Yan Mansion,

Zhu Hui patted Yan Kesong on the shoulder and laughed, "My brother, when he first met Cheng Jin, I knew that he was very similar to ordinary children.

Today, Brother Yu heard about it in the hall, and it was indeed extraordinary.”

Yan Kesong filled with a stiff smile: "The Duke of the State is too rewarded, and what Cheng Jin said is nothing but the intention of Your Majesty. You should not be praised like this."

Today, Yan Kesong was also in the hall. He didn't expect that His Majesty would ask Yan Chengjin for his opinion.

Yan Kesong sighed a little. His Majesty asked for advice, but it was nothing more than the three elders and nine ministers in the cabinet, and he rarely called ministers outside of the cabinet.

Zhu Hui looked around the mansion and said in confusion: "Why don't you see Cheng Jin?"

"I'm going to Zeng Mansion, the Duke of the State should prepare to leave for North Korea." Yan Kesong said.

Zhu Hui looked up at the courtyard, which was dilapidated. He planted some vegetables, vegetables and fruits, but could not cover up the dilapidated courtyard.

"My brother, this mansion should be cultivated. With the salary of your father and son, can't you afford it?"

Whenever this is the case, Yan Kesong wants to take the guests to visit the new courtyard.

However, my son said he wanted to guard against the thief, so he gave up this idea.

...

Ganqing Palace,

Zhang Heling knelt on the ground and cried, saying, "Your Majesty, my brother died very miserably. Please ask Your Majesty and Empress to give him a grand funeral."

Queen Zhang cried very sadly. She was just a younger brother but died at the hands of the bandits. She had dreamed about Zhang Yanling these days.

Emperor Hongzhi sneered in his heart, and it was clear that he didn't even see the body, so how could he say the word "miserable".

"How do you want to be buried with a grand funeral?"

Zhang Heling's heart moved and thought for a while and said, "There is a large wasteland in Gecun County to the east of Liang Township. I am still empty. Why don't I give it to me and make it a tomb?"

To the east of Liang Township is next to Gecun County. If you can get that piece of land, it will be much more convenient to do business.

Xiao Jing jumped and turned cold. Zhang Heling treated His Majesty as a fool.

According to the factory guards' return, the land price of Liangxiang has become valuable. Although it is far less than that of the capital, it is much more valuable than that of Daxing County and other places.

In this way, even the surrounding land becomes valuable.

Emperor Hongzhi snorted coldly: "You are so brave! You dare to enclose land in the name of Brother Zang!

I have repeatedly told you that you must not occupy the farmland of the people, but you rack your brains to occupy the people's fields."

Zhang Heling's body was trembling, his lips were so scared that he was pale, and he hurriedly said, "I, I dare not!"

Emperor Hongzhi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I won't punish you this time. Go back to the mansion and get rid of Jianchang Bo's funeral. I know that you have more money."

"I'm already doing it."

Zhang Heling stood up aggrievedly and didn't dare to say anything more.

He is smarter than Zhang Yanling, and knows that His Majesty will be beaten for the sake of the Empress.

Emperor Hongzhi held Empress Zhang's hand and comforted him: "This is not allowed to be done. If I made this case, the vassal kings in the world would follow suit and ask me for fiefdom in the name of a grand funeral.

Although the territory of the Ming Dynasty was large, many people had no place to stand.

I feel ashamed."

Queen Zhang wiped away her tears with a plain white veil and nodded gently, "I understand your Majesty's difficulties."

Emperor Hongzhi looked at Xiao Jing and frowned and said, "Where is the prince? Let him come to accompany the queen today."

Zhu Houzhao is very funny. With him here, Queen Zhang's sorrow will be relieved a little.

Xiao Jing responded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Your Highness, the Crown Prince, has left the palace."

Emperor Hongzhi thought for a while and said, "I won't go to Fengtian Palace today. I will order the cabinet to handle the affairs of the court on my behalf."

Xiao Jing responded and walked out quickly.

...

Zeng Mansion,

Yan Chengjin came to see Song Jing, and the last pass was the palace examination.

The top scholar in the imperial examination in the 15th year of Hongzhi was Kang Hai. Although Song Jing won the Yuan Dynasty, he was unable to be careless.

"What's your Highness's clue?"

Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "I can't think of any questions my father would ask, but my father likes to read these books, so I will write them for you."

Emperor Hongzhi liked to study in Huagai Palace in his spare time and went to pay his respects for a long time. Zhu Houzhao remembered the books on the imperial desk.

Song Jing widened his eyes and said that there were more books than Lord Yan gave him.

"The father read a lot, and this is all I can think of."

Yan Chengjin knew what Zhu Houzhao was trying to bet Song Jing and won back two thousand taels of silver and the little mare.

"In this last round, no one can tell what to pass the exam. You can review it carefully these days."

From Zeng Mansion,

Zhu Houzhao lowered her head slightly, looking hesitant.

Yan Chengjin asked, "Does Your Highness want to steal the test questions in the palace? Then take them to Liangxiang to sell them?"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up: "How do you know, Lao Gao?"

Yan Chengjin's face was stiff and said, "Your Highness will be beaten out of bed by His Majesty."

Zhu Houzhao didn't care: "I asked Liu Jin to steal it. Even if my father discovered it, Liu Jin's head would be chopped off. What does it have to do with me?"

Liu Jin cried with a sad face and hugged Zhu Houzhao's thigh: "Your Highness, I am still useful."

He decided to go and ask the old Taoist in Lingji Palace tomorrow why His Highness wanted to kill him too.

Yan Chengjin naturally had no objection to let Liu Jin go and steal.

"Jianchang Bo's Mansion is holding a funeral?" Yan Chengjin saw that there were funerals hanging in Jianchang Bo's mansion.

Zhu Houzhao blinked and said, "It seems that my uncle is dead."

It was like a cabbage that died, and there was no change on Zhu Houzhao's face.

Yan Chengjin glanced at him and saw the businessman in the teeth.

Zhang Heling smiled and didn't see the white stick. He thought it was a popular thing, but he only saw his face full of spring breeze.

The housekeeper and his servants cried and said, "Master, you can't sell it. The second master hasn't passed the first seventh day yet. Will he become a lonely ghost when he comes back?"

Zhang Heling smiled and said, "Brother, if you come back, go to your brother's mansion."

Three great things in life.

The merchants from the Tooth Store are a little afraid to accept it. After all, someone just died and it is difficult to sell it if you buy it.

But no one knows the reputation of Shouning Hou, and if you don’t buy it, you can’t make it in the capital.

"Sir, this family must never dare to ask for it, and even someone died..."

"Don't worry, I'll give you some cheaper, 30,000 taels."

The merchant at the tooth shop almost broke his teeth, and the empty house was only 18,000 taels at most.

"Sir, I have something to do, so you can hold the funeral first."

Zhang Heling snorted coldly, but saw Yan Chengjin coming.

Liu Jin hurriedly said, "I heard that today, Shouning is waiting to enter the palace and ask Your Majesty to beg for a grand funeral, but Your Majesty has not agreed.

Let Mr. Zhang solve the problem by himself.”

Yan Chengjin nodded and said, "I'm pretty good at inquiring, I'll give you a day."

Liu Jin smiled humbly: "Sir Xie Yan."

When he ran into it, he planned to go in and snatch a stick of incense. In front of Yan Chengjin's walkway, he saw Zhang Heling holding the land deed and asked, "Sir, is this?"

Zhang Heling said: "My brother who sells the house, do you want this mansion?"

It seems that it is selling a house...

As far as Yan Chengjin knows, this house belongs to Zhang Yanling.

Yan Chengjin did not expect that Zhang Heling would be so stingy. However, according to the Ming Dynasty, after the lineage of the vassal kings was exterminated, the court would take back the mansion and fiefdom.

Or, give it to other vassal kings.

Even if it is sold, this mansion belongs to the court.
