Chapter five hundred and fifty-four scheming, like a wolf like a tiger

~Date: ~November 02~

,nbsp;Zhang Cai and Tang Yin waited in the study together.

This is where he often hesitates. He can always sit calmly and wait slowly. In addition, Tang Yin talks about some poetry and articles, time passes quickly. However, this time he couldn't sit still, paced back and forth on the ground with his hands behind his back, and his eyes swept towards the door from time to time, but every time the curtain was motionless. Until he felt that he was too impatient to pace back and forth like this, and was patiently planning to sit down, he suddenly saw one hand pulling up the curtain.

"Sir...ah, it's the old man!"

Although Zhang Cai was disappointed, he still raised his spirits to salute. Tang Yinze, who was beside him, helped explain: "Master, I just came back from Xianyuan and met Lord Zhang in front of the door. Lord Zhang said it was important to ask for a meeting, so I accompanied him here to wait. Since the old man came, I will take his leave first."

"Well." Xu Liang knew that Tang Yin had never cared about this, so he nodded immediately. When he left the house, he smiled, "It's not me who is a man who is a lie. It's really Xun'er who came back with Jiutianchiyi. He just arrived last night and hadn't had a good rest. Today he was summoned to the palace by Xuan. When he came out, he went to the arm building to serve him again. He couldn't hold on when he came back. Now he was sleeping so hard that he didn't know the situation. Even if he forced him to get up, he was afraid that his mind would be confused and he couldn't think about it and could not figure it out. So, if Lord Zhang had something to do, he would tell me. I took a leave at home today and told him back."

"The old man only asks me to call me Shangzhi, but I really can't afford this call."

Seeing Zhang Cai quickly got up and said humbly. Although Xu Liang knew that Zhang Cai was a few years older than him, he nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I will call you Xilu like Xun'er. My son is better than my father. You haven't seen him come back today. If I hadn't held him on my feet, I would have fallen asleep halfway through the journey. So, although I never care about his business, I have to interfere in this time."

Zhang Caiyuan wanted to go back for the time being, but when Xu Liang said such sincere words, he thought that the man was Xu Xun's father after all, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Since the old man said that, I can only disturb you. To be honest, I came here specially today for the assassination of the adult on the way back this time. I heard that the adult ordered the ban. But there were rumors in the capital today, which was terrifying. If we don't suppress it at this moment, I am afraid that Eunuch Liu will think that it was the adult who secretly instigated public opinion. Now, it is best to find a scapegoat immediately, otherwise the censor who was forced to suppress it by Lin Shangshu Zhang Duxian and others. I am afraid that he will seize this opportunity to attack Eunuch Liu, and they will tie it up to the carriage."

Last night, Xu Xun had only time to tell his wife that Xu Liang had just learned that Xu Xun had been assassinated again on the way back, but in front of Zhang Cai, he suppressed this inexplicable feeling and scolded Xu Xun half-death in his heart. But after Zhang Cai finished speaking, he immediately said: "Xun'er once said that Xilu is good at making plans and making decisions. Who do you think you should attribute the assassin to?"

"Baoke!"

Xu Liang was surprised when he heard this. A few months later, the bandits in the Kinki area were in full swing. Although they did not hurt the important places of the county, prefectures, the rumors among the people were already quite fierce. He thought that Zhang Cai should have given them the excuse, but he never thought that Zhang Cai would say the word "名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名名�

"First, although there are many small victories in this time when I went to Shaanxi, it is not so eye-catching than the rebellion of King Anhua. Those small victories are not so eye-catching at first glance. Therefore, there were many dissatisfactions in the capital before, from the Yuanfu Li Dongyang, the cabinet minister. Many people held objections, even the same as those of Lin Shangshu and others. If the enemy provoked openly, this matter would be different. And as long as it is promoted, it can be seen that this time the prince returned to defeat the third prince, equivalent to the Balsborot of the Mongol father Khan. In fear, people even sent to assassinate the adults, which was obviously afraid of the adults as if they were like tigers. In this way, the adults' reputation would be at its peak."

Speaking of this, Zhang Cai paused and thought for a moment before continuing: "Second, it is attributed to the fact that the bandits are simple, but the court will have to dispatch a large number of troops to suppress the bandits next. Compared with the use of troops to prepare for the border, the troops will be dispersed invisibly. What's more, the bandits and thieves are prepared for this and they will lose the opportunity to make intentional and unintentional. Third, the suspicion of Eunuch Liu can be cleaned up for the time being, and I think he will breathe a sigh of relief."

Xu Liang suddenly realized and nodded immediately and said, "Okay, if Xun'er heard what you said, she would definitely agree. Let's do this as you said in Xilu. I will tell Xun'er back."

"Thank you for your trust!" Zhang Cai was afraid that Xu Liang would look back. Seeing that Xing'an Bo had entrusted the major matter to him so happily, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. While standing up, he bowed and said solemnly, "In addition, when the lord wakes up, please tell me. Now it is different, and it is hard tolerate two tigers in one mountain!"

Seeing Zhang Cai show off his favor, he stood up and said goodbye. Xu Liang was reluctant to send someone to the entrance of the study. Seeing that the person left, he stood there for a long time and then silently returned to Xu Xun's huge study room and sat down on the large Huanghuali armrest chair of Xu Xun's Changchu. I thought that just a few years ago, he was a poor water drawer under the Dazhong Bridge in Nanjing, but now he has everything. After all, it was because of his own coincidence that he had a son like Xu Xun. But while being rich and glorious, the price was also considerable.

The son is traveling for thousands of miles away and the mother is worried... In the Xu family, the son is traveling for thousands of miles away and the father is worried. The wife is worried. That boy is a restless person in the capital, and there are also constant troubles outside. Now, this time, is there going to be a storm?

As he thought about it, Xu Liang finally stood up and went to see Shen Yue in person for instructions. Then he asked someone to go out quietly. Three or five cavalrymen left Wu'anhou Hutong, and someone had already followed him quietly. The information quickly spread to the private house of Liu's family in Shajia Hutong like water.

"After Zhang Cai left, Xu Liang went to the Shouning Marquis Mansion?" Liu Jin, who asked for leave today, raised his eyebrows, and then sent the person who reported the news unhappily, and snorted, "Let's go back and give me instructions, and stared at Xu Liang. My son, hero, I pussy. The ones he had a little close contact with the capital were some famous generals, even the Shouning Marquis, but he was polite to him because of Xu Xun's relationship. Xu Xun never let him get involved in those important matters on weekdays. Instead of putting limited hands on him, it's better to pay more attention to Zhang Cai, even Tang Yin is more useful than him!"

Since Wang Ning died suddenly, although Si Lijian was Liu Jin's personal personalities, it was no problem to respond, but there were no people like Wang Ning who could understand his feelings and give ideas. If he hadn't been afraid of changing his past, he would have dared to leave the palace for half a step, so he would have returned to this private house. Now that Xu Xun has returned, he has calmed down and so he asked for leave to come back with ease. At this moment, seeing that Zhang Wenmian and Sun Cong were both looking eager to speak, he whispered impatiently.

"If you have something to say, we are not the one who can't hear any advice!"

Then Zhang Wenmian spoke respectfully: "Father-in-law, the student thinks that Xu Xun is not a person who is eager for quick success and instant benefits. When he was assassinated on the way back, he must know that he is not his father-in-law's envoy..."

Before he finished speaking, Liu Jin sneered at the sneer: "Of course he is not stupid. I don't know if someone frames him or her, there will be a ghost! But since this matter has been done, I have to find an explanation. For those guys who don't deal with our family, our explanation is naturally the most ideal. The emperor doesn't believe it, so he let those guys who are chattering and only clamoring make trouble. If there is one, we will clean up the other one. It's hard to say the discipline of Xu Xun!"

Seeing that Zhang Wenmian's reminder was not on the point, a smile flashed in his eyes, and then he bent down and said, "Dude-in-law, Xu Xun just came back. If he really wanted to make trouble, he would have torn his face in front of the emperor before. Just taking a few dead people, it shows that he thought he could not match his father-in-law's favor. What's important is those decrees of his father-in-law!"

Although Sun Cong had a lot of flattery, Liu Jin had no smile on his face. When he heard the words "Political Decree", his expression suddenly turned sharp. Liu Jin was not a short-sighted person like Wang Zhen, but only knew that appointing private people to desperately seize power. History was written by those literati, so it was important to win over a large number of officials under his command. Those rules that had been used for hundreds of years, those rules that only civil officials could participate in politics, and those political decrees drafted and implemented by them are the foundations of civil officials. What he had to do was to destroy these examples and become the highest supervisor with the help of the emperor's power.

"No need to say these light words!" Liu Jin waved his hand impatiently, and then ordered in a deep voice, "Tonight, let Jiao Fang, Liu Yu, Cao Yuan and others come here!"

When Xu Xun woke up in a daze, he found that the lights were already in the room. He raised his hand thoughtfully and put it on his forehead. Then he felt his stomach croaking again, but he was a little hungry. He called out to the person who came, and saw a head leaning in and looking at it for a while, then he retracted and screamed. Then Shen Yue put the curtain into the room. He said weakly: "Madam, get me some food. I can eat even a cow now!"

"Come on, who told you to show off last night?" Shen Yue knew that Xu Xun was powerless at this moment, so she deliberately poked Xu Xun's chin with her fingers. Seeing that her husband was so helpless that she was teasing her, she burst into laughter, "I asked again before my father left, and the porridge had been paused for a long time in the morning. I just let Ruyi take it. You lie down honestly and I will feed you!"

Xu Xun was about to ask where his father had gone, and saw Ruyi bringing a steaming small clay pot with a boxwood strip plate, first on the begonia table beside him, and then he put it in a porcelain bowl. He couldn't help but frown. Before he could complain, Shen Yue took the bowl and picked up the spoon and scooped a spoon. He even stuffed it into his mouth without saying anything.

Xu Xun was startled and thought that this time he was afraid that his tongue would be numb, but as soon as the porridge was in his mouth, he felt that it melted in his mouth. He couldn't help but be stunned. Chen Yue, who reached out to take the spoon, just smiled and said, "I'm afraid that you don't care when you are hungry. Then a big bubble will burn in your mouth and it's not easy to see people. So every time you spend a while on the fire, keeping warm, everything from scallops to sea cucumbers to bird's nest red dates is everything I learned from the British Duke's wife. It was originally boiled sour for the weaned children. As a result, I'll taste it first!"

Hearing this, Xu Xun felt amused and laughed. However, the porridge he probably wouldn't even see on weekdays is now something he urgently needs with his stomach empty. So, seeing Chen Yue only feeding a spoon and then quit, he could only cough dryly and said, "Hey, Mr. Madam is not enough to plug in the teeth, continue!"

Seeing Xu Xun's eyes fell directly on the clay pot. Although she asked herself to feed it, her eyes clearly wanted to swallow the clay pot together. Chen Yue immediately moved her body to block his gaze. He fed him one spoonful after spoonful. After Ruyi served another bowl and fed it together, she stopped. Then she said without doubt: "Okay, I really have to eat it for an hour. I have been hungry for so long, and I will not be able to take it to help me!"

It was hard to explain the reason to the wife, let alone the one who ignored him at this moment. So §xun leaned helplessly backwards, and his ears made a creaking sound in the big bed. He suddenly asked, "When is it now, where has Dad gone?"

"It's almost time now." Seeing Xu Xun's face full of shock, Chen Yue explained with a smile, "As for my father, I went to the Shouning Marquis Mansion. The Shouning Marquis's prince will get married at the end of the year, because the Shouning Marquis' wife saw the daughter of the Cao family and was very satisfied with people ≠ Ning Hou is now very close to her father, and she often drinks, chats and chats."

"Well? The Cao family has entered the capital?" Xu Xun was stunned at first, then slapped his head, "I have forgotten this, so let Cao Qian go back and see his mother and sister!"

"You still need to say it? He came back from outside with a drunken face in the afternoon, so I asked him to go back." At this point, Chen Yue waved his hand to signal Ruyi to go to bed, said what Zhang Cai had seen before, and then recounted the two important words Xu Liang told him to say with some concern. "But, will Mr. Zhang not believe this idea?"

"Jiang Shi Lao's trick is really brilliant!" Xu Xun thought of cheating and forced Zhang Cai to get him. After careful consideration, he knew that Zhang Cai was a trick to count birds with one stone. He felt even more overjoyed. He immediately forgot that he rarely talked about these major events in front of his father and wife. He just lay down and said half-lying, "One of the way, the Shaanxi division is famous, the second is to calm Liu Jin's heart, and the third is that as long as he rushes to connect with each other, this matter cannot be caused. Of course, if someone still wants to go against Liu Jin, I will not be able to control it!"

Chen Yue is not a deep-rooted woman who doesn't understand the matter. At this moment, she raised her eyebrows and then said with a smile: "No wonder you trust Lord Zhang so much. The relationship is because he is like you, with one trick after another. Although Lord Zhang is fifty, he is handsome and handsome. When you are not here, your family is much deserted. Lord Lin and the others come, but Lord Zhang often comes to the door and invites Mr. Tang to go out for a trip. Mr. Tang comes back and says that he met some nobles during the outing. He knows that they are yours, so he called him to drink with him. As a result, the singers they called him all kept flirting with Lord Zhang."

"Haha, did Bohu miss himself? Compared to Xilu, he is even younger. He should be the one who is always close to the singers! Yes, he is now all his wife and daughters, and he was once in a state of trouble. He scared people away without slander, right? As for Zhang Xilu, I remember that at the beginning of the year, he seemed to have just taken a beautiful concubine?"

"It was only half a month before you came back that he had another pet in the room, and his father even sent someone a gift." Although Chen Yue was a little dissatisfied with Zhang Cai's lustfulness, it was someone else's private matter. She gave up after she mentioned it, "But I heard from my father that the emperor summoned Lord Zhang several times, and it seemed that he had planned to enter the Ministry of Personnel."

The Ministry of Personnel is now in charge of Lin Han, and Zhang Cai’s age and qualifications, who was only promoted last year, was naturally promoted to the Ministry of Personnel to be the position of the left and right minister. Although this was a promotion path that Xu Xun had planned for Zhang Cai for a long time, he was still a little surprised when he heard about it. For example, Lin Han, who is still strong now, Zhang Fuhua, an 80-year-old man, is the one who needs help the most in the Censorate. However, from the fourth to the third rank, it is another great step. I missed the emperor’s intention this time, and I don’t know when it will be next time. He pondered over and over again, and suddenly thought of someone in his heart.

Among the four gentlemen in Nandu, Zhang Mao had no idea of ​​inviting him to the court because of the pain of losing his wife and his son, so he had no idea of ​​inviting him to the court. However, there should be a "fly fish" among the four gentlemen in Jiangnan. I remember when he went to invite Lin Han and Zhang Fuhua before, the two mentioned that Lin Junding's mother was mourning at home, and calculated the life, and now she should live her life!

Xu Xun fell into deep thoughts without realizing it. Until his ears hurt, he saw Chen Yue quickly withdrawing his hand. He was so angry that he was about to reach out to pick up the person, but he saw that his wife was already quick to stand up. Then he smiled at him and said, "It's late at night, please rest well. If you are hungry, then call me. There are still people who want to see you tomorrow. Please take good care of your health and don't be as embarrassed as you are today!"

What is cunning and cunning? Xu Xun thought he was the best example. However, at this moment, seeing Chen Yue flashed outside the door, the silver bell-like laughter came from outside, and the sound of lowering his voice and Ruyi talking. He couldn't help but feel angry. He wanted to continue sleeping on his pillow, but he slept soundly in the afternoon. After two bowls of porridge, he felt uncomfortable in the lower abdomen after a short while. So he had to pull his shoes out of bed. He thought that it would definitely be a surprise attack outside, but after he solved it, he quietly left the house, but found that the outside was empty and had to turn around and lie back.

Let’s have a good rest for a night. There are very few such peaceful days!

That night, Liu Jin's private house was brightly lit. Jiao Fang, Liu Yu, Cao Yuan and other high-ranking people, and Li Xian, Zhang Long and others, who have always been following Liu Jin's leader, were all there. After a long talk and loyalty, Liu Jin smiled and looked at the crowd waiting to say goodbye, but the hall was empty, and he asked coldly with a gloomy face: "Has Qian Ning not come?"

Since Xu Xun, the emperor's trust, was deeply trusted by the emperor, most of the military generals were willing to make friends with him, and even Shen Ying, whom he had previously been friends with Liu Jin, Liu Jin naturally attached great importance to Qian Ning, a person who had finally been brought over. At this moment, seeing that no one on the left dared to answer, Zhang Wenmian and Sun Cong also avoided their gazes. He couldn't help but pound the handrail and gritted his teeth and asked again: "Is this guy going to see Xu Xun?"

"It shouldn't be yet." Sun Cong personally sent Qian Ning to the small building Mingyue Shangfenfen, and Qian Ning gave him many benefits later. Therefore, although he knew that Liu Jin was angry, he still tried to say a few good words to Qian Ning, "Don't worry, you may have something to do with the inner factory, and you will not be able to leave for a while..."

Sun Cong and Qian Ning have a good relationship, but Zhang Wenmian looks down on such a person who is on both sides of the rat. Before Sun Cong finished speaking, he sneered: "This guy has always been a temptation to be arrogant. My father-in-law recommended him to be a high position. He will naturally be kind to you, but if Xu Xun showed dissatisfaction, he will definitely run faster than anyone else. My father-in-law, he is not a student, and Qian Ning is not trustworthy..."

Before he could finish his words, a sharp voice from a small fireman came from outside the door: "Father-in-law, Lord Qian is here."

Seeing that he was right, Sun Cong immediately glanced at Zhang Wenmian with pride. However, Liu Jin's face did not improve much. Seeing Qian Ning hurried into the house, he laughed without even waiting for him to salute, "Mr. Qian is so busy. Our family has already sent you a letter. Did you actually wait until everyone else has dispersed before coming?"

"How dare Bei Zhi!" Qian Ning keenly noticed that Liu Jin's face was gloomy, and he seemed to be really angry. He turned his eyes and then knelt down, then bowed his hands and said sincerely, "Dude, Bei Zhi happened to be stuck in an important matter. It was the case of the unresolved imperial Taoist keeping a letter in the middle of March. Bei Zhi had been tracing it for so long and finally got some clues. Although there was no conclusive evidence yet, this matter should not be the complaints made by those civil officials, but the root of the internal officials in the palace!"

Liu Jin was originally planning to teach Qian Ning a lesson and completely eliminated his idea of ​​being able to do everything possible. But after hearing this, he couldn't help but stand up suddenly. After a while, he realized his disobedience and sat down on the handrail, but he still asked in a stern voice: "Who is that bold?"

"It's the East Factory Qiu Juqiufu!"

ps: Try to update as much as possible tomorrow, the number of words is not good to guarantee...
