Liu Chengfeng listened to Queen Zhang's words and felt a little bitter in his heart, this Queen Zhang was really a little unkind, and came directly to find herself as a reference. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But then again, in Queen Zhang's opinion, the matter of recruiting a son-in-law is really a first-class major event in the world, and she doesn't have much to say on the emperor's side, as for the two brothers of her mother's family, they have never been very reliable. The only one who can still speak is Liu Chengfeng, a fake son-in-law, at least Liu Chengfeng is a person who can make ideas in Queen Zhang's mind.

Therefore, this kind of bullshit is naturally Liu Cheng's turn.

Liu Chengfeng had to sit obediently, Queen Zhang nagged, Queen Zhang finally had a little smile on her face, and said to Liu Chengfeng: "Actually, the palace is also hesitating now, and now it seems that after those nobles, there are really few people with surnames, either the surname is not good, or the surname is crooked and cracked, hey...... Let's talk about it, this palace is just looking for a colt, why is it so difficult. In fact, this palace invited you to come, it is to discuss one thing with you, this palace read a newspaper yesterday, and the newspaper said that there are quite a few young handsome people in the Hanlin Academy recently, these are Shu Jishi, and they have not insulted Princess Taikang, you said that if you choose a horse from the Hanlin Academy, is it okay? ”

As soon as she asked, Liu Chengfeng immediately understood what Empress Zhang was thinking, and couldn't help but be shocked, this queen didn't look like a fuel-efficient lamp, and actually hit the idea to the top of the Hanlin Academy, most of the young people in the Hanlin Courtyard are Shu Jishi, what is Shu Jishi? That's the pride of the Son of Heaven, it can be said that any one is an unlimited future, this is by no means empty words, the cabinet scholars are basically Shu Ji Shi in, the imperial court once every three years to take a imperial examination, three years only a few Shu Ji Shi, more than ten years down, Shu Ji Shi is only a few dozen people, these dozens of people's identities are the most noble, as long as they do not commit any major problems in principle, the most inferior can also be mixed with a feudal official, luckier directly into the cabinet to preside over the court.

And what about the colt? According to the ancestral system, a horse is not allowed to be an official, it is okay to be a military attaché, but a civil official is not successful, that is to say, if anyone is to be a horse, the identity of this Jishi will be gone, and there will be no career from then on, and he will be depressed all his life, and he will be managed every day, and he will not be happy to be changed.

Of course, Empress Zhang knows this situation, in fact, if she lowers some requirements and looks for a horse in the Guanzheng Shi, maybe a few people are really excited, but if she wants to find it in the Jishi, will people be willing?

So Empress Zhang called Liu Chengfeng, Liu Chengfeng is the commander of Jinyiwei after all, Empress Zhang just wants to let Liu Chengfeng match, no matter what, this Princess Taikang must marry as soon as possible, and at the same time not be too cold, the object of choice is either the top wealthy family, or a doctor who reads poetry and books, just like that, Queen Zhang still feels that she has insulted her own Princess Taikang, how can she lower her requirements?

That's it...... It's hard enough to be embarrassed.

Liu Chengfeng didn't feel good, and said with a wry smile: "Niangniang, this matter can't be rushed, those Jishi are different from others......

Empress Zhang said: "It's different? Don't you still dislike the princess? That's it, this palace doesn't complain, in fact, I also know your difficulties, matchmaking this kind of thing, it really embarrasses you, in fact, this palace also wants you to help this palace go to Zhang Luo Zhangluo, to see if there are any unmarried Ji Jishi, as for the rest, there is no need to trouble you. ”

Liu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that it was just like this...... If it's just this, I'm not afraid of anything, almost all of them are married, and Queen Zhang's idea is only afraid that it will fall through.

He hurriedly responded: "This is not a problem, don't worry, I will definitely get things done." ”

Empress Zhang sighed, said a lot of words to Liu Chengfeng, and then said: "The cabinet of the Marquis of Shouning has already nodded, presumably the will is only a few days, and he can have it thanks to you." Yes, when the time comes, the palace will set up a family banquet in the palace, and you will be invited to eat and drink at that time. ”

In fact, Liu Chengfeng already knew about this news, and said with a busy smile: "It's good that Niangniang is happy, and Weichen will arrive soon." But I don't think Princess Taikang is in a very good mood lately, right? ”

He deliberately turned the topic to Princess Taikang, mainly because he remembered Princess Taikang's words and wanted to test Queen Zhang's meaning again.

Empress Zhang frowned and said, "This girl, her mind is always incomprehensible. Her surname is known to the palace, do you know that there have been rumors in the palace recently? When Empress Zhang talked about the rumors, she deliberately glanced at Liu Chengfeng with a deep meaning.

Liu Chengfeng pretended to be surprised: "What kind of rumor is it?" ”

Empress Zhang said: "It was said that two or three years ago, weren't you involved in a case of right and wrong?" Princess Taikang was bathing in the bathroom, and you were deceived into hiding in the bath, and later clarified, in fact, you didn't see anything, right? ”

Here it comes...... Liu Chengfeng said to himself in his heart, and he couldn't help but be a little nervous, in fact, if he said that he didn't see it, it was false, the real situation was seen by what should be seen, and what should not be seen was also seen. It's just that no matter whether you see this kind of thing or not, you must deny it flatly, it's not that Liu Chengfeng is not heroic enough, in fact, it's the emperor and Queen Zhang, even if you know what Liu Chengfeng saw, then I hope Liu Chengfeng's answer is a resolute denial. It's one thing to see it or not, the most important thing is not to ruin the reputation, otherwise where will this royal face go?

When Empress Zhang asked, Liu Chengfeng hurriedly said: "Niangniang Mingjian, Weichen really didn't see anything. ”

Empress Zhang said in a flat tone: "Yes, this palace knows that you haven't seen anything, this palace believes you, but there is such a rumor in the palace, let's tell you the truth, this palace has asked someone to investigate, this is Princess Taikang released by herself, I know her thoughts......"

Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but feel a little weak, and hurriedly said: "Niangniang knows what His Royal Highness thinks?" ”

Empress Zhang said: "She wanted to deliberately not marry, so she spread this news to scare others." ”

Liu Chengfeng exhaled, it was really good that Empress Zhang could think like this, he said with a smile: "Her Royal Highness the princess is actually not too old, and the mother doesn't need to be in a hurry." ”

Empress Zhang said with a cold face: "It's already over eighteen years old, isn't this still a big deal?" You don't have to say good things for her, this matter is in charge of this palace. ”

Liu Chengfeng didn't know how to pick up the stubble, and then he didn't know what to say, so he said goodbye and came out of Kunning Palace, and couldn't help but take a breath to be regarded as fixing the gods, the housework in the palace was really messy enough, and he almost fell into it, and it was better to try to be less mixed in the future.

He thought so in his heart, but his thoughts couldn't help but drift to the Hanlin Academy, hoping that there would not be an unmarried Shuji in the Hanlin Academy, as for why, he couldn't say, what to say...... This princess is looking for a man, why does she always have a sour mentality?

With a sigh, he said no more. Immediately thinking of a recital in his sleeve, he cheered up and summoned a eunuch to ask, "Is the early dynasty over?" ”

"Grandpa, it's over, Your Majesty has moved to the Zhengxin Hall to see the cabinet's proposed vote."

Liu Chengfeng quickly went to the Zhengxin Palace, and when he arrived outside the hall, someone was announced, and Zhu Youzhang's voice came from inside: "Come in." ”

Liu Chengfeng walked in quickly and saluted: "Weichen has seen Your Majesty." ”

Zhu Youzhu was carrying a pen to write something on a proposed ticket, when he raised his eyes and glanced at Liu Chengfeng, and said in a very ordinary tone: "What? From the Kunning Palace? ”

Liu Chengfeng nodded and said, "Yes, I just came over, I listened to Empress Zhang's teachings, and I thought that Your Majesty was here, so I came to take a look." ”

Zhu Youzhu sighed: "She is also taking precautions, don't talk about this, I heard that you are thinking about something in Fusi in Beizhen, right?" ”

He said it unintentionally, but it made Liu Chengfeng a little awe-inspiring, his every move was actually in the eyes of the emperor for a long time, needless to say, this must be a quiet whistleblower from Dongchang, he was busy saying: "Yes, Weichen is really thinking about something." ”

"Huh?" In fact, Liu Chengfeng thought about it, there are really few people in the world who don't take it seriously, after all, this guy has a lot of ghost ideas, and many whimsical ideas have excellent results when they are verified, and even Zhu Youzhu can't help but look forward to it, he smiled slightly, and said: "Tell me, what are you thinking." ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "Make money." ”

"Making money?" Zhu Youzhu pursed his lips, threw the Zhu pen on the imperial case, put away the cabinet's proposed vote, and said with his hands behind his back: "You are now the commander of the Jinyi Guard?" Still thinking about making money? ”

Liu Chengfeng said: "Actually, Weichen mainly wants to increase the revenue of the treasury. ”

As soon as he said this, Zhu Youzhu also showed some interest. But it's just a little interest, in fact, Zhu Youzhu is not worried about the emptiness of the treasury, the treasury in recent years is very full, unlike previous years, there will always be a deficit, which makes people anxious, so Zhu Youzhang's demand for the imperial court revenue is not too urgent.

Liu Chengfeng said with a straight face: "Your Majesty may not be impressed with the increase in the imperial court's annual income, but Weichen thinks that increasing the annual income is the top priority at the moment. Your Majesty thinks about it, in the past, there was almost no surplus in the treasury, and the little silver of the imperial court, except for the occasional relief of famines, or some military salaries for the army, and then some rewards and salaries of officials and the expenses of the palace, in fact, there was not much money. But has Your Majesty ever thought that since the revenue of the national treasury has increased greatly, the expenditure has also increased a lot, for example, this year, the cost of building roads, expanding the new army, and repairing the river embankments in various places adds up to millions of taels of silver, does Your Majesty know why? ”
