Chapter 178: Visiting the Lamp Market and Encountering a Stinky Hooligan

Although Wei Qian said that in the Battle of Dongchang, Fang Shizheng was also the main general at that time, but he was not sure that Emperor Yongle would pursue the matter.

Emperor Yongle is now in his sixties, and he has been in power for more than 20 years, and most of his early anger has been worn out.

Coupled with his understanding and trust in the other party's official government, the threat of the other party's official government at this time, perhaps, is really not worth mentioning.

Even so, he didn't have to sit down anymore, got up and said with a smile: "Wei has already understood the will of adults, and I am also entrusted by others and loyal to people." You can rest assured, Wei will not mention the matter of Dongchang to the emperor. If I want to mention it, I mentioned it twenty years ago. ”

is an outdated and useless handle, it is better to let Fang Shizheng lead him to a favor.

Sure enough, Fang Shizheng bowed gratefully and said: "Fang Mou wrote down the kindness of Lord Wei, except for the battle for imperial power, it is useful to have a certain place above, as long as Fang Mou can do it, he will go to the soup." ”

With a kind word, he returned to the Wei Mansion. Wei Qian felt that it was not as he thought, and cast the net out, but found nothing.

Yi Chengjin listened to what his father-in-law said, and said in silence for a moment: "The mansion that Zhu Zhanpei got is a ready-made palace, and after the Lantern Festival, he should move out of the palace." We might as well wait until he has officially bowed the seal before we can plant a flag for him. ”

"Exactly."

Three days later, it's the Lantern Festival.

A family banquet was set up in the palace, and the princes and grandsons gathered together, and they were happy on the surface.

The capital is lit up with lights, and it is a pleasant night without curfew. Tonight, the New Year's Festival is over.

"Senior brother, who do you think I am?"

Hua Qiao took a fierce mask in her hand, covered her face, and asked with a smile.

"Female Zhong Kui." Hu Yanjin smiled and flicked it on the forehead of her mask.

Hua Qiao was wearing a mask, her eyes were dripping in the holes of the mask, and she suddenly pointed to the river and shouted, "Oh, senior brother, what is that?" With that, he put on his mask and ran away.

Hu Yanjin hurriedly threw down a few copper plates and chased after him.

The mask seller shouted from behind, "Childe wait! You can take a few more! ”

Hu Yanjin soon had a Zhong Kui mask on her belt, of course, it was Hua Qiao, because she was already busy carrying a water lantern.

The two of them came to the river with the lotus lantern, and the buckwheat slowly put the lotus lantern into the water, watching it flow along the water, and together with the other lotus lanterns in the river, it merged into a galaxy.

Hua Qiao stood up, but she didn't expect her feet to slip, and she fell into the river, Hu Yanjin grabbed her arm, pulled her hard, and pulled her into his arms.

"I wanted to be Zhong Kui before, and I wanted to be a river god just now, can you be yourself now?" Hu Yanjin laughed softly, this person will always make him dizzy in front of him.

Hua Qiao quickly pecked him in the face, broke away with a smile and ran: "This is me." ”

The Lantern Festival is the only day in Daming that allows young men and women to hold hands and go shopping, so the road is full of partners holding hands, and men who are talking around and trying to hold hands.

In this day when they were legally accosted and didn't have to be afraid of being slapped by the girl, Hua Qiao and the others heard a loud slap:

"Stinky rascal!"

I saw that the man who was beaten also launched a flutter: "Yo! You are really shameless, a person like you, how much do I want uncle, isn't it just a money word? What's wrong with touching you? Come on, pull me back, let me touch it slowly! ”

Although there were many people next to him, he didn't understand the situation at once, and he didn't dare to stop him rashly.

How can the sound be so familiar? Hua Qiao was about to squeeze over, but a man next to her stood up and guarded the girl: "I thought that at the feet of the Son of Heaven, there would be fewer villains, but I didn't expect that before the New Year's Day, someone made up his mind to spend it in the government prison." ”

Isn't this Xu Zhijin's voice? Hua Qiao and the two had already squeezed into the crowd and were waiting to pass, but Hu Yanjin pulled her with a smile.

Hua Qiao looked at it, and it turned out that the girl who scolded the stinky hooligan was none other than Fang Wanyan, the eldest girl of the Hubu Shangshu family.

"Miss Fang, are you okay? Don't be afraid, in public, he doesn't dare to do anything. Xu Zhijin and Fang Wanyan once had a relationship, but they didn't expect to meet again, but it was such a scene.

"Phew! I'm afraid you won't tell me! Do you want me to send you to the Shuntian Mansion to beat the drums? The man smiled greasyly.

Xu Zhijin took a step forward and said: "Looking at your clothes, your family is only rich and not expensive, did you donate a sesame petty official, or found a backer?" You dare to harass the women of good families in the lamp market, and you are not afraid to sue the officials, but you are afraid that this backer of yours is in the Shuntian Mansion. I'm ...... Is it justified? ”

The man sneered, "So what? ”

"It's easy to do," Xu Zhijin glanced at the people around him who were eating melon seeds, and unexpectedly saw the smiling buckwheat opposite, he smiled and nodded:

"According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, those who harbor criminals are guilty of the same crime as criminals. There are so many witnesses tonight, I wonder if this backer of yours dares to stand out for you? If he dares, I don't mind stopping the sedan chair on the street to sue the royal court! ”

The people who ate melon seeds shouted well, this is much better than the big drama, and I haven't seen the plot.

It's a pity that this applaudation, the man didn't want to continue acting, but finally said strongly: "There is a kind of you waiting here!" I'll be back! Before he could finish speaking, he disappeared into the crowd.

The people who ate melon seeds dispersed, and Hua Qiao and Hu Yanjin walked over.

"Buckwheat!" Fang Wanyan also saw the buckwheat that was walking towards them, and she said coquettishly: "I just came out to see if I could meet you, but I didn't expect to meet that stinky rascal first." ”

"If you don't meet a stinky hooligan, how can you meet the righteous and courageous Third Brother Xu?" Hua Qiao saw two good friends at once, and she was so happy that she was about to fly.

"That's right, Third Brother Xu, I still want to ask you, how do you know if his family is only rich or not? I think he's wearing silk, not a merchant's house. Fang Wanyan was skeptical just now.

"Because of his shoes." Xu Zhijin said with a smile: "It's true that you can't see the official products in civilian clothes, but the shoes are different." I learned this from buckwheat. ”

Hu Yanjin laughed: "If you don't praise her like this, you won't be able to find the north if you praise her again." ”

"What am I looking for Bei for? Find you. After Hua Qiao whispered, she picked up Fang Wanyan and ran away.

Within the high palace walls, it is also rare to sing and dance.

The county lord of Yanping took his mother Zhang Cairen's hand and squeezed to Zhu Zhanji's side.

"Brother Taisun! My mother has something she needs your help with. ”

Yanping was only fourteen years old, and although he didn't usually come into contact with each other, Zhu Zhanji was still very friendly to these younger brothers and sisters, he looked back with a smile, and Zhang Cairen hurriedly greeted him.

"Zhang Cairen has something to say, Zhan Ji will see if he can help."
