Fu Song

Chapter 14 Promise

Chapter 14 Promise
When Jiang Yingxue came in through the side door with a plate of melons and fruits, she saw Xiao Cheng staring at her intently.

The weather was already hot, and it was in the inner courtyard of her own house. Jiang Yingxue did not shy away from Xiao Cheng, so she naturally dressed very cool all over her body.

With Jiang Yingxue's proud figure, it is no wonder that Xiao Cheng's eyes were frozen and unable to move away.

Xiao Cheng's unbridled gaze wandered over himself, and Jiang Yingxue became a little shy, her face flushed, she walked over with a light lotus step, put the fruit plate on the small table, and said, "Erlang sees what the slave family does like this? I don't know that Erlang came here, and he didn't even have time to dress up, isn't he ugly?"

"If Yingxue is ugly, then there will be no beautiful women in this world." Xiao Cheng shook his head and said, "Even those in the palace can't compare to you."

Jiang Yingxue smiled: "Erlang is joking again, those in the palace are all golden branches and jade leaves, the emperor's nobleman, what am I?"

"Golden branches and jade leaves, the emperor's nobles are good, but no one said that they will be beautiful!" Xiao Cheng disagreed: "Even if it is Princess Wanping who has been trumpeted by those shameless literati like a fairy, in my opinion, It's just a beautiful appearance, it's incomparable to you."

Hearing Xiao Cheng say that one of the most noble women in the world is not as good as him, Jiang Yingxue was full of joy, took a grape from the fruit bowl, carefully peeled off the outer skin, and was about to put it in the small plate. However, he found that Xiao Cheng leaned forward and opened his mouth.

After being stunned for a while, but not knowing whether to laugh or cry, two slender fingers picked up the grapes and fed them into Xiao Cheng's mouth.

"Erlang, let's have lunch here today. I'll cook some dishes for Erlang later. Would you like to drink some wine? Didn't Erlang say that the master gave you three days off?" Jiang Yingxue was peeling the grapes. asked cautiously.

Her favorite thing is to be alone with Xiao Cheng, but Xiao Cheng is always in a hurry, and it seems that there is always something to do.

"Row!"

Hearing Xiao Cheng's affirmative reply, Jiang Yingxue was instantly overjoyed.

"Everyone knows that Jiang Yingxue, the storekeeper of Tianxiang Pavilion, is a top-notch expert in making incense, but he doesn't know that your cooking skills are also top-notch, and you don't know who will have the blessing to marry you in the future. To Baoluo?" Xiao Cheng said with a smile.

Jiang Yingxue's face suddenly collapsed, and her face that was flying red suddenly turned white again. After a long while, she lowered her head and said, "The slave family has sworn that I will never marry anyone in my life, so I will marry Tianxiang. Court."

Seeing the other party biting Yin Hong's lips lightly, but his little face turned pale again, Xiao Cheng realized that his joke seemed to have gone too far, and it obviously hit the other party.

Staring at the look of the other party's grievance, Zhen's head drooped slightly, Wu Si brushed his face, the water in his eyes flowed, and it seemed that tears were about to flow out in the next moment, and his heart suddenly felt distressed.

Beauty and trouble, the ancients honestly did not deceive me!

With a sigh in his heart, Xiao Cheng stretched out his hand and gently held the other side's soft and boneless Rou Yi.

Feeling that the other party's body seemed to vibrate slightly, Xiao Cheng said softly: "I was wrong. Yingxue, I understand what you mean, let me think about this matter, what should I do! Don't worry, I can't bear to marry you."

Jiang Yingxue raised her head suddenly, but the expression on her face was both surprised and happy.

This was the first time she had heard such a clear statement from Xiao Cheng's mouth.In the past, she was always unable to figure out what Xiao Cheng was thinking, and what kind of heart did she have for her?
Now, she finally dropped a heart that had been hanging for a long time back into her stomach.

But she is the big shopkeeper of Tianxiang Pavilion after all. In the past few years, under Xiao Cheng's efforts, she has turned into a shrewd businessman. Don't look at Xiao Cheng's weak appearance as a young daughter, but outside In front of people, she is a shrewd and capable character.

She naturally understood what Xiao Cheng meant when he said to think about it.

For her, none of these matters.

"The slave family is five years older than Erlang." Jiang Yingxue said softly, "Being from a businessman's background, I don't dare to ask for anything extravagantly. I just want to be by Erlang's side."

Having said this, he looked up at Xiao Cheng and gathered up his courage and said, "Even if you don't enter the door, it's nothing."

Xiao Cheng laughed and said, "That's not possible. If someone knows about the dignified Tianxiang Pavilion's big owner in the future, the big shopkeeper is just someone Xiao's outer room, and those dignitaries who have pursued you will not come to the door with knives. Knock me? Although I think I'm good, I can't stand the crowd! You don't want people to give you the status of the main office, come to give me someone Xiao's office, how much hate do you think I must be? "

Jiang Yingxue let out a snort of laughter: "Those people, one by one, have ghosts in their hearts, why do they care about me, they care about my money. I would rather be Erlang's outer room than go to someone's house. Suffer!"

"Following me, you're also suffering!" Xiao Cheng put Jiang Yingxue's hand to his lips, and gave him a kiss. Seeing that the other party turned into only boiled shrimp, he put it down comfortably.

It's too late, Jiang Yingxue is not that kind of frivolous woman, and even this makes her a little embarrassed.

"Following Erlang is different." Jiang Yingxue said softly: "If it weren't for Erlang, how would the slave family know how big the world is? How do they know how wonderful this world is? The previous Yingxue was just blind and deaf."

"It will be more exciting in the future." Xiao Cheng nodded and smiled: "It will be a long time in Japan, but you allow me to think slowly, in short, I can't wrong you."

After hearing Xiao Cheng's words, Jiang Yingxue smiled and stood up and said, "Erlang rests first, I'll go get Erlang some snacks."

"I must have a few drinks today." Xiao Cheng said, "Let's celebrate!"

Jiang Yingxue went away happily like a gust of wind, Xiao Cheng lay down again, looking at the water curtain outside the window, but his mind ran away long ago.

Compared with the love affairs of these children in his own family, the treacherous clouds in this Bian capital are even more troublesome.

After a long talk with my father last night, I finally got my father's approval and allowed myself to counsel some affairs for him. The biggest advantage of this is that I can better understand the current situation of the court and some secrets that are unknown outside.

Zhou Ting, the envoy of the third division, fell ill a month ago. This old man is sixty years old. When it comes to financial planning, the entire emperor and Song Dynasty is afraid that no one can stand up to him. He has been in charge of the third division for ten years. Moreover, this person is only under the orders of the official family. In the imperial court, he is an out-and-out centrist, and he is also the target of the two major factions in the imperial court.

Originally, if there was no major event, no one could shake the status of this old wealthy minister.

But the problem was with him.

Zhou Cai, an old and not-so-old man, has a new concubine this year, and he is eighteen years old.As a result, he was accidentally overexcited and suffered a stroke. Although his life was safe, his eyes were crooked and his mouth was slanted.

This plan, of course, is impossible to do.

Moreover, this appearance has also become the laughing stock of everyone in Bianjing. Now the entire Zhou family can't raise their heads in Bianjing. Zhou Laocai connected with a letter to resign. As soon as the decree came, I immediately packed up and left Bianjing to go back to my hometown, so as not to be embarrassed here.

This old man died under the peony flower, and he was also romantic as a ghost. He was benevolent.

But his position is really too important, this is the plan in charge of the entire Emperor Song's financial plan!His every move can be said to affect the minds of countless people.

The change of this position also represents the political trend in the entire Bianjing city.

One can imagine how fierce the competition will be.
And Xiao Yu finally won this battle, and he was about to officially become the chief steward of the entire Emperor Song.

And this seems to give a brand new signal, the official family seems to be preparing to be tough on the north.

As we all know, Xiao Yu is the main fighting faction, and he is in charge of the imperial and Song financial affairs. The signal sent by the official family cannot be more obvious.

In this battle, the two kings and one faction have the upper hand.

But Xiao Cheng didn't see it that way.

First, in the past two years, as the second king stabilized the situation above the northern border, he gained great prestige. This time Xiao Yu's victory was probably just a move by the official family to balance the power between the DPRK and China.

Second, the second king's successive victories in the northern border also made the officials see that Bei Liao is not as sharp and invincible as the opponent's iron cavalry advocated by the emperor and the one faction, and it is not easy to maintain the current situation. Maybe it was really moving.But only a little thought.Regarding this official family, Xiao Cheng felt that he had seen through it very well, and he did not have the persevering determination and courage to face difficulties.It belongs to the kind of person who wants to take a share of it when he has a cheap price, and will retreat when he encounters a problem.What he prefers is to mix dissent, let the two factions fight against Maimang, and have a great fight, so he sits firmly on the Diaoyutai.

Thirdly, I am afraid that Zhou Ting, a close official of the official family, suffered too suddenly. Originally, he looked at a very tough guy, but he fell down when he said it. This caught the official family by surprise, and it was difficult to find someone to pick up Zhou. Ting's hand.And Xiao Yu was a financial official who entered the Third Division with Zhou Ting. As Zhou Ting's deputy, he was very familiar with the work of the Third Division.With Xiao Yu taking over, the third division won't make a big mess and can transition smoothly.

It's probably not a good thing for Xiao Yu to sit in this seat now.

Officials don't like the position of the Minister of Finance. The person sitting is the first king or the second king, and it can only be his own person.Whether the father, the third envoy, can be the leader is another question.

Maybe when the official family has slowed down for a while and found a suitable candidate, my father will have to step down.

Now the people of the second king's faction are all beaming and high-spirited, and I'm afraid that time will be empty to rejoice.
