As soon as Wei Chong came, he raised his head proudly, and a dozen or so officials greeted him under Ye Yongjia's gaze, greeting and bowing, very courteous.

"We're all about to celebrate the New Year, don't you guys say it, wouldn't it be boring?" Wei Conflict suddenly stopped and looked at the crowd.

"This ...... Of course we do! A member of the official took out a red paper bag from his waist, sealed it, and taught Wei Shuban to check it, and it was filled with silver.

"Not bad." Wei Chong didn't mean to be grateful, but replied contemptuously.

The man ran down merrily, and the crowd rushed up and brought the money as if they were eager to put it in his mouth.

Wei Chong was collecting the money vigorously, and suddenly Ye Yongjia squeezed into the crowd, but he had a straight face and didn't say a word.

"The official has to give you a copy too, right?" He opened his mouth and said solemnly.

Wei Chong's expression became stiff, coughed a few times, and hurriedly pushed away these servants: "Let's go, let's go." ”

When everyone saw Lord Ye here, they didn't dare to be presumptuous, so they all ran away, leaving only the two of them standing in the courtyard.

Wei Chong smiled at him: "Lord Prefect, the right talent is a small faux pas, and I hope to forgive my sins." ”

"As my confidant, you should set an example and not encourage such unhealthy practices." Ye Yongjia turned around and walked into the study, Wei Chong secretly sneered, and followed.

"What does King Wanjun say?" Ye Yongjia asked.

"King Wanjun said that on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, the curfew can be opened, so that the people can rejoice and rejoice for a day, which can ease the atmosphere in Nanjing these days."

"I still need to do it......"

When Wei Shuban heard this, on a whim, he hurriedly said: "It is a great achievement to do this well, but if it is not done well, there will be riots one after another, and you are the one who bears the blame." The villain dared to recommend himself, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, I organized the opening of the curfew. ”

"Huh?" Ye Yongjia turned his head, as if he felt that his words were inexplicable.

Wei Shuban knew that he would be wrong, and he was stunned in embarrassment.

"Ah...... The official should think carefully and ponder. He pressed his forehead with his left hand, his eyebrows tightened, and a few wrinkles appeared on his face.

He thought about it for a while, only to realize that Wei Chong had not left, so he pointed to the door: "I'm fine." The book office went back and rested...... I said, think about it. ”

Wei Chong said goodbye and walked out of the study.

How to solve Wei Chong's problem has become something that Ye Yongjia has been thinking about. He closed his eyes and thought about it for a while, but his head was still a mess, and he couldn't get it anywhere.

He took a cup of tea and looked through the paper window at the silent and deserted courtyard outside.

He's lived in Nanjing for so long, let alone a think tank, and he doesn't even have a confidant to trust - he hasn't even fully adapted to it now.

Not only must all the strategies be hidden in the bottom of the heart, but also to carry out them single-handedly. Both are indispensable.

Ye Yongjia first remembered Hu Qi. This person hates Wei Chong deeply, and this can be seen from his words and deeds, not to mention the original redundancy incident, he showed hesitation when the Wandang protected Wei Chong.

His role is to fight Wei Chong today. But after all, he is an eagle dog lackey, flattering Wan Heshun's 'Jun Will', and he must first impress Wan Heshun before he can seize power in one fell swoop.

'Since the two parties have reconciled, why not promote their unity? Ye Yongjia flashed this thought when he landed, and he slapped his thigh with joy. 'Yes! If the two of them are united, how can Wei Chong still have the value of use! ’

He almost jumped to his feet and walked around the study two or three times before he slowly calmed down and returned to his chair.

With Chinese New Year's Eve looming, he had to make another preparation: giving himself full authority to open the curfew.

Either way, the palace is worth a visit.

Ye Yongjia got off the carriage at the palace, walked into the palace, and heard that the king of the county was sleeping at noon on the way, so he was placed in the living room by several servants and waited.

He had just taken a few sips of idle tea, and when he saw that Hu Qi, the secretary of the ministry, also happened to come, they saluted each other and sat down to talk.

"Master Hu, do you have to continue to cut redundancy?" Ye Yongjia asked worriedly.

"If the king of the county does not let go, it will be difficult to make decisions in the future." Hudge sighed.

Seeing his hesitation, Ye Yongjia complained slightly: "If you make more redundancy, I don't know how many grievances will be created." Your subordinates will suffer even more. ”

Hu Qi smiled bitterly: "Who doesn't want to calm the war." ”

"Only Wei Chong is here to ask for merit and reward, and he can't hurt a single hair." Ye Yongjia gritted his teeth and said.

When Hu Qi heard Wei Chong's name, he was also a little angry: "This mess is in trouble in Nanjing, and the arrogance is too great!" ”

"Moreover, Wei Chong still wants to take the credit for breaking the curfew," Ye Yongjia took the opportunity to fan the flames, "If this matter is successful, will he Wei Chong still be an insignificant chess piece in the heart of the county king?" ”

Huchi seemed to be told through his heart, and he stomped his feet and sighed, unable to help himself.

"He will be the most powerful henchman in the eyes of the county king! At that time, you will be pulled off the horse, and the consequences will be unimaginable......" Ye Yongjia said in a heavy tone, "Think about it, this is not only for my consideration, but also for your future." ”

Under his repeated encouragement, Hu Qi finally couldn't bear it anymore, and grabbed Ye Yongjia's arm: "When the king of the county comes, I will admonish him to the death, and Bao Tinglong, the authority of the dignified prefect!" ”

"Who's in the living room?"

A lazy voice came from afar, and Wan Heshun, the king of the county, wore cloth clothes and stepped on straw sandals, and walked over.

"The King of the County." They each kowtowed.

With a kind smile, Wan Heshun helped Ye Yongjia up: "Governor Ye, since I agreed to open the curfew, why bother to come again, don't you worry about Wei Shuban?" ”

Ye Yongjia was choked by these words for a while, and shivered all over. Hu Qi was on the side to relieve him: "He said to his subordinates that there was something else to discuss." ”

"Then please talk about it from Governor Ye." Wan and by the way.

Ye Yongjia reacted at this time, and replied in a panic: "Redundancy!" Redundancy! I think that the redundancy can be stopped for a while, so that the officials can have a good year, stabilize the political situation in Nanjing, and then make plans in the future. ”

"Then you have to tell Yue Gong, see what kind of attitude he has, I have always been determined to avoid disputes." Wan Heshun slowly stroked his beard and looked very kind.

"We all know the temperament of the county king very well," Ye Yongjia said with a smile, "I believe that the same is true of Yue Gong." I privately think that when we take the opportunity of opening the curfew, we can dispel some misunderstandings and stop redundancy. ”

"What do you mean by ......?" Wan Heshun looked completely unaware.

"Let the soldiers of the Duke of Vietnam, together with the officers and soldiers, do the task of picketing thieves on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve." Ye Yongjia said word by word, afraid that Wan Heshun would not hear clearly.

"Who's in command?" Wan Heshun put away his smile and asked seriously.

"Yamen," Ye Yongjia pointed to his face, "Ye is in charge of commanding." ”
