The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

Now that the matter has been negotiated, then the next time, it is really time to have a good drink. Speaking of it, this is a little different from other banquets. If it is someone else, these things will definitely not happen. To say it at this time is definitely to speak slowly while drinking.

However, it is really inappropriate to apply this article to Zhang Fan and the others. After all, they are all people with something on their minds. Chang Zuo, they are all people with concerns. If they can't talk about their concerns well, I'm afraid none of them will be in the mood to drink.

Fortunately, although there are some conflicts between the two parties, fortunately, it is not too big. The most important thing is that both parties want to understand the other party's intention first, so it is not unreasonable to say it like this. people understand things.

However, although this matter has been negotiated, it is certain that both sides have been frank with each other. The two sides are absolutely not honest with each other. They must have some concerns buried in their hearts. What I have said is actually clear from the conversations between the two sides, and it is absolutely true.

However, as for what they did not say in the end, neither side intends to point it out. Although those things, although not detailed, they all know what they mean in general. If those things are clarified, the banquet will definitely end soon, not only that, but there will be an unhappy breakup, and no one can guarantee whether the consequences will be serious or not. Therefore, it seems that it is just right to reach this point.

In short, at the wine table, these people had a very happy conversation, although it was not to the point of talking about everything, and the things they talked about were nothing more than some people in the court, or they themselves met. It's just an anecdote, but they chatted very vigorously. Even Mao Zhengqing, who was nervous at the beginning and couldn't say a word, interrupted and said a lot. In short, the atmosphere was very good.

After the banquet was over, although everyone was a little drunk, Zhang Fan still insisted on sending Mu Changzuo back to his residence first. Originally, after the news that Mu Changzuo was coming here came, Zhang Fan also tried to find a way to get rid of it. If they had a good place to live, the post house would not work. Although Zhang Fan and the others thought it didn't matter, it was obviously inappropriate to use it to greet guests, especially guests like Mu Changzuo.

Fortunately, this time in Yongning Mansion, there is a big family. Years ago, the whole family went on a trip to Shaanxi to visit relatives, but now a big house is vacant, and now, something like this happened in Yongning Mansion , the family also heard the news that they were going to stay in Shaanxi for a long time and would not come back. Zhang Fan also made his own decision and cleaned the house for Mu Changzuo and the others to stay temporarily.

It's just that Mu Changzuo didn't appreciate it, not to mention that he showed his dissatisfaction with Zhang Fan in this matter. The reasons he found were very sufficient. After all, this is where his father-in-law lived. , his father-in-law's family is also a big family, so it's no problem to live there.

So, after the banquet, Zhang Fan sent Mu Changzuo to the door of Ding Youyang's house. Zhang Fan didn't enter the door, but said goodbye to him at the door. Of course, even so, the two still seemed very enthusiastic , There is no sign of any dispute at all.

Moreover, Zhang Fan also paid attention to the expression of Ding Youyang who was watching them at the door at that time. He definitely has a stern look on his face. I'm afraid he never imagined that in just over an hour, two people who don't know each other and even have some conflicts when they really care about it can become such a relationship.

However, this is not the point. No matter how ignorant Ding Youyang is of these complicated matters in the officialdom, or in other words, he doesn’t need to know these things, but he just can’t figure it out. How can people who have a grudge against each other show such a harmonious relationship so naturally? Thinking about it, this may be something he can't figure out all his life.

In short, Zhang Fan and Mu Changzuo staged a scene where they met and hated each other, and then they bid farewell to Yiyi. Before parting, Mu Changzuo also said many times that he hoped that Zhang Fan Zhang Fan did not refuse anyone who could come to him if he was free, and immediately agreed.

Here, Mu Changzuo's welcome is over. Feng Bao and the others have gone back a long time ago. They don't seem to be involved in this matter, but it doesn't mean that they are completely ignorant of this matter. Don't ask, once things change, they will definitely stand up and speak out, and there is no doubt that they will definitely stand by Zhang Fan's side, but since Mu Changzuo's arrival From the looks of it, it seems that the chances of being able to evolve into that kind of appearance are not very high. From some aspects, this is somewhat reassuring, but it is also somewhat disappointing. Of course, those who feel disappointed are also There are only one or two people who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.

After leaving Ding Youyang's house, Zhang Fan, Liang Chao, Wang Meng and others walked towards the post station.

In today's Yongning City, it can be said that it has completely settled down. Speaking of it, this is already very fast. If it is replaced by other places, it is absolutely impossible to settle down within a month. Well, speaking of it, the reason for this is thanks to Zhang Fan, who used some novel methods.

It's not that I want to praise Zhang Fan so much. After all, these methods of his are not invented by him, but are based on the experience of later generations. However, no matter what method is used, or plagiarized others The most important thing is the result. The result is that Yongning Mansion settled down in a short period of time. The people did not make trouble, and there was no chaos like before. This can even be regarded as a kind of incident. It was a miracle.

And the current Yongning Mansion is definitely very peaceful, and it can even be said that it is much more peaceful than before this incident happened.

At the very least, after this incident, the people of Yongning Mansion will not need to worry about life for a long time. Every family has so much more food, even if they have little money, but If you want to use money, just go to the Yamen to report.

Speaking of this matter, Zhang Fan had to feel a little surprised. Originally, he thought that his decision would make many people wantonly apply for the money. Perhaps in the early stage, the common people were still reluctant Believe it or not, the number of claims will be relatively small, but once they see that the yamen has really distributed real money, some people will want to get more.

Regarding this kind of matter, Zhang Fan also explained it to Mao Zhengqing. If the number is particularly large, the investigation will be more rigorous, and it will be difficult to send it down. Moreover, there are other, for example, a family , Those who have applied for it cannot apply again within half a year.

Although there are 90 taels of silver, after all, there are tens of thousands of people in this prefecture and thousands of households, so it is still very fast to use. Therefore, Zhang Fan made this decision.

However, up to now, hundreds of households have applied for it at the yamen, and dozens of households have already received the money, but at this time, they have not spent much. From the account books, it seems that it is only used. The amount of 1 taels of silver, the largest one, cost more than 200 taels, and it was applied by two families. They were getting married recently and bought a house. That’s why they spent so much. Others, they didn’t. What a huge amount.

This is also a good thing.

In short, Zhang Fan walked all the way from Ding Youyang's house back to the post station, and the scene he saw on the way was really good. Although it can't be called the peaceful and prosperous world where everyone has a smile on their faces, it is already much better. .

"My lord," Wang Meng said at this time, he doesn't care about these things, but cares about what happened to Zhang Fan, "My lord really intends to follow Mu Changzuo's intention to give the queen mother a book and make everything go away." Take it to your lord?" He already knew about it, so now he wants to ask Zhang Fan what he thinks about it.

"Of course I will accept this booklet, after all, I have already promised him, so I must not break my promise," Zhang Fan said, "It's just that although this booklet is going to be accepted, it can't be all that he wants. something I wrote,"

Liang Chao on the side heard what Zhang Fan said, and immediately asked, "Does your lord want to impeach him?"

"No, impeachment is out of the question," Zhang Fan waved his hand, and said, "First, I have no reason to impeach him, and second, as he said, it is indeed not a good thing to replace Duke Qian here now."

"Then what does your lord plan to do?" Liang Chao asked again.

"The content on the booklet is naturally to be written according to Mu Changzuo's meaning," Zhang Fan said, "but, of course, I can't take everything on myself, I have to make it clear to the queen mother." Okay, these are what Mu Changzuo asked me to write, just saying that I don’t want to offend him, that’s how I did it.”

What Zhang Fan meant was to tell Empress Dowager Li clearly what happened today. In this way, it would be impossible for Mu Changzuo or anyone else who wanted to play tricks in the future.

"Then if this happens, won't he be in bad luck?" Wang Meng asked.

"No way," Zhang Fan shook his head, and said, "Of course I will explain to the Queen Mother the seriousness involved. The Queen Mother is not a person who wants to mess up, and she will find a solution if she thinks about it."
