Chapter eight hundred and forty first rival

Bi Ziyan listened to Zhu Xu's words and felt that this series of things was about to settle down.

He did not dare to "stimulate" Zhu Xu, and tried to politely say some of his ideas, especially the reform of the Ministry of Revenue, which was very cautious.

Zhu Xu listened to Bi Ziyan's words and refuted a lot.

First, Bi Ziyan is too anxious and has done some things before, and second, he also wants to protect Zhou Yingqiu and Fu Changzong. Third, the situation of the dynasty changes too much, which will push some people who were originally stable to the "unstable" side.

Bi Ziyan saw Zhu Xu's purpose clearly this time, and the response was not as heavy and difficult as before, and he bargained for a while.

Zhu Xu could feel Bi Ziyan's desire for power and was anxious. On the contrary, he was calm and did not rush or slow down.

The two left the Royal Court one after another and stopped at the door.

Zhu Xu looked at the street with his hands behind his back and said with a thoughtful look: "Sir Bi, the cabinet now has a heavy responsibility. You must be cautious and think twice before acting, especially those related to the national economy and people's livelihood of the Ming Dynasty. You must conduct extensive investigations and listen to different ideas. You cannot sit in the classroom and take out your pen to make a decision. I have learned a lot during this trip to Beijing. You should also go out for a walk more and see and learn about the real situation of the Ming Dynasty..."

Bi Ziyan also felt that the Ming Dynasty was changing very quickly now, and raised his hand without hesitation and said, "I obey the order."

Zhu Xu felt that it was almost done, so he passed by more, so he waved his hand and said, "Master Bi, go and do it. We will probably be busy all the time in the future."

"Yes." Bi Ziyan raised his hand heavily in his heart. Although Zhu Xu didn't say much to him and expressed dissatisfaction, his tone still revealed a strong sense of unhappiness, and their cabinet life would be even harder in the future.

Zhu Xu watched him leave, thinking that something had to speed up.

"Uncle, are we going to find my aunt now?" Xiao Yongning said with his little head exposed and raised his face.

Zhu Xu glanced at her and said, "Well, let's go, be honest with me. If something goes wrong again, I will hang you in Jingyang Palace for ten days and half a month."

The little girl frowned and hummed.

Li Xiangjun pursed her lips, looked up at Zhu Xu with her face, and kept blinking.

Zhu Xu led a group of people back, walking back calmly and strolling on Zhengyangmen Street.

The Zhang family did not live in the Duke of England's Mansion, but was in Jinchengfang to the north of the Chenghuang Temple, that is, the west of the city, near Fuchengmen.

A group of people bypassed Xuanwu Gate, entered Xuanwu Gate Street, and headed straight to the north.

"Uncle, I am going to Guangji Temple, I am going to Baita Temple..."

Xiao Yongning was so happy that she wanted to jump up from a distance. She wanted to go to these temples that were so popular that she had already seen a few famous temples. This time she was so close that she was a little excited.

Zhu Xu grabbed her collar and said, "It won't work today, another day."

The little girl pouted and was held up by Zhu Xu with unwillingness.

Turning around Fuchengmen Street, Zhu Xu and others came to a yard. It looked very ordinary, and the plaque of "Zhang Mansion" was also mottled and had been through the storm for a long time.

Zhu Xu stood in front of the door and looked at it, pinched his chin with one hand, and said to himself: "Is this a blind date or an interview?"

Xiao Yongning couldn't wait, and pulled Zhu Xu's clothes and said, "Uncle, let's go in. The pastries made by Xiao Aunt are so delicious, and they are all hungry..."

Zhu Xu smiled and walked forward in person, pulled the iron ring and patted the door.

The door opened quickly, and the guard looked at Zhu Xu very strangely. Before he could ask, Xiao Yongning had already crossed the threshold and shouted loudly: "Come in quickly, I'll go find my aunt first."

When the guard heard the voice, he recognized that Princess Yongning was coming again. He immediately looked anxious and ran into the room without caring about Zhu Xu and others.

The last time Princess Yongning made a mess at the Zhang family, which made the Zhang family unable to raise their heads in the capital. This time they did not dare to be careless.

Zhu Xu was left alone, blinked, touched his nose, and had to go in by himself.

Xiao Yongning was unobstructed, like a small whirlwind, and rushed straight to the two ladies of the Zhang family. At the entrance of the courtyard, he saw a scholar dressed in a pretty dressed scholar facing the far door and said with great thoughts: "Please tell the young lady, I am sincere to her, the sea is gone and the rocks are gone, and I am infatuated. Please, let us meet and take a look..."

Xiao Yongning came over, snorted, slapped the wooden door hard, and shouted: "Open the door quickly, I'm here to see my aunt, open the door quickly..."

It was quiet inside for a while, but it didn't make a sound for a long time.

The pretty young man turned his head to look at Xiao Yongning, frowned, and said solemnly: "I am in love with the eldest lady. She will never enter the palace. Please ask the princess to return to the palace and tell the emperor that it is not sweet to force melons. Don't do the matter of breaking up the couple and forcing the people to steal the girl..."

"I hate people like you the most. It's so sour..."

Xiao Yongning looked at him with his head raised and hummed, "Auntie doesn't like you at all. You are pestering you and you are saying that you are in love with each other... Is that my uncle's person? Can you compare with my uncle?"

The young man looked at Xiao Yongning, frowned and frowned, and said, "I didn't want to be as good as a child, but when I talked about this, I have to tell you clearly, so that you won't go astray at such a young age. Miss Zhang has never seen the emperor before, so how could she marry a stranger? And when she entered the palace as deep as the sea, how could she bear it? The emperor is the emperor, how could he be so lustful that he robbed a girl from the palace? I don't know that history books are like a knife?"

Xiao Yongning pursed his lips and said, "Didn't it meant the orders of his parents or the words of the matchmaker?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, looked at Xiao Yongning seriously, and said, "Then we must be in love with each other and respect each other as guests. If we don't like each other, how can we live our lives together for the rest of our lives?"

The little guy looked at him and said, "If you don't see me, you will mean that she doesn't like you. Why do you still pester me like this? Don't you know how terrifying people say?"

The young man looked at Xiao Yongning and frowned and said, "Ms. Zhang and I have never acted like to surpass etiquette. We have never done anything to do with affection and etiquette. How could we ever ruin the reputation of the lady? Besides, my heart can shine on the sun and the moon, so why should we be afraid of others' words?"

Xiao Yongning opened his mouth, but couldn't even say anything. He immediately frowned and began to think about it.

Not long after, the door quietly opened, and a girl in green stuck her head out. When she saw Yongning, she was overjoyed and said, "Princess, come in quickly."

When Xiao Yongning saw her, he looked happy, and then glared at the young man with his eyes bulging and said angrily: "The stones in the pit are smelly and hard. Go away quickly, otherwise you will be arrested in prison!"

The young man was about to argue again, but Xiao Yongning had already walked into the yard with his little body on his side. When he saw it, he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Miss. Second Miss, please report it. I'll say that the young master is asking for a meeting. Please be sure to see him as soon as he meets him, otherwise the young master will go on a hunger strike to show his ambition!"

There was no movement inside, only the wooden doors around the prison were still making trembling sounds.

The green clothes were Zhang Shu, the second lady of Zhang family. She looked at Xiao Yongning with her lips and asked while walking, "Princess, you must have sneaked out again, right?"

Xiao Yongning smiled and said, "No, I am here to give my aunt a surprise today."

Zhang Shu blinked, her eyes flashed with curiosity and said, "What surprise? Could it be that the palace has already decided on the time to marry my sister?"

Xiao Yongning bulged his little face, narrowed his big eyes into a line, and jumped toward the small building not far ahead.

Zhang Shu opened her eyes wide and exclaimed: "Really?"

She stopped, her pretty face was overjoyed, her eyes flashed for a while, and she attracted a maid and whispered.

The maid's expression changed slightly, and she responded quickly and left quickly.

After a while, Xiao Yongning had already run to Xiulou, rushed to Zhang Yun, who was wearing red clothes and standing in front of the door, and shouted loudly: "Auntie, I'm here to see you..."

Zhang Yun was wearing a red coat, not bloated, but more graceful. Her pretty face was like water and her eyes were clear. She watched Xiao Yongning rush over and shook her head with a chuckle and said, "Princess, don't call me that anymore, otherwise I'm really shameless to go out."

In fact, she was also worried. Although the rumors spread from the palace were a foregone conclusion, if there was a real possibility, she would have no way to survive except to show her ambitions.

Xiao Yongning ignored these things and said with his little face, "Auntie, I'm hungry, I want to eat the pastries you made..."

Zhang Yun took Xiao Yongning's hand and said with a smile: "Come in quickly. I happened to do some yesterday. By the way, how could the Empress Dowager allow the princess to leave the palace on such a cold day?"

Zhang Shu also came in and asked curiously: "Yes, I'm also surprised, Princess, you came out again, right? You hurt us last time, and my sister is still in custody..."

Xiao Yongning ate the pastry and ignored the two of them at all.

The two sisters looked at each other, and Zhang Yun sat opposite Yongning with some lingering fear, poured her a cup of tea, and whispered: "Princess, the capital is not very peaceful now, don't do anything randomly."

"Yeah." Xiao Yongning nodded, looking obedient.

Zhang Yun was about to ask again, a middle-aged woman, surrounded by seven or eight maids, quickly came to Xiulou and rushed straight to Yongning. The middle-aged woman smiled and bowed to Yongning, saying, "Zhang Li has seen the princess, welcome the princess to our house as a guest."

Xiao Yongning looked up at her and turned to look at Zhang Yun.

Zhang Yun also looked puzzled and walked over and whispered: "Mom, what's wrong?"

Zhang Li clapped Zhang Jun's little hand, smiled even more, sat opposite Yongning, and said, "Princess, but what do the Empress Dowager have to tell the civilian women?"

Xiao Yongning took a sip of tea, took the pastry, blinked, and said with an innocent look: "No."

Zhang Li was slightly stunned, looked at Xiao Yongning, and turned to Zhang Shu again.

Zhang Shu shook her head slightly, her eyes still looking at Xiao Yongning.

Zhang Yun also reacted at this moment, his pretty face turned slightly red, and he whispered in Zhang Li's ear: "Mom, don't say much..."

The Zhang family had become a joke in the capital because of Xiao Yongning's nonsense. If it happened again, their Zhang family would have no shame to see anyone.

Zhang Li was a little disappointed, his face froze. Looking at Xiao Yongning, he still smiled and said, "Princess sits for a while, I will ask someone to send the princess back early to avoid worrying the Queen Mother."

"oh,"
