Chapter 2268 Young Master in Splendid Clothes and Riding a Horse

The long knife was at the side of his neck, and Lin Zheng's eyes were cold. The businessman believed that if he was the only one who dared to lie, he would be chopped into pieces with a knife.

He wanted to lie, but the Ming army had already tied their ship behind a treasure ship, which was obviously not ready to let them leave.

He was worried that he would be exposed!

So he bowed his head.

"Sir, I vaguely saw three ships, but I didn't see them clearly. We are avoiding them."

At this time, he was very calm: "There are pirates here. Those natives will come to intercept us in small boats, and then use poisonous arrows... Although they rarely succeed, they are still a threat."

Yes, they are afraid of seeing ships outside the Ming fleet, because most of them are pirates.

"This sea area belongs to the Ming Dynasty. When we saw that the three ships looked wrong, we didn't dare to approach them, so we hid quickly."

"how long it has been?"

Lin Zheng asked with his last hope.

The businessman said, and the interpreter changed the unit and said, "It's been almost two hours now."

"grown ups!"

The deputy general said: "Including the round trip, it will be four hours. If we continue to pursue, there will be no news from the fleet!"

Lin was deep in thought, and after a while he said: "Send a boat back to report the news, let's continue chasing!"

…

Celebrating New Year at sea is not a good idea, at least there won’t be any warship barbecue, let alone a big meal.

So the three years of Xuande passed quietly.

When Fang Xing was talking about spring, Tudou was also looking forward to spring.

Spring will come very late in Peiping.

The snow in Fangjiazhuang was still there. Zhang Shuhui went to the palace early in the morning to see the queen. The Fang family regarded potatoes as the most respected person.

He did not go to class but studied at home.

He was the only one in the entire academy who had this privilege, and no one commented.

Fangjiazhuang is very quiet. There is nothing happening on the village now. The farmers are idle at home, taking care of the livestock and the children who are not studying.

It is a tradition to eat thin food when you are free and eat dry food when you are busy, but now Fangjiazhuang is not that shabby.

A few old men were walking around the snow-covered fields holding oil cakes, happily feeling the good omen of next year's harvest.

"My daughter-in-law is no longer good at running the household. She makes pancakes early in the morning, ugh!"

An old man sighed, but there was a frown between his brows.

Another old man also smiled and said: "Where could you get pancakes at this time in the past? You had to wait until noon to get porridge. Hey! Thinking of those days, it feels like I've had a nap."

The old man from before swallowed the fried cake in his mouth and said: "Who says it's not the case! Think about it, if it weren't for the master, how could we have such a good life? The people of the Ming Dynasty don't have a good life either!"

"That's right, the potatoes that the master found are not there. Now we have to count and prepare them for dinner!"

The three old men were all sighing when they talked about Fang Xing. When they saw a horse rushing into Zhuangzi, they couldn't help but get angry.

"Who is so bold? How dare you charge at our Fangjiazhuang!"

When the three of them saw that it was a servant, they panicked.

After Fang Xing left, Zhang Shuhui was in charge of the Fang family, and Tudou also helped manage half of the family.

The rules have always been there. If there is no urgent matter, no one can beat the horse and run wildly in Zhuangzi.

"What happened?"

…

"Young Master, my wife was stopped by an official outside the imperial city earlier. The man scolded my wife."

Tudou was reading a book. Hearing this, he dropped the physics book in his hand, stood up suddenly, and asked, "Who is that person?"

Fang Liu said: "It's Zhou Dian from the Ministry of Personnel."

Tudou said with a cold face: "Gather people immediately and follow me!"

Tudou changed his clothes and hurried to the front yard.

Huang Zhong is already waiting.

"Mr. Huang, please tell me about Zhou Dian from the Ministry of Personnel."

Huang Zhong immediately called up the information about this person and said: "He is about to go to the Ministry of Personnel. Jian Yi has been adjusting the personnel of the Ministry of Personnel recently, so he has not arranged anything for him. However, he is a sixth-rank man... and he must be given a real job." Que...eldest son, but he offended our family?"

Tudou said: "He blocked my mother earlier.

Then he also said that my mother is a nepotist, which is ridiculous! "

When Huang Zhong saw that the servant had come with the horse, he said hurriedly: "I'm afraid this matter is related to the recent atmosphere in the palace. Concubine Sun was very obedient and showed weakness. At this time, someone said that the madam and the queen were colluding. That was Xiang Zhuang. The sword dance is meant for Pei Gong, implying that the Queen is looking for foreign help."

Tudou accepted the lesson and said: "Ignore him, but as a son, I can't bear it when my mother is humiliated. I also asked Mr. Huang to take care of the family, so I will go."

Huang Zhong hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, it's just the eldest son, please be careful."

Tudou said: "Yes, Concubine Sun is dormant at the moment. I think Zhou Dian may just want to please her and act like a nepotism, so I just go to him."

"good!"

Huang Zhong was relieved that Tudou's response was flawless. After Tudou left, he asked someone to tell Xiaobai that nothing happened.

Later, the news was also passed to Xie Jin in the academy.

"That's seeking death!"

…

Tudou rarely has such a moment of anger, no, it has never happened before.

So after he rode all the way into the city, those people couldn't help but speculate when they saw his stern expression.

All the way to the outside of the Sixth Department, the sergeant guarding the gate didn't know Tudou. Seeing that he was young, he thought he was a young man from a minister's family and was wandering around here. He shouted: "No prying during the office hours!"

Tudou dismounted and held up his hands: "Student Fang Han, come to find Mr. Zhou Dianzhou!"

"Fang Han?"

The soldier who asked the question was startled, and then the "Hero List" of the capital flashed in his mind. Then he took a look at the servants and confirmed the identity of Tu Dou.

"Young Master, please come in."

The so-called hero list is mostly about the powerful families in the capital, and Tu Dou, as Fang Xing's eldest son, is naturally one of them.

The six ministries are no longer as heavily guarded as before. Tu Dou came all the way to the gate of the Ministry of Personnel, reported his name, and only said that he wanted to see Zhou Dian.

In the Ministry of Personnel, Zhou Dian, who had not yet been assigned a specific position, was talking to someone under the eaves.

As a sixth-rank official, he had a position in the Ministry of Personnel that he could take over, but Zhou Dian did not take it over, and there were many things to do.

So he was in the mood to chat, and there were many people accompanying him.

Zhou Dian was about forty years old, looked quite capable, and spoke clearly and flexibly.

"......Who can enter the palace frequently? Not even the relatives of the Empress Dowager can, but some people are so proud that they enter the palace every now and then to show their courtesy. Tsk tsk! This nepotism... is unbreakable!"

Zhou Dian stopped Zhang Shuhui's carriage outside, and the news of his righteous rebuke had already spread throughout the six ministries.

The people around were all laughing.

Everyone here is smart. Recently, the Sun family has almost disappeared in the palace, which makes people admire it.

But praise is praise, and there is no other official like Zhou Dian who goes to test it.

Fang Xing is gone, but Duke Ying Zhang Fu is still here! If you bully his sister, if Zhang Fu gets angry, no one in the court will dare to say anything even if you break your head.

But Zhou Dian is not wrong!

Although he scolded Zhang Shuhui today, he did not use dirty words, and it was quite obscure.

Over the years, it's not that no one in the court has scolded Fang Xing, but Fang Xing has not retaliated against anyone.

Zhou Dian said reservedly: "You should read more history books, and only after reading more will you know how harmful it is to have outsiders in the palace..."

This is too much!

The people around him immediately shifted their sights, and some even began to move their feet and distance themselves.

Zhou Dian was annoyed and felt that he had gone too far, so he smiled and said: "It's just a rainy day, we serve the country..."

Seeing him change the subject, the atmosphere became more relaxed, and some people talked about recent interesting things, and gradually became lively.

At this time, a clerk came in with a pile of books. He leaned back and said breathlessly: "Sir Zhou, someone is looking for you outside."

Zhou Dian was trying to figure out the subsequent developments, and he asked: "Who?"

The clerk had difficulty holding the books, and he was a little depressed when he saw that no one came to help, but those were all superiors, so he had to hold his breath and said: "I don't know, I didn't ask."

He had difficulty walking in this state, how could he ask?

Zhou Dian's eyes flashed with disgust, and then he smiled to his left and right: "I'll be back soon."
