Xu Cheng, who was stared at by everyone, stood up suddenly, and walked back and forth in the living room, his face full of hesitation and struggle.

can get to today's status, obviously Xu Cheng is not a fool, but also a figure with considerable means and ability, otherwise he would not have become a servant of a department.

Even if the Ministry of Rites is not too important among the six departments, it is also one of the six departments, and being able to become an important official in one of the six yamen can almost be said to be at the peak of many officials in the Ming Dynasty.

Such a figure is only thirty or forty, which shows the bright future of the future.

However, at this time, Xu Cheng was making the most important decision in his life, and Xu Cheng knew very well that once he chose to stand up against Chu Yi in the court, then a major turning point in his life would come.

Either he soars into the sky and becomes the henchman of today's Tianzi, or he falls into the abyss, and he may even lose his life.

Xu Cheng, who was walking back and forth, felt that the decision was so difficult to choose, but it was no wonder that Xu Cheng did not make a choice on the spot, so he was already thoughtful and calm.

Several other officials are looking at Xu Cheng at this time, as the highest official position and the most influential figure among them, Xu Cheng can be said to be the core figure of their small group, if they can say that Xu Cheng can be moved, then when the time comes to make it difficult for Chu Yi, they feel that the possibility of success will be higher.

Seeing Xu Cheng walking around with a hesitant and embarrassed look, Zhao Xiong stepped forward and stared at Xu Cheng and said, "Brother Xu, you must not forget how the Venerable Master was killed by Chu Yi's evil thief!" ”

As soon as Zhao Xiong said this, Xu Cheng, who was originally extremely hesitant, took a deep breath, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the group and nodded slowly: "Okay, I agreed!" ”

Seeing that Xu Cheng finally agreed, several people laughed one by one, looked at Xu Cheng with a little excitement and said, "Brother Xu will definitely not regret today's decision." ”

"If Brother Xu wins His Majesty's favor in the future, don't forget that we are waiting!"

Xu Cheng looked at the crowd with a straight expression: "Everyone, Chu Yi must not be underestimated, if we want to attack him, we must kill him with one blow, otherwise, with his influence, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not attract a group of supporters above the court, and at that time, we will not only be unable to eradicate the traitor, but may also catch up with ourselves." ”

Zhao Xiong and the others looked at Xu Cheng with expressions and said: "Brother Xu is reasonable, I don't know what Brother Xu has in his opinion, I will listen to Brother Xu's arrangement!" ”

Someone here was planning to attack Chu Yi in the court, but Chu Yi was accompanying Chu Ying and Chu Ning in the mansion with a leisurely appearance.

Regarding the arrangements of Yue Fei and others, Chu Yi has already done what he should do, and the rest of Chu Yi believes that with his tacit understanding with Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao will also arrange everything in the future.

Chu Ning looked at Chu Yi who was sitting there talking to Chu Ying, her eyes were full of kindness, she was just a woman, if she had been in the past, even if she had never dreamed that their Chu family would be so rich.

After a few months of adaptation, Chu Ning's family finally adapted to the current identity and life a little, because of Chu Ning's noble status, except for the queen mother and queen in the palace, there are really few female relatives who dare to disturb Chu Ning's family.

In this way, Chu Ning's family had nothing to do, so he had a little more thought and consideration.

With a light cough, Chu Ning looked at Chu Yi and said, "Yi'er! ”

Hearing this, Chu Yi raised his head and nodded towards Chu Ning's clan and said, "Mother? Do you have anything to tell the child? ”

Chu Ning hesitated slightly, and said to Chu Yi: "My son has been created, and now he has such a big family business, even if his mother dies here, it is enough to look at Jiuquan." ”

Chu Yi hurriedly said: "Mother, where are these words, you want to live a long life and live a long time." ”

Chu Ning's face was full of smiles and said: "It doesn't matter how long my mother can live, anyway, this life is earned, but there is a little bit that I can't let go of my mother!" ”

Chu Yi said: "If my mother can't let go of anything, just say it." ”

Chu Ying, who was sitting on the side at this time, handed a cup of tea to Chu Yi and said crisply: "Brother drink tea!" ”

Chu Ning looked at Chu Yi and said, "It is said that starting a family, now that my son has such a family business, shouldn't I think about my life's events?" ”

Chu Yi, who had just taken a sip of the tea handed over by Chu Ying and had not had time to swallow it, squirted out the tea in his mouth on the spot.

With a cough, Chu Yi was obviously confused by Chu Ning's words, obviously he didn't expect Chu Ning's to have such an idea.

"Starting a family? This ......"

Chu Yi subconsciously shook his head, to be honest, he really hadn't thought about this, not to mention his own problems, the key is that there are not a few stunning beauties he has come into contact with, but none of them make him tempted.

Chu Ying, who was on the side, opened her eyes wide at this moment, and suddenly clapped her little hands and shouted, "Is my brother going to marry Ying'er's sister-in-law?" Great......"

Chu Yi raised his hand and patted Chu Ying's head and said, "Little girl, don't be noisy!" ”

Chu Ying stuck out her tongue at Chu Yi, her watery eyes gurgled, she giggled, turned around and ran out.

Chu Ying, who ran out of the living room, looked arrogant, pinched her waist and said to several maids: "Prepare for me quickly, I want to enter the palace to see Chang Ning!" ”

Chang Ning is no one else, but he is one of the few little princesses under Zhu Houzhao's knees, but he has the best relationship with Chu Ying, and in less than a few months, the two have become playmates.

As for Chu Ying's identity, it couldn't be easier to enter the palace, and even with a token specially given by Zhu Houzhao, you can enter the palace at any time.

Chu Ying, who jumped into a carriage, muttered softly: "Well, my mother is going to find my brother's sister-in-law, and this secret must be shared with Chang Ning......"

Chu Yi, who didn't know that his sister was going to share the secret with his playmate, was explaining to Chu Ning with a big head at this moment that he was not in a hurry about getting married.

Chu Ningshi looked at Chu Yi's shirk look, and suddenly his face showed a little depressed and said: "I am the only man in the Chu family, you are the only man, do you want to learn from those people, you only know how to practice, and you don't want to get married at all, how can you see the ancestors of the Chu family after the death of your mother......

Chu Yi is called a big head, in the face of the Chu Ning clan, Chu Yi would rather fight with a strong man at the level of the Heavenly Monarch, even then he will not have such a big head.

After wasting the power of the Nine Bulls and Two Tigers, Chu Yi felt that it was more difficult than fighting with the Heavenly Monarch, and finally appeased the Chu Ning clan, and thought that the Chu Ning clan promised that he would definitely pay attention to whether there was a suitable partner in the future.

With Chu Yi's promise, Chu Ning's face showed a little smile, looked at Chu Yi and said: "Don't blame your mother for forcing you, it's really our Chu family that is your only seedling, if you cut off the Chu family's incense, your mother will really be a sinner of the Chu family." ”

Coughing lightly, Chu Yi hurriedly said, "The child wrote it down." ”

Beckoning the maid to serve Chu Ning's clan to rest, Chu Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Rubbing his head that was a little painful, he really didn't know how to deal with Chu Ning's clan, but he couldn't explain it to Chu Ning's clan, but fortunately he could still drag it for the time being, at least in this world, there were many strong people who didn't approach women in order to pursue a stronger realm.

In Chu Yi's opinion, it may be because he has disappeared for several months as soon as he retreats this time, and the reason why Chu Ning specifically mentioned this matter to him is that he is afraid that he will be like those strong people, who only have cultivation in their eyes and nothing else.

In the palace, the little princess Changning was wearing civilian clothes in the imperial garden clapping her little hands and applauding Zhu Houzhao.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was like an ordinary father playing with several little princesses and little princes, and several concubines watched this scene not far away, with smiles on their faces.

Over the years, although Zhu Houzhao has not added a few concubines to the harem, there are more or less concubines, and the body has been conditioned by Shao Yuanjie, and it is extremely healthy, so that the royal heirs are naturally flourishing.

Just when Zhu Houzhao was playing with several little princesses and little princes, a head poked in from the gate of the imperial garden, who was it not Chu Ying.

Chu Ying poked her little head, opened her mouth and shouted in a low voice at Princess Changning, of course, this was just Chu Ying thought that she would not be discovered, in fact, when he entered the palace, Zhu Houzhao had already received the news.

Of course, Zhu Houzhao has long been accustomed to Chu Ying's entry into the palace, and it can be said that Chu Ying will always come to the palace for one or two days to play.

Zhu Houzhao was happy to agree on this, so when Chu Ying probed his brain with a mysterious appearance, Zhu Houzhao didn't break the other party, and even heard Chu Ying's shout, secretly glanced at him and quietly ran towards Chu Ying, Chang Ning, Zhu Houzhao didn't stop him.

The little princess Changning's ruddy little face looked at Chu Ying with joy and said, "Aunt Yong'an, you're here!" ”

Chu Ying looked like a little adult and winked at the little princess Chang Ning, and shrunk her head, her big eyes looked around and whispered, "Chang Ning, come on, I have a little secret to tell you!" ”

Chu Ying, who pulled the little princess Changning to squat in the corner of the wall behind a blooming osmanthus flower, put on a posture of coming to ask me, and sure enough, after listening to her words, the little princess of Changning was really curious, and said to Chu Ying with curiosity: "Aunt Yong'an, what a secret, tell Chang Ning quickly!" ”

The wind and grass in the imperial garden naturally can't escape Zhu Houzhao's ears and eyes, after all, with Zhu Houzhao's current cultivation, not to mention anything else, the slightest movement in the entire palace, but if Zhu Houzhao is willing, he can investigate it clearly.

And Chu Ying and Chang Ning's mysterious little movements hiding under the osmanthus tree were naturally taken care of by Zhu Hou and heard clearly.

To be honest, Zhu Houzhao really has no interest in listening to a little girl's so-called secrets, after all, in Zhu Houzhao's opinion, Chu Ying and Chang Ning are not very old, they are just children, and the so-called secrets of children's families are more funny things in the eyes of adults.

Here, Chu Ying leaned over to Chang Ning's side, looked around, and seemed to be sure that no one noticed them, so she whispered: "Chang Ning, Chang Ning, let me tell you, I may have a sister-in-law......

"Poof!"

Zhu Houzhao, who had just received the tea from Wang Zheng's hand, squirted out a mouthful of tea, not to mention how strange the look on his face was, and his eyes were staring at the osmanthus tree not far away.

Even Wang Zheng was also taken aback, Wang Zheng's cultivation was not bad, and the whispers of Chu Ying and the little princess Changning over there could be heard clearly even if he didn't want to hear it.

Not to mention that the Son of Heaven couldn't help but squirt out a mouthful of tea when he heard it, but Wang Zheng couldn't help but shake his hand slightly when he heard it, and almost threw out the tea tray in his hand.

"Your Highness is getting married? That sounds a little sudden! ”

Wang Zheng subconsciously looked at his master, he had served Zhu Houzhao for so many years, how could he not know the friendship between Zhu Houzhao and the Metropolitan Governor, and now the Metropolitan Governor may be married, and he does not know how His Majesty will react.

After only one glance, Wang Zheng hurriedly lowered his head.

The look on Zhu Houzhao's face was extremely strange, obviously suppressed by the news, but soon Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses, took a deep breath and suppressed the waves in his heart, and looked at the little girl under the osmanthus tree who didn't know the waves caused by his words.

And at this time, Chu Ying, who told the secret she heard to her playmate, looked at Chang Ning and said, "Chang Ning, this is our secret, don't tell anyone else." ”

Chang Ning nodded heavily, and said to Chu Ying seriously: "Aunt Yong'an, don't worry, Chang Ning will definitely not tell others!" ”

The queen and several concubines, who were watching Zhu Houzhao from a distance and playing with several little princesses and little princes, noticed Zhu Houzhao's movements, led by the queen, several people walked over to Zhu Houzhao, and saluted Zhu Houzhao and said, "Your Majesty, you are ......"

Zhu Houzhao waved his hand slightly, glanced at the queen and the others, and said, "I want to be quiet, you guys should retreat!" ”

Several people subconsciously glanced at Wang Zheng, but at this time, Wang Zheng lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything at all.

The queen left in a daze, and she was very puzzled why Zhu Houzhao suddenly became a little weird.

When there was no one else in the imperial garden except for the few little princesses and little princes who were still playing in the distance, Zhu Hou glanced at Wang Zheng and said, "Wang Zheng, you also heard the words of the county lord of Yong'an!" ”

Wang Zheng hurriedly said: "Old slave...... Old slave ......"

Zhu Houzhao glanced at Wang Zheng lightly and said, "If you hear it, you hear it, will I still do anything to you?" ”

Wang Zheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty Shengming! ”

Glancing at Wang Zheng, Zhu Houzhao put his hands behind his back, and said with a somewhat wandering gaze: "Are what you said the Yong'an County Lord said true or false?" ”

Wang Zheng bowed, cold sweat broke out on his back, and his mind turned and trembled: "Old slave...... The old slave doesn't know! ”

Zhu Houzhao seemed to be muttering to himself: "It is said that Tong Yan is unscrupulous, and Yong'an will not come to talk to Chang Ning about these ...... for no reason."

While speaking, Zhu Houzhao suddenly flashed a gleam in his eyes and said to Wang Zheng: "Wang Zheng, you immediately bring the information of those people brought by your companion this time, I want to check it carefully!" ”
