Great Blue Night Watchman

Chapter 252 Xishan Villa

Lin Su's seven days have been very leisurely, and he is still taking a rest.

Outside the capital, the refugees suddenly found a job, and it was an incomparably good job. The refugees disappeared, built houses and built nests in the wilderness beside the river embankment, settled down, and lived a decent life with a family and a room. day.

The refugees are living a serious life, are they still refugees?

Even if one million refugees can only provide employment for 100,000 people, the transformation will be almost complete.

As soon as this move came out, the entire Ministry of Civil Affairs was shocked.

What shocked them even more was that all industries in the capital were booming. Why? Millions of refugees now have money on hand to buy things. The sales of various daily necessities are booming. All kinds of oily meat are needed to make soap. Pig offal and pig intestines that no one usually wants have become in short supply. In between, there are countless commodity transactions.

Zhang Haoran took office as the Ministry of Civil Affairs and accomplished such a major event as soon as possible. He should be heavily rewarded. The Ministry of Civil Affairs reported it to the court and Zhang Haoran's official position was promoted by two levels, from the eighth grade to the seventh grade. Facts have proved that as long as the Lin brothers are not involved, the officialdom is still normal. Those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have made mistakes will be punished...

Comrade Xiao Zhang was so happy that he went to drink with Lin Su and said that others were just bragging and flattering to get promoted. Look at me, brother, I got promoted based on my hard work!

After boasting and sighing, in fact, the credit should go to you, but I also know that there is no need to talk about matters related to your promotion right now. No matter how great your contribution is, it means constantly giving you holidays and letting you rest. Stop fussing... Forget it, you should just stay here and wait until brother, I become a high official, and I will have a great time raising you to three levels in a row...

Lin Su's eyes widened, I am currently at the fifth level, and you are only at the seventh level if you upgrade two levels in a row. You, a seventh-level humble official, are so arrogant in front of a fifth-level official. Do you know any official etiquette?

Zhang Haoran also stared, "I am Yiyu's brother, please stop showing off in front of me!"

Oh, that’s right! Forget it...

Zhang Haoran added, brother, I have been promoted today. It is the custom in the officialdom to congratulate colleagues. Let’s forget about those old bureaucrats. We might as well call a few new ones. I have made an appointment with Huo Qi, Li Yangxin, and Qiu Mochi. In the evening Go to an amazing place. You have to go.

Where to go?

Xishan Villa!

Lin Su was slightly startled, Xishan Villa? Princess Yufeng’s palace in Xishan? By the way, is it your intention to treat guests to dinner tonight, or is it the intention of Her Royal Highness?

Zhang Haoran smiled softly, vaguely... Of course she meant it!

Qifeng Villa and Green Willow Villa have good cooperation and a promising future. They originally needed to celebrate, so let's do the two things together.

In addition, the three talented women will come...

Zhang Haoran's meaningful words earned Lin Su a big eye roll: "Where is your sister? Will she go..." Zhang Yiyu's little girl's skin has changed a bit, and now she starts to mind his own business. She doesn't like meeting the three talented women. Yes, I have warned him several times...

"My sister has just returned to Bishui Sect. I heard that the sect competition is about to begin to compete for candidates for next year's Yaochi Association." The sect competition is a fact, but Yiyu's return to the mountain is not just a sect competition; One reason was to eliminate the possibility that the Bishui Sect would take action against him. She did not mention this reason. What she told her brother was the previous reason: the sect competition.

Next year’s Yao Chi Party!

Lin Su was slightly moved. Top disciples like Zhang Yiyu were competing for the Yaochi Association. He held a Yaochi Immortal Order in his hand. At this meeting, the peerless disciples from the seventy-two sects of the entire land would gather. This is the best opportunity to fully understand the Immortal Sect. Should you go and take a look?

This thought flashed through her mind, and Lin Su nodded and agreed.

When he entered the capital this time, he met Bi Xuanji, he only met half of Lu Youwei (Lu Youwei was dying and unconscious when they met), he never met Huo Qi, Li Yangxin, Qiu Mochi, and none of them. It’s time to meet.

Anyway, everyone in the world knew about his relationship with Zhang Haoran. When Zhang Haoran got promoted, no one could say he was wrong when he came to congratulate him.

In theory, no one else can be implicated.

In the afternoon, Lin Su and Zhang Haoran left the inn and headed to Xishan. Although it was a dinner party, how could literati eat just for the sake of eating? Going early to enjoy the wonderful scenery of the Western Mountains and the peerless beauties is the style of a young scholar, isn't it?

Those who go to eat at certain points are called rice pails.

Before you know it, summer is almost over. Only during the noon period does the summer show its charm again. What kind of charm? The girl's clothes are very short and full of room for imagination...

Someone came in front, a man in white, and behind him were a group of people, all dressed in luxurious clothes, walking straight towards Lin Su.

Zhang Haoran's eyes froze slightly, and a voice came to Lin Su's ears: Li Xiang, the head of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, is not a simple role.

Yes, it was Li Xiang who came.

Li Xiang smiled from all the way. When he was only a foot away from Lin Su, he stopped and bowed deeply: "Third Young Master!"

Lin Su looked at him calmly, as if he didn't recognize him.

"Third Young Master, do you still remember Li?"

"Sorry, forgot!"

Li Xiang was slightly startled, but as a business man, he reacted very quickly. He introduced himself: "I am Li Xiang of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce. I was fortunate enough to invite the Third Young Master to visit me a few days ago. The Third Young Master does not mind that I am a businessman." I am of humble origin, but I gladly attend the appointment. I am deeply honored..."

"Oh, I remember! That time Zhao Xun plotted against Zhang Wenyuan, you were the one who set the stage." Lin Su said calmly: "Today Li Hui came here, who else did he want to plot against?"

...The whole place is quiet!

Li Xiang's face was full of tangles, and the group of people behind him were all tangled...

Zhao Xun plotted against Zhang Wenyuan? Are you really afraid of making Zhao and Zhang angry to death? Who in the entire capital doesn't know that what happened was that Zhao Xun got into your crotch?

The beauty of this matter is that everyone knows that the fifth son of the Zhang family was actually killed by Lin Su, but no one can accuse him with any reason. Even His Majesty the Emperor can only punish Zhao Xun. To this day, the knot between the Zhang and Zhao families has not been resolved...

Li Xiang laughed and said, "Third Young Master is joking. Li came here today to sincerely invite Third Young Master to drink..."

Lin Su shook his head directly: "Li Huishou, I really don't dare to drink your wine! Last time, because of your banquet, Mr. Zhang Wu died tragically, which made me feel lingering fear... The water in the court is deep, I don't dare, I say goodbye. Farewell!"

He greeted Li Xiang politely and passed by Li Xiang.

Li Xiang's face was confused. They were far away, and Li Xiang's face slowly turned livid...

This bastard bastard, if you don't fall for the trap, you won't fall for it. What do you mean by saying this? Why do I listen, it seems that I, Li Xiang, specialize in stirring up trouble in the court?

The conscience of heaven and earth, the troublemaker in the court, who else but you?

I? What kind of dish am I? I...

He was crying there without tears.

Zhang Haoran was also a little bit tearful. I said, why do you, the kid, attract so much hatred? The matter of Zhao Xun's killing of Zhang Wenyuan's fifth son has been settled. Why do you still have to bring it out to provoke the two adults? You still think they don’t hate you enough, right?

Not really! Lin Su said: "I think the Zhang family is a bit too quiet. Why haven't I seen anything happen to him since I entered the capital?"

"You really want him to launch a big move against you?"

"Yeah, have you ever heard of a saying? Opportunities...are created in movement."

Dealing with Zhang Wenyuan has always been his goal, but dealing with someone of the level of Minister of War is not that easy. If Zhang Wenyuan doesn't move, he won't have the slightest chance. As long as he moves, there will be opportunities. But Zhang Wenyuan seems to have learned well. Ever since Lin Su won the top prize, he had not made any move at all. Could it be that the Minister of the Ministry of War also understands the current affairs and knows that Lin Su cannot be suppressed, so he just lies down?

"Zhang Wenyuan is also very subtle at the moment..." Zhang Haoran replied: "He probably doesn't dare to cause trouble."

What's the meaning?

Zhang Haoran conveyed a key message to him...

Zhang Wenyuan's eldest son, Zhang Chun, was promoted to the post of magistrate of Xizhou, from the third-rank minister of the Ministry of Rites to the second-rank magistrate of the state. He was promoted two levels in a row. The courtiers also criticized him. Zhang Wenyuan was very low-key in front of him and did not dare to rise up when his eldest son was not yet stable. What happened.

Zhang Chun got promoted?

Lin Sudao: "When did it happen?"

"On the third day after the Jinshi Banquet." Zhang Haoran lowered his voice: "Someone said that this is His Majesty's compensation for Zhang Hong being deposed."

Lin Su's eyes suddenly lit up...

Zhang Hong was deposed at the hands of the Confucian Temple watchmen!

The watchman's dismissal of Zhang Hong was like a slap in the face to His Majesty - His Majesty had just appointed Zhang Hong as a Jinshi, and the watchman's back kick was to destroy him.

If the watchman takes action, no one can retaliate against the watchman, but they can compensate the victim...

His Majesty will promote Zhang Chun to two levels in ten days!

This is a bit fun!

Is His Majesty expressing his protest tactfully?

Or simply comfort Zhang Wenyuan?

Suddenly, Lin Su's heart moved, and a past incident came to mind...

When he came to the capital this time, Supervisor Zhu Shiyun immediately gave him a task: to leave the mansion in Xizhou, hundreds of squires informed the mansion, go and find out the relevant matters...

This sounds normal at first, but now that I think about it, it’s really funny...

Isn't Xizhou the place where Zhang Chun works?

How? As soon as Zhang Chun took office, a squire informed the government? The Supervision Department sent itself to conduct inspections where Zhang Chun worked?

Could it be that Zhang Wenyuan had actually taken action, but he, being such a mad man, didn't realize it at all?

Um! Well!

Let me go to Zhang Chun's territory to handle the case...

In your opinion, it is inviting the king into the urn, but how could you know that it is not inviting the wolf into the house?

His mind was racing, but his face was very calm, and he followed Zhang Haoran towards Xishan...

No one noticed that in the grass behind them, a vague figure suddenly solidified, returned to Li Xiang, and reported to Li Xiang.

Li Xiang got up and went to the third prince's palace, Prince Ping.

Yes, the person who asked him to invite Lin Su was the Marquis of Dingzhou Deng Nan, and the Marquis of Dingzhou was at the Third Prince's Mansion at the moment.

There was another person in the third prince's house, a young man with an arrogant expression. Everyone else was standing, but he was the only one who sat face to face with the third prince without losing the slightest bit.

There are only two kinds of people who can sit face to face with a prince of a dynasty, the courtiers and the disciples of the Holy Family.

This person is Li Xu, a direct descendant of the Daosheng family.

Xu, the rising sun in the east, he is worthy of this name. Wherever he goes, there is a red sun, and everyone surrounds him, including the prince!

"Report to His Highness Prince Ping!" Li Xiang knelt down and said, "This boy refused to attend the banquet."

reject? The third prince's face froze: "You didn't tell me your name as Marquis of Dingzhou?"

Marquis of Dingzhou? The Marquis of Dingzhou is totally useless in this kid's eyes, right? Li Xiang thought so in his heart, but he could only say something else. This guy is very smart. He knew what we were talking about with him, so he refused directly without leaving any words, even if he reported to the Marquis. A famous name will not help, unless the name of His Highness is reported, but His Highness's name is not suitable to be made public at this time...

The Third Prince: "What a shameless person. Where is he?"

"He went to Xishan with Zhang Haoran! Tonight, Her Royal Highness Princess Yufeng is hosting a banquet at the Xishan Villa..."

The third prince's eyes shone brightly...

Princess Yufeng holds a banquet?

Well!

Now that we have gathered together, let’s get everything done tonight, thoroughly, so as not to have a long night with too many dreams.

Xishan Villa is located on the north side of Xishan Mountain. The terrain is high and the north is vast. The cool breeze blows and chills your bones. It is the best summer resort in summer. When the late emperor was still alive, he would bring the queen here every year. At that time, Princess Yufeng felt like home here. Her father doted on her and gave her this palace.

Now that her father, emperor and mother have passed away, this palace no longer feels like home. Princess Yufeng is sitting in the former pavilion, looking into the distance, as if reminiscing about her childhood.

"Your Highness, Miss Xie Xiaoyan is here."

"Oh, please!" Princess Yufeng woke up from a dream, got up from the pavilion, and came to the living room above the lotus pond. This living room is extremely elegant and covers an extremely large area. Below is a lotus pond. At this time, the lotus flowers outside They have long been extinct, but the lotus flowers in the villa come from the north. They have different varieties and are still as beautiful as fire.

Xie Xiaoyan was dressed in blue and came in accompanied by a girl. She said to Princess Yufeng: "Sister Princess, the lotus flowers in your lotus pond are really extraordinary. Can you please invite Mr. Lin today? Let him write an inscription on your lotus pond." A poem.”

"I'm sorry to invite you, but I don't know if Mr. Lin will appreciate it." The princess smiled slightly.

"Don't worry! He will definitely come if you invite him. As far as Xiaoyan knows, our Mr. Lin may not be able to invite high-ranking officials, but beautiful women can definitely be invited..." Xie Xiaoyan smiled and said: "Where's Xuanji, Youwei? ?They live close by, but they arrived late?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bi Xuanji's voice came from behind: "Look what time it is now? It's just too early! It's not that we are late, but that you came too early! Tell me, why is it so early?"

Xie Xiaoyan sighed deeply: "Asking what love is in this world, it teaches us how to make love between life and death! I miss Mr. Lin day and night. I heard that he might come over, and my heart beats unsatisfactorily. I always want to see him sooner... What? Are you satisfied with this answer?"

Lu Youwei behind you and Her Royal Highness the Princess in front of you all turned red. You, Xie Xiaoyan, are you too direct?

Xie Xiaoyan chuckled: "Are you worried? Youwei, I understand your blushing. Sister Princess, why are you blushing too..."

The princess glared at her fiercely: "Xiao Yan, I'm warning you! Just say whatever you want to say at this time, but don't talk nonsense when outsiders are present."

"I know!" Xie Xiaoyan sat down opposite her: "Sister Princess, I heard that you and Mr. Lin became partners and made a fortune. How about some good tea?"

A maid brought a tray with four cups of tea on it and walked through the corridor...
