being humiliated, the little girl was angry again, they immediately rushed up, showed their blades, and arrested Yang Yu and a few of his subordinates. Seeing this, the officers and soldiers at the gate stepped forward to help, but this time it was broken, and a shout was issued across the street, rushing out of the hundred and ten people, which frightened these officers and soldiers, and quickly retreated to the door, and called someone to inform Yang Yiqing that he had gone.

Yang Yiqing has heard of Yang Yu's reputation, this kid is lustful, but he is not good at Qinglou Hongji, he likes to seduce women from good families. I like to flirt with big girls and little daughters-in-law, if there is a beautiful little widow, I am even more salivating, what this girl said is true. He looked at Yang Yu and said in his heart: "If this girl is really Wei Guogong's sweetheart, I'm afraid you will be beaten in vain." But then again, you deserve to be beaten."

Yang Yiqing said to Song Xiaoai with a pleasant face: "Ah, it turned out to be Yang Ling Yang Da Oh, Lord Yang is now promoted to Wei Guogong, it is time to be called Guo Gong, hehe, the girl was originally invited by Wei Guo Gong to enter Beijing, Guo Gong is not in Beijing now, uh, can you let this official take you to the Guo Gong Mansion." By the way, there was a misunderstanding, the girl still let Yang Yu go, there are many people on this street, and it's not good to be looked down on by passers-by."

Song Xiaoai raised her eyebrows and said happily: "Grandpa Guo? Bigger than the Governor, right? Hehehe, Lord Yang has been promoted again! After she finished speaking, she looked up and down, the official in front of her had a long beard, although he was not as long as Wu Hanchao's father, but it was not short, well, he should be a serious person.

Song Xiaoai waved his hand very generously and said: "Okay, you are the squire of the military department, we are high on both sides in terms of rank and rank, and you have to control me in terms of power, I will give you a face and let go of the things that are not eye-opening."

Yang Yiqing said strangely: "Rank? Who are you? ”

Song Xiaoai said: "I am Song Xiaoai, the general of the Guangxi Zhuang Army, the general rank given by the emperor, he offended me, is it considered to collide with the official?" Can I bring the guards to the military headquarters? ”

Yang Yu was let go, but when she heard the identity of the girl, she was dumbfounded, and she was stunned and forgot about it. Yang Yiqing had also heard of this heroine, and couldn't help but be in awe, and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Lord Song, oops, please come in quickly, the soldiers guarding the door don't have some rules, how can you know the identity of the adult and not report it!" Lord Song, Grandpa Zhang, please come in quickly."

Song Xiaoai's face was hot when she heard this, this is not to blame the soldiers guarding the door, Yang Ling passed the news to her through the military post, and the letter did not mention that she had been promoted to the national prince, but only told her that Wu Hanchao had been arranged to the military department, and asked her to go to the Yang Mansion first after entering Beijing, and then think of arranging her.

But she was in love, and when she entered Yanjing City, she went straight to the military department, and when she arrived at the door, she only said that she wanted to see Wu Hanchao, Wu Hanchao is not in the military department now, and he just arrived at the military department and knew not many people, and the soldiers were too lazy to take care of it, so Yang Yuhui saw the beauty and stepped forward to talk, which led to this situation.

Yang Yiqing led the two into the yamen of the Ministry of War, Yang Yu got up, no one paid attention to him at all, thinking about this woman, whether it was her personal relationship with Yang Ling or her current official position, she was not a person who could do it with a thousand households at all, so she had to swallow her anger and get out.

Yang Yiqing invited the two into the house, asked someone to bring tea, and the three of them talked, he deliberately leaked Yang Yu's intention to Zhang Yong, Zhang Yong heard that the bastard was robbing his brother's position, and he hated it, he knew that this was the case, and he was going to beat Yang Yu just now.

Song Xiaoai asked about Yang Ling's promotion, and when he heard that he was promoted to the prince of the country, he was no longer in power in the court, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart. She doesn't care about promotion, the problem is that she and Wu Hanchao haven't gotten married yet, so she can't live with him, she was originally a general in the army who is not in the regular army establishment, if she can't have a justifiable arrangement, will she live in Yang's Mansion to eat dry food? Besides, the 100 people who brought in them are all dreaming of making meritorious contributions and sealing their wives and sons, how to arrange them now?

The little girl temporarily put aside her thoughts about her lover, and her eyebrows were deeply locked. She beat Yang Yu, Zhang Yongzheng was relieved, and he couldn't wait for more people to make trouble with Liu Jin, so he thought about it and came up with a way for him.

Zhang Yong smiled and said: "General Song is not in a hurry, leave here for a while, our family will go and ask for a place for you to go to ensure that you are majestic, then Yang Yu, no matter who is behind him, no one dares to trouble you, and you can arrange your people."

Song Xiaoai was summoned to Beijing by Yang Ling, and Zhang Yong did not have many scruples, he explained his intention to Yang Yiqing and asked him to help support Mu Bin from the perspective of the Yamen of the Ministry of War. What does the officialdom fight between him and Liu Jin mean, Yang Yiqing naturally understands, and he doesn't want Liu Jin to control the Jinyi Guard and control the Beijing camp, so he naturally nodded and agreed, and everyone talked about it in a harmonious manner, and Zhang Yong took Song Xiaoai to say goodbye and leave.

The two of them just walked out of the gate of the military department, and they flew over, Song Xiaoai's eyes were sharp, the person had not yet dismounted, she had happily called: "Han Chao!" He stepped up to meet him.

Wu Hanchao couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw that Song Xiaoai had arrived, he pinched his fingers and counted, Xiaoai should be almost there, but he didn't know the specific date, and he didn't expect to see her just after coming back from the Weiguo Mansion.

The two people rushed together, looked at each other, and the flying and domineering General Song immediately turned into a gentle and gentle little woman, the two of them chatted softly, and the snowflakes flew in the wind around them, but in their eyes, the wind and snow seemed to be far away.

The two of them first talked about the pain of parting and missing, and finally asked about the situation since the parting, Wu Hanchao heard that she beat Yang Yu of a thousand households in brocade clothes as soon as she arrived, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "You, you really don't know the depth of the world, there are many high-ranking officials in Beijing, and you can't compare to your hometown, so you can't do it in the future."

"Hmm!" Song Xiaoai looked at the lover affectionately, with a gentle and sweet smile: "Just now, the bearded Lord Yang also said so, don't you know that the sky is high and the earth is thick, which is a common word used by you men to reprimand women."

She couldn't help but play again: "I really know how high and thick the sky is, you know? ”

Zhang Yongchu still felt warm and romantic at first glance, but he stood not far away with his sleeves folded, seeing that there was no one next to a pair of little lovers, and now he was about to become a snowman, and finally couldn't help coughing and said: "Lord Song, you still want to see the emperor, do you see if it."

"Oh!" Song Xiaoai responded, gently pinched Wu Hanchao's thick palm, and said softly: "Gonggong Zhang promised to find an errand for me in front of the emperor, so that I can easily stay with you." Obediently, wait for me".

Wu Hanchao couldn't cry or laugh, being molested by Song Xiaoai has long become a kind of ** means for this little couple, I haven't seen him for a long time, Song Xiaoai suddenly became naughty, and Wu Hanchao felt very kind.

Song Xiaoai was in front of her lover, walking was also moving, Wu Hanchao obsessively looked at the charm of her waist swinging, her brisk pace was as light as a snowflake, a guard led Song Xiaoai to the horse, she took the reins of the horse, buckled the saddle, suddenly looked back and smiled, and said: "Those who want to teach Song Xiaoai a lesson have to pay a price." ”

She turned over on the horse, patted the horse's mane, and said with a smile: "Why did the turtle smash its bald head, so that you couldn't sleep for a few nights?" Now I tell you, God, there are two buttocks high, and the earth, not three feet thick, and as for why, I can't figure out why I want to go home and go again."

Wu Hanchao turned his face flat, snorted, and said in a pun: "Well, if you can't think of it, you can wait for the family law."

Song Xiaoai's face turned red, and she glared at him coquettishly, thinking about Wu Hanchao, a super curious baby, tonight there is ** I can't sleep again, he thinks about his riddle, just thinking about himself, and can't help laughing happily.

On the snow, a string of silver Ling's cheerful laughter curled, and the horse was already far away Wu Hanchao smiled bitterly and dusted the snowflakes on his hat, the riddle last time made him sleep badly for a few nights, and even begged and coaxed, Song Xiaoai told him the answer. I didn't think of another one for him now. After the flirtation, guessing puzzles seems to have become Song Xiaoai's second method of torturing him, and the more he plays, the more addicted he becomes, and he is a little tired of it.

Although Zhang Yong's heart and eyes are not as good as Liu Jin, he is not a few points less than him, he took Song Xiaoai to the leopard park, asked her to wait outside, and went to see the emperor in a smoke.

Zhengde was watching the folds, and Zhang Yongdu was in charge of the safety affairs of the leopard park and was also a frequent visitor, so Zhengde saw him and said hello very casually, exempted him from paying a big salute, and continued to watch the folds.

Zhang Yong moved the charcoal stove to the emperor, stood aside respectfully, and saw Emperor Zhengde look at the song and shook his head and said: "Last time, King Ning asked for the third guard, but I didn't allow it, but the local government strengthened the arrest of thieves and maintained law and order, but the governor of Jiangxi was too incompetent, and the robbers were caught more and more, you see, King Ning said that thieves were rampant, and they often entered the palace to steal, and the palace had limited manpower, plus the palace was in disrepair, and the palace was in disrepair, and the palace was now leaking when it rained, and it was too pitiful." ”

Zhang Yong said cautiously with a smiling face: "King Mo Feining has asked for the third guard again?" ”

"No, he said that many of the glazed tiles in the palace have been trampled on, or damaged by wind and rain, and if they want to be replaced, about twenty or thirty thousand pieces, this is made by the royal superintendent, and he can't be the master himself, so he asks me for a decree."

Zhengde said with a sad face: "The sea tax silver in Jiangnan has been handed over to Beijing, well, this is just the opening of the market, before and after a few months of hard work, many foreign businessmen have not had time to trade with the Ming Dynasty, the tax has almost caught up with the tax silver deported by the three towns in Jiangnan last year, it has helped me a lot, otherwise the salaries given to hundreds of officials at the end of the year, the reward for the three armies, and the expenses for preparing for the New Year, all come out of nowhere."

In my opinion, with another two years of hard work, this will definitely be better, but these two years will not be easy. King Ning wants to change the glazed tiles, build and bring transportation, plus other repairs, and get a large sum of silver, where will I get out? But this maintenance of the palace is a matter of royal subsidies, King Ning celebrates the New Year's holidays, and he is very generous in gifts, just changing tiles, how can I refuse? ”

"Yes, yes, yes" Zhang Yongzheng wanted to make it bad and asked the emperor to send Liu Jin to find a way, but he heard Zhengde say to himself: "Well, Liu Jin's proposal in the criticism is not bad, I ignore him, only investigate the rampant thieves, allow him to restore the three guards and horses, and step up the arrest of thieves to ensure the safety of the royal family." Hehe, he avoided the matter of asking for silver and tiles without a trace."

Zhang Yong heard that the lieutenant officials of King Ning's mansion went to Beijing at the end of the year to give gifts to the emperor, and also prepared a generous gift for Liu Jin, but he had no dealings with King Ning, so he was too lazy to care about this matter, so he just took this opportunity to talk about his own purpose: "Yes, the emperor, no matter how the world is governed, there are always some bold people who violate the law and prohibit it."

Not to mention the place, last year, Yang Ling was kidnapped by bandits in Beijing, and the Hou Mansion was attacked by hundreds of robbers, which shows how bold these bandits are. In Datong, cults have infiltrated the government as officials and colluded with foreign captives, and if it weren't for the emperor's great wisdom and bravery, he would have turned the tide, and if he changed others, he would inevitably be harmed. ”

Zhengde remembered that in Baishan Mountain, if it wasn't for Yang Ling's half-hearted Huadang, Wang Shouren waved his troops to help in time, and maybe there would be a repeat of the changes in Tumubao, so he couldn't help nodding again and again.

Zhang Yong took the opportunity to say: "The old slave heard that His Royal Highness Yongfu prayed for the Empress Dowager and wanted to become a monk. Although His Royal Highness is a monk, in the eyes of the world, she is still the daughter of the first emperor, and the current emperor's sister, if there is a small person who makes up his mind, it will be bad at that time."

"Monks?" A strange look surged on Zhengde's face: "Monk, this girl will sneak into the Yang family sooner or later, I have to help my sister hide this matter, although Zhang Yong is reliable, it is better not to tell him about the lower price." ”

"But what he said is also, the huge Horse Mansion, no, it's a huge nunnery, just send some palace maids to accompany the monks, and there is no man, let alone safety, if any palace maid goes out of the palace, hooks up with men indiscriminately, and makes her belly bigger, then wouldn't it be a shame for her sister to take herself? Should you really find someone to protect it, or let Liu Jin send some fans to surround the nunnery? ”

Zhang Yong looked at his face and said: "The emperor still remembers the Jiangnan Suppression of the Japanese and the requisition of the wolf soldiers in Guangxi, and the emperor personally issued an edict to appoint General Song, the chief officer of the wolf soldiers, right?" That is a female general, brave and good at fighting, repeatedly defeated the Japanese Kou, made great achievements for our Ming Dynasty, and is very loyal to the imperial court.

This female general is idle, this is not a year, she went to Beijing to visit Lord Yang Ling, and happened to be touched by the old slave. The old slave thought, this female general is both high in martial arts and a woman, if the emperor asks her to defend the nunnery, it is easy to enter and exit, and she will not cause gossip, so he hurriedly kept her and rushed to see the emperor, how does the emperor feel? ”

Zhengde smiled when he heard this, and said: "Not bad, yes, it's a shame for you to think about me, don't let a female general protect the royal sister, this idea is very good." ”

When he said this, his eyebrows jumped, and he suddenly thought in his heart: "Thousands of miles into Beijing to visit the old handsome? She won't be Yang Qing's photo, if that is the case, she will find a rival for her sister, and it would be strange if she didn't do anything bad from it."

Thinking of this, Zhengde politely refused: "How old is this Song general? Don't have any relatives in Kyoto, right? She is the head of the Zhuang family, is she willing to keep her in Beijing? Besides, she is a woman, and her generals will not all be female soldiers, right? I can't all live in the nunnery, so in what name will I settle down? It's not proper, it's not proper".

Zhang Yongdao: "This General Song has been engaged to Wu Hanchao, the general of the military department, so she must be willing to keep her in Beijing." Let her protect the nunnery, just to facilitate her to enter and exit for instructions, patrol safety, her people are naturally stationed outside the nunnery, as for the name, it is also very convenient, Yang Ling is not promoted to the Duke of Weiguo, the emperor's seven imperial villages, there are fewer people to guard, it is better to entrust the position of the commander of the imperial army to General Song, not only to take care of the imperial village, but also to protect the nunnery, killing two birds with one stone."

When Emperor Zhengde heard that she already had a mother-in-law, he immediately smiled and said: "Make, make, this method is good, then you can pass on the decree to me, appoint General Song as the commander of the imperial army's guards, and manage the Huangzhuang on behalf of me and serve as the general protector of the imperial nunnery."

Zhang Yongzheng was in his arms, he was about to retreat, Zhengde suddenly said: "I remembered what you said, the world is not quiet, Yang Ling was ordered to go to Bazhou to confiscate the property of the night, and only let the criminal department send some errands to follow, but it is not appropriate." No, no, it's so unsafe."

He stood up, paced a few steps in the room, and asked, "General Song entered Beijing, how many guards came?" ”

Zhang Yong hurriedly said: "I brought more than 100 guards, all of whom are capable warriors."

Zhengde shook his head and said: "It's not enough, it's not enough, you will follow your will, and then select some strong soldiers from the Beijing camp, make up the number of 1,000, and hand it over to General Song." She is the protector of the imperial nunnery, and Yang Qing is to prepare for the construction of the imperial nunnery to go to Bazhou to check and punish the officials, so it can be pasted, anyway, now that the nunnery is not built, she has nothing to do, let her lead the troops to Bazhou, catch up with Yang Qing and protect the law for him first, hehe! ”

Zhang Yong sighed and said: "The emperor is sympathetic to his subordinates and cares for the Duke of Weiguo, and the old slave is infinitely admired. The old slave will go and pass the decree."

Zhang Yongyuan thought that the emperor would meet Song Xiaoai, but he didn't expect the emperor to agree to come down so happily, so he retreated briskly. Zhengde watched him leave with a smile, and said in his heart: "Protect the Dharma and protect the Dharma, my sister hasn't passed the door yet, so it's not bad to protect my future sister-in-law first." ”

Maybe it's because Yang Ling is older than him, as soon as Zhengde imagines Yang Ling having to call him the eldest brother seriously, he feels that he has taken a great advantage, and he is overjoyed, and he doesn't think about the price of giving his sister to others.

Emperor Zhengde, who was out of tune, was silly and happy for a while, then picked up the copy that Liu Jin had approved, looked at it twice, and lifted the next line of small characters in Zhu Pen's approval: "Allow Liu Jin to prepare, just do it according to this!" ”
