It's incomprehensible to Zhu Houzhao's jumping thinking, jumping too fast, Qin Kan can't keep up with the rhythm.

It's just a jump, but the jump is shameless.

Zhu Houzhao looked at the bronze mirror in a daze, and said faintly: "You said that I am so handsome, why does Liu Liangnu look down on me?" And you, in terms of handsomeness, are a little worse than me, but there are always women who take a fancy to you, and even the white-haired grandmother can't escape your clutches......"

Qin Kan said with a dark face: "Your Majesty, can we not talk about the white-haired grandmother?" ”

"Okay......" Zhu Houzhao was very good at looking at his face, so he changed the topic: "You suddenly raised your middle finger in the hall just now, this middle finger ...... What does that mean? ”

Qin Kanle is happy, this is the superiority of the traverser, a gesture scolds people in person, and others don't understand the meaning yet.

"This middle finger is the etiquette of Fanbang, and the minister was wishing Yang Ting and many blessings and longevity, and being promoted to become wealthy...... Qin Kan's face did not change his color and made up nonsense.

Zhu Houzhao was obviously smarter than Qin Kan expected, he glared at Qin Kan and said, "You are a bully!" At that time, Yang Tinghe was so fiercely opposed to me making you the prince of the country, and the vicious words pointed at you, and even I couldn't stand it, you were so kind that you actually wished him many blessings and longevity at that time? ”

"Your Majesty is wishing him many blessings and longevity......"

"Come less, tell me quickly, what does the middle finger mean." Zhu Houzhao is very curious about this gesture, and he has to know why it is true.

Qin Kan sighed, and had no choice but to elaborate on the allusion to the gesture.

"Your Majesty should know that the world is not only our Ming Dynasty and the surrounding dozen or so small countries, in fact, the real world is very big. There are many countries...... In the far west, there is a continent called Europe, although Europe is small, but there are many countries, the most famous are England and France, they are the most powerful of those small countries......"

"Now that the two countries were at war for land, the English archers were so powerful that the French army suffered heavy losses, and the French army swore to defeat the English and cut off the middle fingers of the archers when they were victorious. so that they can no longer draw the strings with their bows. As a result, France unexpectedly lost the war. The French had to retreat, and the British saw each other off in front of the battle, and they all showed their middle fingers to the French troops, indicating that their middle fingers were intact. Use this as a provocation...... And then later. Fanbang's middle finger gesture gradually changed its taste. It became a man's, a symbol of the words, and showing his middle finger at someone was not just a provocation. There is a deeper sense of insult...... His Majesty, the minister was too angry at the time, and he took the liberty of giving the middle finger to Scholar Yang, but the minister was wrong. ”

Zhu Houzhao was very interested when he heard this, and suddenly said: "It turns out that the middle finger has such a wonderful use, and it really lives to learn and learn......

Qin Kan looked at him worriedly.

He was sure that Zhu Houzhao learned this trick, and when the ministers quarreled with him in the future, the stunning middle finger would definitely appear frequently.

Qinfu Flower Hall.

Yan Song, Mu Bin, Ding Shun and others gathered together, looking at Qin Kan, who was silent on the main seat, and everyone looked respectful and a little excited.

"Lord Hou, forgive the officials for saying a lot, the matter of the Duke of Jinjue, the officials think that the Lord Hou should fight." Yan Song arched towards Qin Kan.

Qin Kan shook his head silently.

Yan Song rarely gave him anything, maybe he was worried that he would lose if he said too much, maybe Qin Kan did well enough and didn't need other people's advice, but once Yan Song spoke, his words always had something in his words.

"But why do you think I have to fight for this country?" Qin Kan asked lightly.

"Hou Ye has great ambitions, but no ambitions, Xia Guan thinks that Hou Ye's two qualities are actually conflicting with each other, people with great ambitions cannot be without ambitions, this ambition does not refer to the great rebellion of the dynasty and usurpation, but the process of a person seeking fame and fortune......" Yan Song smiled, although he is now a squire in the military department, but in front of Qin Kan, he still has a trace of shyness.

"The word 'fame and fortune' sounds vulgar, and it has always been hated by literati, but Hou Ye tried to look at the whole court, those civil officials who sneered at fame and fortune, which one didn't sharpen his head to seek fame and fortune? Just the ban on the sea, you can see how selfish the civil officials are, how important fame and fortune are, they colluded with Zhejiang and Fujian businessmen, and controlled the huge profits of the private sea transportation, once anyone proposed to open the sea ban, it will inevitably become the object of their verbal criticism, this is the word 'fame and fortune', the civil officials drill fame and fortune, why can't the Hou Ye drill camp? Why avoid it? ”

Qin Kan smiled bitterly: "What is my situation in the court now, I believe that I know the best, if I have no interest in the title of the Duke of the country, it is too hypocritical, everything weighs the pros and cons, and the matter of the Duke of Jin seems to me to do more harm than good, so I don't want to do it, for the sake of the Duke of the State and the Manchu courtiers, how should I deal with myself at that time?" At the beginning, Liu Jin himself was too inflated, thinking that he could master the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, but he was not cut by a thousand knives in the end, and I really didn't want to follow in Liu Jin's footsteps. ”

Yan Song's eyes showed a little appreciation, and said: "Hou Ye is too worried, Liu Jin is flying high, and destruction is the end sooner or later, but Hou Ye is tolerant and compromises everywhere, even if he deals with the Chinese officials of the court, he has never been killed, you and Liu Jin are by no means the same, and the ending is not the same, Hou Ye is full of Lingyun's ambition, everything he wants to do is a major event that changes the fortune of the country, he is ambitious and humble, things can not be done well, without the corresponding identity, some things are difficult to do......"

"A warrant is issued from the capital to the place, and the signature behind it directly determines the difficulty of this matter, the people below hold the warrant, the signature of the prince and the signature of the prince, the attitude between the two is completely different, if the decision of the prince is completely opposite to the decision of a powerful person, the people below will naturally weigh the identity of the prince a little more, and the decision on their choice will also have some more weight......"

After Yan Song finished speaking, Mu Bin, Ding Shun and others nodded in agreement.

"Lord Hou, what Lord Yan said is true, the benefits of the Duke of the Kingdom are by no means only a few hundred more stones for the Lord Hou, nor a few more guards of honor. Although its potential benefits cannot be seen or touched, if Hou Ye ascends to that position, he will understand the subtleties......" Mu Bin said with a meaningful smile.

Qin Kan rubbed his forehead and sighed: "Let me think about this matter, how fierce the attitude of those ministers at today's court meeting is, you have also seen the title of this duke...... It's hard to argue. ”

…………

Yan Song left in advance, and only Mu Bin and Ding Shun were left in the house.

Qin Kan said with a solemn expression: "Do you two still remember Chen Qingyuan, a staff member of King Ning's Mansion?" ”

Mu Bin and Ding Shun suddenly froze and nodded silently.

This is a case that Qin Kan inadvertently pulled out when he was fighting with people from Dongchang in Nanjing, and this case is still limited to the three people in the house, and the matter is too relevant for anyone to dare to talk about. Otherwise, you won't be able to get along with your own head.

Qin Kan said slowly: "King Ning's plot to rebel is already a sure thing. That Chen Qingyuan was secretly imprisoned by the Beizhen Fusi for three years, and now it seems that he is worthless......"

With a flash of anger in his eyes, Qin Kan turned his head and said, "Ding Shun." You handled Chen Qingyuan secretly. Do it briskly. ”

"Yes."

He arched his hand towards Mu Bin again. Qin Kan still has a lot of respect for this old boss back then.

"Please arrange it for Lord Mu to send spies to Nanchang Mansion in Jiangxi. It's time for us to spread this net. ”

Mu Bin exclaimed: "Could it be that King Ning's rebellion is just around the corner?" ”

Qin Kan sneered: "The rebellion in Bazhou, chaos in the three provinces, the imperial court sent troops to suppress it, and it was money and ordnance, a battle was fought, the treasury was empty, and the soldiers and horses in the Beijing camp were also lacking, plus Liu Jin fell, Jiao Fang was executed, and the factory guards wantonly purged the eunuchs." The people of the Manchu Dynasty are unstable, the court is empty inside and outside, King Ning is an extremely ambitious person, and he will never extend the opportunity to usurp the throne to the next generation, how can he not seize such a good opportunity? ”

"What does Master Hou mean is that King Ning is now in Nanchang preparing for an incident?"

"As expected, it should be so, the rebellion in the three provinces has just been pacified, and the messenger of King Ning will send the song into Beijing, in addition to singing praises and virtues, but also to His Majesty to offer countless rare birds and beasts and fireworks for his fun, the abundance of gifts offered, far above the kings, is clearly to paralyze His Majesty and the ministers of the court, we can not help but guard."

Mu Bin got up and said: "Master Hou, don't worry, the lower officials will arrange people to go to Nanchang to secretly investigate King Ning's truth." ”

Ding Shun said: "Master Hou, my subordinates went down to say hello to Dai Yi of the East Factory, and our factory guards joined forces again, so I don't believe that King Ning's every move can escape from the palm of the factory guard." ”

Qin Kan's eyes flashed, and he said with deep meaning: "Now our Jinyiwei and Dongchang are very close?" ”

Ding Shun said with a smile: "That's natural, Dai Yi, the eunuch of the Dongchang palm print, is wearing the same pants as us, how dare the fans below look at Jinyi Wei coldly?" The grievances of the factory guards in the past have long been put aside, and everyone is as close as brothers. ”

Qin Kan was silent for a long time, shook his head and sighed: "The factory guards are too close, it's not a good thing......"

Mu Bin smiled and arched his hand: "What the Hou Ye saw is exactly what the lower officials think, and it is indeed not a good thing that the factory guards are too close." ”

Ding Shun was puzzled: "Master Hou, why is this?" ”

Mu Bin smiled and explained on behalf of Qin Kan: "In the eighteenth year of Yongle, the Yongle Emperor ordered the construction of the East Arrest Factory, with the eunuchs in the palace as the palm print of the East Factory, the original intention of the Yongle Emperor to build the East Factory, the biggest reason was that the Jinyi Wei at that time commanded Ji Gang to rebel, because of this incident, the Yongle Emperor had doubts about the loyalty of the Jinyi Guard, and felt that outsiders were not as loyal as the heavenly slaves, so the East Factory came into being, and the duties of the East Factory were in addition to monitoring hundreds of officials, spying on news, arresting Qin criminals, etc., and there was also one of the biggest responsibilities, which was to supervise and contain the Jinyi Guard...... ”

patted Ding Shun's shoulder, Mu Bin said with a smile: "Wooing, suppressing, weighing, containing, these are all the emperor's left and right balance techniques, the emperor wants to see the factory guards disagree, I like to see the factory guards in a mess, it's best to fight the brains out, Lao Ding, you said that we are now so good that we wear the same pants as the East Factory, which emperor is happy to see it?" ”
