The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

"Have you heard? Today in the city, the nephew of Zhang Yuan's family is taking a concubine." In the city of Yangzhou.Several beggars gathered together.Chatted about this topic in a very boring way.

"It's just marrying a concubine. There's nothing to make a fuss about. The son of Mr. Wang in Shanghui City got married. That's a spectacular sight." A beggar next to him said disdainfully.

"Go away. What do you know?" The man who spoke replied to him very dissatisfied.Then he said with a longing look on his face. "I went to see it in person early this morning. That scene. I grew up so old, but I have never seen it. What about Mr. Wang's son getting married. The scene is incomparable."

"I have never seen the world. You are not like me. You are a flower. Anyway, I had some money back then. But even so. I have never heard of the time when the concubine of the family would make the son of Mr. Wang get married. It’s a big scene.” The beggar seemed to have had a good time.

"It's fine if you don't believe it." The person before saw that there were still many people waiting for him to describe the situation at the scene.There is no time to argue with him. "Although I have been a flower child since I was a child. But in this world, people like me are the most knowledgeable. If someone gets married, I can't enter this compound. At most, I can see if I can see some texts in front of the door. Happy money. Or just waiting for the leftovers at the back door. But this team of picking up and sending off relatives can’t deceive people. It depends on this to know how the wedding is going.”

"Hey. I'm talking about Xiao Wuzi. Don't talk to Zhang Datou anymore. Tell me quickly. What's going on." Someone beside him couldn't wait.Quickly urged.

"Then I'll start talking." The little five probably listened to too many storytellers.It also whetted the appetite of others.Especially the big-headed one who was arguing with him earlier and seemed to know.In the end, when he was discovered by himself, he quickly turned his head away.He is very satisfied. "If you want to talk about the nephew of this member. That's a big deal. He is the new loyal and brave uncle of the court, and he has the title of Prince and Taifu."

"What is the title of Prince and Taifu?" asked someone who didn't understand.

"I've heard of this." Someone hurriedly offered a treasure nearby. "I heard that this Taifu is Mr. He teaches. Isn't the Taizi Taifu the one who teaches the Prince?"

"No way."

"impossible."

"How old is this member. His nephew is already teaching the prince."

"That's right. I heard that those who teach the crown prince are all... big scholars. They are all gray-haired old guys."

"Don't you believe it. I heard it from a poor man. The nephew of this member is Zhang Fan. I heard that he was No. 1 in the imperial examination last year. He is a champion. Naturally, this knowledge is no problem. And I also heard Say he won three yuan in a row." The gentleman in the private school of the little five sons.Said shaking his head.Although he didn't know what the "three yuan in a row" meant.But what does Zhuangyuanlang represent.He does know.

"Really." Someone asked right away.After all, they had only heard of the word champion in the mouth of storytellers in the past.Although I also listen to others now.But this is much more real and exciting.

"Of course. My little fifth son never tells lies. Unless the poor man lied to me. But I think what he said is true. Who in this world dares to make fun of Zhuangyuan Lang." The little fifth son said naturally.It was very self-satisfied in his expression.

"Then what kind of young lady did this master champion marry? How does she look like?" Someone asked quickly.Sure enough, this is the topic they are most interested in.

"I heard that she is the sister of Eunuch Liu Shan, the guard eunuch in the city." The fifth son said.

"This eunuch still has a sister." Someone asked immediately.

"Fart." Little Wuzi knocked him on the head once.Looking at him like a fool. "Eunuchs don't have sons. Who stipulates that eunuchs can't have girls."

Seeing everyone's suddenly enlightened expressions.Xiao Wuzi's self-confidence swelled up again.continued. "Today I'm waiting at the door of Zhang Yuanwai's house. Although I know that this concubine will not spend wedding money. But I heard that Eunuch Liu's sister is called Shui Ling. I went to see it."

"Then did you see it?"

"I see. That appearance, that face. It's even more beautiful than that girl Chunyue, the number one girl in Lichun Courtyard." Xiao Wuzi said.His eyes were a little out of focus.I don't know where my mind went.

"My brothers and I have seen Miss Chunyue before. There really is someone prettier than her." Immediately, some people didn't believe it.

"That's natural. In that words. It's just... It's just a fish falling into a wild goose. It's a moon-shame flower." Xiao Wuzi said proudly.

"Really." Someone asked again immediately below.

Little Wuzi didn't speak.He just nodded in confirmation.

"Fart. Those married women all wear red hijabs. Where did you see that?" The big head heard this.It seems a little unconvinced.Immediately countered.

"That's right. Little Wu. You're not lying to us, are you?" Someone immediately followed suit.

"You're the one who farts." Xiao Wuzi seemed to be insulted.Pointing to Zhang Datou.Said angrily. "It's said that Zhang Yuanwai's nephew married a concubine. How can a concubine enter the door with a red hijab?"

Listen to what he said.The big head stopped talking.And the person next to him also showed such an expression.

See the expressions of everyone.Little Wuzi's heart was full of joy.It seems to be celebrating another big show of his own.But when he wants to say something again.A little Hanako came and interrupted him.

"Little Gouzi. I didn't see that I was telling these people about Zhang's marriage. What kind of trouble did you come here to make trouble." The interrupted Xiao Wu seemed very angry.

"No. Little Fifth Brother." Xiao Huazi, who was called Xiao Gouzi, was running out of breath.Still can't care less.He said it quickly. "That Zhang Yuan's family is distributing food. I heard that there is still meat. It seems that there will be money for it later."

"real."

"Little Gouzi. If you dare to lie to me, I will beat you later." A man said to Xiaogouzi while running.How can other people have the time to speak.They all ran in the direction of the Zhang family.

Seeing that the people who were originally for me are now gone.Little Wuzi felt a little abandoned.Even Zhang Datou, who had been extremely disdainful to him before, heard that there was food, meat and money.He also ran to Zhang's house immediately.Not even anyone to laugh at him.But the next moment.Little Wuzi came to his senses.After all, your own face is not important.The important thing is to fill your stomach.

This is what is happening in various places in Yangzhou City today.The situation is more or less the same.But they all have a common purpose.That is the gate of the Zhang family.

This was also what Zhang Fan asked Zhang Yufang to do.It is said that even the money came from Zhang Fan.certainly.The money naturally came from Liu Shan and other officials.Zhang Yufang didn't quite understand the reason why Zhang Fan did this at the beginning.If you just want to give alms.when not.Had to wait until this time.He also asked Zhang Fan why.But Zhang Fan didn't tell him.The reason why he did it.In fact, it is also to play a play for Liu Shan.

now.The banquet in the Zhang Family's courtyard is still going on.It is said that it is now halfway through the application period.But these people are still very good.This dish is really meticulous.It was Zhang Yufang who specially asked the first-class chef in Yangzhou to prepare it.It cost a lot of money.But no one eats much.Most of them are catching wine and pouring it into their stomachs.The wine Zhang Yufang prepared was also of the highest quality.He just knew it was going to happen.The wines bought are relatively light.If it weren't for this wine, it would be really good.Someone below has long been unwilling.But that's it.Some people were drunk and helped to the guest room to rest.The two carts of wine that Zhang Yufang had prepared were almost exhausted.But I still have to think about the night.This is not.He then told his son Zhang Yan to go and buy more.

Both inside and outside the Zhang Mansion are very lively.But the so-called complementary.There are naturally quiet places here.In a relatively remote wing room in the Zhang family compound.Although you can still vaguely hear some lively scenes outside.It's pretty quiet though.

in the room.Zhang Fan and Liu Shan sat opposite each other.They were all drinking tea there.right.Not a product.It is simply drinking.Although both of them knew control just now.Don't drink too much alcohol.But there are still many people coming up to toast.Although some people don't want to respond very much.But because of today's special circumstances.Had to laugh and raise a glass to drink.This is not.Now the two of them ran here to hide.Sip strong tea to drive away the alcohol.certainly.The two of them sat here not just to drink tea.Rather, there are many things to talk about.

"Master Zhang. No. Now I have to change my name to brother-in-law. But for some reason, my family's name is really wrong. Let's use the title of an adult." Liu Shan was obviously lowering his posture when he said this.Tell Zhang Fan that he can be regarded as his subordinate now.Want to get Zhang Fan's approval.

"What Eunuch Liu said is true. It's not that Zhang Fan is hypocritical. It's not that this brother-in-law can't say it. It's really awkward." Zhang Fan followed him. "We'll call each other that in private from now on."

"Okay." Liu Shan didn't have any embarrassment.directly agreed.Then he said. "Master Zhang is the groom's official today. Why don't you accompany the guests. Bring our family here."

"Eunuch Liu. We are celebrities and don't speak in secret. Zhang Fan invites you to come here. What do you want to say? Compared to Eunuch, you know it better." Zhang Fan took another sip of tea.The tone is a bit natural.But the eyes are only staring at a piece of tea floating in the tea bowl.

"It's because our family is hypocritical." Mr. Liu said in announcing the crime. "I heard that today, Mr. Zhang is giving alms to beggars in the city. Presumably this is what Mr. Zhang meant."

"Not bad." Zhang Fan said without interest. "I, Zhang Fan, want to climb up by any means. Presumably this is what Eunuch Liu wants to see. And to climb up. In addition to making meritorious service, you also need to be appreciated by His Majesty. If you can have a good reputation. Do you think this is better?"

"Okay." Liu Shan said with a smile.Liu Shan was really happy in his heart.The so-called famous.This false name is also fame.A well-earned reputation is a good reputation.As long as it has a good name.Who cares if you did it on purpose.And such Zhang Fan.It is exactly what Liu Shan needs.

"Let's not talk about this anymore." Zhang Fan put down the tea bowl in his hand.Looking at Liu Shan, he said. "Zhang Fan has something serious to discuss with his father-in-law."
