Traveling through: The down-and-out beauty refuses to be cannon fodder

Chapter 240

Fang Yuanzhi tugged at the hem of his clothes for him, and said: "Didn't the emperor say that in the early court, Marquis Huichang often didn't come, and relied on the old to sell the old.

But if you don't come to the early court, will the power of Huichang Houfu be weakened?

The Marquis of Huichang is not just the power of their family, but a huge power formed by their in-laws, old relatives, and nepotism.

The emperor hastily made enemies with them, fearing that the backlash would be huge.

It is better to take it step by step slowly. "

Zhu Jianshen turned over and pressed on her, and said with a joking smile, "Is this how you take it step by step?"

Fang Yuanzhi grabbed his malicious hand and gave him a coquettish look: "Not today...in two days..."

Zhu Jian buried his face in her neck in despondency, and complained: "I can't do it when I'm here, and I can't do it after half a month. I often can only watch and can't eat. The life is so miserable..."

Yuan Zhi covered her face shyly.

She buried her face in the pillow, lying on the bed, urging: "Go to bed early, you have to get up early tomorrow."

……

Early the next morning, Fang Yuanzhi beat the bed angrily.

She only hated herself for being deceived by his quiet appearance.

Only she knows how much he can let go of him who has completely let go of himself.

He fled in despair.

Fang Yuanzhi asked many times, and he revealed a little embarrassedly: "The imperial concubine is much older,
Fang Yuanzhi felt a little soft-hearted.She shouldn't have been so pressing.

If he insisted on asking how he and Xu Chun got along, how should she ask?

Xu Chun is many years older than her, mature and stable, and always takes care of her more.Unlike Zhu Jianshen, who has a lot of nonsense nowadays, she is not afraid of getting annoyed at all.

Between two lovers with a big age difference, it is inevitable that the older one will take care of the younger one.

And as Zhu Jianshen got older and his control increased, he wanted to take more initiative.

Regarding the memorial to Huichang Hou, Zhu Jianshen still suppressed his temper and did not accept it at all.

Instead, the Marquis of Huichang submitted a memorial requesting his appointment.Zhu Jianshen naturally refused.

In August, Zhu Jianshen appointed Zou Gan, Minister of Rites in Nanjing, as Minister of Rites in Beijing. The Jiangnan faction was extremely stable in the court, occupying three important departments: the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Rites.

The Xu family was hit hard.Xu Pu went on a long-term vacation, but Ding You soon died because of his grandfather.

In September, Zhu Jianshen ordered Sun Zan, the eldest son of the Marquis of Huichang, to be the commander of the Jinyi Guard and to be in charge of the guard.Many courtiers Shangshu objected, saying that Sun Jizong was originally a foreign relative, and he also controlled a large army. Now he is in command of the army and bans brigades.

I almost said that the Sun family can rebel at any time.

Zhu Jianshen won the governance with the way of preservation mentioned by the ministers, and dismissed Sun Zan from the post of Jinyiwei.

Sun Zan was so angry that he went into a rage at home and smashed everything in the house!
He was actually in control of Jin Yiwei, but now, it seems that the emperor is kind to him, but he is actually pushing him to the end!
However, Zhu Jianshen wasn't stupid either. Instead of promoting Sun Zan's position, he promoted Changhou's confidant Zhu Ji and others in Jinyiwei, which was a slap in the face for Tianzao.

And Zhu Ji is also considered capable. There have been many thieves in the capital for many years, and they have repeatedly attempted to suppress them. In February, Zhu Ji and others were suspended from their salaries. In September, they were rewarded for their meritorious service in arresting robbers.

Although Zhu Ji had a good relationship with Huichang Houfu, he was close to Sun Lian.

……

When Fang Yuanzhi heard the news of Xu Xuan's death, it was already the beginning of September when the autumn wind was bleak.

She specially greeted Zhu Jianshen and left the palace early in the morning.

Today is Xu Xuanwei seven.

Fang Yuanzhi went to Xu's house in plain men's clothing.

After wandering around the door of Xu's house for a long time, Fang Yuanzhi went in to pay his respects after no more guests came to pay their respects.

Above the mourning hall, the coffin is parked in the middle, and the family members thank you from the side.

Perhaps it was because they guessed that there would be no more guests. Xu Chun was the only one kneeling in the family's place, dressed in sackcloth and filial piety, with a stubble beard, haggard, listless, and empty-eyed.

Fang Yuanzhi suddenly felt that his nose was sore and unbearable.

After saluting and paying respects to the incense, she went to Xu Chun to take the yellow papers, pulled them into the brazier and burned them one by one, before she finally said, "Uncle Chun, please give me your condolences."

There was an uncontrollable choke in the voice.

Xu Chun just raised his eyelids, glanced at her slowly from top to bottom, then lowered his eyelids, and said weakly, "I'm sorry."

Fang Yuanzhi only felt a heart-wrenching pain.

She had seen various appearances of Xu Chun, but she had never seen him so decadent.

Fang Yuanzhi took a deep breath before resisting the urge to hug him and comfort him.

It's up to his wife to appease him.

After leaving the mourning hall, Fang Yuanzhi asked the servant who led the way: "Can you take me to see Mrs. Gu?"

Mrs. Gu has a lot of contacts with her, and she suddenly lost her husband. She should visit her because of emotion and reason.

Mrs. Gu was bedridden, and Xu Chun's wife, Peng Yun, was serving in front of the bed in plain clothes.

Fang Yuanzhi felt the pulse for Mrs. Gu, and did some acupuncture for her, before he said with a smile: "Second uncle and grandmother, please take good care of your health. When you are filial, the third uncle's child will be yours." to teach."

Tears rolled down Mrs. Gu's eyes, she looked at Yuan Zhi complicatedly, and then at Peng Yun who was standing aside.

Mrs. Gu fell into a deep sleep.

Fang Yuanzhi followed Peng Yun out of the room, and said: "My Jimin Medical Hall has gathered a lot of famous doctors and children, some of them are good at thoracic obstruction, so it's okay to come to ask for a consultation. Take good care of it, and I will send someone over in a while, please take care of the third aunt."

Peng Yun's eyes were swollen, she fixed her eyes on her, and said with a sad smile: "Looking at it this way, you look more like their family's real daughter-in-law. What have I become?"

Fang Yuanzhi bowed his head: "Third aunt, don't misunderstand. Yuan Zhi showed her the illness of the second uncle and grandmother a few years ago, and she was more clear. If you think Yuanzhi is troublesome, please forgive me. The illness cannot be delayed ah!"

Peng Yun wept and laughed so much: "The Xu family in the south of the Yangtze River is dignified, and our Peng family in Jiangxi can't find a capable doctor? Do you want to show your courtesy?"
