Chapter 64: Qingfeng Returns to the City
Wang Gui looked at Li Shimin with a dazed glance. Even when Li Yuan and Pei Ji left, he didn't notice.
He finally woke up from the sudden appointment, and now his brain fell into a blank space again.
Pei Ji followed Li Yuan, "Is the saint really planning to let the King of Qin win over that Wang Gui?"
"What else?" Li Yuan smiled with a successful conspiracy, "Jiancheng enfeoffed the three people inside and outside Chang'an City, and Chu Liang and Xu Jingzong also surrendered to him. On the other hand, although some people in Erlang have not dispersed, if he is always in a weak position, people's hearts will sooner or later disperse.
Since Erlang does not want military power on the surface, he will let Wang Gui join his disciples. It is always bad to build it too strong.
When Wang Gui was chosen, he was not only poor in his family, but also had few clan members, and his behavior was considered honest. The most important thing was that he had turned against Jiancheng.
If he continues to be a commoner, he will be free and easy. Now that he is the president, he has any other choice besides seeking Erlang?"
Looking at Pei Ji with a depressed look, Li Yuan comforted: "Although I didn't let the secretaries of Pei Jian enter this time, I just made a gesture to those civil and military officials. When Wang Gui makes some achievements, will he forget Pei Jian?"
Although Li Yuan had said this before, Pei Ji was still a little unhappy.
What does this bank do? If you miss it casually every day, it will be enough for him to squander it in one year. If it takes three to five years...
Wang Gui was in a daze there. While Li Shimin was looking at him, he was thinking about what had just happened, "Can Wang Gui be used for him?"
Wang Gui also experienced the killings at the end of the Sui Dynasty. He should not have been so worried about gains and losses, but today's two things are too much beyond his imagination.
He was appointed as the president, perhaps because the saint had no intention. But the latter news...
Thinking of this, Wang Gui looked up and looked at Li Shimin with bright eyes, "Gui, pay homage to His Highness the King of Qin."
Li Shimin was delighted and quickly helped Wang Gui up, "Why should President Wang..."
Wang Gui now understood. Although the prince now possesses the righteousness of the eldest son and is powerful, he must be no rival to the King of Qin.
If the words said by the saint just now were spread, except for those Guanlong families who were involved too much in their interests, what would the civil and military officials from Shandong gentry and ordinary poor families reacted?
Why do everyone join the career? Apart from shining the family and tying their wives and children, who is not trying to be rich? If they know that they have been in charge of money and have become the King of Qin and are not moved, they can only say that they have reached the state of sages and wise men.
Wang Gui handed the list to Li Shimin with both hands, "Please take a look at the King of Qin."
Even if Wang Gui doesn't show Li Shimin the list now, he will know sooner or later, but he wants to express an attitude, an attitude that only Li Shimin will follow!
Li Shimin showed a sincere smile.
Wang Gui was able to remain sober after suddenly obtaining such an official position. His mind and attitude were touched by Li Shimin, and he also gained the trust of Li Shimin.
"Shujie, please go and meet your subordinates for the time being. Tonight, I will invite Shujie in the mansion. If you have any questions, I will say it at the dinner."
Yin Qingfeng got up in the morning and took the students to run and exercise as usual. During breakfast, he called Fan Yu Niang, "Madam Fan, sit down and have a meal together."
Fan Yuniang was a little surprised and looked at Yin Qingfeng with some surprise.
"Sister Fan, sit down." Yue Mei didn't have the concept of being a housewife, so she didn't care about the rules that the slave could not eat at the same table with her master.
When she was in Shengpingfang, her husband made even the food for her, and she was also a servant at that time. Now she was just invited Fan Yuniang to have a meal together, and Yuemei would not think too much about it.
The rules of not sleeping and not eating are useless to Yin Qingfeng, "Yuemei and I will move back to the city for a while in the afternoon."
Yuemei suddenly cheered, "Will we go see the baby?"
Yin Qingfeng grimaced at her and continued to say to Fan Yuniang: "Tomorrow I will arrange someone to pick up Fan Niang. You will take those female teachers and students to temporarily live in the Duke of Wu's Mansion.
After I returned to the city, I probably couldn’t have any leisure time. You arranged for those teachers to teach the students, but also to teach the adopted sons of Duke Wu.”
Although the Duke of Yun’s Mansion is not smaller than Du Fuwei’s place, it is even larger. However, the mansion is sparsely populated and there were not so many houses before. If people of 60 or 70 were stuffed in one go, they would definitely not be able to live there.
After being sent back to bed by Yin Qingfeng last night, Fan Yuniang tried to analyze the reasons for Li Shimin's visit late at night. Now Yin Qingfeng has arranged for everyone in the villa to return to the city, and the reason may be even more complicated than she imagined.
"Sister obeys the order."
After breakfast, Yin Qingfeng called Yin Han, "Han, I will take care of the affairs. I will take Mrs. Ren and the people from the inner house to live back to the city for a while, and the villa will be left to you to manage.
The construction of the new home is also supervised by Ren Wu. Just coordinate the manpower and material resources. If the meat and poultry provided in the east of the city are not enough, don’t be afraid of spending money. Go directly to the city to buy it, and you must ensure that the tenants eat well.
The date of my return is uncertain. When the summer villa is harvested, you will ask the farmers and farmers who have signed the contract and have not yet signed the contract to see how our villa is planted.
Tell them that as long as they plant according to the method of our villa, their profits will be.
Zhang Defu will purchase a large number of sheep and donkeys in the second half of the year, and the feed must be kept up. It depends on how many contracts you can sign."
After taking a nap as usual, Yin Qingfeng was urging by the excited Yuemei to set off quickly. It happened that Fan Yuniang came in and said that the people sent by Li Shimin had already arrived outside the villa.
There were not many items to bring, and the carriage had been loaded, so Yin Qingfeng no longer wasted time. After returning to the city, he had to go to Du Fuwei's place.
Under the slope outside the villa, in addition to the carriage prepared for Yuemei, there was also a team of cavalry.
When Yin Qingfeng was wearing a white knight outfit and appeared with Bai Xue behind him, the eyes of these cavalrymen were wide open.
The man in charge even swayed the reins in his hand and strode to Yin Qingfeng.
"Tsk tsk~~What a majestic Dayuan horse~~~~" This man only had snow in his eyes. He praised him while circling around snow.
Yin Qingfeng gave in to the side without caring about it.
After appreciating Bai Xue, the man turned around to look for Yin Qingfeng's figure, "I say, Young Master Yin, how about you give this horse to me, Lao Cheng?"
From his loud voice, you can tell that this is a middle-aged man with a strong middle-aged spirit and a good waist and kidneys.
Yin Qingfeng smiled and shook his head, "This was given to the boy's ancestors by the King of Qin back then."
“Oh~~~”
The man looked at Bai Xue in disappointment for a long time before turning around and said to Yin Qingfeng: "My name is Cheng Zhijie, and I can call me Uncle Cheng in the future."
"Boy Yin Qingfeng has seen it..."
"Cheng Zhijie? Cheng Yaojin? The Demon King in "Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties"?"
Yin Qingfeng stopped halfway through the ceremony, "Is this man Cheng Yaojin?"
Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin was still looking at Bai Xue reluctantly at this time.
“…See the Duke of the Process.”
"Ha, you also know that I, Old Cheng, is Duke of the Kingdom of China. Did Duke of Jiao tell you?"
At first, Cheng Yaojin was quite excited. When he spoke to Yin Qiao, he showed a sad expression on his face, "It's a pity that you, Ah Weng, went too early.
Back then... Hey~~~ If you, Ah Weng, were still there, how could you wait for the King of Qin to be bullied by that bullshit prince! And the rebellious Xu Jingzong, how dare you betray the King of Qin?"
Yin Qingfeng felt "oh" in his heart. It seemed that his cheap grandfather was quite prestigious among Li Shimin's subordinates.
"Oh~~~" Cheng Yaojin sighed again, then looked at Yin Qingfeng with joy, "You young man is a good young man, but he was actually given a marriage by the King of Qin! I don't know if the King of Qin was thinking about your friendship, or if you are a kid who is valued by the King of Qin.
But it’s good, I’ll just wait for you in a few years, just like you, Ah Weng, to serve the King of Qin!”
As he said that, he patted Yin Qingfeng on the shoulder.
Yin Qingfeng said politely: "My nephew will be counting on Uncle Cheng's care in the future."
"Hahaha, OK! You guys can talk! Let's talk while walking."
