Mu Bin said happily: "It is true that there is news, and the palace has just released a rumor, and the old man is only afraid that he will be ready to go to the pro-army yamen." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Hearing this news, although Liu Chengfeng was quite confident, he couldn't help but be happy at this time, and said, "Congratulations, my lord." ”

Wen Zheng looked at Mu Bin with a smile and said, "My lord is really reluctant to leave this brocade guard, and to tell the truth." Since the adults have arrived at the house, it is better to come and drink tea, and come to celebrate the adults. ”

Mu Bin nodded his head in response, and asked someone to serve tea and pastries, because they had all eaten dinner, so everyone didn't move the melons, fruits, and pastries on the table, and started chatting over tea.

After an hour, Mu Bin saw that the time was almost up, stood up, glanced at Liu Chengfeng, and said: "Liu Chengshi, thanks to you today, this kindness Mu Mou remembers." ”

He said it solemnly, Liu Chengfeng naturally couldn't be cheeky and said that he would remember the Zhi'en Tu Bao next time, but he said very hypocritically: "What should be done, what should be done, adults don't have to be polite." ”

said goodbye to Mu Bin, and said nothing all night.

As soon as the Chinese New Year arrives, the business of Beauty Square and Jubaolou has stopped, but even so, in the year before, the surplus of the New Year has already been earned, whether it is Jubaolou or Beauty's Square have specially done activities, coupled with the stimulation of New Year's goods, the money earned in a month has exceeded the sum of a quarter. And now, whether it is businessmen, noblewomen, and ladies, they all go to the New Year, and the only thing that is still running is to learn and report.

However, the business of Xueerbao has indeed been affected a little, but for Liu Chengfeng, it is actually nothing, and the Chinese New Year is like this, even he, a busy person who does not touch the ground, has to take a break, let alone others.

In the blink of an eye, it passed the fifteenth day of the first month, the sky gradually warmed up, it is said that the peach blossoms of the temple outside the city are in full bloom early, so there are a lot of tourists who go out of the city, but most of the people who can go out are literati and ink writers, and now the workshops everywhere have started, and the ordinary people have neither this mood nor this time.

The Jingshi gradually became lively, and in the early morning of the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Liu Chengfeng got up early in the morning, put on the court clothes, and prepared to go to the court.

This is a big court meeting, civil and military officials must participate in all the five grades or above, so Liu Chengfeng must also go, but the most anticipated thing at this time is the emperor's internal transfer of the pro-army, and even the reward of the last Mingjiao case, he sat in the flower hall and ate tea, and used a few pastries, and Bi'er brought a hat for Liu Chengfeng, and said: "Your Royal Highness asked me to say, saying that I have made an appointment with the eldest lady to go to the beauty shop today, if the Hou Ye comes back, you don't have to wait for them, but I am afraid that I will not be able to return until the evening." ”

Liu Chengfeng knew that the Beauty Square had been closed for fifteen consecutive days, and it was a lot of time to say that it was too much, and it was a lot to say less, but the women and ladies who were slowly used to going to the Beauty Square for shopping and leisure were all holding their breath, this thing was actually addictive, and it may not be taken seriously for men, but for women, especially the women who were only in the cave at this time, it was very attractive.

Liu Chengfeng nodded and said: "I'm afraid that I won't come back so early today, I've been idle for so long, I don't know how many chores I have accumulated, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to come back until midnight, you go and tell them, just say that they go to play, don't have any worries." ”

Bi'er couldn't help but smile with her mouth covered.

Liu Chengfeng swallowed a small piece of pastry and asked, "What are you laughing at?" ”

Bi'er said seriously: "The slave didn't laugh anything, but she just felt that Hou Ye was a little weird." ”

Eccentric...... Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but look at his clothes, didn't find anything abnormal, and asked, "What's weird?" ”

Bi'er said: "Master Hou, the ladies and ladies in each house, who go to the Beauty Workshop, have to be told a few words of gossip by those masters, but Master Hou is generous, what to say to take care of yourself, there is no need to worry about this." ”

Liu Chengfeng smiled dumbly, in fact, now the sequelae of this beauty shop has come out, although the beauty shop is a good place, there is nothing to worry about for those old men, but what is frequent, I can't help but frown, if I go a few times a month, I'm afraid that no one will say anything, but now many people in the Beijing division have actually reached the point of every three or five times, which makes some masters a little dissatisfied, but they are not satisfied, at most they will say a few words, after all, this thing has nothing to do, It's just a matter of subsections.

After eating and drinking, Liu Chengfeng stood up, scratched Bi'er's nose, and said: "As far as you are troubled, the Hou Mansion has the rules of the Hou Mansion, why do you have to be the same as others?" Go and inform the stable, and I'll go over with half a pillar of incense. ”

Bi'er blushed with shame, and went quickly.

Liu Chengfeng straightened his clothes, and then went directly to the middle gate, his steps were not fast, so that the horse room was ready for time, and when he arrived at the middle gate, the carriage had been prepared, and several captains on duty were already waiting here, Liu Chengfeng stepped on the high stool and got into the carriage, and the carriage was surrounded by seven or eight guards and quickly went to the noon gate.

The noon gate is very noisy, after all, it is just after the New Year, the festivities have not faded away, everyone has seen each other, have said auspicious words, there are a lot of new things for the New Year, not to mention that Mu Bin invited guests to dinner, the other most sensational thing is that someone from the Shanhaiguan in Liaodong came back to report on his work.

The identity of the person who came back to report on his work is very special, in fact, he is also a person in the Jinyi Guard, this person is the previous commander of the Jinyi Guard, named Wantong, is the younger brother of Wan Guifei, so he was recommended by Wan Guifei to serve, during his tenure, this Wan Commander and this Wan Guifei are almost a nostril out of breath, Wan Guifei was able to extend her tentacles to the outer court at that time, in fact, it is not unrelated to Wantong.

It was this Wantong, after Zhu Youzhu succeeded to the throne, he naturally found a reason to demote him from the Beijing Division, but Wan Guifei was also Zhu Youzhang's stepmother no matter what, so she only derogated this Wantong, and was directly sent to Liaodong, under the pretext that she was investigating Liaodong military affairs as Jinyiwei.

This kind of errand is actually the most uncomfortable, it seems to be going to Liaodong to be the emperor of the soil, in fact, it is not, in that place in Liaodong, there are many military heads, these people are not arrogant, and they have always ignored the Jinyi guards sent by the imperial court, and that place is a bitter cold place, and there are many imperial envoys, which is one of the important focal points of the imperial court.

More than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, the palace has long forgotten this Wan Qincha, if it were not for a recent incident, it would never be possible to recruit him back, with the emperor's mind, naturally it is good for this guy to be out of sight, it is best not to appear for the rest of his life, but in the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Haixi Jurchen had a chaos.

At that time, Wantong didn't know who was rectified, and under the pretext that it was the military affairs of Haixi that were relaxed, and asked him to go to inspect, who knew that this entry into the city was attacked by the rebels of the Haixi Jurchens.

The defenders were in a panic, in fact, the main military deployment of Liaodong was in the west, mainly with Duoyan Sanwei to defend against the Tile Thorns and Tatars from the west, and the Liaodong departments, because they have always been docile to the imperial court, so it is impossible for the imperial court to transfer the elite border army to the Haixi Jurchens, and at that time, the number of defenders in the city fortress was only a thousand, and most of them were old, weak, sick and disabled, and the garrison rebels stationed here attacked fiercely, almost intending to abandon the city and surrender, but at this juncture, Wantong suddenly appeared, killed the garrison, and seized the military power, And as a messenger, he ordered to defend to the death, and stayed up for five days, until the Ming army on the Liaoyang side sent reinforcements, and finally saved the city fortress and suppressed the chaos of the Haixi Jurchens.

This battle is actually just a small-scale war, but since Emperor Hongzhi ascended the throne, there are very few wars, so this counterinsurgency is very dazzling, the governors of Liaodong have quickly sent people to send good news to the imperial court, and this Wantong is obviously running from time to time, and has made such a great contribution, it is impossible for the palace to continue to forget him, not to mention that he can be promoted and make a fortune, at least from the ghost place in Liaodong to return to the capital is certain.

Sure enough, yesterday, it is said that the emperor had made an order overnight to let Wantong return to Beijing, and quickly drew up a reward.

And what kind of person is this Wantong, everyone knows that this person is related to Wan Guifei, who is Wan Guifei, everyone naturally understands. So some people wrote against it, saying that Wantong had committed crimes in the past, but there were also people who wrote to support it, saying that no matter how bad Wan Guifei is, it is also His Majesty's mother, how can Wantong be at fault, but now after all, he has made a contribution, and His Majesty must not lose his filial piety because of this.

The latter's recital brought Xiaoyi out, and what kind of expression would it be in the palace, but I am afraid that only God knows, everyone is talking about this matter, there are those who support Wantong, and there are those who oppose it, in fact, to put it bluntly, the ministers are just arguing for the sake of arguing, and these people who are idle and panicked all day long have to find something to do.

In this era, the most important thing is filial piety, filial piety is the first of all kinds, and the name of the emperor and Wan Guifei are mother and son, Wan Guifei is not right, from the perspective of morality and etiquette, Zhu Youzhu must also serve under his knees. And now that Concubine Wan is dead, his younger brother is naturally kind to him, so he is a good emperor of benevolence and filial piety.

This kind of truth sounded ridiculous to later generations, but these voices were the most mainstream values at this time, and anyone who violated them would have to bear a lot of verbal and written criticism.
