Sun Lan was surprised.

The husband is actually an old friend with the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant and the eunuch?

As the daughter of the eunuch's family, Sun Lan is very clear about the status of the eunuch in the court, and listening to the meaning of her mother-in-law's words, the eunuch has a very good personal relationship with the Zhu family, and they all came to the Zhu family to give gifts? Even a woman like her mother-in-law knows it?

Zhu Hao explained to Sun Lan: "Father-in-law Zhang has a close relationship with his mentor Mr. Tang, and when we got married, he also came, you may not remember."

Sun Lan didn't say anything more.

Anyway, there are too many secrets for her.

On the way back, when he arrived at the door of the house, Zhu Hao got out of the carriage and walked side by side with Sun Lan, just like a little lover pressing the road with eleven roads, Zhu Hao wanted to talk about the affairs of the family after he left, which involved some business matters, after all, Sun Lan is now the mistress of the Zhu family,

Sun Lan held back for a long time, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Xianggong sent Yongping Mansion to be the prefect, who does it mean?"

Zhu Hao said: "It is appointed by the Ministry of Officials...... Hehe, are you asking, is this what Your Majesty meant, or is it what Yang Ge Lao meant, right?"

For ordinary women, they definitely don't understand the tricks of officialdom, but Sun Lan is not the kind of ignorant lady in the boudoir.

Sun Lan nodded.

"How can I say it, it's good to go to Yongping Mansion, there is an iron mine being opened over there, and there are a lot of technical breakthroughs, so someone has to preside over it...... Iron ore mining and steel smelting have been done by craftsmen below from the very beginning, but I just made a detour for a few days when I was on an errand south, and many things were not arranged."

Zhu Hao felt that there was no need to hide everything from Sun Lan.

Even Sun Lan's father, Old Man Sun, Zhu Hao basically told him frankly, in the face of a woman who wants to live with him for the rest of his life, do he have to hide it all the time?

Sun Lan asked, "That's ...... Appointed by His Majesty?"

"Hehe, sort of."

Zhu Hao smiled.

In fact, he was appointed as the prefect of Yongping Mansion, which was instructed by Yang Tinghe, but to really implement this matter, or let Yang Tinghe associate with him and make arrangements, Zhu Hao was still behind his back.

First, Zhang Xuan was asked to step down and return to Beijing, and the emperor did not accept the newly appointed prefect of Yongping Mansion by the Ministry of Officials, and then asked the emperor to create a sign that he would punish the people who had previously co-signed the Hanlin Academy...... Yang Tinghe thought that since Zhu Hao could not stay in Beijing as the head of the household department, he would arrange for Zhu Hao to be the prefect of Yongping Mansion.

It can't be said that ten out of ten are stable, Zhu Hao just thinks about the problem from the position of Yang Ting and this old fox, Zhu Hao knows that these top professional politicians will definitely pay attention to maximizing interests, and what he designed is just a conspiracy that makes Yang Tinghe think he can maximize interests.

Yang Tinghe did arrange this.

For Yang Tinghe, it didn't seem like a loss, but it gave Zhu Hao the opportunity to go to Yongping Mansion and continue to complete his unfinished industrial plan.

The two soon arrived at the door.

But one of them stood in front of the gate of the house early and waited.

The alley outside is not wide, and this person is a bit of an eyesore standing there, Sun Lan can see at a glance that that person is his father Sun Jiao.

"Elder Sun, you are ......?"

Zhu Hao greeted him with a smile.

Sun Jiao glanced at his daughter and son-in-law, and asked in a calm tone, "Where did you go?"

Zhu Hao said: "I went back to see my mother, and after saying goodbye, I will leave for Yongping Mansion early the day after tomorrow."

Sun Jiao nodded: "The official document of the Ministry of Officials has come down, right?" It's time to prepare...... Go in and talk."

Immediately, someone from the house came out to greet him.

Zhu Hao's tone was cold: "Do you understand the rules? Sun Lao is here, why don't you invite in? Why do you let people stand outside and wait?"

Sun Jiaoyi raised his hand, interrupted Zhu Hao to question the next person, and explained: "It's the old man who said that he was taking a breath outside, and he had just been to Bohu's mansion, and there were some things, before you left, I wanted to explain it to you clearly."

……

……

Inside Zhu Hao's house.

Everything is simple and elegant

Send.

Zhu Hao and Sun Lan, the male and female hosts, usually don't live at home, they are all cleaning up and dotting, in fact, there are not many people on Zhu Hao's side, and now it is the beginning of spring, and some weeds can even be seen in the corner of the yard.

Sun Jiao walked in front, and Zhu Hao and his wife followed.

"Jingdao, you will ...... in advance when you go to Yongping Mansion."

Before he arrived at the main hall, Sun Jiao couldn't wait to ask the question in his heart, perhaps because he was afraid that his daughter was beside him, and he paused in the middle of the conversation.

Zhu Hao said: "Old Sun has something to say, and it doesn't hurt to be in the house."

Sun Jiao nodded.

Finally, I don't have to endure it in front of my daughter.

But he was in no hurry to say.

When he arrived in the living room, Zhu Hao sat down, Sun Lan was about to retreat, but Zhu Hao pointed to the chair on the side: "Sit down, listen to what Ling Zun has to say."

After parting, Zhu Hao should also make it clear to Sun Lan about some things, after all, after he leaves, the family affairs in the capital will be presided over by Sun Lan, if Sun Lan doesn't even know what her husband's political position is, how to make decisions in case of trouble? When you encounter trouble, who to notify to solve?

Sun Jiaodao: "Who are you going to work with this time?"

Zhu Hao said bluntly: "I will take the people around me, there are shops, there are also hired nurses, Jinyi Wei Zhu commanded the envoy to send someone to secretly protect, Sun Lao don't have to worry."

"Hiss......"

Sun Jiao didn't expect Zhu Hao to answer so directly.

In the past, although he knew Zhu Hao's position, he didn't know how much energy Zhu Hao had, but now he understands that when Zhu Hao is away, Jinyiwei is protected with the highest standards.

Sun Lan was listening, although her heart was turbulent, she could still accept it calmly.

"Then what about you going to Yongping Mansion? Who will be the guest? Have you settled your relationship with that side?" Sun Jiao asked again.

Zhu Haobian flattened his mouth: "Jinyi Wei Qianhu Lu Song, as well as his disciple Sun Ru, who used to be in the palace, taught Sun Fengyuan, he has been here for a long time, they will make some arrangements in advance, after I go to Yongping Mansion, I will delegate more people to govern the mansion, and I will go to the mine more."

"So, the purpose of your visit is to build a mine and forge steel?" Sun Jiao asked.

"Yes."

Zhu Hao replied very simply, "The train mentioned in the court before requires a large amount of steel, and the existing iron ore alone is far from enough, after all, Tianjin shipbuilding also needs to use steel, and the supply of timber must be further arranged."

Sun Jiao nodded slightly: "Then you are lucky enough to go to Yongping Mansion, when are you going to come back?"

Hearing this, Sun Lan finally became interested.

When will her husband return, this is what she is most concerned about, but it is still the question she was worried about before, when will Zhu Hao step down and return to Beijing, is this what Zhu Hao can decide?

"If the plan goes well, it will take about two or three months, and if it doesn't go well, it will take about five months, but it will not be more than half a year." Zhu Hao answered directly on this question.

Sun Jiao squinted, as if he meant something else: "In other words, do you think that things can be settled before the end of the year?"

Zhu Hao smiled: "Elder Sun doesn't have to hide it, let's just say it...... I think that Yang Ge is in the court, and the short time is two or three months, and the long time is four or May, and he is about to retire."

"Huh?"

This time it was Sun Lao who exclaimed.

The conversation between the father and the husband is too exciting.

A household book, with a historian of the Hanlin Academy, or the prefect of Yongping Mansion, actually talked about such an in-depth topic?

Sun Jiaodao: "Then after you leave, the layout of the DPRK and China will be arranged...... Or if Your Majesty is in trouble, how can you get involved?"

Zhu Hao said: "The Jinyi Guard will pass the post with a fast horse, not go to the official post, and I have already arranged it in advance if I can plan in advance, how to prepare for it, and how to delay it in case of undecided, I have made arrangements in advance. It's not much different from when I went to Nanjing or Xishan."

"You're pretty confident." Sun Jiaodao.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "The affairs of the DPRK and the central government, when it comes to dealing with them, is nothing more than a rational word, and the reason is clear."

"Hehe, what about you

Promise, take care of everything?"

Sun Jiao asked with a sneer.

Zhu Hao took a good time: "This court is reasonable, the four seas are the four seas of the king, the courtiers are the courtiers of the king, the prince of heaven and earth, the way cannot be violated, and the reason cannot be violated. If I am not in Beijing, there is a court matter to deal with, it doesn't matter if I have it or not, the monarchs and ministers of the court will definitely be able to discuss good countermeasures in the court, if it is not a court matter, just because the monarchs and ministers are morally violent, then everything only needs to follow the etiquette and benevolence, then it will not make a big difference whether there is me or not."

Zhu Hao was like having a debate with Sun Jiao, the more Sun Lan listened, the more frightened he became, and when he heard this, he finally couldn't sit still, and got up and said, "Father, my daughter is retiring."

She felt that her father and husband were talking about family and country affairs, and even if she could understand it as a woman, she should not be ignorant, and she had to get involved.

Zhu Hao said: "You don't have to avoid it, there are some things that should be made clear to you, I am in Hanyuan, and I only do things to repair books on the surface, but in fact, I secretly work for Your Majesty. I was born in the Xing Palace, and the whole palace and I are old friends, and even the marriage between you and me is a decision made by the Queen Mother after consultation with Your Majesty. They are for me to do things for Your Majesty, and they also have the intention of marrying me and Sun Fu to do things for Your Majesty together."

When Sun Lan heard this, there were many waves in her heart.

Although she had long known that her marriage to Zhu Hao was a political marriage, she always thought that her father chose to follow Yang Tinghe's advice in order to avoid marrying the emperor, so she was married to Zhu Hao, who had nothing to do with the emperor's power.

Who knew that this was all made possible by the emperor's arrangement.

Let's look at my father's reaction......

Obviously, her father knew about it for a long time, but he didn't tell her about it.

Sun Jiao looked at his daughter, his face was full of guilt, but he still didn't give up: "Respectfully, do you know what His Majesty summoned the old man and said to the old man before? He said that as long as you return to the court, I will let you be a bachelor of Hanlin, and it is estimated that in another year or two, you will be arranged to join the cabinet, right? After Yang Jiefu left, those who stayed in the cabinet were only stepping stones for you to reach the top of the cabinet, right?"

These words made Sun Lan's heart even more upside down.

What is my father talking about?

The cabinet scholar is an important minister of the court, and his father actually thinks that his young husband, who is easy-going by nature, is about to enter the cabinet?

Do you still say that you should be the first assistant?

Is this a joke?
