Just when Jiang Changning's mind was spinning a thousand times, he heard Xiulan say in surprise outside: "My slave, please give your regards to the prince. May the prince be blessed."

Jiang Changning was stunned, why is King Jin here?

Didn't Keji seduce him into bed?

When King Jin walked into the room, he saw his little princess sitting on the kang, staring at him blankly.

He asked with a smile: "I haven't seen you for two days, so you don't remember your man?"

"Why are you here?" Jiang Changning asked.

"I used the wrong word. I'm going back to the courtyard, not here. What delicious food did you cook? Why don't you take it out for me to eat?" King Jin sat down next to her.

"How do you know you made sweet-scented osmanthus cake?" Jiang Changning asked in surprise.

Prince Jin pinched her chin and said with a smile: "I know everything and can do everything."

Jiang Changning opened his hand and asked, "Can you still eat it?"

"I've had my lunch for a while, of course I can eat it." King Jin didn't know how to send the soup.

"I mean, a beauty gave you something just now."

"The beauty who sends things is not you."

"I am a yellow-faced woman, so she can be called a beauty. The beauty I am talking about is the one who can dance and sing."

There was a smell of jealousy, and King Jin had a smile in his eyes. He had married a jealous man.

"Not all women can enter the Jingshe Hall." King Jin said seriously.

"What kind of woman can enter?" Jiang Changning asked tentatively.

"Only women with yellow faces can enter."

The corners of Jiang Changning's lips couldn't help but rise slightly. Prince Jin stretched out his hand to hug the person into his arms, "You little heartless one."

"Where do I have no conscience?" Jiang Changning said dullly.

He has always been an infatuated woman and a heartless man.

The two men reconciled as before, and the King of Jin returned to Rujingyuan.

After learning about this situation, Chen Yi was secretly glad that she did not act rashly.

Pu said: "You really have some tricks!"

It is really not an easy task to get the prince's favor from the princess.

King Jin was in a good mood after making peace with the princess and eating meat. In the morning, the emperor relented and agreed to trade with Chagatai.

During the discussion, the King of Jin was isolated.

Of course, the emperor still used words as a cover-up, "The King of Jin has just returned from investigating the case in Jiangnan. He is in charge of the Ministry of Rites and is also responsible for compiling books. He is very busy, so I will no longer add burdens to the King of Jin."

"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty." King Jin had never thought of discussing the mutual trade in person, so the emperor did not allow him to participate, which was exactly what he wanted.

The emperor ordered the Minister of Honglu Temple to take the lead, supervise the young minister of Siyi Pavilion, the right young minister of Honglu Temple, a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the chief minister of the Ministry of Rites as assistants, together with the Crown Prince Ding, to discuss mutual trade with the Chagatai delegation.

thing.

Although mutual trading is in the interests of both countries, how to open it? The emperor means: "We can no longer follow the old rules."

At that time, Guangzong closed the mutual trade between the two countries for many reasons. The most important reason was that Dongcha State used the money obtained from the mutual trade to mine iron ore and sell ironware, becoming more and more powerful.

During the Chenglong crisis, if there had not been civil strife in the Dongcha Kingdom, the old Jin king guarded the border and prevented the Dongcha Kingdom's cavalry from invading, and the Qin Dynasty would have been in danger.

In order to prevent Chagatai from using Qin's money to grow and develop, we cannot use money to trade with Chagatai. Which one is better?

Even if you exchange something for something, you still have to choose a suitable object.

The Minister of Honglu Temple asked Wai Lang, a member of the Ministry of Revenue, to come up with a charter. The Ministry of Revenue is in charge of the country's finances and has the best understanding of the country's property. It would be most appropriate for him to take the charter for what transactions should be used with Chagatai.

This was the idea of ​​the other four people. The household minister didn't think so. "I'm just a fifth-grade minister. You ask me to take the charter. What a joke."

Although he was angry, he did not dare to complain in front of Honglu Temple Minister and others. He had no choice but to let him have a low official rank.

Among the five officials involved in the negotiation, including Crown Prince Ding, he was half a rank higher than the head of the Ministry of Rites.

I was so worried that I kept drinking for several days without thinking of a good solution.

If you are not in your position, you will not pursue your political goals.

The King of Jin was not worried at all. He collected a large number of books from Jiangnan and led the officials of the Hanlin Academy to sort them into categories.

He found a book called "Funny Miscellaneous Stories", which recorded various strange stories and anecdotes about foxes, ghosts and gods, karma and retribution, admonishing good and punishing evil, etc.

The first story: There was an old woman who sold flowers. She said that a private house that had been vacant for many years was occupied by a fox. She admired the handsome boy next door, so she transformed herself into a young woman to seduce him.

Fearing that things will be revealed, the man will be frightened, so he will use his name to deceive the man.

The intimacy gradually became better, and they never gave up on each other, but told the truth, she was a fox girl.

The young man was delighted with his appearance, and did not hesitate to reject her, and still made love with her.

This book is really interesting. The little princess likes to read miscellaneous books. I think she will like this one.

At the beginning of the Youshi period, the King of Jin took the book home and prepared to give it to Jiang Changning.

As soon as he walked out of the Yamen, he was stopped by someone. The person who stopped him was the King of Jiujiang.

"Nephew Yuxian." The King of Jiujiang called him affectionately.

The King of Jin bowed his hands in greeting: "Uncle, are you waiting for your nephew here?"

"I have something to ask you." Jiujiang Wang smiled, "How about we go to a restaurant and chat while eating?"

"There's no need to eat. Let's find a teahouse and have tea and chat for a while." King Jin didn't want to eat at the same table with the alcoholic King of Jiujiang.

"It's already this hour. Why don't you drink some tea? Go to the restaurant and my uncle will treat you." The King of Jiujiang said and started to drag people away.

"I'd better invite my uncle." King Jin made a gesture of invitation and avoided King Jiujiang's hand.

When we arrived at the restaurant, we sat down in the private room on the second floor and ordered wine and food.

The King of Jiujiang is not in a hurry to talk about things, and the King of Jin is not in a hurry.

In fact, the King of Jin guessed why the King of Jiujiang came to him. One of the accomplices in the Jiangnan corruption case was the brother-in-law of the brother-in-law of the King of Jiujiang.

The relationship seemed a bit distant, but after investigation, it was found that this person relied on the influence of the Jiujiang Prince's Palace.

The King of Jin returned to the capital first, and deliberately asked Cao Jiang to escort the people back to the capital, just to see how the people hidden behind would operate after knowing what happened.

He sat firmly on the Diaoyutai and waited for the fish to take the bait. The King of Jiujiang arrived relatively late.

According to the tip, Cao Jiang will escort the prisoners to Beijing the day after tomorrow.

When criminals arrive in Beijing, they are handed over to the Ministry of Punishment. After a round of punishment, eight out of ten will confess. The two who do not will not survive the punishment and die.

When the food and wine were on the table, the King of Jiujiang brought a pot to pour wine for the King of Jin.

"Uncle, this is not appropriate. My nephew will pour it for you." King Jin used a clever trick to grab the wine pot and poured two glasses of wine. "Uncle, my nephew is here to help you."

"Speaking of which, our uncle and nephew haven't had a drink for a long time." The King of Jiujiang raised his glass.

The King of Jin smiled and said: "My nephew is busy with government affairs and has neglected it."

"It's good to be busy with government affairs. It's not like my family, which is doing nothing every day." The Prince of Jiujiang had a son late. His son is now sixteen years old and is still studying in the Imperial College.

When the King of Jin saw that the King of Jiujiang had finished drinking the wine, he poured him another glass.

He wouldn't say anything about the Prince of Jiujiang.

The King of Jiujiang had the merit of following the dragon, but unfortunately he was fond of drinking and drank too much. He made mistakes one after another and lost his sacred heart. Now he can only receive a sinecure.
