Idle courtiers

Chapter 295 Never seen such a strange request
After returning to his room, Zhou Nan had already grasped the context of the court struggle in the last years of the Jiajing Dynasty, which was like a puzzle.

This is probably the advantage of the traversers, who are born with a more detached vision than the ancients who were caught in the trap.

Bystanders are clear.

Because of this foresight, he felt that he could control himself and change the fate of those around him.

Excited, so excited that I couldn't sleep.

Early the next morning, Wang Lian knocked on Zhou Nan's door.

"Ah, it's Eunuch Wang. What are you doing here so early?" Zhou Nan yawned, his eyes dim.

Wang Lian looked around vigilantly, seeing that there was no third party, he said seriously: "My lord, our family is your master now, please call me by my name."

"Well, Master Wang, what's the matter?"

Wang Lian: "My lord, we agreed to go to Li's house today. There is still a little distance from here to the capital, so please leave quickly."

"What's the hurry, my lord hasn't slept well yet? We'll talk about it when I sleep well." Zhou Nan yawned uncontrollably while talking, and fell back on the bed to close his eyes.

Wang Lian: "My lord, the business is important."

It is unforgivable to be disturbed and doze off. Today Li Wei's family is going to go. This is the key to bringing down Yan Song and eradicating the Yan Party.But it was inconvenient to have Wang Lian following him, so he had to find a way to get rid of him.

Zhou Nan: "Business, what can be more important than sleeping. I can't sleep well, and I can't do anything. Besides..." He said with a chuckle: "Wang Lian, today's trip is obviously a narrow escape. You Do you think that my lord is the kind of person who rushes to reincarnate? When others go to the execution ground, their heads will be cut off. My lord is sleepy, so I have to sleep, right?"

Wang Lian: "How long is your lord going to sleep for?"

Zhou Nan: "Who knows for sure, let's count as long as you sleep!"

"You, get up!" Wang Lian was furious, and stretched out his hand to grab Zhou Nan's arm, ready to force him.

Zhou Nan's face sank: "Wang Lian, don't forget that you are my master now. Is there such a rude master? I pissed me off, so my lord yelled and ordered someone to beat you to death here. As for At Eunuch Chen's place, it's a big deal for everyone to break up. Anyway, it's a word of death. People don't fear death, so why should they be afraid of death? Master Wang, my lord is hungry. You ask someone to bring some snacks and tea. I eat It’s beautiful, and I’ll wake up naturally.”

Wang Lian also had no choice but bowed: "My lord, wait a moment, I'll call right away."

After going down, Wang Lian waited for more than an hour. Seeing that it was almost noon, he saw Zhou Nan walking out with his hands behind his back.

Wang Lian waited so furiously in his heart that he hurried forward: "My lord, the chariot and horses are ready, please get in the chariot!"

"Where to go?"

"you……"

Zhou Nan laughed: "Master Wang, at this time you should answer 'Western Region'" and snapped his fingers: "Let's go!"

At this time, a book office quickly came over and handed an official letter to Zhou Nan: "Master, urgent business."

Zhou Nan opened the letter and looked, his face changed color.

Wang Lian: "What's the matter, my lord?"

Zhou Nan didn't speak, but got out of the car with a calm face.Wang Lian couldn't control so much, so he squeezed beside him.

The car drove for a long way, and suddenly, Zhou Nan burst out laughing.

Wang Lian was puzzled by his smile: "What are you laughing at?"

Zhou Nan: "Wang Lian, this official is really unlucky! If you come to Baigezhuang all night, I don't have to go to Li's house to die. Time, luck, and fate!"

Wang Lian: "I don't understand."

Zhou Nan handed the official document in his hand to Wang Lian: "This is the official letter sent by the Ministry of Industry to the Military Weapons Bureau today, haha, this officer has also been decapitated?"

Yes, Zhou Nan was dismissed from the position of Acting Ambassador of the Armament Bureau, and returned to the Department of Pedestrians as his pedestrian.

According to the system of the Ming Dynasty, pedestrians and pedestrians are just a brick of a revolutionary comrade, and it is purely errand material to move it wherever it is needed.When there is a shortage of people in the central ministries, they can seconded pedestrians to the department.

If it is used up, the person can be returned without going through the complicated personnel procedures of the official department.

The removal of Zhou Nan from the post of ambassador can be decided by the Ministry of Industry itself.

Zhou Nan has no nostalgia for the position of ambassador of the Military Weapons Bureau.Now that we have found the clues and operating methods of the strict party's capital flow, there is no point in staying here any longer.

It's just that being dismissed like this still feels a bit aggrieved.

If Yan Song is moved smoothly this time, he will have to bargain hard with Xu Jie.

Zhou Nan was just surprised that Yan Dang's actions were so fast.

In Yan Dang's eyes, he, Zhou Xingren, is just a small person. Even if he is the ambassador of the Military Weapons Bureau, it is very easy to be excluded by Li Gao.Moreover, arms manufacturing is only a small part of the military expenditure raised by the strict party, and they don't care much about it.

Unexpectedly, Li Gao couldn't handle Zhou Nan.More than a month passed, and Fujian did not get a single weapon.In this way, it attracted the attention of the top leaders of the strict party.

It's easy for Mr. Xiaoge to intervene in this matter.Mr. Zhou, you are just a small stone, just kick it away.Just return it to the Pedestrian Department with an official letter, and replace him with someone else to be the ambassador.

After reading the official letter, Wang Lian suddenly said coldly: "Zhou Xingren, the conflict between you and Li Gao happened in office, you still have to go to the Li family today, and this time you must finish the errand assigned by your godfather. Don't I thought you were not the ambassador of the Military Weapons Bureau, so I wanted to pick someone up."

His expression clearly suspected that Zhou Nan had done this.

Zhou Nan: "Of course, you can rest assured."

He is very familiar with Li Wei's family, and the concierge of Li's family is also very familiar.

Seeing Zhou Nan, Menzi said coldly: "It turned out to be Mr. Zhou. He didn't come for a few days, but I miss him very much. What's the matter?"

Zhou Nan cupped his hands: "I am working in the same yamen as Young Master Li of your mansion, and they are both superior and subordinate. I have an urgent business request to see you today. I hope you will inform me."

Menzi shook his head: "I went to the yamen on business and said, I'm afraid the eldest son won't see you, get out!"

Li Wei is not yet the head of the state, and the father and son have no titles, so the concierge under him is so arrogant.I don't know, I thought he was the prime minister's family!

Zhou Nan got angry and shouted angrily: "What's your attitude, hurry up and report, if you miss the official business, can you bear it?"

Menzi: "Stop talking nonsense, if you annoy me, no matter what kind of pedestrian or ambassador you are, you will be killed directly! Mr. Zhou, isn't the lesson you have learned from the previous two visits not enough? It's so good that the sores are healed and the pain is forgotten."

He yelled loudly, and several servant-like people walked over with grim smiles.

Zhou Nan gave Wang Lian an apologetic look: "Wang Lian, it's not that I'm not coming, it's because they don't want to see me, what can I do."

Wang Lianxin said: This man surnamed Zhou is so cunning, he intentionally provoked the concierge so that he could be driven away, how could my father-in-law be deceived by you.

He hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, stuffed an ingot of two taels of silver into the hand of the door, and smiled apologetically: "My elder indeed has official business to see Deputy Envoy Li."

This is the first time Menzi has received a red envelope, and his face looks better.Return the money: "Who wants your money, let's go."

Wang Lian continued to increase the price and exchanged it for a large silver ingot of five taels: "It's really important, and I hope it will be convenient."

Satisfied, Menzi put the money into his sleeve and looked at Zhou Nan: "Master Zhou, you really want to see the eldest son, are you not afraid of being beaten?"

Wang Lian: "Not afraid."

"Okay, I'll report it right away, but today, the master and the eldest son are both here. Mr. Zhou rushed to the door to ask for money. I have lived for more than 30 years, and I have never seen such a strange request."
