Bastards are difficult

In the blink of an eye, the new year is coming, Zhang Xiu originally thought that this year he had to go to Anningbo's mansion to celebrate the new year - even if his parents were not around, Anningbo would not have a bad reputation for such things, or Mrs. Anningbo, this lady has always been sensible and Zhou Quan, on weekdays, even if it's adding a piece of ice in summer and burning charcoal in winter, he never forgets to take care of Zhang Xiu - but when it's over, he doesn't have to go.

Because Zhang Qian came back with his wife and children.

This is entirely thanks to His Majesty today.

Since the death of the crown prince, the emperor has become more and more free-spirited. Not only civil and military officials, but also the princes and grandchildren who are waiting for election have been tossed hard.

It snowed so heavily a few days ago, and the Emperor Da Asahi was so excited to take everyone to hunt. After a few senior officials advised them, the emperor gave him the words of the king's heart, and someone else Speaking of how could His Majesty forget his ancestral homeland for fun, the emperor directly rewarded twenty big boards and then flung his sleeves away. Before leaving, he only said one sentence, "I have no wives, concubines or children." The implication is that I want to follow my future The son cultivated feelings to go.

When the emperor travels, even the messy white dragon fish clothes are inevitable, not to mention that this majesty is going to bring his wife, concubine and ministers with him, and the harem is suddenly in chaos.

Finally, we set off before the emperor got impatient. Before the emperor got impatient, there was no way for the emperor to go out without one, two or three months of rectification. Although this time it was in the suburbs, it was possible to leave in half a day, and the efficiency was very high. .

But no one expected that when the snow stopped at the hunting ground, the guard of the hunting ground released all the prey, and the emperor lost his interest again, so the emperor waved his hand and everyone blew the cold wind for a long time, and a piece of rabbit hair Didn't touch it, and came back again.

The same is true for the feudal lords of the Fenghuo Opera. As for foreign officials coming to Beijing to report on their duties or being directly transferred, it is even more common. Don’t you see how many good heads landed at the entrance of the vegetable market because of bribery.

Among them is Zeng Xiangguo, the old man of the three dynasties who is highly respected in the court and China and has a clean sleeve. It is said that the former emperor will be the new emperor, if it is not for the support of the old man, the emperor's throne will not be stabilized so quickly.

This Zeng Xiangguo never took sides, he was a die-hard imperial party, but whoever ascended to the throne supported whom, the other princes and princes did not give him face at all, so the three emperors had a good impression of him.

But no matter how good the impression is, people are too old to be greedy for power for the sake of their descendants. The emperor has been on the throne for more than 30 years now, and this one has been in power for more than 30 years.

The emperor is also a person who misses the past, and Mr. Zeng is still a person who was left behind by the first emperor. He always has three points of respect and three points of gratitude for Zeng Xiangguo, but no amount of respect and gratitude will be consumed by the passage of time. Coming from this sect, Kuang Zeng Xiangguo himself is not a seamless person. For example, he is not greedy for money, but for women. It is said that the cry of babies was often heard in the courtyard three years ago.

If you have too many children, you can't manage it, and Zeng Xiang's original wife is still dead for more than ten years. The step-wife is only two or three years old, and her family background is not very good. , although she looks good, but Zeng Xiang is a greedy and lustful person. She has been married to the Zeng family for more than ten years, except for the first two or three years when she was favored, she didn't even get the right to be a housekeeper.

Putting aside the point of lust, love of power can be regarded as an old man who is obsessed with the authorities. He is always afraid that the emperor will forget himself, and he is also afraid that his descendants will accidentally offend the emperor. He always thinks about waiting and waiting. Impatient.

In particular, Zeng Xiang has many sons and more grandchildren. Zeng Xiang is busy with state affairs, so he can't help but relax the discipline of his descendants, so most of them rely on their increased power to bully and dominate the market.

However, Prime Minister Zeng has a lot of disciples, even Yushitai has his disciples, but there is no one who impeached the Zeng family. I don't know that the Zeng family has reached the point where my Zeng family is like me.

In the capital, Zeng Xiang's name is actually more useful than the emperor.

The most taboo thing to do evil is to do evil to your immediate boss.

Not to mention that the emperor was scolded when he asked someone to stop him.

The emperor was annoyed and asked people to investigate to find out how domineering Zeng Xiang's descendants have become. A distant nephew can bully men and women in the name of Zeng Xiang's grandnephew, not to mention that Zeng Xiang's disciples are old, and Zeng Xiang himself is good. But he can't teach the disciples to be like him, so some people are greedy for money, playing tricks, buying and selling officials and titles.

The emperor was very annoyed when he found out about this, this is his Jiang family, when did the surname Zeng have the final say?

Even if Zeng Xiang has meritorious deeds, it cannot erase the fault of his lack of strict control. Moreover, Zeng Xiang is indeed getting old, and he is becoming more and more stubborn.

Therefore, after a stupefied young man in Yushitai impeached Zeng Xiangai's grandson, robbed the daughter of the people, killed two people, and even bullied the market by force to buy and sell, he was sentenced to exile immediately after a little investigation and some evidence For three thousand miles, no one is allowed to intercede.

Zeng Quite passed out, but when he woke up, he was persuaded by the emperor to return home on the grounds that Zeng Xiang was weak and needed to take good care of himself. The official position was still there, but the rights in his hands were confiscated. For treatment, it is necessary to make Zeng Xiang healthy, rosy and alive before worrying about state affairs.

This is tantamount to dismissing Prime Minister Zeng's position in a disguised form. Anyone with a little discernment will understand that the people in the court were panicked for a while.

Then those who were interested discovered that the various changes in the emperor began when the prince passed away and the children of the royal family entered the capital.

The emperor used to be a wise king, although now he has convulsions from time to time, and many people have been cut off from his horse, but everyone is like this. When the imperial power is stable, as long as he does not make mistakes, he would rather hide and hide.

Besides, although the emperor had convulsions, he didn't do anything that the angry and stupid emperor did. On the contrary, most of the things he killed were conclusive evidence, and the civil and military officials had nothing to say.

But he made such a fuss, and the hall was cleared up a lot. The group of people standing in line, fishing in troubled waters, and watching the show with a cold eye, no longer dare to mess around. On the contrary, those who are usually suppressed and sent far away are considered to have a bright future—— The emperor is really rewarding meritorious deeds now.

In the past, foreign officials did not come to Beijing unless they were dispatched and did not report on their duties. Now, no matter whether it is the official to the ninth rank, the chief judge or the foreign commissioner, there are always about ten people coming to Beijing to report on their duties every month.

In contrast, there are fewer people like Zhang Qian who refused to let him enter at the beginning and then specifically ordered him to go to Beijing to report on his work.

In the eyes of everyone, Zhang Qian must have failed to do his errands well, and the reason why he didn't make an order to win at that time was just a suspended sentence.

Therefore, when the news came to Uncle Anning's mansion, whether it was the seemingly confused Mrs. Anning or the shrewd Mrs. Anning, they all sent messages to reunite his family. All kinds of daily necessities arranged by the wife are gone.

The two little uncles were so worried that they came to accompany him from time to time, fearing that he would worry too much at such a young age, and desperately tried to make him change his mind.

Zhang Xiu's consolation to the two little uncles was very useful, as for Uncle Anning's mansion, he just sneered.

As soon as he entered the capital, he knew that no one in Uncle Anning's mansion was charitable. As far as Mrs. Anningbo's style was concerned, it was more just for the sake of the gifts his father gave every year. reputation.

No sooner had Zhang Qian had any signs of trouble, the Uncle Anning's mansion immediately hid for a while, in order to draw a clear line with them.

Zhang Xiuben also doesn't like the style of the uncle's mansion. People in the world are mostly red-topped and white. He understands the coldness of the world, but secretly feels a little relieved.

As a good young man with one heart and one mind, it can’t hurt to have a warm and false cousin who invites you to brothels and kilns every time, and what’s more hurt is that this master is still a crook, he goes to look at the white flesh Nausea?Do not make jokes.

Jiang Minghao also specially came to message him, saying that the emperor actually liked his father quite a lot, so don't worry.

For such a man of few words, he could go to the emperor to find out the news about him. Zhang Xiu couldn't tell the irony in his heart. There were signs, but he was powerless to stop them.

And he also understands that if the emperor really doesn't like a person, it's a matter of one sentence, and he will deliberately order someone to change the route?It's ridiculous that everyone in the world was frightened by the head at Caishikou, but they didn't think that if the emperor really didn't like a person, he would tolerate it like this?When did the emperor become so patient?In addition, Zhang Qian's official position is regarded as the emperor of the upper land, but if a plaque falls in the capital, four or five people will be killed.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Qian has no qualifications for the emperor to clean up patiently.

So Zhang Xiu is really not worried.

He is now worried about what to do if his mother and two younger brothers are so exhausted.

The mother is okay, after all, she has traveled a long way, and this is the first time for the two children.

In these miserable days of worry, entanglement, excitement, and anticipation, Zhang Qian finally went to Beijing on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month. He didn't bother to go home, so he asked his servants to go home and inform Zhang Xiu, and then he went to the palace to meet the saint. up.

As for the mother, two younger brothers, and a large amount of luggage, it will be near the end of the year.

Zhang Xiu, who had been nervous for almost a month, finally felt relieved, and hurriedly ordered his servants to prepare things for Zhang Qian to meet him.
