Xiao Suo, low, sad, there are several states that should appear on Zhang Cheng's body, Wang Tong didn't see all of them, only saw a very relaxed old man. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Come on, come on, this tea is the best grade of Wuyi Tea House, and the good tea that pays tribute every year can't catch up with this."

The carriage compartment was spacious, and there was a copper charcoal stove in front of Zhang Cheng, the water in the kettle had been boiled, and Zhang Cheng picked up the kettle and began to make tea.

Zhang Cheng's movements were very stable, the boiling water was poured into the teacup just right, and the carriage was immediately filled with the fragrance of tea, Wang Tong noticed that Zhang Cheng's hair and eyebrows were much whiter than when he returned to Beijing, because of this white eyebrows and white hair, the whole person looked more than ten years old.

"Father-in-law Zhang, being in power has the benefits of being in power, but you also have the freedom of being idle, you are no longer in the palace, and you don't have to worry too much." , Wang Tong persuaded in a deep voice, Zhang Cheng put down the kettle, and moved a chimney on the top of the charcoal stove to light the charcoal stove in the car, and the enclosed space is always a little dangerous, so the Sanjiang Craftsman also gave this chimney, which is also quite exquisite, and it is connected to the outside of the car for smoke ventilation.

"Our family has also been to Tianjin Wei twice, but they are all errands, I have heard that it is amazing there over the years, our family didn't believe it, but look at your charcoal stove and chimney, our family believes it."

Zhang Cheng said with a smile, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, and picked up a cup of tea first, Wang Tong also picked it up and sipped it slightly. Since the wealth of the family, although not particular, but the food and beauty still see a lot, but also know that this tea is so delicious, tea is one thing, the technique of making tea is also one thing.

Seeing the praise on Wang Tong's face, Zhang Cheng said proudly: "After our family enters the palace", I have worked this, the heat of this charcoal stove, the water is boiled to a few percent, and the gesture when ordering tea must not be wrong to come out of good tea. ”

He didn't answer Wang Tong's words at all, but Zhang Cheng was also a very smart person, and he also found out why Wang Tong said this and drank it. Hot tea, satisfied with the long breath "touched the top of his head with his hand, and said with a smile: "Long live the lord is young, and he can't look too old as a slave, he always has to find something to dye his hair black, you see the old Han of the imperial prison, who is almost eighty years old, and he is not black hair" This is also the thirty years of Hedong and the thirty years of Hexi, our family still remembers that Emperor Sejongsu was at that time, and those who were a little older in the palace had to dye their hair white, which seemed to be a long time when they were in the palace on an errand, and Emperor Sejong still remembered the old feelings. ”

This story is quite interesting, Wang Tong couldn't help laughing, picked up the teacup and took another sip, it was really good tea, but at this time, he suddenly reacted, since leaving the palace, Zhang Cheng does look like an old man, but he has never been old.

Zhang Cheng's reaction and thinking are fast and flexible, and his movements are also accurate, the kind of old state he showed in front of the emperor has long disappeared, Zhang Cheng put the teacup on the coffee table, leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes slightly, and said softly: "For so many years, busy during the day and busy at night, how could I have any leisure, I finally knew what leisure was in the past few days, I slept a few times, and I felt that the bones and flesh were scattered, it was really comfortable!" ”

Wang Tong smiled and nodded, but he didn't know how to answer, he was still thinking about the things that suddenly came to mind just now.

"Long live the Lord has been watched by our family since he was a child, Long Live Lord always calls others a name, and calls our family to call one, accompaniment" Long live Lord is also an adult now, naturally unwilling to be polite to a slave all day long, our family is also concerned about it, and I can't help but say to take care of anything when I see it, besides, our family is in this position, I don't know how many people in the palace are thorns in the eyes, thorns in the flesh, after a long time, this is a disaster! It was called by Banzai

Big friend, what is the end, our family has seen it. This "big companion" is naturally Feng Bao, he is a high authority, coercive and even above the Son of Heaven, and then under the joint force inside and outside the palace, he went to Nanjing to guard the imperial mausoleum.

"Gonggong Zhang's brave retreat is really wise!" , Wang Tong flattered, Zhang Cheng smiled and shook his head, Wang Tong groaned, but still couldn't help asking: "Father-in-law Zhang, if Wang doesn't go to the ministry to persuade you, what are you going to do?" ”

"Our family also has some familiar officials in the court, and there is always a way."

Zhang Cheng replied with a smile, Wang Tong was also laughing, but shaking his head with a smile, Zhang Cheng picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Wang Tong, and asked, "What?" ”

"If you know about this matter, you must not think that you are smart and stupid." , Wang Tong sighed thoughtlessly, Zhang Cheng laughed out loud, put the teacup in his hand on the coffee table, took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, and said in a deep voice: "You kid is kind-hearted, you start to do this first, our family is very comfortable, I didn't mistake you!" Zhang Cheng sighed there, Wang Tong also adjusted his emotions, no matter what, the result was good, and there was no chaos, after all, Zhang Cheng helped himself so much, and now he can live for the rest of his life, and his wife will finish the rest of his life peacefully, which is a great thing.

"Father-in-law Zhang went to Tianjin Wei, that is his own place, if there is anything to open his mouth, Cai Nan can call the shots, otherwise let Wang arrange the same.

"Our family has so much money in our hands, even if we don't live happily without your care, and we have served others for so many years, our family should let others serve this time."

"This is easy to say, this is easy to say." , Wang Tong said with a smile.

………………

There was nothing to say along the way, the team arrived at the border of Tianjin Wei, and Cai Nan, the supervisor of the Huwei Army, and a cadre of the Tianjin Wei Wangtong system came over to greet them.

After Wang Tong helped Zhang Cheng down from the carriage, Cai Nan immediately knelt down and kowtowed, and said: "The ancestor lives in Tianjin, and he also let the child do his filial piety." Speaking of which, Zhang Cheng is the father-in-law of Jiaoyi, and the ministry is Cai Nan's father-in-law, although Cai Nan's current position is not low, he is still a character like his grandchildren in front of Zhang Cheng, and it is also his duty to serve filial piety properly.

But after all, Zhang Cheng is an old eunuch with no grade and no power at the moment, Cai Nan is equivalent to the ministers sent to Tianjin Wei by the palace, and the status and power are very different, the old man left his original position, although he can see it, but he can't say that he has no ideas in his heart, Cai Nan is so good, but Zhang Cheng is very pleased.

"Father-in-law Zhang wants to live by the Haihe River or in the city, the house, utensils and a dry service are all ready."

Wang Tong said with a smile.

.................., Zhang Cheng, the former eunuch of the master of ceremonies, lived like a prince in Tianjin, and everyone who had been to Tianjin Wei said so. No one thinks that there is anything excessive in this matter, and he has been a minister in the court for a time, and the one who returned to his hometown is not rich and noble, and his life is luxurious, not to mention the cabinet scholars.

This celebrant palm seal, that is, the status of the head of the cabinet, is rich and luxurious, and it is natural at this time, if it is not so, it will not seem that the court is mean and unkind.

Wang Tong in this matter has won a lot of reputation, Wang Tong from a small pawn in Jinyi Wei to the current status is only ten years, is one of the legends of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Tong's soaring Huang Tengda, which Zhang Cheng contributed a lot, Wang Tong took Zhang Cheng to Tianjin Wei to support, and so willing to spend money, this is a righteous act of thanksgiving.

In May of the fifteenth year of Wanli, there was a person in the imperial history of Shanxi Province, saying that now the naturalized city is the border, and there is no trace of light captives outside the border towns of Datong, Taiyuan and Yansui, and there are still border towns there.

This is the first time that someone has talked about abolishing the border towns since the beginning of Zhengde, and as soon as the news spreads, the public opinion in Beijing is silent, and the governors and governors of the border towns are all desperate activities in the excerpts of the Beijing Division, wanting to hear more news and understand the background of this matter.

"It's a big deal, how can you talk about it!" , The palace only gave this instruction, and the vain Yushi was sent to Qingzhou Mansion in Shandong Province to be the governor, it seemed to be a backwater, and there was no big turmoil in Beijing, everyone was relieved, thinking that maybe this was a scholar who made a big statement.

Yushi to do Zhizhou, the grade may have been upgraded by two levels, but in the eyes of the people of the time, it is a real downgrade, and there is no hope for the future glory and wealth, but from another point of view, the imperial history is also hard to endure in Beijing, if you can go to the local area to do a few herdsmen officials, maybe at most it is the level of the prefect, but the life is very comfortable, that is its own side of the world.

.................., compared to this excerpt, the excerpt of the Governor of Jiliao, the Nose Qingchen, made all parties in Beijing really move, and the excerpt of the Governor of Jiliao was an excerpt of the plea.

The soldiers and horses led by Qin Deyi, the general of Liaozhen, were ambushed and defeated by the Jurchen army in the Maerdun village of Suzihe, and hurriedly retreated to Liaozhen after losing more than 1,000 soldiers and horses.

If it was in the past, the loss of more than 1,000 soldiers and horses, the Li family would have concealed it by themselves, and they would have prevaricated and confused the past by finding a reason, but now Liaozhen is not the Li family's world, there is Ma Lin in Shenyang, and there is another Shou Lian in Phoenix, although the Li family is blocking the news, but Ma Lin still knows about it through other channels, and a secret letter was handed to the Governor of Jiliao.

The governor of Jiliao also has his own news channels, this matter was quickly confirmed, more than 1,000 soldiers and horses were damaged, and the main general was injured, this is not a trivial matter, and the Li family has been fighting outside the border wall of Liao Town for almost half a year, and has been reporting success but has not achieved anything, but this defeat is solid.

All the people involved are afraid of being involved in other things, and everyone knows that Wang Tong and the Li family do not deal with each other, if Wang Tong wants to act, everyone should not be involved, so although this news is covered up and concealed, it can be turned all the way to Jingshi
