"I have long heard that Li Xunchang, the Yin of Shuntian Prefecture, has close contact with Zhang Siwei. Now it seems that this matter must be related to him. Huh, I have nothing to do with Zhang Siwei for the time being, but Li Xunchang usually His talents are mediocre and his governance is chaotic. Not to mention anything else, he just talked about the settlement of the capital and the relief of refugees, and he made a mess. I originally thought about the overall situation and didn't want to fall out with some people, but now I have to I'm going to take advantage of this to take action on Li Xunchang." Zhang Juzheng probably drank more wine and talked too much. When he talked about Li Xunchang, his face became angry and his long beard trembled.

Fakong chuckled and said: "That's right. Since you intend to reform the world and achieve great things, you should have such a vigorous and resolute momentum."

"Lord Pavilion, please don't be angry with this kind of people. Common people are lucky enough to sit with you. I would like to toast you here, and also to Uncle Fakong," Wu Tianhe said with a toast.

Yang Ning was watching them drink with a smile when he felt his calf lightly touched by a foot under the table. Yang Ning looked in shock and saw Lan Feifeng winking at her again, signaling her to go downstairs.

Yang Ning said hello to Zhang Juzheng and Fa Kong and went downstairs. Lan Feifeng followed her downstairs and then motioned Yang Ning to follow her into an uninhabited room in a remote corner of the fourth floor.

Seeing the cautious look on Lan Feifeng's face, Yang Ning couldn't help but smile and said, "What's going on to make it so mysterious?" As he said that, he felt his face heat up, and he knew it was because he drank too much wine, so I found a chair and sat down.

"Shh," Lan Feifeng put her hand on her mouth and made a silent gesture to Yang Ning. She listened to the noise in the private room next door. After confirming that there was no one next door, she sat on the chair next to Yang Ning. He went up and said solemnly: "Yang Ning, thank you for finding a strong backer like Mr. Zhang for Tianranju,"

Taking advantage of the drunkenness, Yang Ning waved her hands nonchalantly and said: "What does this mean? You know, you are my god-sister now. If I don't help you, who will I help?"

Lan Feifeng's pretty face turned red and she said, "I can't afford to be your father-in-law Yang's god-sister."

"Well, so you don't want to,"

"No, no, I just,,, forget it, don't talk about this, I came to you for business," Lan Feifeng changed the subject.

"What else can be done? I'm fighting for my stomach and intestines. If Mr. Gege is happy, that's the business," Yang Ning said righteously.

Lan Feifeng covered her mouth and said with a smile: "I know you have worked hard and achieved great results, so you don't have to beat around the bush. I want to ask you how much share you think we should give Mr. Zhang in the future."

Yang Ning was stunned. He didn't expect that Lan Feifeng came to him to talk about this matter. He pondered for a while and said: "I think, according to Mr. Zhang Ge's character, I'm afraid he won't accept this job. Don't do it." I thought he was someone like Zhang Siwei, whose reputation for integrity is well-known among both the government and the public."

Lan Feifeng looked confused: "Of course I have heard of Mr. Zhang's name, but since Mr. Zhang said he would make the decision for our natural residence, although he did not make any demands, if we don't show anything, ,I'm afraid that he will feel..."

Yang Ning waved her hand to interrupt her and said: "It's okay. I have already promised him a favor. I will repay him when I have the opportunity in the future. He is indeed not a money-loving person. If I bring it up rashly, it will not be good for him to misunderstand. ,"

After several contacts, Lan Feifeng and Yang Ning have become familiar with each other. Now the two have a superficial sister-brother relationship, so she has less worries when talking to Yang Ning. After listening to Yang Ning's words She said amusedly: "How big do you think your promise can be? It can easily equal such a huge favor from Mr. Zhang Ge."

Yang Ning smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this. The favor I will repay him in the future will definitely be much greater than his favor."

"Bragging," Lan Feifeng said coquettishly with a rare display of a little daughter's attitude. Yang Ning was stunned when she looked at that mature yet cute charm, and her lower body immediately reacted.

Noticing the bulge in a certain part of Yang Ning's lower body, Lan Feifeng's face turned red and she said in a panic: "Let's, let's go up." After that, she turned around and ran out of the private room, and soon Yang Ning heard to the sound of footsteps going upstairs.

Yang Ning rolled her eyes helplessly, damn, do you think you are a pervert?

Returning to the banquet, Lan Feifeng glanced at Yang Ning in a panic, and then changed her gaze. As soon as Yang Ning sat down, Fakong shouted: "What are you doing, you kid? Do you want to escape from drinking? I will kill you quickly." Make up what you haven’t drunk,”

"Just drink," Yang Ning was angry. He picked up the wine glass and drank it in one go. He poured another glass and wanted to drink again. However, Lan Feifeng was a little anxious and hurriedly pulled his sleeve and said, "Yang Ning, why don't you drink?" There are people like you who can drink well,"

Wu Tianhe glanced at Lan Feifeng in surprise, his eyes full of meaning.

Yang Ning put down his wine glass obediently. When he saw Zhang Juzheng, who was already a little drunk, he remembered something and said: "Mr. Ge, I don't know what happened to Shanxi's surrender of Han Naji."

When Zhang Juzheng heard about this matter, his eyes lit up and he said: "I have sent Brother Chonggu back to Shanxi to handle the matter. A few days ago, there was an order for you to go to Shanxi to supervise the matter. Why did the imperial concubine's order yesterday fail? I won’t let you go,”

Yang Ning smiled and said: "There were some changes in this matter. However, I just reported it to the imperial concubine. I will leave for Shanxi in the next few days. I met Mr. Ge today and I just wanted to discuss this matter with Mr. Ge."

There was even a hint of excitement in Zhang Juzheng's expression as he said: "I already know the views expressed by my friend at the Si Li Prison on how to deal with this matter peacefully. Haha, I really see the same thing as a hero. I didn't expect that my friend actually agreed with me." Motosuke’s views coincide with each other,”

Yang Ning said humbly: "How dare you stand up to Mr. Ge? It's just some immature opinions,"

"Why do you have to be so modest, little friend? Ju Zheng has known Ju Zheng for your vision and is even more impressed. Alas, I think of what the little friend said last time at Longfu Temple. Our Ming Dynasty is really unstoppable in a short period of time. There will be another large-scale war, otherwise,,,hey," Zhang Juzheng didn't finish his words and just smiled bitterly.

"Mr. Ge, this matter should not only be handled peacefully, but it is best to use this as an opportunity to reach peace talks with Anda. Only in this way can we ensure the stability of our Ming Dynasty's northern border and allow our people to recuperate and gain precious time to grow stronger again. ,"

"Yes, if everyone in the court is as far-sighted as my little friend, there is no need to worry about this matter. However, there are always some short-sighted people who insist on singing the opposite tune. They will always be willing to cause chaos in the world," Zhang Juzheng borrowed. Being drunk, he slapped the table and said angrily.

Yang Ning said nonchalantly: "No matter what these people do, I will definitely wait and see the opportunity when I go this time and try my best to promote this peace negotiation."

Zhang Juzheng nodded and said: "Okay, I will write to Brother Chonggu when the time comes and ask him to fully cooperate with you."

Yang Ning understood this clearly. It seemed that Wang Chonggu and Zhang Ju were on the same path.

Yang Ning and Zhang Juzheng chatted some more about the details of handling the surrender of Han Naji. The more they chatted, the more speculative they became. Monk Fa Kong and Wu Tianhe chatted about Jianghu affairs and it was also very lively. Kong was so happy that he gave some pointers on some martial arts problems on a whim, which made Wu Tianhe extremely happy.

The meal lasted until dark, and everyone dispersed. Zhang Juzheng left in an eight-carriage sedan chair. Fakong returned to Longfu Temple alone, while Yang Ning came out and turned north, approaching the nearby Go to the house.

The temperature dropped sharply tonight and was much colder than yesterday. Yang Ning drank a lot but also felt quite chilly, so he turned into Jingmaoer Alley and walked quickly towards the door of the house.

When he reached the door of the house, Yang Ning had just stepped up the steps when he caught a glimpse of a figure hiding behind the stone lion at the side. Yang Ning was startled. His first reaction was that there was an assassin. He immediately shouted vigilantly: "Who?"

The black figure stood up, very thin, and made a trembling voice, "My benefactor, it's me,"

Yang Ning heard the voice sounded familiar, but couldn't see clearly the appearance of the black figure. He couldn't help but walked closer. After a closer look, he finally recognized the person. This was not the man who was seen by Tianranju at the door of Tianranju that day. The stubborn kid named Yue Feng that the guy beat up?

"You are Yue Feng," Yang Ning blurted out.

The thin figure knelt down with a plop, and said with some surprise: "My benefactor still...remembers me, me," his voice was obviously trembling, presumably from the cold.

"Hey, Xiao Yue Feng, it's you, get up quickly, what are you doing?" Yang Ning helped Yue Feng up, but his tentacles were cold, presumably because Yang Ning could feel Yue Feng's Wearing only a thin shirt.

"You kid, why are you here in the middle of the night? You're so cold. Didn't I give you money last time? Why didn't you buy some more thick clothes?" Yang Ning said, touching Yue Feng's face again. , the tentacles are also cold.

"Benefactor, Yue Feng came to seek refuge with you. I used all the money you gave me to treat my mother's illness, but... she still couldn't be cured. She, she... I have lost all my relatives. No more...wow," Yue Feng said with choked sobs, and in the end Yue Feng couldn't help crying.

Yang Ning felt sad and hurriedly comforted him: "Don't cry, don't cry. With a filial son like you, your mother will feel at ease when she leaves. Come on, let's go in first. From now on, Brother Yang will be your relative."

He led the crying Yue Feng into the courtyard. Han Shanlin and his daughter, who heard the noise, had already walked out of the west courtyard. Seeing this, they hurriedly said: "Sir, what's going on? Who is this little guy?"

"Uncle, don't ask anymore. Let's boil some water for this child to take a bath quickly, and then find him some warm clothes that fit him well. Look at him, he's frozen into chaff," Yang Ning urged.

"Hey, that's good, Yu Niang, please hurry up and let someone boil the water, and I'll go find some clothes," Han Shanlin agreed neatly.

After a long day of work, Yue Feng took a hot bath and put on new clothes. Although the clothes didn't fit well, they couldn't hide the boy's handsomeness, which made Yang Ning feel jealous.

Han Yuniang adjusted Yue Feng's clothes and stepped aside. However, Yue Feng knelt down in front of Yang Ning and said, "My benefactor, if you can take me in, Yue Feng, please accept Yue Feng's respect." As he said this, he would bend down and kowtow.

Yang Ning hurriedly went to help him and said: "What's the matter with you boy? There is gold under the man's knees. When he dies, he will kneel down and kneel to his parents. Why do you always kneel to me?"

Yue Feng's smart eyes looked at Yang Ning and said: "My benefactor, Yue Feng naturally understands that a man has gold at his knees, but my benefactor first did not think Yue Feng was despicable, and gave me money to treat my mother's illness and bury her, and now he takes me in. My benefactor is so grateful to me." It is my kindness to rebuild, Yue Feng must thank you,"

Seeing Yue Feng's look like a young adult, Yang Ning couldn't help but said with a smile: "I rescued you in Tianranju because you have some backbone, and I'm taking you in now because you are homeless and you are always ready to get off. "Kneel down, I'm angry. There are some things that you can just think about in your heart. There's no need to care about these superficial things."

"Yue Feng thanks my benefactor for your teachings," Yue Feng said, immediately stood up from the ground and said respectfully.

Yang Ning waved her hand and said, "You don't have to call me a favor or benefactor. It sounds awkward. Just call me big brother from now on."

"Yes, Brother Yang," Yue Feng said obediently immediately.

Yang Ning smiled slightly and said: "Yue Feng, listening to you talk, it seems that you have read books before,"

Yue Feng looked gloomy and said: "I have learned some words with my mother since I was a child..." After all, it is the nature of a child. He thought of his deceased mother when he said this, and tears flowed out of Yue Feng's eyes again.

This boy is really a filial son. He was beaten so violently by the Tiantianju guys that day without even seeing him shed tears, but now he is so sad when he talks about his mother.

"Yue Feng, you can stay here with peace of mind. I may not stay at home often. If you need anything, just tell Uncle Han and your sister Yuniang that the past things are in the past, so don't think about it anymore. After a few days, I will ask Uncle Han to arrange for you to go to a private school. You still need to read this book. Learning knowledge is very important."

A trace of gratitude flashed in Yue Feng's eyes, and he saluted Han Shanlin sensibly: "Uncle Han," and then said to Han Yuniang: "Sister Yuniang,"

Han Shanlin thought that he also liked Yue Feng's cleverness and well-behavedness, so he smiled and nodded, while Han Yuniang's face turned red and she nodded lightly in response.

"Okay, it's getting late, everyone, let's take a rest," Yang Ning yawned. After another day of hard work and drinking so much wine, he was really tired.

Yue Feng has lived in Yang Ning's house since then. This kid has a sweet mouth and is diligent in his hands and feet. After a while, no one in Yang Ning's house dislikes him.

Long Qing's illness had been going up and down in the past two days, and some political affairs were handled by the cabinet. Yang Ning was impatient to wait, so he went to Concubine Li and asked her to send him to Shanxi. Concubine Li was reluctant to leave him, and delayed it day after day. In the end, Yang Ning couldn't resist Yang Ning's persuasion and finally agreed to let him go to Shanxi.
