152 Efficiency and Yaxing
PS: Don't ask for a monthly pass, don't ask for a reward, just support a subscription, thank you! During the business trip, the update of the past two days has been unstable, forgive me.
Zhao Jin is a good man, the gate of the left capital of the imperial history, fortified for others, but for Yu Jin, he can enter freely, even if Zhao Jin is not there, the door will also welcome Yu Jin in, anyway, there are women to take care of.
The word was given by Zhao Jin, and when he went to participate in the interview, he trained Yu Jin for several days, in order to avoid suspicion, although the two did not formally apprentice, but the relationship was already very good, even the female dependents of the Zhao Mansion did not avoid.
Luckily, Zhao Jin was at home, Yu Jin finished greetings, and sent the letters, specialties and other things that the Zhao family entrusted him to bring intact, not long after, under Zhao Jin's instructions, the two went to the study of Zhao's mansion to talk.
"Master, Master Yu, this is the sour plum soup that Madame just made." As soon as I went to the study and sat down, the maid of the Zhao Mansion brought sour plum soup.
Zhao Jin said with a smile: "Siyuan, try it, this is the sour plum soup made by Mrs., it tastes good, and it is appetizing to reduce the heat." ”
Yu Jin took a sip, the sour plum soup was sweet and sour, the taste was excellent, the cold feeling, as if the summer heat was swept away, in this hot summer, it was really a pleasure to drink such a cold and superb sour plum soup.
"Uncle, is there ice here?"
"The sour plum soup must be chilled to be delicious." Seeing that Yu Jin was a little surprised, Zhao Jin explained: "Many families in the capital will collect a large amount of ice and put it in the ice cellar when it freezes in winter, and then take it out and use it when it is hot. ”
Ice?
Yu Jin's mind flashed with inspiration, and he turned a little remorseful.
In the Ming Dynasty, where there was no electricity and no refrigerator, ice played a great role, and in the sweltering summer, it was definitely the best way to cool off, but Yu Jin never took the matter of the ice cellar to heart. Now that I think about it, it's really lagging behind.
You don't have to go to winter to make ice with saltpeter, and it's absolutely enjoyable to drink a bowl of chilled plum soup, shaved ice or ice cream on such a hot day. By the way, if you put a few buckets of ice in the carriage, you don't have to be as hot as a sauna every day.
It's really stupid to come home, and I'm determined to come here to enjoy happiness.
No, go back and ask someone to get an ice cellar and collect a batch of saltpeter, then this summer will be much better.
"What, it doesn't taste good?" Seeing Yu Jin in a daze, Zhao Jin saw Yu Jin in a daze. Hurriedly asked.
Yu Jin came to his senses and immediately said, "It's delicious, it's delicious, I was just wondering how my aunt got it, it's really delicious." ”
"If you want to eat, run diligently."
"Hey, definitely." Yu Jin immediately responded.
After saying a few words, Zhao Jin suddenly asked, "Siyuan." Do you know anything about the capital recently? ”
Yu Jin's heart moved, but he still pretended to know nothing. Said curiously: "Uncle, what happened in the capital recently?" ”
After leaving the capital for so long, I don't know what happened right, and it seems that I am too shrewd, but it is easy to arouse suspicion.
Zhao Jin did not sell Guan Zi with Yu Jin, but said with a concerned face: "The emperor's body is getting weaker and weaker. often do something unreasonable, it is only a matter of time before the old and the new alternate, and recently King Jing has also stepped up his activities and wooed ministers everywhere. Obviously unwilling, ready to fight to the death. ”
"Now is a critical moment, you can't act rashly," Zhao Jin admonished with a straight face.
Everyone has their own news channels, Zhao Jin is in the capital, and he can be regarded as the number one person, so this kind of thing naturally can't be hidden from him.
What touched Yu Jin the most was that Zhao Jin took the initiative to tell himself about it, indicating that he really regarded himself as his own.
"Uncle, what if this happens?" Yu Jin asked in a low voice.
Zhao Jin glanced at Yu Jin, and said with a flat face: "Don't toss around if you have nothing to do, it's better to be still, just do your job." ”
did not let him take refuge in King Jing, that is, he firmly supported King Yu.
"Yes, uncle, understood." Yu Jin said respectfully.
For the ministers, it is natural that the emperor will be easier to speak, the better, the weaker the monarch's power, the stronger the ministers' power, and vice versa, if the emperor is too strong, the ministers will not be able to deal with it.
Back then, Yang Tinghe, who was the first assistant to the cabinet, welcomed Zhu Houyu, who was still a vassal king, into the capital to inherit the throne, a big reason was that Zhu Houyu was young, he was only fifteen years old at that time, the son of a small vassal king, Mao Xiao, easy to control, but he didn't expect to be too smart.
Zhu Houxi is not very old, but his IQ is extremely high, and he forced Yang Tinghe to leave.
Shoufu was replaced by Xu Jie, and the position was changed, but the thinking was still the same, they all hoped that the emperor could be a little better, and it was best to give enough trust and power to let himself better show his ambitions.
As a lecturer of Yuwang, it can be said that Yuwang grew up under Xu Jie's eyelids, which is much more confident than Yang Tinghe's simple selection of people based on age.
It is said that people are divided into groups, and things are gathered by like, Xu Jie, Zhao Jin are both the successors of Wang Shengren's psychology, with similar goals and concepts, and Zhao Jin naturally stands on the other side of Xu Jie.
"Uncle Xie's teachings, the little nephew must remember them." Yu Jin said respectfully.
Zhao Jin has the advantage of connections and resources, knows what the general trend is, and follows the trend, while Yu Jin, as a latecomer, has the advantage of "unpredictable prophet", which is more conducive to standing on the right team.
However, there is a premise that history has not undergone major shifts.
As the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, there are many official affairs, Zhao Jin has to go back to sit in the town after eating, Yu Jin is not good to stay long, and he stays in the study for two quarters of an hour, and then takes the initiative to leave.
"Sir, sir." As soon as Yu Jin walked on the front foot, Mrs. Zhao Sun walked into the study a little anxiously.
Zhao Jin said a little strangely: "Madam, why is it so urgent?" ”
His wife has always advanced and retreated in moderation, and she is not shocked by the humiliation, but this time she was in a bit of a hurry and said a little messily, which made Zhao Jindu feel strange.
Zhao Sun said with some hesitation: "Among the gifts sent by Prince Yu, there are two very expensive Taisheng mirrors, which are not only exquisite, but also bigger than the Taisheng mirrors of Mrs. Li's house. ”
"It's hard to take other people's, this kid. Accept it" Zhao Jin said with a smile: "In the past, this kid was in our house, eating and living, so he should charge a little room and board, by the way, give Yin'er a side, she mentioned that she wanted one side last time." ”
Married for so many years. Zhao Jin had already figured out her wife's temper, and when she encountered this situation, she usually wrapped the gift and gave it to her disposal, but this time she just said it, and there was some reluctance between the words, obviously she liked the gift, in fact, when she spoke just now, Yu Jin hinted that there was a special gift.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the most popular Taisheng mirror on the market now.
To know. At a party or banquet, a lady or lady inadvertently took out a Taisheng mirror to make up or something, which can definitely attract the people around to amaze and admire, that feeling, more beautiful than wearing any pearl and jade, Zhao Sun's family has long wanted a mirror, but the price is too expensive, or the kind that has no price.
When the water is clear, there are no fish. Zhao Jin is not a pedantic person, in fact, a pedantic person can't reach his position.
What's more, this was sent by Yu Jin.
"Hey. Okay, master" Zhao Sun said happily: "I listen to the master." ”
Dog days, between Xiaoxia and the beginning of autumn, it was the hottest day of the year, and it was better when it was in Zhaofu, as soon as it came out, there was a heat wave in the face.
I have to take the time to make more cool.
Out of the Zhao Mansion. Yu Jin didn't go home, so he went to the mason and contacted the merchant who sold the construction materials, and was busy until dark, and then returned home before curfew.
One home. Qing'er greeted her, flattened her mouth and said, "Young master, why did you come back?" ”
Yu Jin said angrily: "No way, the job is low, and I have to raise so many mouths, my hands stop and my mouth stops, if only some people could pay some room and board fees." ”
This Qing'er is in the house, secretly thinking of herself as a young grandmother, usually ten fingers do not touch the spring water, and often let people buy expensive medicinal herbs stewed soup, in her words, women are easy to get old if they don't make up, and all they spend is Yu Jin's money, if it weren't for a little family background, her own little money was not enough for her to make up.
This girl is here to spy on herself, with such a time bomb by her side, and she doesn't see Jinyiwei making up some money.
Hearing that Yu Jin was a little dissatisfied, Qing'er pretended not to hear it, the big eyes turned, and immediately said with a smile on his face: "Young master, look at you, your head and face are sweaty, and your body is soaked, well, there is a sour smell of sweat, it is better to take a bath first, the little woman just bought some petals today, and soak them with the petals to ensure that your body and mind are comfortable, and your whole body is fragrant." ”
As soon as he sweated, his whole body was greasy and he felt very uncomfortable, Yu Jin is a person who loves cleanliness, and when he heard that his whole body was a little uncomfortable, he immediately nodded and said, "Okay, go and prepare, by the way, add more petals." ”
I have watched a lot of movies and television, and those beautiful women are soaking in the bath tub or bath sprinkled with flower petals, and the picture is beautiful.
Yu Jin thought about it for a long time and wanted to try what it tasted like, and he readily agreed.
"Yes, my eldest young master."
"By the way, how's the connection over there?" Time is tight, the mason has been invited, and he has to discuss the matter of buying shares with Zhu Xizhong, and he has to pay attention to it, and if he talks about him, he has to find King Yu, and now Yu Jin is very busy.
Qing'er smiled and threw a wink at Yu Jin: "Don't worry, the little woman is so efficient that you will be surprised." ”
Yu Jin nodded and didn't say anything.
Soon, Yu Jin was in his bedroom, naked and soaked in a large bathtub made of cedar wood, the large bathtub was filled with hot water, and there was a layer of petals floating on the hot water, the petals were originally fragrant, soaked in hot water, the essence was emanated, and the room was full of pleasant floral fragrance.
Closing his eyes, Yu Jin hummed in comfort.
Just when Yu Jin was cool, there was a "bang", the door suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man walked in.
The person who came was Cheng Guogong and the commander of the Jinyi Guard: Zhu Xizhong.
"Ahem, Mr. Yu is so good." The person who came suddenly said with some embarrassment.
Yu Jin suddenly remembered what Qing'er said just now: The little woman is so efficient that you are surprised.
Your sister, where is this surprise, this is simply a fright. (To be continued......)
