Jinyi champion

Chapter 890
Sun Jiao is not worried about how many old faces there are in the court, but worried about how many new faces there are.

That is to say, tell Jiang Mian that if Yang Yiqing, Xie Qian and others are reappointed, the result will be a big change of officials in the court. The emperor's use of veteran officials is just a cover, and the purpose is to increase some newcomers.

This is Sun Jiao giving Jiang Mian a vaccination.

If Zhu Hao rises in the court later, don't blame me for not reminding you.

After Jiang Mian talked with Sun, he returned to the cabinet to check the room, and was called aside by Mao Ji.

After Yang Tinghe left, the cabinet seemed to be quite deserted. Everyone was silent and had their own thoughts. Except for Jiang Mian and Mao Ji who got close, Fei Hong and Liu Chun didn't intend to get close. They seemed to know that Jiang Mian was now It may not be able to gain the trust and respect of the emperor.

"...What did Zhitong tell you?"

Mao Ji asked directly.

Jiang Mian summed up Sun Jiao's words roughly.

"Ugh!"

Mao Ji sighed, and said: "It seems that Jie Fu's worries are not unreasonable. His Majesty wants to make some changes in personnel recently. From this point of view, His Majesty's intention is not to reuse... Those two ?”

Mao Ji deliberately lowered his voice, referring to Fei Hong and Liu Chun.

Now Jiang Mian and Mao Ji are very wary of Fei Hong and Liu Chun, because Yang Tinghe's previous worry was that the emperor planned to replace Mao Ji with Fei Hong as the head and assistant.

But now the emperor doesn't seem to have any intention of reusing Fei Hong, but actively promotes the recall of Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian to the court.

Jiang Mian said: "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to replace all the cabinet members at once? Then why did he actively let Renzhong join the cabinet?"

Jiang Mian thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. Even if the emperor wanted to recruit Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian again, he still had to use one of them as the chief assistant. If you do the math, Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian will always be at the back.

The order of the cabinet only pays attention to the time when they join the cabinet. Regardless of Yang Yiqing and Xie Qian's experience as officials in the past, even if Xie Qian was one of the three cabinet ministers of Hongzhi at the beginning, they will have to arrange the order again after re-entering the cabinet. Halfway guards had to leave very different.

If Yang Yiqing or Xie Qian were to be the chief assistants, it would mean that none of the four members of the cabinet would remain, which was inconsistent with the emperor's previous intention of actively promoting Fei Hong and Liu Chun to join the cabinet.

Mao Jidao: "If Your Majesty really intends to add cabinet ministers, he should also give priority to Hanlin bachelors."

"Ah."

Jiang Mian nodded in agreement with this statement.

At present, there are two Hanlin scholars, namely Shi Pang and Fengxi. These two can be regarded as members of the Yang Tinghe faction. Take charge of patent matters.

It stands to reason that there is really a next candidate for the cabinet, and Shi Ping is the one everyone hopes for.

……

……

As soon as Yang Tinghe retreated, people in the court felt uneasy.

Everyone is wondering who is the next person to retire, whether it will be their turn, or who is the next official to join the cabinet...

With guesses in mind, it will affect the daily public affairs. The efficiency of the government seems to have slowed down. It may also be that without Yang Tinghe's constraints, the yamen of the court began to slack off in their work.

Recently.

Zhu Hao was busy with some "private affairs".

One is to help Jinghong enter the Imperial College, now without the constraints of Yang Tinghe, as long as someone comes forward, it can be completed smoothly, and the person who handles this matter happens to be Tang Yin who has just returned to Beijing and is already under review by the Imperial Academy.

The second is the expansion of Zhu Hao's own workshop.

It was because of Yang Tinghe's departure that Zhu Hao needed to gradually open up some of the secret workshops.

Zhu Hao's weaving workshop in the capital can basically meet the cost of clothing materials for half of the north. In terms of loom efficiency alone, it is not comparable to manual work in this era. Before, Zhu Hao used cloth for military supplies, but As production increases further, it gradually begins to move towards retail.

There is also the issue of Lu Zhanqing's placement.

After Zhu Hao returned to Beijing, he was warmly received the first time he came to the door. After all, Lu Zhanqing has always been helped by Zhu Hao.

Lu Zhanqing was in a good mood when she saw Zhu Hao, but not because she saw Zhu Hao, but because she knew that Yang Tinghe had returned from his post.

"It's a pity that he couldn't be sent to prison, and he will be stigmatized as a sinner for thousands of years." Lu Zhanqing felt a little regretful.

woman.

Once you have hatred, you can't care about anything else.

Zhu Hao said: "Your grandfather's letter, I believe you have read it. He is fine now. He is still in the guard as a civil servant. He has been well taken care of. There are already relatives who have gone to join him. In a few years, he will be able to return smoothly. Hometown, take care of your life."

Lu Zhanqing thanked Zhu Hao for saluting.

Zhu Hao then took out some silver, all of which were high-quality sealed silver ingots. They were placed there, adding up to more than 100 taels.

"Master, what are you doing?"

Seeing so much silver, Lu Zhanqing didn't understand what Zhu Hao meant for a while.

Zhu Hao said: "I'll give you more money once, I may not have time to come over in the future, if you need anything, just ask someone to let you know."

Lu Zhanqing looked regretful: "So the master still refuses to accept such a duckweed as a concubine?"

Between the words, I was about to cry, so pitiful.

But in fact, Lu Zhanqing is not so down and down now. She lives in the capital and has freedom. She even started some small businesses and wanted to be the owner herself. Zhu Hao originally wanted her to participate in the workshop and women's school. If the law is not implemented, everything lies in Lu Zhanqing's inability to stand in front of the stage.

The relationship between her and Zhu Hao couldn't be clearly defined. Zhu Hao didn't want people to know his relationship with Lu Zhanqing and Lu Wan.

After all, the identity of Lu Wan's granddaughter is still too sensitive.

Zhu Hao said: "I didn't restrict your personal freedom. If you want to get married, these should be considered as my dowry."

When Lu Zhanqing heard it, he said with a sense of arrogance: "Master, please don't underestimate my concubine. Although I am not favored by my master, I have already regarded myself as the wife of the Zhu family. Even if I am nameless, my master's kindness must be repaid. , the Lu family will never be ungrateful."

"Oh."

Zhu Hao didn't think Lu Zhanqing was so affectionate and righteous.

Or, if Zhu Hao was just an ordinary person, would Lu Zhanqing still be like this?
Let's make a profit!
Zhu Hao said: "Your elder brother has already arrived in the capital, and now he is a military household in Jinyiwei. Do you want to meet him?"

"not see."

Lu Zhanqing answered directly.

"Ah."

Zhu Hao nodded again, "It's okay to not see you, but your family already knows that you are all right now. I basically won't personally come forward for Lu's family affairs, but if it's about jobs and future prospects, I can help as much as I can."

Lu Zhanqing said: "The Lu family's safety depends entirely on the protection of the master."

"I can't say that. I can only say that your Lu family is in a very special position. Your grandfather is guilty, but the crime is not as serious as that of your relatives. You are not guilty now, so you don't need to hide... There are two contracts here. One is this house, and the other is just at the intersection, it is a shop, and now it is doing some rice business, the shopkeeper and helpers are ready-made, you can take it."

Zhu Hao said, and took out an envelope from his arms, which contained the house deed that Zhu Hao said.

Lu Zhanqing took it in her hand, as if she understood what Zhu Hao meant.

If she accepted the money and indicated that she wanted to go solo, perhaps Zhu Hao would not take out the deed and parted ways with her directly.

She stated that she wanted to stay by Zhu Hao's side, which was tantamount to confirming Zhu Hao's identity as a foreign house, and Zhu Hao needed to give her the basis for survival.

Going out to do business on her own is difficult, and she has to show her face. It doesn't fit Zhu Hao's status. Zhu Hao directly gave away two houses. Just the yard where she lived, regardless of the size of the place, but In the land of the capital, at least it is worth a thousand taels of silver. How else can it be said that living in the capital is not easy?

As for the pavement... that's even more valuable.

Lu Zhanqing said: "These are all given to me by the master?"

"Ah."

Zhu Hao said, "You have to find a way to make a living, and I will keep it for you, and I will give it to you if you don't have enough."

Although Lu Zhanqing didn't value these extraneous things, she was still very moved to get them.

This fully shows that Zhu Hao is the kind of responsible man. As long as she is willing to pay, she can get rewards from Zhu Hao... Moreover, Zhu Hao's generous spending not only shows that Zhu Hao has power, but also shows that Zhu Hao has money in his pocket. It's exciting, a woman raised in a foreign house can give so much, so how rich is Zhu Hao's family property?
Lu Zhanqing said: "The master will be in the imperial court in the future, and he probably doesn't want people to know about his relationship with the concubine, but the concubine always has to reciprocate. When will the master officially want me? I'm talking about...my body."

Now Lu Zhanqing figured it out.

Fame and so on are just floating clouds.

Now that she has decided to stay with Zhu Hao, don't think about her status, but think about when she will establish a relationship with Zhu Hao, so that she can figure it out.

Zhu Hao didn't expect Lu Zhanqing to be so direct, and said with a smile, "You and I are both young, why are you in a hurry? Besides, you just want to see the end of your life at a glance, and make sure you won't change it? I've been busy with business recently, How about this, in the future I will often come over to have a meal with you or something, to communicate more, to cultivate a relationship, as for other things... Let nature take its course, when the right time comes, it will come naturally."

Zhu Hao is a person who is greedy for beauty?
If so, he would already be surrounded by wives and concubines.

People who do big things don't take the personal relationship of their children very seriously. At Zhu Hao's status, it is really difficult for him to take care of the affairs of these men and women around him.

Even Sun Lan's side, he was just dragging, let alone Lu Zhanqing.

Zhu Hao turned around and walked towards the door, followed by Lu Zhanqing.

Zhu Hao looked at the furnishings in the yard and sighed: "This second courtyard is still a bit small, I will replace it for you later."

"It's already good."

Lu Zhanqing really has nothing extravagant to ask for.

What more can you expect if you can mix a house in the capital?
Zhu Hao nodded: "Then you should take someone over to take over the shop as soon as possible. How to manage it is up to you. I have checked the accounts. Last month's revenue was less than ten taels. It is absolutely worth more than a hundred taels a year. Enough for your life. If you want to take good care of it and make more profits, it all depends on your own ability."
