Chongzhen's open life

Chapter 362 Stabilizing the situation until the end
"Father! What are you doing?"

There was Zhou Yufeng's questioning voice from the other end. Although he didn't come closer, seeing his father, it didn't seem like he was getting along with the guests in harmony.

Zhou Kui's complexion changed, and he immediately stuffed the money into his arms, then greeted his daughter with a smile, and explained with a smile: "This guest insists that I help him with the fortune telling. Although I am impatient as a father, I still can't bear it in the end." Watching him leave in disappointment, I made a little fortune for him, my father didn't even want to pay for it, but he insisted on giving it, so my father had no choice but to accept it."

But Zhou Yufeng said with a puzzled look: "But my daughter saw that the guest's face just now didn't look like he had made a fortune and left satisfied."

But Zhou Kui said with a straight face: "Hey, what is your daughter's housekeeper doing so much, because my father calculated to her that he has a financial disaster, it is natural for him to be in a bad mood, it is not surprising."

Although Zhou Yufeng was still a little strange, but he didn't come forward just now, and he didn't know the specific situation. Looking at his father's expression that he didn't want to say more, he couldn't ask any more questions.

Now that the meal has been delivered, she is about to say goodbye to her father and go back home. There is still a young brother who needs to be taken care of at home. Suddenly, a person walks by from a year ago. Seeing it in a daze, there is only a bang, and a bulging purse falls on the ground. on the ground.

Seeing this, Zhou Yufeng was taken aback for a moment, and then was about to speak, but suddenly realized that a black shadow flashed in front of him, and his father had already picked up the money bag on the ground and was about to stuff it into his arms.

After Zhou Yufeng saw it, her eyebrows frowned, and she said, "Father, this is a money bag that someone dropped. How can you keep it for yourself? Take it out quickly and return it to that person."

But Zhou Kui said indifferently: "Your daughter, what do you know every family? You don't steal or rob for your father, you just pick it up on the ground. That person didn't realize that this is a windfall bestowed by heaven on your father. For fathers, keep your voice down, lest you startle that man.

This money bag is bulging. I think I have a lot of money. I don’t know how hard it is to support your father and your siblings. With this money, our family can live a better life. "

What Zhou Kui said seemed to make sense. If ordinary people saw that their father said that, even if they disagreed, they could only keep silent and acquiesce. After all, the money seemed to be a lot.

But Zhou Yufeng was different. Due to his personality, he ignored his father's sophistry at all, and scolded directly: "My lord father, a sage is not ignorant of collecting money. How can we ignorant of other people's money? This is not what good people do. My daughter really Absolutely impossible to ignore.”

After saying that, disregarding Zhou Kui's slightly menacing eyes, he opened his mouth and said loudly to the young man who lost his wallet just now: "Young master, you lost your wallet!"

The young man who was walking suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at his waist, and shouted: "My purse is really gone!"

Hastily walked back in three or two steps, looked at Zhou Yufeng and his daughter and asked, "Miss, can you see where I dropped my purse?"

Zhou Yufeng looked at Zhou Kui. When things got to this point, Zhou Kui had no choice but to reach into his bosom to take out the purse, and handed it over reluctantly, saying, "No, here is your purse. The old man saw it fall just now, so he kept it for you for a while, otherwise it would have disappeared long ago."

Zhou Yufeng showed a satisfied look.

The young man took the purse, checked carefully that it was indeed his purse, and immediately showed joy. He opened the purse and took out a ten tael of silver from it and handed it to Zhou Kui, saying, "Old man, thank you for helping me find the purse. These ten taels of silver should be my thank you gift, please accept it quickly."

Zhou Kui, who thought he had lost his money, was overjoyed when he saw that there was money in the money. He was about to take it, but was pulled by Zhou Yufeng who was on the side. When it comes to the money bag, how can such a trivial matter be accepted by the young master, the young master should take it back."

The young man persuaded him a few more words, but Zhou Yufeng still insisted, but the young man had no choice but to leave, but the voices of thanks continued.

After the young man left, Zhou Kui ignored his daughter with a dark face, but Zhou Yufeng ignored her. Her father was good at everything but was too greedy for money. I want to take ten taels as a thank you, there must be fraud in it, how can I accept it.

Who knows what kind of purpose that person has, but there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

All of this was clearly seen by Zhu Youjian and others who were located above the Yuelai Inn. After a while, the young man who had just lost his purse walked up quickly and explained the conversation he had just had with Zhou's father and daughter. The lecture was given to Zhu Youjian and others.

After listening to his narration, Zhu Youjian immediately smiled and said: "It seems that my daughter-in-law still has a good personality, but the future father-in-law doesn't seem to be a good match, so I have to be more careful in the future."

Li Rushou agreed with a smile, but the little girl beside him said, "Hmph, if it wasn't for the beauty of the young lady, Brother Zhu, would you tolerate such an uncle?"

Zhu Youjian suddenly showed an embarrassed but polite smile.

This brat, why don't you just tell the truth, isn't the adult's world a bit hypocritical?
……

A long time has passed since I went to Zhengyangmen that day, and the world has come to the end of the twelfth lunar month.

The end of the year is approaching, and there are more and more affairs in the court. All the yamen are very busy, and they have to finish the things in the hands of their departments before the annual rest.

The cabinet's memorials these days have piled up even more, and as a last resort, Zhu Youjian, the emperor who fished every day, was pulled back by those old guys crying and shouting to review the memorials together.

Seeing how a group of old guys in their [-]s and [-]s were crying bitterly, Zhu Youjian couldn't continue to fish, so he reluctantly tried his best to deal with things together.

And the new garrison of Xiping Fort was also sent down. Zhang Chengye also made up for the lack of deputy garrison because of his assistance in quelling the situation. The culprit of Xipingbao returned to the capital.

As court officials, Zheng Fangping and Xu Yongda dealt with it according to the law. Only Xu Bensheng, a child of the Xu family, Zhu Youjian, did not know how to deal with it. After all, this guy was related to the Xu family in the southeast, so he was locked up first. The sky prison was strictly guarded.

And just one day before the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, news suddenly came from the frontier that several major generals in Liaodong had died quietly, causing the entire Liaodong frontier army to be unstable, but the result of the investigation was that dead objects were poisoned It was an accident that someone did not poison him. It is said that a puffer fish dish was made when several generals gathered for a banquet. As a result, the puffer fish was not handled properly, and the entire army of several generals was wiped out.

This incident was later called the massacre of puffer fish by good people, which reminded the majority of groups who like to eat puffer fish, and the trend of eating puffer fish was greatly curbed for a while.

Since all the dead were at the top level, the middle and lower rank officers were all fine. Soon under Zhu Youjian's order, Xiong Tingbi, who was protected by him, was appointed as Liaodong's governor and crown prince Taibao went to Liaodong with a large amount of military pay and food. With just a few days of effort, this veteran general stabilized the turbulent Liaodong military as easily as if he had come at his fingertips, which made Chaotang heave a sigh of relief.

Regarding this, Zhu Youjian couldn't help but sigh with emotion, Jiang is still old and hot, and the existence of such veterans is like the Dinghai magic needle in the Ming army.

At the same time, I am very proud of my decision to go against my own strategy of keeping a low profile and protecting this veteran.

So far, amid all the hustle and bustle, the last day of the seventh year of Apocalypse...
