Chapter 8: The Beginning of the Storm (2)

Imperial nobles like King Chengwu, most of the mansions are built outside the Zhengyang Gate, and although there are many officials outside the Chongwen Gate, there are few opportunities to see celebrities like King Chengwu. However, because King Chengwu was born Zhou Zheng and made great achievements, although he was not in Beijing all the year round, his popularity in Beijing has always been high. Since the day he entered Beijing, the girls in the entire Ling'an City have gone crazy together.

"Ah, King Chengwu just glanced at me."

"Nonsense, it's clear that it's me."

"You don't look in the mirror to see what kind of virtue you have."

"You can also weigh two pounds, and you don't know it yet."

"Zhang Cuihua, do you want to fight?"

"I'm afraid of you, Wang Erya!"

The girls rolled up their sleeves and fought. King Chengwu said: This king just glanced at the crowd casually......

When Zhong Bo helped Song Ran get into the carriage, he said, "King Chengwu seems to be running very diligently to the household recently. ”

Song Ran sat down in the car and guessed lightly: "I went to the household department to reimburse the military salary." ”

Uncle Zhong nodded and said, "The young master is wise." This official is most afraid of encountering the household department, as the saying goes: the household scribe is fiercer than the tiger. If you can't have a clear mind, you meet the Buddha and burn incense, and you want to have a fee reported to the Holy One, at least one and a half years, and at most three years and five years. King Chengwu's military expenditure over the years is not a small amount. ”

Song Ran sat down in the car, his right hand casually twitched his skirt, and there was a faint smile in his eyes: "Uncle Zhong, do you remember that Xu Sanlang from Yaozhou is the youngest son of Mr. Fushang's bookkeeper." Two years ago, he said that he was going to join the army, but he was caught by his father halfway and almost broke his leg, but he escaped again after two days. ”

Zhong Bo said with a smile: "Naturally, I remember that it was the young master who found a way to raise the road expenses for him. That Xu Jiasaburo was born weak and polite, but he didn't expect to be bent on going to the battlefield in military uniforms, so sad that his father lamented day by day and didn't want to recognize this son. ”

"If it is Peng, it should fly to the sky, and if it is Kun, it should enter the sea. A smart person like him shouldn't be trapped in a small Yaozhou. Song Ran's expression softened, and he suddenly remembered, "I remember that he once sent a letter back, saying that he had joined the Northern Hebei Army." ”

Uncle Zhong nodded: "This kid has a lot of eyes, he used a pseudonym when he joined the army, and even the letter to report his safety was forwarded by others." However, the old slave was asked by his father to inquire in many ways, and finally found out about him a year ago. When he was in the Northern Hebei Army, he was not reused because of his small body and weak physique, and later the Northern Hebei Army was absorbed by the Tiger Division of King Chengwu, and he gradually emerged and became a minister under the prince's account. ”

Song Ran was very pleased: "In this way, we can still use his name to have a relationship with King Chengwu Panpan?" ”

Zhong Bo was not very optimistic: "There are more than one or twenty of the ministers of King Chengwu, I don't know how many catties and taels his name occupies in the heart of the prince." ”

Song Ran pondered for a moment, and suddenly asked, "I don't know how much King Chengwu has been in a year?" ”

Zhong Bo thought for a while: "The prince's annual salary is about 20,000 taels, plus all kinds of ice charcoal silver, chariot and horse silver, pen, ink, paper, inkstone silver, it should be more than 30,000 taels a year." ”

Her eyes were bright: "For the sake of wealth in the future, I also have to climb this relationship with him." However, it's not good to go empty-handed, let's give Xu Saburo a meeting gift first. ”

Zhong Bo asked, "What is the young master going to do?" ”

She bent her eyes: "First find me a book of household officials, and when I make plans, let's pick a good day and go to meet King Chengwu." ”

Zhong Bo didn't ask her what her specific plans were, so he responded loudly and raised his horsewhip high.

The carriage soon pulled into the wide avenue, and all the way unimpeded.
