The emperor is embarrassed

Ming Zhan is very good at making up some far-fetched lies.

This kind of ability is not obtained through long-term practice, but a gift from heaven.

For North Korean and Chinese officials, lying is almost an instinct.However, there are only a few people who come out with such a causal, miraculous, and highly credible lie like Ming Zhan can make up the same.

Most of the courtiers are famous for their mixed truths and falsehoods.

But Ming Zhan is different, he can completely tell the truth about nothing.

After a lot of long-winded words, Ming Zhan finally summed up the true meaning of Taizu's dream.

At this time, Ming Zhan leaned over to help Lin Yongshang.Because Ming Zhan's dream was very long, Lin Yongshang had been kneeling on the ground, and now his calf was numb, and he staggered reflexively.Ming Zhan helped him to stand firm, and sighed, "Now, I understand the meaning of Taizu. Although a scabbard is a rare treasure, it is invaluable, but I rule the world by relying on civil servants and generals, loyal ministers and virtuous officials. It is not a scabbard. My national treasure is not a scabbard, but all the nobles, officials and people who are loyal to the court in the world. Today, although the Taizu sword is precious and incomparable, Yongshang has no intention of losing it. , How can I criticize the minister for one thing."

In addition to being good at talking nonsense, Ming Zhan also has another ability, he can say all kinds of nasty things.

He patted Lin Yongshang on the shoulder, and said emotionally, "I gave you the sword of Taizu, just to hope that you can manage Huaiyang well and return my rich rivers and mountains. Now, the reform of the salt class is coming to an end. When the Tatars came, You have defended tens of millions of people in Huaiyang, guarding the land and water. In my heart, Yongshang, you are the real priceless treasure."

Although these words are very nasty, but Lin Yongshang listened, how could he not feel touched.Just as he was about to speak, Ming Zhan completely lost his feelings for nonsense, and sighed in a nasty way, "Yongshang is my darling."

Lin Yongshang was being moved, and he felt embarrassed when he heard this sentence. He thought to himself, everyone said that the emperor's cultural level was not good, and it seemed to be true.

However, Lin Yongshang was moved and grateful for the emperor's intentions.

Regardless of whether there was a big dream of Emperor Taizu, the emperor saved him.

Lin Yongshang is a person who is familiar with history books. In history, under the pressure of most courtiers, how many emperors are best at abandoning pawns to save chariots.

Ming Zhan is a brave person. He didn't blame Lin Yongshang for this when he met Lin Yongshang in private, so he would naturally try to keep Lin Yongshang.

And Lin Yongshang, deeply favored by the emperor, how could he not have the heart to repay him to the death?

Of course, it would be more perfect if the emperor stopped saying that such enthusiasm is too much.Although let Lin Yongshang say that he can't compare with Ruan Hongfei in all aspects, but the words of the emperor's "heartbeat baby" came out. Lin Yongshang was grateful for Jun's kindness while beating drums in his heart, for fear that Ming Zhan would suddenly Look at him or something.

In order to prove his innocence, Lin Yongshang said in the afternoon that he would go back to Huaiyang.

Ming Zhan didn't keep him either, and let him go directly.

On the contrary, Lin Yongshang was a little reluctant to part with Xu's younger sister, so he followed the way of his niece and daughter-in-law, and asked Xu Yingyu to meet her at the mansion.

Xu Yingyu had a slightly disappointed face, "I won't see you again in two years."

Lin Yongshang had the cheek to sit on the same couch with the other girl, seemingly accidentally touching her little white hand, with a gentlemanly face, and said softly, "Two years will pass soon. If there is another errand to go south, my sister will ask the Queen Mother It's good to come."

"Let's talk." Xu Yingyu's face was flushed, but she didn't take her hand out, so the daring Governor Lin became more and more daring to pinch.

Xu Yingyu glared at him, "Don't push yourself too hard."

Lin Yongshang smiled apologetically, thinking, at worst, I'll knock you out and take off your clothes.As a shameless old man, Lin Yongshang is really not afraid of this.

The two muttered intimately for a long while, and Xu Yingyu left.

Lin Yongshang wanted to give him a ride, Xu Yingyu thought that the faces of the two families were still stiff, and Lin Yongshang didn't show up after all.

Xu San didn't respond to Lin Yongshang's return to Huaiyang.Anyway, this man surnamed Lin was lucky enough to be protected by the emperor, and he lost half of the national treasure, but he didn't do anything to him.

Of course, Xu San couldn't help getting goosebumps all over his body when he thought of the emperor's words "darling, sweetheart", it was so gross.

At the same time, Fang Shenxing and Song Zhuyu, two new county magistrates, went to Huaiyang with Lin Yongshang.

The matter of the imperial capital Lin Yongshang was settled by Ming Zhan with a lot of nonsense.

Datong City is at its peak.

Deputy General Niu led five thousand soldiers to put down the rebellion, tied up all the living ones, strangled all the weapons, and counted the corpses left in the fight.

When seeing that number, both Song Yao and Zhao Lingyan's faces were not very good-looking.Even Zhao Lingyan, who sat and watched this happen, didn't expect so many people to die. Song Yao sighed softly and remained silent for a while.

"Ayao?" Zhao Lingyan called out, and he stayed up all night to deal with official business, which made Zhao Lingyan's face look a bit haggard, with bruises under his eyes.Although he was older than Song Yao and possessed all sorts of scheming skills, he was somewhat uncertain at this moment.

If he had acted earlier, wouldn't so many people have to die?

These people are not Tatars outside the customs.Although he joined a gang, he was still a commoner in Datong City.

Thinking of this, Zhao Lingyan's overdrawn body shook slightly, his eyes turned black, and he almost fell to the ground.It was Song Yao who was quick to support him and sent Zhao Lingyan to sit on the couch covered with wolf fur cushions.

Song Yao said softly, "If we change hands with Shao Fanning at this time, Shao Fanning may not think so at this time."

"I'm really uneasy." Zhao Lingyan said.

Song Yao poured a cup of hot tea from the stove hanger, handed it to Zhao Lingyan and said, "Although you made the idea, it was my order. Even if there is retribution, you have to come to me first, so you don't have to worry about it."

Zhao Lingyan took the tea, but couldn't tell that it was a good word, and asked tentatively, "Are you trying to comfort me?"

"Well, I'm afraid you can't think about it." Song Yao said honestly.

"I really didn't realize that this was persuasive words." Zhao Lingyan suspected that Song Yao couldn't speak.

Song Yao simply shut up.

In any case, although Zhao Lingyan's conscience was found to be uneasy at the beginning, as a counselor who had experienced the baptism of war, even if Zhao Lingyan was soft-hearted, it was very limited.

Within two days, he was involved in checking the accounts of the two gangs.

Both Jiang Wen'an and Lu Wentao came from aristocratic families. They were born rich and honored.The two are imperial envoys, so there is no reason not to come and have a look, and then report to the court.

The booklet reads: 230 people were killed and 570 people were injured. Shao Fanning, the prefect, insisted on going his own way and refused Datong General Song Yao's intention to help, which eventually led to this tragedy.The long street was stained with blood, and the people were shocked. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I still wouldn't believe it.

The court was shocked.

Not only because the fight in Datong City was very serious, but also because the Longevity Festival is just around the corner, so it would be bad luck if this happened suddenly.

Ming Zhan's handling method is very special. His birthday is half a month away. At this time, the Datong brawl happened.He didn't avoid this year's Longevity Day, but directly moved the Longevity Day back by half a month.

Because of the Datong tragedy, Ming Zhan said that in order to commemorate the people of Datong, banquets, singing and dancing will be banned throughout the country within one month.Then, Shao Fanning was directly removed from his official position, his family property was confiscated, and he was executed on the spot.In addition, Zhang Shu, Minister of Lifan Academy, is the magistrate of Datong and will take office immediately.

Zhang Shu was highly valued by Ming Zhan because of his mission to Tatar. Now that there are not many diplomatic events in the country, Ming Zhan does not support idlers, so he simply let him go to Datong.

Ming Zhan likes to show off with Ruan Hongfei when he has a proud moment, "Li Bing is indeed capable, and Shaoyang is also very good."

Different from Zhao Lingyan who still can't bear it, when you come to Ming Zhan's position, if you ask him, "Kill 1 people to save [-] one, do you want to kill or not?" Ming Zhan will definitely answer in the affirmative.

The bloodshed and sacrifice that Ming Zhan has experienced, overtly and secretly, I don't know how much.

While the wheel of history continues to move forward, what is left must be bloodstained all over the place.Enough blood has been shed in Datong City. If the traitors who have had an affair with the Tatars and colluded with Feng Jingming cannot be taken down, then in the near future, Datong City will shed more blood.

Ruan Hongfei knew Ming Zhan's arrangement in Datong City long ago, and now he knew the result by seeing Ming Zhan's playful face. He ignored Ming Zhan's words and said, "The son of Zhongyihou has come to the imperial capital, you know ?"

Ming Zhan has been paying attention to the affairs of Datong, but he really doesn't know much about it. He just shook his head and sighed, "The ostentation of each of them is really not small, and there must be pioneers waiting in front of them."

Ruan Hongfei didn't think much of it, and said with a smile, "Naturally, someone needs to take the lead in making arrangements, and the house must be cleaned up, so it's convenient to move in directly when the time comes."

"Well, what's the matter, this kid will come here when he comes." Ming Zhan didn't take it seriously. The four princes of the Shanqihou family, including their descendants, Ming Zhan had seen a lot, and he lost interest early, and he didn't think that the clan was going to do anything. .Now that Ruan Hongfei specifically mentioned it, Ming Zhan couldn't help but ask, "You won't cause trouble just after you come here, right?"

Ruan Hongfei shook his head, "Where are you thinking? The Marquis of Loyalty is very strict with his children, even Emperor Renzong praised him. I mean, your uncle Marquis Yongning is almost jealous to death."

Ming Zhan's eyes widened, but he didn't understand for a while.

Ruan Hongfei couldn't help laughing, "It's Ziyao, it seems that he only sees the newcomers laughing and doesn't hear the old ones cry."

Immediately, Ming Zhan was full of energy, and hurried over to listen to the gossip.

Speaking of Zhongyi Hou Feng Jinghong, there are quite a few sons and daughters, and now the one who came to the imperial capital first is the concubine son of Zhongyi Hou, who ranks sixth among the many heirs of Zhongyi Hou, named Feng Mingfan.

The family members of this clan can tell their closeness by naming them. For example, Hou Zhongyi, the word "Jing" was taken along with the royal family.Even for his next generation, the characters of his sons are based on the character "Ming", and they follow the royal family closely.

It shows that the relationship between Zhongyi Hou and the royal family is really good.

Anyone who has seen Feng Mingfan must praise Feng Mingfan for his good manners.

In fact, when it comes to appearance, Feng Mingfan is only above average.Such an appearance stands out among the common people.But if it is placed in the clan that has always been famous for its handsome men and beautiful women, it can only be regarded as mediocre.

It can't even be compared with Xue Shaoliang and Song Yao, whom Ming Zhan called "the two imperial capitals".

But Feng Mingfan's demeanor, every frown and smile, and the behavior of the characters have always made people feel like a spring breeze.What's more, he was born liberal and likes to befriend others, so he has quite a lot of friends.

Wei An Wei Ziyao is an example.

Because of Feng Mingfan's personality, even though he was born as a concubine, he always had some face in front of Hou Zhongyi.If there is any errand, Hou Zhongyi is happy to send him to run errands or something.

Furthermore, Feng Mingfan's biological mother was just the accompanying room of Mrs. Lu's son, Mrs. Zhongyihou, and she was not loved by Zhongyihou. She just fell asleep by accident and became pregnant. She had a difficult labor when giving birth to Feng Mingfan and passed away early. .

Feng Mingfan grew up with Mao Si, a male concubine of the Marquis of Zhongyi since he was a child. Mao Si came from a humble background, an actor, but because of his beauty and carelessness, he was favored by the Marquis of Zhongyi.It's a pity that Mao Si came from a lowly background, no matter how gentle and tactful he is, he is still a big man, and it is not suitable to keep him in the inner house.

It doesn't seem appropriate to keep them in the front yard.

Hou Zhongyi really liked him, so he bought a foreign house and sent Feng Mingfan to Mao Siyang.In the future, Mao Si can also rely on someone.

Feng Mingfan grew up in such a strange environment.

Mao Si got Feng Mingfan under his knees, thinking very well.However, since he was a child, he had been working in an opera troupe, and after so many years, he had been under the men's body for love, and his body was long gone. When Feng Mingfan was ten years old, Mao Si, a confidante, let go.

At that time, Hou Zhongyi cried hard.

People cannot be resurrected from the dead.

Of course Feng Mingfan and Mao Si had a good relationship, but Feng Mingfan said that although Mao Si died early, he died at the right time.

Those who serve the emperor with color will lose their color and love to relax.

Feng Mingfan heard Mao Si say this sentence many times.Even when Mao Si was seriously ill, he followed the example of Mrs. Li, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and refused to meet Zhongyihou again.

Facts have proved that men are cheap bones.

Mao Si refused to see Hou Zhongyi again, but he did not shy away from Feng Mingfan.He was sick and bones were torn apart, leaning on the soft pillow, his brows were haggard and there was still a kind of shocking beauty.

Gaomen Guidi's children mature early.

Not to mention Feng Mingfan.

Mao Si handed over a red box, and said to Feng Mingfan, "You have been kept under my knees since you fell to the ground. All these years, my body has been in this box, you put it away, don't let others deceive you go."

At that time, Feng Mingfan hadn't yet cultivated his appearance, so he didn't know what to say, he just took the heavy mahogany box dumbly.

"Grow up well, Ming Fan."

Mao Si's temper was actually not very good. At that time Feng Mingfan knew his identity, and he was dissatisfied with being raised by a prostitute, and would make trouble for Mao Si from time to time.And the origin of the Fourth Mao Opera Troupe, except for his skin, is extremely glamorous.Cleaning up Feng Mingfan is not relentless at all.

Mao Si became annoyed, not only wanted to use his hands, but also to use his mouth, he could point at Feng Mingfan's nose and scold for most of the day, just for fun.

However, when this person dies.

Feng Mingfan suddenly realized that there was not even a single person in this world who was willing to beat and scold him and teach him a lesson.

Feng Mingfan grew up like this.

He had to admit that Hou Zhongyi had more than a dozen sons, and the reason why he was remembered by Hou Zhongyi had a very important relationship with Mao Si.

Mao Si did not meet Hou Zhongyi until his death.The man's low bones are on fire, and the loyal Hou still thinks of Mao Si from time to time.Occasionally, when he got some handsome pet, he would ask Feng Mingfan to ask, "Xiao Liu'er, look, does he look like Si'er?"

Feng Mingfan glanced at it, "They don't resemble each other in appearance, and they don't resemble each other in spirit."

So, Hou Zhongyi felt sad.

No, even if Mao Si was born again, Feng Mingfan wouldn't say the same thing.

If they really look like each other, Hou Zhongyi must empathize.

Hou Zhongyi forgot about Mao Si, who would care about his little bastard.

Feng Mingfan's upbringing was more complicated and tortuous than that of the heirs of other clan families. This also meant that there was no obvious division of social class for him. Even some actors and so on, Feng Mingfan treated everyone equally.

He was raised by actors, no matter what, Mao Si was kind to him.

Feng Mingfan's pretentious temperament made him have some friendship with all kinds of religions.On this point, Feng Mingfan and Wei Ziyao have a lot in common.

Feng Mingfan has known Wei Ziyao for a long time.

Although the clan Wuyu cannot leave the fief or anything, that is mainly aimed at the title owner.Like his father Zhongyihou and his elder brother Feng Mingji, they can't talk or act nonsense, so they can only stay in Anhui for a good life.But like Feng Mingfan, who doesn't have the right to inherit, he can go out for a while if he finds a reason.

Feng Mingfan and Wei Ziyao have a pretty good friendship.

As soon as the two of them met, they chatted happily over wine until midnight, Feng Mingfan borrowed three minutes of his drunkenness to hold Wei Ziyao's hand, and said with a smile, "I don't know if Ziyao still remembers the old friendship."

Wei Ziyao has always been an unscrupulous guy, he picked Feng Mingfan up, bumped the table without realizing it, staggered three times, and pushed him onto the bed, his face was like a peach petal, in front of Feng Mingfan Lingering on his lips, he whispered and asked with a smile, "Do you think I remember?"

Feng Mingfan was already pulling Wei Ziyao's belt.
