Chapter 3 Luo Yangxing

Outside the door, Zhou Jianyu sat on the chair and drank tea slowly, but he was constantly thinking about the words of the young master inside, feeling confused and unable to understand his true intentions.

‘Forget it, I’m already making money and making money to make money from the head of the Ministry of Revenue.’ Zhou Jianyu shook off his doubts.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, you made me wait." Not long after, a middle-aged man strode over. He was waiting for the cloth and had a smile on his face. He looked like a pampered person.

Zhou Jianyu quickly stood up and complimented: "Luo Qianhu laughed, it's all small businesses."

Luo Yangxing strode down on the chair, took a sip of tea, and said straight to the point: "Shopkeeper Zhou, you have seen the yard too. Three thousand taels are definitely not too much, right?"

Manager Zhou sat down and smiled, "Master Luo laughed. I am just an errand runner. What I really want to buy is the noble man behind me."

"Negotiable?" Luo Yangxing was stunned and leaned closer and said, "Can I know?"

Zhou Jianyu smiled slightly and said, "My Lord Luo knows the rules."

Luo Yangxing raised his eyebrows and waved his hand, saying, "Well, I have brought all the gifts. I'll go to the yamen to change my name later."

Zhou Jianyu's smile flashed strangely, and he shook his head calmly and said, "Don't you want to explain it clearly to me?"

"Tell me clearly?" Luo Yangxing frowned and said, "What does the shopkeeper Zhou want me to say?"

Zhou Jianyu said, "Sir, you should know that the noble people behind me are extraordinary. It is easy to find out the origin of this house."

Luo Yangxing's face slowly darkened, and he looked at Zhou Jianyu with a bad expression and said, "Shopkeeper Zhou knows it, and he still calls me over. Could it be that he wants to play with Ben Qianhu!"

Zhou Jianyu was unmoved by his threat and shook his head and said, "My Lord misunderstood. This yard was from the Minister of Personnel back then. He may not have any impression of the emperor. If he suddenly decided to reward that lord, he would not be able to bear the crime of deceiving the emperor at that time."

Luo Yangxing sneered and said, "It seems that Manager Zhou has no sincerity. However, our Luo family has inherited the commander of the Jinyiwei, and his father has worked hard for decades. Could it be that the emperor would make things difficult for this little thing?"

Zhou Jianzong shook his head and said, "Sir, I still don't understand the current situation. You might as well take a look at this first." As he said that, he handed a memorial to Luo Yangxing.

Luo Yangxing frowned and took it over and took it to see it. His face suddenly changed.

This is a memorial to the clerk Zhang Yunru. The general meaning is that Luo Sigong, the current commander of the Jinyiwei, is old and weak, and the Jinyiwei is busy, so he is no longer competent. He suggests that he get rid of his armor and return to his fields to live in his old age. The most important thing is the next sentence, recommending Xu Xianchun to take over as the commander!

There are also Dahong's letters from the Silijian: Issue.

In other words, if the emperor sees it, thinks for a moment and then nods everything will come true!

Luo Yangxing had a little cold sweat on his head, his eyes were flustered, and he looked at Zuozi motionless, his face was even more unpredictable, and he no longer had the arrogant look he had before.

Zhou Jianzong looked at Luo Yangxing's expression and felt a little relieved. In the past, the Jinyiwei was always arrogant and scared by everyone. Now, a thousand households look like them, which is enough to make him drink a few more drinks at night!

But soon he calmed down. The noble man in the box behind him was listening, and paused for a moment, and then said: "Sir, you should know the current situation. From the ministers of various departments to the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet in the court, you will not just say anything. And, sir, you should know more than me who Xu Xianchun is."

"Wei Zhongxian!" Luo Yangxing frowned and was extremely panicked. The Luo family inherited the commander of the Jinyiwei. Not to mention his decline, he said that Wei Zhongxian wanted to completely master the Jinyiwei, and he would have to clean up the power of the Luo family. Then, his son, Luo Sigong, the current commander, would probably be the first to bear the brunt of the Qiangun.

However, Luo Yangxing is not an ordinary person after all, so he quickly calmed down and looked at Zhou Jianyu with a cold look, "Shopkeeper Zhou, who is behind you?"

Zhou Jianzong said: "If you ask too much, you will break the rules. The noble man behind me asked me to tell you something. The Luo family has been hereditary for generations and is loyal. I have worked diligently over the years, and it is not unreasonable to succeed as the commander of the Jinyiwei."

"You let me take over?" Luo Yangxing was startled at first, but then he laughed at himself and said, "Who doesn't know that Wei Zhongxian is the most popular person in front of the emperor now. I'm afraid I won't have a chance to compete with his people, right?"

Zhou Jianzong shook his head again and said with a smile: "Sir, this is wrong. Mr. Luo has been standing firm for three dynasties. It can be seen that the emperor's trust is more important than anyone else's words about Jinyiwei."

Luo Yangxing frowned, and was shocked and suspicious. After a while, hesitated: "My father may not want me to take over."

Zhou Jianzong said: "That's natural. Now the court is unclear. The elders naturally don't want you to fall into it. But the elders must understand that once the Jinyiwei falls into the hands of others... I am the fish for the sword!"

Luo Yangxing's heart was thunderous, and all kinds of thoughts began to turn in his heart. He knew what his father had done in the Jinyiwei over the years and he didn't know, but it would be absolutely impossible to say it was clean. Moreover, what he did now was enough for them to search their house, and it depends on Wei Zhongxian's mood.

After a while, Luo Yangxing gritted his teeth and looked at Zhou Jianzong and said in a deep voice, "If I can convince my father, can the people behind you guarantee that I can take over successfully?"

Seeing that Luo Yangxing finally let go, Zhou Jianzong said calmly: "Sir, you should know that Lord Luo's memorial will be delivered directly to the imperial front. Neither the Ministry of Personnel Cabinet nor the Minister of Literature will know. As long as the old man sends the memorial in overnight, the imperial approval will be issued the next day."

Luo Yangxing looked at the note in his hand and did not doubt Zhou Jianzong's words. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll go back and persuade my father to send the note to the palace overnight." He said that, and got up and walked outside.

"Wait," Zhou Jianyu stood up, took out a silver note from his arms, and said to Luo Yangxing: "This note can be taken away by Lord. The three thousand taels of silver note is also owned by Lord."

Luo Yang looked heavy, but he knew that he had formed an alliance with the people behind Zhou Jianzong. After hesitating, he took it over and said, "Thank you." After that, he left hurriedly.

"It's done well." Zhu Xu pushed the door and walked out, smiling at Zhou Jianyu.

Zhou Jianyu immediately nodded and bowed, as if he had changed his mind, and said, "Thank you, my son for the praise. Everything is arranged by Lord Fu."

Zhu Xu nodded and said, "I'll go to accept those shops the day after tomorrow. It's so easy to operate. Look, this is the blue and white porcelain underglaze that was paid tribute from JX in Suzhou. It's yours."

Zhou Jianyu looked very happy when he heard this. Those shops were making money every day. He immediately bowed and thanked him: "Thank you for the rewards of your son. If you have any instructions in the future, you will be delivered to you on time."

Zhu Xu smiled and followed Luo Yangxing to leave the teahouse.

"Your Highness, are you a little anxious when you do this?"

After getting on the carriage, Cao Wenzhao, who was driving, couldn't help but turn around and whisper.
