Chapter 638: The Brocade Conference
For three days after the marriage, Yan Hong stayed at Lan Zhen's place, and the endless sweet scenery with Lu Lanzhen made Lan Zhen feel like she was in a dream. When she was asleep, she had to hug her husband tightly, Yan Hong asked her why, and she said: "Xianggong is too good to me, I'm a little scared." I'm afraid it's a dream, since I met Xianggong, I often have such a dream, and when I wake up from the dream, Xianggong is gone. The concubine is afraid that she is still dreaming, so she has to hold Xianggong firmly, so that she wakes up from a dream, and Xianggong will not be gone. ”
When Yan Hong heard this, he was also a little distressed. To be honest, the combination between himself and Lu Lanzhen is actually more important in political marriage. But she is infatuated, how can she bear her? So he comforted: "Maybe one day I will be a mother, why do you still talk about these children." Don't worry, Xianggong will not fly away. ”
When he returned to the door on the third day, Lu Bing saw his daughter's smiling appearance, and he was also happy, it seems that Yan Hong, the dog, still knows the importance and does not dare to treat his daughter slowly. I heard that he often played some obscene tricks in the boudoir, and it seems that he didn't use it for his daughter. Seeing the girl's attachment to her husband, I felt a little lost in my heart, it seems that the woman is not left, and it is someone else's person after all.
But after all, it is also a love for the house and Wu, and Governor Lu's opinion of Yan Hong is a little better, and he instructed the kitchen to prepare supplements for his daughter and aunt. In addition to the words, he also mentioned a few words, young people should pay attention to moderation and not be too greedy. The embarrassed Lan Zhen's face was red, and although Yan Hong's face was like a city wall, he was also a little embarrassed.
After chatting a few more words, Lu Bing sent his daughter to the back house to meet those aunts, and pulled Yan Hong to the study by himself. After the two of them sat down. Lu Bingdao: "Hong'er." Now you and I are family. It's much easier to talk and do things. I don't hide some things from you, although this brocade guard is the pro-army of the Son of Heaven, but I have been running the country for many years, I said that this position is yours, and others will not want to take it away. But you also have to be more competitive, interact more with some people in the guard, and control all the people, money, and power, that is, someone wants to take your position. He couldn't stand it. ”
Yan Hong said: "Everything depends on the cultivation of your old man, father-in-law, the child is only a shallow learner, and I hope you will give you more guidance in the future." ”
Lu Bingdao: "My precious girl is all yours, if the old man doesn't guide you, who can he point?" Come and see. As he spoke, I saw him take out a roster from his sleeve and hand it to Yan Hong. There are many officials in the Jinyi Guard, and there are countless chief officials at all levels, but they can really be called my confidants. It's all on this roster. Some of the people above are in important positions in the guard. Some people are lowly and powerful, and some people are inconspicuous, but they have an elite army, or they are extraordinarily effective. You must have a good relationship with these people, they are the cornerstone of the entire Jinyi Guard, as long as you control them, you can be as stable as Mount Tai. No matter the wind and rain, you can not move. ”
Yan Hong hurriedly thanked: "Thank you father-in-law for your generous gift." However, your old man is in his prime, and his son-in-law can learn from you slowly. ”
Lu Bing shook his head and said, "It's not right for you to think like this." People are not good for a thousand days, flowers are not red for a hundred days, in case the old man suffers an accident one day, but you can't control the brocade clothes, is our master's territory, give it to others? You don't have a lot of time, give me a good study and remember it carefully. If you don't understand, ask and say whatever you want. Don't be afraid of making mistakes, just afraid that the people in the brocade guard won't remember you. Got it? ”
Yan Hong said: "Thank you father-in-law for your love, my son-in-law has written it down." ”
Lu Bingdao: "Five days later, it's time for our Weili to discuss matters. You used to leave early, or you weren't there, or you dozed off and didn't even have your ears with you. This time, you will bring me ears and mouths, and you can say whatever you want. What I want is for you to be a blockbuster, as for this one, whether it is a place or not, it is easy to do. You are not Liu Shouyou, so you won't say those inconsequential words and lose the face of the old man. ”
Yan Hong said: "Father-in-law, rest assured, the son-in-law will definitely live up to his mission." ”
Lu Bing smiled: "That's good." Your two brothers-in-law are all unsuccessful things, and I am afraid that they will not even be able to keep the family business in the future. I'm also a father, I can't leave them alone, and you have to take care of them a little more in the future. ”
Yan Hong said: "This matter is natural, fighting tiger brothers, going into battle father and son, since the two brothers-in-law are their own relatives, how can they not take care of them." ”
Lu Bing said again: "I see that the Wuju Township Test is about to open in October. Since you are going to take charge of the Jinyi Guard, you must have a samurai reputation. Are you going to take the exam, or are you going to donate a martial arts student? If you want to donate to the prisoners, it is naturally more refreshing, but the Wuju people are more right. However, the Ming Dynasty's emphasis on literature and light on military force is not a big deal. The old man can do it for you in this township's trial school, as well as the affairs of the prisoners' graduation. It's not a difficult thing to get left and right. ”
Yan Hong has always been most afraid of exams, thinking that the Wuxiang exam must be run in public, which is so troublesome. Hurriedly said: "Let's donate, donate." There is a father-in-law who is still unemployed. ”
Lu Bing snorted coldly: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. The old man knows, you go. ”
Yan Hong returned to his house and accompanied Lan Zhen that night. He also had an idea to accompany Lan Zhen for a few more days, one was to satisfy Governor Lu, and the other was to leave this good person to Lan Zhen to do, which was also the best of both worlds. Sure enough, Lan Zhen abides by the etiquette law in the boudoir, where can she stop a tiger and wolf general like Yan Hong, and after a few days, she has already collapsed.
Five days later, Yan Hong got up early in the morning, Lu Lanzhen waited for him to freshen up, and then instructed: "Xianggong has to accompany the other sisters tonight." Otherwise, the younger sisters should hate to monopolize the favor of the father-in-law, and my eldest woman will not be a good person. If you break the rules from me, it will be difficult to manage them in the future, and don't make me embarrassed. ”
Yan Hong nodded and wrote it down, secretly happy in his heart, but praised on his lips: "Lan Zhen, you have such a mind, how can you be uneasy for my husband?" Then he put on his clothes, rode straight to the Yamen of the Jinyi Guard.
These brocade clothes are even more respectful to him. In the past, he was the eldest grandson of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and everyone respected his grandfather and father's power. Now, he is the son-in-law of Lu Dadu, and the fool knows that this will be his top boss in the future, so he is even more attentive.
When I entered the lobby of the White Tiger, I saw that dozens of chairs had been set up. On top of the Tiger case, Lu Bing sat high, saw Yan Hong coming, nodded with a smile: "You came very early today, this is very good." Although there are not so many annoying rules in the Jinyi Guard Yamen, if you want to get ahead, you must be diligent first. In today's meeting, there is an old man to support you, so you can just say anything. ”
Yan Hong arched his hand and said, "Thank you, father-in-law." ”
The two sat in front of the hall, speechless to each other. Not long after, another person came to see the governor, but it was Liu Shouyou. Yan Hong secretly thought: When will this guy be reinstated to work? It is positive, too. It's just that the early birds are eaten by insects, and the early insects are eaten by the birds for a while, but it depends on which of our brothers comes out. Following, the officials of all the halls came one after another, and the last one was Mu Denggao, the old man Mu, as usual.
After everyone sat down, they first said hello to Lu Bing. Zhu Xixiao, the Fusi of Nanzhen, arched his hand and said: "I don't know what the Metropolitan Governor Tiger has to call a meeting of officials, what are his orders?" ”
Lu Bing smiled: "There are no orders." There has been no church for many days, and everyone can only report the military situation of this guard. In addition, if you have any ideas, you can also talk about them and submit them to colleagues for public discussion. ”
This kind of regular meeting, according to the noun of Yan Donglai's era, is called the fairy meeting, there is no theme, and it is held wherever it goes. Old Man Mu was already about to snore, and Zhu Xixiao, the Fusi of Nanzhen, was also slightly closed, silent, and it seemed that he was about to go to talk about the avenue with Zhou Gong.
There were a few other court officials who spoke, nothing more than some daily administration, but there was nothing new. Among them, he was in charge of the pacification of thousands of households in Shanxi and Shaanxi, and the Tartar official Sai Ha came out, and he originally wanted to say something. But when he saw Yan Hong sitting, he opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound.
Liu Shouyou glared at Yan Hong, and his eyes were almost bursting with fire. Since ancient times, the hatred of killing one's father and taking one's wife have not been shared. In Liu Shouyou's opinion, without Yan Hong, he would definitely be able to marry Miss Lu, which is fair competition, and he must win. It must have been the other party who deceived Miss Lu with rhetoric, so that she couldn't distinguish between truth and falsehood, and the marriage was not human. Now that the original form is inevitably revealed, maybe poor Miss Lu has been tortured in the past few days, and life is worse than death.
In Liu Shouyou's mind, he decided that Yan Hong was a big villain, if he wasn't afraid of Lu Bing's military law, he would have pounced on him and beaten Yan Hong badly.
Seeing that there was nothing new in everyone's speeches, Liu Shouyou arched his hand and said: "The governor of the capital, there is something to say about his humble position." Lu Bing said: "Liu Yanshi, if you have something to say, just talk about it, but the governor of Bendu advises you, before speaking, please consider more." Although he is in the guard, he is not afraid of leaking the news, but if he speaks nonsense, he will also be punished by military law. ”
This is also what Liu Shou said too much recently, and Lu Bing had to give him a preventive shot. In fact, if it weren't for Zhu Xizhong, the Duke of Chengguo, who came forward and said a few good words for Liu Shouyou, and entrusted him with favors, this famous disciple would have to think about it behind closed doors at home. Unexpectedly, this person was still unwilling to be honest, and as soon as he was released, he was about to speak again, but Lu Bing couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart.
Liu Shouyou didn't care about this, and said proudly: "Thank you Dadu." I think that at present, the will of the heavenly family will open the sea, and the court will trade, although the specific measures are still in the minds of the ministers, but from the perspective of the general trend, it has become a foregone conclusion. There is not only the opening of the maritime affairs, which is related to the reputation of the imperial court, the treasury and the people's livelihood, but we are among them, but there is a lot to be done. ”
Liu Shouyou's words were sonorous and powerful, full of energy, and all the officials of the Jinyi Guard Hall were all in the same place. It was Yan Hong, who originally had the attitude of watching jokes, but he couldn't help but be surprised. This guy was so mixed up at Dongbianmen Wharf at the beginning, but now why has he changed his sex, and he speaks in an orderly manner, and he seems to be secretly in line with me? Could it be that his traverser dog-headed military master has finally opened his mind? It's not good, I have to find a way to kill that competitor. (To be continued......)
