Chapter 264
The three of them entered the Duke's Mansion. In the uneasy alley, Heiwa, led by Shi Tou, went to the flower hall to meet Sucheng.
When the three of them walked through the winding corridor and crossed a small bridge, they saw the female family members in the pavilion by the lake.
Bai Yan was playing chess with a beautiful woman, and Da Ni, a few servants and mother-in-law were standing next to her.
Hutong asked with a voice:
"Who is the eldest lady playing chess with? This woman is a little bit jealous. Whose daughter? I haven't seen her much."
Heiwa also looked here with her head curious:
"Where, who? Let's see if we know my little daughter?"
Shi Tou slapped Heiwa on the head:
"Look at it, that's the future prince's wife. What do you think? Be careful that the eldest lady scolds you."
Heiwa immediately shrank his neck. They knew that Bai Yan was so fierce that he pulled up the business of the Duke's mansion, so when he scolded others, the Duke was a little scared, let alone them.
Bai Yan and Fan Xiaoyue were playing chess at a critical moment, but because they had lost a few moves before, Bai Yan was not far from losing chess. When they were anxious, they heard the voice of Shitou Heiwa.
Thinking of the reason for the solution, a hint of cunning flashed across Bai Yan's pretty face, and he slapped the table with a bare hands:
"Zhang Shitou, Heiwa, huh, who is this person?"
Bai Yan slapped it with a slap, vibrating the chessboard. The good chess pieces were shaken apart, and the chess game stopped looking like it.
Shitou and Heiwa pushed the alley to greet each other.
Hutong secretly scolded the two of them for being shameless and pushed themselves out, but he still bit the bullet:
"I have met the eldest lady and the wife. I am the governor of the Jingying Town and the subordinate of the Duke."
Governor?
Bai Yan's chin raised slightly. Thinking of the alley mentioned in Su Cheng in the past two days, he glanced at the scattered chessboard from the corner of his eyes. He was secretly happy. He didn't have to lose, and he was in a good mood. So he raised the alley:
"Your father has been talking about you these days. Be careful when you go in."
Fan Xiaoyue was called by her wife. Seeing the big and thick generals, she respected herself so much, she felt a little happy.
He knew the governor named Hutong. Although he did not have a title, he was a well-known figure in the Beijing camp. Even his father was so angry that he was smoking.
I didn't expect to be so respectful to myself, because it was because of that person.
There were also the two military generals, Huaining Bo and Ding Xiang Bo, who were all brave generals who rose to the point of being promoted to the underworld after him, and were awarded titles for their military merits.
My father once said that because Su Cheng alone, His Majesty would at least grant several more titles, and these were all hereditary high-ranking nobles.
The Hutong wanted to thank the eldest lady for some advice, but Shi Tou dragged him away.
Leaving the pavilion by the lake, the alley complained to the two:
"The eldest lady was in a good mood when she saw me. She mentioned me. I would like to thank the eldest lady a few words."
Heiwa mocked the Hutong:
"But let it go. The young lady is about to lose chess. We just messed up her chess game. Then she was happy. She had no relationship with you and had no gaze. We were going to be scolded."
The stone also has the expression that you can't do anything if you are rotten wood:
"Hurry up, I'll see you, let's talk about what to do in the future. Don't you want to be awarded the title?"
"I, Lao Xie, Sun Yong, have been awarded the title, and Heiwa has also awarded the title. Don't you be jealous?"
Hutong nodded heavily when he heard this:
"Okay, let's listen to you two, see the prince."
The three of them entered the flower hall and saw Li Xian, the Marquis of Fengcheng who was sending Li Xian out of the flower hall. When Li Xian saw the three, he said kindly:
"It is said that the grandfather has outstanding military achievements. It can be explained by the generals under the grandfather. Two uncles and one polite official, this is only part of it. If the grandfather does not enter the pavilion, which one is qualified to enter the pavilion."
Su Cheng said with a smile:
"The Marquis of Fengcheng was joking. What does political struggle have to do with military merits? Whether we can join the cabinet or not, we still have to compete with the civil servants."
Li Xian laughed and stroked his beard:
"If I could have the knowledge of my grandfather, I wouldn't have to... cough cough cough."
Li Xian let out a series of coughs, and stopped talking. The old man stopped coughing and had no desire to speak. He said goodbye to Su Cheng and left the mansion.
The stone looked forward with a shy face:
"Master, why did you ask the Marquis of Fengcheng to come?"
Su Cheng looked at the alley huddled behind Heiwa:
"It's not for him, something that is incompetent. I still hide when I see me. I really think that if you leave me, you can be a good governor. If you have contact with me often, will Anyuan Hou dare to fight with you?"
The alley lowered its head.
Su Cheng turned around and entered the flower hall.
Heiwa pushed the Hutong, and Hutong followed in shame and entered the flower hall.
Shi Tou poured water for Su Cheng, but because he was not used to doing this job, he poured the water on Su Cheng's hands on the table.
Su Cheng glared at Shi Tou:
"Where is Yang Er, are you still going to visit Yicui Building with you these days?"
Shi Tou laughed:
"I won't go, I won't go, my grandfather, how is the matter in the alley? Has it been decided?"
"We know that there are many private transactions involved, but Hutong also knows that it is wrong and he is arrogant and has also stopped his arrogance. You just want to pull him this time for the sake of us."
Standing in the alley, I didn't dare to sit, my head hung down:
"Don't worry, I will never dare to be arrogant again in the future. We are just a naughty man. I think that if my grandfather is transferred to Xuanfu, I will not cause trouble for you if I can't take care of the matter of the Beijing camp."
Su Cheng took a sip of tea and then spit it out.
"Stone, you bastard, why do you add boiling water to me? Have you poured tea?"
The stone has never been poured into tea.
Putting down the teacup, Su Cheng glared at the helpless stone and continued to say to the alley:
"You entered the Nangong as the commander of the guards. This job is not easy to do. You must be mentally prepared. Yuan Bin was dismissed because he indulged in the inside and outside. You must strictly control this aspect."
"But you have to be moderate. Your Majesty is kind to the Supreme Emperor and does not want to treat his brothers harshly. However, the Supreme Emperor was indeed defeated and captured. He was a criminal of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty also has resentment towards the Supreme Emperor. When you control the inside and outside, you must strictly control the external ministers. Secret Scriptures and other secrets will be sealed."
Hutong nodded repeatedly.
Su Cheng pointed to a book next to him and said:
"These are some people who need attention. I asked you for it from Fengcheng Hou. Please keep it away and study it carefully. Tomorrow, it's time to go to Nangong to pay."
The alley responded one after another.
"Don't leave tonight, stay in the mansion for dinner."
Su Cheng ordered.
The alley is in a difficult situation:
"Where is the Zhenfu Camp?"
Shi Tou cursed:
"You really do not stick to the wall. Do you think your grandfather is asking you to have a meal, and your grandfather is asking you to meet your future subordinates and colleagues."
Meanwhile, Nangong.
Zhu Qizhen ordered Ren Li and Jiao Jing:
"The Duke of England's mansion was deposed, the Duke of Yangwu's mansion was detained, and Prince Xue could not leave the door. Tomorrow's court recommendation depends on the two Qing families. As for whom you connect, you have to think about it."
Ren Li agreed:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, although the British Duke's Mansion was deposed, his connections were still there. I have made arrangements and many nobles are involved. As long as the court promotion is launched tomorrow, this candidate will only be one of Prince Xue and Prince Jiao."
Jiao Jing also echoed:
Chapter completed!
