The devil is coming

Chapter 358 Uncle Hirano
The eunuch who announced the decree in the palace came, and for a while, the entire Quande Tower was alarmed.
Back then, when Quande Tower was still the property of the Sixth Prince, they had visited the Marquis of Zhenbei and the Marquis of Jingnan, but they had never received His Majesty's imperial edict.
Many people are already speculating,
Could it be that His Majesty is also greedy for the duck from Quande Tower, so he sent his father-in-law here to buy one and take it back to try it?
Ouch, this is incredible. The ducks from Quande Tower will become tributes!
Of course, if Quande Tower was still under the control of the Sixth Prince at this time, he would definitely not waste this opportunity, and would definitely send someone to spread the word "innuendo" and "in order to gain fame".
A duck is really worthless to the powerful people in Yanjing. Just selling the duck will not make any profit. What really makes money is the things attached to the duck.
To put it bluntly, it’s that “face”!
For example, the perfumes created by my brother named Zheng are the real money-attracting tools.
But then again, even back then, few people actually knew whose property the Quande Building belonged to.
The palace guards opened the way, and the father-in-law who announced the decree stomped upstairs. He stood at the top of the stairs and called out in a low voice with a "childish voice" and a sense of flattery:
"Your Highness? Your Highness?"
At this moment, no one in the box next to him dared to promise anything blindly. He couldn't say "Hey" because his head had to be moved today.
The movement below actually caused a reaction from above, and people in several boxes also opened the doors and looked outside.
The same was true for He Chu. He was sitting behind the door, but he opened the door and looked out curiously.
Then retract your head,
Half covering his mouth with his hand,
He whispered to Yan Captou and his sister:
"The father-in-law in this palace has a lot of powder on his face."
Eunuchs like to put on makeup. Because of their congenital disabilities, many eunuchs are not able to do their job well even when they are "putting water on". There will be residue, dripping, etc.
There will inevitably be some irritation in this body;
But you can't smoke the master, you can only use spices to press it. Since spices are also used, the grease and powder will also be included.
The largest powder shop in Yanjing City has a master chef who was released from the palace when he was old and was transferred to another job.
Well, that powder shop is called "Liuhua Lane", and it was once one of the Sixth Prince's properties.
Hearing this, the young lady of the He family covered her mouth and snickered. It was both her and her brother's first time in Beijing, and it was also their first time seeing a eunuch, so they naturally found it strange.
When Yan Catou heard this, he laughed loudly.
"Ouch!"
He Chu was startled. His brother-in-law laughed so loudly, wasn't he seeking death?
He is the father-in-law in the palace. How can he enjoy the fruits of his own life if he offends others?
"Ouch!"
At this moment, another ouch sounded from behind He Chu.
He Chu was so frightened that he stood up straight, as if someone had stabbed his spine with a knife.
This voice, isn’t it that father-in-law!
The young lady of the He family was also startled and looked at the door blankly.
Yan Baotou still sat naturally.
"Oh, Your Highness, Sixth Highness, you are really easy for me to find.
I would like to send my regards to His Highness the Sixth Highness. Your Highness the Sixth Highness is blessed! "
The father-in-law knelt down very respectfully and saluted Yan's head.
"..." He Chu.
My uncle hasn't come to his senses yet.
what?
The young lady of the He family also covered her mouth with a look of disbelief.
"Tsk, what a coincidence, isn't it? Lao Qin, I am worried about what to do with the money for this meal. No, this is the first time I have brought my newly married daughter-in-law back.
You can't be too arrogant, right? You just want to bring her here to have a duck. Lao Qin, if you look at my clothes now, you will know what I have been doing in the past six months. My little salary is not worth it. How can I pay the bills here?
Just in time, you're here.
Come, wife,
Call someone,
Call Uncle Qin. "
Although the young lady of the He family was in a state of uncertainty and was unclear about the situation, she still instinctively followed her husband's words. He asked himself to call someone, and he immediately said:
"Hello Uncle Qin."
"Ouch, ouch, ouch!"
Eunuch Qin immediately screamed three times, kowtowed heavily to the ground towards the young lady of the He family, and then said immediately:
"How can this be done? How can this be done!"
Isn’t His Highness’s woman the princess?
The princess calls her an eunuch uncle, how can she afford it?
"This account..."
Yan Baotou made a long sound.
"Your Highness, look at what you said, it's not just once or twice that you beat the old slave's teeth as a sacrifice. The old slave saved it. This account will be recorded on the old slave's head."
"You are particular about it. What about the meeting ceremony?"
With that said, Yan Captou pointed at his beloved wife.
Is this shout of "uncle" in vain?
Eunuch Qin smiled and reached into his sleeves and touched it. He instinctively wanted to take some silver coins, but subconsciously felt that this was not polite enough. He then took off a small jade pendant from his waist and handed it to the young lady of the He family with both hands:
"My lord, this old slave has some thoughts. Please accept it."
When the young lady of the He family saw Yan Baotou nodding to her, she obediently took the jade pendant and said by the way:
"Thank you Uncle Qin."
"Ouch ouch ouch!"
Eunuch Qin was so frightened that he kowtowed again.
When getting up,
Subconsciously wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Money, these eunuchs who have reached the position of eunuchs who declare decrees are actually not short of money, and they are not short of disciples and grandchildren. What they are short of is respect!
The father-in-laws in the palace often commented privately on the arrogance of several princes, including the eldest prince;
The second prince, also known as the crown prince, is noble;
The third prince is elegant;
The fourth prince is tough;
The fifth prince is harmonious;
The seventh prince is naughty;
As for the Sixth Prince, he often commented like this:
"He, bang!"
The superior should give people what they need and comply with their wishes, only then can they accept their hearts and use them for my own use.
These words were what his father said to his young self when he held her on his knees.
Therefore,
It was only by chance that an outside spy of the Secret Service lurking in the Qian Kingdom suddenly heard the news from the residence of a certain Qian Kingdom minister and sent the secret message.
Therefore,
Only then did Xiao Qi suddenly remember to fly the kite she had given him half a year ago, and then "accidentally" it fell into the water.
They are all small characters, and usually they are not noticeable at all.
crucial moment,
But it can have a real effect.
……
Eunuch Qin stood up and said seriously:
"The Holy Edict!"
Yan Captou immediately stood up and left his seat, kneeling down:
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
The young lady of the He family immediately knelt down, but her mind was still buzzing.
The eldest uncle, He Chu, collapsed directly to the ground. Although he was not kneeling, he was still bowing to the ground, and there was nothing wrong with him.
Eunuch Qin first cupped his hands in the direction of the palace and said:
"Saint Boon."
immediately,
Eunuch Qin looked at Yan Baotou and continued:
"The Holy Spirit has spoken: Come into the palace and see me, you bastard!"
"My son accepts the order!"
Ji Chengjue stood up from the ground and casually patted the dust on his knees.
Then, he stretched out his hand to help his wife stand up.
As for my uncle, he is still in a state of despair, unable to extricate himself.
"Your Highness, the carriage entering the palace has been prepared."
Ji Chengjue pointed at the young lady of the He family beside him.
"Your Majesty means that everyone must go."
Since I was meeting my in-laws, I naturally had to go along.
Ji Chengjue smiled with satisfaction, and Eunuch Qin whispered:
"Your Highness, you have suffered a lot. You have lost a lot of weight."
"No, now, Gu is back."
Alone is back,
I don’t want to leave anymore.
……
inside the carriage,
There were three people sitting there, and He Chu didn't have to drive the car, so they sat inside together.
Ji Chengjue sat in the front seat, He Sisi sat on one side, and He Chu sat on the opposite side.
Along the way, Ji Chengjue didn't speak, and siblings He Sisi and He Chu didn't dare to speak either.
He Sisi looked at her husband from time to time.
My uncle didn't dare to look at it.
It's not that Ji Chengjue is putting on airs, deliberately keeping silent and playing deep, but it's that he will see his father again soon, so he has to make careful calculations in his mind.
The great victory in the Three Jin Land happened to be the time when I was feeling relaxed;
The Qian Kingdom in the south is building its troops and has great ambitions. It has become a real threat to the Yan Kingdom, which has just fought another big battle and consumed a lot of money. This is enough to make my father upset.
When masters compete with each other, what they pay attention to is actually psychology.
I was taught by my father for ten years and abused by my father for ten years.
Emperor Yan, who was extremely majestic in the eyes of others,
In fact, in Ji Chengjue's eyes, there weren't many secrets left.
My father is indeed a hero of the previous generation, but his gaze has always been too high.
That's why I had the opportunity to do something with a little bit of skill under his nose.
Hey,
You can't let ten years of abuse go to waste, right?
But when I really want to stand in front of my father, when my father's eyes fall on me, I want to hide something, want to deceive something, want to be clever, or play something. tricks...
can,
sure,
It's just a bit costly.
The carriage arrived at the gate of the palace. Eunuch Qin showed his badge and was quickly let in.
After the carriage entered the main entrance of the inner palace, Ji Chengjue shook his wrist and got out of the carriage.
In front, standing was Eunuch Wei.
"Your Highness, please come in first. The He family will wait first, and the servants will take care of themselves."
Ji Chengjue nodded and said:
"You are bothered."
"Your Highness is too polite, but I don't dare to act like this."
Ji Chengjue looked back at his wife, smiled and nodded to her. At this moment, he no longer bothered to comfort her pale little face.
Her husband has to do his own thing. If he doesn't do it well, everyone will have to finish it.
After watching his brother-in-law enter the inner door,
He Chucai looked around as if waking up from a dream,
Looking at the deep palace walls and carved beams and painted buildings,
He Chu said to himself subconsciously:
"Dad, you said you wanted your in-laws to see our family's fortune. Even if you sell a hundred pigs a day, you are completely incomparable to others."
Look at the guards standing around,
"Dad, you specifically asked me to bring the butcher's knife with me. You wanted to scare people and see if they dared to treat my sister badly. Your son also wanted to pull out the knife and make gestures, but your son really It can’t be done.”
At last,
He Chu set his sights on his own sister.
At this point, if you still can't guess the identity of "Yan Captou", then He Chu really has something wrong with his brain.
The development of this matter is more like a drama than a drama.
But everything in front of me cannot be faked.
It’s not that I’m greedy for wealth,
It’s not that I want to get any glory,
Just simply standing from the perspective of my brother,
That night, my sister put a hairpin against her neck and forcefully tried to deliver the meat.
He and his father still want to stop him,
If it really stops me,
Wouldn't it be a delay in my sister's great opportunity?
"Dad, the cabbage in our vegetable field was taken away by the pig inexplicably. It was clearly our cabbage who took the initiative to choose a golden pig son-in-law."
"You two, this way please."
Wei Zhonghe made a very polite gesture of invitation.
He Sisi nodded and gave Wei Zhonghe a slight blessing.
He Chu was a little confused and instinctively reached into his sleeve, and then took out a broken piece of silver, which his father taught him before entering Beijing.
It's like when you open a pork stall and see those policemen or people from the master's family coming to buy meat, you always have to think about it.
Wei Zhonghe saw it and waited.
Who would have thought that because He Chu's hands were shaking too much, some copper coins and broken silver actually scattered on the ground.
"what!"
He Chu screamed in fright.
Wei Zhonghe saw this and hurriedly said:
"Thank you, Uncle He, for the reward. What are you still doing? Pick it up."
With that said, Wei Zhonghe bent down and picked up a small piece of broken silver.
Suddenly, the eunuchs behind Wei Zhonghe came over to pick up the money and kept shouting thanks.
He Chu, a man who killed pigs, could only respond with his hands and fists.
"Master He, let's go. I'll treat you to tea and some snacks."
"Thank you sir, oh no, thank you father-in-law."
"Master He, are you too polite? I will teach you some etiquette for meeting His Majesty later..."
"Pfft!"
As soon as I heard that I wanted to see His Majesty,
He Chu was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground.
Dear father,
Your son, I want to see His Majesty!
……
Unlike the hustle and bustle outside, there was silence inside.
Ji Chengjue walked through the path and stopped for a moment when he reached the door of the imperial study room.
Obviously, this place was deliberately kept away from other people, and not even a young eunuch could be seen inside.
However, just as Ji Chengjue walked in to prepare for the arena dedicated to him and his father, he saw a familiar face wearing a purple dragon robe sitting at the bottom.
This is the prince.
And my father is sitting in the upper position.
Both of them were reviewing the memorial.
Seeing this scene, Ji Chengjue didn't have any trouble in his heart. He just felt it was a little funny. This scene really looked like the father and son of the Tian family.
As for why it’s funny,
Ha ha,
You can't feel like crying, right?
When Ji Chengjue came in, the prince raised his head first, with a look of surprise on his face, stood up, left his seat and walked over:
"Sixth brother, you have recovered from your illness, but you are worried about me."
Ji Chengjue immediately took a step back, kowtowed to his father and said:
"My son sees my father."
immediately,
Then he turned around and saluted the prince:
"See Your Royal Highness!"
"Get up quickly, get up quickly, you and I are brothers, how can we be so close to each other?"
When the prince came to help him, Ji Chengjue followed Shan Ruliu and stood up with his help.
In fact, Ji Chengjue didn't really like acting in this kind of drama, because he felt it was a waste of time.
My second brother has also placed people in Nan'an County to keep an eye on him. How can there be any surprise that you are cured?
Brothers and sisters, pretending to be respectful, what’s the point?
It sounds like our father is very humane and likes to see his brothers kissing me.
Emperor Yan raised his head and looked at Ji Chengjue without saying a word.
Ji Chengjue stood facing Emperor Yan, his head half lowered.
He stared at the floor tiles under his feet, the imperial study room, and entered the imperial study room again.
Ji Chengjue also knew in his heart,
to be honest,
Why was he summoned to stand here?
The He family's daughter-in-law was just a pretext, and Eunuch Zhang was just setting up and giving an excuse.
After all, he knew that his father had a cold nature, but he also had an extremely proud heart.
But the real reason why he was summoned was
Without him,
Qianlianger!
An unplanned battle against the barbarians completely defeated the seemingly huge Yan, leaving the soldiers exhausted and the treasury empty.
The mess of Sanjin Land can only be drained of blood now, but no real rewards can be obtained from it.
Dayan seems to be a prosperous country, but in fact it is already strong on the outside and weak on the inside.
What is my goal? Cut it off!
This real opponent must be eliminated.
This is my long-cherished wish,
He wanted to accomplish the tasks of several generations in one fell swoop, leaving a stable empire for future generations and the country of Yan.
But lack of money and food,
It is impossible to continue this battle.
Therefore,
Only then did he think of his own use.
Moreover, since my business was handed over to the Ministry of Household Affairs, its income has been decreasing year by year. I believe I know this.
After working as a head catcher in Nan'an County for half a year, Ji Chengjue has learned first-hand the sentiments of the people. There are no problems in Dayan now, but there are already signs of the war's overdraft of national power.
The most important point is the window period formed after the horse steps on the door.
Although the imperial court was fattened and had enough money and food to fight several wars, there was always a reason for everything to exist.
Although the clans greatly restrict the centralization of power, their role in developing and operating the local economy, culture, and society is actually much better than that of the government.
One is the family's territory, and the other is the public territory. It is self-evident which one is more important.
In addition, the large-scale expropriation of labor has also exhausted the people's strength in many places.
Maybe, from his father's perspective, he is now worried about not having enough money and food to continue his great cause of opening up territories, but from Ji Chengjue's perspective, if he doesn't take measures to control and contain him, even if there is no more war, the national strength of Yan will be It will also start to go backwards.
This is the fundamental reason why my father summoned me!
Xiaoqi is still young and cute, so my father will tease and tease him;
But the other brothers in my family have grown up, and maybe it’s not fun anymore in my father’s eyes.
The deep love between father and son,
Go to hell,
My third brother is still writing poems in the lake pavilion!
No foreshadowing, no narrative,
Emperor Yan’s attitude,
Much more direct than the Prince.
In fact, this is the style Ji Chengjue is accustomed to. If you have something to talk about, who has time to play superficial games with you?
Of course, it is also because my second brother is not as "careless" as my father. After becoming the prince, his words and deeds are even more restricted.
"In Marquis Jingnan's book, there is one thing that mentioned that General Zheng Fan of Fengyuan Shengle was invited to be the commander-in-chief of Xueguang Customs. Cheng Jue, what do you think?"
Look,
As expected of my father,
We were obviously talking about family matters.
As a result, it was a matter of state as soon as it was opened.
This is enough to show that the affection between sons and daughters will always come second in my heart.
Seeing that the prince was talking about business, he returned to his seat and sat upright.
Snow Customs General?
It really is so.
Ji Chengjue didn't feel any surprise at all, because he had already guessed this.
All I can say is that my brother named Zheng is really good at flattering others.
When I first met him, within a few days I was able to convince myself to help him start his business;
When you drain yourself dry,
The man immediately hugged Marquis Jingnan's thigh again,
There was a time during the journey where I had an eye-catching encounter with the Marquis of Zhenbei.
This kind of human ability really makes people speechless.
Back to this matter, the army won the battle. The court will divide a part of this new cake, and at the same time, leave a part for the coach to reward his men. This has been a long-standing practice since ancient times.
But the coach should know what he can say, what he cannot say, what needs to be hinted, and what is taboo.
There are three passes in Shanxi, Nanmen Pass, Zhennanguan and Xueguan. Xueguan is undoubtedly the most important, because Xueguan controls the snowfield and responds to Zhennanguan.
Of course, the imperial court should appoint a general to take charge of such an important place.
Marquis Jingnan directly named Zheng Fan as the commander-in-chief of Snow Customs, which was equivalent to breaking this tacit understanding.
Of course, there is no question of whether Marquis Jingnan is domineering or not. After all, the eunuchs who announced the decree killed two people at the gate of the Marquis's mansion.
"Reporting to my father, I think Zheng Fan can take on this important responsibility!"
Ji Chengjue responded loudly.
The prince on one side had a slight glint in his eyes, because Zheng Fan had a close relationship with his sixth brother, which was something that everyone with a discerning eye knew.
As a prince, military power is actually more like a hot potato to them. You are very hungry and want to eat it, but it is easy to burn yourself.
Emperor Yan looked at his sixth son,
After a brief pause,
He opened his mouth and said:
"I know what Zheng Fan is capable of."
Obviously, Emperor Yan did not deny that Zheng Fan had the ability to guard Xuehaiguan. At the same time, he did have this qualification, because in this battle, he was undoubtedly the first.
For hundreds of years, the Yan people have learned from their wars with the desert barbarians that it is easy to defeat the barbarians, but very difficult to completely injure them.
If Zheng Fan hadn't defended the Snow Customs alone, even if the savages were driven out, there would be no loss to the savages at all, and there would be no peace in the snowfield.
However, such questions and answers seem a bit too monotonous.
But this question and answer covers everything.
Don’t you know about my relationship with Zheng Fan?you know.
But that’s my direct answer: appropriate.
I don’t know that when Marquis Jingnan directly proposed to appoint Zheng Fan as the commander-in-chief of Snow Customs, the court had to hold its nose and admit it no matter how uncomfortable it was. I know;
But you still have to ask me again.
How can I see it?
What should I think?
After using this great achievement, Marquis Jingnan makes a clear request. Can you not satisfy it?Dare the court be dissatisfied?
As for being crowned king,
Are people rare?
All the sons are “gone”,
Even if you are granted a title of king, it will be hereditary and will not be replaced by others, will it be rare?
At first, the Tian family was rare.
But now there is no one in the Rentian family.
Emperor Yan sighed slowly and looked at his son standing below him again.
Ji Chengjue still maintained the posture of finishing his answer.
Father and son of the Tian family, if you really want to say anything about their affection, it’s over.
Maybe other heavenly families have it, but my own family doesn't.
Moreover, when Emperor Yan looked at his son, he seemed to be looking at himself in his youth. However, his son also seemed to know that he looked like me in his youth;
Therefore, both parties were too lazy to be pretentious.
The prince opened his mouth to speak, but he didn't know what to say. In this atmosphere, his identity was too sensitive.
If you do it too much, you will easily become hypocritical;
If you don't do enough, you will easily get the reputation of being disrespectful to your brothers.
at last,
It was Ji Chengjue who spoke first, breaking the brief silence.
In a word,
You must not leave me alone.
In ordinary families, a son can vent his anger on his father, and that's no problem, but his own father can't play like that.
Ji Chengjue knelt down,
He opened his mouth and said:
"Father, I hope to regain the original business."
A smile appeared on Emperor Yan's lips,
immediately,
This smile is fleeting.
Emperor Yan knew,
he,
Guessed it.
If I were in his position, I should be able to guess it.
Emperor Yan didn't like this feeling very much. In fact, he originally liked it, he really liked it. No father doesn't like his son to be like him, unless you, as a father, have failed too much.
Emperor Yan naturally could not be a failure, he was a hero of his generation.
But father and son,
It's like feeling like roundworms in each other's stomachs,
If the relationship between father and son was good, then it would be okay;
That's called a heart-to-heart relationship between father and son.
Now that father and son are strangers to each other, they seem a bit alienated.
According to the established process,
Emperor Yan should have asked, "Can't you bear it?"
Then the cub below,
Give me some more reasons and be nice;
Give yourself a few more words of reprimand and then some more beating;
Then the cub admits his mistake again and gets beaten one by one;
After that, I can give him more money, not only to return the business, but also to entrust him with some of the errands of the household department.
He knew that his son was good at business. The Min family, Concubine Min's mother's family, was once a wealthy businessman in the Yan Dynasty.
At the moment, the situation is really giving him a headache, and he urgently needs someone who knows how to run a business to help him get this tired empire in order.
He needs money and food, he needs national power,
He still wants to, in his lifetime,
Kill it!
He did not dare to leave the rival Qian Guo to his descendants and his successors.
I can't imagine how far Qian Guo will develop if he is given more time.
By the time,
It's really hard to say whether Dayan went south or Qian Guo made another northern expedition.
The most important thing is that the emperor of Qian Kingdom is younger than himself and is good at keeping in good health.
This is my opponent, Ji Runhao,
Before I die,
For Dayan,
Beat him!
But Emperor Yan just didn't want to act and go through this process.
It can be said that father and son are really alike in this respect.
Anyway, there are no outsiders in the imperial study room at this time. Who can show me the acting and the process?
Oh, the only one who can be considered an outsider is the prince.
The prince, who was sitting below and wearing a dragon robe, didn't know that he had become an "outsider".
of course,
The next sentence,
The prince suddenly felt like an outsider.
Earlier, my father asked a question, and my sixth brother answered; then he was silent.
Now the sixth brother asks, father...
Father replied directly with four words:
"Kanfeng Hube."
Ji Chengjue immediately kowtowed and said:
"My son, I will definitely live up to my father's high expectations."
One question and one answer,
Ask and answer again,
It became.
The prince instinctively felt that it was a bit ridiculous.
The first question and answer was decided by Snow Customs General;
The second question and answer showed that he, the sixth younger brother, seemed to have suddenly risen to power again.
The older princes all remember how much their father loved their sixth brother when he was still young.
But at this moment, the prince really felt like an outsider and couldn't get a word in at all.
There is no need to smooth things over by yourself, there is no need to ease the atmosphere by yourself, and there is no need to mediate arguments by yourself. You can't just cough twice and signal your father to listen to your opinion, right?
Guanfeng Hubu means that the prince goes to Hubu to study, and it is also a means of training the prince.
This authority can be large or small, and is very flexible.
after awhile,
Ji Chengjue, who was kneeling on the ground, added:
"Within three years, I will definitely give my Dayan enough money and food!"
Emperor Yan's breath was stagnant.
Ji Chengjue, who was kneeling on the ground, had a smile on his face.
You know I know what you're thinking,
You also know that I know what you are thinking,
But I just tell you on purpose that I know you know what you are thinking,
You feel very uncomfortable, right?
I did it on purpose!
Emperor Yan narrowed his eyes slightly,
He instinctively wanted to suppress his son as usual, which was in line with his usual methods.
In the beginning, every time Zheng Fan advanced to a higher level, he would peel off a layer of his son's skin for beating.
But after so many years of beating myself,
He suddenly realized that there seemed to be nothing left to pull from his son.
What family?
At this time, Ji Chengjue stood up and said to Emperor Yan and then to the Crown Prince:
"My father, my son Meng Lang, has made a private life-long arrangement with a private woman. I hope my father will fulfill it!"
said,
Ji Chengjue knelt down again.
Emperor Yan's breathing stagnated again, and he guessed what he wanted to do again!
To be honest,
This feeling of fighting against myself,
It's really uncomfortable,
It feels like the left hand hits the right hand.
In the past, my son obviously wanted to hide his clumsiness and deliberately pretended to be crazy. He also knew that he was pretending to be crazy and stupid, but today, he stopped pretending.
Ah,
Does this mean that I have to use you now, so I am confident?
The prince smiled at this time and said: "Sixth brother, is it true, she is a woman from the He family?"
Ji Chengjue replied shyly:
"Brother Huang is wise and belongs to the He family."
The prince was stunned for a moment and asked: "Whose family is it?"
"Brother Huang, this is the He family."
"What family?"
"The He family."
The prince then realized that this was the same surname.
"Brother Emperor, the He family is the butchers of Nan'an County."
"butcher?"
There was something wonderful about the prince's expression.
His fiancée is the princess of Zhenbei Hou Mansion;
My eldest brother wants to marry the daughter of the Barbarian King.
My younger brother wants to marry a butcher’s daughter?
For a moment, the prince didn't know what to say and could only look at his father.
Emperor Yan didn't answer in a hurry, he just had a sullen face.
Ji Chengjue said again:
"Father, my father-in-law of the He family, before I left Nan'an County to return to Beijing, told my son that he didn't have anyone else in the He family, but during the New Year and festivals, he would never leave behind any bacon. If Lao He's family has a bite of meat, it will never be short of a little oil star in your bowl!"
"..." Emperor Yan.
This is indeed what Lao Hetou said with a pat on his chest, and when he said this, he was really confident!
Of course, he didn't know who his in-laws were at that time, but he knew that pork was indeed the best thing in the world!
Of course, the meaning of these words can be used at this time, that is, if you dare to touch the He family again!
I let you put it in the bowl, believe it or not, there is no oil star!
This is a tactful expression of one's attitude. If you want me to help you, you can do it. No matter how you whittled me before, you can do it. But this time, you don't want to do what you did before. I will continue to do it to you after you whack me. With a smile on my face, I praise you for doing a good job!
Ji Chengjue was really stimulated.
I was stimulated by Zheng Fan,
He could no longer keep a low profile and bide his time.
I don’t want to go down anymore.
Because he clearly found that if he didn't do something, if he didn't show off his trademark as a prince again...
To put it bluntly, my friend, it’s just “a bunch of money.”
When the status gap between the two sides widens,
As the sixth prince,
In his eyes, Zheng Fan,
What can it count as?
If he is hungry, he can give him cornmeal;
But if he were to die one day, he would probably watch from the other side.
Based on his understanding of Zheng Fan, he believed that Zheng Fan was definitely someone who could do that kind of thing.
That guy was a ruthless man who used the corpses of his enemies to pile up his own military exploits. How could he have such unrealistic benevolence as a woman?
And as he slowly rises, more and more people are under his command. Many things are no longer completely under his control. Even if he wants to help himself, he will continue to remember his past friendship. Maybe he would be indifferent because he looked down upon himself, a poor prince.
They all have tempers and they are not old. Why can I, Ji Chengjue, not be as good as him?
Emperor Yan said:
"Three years?"
Emperor Yan is willing to do this deal.
Ji Chengjue immediately said:
“It takes one year to achieve results, two years to achieve initial success, and three years to achieve final results!”
"You said it yourself."
"Father, there is no joke before you."
Ji Chengjue issued a military order.
Emperor Yan nodded slightly. He was quite satisfied with this deal. He would see the results within a year.
Compared with three years of preparation, he can actually make a step back in everything else.
This is the son in front of me...
Emperor Yan waved his hand,
Road:
"You go down."
"My son, I still have something to worry about."
finished,
Ji Chengjue took out a piece of red paper from his arms and made a presentation.
The prince stood up, took the red paper, and found that it was a dowry list. The two pig hind legs were written in deliberately large fonts.
The prince sent this gift list to Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan took it and looked at it,
When he looked at this gift list, he seemed to be able to see how proud the old butcher was when he wrote this;
Do not,
He may not have written it himself. Judging from the neat handwriting, he should have asked his husband to write it specially. He also deliberately made the word "two pigs' hind legs" larger in size.
This is,
Are you showing off to me the richness of the He family?
"Hehehe."
Emperor Yan reached out and touched his forehead and smiled.
The prince was astonished.
Today, when he looked at the young and old, he really felt that he was superfluous, as if he couldn't fit in at all.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable, but he had no way to attack it, let alone show it.
Emperor Yan's eyes showed a little softness.
He thought of the gift list that Old Taishan of the Min family gave him when he accepted Concubine Min. It was prolonged and complicated, showing that his wealth was incomparable to the country, as if he was deliberately demonstrating to himself.
The Min family is not a century-old family, but it is definitely the most wealthy businessman in Dayan!
That day, when I was holding this gift list, I didn't feel any excitement or joy in my heart, but only anger.
In comparison,
This gift list,
It’s much more comfortable to watch.
And there is a difference in the depth of the handwriting before and after. It must have been specially added later.
This butcher father from Nan'an County,
I have been thinking about giving more in the dowry, giving as much as possible, and doing my best.
Emperor Yan waved his hand,
He motioned to the prince to step aside.
The prince stepped aside a little hurt,
This allowed Emperor Yan to continue to see Ji Chengjue kneeling on the ground.
"Cheng Jue."
"My son is here."
"You, don't you regret it?"
Ji Chengjue kowtows,
Spread your hands on the ground,
Sincerely said:
"I hope that in the future, my direct descendants of the Ji family will be worthy of the daughters of civilian families, and that the royal family and the common people will share weal and woe."
Emperor Yan didn't make any other reaction, didn't even let Ji Chengjue stand up, but looked at the prince.
"Father?"
"According to this gift list, double the amount and make the offer."
The prince is his elder brother, and since Ji Wujiang hasn't come back yet, he naturally has to take charge of the affairs. This is a matter of etiquette.
"Yes, Father."
When the prince turned around,
Emperor Yan spoke again:
"Hold on."
"Yes, Father."
"Pig hind legs, eight for free."
"..." Prince.
I will overwhelm you in the "pig" you are most proud of!
"Yes, Father."
The prince sat down again, feeling a little ridiculous that his father, who had always been serious about words, actually wanted to compete with a butcher in the county to vent his anger and... financial resources.
Emperor Yan still didn't let Ji Chengjue get up.
Then he ordered again:
"Purpose."
"Yes."
The prince spread out the imperial edict and began to write it.
After the imperial edict was written, it had to be submitted to Zhao Jiulang for approval, which meant that the courtiers would also approve it, and finally it would be sent to Wei Zhonghe for sealing to have real effect.
Of course, when the emperor is strong, all this is just a process.
"Former Sheng Le General Zheng Fan is appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of Xue Customs."
The prince began to write,
in fact,
This didn't surprise him at all.
Because since he saw Jingnan Hou Zhezi, he knew that this article must be passed.
But the next sentence,
But let the prince's hand,
Shaking slightly:
"Zheng Fan, Chief Soldier of Cexue Customs——Uncle Pingye"
