Yan Shifan nodded when he heard Yan Song's words. Now the limelight is tight and there is no way. The emperor didn't know what medicine he had taken, so he actually started to rectify the administration.

And in Xu Jie's mansion, Xu Jie sat there drinking a little wine. He was so happy. Now the officials have to pay the money, but he doesn't need it. Fortunately, he kept it and returned the money. Otherwise, he would probably have to suffer from it now. With so much money, although he has it at home, it is also a troublesome to raise it all.

"Dad, do you know that those officials are raising money now!" Xu Fan came back from outside at this time and asked Xu Jie.

"Yes!" Xu Jie nodded.

"Dad, you are still wise. Did Zhang Hao notify you?" Xu Fan sat down and looked at Xu Jie and asked.

"What's the matter?" Liang asked, and Xu Shiyun also looked at her father.

"Hey, yes, it was him who reminded me, don't mention him. This kid is so bad. Today, he was in the Danfang. He said he wanted to pay to hammer our three cabinet ministers to death. He didn't think about it. I am his father-in-law, and he wants to hammer me to death!" Xu Jie sat there and said a little angrily. He was still very happy at first, but now when he mentioned Zhang Hao, he was unhappy.

"Dad, he, he, can't?" Xu Shiyun said anxiously when she heard this.

"Not yet? As soon as he entered the alchemy room, he said he would hammer us to death, and said he would give the emperor a hundred thousand taels of silver and hammer us three!" Xu Jie said angrily.

"Oh!" When Xu Shiyun heard this, she sat there and couldn't say anything.

"Dad, you misunderstand it. I feel that Zhang Hao is easy to talk and very polite!" Xu Fan also looked at Xu Jie in surprise and said.

"Misunderstanding? There are also misunderstandings. Oh, forget it, I won't talk about him, but what does Zhang Rong mean? It's been so long, so I won't come!" Xu Jie said with some worries.

"Hasn't you written a letter to you?" Xu Fan asked.

"But I didn't give me some time! I don't know what Zhang Rong was thinking!" Xu Jie was still a little worried. Xu Shiyun was obviously arguing for marrying into the British Duke's Mansion. Even if she was just Zhang Hao's identity, she was still arguing for him. Zhang Hao is now the marquis.

At this moment, Zhang Rong was back at the Duke of England's mansion.

When Xu saw Zhang Rong coming back, he hurried over and unarmed him.

"Have you eaten it? Come back at this order!" Xu asked.

"I've eaten in the military camp. I'm back and staying for a day and asked Zhang Li to come over!

Tomorrow, I have to settle the matter when I go to Xujie's mansion, otherwise people will say we are rude. In addition, let Zhang Hao stay at home tomorrow morning and go with us!" Zhang Rong stood there and said, while Xu continued to take off his armor.

"Okay, everything is ready, just wait for you, the head of the family to come back. If you don't come back, I will ask Li'er to go to the military camp to find you. You won't worry about your son's marriage!" Xu said with a smile.

Soon, Zhang Li came over.

"You go to Xu Jie's mansion now and tell Xu Jie that he will take a leave tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, we will visit us and discuss the lottery!" Zhang Rong sat in the living room, holding a teacup and said to Zhang Li.

"Hey, I'll go now, what else should I explain?" Zhang Li nodded and asked at Zhang Rong.

"Well, there's nothing more. Just this matter. You have to remember to let your brother be at home tomorrow morning and go together tomorrow morning!" Zhang Rong continued to say to Zhang Li.

"I know, am I leaving?" Zhang Li looked at Zhang Rong, Zhang Rong nodded, and Zhang Li went out. On Xu Jie's side, Xu Jie had just finished his meal and sat in the study and looked at the official document.

"Master, Master, Zhang Li, the eldest son of the British Duke's Mansion, asked for a meeting!" At this time, the butler's voice came from outside the study.

"Oh, please invite!" When Xu Jie heard this, he immediately put down the official documents, stood up, and walked outside. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the living room, Zhang Li entered the mansion.

"I have met Mr. Xu!" Zhang Li came over and bowed and said.

"Hey, come and sit here, it's cold outside!" Xu Jie said with a smile.

"Hey, thank you Mr. Xu!" Zhang Li nodded with a smile, then sat down in the living room, and a servant immediately served Zhang Li tea.

"Ge Lao Xu, my father just came back from the military camp tonight and asked me to come and notify you that tomorrow morning, my father wants to bring his second brother to collect the lottery. I wonder if you can free up your time?" Zhang Li put down the teacup and asked Xu Jie's question.

"Oh, tomorrow morning?" Xu Jie asked at Zhang Li when he heard this.

"Yes, my father is not free to train the Imperial Guards now. This matter has been decided long ago, but until now, my father feels very sorry. Now, after arranging the military camp affairs today, he is back!" Zhang Li said with a smile at Xu Jie, speaking very appropriately.

"Okay, then tomorrow morning, I also know that the British Duke is busy. I will send someone to the cabinet to ask for leave tomorrow morning, and I will wait at home tomorrow morning!" Xu Jie nodded and said with a smile.

"Well, okay, then thank you Mr. Xu for your understanding!" Zhang Li stood up and said with a polite look.

"Hey, I can't say that, I can't say that, come and have tea!" Xu Jie said to Zhang Li with a smile.

"Yes, thank you Master Xu!" Zhang Li nodded and sat down.

"By the way, have you not taken office in public office yet? But do you have plans to develop into a civil servant?" Xu Jie looked at Zhang Li and asked.

"Oh, no, I'm not good at it, I'm too weak, but my second brother is training me every day now, and it's much better recently, otherwise, in winter, how dare I come out!

I guess I'll be in the army at that time. The British Duke's Mansion can only join the army. My second brother is the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture this time and is also in danger. I guess I won't do anything for a long time." Zhang Li smiled and said to Xu Jie.

"Yes, then you will be the governor of the Imperial Guards. Then Zhang Hao can also help you manage the army." Xu Jie nodded and said.

"The emperor probably has other arrangements for the second brother, maybe to assist me, or to lead the army alone. After all, the second brother is also a marquis, a military general, and has fought wars and is aware of military affairs. Therefore, the leader may be stationed on the border, but it probably won't be possible in recent years. He is still young and needs training!" Zhang Li said to Xu Jie.

"Oh, too, but Zhang Hao still had some tricks in the war. He defeated the Tatars twice and established the prestige of the Ming Dynasty!" Xu Jie said, touching his beard.

"Well, Mr. Xu, my brother is sometimes very impulsive. As his father-in-law, sometimes he is more tolerant. He has no intention of harming others. If he supports his temper, he will not be able to control it. In the future, please be more tolerant. As a brother, I will accompany you here first!" Zhang Li said and stood up.

"Hey hey, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, I also know Zhang Hao's personality, it's okay!" Xu Jie quickly stopped Zhang Li, but he couldn't let Zhang Li salute.

"Thank you, Mr. Xu. By the way, my second brother's Marquis' Mansion has almost purchased the materials. I have done them myself, and they are all made with high-quality materials. Now I have spent about 300,000 taels of silver. It is estimated that all of them will cost 600,000 taels of gold. The mansion is very beautiful. I have specially found relevant craftsmen. Please rest assured about this.

In addition, my younger brother is a marquis, who works as a job in the Jinyiwei, and is also the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, and also has shares in the workshop. There will be no problem living in the future and will be better than ordinary families. As long as my younger brother and sister will be in charge of the family, I will probably be very rich!" Zhang Li continued to say to Xu Jie,

Xu Jie nodded.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Li said goodbye, and Liang and Xu Fan also came out from behind.

"I have to say that people from the Duke of England are born with noble character. Look at Zhang Li, they speak without being humble and not being verified, and have reasonable and well-founded. The key is that Zhang Hao has not learned the cultivation of his brother?" Xu Jie said a little regretfully. It would be great if Zhang Li was his son-in-law.

But when I think about it next, Zhang Li is in better health now and is so weak before. As his son-in-law, I am worried too!

"Yes, but I feel that Zhang Hao is OK, and he is still very tutored!" Xu Fan nodded and said,

When Xu Jie heard this, he looked at Xu Fan. He had met Zhang Hao so many times. Who is Zhang Hao? How could he not know?

Early the next morning, Zhang Hao got up and went to exercise his elder brother. During the exercise, Zhang Li told Zhang Hao about going to win the lottery today.

"Today? Dad is back?" Zhang Hao looked at Zhang Li in surprise and asked.

"Well, I'm back. I came back last night. You went to take leave this morning. I guess the emperor would agree!" Zhang Li looked at Zhang Hao and said.

"Okay, I haven't seen my wife for a long time!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"You kid, can you be more handsome? You haven't passed the door yet! You are not polite at all!" Zhang Li stared at Zhang Hao and warned.

"What are you afraid of? Sooner or later, she will run away?" Zhang Hao looked at Zhang Li and said in a whisper.

"I'm too lazy to fight with you, I can't beat you now!" Zhang Li didn't want to talk to Zhang Hao, it didn't make sense. As his elder brother for so many years, he had already figured out Zhang Hao's temper.

After dinner, Zhang Hao went to wash up, and then went to Xu Jie's house with Zhang Rong. When the British Duke's Mansion went out, the situation was certainly indispensable. Not to mention the others, there were only those gifts. Fifty people were carrying them, and there were seventy or eighty boxes.

"Oh, the hometown of Xuge is really going to make a fortune this time!" The people nodded and said, and Xu Jie was ready early in the morning and the door was also opened. Xu Fan was waiting outside, waiting for Zhang Rong and the others to arrive.

ps: Today, the new keyboard has arrived, and I feel a little uncomfortable with typing. I have been using the keyboard for a few years before, but suddenly I changed the keyboard and typing has been much slower, so it is a bit late. When I get used to it, it will be updated around 2 noon. Thank you for your support!
