The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

After leaving Longqing's imperial study room, he had a cordial conversation with Feng Bao who was waiting outside the door, and Zhang Fan went to the East Palace to visit Zhu Yijun.

He didn't know how many times he had walked this road, and he had already learned it by heart.While walking, I couldn't help but think of the conversation with Long Qing.To be honest, after receiving such a large-scale reward from Longqing, it would be a lie to say that Zhang Fan was not at all excited.But he also had other thoughts in his mind, what is this?Is it legitimate corruption?No, after all, it was authorized by Long Qing, the Son of Heaven, but what would those ministers think when they found out?Another Yan Song?No, they dare not, what will Zhang Fan's identity be then?The title of the third-class earl in the name of loyalty and bravery, Fengtian Yiyun's sincerity, and the crown prince and Taifu are also leading the Jinyiwei, who dares to challenge him!However, Zhang Fan felt that he was only in his early twenties this year, but he was a little worried that he would show his sharpness too much.But he let go of his worries, as long as he was not prepared to seek rebellion, the two generations of emperors Long Qing and Zhu Yijun would surely keep him rich and safe for the rest of his life.

Thinking of these, Zhang Fan has already entered the East Palace.Zhu Yijun was very happy to see Zhang Fan, and pulled him to ask questions.Seeing his concern, Zhang Fan was moved but not impatient, and told about the distress.In addition to the thrills, Zhu Yijun and a group of eunuchs and maids around him were sometimes nervous and sometimes excited following Zhang Fan's narration.Especially when Zhang Fan talked about Li Yingyue, he didn't intend to hide it, he just said it out.Zhu Yijun was very moved when he heard that, and although those little maids are used to seeing the warmth and warmth of people in the palace, they still have girlish feelings. Yearning for such a love, they can't help but envy Li Yingyue for meeting such a handsome young man like Zhang Fan , looking at him with affectionate eyes.Zhang Fan turned a blind eye, but it made them admire him even more.

"Teacher." Zhu Yijun shouted, he had wanted to call Zhang Fan that way for a long time, and now he could finally say it openly, "Father told me, is the Taifu going to Jiangnan after he recovers from his injuries?"

"Exactly." Zhang Fan said, not surprised that Zhu Yijun knew about it.

"Unfortunately, the south of the Yangtze River described in those poems and dictionaries is so beautiful, but I have no chance to see it." Zhu Yijun was a little disappointed, but suddenly he looked happy, and said, "Why don't I also ask my father to let me and the Taifu go together?" Go to Jiangnan to play."

Zhang Fan liked Zhu Yijun very much, but Zhu Yijun pestered him so much that he was a little embarrassed, and said, "I'm afraid this is not good, the emperor sent his ministers there not for pleasure, but for business."

"What does it matter?" Zhu Yijun said with some dissatisfaction, "Would it be possible that my going will hinder the work of the Grand Tutor?"

"Of course you will get in the way if you go!" Zhang Fan said in his heart, but he also patiently enlightened him: "The emperor sent his ministers there this time to check the tax and find out those corrupt officials. If His Highness goes down, those people must It's not easy for the minister to check if he is timid and timid."

It’s not that Zhu Yijun doesn’t understand these things, he can lose his temper for a while, and suddenly asked: “How is sister Ru Xue doing? Then the Japanese Palace went to the Taifu’s house and saw that Ru Xue was in a trance. Neither respond."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern. The minister's wife has already recovered." Zhang Fan was very grateful for Zhu Yijun's concern.

"That's good." Zhu Yijun said, but suddenly his expression changed again, and he said, "Judging from what the Grand Tutor said just now, I must take that Li Yingyue as my concubine. The Grand Tutor can't disappoint sister Ru Xue."

Zhang Fan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he heard his words, and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, Ru Xue is my first wife, and I will definitely not let her down."

After leaving the palace, Zhang Fan returned home, and after visiting his mother and his wife, he met Zhaoxue on the road, and the two met very awkwardly.Seeing Zhaoxue's hesitant expression, Zhang Fan really didn't know what to say, so he got into Yingyue's room beside him.

Seeing him avoiding her, Zhaoxue couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, and secretly made up her mind to take the initiative next time.Although this is a bit embarrassing for the daughter's family, Zhaoxue has never been a character who can't hide things.She had been secretly in love with Zhang Fan for more than a year, but she kept it in her heart for the sake of her sister's happiness, and she was very happy to say it in front of her sister that day.She also has to grasp her own future now, and can't just watch happiness slip away from her.

Entering the Yingyue Room, Zhang Fan closed the door and let out a sigh of relief. The look in Zhaoxue's eyes just now made him a little overwhelmed.After calming down, he realized that he had entered Yingyue's room.

Yingyue can't move now, but her spirits are much better. Lying on the bed, she looked at Zhang Fan with interesting eyes, and she also guessed the general situation outside just now.

"Why, Brother Fan was not afraid of the fierce Tartar cavalry that day, but now he is afraid of a little girl!" Yingyue teased him with a teasing voice.

Hearing this, Zhang Fan was a little embarrassed. He came to her bed and sat down, and said, "My dear Yue'er, don't make fun of me. She is my sister-in-law. If you really let me...you tell me What should Ru Xue and their father say in front of her?" In fact, Ru Xue had already agreed, and he said this only because of Chen Wenchuan.

"I don't believe you haven't thought about it in your heart." Yingyue said, "All of you men are duplicity. You say you don't want to, but you don't know where you have thought in your heart. Hypocrites!"

What she said made Zhang Fan very embarrassed, thinking that he is a big man, and now his official career is prosperous and prosperous, how could he not have thought of these things in his heart.It's just that the current Zhang Fan really has some sour and bad temper as she said.However, in front of Yingyue, a woman who lived and died with him, Zhang Fan took off all the masks with peace of mind, making him feel that being with Yingyue was more relaxed and real than being with Ruxue.

Seeing her teasing face, Zhang Fan got up his courage somehow, put his hand dishonestly into the quilt, and touched her body.Yingyue felt his mischievous hand, and her face was slightly rosy, but she didn't refuse, and said: "Look at your anxious expression, if I knew you were like this, how could this girl enter your house."

"Now you are a sheep in a wolf's den, and you can't escape if you want to." Zhang Fan smirked, and couldn't help turning over and pressing on her body, but he was afraid of touching her wound, so he put one hand on the bed and said, "I said, I'm married to you. The emperor ordered me to be in charge of Jinyiwei. If you dare to run away, there is no place in this world that can hide from my eyes."

"I won't run away. Although I feel aggrieved by following you, it's good." Yingyue argued, but stopped talking and asked Ailang for a kiss.

Seeing his charming appearance with his eyes slightly closed, Zhang Fan stopped pretending to be a gentleman, and began to kiss her with his lips covered.But not long after, Zhang Fan stopped.

Yingyue knew the reason, she felt Zhang Fan's hand touched her bandaged wound.Caressing the wounds left to protect himself, Zhang Fan was very distressed. Looking at Yingyue's jade face, he couldn't help asking, "Does it still hurt?"

Yingyue shook her head submissively, and said, "I'm afraid that I will leave a scar and make you hate it."

"No, how could I hate it!" Zhang Fan said, "These scars will only make me love you more." After speaking, the two kissed again.

These days, Zhang Fan did not appear in the sight of civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, but occasionally attacked Zhu Yijun to talk, or went to the teacher Zhang Juzheng's home to have a chat with him.Now that Xu Jie has become an official, Zhang Juzheng's road to reform has no obstacles, but Gao Gong's reinstatement, although he will not oppose Zhang Juzheng's reform, it is just that Gao Gong now wants to clean up those who have different political views from him, and Longqing does not join him. Control, so that everyone in the court is in danger now.Zhang Juzheng also had no plans to implement it immediately.

Among the four cabinet ministers, Guo Pu and Gao Gong wore a pair of trousers; while Li Chunfang was a good old man who neither offended others nor kept a distance from him; the remaining Zhang Juzheng was quite upright in the eyes of courtiers, People who feel threatened now come to him for help.It's just that Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong had an agreement that they would not interfere with his action of purging political opponents, but he was too embarrassed to refuse them all, so he had to complain to Longqing, hide at home and refuse to see guests, and only a few cabinet ministers and Zhang Fan could do it. into the mansion.

Several cabinet ministers could not count on it, so those people turned their attention to Zhang Fan, hoping to get in touch with Zhang Juzheng through him.Now is the time for Zhang Fan to recuperate from his injuries, so the front of the Zhang Mansion is full of people, many ministers come to "visit" Zhang Fan in person, even some high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and all ministers are no exception. With generous gifts, he even brought his daughter to Zhang's mansion directly.Zhang Fan really wanted to keep these women, but seeing Zhaoxue's expression of killing these pretentious foxes, he had no choice but to give up.But when Zhang Fan made it clear that he was helpless, these people still left the generous gifts they brought and left with the woman who was regarded as goods, which made Zhang Fan very troubled.

However, this situation has recently changed.A few days ago, Cheng Guogong Zhu Xizhong asked Long Qing to resign from his position as the commander of Jinyiwei, saying that he was too old and tired, and wanted to go home and play with the younger generation to take care of his life.Long Qing then accepted his resignation with "grievance" and "nostalgia", and immediately appointed Zhang Fan as the commander of Jinyiwei.Jinyiwei was the secret service agency of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty to supervise all officials, and these people were going to "visit" Zhang Fan with courtesy, and the current spy chief, wasn't he looking for his own death?Only then did Zhang Fan calm down.

At the beginning, some ministers were dissatisfied with Long Qing's decision, but Jin Yiwei belonged to the emperor's personal guard, and the appointment of commanders was entirely based on the emperor's preference. No matter how hard these people tried, they could not shake Long Qing's determination, so they had to give up.

In March, Zhang Fan's injuries had already healed, and even Yingyue could walk freely.What the two of them suffered was not a serious injury, even though it was serious, it was just a skin trauma. With the addition of careful conditioning and the support of many precious medicinal materials, they are no longer serious.Now Zhang Fan has completely mastered Jinyiwei. After all, he is a holy family member, and those colleagues and other officials below also know that Long Qing likes Zhang Fan very much.Wang Meng's injury was almost healed. Zhang Fan wanted to be promoted to his official position, but he refused. He still wanted to be Zhang Fan's guard. Zhang Fan was moved and rewarded him with a lot of money.

At home, Mrs. Zhao liked Yingyue very much. Although Zhang Fan and Ru Xue were married not long ago, she was also very happy to have more daughters-in-law and give birth to more fat grandchildren.On the contrary, Zhaoxue was slightly hostile towards Yingyue. After all, her sister was married to Zhang Fan, so it was impossible for her to be jealous of her own sister.But for Yingyue, who has established a relationship with Zhang Fan, the little girl feels a sense of crisis. After all, there are many people, and Zhang Fan's love for her will be divided. In addition, Zhang Fan always hides from her, Zhaoxue was very annoyed.

Day by day, the emissary of An Da came to the capital again, to discuss the location of the mutual market with the Ming court.The leader is Alda's eldest son Huang Taiji who had a relationship with Zhang Fan once.
