356. Chapter 356 The Daily Life of the Emperor and Chief Assistant

In the warm warm pavilion, Zhu Houzhao looked at the note in front of her, sighed with headache, threw the note aside, not far behind him, Li Feng'er snuggled up on an embroidery couch, looking at the letter in her hand with a smile on her face.

This is the daily life of the emperor of the Ming Empire and his favorite woman. It is as ordinary as a young couple from a scholarly family, doing their own things in the study.

Li Feng'er's belly has been highlighted. With a body, it is not very convenient to move. However, sitting and lying down for a long time will cause swelling of legs and feet and poor blood circulation. Therefore, no matter how busy Zhu Houzhao is, he will not forget to support his beloved concubine every day and walk around the pavilions and towers of the leopard room. During this period, he is often placed in the gap after dinner and before the sky is dark.

This is the time to go, Zhu Houzhao rubbed his slightly swollen eyes, walked to Li Feng'er's embroidery couch and sat down: "What are you looking at? You're so happy!"

After saying that, he leaned over and stuck Li Feng'er's head together to read the letters in Li Feng'er's hand.

The letter was written by the princess Liu of the dynasty. Most of the letters were trivial matters. When he arrived in Nanjing, the princess met someone and encountered some interesting things. She wrote them on paper without getting tired of it. Of course, Liu knew what Li Feng'er really wanted to know. The letter was written about Qian Wubing and Qian Wubing doing in Nanjing. At present, Li Feng'er was seeing Qian Wubing's golden fingers sweeping across the Jiangnan officialdom. Seeing that Zhu Yunniang was the little housekeeper of Qian Wubing, worried about piles of silver every day, Li Feng'er couldn't help but feel a little funny.

"It's only 300,000 taels, not too much. Qian Qing's money is a little smaller. Since this ship tent is so easy to sell, it should be sold for tens of thousands or tens of thousands of taels!" Zhu Houzhao said shamelessly, "If I were asked to sell it, I would have to sell for at least 3 million taels!"

Li Feng'er gave him a blank look: "Do you still sell less? Your Baochao Tijuku Department has not issued tens of millions of taels in a year, and no one has ever bought it. You think this ship is printed casually on your white paper, but you have to buy it back with real money and silver without illness!"

"Hehe!" Zhu Houzhao smiled with saliva, "Qian Qing is so capable, why don't he let him take the Baochao Tutoring Office to earn more money every year!"

"Stop coming, just torment my family. People are asking for promotion and wealth. He is good. First, they are a prison chief to watch the prisoner, and then they make money for you. Now they have even moved around to find a few boats, crossing the ocean and sea to find money for you. What are you doing? You are still thinking about finding some errands that your father doesn't love grandma doesn't love. Why don't you think about him when you get promoted and become a rank?" Li Feng'er glared at him, folded the letter in his hand, and placed it on the short table beside the embroidered couch: "Help me get up and have a walk, it's time!"

Zhu Houzhao helped her up as he said, and the two walked slowly outside the warm room.

"It's not that I asked Wubing for the official position. The commander of the Jinyiwei has been empty for several months. Even if Wubing can't be the commander, it's okay to be a Tongzhi. You, you're just hanging there like a dog bone, which is moving but not giving you an explanation!"

"Isn't this the queen of mother also liked that position?" Zhu Houzhao was most afraid of hearing this. The pregnant woman couldn't be angry and had to follow her words, but he really had to defend her words.

"If it weren't for Feng'er, would I have the position to hang there? My mother's intention was revealed, and I would not be able to disobey him directly. But if I directly fulfilled my mother's intention, then Wuyan would be hopeless. It would be good for everyone. If Wuyan did anything to do in the future, I would not say anything if my mother promoted this position!"

"Is it a merit to pay 1.5 million taels of silver to the treasury a year?" Li Feng'er didn't appreciate his affection. "I heard that the three top-notch prefectures paid the money from the Ministry of Revenue, and that money would have to be raised so many officials, but they are alone without illness!"

"Okay, OK!" Zhu Houzhao was unhappy. "I know this in my mind, so don't just nag. I don't want our son to be a little talkative person when he is born! You concentrate on giving birth to a white and fat brat for me. I can't owe your family!"

Li Feng'er burst into laughter and continued to say that after all, she is a smart woman with Bingxue. She knows when to shut up, but she is more temperamental than knows when to open her mouth.

"Aren't the memorials thrown to the Silijian? Why are there any memorials delivered to you? It seems that they are something that is not very happy!" After walking silently for a while, Li Feng'er turned the topic to Zhu Houzhao.

"It's not a memorial, it's the Jinyiwei's business!" Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "It's a bit related to Qian Qing. The Jinyiwei's Southern Yaiya came to Li Town, Gansu. From where the Li people who were reborn at the beginning of the year, they recruited hundreds of people to enrich the Jinyiwei. There is no precedent for this matter. The Beizhen Fushi did not dare to make the decision on its own, so they sent it to me!"

"Is the matter illegal?"

"Not yet, but although our court also uses some sex to serve as officials, when I think of my order in the future, hundreds of white-skinned and blue-eyed Jinyiwei will come to the prisoner's house to pick up people!" Zhu Houzhao said with a bitter face: "There are thousands of military households in the Ming Dynasty. Qian Qing cannot recruit any of them. Isn't this a embarrassing thing?"

"It's just a few hundred people, not tens of thousands, what are you worried about!" Li Feng'er smiled: "I thought it was a big deal. I heard that the Li people were nearly ten thousand. Wuyan still held the title of Li people's comfort envoy. Where can I recruit people from them? It's considered that the wealth is not flowing to outsiders' fields. For the court, these hundreds of people have official positions, so there are no good things like justice. They have a chance, and there are hundreds of people, and there are nearly a thousand people. Wuyan is to win the hearts of these Li people for the court!"

"Yes!" Zhu Houzhao really didn't expect this. He just thought of the awkward situation of hundreds of white-skinned and blue-eyed Jinyiwei in the capital. After Li Feng'er said this, he immediately realized the benefits of this action. With these people working in the capital, are there nearly ten thousand people who are worried about their intentions?

"Then I will just go back and let them not be suspicious!"

...

West of the capital, the principal minister Yang Tinghe's mansion.

A few days ago, Ningxia reported that there was a snow disaster. Yang Tinghe was busy with the disaster relief these days. However, in Fujian, Japanese pirates came ashore and attacked a county town. Although the county town was taken back by local soldiers a month later, the county town was poisoned by Japanese pirates. Not to mention the rewards on merits, the Fujian Provincial Administration and the Fujian Navy are all responsible for accountability. After this incident, a large number of officials will definitely be poured out in Fujian. Yang Tinghe also has to worry about this matter. Natural disasters can be provided for relief, and this man-made disaster must be avoided as much as possible.

Fortunately, the Mongols in the north were also worthy of face. The Ming Dynasty suffered from snow disasters, and they were not much better. Although there were constant small-scale harassment, there was still no big war. Otherwise, Yang Tinghe would have to worry about the money. The Ministry of Revenue had already seen the money this year. It would not be an easy thing to raise some money to go to Jiubian.

In short, before he became the chief minister, Yang Tinghe was quite carefree, but once he got into this position, he realized how amazing it was for Li Dongyang to stand firm in this position for many years. This is a little misstep, and it may be a matter of countless people being displaced. The source of such a thing is often a thought that suddenly flashed through his mind. At that time, what do you think, do you do this chief minister, or don’t?

"Master, Shouning Hou has been here to hand over the post. Are you seeing him or not?" The family brought in a gold-burning post, which was qualified to enter Yang Tinghe's study room, but there were not many posts.

"I have never had any contact with him. What's the best thing to see? If it's a business, I'll just ask him to go to the cabinet tomorrow. If it's a private matter, I'll say I'm tired for a day and have already rested!" Yang Tinghe pondered for a moment, and decided not to see this person. Not only did this person say anything, but he was mostly ridiculous in his actions. It would be of no benefit to his reputation as the prefect of Yang Da Jiao. He was the son's uncle, and it seemed that there was no need to offend him.

The family left in a hurry, and after a moment, he turned back, but this time, he had no gold stamping posts in his hand, but a thick stack of papers the size of a newspaper was added.

"Shouning Hou said that the master had rested, so he would go back. However, he asked the villain to send these things to the master, saying that he would ask the master to take a look in his spare time. The object is worth 200 guan. Now, there are more than 700 guan on the market, and there are ten guans in total here!"

"What is this for?" Yang Tinghe was annoyed. As the rumored, the marquis acted absurdly and gave money so nakedly to the Grand Secretary's house for no reason. Is this intention to destroy his reputation?

After taking the paper from his family, Yang Tinghe glanced and was about to hand it over to his family and asked him to retreat. His eyes suddenly stopped slightly, and he saw the word "Four Seas" on the paper that he could not ignore.

"What is this? Is it a silver bill? Why didn't I see which bill number it belongs to?"

"It seems that the Marquis said that it was a ship guide, which is much more valuable than silver notes. Sihai should refer to the Sihai Tower in our Beijing. Now, it seems that there is only one signature in Beijing that is enough to send these things!"

Yang Tinghe thought about it and immediately changed his mind to retreat: "Go and find out what happened to these ship guides. I will come back tomorrow, and you will report it to me in detail!"

"Yes, Master!"

In the warm warm pavilion, Zhu Houzhao looked at the note in front of her, sighed with headache, threw the note aside, not far behind him, Li Feng'er snuggled up on an embroidery couch, looking at the letter in her hand with a smile on her face.
