Zhang Yun has been living a very uncomfortable life these days, and his daily activity is to go to Nanzhen Fusi for a spin, and then when he comes home, he will be with Xu Xi.

Isn't it pleasant to eat chilled watermelon and hug your wife in summer.

But today, the good days came to an abrupt end, because there was news from the palace just now, and Empress Dowager Li sent Zhang Yun and Xu Yu to visit.

"Alas, what is due to come will come." Zhang Yun knew that this catastrophe could not be avoided, and Empress Dowager Li, as Li Xingyue's aunt, naturally wanted to investigate her niece and son-in-law.

"Husband, the Queen Mother won't embarrass Xiaoyu." Xu Xi asked with a worried face.

"Probably not." Zhang Yun replied softly.

However, Zhang Yun himself was also beating the drum in his heart, the last time he met the Empress Dowager Li, he still took Wanli out to wave, but he was stabbed by Feng Bao, an old thing.

Last time, Empress Dowager Li left a lot of psychological shadows on him.

"Alas, forget it, at most, you will be scolded." Zhang Yun secretly said in his heart, no longer worried.

Then he kissed Xu Xi lightly on the cheek, and then took Xu Yu and walked towards the palace.

Zhang Yun is also familiar with this palace, and he came to Cining Palace with ease.

reported to the eunuch guarding the door, and after about three minutes, the eunuch came back with a smile on his face and led Zhang Yun and the others in.

After entering the palace, I saw a beautiful woman in palace clothes about forty years old sitting on the main seat, wearing a wind robe, and on her dress, several small phoenixes were embroidered, as if chirping.

There was also a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old beside the beautiful woman, who was Li Xingyue whom Zhang Yun had seen a few days ago.

Wanli is like a good baby, standing aside.

"Minister, Zhang Yun."

"Chen, Xu Yu."

"I've seen Your Majesty, I've seen the Queen Mother."

Zhang Yun hurriedly pulled Xu Yu to kneel down and salute.

Empress Dowager Li waved her hand and asked the two to get up without courtesy.

"Hey, how is this different from the scene I imagined?" Zhang Yun muttered in his heart.

He thought that Empress Dowager Li would make it difficult for them a few times, but he didn't expect that this time, Empress Dowager Li would be so amiable.

Empress Dowager Li looked at Zhang Yun's expression and said with a smile: "Zhang Yun, you go out with the emperor first, I will talk to Xu Yu and Xingyue about some common words, you go by yourself, you don't have to wait here." ”

When Wanli heard this, he smiled, and after asking the Empress Dowager Li to leave, he left Cining Palace.

"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law." Xu Yu pulled up the corner of Zhang Yun's clothes and shouted in a low voice.

Zhang Yun patted him on the shoulder, then gave him a look of encouragement, and followed Wanli out of Cining Palace.

After Wanli and Zhang Yun left Cining Palace, they immediately went directly to the Huangji Palace.

"Huhuhuhu....." Wanli gasped for breath to relieve the tension he had just had.

The two monarchs and ministers looked at each other's slightly embarrassed appearances and smiled at each other.

After a long time, Wanli slowly spoke: "Zhang Yun, I heard that you have recently made a new trick. ”

"The minister is just saving some money for his children and earning some hard-earned money." Zhang Yun smiled.

When Wanli heard this, he smiled lightly: "That's it, I don't want more, this time I want you to do it, okay?" ”

"No, no, two percent is too much, and the minister still has to pay for it." Zhang Yun hurriedly refused.

This is a pure money grab, this is not like the cost of joining a group, and the cost is still not small.

"Okay, I'll take a percentage of your profits, and if you don't agree, I'll be angry." Wanli pretended to be angry.

Zhang Yun saw that Wanli had said everything about this, and it was difficult to refute his face, so he had to nod and promise him.

"Okay, okay, you can rest assured that I will never take other people's things for nothing, if you give birth to a son, I will shadow you again, and I will be a thousand households for Jinyi."

"How? Isn't it a surprise? ”

Zhang Yun smiled after hearing this, and began to complain about the unborn child in his heart: "You are a cheat father." ”

In order to earn it back, Zhang Yun decided to have more sons, but as soon as he thought of Xu Xi's crime, Zhang Yun felt a little distressed and dispelled this idea.

"By the way, how is the recruitment of the Changning Army?" Wanli cared about the Changning Army.

"Alas, don't mention it, it's been almost a month, and less than 3,000 people have been recruited." Zhang Yun let out a long sigh, his face full of frustration.

Although Zhang Yun's recruitment standards are a bit high, there are too few people who come to sign up, and Zhang Yun has lowered the standards, and it is still difficult to recruit good soldiers.

This time the recruits, Zhang Yun plans to recruit all the children of good families.

As for why you don't pick from the three major battalions, the reason is very simple, last time I picked 500 people and was scolded for being so miserable, but this time it was more than 10,000 people, and I couldn't catch a sheep with wool.

Besides, there are a lot of people in the three major battalions, and if they are recruited, they must not bring their own recruits badly.

"Or I will give an order to select some soldiers from the prefectures and counties near the capital and send them to you." Wanli saw Zhang Yun's sad face, and proposed with a smile.

After all, he had just taken Zhang Yun's things.

As the saying goes: "Take people with short hands, eat people with short mouths." ”

Wanli heard Zhang Yun's reminder, as if he had thought of something, and began to shout: "Okay, good, this method is good." ”

immediately told Wanli about his plan, and Wanli nodded again and again after hearing it.

This method is indeed better than giving indicators to the state and county, and the twisted melon is not sweet.

Zhang Yun was ready to disband the remaining soldiers, let them go home with coils, and promised them that they would bring back 10 people as small flags, 50 people as general flags, and 100 people as 100 households.

As for 1,000 people, Zhang Yun never thought about it.

Back then, Han Xin sprinkled beans into the army, and it was this hand, just like a pyramid scheme, the soldiers desperately pulled people in order to be promoted.

Zhang Yun was in a good mood when he saw that his troubles were solved, and after chatting with Wanli for a few more words, he looked at the sun and began to worry about Xu Yu's situation.

"Your Majesty, Chang Ningbo, the Queen Mother will send you to see the driver." Suddenly, a little eunuch came to give the message.

The two of them didn't ink, and went directly towards Cining Palace.

After entering the main hall, I saw that Empress Dowager Li was full of smiles, and it was obvious that the conversation with Xu Yu was very pleasant.

"Emperor, Zhang Yun, this family affair is approved."

"Xu Yu, this kid is good, you guys help this kid a lot." When Empress Dowager Li saw the two of them coming in, she spoke slowly.

Li Xingyue heard this, and her face turned red.

Wanli and Zhang Yun nodded like pounded garlic.

Then he began to look at Xu Yu, the kid, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: "When did the Queen Mother speak so well?" ”

Xu Yu noticed the eyes of the two, did not speak, and responded with a slight smile.

Empress Dowager Li saw that it was not early, so she asked Zhang Yun and the others to go out of the palace, while Li Xingyue stayed by her side.

There can only be one man in this palace, and the others are either eunuchs or women.

After Zhang Yun hurriedly saluted, he pulled Xu Yu's head and walked towards the outside of the palace.
