The bright full moon hangs high, and the wind blowing on the mid-autumn night has a hint of coolness.

Cheng Qin leaned on the bamboo recliner with brocade mattresses, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and gently patted the armrests with his fingertips.

Cheng Yuanen took off the warm Taidiao from the small red mud furnace and slowly stored wine for the empty cup in front of Cheng Qin:

"...I was worried that he might not be suitable for the official position. In this way, he was a person who wanted to learn and learn to change and follow the opportunity." He put the wine pot back on the mud stove, "You see, if it was Xiyuan, would it be appropriate?"

Cheng Qin said with a smile:

"Marriage between children is what it means to be the destiny of parents."

Cheng Yuanen was slightly stunned and immediately realized that Cheng Qin had retained his attitude towards the matter.

He couldn't figure out whether Cheng Qin had reservations about Wang Qian or the Wang family. He thought about it and said:

"Xiaojiu can be said to be a master of your own education, so of course you have to ask what you mean."

Cheng Qin smiled and said:

"Can you know about this at the beginning?"

This is the second time Cheng Qin has asked this.

Cheng Yuan En pondered for a moment:

"I haven't talked to her yet. I want to wait until Xiyuan's post-school student will be admitted to her." He paused and tentatively said, "... Besides, it hasn't been finalized yet."

Even if you get engaged, it will be a matter after the scientific examination. Any variable may appear in the past year. Why should Cheng Xi worry about it early?

In his personal opinion, Cheng Yuanen still hopes that Cheng Xi can stay at home for a few more years and get married later.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Qin actually followed his words:

"Since that's the case, then let's wait until the post-school student is selected."

Cheng Yuanen didn't expect that Cheng Qin did not agree much.

——But I don’t know why?

If it is said that he is dissatisfied with Wang Qian, but he doesn't look like him; if it is said that he is worried about Wang Qian's interactions with the North, it is a bit far-fetched - he has some indescribable thoughts that he himself has.

Cheng Yuanen was confused, but he didn't show it on his face. He only changed the topic and talked about the affairs in the court with Cheng Yuanen:

"... Yan Boling also submitted a memorial to open the Horse Market. Since the northwest, the emperor's resistance to this is no longer as deep as before. Today, the inner court handed over the memorial to the cabinet department and asked to make a reply."

Cheng Qin was not surprised.

Not to mention that Emperor Showa is not in conflict now, I am afraid he will taste the sweetness.

Fu Cen Xian was already ill and recuperated at home for a long time. The second time, Fu Xia Zhidong mentioned resignation again. The cabinet's political consultation seemed to be Chen Kao as the most respected.

"How does Chen Kao plan to approve it?"

Cheng Yuan Endao:

"There are eight horse markets in Guangning, Kaiyuan, Yizhou, etc., and like Ningxia and Gansu, we also plan to exempt the military pay and compensate the horse market for the income."

Cheng Qin said seriously:

"... There are 200,000 troops stationed in Liaodong."

Cheng Yuanen was silent.

After the Liaodong official army's food and salary are completely charged from the Ma market, the Liaodong's governor will also become a decoration. It is hard to say who will use the 200,000 troops in the future.

Thinking of this, Cheng Qin couldn't help but hum:

“…Mine Tax!”

"Father," Cheng Yuanen suddenly said, "my son discussed with Cheng Qian and planned to submit a memorial to the Chen Mining Tax."

Chengqian is the name of Luo Rukun, the Censor of the Censorate.

Cheng Qin was stunned when he heard this, and then he heard Cheng Yuanen continue:

"Wang Zhen, the student of Chengqian, will let him speak first. Later, Chengqian will arrange another supervisor to impeach the tax supervisor... Didn't Zheng Bao list two items? His son plans to use his title to write some articles at that time."

Cheng Qin listened, suddenly glanced at Cheng Yuanen and asked with a smile:

"Aren't you afraid of offending Zheng Bao?"

There is unconcealed relief in the words.

Cheng Yuanen couldn't help but feel ashamed - he was afraid that his concerns and actions over the years had indeed disappointed his father.

He shook his head:

"... Since the Senate Conference has already been held, some things must be said as generals. Although I don't know what the emperor will react, Zheng Bao will definitely not get it."

Since he had a conversation with Wang Qian that day, he has been reflecting on himself for a long time - he should take up his position and do things.

Cheng Qin pondered for a while:

"Zheng Bao and Chen Kao have always been close to each other... It's good that way."

Since Cheng Yuanen participated in the cabinet discussion, Chen Kao has frequently attracted branches.

In this way, even if Chen Kaoyou did not give up, he would at least have to worry about Zheng Bao's ideas in the future.

More importantly, since the last time he returned to Cheng Yuanpei, Wan Wei had already drawn a clear line with Cheng Yuanen. Now, in the eyes of Emperor Showa, Cheng Yuanen has become an absolute neutral.

As long as Cheng Yuanen's Chen Shu is grasping the right measure and not stepping on Emperor Showa's feet, it will not only make any mistakes, but will also make the suspicious emperor feel at ease.

Cheng Qin closed his eyes and pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked casually:

"What is the emperor's attitude towards King Liang?"

Cheng Yuanen was stunned when he heard this.

This is the second time my father asked about the fifth prince, King Liang... Did his father actually plan to stand on the side of the queen?

He mentioned Emperor Showa's attitude towards King Liang, and finally said tactfully:

"...Father, Jie Mao's personality is afraid... I'm afraid it's not suitable for Princess Shang."

Cheng Qin was stunned, and then he realized that Cheng Yuanen had misunderstood.

He smiled and revealed this:

"Jiemao took He Chu to the Lantern Festival tonight?"

Cheng Yuanen nodded and told Cheng Shi about Wang's interest in Zhang Zhifang's granddaughter.

However, he was a little doubtful in his heart whether Cheng Shi would follow the arrangements honestly.

*

Cheng Xi looked at the bright moon in the sky speechlessly, and never expected that things would turn out like this.

Next to her was a beautiful woman with a beautiful woman in her 28th beauty, gentle and elegant. At this time, she was also looking at the bright moon in the sky like Cheng Xi. The handkerchief in her hand was slightly twisted into a ball, looking a little restrained.

It was Zhang Zhifang's granddaughter, whose boudoir was named Zi Yan.

The two of them were silent awkwardly for a while, but Cheng Xi coughed first and said with a dry smile:

“…The moon is very round tonight.”

Zhang Ziyan was stunned and laughed softly:

“Yes, yes.”

Then the two fell into silence again.

The panes facing the street are wide open. When you sit in the Moon Tower, you can see the crowds of people on the street and the bright lanterns hanging all over the street.

There are sometimes lanterns hanging on the inner city river, and there are long and colorful pleasure boats swimming by. The various stalls and shops by the river are filled with dazzling array of objects and lanterns. The hawkers' gentle hawking and the crowds are hustle and bustle, making them very lively.

There were bursts of laughter and noise from the next room from time to time, and the hall outside the ink and yarn screen was also full of people, and there were poems, lyrics and singing.

In comparison, the private room where Cheng Xi is located is extremely quiet.

She looked at the huge table with only herself and Zhang Ziyan sitting, and couldn't help but cough again, looking at Zhang Ziyan and said:

"Zi Zhen and I play often. If you have the chance to get together in the future, can you come with Zi Zhen?"

Zhang Ziyan said softly when she heard this:

"Okay, I often hear Zizhen talk about Miss Cheng..."

Cheng Xi felt that she was a little shy and spoke softly. She was afraid that Cheng Shi would be more bitter in her throat.

Cheng Xi had no choice but to softly say softly:

"I'm five months younger than Zizhen. It's better if you call me Cheng Xi. Zizhen and Ayao both call me that."

Zhang Ziyan nodded and smiled and was about to speak, when she heard the lazy sound of the journey amid the noise outside the screen.
