Absorbing Zhu Hao into the cabinet is a good way for Fei Hong to balance Yang Yiqing.

But the problem is that at that time, the cabinet has become a place for Zhu Hao and Yang Yiqing to fight, and what is the matter with him Fei Hong?

But if Zhu Hao doesn't come, it will be difficult for Fei Hong to prevent Yang Yiqing from rising in the cabinet......

For Fei Hong, there is also a trade-off to make.

Just like the problem that Zhang Xuan encountered at the beginning, in order to balance Zhu Hao, he tried to get Yang Yiqing back to the court, and was ready to form a party with Yang Yiqing, but Yang Yiqing had not returned to Beijing yet, and he Zhang Xuan lost ground in the confrontation with Zhu Hao.

And Liu Chun proposed to do this, the main reason was really not to help Fei Hong or himself, it was purely out of selfishness to help Zhu Hao.

……

……

The other side.

Discussions about Yang Yiqing's entry into the cabinet continue.

And after Tang Yin stopped in the capital for the first seven days, the coffin containing his body also set foot on the way back to Gusu, but before leaving, there was a simple ceremony, which was to let Tang Yin's coffin take a train to Xishan.

After all, Xishan is a semi-industrialized city built under the supervision of Tang Yin, and many people in Xishan remember Tang Yin's great achievements.

Because Zhu Si did not allow Zhu Hao to leave the capital for the time being, Zhu Hao did not go out of the city to see him off that day.

Wen Zhengming came over and said to Zhu Hao: "I have discussed with the people of the Tang Mansion that Mrs. Tang will not return to the south for the time being, and will stay in Beijing to wait for delivery." ”

Tang Yin passed away, and his wife, who had not been in the house for a long time, would give birth in more than two months, so it was obviously not a good choice to let him go through the hard journey at this time.

Zhu Hao nodded in agreement.

In fact, it is really not his turn to call the shots for this kind of thing, but it seems that everyone in the Tang Mansion feels that everything should be decided by Zhu Hao, a student.

Sending Tang Yin's coffin out of the capital, Zhu Hao's task seems to be completed, he should also go home to rest, after seven days of vigil, he is already physically and mentally exhausted, and he can finally change out of mourning clothes and slowly return to a normal life.

Although he is not Tang Yin's personal scroll, he is Tang Yin's disciple, and in Tang Yin's posthumous affairs, Zhu Hao can say that he has fulfilled the responsibility of a student.

Before going home to see Sun Lan, Zhu Hao went to see Lou Suzhen.

When I went to the workshop and asked Ouyang Fei about Lou Suzhen's situation, I learned that Lou Suzhen said that she didn't care, but in fact, she felt more uncomfortable than anyone else, she hadn't had a good rest in the past few days, and even drank and fell on the stone platform in the courtyard one day, thanks to Ouyang Fei and two female workers to help her to the room to rest.

"Ma'am."

Zhu Hao came to a loom, and Lou Suzhen was in a daze at the loom at this time.

Lou Suzhen heard Zhu Hao's voice, her body was agitated, and she subconsciously turned around and looked over.

"Childe doesn't have to keep a vigil anymore?" Lou Suzhen asked, "I heard the sister of the Sun family say, you haven't been back for a few days, and you can't untie your clothes, you should be very tired, right?" ”

Zhu Hao shrugged: "Fortunately, Mr. Tang walked quite peacefully, and you can see him for the last time." Izumishita has knowledge, and he should feel very relieved. ”

Lou Suzhen felt sorry for herself and said, "Maybe it's better not to see it." ”

Zhu Hao heard it all of a sudden, Lou Suzhen probably took a last breath for Tang Yin, and she didn't swallow her breath, but she opened her eyes after hearing her voice, and then smiled at Jiuquan, and couldn't help but feel nostalgic.

She inevitably thought that if she didn't go, maybe Tang Yin would be able to live a little longer.

Zhu Hao said: "It's better not to leave any regrets in life." ”

As she was talking, Ouyang Fei brought the tea over, and then she was a little unable to advance or retreat, because she didn't know her identity, she seemed to be Zhu Hao's slave, like Zhu Hao's concubine, and seemed to be a long-term worker who worked for Zhu Hao.

"Let's go down."

Zhu Hao waved his hand and said, "I'll talk to Madame again." ”

"Yes."

Ouyang Fei saluted and retired.

Lou Suzhen said: "You don't need to accompany me, you go back to meet the sister of the Sun family first, she remembers you very much, you are now harmonious, you are really envious of others." ”

"Why does Madame say that? Recently, I have a lot of things to do, and after I am busy with Mr. Tang's posthumous affairs, I should worry about sailing after the beginning of spring, and I don't know what the situation at sea is now, but the amount of cloth required by the household will increase this year, and I am ready to drive the weaving workshop to the south of the Yangtze River......"

Zhu Hao showed that he no longer treasured technology.

It is time to teach advanced technology to the people of the Ming Dynasty, he will no longer focus on weaving in the future, mainly make more looms, and at the same time teach more craftsmen, so that craftsmen can participate in the improvement of looms.

Zhu Hao said: "I want more people to have enough food and clothing, but I also know that doing so may make it difficult for those women who stay at home to make ends meet, which is a very tangled thing." But there is no way, this is the progress of the times, and the times cannot be stagnant because of the interests of a few. ”

"Childe's heart is different from ordinary people."

Lou Suzhen said from the bottom of her heart.

It sounded as if she had put down Tang Yin's affairs.

……

……

Before Zhu Hao went home, he went to visit Lu Zhanqing again.

Speaking of which, Zhu Hao hasn't set foot in Lu Zhanqing's courtyard for a long time, but Lu Zhanqing looks a lot more normal recently, mainly because the Lu family has shown signs of re-rising.

Lu Wan was re-recruited by the imperial court, and the Lu family was no longer guilty.

But some people have some things that have happened, and many relatives in Lu Wan's family have either died in prison in this sudden catastrophe, or they have been sent to the frontier to starve, and they can't bear the hard work and die, and some have even fallen into the red dust, and their whereabouts are still unknown.

Lu Zhanqing was very lucky, because from the very beginning, Zhu Hao came forward to protect her, so that she could avoid the impact of this catastrophe.

"Sir."

When Lu Zhanqing saw Zhu Hao, he didn't seem very happy, probably because he felt very familiar, and he didn't even need to be deliberate.

Zhu Hao nodded.

The yard has been cleaned up, Lu Zhanqing originally said that she was going to teach women's studies, and at the same time planned to let her get in touch with the workshop, but then she still concentrated on running the shop, and after achieving stable profits, she would completely hand it over to the people below.

Now Lu Zhanqing is more like a strong woman who has been beaten by society, and her hair is combed up, giving people the feeling that she is the outer house raised by the dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital, no one knows who she is, and others don't know which backer she is, in short, others call her "Zhu Shopkeeper", and she is also happy to call herself Zhu Hao's concubine.

"Should I call you Miss Lu, or Mrs. Zhu?"

Zhu Hao was also a little confused.

I haven't seen you for a long time, and it's still a little raw to meet again.

Especially after Zhu Hao and Sun Lan had a relationship, Zhu Hao also regarded Sun Lan as a confidant and turned it into psychological comfort.

And Lu Zhanqing and Ouyang Fei are tied to him because of some entanglements of interests, and they are far from having any feelings, even if they really want to get along for a long time in the future, Zhu Hao will definitely not be able to pour too much affection into them.

Lu Zhanqing said: "The master said that he was laughing. ”

Immediately, she invited Zhu Hao to sit down in the main hall and let the maid serve tea.

Then he brought a wooden box, and when he opened it, it was full of gold and silver.

"The concubine doesn't know how to operate, and after a year, she earned five hundred taels of silver, which made the master laugh." Lu Zhanqing said.

Zhu Hao asked, "What is this?" Are you going to redeem yourself? ”

"The concubine has no such intention, this is the income of the concubine to help the master take care of the store, since she should hand over everything to the master, the concubine originally wanted to send the master to the mansion, but she was afraid that it would be inconvenient."

Compared with Ouyang Fei's businessman's background, he naturally has a sense of cowardice, Lu Zhanqing is a famous daughter, everyone is beautiful, if he really wants to match Sun Lan, he will definitely not lose.

But Lu Zhanqing also knew that she was not qualified to argue with Sun Lan no matter what, even if she found someone to send the silver, it would be regarded as a declaration, but it would embarrass herself, so Lu Zhanqing knew each other very well and had been waiting for Zhu Hao to take the initiative to come.

But Zhu Hao is so busy...... How could you take care of her?

It's probably a luxury to see each other once a year.

Zhu Hao said: "What should you give me with the money you earned by your own ability?" Stay and use it as a reavenant. I walked past the shop when I came over, and I saw that it was doing very well, and it seemed that you were quite talented in whatever you did. ”

"The lord praised it falsely."

Lu Zhanqing said, saluting, "Does the master want to stay today?" ”

Zhu Hao shook his head: "No." ”

Obviously, Zhu Hao did not plan to accept Lu Zhanqing for the time being.

The two of them are not very old, and young men and women who have not yet reached the age of twenty, should they be in a hurry to accomplish good deeds?

Zhu Hao felt that Lu Zhanqing might be in a hurry to establish a relationship with him now, because the Lu family urgently needed his big tree.

Lu Zhanqing's face was a little disappointed: "The concubine doesn't ask the master to be admitted to the door, nor does she ask the master to give her a name, she just asks the master to take a look at it." ”

"Don't do that."

Zhu Hao said, "You are everyone's best girl, you and I still have a fate, but it's a pity that your family was robbed and born at the wrong time, and I can't take advantage of others." Live your life well, don't think about it, as long as you are willing to stay, you will eventually be a member of the Zhu family. ”

Probably meaning, Zhu Hao will admit that Lu Zhanqing is his person.

It's just that in terms of relationship establishment, we have to lean back.

"I was going to tell you about your grandfather, but now it seems that there is no need, you are no longer a girl in the boudoir, there should be many channels for obtaining news outside, you are a good person, and your mother must worry about the enemy coming to pick quarrels and provoke trouble, and this place has always been under the strict protection of Jinyiwei."

"Thank you, sir."

Lu Zhanqing is actually not too worried.

Before she was worried about Yang? may threaten her personal safety, but now whether it is Yang?, or with Yang? Yang Weicong, who is good friends, has left the capital and distributed places, and the Yang family, which was invincible in the past, has completely lost power.

Zhu Hao got up and left the courtyard.

After about a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped in front of his house, and when Zhu Hao got out of the carriage and entered the courtyard, he saw Sun Lan at a glance.

Sun Lan seemed to empathize, understanding her husband's hard work in the past few days, and understanding her husband's pain for losing his mentor. As an informed and interesting woman, she knows that she doesn't need to ask too much, she just needs to comfort and sympathize with her husband in her own way.

In the room, the candlelight is bright.

Little Bie is newlywed.
