As the officials retreated.

A new busy day has begun.

Inside the empty lobby of Jingzhao Mansion.

Xu Yi sat behind the table.

With a frown, he poured down a cup of tea that was rich to cloudy.

Immediately, he fought hard and flipped through the new thick account books on the table. jj.br>

The purge of more than 20 commercial banks has been carried out to the last moment.

If nothing else, before the sun sets today, more than 20 commercial houses will officially become a thing of the past.

At that time, three classes and one room will be completely released.

In this way, Xu Yi will have enough manpower to carry out the next plan.

As for the Divine Decree?

I don't know how long it took.

Xu Yi put down the account book in his hand and looked up at the holy decree on the edge of the table.

A smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He didn't understand the deep meaning of Emperor Zhengde.

On the contrary, Xu Yi at this time understood better than anyone what Emperor Zhengde really wanted.

But, excuse me.

This time, Xu Yi will not take the initiative to cater to Emperor Zhengde.

Before Zhan Zhu had finished reading out all the contents of the holy decree, Xu Yi had already made a decision in his heart to maximize benefits.

"Didn't you send me a message to clean up the victims of the North City?" A sneering smile appeared at the corner of Xu Yi's mouth, and he muttered, "Okay, I'll do what you want."

The words fell.

Xu Yi got up and stretched slowly.

He picked up the decree on the table and walked towards the inner house.

As soon as Fang approached the inner house, he smelled a strong aroma.

"Gollum."

Xu Yi rubbed his rumbling stomach and strode towards the kitchen of the inner house.

Halfway through the line.

Xu Yi suddenly paused, and looked at Zhao Shou who was talking with Old Man Wang with a puzzled expression.

The person in the kitchen is not Zhao Shou?

Just when Xu Yi was puzzled.

Zhao Shou trotted up to meet him: "Sixth Master, you're done."

"I'm done." Xu Yi nodded slightly.

I don't need to ask more.

Old Man Wang walked over slowly with a long step.

"Old man, please meet your lordship." Old Man Wang bowed and saluted.

After a few days of recuperation, most of Mr. Wang's body bones have recovered.

Although his steps are sparse, he can already walk alone.

Xu Yi nodded slightly and said, "Old Man Wang doesn't need to be so polite."

When Old Man Wang heard this, he saluted again before slowly getting up.

Then he said, "There have been a lot of troubles these days, but it is a hassle for adults."

Xu Yi smiled and said, "Old Man Wang is polite, if it weren't for the incriminating evidence you brought out, he would definitely still be in a hurry now."

"Not to mention that the two brothers of the Wang family have been busy day and night for Jingzhao Mansion these days."

"You, just live here in peace, and when the drought here is complete, it's not too late for you to return to the royal compound."

Before Xu Yi completely took action against those behind-the-scenes families, Xu Yi would not let the Wang family be in danger again, whether in public or private.

Yu Gong and the two brothers of the Wang family have been busy day and night in front of Jingzhao Mansion during this time.

Although the two brothers of the Wang family are from a good background, their own ability is not weak.

If it weren't for the suppression of their background, the two brothers might have become Jinshi, or they would have become parents in the same place.

Xu Yi has read the evaluation of the two of them in the master book, which is not high.

For private reasons, Old Man Wang took out Zhou Qiping's relics, which in itself was the greatest help to him at this stage, and he couldn't do such things as crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, unloading the mill and killing the donkey.

A flash of gratitude flashed in Old Man Wang's eyes, and he bowed again.

There is a promise

With these words, everyone in the Wang family can completely relax and live in Jingzhao Mansion.

Let's ask today's Chang'an City, for the Wang family, is there a safer place than the inner house of Jingzhao Mansion?

Just when Xu Yi just wanted to speak.

The unassuming belly rumbled again.

Xu Yi hasn't done it yet.

Zhao Shou's face was already flushed.

"Sixth Master, I originally wanted to make you a bowl of mutton, but I bought all the fresh mutton, but the result was ...... As a result, I forgot that I had never made lamb in the basin." Zhao Shou lowered his head with a look of shame on his face.

When Xu Yi heard this, a rare unnatural look appeared on his face.

I couldn't help but secretly regret it in my heart, I knew that this was the case, so I wouldn't eat the second bowl of mutton in the basin that day.

Good guy, let me ask the people of Chang'an City today, who doesn't know that they have eaten two bowls of mutton in the basin?

Just when Xu Yi didn't know what to say.

Wang Qiujin walked out of the kitchen with a large basin full of mutton with billowing white smoke.

After hastily placing it on the stone table in the courtyard.

Wang Qiujin hurriedly shook off her hot red fingers.

Wait for the burning sensation in your fingers to subside slightly.

Wang Qiujin said generously: "Grandpa, Lord Jing Zhaoyin, Zhao Huwei, you sit down first, and I'll go get the dishes and chopsticks."

Old Man Wang looked at Xu Yi, who looked a little embarrassed.

He arched his hand and said, "The adults are very gracious, and the old decay has nothing to repay, so I can only prepare a thin meal, and ask the adults to appreciate their faces."

"Gollum."

At this moment, the unassuming stomach smelled the aroma and chirped again.

If you refuse this time, won't you fall behind?

Xu Yi settled down and arched his hand, "There are Old Man Lao and Miss Wang."

"Old man, please." Xu Yi stretched out his hand to invite.

"Your Excellency, please." Old Man Wang said with a smile on his face.

Xu Yi was no longer polite, and walked generously towards the stone table.

Fang Yi sat down and saw that Zhao Shou was still standing in place with a face full of shame.

I couldn't help laughing, "What are you doing? Not hungry after a busy night's work? Why don't you come over and eat?"

When Zhao Shou heard this, a smile instantly appeared on his face, and he hurriedly agreed, "Yes, Sixth Master, this is coming."

After the three of them were completely seated.

Wang Qiujin held three pairs of chopsticks and a few cakes and walked over slowly.

It didn't take a while.

Three bowls of mutton appear on the stone table.

"If it's not enough, there's more." Wang Qiujin admonished, and then bowed and retreated.

"Your Excellency, please." Old Man Wang smiled and said.

Xu Yi nodded slightly, no longer greeted, picked up the dishes and chopsticks and ate.

As soon as Fang entered Xu Yi's taste, his taste buds were completely opened.

The soup is fragrant, the meat is crispy, fat and thin, and it melts in the mouth.

Xu Yi put down the dishes and chopsticks, and couldn't help but praise: "It's several times more mellow than what the vendors outside make."

Old Man Wang stroked his beard and smiled, "Since adults love to eat, let Qiu Jin cook a few more meals another day."

The words fell.

Old Man Wang hurriedly added, "I almost forgot to mention, Qiu Jin still has a few good dishes, which are no worse than this pot mutton, adults must try it."

Xu Yifang wanted to refuse, after all, he didn't leave the Wang family to covet his appetite.

Why.

Old Man Wang didn't give him the slightest chance.

Old Man Wang hurriedly added again: "Please don't refuse, the old and young of the Wang family will inevitably disturb the adults during this time, so we can rest assured, my lord."

Xu Yi sighed for a few breaths and no longer refused.

However, it can be expected that in the future, the frequency of Xu Yi's meals in the house will be greatly reduced.

A moment later.

A large basin full of mutton entered the stomachs of Xu Yi's master and servant.

Looking at the large basin with only some soup left.

Xu Yi shook his head noncommittally.

Come on.

It's completely unwashable.

Xu Yi exchanged a few words of greeting, got up and walked to the main house.

Old Man Wang looked at Xu Yi's back as he walked away, and an indescribable smile bloomed on his face.

From time to time, his eyes moved back and forth between the wing room and the main house.

The more I looked, the more smiles on my face grew.

......

Inside the main house.

Xu Yi carefully checked the dark grid.

Only then did he untie the abyss knife at his waist.

Strip off your clothes and walk to the bed.

As soon as Fang lay down, a thick sleepiness surged like a tide.

After not breathing, he fell into a deep sleep.

......

......

When the sun is shining.

In the study room of the Prince's Mansion in the East Palace.

Xu Yong sat on the chair of the first master and listened to Han Xingrong's report below with an expressionless face.

It has been two days since Xu Yi entered the palace.

In the past two days, God knows how many pairs of eyes were staring at Xu Yi.

But what can I do, in the past two days, in addition to continuing to clean up those commercial houses, Xu Yi's only big move is to kill hundreds of bullies outside Xuanping Gate early this morning.

This can't help but make the people who pay attention scratch their heads.

A moment later.

Xu Yong waved his hand slightly and said calmly, "Stand down."

"Obey!" Han Xingrong bowed and slowly exited the prince's study.

With a soft creak, the door to the study was gently closed.

When the light in the study suddenly dimmed.

Xu Yong's face also changed.

"Build a porridge shack and kill a bully, what does he want to do?"

"What is the content of the first decree?"

"If it doesn't matter, why would my father bypass the cabinet and draft the decree?"

"If it's really as I guessed, what is the meaning of Xu Yi's actions in the past two days?"

"Why didn't he do it? Is he concerned about something, or is he plotting something?"

"Why is it that only two days have passed, and the father has issued an order again, and he is still urging him, what is the meaning of his father's action?"

Xu Yong sat upright on the Taishi's chair, staring blankly at the blank rice paper on the table.

There was a constant whisper in his mouth.

And as time went by, Xu Yong's complexion became more and more difficult to see.

Faintly, there is a hint of impatience, which appears between the eyebrows from time to time.

I don't know how long it took.

Xu Yong's face was completely gloomy.

His eyes were full of frost.

"We can't sit still any longer!" Xu Yong clenched his fists and said coldly in a low voice.

This feeling of not being able to understand what the enemy is thinking and can only passively bear is really uncomfortable.

Xu Yong slowly spread out his fists, and a fierce smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He said in a deep voice, "Someone."

There was a soft "creak".

The door to the study was pushed open from the outside.

Two young eunuchs walked in quickly.

"Your Highness." The two eunuchs bowed and saluted.

Xu Yong's face turned pale, but he had completely regained his calm.

"It is rumored that Han Xingrong is here to see me." Xu Yong said calmly.

"Yes." The two eunuchs said in unison.

It didn't take a while.

Han Xingrong, who had been away for half an hour, returned to the prince's study again.

"Xiaguan Han Xingrong pays a visit to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Han Xingrong bowed.

Xu Yong waved his hand as usual and motioned for Han Xingrong to step forward.

After Han Xingrong stepped forward a few steps.

Xu Yong commanded in a low voice, "After the dispersal value. Find an opportunity to bring these two words to Song Guogong."

As he spoke, Xu Yong slowly wrote down two big characters - as usual.

Han Xingrong was a little confused, but he still nodded quickly and agreed, "Obey!"

......

......

At dusk.

In the study of the Song State Mansion.

With a haggard face, Zhang Yongnian picked up the pen and slowly wrote two big characters from the paper - as usual.

Staring at the two big characters on the paper, Zhang Yongnian couldn't help frowning.

If you talk about these two days, who is most frightened?

There is no doubt that it is Zhang Yongnian.

None of them.

That day, after touching a nose of ash from Jingzhao Mansion.

Fang Yi returned to the mansion.

The eldest princess of Dongyang rushed to the palace non-stop.

wants to plead for Zhang Jingping in person, plus sue Xu Yi.

Why.

In the past, the eldest princess of Dongyang, who could freely enter and exit the major palaces, actually ate a closed door this time.

In this way, Zhang Yongnian was really frightened.

Two days of wheezing and restlessness had already tormented him physically and mentally.

"As usual? What does that mean?" Zhang Yongnian frowned and muttered in a low voice.

It's not that I haven't thought about thinking in a good direction.

It's just that Zhang Yongnian still has some self-knowledge.

Suddenly.

Zhang Yongnian suddenly thought of something.

Hurriedly said, "Zhang Xi."

The words fell.

Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

"Sir." Zhang Xi said respectfully from outside the door.

"Come in." Zhang Yongnian hurriedly called.

"Obey."

As soon as the words fell, the door of the study was slowly pushed open from the outside.

A thin middle-aged man dressed in a housekeeper's shirt walked into the study.

The man looked thin, but his eyes were extremely sharp.

With a pair of sharp eyes, even if he didn't speak, he could still deter all the servants up and down the entire Song State Mansion.

Even the dead Zhang Zhong, when he met Zhang Xi in the Song State Mansion before, he didn't even dare to take a breather.

Zhang Yongnian asked in a deep voice, "I vaguely remember that during the day, you reported that a eunuch went to Jingzhao Mansion to preach the second holy decree? Is that the case?"

Zhang Xi replied, "Master Hui does have this matter."

Zhang Yongnian asked again, "I still remember that you said that the content of that holy decree was to ask Xu Yi to solve the disaster victims near Beicheng as soon as possible?"

Zhang Xi replied again, "Back to my lord, the content of the holy decree is exactly like this."

"Okay, I see, you can go out first." After receiving the confirmation, Zhang Yongnian's face instantly calmed down.

He received the news during the day, but after he couldn't figure it out at the time, he put the matter on hold for the time being.

In addition, the rest of my heart has been wheezing for the past two days, and the whole person's mental state is naturally not as good as before.

Even the brain is in a turbid state from time to time.

After Zhang Xi leaves.

Zhang Yongnian looked at the two big characters on the paper again, and already understood what Xu Yong wanted to express.

"Before he ascended the throne, he had already learned to play dumb riddles." Zhang Yongnian muttered in a low voice with a little dissatisfaction.

Just looking at the word "as usual", anyone will not be aware of it.

But if you think of the second decree, the meaning of the word "as usual" is almost universal.

"Zhou Qiping, Xu Yi." With two names blurted out.

Zhang Yongnian's face couldn't help but gradually become gloomy.

Emperor Zhengde urged Xu Yi to deal with the victims near Beicheng as soon as possible.

For Zhang Yongnian, this is no less than a godsend.

If you can't solve the problem, then solve the person who raised the problem.

What is the specific content of that holy decree, except for Emperor Zhengde and Xu Yi, no one knows.

Since this is the case, let's find a way to solve Xu Yi.

After solving Xu Yi, let Dongyang enter the palace again.

This time, even if you can't kneel at the gate of Zichen Palace, you must see Emperor Zhengde.

Depending on the situation, all the family wealth will be exchanged for "Zhang Jingping's release from prison"!

Zhang Yongnian's hands couldn't help but clench into fists, and in an instant, the back of his hand was covered with green tendons.

There are two completely different looks in his eyes at the same time.

One is ruthless.

The second is decisiveness.

Obviously, Zhang Yongnian has made the final decision in his heart.

"Zhang Xi." Zhang Yongnian got up and called softly again.

After Zhang Xi walked into the study.

Zhang Yongnian walked to the wall frame and slowly turned the white jade glass bottle used for decoration.

As the bottle slowly turns.

A dark secret door suddenly appeared behind the Taishi's chair.

Zhang Yongnian lit the delicate oil lamp on the table.

Slowly walk towards the secret door.

Behind him, Zhang Xi was not surprised at all, and followed silently without saying a word.

When the figures of the two disappeared into the secret door.

The secret door in the study quietly closed again.

Everything was as usual.

......

Night.

Inside the main house of the Kyozhao Mansion.

Xu Yi slowly opened his eyes and stared at the darkness for half an hour before he slowly got up.

"Zhao Shou." Xu Yi called softly.

Zhao Shou, who got up about two quarters of an hour early, replied from outside the door, "Sixth Master, Zhao Shou is here."

Xu Yi blew the fire and lit the oil lamp and asked, "What time is it?"

Zhao Shou quickly replied from outside the door, "Go back to the sixth master, it's more than three minutes."

"It's almost ten o'clock." Xu Yi muttered, moved his body slightly, and then walked out of the main house.

I saw Xu Yi walk out of the main house.

Zhao Shou put down the copper kettle in his hand and said, "The sixth master will wash up first, and the dinner made by Miss Wang will be warmed up immediately."

I heard the three words of Miss Wang.

Xu Yi couldn't help but be stunned.

Then he came back to his senses and calmly said, "Okay."

After they washed up, the food was already set up in the dining hall.

The style of the meal is simple, but the taste is not simple at all.

thought of Wang Qiujin's fierce appearance in holding two kitchen knives in the Wang family's compound that day.

Thinking of Wang Qiujin busy in the kitchen again.

For some reason, Xu Yi felt a sense of separation for a while.

I really can't tell which one is the real Wang Qiujin.

Xu Yi shook his head, threw his thoughts out of his mind, and quickly finished his meal.

Then he walked to the study.

Sitting upright on the Taishi's chair, his mind was constantly checking and filling in the gaps for the next plan.

I have three times a day, and Xu Yi, who walked out of Zongzheng Temple, actually did this perfectly.

Half an hour later.

After it has been determined that there are no major omissions in the current plan.

Xu Yi took out the scroll of holy decree from the hem of his sleeve.

Now that you've decided to maximize your benefits, it's even more important to plan ahead.

Place the decree casually on the edge of the table.

Xu Yi slowly got up to study ink and lay paper.

Then sit down and pick up the pen.

After slowly writing down this move on white rice paper, the reactions and decisions that all parties may have.

Emperor Zhengde, Xu Yong, Zhang Yongnian, and even the most likely reactions and actions of the heads of more than 20 families were all written on paper.

Time passed quietly.

When midnight falls

Border.

Xu Yi put down the wolf pen in his hand and carefully went through the contents on the paper.

Forthwith.

He took the pen and added the names of the two people on the back of the handwritten rice paper.

It's just that the two names added at the end are not living people.

There is no such thing as a set plan, let alone a set of things.

This is reality, not acting, no one will go down step by step according to the plan made by Xu Yi.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Yifang will continue to save my body three times a day!

It was late at night.

The fire in the study of the inner house is particularly dazzling in the middle of the night.

Xu Yi wrote everything he wrote today in the depths of his mind.

He put several hours of hard work into the red furnace.

With the continuous shining of the firelight, all the papers full of plans were completely turned into ashes under Xu Yi's gaze.

After the study is covered with smoke and dust.

Xu Yi walked out of the study.

Look up at the deep night sky.

The starry sky is especially noisy tonight.

Xu Yi looked up at the starry sky, and the corners of his mouth gradually flashed with a smile of unknown meaning.

Then he retracted his gaze and looked in the direction of the distant eight hundred miles of Qinchuan.

Look in the direction where the Taibai Mountain is located.

No one knows what is going on in his heart.
