What should be said to Huang Zhan, Zhu Hao had already asked Su Xigui to convey it.

Now it's just to communicate the matter again in person, and I didn't say that it would be decided, after all, Zhu Hao is not the emperor, or even an official who can take charge of things, it depends on whether you Huang Zan believes it or not.

If you believe it, then do it obediently, if you don't...... I won't be sitting here anymore.

Then Huang Zan complimented Zhu Hao's talent, and thanked Zhu Hao for providing the salt drying method to give him the opportunity to be promoted to the head of the household department, and did not talk about his going to the capital to be a scholar. Huang Zan understood that it was basically impossible for Yang Tinghe to enter Beijing for a day.

It's also troublesome to go, it's better to stay in Nanjing, at least Yang Tinghe wants to deal with her, it takes a while for the message to be transmitted, and he can still use some connections to strategize.

The two chatted for about half an hour, Huang Zan got up to say goodbye, and then the two went out of the merchant hall separately.

Su Xigui walked out with Zhu Hao, still looking respectful.

"Huang Gong didn't talk to the contemptible people in detail, and after the contemptible people communicated with Huang Gong, he would talk to the little master in detail." Su Xigui's beautiful appearance, his two major backers in life, Huang Zan and Zhu Hao, he relied on his brother-in-law Huang Zan to support him in the first half of his life, and he mainly relied on Zhu Hao in the future.

Of course, there are some things that can't be said too clearly.

But now that Su Xigui is leaning towards Zhu Hao's side, he has to find out the true thoughts in Huang Zhan's heart and inform Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao nodded: "In the past few days when I have been in Nanjing, the owner of the Su may not see me much recently, so he can directly send someone to inform me if there is something."

"Yes, yes."

Su Xigui said, "Little master, I heard that a lot of things are happening in the capital now, I don't know ...... you."

Zhu Hao said: "I'm in Nanjing, so I don't think about the affairs of the capital, it's better to finish the errand and return to Beijing as soon as possible, and it's not good to be a stranger in a foreign land alone."

Su Xigui said with a smile: "The little master is a new family, and he can't do without his wife. The Huang Guild will do its best to help investigate the case, the little master does not have to worry, the contemptible people will try their best to do what Huang Gong can and can't help, you just have to wait for the news."

Zhu Hao found that Su Xigui came up with a posture to clear up the relationship with Huang Zhan.

Could it be that the accounts and other issues investigated and dealt with by Huang Zan can still be distinguished from you Su Xigui? It's like you just told me not to tell Huang Zan after you checked something?

"Then I'll wait for the good news."

The carriage drove in front of the two, Su Xigui personally helped Zhu Hao to get into the car, and watched the carriage go away, then turned around and returned to the merchant house.

……

……

For Zhu Hao, the deficit in coastal defense accounts was not the focus of his southward journey.

He wanted to help Zhu Si take over the military power in Nanjing, as for coastal defense...... After getting the military power of Nanjing, it is natural that the important task of coastal defense can be taken over step by step, and then the deployment of troops will have a great self-defeat, but the premise is to bypass Yang Tinghe's constraints first.

Plainly.

He came to Jiangnan just to prove that he didn't do anything for the new emperor, and he didn't expect him and Yu Chengxun to make some achievements in Nanjing, right?

When Zhu Hao returned to the garden, he happened to see Yu Chengxun taking people out.

"Jingdao, why did you come back? Today...... Didn't spend the night at home?"

Yu Chengxun asked curiously.

Zhu Hao smiled: "Official business is important, and besides, my relationship with the family is not very harmonious, I came out not long after, and when I saw that it was still early, I went to visit the friends I knew......

Yu Chengxun was stunned, Zhu Hao was really honest when he spoke.

You said that you went back to Zhu's house, and I still have to ask who you went to meet? But now that you've offered to find a friend, I can't help but ask.

"Respectfully, brother, do you still have friends in Nanjing?"

Yu Chengxun was very surprised.

Zhu Hao leaned over and said, "It's not a secret, in fact, Huang Butang of Nanjing Hubu is an old friend of me."

"Poof...... Jingdao, you don't want to say, you went to see Huang Butang, right?" Yu Chengxun almost wanted to vomit blood.

What is this all about?

Didn't you say you wanted to go home and save your family? As a result, I mentioned going to see a friend in a blink of an eye, which made me have to ask two questions, but you told me that you were going to see Huang Zhan?

So what is this...... How do I report to the capital?

Zhu Hao smiled: "Actually, it's because I have some dealings with Huang Zhan's brother-in-law, a businessman who does business, and I used to do business at home. As for Huang Butang's side, it's not like you can see it if you want to."

In fact, Zhu Hao didn't say whether he saw it or not, only mentioned that he was going to see Huang Zhan, and let Yu Chengxun think about it by himself.

When Yu Chengxun heard this, of course he felt that Zhu Hao hadn't seen Huang Zhan, he just wanted to see him.

A young champion, even if it is Hanlin, after arriving in Nanjing, I want to meet Nanjing Hubu Shangshu like this, and I have to schedule after submitting the post, it is likely that people are not interested in seeing you at all, so why say it and be ashamed?

"Jingdao, you should know that in fact, this Huang Butang is very close to some of the people around the emperor, and Yang Zhongtang has always had a prejudice against him, so ...... It's good for you to see anyone, but don't think about seeing him yet, and I'm going to see someone today, will you go with you?"

Yu Chengxun only thought that Zhu Hao was the kind of young man who was eager for quick success and quick profit, and wanted to climb the high branches of Huang Zhan, so he taught Zhu Hao some officialdom rules.

From a certain point of view, Yu Chengxun is also honest with Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao asked, "Who is it?"

"Oh, he is a bachelor of Nanjing Hanlin Academy, his name is Yan Song, the word is only in the middle, he entered the office very early, but he has not been in the center for a long time, and now he has just been promoted to a waiter in the Nanhan Academy and is acting in charge of the affairs of the Nanhan Academy. He is an old protégé of Yang Ge, isn't this ...... He knew that we were coming, and he called me over to talk, and I don't know what to talk about."

Yu Chengxun said this, for fear that Zhu Hao would misunderstand, and explained in addition, "Yan Weizhong, this person, is not interested in official career or anything, more like a rural Taoist in the court, I have seen it in the past, and he always speaks with the atmosphere of not eating the fireworks of the world, if you don't want to contact this kind of person, don't go."

Yu Chengxun was not wrong.

Yan Song only entered the cabinet at the age of sixty-three because he was ambitious in his later years, and now he is over forty years old and still living in Nanjing Hanlin Academy, no one thinks that he has ambitions for officialdom, plus Yan Song likes to study those Taoist things, and his speech is not in tune, which makes it easier for people to think that he is unreliable.

But such a person, thirty years later, who would dare to believe it?

Zhu Hao pondered, Yan Donglou was still a little kid at this time, maybe he was strangled in the cradle...... It's also a good choice.

But think about it.

To target a little kid, just because he has the ability to help his father in history, it seems a little crazy.

But Zhu Hao also has to think about the second half of his life, if there is someone who can threaten him Zhu Hao in the future, and may even form a fierce confrontation with him in front of Zhu Si, Yan Song's father and son bear the brunt, and who of the rest has the ability to fight with him?

Twenty years in advance, it was finally early, and Zhu Hao didn't have the heart to target Yan Song now.

Zhu Hao said: "As Brother Mao Gong said, I still don't want to join in the fun, I'll go back to the room to rest first."

"Okay, then I'll go first."

Yu Chengxun hurried away.

Zhu Hao wanted to ask why he didn't see Yang Weicong?

But thinking about it again, it is estimated that Yang Weicong also feels that he is being snubbed by Yu Chengxun now, and he is embarrassed to live in the garden again tonight, right?

When I entered the garden and asked, sure enough, Yang Weicong didn't come with Yu Chengxun in the afternoon.

Yang Weicong and Yu Chengxun seem to be the same party, but once they are suspicious within the same party, it is difficult to give them trust.

Zhu Hao thought of himself, even if he returned to the capital in the future, Yang Ting and his father and son would gradually distance themselves from him...... If you change to ordinary people, you will definitely feel a pity, but this is something that Zhu Hao can't ask for.

……

……

Capital.

Regarding the military affairs in the northwest, several times a day can be sent to the capital, and the battle reports are flying like snowflakes, especially on the front line of Xuanda, which is simply to the point of no peace, and there are a series of problems waiting for the imperial court to deal with every day...... Chen Jiuchou, who had just taken office as the governor of Xuanda, was like a *** facing a lot of troubles every day, and it was difficult to convey the decree

Xuanda everywhere.

It's just a bare-bones commander.

In this heavenly court meeting, Zhu Si specially asked Zang Feng to participate, which is equivalent to asking Zang Feng to summarize a trip to the northwest, tell the ministers present what he encountered in the northwest, and at the same time explain his actions in the northwest through court debate.

Because Zang Feng's position as the right attendant of the Criminal Department was temporarily demoted, he was still wearing a guilty body, and when he appeared in the court in ordinary clothes, many people looked at him strangely.

But when Zang Feng talked eloquently in front of the emperor and all the ministers, and talked about the problems accumulated by Xuanda over the years, the ministers present, including Yang Tinghe, knew that Zang Feng not only knew about rivers and transportation, but was also so good at military affairs.

After listening to this, Zhu Si sighed: "Zang Qing's family came out to make Xuanda, the original intention was to use your understanding of Caoyun to take care of Xuanfu's money and food, which is more than enough to take care of Xuanfu, who knows that after you arrived at Xuanda, the war also burned over, and the ministers were full of doubts about you, thinking that you didn't understand anything, and were afraid that you would delay the military plane, so you were asked to return to the court, and now it seems that ...... It's best for you to take on this errand."

The emperor's words were clearly slapping Yang Tinghe's face.

Although it was not Yang Tinghe who participated in the impeachment of Zang Feng, he did not directly intervene, but he did single-handedly promote the replacement of Zang Feng as the governor of Xuanda.

The emperor's words clearly implied that Chen Jiuchou, the successor, did not do a good job, and it was better to replace Zang Feng back.

Zang Feng knelt down and kowtowed when he heard this: "The minister failed to complete His Majesty's entrustment, and the crime deserves death, I hope that Your Majesty will allow the minister to return to his hometown to live for the sake of the court."

Zhu Sidao: "Zang Qing's family, you are not very old, why do you want to go back to retire? Isn't it good to work in Korea for a few more years? I asked Jinyiwei to check the results of the battle at Baiyangkou, and learned that Baiyangkou's false report of war exploits and other matters have nothing to do with you, and this case will be investigated after the war.

"Get up, I still want to ask you more about the affairs of the northwest, and it is also convenient to arrange the situation in Xuanda, and I also have another appointment for you."
