Chapter Twenty-Seven: Clothes are dark and dusty

When Zhang Shengping came back, Huo Roufeng was eating soup dumplings. The inn they live in is Yongfeng, although the shopkeeper doesn't know Huo Roufeng's identity, but judging from her age, this young master is the ninth master of the Huo family, so he has ten times the spirit to deal with it carefully.

Today's soup dumplings are very well done, the soup is rich, the meat filling is delicious, and Huo Roufeng ate three drawers. Zhang Shengping knew at a glance that the ninth master was unhappy.

From childhood to adulthood, as long as the ninth master is unhappy, he will eat hard.

He hurriedly went to get the big hawthorn balls to eliminate food, Huo Roufeng ate four drawers of soup dumplings before stopping, chewed the big hawthorn balls, and said to Zhang Shengping: "I will never eat soup dumplings in the future." ”

Zhang Shengping didn't know why the ninth master was unhappy, but looking at the strength of the ninth master chewing hawthorn balls, he also guessed that the ninth master's anger came and fell quickly.

He then inquired about the news one by one: "The commander of Ningbo Wei is Jiang Shun, he is the fifth son of Xichangbo, married to the niece of the Duke of Min, although the Xichang Bofu has nothing but the title, but Jiang Shun is like a fish in water under the Duke of Min, among the founding nobles who still have military power, only the Duke of Min is outstanding, Jiang Jue was transferred to the commander of Ningbo Wei five years ago, and is one of the favorite generals of the Duke of Min. ”

"The deputy commander Sun Qian, the last martial champion during the first emperor's reign, is the protΓ©gΓ© of Li Qiao, the squire of the military department, and seems to have nothing to do with the Duke of Min, but these things between officials, the common people only see these on the surface."

"Ningbo Wei is an important place under the rule of the Duke of Min, and the five sons of the Duke of Min, the prince Zhanchen and the third son Zhanyue, are all by the side of the Duke of Min; The second son, Zhanyu, is still the eldest princess of Fangyi, and only has the position of a lieutenant; The fourth son, Zhanheng, was killed in battle six years ago while fighting the Japanese invaders; The fifth son Zhanhuai is the old son of Min Guogong who was born at the age of forty, fifteen years old, and has just tied his hair. ”

Zhang Shengping finished talking about the news he inquired about, Huo Roufeng was very satisfied, but everything related to the army was not easy to inquire about, Zhang Shengping found out the details of the commander and deputy commander of Ningbo Wei so quickly, obviously he had worked hard, and he could hand over all this kind of situation to him in the future.

As she grew older, especially after her father's death, her sister had less and less restraint on her, and within 10,000 taels of silver, she could use them at any time in the tent and in the silver and Yongfeng branches, and she was also given a lot of manpower.

There are rich people, and last year, she asked people to inquire about some things. The founding nobles of the previous life and the feudal officials have long withered, and the later generations have hardly heard of their names, and the few remaining nobles are also empty shells.

It is not that the emperors of the Shen family have opened up the net, but that the Zhan family has fought against the Japanese invaders for generations, Fujian, Zhejiang, and Shandong...... The Davids along the coast were all the sons and daughters of the Zhan family, and the pirates and pirates were discolored. When the first emperor had a minister propose a sea ban, the Duke of Min did not agree, and the emperor's holy decree was prepared, but in the end it was not done.

The new emperor ascended the throne and wanted to crown the Duke of Min as the vassal king, but the Duke of Min still did not appreciate it, everyone knew that the imperial treasury was empty, and once the vassal king was sealed, he not only had to raise his own grain and grass, but also paid tribute to the imperial court every year. The Duke of Min not only needs grain and grass, but also needs silver to build ships, and besides, he is in Fujian, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, he can do whatever he wants, and there is no need to be a vassal king.

It is said that the first emperor wanted the eldest son of the Duke of Min to be the lord, but the Duke of Min rushed before the emperor spoke, to the eldest son Zhan Chen, when Zhan Chen was thirteen years old, a few years later, the first emperor had to give the princess to Zhan Yu.

If you are a concubine, you have to stay in the capital, which is also a means for the first emperor to hold the Duke of Min hostage. It's a pity that Zhanyu can only be held hostage in the capital, although they are all sons of the Duke of Fujian, but the eldest son and the second son are different after all.

Huo Roufeng took a pen and wrote the names of Jiang Shun and Sun Qian on the paper.

Jiang Shun is the niece and son-in-law of the Duke of Min, and he can be regarded as the Zhan family's own person, and he has been the commander of the guard, which shows the importance that the Duke of Min attaches to him.

Sun Qian was admitted to the imperial examination, and there was a gap between him and Jiang Shun in terms of background, and the reason why he was transferred to Ningbo Weilai was that eight or nine times out of ten he was a pawn sent by the Ministry of War.

Ningbo is the territory of the Zhan family, and if it were not for Jiang Shun's instructions, Sun Qian, who was alone and lonely, would never have been able to do it.

Therefore, this matter is inseparable from Jiang Shun.

Huo Roufeng's eyes lit up, and the three people on war horses appeared in her mind again.

These three people appeared in Ningbo at this time, and they hid their identities and pretended to be coolies at the dock, and their identities were almost revealed.

The people of Min Guogong!

Jiang Shun didn't expect that the thing he thought was leakless was first shaken out by the Taiping Society, and the whole city was known, and then it was exposed by the people of the Duke of Min under the pretense of coolies.

Huo Roufeng laughed, fun, so fun.

She didn't want to go back to Hangzhou, she wanted to stay in Ningbo and see how the people of Min Guogong cleaned up this mess.

Mother once said that the Duke of Zhenguo and the Duke of Min are two stars that are not born in the world.

Of course, that was the Duke of Min in the previous life, and he was the ancestor of the current Duke of Min.

It can be seen from these things in Ningbo Wei that although the Zhan family can still maintain a glory, it is not as good as the previous life, otherwise Jiang Shun, who relied on the Zhan family to climb to a high position, would not dare to make such a mistake.

Jiang Shun was standing behind him, maybe not only the Zhan family, but also others.

Zhang Shengping's eyes followed Huo Roufeng, watching her write with a pen for a while, and watching her thoughtful for a while, such a ninth master was something he had never seen, and the appearance of the ninth master had a bit of the charm of a big lady.

The eldest lady, Huo Rouyun, is a heroine among women who makes many men ashamed.

Zhang Shengping watched the ninth master grow up, in his eyes, the ninth master is good everywhere, but he is squeamish, and he is served by the maid all day long, and he is dyed with fat powder.

It would be nice if the eldest lady was willing to let the ninth master beat and beat, looking at the current appearance of the ninth master, it seems that he is a person who can stand up to the door.

Huo Roufeng didn't know that for such a while, Zhang Shengping thought about her future and future, and she now wanted to go to the dock again to see what those three people were doing.

At this time, Sun Ling came in and said: "Ninth Master, Zhang Tou'er, Chang Sheng went to the inn to invite the third master, the third master was furious, and I don't know what Chang Sheng said, the third master scolded Chang Sheng's voice, which can be heard downstairs, but at the moment Ningbo is not peaceful, the third master also wants to leave early, and has asked the inn to prepare dry food, and it is bound to leave tomorrow morning, Ninth Master, when will we leave?" ”

Zhang Shengping was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Huo Roufeng: "Ninth Master, let's leave tomorrow morning." ”
