The Ming Dynasty started with caution

Every time Emperor Hongzhi summoned him back, Wang Shouren would stare at him for a long time.

If he hadn't known that Wang Shouren was looking for things, Yan Chengjin would have suspected that he had some evil intentions.

"Brother Bo'an, why are you staring at me?"

Wang Shouren fell into deep thought: "Wang was thinking, why does Brother Gao always have to be summoned by His Majesty before he goes out? Brother Gao obviously has a serious face, but when he comes back he looks relaxed. It must be that he is in trouble?"

This guy Wang Shouren likes to hit him whenever he has nothing to do.

Yan Chengjin said: "It's just a matter of discussing some trivial matters, how can it be auspicious?"

Wang Shouren shook his head. He always believed in his own insights and did not want to argue with Yan Chengjin, so he continued to copy the classics in his hand.

……………………

In the morning,

Mou Bin rushed back from Baoding Prefecture and came to pay the order to Emperor Hongzhi. He waited outside the palace for a long time before being summoned.

"Zhang Zhong, the commander of the garrison, was overbearing, but he was not as good at serving the villagers as in the memorial. The memorial by Yuan Cheng, the censor of Baoding Prefecture, was a bit exaggerated. I believe that both of them were at fault."

Emperor Hongzhi nodded and said: "Zhang Zhong was demoted to one rank to make him repent, and Yuan Cheng was fined three months' salary."

Mou Bin felt uneasy, but fortunately the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs had no objections, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Absolutely did not forget, and sent three more guards in golden uniforms around Yan's mansion to form a siege, and even came to visit with two pieces of bacon.

Seeing that there were more troops of Jin Yiwei outside the mansion, Yan Chengjin said with a smile: "Thank you for your kindness."

Mou Bin hesitated to speak and glanced at He Neng, as if there was something he couldn't say.

Yan Chengjin knew that he was of clean origin and had been reused in the Hongzhi Dynasty. After thinking about it for a while, he sent He Neng out and prepared to help others.

The two closed the door.

Mou Bin was quite embarrassed, with a shy face and rubbed his hands: "Uncle Shi has a hidden illness, which he has never told anyone about. I heard that my nephew offered two kinds of medicine, so I couldn't help but want to ask. I won't hide it from my nephew. A few years ago, Shi Shu My uncle was injured on duty and has some physical difficulties with his masculinity. I don’t know what my nephew is..."

Yan Chengjin's face darkened instantly and he said: "Master Mou is admirable for his loyalty and courage, but I am really not a doctor, let alone a doctor."

Mou Bin was pale, a traitor and had no descendants. Wan An's son Wan Yi and grandson Wan Hongbi both died, and the whole family was extinct.

That's because God has eyes.

But he went through fire and water for the imperial court, and what mistakes did he make? He lived a righteous life, but like Wan An, he ended up with no descendants.

"Is there... no other way?"

Yan Chengjin thought for a while and sighed. Mou Bin is very powerful in martial arts, so he thought he would be stronger in masculinity, but he didn't expect...

"Please allow me to think about it again."

Yan Chengjin asked He Neng to go to Dongshi and buy two kilograms of leeks and give them to Mou Bin: "If there is still no reaction after eating these two kilograms of leeks, I'm afraid it will be difficult to make a comeback."

If the car doesn't move when the gas is full, it can only be said that the car is not working.

Mou Bin was overjoyed when he heard that there was still a glimmer of hope, so he carefully wrapped the leeks as if they were herbs.

Yan Chengjin carefully introduced several ways to eat leeks.

Mou Bin looked solemn and said, "Please my wise nephew keep his mouth shut."

"Of course."

……………………

The Hungry Ghost Festival is approaching, and everyone in the imperial court is taking a bath.

After the vacation, Yan Chengjin gave a lecture. When Li Dongyang told him, Yan Chengjin felt bad.

Considering that His Majesty may come to listen to the prayer feast on that day, if His Majesty's eyes shine, it will have a strong blessing effect on his career.

Yan Chengjin thought of Cheng Minzheng.

Cheng Minzheng once served as Zhanshi in the Zhanshifu of the East Palace. He also taught scripture banquets and was more knowledgeable than Li Dongyang.

He wrote a letter and cordially invited Cheng Minzheng to come to the capital for the holidays.

Cheng Minzheng didn't want to go back to the capital, a sad place, but he owed Yan Chengjin a favor, so he came reluctantly.

He took off his gorgeous clothes and only wore blue and white Confucian clothes. He looked like an old gentleman from a private school. Following him was a little book boy.

Judging from this simple outfit, Cheng Minzheng has been very light on material things. What he needs now is spiritual life.

Yan Chengjin ordered his servants to prepare a family banquet: "Bi Zhongxian and Hu Zhai have always been loved by people. I'm afraid it will be very lively tonight."

Speaking of Hu Zhai, Cheng Minzheng said with emotion: "Entering the capital will be a different scene. If it weren't for my nephew's letter, I probably wouldn't have entered the capital."

At the beginning of the lanterns, the streets of the capital were replaced with glowing red lanterns. The theater troupe set up the stage on the roadside.

Wang Yue also came to Yan's mansion to join in the fun. To Yan Chengjin's surprise, he also brought Wang Shouren with him.

Wang Yue saw Cheng Minzheng and sneered: "Hello, Mr. Qingshan."

Cheng Minzheng responded: "Hello, Mr. Chuanshi!"

Wang Yue's face twitched fiercely, who had leaked the news and exposed my name.

Wang Shouren was dumbfounded. It turned out that the two were the two mysterious gentlemen who were rumored. They had always been friends with Brother Gao?

Wang Yue simply refused to admit it: "Brother Keqin, don't blame him. Mr. Chuanshi is so amazing and talented. Even compared to Brother Keqin, to put it bluntly, he is more than three and a half feet taller. How can I compare him to him?" "

The person who leaked the news was of course Yan Chengjin, and all three of them knew it tacitly.

Wang Shouren saluted Cheng Minzheng: "I'll see you later, Mr. Cheng."

After entering Yan's Mansion, Wang Shouren looked around with his little eyes, wanting to check all the items in Yan's Mansion.

Wang Yue put on a smiling face: "Today is the Lantern Festival. I invite my nephew to go to the opera house to watch a play, listen to the newly edited opera War and Peace, or go to the teahouse to listen to a story."

Cheng Minzheng had also read Mr. Chuanshi's book. Although no one told him, he guessed that it was Wang Yue after seeing the life experience of the owner in the confession.

Going to the opera house and the teahouse is nothing more than satisfying Wang Yue's Murong heart.

This is Yan Chengjin's first night tour. I heard that Emperor Hongzhi canceled the curfew tonight.

The Yan Mansion is a bit remote. Even in such a remote place, there are many vendors and pedestrians in the alleys outside the mansion.

Cheng Minzheng stayed in front of a painting for a long time.

In the painting, there is a dilapidated temple next to a quiet forest. A scholar is carrying a box and is about to go in to hide from the rain. The plaque at the temple gate reads the words "Lanruo".

Yan Chengjin took a look and thought, isn't this the famous scene in the fox house?

"How much silver?" Cheng Minzheng asked.

The poor scholar said, "Fifty taels of silver, will you buy it?"

Cheng Minzheng nodded, "I want it."

After the rise of the literary world, the painting world also rose, just like a pull-and-pull movement. Many painters used the books of the three new sages as materials for their paintings, which were very popular in the capital.

Tonight, the Hongzhi Emperor, who had not visited for a long time, walked on the street with Zhu Houzhao. He did not like to bring too many followers, which would destroy the happy and peaceful atmosphere, so he only brought Mou Bin.

The three of them were like the father and son and servants of an ordinary family.

Zhu Houzhao was very happy: "Dad, all the people who go into this building are men, there must be fun things, I also want to go in and take a look."

The Hongzhi Emperor's face twitched fiercely, and he wanted to show the dragon whip on the spot, but he thought it would destroy the atmosphere a bit, so he gave up.

Mou Bin leaned close to Zhu Houzhao's ear: "Your Highness, that is a brothel."

Zhu Houzhao was unhappy: "I can read, it is clearly called Chunming Pavilion!"
