Chapter 157 I can feel at ease when you say that!

Lingyun Pavilion, a name sounds like a place full of pride and ambition.

However, when Chu Ze really stepped here, he realized that he had taken it for granted after all.

In the entire three-storey attic, red or pink tulle will be hung by every window.

After the sunlight shines through the tulle in the attic, the whole attic is filled with a warm tone that makes people feel relaxed.

The crisp bell sound is accompanied by the melodious guzheng.

From the inside to the outside, two words are highlighted, extravagant!

"My nephew is here! I thought my nephew was too busy today and I didn't have time for that!"

Under the leadership of the attendants in the pavilion, Chu Ze and his party went straight to a private room on the third floor.

But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Hu Weiyong in a fine attire sitting in the private room with a smile on his face.

"Uncle Hu was joking, I'm just a small Ninth Grade master book, what can I do!"

"The little official from Sesame Mung Bean is just an inconspicuous little character."

"Uncle Hu is really in a good mood today. I have never been to this place before!"

After Chu Ze saw Hu Weiyong, he smiled and greeted Hu Weiyong directly.

As he stepped into the private room, the egret and the spring equinox followed behind him also walked in.

Hu Weiyong subconsciously frowned when he saw that Chu Ze was still bringing two maids with him.

It seems that the things discussed today are not suitable for the presence of 'outsiders'.

"My nephew never forgot to bring two beautiful beauties with him when he went out. It seems that my nephew is also a man of temperament!"

"However, nephew, you also know that the topic of this man's conversation is bound to be a bit vulgar. You have two beauties with you, so you are not afraid of being rude?"

Although Hu Weiyong's words seemed to be a joke.

But in fact, they are chasing people away.

And since Chu Ze brought Bai Lu and Chun Equinox here today, there was no way to let them go.

This is my amulet!

"Uncle Hu is too worried."

While Chu Ze was speaking, he pulled Chun Feng who was standing beside him into his arms.

And taking advantage of the opportunity, he took Bailu's hand and played with it carefully.

"Although these two girls and I are not one, we are in the same heart! We know ourselves deeply, why are we so abrupt?"

After seeing Chu Ze's actions, Hu Weiyong frowned slightly.

Like him, Chu Ze also spoke secretly.

It's just that Chu Ze can trust these two women, but he, Hu Weiyong, can't be sure.

After Chu Ze saw Hu Weiyong frowned slightly, he added another sentence.

"In this world, it is inevitable to be romantic. But, if you don't have one or two confidante who can entrust your life in the hands of each other, what's the point of a man's life?"

Hu Weiyong, who was still frowning slightly, smiled slightly after hearing Chu Ze's words.

The brows gradually stretched.

Chu Ze was able to bring these two women here, which showed that he could indeed trust them.

After all, Chu Ze accepted Hu Weiyong's money as a bribe.

This is a terrible thing, and if Chu Ze can let these two women join in this kind of thing.

That does mean that the other party should have no problems.

Otherwise, how could such a smooth person as Chu Ze entrust his life to the hands of untrustworthy people?

"Since my virtuous nephew has said so, then I, as an uncle, don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, it would appear that I am stingy as an uncle."

"However, the two confidante friends who are good nephews, for the first time meeting, I, as an uncle, have to give some greetings! Otherwise, wouldn't it be a loss of face?"

"Come on someone."

While Hu Weiyong was speaking, two servants came up with two wooden boxes respectfully.

Then, it was placed on the table in front of Chu Ze very carefully.

"It's a little gift, and I hope you don't want to dislike it."

After hearing his words, Chu Ze just smiled slightly.

But Bai Lu and Chun Equinox were a little at a loss at this time. They were just eyeliners arranged by Chu Ze's side, and they were also servants who took care of Chu Ze's daily life.
Even when necessary, she is Chu Ze's housemaid.

With such an identity, when will it be their turn for someone to give them gifts!

Looking at the exquisite wooden box in front of them, Bai Lu and Chun Equinox looked at Chu Ze in confusion for a while.

"Thank you, Uncle Hu?"

"Thank you Uncle Hu,"

"Thank you, Uncle Hu!"

Although the two daughters said they hadn't seen much of the world and didn't know what to do at this time, since Chu Ze had spoken, they just followed the trend.

After letting go of the two girls and letting them salute Hu Weiyong, Chu Ze reached out and patted their backs, and asked him to stand behind him.

"Uncle Hu... you are giving gifts one after another, your nephew is feeling weird. I feel a little embarrassed when you say this."

Although Chu Ze said he was embarrassed, his hands were extremely honest.

While smiling, he reached out and opened one of the wooden boxes in front of him.

This small wooden box is obviously something like a jewelry box.

After the wooden box was opened, Chu Ze took out a flawless jade bracelet from it, played with it casually and admired it for a while.

Without any politeness, he directly grabbed Bai Lu's hand, and brought her up personally.

Hu Weiyong, who was sitting opposite him, watched all this with a smile all the time.

He didn't feel any dissatisfaction with Chu Ze's excitement.

"My nephew, what are you talking about? You and my uncle and nephew hit it off right away, so why should you care about these worldly opinions?"

"However, I heard that my nephew seems to be doing something recently? I heard that my nephew has accepted the order of the crown prince to establish a private school?"

"I don't know if my nephew has a clue about this matter? Is there anything that needs my uncle's help? If so, my nephew is free to ask. I have a bit of face in this court, and I can do it for you when necessary." Something handy!"

After hearing Hu Weiyong's sudden change of tone, Chu Ze's hand, which was wearing the gold bracelet for the spring equinox, paused slightly.

Afterwards, he turned his head and looked at Hu Weiyong who was sitting across from him with slightly narrowed eyes.

After thinking for a while, the smile on his face gradually fell silent.

"To be honest, Uncle Hu, I did accept the task assigned by the crown prince. Originally, according to the crown prince's intention, I was asked to preside over the establishment of a school to teach and educate people for our Ming Dynasty, so as to create a group of useful people in the future!"

"But who knows, my mission has not even started yet, and I was given a black hand."

"The original intention of my school is in the name of the imperial court to recruit and teach the descendants of downcast people in the future. In this way, it can not only gain fame for the imperial court, but also attract talents for the imperial court."

"It's a good thing that should kill two birds with one stone, but because of some unsightly people, they actually get in the way. My school has not been established yet, and it has ruined the reputation of my school."

"No. I only found out about it yesterday."

After Hu Weiyong listened to Chu Ze's words, he couldn't help but nodded.

It's just that he nodded, but he didn't think that Chu Ze was right, but secretly thought that he guessed right.

In Hu Weiyong's view, these words about how to get talents and fame for the court are just one-sided words.

This is just the promotion road that the crown prince prepared for Chu Ze.

And looking at Chu Ze's look of bitterness and hatred at this time, it is probably because of this incident that he was under the black hand, and he is angry.
"Nephew, to tell you the truth, I came here for this matter today... The person who was investigated by the household department is named Zhu Yong. It's a shame to say that this person has a lot of connections with me."

"He is Zhu Liangzu's distant nephew. At the same time, he is ashamed to say that he is also a member of my line.. This incident was completely a misunderstanding."

"Zhu Yong did such a foolish thing because of a momentary obsession. But nephew, you can rest assured that he has absolutely no intention of going against you. This matter is definitely a misunderstanding."

"So what he committed during this trip is somewhat unforgivable, but nephew, can you give Uncle Hu a face, deal with it, and settle this matter."

Zhu Liangzu.
When Chu Ze heard Hu Weiyong mention this name, his brows frowned slightly.

Marquis Yongjia and Zhu Liangzu!
What impressed Chu Ze most about this person was not his great achievements.

It's how he died.

When Zhu Liangzu was guarding Guangdong, he colluded with the local tyrants and caused Zhu Yuanzhang to unjustly kill Daotong, the magistrate of Panyu County. After Zhu Yuanzhang realized this, he directly summoned Zhu Liangzu and his eldest son Zhu Xian to Yingtian Mansion, and flogged him to death in the hall. .

And if Chu Ze remembers correctly, the time seems to be next year.
The way this Marquis of Yongjia died was extremely rare.

Whipped to death.

This is much more exciting than beheading, poisoned alcohol and so on.

At this time, Hu Weiyong suddenly mentioned Zhu Liangzu, no doubt thinking of putting pressure on Chu Ze, but also testing his attitude from the side.

"Nephew. Promotion in official career is naturally the top priority. But the officialdom is like a river and lake, and the people who are officials are like carp crossing the river. There are countless of them."

"Alone, it is difficult to gain a foothold in this dark and turbulent court after all."

"Multiple friends are definitely more beneficial than multiple enemies."

"As for Zhu Yong's matter, uncle knows that you have a good relationship with the princes, and now that King Qin is in charge of this matter, uncle doesn't make things difficult for my nephew. You just need to let King Qin take this person to jail."

"Other things, uncle will naturally handle them for you, what do you think?"

After Hu Weiyong noticed that Chu Ze was silent, he thought he was a little moved, so he hurriedly continued to persuade him.

Once the net of interests is caught, many things must be handled with care, no matter how small.

The most urgent task now is to get Zhu Yong out of prison, as long as Hu Weiyong and the others can get in touch with each other.

Whether to silence them or save them, these are all things for later.

"Hey Uncle Hu, it's not that I don't want to help with this matter. If I knew it was just a misunderstanding at the time, I wouldn't have asked King Qin to deal with it with such fanfare."

"But now that King Qin has intervened, if I want to let him go at this time, it will be easier said than done!"

"As the saying goes, it's easier to invite God than to send God away. How can this be possible with my empty words!"

After Chu Ze heard Hu Weiyong's words, he also knew that the main event was coming.

money!

Another large amount of money can be credited.

When Hu Weiyong heard Chu Ze's words that he almost asked for money, he was also slightly relieved.

At the same time, he despised Chu Ze more and more in his heart.

Originally, he thought that Chu Ze had some skills and integrity.

Who would have thought that he was actually a profit-seeking and insatiable person.

But that's good too, it saves him trouble.

As long as it is a problem that money can solve, then in Hu Weiyong's view, it is not a problem.

"Nephew naturally doesn't need to worry about this matter. You have been implicated for no reason in this matter. After that, I will send two generous gifts. Just send it to Nephew's other courtyard."

"Afterwards, please trouble your nephew to work hard, and hurry up to take care of King Qin's side, so how about making it easier for His Highness King Qin?"

"Hey, Uncle Hu, I can only do my best. After all, the opponent is King Qin, and I don't have much confidence."

"Hey, my nephew can help with this. Uncle Hu, I am already very happy and gratified. It is said that it is up to man to make things happen, and God to make things happen! My nephew does not need to be under pressure. If it can't be done, Uncle Hu will not blame you .After all, there are excusable circumstances!"

"Okay, with Uncle Hu's words, I'm relieved! Uncle Hu, but I don't think it's too late. If it doesn't work, I'll get up and go for a walk. It's been a long time, and I'm afraid something will change!"

"Okay, good, good nephew, don't worry, I'll send the things to your other courtyard, and my nephew will just let people pick them up!"

"Thank you Uncle Hu, my nephew will leave first!"

"Okay, okay, walk slowly, and uncle won't see you off. It's inconvenient."

"It doesn't matter."

After the desired result had been achieved, Chu Ze naturally didn't want to continue to push him.

Especially when he heard that Hu Weiyong himself said that it doesn't matter if he can't finish what he explained, Chu Ze was naturally even more happy.

Now, he can collect money and do nothing with peace of mind.

But before Chu Ze left, he still didn't forget to tell Bai Lu and Chun Equinox, and took away the meeting gifts from others on the table.

These are all money!
Someone foolishly kept sending money, Chu Ze was naturally happy.

When Chu Ze left Lingyun Pavilion with his two daughters and got back into the carriage.

Looking at the wooden boxes held in each other's hands, and the bracelet that Chu Ze personally put on for them.

The eyes of the second daughter were full of confusion and bewilderment.

Are they taking bribes?
"master"

Chun Equinox was the first to react, and she hastily passed the wooden box in her hand to Chu Ze.

At the same time, he did not forget to take off the gold bracelet on his hand.

These things are not something they can contaminate.

The egret also reacted later, and cautiously wanted to take off the bracelet on his hand.

Although they also like these precious jewelry.

"Since I brought it for you, you can keep it for yourself."

"Think of it as me bribing you. In the future, if you can not report things like who I hug when I sleep, then don't report it."

"Other jewelry, take it back and divide it among yourself. I'm not short of that."
