Chapter 346 Extra Chapter: The True Prime Minister
Xu Xianzhong was a little embarrassed when he saw his father, and wanted to leave, but his father waved to him and asked him to come over.
Xu Xianzhong had no choice but to come over.
"I'll take my leave if it's okay. I'm coming here with my classmates, and..."
Xu Jingchang glared, "What's wrong with you, classmate? I won't need you a few times, so don't hesitate. Tell me, how are these pigeons doing?"
Xu Xianzhong glanced at it and curled his lips and said: "It's not that good. They are all common products on the market. Buying them home is a waste of time."
Hearing what he said, the boss next to him didn't want to hear it anymore, "Young master, you can't talk nonsense! The whole Yingtian City is famous for my excellent pigeons. You said it so casually, it's bad."
I won’t agree to my business.”
Xu Jingchang also smiled and said: "You see, my boss doesn't agree. If you are unreasonable, I will buy these pigeons back and spend your pocket money."
Xu Xianzhong rolled his eyes in anger, "How can you be such a father!"
He leaned over and took a closer look, pointed at the leg of one of the pigeons and said, "Is that bleeding or cinnabar?"
The boss was startled and hurriedly reached out to catch it, but Xu Xianzhong said: "Don't bother, those are the pigeons of Jishan Temple. If you don't open your eyes and take a good look, you even dare to catch Rong Guogong's pigeons! Even though he is a kind-hearted old man.
, I won’t argue with you, but if I meet someone else, I’ll have to arrest you!”
When the boss heard this, he was greatly surprised. Duke Rong's pigeon?
Why didn't he hear about it?
Xu Xianzhong snorted, "Send it back as soon as possible before you can find it. Don't lose your life because of a pigeon."
After saying this, he picked up Xu Jingchang and turned around to leave. The two men left quickly.
After walking a while, Xu Jingchang asked curiously: "How can you recognize Lao Baldy's pigeon? Isn't he about to die? He released the pigeon three months ago?"
Xu Xianzhong rolled his eyes and said, "Dad, you are really confused. Didn't I just say that casually? Do you really want to buy a bunch of rubbish and go back?"
"No, isn't that pigeon bad?" Xu Jingchang said: "I think it's good!"
"Forget it." Xu Xianzhong said: "You old man, you have nothing to do but listen to music and look at the stars. Don't be embarrassed... You have loved fishing for so many years, and you have caught everything but no fish! That time
We even caught a corpse!”
Xu Jingchang snorted angrily: "I was trying to solve a case, Jiang Taigong was fishing, you know nothing!"
"I don't understand!" Xu Xianzhong said: "But since you were seven years old, you are no match for me in playing chess, fighting crickets, or walking a dog with an eagle. You can't understand antique calligraphy and painting either.
...If it weren’t for me, you would have bought a fake Dongpo pen and washed it that time.”
Xu Jingchang coughed and said: "Didn't I lead you to eat Dongpo meat that time? By the way...little bastard, how did you figure it out? I'm still doubtful about it!"
"Ouch!" Xu Xianzhong said helplessly: "Looking at these things, firstly, it is about vision, you have to have seen everything, secondly, it is talent, and thirdly, you need to have someone to guide you... I have learned all my skills from my grandpa.
, not only him, but also Duke Rong, Lord Jingqing, Yang Rong and Yang Shangshu. I am different from you. I draw on the strengths of others and can learn everything at once, unlike some of the scumbags who were young."
Xu Jingchang rolled his eyelids and fell back in anger.
"Don't talk nonsense. So many people have always boasted that I was very smart when I was a child."
Xu Xianzhong chuckled: "So you, the old man, also know that you are bragging!"
He turned his head and looked to the side, stretched out his hand, pulled Yu Qian over, and said to Xu Jingchang: "This is the real child prodigy. When he was a child, he was proficient in everything from pairings to writing poems."
Xu Jingchang looked around. He was in his early twenties, with handsome features, a little older than his son, calm and steady, and looked very reliable.
"This is the classmate you mentioned to me many times...Yu Qian?"
Xu Xianzhong nodded, "That's him."
Yu Qian hurriedly bowed and said, "I have met Duke Dingguo."
Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "I heard that you took good care of this bastard in Taixue? As a father, how about treating you to a meal of mutton?"
Yu Qian hurriedly said: "I just ate it, but..."
Xu Xianzhong immediately said: "It's better not to refuse. I don't dare to refuse the elder's gift." He pulled Yu Qian's sleeve, brought it to his ear, and whispered: "You are stupid, this is a meal, this is a relationship, I
Although dad is not in his position, although he has a bad reputation, even though he is sometimes confused..."
"Shut up!"
Xu Jingchang was so angry that he punched his son and rolled away.
"Let's go to a restaurant in the northwest."
Xu Jingchang came over with his two kids and went directly to the back seat to prepare food. Xu Jingchang looked at Yu Qian carefully and said with a smile: "I read the article you wrote. At a young age, you can hit the nail on the head.
It’s not easy.”
Yu Qian did not dare to accept this, mainly because the Duke Dingguo opposite him was already one of the Nine Qings when he was younger than him, and he also played tricks on so many courtiers. He was not a kid like him.
of.
"I am a late student who doesn't know the depth. I said a few random words without knowing the importance. I hope Duke Ding will give me some advice."
Xu Xianzhong quickly looked at his father and said, "Don't hide it, just give me a few pointers."
Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "Your father is not a stingy person. There are some things that should have been done a long time ago, but the time has not come. Now that I see you younger generation growing up, it is time to clean up the dirt."
Xu Xianzhong came closer and said in confusion: "Dad, you have been dismissed as the General Secretary for many years and have been away from the court. Now that you are talking about cleaning up the dirt, are you a bit arrogant?"
Xu Jingchang smiled and said, "You continue."
Xu Xianzhong frowned, "Father, now Jian Shangshu, Xia Shangshu, Yang Shangshu, and Zuo Du Yushi Liu Guan, they are all deeply rooted, have many disciples, and all the official positions in the world are their people... You old man is sitting in the city of sleepiness, unable to do anything.
, I think you are just talking nonsense and just dreaming."
Xu Jingchang ignored him, but turned to look at Yu Qian and said with a smile, "Did you hear what's wrong with him?"
Yu Qian was surprised, "I don't know if I was born late."
Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "My son is smart and knows a lot... But just like that, he lacks the momentum to move forward and the courage to burn the boat. He can't achieve great things, so I let him stay in Taixue early.
I'm looking for a few classmates who can handle things. I didn't expect this kid to fall in love with you. I have to say...this bastard son of mine has a pretty good eye."
Xu Xianzhong snorted, "What are you talking about? My vision has always been better than yours!"
At this time, Xu Jingchang stopped smiling and said, "What are your plans? You can't just rely on an article to defeat others, right?"
Xu Xianzhong shook his head repeatedly and told Xu Jingchang his plan.
"So that's what happened... Are you planning to start with Chen Xun?"
"What do you think, Dad?"
"Not at all." Xu Jingchang said directly: "You said that his temporary confusion cost millions of taels... but do you know how much money has been spent on foreign troops in recent years?"
Xu Xianzhong immediately said: "I have calculated it, it is about more than 200 million taels."
"It's 230 million taels. Among them, because of Qiu Fu's confusion, he mistakenly killed the leader of Annan, causing a great chaos, and more than 50 million taels were thrown in... There was also a mistake in the shipyard the year before last, which caused a fire.
The amount of timber in the shipyard was suddenly heavy... In the past few years, more than ten million have been spent on building the Great Wall. Now that the northern border has been recovered and the world is at peace, no one is responsible for these extra expenses. "
Xu Jingchang muttered that the losses of each item far exceeded several million taels.
Yu Qian was also listening silently, with a solemn expression and a deep breath.
Xu Xianzhong scratched his head and said bitterly: "Dad, what do you mean, this matter can only be suppressed and cannot be brought out?"
Xu Jingchang did not speak, but looked at Yu Qian.
Yu Qian took a deep breath and said seriously: "It seems that the Ming Dynasty needs to be completely reformed!"
After hearing this, Xu Jingchang finally laughed with satisfaction.
"This is the true prime minister of the Ming Dynasty in the future!" Xu Jingchang said happily: "You bastard, you have a really good vision. Only by moving forward bravely and never looking back can you really tear apart the gloomy government situation and make real changes in this world."
Xu Xianzhong nodded quickly, "I understand...so I will protect Yu Qian. As long as I am here, no one can do anything to him."
Xu Jingchang smiled and nodded, "Very good, you finally understand your usefulness... But now you are not only protecting, but also trying to figure out how to get rid of Chen Xun."
Yu Qian stared at Xu Jingchang and said, "Dong Guo Gong, please give me some advice on Wansheng."
Xu Xianzhong also said: "Dad, do you have any good ideas?"
Xu Jingchang smiled faintly, "What I just mentioned falls within the scope of national policies. As long as the scope is narrowed to dereliction of duty and dealt with according to criminal regulations, that's it."
As expected, the new book will be released next week...
