"Why hasn't there been more or less grain harvested this year than last year?" The little emperor felt a little ridiculous: "The war is no longer fought, everyone can go home and plough the fields, how can this number still be this number?" Don't let someone fill their pockets. ”

As soon as the idea of the little emperor came to mind, he remembered that Shen Hong and his brother had once checked the household and found out many silverfish from all over the country, and they were widely praised for a while, so they also wanted to do this, so they immediately tossed around in the court in a serious way, so that the government and the opposition knew that he, the little emperor, was not easy to fool.

After Jingyang returned to Shangjing, he did not leave in a hurry, but settled in the princess's mansion, and after resting for a day, he went to the Shen mansion to visit Lin Piao.

Lin Piao was surprised that Jingyang's character would be willing to come to see him, instead of beckoning him to meet him.

Knowing that Jingyang came to the door, Lin Piao hurriedly asked people to prepare the things, fortunately, the gifts and these things were also prepared in advance, and now they will not be too busy to heal themselves.

Lin Piao went out of the courtyard to greet people, and after walking out for a while, he saw a familiar figure's face, Lin Piao took a closer look, and saw that Jingyang had gone to the fiefdom During this time, her appearance has also matured a lot, and she is no longer as arrogant as when she was in Beijing before, and her face is full of words that it is not good to be impatient.

Today she wore a plain dress and robe, and the beads on her body were pearls and white jade, and she mourned her brother, although she was dressed plainly, but there was also another bright color on her, which was not to be seen.

Lin Piao walked up: "I've seen the eldest princess of Zhenguo." ”

Jingyang held him up and didn't let him bow down: "It's too much courtesy, you and I meet friends, there is no need to be like this, this palace just came over to see you, and nothing else." ”

Lin Piao nodded: "Eldest princess, please." ”

"Just call me Jingyang."

The two of them went inside, and Jingyang looked at the scenery around the courtyard: "The scenery here is not bad, it is suitable for cultivating the body and mind, and living is not exhausting." ”

Lin Piao nodded: "That's right, the land with many trees and flowers is much more pleasant." ”

As the two walked, Jingyang was full of praise when he talked about his invention: "I heard that you have made □□, chain mail, and a heavenly machine bow, and I didn't know that you would have so many things when I was in Beijing, but I underestimated you." ”

Lin Piao smiled: "It's not that I did it, but I have some ideas and ask others to make it." ”

"If you don't come up with it, no one else will be able to do it in their lifetime."

When the two of them walked to the gate of the courtyard, Lin Piao did not dare to lead her to the courtyard where he and Shen Hong lived, so he took her to the Rose Courtyard.

As soon as they sat down, tea and pastries were brought up, and Jingyang looked at the things on the table, and his expression was much softer: "I'm outside, so I can't eat this kind of pastry you made, and I don't want anything else, but this birthday cake, sometimes I always think of it." ”

Lin Piao was surprised: "It turns out that if you like it, then you should have said earlier, when you go to the fiefdom, you should give you this recipe, so that you can eat it often, if you want to leave Beijing this time, remember to talk to me, and I will write the recipe for you to bring it." ”

Jingyang laughed when he heard him look so attentive: "You have a heart and remember me so much." ”

The two were already sitting close to each other, and Jing Yang was happy in his heart, so he came closer, reached over and held Lin Piao's hand.

Lin Piao let her hold it, if it wasn't for the fact that she was already with Shen Hong, it would still be a little nervous to be suddenly held by a big beauty, but now Lin Piao is immune to most of the physical contact except Shen Hong.

"I was in a fiefdom and didn't have many friends, and sometimes I would think of you, and when I heard the news that you were in Beijing, and what you did, but you were in the limelight, you never wrote to me."

Lin Piao was stunned for a moment, he thought that Jingyang never wrote to himself, he should be too lazy to take care of himself, but he didn't expect that the other party was actually waiting for him to write a letter.

"I'm afraid of disturbing you, I heard that the eldest princess exchanged letters with other close friends, but I just thought that the eldest princess had known her for a short time, and she had nothing to talk about."

Jingyang said lightly: "They wrote it to me first, and I didn't want to ignore it, and asked me how the scenery was and what it was like outside, so I asked the maids around me to write some customs and customs to them." ”

Very few people he knew in Shangjing could talk to him, especially because of her identity, most of the people around him were afraid of her power, or just wanted to please her.

Lin Piao first interacted with Jingyang for such a period of time, and he was in contact with Jingyang with the heart of appreciating the appearance and opening up customers, and the positioning of the relationship between the two was plastic friendship.

As a result, I didn't expect Jingyang to attach great importance to the relationship between the two.

However, it is not excluded that it is because of his current achievements that he has an extra sense of appreciation.

When the two got together, Lin Piao sent the things he had prepared to the people around him, which were gifts, introductions, and eating and drinking, and arranged this meeting clearly.

Lin Piao had a hint of vigilance against Jingyang, when Jingyang obviously wanted to win over Shen Hong at first, although he gave up this move later, he also had obvious appreciation for Shen Hong, and now Shen Hong is still not married to the outside world, the more Jingyang shows goodwill, the more Lin Piao thinks about it.

Are you trying to win him over?

Or is it still interesting to Shen Hong?

Lin Piao didn't know, at least the atmosphere between the two of them was happy at the moment.

Jingyang looked at Lin Piao, when he first left Beijing, Lin Piao was just a businessman, the family of an official, although Shen Hong at that time everyone looked down on him, but as long as he had not reached that position, it was not such a thing, although Lin Piao was beautiful, but they were all things that looked very empty.

Today, unlike in the past, Shen Hong and Lin Piao are no longer ordinary people, Shen Hong sits in the position of the head of the household department, and at a young age he has become a "trusted minister", and he has an extraordinary influence in the world and among the courtiers.

And Lin Piao, as Shen Hong's sister-in-law, is actually Shen Hong's wife, he came up with such things as the Tianji Bow and □□, and now that the world is peaceful, the world has returned to the heart, and half of the heart has returned to the Shen Mansion, which makes people not admire.

The two chatted for a while, and when they walked into the courtyard, Lin Piao pointed to the flowers and plants under the porch, and said with a smile: "It was originally moved from your house, and now it is growing very well, and Juan'er and Xiaoyue also like it, and thank you very much for your kindness." ”

Jingyang smiled and didn't speak.

Lin Piao's interest in seeing Jingyang was not high, it was estimated that he only came to see him, rushed back after a tiring journey, and stayed in the deserted place of the imperial tomb for three days, and it was estimated that he was also tired.

Jingyang did not refuse, so he left with the people around him first.

Lin Piao sent people to the door, and watched Jingyang's figure leave, and his heart was a little heavy.

At night, when Shen Hong came back, the two of them washed up and lay on the bed, and when it was not too late, Lin Piao couldn't help but want to talk about it.

"Jingyang is here today, we have a conversation, do you know when she plans to leave Shangjing?"

Shen Hong shook his head: "The eldest princess has not returned to Beijing for a long time, and she will not leave until she stays for a while, and she has not talked about returning to the fiefdom for the time being. ”

"I always feel a little uneasy in my heart, now there are no more people in Beijing that she is familiar with, she has been idle for a long time to come to me, Chu Yu is no more, she has been in the fiefdom for so long, obviously life is good, and she is preventing floods on the spot and comforting the people, the love of the officials and the people should have been born, and it stands to reason that she will be more comfortable in the fiefdom."

Lin Piao had a thought in his heart, he was afraid that she had other purposes to stay in Shangjing, and if she had nothing to do with Chu Yu, it would be fine, and then he would help Chu Yu ascend the throne, and he was worried that the relationship between the two was too good, and Jingyang's stay in Shangjing would become a disaster.

In this way, in the end, whether it was for Shen Hong or Jingyang, the bad result was something that Lin Piao did not want to see.

When Shen Hong heard him say this, he guessed the worry in his heart, and slightly sideways hugged Lin Piao tighter, pressing him tightly on his chest, Lin Piao turned his head sideways, leaning more closely on his chest, and could hear his steady and powerful heartbeat, and the slight vibration that came from it reached his skin.

"Piao'er, the return of the eldest princess, no matter what plans she has, it is not a big deal, as long as there is no mistake in the direction, even if she is dissatisfied, she should know that things are difficult to be perfect."

Lin Piao nodded, understanding what he meant, no matter what Jingyang wanted to do, as long as they dealt with it properly, there would be no problems, even if there was a small mistake, as long as Jingyang was not caught with a big problem, Jingyang couldn't do anything.

Lin Piao sighed, everything was fine, but as soon as Jingyang came, now he inexplicably felt like a thief, for fear of being caught by her.

When Shen Hong heard him talk, he comforted him a few words, and Lin Piao stopped worrying about this matter, but instead asked about the little emperor: "Isn't he trying to investigate the corruption of grain taxes recently?" It's only been a day or two since things started, but you should have some ideas, right? ”

Shen Hong smiled: "Your Majesty wants to do it, but this matter is really difficult, the ministers helped him to take the throne, his foundation is not stable, so he is anxious to establish power, and the family is not happy." ”

Lin Piao was silent for a moment, and mourned for the little emperor for three minutes.

"Things have just begun, Your Majesty was quite firm at the beginning, and now he is panicking, especially His Majesty and his mother clan found out that something was wrong, so they were anxious to dissuade Your Majesty from doing so, Your Majesty was told by the mother clan, and now there is some panic, busy trying to appease the family, but he is afraid that he will really bow his head, and when the time comes, he will lose face, and he will not be majestic in front of the family, and things have become a dilemma."

Lin Piao was shocked, it was only two days, and the little emperor died before he left the school, and he was already scared to go home to find his mother.

"Then he won't have no way to stand up, even if he is unwilling in his heart, he can't subdue these people, and in the end he won't be able to become a big weapon."

When the emperor was first established, because the candidates were too young to talk about any ability to cultivate, they chose the oldest, but at the age of three, seeing that he was old, the emperor's current reaction estimated that the courtiers were quite disappointed with him, and they should have been watching the performance of the other seven kings and the two little princes.

Shen Hong said: "Now Your Majesty can't care about so much, Your Majesty's mother clan just wants to find a suitable way to get out, and not to continue to be involved." ”

Now it is not a matter of food, it is His Majesty and his mother's family who want to balance the various forces in the family court, but the little emperor has not learned his father's ruthlessness, nor has he learned his second brother's disguise, he belongs to the battlefield with his ass closed, and his eyes cannot see the situation clearly, and he is beaten very down.

After the two chatted, they fell asleep, and Lin Piao waited to see how the little emperor would solve this matter.

The little emperor didn't learn anything else, but he was a brick to Shen Hong, and he quickly threw this matter to Shen Hong and let Shen Hong deal with it.

Of course, it can't be dealt with in vain, Shen Hong had postponed saying that he would have to wait for the affairs of the household department to be sorted out before he could serve as the first assistant, so the emperor said that he would let him be the first assistant now, and then let him be able to stand in front of him justifiably.

The little emperor's mother's family deliberately made Shen Hong a barrier between them and the family, and the family naturally felt the intention of the little emperor's mother's family, and their reaction to this was basically laughed at.

Shen Hong is a person who has Daning in his heart and the people, but he has a lot of means, and his heart is not soft at all, and he wants to use him as a barrier, anyway, the family has fought with him many times, and now they can live in peace, Shen Hong is gentle, and he will not make things too difficult for them, and in the end it will only be the little emperor's family who will be excluded from the situation.

The little emperor and his family did not seem to realize that this decision was very short-sighted, it was a bad move, and they did not have the ability to make this move alive in the future.

But they didn't notice this, but they just saw that now that Shen Hong had settled the family and everything was born in peace, there were no more overt and secret troubles, and they felt that this move was the right one.

In this battle, the family was unscathed, Shen Hong was awarded the position of first assistant, and the little emperor and his family were awarded the "Outsider's Medal".

Shen Hong looked at it coldly and felt ridiculous.

Now that His Majesty is incompetent, and knows that everything is difficult in this position, he should retreat bravely, or be humble and humble, and his heels have not yet stood firm, so he wants to become a true emperor, but the little emperor is young but greedy, and the little emperor's mother's family is old enough, but unfortunately one is more stupid than the other, and there are no powerful characters in the family.

Coming out of the council courtyard at noon, Shen Hong happened to bump into Ergou, and the two walked a long way together.

Ergou smiled and said: "Congratulations, now it is the first assistant, and when the holy decree arrives at the mansion and the official seal is delivered to the hand, it will be the first assistant who is sure of the plan." ”

Shen Hong smiled lightly and nodded: "If it continues to be consumed, Bai Ruo should come back first." ”

Hearing him say this, Ergou laughed for a while: "I think the same way in my heart, it seems that we want to go somewhere, that old guy is a troublesome person, if you want him to come back and become the first assistant, it will be a troublesome thing, but I don't think it's possible, the little emperor and Bai Ruoxian have no friendship, and they are willing to let him come back is considered to respect him." ”

After all, Bai Ruoxian's foundation has been uprooted, unlike other officials, who go home to worry about it, and the court's relatives Taishan give him a guard, so he doesn't worry about any problems, and he will come back smoothly after three years.

Shen Hong smiled lightly: "After all, he recommended me to the cabinet, and he is also my benefactor." ”

Ergou smiled: "It's the same." ”

After a while, Ergou said: "I used to say that I was busy, but now I know what it means to be busy, and it really means that my feet don't touch the ground, and the little emperor has a lot of things to do all day, and he also wants to see the east and the west, and he pokes a bunch of Louzi, and finally asks his mother's family to think of some lame methods, maybe they still think they are very smart, and every time they can let them get by." ”

It's just that everyone turns a blind eye .

Now the whole Daning is tied to them, and sometimes the family can't take care of it.

"Shen Hong, I don't have to worry about it before I get married, you still have to pay attention, if you want to live so busy, my sister-in-law should be unhappy, it's just the beginning now, he won't talk about you, but he will say it later."

After all, Ergou is a child who grew up with Lin Piao, he knows what Lin Piao likes and values, what Lin Piao cares about is life, and it is a family that is happy and happy, although there is no previous crisis, but it is difficult to meet like this, and the sister-in-law must be unhappy in her heart.

Ergou said: "In two days, we will rest, and when the time comes, we will push things off and arrange for a while, just so that we can get together as a family." ”

Shen Hong nodded: "Piao'er must be very happy to get together like this." ”

Chapter 215

Lin Piao was very surprised when he heard the news in the mansion, although he had long known that Shen Hong belonged to the first assistant of the internal designation and should be able to take the position soon, but he did not expect that he would be promoted so suddenly.

Shen Hong's prestige is very high now, and the little emperor's mother clan also wants to hold Shen Hong, so that Shen Hong can help them do more things, and the burden on their shoulders will be heavier, but it may not be a good thing.

It's just that it's expected to get busier in the future.

Lin Piao sighed, feeling that this day is going to be unbearable, working in Beijing is no better than other places, people have to move around, even if it is a day of rest, it is common for the family to go out and get together.

Qiu Yu heard Lin Piao sigh and looked at Lin Piao's face: "Madam, the adult has been promoted, and now he has become the first assistant, there has never been such a young first assistant in the past, but we adults are rare powerful people in the world, why is the lady still sighing." ”

Lin Piao shook his head: "This is indeed a good thing, Shen Hong can be regarded as getting what he wants, he has always wanted to do more things for Daning, but he is humble and always unable to do his strength, and now he is in this position is what he deserves, but he is busy as an official, so he is getting more and more busy." ”

Lin Piao felt that he now had a tendency to be widowed, especially after the change of emperor, Shen Hong needed to be busy with a lot of things, often two or three days before he could see each other during the day, his work in the foundry was also completed, the production of the Heavenly Machine Bow and □□ was also on the right track, there was nothing he needed to watch and give advice, the only thing at the moment was to work with Fang Ming on road construction planning, this matter was handed over to professionals as soon as Shen Hong took the position and successfully handed over to the professionals, and there would be fewer places to worry about.

Lin Piao is now mixing too well, and BGM echoes in his body: how invincible is, how lonely ~~~~~~~ is

Xiaoyue and Juan'er are keen to go to work, Da Zhuang and Ergou fall in love with their careers, and only Lin Piao, a salted fishist, lies in his yard and begins to feel lonely.

Seeing him like this, Qiu Yu smiled and said, "Madame wants to go out to play?" It seems that I haven't been out much for almost half a year, although I often walk around the yard and the scenery in the yard is good, but I am often stuffy, no wonder I am in a bad mood. ”
