Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 726 The Signal of Comeback

Ji Gang had to lose his composure, because Shen Wansan was so famous.

A folk proverb in the Ming Dynasty said: "Shen Wansan in Nanjing, a dry willow tree in Beijing, the name of a person is the shadow of a tree."

Shen Wansan is from Nanxun Town, Huzhou. Of course, he doesn't have any "treasure pot". In fact, Shen Wansan made his fortune, and he also started from farming at the beginning. Land and became a famous big landlord in the south of the Yangtze River.

Later, Lu Daoyuan, a wealthy businessman from Wujiang in Fujiajiang left, became a monk and donated all his assets to his friend Shen Wansan. Shen Wansan doubled his wealth.Since then, he has started to engage in overseas trade, taking advantage of the convenience of the Baiyan River connecting the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in the west and the Liuhe River in the east, to transport silk, ceramics, grain and handicrafts from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to overseas.

The huge profits from doing business made him quickly become the number one rich man in the country. When the people in the south of the Yangtze River rebelled against the Yuan Dynasty, he got a chance again. First, he funded the most powerful Zhang Shicheng. The symbol of the God of Wealth.

After Zhu Yuanzhang won the world, this kind of wealthy family became an inevitable target. In the sixth year of Hongwu, Shen Wansan was charged with unfounded charges and sent to Yunnan. He died of illness not long after, and all his family properties were confiscated.However, the Shen family is really rich, and some of the family property that was hidden a little before can still allow the Shen family to gain a foothold in the south of the Yangtze River.

However, as soon as one loses one’s bad luck, bad luck will follow one after another. In the spring of Hongwu 19, the Shen family got into a lawsuit because of land tax disputes. Shen Wansan’s two grandsons, Shen Zhi and Shen Zhuang, were thrown into prison. Shen Zhuang died in prison that year. middle.

In the 31st year of Hongwu, Shen Wansan's son-in-law, Gu Xuewen, was implicated in a rebellion case again. Gu Xuewen's family and six members of Shen's family were "sent away on the same day", more than [-] people were killed, and their family property was once again confiscated. Once, the Shen family really fell into disrepair.

Shen Wendu knew that because of his father Shen Wansan's incident, the Shen family had been branded with a certain political symbol. If the Shen family wanted to rise again, it would not be enough to be able to do business. All the remaining treasures were taken out, and they ran to the city of Nanjing to find a way out.

In fact, it was not Ji Gang that Shen Wendu wanted to defect to at first, but Yang Xu.Yang Xu is the Duke of the state, and he is especially prestigious in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is also Yang Xu who vigorously promotes ocean trade, which suits Shen Wendu's appetite.Taking advantage of the good opportunity of the birth of the young master of Fuguo Gongfu, Shen Wendu also mixed in with the gift-giving crowd and ran to the Yang family to give gifts.

The gift he gave was too heavy. Naturally, the steward of the Fuguo government couldn't treat him as an ordinary person, so he immediately reported it to Xia Xun. When Xia Xun heard it, he didn't know him at all. It was an ordinary friend who had business dealings with those shops of the Yang family, so he met him in person.

As soon as he explained his identity and purpose of coming, Xia Xun flatly refused, and kicked him out even with the gift.Shen Wendu was greatly disappointed, but unexpectedly ran into a fortune teller. When the fortune teller first started talking, he thought it was an ordinary means of soliciting business, but the fortune teller fully explained his background and the prosperity and decline of his family. Accurate, Shen Wendu couldn't help moving his mind, so he asked the fortune teller for advice.

He turned to Ji Gang because he was instructed by the fortune-teller. After he came to Beijing, he also heard about the grievances between Duke Fu and Ji Gang. Naturally, it is absolutely impossible to tell people about this experience. .In fact, even if Ji Gang and Yang Xu are still friendly, it is impossible for him to mention this matter. You choose someone else first, and they don’t accept you, so you settle for the next best thing. Am I that bad?Of course Shen Wendu would not make this mistake.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, because of Shen Wansan's name, Ji Gang did not take Shen Wendu lightly, and when Shen Wendu explained his idea of ​​taking refuge in him, Ji Gang felt very happy.

Ji Gang is now mainly collecting money from the capital, but there will be a lot of inconvenience after all under the eyes of the emperor.He had just stretched out his hand outside Beijing. Chang Yinglin, the prefect of Huzhou, was the first money-making machine he cultivated. As a result, Chang Yinglin was hacked by Xia Xun, and he hadn't found a suitable agent yet.

With the Shen family's good means of doing business back then, Ji Gang had no doubts about Shen Wendu's ability to raise money. As for the fact that the Shen family was feared by the royal family and was constantly attacked, Ji Gang felt that it had been so many years, and the Shen family was completely out of control. Being dilapidated was also nothing to him, so he agreed without hesitation.

Ji Gang accepted the generous gift from Shen Wendu with a smile, and then instructed Shen Wendu to be his agent, go back to the south of the Yangtze River to help him raise money, and settle any troubles encountered in the officialdom by him.With Ji Gang's temperament, he is not willing to do business and make money, so the points raised by Shen Wendu are unavoidably illegal.

Shen Wendu's billion-dollar family fortune in those days is now in dilapidation, and he can't wait to get rich again. He naturally understood Ji Gang's instructions, and immediately catered to Shang's wishes, and proposed many ideas. Ji Gang was overjoyed and agreed to them one by one. This formed a close business partner.

Zhu Neng's burial place was finally determined. According to Qin Tianjian's performance, he chose it on Beize Mountain in front of Beizhai Village, Huairou County, Beijing Prefecture, and released the captive Annan people. From then on, he became Duke Cheng for generations. Guard the grave.

Most of the civil and military officials did not understand the emperor's burial of his highly regarded Cheng Guo in the distant Beijing mansion. The only reasonable explanation can only be: General Zhu once guarded Beiping with the emperor. The heroic spirit of the general continued to guard the northern border for Daming.

Only Xia Xun, after hearing the news, looked at the map with reference to Qin Tianjian's explanation from Feng Shui, and understood in his heart: "The emperor's intention to move the capital has been decided! Even the place of his own tomb has been secretly decided!"

Beize Mountain is located in the same mountain system as the Ming Tombs in Changping County. According to the geomantic theory of the Ming Dynasty, the location of the Ming Tombs is the head of the dragon, and Beize Mountain is the tail of the dragon. Fengshui is really good. Zhu Di buried Zhu Neng there. After a hundred years, the monarch and his ministers will still stay together.

Standing in the hall, the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, Zhou Yun, reported to Zhu Di: "...Qin Tianjian has sent people to the Beijing mansion to choose an auspicious time to break ground and build the tomb."

Zhu Di nodded, Zhou Yun paused, and said again: "Ninety-nine Chongyang Festival is coming soon, this is the list of sacrifices drawn up by the minister, please have a look at the emperor." He presented a list with both hands.

On the day of Zhu Yuanzhang's death, there must be a big sacrifice, and for other ancestor worship festivals, it is up to the emperor to decide whether to hold a big sacrifice or a small sacrifice.Two days ago, he had asked Zhu Di for instructions. Zhu Di said that this year's small sacrifice, in addition to the royal family, it is enough to bring a few close officials, and asked him to go back and draw up a list. The place, naturally you can not bring it.

Zhu Di said "Hmm", took the list, glanced through it hastily, and asked, "Why is there no Yang Xu? Is there any conflict between his zodiac sign and horoscope and the mausoleum?"

After the Bailian teaching case, the emperor seemed to be a little estranged from Fu Guogong, and many officials had tasted it.However, the news that the young master of the Yang family had sealed General Wu De at birth has not yet spread, so no one knows that the emperor's attitude towards Yang Xu has changed again. Zhou Yun didn't add Yang Xu to the list, and it was him Trying to figure out the result of the favorite, I don't want this flattery to be photographed on the horse's legs.

Zhou Yun murmured: "Uh..., no..., I just want to... oh, Duke Fu's family just had a happy event..."

Zhu Di understood, glanced at him and said, "What does this have to do with paying homage to the late emperor? Plus!"

Zhou Yun quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, yes!"

Zhu Di glanced at him again, and said indifferently: "Just do your job well, don't think about it, don't meddle in it!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Zhou Yun quickly agreed and retreated, and stood still in the corridor, covered in cold sweat.

The back house of Fuguo's mansion is full of shade.

In the small building, Ming'er was taking a nap with her son.

In the garden, a few little girls were laughing and chasing after them, like butterflies wearing flowers, flashing into this field of flowers from time to time, and coming out from there again.

These are five little girls, and Tang Sai'er is the leader.

Originally, Tang Sai'er, his mother and Granny Qiu went to Xia Xun's mansion to deliver wedding cakes to celebrate the birth of the little grandfather. While the adults were talking, the children played together, and they hit it off right away.Xia Xun was also very happy to see that they got along so well. After Tang Saier was an old friend, Xia Xun didn't want her to be a magician for the rest of her life at such a young age, so she told the lady of the Tang family to ask her to practice kung fu. Besides, he came to the mansion every day to study with Si Yang and Si Xun.

If there is a better development, the lady of the Tang family certainly does not want her daughter to be registered as a member of the Yue family. After agreeing, Tang Sai'er became a regular visitor of the Yang family.

Tang Sai'er is one year younger than Xia Xun's eldest daughter, but with them, she seems to be the leader of the children. In just a few days, the four young ladies of the Yang family have obediently become her subordinates and are under her command. He never tires of watching this and that, even Siyu, who is the most thoughtful and the most difficult to manipulate.

Sitting in the small pavilion, Xia Xun listened to the singing of birds, smelled the fragrance of flowers, watched them play with a smile, and thought, "It's no wonder that you can be the leader of the rebel army and do such great things with a daughter. Talented!"

Xia Xun was feeling emotional when the second manager tiptoed over, stopped outside the pavilion, and said with a bow, "My lord, just now the Qin Tianjian sent a message. Tomorrow, the ninety-ninth Chongyang, I want my lord to accompany the royal family to pay respects to Xiaoling Mausoleum!"

"Oh?"

Xia Xun's expression changed when he heard this.The former emperor made an order to name his son an official. Ming'er had already told him that he knew about the special difference between him and him. Hearing this order today, Xia Xun felt even more certain in his heart: "This is only one Moon Kung Fu, will I be out of the cold palace?"
