Domineering Daming

Zhu Xu didn't think about anything else, seeing Bumbutai's response, he continued to eat while thinking, and later he dictated that Bumubtai's embellishing pen was a good cooperation.

The water of the Qinhuai River was as usual, flowing quietly, full of the smell of rouge.

The business of Jiaofang that has not been shut down is getting better and better, it is overcrowded, and the noise resounds on both sides of the Qinhuai River.

Some people are drunk and forgetful, while others toss and turn, doomed to sleepless tonight.

With Zhu Xu, the "source of disaster", there was no peace in the whole of Nanzhili.

Officials in court, nobles in opposition, veterans, wealthy businessmen, squires, etc., are all involved in an invisible net.

In the Gongyuan, Qian Qianyi's second wife, Mrs. Li, had a firm face, and leaned slightly to look at Qian Qianyi who was sitting not far away, with a serious face and bitterness.

"Why are you doing this?" Qian Qianyi smiled wryly, and on his right was a reconciliation document.

Li's family is less than thirty years old and in full bloom, but with an incongruous expression on his face, his voice is unusually firm, his eyes are iron, and he said: "Even though the concubine comes from a bad family background, I will never behave like this! Master's conduct really makes the concubine Disdainful, I can't bear it anymore, I still ask the master to agree to reconcile, if the master refuses, please give a letter of divorce, and let the concubine go away!"

Qian Qianyi knew that his second wife had a fiery personality and couldn't rub the sand in her eyes. He did something stupid yesterday, but she was the one who found out.

This "divorce letter" is actually equivalent to burying a woman's life. After all, Qian Qianyi didn't want to harm her when they were married, so he sighed and signed the reconciliation.

Li's expression softened, and after accepting the document of reconciliation, he said righteously: "This is the last time this concubine persuades the master, as an official of the imperial court, you should abide by the principles and strictly control yourself, and don't do anything foolish that day!"

Qian Qianyi's face was not embarrassed, he just nodded lightly and said, "Go."

Mrs. Li glanced at Qian Qianyi again, and strode away with her burden on her shoulders.

Qian Qianyi didn't feel much about the second lady's departure, he took out a letter from his bosom, did not open it, and his expression became solemn.

His literary fame was at its peak, his talent built Jinling, and he made friends all over the world in the south of the Yangtze River, but the only one who wrote letters without signing his name was the third uncle of the Wu family.

This third uncle was very kind to him, and was able to escape Wei Zhongxian's persecution back then. It was this third uncle who worked hard and spent a lot of money, and he also contributed to the restoration of the Wu family.

In terms of emotion and reason, if the Wu family made a request, he, Qian Qianyi, would not be able to refuse!

However, he knew better in his heart that what was in this letter was absolutely unacceptable!

Qian Qianyi put the letter on the table, just looked at it, his expression kept changing, and he stopped abruptly when he wanted to open it several times.

Like Qian Qianyi, there are eighty if not one hundred in Nanzhili, including Shi Bangyao, the prefect of Yingtianfu.

Shi Bangyao stood in the pavilion, looked at the letter, and sighed at the bright moonlight.

Our Shi family owed the Wu family a big favor back then, which was too big to repay. Now, it is time for them to ask for some repayment.

It's just that if this is to be repaid, it may really cost the entire Shi family...

The Wang family, Wang Beicheng, and Mrs. Wang also received the letter, including a puppet.

Master Wang held the letter and the puppet, and remained silent, silent.

This puppet was stained with blood. He killed someone because of his righteousness when he was young. He was saved by the old man of the Wu family. The Wang family could not have today without the help of the Wu family.

The Wu family's network of relationships has spread out in an all-round way, which is terrifying and astonishing. If it wasn't for the short time, it would be even more astonishing!

Chapter 690

The whole Yingtian Mansion was anxious, but Zhu Xu was leisurely in the room teaching Bumbutai to write the "bidding letter".

Bumbutai is indeed very smart, she can explain a lot of things at a glance, Zhu Xu often doesn't say half of it, she has already written one article, her thinking is meticulous, and it fits perfectly.

The oil lamp in the room was flickering, although it wasn't a red-sleeved smack, but it had a different flavor.

Before Yinshi, Cao Huachun knocked on the door and whispered through the crack of the door: "Your Majesty, it's almost time."

I don't know why, but Zhu Xu got angry again. If he was in the capital, he would really stay out of bed, but now he can't, so he wrapped the quilt for Bumubutai, and said: "Go to sleep, today you two The sisters don't need to go."

Bumubutai's tender body was reclining, the spring was hidden, her long hair was draped on the pillow, she got up quickly when she heard the words, and dressed Zhu Xu in unlined clothes.

Today is a grand occasion, requiring formal attire—a complicated dragon robe.

It took a full incense stick before Zhu Xu came out.

The outside has been tidied up, waiting for Zhu Xu, as soon as he waved his hand, everyone left the courtyard one by one, and rushed to the Huben army camp quietly.

Cao Wenzhao, Yang Zhaoji, Wu Xiang and others were all waiting, and they were very excited. Zhu Xu was fully dressed, and they were also in armor.

"Your Majesty, everything is ready, just waiting for your order!" Cao Wenzhao said in a deep voice, following Zhu Xu.

"Okay, get ready, tell Fang Kongzhang, get ready!" Zhu Xu went straight to Huben Army's tent.

"Observe the order!" Cao Wenzhao responded, and Yang Zhaoji, Wu Xiang and others left one after another.

Fang Kongxuan quickly got the order, and together with Fu Zonglong, he used the soldiers and horses of the governor's mansion to maintain order, and "escorted" the waves of people who had been summoned to the Huben army camp.

"Treasurer Li, have you been invited too?"

"Master Tao, are you there?"

"Lord Hou, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

In the crowd, there were low voices of conversation from time to time, greeting each other.After the greeting, they all held their breath and walked forward slowly.

The gate of the Huben army camp is a concrete arch bridge, and the people standing guard on it can see a group of dozens of people in "ordinary" clothes walking towards here under the guard of soldiers.

The guards guarding the gate checked again and let them in one by one.

Then they were led by a special person and walked a long way. At a corner, they went up a high altar along the stone steps. It was very large and inclined, and the chairs had already been placed.

"Hold the sign, look for the number on it, sit still, don't move around, if you need something, call the soldier, you know?" The leading captain had dark skin and a cold expression.

"I know, I know..." This group of people are "ordinary people" and not sensitive, so they were placed in the first batch, walking quickly with signs in the midst of the cold and chill.

This group of people sat on the high platform, they were still a little uncomfortable at the beginning, they were very awkward, they talked in a low voice, and seeing that the soldiers around them didn't care, they all began to whisper.

"Shopkeeper Li, is this the first time in the world?"

"No, I can also tell my children and grandchildren in the future that I was also invited by the emperor to go up to the high platform and watch military exercises!"

"Master Han, you are a bit early to become an official, do you regret it? If you are still in office, you will definitely be able to do a few more rows in the front."

"Hehe...that's right."

"Old Hou Ye, if I don't admire others, I will admire you. You are the only one who can see clearly how many ministers have been ruined by the ups and downs in Nanzhili."

"You're welcome, I only remember two words: Loyalty! I don't care about the rest! Where are those who have been fighting for a lifetime now? The only one who can sit here is this old man..."

This group of people belonged to the "marginal people", and they were obedient to the imperial court's policies, but they suffered very little loss, and many of them also got a share of the benefits, so they were proud of themselves.
