Also going to Hangzhou with Pei Yan was Zhou Zijin.

The relationship between Zhou Zijin and the Zhang family is very good.

His father used to be the same department and colleague as Zhang Ying, and later Zhang Ying offended the emperor because of the abolition of the queen, and it was Zhou Zijin's father who helped him run in many ways, so he was not relegated to Qiongzhou to fish. When Zhang Ying was falsely accused of not being able to prove his innocence, it was Zhou Zijin's father who came forward to help him take the blame, and because of this, he was demoted to the people and never hired. It can be said that Zhang Ying has half of the credit of Zhou Zijin's father today.

Fortunately, Zhou Zijin's father is open-minded, and the Zhou family is several generations of huge wealth, he has no intention of career, not only is not decadent after being demoted, but he feels that from now on, the sea and the sky will be wide and he will let him travel, and he will be at ease, and it has taken him 20 years to travel all over the country, but he is only three years older than Zhang Ying, but he is like a young man's body, and now he is instructing several grandsons to write a biography of the ranger, preparing to write a book and say, and be a famous Confucian in history.

This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Zijin and Pei Yan have a very close relationship.

They belong to the same faction in the first place.

If Pei Yan had anything, he wouldn't deliberately hide it from Zhou Zijin.

Especially Zhou Zijin's three sects and nine streams are all friends, and he is also a friend of Wang Qibao, he wants to follow him on the trip to Hangzhou, Pei Yan will definitely not refuse.

Zhou Zijin read the content of the note, and couldn't help sighing, "What is he going to do?" Lord Shen trembles and dilutes every day, just to be safe and secure. I think he is a persimmon picking up soft pinch, don't overturn in the gutter at that time. ”

Pei Yan raised his eyebrows.

At the beginning, Lord Shen was able to ascend the throne because Li Xun and Jiang Hua fought too hard, which angered the emperor, and the emperor simply let Lord Shen, who had the deepest qualifications but the weakest ability, be the first assistant.

It's a kind of checks and balances.

Zhou Zijin said: "Who can be the first assistant without two brushes?" Even if you boil everyone else to a higher position, it's a skill! If you don't say anything else, you must be open-minded, otherwise how can you stand those idleness? You know, being able to be angry and not being angry is not something that everyone can do. ”

Pei Yan agreed.

He thought for a moment and said, "What should we do about this matter?" ”

Pei Yan is not without ideas, but this matter involves the Zhang family, they don't know what Zhang Ying's attitude is, how can he help the Zhang family make decisions?

Zhou Zijin sighed: "Why do you have to report to Lord Shen." Speaking of which, Lord Shen is a pretty good person. In the past, when I was in Hanlin Temple, I was also protected by his old man. As for Gaoyou's matter, it was originally to cover up the case of the three princes, if Sun Gao poked this matter out at this time, how would he plan to end it? Isn't he afraid of angering the emperor? Or, what else does he do? ”

Pei Yan was also puzzled, but he had an idea that was quite unexpected. He smiled: "Or, we invited Gu Chaoyang over?" It's better to let their own people solve the affairs of their division. ”

Gu Chaoyang was also unlucky, and he just got a teacher like Sun Gao. He has always wanted to keep his distance from Sun Gao, but unfortunately he has not succeeded.

Maybe this time Gu Chaoyang can really take advantage of Gao You's case to get out.

Zhou Zijin knew what Pei Yan was hinting at, he grinned, winked at Pei Yan, and said with some fear that the world would not be chaotic: "I think this is a good idea!" We can also take this opportunity to throw the pot on Gu Chaoyang. Let others think that Sun Gao is fighting in their own nest. Speaking of this, he thought of Pei Yan's "fairy"-like operation, and said busily, "You tell me the truth, how did you think that Peng Yu would stare at the position of the senior brother." I thought about it, but I couldn't figure it out. To say that Peng Yu is staring at other people's positions, I believe it. But senior brother, he is the grandson of the Zhang family, Zhang Shibo is still in the spirit of Longma, so he is not afraid of the Zhang family's counterattack? What's more, a few days ago, Peng Yu also visited Zhang Shibo, wanting to marry a girl from the Zhang family for his eldest son......"

If it weren't for Yu Tang's "dream", Pei Yan felt that he couldn't even dream of it.

But how can he explain this kind of thing to Zhou Zijin.

He is not afraid of being criticized, but he doesn't want Yu Tang to be looked at differently.

Pei Yan said vaguely: "I just think the Peng family's behavior is a bit strange, and it is better to prevent trouble." It can be regarded as a mistake, and Sun Gao's actions were discovered. ”

Zhou Zijin didn't think much about it.

Sometimes, some people's intuition is stronger than any speculation or foresight.

Pei Yan is also a scheming person, and his intuition is definitely stronger than everyone else.

Zhou Zijin is a "crazy person", he has to do something when he has nothing to do, it is rare for Pei Yan to calculate people, he suddenly became excited, and volunteered to pat his chest and said: "I'll write a letter to Gu Chaoyang and get him to Hangzhou." ”

With Zhou Zijin's help, things are more secure.

Pei Yan nodded and talked about Wang Qibao: "I think he came here for the second prince." Money is a trivial matter, mainly to see what the major families in Jiangnan mean. I think we should be neutral, as my teacher said. It doesn't matter who he is the emperor, as long as it does not harm our interests. Then he smiled pointedly at Zhou Zijin, "It's a good thing that Sun Gao jumped out at this time. Didn't Gu Chaoyang say that he had some evidence in his hands? Whether it's true or not, I think we should blame Sun Gao for this. He's been bunching a lot in the past few years. ”

Zhou Zijin smiled and said, "You and I want to go together." When you go to see Wang Qibao later, I won't follow, you take the opportunity to talk to him to see what he wants to do, and we directly promise to help him do it. lest they drive him to Canton. Isn't Tao Qing in Lin'an? I write a letter to Gu Chaoyang, you write a letter to Tao Qing, I am in charge of Sun Gao, you are in charge of Wang Qibao, hurry up and end this matter. Zhang Shibo's 65th birthday this year, my father is going to enter Beijing with me, and I still have to wait for the old man to enter Beijing! Don't get us all caught up in this. ”

Zhang Ying's birthday is in December.

Pei Yan and Zhou Ziyuan discussed some details again, and went back to the house to get busy.

Who knew that waking up one night would change the sky.

Eight hundred miles from Jiangxi sent a letter urgently, saying that when Zhang Shao went to Jiujiang to inspect spring ploughing, he unfortunately fell into the water and drowned.

Pei Yan sat on the head of the bed in his cloak and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

How so?

Zhang Shao is Zhang Ying's eldest son and the heir of the Zhang family.

People will definitely die.

But Pei Yan never thought that Zhang Shao would die like this.

"Lord Zhang really drowned?" Pei Yan's eyes widened, and he carefully read the letter from beginning to end, and asked Pei Qi, who came in with the letter.

Pei Qi knew that the stakes were high, his expression tightened, and said, "I asked carefully, it was really an accident." Originally, I didn't plan to take the Jiujiang road, but Master Zhang temporarily decided to go over. At the same time, there was also Master Zhang's master who fell into the water. The prefect of Jiujiang was frightened, and discussed with the staff all night, but he didn't know how to explain to Mr. Zhang, so I wrote a letter to you and Mr. Jiang first......"

Pei Yan is a closed disciple, like the youngest son, the most favored. Jiang Hua is Zhang Ying's best disciple in his current career, like the eldest son. The prefect of Jiujiang has no choice, of course, he hopes that these two people can come forward to help him bear the burden.

Pei Yan read the letter again, and the "buzz" in his head exploded.

What Miss Yu said about the governor of Jiangxi before is now all possible.

If it was usual, Peng Yu would definitely not dare to dig into the corner of the Zhang family. But now, Zhang Shao died suddenly, and the position of the governor of Jiangxi was vacant, and everyone must have attacked him in groups, trying every means to get this position.

If there is no warning from Miss Yu, the teacher will lose his son in old age, and those of them who are senior brothers or junior brothers must be busy comforting the living, busy giving Zhang Shao's funeral, and busy arranging Zhang Shao's posthumous affairs, where do they have the energy to care about who took over the governor of Jiangxi.

And in the eyes of the Zhang family, or in his eyes, the governor of Jiangxi is important, but it is not so important that he has to arrange his own people.

The official career is treacherous, the iron-clad officials of the yamen and the flowing water, who does what position, also has luck in it.

But according to what Miss Yu said, because Peng Yu became the governor of Jiangxi, the Li family and the Lin family's in-laws both bought a grange in Jiangxi and followed the Pei family to start a grain business.

This is equivalent to the Pei family opening the mountain, and they followed to collect grain.

If the relationship between the two families is good, it will be fine, in the case that the Li family has always wanted to replace the Pei family, the Pei family also took their family to make a fortune, Pei Yan thought that he did not have such a good temper and mind.

He suddenly understood why Yu Tang was staring at the Li family and didn't let go.

Pei Yan walked back and forth in the inner room with his shoes on.

We cannot allow this to continue.

It is no wonder that in Yu Tang's dream, Li Duan was able to revive the family business, and the Peng family became the largest family in Fujian.

As the governor of Jiangxi, Peng Yu is qualified to compete for the six ministers, and it is possible to worship the prime minister and enter the cabinet.

There are only so many resources in Jiangnan, and if the Peng family occupies more, they will occupy less.

There is also the City Division.

The Peng family may affect which city department will be abolished in the end.

If they had kept the city in Quanzhou, everything they were doing now would have been in vain.

Pei Yan asked the little servant to serve him and get dressed, and handed the letter in his hand to Pei Qi: "Show it to Zhou Zhuangyuan." Let him come to me for breakfast. ”

Pei Qi ran away with a smoke.

Pei Yan looked up and saw Wen Zhulan and Diyong Golden Lotus outlined with gold dust on the blue-green beams of the room.

He walked under the beam.

Could it really be the Bodhisattva's blessing?!

Their family invited a senior monk to Zhaoming Temple to give a lecture, and then Miss Yu had that dream.

Is the Bodhisattva hinting at his future through Miss Yu's mouth?

In other words, the second prince is the true son.

He carefully recalled what Yu Tang had told him.

Pei Yan suddenly felt flustered and short of breath.

According to Miss Yu, Peng Shiyi wants to kill her!

The thought flashed through him, and his chest felt like a big stone pressed against it.

"Ah Qi, Ah Qi!" Pei Yan shouted Pei Qi's name loudly.

Zhao Zhen walked in quickly and said, "Ah Qi went to Zhou Zhuangyuan." Do you have any instructions that I can do? ”
