The young master was assassinated in the palace, everyone's heart was heavy, and his face was very embarrassed, Yan Zhengdang even said: "Boss, you don't have to sue me, I also know who is behind the assassination of the young master." It is nothing more than the appearance of the young master, which gave Concubine Li a sense of crisis, but I am afraid that her son's status as the prince will be replaced by the young master of my family. That being the case, the soldiers and horses of Tianbo Mansion have to increase rapidly, otherwise the situation will change, Pukou City is just a projectile land, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses from the two rivers will be surrounded by one another, and my Tianbo Mansion will be in danger. The general manager, from the perspective of a young general, it is not difficult to expand the source of troops, but if you have to set up a name, you can see people's eyes and ears, so that Li Guifei can't get the handle of gossiping about my young master. ”

Seeing that Yan Zheng was so thoughtful, Zhong Lei smiled and said: "I don't want you to be in your twenties, and you are so sophisticated, it is really the blessing of my Tianbo Mansion." Let's talk about it, how do you come up with a clever name?"

Yan Zheng is Yan Shifan's righteous son, this little head is naturally not ordinary, so he said: "Although this method is a bit extreme and a little bad, it can definitely work." The chief governor can send the clever soldiers in the palace to pretend to be robbers and rob passing merchants outside the city and on the water. When the merchant arrives, he will complain and go to the two rivers. Hmph, there is my young master in Pukou City, and in the event of such a major event, it is expected that the officials of Liangjiang will not dare to make their own opinions, and will definitely come to my Tianbo Mansion to discuss. At that time, your chief manager will be very happy, and if you put down this trouble, the officials of Liangjiang will be happy, and the merchants in the past will remember the good of my Tianbo Mansion. Boss, as long as the name is there, this thing will be much easier. Taking advantage of this opportunity, you first expanded the garrison to 8,000 people, saying that you want to protect the little prince, and no one will gossip. Then three barracks were built outside the city, one was to set up a strongman outside the city, one was to patrol and protect merchants along the river, and one was to train new soldiers. I, the soldier who guarded the palace, took the opportunity to expand to 1,500 to 2,000 men. The Mulan army increased to 1,000 men. Hey, by that time, Tianbo Mansion will have at least 20,000 soldiers and horses available. Chief, as long as the training is good, the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Liangjiang may not be the opponent of my Tianbo Mansion. As long as we keep the waterway, who can help us. On the other hand, out of 20,000 soldiers, there must be at least 3,000 horsemen, 5,000 archers, and 2,000 shieldmen. The big butler, as long as there are these 10,000 people and horses, why not be afraid of the soldiers and horses of the two rivers. In my opinion, if there is any movement that is unfavorable to my Tianbo Mansion, as long as we go to sea along the river, then these more than 20,000 soldiers and horses will be expanded to more than 100,000 or 200,000 in a few years. ”

Zhong Lei laughed when he heard this, and clapped his hands to everyone: "Now it seems that Long Live Lord really prefers us and other young masters." Although only 2,500 soldiers and horses were given, several generals and officers were all civil and military talents, and that day Bofu was still afraid. ”

Then he smiled at Yan Zheng and said, "Then this matter will be handed over to you." When the time comes, you will set up soldiers and horses outside the city to suppress strongmen, and you will also lead them. Patrolling the businessmen along the river, hand it over to Feng Guo and Feng Guang brothers. ”

After negotiating the plan to expand the military resources of Tianbo Mansion in the name of Qiao, his mood was also much happier, and he asked Zhao Hu and Wang Bao to rush back to their hometowns tomorrow to pick up their families.

Immediately found Hu Yanxue who was dancing in the back garden, and Tuba was also there, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't practice, I have a mission to hand over to the two of you." ”

Hearing that there was an errand to do, Hu Yanxue and Tuba hurriedly collected the moves and went to the chief manager.

"It's better to be in charge, and when you come back, I'll do it for the messenger, and I've been suffocated for most of the year. ”

Hu Yanxue smiled, and Tuba asked hehehe, "What is the mission?" ”

Zhong Lei smiled and said, "You two are not allowed to grind my mouth." You lama have heard clearly, I know that there is an old lady at home, and I will go home tomorrow to pick you up, and you are not allowed to prevaricate, otherwise you will be driven out of Tianbo Mansion. And you, Huyan brother, if you can't find your children, you won't look for them, so I'll go back to my hometown tomorrow to inquire, maybe I can find any clues. Okay, before you two leave the house tomorrow, you will find the Spring Festival silver, and each of you will take 2,000 taels, and you will be able to do things loosely. ”

After speaking, he didn't care what they thought, turned around and left.

When I returned home, I saw that the wine and food had already been served, the four members of Yingchun's family were talking and laughing, and the three apprentices were waiting with lotus seeds and four maids.

When Nian Bo saw his master coming back, he called out: "Master, wife, master, my master is back." ”

went to bring the washing water, Qian Gui brought a teapot for the master to drink a few sips, and Deng Jia immediately took an urn and poured three bowls of wine.

After Zhong Lei washed his face, he first went over to ask Zhang Qi'er to sit on the upper seat, and then sat down side by side with Yingchun, and saw the three apprentices standing there like wooden stakes, so he pointed to the chair and said, "Sit down, I want to find a scold." ”

Then he said to the lotus seeds: "You also sit down, my family doesn't have so many smelly rules." ”

Yingchun saw that they didn't dare to sit on the lotus seeds, so he smiled and said: "Yahuan is also a human, just sit down, otherwise the chief manager will be angry." ”

The five lotus seeds sat down, but their eyes were already full of tears.

"It's all a family, and we eat whatever we like. ”

Zhong Lei greeted and asked Zhang Qi'er.

"Dad, I heard that you have married the wife of the second room and opened a tea shop, how is this business doing?"

This chapter beggar opened a Huangshan tea shop, and in the downtown area, plus the girl is the master of Tianbo Mansion, the future son-in-law is the chief manager, all the officials, merchants, and people in the city who pay their own money to buy tea, businessmen, and people all go to his shop to buy, this business is naturally surprisingly prosperous, and the three guys have no time to deal with it when they are busy, and the two ladies have to help out, and there are also three or four taels of silver every day.

Three meals a day are delivered from the Jiangnan Restaurant, and the girl is worried about the dress, and there is a second room wife who knows the cold and warmth at night, and this day is very delicious.

The result is that the skin is white, the person is fat, the waist is straight, and the back is not hunched.

Recently, he opened a branch of the Huangshan Tea Shop in Yingtianfu and Yangzhou Mansion, and he had a good relationship outside, and she was still a handsome yellow flower girl.

"Well, I've already earned a few thousand taels of silver. ”

Zhang Qi'er happily responded, and Yingchun was busy muttering in Zhong Lei's ear for a while, only to hear Zhong Lei smile and say, "This is good." It's just, what's the name of it in the future?"

Yingchun smiled: "It's okay, I talked to her, and she also felt weird, even if you called her, she didn't dare to respond." ”

After dinner, Yan Zheng fought for silver helmets and silver armor, rode horses and carried guns, and took four hundred energetic soldiers out of Tianbo Mansion.

But at this time, the city is already 10,000 lamps under the people surging, many street corners have also set up a stage, under the street whistle has seen more than 100 groups of colorful lions, many shops are still wearing red hanging colors, some people are adding oil to the sky lanterns, colorful ceremonial flowers compete in the night, the main streets in the city are already crowded with people, Liangjiang officials and local rich and foreign officials all gathered on the wharf of Yue Xiaoxuan waiting.

"General Yan. ”

Yan Zheng heard someone greeting, and hurriedly followed the prestige, and saw that one of the rich people was waving, but it was Yue Xiaoxuan, the richest man in Pukou City, so he asked on horseback, "Is there something wrong?"

Yue Xiaoxuan squeezed to the side of the horse and stretched out his hand to pick up a little girl, seven or eight years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, she was Long Xiao's daughter Jasper, a good jade girl who would be liked by anyone who saw it.

"This is the little niece Jasper, who is noisily asking me when the little prince will come out to patrol the streets, and when will he come here. ”

Hearing that he was asking this, Yan Zheng hurriedly said: "When Ben will return to the house, the little prince will come to patrol the streets and have fun with the people." ”

With that, ride your horse away.

Yue Xiaoxuan said to his niece: "You can rest assured now, the little prince will be here soon." ”

Biyu smiled, blinked her phoenix eyes a few times, and asked, "Uncle, will the little prince play with me?"

Yue Xiaoxuan was asked, and someone on the side said with a smile: "If you are the daughter-in-law of the little prince, the little prince will play with you." ”

Who expected that Biyu really took it seriously, and shouted loudly: "Uncle, then I will be the daughter-in-law of the little prince, and I will be the daughter-in-law of the little prince." ”

These words caused everyone to laugh for a while, and some people even said to Yue Xiaoxuan: "Look at your daughter is so handsome, which makes people happy, she will be a stunner when she grows up, maybe it really makes the little prince look at it." ”

Everyone also said the same, and they were very happy to praise Jasper, and their little faces were happy.

Suddenly, there was jubilation in front, and everyone knew that the little prince was coming, so they were busy quieting down.

Yue Xiaoxuan's heart was thinking about how to tie up the little prince, and his feet involuntarily hugged his niece and squeezed it forward.

Biyu shouted all the way: "I want to be the daughter-in-law of the little prince." I want to be the daughter-in-law of the little prince. ”

The people on both sides of the street were surprised when they heard this.

The horse team of Tianbo Mansion came over slowly, and the people were jubilant again, but Biyu stopped shouting and asked happily: "Uncle, which one is the little prince, you can show it to me." ”

Yue Xiaoxuan had never seen Tianxiao before, so how could he know which one was the little prince, but he smiled at his niece and said with a smile: "Jasper, the little boy in the yellow coat who rode in front of him is the little prince." ”

This really made Yue Xiaoxuan right.

The first four riders are Tian Xiao, Dan Ying, and the Peony sisters.

The horsemen are Zhong Lei, Wang Bao, Lei Long, and Jiao Yi.

Behind are Lei Tianbao, Lei Tianba, Murong Youcheng, Jiao Jiyun, Jiao Jizhong, Jiao Jiwen, Geng Sibei, Gu Xiulan, Wei Qingshuang, Shen Zhongzhu This Tianbo Mansion is ten into two columns, holding blades, silver helmets and silver armor, very powerful.

Then there was Chen Hong with fifty Mulan troops, and fifty soldiers led by Yan Zheng, all dressed in golden helmets and golden armor.

Today's Tianxiao is a little different, wearing a purple embroidered python yellow robe brought from the palace, a red and exquisite jade belt tied around the waist, a piece of chicken blood jade pendant tied to the jade belt, wearing gold thread white soap boots on his feet, and pinching the reins in his left hand, which is very kingly.

Although he is young, he is very temperamental, always smiling on a tall horse, and often raises his right hand to wave to the people on both sides, causing the people along the street to cry and laugh, cheering and upheaving.

Sometimes, he would also ask Zhong Bole to hold the horse's hooves, and said with a smile without losing his majesty: "This prince is favored by his father, and he builds a city here to govern the cities of the two rivers, and he will live up to the emperor's grace. ”
