As the saying goes, a soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier. An official who doesn't want to be promoted is not a good official.

So when Hu Ye received the holy decree of promotion, he was still very happy in his heart, and with this continuous heavy rain, he was even more happy in his heart.

"Young master, the speed of your promotion is really fast, it's only been a month, and you have been promoted from a petty official who has not entered the stream to a six-grade general judgment, and you must not envy the group of people who want to be promoted to death." After Lao Qian learned that Hu Ye was promoted, he leaned into Hu Ye's ear and said.

"This promotion may have been influenced by that Heavenly Master, if it weren't for him advocating that this year's drought was caused by man-made disasters, I would not have attracted so much attention from the emperor if I took that Wang Youtian's lair. It seems that this heavy rain is good. Hu Ye was still standing in the heavy rain and said slowly.

This heavy rain has been raining for a day and a night, and I heard that the water of the Yangtze River has risen, and it seems that it is not only raining in Nanjing, but also in the entire Yangtze River basin, and perhaps even in Beiping.

It's been raining hard for a long time now, and the freshness has passed, and if you drench it any longer, you probably get a cold.

After that, Hu Ye went back to the room to change his clothes, wet but it was easy to catch a cold, especially when it rained yesterday, the temperature had plummeted, and it was a bit of a winter.

"Young Master, you are now a big official, shouldn't our nameless mansion be expanded? And there are only four people in the family to serve you, so it's not as good as when you were in Beiping. Saren muttered as he dressed Hu Ye. It's just that this nameless mansion is not worthy of Hu Ye's identity now.

"What do you say, now it's in Nanjing, it's much bigger than my official, how can I make a score. Besides, after the past few months of squandering, there is not much money on his body, and he must use it in a calculated manner. I can't count on the silver of this general sentence at all, and it will not exceed one hundred taels of silver in a year. Hu Ye muttered while enduring Saren touching him from time to time, "That's right." Is there any news from the nameless mansion in Beiping? ”

"Aunt Lan sent someone to bring news. It is said that Sister Su Rina used the 1,000 taels of silver you left behind to make a cloth business. Since more than 30 people in the house have learned embroidery, His Royal Highness King Yan deliberately supported it, coupled with the operation of Sister Su Rina. Now it has become one of the largest trading houses in Beiping City. Saren wiped Hu Ye's wet hair with a dry towel. Said happily.

"But the other day it was a great drought. Business is very bleak, such as today's rain, waiting for the people's life to be better. Sister Surina's business will definitely get better and better. Tsing Yi also recounted on the side.

Hu Ye listened to the words of the two girls, and sighed in his heart, it seems that it was right to leave Su Rina a thousand taels of silver, maybe this mysterious woman will make a lot of money for the Nameless Mansion.

However, Hu Ye knew that Su Rina would return to Mongolia sooner or later, and he could see her identity as a Mongolian nobleman, maybe it was the daughter of a prince.

"Okay, clean up, I'm going to go to the Tixue Academy, this time Wang Wei has helped a lot." Hu Ye said and asked Lao Qian to prepare, if it wasn't for Wang Wei to report to Yan Shenggong this time, Yan Sheng Gong would not have asked Zhang Yuan to help him.

It rained heavily for a day and night, and the roads in Nanjing were not damp at all, probably because they had been dry for too long, and this little rain could not feed the hungry and thirsty earth at all.

In the past, he could just walk directly, but now that it is raining heavily, Hu Ye naturally has to use a carriage to travel, so the speed is much faster, and he will come to Tixue after a while.

There was still the servant at the door, Hu Ye had seen it many times, so there was no need to report it at all, and the servant took Hu Ye into the door.

The aftertaste of osmanthus had dissipated, and it looked as if something was missing.

But fortunately, Wang Wei has the habit of drinking tea, so there is no osmanthus, but there is osmanthus tea, and in the winter solar terms, you can still smell the smell of osmanthus, which is a great joy in life.

"Ha Luha, you kid is not small, you really did this thing." There were only two people left in the room, Wang Wei and Hu Ye, and Wang Wei said with a loud smile.

"Hehe, I have to thank Master Tixue for your help in this matter, otherwise the result is really hard to say." Hu Ye said modestly.

"Now there is no one else, and I don't want adults to be adults, besides, you are now a sixth-grade official, and you are on par with my rank." Wang Wei said while sipping osmanthus tea.

"If this is the case, then I will have the courage to call the king." Hu Ye is not hypocritical, since this Wang Wei and Li Yangming are from the same era, let's call Master Wang, with his knowledge, he can also afford this title.

"Ha Lu Ha, that's it." Wang Wei laughed, then stood up, came to a table, took out a bag of things from a drawer, and then said to Hu Ye, "Let's go, take you to meet my teacher, I guess you haven't seen each other for a long time, if it weren't for his help this time, your kid would be in danger." ”

Hu Ye knew that when he came to see Wang Wei, he would definitely be taken to see the Holy Father, so he didn't shirk it, so he went out with Wang Wei.

"Master, where are you going?" When the servant saw that Wang Wei was going out, he hurriedly brought an umbrella and prepared to prepare the carriage.

"No need, I'll just sit in the same carriage as Hu Ye, and you guys are waiting for me here." Wang Wei took the umbrella and followed Hu Ye into the carriage.

"Boy, do you think what Zhang Tianshi said is true? You made such a big move this time, did you really solve this disaster? Sitting in Hu Ye's carriage, Wang Wei finally asked the doubts in his heart.

Hu Ye glanced at Wang Wei with a smile, and then said in a deep voice, "Master Wang, you are also a person who reads sage books, do you still believe in that kind of words?" It's true that the problem I solved was a man-made disaster, but if it was I who solved the man-made disaster to make it rain, I don't think I had such great ability, if that was the case, wouldn't I be a saint? ”

Wang Wei lifted the curtain, looked at the rain outside, recalled what Hu Ye said, and felt that Hu Ye had some sense. He read the book of sages, which is about ignoring strange forces and disordering the gods, which is a Confucian classic. That Heavenly Master Zhang was born in the Daomen, and now he is in charge of the world's Taoist affairs, which makes him feel a little unhappy.

"Boy, you also read the book of sages, what do you think of Zhang Tianshi?" Wang Wei put down the car curtain, and then asked Hu Ye in a low voice.

Hu Ye was stunned in his heart, and then he understood why Wang Wei wanted to ride in the same carriage with him, not for convenience, but to ask his position clearly.

Hu Ye knew that Taoism and Taoism had some disagreements since ancient times, and in the pre-Qin period, the two families even criticized each other. Although the Ming Dynasty now governs the country with Confucianism, Zhu Yuanzhang still has a soft spot for Taoism, otherwise he would not rely on Zhang Tianshi so much.

This Wang Wei must know some things about himself, thinking that he may have some connection with Taoism, and now he has responded to Zhang Tianshi's man-made disaster, and he has been rewarded by Zhu Yuanzhang, and he may be pulled down by Zhang Tianshi to the Taoist side in the future.

"Master Wang, the first Qin hundred schools, each has its own strengths, the kid has just read a few sage books, where can I talk about opinions. I just think that existence is reasonable, but I don't dare to agree with his set of theories. Hu Ye said modestly.

"Your kid's kung fu in Tai Chi is first-class, I really don't know how your master taught an apprentice like you." Wang Wei saw that there was no wind coming out of Hu Ye's mouth, so he no longer dwelled on this issue, anyway, now Confucianism is all over the world, and Taoism is only Taiyi in Jiangnan, and there is also a Quanzhen Sect that doesn't know where Lu Dao's hometown is, and everything else can basically be ignored.

"But there's one thing I want to warn you about." Wang Wei suddenly became serious.

Hu Ye was also upright, seeing that Wang Wei was so serious, he naturally didn't rush to hang his son, "Master Wang, please have something to say." ”

"Have you heard of the elixir?" Wang Wei said in a low voice, although it was in the carriage and in the rain, it was impossible for others to hear it, but Wang Wei still tried his best to keep his voice down, as if he was afraid that the old money who was driving the car outside would hear it.

Hu Ye's face changed when he heard this, this thing is not a joke, many emperors have fallen on this thing before, and even a generation of emperors, Tang Taizong, has not been able to pass this level. Now that Wang Wei is asking, I'm afraid he has some rumors.

"What? Could it be that the prince heard something? Hu Ye asked in a low voice.

"Now that the emperor is approaching dusk, there must be some thoughts in his heart, this Heavenly Master said that this man-made disaster, and it rained after the sacrifice to the sky. I think the emperor's trust in him is probably getting deeper and deeper, and you also know that the best thing Lu Daotai is at is tinkering with elixir or something, if they propose the elixir at this time...... "Wang Wei didn't dare to say any more, because he didn't dare to talk about the rest of the matter.

Hu Ye knew what Wang Wei was worried about, if Zhu Yuanzhang really listened to some elixir, the only result would be a life.

"Master Wang, the elixir of life is just a legendary thing, when Qin Shi Huang asked Xu Fudong to go to Penglai Immortal Island, he wanted to find the legendary elixir, but what was the result? Not only did his life not be saved, but the huge Qin Dynasty was only short-lived. Hu Ye said.

"We think so, but the emperor doesn't think so." Wang Wei said with some worry.

Speaking of this, Hu Ye stopped talking, to put it bluntly, he is still Zhu Di's undercover agent now, and I wish Zhu Yuanzhang had taken the elixir of life and hung up. But how could he say such a thing, this is in Nanjing, in front of Saren and the others, they don't dare to say such things.

Not long after, the carriage came to the front of a large mansion, and the house in the rain looked even more majestic, far stronger than the nameless mansion in Nanjing. (To be continued......)
