On February 17, Jiang Anyi came to Yufu as promised, and when Yu Shi dispersed, he took him to the Ministry of Rites to take up his post. Of course, Jiang Anyi can also come to the door on his own, but with the Hubu Shangshu with him, the effect will definitely be different.

This waiting time is a long time, under normal circumstances, Yu Zhijie will rush back for lunch, but Zhang Zhicheng came in the middle of noon, bringing back the news, today the Zichen Hall Chang Dynasty has not dispersed, and the Son of Heaven and the six departments and Jiuqing and other important ministers do not know what major matters are being discussed.

After having lunch with Jiang Anyi, Zhang Zhicheng went back to the household office on an errand. Jiang Anyi waited until the unitary time before Yu Zhijie came back with Zhang Zhicheng.

Seeing Jiang Anyi, Yu Zhijie said guiltily: "Anyi, I'm really sorry, today I was scattered, the saint left a meal, and after the meal, he discussed things for a while, and then rushed to the household department for the teacher to explain the business, so I don't have time to take you to the Ministry of Rites, tomorrow." ”

Jiang Anyi saw that Master Yu was tired, and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's the same for a few days in the morning and a few days in the evening, anyway, Yulu is indispensable to me." ”

"You'll lose a few taels of money. Zhiren wrote to tell me that you went back this time and got a soju out, ready to sell it to the Northern Desert, seeing the tone of Zhiren's letter, he was ecstatic, and praised you fiercely, asking him to praise people, I estimate that this money is indispensable. Yu Zhiren said with a smile.

In the imperial study of the palace, the little eunuchs quietly turned on the lamp, Shi Fangzhen frowned, and the things in the north were not optimistic.

Grain has been shipped to the north for sale one after another, and the price is low, and the dilemma of grain shortage in the northern desert has been temporarily alleviated. However, the territory of the Northern Desert is vast, the bitterness and happiness are uneven, and the slightly distant and remote places cannot be taken into account for a while, and the Northern Desert is composed of dozens of tribes, large and small, some of which are already gathering the people who control the bow and preparing to go south, and the Northern Desert King Ting Batu Wushi Khan has limited control over the tribes.

Chen Yinguang, the young secretary of Guanglu Temple, with a delegation of hundreds of people, had arrived at the king's tent and expressed Dazheng's goodwill to the Northern Desert Khan, and was willing to provide relief food to help the Northern Desert tide over the difficulties. Batu Wushi Khan's attitude was unclear after receiving the gifts, grain and grass, and Chen Yinguang asked for a separate meeting several times without success.

Batu Ushi Khan had two sons, the eldest of whom was Batu Kunpo with a tough attitude, and every time they met, he was aggressive and advocated going south. The second son, Batu Liman, showed a deep interest in Da Zheng's harmony, and met Chen Yinguang many times, and Chen Yinguang's secret report indicated that he wanted to win over Batu Liman, and strive to use him to persuade the Khan to turn the war into a jade silk.

The imperial study became brighter, and Shi Fangzhen realized that it was already dark, stood up and moved his muscles and bones, and his mind became clearer. The situation of preparing for war at the border pass is good, and 12 million taels of silver have been allocated from the household department to stabilize the army's morale, and the repair of the place that should be repaired is also being stepped up, and the equipment of the Ministry of Engineering has also been transported to the border city in time, which should be able to resist the northern desert for a while. Shi Fangzhen punched the bookcase, if I can give me two years of effort, I am afraid that it is not Da Zheng who has to worry about it, I want to personally conquer the Northern Desert and incorporate that grassland into my territory.

Feng Zhong, the eunuch with a palm print, walked in with a black wooden box, which was the report of Long Wei today. Long Wei's recital is divided into two kinds, the urgent report is reported at any time, and the report is reported every three days, and Long Wei's recital is countless every day, of course he can't see it in person, so Feng Zhong will choose it first, and then report it to him. If he wants to read the text, he will check the original manuscript.

The four eunuchs in the palace are all official ranks. Liu Weiguo Bingli eunuch, Feng Zhong Zhangyin eunuch, Tang Wenzhong secretary eunuch, Lu Mingli palace eunuch.

After presenting the wooden box on the table, Feng Zhong did not leave, and Liu Weiguo looked at each other and stood quietly on the other side. The four eunuchs in the palace are big or small on the surface, but Liu Weiguo is the most favored, and they are all by the side of the Son of Heaven, and the other three are naturally jealous of him.

After the sorted report, it was only two thin pieces of paper, Shi Fangzhen swept it down at a glance, and there was a line of words at the very end, "Jiang Anyi, a member of the Ministry of Rites, and Wang Zhizhi, the son of the Ministry of Rites, knew that the two women fought in Qiongxianglou."

Shi Fangzhen was stunned for a moment, and said with a dumb smile: "My champion Lang actually fought with the people, which is really insulting. ”

Turning his face and asking Feng Zhong, "Feng Zhong, Jiang Anyi has not been broken, I remember that he only sent Uncle Wang's daughter of Anyang into Beijing yesterday, why did he fight with the Wang family, he is really a troublemaker." ”

Shi Fangzhen knew that Wang Zhizhi was not because of his outstanding civil and military skills, but because the queen Wang Niangniang euphemistically asked for an official a few days ago. The queen's face can't be refuted, Shi Fangzhen asked people to check this Wang Zhizhi, and as a result, this eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are all fine, as for studying, the gentleman invited by the family was angry countless times, and the concubines married countless times, and they are about to catch up with the three palaces and six courts.

Seeing the Son of Heaven asking, Feng Zhong bowed down and said, "This Lord Jiang is fine, but the prince was slapped in the face." ”

"Oh", Shi Fangzhen was interested, and when he learned about Wang Zhizhi's temperament, his first thought was to slap this kid, but he didn't expect Jiang Anyi to do it for himself.

Feng Zhong said with a smile: "The old slave went and brought this report to make Banzai happy." ”

When Feng Zhong entered the study, he saw that the Son of Heaven had a gloomy face, and at this time he was smiling, obviously in a good mood, it was rare for the saint to be happy, and everyone was happy when the Son of Heaven was happy.

The Palm Seal Supervisor was not far from the Imperial Study, and in a moment, Feng Zhong trotted to deliver the report to the Son of Heaven. It is said that he doesn't need to go out in person to run errands, but if he can please the Son of Heaven, this little road is still worth running in person.

This report was written in detail, and even the story of "five hundred taels" was clearly told, Shi Fangzhen laughed heartily, "Five hundred taels, hahaha, I didn't expect this Jiang Anyi to be a witty person." ”

Liu Weiguo didn't dare to peek from the side. On this day, he was in a bad mood, and he laughed out loud at this moment, obviously Jiang Zhuangyuan was pleased. Liu Weiguo heard that Jiang Anyi's family was poor when he was young, and his family background was the same, he pitied himself for being a ten-year-old middle school child, and his family was ruined in a catastrophe, so he had to sell himself into the palace.

Scholars should help each other, maybe this Jiang Zhuangyuan can help himself. So, Liu Weiguo interjected with a smile: "Long live, this Jiang Zhuangyuan has a grudge against the family, and he offended the Li family in Renzhou, and he didn't get involved with the Wang family when he just entered Beijing." ”

Liu Weiguo's words entered Shi Fangzhen's heart, since he ascended the throne, Shi Fangzhen's biggest heart problem is the family, the family is powerful, and it can almost influence the government, and he has been skillfully turned invisible by the family several times. This time the clearing of the fields and acres is indeed a situation opened up by Jiang Anyi's chaotic splitting, and speaking of which, I have treated him a little badly by putting him in the Ministry of Rites.

However, this Jiang Anyi is close to the king of Anyang, although there is no obstacle in the report of Long Wei, but the matter involves imperial power, and it is better to blame than to let it go easily. Yu Zhijie is his teacher, it is impossible that he has not warned him, this son entered Beijing and brought the county lord with him, it is really incomprehensible, is it really just stunned?

However, judging from the 20th court meeting, the people of the Ze Party did not stand up and speak for Jiang Anyi, it seems that Jiang Anyi offended everyone in the field this time, and he still carried the black pot for me. Look at it again, if this person is really a quick knife, I might as well use him to clean up the court, so as not to have to do things all the time.

In a moment, Shi Fangzhen turned many thoughts in his heart, Liu Weiguo saw that the face of the Son of Heaven was uncertain, and he couldn't understand the mind of the Son of Heaven for a while, so he didn't dare to say more, and the imperial study was quiet.

Liu Weiguo reminded softly: "Long live, it's not early, it's time for dinner." ”

"It's been a busy day, and I'm hungry." Shi Fangzhen stood up, walked out of the imperial study, and walked along the corridor to Kun'an Palace.

Every five steps in the corridor, there are palace maids and eunuchs carrying lanterns to stand and illuminate, and suddenly a gust of wind blows, blowing the lanterns swaying, and the shadows of the pillars flickering, like countless black shadows scurrying.

Shi Fangzhen stood on his legs, remembering that Wang Zhizhi was coming, and he promised the queen that he would finish Wang Zhizhi's affairs in the next few days, and the queen would definitely ask about it when she went to Kun'an Palace at this moment. Shi Fangzhen is tired of Wang Zhizhi, such fools are all officials in the court, what has become of my court.

The front corridor is divided into branches, and Shi Fangzhen walks down the branches, and there is Shujing Palace. Liu Weiguo followed closely behind the Son of Heaven, secretly complaining in his heart, Kunning Palace had notified the queen mother to take over, but Banzai transferred to Shujing Palace, how could this end.

Walking a little slowly, he called a eunuch standing by the corridor and said softly: "Go to Kunning Palace and send a letter to Niangniang, just say long live the temporary arrival of Shujing Palace." ”

Shujing Palace, you can hear the crisp sound of the second prince reading from afar, "...... Kindness and compassion make times of separation. Righteousness and honesty retreat, and the ...... of bandits are lost"

Shi Fang was really happy, waved his hand to signal that the palace maid and eunuch did not need to follow, and quietly approached the main hall and looked in from the window lattice. The hall was as bright as day, Huang Niangniang took the embroidery work, watching Shi Weijie read while embroidering things, and the eunuch Huang Xi put his hands behind his back, shaking his head and dangling on the side, like a teacher.

Kunning Palace, estimating that the Son of Heaven was about to arrive, the queen ordered the palace maid to put the food on the table, and shouted: "An Shou, take my younger brother to clean his hands, and when the father comes, he will start the meal, so that you don't have to be hungry." ”

A little eunuch rushed in, knelt on the ground and said, "Yu Niangniang, long live to go to Shujing Palace." ”

The brocade in his hand fell to the ground, leaned over to pick it up, and the queen said casually: "I know, retreat." ”

Sitting at the table, looking at the table full of food, Queen Wang was completely tasteless, and reluctantly smiled: "An Shou, you and the prince should eat quickly, you have waited for so long, you are hungry." ”

Princess Anshou complained: "Father is really, he said that he would eat with us and went elsewhere, brother, let's eat." ”

Queen Wang leaned back in her chair and hid herself in the shadow of the pillar cast by the light, in the shadow, Queen Wang's face was gloomy and ugly, and she whispered to a palace maid beside her: "Go and ask, why did Banzai suddenly think of going to Shujing Palace?" ”

Looking at the gobbling up of her children, Queen Wang's worries became even heavier. She married the then prince at the age of sixteen, and now her eldest daughter, Princess Anshou, is fifteen years old and has reached the age of marriage. Although he has a deep relationship with the Son of Heaven, his old age and decay cannot be compared with those young and beautiful palace maids, and the number of times the Son of Heaven comes to Kun'an Palace is gradually decreasing.

It is said that Huang Shuilan is only three years younger than herself, and she has never served the king with color, so why do you always run to her during this time. Queen Wang's brows became tighter and tighter, and she had already heard the rumors, saying that the Son of Heaven was praising Shi Chongjie for his intelligence and was not under Wei'er.

Hmph, could it be that her son is older and has an idea, if that's the case, I might as well let her know what it means to know the master of the harem.
