After hearing Zhu Yijun's feelings, Xu Wenchang was silent. Of course, he knew how many talented people in the southeast were, but from top to bottom, there were not many good things. When it comes to these things, Xu Wenchang was basically very sad.

"Your Majesty, can you ask me what you are looking for someone to do?" Xu Wenchang pondered for a moment, and asked.

Zhu Yijun sighed, there was nothing to hide about this matter, so he smiled and said, "I am going to build a shipyard!" As he said that, Zhu Yijun talked about the shipyard to Xu Wenchang.

Nodding, Xu Wenchang suddenly said, "So that's the case. If so, then Wang Daokun would be inappropriate."

"One of the way, Wang Daokun is indeed older, and secondly, Wang Daokun has indeed not been interested in his career over the years. However, I have a suitable candidate to recommend him to His Majesty. I believe he will not disappoint His Majesty."

Zhu Yijun was stunned and quickly smiled and said, "Tell me, who is it?"

"By the emperor, this person is the head of the Ministry of War, Song Yingchang." Xu Wenchang said with a smile.

"Song Yingchang is very young, just over thirty today, but he is a steady person and has great talent. He is also very knowledgeable about military affairs. I have been in Beijing for four years and have talked with him many times."

"This is an ideal and aspiring young man, and he is very focused."

Zhu Yijun listened to Xu Wenchang's words and thought of another question. When Xu Wenchang finished speaking, Zhu Yijun couldn't help but ask, "Does he have a younger brother named Song Yingxing?"

In the history of the late Ming Dynasty, the name Song Yingxing was definitely well-known.

Zhu Yijun vaguely remembered that Song Yingxing had an older brother, both of whom were excellent, and was called Er Song by people at that time. When he heard Song Yingchang's name, Zhu Yijun subconsciously wondered if he was Song Yingxing's brother.

"No, Song Yingchang is the only son!" Xu Wenchang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, who is this Song Yingxing?"

Zhu Yijun waved his hand: "It's nothing, I have forgotten where I have heard of it."

No, was Song Yingxing suffocated by his wings? Forget it, I hope they just don’t have anything to do! Thinking of this, Zhu Yijun continued, "Then I will meet this Song Yingchang. If it is really as you said, then I will let him do this."

Seeing that the main thing was finished, Zhu Yijun gave the wine to Xu Wenchang directly. As for keeping him in the palace for dinner, it doesn't exist. I'll give you wine, so go home to drink it.

When Xu Wenchang returned home, before he could pour out the wine, the old servant who served him came to tell him that the Wu family sent someone to send an invitation, and the purpose was very simple, and he invited Xu Wenchang to the banquet in the evening.

Looking at the invitation in his hand, Xu Wenchang suddenly hesitated.

I had a relationship with Wu Dui, and I went to have a free meal for a while. This time I actually put down the invitation directly and made it so formal. This is something that happened! Xu Wen suddenly noticed the difference here and understood what Wu Dui meant.

This is someone who wants to see him!

Wu Dui was not easy to refuse, so he used this method to remind himself that this banquet was not him, and he should consider whether he should consider it. However, this made Xu Wenchang curious, who was going to see him!

I was in the capital for three years, but no one insisted on seeing me, so I asked me to go to Wu Dui.

With Xu Wenchang's talent, he naturally understood that this must be for the emperor, or for himself walking in the emperor. After knocking on the invitation in his hand, Xu Wenchang said with a smile: "Then I'll go and see who is making a fool of himself!"

In the evening, Xu Wenchang came to a restaurant in Beijing according to the address he posted.

Looking at the restaurant’s sign: Dingxiangju!

This name is not a very elegant restaurant at first glance, but Xu Wenchang didn't care at all. He walked inside. The waiter at the door smiled and greeted him, whispering Shaoxing dialect, "Mr. Xu, you are here!"

When Xu Wenchang heard this, he said, "Yeah, this is a fellow villager!"

It seems that the treat was really hard. Xu Wenchang smiled and said to the waiter: "Do you know I am Xu Wenchang?"

"Look at what you said, you are a celebrity in our Shaoxing. Who doesn't know your name? Please come in there!" As he said that, he made a gesture of invitation and smiled and led the way for Xu Wenchang in front.

Xu Wenchang followed the waiter in and found that there was not a single customer in the restaurant. Obviously, the person who invited the guests had booked the place. It seemed that this person was not only careful, but also very rich!

After thinking for a while, Xu Wenchang smiled and said, "I wonder if you are from Anhui or Shanxi?"

As soon as Xu Wei said, a man upstairs smiled and said, "I have heard that Xu Wei and Xu Wenchang are a talented man of the world. They are not only quick in their minds, but also have unparalleled wisdom and plans. When I saw him today, I am indeed well-known."

"Li Zhongxing, Shanxi, have met Xu Da Caizi!" As he said that, Li Zhongxing smiled and hugged Xu Wenchang.

"So it's an old friend!" Xu Wenchang also smiled. After seeing Li Zhongxing, Xu Wenchang said: "Look at your spirit and look good. It seems that there is no change compared to when I was in Shanxi!"

Li Zhongxing also smiled and said, "You are more free and easy and energetic!"

After the host and guest seated, Li Zhongxing pointed to his son and said, "This is Li Xi, a dog, who is not good enough. He took him out to see the world. After all, I am old and I can't do anything."

"The son is a handsome man, okay!" Xu Wenchang said with a smile as he looked at Li Zhongxing.

Li Zhongxing also smiled and asked Li Xi to greet Xu Wenchang. After the greetings, Li Zhongxing smiled and said, "I heard that Wenchang was in the capital the day before yesterday, so I invited him with a shameless face. I hope Wenchang will not be surprised."

"I searched all over the capital and found this Dingxiangju. It is said that their Shaoxing cuisine is the most authentic."

After the wine and food were served, the two of them started eating and drinking. Xu Wenchang did not refuse everyone and the food was very delicious. Anyway, it was Li Zhongxing who was in trouble, but Xu Wenchang. Whoever was worried would know? Don’t say that, this dish was quite delicious.

It seems that I can come here often in the future!

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Li Zhongxing put down his wine glass and then said, "Wen Chang, please come here today. Li has something to ask for!

Li Zhongxing is a smart person. He knew that Xu Wenchang could not see his intention. Instead of taking a turn, it would be easier to say something. Xu Wenchang would do it if he could do it, and forget it if he couldn't.

"Tell me!" Xu Wenchang also put down his chopsticks and said with a smile.

"That's right, I want to meet Your Majesty!" Li Zhongxing didn't hesitate and said directly: "It's just that there is no way, so please ask Wen Chang to submit it on his behalf."

Xu Wenchang was stunned. He didn't expect that Li Zhongxing asked him to help him was the one who was busy.

After hesitating for a moment, Xu Wenchang said to Li Zhongxing with a serious face: "Although you are a famous family in Shanxi, we all know that your Li family actually started out as a salt merchant and had too much entanglement with the royal family. Have you ever thought about the end?"

Of course I thought about it.

How could Li Zhongxing not have expected that since ancient times, merchants have been lowly and scholars have looked down on you, let alone the royal family? The Li family believes that merchants are rich and do not stand out. Now that they are around the emperor, if they are not careful, they will end up being broken into pieces!

After looking at Xu Wenchang, Li Zhongxing sighed helplessly: "But if you don't do this, the Li family will be in trouble now."

Xu Wenchang thought for a while and sighed, "I was scared by the Qian family in Hejian? I can tell you that if your Li family did not commit crimes, the court would not do you, and the emperor would not do you."

After a while of silence, Li Zhongxing directly asked, "I'm afraid I can't continue to do the salt transaction in the future?"

"I'll tell you the truth. The emperor has never told me about salt, nor has I ever asked about it." Xu Wenchang waved his hand and said, "If you want to get any information from me, then you have found the wrong person."

"If you want to meet the emperor, I can report it to the emperor for you. As for whether the emperor sees you or not, it depends on the holy intention."

Li Zhongxing was silent. Although Xu Wenchang didn't say much, he had already told himself that as long as he did not commit crimes or did nothing bad, neither the court nor the emperor would touch him.

Li Zhongxing did not doubt Xu Wenchang's words, so at this moment, he hesitated a little.

"I still want to face Your Majesty, please help me report to Your Majesty!" Li Zhongxing thought for a while, and finally gritted his teeth and spoke.

This time, Li Zhongxing decided to believe his judgment. Although he didn't know what the final direction of the matter would be, he was willing to bet this time. With Xu Wenchang's words, Li Zhongxing was more willing to bet this time.

If you succeed, you will soar to the sky; if you fail, you will be defeated and you will not be able to confiscate your family.

He looked at Li Zhongxing deeply. Although Xu Wenchang didn't know what news he had received, his courage was useless. After thinking about it, Xu Wenchang said, "Okay, I'll help you."

After the talks were over, the meal was almost done, and the two of them parted.

After seeing Xu Wenchang away, Li Xi looked at his father who was sitting dejectedly and asked hesitantly: "Dad, why take risks? Didn't Xu Wenchang say that as long as we have not committed crimes, there will be no danger this time."

"Yes! There will be no danger." Li Zhongxing said with a smile: "There will be no danger, but there will be no chance."

"Do you know the Wuqing Bo Mansion? Our family has helped them sell mirrors over the years, especially for the Ola. They are basically all our goods. I got a piece of news from the Wuqing Bo Mansion."

"Fifty percent of the transaction of this glass belongs to the emperor and 50% of the profit."

"It's not sent to the inner treasury, it's Your Majesty's own." When he said this, Li Zhongxing said in a deep voice: "In addition to the salt incident this time, I concluded that the emperor would use merchants and would be of great use, but he would definitely fight before using it."
