Chapter 360

Chapter 360 Brewing

"...Huaiqing's Prince Consort, Commander Chen Hui, and...Li Jinglong..."

Xu Zengshou thought about it for a long time and wrote down a few names on his banquet list. The Mochou Lake Poetry and Wine Festival was organized by the Emperor's decree and hosted by the Ministry of Rites, but the place used belonged to the Xu family. The Xu family wanted to co-organize the banquet, so naturally

You can invite some people yourself.

But Xu Huizu did not invite any relatives and friends, because the relatives and friends of the Xu family were either military generals or from a family of meritorious officials, and he had decided to show his kindness to the civil servants. He did not want to give the civil servants a wrong signal: "He is still trying to win over them."

The old ministry tried to counterbalance the power of civilian officials."

Xu Zengshou understands his eldest brother’s intentions. Loyalty is the main premise in his mind. The eldest brother will not give up his loyalty to the court, and this court is Emperor Jianwen in his heart. All actions of Xu Huizu will not exceed the premise of “loyalty”.

However, loyalty does not affect his responsibility to the Xu family. He must find ways to keep the Xu family standing in the court without violating his "loyalty" to the emperor.

Therefore, the eldest brother followed the trend. Since the emperor trusted and valued civil servants, he took the initiative to move closer to them. But Xu Zengshou did not want to maintain the power of the Xu family, but in his heart, power was never

The most important thing is that family and friendship are precious to him, so he is very dissatisfied with his elder brother for abandoning his friends and subordinates who have been friends and subordinates for many years, and even using his sister's marriage as a political bargaining chip.

Although many wealthy families have always done this, and have done so for thousands of years, the daughter's family has always been the link between the powerful and the powerful. And the husband that the sister found under this premise may not necessarily be unable to

He was happy and happily married, but his eldest brother's underlying intentions made him feel chilled.

After the two brothers broke up last night, the elder brother immediately tightened his supervision of the younger sister, as if he was afraid that he would help the younger sister escape from the house. In fact, if the older brother did not do this, he would not encourage the younger sister to escape. The younger sister escaped last time

, his whereabouts have been unknown during the chaos of war, which has made him worried for a long time. If he helps his younger sister escape and escape to a place where his elder brother can't find him, he cannot mess with all the forces related to the Xu family. In that case, he cannot guarantee that his younger sister will escape.

My sister's safety.

He has his own way. Today he specially invited some people to go to the Mochou Poetry Party. The banquet with these people was not only to connect old friends, but also to hope that the appearance of these people in the Xu family could destroy the big brother.

The peacemaking with the civil servants ruined the eldest brother's plan, and naturally there was no need to mention the younger sister's marriage.

He is not a clever politician, but he comes from a wealthy family and has been exposed to the struggle for power since childhood. How can he be a rude and ignorant common man? The eldest brother thinks wishfully that with the powerful position of the Zhongshan Palace, if he likes anyone,

The other party must be flattered by the new Jinshi, and the marriage will definitely be settled. Is this really the case? A Jinshi who has a bright career, but even the princess is not willing to marry him.

He remembered that when he was boating on Mochou Lake with Wang Ning, the consort of Huaiqing, he once heard him say something about Li Shangyin, a talented man in the late Tang Dynasty. It is said that Li Shangyin was not only famous for his poems, but also full of economic knowledge. As soon as he debuted, he was favored by important officials of the court.

He was appreciated and promoted by Linghu Chu. However, after Linghu Chu's death, he defected to Wang Maoyuan, the governor of Jingyuan, and married his daughter.

The two things seemed unrelated, but Li Shangyin's life future was ruined because of it, and he was homeless and never had ambitions. Because Linghu Chu was a Niu Seng Ru ***, but Wang Maoyuan was Li Deyu. So, then

At that time, the two parties, Niu and Li, were fighting for power, and they were equally in power in the government.

Did Li Shangyin follow the trend, or was he a political idiot? To this day, no one knows why he made such a choice. Maybe it was because he deeply loved Wang's daughter. This kind of behavior is considered ungrateful by those in the Niu Party.

He was a despicable villain, and they suppressed him in every possible way from then on; most people in Li's party also believed that this person had both ends, and could not be reused. Li Shangyin's life and future were thus ruined.

Which of those scholars who have won the Jinshi are not full of knowledge and clever ideas? Do they not know these things? Do they know that the civil and military forces in China are currently ebbing and flowing? As long as he cleverly puts on a good show in front of those new imperial examination candidates

The Xu family is still the leader of the military generals. Who dares to risk the ruin of his career and accept the daughter of his Xu family as his wife just for the sake of possible icing on the cake?

He wanted to invite Wang Ning, the consort of Huaiqing. Wang Ning was best at reciting poems and composing poems, and he was an elegant person. He would definitely come to such a grand event with pleasure. After the power of the civil servants became stronger, all the military generals and relatives stood aside.

Well, Huaiqing's consort was originally a close friend of Emperor Jianwen before he ascended the throne, but the third son of King Yan used him to escape from Jinling. At that time, Zhu Yunwen did not care too much about his fault, but as King Yan's power gradually expanded

, constantly winning battles, Zhu Yunwen traced his roots back to his roots, and began not to want to see him.

The reason why Zhu Yunwen was magnanimous at first was because he thought that it would not be a big deal if Zhu Gaochi and others escaped. Even if Yan Ni had no scruples and really rebelled, once the imperial army arrived, it would be pacified in a matter of seconds, so for this

Huaiqing's consort was happy and generous. However, as King Yan won again and again, Zhu Yunqi became more and more frustrated, and he began to vent his anger on Wang Ning. Wang's consort was having a hard time now, and he was also a marginalized person in the court.

.

Wang Ning is the representative of Xunqi.

The Commander-in-Chief, Chen Hui, is also invited. The imperial army in the capital is divided into two groups, the Forty-eight Guards. Chen Hui was originally the Commander-in-Chief of the Twenty-four Guards in the outer field. He is both his old subordinate and his close friend. He is

Branded as a member of the Xu family, the Xu family has stepped aside. Now he has also been transferred from his original position and has been working on an idle job. He has been depressed. This person must be hired, and he must not chill the hearts of the old department.

Chen Hui is the representative of military generals.

As for Li Jiujiang...

There are no permanent allies and no permanent enemies in the world. Li Jiujiang may have been the most powerful candidate to replace the Xu family and compete for the first place in the military general class, but whether it is the Xu family or the Li family who are in charge of the military, only the two of them have changed.

The ranking, power, and military power between families have no harm to the interests of the entire military generals and ministers group. What about now? They share weal and woe and share the same pain, and Li Jiujiang's current situation is even more unbearable than him.

Li Jiujiang is the representative of meritorious officials.

Relatives, military generals, and heroes all appeared at the banquet of his Xu family. Those thoughtful and clever scholars dared to mess with the Xu family and offend Fang Xiaoru and Huang Zicheng, who were prosperous and powerful.

After the list was drawn up, Xu Zengshou read it several times and sneered.

Xu Huizu wanted to use the Mochou Lake Poetry Club to offer his olive branch to the civil servants, but Xu Zengshou was sitting next to him, sharpening his bright and sharp steel knife. Who dares to reach out?

Tomorrow, the Prince of the Queen of Mountains will be invited to attend the Mochou Lake Poetry and Drinking Party, so the Ministry of Etiquette has not arranged any itinerary for him today. The Prince gave his entourage a holiday, and went to wander around the city of Jinling in groups, as far as the Kingdom of Middle-earth.

Come back, who doesn’t want to bring some gifts from China to family and friends? This is human nature.

Xia Xun walked alone by the Qinhuai River for a while, and then sat down in a snack shop at the foot of Jilong Mountain. He ordered a few snacks. Not long after, a big man sat next to him, and he looked much uglier than Xia Xun.

While eating, he took off his shoes, stepped on the bench on the other side with his bare feet, and rubbed them happily. Looking at his miserable appearance, the other diners stayed away in disgust.

Nor would they come to him.

This person is none other than Dai Yubin, the precious son of Lao Dai from Licheng County, who is now the secret agent of Feilong.

Xia Xun said softly: "Call Jiang Mengxiong, Xu Shiling and others to get ready. Tomorrow night, Mochou Lake will be open to the public. Not only the lake, but the entire Mochou Lake will be crowded and lively. This is a

This is an excellent opportunity. We don’t have to stick to formalities and must use all means to attack the enemy. Doesn’t the imperial court control the official mouthpiece? Then we will use public opinion.”

Dai Yubin grabbed the chopsticks with his big hands that had just finished squeezing his feet, and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, sir. Commander Jiang and Commander Xu have prepared according to your instructions. They will show off their skills tomorrow night."

Xia Xun hummed, picked up a crab roe bun, saw Dai Yubin pinching his feet again, and then threw it back into the drawer without any appetite. He casually stirred the duck blood soup and said, "We have contacted Xiao Linzi.

?”

Xiao Linzi was the little eunuch who served the emperor. In order to establish a relationship with him, Xia Xun went to great lengths. He first asked Dai Yubin to get in touch with his sister, and then he established a line with Xiao Linzi. Dai Yubin's

The girl is a palace maid. The treatment of palace maids in the Ming Dynasty is relatively good. If the emperor doesn't like it, there is still one day to leave the palace. It would be miserable in the Tang Dynasty. Once you enter the palace, you will be red-faced and white-haired, and you will never be able to leave.

.

Dai Yixuan is a little palace maid. It is extremely rare for her to have the opportunity to leave the palace. She has never thought about leaving the palace. She has no relatives in Jinling City, and her food and clothing expenses are royal. There is no need for her to go shopping in the neighborhood. She is a very frugal person.

’s little girl.

But suddenly one day, a father-in-law from the scarf and hat bureau found her and said that her relatives had arrived in the capital and wanted to see her. The father-in-law from the scarf and hat bureau had received benefits from others, but he was willing to work hard. Only two days later,

So he found an opportunity to take her out of the palace and met her brother outside the west corner gate.

Dai Yixuan was very happy. From then on, she had someone she cared about in the capital, and she became happy in the palace.

It was she who told her brother about the family background of the imperial chamberlain Xiao Linzi.

"Yes, I will meet him if he can return to the palace in the afternoon."

Xia Xun said: "Okay, don't act in a hurry. Step by step, the emperor was generous and tolerant to the scholars, but extremely harsh to the eunuchs and eunuchs. He often beat, scolded and even beat to death. Xiao Fuzi, the imperial chamberlain, was the one he saw being beaten to death with his own eyes."

Beaten to death, the rabbit dies and the fox is sad. From what you know, his godfather Tang, the manager of the imperial dining room, was also beaten to death on the emperor's order. This is a good opportunity. You have to show him kindness and let him treat you as his wife.

When you meet your dearest person, then slowly test his or her feelings.

He is the little chamberlain before the emperor, and he can always hear some confidential information. If we can make him one of ours, then we will have placed an ear and eyes in front of the emperor. So, be patient, pay as much as you can, and wait.

No matter how long it takes, it’s all worth it.”

"Yes, that humble post will leave now."

Xia Xun nodded without leaving a trace. Dai Yubin picked up the bowl and drank it all like a whirlwind. Then he stood up, wiped his mouth, and left in a hurry.

Xia Xun picked up the crab roe buns. The crab roe buns had a rich soup and a mellow taste. After one bite, the fragrance lingered on his teeth and cheeks. However, Xia Xun always seemed to feel the smell of Dai Yubin's feet on his nose. He opened his mouth, but never had the courage to bite it.

With a wry smile, he dropped the bun and stood up to leave.

※※※※※※※※※※※

Xiao Linzi left the palace sadly.

He is a member of the capital, and has two brothers. Their father died young, and they relied on my mother to do needlework to support them. Later, my mother became seriously ill and became blind. The younger brother was grieved because his father died when his mother was pregnant.

In sorrow, she suffered from the problems she had in her womb, and was frail and sickly since childhood. Xiao Linzi was still young and could not support the family, so she was cruel, so she purified herself and entered the palace.

Over the years, he saved the monthly money from the palace frugally and asked people to take it out of the palace to help the family. My mother and brother lived hard on the little money he earned. But yesterday, he suddenly heard

Someone came back with a message and brought him news like a thunderbolt from the blue. His brother had been ill for a long time and had died.

A eunuch who mutilates his body, feels ashamed of his ancestors, and looks down on others. The most important thing is his family. Especially since he entered the palace, the Lin family's incense has been passed down by his brothers. Now all his sacrifices have come to nothing. Blind mother

How to live alone outside?

Xiao Linzi cried all night, and early in the morning with red and swollen eyes, he went to the official eunuch to ask for leave to leave the palace. No one would sigh after hearing such a thing, so the official eunuch helped him find someone who was feeling unwell due to the cold.

For some reason, he found a substitute eunuch and granted him half a day's leave. Xiao Linzi quickly packed up, because the monthly payment had not yet been paid, so he borrowed some money from the eunuchs and palace maids he was dating, and hurriedly left the palace.

When Xiao Linzi walked out of the west corner gate of the palace, Liu Yujue and Ye An were standing in front of the Jinyiwei Yamen and Luo Qianshi, as well as Chen Dong and Ye An, who had followed Xia Xun in the "assassination of King Yan". Chen Dong still looked harmless to humans and animals.

His smile was as humble as that of a shop waiter who bows his head when meeting people, while Ye An had an honest and dull look on his face. He was wearing a starched white shirt and staring at the pair of thousand-layer-soled needle-napped cloth shoes on his feet.

Luo Kedi said calmly: "Tomorrow night, there will be Mochou's Poetry Recital. Many high officials from the imperial court, candidates for the new imperial examinations, and even dignitaries will be there. The three of you will go and have a look. Pay attention to any news about their actions."

.Especially..."

Luo Kedi's eyes became sharp: "If King Yan really sets up a secret spy team, he will not fail to come to the capital. If he comes to the capital, he will not miss such an opportunity. Do you understand?"

p: Guan Guan, resigned!

In 2006, Guan Guan started writing for the first time. He was confused and stumbled, but with the support of his book friends, he made it all the way to where he is today.

Five years and more than 10 million words, I used my spare time every day to light a lamp and boil oil, and worked hard to create. I have experienced cynicism, vicious curses, and nasty slander from some readers of my competitors. But with the support of my book friends,

Went all the way here.

Since he started creating at the age of 34, Guan Guan's health has been deteriorating due to five years of overdraft and hard work. He has reached the point where he can no longer balance work and creation. He has cervical spondylosis, lumbar spondylosis, and frozen shoulder. Every time he is seen, his face is bright red.

My eyes are so exhausted that I am unable to take care of many things in life and work...

In the later stage of "Bu Bu Sheng Lian", one chapter a day, each chapter has more than 4,000 words. I gritted my teeth and endured it. I really couldn't bear it anymore. Since the new book was put on the shelves, I have struggled for a month with the mental and physical strength accumulated after resting for a month and a half.

Months later, it was overdraft again.

You wouldn’t think that since Jinyi was put on the shelves, the number of updates has surpassed that of most professional authors, and I have put in so much effort to achieve this. When rhinitis affected my mouth and my mouth swelled, I gritted my teeth and insisted on sitting here.

; When frozen shoulder attacks and the pain is unbearable, I put my elbows on the armrests to complete my update; when I get up every day, the pain in my shoulders and back is unbearable when I sit up...

I mentioned it briefly in ***, but didn’t say too much, because this is my own choice. I don’t want to complain or complain, because what I do is to bring happiness to everyone. But in this case

How long can I hold on? I have to make a decision. My physical condition no longer allows me to continue like this. I have to give my body, which has been suffering from non-stop pain day and night for more than five years, time to rest.

A career in a bank is for survival, and writing is for dreams. Giving up writing and loving my readers is tantamount to giving up the most important part of my life, which I can’t bear to do. After careful consideration, Guan Guan reluctantly made a decision: rejected the leader’s offer

I repeatedly asked to stay, and gave up a good and stable career because it was not my dream. Guan Guan threw myself into everyone's arms without hesitation.

I want to combine my hobbies with my profession and devote myself wholeheartedly to this position. It is not easy for me to make this decision when I am nearly forty years old. If you read this book about astronomy elsewhere, you should be able to support it; I have * on hand

Dear friends, when you are reading several books at the same time and it is difficult to choose, you can think of me. These needs are really needed. Dreams come from love,

Love is precious.

To this day, I still love it.

There is no better alternative.

Faced with a choice,

What stirs in my heart is still the unyielding power.

I hope you can understand and

Come with me and look at every happy or sad life story condensed by words.

I am willing to hold my hand and grow old together! Guan Guan continues to code. Dear parents, I hope you can support me as always.

After all, this is your custom, at 2011-11-11:11:11
