is different from the slaughter outside, but the Wu'anbo Mansion is extremely lively.

Because today is a small year, Jiangning invited a group of high-level executives from the inner factory to come to the house for dinner.

Including Zhou Song and his partner Yan Hui, Sun Bin, who is a good hand at making money, Huang Xingwu who is in charge of the soldiers, as well as Zhang He and Wang Miao.

Each of their families set up another feast at the back, and Li Yuner took the ladies to entertain them.

It was already dark, and lanterns were hung all over the house, illuminating them as bright as day.

There were many small maids coming and going, walking hurriedly and looking respectful, leading the high-level executives of the inner factory to the dining room.

It's really a wealthy style of bells and food.

In the dining room, the tables and chairs have long been neatly arranged, with all kinds of dishes on them, and warm wines, the aroma is fragrant, and people are mouth-watering.

Jiang Ning warmly beckoned everyone to sit down.

He Yuyao walked over first and naturally sat beside him. 、

Zhou Song and Yan Hui looked at each other and smiled, each brushing their beards, but they had no objection to this.

Originally, according to their respective qualifications and positions, they should have sat on the left and right in Jiangning.

But anyone could see He Yuyao's thoughts, and Jiang Ning didn't refuse, of course they wouldn't get together to ask for disgust.

Everyone sat down.

After the serving maid poured a glass of wine for everyone, Jiang Ning stood up and looked around at everyone:

"This first glass of wine, I salute all of you.

The inner factory has only been established for half a year, but the achievements made are extremely gratifying.

Now not only do you have money and soldiers, but the intelligence network is all over the Ming Dynasty, all of which are the work of Sasuke.

I also hope that in the coming year, we will work together with one heart and one mind to continue to make the inner factory bigger, so as to repay Your Majesty and the court! ”

"Return to Your Majesty, return to the court!"

Everyone got up at the same time and drank their glasses of wine.

"Okay, sit down, there's no need to be so polite."

Jiang Ning sat down with a spring breeze on his face.

The faces of the cadres and others invariably showed a look of indignation.

I think at the beginning, the people here were basically dispensable small roles.

But since he was appreciated by Jiangning and joined the inner factory, his career can be described as impressive.

Take a random person out here, and put it outside, it is a famous corner.

Even if he is a member of the second or third rank of the imperial court, he has to be polite.

Therefore, everyone's gratitude to Jiang Ning came from their hearts, and they secretly swore to follow them to the death.

With a round of wine toasting, He Yuyao suddenly got up and said:

"My lord, colleagues, I am not strong enough to drink, so I will go to the back hall to accompany a few ladies.

Where it is rude, look at Haihan. ”

As she spoke, He Yuyao poured another glass of wine and drank it in one gulp, which was regarded as an apology.

The crowd didn't think there was anything wrong with that.

After all, He Yuyao is a girl's family in the end, and it is really not good in a group of men.

And the most important thing is that she said that she had nothing to do with Jiang Ning, and she had to be honored as Mrs. in the future.

Who dares to really take her as a colleague.

So after He Yuyao left, the atmosphere in the banquet suddenly relaxed a lot.

Of course, Jiang Ning noticed the change in the expressions of everyone present, but he didn't notice it, and pointed to Bai Wenqing on the side and said:

"Gentlemen, in addition to celebrating the New Year and looking back on the past, I would like to introduce you to a talent.

I think you've all seen it just now, and a few people know it, so I'll talk about it here.

Bai Wenqing, who has studied art in Wudang since he was a child, is very talented and talented.

Nowadays, the inner factory is still in a period of rapid development, so the talent will not be missed.

At that moment, Wen Qing was invited to join in, and he and I ran the inner factory together to serve the imperial court. ”

As Jiang Ning's voice fell, Bai Wenqing immediately stood up, picked up a glass of water and wine and said to everyone:

"Bai Wenqing has seen all the adults.

The younger brother has just arrived, and he is not very familiar with the affairs of my internal factory, and I hope that the adults will give me advice and cultivate more in the future. ”

The tone of everyone was gentle and humble, and they had a good impression in their hearts, and Jiang Ning personally invited them to introduce, so they didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly raised their glasses in response.

There was a joyful atmosphere during the banquet.

When the wine was in full swing, Zhou Song put down the wine glass with a flushed face, and burped:

"By the way, my lord, it's not that my subordinates are disappointed, but there is an important thing that I can't mention."

"Oh, it's okay to say it."

As Jiang Ning dropped his chopsticks, everyone present stopped drinking and talking, and Qi Qi looked at Zhou Song.

Zhou Song first nodded apologetically to everyone, and then said:

"A long time ago, officials from Nanjing and other places jointly wrote to His Majesty to retain Liu and Xie, although a long time has passed, but it has not been completely calmed.

After several speech officials were arrested and put in prison, they scolded Liu Jin and Liu Gonggong in their written confessions, making him very angry when he saw it, and ordered Jinyiwei to command Zhang Cai to change the confession and call it again.

But Zhang Cai refused, so he had a stalemate with Liu Gonggong for a long time, and he was already suspicious.

And just this morning, several officials of the fifth and sixth grades in the DPRK and China were ordered to be executed by Liu Gonggong on the grounds of accepting bribes.

But in fact, the real reason is that these people have a close relationship with Zhang Cai. ”

When the words fell, Jiang Ning said directly:

"So what does Director Zhou mean is that he is afraid that Zhang Cai will come to the door and ask me to come forward to make peace with Liu Jin?"

"Yes, that's exactly what my subordinates think.

Previously, Jinyi Weijiu was under the East Factory and was coerced by the celebrant supervisor. Although there is a change of commander now, it is not a matter of three days to change this situation.

It is inevitable that Zhang Cai will end up falling into the downwind.

In order to ease the relationship, he inevitably came to the adult. After all, in the court, Gonggong Liu will only buy the face of adults. ”

Jiang Ning smiled:

"If there is such a day, then I will not see it.

Since the two families are fighting, it is still a matter of their own faces, so wouldn't it be unpleasing for me to come forward.

If I take sides, the other side will have a dislike for me, and it will inevitably breed resentment in the future, which will be unfavorable to me.

Now is a critical juncture for the development of the internal factory, or don't mix it blindly.

However, after the winner is decided, the official can come forward a little to protect the losing side and sell his favor. ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other and praised it: "Your Excellency is wise!" ”

After the wine and food were full, and the guests and hosts were happy, Jiang Ning sent everyone and their families to the door, and escorted them back carefully.

He also ordered Zhang He and Wang Miao to each lead people to guard the mansion, so as not to be killed.

It was only then that Bai Wenqing had the opportunity to say:

"My lord, my subordinates can't wait to join the inner factory, I don't know how my subordinates are going to be placed?"

Jiang Ning smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Let's go down and rest first, and you'll know when you enter the city with me tomorrow." ”

When Bai Wenqing heard this, he surrendered his hand and said that he had retreated.

Jiang Ning immediately staggered to the bedroom of the inner house.

Pushing open the door, I saw that my little wife was already lying on the bed, obviously about to rest.

"Ah, Xianggong is here."

Seeing this, Li Yun'er hurriedly got up.

Jiang Ning quickly walked over and held her down: "Lie down quickly, don't hurt your body." ”

"Xianggong, my body is not so delicate."

Li Yun'er said coquettishly, and glanced at Jiang Ning, who was making a fuss.

"That's not going to work, you have to be very careful."

Jiang Ning said, quickly took off his robe, lifted the quilt and lay in, and lowered the curtains.

Li Yun'er snuggled into his arms meekly and obediently, and said coquettishly:

"Why did Xianggong come to my room today, Yun'er is pregnant, and it is not good to serve Xianggong."

"What do you think, is Xianggong such a person in your eyes?"

Jiang Ning stroked Li Yun'er's hair dotingly, and continued:

"Since you became pregnant, it is not honest to be honest one day.

You see, there's no messing around with your hands. ”

Li Yun'er shyly buried her head in his chest, and said with a red face:

"Actually, it's nothing, I asked Sister Fangrui.

Also, today is a small year, and Yun'er doesn't want to give in to her husband. ”

After that, in Jiang Ning's stunned gaze, Li Yun'er actually shrank into the quilt.

Immediately after, he clenched his fists.

If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!

Following.

Jiang Ning sat in a sedan chair and entered the palace in the spring breeze.

And he was not the only one in the sedan chair, there was also a man dressed in the same way as him.

From a distance, the two are exactly the same, enough to confuse the public.

This person is Bai Wenqing in disguise.

Considering that Yang Yue'er and the others had not yet been caught, Guy Jiangning said that he would not take the risk of assassination.

To be on the safe side, you still need a master to protect you.

And Zhang He and Wang Miao have their own duties, and this task naturally falls on Bai Wenqing's head.

After Jiang Ning entered the palace, he found that Zhu Houzhao had not yet gone to the early court, so he was not in a hurry, and walked slowly to the Qianqing Palace.

As soon as I was halfway there, I heard the sound of bells and drums, and it was the end of the early dynasty.

And when passing through the Huagai Palace, two familiar figures walked out of it.

One is Wang Wei, the servant of the ministry, and the other is Zhang Yuan, the other is Zhan Shi.

These two people had been with him at the feast, and there was a conflict.

But after Wang Wei knelt in the snow last time, his impression of Jiang Ning was much better.

Seeing his figure, he immediately stopped and saluted.

And Zhang Yuan didn't see it, and walked straight over.

Wang Wei said embarrassedly:

"Don't blame me, my lord, I just had some conflicts with Li Shoufu, and I was angry, so I didn't say hello to my lord."

"Conflict?"

Jiang Ning's face showed a look of doubt.

"Exactly, Xia Guan has no time to explain, and he needs to persuade Lord Zhang as soon as possible."

Wang Wei said goodbye and hurriedly caught up with Zhang Yuan.

Jiang Ning felt strange in his heart.

Li Dongyang is very popular in the DPRK and China, and his relationship with these two is even better, how can there be a conflict between the good ends?
