Chapter 254: Meeting Faces

Having known Zhu Yunwen for so long, Xiao Fan felt for the first time that this emperor was a bit second.

No wonder Huang Ying didn't feel for him, put himself aside, and kicked it up a long time ago, Huang Ying was still just trembling with anger, with frost on her pretty face, she was really a good tutor, gentle and polite...... The atmosphere fell silent between the three of them...... Xiao Fan felt much more comfortable after vomiting, so he stood up straight and gave a stern look at the Jianwen Emperor, who was a bit second.

When Zhu Yunwen received it, he immediately smiled, and looked at Huang Ying with some apprehension.

Huang Ying's pretty face was like a coffin, her fists were clenched tightly, and her big black eyes were bursting with flames, as if she was trying to restrain the urge to punch at Zhu Yunwen's face.

Zhu Yunwen also saw that Huang Ying's face was wrong at this time, so the Jianwen Emperor said something more timely again.

"Ying'er, I didn't mean that just now, in fact, you look pretty ...... Hey, I'll just say that, he saw you throw up, but I saw you but didn't...... See what I mean? Zhu Yunwen's explanation was not satisfactory.

This sentence is obviously getting darker and darker, as the saying goes, the mud bodhisattva still has three points of the surname, not to mention a lady who doesn't seem to have a good temper?

Xiao Fan stroked his forehead, looked up to the sky and sighed sadly, and at the same time, Huang Ying erupted.

"Bastard! Die for me! A sharp roar resounded throughout the inner courtyard of the Huang Mansion, and Xiao Fan even felt that the earth began to tremble.

Zhu Yunwenjun's face was pale, and he watched helplessly as Huang Ying's jade foot kicked him in the chest...... "Ahh

When the Jinyi pro-soldiers on the left and right saw that the Son of Heaven was attacked, they were all shocked, and they pulled out their knives together, pointing at Huang Ying angrily.

Huang Ying lost her temper, but she was not afraid when she saw this, but straightened her chest, looking like Sister Jiang.

"Stop! Put the knife away and stand back! Zhu Yunwen hurriedly drank the brocade clothes and pro-army.

The pro-army retreated according to the words, Zhu Yunwen sat on the ground, looked at Huang Ying pitifully, and said aggrievedly: "Ying'er......, why did you beat me?" Did I say something wrong? ”

Huang Ying said angrily: "You brought so many people into my house, and now you still put on such a aggrieved face, don't you owe a beating?" ”

"We ...... We're here to ......" Zhu Yunwen stammered, sweating in his head.

Xiao Fan calmly continued: "Visit!" We are here to visit Lord Huang. ”

Zhu Yunwen's eyes lit up: "Yes! We're here to visit your brother. ”

Huang Ying was angry, pointed to the fierce and murderous Jinyi pro-army around her, and said angrily: "You call this way a visit? ”

"Although the way is a little more intense, the essence of it is still to visit, full of real gold." Xiao Fan's face did not change color.

Zhu Yunwen was not as cheeky as Xiao Fan, so he only nodded violently next to him: "Yes, that's the case!" ”

Huang Ying obviously had never encountered such a scoundrel, and suddenly became angry, pointed at Xiao Fan and Zhu Yunwen and said angrily: "You guys...... You guys are going too far! When my brother comes back, I must ask him to go to the Golden Palace to sue you......"

Xiao Fan pulled Zhu Yunwen and whispered in his ear, "She still doesn't know that you are the emperor?" ”

Zhu Yunwen said with a sad face: "Later, she knew that my name was not Xiao Fan, but I didn't tell her that I was the emperor......"

The two whispered, Huang Ying had already flicked her wide sleeves and walked quickly to the attic, not wanting to deal with them anymore.

Zhu Yunwen was anxious, and hurriedly confessed loudly: "Ying'er, I like you......"

"Phew!"

At this time, even the surrounding Jinyi pro-army couldn't stand it, and they all turned their heads gloomily, and couldn't bear to look at this emotionally failed mess.

Zhu Yunwen's eyes suddenly burst into tears, and he looked at Xiao Fan with red eyes and grievances: "Xiao waiter reads ......"

Xiao Fan sighed, this unlucky child, pickled girls like you, soaked for eight hundred years are singles...... "Push it, Your Majesty, strong push is the king......" Xiao Fan sincerely persuaded.

"I yearn for love ......"

"After pushing, there is love, really!"

Zhu Yunwen shook his head stubbornly, he is a good boy with a kind heart and innocence.

When the two of them were each sad, a familiar voice behind them rushed angrily: "Are you Jinyi guards lawless? What is the intention of breaking into the house of the minister of the court in broad daylight? ”

The two turned their heads in shock, but saw Huang Guan appear behind them, glaring at them with an iron face.

Xiao Fan exclaimed: "Lord Huang, why are you back?" ”

When Huang Guan saw Xiao Fan, he couldn't help but become more and more angry: "Xiao Fan! Sure enough, it's you! Hum! As soon as the official came out of the city, he felt that something was wrong, what a three-legged man was Xiangrui, it was just bullshit! It is clear that someone is flattering, and the official is still ready to enter the palace to admonish, but he didn't expect to meet you when he got home, and said! What do you want to bring people into your official's house? ”

As soon as the words fell, Huang Guan suddenly saw Zhu Yunwen hiding behind Xiao Fan and shrinking his head.

Huang Guan was taken aback: "Your Majesty, you ...... Why are you in the minister's house? You...... What to do? ”

Zhu Yunwen's face was ashamed, and he laughed dryly, uh-huh, uh-huh, ahhhh

"This ...... Haha, I said that I went out on patrol today, and I heard that a new soy sauce shop had opened in Beicheng, so I went to get a soy sauce by the way, but somehow, I came here...... Uh, you keep arguing, I'll go first......"

After speaking, Zhu Yunwen panicked, turned his head and walked out, and hung Xiao Fan in front of Huang Guan very unjustly.

Huang Guan opened his mouth wide, and Leng Leng watched Zhu Yunwen disappear into the mansion, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Seeing that the opportunity was rare, Xiao Fan quietly raised his legs, and also planned to smear the soles of his shoes, but as soon as he moved, he never wanted to be pulled by Huang Guan's sleeves.

"Xiao Fan! You thief! Your Majesty is today, the official doesn't dare to ask more, you tell the truth to the official, what do you want to do when you take the Son of Heaven to the official's house? If you don't make it clear, our Golden Palace is not finished! ”

Xiao Fan sighed secretly, and then said with a very serious face: "You know, there is a new soy sauce shop in Beicheng......"

Huang Guan said frantically: "Shut up! Shut up! Is it a fool to be an official? Let's be honest! ”

"Well, let's be honest, we're here to visit your sister......"

Huang Guan exploded when he heard it, and scolded with a red neck: "Visit your sister!" ”

Xiao Fan said helplessly: "Lord Huang, calm down, we are really here to visit your sister......

"Visit your sister!"

“…………”

It is said that it is just the beginning, it is late autumn, the scorching heat of the Beijing division seems to have just passed, the air finally brings a little coolness, and the autumn wind blows the withered fallen leaves on the side of the road, adding a bit of gloom to the autumn of the Beijing division.

When Xiao Fan was busy arguing with Huang Guan, Chen Ying'er had already landed at the door of Xiao's mansion.

In the inner courtyard of Xiao's Mansion, Chen Ying'er was blessed with a blessing to the river, and said: "The people have seen His Royal Highness the county lord......"

"Yikes! Ying'er, you haven't come to see me for a long time, excuse me, we've known each other for so long, and you're still so particular about what to do......" Jiang Du said with a look of surprise.

Chen Ying'er got up and said with a smile: "The county lord is the golden branch of the heavenly family, and the ceremony cannot be abolished." ”

Jiang Du stepped forward and took Chen Ying'er's hand, blinked his eyes and smiled: "Are you here to talk to me about yourself, or to talk to my family minister about official business?" Xianggong went out early in the morning and hasn't come back yet. ”

Chen Ying'er's face flushed, and she hurriedly said: "Of course it's looking for the county lord, how can I have anything to say to Lord Xiao......"

Jiang Du said with a smile: "Your Chen family's business is now prosperous in Daming, and it is doing well, and the Xianggong is now relying on you as his left arm and right arm, you are together for so many state affairs, how can you have nothing to say?" ”

Chen Ying'er hurriedly said: "The county lord has misunderstood, how can I have anything to say to Lord Xiao......

Jiang Du's smile became more and more weird: "I mean you talk about official business with the prime minister, do you want to talk to him considerately?" ”

"County Lord, ...... you" Chen Ying'er dyed her cheeks, uncontrollable, with the shame of her daughter's family, completely no longer looking like a strong woman in the shopping mall.

Jiang Du looked at Chen Ying'er's appearance, and his heart was slightly sour.

Women, whether ancient or modern, who doesn't want to monopolize their husbands? Who is really willing to share a husband with other women? Love is selfish, one more woman shares her husband, it means less pampering, a woman who loves her husband deeply will never be happy, without any guilt to help her husband take a concubine and marry another woman, if someone does this, she must be an idiot.

A woman is willing to accept another woman for her beloved husband, completely out of love, and the smiling face is pretended to be for her husband.

Although Jiang Du is the county lord of the golden branches and jade leaves, she has been knowledgeable since she was a child, and she is a very traditional woman in her bones, if other women enter the door of the Xiao family, maybe she has a lot of resentment, but Chen Yinger is different, Chen Yinger is Xiao Fan was married by the fingers of both parents before he made a career, they are destined to have the status of husband and wife in this life, strictly speaking, Jiang Du and Thrush, Zhang Hongqiao can only be regarded as a third party, Chen Yinger is the daughter-in-law identified by Xiao Fan's parents, in this feudal era where the husband is the sky and the in-laws are the sky, Their relationship is not something that can be denied by saying that they have withdrawn from the marriage.

Jiang Du sighed secretly, Chen Ying'er is the official wife of the princess, what if you are the county lord? Is it better than fate? Is it better than the words of parents, the appointment of matchmakers?

Even the blind can see how deep Chen Ying'er's affection for Xianggong is, Yunying is still unmarried, silently behind Xiao Fan, dedicating all her energy to him, from the time when Xianggong was just the commander of Jinyiwei, she was doing things for him, helping him deal with some things that could not be done in the official, in contrast, these wives who stay in the inner courtyard without leaving home are too different, if it comes to the woman who really helps Xianggong, no one in this world is as good as Chen Yinger.

She is like the shadow of Xianggong, no matter which angle the sun shines on Xianggong, she will never leave Xianggong, and she will never leave Xianggong.

In public and private, there should be one more woman like her in the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, who can break down a little tedious worries for her husband and let her busy husband take a few more breaths, just by virtue of this, Jiang Du feels that she should fully accept Chen Ying'er.

Whether a woman is selfish or selfless, it is because of her love for her husband, both ancient and modern.

Gently pulling Chen Ying'er's hand, Jiang Du smiled and said: "Ying'er, you and I are like sisters, I will say some things directly, what you mean, in fact, I have long understood ......"

Chen Ying'er was taken aback, and said with a red face: "I...... What do I mean? ”

Jiang Du grinned, avoided answering, just took her hand and said affectionately: "Ying'er, in the future, Xianggong's affairs in state affairs and official affairs will depend on you to help me a little more, you also know, although Xianggong has three wives, but we stay in the inner courtyard every day, and we don't even go out of the door, Xianggong is alone outside, although there are countless people in Jinyi Wei, but there are very few people who really make Xianggong completely relieved, although I am a woman's family, I have heard a little about the court and the current situation in the world, Xianggong...... In the past two years, there have been a lot of people who have offended outside, for example, although it is peaceful today, it is also full of crises, and Xianggong has worked very hard outside......"

Jiang Du said as he spoke, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

Chen Ying'er was stunned and said, "County Lord, you ...... What do you mean......"

Jiang Du sniffed vigorously and said with a smile: "Don't you understand what I mean?" ”

Chen Ying'er is at the helm of the Chen family's business, and a weak woman has created a huge family business for the Chen family, so she is naturally a smart person in ice and snow, how could she not understand what Jiang Du said?

Slowly, Chen Ying'er's pretty face became redder and redder, but her expression was full of surprise that could not be concealed.

Jiang Du shook Chen Ying'er's hand and said deeply: "Ying'er, you can do it better than us, in the future, you will take care of Xianggong outside on our behalf, help Xianggong, don't let him suffer, let him be tired, okay?" ”

Chen Ying'er's eyes turned red in an instant, and tears of gratitude couldn't stop falling.

Although Jiang Du never said a word to let her enter the door from beginning to end, Jiang Du's meaning in and out of his words was very clear that he agreed with her to enter the Xiao family, and he also represented the other wives of the Xiao family to share Xiao Fan's worries and solve problems.

After several years of hard work, in exchange for Jiang Du's words, Chen Yinger's heart suddenly swelled with a burst of prostration after a great joy, as if the burden on her shoulders was suddenly unloaded, so relaxed and light.

Kneeling in front of Jiang Du, all kinds of bitter and painful tastes in the past rolled and surging in her heart, Chen Ying'er could no longer care about her demeanor, and threw herself on Jiang Du's knees and cried.

Jiang Du also wiped his tears, stroked Chen Ying'er's hair, and choked up: "Ying'er, I know that you have worked very hard alone in the past few years, don't worry, you will be happy in the future, Xianggong is a good man, a good man who can make his wife feel happy all the time......"

A woman has been silently guarding for so long and paying so much for the man she loves, even if she has had any unpleasant experiences before, it should be written off.

Only those who have paid the price can realize what true happiness is.

In October of the 31st year of Hongwu, in the late autumn season, everything was silent, and the Ming Dynasty was bleak and scattered.

In Datong Mansion, Shanxi, in the mountains stretching on the north side of the Great Wall, a carriage-only carriage-only road stretches into the distance, until there is no end in sight.

In this barren land with no one for a hundred miles, a group of more than 1,000 horsemen were escorting a young man in a black samurai suit, walking along the horse road without hurry, and behind them, closely followed by five large carriages, the carriages were tightly covered with tarpaulins, and the wheels ran over the damp mountain road, leaving deep indentations, showing that the things on the carriage were not light.

The young man is the Marquis of Chengyi, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Xiao Fan, and now he has another halo on his head, and he is the top martial champion in the thirty-first year of Hongwu.

Leaving Jingshi and coming to Datong Mansion in Shanxi was the result of Xiao Fan's request to Zhu Yunwen.

Today, he wants to do a major event related to the current situation in the world,—— form an alliance with Duoyan Sanwei!

To be more precise, it is to buy Duoyan Sanwei.

Except for King Ning who guarded Daning, and King Yan of Beiping Mansion, no one in the world would notice the Mongolian cavalry with only 50,000 soldiers and horses outside the Great Wall, but Xiao Fan noticed it, not only paid attention, but also attached great importance to it, with his current status, he actually went thousands of miles to buy this seemingly inconspicuous 50,000 Mongolian cavalry, which shows how much he attaches importance to Duoyan Sanwei.

This is another fraud by the traverser, Xiao Fan knew in his previous life how much of a role Duoyan Sanwei played in the process of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, rebelling.

A year ago, when the power of the Jinyi Guards spread to the north, Xiao Fan specially instructed him to carefully inquire about all the information about the Duoyan Sanwei, especially the surnames, temperaments, hobbies of the leaders of this cavalry, and their loyalty to their nominal boss, King Ning, and so on.

After a year of accumulation of information, after analysis, Xiao Fan discovered a fact that surprised and delighted him.

This cavalry doesn't seem to buy much into King Ning's account, they are a group of guys who only recognize money and don't recognize people, all of them are unruly, rough and arrogant, they only have gold and silver, food and women in their eyes, to put it more directly, they are actually an ancient mercenary army, whoever gives them money, they recognize whoever is the boss.

In the history of his previous life, Zhu Di also won the allegiance of Duoyan Sanwei by throwing money, and easily deceived them from King Ning.

Today, Xiao Fan also wants to follow Zhu Di's old path once, be a master with a lot of ambition, and enjoy the taste of smashing others to death with money.

In terms of economic strength, the imperial treasury that has been recuperating for 30 years in the Hongwu Dynasty is naturally much more abundant than the pitiful treasury accumulation of the Yanwang Mansion in Beiping.

More money than anyone throws at it, Zhu Di is definitely not the opponent of the imperial court, this is like pursuing a woman, billionaires compete with the poor, and the rich undoubtedly have a lot of advantages over the poor.

Out of the Great Wall, after Cailiang Mountain, the terrain in front of it is gradually flattened, and the sparse green grassland has been seen.

This trip was top secret, in order to avoid Zhu Di's eyes and ears, Xiao Fan deliberately set the place of the meeting outside Datong Mansion in Shanxi, which was far away from Beiping.

The team was still moving forward slowly, and a scout who was exploring the way in front of him galloped over, and said in front of Xiao Fan: "My lord, the commander of Duoyan Wei and the commander of the same Zhilu Kuchar led hundreds of people to greet the adults, and they are heading here, and they will arrive soon. ”

Xiao Fan nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he heard a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and a group of big men wearing Mongolian leather robes and messy clothes galloped towards him.

When Xiao Fan was about a mile away, the first bearded man suddenly raised his arm high, and all the Mongolian cavalry stopped their horses.

Then the bearded man got off the horse, and walked slowly towards Xiao Fan in the way of walking, his steps were heavy, perhaps because of the long-term horse life, he walked with his legs unconsciously to the sides, in the shape of a figure-eight, like a swaying fat duck, which looked a little ridiculous.

The scout whispered in Xiao Fan's ear: "This person is Duo Yanwei's commander Tongzhi Tulu Kuchar. ”

Xiao Fan's expression froze, and he hurriedly dismounted, and walked towards Delu Huzar step by step.

The two met in the middle of the two teams, looked at each other and observed each other for a long time, and then suddenly grinned, and then knelt down to Xiao Fan, and said in stiff Chinese: "Da Ming Duo Yan Wei commands Tong Zhi Tu Lu Hu Chaer, and meets Lord Xiao, the commander of Da Ming Jinyi Guard." ”

Xiao Fan heard that Tulu Huzar called himself so, and immediately let go of half of his thoughts.

Duoyan Sanwei has always been unruly, and he didn't even buy King Ning's account much, but as long as Tulu Kuchaer admitted that he was still under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, it would be easy to do this now.

Xiao Fan showed a warm smile, stretched out his hand to help Tulu Huchaer up, and said with a smile: "Master Tutong knows that you don't need to be polite......

Tru Kuchaer said: "What is the same knowledge? ”

Xiao Fan also said: "Aren't you surnamed Tuo?" ”

"I ......" Tulu Kuchar opened his mouth wide, wanting to explain the question of Mongolian surnames to Xiao Fan, but when he thought of his limited Chinese skills, he finally decided to give up.

"Lord Xiao, you should call the lower official by his name......" Tulu Kuchaer sighed helplessly.

Xiao Fan laughed and helped Tulu Kuchaer up.

Seeing that Xiao Fan was so approachable, he couldn't help but let go of his restraints, grabbed Xiao Fan's hand tightly, and shook it up and down to show the affection of the Mongols.

"Lord Xiao's name is powerful in Zhenyu, both civil and military, your fame is like a dandelion blown away by the wind, even our warriors on the grassland know, now I can see the demeanor of the adult, it is the care of Changshengtian to me, may Changshengtian bless the adult."

Xiao Fan was shaken by the big hand of Delu Kuchar, and he was embarrassed to shake it off, and he laughed dryly when he heard the words: "It's polite to know ......."

“…… Lord Xiao, could you please call me by my full name directly? ”

"Well, Tarukhar, in order to show the sincerity of meeting you and me today, I have also given myself a nice Mongolian name......"

He shook his head for a moment, and then said happily, "What name did you choose?" ”

Xiao Fan looked down at the two big hands holding his own, was silent for a moment, and said, "Mar Gobi. Pine head. ”
