As time progressed, it soon came the day of Nacai.

Zhu Houzhao appointed Miao Kui as the chief envoy and Jiang Ning as the deputy envoy to the mansion of the future empress Xia.

The guard of honor set off from the palace, and the long queue was unforgettable, and the end was extremely magnificent.

After half an hour, I finally arrived at Xia Mansion.

I saw Xia Guozhang and his family at the door to greet him, and when he saw Miao Kui and Jiang Ning, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them.

After a series of ceremonial processes, Xia Fu held a feast to entertain the two angels.

Jiang Ning and Miao Kui sat at the main table together, next to each other.

"Come, Wu Anbo, we will toast you.

This time, you and I were appointed as the chief and deputy envoys by His Majesty, and we are destined.

In addition, after Wu Anbo was wronged before, our family was hindered by the many affairs in the palace, so we were not allowed to visit in person, which was really rude.

This glass of wine, and our family apologizes to Wu Anbo, but don't blame our family. ”

Miao Kui took the initiative to toast Jiang Ning.

"Father-in-law is polite."

Jiang Ning touched a cup with him, and after drinking it all, he said with a smile:

"Jiang had just entered the career and didn't know much about the rules.

Although he was favored by the first emperor, he was also alone.

Fortunately, my father-in-law helped me many times, so I have today.

Such kindness, Jiang always remembered it in his heart, and he didn't dare to forget it.

Yes, I should respect my father-in-law. ”

No matter what kind of intention Miao Kui had to befriend him, the established facts were there, and Jiang Ning had to remember them.

And Miao Kui listened to Jiang Ning's sincere words, and his face was immediately full of red light.

I had just drunk a glass of wine, but I looked like I was already drunk.

He looked around and saw that everyone was toasting each other, not paying attention to the two of them, so he immediately leaned into Jiang Ning's ear and whispered:

"I heard that Your Majesty has the intention of setting up an internal factory and letting Wu Anbo be the commander, yes or no?"

Jiang squinted his eyes.

He deliberately let the news get out, but he didn't expect someone to come to the door so soon.

After a moment of silence in his heart, he said quietly:

"Your Majesty has this intention, but Jiang thinks that it is just a joke for a while, and it can't be true."

Miao Kui smiled: "Wu Anbo Shicai also said that he remembered the kindness of our family, how could he pretend to be confused so quickly."

Our family knows Wu Anbo's worries, so let's just say it.

This abrupt mention of this matter is actually to join forces with Wu Anbo. ”

"Teaming up?"

Jiang Ning raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Miao Kui attached to the ear canal:

"Our family was ordered by the first emperor to reopen the West Factory, although it was intended to supervise the East Factory and Jinyiwei.

But after all, they have existed for a long time, their power is huge, and they are intertwined, and it is difficult for our family to improve for a while.

I'm even afraid that one day they will take the handle and lose my head.

Now that His Majesty wants to set up an inner factory, it will inevitably be targeted by the East Factory and Jinyiwei.

What's more, if the inner factory wants to seize the right to supervise taxes, the east factory and the celebrant supervisor are afraid that they will fight for their lives and put the inner factory to death.

I don't know how Wu Anbo plans to fight his way out of the sky? ”

Jiang Ning looked at Miao Kui's white and beardless old face, and said for a long time: "I joined hands with my father-in-law to turn him upside down." ”

"Then our family will definitely help each other."

The two raised their glasses together and touched them in the air.

Just when the West Factory and the Inner Factory quietly set an alliance, a sudden change occurred on the Emperor's Tomb.

Zhang Mingyu, who was dressed in tatters, cursed Jiang Ning viciously while struggling to carry the stones.

"What are you eating, among all the hard soldiers, you are the slowest worker, don't you want to eat!"

The overseer who was staring at him on the side scolded, and then waved his whip and whipped it on Zhang Mingyu's back.

Zhang Mingyu staggered and fell straight to the ground.

He used to be delicate and white and tender comparable to a woman's back, but at this time he was already covered with blood and pus.

"Look at what, look at the master, the master will whip you to death."

The overseer whipped another whip and shouted, "Get up and get to work." ”

"I, I'm going to untie my hands."

Zhang Mingyu struggled to get up.

"Shit, just say shit, what the hell untie it, go quickly!"

The overseer gave him two more lashes before letting him go.

Zhang Mingyu glanced at him resentfully, and staggered to the toilet in shackles.

At this time, a night fragrance car happened to pass by.

He glanced at it casually, and his heart beat faster.

Because the one who pushed the cart was the housekeeper who had been working in Zhang's Mansion for decades, a middle-aged man in his forties.

"Uncle Gao!"

Zhang Mingyu called excitedly.

"Childe, don't be loud."

Zhang Gao booed, and said: "The villain got the master's order and came to save the son." ”

"Okay, let's go."

Zhang Mingyu nodded again and again.

"Childe, don't worry, you need to prepare."

Zhang Gao said, and actually pulled out a corpse from the special camera obscrama at the bottom of the night fragrance car.

I saw that the corpse was similar to Zhang Mingyu's body, dressed in a rotten prison uniform, and his face had been smashed.

Zhang Mingyu immediately understood when he saw it, and worked with the housekeeper to throw him to the bottom of the valley not far away, creating the illusion of trying to escape and falling off the cliff.

"This time I have to be wronged, and I am hiding in the night fragrance car."

"It's okay, as long as you can get out, it's nothing."

Zhang Mingyu hid in the dark box.

The thought of escaping made him so excited.

Because of this, he will be able to take revenge on Jiang Ning and Su Luoxian.

During these days in the imperial tomb, Zhang Mingyu was thinking about how to torture them day and night.

It's just that the master and servant don't know that everything they do is being looked at.

Even in order to cooperate with them, the guards were deliberately relaxed.

In a bush, Zhang He looked at the night fragrance car in the distance, smiled coldly, and beckoned.

"Go, find that corpse for me, whip it hard, and throw it back."

"Yes."

Afternoon.

Zhang Mingyu, the son of the former Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites, fell off the cliff because of his escape, and it spread throughout the emperor's tomb.

When Zhou Shang learned of this, he hurriedly reported it to the imperial court.

Since then, Zhang Mingyu has been a real dead man.

Forbidden City, the Imperial Study.

An official of the Ministry of Rites is reporting to Zhu Houzhao on the process of the wedding day.

"Your Majesty, there will be four edicts to accompany the queen at the right time......

Zhu Houzhao interrupted: "Which four?" ”

The Ministry of Rites officials immediately reported four names.

Zhu Houzhao said unhappily: "How can there be no Mrs. Wu Anbo?" Quick, put, well, replace Shou Ninghou's wife. ”

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Wu Anbo is just a third-grade order, a little lower."

The officials of the Ministry of Rites were embarrassed.

"Then I will make an order and seal it as a one-product order! It is one grade higher than Mrs. Shouninghou of Raushzi. ”

"Your Majesty, this is not a ...... of etiquette"

Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was furious again, the official of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, the minister changed the four orders into six orders, and arranged Mrs. Wu Anbo to be in it. What do you think? ”

"So be it."

Zhu Houzhao flicked his sleeve robe, and finally recovered his complexion.

The official of the Ministry of Rites couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his face.

In my heart, I was speechless about the dragon of Wu Anbo's holy family.

Two days later.

Jiang Ning was finally busy with all the preparations before the wedding, and then he had free time to go home.

As soon as he entered the door, he found that the red lanterns in the house were hung high, and there were red silk fluttering, which was extremely festive.

Seeing this arrangement, he remembered that he and Zhu Houzhao got married on the same day.

But when he thought that he would inevitably be busy in the palace until late that day, Jiang Ning smiled bitterly.

Yes, the two brides who are as beautiful as flowers are afraid that they are not going to stay alone in the empty room.

Jiang Ning put aside his thoughts and slowly paced towards the hall.

As soon as they entered, Su Luoxian and Lu Qingming, who were talking to Li Yun'er, saw him and ran away quickly.

The two pretty faces were all ashamed, and they were still holding something in their hands.

It is bright red, and there are pearls and jades to match.

It seems to be the phoenix crown Xia cloak worn when getting married.

"What's wrong with them?"

Jiang Ning looked at Li Yun'er and Zheng Fangrui in confusion.

Zheng Fangrui covered her mouth and chuckled a few times, and said, "Master, a few days before getting married, the bride and groom are not allowed to see each other. ”

Jiang Ning suddenly walked to the seat and sat down.

What a rule-breaking, isn't this torture?

Suddenly, he found that there was also a set of big red robe skirts on the table, and said strangely: "Then whose is this set of phoenix crown xia cloak?" ”

Jiang Ning subconsciously looked at Zheng Fangrui.

Because Li Yuner said several times before, she would also be included in the door.

So Jiang Ning naturally thought that it was the little wife who made her own opinion.

Zheng Fangrui saw his burning eyes, and immediately guessed what he was thinking, and her beautiful face turned red.

"Master, madam, the slave still has some things, so I'll retreat first."

With that, she stepped on the lotus foot and walked out of the hall quickly, and closed the door with her hand.

Seeing Zheng Fangrui like this, Jiang Ning acted more and more, and couldn't help but look at Li Yun'er.

I didn't want my little wife to laugh out loud, and quipped:

"Xianggong, this is someone's command, who do you think it is?"

Jiang Ning listened and showed embarrassment.

"Okay, I dare to make fun of your father-in-law, I'm afraid that I will have to deal with it by family law."

In order to hide his weakness, he picked up the smiling Li Yuner directly and put it on his lap, and hit her behind a few times.

Crisp and loud.

Li Yun'er's little face was flushed, and she said shyly: "Xianggong, people know that they are wrong......"
