Chapter 46 Reason
"I know this. The reason why my father was promoted to Yangzhou magistrate was because He Qian, the Minister of Personnel, and he was a fellow villager with my father."
"Baby, do you say He Qian, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel? Then I seem to know why." Zhang Sheng said
"Ah? Shenglang, do you know why?" Qing'er said
"Yes, He Qian and Yang Xin are both from the Sixth Prince. My father-in-law should be too. The reason why my father-in-law was promoted to Yangzhou was probably the work of the Sixth Prince." Zhang Sheng said
"Ah? Then, is it all the sixth prince?" Qing'er said
"Baby, these two provinces in Jiangnan are the territory of the sixth prince and the eighth prince respectively. Your father should be the person on the line of the sixth prince, and Yangzhou is the territory of the eighth prince. Do you understand now?" Zhang Sheng said
"Shenglang, do you mean that my father is a nail from the Sixth Prince's Sect?" Qing'er said
"That's right, otherwise, how could my father-in-law get the position of Yangzhou magistrate?" Zhang Sheng said
"Then, Shenglang, do you mean that my father's affairs were taken by the Eighth Prince?" Qing'er asked.
"No, that's not. The Sixth Prince's business was taken by the Sixth Prince." Zhang Sheng said
"Ah? But Shenglang, didn't you say that my father is from the Sixth Prince? Then how could he do it?" Qing'er said in confusion.
"Because my father-in-law has been a dead chess since the beginning, and since he became the prefect of Yangzhou, he has become an abandoned son." Zhang Sheng said
"Ah? Why is this happening?" Qing'er said in surprise.
"Baby, because of the last fraud case of the imperial examination, the Eighth Prince suffered the biggest loss, and the Sixth Prince only lost one right-level governor."
"It seems that the loss is quite large, but in fact, it's just a different person. My elder brother's father-in-law was promoted because of this." Zhang Sheng said
"Ah? This, this..." Qing'er said
"Baby, I know you are a little unacceptable for a while, but don't be too sad, otherwise I will feel distressed." Zhang Sheng said gently
"Well, Shenglang, I'm fine. I'm just a little sad. I didn't expect that my father had worked hard and the way he ran out became his death talisman." Qing'er said
"It's a pity that I can't go to Jiangnan. If I can go, I will definitely find a way to avenge you, but you don't have to worry. Then Yang Xin will return to Beijing sooner or later, and it's not too late to deal with him if he has the chance." Zhang Sheng said
"Shenglang, don't take risks for me, it's not worth it." Qing'er said
"Why isn't it worth it? I think it's worth it. Don't worry, I will send Yang Xin below to apologize to my father-in-law if I have the chance." Zhang Sheng said
"Shenglang, you are so nice to me. I don't know how to repay you." Qing'er said movedly.
"Little fool, you are mine, what else do you want to repay?" Zhang Sheng shaved Qing'er's nose with a smile and said.
"Well, Qing'er will always be Shenglang, Shenglang, I have a gift to give to you." Qing'er said
"Oh? What kind of gift is it? Not so? Ah, haha." Zhang Sheng smiled and said with a smile
"Oh, Shenglang, you hate it." Qing'er said embarrassedly.
After saying that, he took down the rope hanging around his neck and handed it to Zhang Shengdao: "Shenglang, this is left to me by my father. He said that this was what he asked for from a Zen master in Lingjue Temple."
"Well? Lingjue Temple? That's a good place. Emperor Taizu personally gave the name to him, but this was left by his father-in-law. I guess it must be very important to you, right?" Zhang Sheng said
"Yes, this is the only thing my father left to me. All other things were searched, and only this one was worthless, so it stayed." Qing'er said
"This, baby, you are too expensive. You should keep it yourself." Zhang Sheng said
"No, Shenglang, just accept it. Didn't you say just now that even I belong to you? Then the same is true for this rosary when you put it in your place." Qing'er said
"Okay, then I will accept it. I can't let you down your wishes." After Zhang Sheng finished speaking, he took the rosary from Qing'er's hand and put it on his hand.
"Baby, are you hungry?" Zhang Sheng said
"Well, Shenglang, you are indeed a little hungry when you say it." Qing'er said
"Haha, then let's get up and eat." Zhang Sheng said
After saying that, the two of them got up, but the process of arising was not worthy of being told by outsiders.
Anyway, after Zhang Sheng got up, it took nearly half an hour before Qing'er's face turned red, not only that.
Seeing Zhang Sheng's smirk, Qing'er rolled her eyes at Zhang Sheng. When Zhang Sheng saw this scene, she felt impulsive again, but was forced to suppress it by him.
When the two of them were having dinner, Zhang Sheng still had to tease love from time to time, and the scene was quite interesting for a while.
However, this loving scene was broken by an uninvited guest. The uninvited guest was his elder brother. Zhang Sheng hurriedly ate a few bites of food and followed his elder brother out of the room.
"I said third brother, you have lived a leisurely life so much? I have begun to envy you." Zhang Ye said
"Come on, don't you think I don't know. Brother, there are only six or seven names in your yard, plus some open rooms, why can't there be more than a dozen or twenty? Do you think you envy me?" Zhang Sheng said
"No, third brother, I'm all vulgar powder, I can't compare with you. To be honest, don't you plan to change your taste?" Zhang Ye said.
"Are you okay? Get out of here if you have nothing to do." Zhang Sheng said angrily without any worries.
"Hey, third brother, why did you change your face? You were so fine just now? I'll just joke with you. What's the matter?" Zhang Ye said helplessly.
"Brother, come, don't come, I don't know you yet? You have never joked about anything related to women." Zhang Sheng said
"Hehe, forget it, third brother, you are really boring. I came to you this time because of the second brother." Zhang Ye said
"Hmm? What's going on with the second brother? The sun is coming out from the west today? Are you going to come to me because of the second brother's affairs?"
"It's not the eldest brother, you can't handle the same mind as me, just the second brother, who is similar to me? Isn't it that you?" Zhang Sheng said
"Third brother, who do you look down on? Just the second brother's brain, can I still ask you for help?" Zhang Ye said
"Brother, then what are you doing when you come?" Zhang Sheng said
"Hey, I'll forget the serious business when I talk to you. I'm here to find you this time because the Queen wants to hold a polo party." Zhang Ye said
"Hmm? Polo will? But what does this have to do with the second brother?" Zhang Sheng said
"It's not because of the unlucky couple's marriage. He had an excuse to delay before. Now that you are even engaged, how can he delay?" Zhang Ye said
"It's not that I said, my second brother should really consider the marriage. I asked me to say that my second brother is also long-lasting enough, and I haven't forgotten that person yet?" Zhang Sheng said
