Chapter 156 The meeting ended successfully

The weather is getting colder and colder. The north has entered mid-November, and there is already a breath of winter. Looking at the gloomy and cold weather, it will probably snow in a few days.

Yang Ling looked at Gu Dayong’s distant sedan chair and gradually disappeared into the twilight. He sighed and turned to the house. The old housekeeper directed his family to slowly close the door of the courtyard.

It’s been almost a year. Who would have thought of this bizarre chance in just one year of kung fu? Crossing the Moon Gate, the vines have already turned yellow, and the water in the pool does not return to the charm of spring and summer. The ruined lotus leaves are drooping weakly on the water.

The sound of the flute in front of you came along, and the tune was light and sweet. That was Cheng Qiyun teaching Yu Tangchun and Xue Limei.

Cheng Qiyun’s piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are very proficient. Not only is Gao Wenxin better in this respect, but Yu Tangchun and Xue Limei, who are good at singing and dancing instruments, calligraphy and painting articles, are also slightly inferior. According to the news, the two little girls have treated each other like a master since the moment they itched their skills in front of them.

When the curtain lifted, Yang Ling flashed into the first room of the flower hall. Yu Tangchun was sitting on the Luohan bed and was gently tuning the strings. When Yang Ling came in, he sat down on his knees and smiled sweetly: “Master is back “.

Xue Limei on the first right side has drawn shoes to the ground and removed Yang Tuan’s cotton-padded robes that she wore when she was just going out. Yang Ling gently rubbed his palms and smiled: “Well, still learning piano flute? Now the factory is developing rapidly, less than half a year, the power has reached Yungui. I have told Huang Lao to take the old shopkeepers in the factory two days later. Please come, when you teach them the bookkeeping method that I taught you, the money is rolling, there is no good account room, it is really a delay. “

Yu Tangchun and the two answered. When I remembered that Yang Ling taught the bookkeeping method, there was a sister who was close to each other, an immortal. Now the two of them got what they wanted, and they married the enamoured man. Can’t help but be dim.

Yang Ling saw that the two of them suddenly looked down and understood what they thought. Can not help but also secretly sighed. Since the dramatic expansion of the power of Neichang, he has made Yu Tangchun hand-painted a portrait of Tang Yixian, and he has been telling Neichang up and down to secretly inquire into the girl’s whereabouts.

He was so careful that he thought that if the person who saved Tang Yixian had a bad idea because of her beautiful appearance, she forced her to take it as an existing one. At this time, she searched through the government office with great fanfare, and it was impossible to guarantee that the gangster would not kill someone. So Yang Ling had to secretly act, but so far there is no news

Yang Ling sighed softly and waved his hand: “You go back to the room first, Master Cheng and I have something to talk about.”

The second daughter of Yutang Chun promised, and quietly flashed out of the house. Cheng Qiyun turned the purple flute in her hand and gently pinched the flute tube with three plain white fingers. She raised her eyebrows in surprise: “Is the matter planned by the adults falling?”

Yang Ling stood in the hall and shook his head gently. He said: “We have just established foundations in coastal areas such as Shandong, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangxi. How can we grasp the details of those local giants so quickly, I am afraid the news I want will not be passed back in a while.”

Cheng Qiyun wore a servant girl in Tsing Yi, but sat cross-legged on the bed, playing with the purple bamboo flute in her hand, and thoughtfully said, “Why do you have to wait for this matter?”

Yang Lingdao: “Otherwise, the DPRK and China have gradually stabilized, and I plan to start exploring now. First, take advantage of the opportunity of traveling all over the world to create public opinion and build the foundation for our actions.”

Yang Ling smiled gently: “The current emperor is enlightened and upright, and he likes novelty. He is by no means a conservative king. Besides, he trusts me and Liu Jin the most. When I tell the eight tigers, I will admonish the emperor together, and then supplement it. In order to prevent the generals from embarking on their own measures, the first reason to ban the sea can be eliminated.

But all the time. The emperor is most afraid of the public opinion of the hundred officials, they have the right to speak. The Shilin elite can be called at any time to make a powerful response, making the emperor fearful and fearful of becoming a faint prince in the eyes of his officials.

But all things in the world are mutually exclusive. The so-called mice eat elephants, elephants eat tigers, tigers eat cats, and cats eat mice. The Shilin people cherish his reputation more than the emperor. They are not afraid of the emperor’s big stick, but they are afraid of the curse of the people.

We use the horse and carriage that we have in our hands to spread the world, and we can get in touch with the opportunities of the Three Religions and Nine Streams to spread the news and create powerful public opinion to restrain them. They must think twice before they raise objections, not to mention waiting for you to bring someone back from Jiangnan. They are a big step, at least half of them will retreat, and this third reason will disappear. “

Cheng Qiyun seemed to like to watch his confident and energetic spirit. Although he felt that there were many details to be discussed, he did not want to raise it at this time.

A pair of crystal clear water eyes with a slight smile, watching Yang Ling quietly, after listening to Yang Ling’s words, she laid the flute on her red lips and tapped her jade finger, a series of light and beautiful tunes came out, and then suddenly Only.

Cheng Qiyun smiled and smiled: “When the people in the coastal cities of Fu took the evidence, this fourth reason also disappeared, and then let them share some benefits, but it will become our help. But ……. What about the second reason?

The contradiction between the **** and the foreign minister is simply impossible to solve. In addition to the negligence of the foreign minister, the emperor is also the most important reason. The emperor reuses the inner **** and the foreign minister falls out of favor. , Whoever controls the king will have the power, not everyone will be subdued because of fame and fortune. “

Yang Ling’s relaxed expression disappeared, and he said in a long while: “By the power of the king, the power of the eight tigers, the name of the people, the differentiation of the hundred official system. There is no harmony and harmony, let everyone Satisfied, immortal people, had to sweep them out! “

Cheng Qiyun Liu Mei picked it up and praised the festival: “This is the person who has become a major event. It is the blessing of Qi Yun to be able to follow adults.”

Yang Ling took a deep look at her and couldn’t guess how sincere she was in her words. After a moment of silence, she chuckled and said: “Tomorrow I will ask Qi Bahu and Jin Yiwei to discuss this matter. You should not be public now. Make an appearance. Disguise as a maid and listen to it, otherwise, with your curious temperament, you will have to keep asking questions afterwards. “

Cheng Qiyun’s sly and suspicious and unbelievable problems have been formed for many years. Sometimes she knows that the matter is related, and there is no need to inquire, or she must understand the matter, otherwise she will not be able to eat well or fall asleep. Kind of heart disease. But it was difficult to restrain, and Yang Ling could not see it.

She smiled slightly shyly and lowered her eyes in response.

Yang Ling said lightly again: “If you understand human nature, I am not as good as you. The two college graduates were demoted back to their hometowns, and the reaction of the 100 officials of the DPRK and China was indeed guessed by you.”

Cheng Qiyun’s eyes widened, and the curiosity again came back, and immediately asked, “What reaction?”

Yang Ling sighed: “Although they are very dissatisfied with Liu and Xie’s resignation. But only twenty-one people dare to ask for help, which is much less than your thirty.”

Cheng Qiyun laughed softly and smiled: “Adults should not be so careless. Those who refuse to come forward are people who are good at forbearance. It does not mean that he has obeyed us. Although it will not cause confusion for a while, it will always be inevitable to procrastinate in the future.” .

Yang Ling turned to the door with a smile, and responded: “You can get them, as long as the pirates and the sea ban are done well. How can they be less aware of current affairs?”

He walked to the door and looked back at Cheng Qiyun again, remembering something like: “Tomorrow … try to be as ugly as possible.”

“Yeah …?” Cheng Qiyun nodded before looking back. He couldn’t help raising his eyes and looked at the door in surprise. Yang Ling had picked the curtain and flashed out.

Cheng Qiyun combined five fingers together, clenched the Zizhu flute, and tapped twice on the edge of the table where the piano was set. The tight lips curled up slowly.

In the “Cai Ju Xuan” on the right side of the middle hall, the candles are brightly lit, and all of them are up-and-coming upstarts. Yang Ling sat with Liu Jin on the left head, and Mu Bin next to the right. The twelve-person cups were staggered, and it was so hot. The charcoal fire was red on the table, and the copper pot on the carved floor was tumbling with hot air.

Qian Ning and Gu Dayong and others have just ascended to a high position, happily dazzled, and drank violently. Cheng Qiyun and another maid were wearing Yuehua skirts and pink padded jackets. Stand aside and hold the pot to serve wine.

Qian Ning is so fishy, ​​when he first saw two maids come in. Suddenly, his eyes were caught by Cheng Qiyun’s enchanting posture, but when he saw Cheng Qiyun’s face, he turned his head immediately and would not look at her again.

Cheng Qiyun’s respect, even Yang Ling felt sorry for the guests, even if a pair of apricot eyes became somehow a triangle eye, even a few pimples on the tip of the nose I recognized, but your pock is too Is there more? It really affects appetite.

Most of the eyes of the people were slightly dizzy. Only Yang Ling, Liu Jin and Mou Bin still had clear eyes. The three of them had their own concerns and naturally refused to drink too much.

Mou Bin is a child of the Jinyiwei family and has a high sense of arrogance. He has always been attached to the East Factory by Zhang Xiu and other commanders and officials, but the East Factory is the first to look forward to the original level of Jinyiwei. The young and middle-aged leaders. Now that he has turned to Yang Ling, he has successfully overthrowed Zhang Xiu’s team. In the future, where Jinyiwei will go, he must understand Yang Ling’s intentions.

If Yang Ling still wanted him to succumb to the inner factory, he would do things for Yang Ling like he used to be the East Factory ’s follower, but he did n’t want to, but Yang Ling now has the power and prestige far above him, and he also has the tax supervisor and Jinyi Weiyamen. Many people can only eat enough by extortion, and he does not want to bear that notoriety.

How to maintain a relatively independent position, Yang Ling will not share some of his benefits, and how much he has to pay. If these things are not resolved, he will not be able to explain to his followers.

Liu Jin, the internal authority of the Si Lijian, has been cut in half. Originally, as the chief of the Si Lijian, he has military power, financial power, and a “red-credit” regime. What now? The military power is four quarters of the world. In addition to him, there are Zhang Yong, Miao Kui and Yang Ling. Do n’t look at Yang Ling ’s failure to invite Miao Kui today. Let ’s look at the matter of arresting Si Lijian that day. Miao Kui and Yang Ling are separated.

The financial power is now completely in Yang Ling’s hands, and it is only with the money that the troops are used. Zhang Yong and Yang Ling obviously walk closer than him. As for ‘approval of redemption ……. Alas, as far as the words he knows, what opinions can he put forward on the vote of the bachelor ’s degree, he will not sign anything other than agreeing to the two words.

Liu Jin now has no ambition to overturn Yang Ling and seek greater rights. But after sitting on this dreamy throne, he suddenly realized that he was powerless no matter what power he exercised, and he couldn’t help losing his heart. At this time, he only hoped that others would get drunk quickly and ask Yang Ling for advice. 3

Yang Ling just lifted the cup, and Cheng Qiyun stood behind her side and bent her waist. She quickly filled the cup for him, and glanced at him with eyes.

Yang Ling did not squint. Not daring to look up at her pockmarked face, he lifted his cup and smiled to Liu Jin: “Grandpa Liu, congratulations to my father-in-law’s promotion to the office of prime minister, please ask my father-in-law to drink this cup.”

Liu Jinqian smiled and said: “What kind of internal affairs are all courts of the courtiers. Our family only knows to serve the emperor, but these things are not understood, Master Yang made fun of it.”

Yang Lingzheng said: “Where is joking, Grandpa Liu. We are friends. Some of us can’t hide you, and the internal phase is highly weighted. If the grandfather doesn’t do anything, it will become Wang Yue’s second, completely empty. Except With this name, it’s nothing. “

Liu Jin twitched for a while. Set his mind and said: “This … our family has just taken up this position. Many facts are not clear. According to adults, what should our family do?”

Yang Ling smiled and said in earnest: “The father-in-law is in charge of ‘approving the red power’, but this red is not the final decision. In particular, most of the cabinet votes are to put forward a few opinions. Please ask the emperor for details.

If you can’t pick out the most suitable for the emperor’s wishes, but also make the hundred official hearts pleasingly suggest. Then you can retaliate the cabinet again and again. It ’s okay to do it once or twice, over time. Isn’t the father-in-law prestige? When the emperor is displeased, you will inevitably be transferred from the chief of court, is it right? “

Jiao Fang nodded with a smile, Liu Jin clenched his palm nervously, and said in a sincere way: “Our family and adults are in the same boat together, can’t be considered an outsider, Master Yang can teach me?”

Yang Ling sincerely said: “Grandpa Liu, I heard that you have no contact with the cabinet cleric Lee. According to Yang’s opinion, fairness should be respected by the prince Li. You must know that his vote is for your approval. That is mutually restrictive. If the two of you can’t ‘come together’, how can this matter be done?

In addition, the father-in-law cannot arbitrarily reply to the cabinet ’s proposed twists and turns. If he does not answer the question, will he not make the foreign ministers joke? What is the dignity of my father-in-law? There are so many people at the feet of the emperor. The father-in-law is too busy to find someone who can trust you and can help you. If you have any troubles, you can discuss it with your own people and then approve it, so that you can stand firm. “

Yang Ling made an idea for him, but he did not say that he and Jiao Fang, whom he had recommended, were friendly to each other. He advised him not to get angry with Li Dongyang, and asked him to find a talented person to help him with the details and never recommend it. This When Liu Jin comes, there is still a sense of caution. Naturally, I believe that Yang Ling has some good intentions.

He was grateful and said: “Master Yang said that some good words made our family feel uncomfortable. Li Dongyang is a bachelor. That talent is definitely a hundred times stronger than ours. I will pay more respect to him in the future. After our family went back, we looked for someone who could be used. Afterwards, the correct answers would look like the same, so that we would not belittle the court. “

Yang Ling smiled and said, “It’s just that, I can only do it step by step and cope with the errands. Hey! This world is unfair. Father, look at those bachelors, even if someone remembers him a hundred years later, chant him, spread his land. Deeds, but … In ten years’ time, how many people still remember the inner court Wang Yue? Just now, how many people still remember which former prime minister was Wang Yue? “

Liu Jin’s face was slightly reddish, and he said in an honest way: “Ah! Our inner court is a minion serving the emperor. We are not as good as ours, but we are indispensable in our past. Which round will we get? “

Yang Lingdao said: “Not exactly, this time the official went to Jiangnan this time, it has been more than 100 years. The Jiangnan people mentioned the three treasures eunuchs, which is still familiar to him, his deeds, that is everyone’s treasure. Oh. By the way, Qi Yun is the official maid’s little maidservant in Jiangnan, so is it, Qi Yun. “

Cheng Qiyun gently kicked his chair with his toes, and then said unwillingly: “Yes, my lord, the three treasures eunuchs are in our Jiangnan, but even three-year-old children know it, not to say that we ordinary people . It is those gentlemen of the official family and the gentlemen who study, who are very respectful of his elderly people. “

Liu Jin and several semi-drunken people were too hot to listen, and even his chest stood up. After a long while, Liu Jin sighed lightly, enviously envying him: “Grandpa Zheng … Where can our lords compare? In the next few hundred years, some people may remember his great achievements in going to the west, we ……… oh! “

Several eunuchs collapsed their heads in despair. The eunuchs had an inferiority complex. The ancients paid attention to the lack of filial piety. There was no future, and no incense was passed on. It was silent after death. When I think of it, even if these eunuchs who are greedy for money and greed are not silently hurt? If there is a chance to be famous in history, their coveted desire is stronger than the foreign minister.

However, eunuchs are just emperor’s slaves, and they are also occasionally discriminated by the bureaucrats, plus they have great insights and university knowledge. For hundreds of years, there is no one who can benefit the people, so while envious of Zheng He ’s merits, many people continue to be scolded for money and power.

Yang Ling smiled softly: “Emperor Yongle’s decree created the great name of the Grand Duke of Zhenggong, the luck of others ……., this time when the official went to the south of the river, he found a malpractice, if we are admonished. Please emperor If you want to get rid of it, a hundred years later, your reputation may still be above Zheng He. “

“Oh?” Liu Jin shook his face stunnedly, and he was heart-warming for a moment. The eyes of several eunuchs like Ma Yongcheng and Gu Dayong next to him brushed on him.

Yang Ling continued: “The emperor handed over the tax supervisor to the official, and broke the financial path of Si Lijian and Jin Yiwei. At that time, Wang Yue and Zhang Xiu were in power. Yang hadn’t figured out what happened yet. But now they are all from my family, I I was a little bit sad in my heart, but now if the tax authority is returned to the court chief, I am afraid that my subordinates will not be comforted.

If this malpractice that I said can be eliminated, not only can it be well-known, but also ……… the financial resources are rolling, and all your problems can be solved. “

As soon as these words were spoken, Bahu, Mou Bin, Qian Ning and Jiao Fangdi’s eyes lit up, and a pair of Kong Fangxiong shone brightly in their eyes.

After sending off the eight tigers and others, Cheng Qiyun slowly walked back behind Yang Ling.

Yang Ling turned his head and said with a smile: “You have been tuned, and you have been a maid for a night. It seems that these people still agree with our suggestions. The emperor was not always rigid, and they first blow the wind around the emperor. Things are much easier to handle. “

Cheng Qiyun said softly: “Well, for those who do not learn, do not learn, do not think about Li Shu, Xiaoyi is not as good as temptation, and adults take the same approach. It is easy for them to get back to their hearts. Naturally …. But should it be prepared to return to Jinling? “

Yang Ling said: “Almost, now Qian Ning heard that there is money to make, and can’t wait to rush to Jinling. Jin Yiwei has deep roots everywhere, but with their help, the search for evidence of secret trade between the coastal gentry must be very good. Finish soon.

I rested for half a month, and it was okay to pretend to go out. Minger, I will look for the opportunity to explore Li Xiaoshi ’s tone first. If he has little resistance, you should go back to Jiangnan first. “

Cheng Qiyun was silent. When a gust of wind came, she suddenly felt a bit chilly.

Yang Ling glanced back unconsciously, the light was dim in the distance, and she couldn’t see her face in the night. Yang Ling said: “You live in the south of the Yangtze River and do not accept the water and soil of the north. You suffered from the wind and cold two days ago, but you have lost your skill in writing, but you haven’t seen the cold in the north yet. If you are sick, go to Jinling as soon as possible. “

Suddenly, Cheng Qiyun felt like a warm current was flowing into her, and the cold wind blowing felt soft. She bit her lip and said gently: “Yes, that humble job waits for the news of the adults tomorrow and hurries back to Jinling.”

Yang Ling yelled and said: “I told the small kitchen to leave you some food and go to bed earlier. If it is cold today, the Kang has not yet burned.”

Cheng Qiyun squatted down for blessings, and as soon as he heard, Yang Ling strode towards the end of the corridor. Far from the wind, the lamp shakes, dragging Yang Ling’s long figure to her …….

Yang Ling walked through the flower hall and stood in the patio with his arms wide open and took a breath of cold air. He felt a little tired, and wanted to return to his room to sleep. Suddenly thinking of entertaining Bahu and others today, he didn’t have time to give Gao Wenxin acupuncture. He hesitated and saw that Gao Wenxin’s sister’s courtyard was still lit and walked over.

The days are almost the same, and this treatment does not have to be justified on that day. Maybe the hard work of more than half a month, three of the wives can always have children for themselves?

Yang Ling thought. There was a sweet smile in the corner of my mouth, um ……… I’ll cure it for two weeks, keep it a little longer, even if it is longer, the side effects of this remedy of Wen Xin is really a bit terrible.

Yang Ling walked into the courtyard door. Inconvenient to continue to go inside, he was about to call Gao Wenxin out, and suddenly heard Gao Wenxin raise his voice inside and said, “I have nothing to do with him? Why should he insult me ​​like this?”

Yang Ling listened to her fiercely, her voice trembling slightly, but she was startled. He stopped there, only listening to the voice of a man in the room: “Sister, his family is from Shuxiangmendi and Guanjuan, you know he is quite prestigious in the place, today I heard people say that, my brother is studying in the prefecture I feel like I can’t lift my head.

I know my elder sister is not that kind of person, but Yang … Master Yang now … what people are you making with now? You have also seen, how can anyone have a good reputation? Dao people have been divided into groups since ancient times. Things gather together, to say that others are catching the wind and catching the shadow, but what’s going on with this open eye?

Sister, or … aren’t you and Mrs. Yang a sister? I beg her to let Master Yang come forward, but now it is a matter of saying a word with the emperor. Ask the emperor to forgive your slavery. Let’s go far, don’t have any entanglement with the Yang family. The reputation of the Gao family has come to nothing. Despite being involved in the court, the people in these ten miles and eight villages still respect us. Let ’s not follow the Yang family to make people scold ……. “.

“Shut up! You are also a scholar, and you don’t understand the truth about your gratitude? The sister’s life was saved by an adult. You are no longer a minion in Tsing Yi, who sent you to study in the prefecture?” Gao Wen was furious and sternly asked.

The voice of another woman in the room persuaded: “Sister, brother is young and ignorant, don’t blame him ……”.

Yang Ling heard that Gao Wenxin and Gao Wenlan were talking. Gao Wenju turned out to be a scholar. In addition to being an ordinary servant, Yang Ling could work cheaply, so he sent him to study in the prefecture, hoping that he would get a merit in the future.

Listening to this tone, Gao Wenju listened to his own gossip outside, hey! Such readers don’t understand right or wrong, is it good or bad, is it so terrible? Who is making the rumor in Gao Wen’s heart?

Yang Ling gas rushed upwards, just wanted to step up, thinking of Gao Wenxin’s current identity, psychology must be sensitive, she would have to forget her own cousin, if you go in and swear, it will inevitably make her sad.

Yang Ling sighed deeply, looked up at the starry stars for a long while, and nothing in the room was in his ears. Starry sky, low-pressure sky, they have existed since ancient times, brightly in front of their eyes, seems to step on the roof and reach out to take it off.

Yang Ling sighed with depression and smiled slightly: “Don’t worry about him, those who are clear are self-clearing, those who are turbid are self-turbid, and those who really care about their own minds are enough to recognize the true self.”

He turned to leave, and Gao Wen in the room choked with anger and angrily said: “Okay, you are a real reader, you should leave to protect your innocence. Since the adult came here, repair the bridge and make up the road, never disturb the people. , People’s hearts? I don’t believe people are just as blind as you in reading and reading! Let go, I’m going to acupuncture for adults. “

The door opened with a loud clatter, and under the lintel, in the red light, I saw Gao Wenxin’s Cui Yiluo skirt, slender and graceful, and the tears on her cheeks were shining.

She saw Yang Ling standing at the door, stopped in surprise, and uttered panic: “Master”, she wiped tears in a hurry, and wanted to step forward, but she was still blocked at the door. Fearing that Yang Ling was angry, he rushed in and punished her cousin.

Yang Ling smiled slightly, stepped forward and took her hand, said casually: “Let’s go, Yang Mou is here to ask the goddess doctor to give a wonderful hand.”

He took the overwhelmed Gao Wenxin Shi Shiran out of the yard and walked to his bedroom. He was calm, with a gentle smile on his face, but he was completely angry.
