In the backyard of Zhao Yougua's inn, Jiang Xia and his group of seven all sat down. Xiao killed the six of them and sat at a table alone, while Jiang Xia sat at a table with Zhao Yougua and Yuehong.

Before, Yuehong saw Jiang Xia suddenly appear, and she almost didn't drop her jaw in shock. Now Jiang Xia is so approachable, it seems that he is no different from the little servant back then, and Yuehong and Zhao Yougua are gradually letting go.

Jiang Xia asked why the two were together, and only then did he know. It turned out that after Yuehong was ransomed by Zhao Yi and Zhao Gongzi, she still couldn't enter the door of Zhao's house in the end, so she could only be Zhao Yitong's lover.

As a result, Zhao Yitong's wife knew, and finally forced Zhao Yitong to cut off contact with Yuehong.

Yuehong was helpless and had to go back to her hometown. Who knew that she met Zhao Yougua by chance in her hometown, and finally the two got married.

After working hard in their hometown for many years, with some savings, the two decided to come to the capital to open an inn. But I never thought that there were rules for opening an inn in the capital, and the rules were to be dotted in many ways.

Their small inn was not doing well, and there were many people to deal with, so it almost went out of business. Later, it was Yuehong who turned her heart sideways and used Jiangxia's name to publicize, which brought the business back to life, and there was a lot less money to be spent.

Everyone has their own life, how could Jiang Xia guess that the original servant Zhao Yougua would marry the red card of Qunfang Pavilion.

Yuehong looked at Jiang Xia and sighed: "I really didn't expect it, Jiang Xia was just a small servant of Qunfang Pavilion at the beginning, and then you actually became the boss of Qunfang Pavilion, and then you were admitted to the top prize, and the official is getting bigger and bigger day by day." Now that you have become a minister, they can say that you are no different from the emperor. ”

As soon as Yuehong said this, Jiang Xia's expression suddenly changed greatly, and he felt that he said to Yuehong: "Sister Yuehong, don't say anything like this in the future." The emperor is the emperor, no matter how big my official is, he is just a courtier, and he can't be compared with the emperor. ”

"Oooh oh...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm ......," Yuehong said nervously.

Jiang Xia shook his head, then picked up the wine glass in front of him and pushed it to Zhao Yougua and Yuehong and said, "I live in Xiaoyao Villa now, if you have anything in the future, you can go to me, I will definitely help if you can." ”

Jiang Xia said this, I don't know how many civil and military officials in the court want to hear him say this to himself. Zhao Yougua and Yuehong both excitedly picked up their wine glasses and touched Jiang Xia.

After drinking, Jiang Xia put down his wine glass and said, "This meal is almost finished, I just rushed back to Jingshi from outside, and I still have a lot of things to do, so I will leave today." ”

"Good. Zhao Yougua got up and said to Jiang Xia: "Brother Jiang, if you have time in the future, you will often come to sit." ”

Jiang Xia nodded and glanced back at the six people who had already put their chopsticks down.

Seeing Jiang Xia get up, the six of them also stood up one by one, and they all hugged their fists and wrote about Zhao Yougua and Yuehong's hospitality.

walked to the hall, the hall was already crowded with scholars, and it seemed that they were all waiting for Jiang Xia to come out, hoping to see his demeanor.

Seeing Jiang Xia, someone whispered, "Master Taifu has come out." ”

All the scholars saluted Jiang Xia and said, "See Master Taifu." ”

Jiang Xia nodded to them and said, "You don't have to be polite. ”

He thought about it, turned around and said to Yuehong: "Sister Yuehong, give me the four treasures of the study." ”

"Okay, right away, you wait a minute......" Yuehong was actually thinking about how to find Jiang Xia to leave a pair of ink treasures all the way, and now that Jiang Xia proposed it herself, she was overjoyed.

The four treasures of the study room came, Jiang Xia found a table in the hall and spread out the rice paper, and then took up the pen and wrote: "I really lived here, and the boss is still my friend." After writing, Jiang Xia wrote down his name, and finally took out his private seal from the package and stamped it on the paper.

The scholars originally thought that Jiang Xia was going to write some great poems, but they didn't expect to write such a straightforward and simple sentence.

But I'm afraid that for Zhao Yougua and Yuehong, this sentence is the most practical. With this sentence, who else in the entire Jingshi would dare to bully their husband and wife?

After Jiang Xia finished writing, he hugged his fists at Zhao Yougua and Yuehong and said, "Farewell." Then he left Zhao Yougua's inn.

By the time I got back to Escape, it was already noon. After Jiang Xia reported his safety to several ladies one by one, he immediately changed into court clothes and entered the palace non-stop.

In the Qianqing Palace, Yang Yiqingzheng and Yang Tinghe were arguing over the candidate for the chief examiner of this imperial examination, Yang Yiqing preferred Song Wenfeng, and Yang Tinghe proposed Zhong Hanguo.

These two people naturally belong to different camps, representing the different interests of the Jiangxia faction and the Yang Tinghe faction.

As everyone knows, the chief examiner of this imperial examination is very important. Because according to the usual practice, the chief examiner of the imperial examination and the scholar are teachers and students. And the scholars who got the title of the gold list will visit the examiner afterwards, and this is the time for the examiner to recruit talents for his faction.

Although the new scholar has just entered the court, the official position will not be too high, and it will not have much effect. But everyone has to admit that the future belongs to young people.

Sooner or later, these newcomers will become the backbone of the Ming court. At that time, it was very important which camp he belonged to.

Therefore, Yang Yiqing and Yang Tinghe have been arguing about this issue since the early dynasty dispersed, but they have never received any answers.

"Song Wenfeng has been in the Ministry of Rites for five years, why can't he be the chief examiner? If my memory is correct, Zhong Hanguo seems to be a member of the Ministry of Officials before, right?"

It is precisely because Zhong Hanguo served in the Ministry of Officials in the past, so he knows better what kind of talent the imperial court needs, and it is very suitable for him to be the chief examiner. ”

"Bang!" The door of the Qianqing Palace was suddenly pushed open, and Jiang Xia shook the hem of the court robe and walked into the Qianqing Palace. Zhu Zaijiang, who was sitting on the dragon chair reading a book, looked up and saw Jiang Xia, immediately threw the book away, and excitedly shouted, "Taifu, you are back." ”

Jiang Xia squatted down and spread his arms, allowing Zhu Zaijiang to pounce into his arms.

Jiang Xia doted on Zhu Zaijiang, stung Zhu Zaijiang's little face with the beard on his chin, and asked, "Tell Taifu, did Taifu study hard in these days when Taifu was not there?"

"Yes, I have learned all the four books and five classics, and Mrs. Li also said that I am very hard-working and talented. Zhu Zaijiang said.

Jiang Xia smiled, reached out and pinched Zhu Zaijiang's little nose and said, "Look at what you can." ”

After speaking, Jiang Xia walked up to Li Dongyang with Zhu Zaijiang in his arms and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Master." ”

Li Dongyang stroked his chin slightly and said, "It's good to come back safely." ”

Jiang Xia nodded, turned around and glanced at the servants in the Qianqing Palace. The two chamberlains immediately understood and hurriedly brought a chair to Jiang Xia.

Jiang Xia hugged Zhu Zaijiang and sat down, and then asked, "What are you discussing now?"

"To discuss who should be the chief examiner of this imperial examination, I propose that Song Wenfeng and Lord Yang propose Zhong Hanguo, but there is no result yet. Yang Yiqing said.

It could be heard from his tone that Jiang Xia was back, and he was obviously much more relaxed.

Jiang Xia nodded after hearing this, and said, "Then Song Wenfeng, what does Lord Shoufu think?" After speaking, Jiang Xia looked at Yang Tinghe.

Yang Tinghe frowned. Jiang Xia decided this matter so lightly, which was equivalent to not putting him in the eyes at all. Yang Tinghe naturally wouldn't tolerate such a thing, he opened his mouth and was about to speak. Jiang Xia said leisurely: "Don't be too aggressive, some people have eaten enough during the time I left. If I come back and want to continue eating, I'm afraid I'll let him feel what it's like to eat. ”

Jiang Xia's words meant something, and everyone present could hear what he meant. Yang Ting and Tie Qing looked at Jiang Xia with a blushing face, and after thinking for a while, they nodded and said, "As Lord Taifu said, the position of chief examiner will be handed over to Song Wenfeng." ”

"Thank you, Lord Yang. Jiang Xia looked at Yang Tinghe and said with a slight smile.

Yang Yiqing glanced at Jiang Xia and shook his head with a smile. The matter that has been discussed and unresolved, I didn't expect Jiang Xia to have a result as soon as he appeared. Something like "will give him a good feel for what it's like to eat." "This kind of almost straightforward threat, I'm afraid that only Jiang Xia can really say it in front of the five ministers without scruples.

Now that the matter of the main examination has been decided, there is nothing more to mention.

Wang Qiong looked at Jiang Xia and asked, "Master Taifu, you have returned safely, haven't you already signed a friendship covenant with the Tatars?"

Jiang Xia nodded and said, "That's right, I have signed a permanent friendship alliance with the Tatar Khan, and the two sides will be brotherly states from now on."

As a condition, I will open border markets between Daning and Tatar in order to promote friendly relations between Daming and Tatar. ”

"Open border markets to each other?" Yang Tinghe frowned slightly, and said: "It's not impossible to open border markets to each other here, but it's extremely dangerous. In the past, the border markets of the border passes were often plundered by the Tatars. So we agreed to open a border market with the Tatars, which is not easy to find. ”

Jiang Xia glanced at Yang Tinghe, smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I will take full control of this matter, and I will find the people who go to Daning myself." ”

"Okay. Yang Tinghe nodded.

In fact, how did he know that the result that Jiang Xia wanted to see the most was that Yang Tinghe would not mix, how much benefit the commodity trading market in Daning would eventually produce, Jiang Xia did not dare to assert it now, but he knew that it was a very large amount anyway.

After talking about the signing of the covenant with the Tatars, that is basically the end of today's parliament. Yang Tinghe just stood up and was about to announce the end, but Jiang Xia leisurely took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and said, "Lord Yang, don't worry, I still have something to do." ”

Yang Tinghe sat back in his seat, looked at Jiang Xia and asked, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Xia unfolded the paper and began to read: "Xiahou Wu, the chief soldier of Liaodong Town, the general soldier of Xiningwei, the general soldier of Jizhou Town, the Fuzhou Division, and the ...... of Guyuan Town."

Jiang Xia read them one after another, and read more than forty names.

This list was handed to him by Geng Zhongqiu when he first returned to Xiaoyao Villa, and it was all about the transfer of officials from all over the Ming Dynasty since he left.

This nine-border town is the location of the Ming frontier, so frequent, large-scale transfer of important generals, has always been rare.

What Yang Tinghe wanted to do, Jiang Xia naturally knew very well. Holding the list in his hand, he looked at Yang Tinghe and said, "Lord Yang, may I ask what is the purpose of your actions since I left the Jingshi?"

If Yang Tinghe were a ruffian, he would definitely spit on Jiang Xia at this time. When you asked for the position of chief examiner of the imperial examination just now, didn't you acquiesce in these things in your words, and now that the post of chief examiner has been given to you, what do you mean by turning these things out?

Yang Ting and Tie blushed, and said angrily: "This is just a normal transfer of the military department. ”

"Normal transfer?" Jiang Xia smiled slightly, his face suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "What kind of bullshit normal transfer, isn't it just that you are in charge of military power."

What do you mean by this? Lao Tzu left the capital and went to Tatar, risking his life and not coming back to the Tatar steppe, to negotiate with the Tatar Khan. As a result, you took advantage of my departure to make these little moves behind my back?

What do you mean? No, no, no...... I should ask you guys, what are you guys doing?"

"Jiang Xia, pay attention to what you say!" Wang Qiong couldn't help but say.

"Watch out for your mom. Jiang Xia threw the piece of paper directly on Wang Qiong's face and said, "You are the secretary of the military department, don't you know what the consequences of the transfer of these people will be?

If you want to fight for power and see what the situation is right now, you just don't care about the tail, and now you tell me, what is really going to happen at the border gate, which of you will take this responsibility?"

"Mrs. Jiang. Xia Yuanming, who had not spoken, suddenly called Jiang Xia, "Now that the wood is in the boat, it won't help to talk about it anymore." If you have a good proposal, just say it, and we will discuss it. Of the six people here, you are the youngest, so I am afraid that it is a little inappropriate to speak like this. ”

If it was an ordinary person who said this, Jiang Xia Da Spat Xingzi immediately flew over.

But Xia Yuanming is Xia Fengxiao's grandfather, and Jiang Xia is not good at ignoring brotherhood and talking nonsense to him. Jiang Xia took a deep breath and said, "What Lord Xia taught me is that I lost my words. ”

After speaking, Jiang Xia glanced at Yang Tinghe and Wang Qiong, and said, "I have decided to open a 'martial arts hall' in Beijing to cultivate military talents for the Ming Dynasty." ”

Damn! You lose your temper and scold people for a long time, that's the real purpose, right?

Wang Qiong and Yang Tinghe both wanted to scold Jiang Xia back, but just now Jiang Xia followed Xia Yuanming's slope down a low stake and admitted that he had lost his words, and at this moment, Wang Qiong and the others couldn't hold on to what Jiang Xia had just done.

After all...... Aren't they quality people?

Yang Tinghe stroked the beard on his chin and said, "This matter is too wide-ranging, I'm afraid it needs to be considered in the long run." ”rg
