After Huang Ji'an left, Zihuan suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and asked, "Ah Bai, what kind of riddle are you playing with him?"

Shen Bai told Zihuan about the ins and outs, and Zihuan held his hand nervously.

"Purchasing officials, you are committing a big taboo. If Qingliu, the speaker, finds out, Shen's residence may never have peace." Zihuan felt deeply about the court's speech, and immediately became worried for Shen Bai.

Whether a friend cares about himself or not can tell a thing or two.

Also as a member of the Yuwen family, Zihuan's first association and concern is his safety, and it is enough to know the small things.

She shook his hand back: "Don't worry, Zihuan, I'm sure, I won't be too ostentatious, and it will be just right."

Zihuan can't say much after thinking about it, Shen Bai has always been a person with ideas, and even knows how to advance and retreat better than him.

"It's good for Ah Bai to think so. There is no need to force everything. Sometimes inaction is the best policy."

Shen Bai nodded and thanked sincerely: "I know."

At this time Xiao Yan came in from the outside and whispered a few words to Shen Bai: "Master, today I saw that little novice from Longyuan Temple in the market. I didn’t buy it again, so I went up and said something to him, saying that I’ll talk to you when I come back, and I asked him to go to the bookstore to carry two hundred catties of rice back.”

Upon hearing this, Shen Bai praised: "Well done, prepare two thousand catties of rice in the mansion tomorrow, and come with me to Longyuan Temple."

Xiao Yan should go out and make arrangements.

"Longyuan Temple, where is it?" Zihuan asked.

"Thirty miles away from Bianjing City, Master Huiguang is an eminent monk, and I respect him very much." Shen Bai said.

Zihuan thought for a while: "Why not, Ah Bai will take me to play tomorrow, so I can go and have a look, and I can do my part."

"Okay, then let's travel together."

In the afternoon, when Xu Jin came over to play, he couldn't avoid a joke when he saw Zihuan. After hearing about the Longyuan Temple, he couldn't help but praise Xiao Yan: "This kid is getting smarter and smarter, but he's a bit like Ah Bai. Bai Yiyi handles things very decently, without any pettiness, and will become grand in the future."

"It's hard to get praise from Mr. Wen Lan!" Shen Bai jokingly said.

"You're making fun of me again." Xu Jin glared at him.

Early the next morning, the carriage from Zihuan's mansion arrived early, followed by a grain cart and four guards.

Xu Jin and Shen Bai were having breakfast, and when they saw Zihuan arrived, they greeted them to eat together, Zihuan said they had eaten, but Shen Bai still gave him a bowl of red bean soup.

"Ah Bai and my husband can ride in my car together today, so as not to drive too many cars, and it won't be exciting if we sit separately." Zihuan took the bowl and said.

"Okay, this is the best." Xu Jin likes to be lively, so naturally he can't ask for it.

Xu Jin, who could wish for nothing, failed in the end, because Huang Jimian came to block him early in the morning, and for the sake of "one thing for the same show", Huang Jimian also took Xu Jin to the platform without doing anything.

Hearing that he was selling food for poor boatmen and coolies, Xu Jin couldn't refuse, so he went back and changed into ordinary cotton clothes.

Wearing cotton cloth instead of silk is the great wisdom of people like Xu Jin.

Watching them leave, Shen Bai smiled in his heart, now that he has realized his pushing hand effect, it depends on whether Yu Wentuo can get on the pile, otherwise there will be no problems with the Huang family's affairs.

Because Xu couldn't get in, Shen Bai took Shunzi, Daniel and Xiao Yan to go together.Xiao Yan rode a bay red horse to accompany him. Since the Zhuangzi outside was established, Shen Bai gave priority to him and Daniel to learn how to ride a horse. This is one of the necessary skills in the life of the ancients.

Daniel wanted to drive the car, and Shunzi also accompanied him to press the car.

Xiao Yan rode on the horse with a cold spear wrapped in cloth at the front end. Although he was dressed in a new cyan clothes, although they were ordinary civilian clothes, he looked heroic.

Before getting into the car, Zihuan praised: "Not bad, he really looks like a young general."

Shen Bai watched and smiled knowingly.

This kind of Shen Bai is real in Zihuan's eyes, no matter how outrageous or even advanced and refined some of the things Shen Bai does, but at this moment, Chen Bai who is smiling casually is simple and satisfied.

This person may have never had any ambitions, only an inescapable position and the talent to maneuver between courts.

On the court hall, the bell for retreating from the court rings, which is equivalent to getting up at four o'clock in the morning. At 09:30, Yu Wentuo, who retreated from the court, relaxed his tired body and returned to the South Study Room. Eunuch Wang sent a small bowl of red bean Yuanxiao , this is one of His Majesty's favorite foods.

The left and right prime ministers and Hubu Shangshu were all sitting in the Taishi chairs on both sides, quietly waiting for the emperor to finish eating.

Shu Yu, the inspector in front of the hall, came in from the outside, went straight to Yu Wentuo without saluting, and leaned over to speak a few words in his ear.

"Oh?" Yu Wentuo put down the bowl and spoon in his hand and waved it down. Eunuch Wang knowingly asked for a towel, took it to wipe his mouth, and took another sip of tea.

"Leave aside the matter of discussing money and food today, all my dear friends, please step down first." Yu Wentuo said.

The three ministers got up respectfully, stepped back and saluted and went out.

When the person walked away, Yu Wentuo turned his head to look at Shu Yu: "Are you sure?"

"Of course, Mr. Wen Lan personally sold food to the students at Tongyuan Bookstore yesterday, and the queue lined up from Dongshi to Nanshikou, and the people in Bianjing praised the scholars for being so good.

Early this morning, Mr. Wen Lan will go to the North Wharf together with Huang Liuqi, the richest man in Bianjing, and Huang Ji'an, and announce that from today onwards, all wharf boatmen and coolies can work in any Huang family by virtue of their household registration books. The grain store bought fifteen catties of cheap grain.In addition, Huang Liuqi also announced that Jinling He's injustice has ruined the reputation of businessmen all over the world, and businessmen all over the world are ashamed of him. Huang's business will expand the scope of cheap food to other poor families tomorrow. "

"Okay!" Yu Wentuo couldn't help clapping the table and applauding, even the teacup on the royal table was patted so that the tea splashed out.

"Mr. Wen Lan is a bit interesting. Since we can persuade the Huang family to sell cheap food together, it seems that we have a reasonable share of the 4000 taels last time!" Shu Yu said seemingly casually.

After hearing this, Yu Wentuo leaned back on the chair and said nothing: "You mentioned 4000 taels, but I don't think it's that simple."

"The emperor also thinks so?" Shu Yu asked.

"You can see it too?" Yu Wentuo looked at Shu Yu: "How much Shen Bai pushed this matter, and he had so many reservations about what he said before, it seems that I lied to him, not a groundless response, but This kind of response is what I want most, if it is really him, tell me, how will I treat him?"

"It depends on the usefulness of the emperor. If you have no purpose, but can handle such a big matter in the dark, and give yourself a place to maneuver, then it is not a general strategy that can be praised!" Shu Yu replied. .

"You seem to have a different view of Shen Bai." Yu Wentuo: "Or a little scrupulous?"

Yu Wentuo tilted his head when he spoke, as if he really wanted to see Shu Yu's reaction.

"Outsiders think I'm a martial artist, but doesn't the emperor know about my liking?" Shu Yu replied.

"That's right." Yu Wentuo nodded self-consciously: "Xinwen likes elegant music, and he is also the best in pin music, but it's just unknown. From Shen Bai's piano sound, can you hear the extra-string sound?"

"The minister said before that he can move forward and retreat freely in playing the piano, not to mention playing alone. Even Zhang Heli in an ensemble is like a general in command of an army. He can send and receive freely and relax with a certain degree." Shu Yu's analysis was very rational.

Yu Wentuo felt comforted: "If you can look at the problem this way, it is not the sight of a general. The broadness of your sight determines your future achievements. A person's achievement is not just the position of a prince and duke, but a position that will remain for generations to come."

"Then to Shen Bai?"

"Let's see where he is." Yu Wentuo was not in a hurry. As an emperor, he didn't need to ask about the process of a matter in advance. It was the most ideal to see the natural result without hindering the overall situation.
