"Second brother, you are our backbone now, do you have to make an idea?"
Wuding Marquis Guo Ying used a knife to cut open a whole freshly roasted lamb kidney, dipped half of it in salt and pepper, chewed it in his mouth, and said, "Brothers, what are you counting on now? We old guys,
There is nothing else left now, and at this age, there is nothing else to look forward to."
"I'm just looking forward to counting the money at home when I have income. Seeing the warehouses at home getting full, I've been living in poverty since I was born. I'm afraid of poverty in this life!"
As soon as Guo Ying opened his mouth, everyone looked at Feng Sheng.
I am afraid of being poor in this life. This sentence is definitely applied to these people. Back then, my hungry eyes turned blue and I followed the old man to rebel. I put my head in my belt just for a good meal. I rolled around in the palace of the king of hell and slept among the dead.
, exchanging one's life for three melons and two dates is more important than one's life.
Even though all of them were later made marquises, the root cause of the problem was that they could not see money. It is no wonder for them. People who came out of troubled times have seen too many tragedies in the world. Why have they been so troubled all their lives?
, not for the sake of their children and grandchildren, who will not have to live the life they lived and suffer the sins they suffered.
Feng Sheng squinted his eyes, and his long eyebrows trembled with his breathing, "Hey, I told you before, don't show off your money. Look, are you being targeted by those stupid civil servants now?" As he said,
, and sighed, "What can I do? Damn it, our civil servants in the Ming Dynasty are all fucking wild dogs, biting the lower body and not letting go!"
Changxing Marquis Geng Bingwen, who was one generation younger than them, said, "Second Master, how about you just let them participate? Then just watch them take this cornucopia away from us?"
As he spoke, he paused and whispered, "Everyone, what does your Majesty mean?"
The old soldiers looked at each other, but no one said anything.
They were somewhat unclear about the emperor's intentions and did not respond directly to the civil servants, but they did not give reassurance to them, the noble military ministers, as before.
"How can we guess what the emperor means?" Guo Ying glanced at Geng Bingwen, "How come you don't speak deeply or shallowly now!"
"Fourth uncle, am I not in a hurry?" Geng Bingwen defended in a low voice, "As you know, my father died young, and my Geng family's family background is not as good as yours." After saying that, he paused and said, "Old man.
I pointed out that Princess Jiangdu married into my family, and the money spent on building the house and garden is like running water. If the princess comes over in the future, she can’t live a hard life with us, can she?”
"Go away!" Jingchuan Hou Cao Zhen scolded, "When it comes to spending money, you say nothing about the dowry given by the prince, and you don't even mention a damn thing about it!"
"Even if the emperor gives you a gold mountain in the future, our family doesn't dare to spend it. It's the princess's private house, not as good as our family's warehouse!" Geng Bingwen spread his hands and said aggrievedly.
"Let's talk about business!" Guo Ying glanced at the two of them, "Where did it go?"
As he said that, he sighed again, "We people, it's really impossible to have a strategist to fight back! We can't have fun!"
Zhang Wen, the Marquis of Huining, who was sitting on the side, sighed and said, "I would rather fight the Tatars than fight with the civil servants. It's too damn tiring!"
After the words fell, a group of veteran killers who killed without batting an eye all sighed silently, with tangled faces.
"Or, go to the palace to find the old man?" Cao Zhen said.
Feng Sheng curled his lips, "If you want to be beaten, go and do it yourself, don't take me with you!"
At this moment, Dongguan Bo He Rong, who was suddenly leaning against the window, said, "Hey, look, is that old bastard Ling Han's sedan on the street below?"
Everyone craned their necks to look, and sure enough, it was Ling Han's sedan walking leisurely through the street. This road was the only way Ling Han had to go home, and his home was on the west side of this street.
"Gather him up!" Feng Sheng said, "Although Lao Ling is a civil servant, he has been friends with us for decades. Unlike those in the court who have troubles, they damn want to knock us all down.
!”
"I'll go!" Guo Ying ate the other half of the big kidney and rushed downstairs. His skills and steps were not at all like those of an old man in his sixties, and he was very energetic.
Not long after, I heard Ling Han's voice coming from downstairs, "Hey, how are you doing in broad daylight? Come on, let me go. Are you rough guys like me? How can I come to a place like this?"
At the same time, Guo Ying's voice also came, "Stop pretending to be a good person, who doesn't know who you are? If you think this yard is not easy to play in, I will arrange for you to go to another place later!"
"No, hey..."
Just like that, Ling Han was dragged up to the private room on the second floor by Guo Ying.
As soon as he opened the door, several eyes fell directly on Ling Han.
The old man also looked at everyone and grinned, "Haha, you are so cheerful!"
Feng Sheng pointed at Cao Zhen and said, "Get out of here!" Then he said to Ling Han, "Old Ling, sit next to me. I haven't had a few sips with you in a while. Have a good drink today!"
Cao Zhen reluctantly moved his buttocks, Linghan sat down and said with a smile, "I haven't had a drink with Song Guogong in a while, but why are you here?"
"Everywhere I drink, I drink!" Feng Sheng smiled and patted the other party's shoulder affectionately, "Hey, Lao Ling, although our civil and military backgrounds are different, we can be considered old friends over the years. Hey, we old immortals,
It’s becoming less and less!”
Ling Han smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't be emotional like this! You should be emotional. I am a civil servant and a Jinshi. My shit is all tinged with emotion. I am much more emotional than you!"
"Hahahaha!" Because of these words, the surrounding veteran soldiers burst into laughter.
In fact, the civil servants who founded the Ming Dynasty did not have many fuel-efficient lamps. It was normal for them to talk about their father and mother, and it was not uncommon to slap the table and curse others with outsiders.
"You're really right. If anything happens, you'll have to give it to us old advisors!" Feng Sheng said with a smile, "You also know that those of us who use our knives to act and use our brains are like eunuchs jumping into the moat.
There is nothing we can do!"
Guo Ying also said, "Old Ling, we are all old guys, please show me the way. You have also seen the momentum today, those forty-year-olds are fighting with us to the death!"
"
Ling Han sat upright with his back straight.
The old man knew what was going on from the moment he was pulled up. In fact, he already knew what was going on when he was in the court. Otherwise, he didn't say a word. He really didn't want to get involved in this matter. And to be fair, he didn't want to get involved.
By the way, he is from the civil service side, so of course he seems to be looking at the misfortune of these veteran killers.
But after all, decades of friendship are here. Although we fight and scold each other on weekdays, back then it was really a close relationship. Besides, at this age, I understand a truth. Feng Shui is changing, maybe one day it will happen.
Seeking someone else's place.
He is Ling Tietou, not Ling Tiemian.
"Hmm!" The old man thought for a moment, then looked at Feng Sheng, his eyes flashing.
Feng Sheng was stunned for a moment and did not react.
But then something flashed through his mind, this look was familiar to him, it was a look that meant someone wanted to whisper something!
He nodded immediately and said to the old military princes, "Well, brothers! Please excuse me for everyone's convenience!" Then he added, "It's not that I can't say something in front of everyone, because Lao Ling is a civil servant.
, unlike us, who are noisy and irritating!"
Everyone knew in their hearts that they were afraid that people would talk too much. Few of them, old nobles, could keep their words in their mouths.
"You two are not girls, what are you talking about in private?"
"Are you fucking afraid of people looking at you? Avoiding people?"
