Zhu Hao set off for Yongping Mansion.

Walk very low-key, in the morning the city gate just opened out of the Chaoyang Gate, no one out of the city to see off, just like an ordinary official who went to the local office, the future is uncertain, but full of hope.

Zhu Hao didn't seem to have many entourages with him, only a dozen or so people, but there were quite a few people who were secretly escorted.

Lou Suzhen did not go with him, but prepared to follow Ouyang Fei to Yongping Mansion's caravan a day later, Zhu Hao was ready to take advantage of the opportunity to go to Yongping Mansion to become the prefect to expand his business empire outside Beijing, especially in the manufacturing industry.

There is no need for the weaving workshop to be fully opened in the capital, and Anlu is beyond the reach of the whip, so it is better to open it to Yongping Mansion, whether it is supervision or scheduling, it is very convenient.

After Zhu Hao left, the pattern of the capital seemed to have changed for the time being, the minister attended the court meeting on time, the emperor dealt with it casually, the music was sparse and approved, and the implementation of the court affairs was no different from before.

But Sun Jiao, who is in the know, can still feel some differences.

At the end of the court meeting on this day, Sun Jiao didn't have to go to the household department to work that day, and could go home to rest for a day, but he didn't know which tendon was wrong, so he turned halfway and ran to Tang Yin's mansion.

This time, he learned well, and sent someone to inform Tang Yin in advance, asking Tang Yin to wait at home, and by the way, he proposed that he wanted to meet the "Mi Jingde" who had met before, which means that not only do you Tang Yin have to wait for me at home, but it is best to call your beloved disciple over and let me meet together.

When he arrived at Tang Yin's house, only Tang Yin was practicing calligraphy in the study.

"What about Jingde?"

Sun Jiao was unceremoniously, turned his head and looked around and didn't see anyone, so he asked directly.

Tang Yin was stunned for a moment, and then replied, "I went to Yongping Mansion with Jingdao."

"Went to Yongping Mansion too? Why?"

Sun Jiao was a little dissatisfied.

Why do I appreciate a person, so I let this person go?

Do you want to give me face as a household book?

Tang Yin said: "It was Jingdao who asked for it, saying that he was bringing people over and being a guest of the scene, so that he could support something to deal with...... Hey, didn't Jingdao mention it to Elder Sun?"

Hearing that it was Zhu Hao's idea, Sun Jiao lost his temper in an instant.

Originally, he mentioned that Tang Yin and Zhu Hao should bring Jingde, a young junior who has no merit and fame, but now that Zhu Hao has done it, he will immediately promote him to master.

As Zhu Hao's "hidden phase" master, the future will definitely be good, isn't this even if he listened to his old man's orders?

What is the reason to blame others?

"Elder Sun, please take a seat."

Tang Yin greeted.

Sun Jiao didn't sit down in a hurry, he first came to the table and carefully looked at the words that Tang Yin had just written with the fragrance of ink, and couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic.

He finally understood why Tang Yin could become a master of calligraphy and painting in the world, in terms of this calligraphy attainment, it is not comparable to ordinary people, even Shen Zhou, who has just passed away for a few years, can only be regarded as half a catty and eight taels compared with Tang Yin.

"Jingdao shouldn't have arrived, right?"

Sun Jiao turned his head to look at Tang Yin and found that Tang Yin had arrived at the tea table, where there was an unknown tea with a strong aroma.

Tang Yin is unofficial and light, in addition to practicing calligraphy at home, he goes out to go out, take a look, enjoy the scenery of the capital, occasionally climb the mountain to fish, and then study tea at home, and go to Zhu Hao's opera garden from time to time to listen to the opera.

In short, the small life is very comfortable.

On the surface, this is the case, but in fact, from time to time he will be called to Sixianju to act as the emperor's staff, or he will be pulled to review and review the music, in short, the current Tang Yin is the kind of senior self-contradictory combination who can be an auxiliary minister in the court and a retired person in the countryside.

Tang Yin picked up the purple clay pot, poured Sun Jiao a full cup of tea, and said casually: "Three or four days of travel, if you arrive, you will send a message back immediately, just these two days." Come on, come on, old Sun, try it, this is the Longjing tea produced by the West Lake, and the villagers came to visit and brought it specially."

Sun Jiao came over, sat down cross-legged in front of the cushion, picked up the teacup, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "There are a lot of Jiangnan celebrities who have visited you recently, right?"

Tang Yin said with a smile: "Fu has distant relatives in the mountains, let alone Tang

Somewhere in the downtown of Beijing? Now that there is a bit of a false name, there are not a few people who naturally come to see it...... In fact, when the contemptible people were in the south of the Yangtze River, they also interacted with local scholars a lot, but now it is just a courtesy exchange."

Tang Yin can't do anything else, but his communication skills are first-class. When he was not an official, he had a lot of fox friends and dog friends around him, and now he is "flying Huang Tengda", even if he is not in the court, others think that after Yang Tinghe retires, Tang Yin is at least the material to be a waiter, and those who have had a relationship with Tang Yin have come to the capital to visit as old friends.

Sun Jiao drank a sip of tea, only to feel fresh and sweet, lips and teeth, as if drinking, let the tea taste in the mouth for a long time before swallowing, slowly put down the teacup, and sighed: "Good tea...... But Bohu, you'd better see fewer outsiders, otherwise it may be detrimental to your future."

"Huh."

Tang Yin smiled freely, "There is a sentence in Jingdao that is exactly what I want, the people in this world are either trapped by love, or disturbed by fame and fortune, and they are like walking on thin ice to advance and retreat, but they are only bound by the red world, not as good as the outsiders."

Sun Jiao frowned: "Jingdao said this?"

Tang Yin smiled and asked, "Doesn't it sound very Zen?"

Sun Jiao almost wanted to squirt out the tea he had just drunk in his stomach.

You Tang Yin is really stinky and shameless, what the student said, how can you, the teacher, use it as a motto in life? It seems that you want to get rid of the red dust and become a monk.

Sun Jiao really couldn't understand Tang Yin's mentality, so he naturally didn't bother about it, and continued to ask: "Recently, the imperial court is discussing the affairs of southeast coastal defense, involving Shandong, Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian and other places to prepare for the Japanese, I don't know what arrangements Your Majesty will make?"

Tang Yin's eyes widened, and he said in surprise, "Elder Sun is asking me?"

Sun Jiao looked at Tang Yin, as if to say, I don't ask who you ask?

Tang Yin shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This kind of thing, the court has its own decision, I am not in the court, and I am not involved in the planning, how do you know?"

"You don't know?"

Sun Jiao naturally didn't believe Tang Yin's nonsense, "Do you know that the Ministry of War is currently discussing the establishment of a candidate for the Zhejiang Reserve Commander-in-Chief, and you are a big hit, and even the people in the Ministry of War respect you, how can Your Majesty not discuss such a matter with you?"

Tang Yin said helplessly: "Old Sun, I am idle in the mansion and will not participate in court disputes, and I have not mentioned to me that I want to go to Zhejiang to lead the army...... Sun Lao is too careful."

Sun Jiao was dissatisfied: "Don't talk about respectful things in everything, are you Tang Bohu, who only listen to respectful when you encounter trouble?" You don't have an opinion yourself?"

Tang Yin took a look, your old man Sun was actually in a hurry?

If it weren't for Zhu Hao's relationship, you would have come to visit me here, I would be rare? You don't know how hard it is for me to get in, do you?

Now you actually blame me for nothing to talk about Zhu Hao......

But think about it, what's the matter, I don't listen to Zhu Hao, who do you listen to? Listen to your Sun Zhitong?

"Elder Sun, you should know very well that many things about Your Majesty come from Jingdao's planning, Your Majesty has taken precautions in advance for the southeast coastal defense, and it is also because of the reminder of Jingdao, now Jingdao is not in Beijing, but when it comes to the southeast coastal defense, without him, I am afraid that it will be ...... Huh."

Tang Yin is not in his position, so naturally there is no need to shy away from it.

Anyway, you old man Sun knows everything he should know, and I might as well tell you directly.

This matter really has to listen to Zhu Hao.

Sun Jiao frowned and asked, "Are you saying that Zhu Hao's approval is needed for the southeast coastal defense and the preparation of the Japanese?"

Tang Yin said with a smile: "The words are not good, but it is roughly the same, of course, the last person to make the decision must be Your Majesty, but there is no respectful opinion, what others say, Your Majesty will not listen to it and will not adopt it."

"Elder Sun must think that Jing Dao is in power? In fact, if you think about it, you can know that Jing Dao was able to predict the rebellion for tribute that had not yet occurred months in advance, and such foresight and sagacity are convincing, and your Majesty cannot believe it."

Sun Jiao originally wanted to say, you just pushed Zhu Hao and a young man to the front desk, don't you feel a little sorry in your heart?

But after listening to Tang Yin's last half of the sentence, he suddenly lost his temper.

Think about it too.

The rectification of coastal armaments was proposed by the emperor, but in fact, it was Zhu Hao and the emperor who passed the anger in advance, and the emperor said it at the court meeting because of his absolute trust in Zhu Hao...... How do you let the emperor choose?

Listen to Yang Tinghe? Listen to the Ministry of War? Or listen to Tang Yin?

must still listen to Zhu Hao.

Put yourself in their shoes, in fact, the emperor has no better choice at all.

And the emperor listened to Zhu Hao, there was no loss for Sun Jiao, a hurry!

Tang Yin poured Sun Jiao another cup of tea, and continued: "Jingdao is considered to be a capable person who works harder, when he was in the palace, Emperor Xingxian adopted his advice more, and when he was dying, Jingdao was also by his side."

Sun Jiao asked, "At that time, no one raised it, but in fact, Jingdao is not suitable to stay in the palace?"

"Why didn't anyone mention it? At that time, Yuan Changshi was alive, and the palace planned more from him, and I was excluded from Jingdao in the palace.

"More importantly, Jing Dao also teaches modern holy classes, astronomy, geography, history, biology, and so on...... It can be said that he is tolerant of all rivers, and sometimes his respectful insight makes me feel that he is not a person in this world, but more like a visitor from outside the world." Tang Yin sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Sun Jiaodao: "Who is his enlightenment teacher? Isn't it you?"

Tang Yin shook his head: "Jingdao has always refused to explain, before me, he actually had a husband, I thought it was Wang Bo'an, but later when Wang Bo'an went to Anlu, I met him, and I also asked Bo'an alone, and he said that he had never seen such a generous and knowledgeable young man as Zhu Hao. It can be seen that Bo'an and him are just meeting in Pingshui."

Sun Jiao couldn't help but take a cool breath.

Wang Shouren's fame in Shilin now, he knows, if Tang Yin is famous for calligraphy and painting, Wang Shouren is an opinion leader who is good at academics, and scholars from all over the country follow him like a carp crossing the river, and after Wang Shouren returned to his hometown to guard the system, he opened more pulpits to promote the study of the heart, and now has formed a strong Confucian faction independent of science.

Even Wang Shouren praised Zhu Hao's knowledge, which not only showed that Zhu Hao was a good learner, but also made Sun Jiao feel that Zhu Hao had an extraordinary encounter, but he was just a young man, so he was supported by Tang Yin and Wang Shouren, and he became the most respected political star next to the emperor.

"Elder Sun, if you have any questions about the southeast coastal defense, you can come to me, I will help you go to the letter Yongping Mansion, and help you go to Jingdao to test and inquire, but please don't interfere too much with Jingdao to do things in Yongping Mansion, after all, it is an eventful autumn now, and the court and China are undecided. As for in the next ...... You still let me be a prodigal in the city, and let me live a few days in peace."

Tang Yin said with a smile.
