(Four, one, five) is what you want more

Ji Xiang nodded in response, hid the bag of millet in his arms and went in first. Zhang Qingting was about to go back after a while, but when he saw the Yan brothers appear, he quietly beckoned to her there. Zhang Qingting was slightly stunned, the two of them have always been silent, what are they looking for?

Yan Xinan never liked to beat around the bush when he spoke, and said straight to the point, "Mrs. Zhang, there is something, we want to ask you to help find out, what kind of seasoning did Master Fang get?" ”

To be honest, Zhang Qingting was also very curious about this issue, and she also calculated that she would personally follow Fang Dehai to investigate this matter.

"You two asked, what do you know?"

Yan Xibei nodded, "Mrs. Zhang, please take a seat, this matter is very important, please be sure to help with this." Because among the seasonings used by Master Fang, there may be something very unusual."

Zhang Qingting's face changed suddenly, "Is it poisonous?" ”

Yan Xibei's face was solemn, "It's something more terrible than poison, and my eldest brother once suffered from it."

Although the New Year has not yet ended, the annual leave of the DPRK has long been over. It's just that the ministers won't be so careless to report some troublesome things before the Lantern Festival to block the emperor, basically the daily court meeting, that is, after simply saying those two relaxed and pleasant government affairs, it will be over.

Today, Meng Zhan got off the court, did not go home immediately, nor did he go to the yamen, but sat in a sedan chair, guarding a must pass in the next dynasty and waiting for people.

In a short time, the people he was waiting for came.

The family member who "stopped the sedan chair" was stunned, and went back to report, "Master, it was Lord Xiao Meng of the British Mansion who blocked him and said that he had a few words to tell you." ”

Really? Yan Bozhai's eyes narrowed slightly, his fingers tapped twice on the back of the chair in the sedan chair, and he lifted the shelf, "Then go and ask him what's the matter." ”

The family soon came over to spread the word, "Lord Xiao Meng said that it was about the Spring Festival, and he wanted to ask the master for a lesson or two." ”

Oh? If you say anything else, it's just this matter, Yan Bozhai has to listen to it

For many years, every chief examiner of the imperial court has been from the master's mansion, but as soon as Yan Huaijin passed away a few years ago, many ministers of the court jumped out, and the meaning of those words was to let the emperor choose another virtuous and good and give up this position. But how could Yan Bozhai do what they wanted?

The old man is dead, and now he has just become the head of the Yan Mansion, if he can't even keep this position, then the emperor will even add the post of teacher to him. Being an official in the court is like sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. Yan Bozhai understands this truth very well, so he must seek to seize this position

And Meng Shangde is the first obstacle to hinder him, and now Meng Zhan has taken the initiative to talk to him about this topic, does it mean that the Meng family has any compromise countermeasures?

Seeing is a must-see. Yan Bozhai got out of the sedan chair but ordered, "Then go and invite Lord Xiao Meng to come over and talk about it."

The official level crushes people to death, this is what he should handle, why not?

Meng Zhan calmly came to Yan Bozhai's sedan chair alone, and as a lower-ranking official, he also greeted him first according to etiquette. Yan Bozhai was very satisfied, and then he was vain, "Master Meng, why do you need to be so polite?" ”

With a wave of his hand, the subordinate next to him also withdrew from Zhangyuan, leaving space for the two of them.

Meng Zhan smiled slightly, "People don't know etiquette, and they can't stand up." What's more, it is against the strict etiquette of Master Yan's mansion, even if the teacher has passed away, but the lower officials dare not be thoughtful in this courtesy."

Yan Bozhai heard the faint sarcasm in his words, and his eyes lit up, "Did Lord Xiao Meng stop this official today, just to make a salute?" ”

"Of course not" The smile on Meng Zhan's face remained unchanged, "Spring is coming now, but the person who is the main examiner has not been decided, not only is it not beneficial to the country, but it is also worrying about them day and night."

Finally got to the point, Yan Bozhai's heart tightened, but his face was still quiet, "This matter has its own holy judgment, you and I don't have to bother in vain, guess the holy will"

Meng Zhan chuckled, "Why does Lord Yan pretend to be confused? In fact, if everyone takes half a step back, they may be able to go hand in hand and serve the country, and this matter is not without precedent in the previous dynasty. Lord Yan, do you say? ”

Yan Bozhai understood, he meant to get a double main exam, and even sneered when the main exam came out, "It's a pity that everything is always a matter of priority, if Master Meng really thinks like this, why do you have to do this?" ”

He didn't have small words in this Meng Daren, he was referring to Meng Shangde.

Meng Zhan smiled, "This is not a little foolish opinion of the lower officials, it is just for reference to adults." If you think it's wrong, don't be surprised."

He arched his hand, as if he was leaving, but suddenly mentioned something, "Speaking of a thing, I was really curious, I went to the Hanlin Academy the day before yesterday to check the old history, and I accidentally saw that Lord Yan was so discerning, and his achievements in the case of King Yan really made people have to surrender with pleasure, but I don't know how the adults found out about the details of King Yan at that time?" ”

Yan Bozhai's face suddenly gloomy when he heard this, "This is naturally the grace of heaven, and everyone is contributing." No matter how wise he thinks, there will always be a secret and a sparse place, so what's so curious about this? ”

Meng Zhan nodded, this answer was already in his expectation. But he sighed again, "I just don't know what kind of indiscriminate method King Yan used to control people's minds, but that thing was all destroyed before King Yan was punished, it's a pity, but Lord Yan, you said that since he wants to destroy those, why not destroy everything together, but only that?" Are those things more convincing than black and white? ”

"Master Xiao Meng, you may not have thought too much" Yan Bozhai snorted coldly, "If he can expect everything, then he is not a human being, he is a living immortal, besides, this case has already been concluded by His Majesty, why are you so interested?" Do you have any objections? Hmph, I would like to advise Lord Xiao Meng, this royal matter, let's be ministers, it's better to worry less."

Meng Zhan smiled, "Thank you Lord Yan for your kind words, the lower officials must remember it." Only this is the minister, don't worry about it, but this loyalty is the first, if there are some things, do it well or not, just don't deceive the king and hide it. Lord Yan, do you think that's the case? Hehe, it's not too early, and the next official won't be delayed. Farewell, farewell"

He said no more and walked away. Leaving Yan Bozhai there, although he tried his best to remain calm on the surface, his heart had already set off turbulent waves

Damn, this guy actually went to check the old accounts before, of course Yan Bozhai knew that when he was in the secret office of King Yan back then, the ghost sent the gods to intercept the batch of royal rice shells and Nanmeng ointment. Because he has used it, of course he knows the beauty of this thing, but he originally thought that he had done it seamlessly, and no one would be tempted to check it at all, but now Meng Zhan is going to check it, is this? Of course, this kind of thing can be big or small, but if Meng Zhan continues to investigate and find out about that matter, I'm afraid it will ......

Yan Bozhai's eyebrows tightened, strode towards the sedan chair, and ordered left and right, "Go home"

Entering the secret room of the warehouse again, Yan Bozhai looked at the bottles and cans with the mark of Yanwangfu, smacked, smashed and smashed a few antique porcelain, mixed in a pile, "Qiu Sheng, you come in and clean up"

Qiu Sheng received the order, packed up his things and came out, but did not throw them away, but took a cloth bag and quietly packed up these broken porcelain tiles and handed them to his henchmen, "Go to the antique shop to find a few skilled craftsmen and see if you can put them together"

He made a lot of effort, and in Pei Jing and Yan Huaijin's room, he didn't find anything, so naturally he wouldn't let go of any opportunity in his hand.

When Yan Bozhai was restless, he got worse news.

The person in charge of monitoring Yan Bo went back and forth, "I saw an old nun and brought him some things, and then the little one followed the nun back, but it was to Jinyu Nunnery." The little one inquired by the way, and it turned out that in the nunnery, the young lady who lived in Ning Mansion sent him something, and it was Miss Ning's nurse."

Pa Yan Bozhai slapped the table heavily. Is there a fire in his heart, even if he guards filial piety, do you want to make trouble with him? When did the young lady of Naning Mansion catch up with him again? What good can this lonely man and widow do? This younger brother is always a big problem

At this time, Qiu Sheng came back and forth, "Ming'er went to pick up the goods with the old man surnamed Fang, what else does the master have to order?" ”

Yan Bozhai was about to say "no", but suddenly stopped and gave birth to another head. Meng Zhan is still determined to track down the past, and Fang Dehai lives in Qiao Zhongda's place, and Qiao Zhongda has a lot to do with Meng Fu. In case the old man couldn't hold his breath and said it, or if Qiao Zhongda found out that he had secretly refined the rice husk for himself, it would always be a hidden danger

and Yan Bo, who is also inextricably linked with Fang Dehai, Qiao Zhongda and others. Although the things of the year were boiling and disgraceful, but now that Miss Ning should be not young, if she can't hold back her loneliness and do something wrong with Yan Bo, then can the Marquis of Yongchang still deny it? There was already a Pei Mansion standing behind Yan Bo, if there was another Yongchang Hou Mansion......

The more Yan Bozhai thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he hated how hard it was to have today's status, but what about Yan Bo? With little effort, there are so many things that are readily available. Even after he was imprisoned, as soon as he came out, there were still so many people waiting here to help him, why are things in this world so unfair?

Yan Bozhai's murderous machine once surged out again, and this time, he wanted to cut the grass and eradicate the roots
