Chapter 186: Meritorious
After hearing what Nie Changfeng said, Xue Wuyi also fell into contemplation, what he could be sure of was that this Zhang Jilin was Zhang Jilin from Qingshi County, Liu Meiniang's husband, and Xue Wuyi had a bold guess that Zhang Jilin was Lu Shaoli.
"Zhang Jilin has made meritorious contributions to quelling the rebellion against King Chun this time, and he has been named the General Department of Soldiers and Horses." Nie Changfeng said as he walked out with Xue Wuyi.
"Yes!" Xue Wuyi was not interested.
"This time, you can't bear it anymore." Nie Changfeng asked.
"Forbearance? When have I ever put up with it? Xue Wuyi asked disdainfully.
"Cut." Nie Changfeng glanced at Xue Wuyi contemptuously.
Don't think he doesn't know, Xue Wuyi looks like a hanger, but in fact, he still has some feelings for his father.
Xue Wuyi is like a contradiction, although he hates his mother-in-law, he will take into account his father's thoughts, because Liang Min and Xue Zhongjing do have feelings.
Xue Wuyi more or less took care of Xue Zhongjing. So after fighting wits and courage with his mother-in-law for so many years, if he can avoid frontal conflicts, he tries to avoid frontal conflicts, so he is out all the year round and doesn't return to the capital much.
It's just that Xue Wuyi loves to have a hard mouth, he doesn't care about it, he doesn't care, but he actually cares a lot in his heart.
"This time, they did it first, so don't blame me." After a long time, Xue Wuyi said lightly.
Nie Changfeng sent Xue Wuyi back to Xue's mansion, and Uncle Liu greeted him from afar.
"Young master, how did you become like this?" Uncle Liu was in tears.
"It's okay, I've been hit with two boards." Xue Wuyi said that the clouds were light and light.
Xue Wuyi went to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Uncle Liu originally thought that nothing would happen, but Xue Wuyi did not come back for a long time, and Uncle Liu went to the Prime Minister's Mansion to inquire about the news, but was driven out by the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Uncle Liu realized that Xue Wuyi might have had an accident, but Xue Wuyi really didn't have many friends in the capital, especially the kind of friends who helped in times of crisis.
Uncle Liu went to Nie Changfeng's house, but the people in Nie's mansion said that General Nie and several people had entered the palace. Uncle Liu was in a hurry, but there was no way.
Seeing Xue Wuyi come back, Uncle Liu's heart finally let go.
Nie Changfeng helped Xue Wuyi into the flower hall, and Uncle Liu hurriedly ran out to find a doctor, but was stopped by Xue Wuyi.
"It's okay, Uncle Liu, you go and bring the medicine box, put on some medicine, and lie down for a few days."
Xue Wuyi waved his hand.
"Uncle Liu, go ahead, this little injury, just lie down." Seeing that Uncle Liu was still not at ease, Nie Changfeng also said that Uncle Liu nodded and went out.
Xue Wuyi returned to the room and asked Nie Changfeng to help him with the medicine.
"This is the first time I've seen you so embarrassed." Nie Changfeng said gloating with the medicine in his hand.
"Stop talking nonsense." Xue Wuyi glanced at Nie Changfeng.
Xue Wuyi is thinking about one thing now, who killed Wang Ma?
"Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for more than a year, right?"
After taking the medicine, Nie Changfeng washed his hands, sat down at the table and picked up a cup of tea.
Xue Wuyi crawled on the bed in his underwear.
"You're not the same as me, a hooligan, you're a young talent." Xue Wuyi said coldly.
"Tut-tut, it's a miracle that your mouth has survived until now without being killed." Nie Changfeng sat at the table and glanced at Xue Wuyi.
The two chatted with each other.
"What's the fun of you going to Qingshi County?" Nie Changfeng asked gossipingly.
"Nope." Xue Wuyi shook his head decisively, he didn't want to tell others about Liu Meiniang.
"Uninteresting." Nie Changfeng glanced at Xue Wuyi.
"Let's go, General Nie is waiting for you at home." Xue Wuyi began to give an eviction order.
"I have no conscience, I'll drive me away when I'm done with it." Nie Changfeng made a heart-hugging gesture.
"Let's go." Xue Wuyi's face was cold. Nie Changfeng flicked his sleeves and left.
After Zhang Jilin was named the General Department of Soldiers and Horses, Emperor Changping directly gave Zhang Jilin the mansion of a prince of the opposite sex before, and before that, Emperor Changping had asked people to renovate all the mansions.
And all the slaves are equipped with Zhang Jirin, and Zhang Jirin just lives in it.
Even the sign on the house was hand-held by Emperor Changping himself.
As a rising star, Zhang Jirin quickly became popular in the capital. And become the object of everyone's discussion after dinner.
Zhang Jilin became famous for a while, some admired Zhang Jirin, and some sour Zhang Jirin, but Zhang Jilin didn't hear it, if he was in the capital now, Zhang Jilin would take over all the people of the Zhang family.
The day after moving into the new mansion, Zhang Jilin wrote a letter to Liu Meiniang.
But it will take more than half a month for the letter to be delivered to Liu Meiniang.
Zhang Jilin was a little worried, Liu Meiniang's business had just started, and she had laid a good foundation in Qingshi County, if she went to the capital now, would Liu Meiniang be unwilling.
On this day, Zhang Jilin just went down to the court, and was left by Emperor Changping, recently Emperor Changping is very keen to play chess, Zhang Jilin doesn't know, why his chess skills are very ordinary, Emperor Changping still has to find him to play.
While waiting in the back garden, a group of people came over with a woman with flowers and branches.
Looking at the woman's appearance, it should be a relative of the emperor, Zhang Jilin does not squint, and now she is outside the door of the Diligent Palace.
"Hey, who's that guy?" The woman in the purple shirt saw Zhang Jirin from a distance, her heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and she asked the maid next to her after making up her mind.
"Back to the third princess, that person seems to be His Majesty's newly appointed General Director of Soldiers and Horses, and it is said that his name is Zhang Jirin." The palace maids are also very well-informed, and Zhang Jirin's matter has already spread among them.
And this woman in purple clothes is the third daughter of Emperor Changping.
Emperor Changping's children said that there were not many or less, and there were a total of six daughters and seven sons.
The little one is still in swaddling clothes, among the princesses, the eldest princess has been married, the second princess has made a marriage contract, and the third princess has also reached the marriageable age.
In the eyes of the third princess, as a princess, she dared to refuse her, and the third princess felt that her face had been insulted.
She had seen Xue Wuyi a few times before, in her conscience, Xue Wuyi was also good-looking, and she also had an innate nobility, the third princess was originally quite satisfied with this marriage, but Xue Wuyi refused this marriage, and the third princess was of course angry.
Today, she passed by the Qinzheng Palace, but she didn't expect to see Zhang Jilin, compared to Xue Wuyi's appearance of a noble son, obviously, Zhang Jirin's tough and cold appearance is more loved by the third princess.
"Let's go over and see." A thought suddenly rose in the third princess's heart.
Emperor Changping is strict with his son, but he is still very spoiled by his daughter, just these princesses, Emperor Changping is impartial, and the third princess can be regarded as growing up in Emperor Changping's arms since she was a child, so as long as you don't do anything excessive, Emperor Changping will choose to tolerate.
The third princess walked in front of Zhang Jilin with a group of people.
Zhang Jirin glanced at the third princess, although he didn't know how many the three princesses did, from the dress, Zhang Jirin also judged that the woman in purple clothes in front of him was a princess.
So Zhang Jirin knelt down on one knee and saluted respectfully.
"See the princess." Zhang Jilin said in a deep voice.
"Get up." The third princess waved her hand casually.
"Princess Xie." Zhang Jirin got up.
"Who are you. Why haven't I seen you in the palace before? The third princess asked knowingly.
"Princess Hui, subordinate Zhang Jirin, is currently the General Director of Soldiers and Horses." Zhang Jirin's tone was normal, and he couldn't hear any emotional ups and downs.
"Oh~" The third princess nodded clearly.
"Cui'er, let's go find my father." The third princess smiled mischievously and was about to leave with her maid.
"Mr. Zhang, Your Majesty has announced that you will go in." Gonggong Li came out and said with a smile.
"Yo, the third princess is here too?" When Gonggong Li saw the third princess, the smile on his face was even more exaggerated.
"Gonggong Li, what is my father doing? Is it convenient for me to get in? I happened to wander around here to say hello to my father. The third princess looked well-behaved.
"Your Majesty, this will be fine. The third princess, Mr. Zhang, come with the mourning family. After Li Gonggong finished speaking, he led the way in front.
Zhang Jilin was expressionless and followed behind Gonggong Li. The third princess was two steps ahead of Zhang Jirin, and I don't know why I heard Gonggong Li say that Mr. Zhang, the third princess, and the third princess felt that she and Zhang Jirin seemed to be very close.
"Your Majesty, General Secretary Zhang is here." Gonggong Li pushed open the door of the Qinzheng Hall and said.
"Father, Yan'er is here to say goodbye, long live my father, long live, long live." The third princess walked to Emperor Changping's side.
"Yo, why did you remember to say hello to me today?" Emperor Changping looked at Xiao Yuyan and quipped.
"Father, what do you mean when you think about it today, doesn't Yan'er remember her father every day, it's just that her father is busy with government affairs, and Yan'er doesn't dare to disturb it." Xiao Yuyan sat next to Emperor Changping and held Emperor Changping's arm coquettishly.
"Hehe, I'm kidding, I know that Yan'er is sensible. Ji Rin sit down, this is my third daughter. After Emperor Changping finished talking to Xiao Yuyan, he pointed to the position next to him and asked Zhang Jilin to sit down.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After Zhang Jilin thanked him, he sat on the chair.
"Father, what are you doing here?" Xiao Yuyan asked puzzled.
"Playing chess, what, are you interested?" Emperor Changping looked at Xiao Yuyan with a smile, he liked Xiao Yuyan, and another reason was that his daughter's personality was very similar to Concubine Rong's in some places.
Therefore, Emperor Changping was very tolerant of Xiao Yuyan.
"I'll see." Xiao Yuyan touched her nose embarrassedly, although she knew a little about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she really didn't have much proficiency, on the contrary, she didn't like these things very much, Emperor Changping was also open-minded, and he didn't force his children to learn this.
"Okay, you see." Emperor Changping asked Gonggong Li to bring a stool to Xiao Yuyan and started playing chess with Zhang Jilin.
At the beginning, Zhang Jilin always lost. But after losing a few times, Zhang Jilin began to sum up lessons and study the routines of Emperor Changping's chess.
This is also Zhang Jirin's most powerful point, he is really not good at many things, but he likes to find out the weaknesses of these things. Then use your strengths to break them one by one.
It's the same when playing chess with Emperor Changping, Emperor Changping won very easily at first, and slowly became a little difficult.
The third princess was bored crawling on the side, watching the two of you come and play chess, most of her thoughts are on Zhang Jirin.
