Chapter 36: The Dispute over the Governors
,
Seeing that Da Chun led people up, Yinzhen turned around and asked the girl: "What is the relationship between you and those girls, how do you want to save them?" ”
The girl smiled sweetly, "If you see unevenness on the road, I can't take action?" ”
This woman has a bit of taste, not like an ordinary lady, Yinzhen smiled: "You are not like a woman in the south of the Yangtze River, but more like a woman in the northwest, and you are not right, you should be a combination of the advantages of the women of the south of the Yangtze River and the northwest." ”
"You praise people for being very innovative." The girl smiled and stomped her left foot, "Are the women in the northwest like me, don't bind their feet, don't read the "Four Books of Women", and don't learn from women's red." She said and glanced back, and saw that Xu Xingke and the servants had been restrained, so she showed a charming smile towards Yinzhen, "I'm very happy today, thank you, Fourteenth Master." With that, he turned and jumped into the carriage.
Does she know me? Yinzhen couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly looked down at the ornaments on her body, she didn't wear anything to reveal her identity, how did she recognize me? Looking up to ask, the carriage had already started, and he raised his voice and asked, "Why don't I know you?" ”
"Didn't you just know each other?" The carriage was gone, leaving only a string of silver bell-like laughter.
This female elf is eccentric, but extremely rebellious, looking at her carriage, she knows that it is not from a small family, and she doesn't take it seriously knowing her identity, Yinzhen suddenly has a kind feeling in her heart, and she looks at the carriage in the distance with a slight sense of amazement, but Hai Feng comes forward with a smile, "Master, do you want people to follow?" ”
After hesitating, Yinzhen said: "No, she is not the kind of woman who is raised in the deep boudoir, and she will naturally see you again if she is fated." ”
Seeing Xu Xingke who was escorted over, Yinzhen suddenly lost interest, waved his hand and said, "Let him go." ”
Seeing that Xu Xingke was still looking incredible, Yinzhen said angrily: "Go back and bring a message to Xu Jun, just say that the fourteenth master is now in Shanghai, let him take care of my family." ”
Xu Jun is Xu Qianxue's youngest son, Yinzhen has recognized it since he was a child, as soon as he heard that the young man in front of him was the fourteenth master, Xu Xingke was startled, he really . Mom didn't look at the yellow calendar when she went out, she was unlucky, and she had to go back to the house, so he knelt down and kowtowed to say goodbye.
"Please be excused, how much does this girl owe you?" Yinzhen asked lazily.
Xu Xingke sweated on his back, and said: "It's not much, it's a blessing for her mother and daughter to meet the fourteenth master, where do you dare to ask for money." ”
Yinzhen didn't appreciate it, "Don't mind, just for these two small dollars, the fourteenth master is not worth it, how much, say a number of reading pavilions." ”
After smashing his mouth, Xu Xingke said with great difficulty: "Back to the fourteenth master, it's fifty taels." ”
"Give it to him." Yinzhen waved his hand, and then beckoned to the child, "Yes, you have the courage to know how to protect your mother at a young age, how about it, are you willing to follow the fourteenth master?" ”
The child's eyes looked at Yinzhen, and he hesitated for a while before kneeling down and said, "I am willing, but what should my mother do?" ”
Yinzhen said with a smile, "This is easy to do, there are many errands in the Fourteenth Master's Mansion, so ask your mother to go together." Bayi Chinese~"

After this cooperation, he also opened his eyes, the government and business cooperation is the real way to get rich quickly, he knows that the opportunity is hard to find, so he decided to take the Kali in the Liangjiang governorship, and then build a hundred big ships, quickly expand their strength and power,
The reason why the wind was released in advance was to show strength, and secondly, to deter other fleets in Shanghai, so that some small bows would cling to themselves.
Zhang Yuanlong was looking forward to his future in his heart, and the second housekeeper hurriedly ran in, "Master, the third lady is back." ”
Jiaojiao? Isn't she in Jiangning? It's not the end of the year yet, why did you come back? Zhang Yuanlong got up and drove a few maids away, and then walked out of the gate, and the girl who had just broken up with Yinzhen trotted all the way into the yard, "Dad, I'm back." ”
This girl's name is Zhang Mengjiao, Zhang Yuanlong's youngest daughter, and his favorite daughter, she has been smart and clever since she was a child, and willful, rebellious, since she was a child, she has resisted the education of everyone in Jiangnan, she doesn't look at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc., but she is particularly interested in the subset of classics and history.
Parents and children are also particular about fate, although the palms and backs of the hands are meat, but after all, there is a difference, Zhang Yuanlong has been particularly fond of this young girl since she was a child, and she is used to her, not only to invite her to the best husband, but also often take her to the sea to travel, anyway, there is no shortage of money, his Zhang family's daughter is not worried about marrying, Zhang Mengjiao grew up in this unrestrained atmosphere, and also developed a lively and active temperament, not only broad-minded but also resourceful and decisive.
Seeing Zhang Mengjiao trotting all the way without rules, Zhang Yuanlong asked anxiously: "Why did you come back so early, there is nothing to do in the Reading Pavilion?" ”
"Daddy, what can happen to your daughter?" Zhang Mengjiao's nose wrinkled slightly, and she said coquettishly: "People miss you, what's the matter, Daddy is not happy?" ”
"Happy, why aren't you happy, come into the house." Zhang Yuanlong smiled and let his daughter into the house, but waved his hand to drive everyone out, he knew that there must be something wrong with his daughter rushing back so early.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Yuanlong said, "I don't know how to send someone to carry a letter when I come back, this is far away, you, you are all blamed for your father who has spoiled you since childhood." ”
Zhang Mengjiao smiled, "I know how to pull, I don't dare to pull next time, I know that my father loves Jiaojiao." ”
"You—." Zhang Yuanlong smiled and pointed at his daughter, but he was helpless.
"Dad, my daughter got the news that Yu Zhun, the governor of Jiangsu, and Yi Sigong, the political envoy, have all been dismissed." Zhang Mengjiao made two cups of tea as she spoke, and only after sitting down did she say: "The new governor of Jiangsu is Zhang Boxing, and the political envoy is Chen Pengnian, the former prefect of Suzhou. ”
After pondering for a long time, and completely digesting the news, Zhang Yuanlong said, "This is a good thing, it shows that the Holy Lord values Lord Karma very much, is there anything wrong?" ”
"On the surface, it's not." Zhang Mengjiao picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly, "Although Yu Zhun and Yi Sigong were deposed, Chen Pengnian, the prefect of Suzhou who was impeached by Lord Ka, did not fall but rose, and temporarily appointed as a political envoy, which is intriguing, Zhang Boxing, the new governor of Jiangsu, is also a Han man, and it is not simple."
