marquis of jingan

Chapter 654 When will I be punished?
Time passed day by day, and soon came the 27th of the first month of Hongde's tenth year.

Shen Yi decided to leave Jiankang on the 29th of the first lunar month and return to the south to do the finishing work of the coastal strategy. That is to say, there are only two days left for him to stay in Jiankang.

Before parting, Shen Yi hosted a banquet in Guiyun Building and invited Zhang Jian to drink.

The two brothers exchanged cups, Zhang Jian toasted Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "Yesterday the Qi people sent people over again, it must be that we killed their envoy Zhou Yuanchui, several Qi envoys in Germany There was a lot of noise in the Qing Palace, and the momentum was menacing."

Da Chen's court meeting is once every tenth day, but because the court only started to work on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and the court just started in the first month, there are many things in the court, so in the first month, there is a big court once every five days.

Yesterday was the day of the Great Court Meeting.

Seeing the smile on Zhang Jian's face, Shen Yi knew that the people of Qi should have suffered a disadvantage in this grand court meeting. He smiled and said, "How does Your Majesty react?"

"I am the sixth-rank official."

Zhang Jian rolled his eyes and said, "Sixth-rank officials don't participate in the court meeting, Ziheng, you, a fifth-rank official who is qualified to participate in the court meeting, came to ask me instead?"

Shen Yi took a sip of his wine and said with a smile: "I have no position in the court, and I don't know whether to stand in the Ministry of War or the Imperial Academy when I go. These two yamen probably don't look particularly pleasing to the eye, so I won't go. You're asking for trouble, so you might as well hide at home."

"Brother is caring."

"Mr. Yang and Mr. Zhao, why are there no movements?"

Zhang Jian thought for a while, then smiled and said: "It seems that I have to run around more, maybe in the future, I can share a share of the family property equally."

At his age, not to mention illness, even if he suddenly disappeared, it is reasonable in this age.

He has a humorous personality, and often there is a joke between two or three sentences. Shen Yi is used to it. Hearing this, he said with a smile: "Then I have to walk around. A disciple is a son, and a nephew is also a son. Compared with Senior Brother Song, Let's get closer to Master."

Shen Yi shook his head slightly and said, "I really don't have the energy to pay attention to the north."

The two chatted for a while, Shen Yi suddenly remembered something, and asked: "By the way, I have never heard of the Yang family or the Zhao family when I have been back to Jiankang these two times. Why did these two families suddenly die down? Have settled down?"

Master Shen touched his chin, his heart moved slightly.

"What I'm talking about is that in the future, we brothers, no matter what, we have to share two shares of our mentor's family property!"

Zhang Jian laughed and said, "In a year or two, she will be in her early twenties, and she will be an old lady!"

"A wealthy family, who is willing to marry this shrew?"

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, then said with a smile: "However, yesterday's court meeting was indeed very satisfying. His Majesty questioned the Qi envoy, asking where Zhou Yuan was dying, why he died, and where is his body."

"Song Ying, the son-in-law of my mentor's family."

Zhang Jian said leisurely: "Hongde suffered a whole year of defeat in seven years, and the Zhao family's daughter beat you in Jiankang that year, so the Zhao family didn't take the lead, especially..."

Speaking of which, the two brothers clinked glasses, and Zhang Jian continued: "The people of Qi have been arrogant for decades. A few years ago, they dared to shout loudly in the hall of our Da Chen. Today, when asked by His Majesty, they didn't even say a word I dare not say."

"I've been busy with things in the southeast these few years."

He snorted: "At the beginning of last year, this guy followed his father to the north and entered the Huaihe Navy. Even the so-called victories of the Huaihe Navy last year..."

It seems that the Zhao Clan has slowly begun to transfer power.

Well…

"Brother, you are well-informed."

Zhang Jian clinked a glass of wine with Shen Yi, and smiled casually: "It's natural to go to the teacher's place for a walk during the holidays, but there are too many on weekdays, and I'm afraid that Brother Song will feel uncomfortable."

Zhang Jian took a sip of wine and let out a hey: "The people of the Zhao family will suffer retribution sooner or later!"

That's really two words.

Seeing that Shen Yi seemed to be thinking about something, Zhang Jian added another glass of wine to him, smiled and said, "Tell you something interesting."

"The Zhao family has kept a low profile in the past two years."

Can the fourth generation of the Zhao family be passed on to the fifth generation...

Shen Yi said in a low voice: "If he is really sick, it will be top-secret news, it is impossible to spread it, and it is even more impossible to spread it to the folks."

The two brothers talked about being able to joke, and then slowly got back to the topic. After Zhang Jian coughed, he continued: "There is also the Zhao family that Ziheng asked..."

"It's not clear."

"This is retribution!"

Zhang Jian lowered her head and took a sip of the wine, her tone was a little helpless: "People go to cool the tea, but in the officialdom, the tea cools faster."

For the age of marriage in this era, he is somewhat uncomfortable, but the two brothers gossip together, so naturally they have to agree.

Shen Yi accompanied him with a glass of wine, shook his head and said, "Uncle Zhao, you won't be affected by that Senior Brother Song."

"The news that even you can hear, senior brother, is mostly spread on purpose by them."

Zhang Jian laughed.

Zhang Jian looked at Shen Yi, and said, "Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Industry, has been transferred from a member of the Ministry of Officials."

Calculated, Zhao Zhuo is already the fourth generation of the Zhao family.

Shen Yi shook his head slightly: "Brother, this idea is wrong."

"The Northern and Southern Dynasties confront each other."

"It's mostly on this guy's head. In just one year, this guy has already become a thousand households of the Huaihe Navy."

Shen Yi came back to his senses and said with a smile, "What's interesting?"

Shen Yi thought for a while and asked, "Is it very sick?"

This age, among the emperors, has already exceeded the average life expectancy.

From the sixth of the six departments, to the official department of the first department, although it is a flat transfer without promotion, the secret authority may have been promoted by more than one level!
Shen Yi smiled dumbly: "It's not surprising that my son-in-law, Uncle Zhao, is using his strength."

Speaking of this, Zhang Jian's voice became softer, and said in a low voice: "It is said that Emperor Qi is ill..."

"Uncle Zhao is not that kind of a philistine. The two elder brothers of the Zhao family are also good-natured. With Uncle Zhao, the senior brothers should walk around more when they have time, and don't lose the relationship."

Zhang Yi'an chuckled: "Especially after you, Ziheng, created an anti-Japanese army in the southeast, the Zhao family became more honest. I heard that they won several battles last year. As for the Zhao Zhuo you mentioned."

Shen Yi touched his nose.

Shen Yi said with a smile: "Then the Yang family, weren't they quite proud before?"

Zhang Jian reached out to add a glass of wine to Shen Yi, and said helplessly: "Other fifth-rank officials are absent from the court meeting, but they will be recorded by the official department, and you are the only one who can be lazy like this."

"But the news about Emperor Qi's serious illness is enough to just listen to it. I don't think it should be taken seriously."

Zhang Jian asked with a smile, "How do you say that?"

"makes sense."

"The fourth girl from the Zhao family."

He said helplessly: "I don't even want to go to my mentor's place, lest people say I cling to my mentor."

Zhang Jian curled her lips in disdain.

Zhang Jian said with a chuckle: "I don't have to worry about getting married, but most of the time I can only marry the retainers and generals."

Master Shen said with a smile: "Even if you don't go to the court meeting, isn't it as if you saw it with your own eyes?"

Zhang Jian said mysteriously: "However, I heard that last year, I didn't go to court for half a year. I don't know if the rumors in Yanjing are true or not."

After all, the first emperor of Da Chen died in his thirties.

He pointed to his nose, and said helplessly: "Isn't being a brother an example? In the past, being a brother also had some status in Jiankang. Wherever I went, people called me Mr. Zhang. Now you are willing to talk to me except Ziheng , who else cares about me, the little Taichang Temple Minister?"

"I think so."

"The Qi people were speechless when asked."

Shen Yi frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder and said, "Senior brother, there are many people here, you've been drinking too much."

Zhang Jian didn't think so, his face was flushed, he shook his head and said, "They want to listen, but I don't believe him Miss Zhao Si, can you break into my house and beat me up?"

Master Shen said slowly: "Maybe, he wants to test Da Chen's attitude and His Majesty's patience."

Zhang Jian was obviously very happy, and couldn't help laughing: "So far, I'm still in my boudoir, and I haven't married yet."

"With Zhao's family background, she has no worries about getting married."

"In Jiankang's family, no one dares to marry her into the door."

He looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "I only heard the news from hearsay, but Zi Hengyi, who manages the mansion newspaper department under his command, and often deals with the inner guards, has he never heard about Yandu?"

When Emperor Hongde came to power, the emperor of the Northern Qi Dynasty was almost 45 years old. By this year, he was nearly [-] years old.

He did drink too much, stood up unsteadily, looked at Shen Yi, and said in a low voice: "Ziheng, tell me... when will the Zhao Clan be punished?"

Shen Yi was silent for a while, raised his glass and drank a glass of wine.

"I want to come..."

"It won't be too far..."
