Chapter 341 The Hot Family

Zhang Xu finished the tofu nao in front of him and ate a basket of steamed buns. He was satisfied and stood up.

The servants following Zhang Xu immediately gave the money.

Following Zhang Xu out of the small shop.

This shop is famous for its tofu nao and steamed buns.

Every day, Zhang Xu would spend a quarter of an hour walking here slowly, eating a bowl of tofu nao and steamed buns.

Zhang Xu likes Ye Changqin's ordinary world very much.

There is no threat in this world.

It is also very similar to the ancient times of Huaxia Kingdom.

Apart from the difficult tasks, living here is really pleasant.

Zhang Xu has the idea of ​​living like this forever and never going back.

Except for the old Taoist in front of him, who jumped out from time to time to harass Zhang Xu.

When Zhang Xu followed Ye Changqin and others to the capital, he discovered that this old man often spied on Ye's family.

Later, the old man found an opportunity to have a relationship with Zhang Xula.

The strength of this old Taoist is really good in this world, the high level of Xuan Realm is roughly equivalent to the master of the Innate Three Flowers Realm.

The old Tao also understands some things that ordinary warriors do not understand, and can see some things that ordinary people cannot see.

For example, Qi Luck, Feng Shui, Dragon Qi.

When the old Taoist saw Zhang Xu for the first time, he was overwhelmed by the abundant dragon energy on Zhang Xu's body. He stopped Zhang Xu and asked Zhang Xu if he belonged to the five-clawed golden dragon family.

Zhang Xu ignored him.

Later, the old Taoist posted up many times to strike up a conversation with Zhang Xu.

Zhang Xu is also indifferent.

Zhang Xu's spirit, whose strength had once again reached the Golden Core stage, could already cover the entire capital.Nothing in the capital escaped Zhang Xu's investigation.

Therefore, Zhang Xu knew the identity of the old Taoist.

The national teacher of the Xia Dynasty, Daoist Qing Zhuo.

"Mr. Xu, did you eat tofu brain again today? When will you go to Qingyun Temple, I will ask the kitchen to cook a table for you, it will definitely taste much better than this..."

"Mr. Xu, the emperor always wants to summon you, but he is afraid of being abrupt. When are you willing to meet the emperor?"

"Mr. Xu, your Ning'er's marriage may be settled soon, aren't you curious? Have a glass of wine with my old man, and I'll tell you which prince it might be..."

Zhang Xu looked indifferent, and walked forward, it seemed that the person talking beside him was not a person, let alone a national teacher, but a buzzing mosquito.

The identity of the old Taoist is known to everyone in the Ye family, and everyone knows it.

The servants who followed Zhang Xu also knew the identity of the old Taoist.

Seeing the old man licking his face like this, talking to his own Mr. Xu on the pole, although he didn't show it on the surface, he was extremely proud in his heart.

Although the servants don't know the important things, most of the servants still know that the rise of the Ye family is inseparable from the blessing of the ancestors, and this Mr. Xu.

Regarding Mr. Xu's ability, the servants of the Ye family are all unpredictable.

Zhang Xu was still thinking about something.

Four years have passed.Three years ago, Ye Yutian went to the northern border to resist the invasion of the grassland tribes.

In the past few years, he has made great achievements in battle, and he is already the commander-in-chief of the second rank.

And Ye Yucheng is already the fourth-rank Shaoqing of Dali Temple.Ye Yuming is the fourth-rank Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

Ye Yuwen has already studied for a bachelor from the fourth rank of the cabinet, and Ye Yuqi is from the fourth rank of the Guozijian Jijiu.

Ye Yuqi prefers to be more knowledgeable, so he stayed in the Imperial College.

Having been taught by great Confucians, he was willing to delve into it himself, and Zhang Xu provided him with a lot of private goods (manuscripts from other great Confucians, even sages and sub-sages) from other worlds. Ye Yuqi's knowledge has grown rapidly.

In Chunwei a year ago, another seven children of the Ye family were admitted to Jinshi, although none of them had a first grade.

Now, the Ye family is really hot.

There are civil servants, there are military officials, and among the civil servants there are those with real power, and some of them are noble and first-class.

The structure that a big aristocratic family should have was completed by the Ye family's children in a few years.

Ye Yuning is also 16 years old.

Emperor Mingyang released the word through the imperial concubine that Ye Yuning's marriage, he will give a marriage.Leave the rest alone.

With Emperor Mingyang's words, the princes stopped a lot.

And Ye Yuning didn't go out at all these years.Even when ladies from other official families invited her to enjoy flowers, receptions and so on, she refused all of them.

In the past four years, Ye Yuning has studied hard.

In addition to improving his military strength, he also studied a subset of classics and history, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

There are also miscellaneous books that Zhang Xu prepared for her, such as some unofficial history books, "36 Strategies", "Guiguzi", military strategies...

What's more, Zhang Xu also often reproduced the affairs of the imperial court that had been detected by his mind and soul, and showed them to Ye Yuning with the use of water mirrors.

Let Ye Yuning watch it or not, and let Ye Yuning also express his views.

Zhang Xu cultivated Ye Yuning more meticulously than anyone else.

Hearing the old Taoist saying that Ye Yuning's marriage might be settled, Zhang Xu glanced at the old Taoist, "Which prince is it?"

The old Taoist was happy. This was the first time Zhang Xu showed interest in what he said, "It is possible that it is not the Seventh Prince, but the Fourteenth Prince, or the Fifth Prince. The Fifth Prince is 28 years old. Waiting for your Ning'er..."

Zhang Xu ignored the old way, saying that he said nothing.

The fourteenth prince is the son of the imperial concubine. His family has great influence, good conduct, and talent. He has the highest voice to be crowned prince.

The Seventh Prince is the son of the former empress, with an orthodox bloodline, and there are many people who support him.

The fifth prince has made outstanding military exploits, is very prestigious among the military officers, and has many supporters.

All three are favorite candidates for the crown prince.

This was the situation before the Ye family entered the capital.

Therefore, what the old Taoist has said is equivalent to not saying it.

Emperor Mingyang hesitated between these three sons.

Let alone others.

Zhang Xu continued to walk forward.

After returning to the Ye family, the members of the Ye family did not dare to block the old way.

The old Taoist followed Zhang Xu all the way to Zhang Xu's courtyard, which was still called Tingfengyuan.

Outside the gate of Zhang Xu's courtyard, the old man was stopped.

It is a hidden guard on the tenth floor of the day after tomorrow.

The old man resented and prepared to leave.

Last time, he wanted to force his way in, but a bunch of people came, six or seven of them were born alone, and they threw him out.

The old man felt extremely ashamed, and never dared to force his way in the future.

At this time, Lu Shiqing walked in with a jar of wine, and shouted loudly, "Mr. Xu, let's have a drink today."

Looking back at the old Taoist, "Daoist Qingzhuo, alas, why is the majestic national teacher blocked from the door? Haha, what a joy, joy..."

Lu Shi is idle and idle, and he is the most disgusted by the people who are in the camp.

The old Taoist is a Taoist priest, a monk, and he has to show up in the court, so Lu Shiqing naturally disdains it.

It is not an exaggeration to say a few sarcasms when we meet.

There was bitterness on the old face.

This ordinary person, but a Confucian scholar, can enter this courtyard. He Qingzhuo has worked hard for four years, but he can't even set foot in other people's courtyards.

How could he not be discouraged.

Hearing the bustling sounds in the yard, through the gate, he saw many Ye family children practicing martial arts. The old man really wanted to take a closer look. Who wanted the Ye family children who were guarding the courtyard to step forward and block the old man's sight.

Zhang Xu and Lu Shiqing were drinking, admiring flowers, and tasting paintings, when they suddenly heard a shrill voice from outside the door, "The imperial decree has arrived, everyone from the Ye family came out to receive the decree."
