Xu Youzhen was lying on the rocking chair, very comfortable.
At this time, Zhao Cong came in from outside in a panic.
Then looking at Xu Youzhen who was concentrating with his eyes closed, his steps became lighter.
He slowly approached Xu Youzhen, and then whispered in his ear: "Censor of Xudu, my subordinates have traveled to many places but have not been found. I think there will be no such thing in the saint's hometown. Otherwise, go Ask your fellow disciple, he has been here for a long time and should know more."
After hearing what Zhao Cong said, Xu Youzhen opened her eyes and chuckled: "Forget it if you don't."
After hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Zhao Cong seemed a little lonely. It seemed that he had no chance to clean up the blame.
Xu Youzhen is in her fifties and can still control her desires in a short period of time, but Zhao Cong is in his early thirties and is full of energy, but it is very uncomfortable.
"Then I won't disturb you anymore," Zhao Cong said in a low voice, and then prepared to leave.
He just turned around, but Xu Youzhen called him again.
"Don't leave yet."
After Zhao Cong heard Xu Youzhen's words, he quickly turned to look at Xu Youzhen, and some hot flames arose in his eyes.
Could it be that the censor of Xudu wants to add more money?
I'm not bragging. As long as five taels of silver turn into ten taels of silver, I can persuade those who sing songs without selling themselves.
Xu Youzhen saw Zhao Cong's scorching eyes and laughed and scolded: "You, just bear it, don't think too much, I stopped you because I want to arrange for you to go down and do something."
After Zhao Cong heard Xu Youzhen's words, he was a little disappointed, but he still knew his responsibilities and quickly adjusted his mentality.
"Censor of Xudu, please give me your instructions."
"Isn't Menda living in a restaurant on Confucius Street? I have given them enough time during this period. You have sent someone to keep an eye on the restaurant these two days to see which official from Shandong has gone there."
Xu Youzhen suspected that Menda also came with a decree on the issue of Yan Shenggong.
Menda has been in Qufu for more than half a month, longer than himself.
Menda and Xu Youzhen were like two different knives, one cutting into the heart and the other hurting the bones.
And when Xu Youzhen was in the throes of her heart, she had to know in advance whether this bone-breaking knife could kill Duke Yansheng...
The judging point is what officials Menda met.
After hearing this, Zhao Cong hurriedly said: "My subordinates don't know these officials. Even if they go to the same disciples, my subordinates won't recognize them."
"You are stupid. When these officials arrive in Qufu, the first one they meet is me. But if they receive some secret order, they may go to see Menda first, and then he will also come to see me. Yes, as long as the people under you can handle things carefully, how can you not know which official it is?"
Zhao Cong understood it as soon as he heard it.
At the moment, he just nodded and said, "Are you still watching at night?"
"Go now." Xu Youzhen said softly.
"Censor of Xudu, that restaurant has been reserved by the generals. There is no one on the street now. If my brother passes by, it will tell the generals that you are keeping an eye on him."
Xu Youzhen raised her head and looked at Zhao Cong, who looked confused.
"I just want to let him know that I'm watching him, so go ahead and do it."
"yes."
After Zhao Cong left, Xu Youzhen looked at the starry sky and murmured to herself: "If Duke Yan Sheng takes a turtle from my hand, then there will never be a chance for the relationship between me and Li Xian to ease."
Duke Yan is Li Xian's son-in-law. Although this son-in-law doesn't like his father-in-law who can act according to the circumstances, Li Xian's daughter is the official wife of Duke Yan. Not surprisingly, the next Duke Yan will be Li Xian. His grandson, but if Menda's attack went too far, then Yanshenggong would be implicated, and his grandson would be destined to miss out on Yanshenggong.
This breaks Li Xian's plan and affects his most fundamental interests...
The current Duke Yansheng is Kong Hongxu, the 60th generation.
At this time, Kong Hongxu was also sitting in his study, unable to sleep at night.
He was just in his early twenties, the age when he hated evil as much as he hated evil and was naive and angry.
He was tall and handsome, and his thousand-year-old family background made Kong Hongxu's face full of aristocratic aura.
But at this time, Kong Hongxu's handsome face was full of chill.
He was underestimated.
Being slighted.
In real history, this Kong Hongxu was manipulated by Emperor Chenghua and his title of Yansheng was abolished.
The reason used was that he had gone too far, built a large-scale palace privately, and harmed his private ethics. Later, there were Shandong Academic Affairs, Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, inspection censors, and many local officials, dozens of famous officials reported the crime, and called them He was not worthy of paying homage to the saint Kong, and the emperor later issued an order to seize the title and depose him as a commoner, and ordered his younger brother Kong Hongtai to attack Yan Shenggong.
Of course, the real reason why Kong Hongxu was deposed may not be that simple. It did not involve core interests. How could the emperor arrange such a big battle to attack Yan Shenggong, who represented Shilin...
Kong Hongxu was granted the title of Duke of Yansheng in the sixth year of Chenghua, and inherited the title of Duke of Yansheng at the age of twelve. In the 12th year of Chenghua, he married Li Xian's youngest daughter. Now he is in his early twenties, which is the time when he is in high spirits.
The only reason why he didn't see Xu Youzhen was because of his passion. He didn't have any demands at all, he just vented his anger.
In his opinion, if Xu Youzhen doesn't respect his ancestors, he doesn't respect himself. Since he doesn't respect himself, why would he lick his face to ask to see him.
But Kong Hongxu was still a little naive.
Originally, I relied on my status in the Ming Dynasty and among scholars. Whether I saw Xu Youzhen or not was based on my own temporary preferences.
But the next few days.
He received letters from local officials.
Not to mention the academic and political affairs, letters from the powerful governors, the three division chiefs, the inspectors, and the commanding envoys all came over.
These people were very polite to me before.
But now their letters to themselves are written in a domineering tone.
As if telling himself that there is still a certain gap between his Yanshenggong and officials like them.
This made Kong Hongxu very angry.
You govern the country with the thoughts and concepts of my ancestors.
If it were not for our ancestor Kong Shengren, you would not have the sun now, and you would be just like the barbarians outside the Great Wall, just like the barbarians outside the Great Wall.
Now he dares to threaten the descendants of the saint.
Is the law of heaven still there?
If you don't want to see him, then you won't see him, and it won't be easy for anyone to say anything...
Kong Hongxu stacked the letters on the table one by one, and then shouted outside: "Here comes someone."
A maid came in.
"Burn all these disgusting letters."
After hearing this, the maid hurriedly stepped forward and took a stack of letters handed over by Kong Hongxu: "Yes, sir."
As soon as the maid walked out of the room, a dignified woman walked towards her.
She looked at the letter in the maid's hand and asked softly: "What is this?"
"Madam, I don't know what this is, but my father-in-law asked me to take it and burn it."
The woman walking towards him was Li Xian's youngest daughter Li Xi. Although she was not Li Xian's legitimate daughter, she was still raised in the name of his first wife. Because she was the youngest daughter, she was deeply loved by Li Xian, and Duke Yan Sheng To make this marriage happen, Li Xian had to waste all his efforts.
Li Xi took the letter from the maid's hand, glanced at it briefly, and then said to the maid: "You go down first, I will talk to the father-in-law, this thing cannot be burned."
"Yes, ma'am."
