Chapter Twenty-Four: "Virtuous Help"

The splendid warm pavilion is yellow and clear, and it seems to be filled with the atmosphere of the emperor.

Listening to the reading of Shengbao's excerpts, sitting at the kang table, the graceful and luxurious Niu Hulu gently frowned: "Jingxiang, this kid, why are you still angry?" ”

Outside the warm pavilion, there was a chuckle: "Sister, if you want me to say, I can't complain about Jingxiang, I am young and vigorous, I fought well, Shengbao ran to insert a pole, young man, it's strange if you don't have grievances." ”

Niu Hulu sighed and said: "But what the sixth said is also right, I'm afraid that this kid is in a hurry and messes up the legal system." ”

"Sister" said in a crisp and powerful voice: "The sixth child is just afraid of this and that, and he doesn't have a bit of sharpness." In this Guangzhou City, the situation in the south is not stabilized by Jingxiang's kid with a sharp spirit? It's hard to rely on the sixth child! ”

Thinking of Jing Xiang's goodness, Niu Hulu's brows relaxed, and he nodded: "Yes, this kid has really won a lot of battles, otherwise, let's call Shengbao back?" "The Empress Dowager Ci'an is like this, she doesn't know much about military and state affairs.

"That's not good, how can there be a change of day, and besides, it's not up to my sister and I to have the final say on the affairs of the court, but sister, do you know what people outside Shengbao call him? They all shouted that he was defeated! Don't take his excerpts seriously, Jing Xiang is good at this, and never writes bad things behind the excerpts. ”

Niu Hulu nodded again, "Yes, that's really the case." ”

"Jingxiang, it's all good, but it's just a little ......" The crisp and powerful voice stopped, yes, it's all good, but people don't know what he's thinking, this young man, what is he buried in his heart? Why does it always feel like he's planning something?

…… What was Ye Zhao thinking?

Sitting in the study, sipping tea, Ye Zhao pondered the next plan, yes, he could finally make a plan.

Gain a firm foothold in Guangdong, drive the development of the whole province with the development of Guangzhou, complete the arsenal of the explosives factory, find innovation in firearms technology, and use various emerging enterprises to cultivate the first batch of technical forces. Militarily, it is necessary to find a way to expand its "sphere of influence" to Jiangxi and Fujian, defeat the victory, and weaken the strength of the monk king, which is his short-term goal.

The monk king is in the Zhaoqing military camp, the Mongolian iron cavalry is 5,000, the infantry is 10,000, of which half of the infantry is firearms, of course, most of them are shotgun guns and outdated smoothbore guns, of course, there are also two rifle battalions equipped with Carman Ryder M1842 rifles, although the combat power will not be very high, but according to the idea of attaching importance to the opponent tactically, it cannot be underestimated, and the arrogant soldiers will be defeated.

How to weaken the strength of the monk king, but we have to think carefully, after all, the monk king can be regarded as the mainstay of the Qing Dynasty, and it may become his own hindrance in the future.

Beijing, because of his own intervention, it seems that the Second Opium War or the Sino-British and French War is over, the Old Summer Palace has escaped a catastrophe, whether it is good or not, if the capital does not make some noise, he will not be able to change the world after all, but this long-term goal must be slowly considered.

Tasting the tea, Ye Zhao fell into deep thought again, but he would never have thought that at this time, on the second floor of the lotus building above his head, Rong'er brought an uninvited guest.

The third suite on the second floor, the west side of Rong'er's Daisy Pavilion, is called "Begonia Pavilion".

Grandma Jin Er timidly followed Rong'er into the Begonia Pavilion, and under the guidance of the Duchess of the Kingdom, the various rooms went around, which was really eye-opening and breathtaking.

"How's it going?" Although Rong'er is small and has cute eyebrows, Ye Zhao hurts her a lot. But in front of outsiders, she is the Duchess of Fuguo, with a look and a dignified posture.

Grandma Jin Er was really worried, I don't know what the Duchess of Guo suddenly summoned her, but didn't she hear any rumors and rumors to settle accounts with herself, right? My heart was tightened.

Hearing Rong'er ask, Grandma Jin Er hurriedly said: "Back to Mrs., the immortal residence." ”

Rong'er's beautiful big eyes looked at Grandma Jin'er curiously for a moment, and looked at Grandma Jin'er's heart, and now she can only endure being insulted or even beaten for no reason, she is afraid that the Duchess will come up with some vicious way to torture herself, thinking of her vicious means to deal with the nail in her eye, Grandma Jiner's snow-white hands can't help but sweat.

Rong'er is really curious about Jiner's grandmother, and after a few days of coming to Guangzhou, she heard Jixiang talk about this person, saying that there are rumors in the house that she often wanders around with her husband in pairs.

"Just call me sister." Rong'er is childish, but she has a noble temperament.

"The people's daughter, the people's daughter doesn't dare." Grandma Jinji lowered her head, at this time, she really hoped that the wicked would suddenly appear.

Rong'er said: "What dare you dare?" I brought you here to this Begonia Pavilion just to let you live here in the future! ”

Yes? Grandma Jiner looked up at Rong'er in surprise, she never thought that she would say this.

Rong'er stretched out her hand, and the pretty girl Jixiang hurriedly handed over a piece of paper, Rong'er handed it to Jin'er's grandmother and said, "You don't have to worry about the Tao family's affairs, he has written all the books, you can live with peace of mind!" ”

The thing is called Jixiang to do it, Jixiang asked Rui Si for help, so it's not easy to ask Tao Lao Er to write a letter to repair the book?

Grandma Jin Er was speechless by this sudden change, but she heard Rong'er say again: "You should treat it as my sister who invited you to stay for a few days, so come tomorrow." ”

Although Rong'er is young, as the main room, she doesn't want her husband to be laughed at, so she takes a married woman all day long. Xianggong is confused, as a virtuous helper, he must always help Xianggong get things done, and he can't make people laugh at the lack of rules in the Grandpa's Mansion.

But Rong'er didn't know Xianggong's thoughts, racked her brains and thought she had thought of a good way, and invited Jin'er Grandma to live in the house in the name of her sisters.

It's just that Rong'er remembered that Xianggong was in poor health, and felt that the rumors between Xianggong and Jiner's grandmother were only afraid that they were wrong. But Rong'er also knows that she is young and doesn't understand a lot of things, Jin Feng is a person from the past, maybe she can really help Xianggong, if she can cure Xianggong's illness, it will be great.

Grandma Jin Er was stunned for a long time with the repair book, and when she heard that the Duchess invited her to live in this lotus building, she could vaguely guess Rong'er's careful thoughts, but is this true? Was it a trick by this little lady to torture herself?

As soon as you enter a wealthy family, it is as deep as the sea, and the Tao family is really a sparrow house compared to the Guogong Mansion, but despite this, how fierce the open and secret battles inside are, Jin Er's grandmother knows very well, let alone the Guogong Mansion, which is the top powerful family of the dynasty.

Although the little lady is young, how can she hold sand in her eyes? I'm afraid that most of them are seeing themselves as eyesore, and they have thought of some vicious way to deal with themselves.

"You'll come tomorrow!" Rong'er didn't give her a chance to refuse, and said categorically.
