Shen Xinming followed Chen Guogong into the capital.

It's just that it was naturally not good for him to follow behind the Chen Guogong Soldiers and Horses Brigade who entered the palace to pay the order, but waited for the crowd of onlookers to disperse, and then slowly walked towards Chongxian Fang with his own convoy.

Gu and Yang happily prepared a dust-washing luncheon. Shen Xincheng and Shen Dian were even more busy going in and out with smiles on their faces.

Shen Xinyan's brother was on official business and couldn't pick him up. Shen Hao followed Luo, Mi, and Kui Yuyu to come over to pick up the wind for him.

Seeing this formation, Shen Xinming was simply flattered, and said with a smile at the banquet: "It's the first time in my life that I have been received so ceremoniously." ”

Through the screen, Gu Shi still couldn't hold back, and was coquettish at the female guest's table: "Why did you go out to be busy with business before, and when you come back, we don't have your food?" ”

The crowd laughed.

Shen Hao was happy when he saw this lively appearance, so he also took the opportunity to say loudly: "Uncle Ming, you will definitely go over to see Grandpa Tai in the next day." Shall we eat together at night? Shall I cook for you? ”

Luo took the toothbrush in his hand and knocked her hand and scolded her: "Boasting about Haikou again." Hu Lai. ”

The Gu and Yang clans all smiled and leaned back.

Only Mi's, with a sallow face, looked at the harmony between husband and wife, father and son, and looked more and more sorrowful.

Shen Xinming smiled at the table over there and agreed: "Yes, yes!" ”

The banquet dispersed, and Roche Mi left a gift and said goodbye and went back.

Shen Hao fell behind, glanced at Kui Cangyu with a smile, and instructed: "Don't delay people for too long." "I also went away.

Kui Yucai didn't care about the thirty-seven twenty-one here, it was easy to wait for the female guests to disperse, and he was so busy that he pulled Shen Xinming to mutter for half an hour before he went satisfied.

After returning to the room, Gu was full of tenderness and scolded him: "I have never been gone for such a long time, and I don't write a few more letters to my family." ”

Shen Xinming sighed: "How can you do it without heart? Sister Mao is full of wisdom, and Mr. Kui has no last resort. If it is because I have dragged them back, I will not be able to win this business that stirred up the storm, what face do I have to claim to be the descendant of Shen Bancheng? ”

Gu Shi was stunned: "What business?" ”

Shen Xinming smiled slightly: "Brocade cloth procurement." ”

Gu Shi was shocked: "It's the one who first made a case of giving clothes, came out with a bidding management method, and now is making trouble with the Zuo Zang case, that cloth procurement?!" ”

"Exactly."

……

……

in the Royal Palace.

Chen Guobu still had a sword, and his face was full of humiliation: "Your Majesty, the old minister is incompetent, and he still hasn't caught those 'mountain bandits' who harmed my son and Lord Wan Qi!" ”

Lu Chun glanced at Chen Guogong.

This old man is true and sincere. A Tianmu Mountain is about to be leveled by you, and you still say that you didn't catch anyone. So who do you have to catch to be finished?

Emperor Jianming felt that such a conversation was really pleasant, and said solemnly: "The old man doesn't have to be formal, what is going on, you can tell me in detail." ”

Lu Chun hurriedly moved a seat for the old man first.

Chen Guogong thanked Emperor Jianming, and then sat down and spoke in detail.

It turns out that this Tianmu Mountain is also divided into east and west Tianmu, stretching for hundreds of miles, and there are residual vein branches. Even if the local government soldiers are lit, it is difficult to take care of the head and tail after all.

What's more, among the soldiers of this house, there are deserters every few days.

Originally, the deserter Yun'er was not a big deal. However, in the process of suppressing bandits, Chen Guogong could not help but think a lot, thinking that the local garrison was secretly colluding with the mountain bandits.

"The old minister led the troops, and what he hated the most was this kind of thief who ate inside and outside, and the means were used more ruthlessly. Who knew that the general who led the army carried Su Guogong out, saying that when he took them with the old man, he had never been so strict.

"The old minister thought about it, the government soldiers in Jiangsu and Zhejiang were in turmoil back then, and later served as Jingwei, and they were really all under the hands of Grandpa Bao. In this case, the old minister simply no longer had the luxury of hoping to catch the harmful bandit in one fell swoop. After pulling the net again, he will come back.

"Now, the old minister begged His Majesty to hand over this matter to the old man of Su Guogong. His old man is out of the horse, these soldiers don't have to shirk, right? ”

The old man said, a resentment that could not be suppressed stared at his face.

Emperor Jianming's face also sank, but he didn't agree to this sentence, but raised his head and asked Lu Chun: "Where have they gone?" ”

Lu Chun counted carefully and said, "It should have passed Changsha." ”

Emperor Jianming snorted: "They ran fast!" Write the will, and send it over 800 miles urgently. Let them kill the horse gun and go directly to Wan Qisheng. Give me the clamor to take down the scrutiny. In the areas of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, I held my will and allowed them to act cheaply. ”

After a pause, he said: "This matter is handled by Le Anbo, and the Yiwang assists." ”

This is because he is afraid that his son will be impulsive and mess around.

Lu Chun understood in his heart, and immediately bowed down to agree, turned around and walked straight to the door of the province.

Emperor Jianming asked gently, "How is Xinmei?" Are the injuries better? Can I come back with you? ”

Chen Guogong snorted and sighed, "It's carried back." ”

After a pause, the old eyes were cloudy and covered with red silk: "It's wasted." A large tendon on his left arm was severed. The medical officer said that in the future, even heavier things in that arm would not be mentioned again. ”

Emperor Jianming was silent for a moment, and there was a burst of anger on his face: "But the bandit is small, how can he destroy my general?" There must be a traitor! ”

He forcibly suppressed his hatred and appeased Chen Guogong: "Xinfang is loyal and filial, although he is in pain, he also replied to me and asked for severe punishment of the thief, but he has never behaved out of the ordinary. The old man taught a good pair of sons. You go back and rest first. I'll definitely find out about it! ”

Chen Guogong said no more and resigned.

Emperor Jianming sat on the throne, and his heart was extremely upset.

Where did all the money go to Zuozang?

Why do mountain bandits in Tianmu Mountain dare to assassinate Shen Xinmei and Wan Qisheng?

The Criminal Department actually sent Shen Xinzhi to Taiyuan Shangdang to track down the bandits, what did they want to do?

"Come, Xuan Shen Xinyan."

Emperor Jianming wanted to chat with Shen Xinyan.

"Back to Your Majesty, Shen Xinyan was called to the East Palace by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to ask about Zuo Zang's case."

Emperor Jianming was stunned: "Zuo Zang doesn't ask the third division, what are you looking for him?!" ”

Suddenly understood, and couldn't help but be angry: "This evil obstacle! Even if he can't help, can he not add to the chaos? Don't be so stupid! I'm saving face for him, doesn't he know?! ”

Lu Chun was not in front of him, and no one dared to answer the emperor's sudden anger.

There was silence in the Zichen Palace.

Emperor Jianming stood up: "Swing the East Palace!" I want to see what flowers this obstacle can propose! ”

……

……

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was high up, with a reserved and indifferent expression.

"Zhu Weng has been in the household department for nearly 20 years, from the master book to the servant, and the world's wealth and goods have passed through his hands, and there is no omission.

"How did it change to you? Moreover, just half a month after you took over the household department, there was a boiling Zuozang case?

"You're just in the Ministry of Etiquette, with a bunch of nerds who have read rotten books, and you're tossing around the rules and regulations of etiquette. How can you dare to take over this account of wealth management in the world? Is it up to you to deserve this plan? ”
