Sheng Minglin watched them talk, and suddenly said, "Fourth brother, why don't you come down to meet us at noon?" ”

The fourth prince raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

Sheng Minglin also looked at him and didn't speak again.

Generally speaking, the princes would not participate in such gatherings, which would poke the sensitive nerves of the emperor's father.

But that's average.

The fourth prince is not an ordinary prince.

He is the master of the Ming Dynasty verified by history, and it is a question given by God, and the most important thing is that Zhuzhu has been close to him since he was a child.

Therefore, although outsiders don't know, insiders know in their hearts that his status is as stable as Mount Tai, and as long as Emperor Mingxi is not dizzy, he will definitely not think about replacing him.

Once a son of heaven and a courtier, no matter how close the father and son are, the four princes also need to have their own team.

And tomorrow's gathering, it can be said that the second generation of the Beijing officials, the second generation of the second generation, the second generation of the world, all the people who should come, so take this opportunity to take a look at these people, see who has this heart, and what skills each person has, it is also quite cost-effective and necessary.

At most, someone will chew a few words behind it! After the clear decree of the reserve came down, naturally no one dared to chew it.

The four princes weighed it, nodded, and acquiesced to the suggestion.

Sheng Minglin said with a smile: "We made an appointment at the Xu family restaurant in the city. ”

The four princes still nodded, Zhuzhu got up late, they could play from the mountain, and then go to the restaurant to eat at noon, just to meet, and see how long they stayed.

Tuanzi kept the two of them wide open throughout the whole process, watching the communication between the two.

The fourth prince had never had any expression on his face, but as soon as he and Sheng Minglin looked at each other, they felt that they had communicated a lot.

The dumplings didn't know how strong they were, and suddenly turned their heads and said, "Pot, pot." ”

Sheng Minglin looked at her, the little fat group tilted his head, and looked at him with a particularly serious expression.

Sheng Minglin smiled: "What's the matter, what does Zhu Zhu'er want to say?" ”

Tuanzi still maintained that expression, and felt that learning the four pots was very similar, and said with a solemn face: "There are not a few beads, but there must be a few pots and pots." ”

Sheng Minglin laughed, and the four princes couldn't help but laugh.

At this moment, the little guy outside reported that Cheng Chongjin came over.

Sheng Minglin smiled and called him in, Cheng Chongjin came in and saluted, and said, "Lord Shizi, I also received a post for tomorrow." ”

Sheng Minglin raised his eyebrows: "Your father is a secretary of the ministry, what's so unusual about you receiving posts?" ”

Cheng Chongjin smiled and didn't say much, just said, "Yes." ”

In fact, even if it is a concubine, there is no such worthlessness, a promising concubine or someone who supports him, he can enter the normal communication circle, and no one will talk about the identity of the concubine, at most two sentences behind his back.

Especially Cheng Fengqi has no other sons, he is a big official, and he can be regarded as Jane in the emperor's heart, so Cheng Chongjin's status should not be so low.

But the bad thing is that the Cheng family has a madman like Cheng Biyu, so if someone befriends Cheng Chongjin, it is like openly declaring war with Cheng Biyu and the Yan'an Marquis Mansion, so everyone has more than one thing, and naturally they will not take the initiative to ask him.

To put it bluntly, Cheng Fengqi still doesn't act, otherwise if he puts his attitude out, no matter how crazy Cheng Biyu is, there will always be someone on Cheng Chongjin's side.

Although Sheng Minglin is relieved now, he still has some resentment towards this kind of father, and is willing to add a little blockage to Cheng Feng, and is also willing to pull Cheng Chongjin, so he smiled and said: "Otherwise, you will follow my fourth brother Ming'er," he compared to the fourth prince: "Go hunting." ”

Cheng Chongjin was stunned: "Lord Shizi, I didn't mean that." ”

"I know," Sheng Minglin smiled, "but that's what I mean." ”

Cheng Chongjin paused and lowered his head: "Thank you." ”

In fact, Cheng Chongjin came here, both to thank and apologize, Cheng Biyu is gone, everyone may be happy to make friends with him, but in the final analysis, this matter is to thank Sheng Minglin, and he feels sorry that Sheng Minglin was originally kind to save people, but he was forced to become a person he "climbed", and everyone may have a lot more evaluation of his character because of this.

It's just that this subtlety is hard to say, so he can only come over and express his attitude.

But unexpectedly, Sheng Minglin asked him to follow the four princes.

The Four Princes are not what he can follow, they must be summoned by the Four Princes or the Little Princess, so it will not seem that he is frivolous, but will only make people pay more attention to him.

The fourth prince didn't expect Sheng Minglin to say this.

He knew Sheng Minglin's intentions and trusted his vision, so he turned his eyes, looked at Cheng Chongjin, and said, "Sit." ”

Cheng Chongjin thanked and sat down, and the fourth prince asked, "I heard that you often wander the neighborhood?" ”

When Huo Shenzhao heard this, he came over and hugged Zhuzhu.

Tuanzi was about to sleep, and he didn't wear shoes, so he was carried away by him, looked back, hugged his face with both hands, and bit his ear: "Beautiful pot pot, don't you think, the four-pot pot, the pot pot, and the careless pot pot are all strange and strange adults?" ”

Huo Shenzhao smiled: "What's strange? ”

Tuanzi's little head shook and muttered seriously: "It's just a tie, they are the same......"

She opened her eyes wide, and leaned over to look at him: "It's like a debt in the heart of a mouthful, and then babbling and babbling and ......babbling and babbling

She quickly burst out a string of children's words, her little head shook wildly, to show this intensity, and then pinched her small mouth: "My heart is very fast, I talk a lot, I don't speak...... Just, it's just a memorial, do you understand? ”

Huo Shenzhao laughed and fell.

The wisdom of politicians is all unspoken, and when she said this, she suddenly felt so funny.

Because Zhu Zhu'er hadn't walked out yet, Cheng Chongjin arched his hand and didn't start answering, the three of them all heard it, Sheng Minglin laughed, and the four princes couldn't help laughing.

Huo Shenzhao had already gone out with Zhuzhu in his arms, and the Seventh Prince and Shen Lingjue had always been like Zhuzhu had a rope on their bodies to lead them, so they went out without thinking about it.

Cheng Chongjin began to answer: "Yes, Your Highness." ”

He explained: "At that time, my biological mother was seriously ill, and I didn't have any money in hand, and I couldn't use it as a thing in the house, so I came out to find a way to make money, I originally thought that only this kind of self-defamy way to make money, others would not stop it, and then my mother's medicine money was enough, and I didn't stop, one was to make a little more money just in case, and second, at that time, I suddenly figured out something." ”

The fourth prince nodded and motioned for him to continue.

Cheng Chongjin continued: "In business, the word reputation is always important, even if the business you do looks very unacceptable, it is the same, as long as the reputation is good enough, for people who are not very bad at money and have a little knowledge, it is more important than saving money." ”

He paused, "Besides, when I was fame to the end, I suddenly felt that fame was not too important. I seriously wondered if I was comforting myself, but I also wondered if I had thought of another business at the same time, which would have made half the money and had a good reputation, would I have chosen that one? ”

"No, I'm still going to choose this one. Fame is important, but sometimes it is not important, and in the face of 'momentum', it is not very important. If I had figured these things out earlier, I would never have had such a hard time in the past two years. ”

He has something to say, it's hard to say.

But the four princes and Sheng Minglin all understood.

When Master Cheng is not counted as the "potential" behind him, and Cheng Biyu has the "potential" of the Hou Mansion and the Cheng Mansion behind him, no matter how good his reputation is, it is useless.

The fourth prince said: "You think so, left." ”
