Ke Yinyue is tall and beautiful, with a light and charming demeanor, standing on the side of the Huanghuali wood food table, leaning forward slightly, as if she is not overwhelmed by the burden of big breasts, the pair of overly big eyes looked at Zhang Yuan, observing Zhang Yuan's subtle expression - Zhang Yuan remained silent, turned his head and beckoned the beautiful maid with pear vortex on her cheeks under the corridor to take another wine glass, poured Hantan spring wine, poured her own wine glass to full, and raised her glass and said: "Zhang Yuan toasts the guest with a glass." ”

Ke Yinyue saw that Zhang Yuan did not respond to her words at first, and her charming expression was already a little stiff, but when she saw Zhang Yuan toasting her, she was surprised and delighted, and said: "How dare the little woman toast as the champion, isn't it to kill the little woman." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Mama Ke feeds the eldest grandson of the emperor, and the hard work is high, of course Zhang Yuan wants to respect Mama Ke." ”

Ke Yinyue smiled "hee-hee": "Zhuangyuan Gong really can speak, isn't it just breastfeeding, what kind of hard work is this." When she said this, she had already leaned over and picked up her wine glass, and said with a smile: "It's better for the little woman to respect the princess." After that, he raised his neck, his big chest was straight, and the wine in the cup had already entered - the spring wine in Hantan was quite strong, and in the blink of an eye, Ke Yinyue's fair and smooth cheeks were covered with a layer of redness, and his big eyes seemed to be dripping water. He stroked his somewhat hot cheeks and looked at Zhang Yuandao: "The little woman can't drink alcohol, so she will get a drop on her face." It's obviously scratching her head, but it doesn't make people think she is vulgar.

Zhang Yuan smiled and said: "Mama Ke can drink at a glance, and it is easy to get drunk if she doesn't change her face like me - okay, I'm going back next, Mama Ke will get together with Brother Ling and Ling Lang for a while." Xiang Ke Yinyue waved and turned to leave the hall.

Ke Yinyue chased after him and said, "Wait a minute, the little woman asked my brother and inferior son to kowtow to Zhuangyuangong." ”

The big Han Keguang and the young Hou Guoxing had already entered the side courtyard, knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan said: "Haven't you seen it before, hurry up, please get up, please get up." He motioned for Wang Dazhui and Laifu to help the two of them up.

Ke Yinyue said: "Champion Gong, my brother is lazy, saying that there is no way to live in his hometown farming, and he wants to find an errand in Beijing, I don't know if Champion Yuan Gong can do a favor, that is, it is very good to be a long-term follower for Champion Yuangong." ”

Zhang Yuanxin said: "Why did you entangle me, this Hakka sister and brother has a suspicious background, how can I stay by my side." He said with a smile: "Mama Ke, it is really not convenient to live in my brother-in-law's house, so that my brother is heroic and extraordinary, how can he be subservient." ”

The guest first bowed his head and listened to Zhang Yuan's praise of him, raised his eyes and glanced at Zhang Yuan, and then lowered his head again.

Ke Yinyue said: "Isn't the champion going to move out of his wife's brother's house soon, the little woman heard that Uncle Zheng Guo sent a courtyard house to the champion prince." The generous beautiful eyes stared at Zhang Yuan.

Zhang Yuanxin said: "Ke Yinyue seems to be tempting when she says this. He shook his head and smiled: "Has this matter reached the ears of Mama Ke, it is really terrifying, how dare you accept Uncle Zheng's generous gift, and you have declined." ”

Ke Yinyue said "oh", and said: "Then wait for the champion to settle down at home, and then help the little woman and this brother find an errand, lest he wander all day and have nothing to do, although the little woman has been in the capital for more than ten years, but they are all staying in the palace, and they don't know any foreign officials. ”

Zhang Yuan looked at this handsome and enchanting woman, and said in his heart: "You are still just a nurse of the eldest grandson of the emperor who has been snubbed, not the holy lady of the Emperor of the Apocalypse, let me be the new champion to find an errand for your brother, it is indeed very bold and presumptuous, where do you have the confidence?" But the tone was gentle: "I have a few of the same year, and I will go to Beijing in a few months to take up my post, I can recommend Brother Ling to one of them, and then go to a certain state or county government to work as an errand, what do you think?" ”

As Zhang Yuan expected, Ke Yinyue said: "Thank you Zhuangyuangong, it's just that the little woman's younger brother is timid and wooden, except for a few catties of strength, he has no strength, and the little woman doesn't want him to leave Beijing, and she wants him to help take care of my son Guoxing, the little woman only has their two relatives now, and she doesn't want to stay away." ”

Zhang Yuan looked at Ke Yinyue's big-faced son and asked, "How old is Ling Lang?" ”

Ke Yinyue said: "The New Year is eleven years old, the foolish wood is tight, and there is no etiquette. There was no love in his tone, and he seemed to be a little disgusted - Zhang Yuan looked at this Hou Guoxing and said, "Eleven years old, my body has grown up." Said to Ke Yinyue: "Since you don't want to leave Beijing, then wait until I settle down in the Hanlin Academy, and see if I can find a deacon for my brother in the Hanlin Academy." I thought: "It's definitely not okay to follow me, it's okay to do chores in the Hanlin Academy, and let me see who your brothers and sisters are." ”

Ke Yinyue hurriedly said: "Thank you, thank you, thank you." Twisting his slender waist to Zhang Yuanwanfu.

Zhang Yuan arched his hand and said: "Then I'll go back first, and invite grandma to tell Gonggong Zhong and thank him for his good wine." "Brought Laifu and Wang Dazhui out, walked slowly along the east shore of Qianhai, watched the scenery of Qianhai, while thinking about the secret of Ke Yinyue's identity and the situation of the prince Zhu Changluo - the sun is shining, the Qianhai is rippling, the shore is full of green trees, the inner city of Yanjing has the best scenery here, Zhang Yuan came here last time was a frozen scene, and now it is a spring light, the blue water reflects the sky, it is completely two worlds - Wang Dazhui "ho ho" smiled and said: "Young master, is that tall woman the nurse of the emperor's grandson, tsk." The words that didn't come out of his mouth were: "Tsk, those two big must have enough milk, and they won't kill the emperor's grandson." ”

Zhang Yuan said "um", thinking: "Ke Yinyue has been by Zhu Youxiao's side for more than ten years, and she should love Zhu Youxiao, and she is also looking forward to Zhu Youxiao being able to inherit the throne after being the emperor's grandson. ”

Zhang Yuan and the three of them went around from the North Street of the Imperial City to the east of the Imperial City, crossed the East Chang'an Street, and entered the East Gongsheng Gate, Zhang Yuan saw that it was still early, and first went to the military department to visit Qi Biaojia, although Qi Biaojia fell this time, but did not go back to Shaoxing, stayed with his father Qi Chengjiao to continue studying, preparing for the examination three years later, sitting idle here in Qi Biaojia for a while, Qi Chengjiao came back from the lobby of the military department, Zhang Yuan asked Qi Chengjiao about the flintlock pistol that Xu Guangqi's disciple Sun Yuanhua sent to the Arsenal Division of the Ministry of War, but Qi Chengjiao didn't know that there was such a thing as a flintlock pistol, and said: " I asked clearly, but the military department is also short of silver and food, and it is not easy to replace the bird guns on a large scale. ”

Zhang Yuan said: "For the time being, there is no need for large-scale replacement, but the newly cast muskets can be built according to this every year, and a large number of them can be replaced in a few years." ”

Qi Chengjiao shook his head and said: "Making a new-style bird gun is by no means so easy for Zhang Xiu to say, it needs to be discussed by the ministry, the so-called ministerial discussion is that the official of the military department and the officials above the fifth grade of the military department discuss together, and the new bird gun is not easy to pass the ministerial meeting." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "I also know that it is difficult to act, but the situation in Liaodong is pressing, and I expected that within three years, there will be a big war in Liaodong." ”

Qi Biaojia said on the side: "Father, my son has seen the flintlock pistol, and the ignition is fast, which is indeed more convenient than the bird gun that ignites the fire rope. ”

Qi Chengjiao said: "I will ask me clearly, and I will order the soldiers of the Arsenal Division to test the firing, and if it wins, I will propose a proposal." ”

Zhang Yuan is a little helpless, although he is the champion and the first, but the impact on national affairs is still extremely limited, it is very laborious to promote flintlock pistols, the road to save the country, there is a long way to go, fortunately, the national salvation plan is still in steady progress, he finally has a foothold in the court, be bold, be careful, don't worry, you can always find a way out - Qi Chengjiao left Zhang Yuan to eat, Zhang Yuan resigned, he wanted to go to the same hall to meet the teacher Yang Lian, Yang Lian had prepared wine and food and was waiting for him to come, the teacher and the student sat down to drink, and talked about the state affairs of the Ming Dynasty, Yang Lian asked: " I heard that Zheng Yang's surname is going to give you the courtyard house of Dashi Yongfang? ”

Zhang Yuan smiled bitterly: "This is really a gift from Zheng Yang's surname, how can students accept it." ”

Yang Lian laughed and said, "Zheng Yang's surname is bad for your reputation, I know you will never accept it, you are not that kind of foolish person." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "The student heard that there are rumors that the Zheng clan in Beijing will be unfavorable to the East Palace——"

Yang Lian immediately said: "Have you heard about Jie Zi too, there is nothing to come from, for some reason, the Zheng family has a close relationship with the Red Seal Sect in the Gyeonggi area, and has been waiting for an opportunity to endanger the East Palace. ”

Zhang Yuan asked: "Is there really a red feudal religion?" ”

Yang Lian said: "Of course there is, but the mystery is not known." ”

Zhang Yuan thought to himself: "Judging from the historical attack cases, there are many doubts, and it is incomprehensible that Concubine Zheng Guifei, who was born in Gongdou, would be so brainless. said: "Teacher, rest assured, the prince is the prince of a country, blessed by the gods, and the young people are just jumping off the beam." ”

Yang Lian said: "The emperor's holy body is healthy, and the junior is naturally powerless, once -" did not go further.

Zhang Yuan said: "The Zheng family is wishful thinking, and the ministers of the DPRK and China cannot tolerate the Zheng family's misconduct." ”

"Not really." Yang Lian said: "There are many Zheng clan henchmen among the Beijing officials, and these people are also afraid of liquidating them after the East Palace ascends the throne, so the Zheng clan's power should not be underestimated. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded yes, the late Ming Dynasty party dispute can be said to be caused by the Wanli Emperor, if the Wanli Emperor had set up his eldest son Zhu Changluo as the crown prince early, then there would not have been a dispute over the national capital that lasted for more than ten years, and there would be no formation of the Donglin Party and Zhejiang, Chu, and Qi three parties that are incompatible. Needless to say, the Donglin Party must be reused, and the backbone of the three parties will not be happy at that time - Zhang Yuan of course supports the East Palace, and there is no way out to support Zheng Guifei and King Fu, Yang Lian is very happy, Zhang Yuan's current influence is far above his household department, although Zhang Yuan does not belong to Donglin, but he is definitely Donglin's powerful helper.

When it was nearly a drum, Zhang Yuan said goodbye to his teacher Yang Lian, hired a car to go back to the East Fourth Archway, the wheels were rolling, the spring breeze was intoxicated, Zhang Yuan looked at the night scene outside the car window, and thought: "Ming, I am going to officially go to the Hanlin Academy to sit in the hall, well, go to work." ”
