Chapter 893 The new task after the play

In addition to Wang Cheng's family, there were also Wang He's two families. Because Cheng Naixuan had not returned yet, he was not considered Zhang Juzheng's confidant, and the rest were all the hard-core Zhang Dang. Although Xiaobei held such a small banquet in Beijing for the first time, Xu Yao was helping him, Yan's mother asked, and Wang Fulin even helped her write posts in person. In addition, the others in the family might not have enough staff, but the chef was in charge. The porcelain that came out of the warehouse to entertain the female guests was actually a set of Xuande Dynasty blue and white fine products from the Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory, so that Mrs. Jiang was so amazed that Gao was very envious.

When Gao asked, he learned that it was Xiaobei's dowry, which was said to be given by the emperor, let alone the amazement. Even after thinking for a while, Mrs. Jiang couldn't help but ask: "Did it be given to the ancestors of the Ye family or to your biological father?"

Such a hot topic suddenly unfolded without Gao's preparation. The long-sleeved and danced lady of the Hanlin Academy was shocked. Realizing that this was an inside story she had never heard of before, she pretended to be confused and chatted with Xu Yao without any notice, but her ears were raised.

"My father had nothing left behind back then. Even the Luye Garden and Xiyuan that were returned were sold to my husband by my incompetent brother in order to pay off the tax. This was given to me by my parents. It was said that the ancestors of the Ye family once produced a very famous imperial physician. He cured the old lady Chengxiao Zhang. When he reported his life, Grandpa Xuande happened to see a large number of treasures coming up in Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory. In addition to the six palaces, he rewarded two sets to his ancestors. Both sets were sixteen pieces each. My father got them when he was separated before, so he gave them to me and my sister."

Mrs. Jiang exclaimed lightly, then smiled and said, "I remember you and your sister have two younger brothers. Your parents only think about your two daughters, aren't they afraid that they will be unhappy when they turn back?"

"Ming Zhao and Mingtang are indeed at a disadvantage. The two Jihong cups they received were all small, and they were also rewarded by Empress Dowager Xiaogongsun in the palace. The old lady gave all these things to her father after the separation of the family. Even though my sister and I got married, they all knew that the man was not easy to mess with, so they stopped and did not dare to say anything more."

While talking to Xu Yao next to him, Gao felt that his head was a little overwhelmed as he listened to Mrs. Jiang and Xiaobei's words.

Xiaobei's tone was not the biological daughter of the Ye family, but his biological father was someone else. Since Mrs. Jiang asked this, she clearly knew. Moreover, this biological father should have been extremely prominent, otherwise Mrs. Jiang would not have seen the porcelain in Xuande kiln and thought it was something Xiaobei inherited from her biological father. But later people were obviously defeated, but the court also sent back two gardens, with names, and the clues could be clearly found after going back and checking. But Xiaobei was not the daughter of the Ye family, and the Ye couple was so generous in accompanying the dowry. Even the relatives of the Ye family knew that Wang Fulin was not easy to mess with, which shows that the private teachings and other things outside were all nonsense!

But Wang Fulin must have dealt with other members of the Ye family, except for his father-in-law who was the magistrate of She County!

During this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Wang Fulin and Wang Zhuan and He Luowen talked about everything. Wang Fulin, a junior, easily received praise from He Luowen, a bachelor of the Academy, with his ability as a literary thief. In addition, Wang Zhuan's help, Zhang Juzheng has always favored him. When the banquet was dispersed, He Luowen was already a friend and seemed to be very rewarding to him. As for the two sons of the He family who came to make soy sauce, and one of Wang Zhuan's sons was very self-aware and purely as an audience, and he didn't say a few words from beginning to end.

Inside were Wang Zhuan’s daughter-in-law Zhou and He Luowen’s two daughters-in-law sat at the second table, without having to serve her mother-in-law, watch the moon, drink, eat and listen to the opera, and she was free. But the two hosts and guests on the table were not so happy, but they achieved their own goals. When the banquet was about to end, Gao pinched his fingers and calculated, and suddenly said with a smile: “Looking at the day, the old lady in the Prime Minister’s house, I don’t know if she can arrive in the capital during the Double Ninth Festival. If it arrives, we have to go and greet her.”

"There are so many people who want to pay tribute, and I guess they can't even get in line at that time." Mrs. Jiang laughed disapprovingly, then looked at Xiaobei and said, "I heard that your husband had met the old lady in the first place?"

"I met in Jiangling County about seven or eight years ago. Maybe Mrs. Zhao had forgotten it a long time ago." Xiaobei answered without caring. When she smiled and sent Gao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law away, she saw that only Zhou was left, and then she pulled Jiang and whispered, "Even if the wife deliberately supported me, that would be too much. Looking back, Mrs. Gao thought about it carefully, she must suspect that we were putting a condom for her together."

"Although I am old and don't like to go out for socializing, my eyes are still very poisonous. Even if she knows that I did it on purpose, she will inevitably think more and more. This person's temperament cannot be changed. There are so many Hanlin Academy in the Hanlin Academy, so women will inevitably have a small circle around her, the lady of the Master of the Academy. If she says something, she will naturally pass it on quickly. Originally, I should have done this, but I, who rarely entertained guests, suddenly changed my habits, which will cause gossip. So she took the initiative to deliver it to her, so let her go."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Jiang glanced at the silent Zhou family, but smiled and patted her daughter-in-law to support her hand: "I just like her saw-mouth gourd like this. I don't talk much, but once I open my mouth, I will definitely talk to me, and I am the most considerate to me."

"mother"

Seeing Zhou, she felt a little embarrassed, and Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "Okay, let's go. Even if you know that the five cities of the military personnel would not stop our carriage and horses and say that it was a night off, you have to be more aware of it. It's better not to be too late after the night ban." She said as she turned around with Zhou and turned the carriage. After she sat firmly, she raised the curtains and said to Xiaobei and Xu Yao, "Don't make trouble on the Double Ninth Festival. If those lingering wives come to the house, they will not be bothered. When you see the wealth and honor of your family, some of them will be poor and jealous."

"Yes, thank you madam."

Xiaobei and Xu Yao almost agreed in unison. When they sent Mrs. Jiang away, they looked at each other and then they all laughed. Xu Yao was not well-off when she was a child. Her mother was injured by housework and gave birth to their brother and sister very late. Xiaobei even went from the wealthy family to almost falling into the streets, and only then did she live a rich and comfortable life again after she arrived at the Ye family. In contrast, they were very satisfied with their current life. After all, no matter whether they lacked anything, they would not be short of money.

"No matter what, Mrs. Jiang is such a good person." Xu Yao looked at the full moon in the sky that was looming among the clouds, and couldn't help but say with some confusion, "I don't know if my husband is in Liaodong now, and he is also interested in watching the moon and celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Wang Fulin happened to send Wang Zhuan and He Luowen back in front of him. When he heard Xu Yao say this, he immediately had the urge to escape. After all, he recommended Cheng Naixuan and Guangmao to go to Liaodong to investigate the authenticity of the Changding Fort victory. Guangmao sent a perjury back. Cheng Naixuan wrote another letter to remind him that now, with the Liaodong inspector An Jiudi, who had just received the order, as well as the father and son of Li Chengliang and Li Rusong, who were already in a deep quagmire, and so many military generals in Liaodong, Liaodong is just a quagmire. Although there is an imperial edict and order to return as soon as possible, it will take more than a month to go back and forth. Cheng Naixuan can withdraw so quickly to get out of nowhere!

Fortunately, he was very thick-skinned. At this time, he laughed dryly and walked forward, saying seriously: "Xiao Cheng is the same temperament as me. He has always been in pain. I think he must be looking up at the bright moon and thinking about his hometown. If he doesn't believe that when he comes back, we will ask him carefully how he celebrates the Mid-Autumn Festival this year."

"It's true, Sister Xu is sad. You are still so slick!" Xiaobei also comforted Wang Fulin so much, but for a while, she sent her back to the Cheng family. She looked at Cheng Naixuan and Xu Yao's son and daughter for a while. Then she came back and asked the Cheng family to lock the door while he asked the accompanying mother Yan to lock the door.

However, when she returned to the room and talked about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet today, she couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Is it really okay to spread my story so much?"

"You know, this was intentional. After all, Zhang Taizheng had seen you and your sister travel with me in West Lake, Hangzhou before. He is still with Zhang Siwei. The more rumors spread, the easier it is for him to be unable to control it. I am looking forward to it. He cheating his father again, so it will not be in vain for me to build momentum." Wang Fulin could not have expected that Zhang Ge Lao, who is too high, is now suppressing Zhang Grandpa who is too low, is now pressing down on Zhang Grandpa who is too low.

This person is so bad! At this moment, Xiaobei only had such an idea in his mind. But as long as he is cruel to the enemy and good to his own people, what does it matter?

Although Wang Fulin was most expecting to kill two birds with one stone, unfortunately, even though he was holding two important pieces in the middle and lower level of the Jinyiwei, he still failed to find any abnormal movements between Zhang Siwei and Zhang Taizheng and his son. He only found that rumors about his wife outside were gradually cleverly controlled within the range he wanted. And with the rumors that Xiyuan and Luyeyuan were inherited by Xiaobei's family and were later sold to him by his brother, Xiaobei's life experience was also revealed in the eyes of those who were interested. But before such a thing really passed the road, he received an unexpected and reasonable task.

Chen Zan, the censor of Zuodu, who had retired, passed away.

According to convention, the court would send officials to give funerals to officials for funerals. Of course, this errand would not have fallen on the head of Wang Fulin, the censor of the Taoist throne. However, it was not known that Zhang Juzheng understood that Chen Zan valued trust in him or wanted him to temporarily leave the rumored capital, but he actually stuffed him into the list of funerals to Xian County, Hejian Prefecture, Beizhili, Chen Zan's hometown. In addition, Zhang Juzheng also gave him an additional private task, which was to go to greet Mrs. Zhao who was rushing to the capital.

Wang Fulin naturally accepted the former, but he naturally had no objection to the latter, but he really wanted to refuse it rationally. However, after thinking about it, he finally agreed. What he did not expect was that before he left to Hejian Mansion, the palace actually passed the order of the little emperor, entrusting him to go to Zhending Mansion to welcome Mrs. Zhao after Chen Zan's funeral.

The order of the little emperor and Zhang Juzheng's private entrustment were at the same time. Wang Fulin could only sigh that he was really concerned. What surprised him even more was that Emperor Wanli Zhu Yijun summoned him once in Wenhua Hall and then gave him an acquaintance to accompany him. When he saw Zhang Ning in Wenhua Hall, he couldn't help but wonder.

Is this old acquaintance who once had an indissoluble bond in Beixinguan, Feng Bao, or Zhang Hong's person? Or the little emperor's person? There are many eunuchs in the palace with the surname Zhang. If you think that he is Zhang Hong's person just because of the character Zhang, you will be fooled!

"Wang Qing and Zhang Ning, the Silijian, go with him. You can walk slowly all the way, and you don't have to hurry up." Zhu Yijun said very slowly and steadily. It is better to say that he is trying to control the rhythm of the conversation than to declare the emperor's majesty.

"The two old ladies have already discussed with me. When they arrive in the capital, the eunuch of the Sili Prison, Li You, eunuch of the Ciqing Palace, Zhang Zhongju, and eunuch of the Cining Palace, Li Yonghui, eunuch of the Cining Palace, comforted me and the two old ladies in the suburbs."

Wang Fulin didn't know whether it was given such high-level reception to Zhang Juzheng's mother, or from the two empress dowagers, but the matter was decided anyway, and there was no room for him, the little censor to argue, so he naturally agreed very readily. However, when he left Wenhua Palace, before he could say something to Zhang Ning, Zhang Ning was sent by Feng Bao, and the one who sent him out of the Great Sect was actually Tian Yi, the Wenshu room, the Wenshu room, and Tian Yi.

"The emperor knows that Wang Zhangdao Sulai is loyal to you, so please go and see how the prefectures and counties that the Taima passes along the road are welcomed." Tian Yi paused and then said meaningfully, "Besides, the Taima is old. Although she has children and grandchildren to accompany her all the way north, I think she is always a little uneasy about the places she has never been to. After all, she has never left Jiangling County in her life. Wang Zhangdao Sulai is good at speaking and can comfort the elderly."

The second half is simply nonsense, and the important thing is the first half. Is this a report to tell me how the officials along the way tried to curry favor with Zhang Juzheng?

Wang Fulin made up his character for this matter in his heart, but even though he had always said everything to Zhang Juzheng, before leaving, because Zhang Juzheng had not had a rest on this day and was still in the cabinet, he did not go to visit and say goodbye, but instead sent a letter openly, saying that he would take good care of Mrs. Zhao's itinerary, but in fact he had nothing to say.

After all, Mrs. Zhao has come so far, let alone the hundreds of miles from Zhending Mansion to the capital?
