Jinyi champion

What should be said to Huang Zan, Zhu Hao had already asked Su Xigui to convey it.

Now it's just a re-communication about the matter in person, and it's confirmed without saying anything. After all, Zhu Hao is not the emperor, or even an official who can take charge. It depends on whether Huang Zan believes it or not.

If you are willing to believe, then obey and do things, if you don't believe... you won't be sitting here.

Afterwards, Huang Zan complimented Zhu Hao's talent, thanked Zhu Hao for providing the method of drying salt so that he could get the opportunity to be promoted to the servant of the household department, and did not talk about his going to the capital to be a minister.Huang Zan understood that it was basically impossible for Yang Tinghe to enter Beijing if Yang Tinghe was in power.

Going there is just asking for trouble, it is better to stay in Nanjing, at least Yang Tinghe wants to deal with her, it will take a while for the message to pass, and he can still make some connections.

The two chatted for about half an hour, Huang Zan got up to say goodbye, and then they left the shop separately.

Su Xigui walked out with Zhu Hao, still with a respectful expression on his face.

"Huang Gong didn't tell me the details. After I communicate with Huang Gong, I will discuss it with the young master." Su Xigui looked very happy. He had two major supporters in his life, Huang Zan and Zhu Hao. He relied on his brother-in-law Huang for the first half of his life. Zan supports him, but he will mainly rely on Zhu Hao in the future.

Of course, there are some things that cannot be said too clearly.

But now Su Xigui's work has been inclined to Zhu Hao's side, and he has to find out Huang Zan's true thoughts in his heart and tell Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao nodded: "These days I'm in Nanjing, Su Dongzhu may rarely see me recently, just send someone to inform me if there is anything to do."

"Yep."

Su Xigui said, "Young master, I have heard that many things are happening in the capital now, I don't know you..."

Zhu Hao said: "I'm in Nanjing, so I don't think about the affairs of the capital. It's better to finish my errands and return to Beijing early. It's not good to be a stranger in a foreign land alone."

Su Xigui smiled and said: "Young master is just starting a family and starting a business. He cannot do without his wife. At my age, I can feel at ease wherever I go. Mr. Huang will do his best to help investigate the case. You don't have to worry about the little master. I will take care of you." If Mr. Huang can help, if he can’t help, let’s do our best together, and you can just wait for the news.”

Zhu Hao noticed that Su Xigui made a gesture of trying to draw a line with Huang Zan.

Could it be that the accounts and other issues that Huang Zan investigated and dealt with can be distinguished from yours, Su Xigui?It's as if you only told me and not Huang Zan after you checked things?
"Then I'll wait for the good news."

The carriage drove up to the two of them, Su Xigui personally helped Zhu Hao into the carriage, and watched the carriage go away before turning back to the shop.

……

……

As far as Zhu Hao is concerned, Haiphong's account deficit is not the focus of his going south.

He wants to help Zhu Si take over the military power in Nanjing. As for the coastal defense...after he gets the military power in Nanjing, he will naturally be able to take over the important task of coastal defense step by step. But the premise is to bypass Yang Tinghe's constraints first.

to be honest.

He came to Jiangnan just to prove himself that he didn't do anything for the new emperor. I guess Yang Tinghe didn't expect him and Yu Chengxun to make some achievements in Nanjing, right?

When Zhu Hao returned to the garden, he happened to see Yu Chengxun taking someone out.

"Jingdao, why are you back? Didn't you spend the night at home today?"...

Yu Chengxun asked curiously.

Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Business is important. Besides, my relationship with the family is not very harmonious. I came out after a short stay. Seeing that it was still early, I went to visit a friend I knew..."

Yu Chengxun was startled, Zhu Hao's words were really frank.

You just said that you went back to Zhu's house, and I still want to ask who you went to meet?But now you have offered to find a friend yourself, so I have to ask a few questions.

"Brother Jingdao, do you still have friends in Nanjing?"

Yu Chengxun was very surprised.

Zhu Hao leaned over and said, "To tell you the truth, in fact, Huang Butang, the household department of Nanjing, and I are old friends."

"Pfft... respectfully, you don't want to say, you went to see Huang Butang, right?" Yu Chengxun almost wanted to vomit blood.

Listen to what this is all about?
Didn't you say you were going home to visit your relatives?In the end, I mentioned going to see a friend in a blink of an eye, so I had to ask a few questions, but you told me that you were going to see Huang Zan?

So this is...how can I report to the capital?
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Actually, it's because I have some contacts with Huang Zan's brother-in-law, a merchant who does business. My family used to do business. As for Huang Butang, it's not like you can see him whenever you want."

In fact, Zhu Hao didn't say whether he saw it or not, he only mentioned that he was going to see Huang Zan, and let Yu Chengxun figure it out by himself.

When Yu Chengxun heard it, he certainly felt that Zhu Hao hadn't seen Huang Zan, but just wanted to see him.

A young champion, even if it is Hanlin, wants to meet a grandma like the Minister of the Household Department of Nanjing after arriving in Nanjing, and he has to wait for a date after posting the invitation letter. It is very likely that he is not interested in seeing you at all, so why bother to say it out of embarrassment?

"Jingdao, you should know that this Huang Butang was actually very close to some of the late emperor's courtiers. Yang Zhongtang has always been prejudiced against him, so... you can meet anyone, but don't even think about meeting them yet. He said that today I want to see someone, will you go with me?"

Yu Chengxun only thought that Zhu Hao was the kind of young man who was eager for quick success and wanted to climb Huang Zan's high branch, so he taught Zhu Hao some official rules.

From a certain point of view, Yu Chengxun was honest with Zhu Hao.

Zhu Hao asked, "Who?"

"Heh, he is a bachelor of the Nanjing Imperial Academy. His name is Yan Song, and his character is Weizhong. He entered the official position very early, but he has not been in the center for a long time. Now he has just been promoted to a servant in the Southern Imperial Academy, and he is acting for the affairs of the Southern Imperial Academy. He is Yang Old disciple Ge, no... He knew we were coming, so he specially asked me to come over and talk, but I don’t know what to talk about.”

When Yu Chengxun said this, he was afraid that Zhu Hao would misunderstand him, so he added another explanation, "Yan Weizhong is not interested in official career or anything, he is more like a rural Taoist in the court. If you don’t want to have contact with this kind of person, then don’t go.”

Yu Chengxun was right.

Because Yan Song was successful in his later years, he joined the cabinet at the age of 63. Now that he is over [-] years old, he is still dawdling in the Nanjing Imperial Academy. No one thinks that he has ambitions for the officialdom. In addition, Yan Song likes to study those Taoist things, so he can't speak well. It is easier to make people think that he is unreliable.

But it is such a person, 30 years later, the power will be in power, who would believe it?

Zhu Hao thought about it, Yan Donglou is still a kid right now, maybe being killed in the cradle... is also a good choice. …

But think about it.

It seems a bit crazy to target a kid just because he has the ability to help his father in the official history.

But Zhu Hao also has to think about the rest of his life. If there is someone who can threaten Zhu Hao in the future, or even form a fierce confrontation with him in front of Zhu Si, Yan Song and his son will bear the brunt of it. Who else has the ability to match him? fight?
Planning things 20 years in advance is a bit early after all, Zhu Hao is not in the mood to target Yan Song yet.

Zhu Hao said: "As brother Maogong said, I'd better not join in the fun, I'll go back to my room to rest first."

"Okay, then I'll go first."

Yu Chengxun hurried away.

Zhu Hao originally wanted to ask why he didn't see Yang Weicong?

But thinking about it again, I guess Yang Weicong also feels that Yu Chengxun is neglecting him now, so he is embarrassed to live in the garden again tonight, right?
When I entered the garden and asked, it turned out that Yang Weicong did not come with Yu Chengxun in the afternoon.

Yang Weicong and Yu Chengxun seem to be in the same party, but once suspicions arise within the same party, it is difficult to trust them.

Zhu Hao thought of himself, even if he returned to the capital in the future, Yang Ting and his father and son would gradually alienate him... It would be a pity for ordinary people, but for Zhu Hao, it was something he could only wish for.

……

……

Beijing.

Reports on Northwest military affairs can be sent to the capital several times a day, and the battle reports are flying in like snowflakes, especially on the front line of Xuanda. Chen Jiuchou, the Governor-General, faces a lot of troubles every day like a prostitute, and it is difficult to convey government orders.
Xuanda everywhere.

Totally a bare-bones commander.

Zhu Si specially asked Zang Feng to participate in this day's court meeting. It was tantamount to asking Zang Feng to summarize his trip to the Northwest, telling the ministers present what he encountered in the Northwest, and at the same time, through court debates, to make a contribution for his actions in the Northwest. Explanation.

Because Zang Feng's position as the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment was temporarily dismissed, and he was still a criminal, when he appeared in the court in ordinary clothes, many people gave him strange looks.

But when Zang Feng talked eloquently in front of the emperor and all the ministers, and all the problems that Xuanda had accumulated over the years, all the ministers present, including Yang Tinghe, realized that Zang Feng not only knew about rivers and water transportation Even military affairs are so good at things.

After Zhu Si finished listening, he sighed: "Zang Qing's family made Xuanda, because your understanding of water transportation is more than enough to manage Xuanfu's money and food. Who knows that after you arrived in Xuanda, the flames of war followed. The worker is full of doubts about you, thinking that you don’t understand anything, and he is afraid that you will delay the military plane, so he let you go back to the court. Now it seems... that this task should be undertaken by you, which is the best choice.”

The emperor's words were clearly slapping Yang Tinghe in the face.

Although Yang Tinghe was not directly involved in the impeachment of Zang Feng, but Chen Jiuchou succeeded Zang Feng as the governor of Xuanda, and he was indeed responsible for it.

The emperor's words clearly imply that Chen Jiuchou, the successor, has not done a good job, so it is better to replace Zang Feng again.

Zang Feng knelt down and kowtowed when he heard the words: "I failed to fulfill your majesty's entrustment, and I deserve death. I hope that your majesty will allow me to return to my hometown to live my life for the sake of my dedication to the court."

Zhu Sidao: "Zang Qing's family, you are not very old, why do you want to go back to take care of yourselves? Wouldn't it be good to stay in court for a few more years? I asked Jin Yiwei to check the results of the battle at Baiyangkou, and learned that Baiyangkou falsely reported military exploits, etc. It has nothing to do with you directly, this case will have to wait until after the war to investigate, you have no fault but merit.”

"Get up, I still want to ask you more about the Northwest, so as to facilitate the layout of the Xuanda situation, and I have another appointment for you."
