The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

In the capital, it's almost February now, and the severe cold in the capital has long since disappeared. Although the weather still makes people feel a little cold, this kind of weather is really no problem for people in the north who have long been used to it.

It’s not long since the beginning of spring. For the people in the capital, this is nothing unusual, and life is still the same. Of course, since it is under the feet of the emperor, the people who live here will always unconsciously. There is such a feeling of superiority, which is also the biggest feature of the capital. Here, even ordinary people will talk about some affairs in the court. After all, although the Ming Dynasty is a feudal dynasty, it can be regarded as very enlightened. There is no such thing as a literary prison. Even if there are spies from Dongchang among the people, as long as they don't say something that is really excessive, no one will take care of it.

Of course, this is not because of the kindness of Dongchang, but because the people who said these words are very ordinary people. It's a waste of time, but speaking of it, today's Dongchang is very different from before. Today's Feng Bao wants to keep a low profile, so his subordinates have also become low-key. Generally speaking, as long as It's not a serious question, so they won't ask too much.

All in all, today's capital city is peaceful.

Of course, Zhang Fan hadn't come back yet, although whether it was peaceful or not had nothing to do with whether Zhang Fan was in the capital or not, but it was different now.

People in the court didn't know much about Zhu Xuanqi before. Even though it was the last time that Feng Bao wanted to ask Zhang Juzheng for help, although he didn't let other people know about it, the things in the palace were still the same. I can't hide it at all, even if I didn't know it at the time, I will definitely know what happened later. After all, although this happened in the palace, in fact, for the ministers in the court, things in the palace There is really nothing to hide. For the ministers, there are too many ways to know what happened in the palace.

All in all, everyone in the court already knew that Empress Dowager Li wanted to deal with Zhu Xuanqi, and those people could have guessed what Zhang Fan was sent to Sichuan years ago. , is related to Zhu Xuanqi, so the first thing those ministers thought of was that Zhang Fan had already found the handle on Zhu Xuanqi.

What exactly is it? Although these people don't know what they have caught, but these are not important. The important thing is that they know that the Queen Mother already has Zhu Xuanqi's handle. Of course, just think about it, Zhang Fan went there personally. What is the identity of Zhang Fan who was caught? Since he can get it and hand it over to Queen Mother Li, it will definitely not be a trivial matter, and it will definitely make Zhu Xuanqi drink a pot.

But now, several days have passed since Empress Dowager Li got the evidence, but there is no movement in the palace, and Empress Dowager Li has not said how to deal with Zhu Xuanqi. Zhang Juzheng is inseparable. However, during this period of time, Empress Dowager Li did not say how to deal with Zhu Xuanqi, but Zhang Juzheng still looked restless. She didn't give up, it was just delayed because of Zhang Juzheng.

Presumably Zhang Juzheng was still restless, waiting for Zhang Fan to come back. However, after so many days, Zhang Fan still did not show up. Van is in trouble.

However, leaving aside what these people in the court are thinking, they are not the only ones who are waiting for Zhang Fan’s return in the capital, but Zhang Fan’s family members are the ones who are most eagerly looking forward to Zhang Fan’s return. .

Zhang House.

Think about it, this is not the first time that Zhang Fan is not at home for the New Year. Of course, I didn’t say it before. At that time, Zhang Fan and his mother Zhao were dependent on each other, so naturally they would not leave home, but since Zhang Fan entered After becoming an official, this kind of life began to happen. Of course, the Zhang family at this time was not just Zhang Fan and his mother, but also accompanied by his daughter-in-law and his grandson. When Zhang Fan is not at home for the New Year, he will not look so lonely, but for a mother, no matter how many people there are in the family, she still hopes to have a family reunion.

This year is much more lively than the time when Zhang Fan was not at home for the New Year, not only because there were a few more people in the family, Zhang Fan's uncle's family also celebrated the New Year here, which really made Zhang's house a lot more lively .

Mrs. Zhao also likes her cousin's family very much. Speaking of which, the most troublesome thing for an official in the court is the problem of relatives. Fortunately, Zhang Fan's uncle's family is easy to do business with. They are all divided and will not cause any trouble. The most important thing is that even though the family has a semicolon in the capital, it is also because of Zhang Fan that no one will take the initiative to find them. As long as they don't seek trouble from others, they will be able to live in peace all the time.

Moreover, the jade wares sold by the Zhang family are extremely exquisite in terms of appearance and workmanship, and when they did not come to the capital to open a semicolon, the jade wares sold by the Zhang family were also rejected because of their excellent appearance. The palace has taken a fancy to it, and now, with such a relationship with Zhang Fan, when the palace wants to decorate the palaces, besides considering those antiques, the most important thing is naturally the ones sold by the Zhang family. of jade.

Of course, if you do business with the palace, the profits are actually very scarce, and sometimes you have to lose a lot in order to manage one or two. Even with Zhang Fan as the backing, there are many gossips in the palace, so you can avoid those troubles , that is of course good.

However, after doing business with the palace for a long time, this reputation naturally rose, and those wealthy businessmen in the capital, and even some officials and eunuchs, came here more and more attracted by their reputation.

However, the Zhang family didn't start to make crude products because of this. On the contrary, they became more and more refined, in order not to cause quarrels with others, and not to smash their own signs.

In short, this year's Zhang Mansion, although Zhang Fan is not around, is more lively, and Zhao Xue is finally pregnant, which makes Zhao even more happy.

Apart from Mrs. Zhao, the ones who miss Zhang Fan the most are naturally Ru Xue and the others. As the people Zhang Fan loves, they miss Zhang Fan deeply, but this year, they most hope that Zhang Fan will come back sooner. , we must count Zhaoxue.

Originally, Zhaoxue lost to Yingyue head and shoulders, but this time, she finally felt proud and conceived Zhang Fan's flesh and blood before Yingyue. Although she lost so many games, she just won this one. It's nothing to say, but the match that Zhaoxue won is extremely crucial, Zhaoxue is naturally extremely happy in her heart, while Yingyue is extremely disappointed.

Yingyue even began to worry that something was wrong with her, but in the past two years, she has searched for countless famous doctors and eaten a lot of expensive medicinal materials. If it wasn't for Zhang Fan's comfort, she might still go to the doctor in a hurry. Maybe it will damage your body if you eat it.

And after Zhaoxue was pregnant, Yingyue was very disappointed.

Zhaoxue was very happy at the beginning, and even showed off in front of Yingyue, but the next moment, Zhaoxue was reprimanded by her sister Ruxue, and after that, she also noticed Yingyue's loss and understood It was a little too much for me.

Although Zhaoxue is competitive, she is a straightforward person, wrong is wrong, right is right, maybe the standard of right and wrong is only her own, but once she realizes that she is wrong, she dares to admit it, so After seeing Yingyue like this, Zhaoxue immediately went to apologize to Yingyue.

And Yingyue didn't blame Zhaoxue for anything, she naturally accepted it readily. Yingyue's real loss was not because Zhaoxue was pregnant with Zhang Fan's child before her, but the most important thing was that Yingyue felt for herself. lost.

However, Zhaoxue's apology also had a huge effect. At the very least, the two got better again. The original "competitive" relationship made the relationship between the two of them very good. Now Zhaoxue took the initiative to lower her Naturally, the two of them have become good sisters who can talk about everything, which also makes Yingyue temporarily forget about those unpleasant things. Although she still thinks about this matter when she is alone, at the very least, It is much better now.

Now, the two of them stick together all day long during the day, and even at night, the two of them sometimes lie on the same couch, talking about secret words in the boudoir until both of them fall asleep.

Zhaoxue is pregnant, and it has only been about four months until now, but obviously, the members of the Zhang family have become extremely attentive to Zhaoxue being able to conceive Zhang Fan's flesh and blood. There is no serious problem at all, but they still let Zhaoxue take a lot of rest.

Zhaoxue, who is active by nature, couldn't resist her family's persuasion, so she had to do this, but it was going to drive her crazy. Fortunately, Yingyue accompanied her every day to relieve her boredom.

However, as time went by, Zhaoxue missed Zhang Fan more and more. After all, in her current situation, she should have such thoughts. Although Yingyue was by her side, Yingyue was not Zhang Fan after all. Although he was with Yingyue very much, he hoped that Zhang Fan would be by her side, care about her, and take care of her.

However, there is still no news from Zhang Fan today, and he doesn't know when he will come back.
