Chapter 555
Zhang Hao was chatting with those generals, sitting there chatting together, at night, Zhang Hao had dinner with those generals in the barracks,

For the people who came out of the British mansion, the generals are their foundation. Zhang Hao also knows this. They are generals, and generals are going to go to the battlefield.
Fortunately, Zhang Hao and those generals dealt with each other very well. In the previous battle, Zhang Hao was at the forefront, and in the last battle, Zhang Hao was able to defeat the Tatars, so those generals admired Zhang Hao in their hearts.
However, they still respect Zhang Li, but they don’t admire Zhang Li. After all, Zhang Li used to study literature, but now he abandons his pen and joins the army.

But everyone will not show it. After all, in the future, Zhang Li will also be a British prince, and he will also need to manage the Imperial Guard. Those generals understand the principles of life. Not to mention anything else, just because Zhang Li is Zhang Hao’s brother, they also Respect is needed. At night, Zhang Hao went back in a carriage, drunk.

"Why did you drink like this?" Xu Shiyun saw Zhang Hao being supported back, so she came over immediately, supported Zhang Hao, and asked.

"Master was drinking with those generals, and he drank too much, but he is still very happy!" The servant who followed Zhang Hao immediately reported.

"Oh, drinking with those generals, didn't you go to the Duke's mansion? Isn't the father-in-law in the barracks?" Xu Shiyun nodded when she heard it.

"Master went to the barracks!" The servant continued to report.

"Okay, go to the bedroom quickly, and tell the back kitchen to prepare porridge. The master wakes up, he may be hungry, and prepare sober tea!" Xu Shiyun immediately ordered, and then the maids helped Zhang Hao Head over to the back yard,

After settling down, Xu Shiyun also sat there and exercised his muscles and bones. He was really tired today. There was no other way. Only the two of them could make decisions at home. Zhang Hao needed to be outside, so the family could only rely on Xu Shiyun, but Fortunately, there are only a few days in a year, and there are not so many things to do, otherwise it would be too much.

When Zhang Hao woke up the next morning, he also had a headache. Xu Shiyun also supported Zhang Hao, and then fed Zhang Hao porridge.

"You too, why do you drink so much? Drinking with those generals, they drink very crazy!" Xu Shiyun was sitting there, feeding Zhang Hao porridge, and scolded worriedly.

"Hey, you don't understand. I don't go there for a year. I go on the first day of the new year. How can those generals let me go?" Zhang Hao said with a wry smile.

"Are you going to Daddy's place today?" Xu Shiyun said to Zhang Hao.

"I'm going, my father-in-law should be angry if I don't go, but you go and stay there, I'll leave after a while, or I will cause trouble for my father-in-law!" Zhang Hao said to Xu Shiyun while sitting there.

"Is it about those corrupt officials?" Xu Shiyun asked. .

"Well. That's it. Don't trouble your father-in-law. I'll just say hello and leave. I'm going to the Jinyiwei prison. I also need to see those subordinates! By the way, prepare some snacks at home. It needs to be brought over to feed those subordinates, and it is not easy for them to be on duty!" Zhang Hao confessed to Xu Shiyun.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements later!" Xu Shiyun nodded. After eating porridge, Zhang Hao still felt better, so he got up and put on his clothes, and then set off for Xu Jie's mansion with his son.

When they arrived at Xu Jie's mansion, Zhang Hao also sat there chatting for a while, and then left. Xu Jie didn't stop him, knowing that Zhang Hao avoided them on purpose, and sure enough, just as Zhang Hao left, Yan Song and the others came over.

"Where's Marquis Lu An?" Yan Song asked Xu Jie after he came in.

"Let's go, what's the matter?" Xu Jie pretended to be confused and said.

"Hey, you son-in-law, you don't know the rules. You just came to pay New Year's greetings and then left without any food. If it spreads, people who don't know will think that you, Xu Ge, don't even care about your son-in-law's food! " Yan Song said to Xu Jie with a smile.

"I can't help it. He is the commander of Jinyiwei. Why don't he go to see if those subordinates are right? It's okay, they are all in the capital anyway, and they usually come to eat, so this meal is not bad!" Xu Jie waved his hand and said.

"I said Mr. Xu Ge, you are not worried, but we need to find him. Taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, I don't think Zhang Hao will get angry if we say anything, right? You need to take care of this matter for us." Yes!" Yu Dafang said while sitting there, looking at Xu Jie.

"Yes, Mr. Xu Ge, you still need to make an appointment for this matter. This time, the official department reported it and was beaten back. We don't know what to do now!" Zhang Jing also looked at Zhang Hao. Said.

"Did you call back the list reported by the Ministry of Officials? When did it happen?" Xu Jie heard this, looked at Zhang Jing in surprise and asked.

"It was just a call back yesterday, and the supervisor of rites sent someone to send it over. Your Majesty disagrees with this list!" Zhang Jing said, he was on duty yesterday.

"Here, I called back. Don't you have any instructions?" Xu Jie also said worriedly.

"Here is the memorial. Let's take a look. It is said that the Ministry of Officials has re-drawn the list, and it doesn't say who is unqualified or who is qualified. We don't know what to do if we get it?" Zhang Jing took out the memorial and handed it over. After showing it to Xu Jie, Xu Jie took the memorial and looked at Yan Song.

"I've read it, but I don't know what His Majesty means. I have no idea!" Yan Song looked at Xu Jie and said.

"This!" Xu Jie was also worried, and then he opened the memorial, looked carefully, and found that there were only a few words on it, and there were no other hints. This also made Xu Jie embarrassed.

"Is there no news from His Majesty?" Xu Jie looked at Yan Song and continued to ask.

"Which one of us saw His Majesty? That is, Zhang Hao saw His Majesty. Yesterday Zhang Hao stayed in the alchemy room for a whole morning. In the evening, this memorial was recorded. It can be seen that Zhang Hao knew about it, so, We want to ask Zhang Hao to come over and ask, you also need to look for it,
Besides, Mr. Xu Ge, although Zhang Hao went to Jinyiwei, he wouldn't eat at Jinyiwei, would he?Your son-in-law is here to pay New Year's greetings, why don't you say hello? " Yan Song looked at Xu Jie and asked.

"Yeah, how about we wait for him here? Mr. Xu Ge, this matter is related to the stability of the court this year. In addition, an imperial decree was sent by the Supervisor of Rituals yesterday, which is His Majesty's announcement that we will continue to treat him this year." The whole country is tax-free, so all the money collected by the court is exempted, that is, the merchants still retain taxes.

Your Majesty got a lot of money a few years ago. This is of course a good thing, but it is not easy for our officials in the court. Every penny needs to be carefully calculated. nothing can happen,
If something happens, it will be a big trouble at that time. Now we are also worried about how to choose those officials. If the selection is not good, there will be troubles at that time. If the selection is successful, there will be no credit, so this matter, without Zhang Hao No way! "Yu Dafang sat there, looked at Zhang Hao and said.

"Yeah, there are a lot of vacancies on Du Yushi's side. This year Du Yushi needs to supervise those officials well. If we don't supervise well, we will be unlucky at that time. But how to choose those officials, there is no direction yet. Ah!" Zhou Yan also looked at Xu Jie in embarrassment and said.

"This!" Xu Jie is also in a dilemma. He knows that Zhang Hao is avoiding them, and now he wants to call Zhang Hao over. He is worried that Zhang Hao will be in trouble, and he may have opinions on himself. Thinking of this, Xu Jie immediately confronted them. Said.

"Then I would like to trouble you to wait here for a while. I'd better go to Jinyiwei's side in person. Otherwise, Zhang Hao's side may not come over. Now that he is very busy, I will go there in person. I think Zhang Hao's side will come over!" Xu Jie sat there, looked at them and said.

"That's fine, you go and come back quickly, we'll wait for him here, if this matter is not resolved today, we don't want to stop these few days, I guess this year will be uncomfortable!" Yan Song sat there and said to Xu Jie.

"Okay, I'll go there now!" Xu Jie nodded, knowing that if this matter is not resolved, everyone will have nothing good to eat, so we should go first and then talk about it.

Soon, Xu Jie arrived at the Jinyiwei yamen, and Zhang Hao had already left to go to the cell. After all, there were still many people on duty in the cell. Since Zhang Hao brought some snacks, he must have visited those people. Ordinary soldiers on duty,
Xu Jie had no choice but to chase him to the cell.
But at this moment, Zhang Hao was already looking at those files, and some officials still couldn't hold on, and they all started talking one after another.

"My lord, Mr. Xu Ge is begging to see you outside!" Li Mingdan came to Zhang Hao's side and said to Zhang Hao.

"My father-in-law, what's the matter?" Zhang Hao heard it, and was very suspicious. He had just left his house not long ago, why did he find this place? Zhang Hao stood up after speaking, walked outside, and arrived at Jinyiwei Prison Outside, I saw Xu Jie standing there with his carriage behind.

"Father-in-law, what's the matter?" Zhang Hao went over and asked.

"Hao'er, you probably still need to go to my house for dinner today, and now Yan Song and the others are waiting for you over there. Last night, His Majesty typed down the list of officials reported by the Ministry of Officials, and now everyone doesn't know what to do I want to go over and ask you what you mean. You know that there are so many vacancies this time, especially those from the Ministry of Household Affairs. You said, if you don’t make up for it, how will you work this year? Spring is coming soon. No one can work!" Xu Jie stood there and said to Zhang Hao.

"Well, they were shot down? It's normal, those people are all yours, and some of them are vassal kings, you don't know, so they were shot down!" Zhang Hao nodded upon hearing this.

"A member of the vassal king?" Xu Jie heard it and looked at Zhang Hao in surprise.
