Yan Hong smiled: "Why is my uncle like this? My little nephew was indeed a little frightened when I went down to Shandong this time, but relying on the grace of today's saint and the blessing of my grandfather, the most sturdy hair did not lose half of it, but it was valued by the heavenly family and gave a lot of rewards. You and I are all family, what is the point of talking so many detours? What do you want me to do, it is better to say that it is clear, and if it is within my power, I will never refuse. ”

When Zhao Wenhua heard this, he nodded hurriedly and said, "What Huhou said is true." Then, he accompanied him and said carefully: "The marquis doesn't know, I was dismissed this time and is waiting to be investigated, and those imperial historians are chasing and beating hard, I really can't resist it." Alas, outsiders say that being an official is easy, who knows how hard it is to be an official? The upper and lower levels must be dotted, and colleagues must also be maintained, which of these items should not be used with silver? What can I do by hoping for that little money alone? Besides, don't like to listen to it, the old man of the small pavilion has a big appetite, and I haven't even lost half of the money on the books. Most of them went into the pockets of the old Xiaoge, and now let me carry them, how can I carry them? The matter of ordnance construction, Xiao Ge always said that everything has him, I didn't expect ......"

Some of his words are inconvenient to say too clearly, this corruption and deficit matter, which one is missing Yan Shifan's matter. During the construction of the project, Yan Shifan often brought in some people who did not know the so-called, saying that they were his old fellow villagers, old friends, and the engineering materials provided were cheap and could save a lot of money. It's just that the material of the material, naturally, I can't say. Who would dare to take the test? As for the construction of ordnance, Yan Shifan even worked from the top and bottom to fill his own pockets, and even the gunpowder of the Gunpowder Bureau he also got some flower heads and overreported the consumption.

When Yan Hong heard this, it turned out that this guy wanted to shirk his responsibility. He sneered: "That's according to my uncle's words." This is a false report of war exploits. Presumably my father instigated it? ”

Zhao Wenhua's face turned pale, and he hurriedly said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding!" Zhao was so bold that he didn't dare to bite the old man of Xiaoge. That's because I'm crazy, I don't know what to do, and I always want to make a big contribution. In addition, Zhang Jing has never sold Yuanfu's face, so I want to remove a scourge for the Yan family, who knows how to do it...... Until now. I can't regret it either. Huhou is as kind to me as a mountain, and the previous case of Xu Hai in Jiangnan was all due to Huhou to help me, which not only recruited Xu Hai, an elite soldier for the country, but also saved Zhao from a catastrophe. Now that the Holy Grace is in full swing, I heard that the Son of Heaven personally gave the word Pure Minister, and the future is limitless. I also hope that I will be pulled by the past feelings, and I will not ask for a reinstatement officer, but only for the bones to return to my hometown. And at the beginning, Zhao had the courage to discuss with Hu Zongxian about the opening of the sea ban, and recruited Wang Zhi's strategy. It is said that the marquis is also strongly in favor. In the future, Hu Hou will make this great contribution to the benefit of the country and the people, and Zhao is also willing to do his best in his life. Do your best. ”

The return of beggar bones to the hometown was a euphemism for returning home to care for the elderly at that time, that is, begging the bones to return to the field. Zhao Wenhua's meaning is that my official can not do it, but I just hope that I can write off the past crimes so as not to be held accountable.

Yan Hong was slightly stunned when he heard Zhao Wenhua say this, and said in his heart, this guy is indeed an open-sea faction, and he is a native of Cixi, Zhejiang. But after thinking about it, recruiting An Wang Zhi and opening the sea to trade, Lao Tzu had many sages to discuss this matter. You, Zhao, have fallen like this, what can you do? Besides, if you are used, most of them will be affected by you. Well, it's better to make a smile on you to the Pomeranians. Besides, I have already received my father's order, my grandfather's approval, and I promised Zhang Meiren that if you don't take your old man's life, you can't pay the account. Thinking of this, Yan Hong sneered and remained silent.

Zhao Wenhua also knew that it was not easy to agree to this request, and seeing that Yan Hong didn't speak, he hurriedly stretched out his hand from his sleeve, took out a stack of things, handed it over, and said: "Huhou, this time Zhao was dismissed, and there was no income, so he could only sit and eat empty, but fortunately, he still had some savings in the past." Here is 12,000 taels of silver, and the deed of the other two Jingshi mansions is also expected to be accepted by the Hou of the household. ”

Yan Hong didn't take anything, but sneered: "Uncle, what are you doing?" Do you and I still use these? If the little nephew can serve you, he has nothing to say, but you also know that I am Jinyiwei, not the Fengxian official. You, I think you're looking for the wrong person, you should find my uncle for this matter, it's useless to look for me. ”

Zhao Wenhua said in his heart: If I can find Ouyang Bijin, why bother to find you? That old man tinkered with some strange things all day long, but he didn't have a career in the world, this right capital imperial history was made by him like a scattered immortal, what's the use of looking for him? But now it is not his turn to get angry, but he can't help but mourn: "Huhou, for the sake of Wenhua's saddle in the Yanfu saddle, he has served for many years, there is no merit, and there is hard work, I hope that Huhou will be merciful." ”

Yan Hong took a bite of the dish, first praised a few words of the master's craftsmanship, and then said with a smile: "Uncle, this time, I was in Jinan, and I dealt with that Liu Cai and Governor Liu, and he wrote down some interesting things there, saying that he took them out, and even my father Xiaoge didn't dare to touch his hair." Uncle, you have been an official for many years, and you are even more close to Liu Cai. I wonder if Lu Dao also has this elegance? ”

When Zhao Wenhua heard this, his face turned pale, his legs trembled, and he fell to the ground and said, "Wronged!" Wronged! Zhao's loyalty to his father-in-law and his old man can be seen every day, how could he follow Liu Yingshi's example and do that unrighteous act. Even if Zhao died, he didn't dare to implicate his father-in-law's family, and he also hoped that Hou Ming would investigate. ”

Yan Hong hurriedly put him back in his seat, full of joy: "That's right, it's good that you don't remember." You see, Liu Cai is smart, and he remembers it very thoroughly, but what is the result? The clan is annihilated. What kind of treatment my grandfather treats in front of the Son of Heaven, what kind of means my father has, I think Uncle Zhao, you know better than me. Don't worry, Yan Fu has always been measured against his own people. Since you are so loyal, how can my Yan family look at you and ignore you? Put these things away quickly, your business, easy to do, the little nephew will find a way, and you will definitely return your bones to your hometown. ”

Zhao Wenhua himself said that the bones returned to his hometown, which was a humble resignation, but when Yan Hong said it, it was awkward to listen to it. However, he also knew that Yan Hong had never learned or had no skills, and he didn't bother to bother with him. Hearing that Yan Hong agreed to his request, Zhao Wenhua couldn't stop thanking him, and he didn't dare to recover the silver box office deed. He said: "Huhou doesn't have to be polite, this little gift is not respectful, and I hope that Huhou will not be too little." ”

Yan Hong waved his hand to stop him, and shouted outside, "Qingyan, you can also come in to meet Uncle Zhao." Hearing only a burst of footsteps, Zhang Qingyan moved the lotus step lightly and walked into the private room. At this time, she removed the curtain on her head, revealing her pretty face, which was really dazzling. When Zhao Wenhua first saw this woman recently, he was stunned and didn't know where she came from. But for a moment, I couldn't help but secretly admire Yan Hong's Yanfu. I thought to myself: This is most likely Yan Hong's concubine from Shandong, no wonder Yan Hong even spilled his life and went to Jinan, for such a person, it's worth it. It's just that this woman is wearing plain clothes, she doesn't know the rules too much.

The Qingyan entered the room, and did not salute Zhao Wenhua, but with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he retreated to sit down behind Yan Hong. Yan Hong smiled and asked Zhao Wenhua, "Does my uncle recognize her?" ”

Zhao Wenhua hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Today, I saw Ling Pet for the first time, and he was really a fairy-like figure. It's a pity that Zhao came out in a hurry today, and this meeting gift was not prepared, which is really rude. ”

Yan Hong shook his head and said, "Uncle, you misunderstood. This girl is not my concubine, but behind the door, a great heroine. Although she and your uncle are meeting for the first time, her uncle and you are old acquaintances. ”

Zhao Wenhua was confused when he heard this, and asked, "But I don't know who this girl's uncle is?" ”

Yan Honglang said: "Her uncle is the secretary of the Nanjing Military Department, the governor of Zhejiang, Zhang Jing and Zhang Lao Sima. As soon as Yan Hong's words came out, Zhao Wenhua's face changed again. This girl is actually Zhang Jing's niece, what is she doing here? He had the heart to get up and leave, but he didn't know what Yan Hong had called this woman for, so he froze there for a while.

Yan Hong was not in a hurry, took out a medicine gourd, and said to Zhao Wenhua: "Uncle, the medicine in this is called the Heart Piercing Pill, and it is still a gift from Uncle Luo that day." After eating, it is difficult to even investigate the grievances. This medicine is very rare, and I used this to serve my uncle on the road, and it is right for you. ”

"You!" Although Zhao Wenhua was servile in front of Yan Fu, when he heard that this gentleman was going to kill himself, he was immediately furious, and he got up with the case, waiting for a seizure. Yan Hong sank his face and said, "Uncle, you'd better sit down and talk, and listen to the little nephew finish speaking, and then think about whether to eat or not." ”

Zhao Wenhua was already a dog with a broken backbone at this time, and the anger that had just been puffed up by Yan Hong's voice was vented for seven points, and he sat down slowly. Yan Hong sneered: "Uncle Zhao, let's wake up, do you still think you can not die now?" I don't need to list all the things you have done. If you don't take this medicine, how can you escape from the royal law of the court? Greedy for money, lying about war exploits, framing heroes, these sins can't control you? And the attitude of my Yan family, you must have understood a thing or two by now. Besides, who will you carry the pot this time? If you really want to drag it out, everyone is not interested. When that time comes, not only will you die, but your family will also be inevitably implicated, and your family will not be able to afford to pay back the stolen money alone. According to me, uncle, you should cut it off by yourself and clean it up. In this way, my Yan Mansion will also have less trouble. If you give this little nephew this little face, I will say good things for you in front of Long Live and avoid this restitution and ensure that your children and grandchildren are safe and sound. ”

When Zhao Wenhua heard this, his face trembled like ashes, his fingers were dotted, his lips trembled, and he didn't say anything. After a while, he cowardly said, "I'm ...... I want to see my father-in-law, and I want my brother to speak. If it is what they mean, Zhao has no other words, you ...... I can't believe your words. I have made meritorious contributions to the Yan family, I have contributed to my father-in-law, I want to see my father-in-law! (To be continued......)
