    As Lu Xiangsheng's words fell, the house immediately became silent. Several brothel girls who were sitting nearby and smiling happily were also frightened by this depressing atmosphere and sat motionless in the distance without daring to say a word.  Although the girls don't know the Yueyang people, they have good eyesight as they were born in a brothel. Tonight, the momentum of these guests is more powerful than the others, especially the young man who came in behind.  Everything he does gives people a sense of oppression, which makes people involuntarily follow his wishes.  Seeing that Yue Yang's face began to change, Yang Tinglin and others on the side were also very uneasy, especially Lu Xiangsheng, who felt a little regretful. He knew very well what his proposal meant to Yue Yang.  After a long time, Yue Yang waved his hand and motioned for all the women in the room who were accompanying him to go out.  After seeing Yue Yang's gesture, these women quickly stood up and trotted out as if they were granted amnesty.  "Lord Lu, do you know what this condition means to me?" "Of course I do." Lu Xiangsheng was not frightened. After all, he was also a rare man with both civil and military talents in the late Ming Dynasty. "But I know Putian better."  Isn¡¯t it the king¡¯s territory? Isn¡¯t Shanxi the territory of the Ming Dynasty? After staying in Shanxi for so many years, is it time to return Shanxi to the imperial court? " Yue Yang asked strangely.  He laughed and said, "Of course, but I have invested so much money in Shanxi over the years. Should the court return this money to me? I can't let this prince not even get back the capital, right?"  "Return the money?" Lu Xiangsheng's brows suddenly frowned, "Master Yue, how much money can you invest in Shanxi?" "However, there are always four to five million taels of silver, how about it? Master Lu, are you planning to pay for it?"  Is the imperial court giving this money to me? ""Four to five million taels!" Everyone was immediately shocked. Such a large amount of money means that it is equivalent to the current fiscal revenue of the Ming Dynasty.  Chongzhen had worked hard to save money over the years and his total net worth was probably only this much. Lu Xiangsheng estimated that if he dared to tell Chongzhen about giving money, Comrade Xiao Zhu would invade him without blinking an eye.  Lu Xiangsheng immediately became angry and reprimanded: "Master Hou, are you going too far? Shanxi belongs to the Ming Dynasty. It is natural to hand it over to the court. You actually use it as a bargaining chip. Do you really want to be a treacherous minister?"  " Faced with Lu Xiangsheng's angry rebuke, Yue Yang did not refute, but stood up silently and walked towards the door.  Seeing that the two parties were about to break up, Yang Tinglin stopped Yue Yang in a hurry and said, "Master Yuehou, why did you leave? It's not too late for us to sit down and talk if you have anything to say!" Yue Yang smiled faintly and said to Lu Xiangsheng:  "Master Lu, if it weren't for the fact that you were my immediate boss before and we fought bloody battles together, I would have made you walk away with nothing but your words just now!" After saying that, he pushed Yang Tinglin away.  , walked out minding his own business, leaving only four middle-aged and elderly men looking at each other with passion.  Not long after Yue Yang left, Hong Chengchou's excited voice sounded in the room: "Lu Jiandou, what on earth do you want to do? Do you have to force him to come to the opposite side of us to be happy? Do you know how much we need him now?"  His help" Striding out of the splendidly decorated mansion, Yue Yang just arrived at the door and saw Chen Dazhi and dozens of soldiers holding horses waiting for him at the door.  Taking the reins from Chen Dazhi, Yue Yang rode back home without saying a word. He was minding his own thoughts along the way, and soon arrived at the Prince Consort's Mansion.  After entering the mansion, he went straight to the inner house in the backyard and saw Zhu Yu'a holding her son, who was less than a month old, breastfeeding.  Seeing her husband coming back, Zhu Yuluo had no intention of shying away. She was nursing her child and asked with a smile: "Ms. sir, didn't the soldiers just come to report you to the banquet? Why are you back so soon?" Yueyang  He snorted softly and said: "I'm too lazy to leave these guys. They all want to get benefits from me. They really think of me as fat and everyone wants to pounce on me and take a bite. Maybe I haven't taught them enough lessons.  I just magnanimously let Hong Chengchou go, but Lu Xiangsheng, a stupid person, wants to take advantage of me. Hehe, is it true that a good person is not worth it? " I have been a couple with Yue Yang for more than a year, and Zhu Aelao treats him very badly.  She also had some understanding of his temper. Seeing the faint expression and a flash of anger on his face, she knew that her husband was really angry. She couldn't help but curiously asked: "Mr., what did Lu Xiangsheng tell you?"  What makes you so angry? " "It's nothing, he wants to persuade me to transfer Hailou from Shanxi, and then the court will send another governor over.? This kind of thing is something that he, a mere minister of the Ministry of War, can handle. He thinks he is the chief minister of the cabinet!  "Yue Yang's words were full of resentment. "You are not the same. Even the Minister of the Ministry of War dared to use two words to describe you. You have a bigger temper than my father.  "Since giving birth to a son for Yue Yang, Zhu Ao'ao's confidence has also increased, and now she dares to roll her eyes at Yue Yang. However, after seeing her man in distress, she thought for a while and suddenly said as if she remembered something: "Yes.  Mr. Xianggong, Mr. Cao came to see you just now, but I told him that you would not come back until very late, so he went back first. He said that he would let you into the palace when you come back. My father has something to do with you.  " "Is your father looking for something to do with me?  "Yue Yang is a little depressed. I just came back from the imperial court. You are so rude when you let me into the palace without even drinking. Seeing the unhappy look on Yue Yang's face, Zhu Aelao also knew that her man was actually a man in his heart.  She was a very lazy person, and she was definitely not happy when her father called her out before she had even had time to rest. But she had no choice but to look at her husband with apologetic eyes to express her apology.  In the end, Yue Yang entered the palace, but this time he did not enter the palace for long. He came back in less than an hour. As soon as he came back, he said directly to Zhu A'ao, "Ana, I finally know why Lu Xiangsheng is so courageous.  Oh, it turns out he wants to use me as his springboard!  " "Mr. sir, what's going on?  "Zhu A'ao was confused by Yue Yang's words. Yue Yang looked at Zhu A'a, who was hugging his son and looking at him in confusion, and said with a bitter smile: "It seems that what I said is really what I said, the emperor actually wants Lu Xiang to be promoted to the cabinet!  " It turns out that as soon as Yue Yang entered the palace, Chongzhen told him straight away that because Chen Yan was driven back to his hometown to eat himself, the number of cabinet members now only has three people. Just these three people wanted to help Chongzhen handle the heavy tasks.  Zhou Tingru and the others might not be able to wear themselves out with official duties, so Chongzhen planned to add a few more cabinet bachelors. This time, Chongzhen was not as stingy as before, but wanted to add three people at once, and among these three people  There was one spot for Lu Xiangsheng, and now Yue Yang understood why Lu Xiangsheng was so impatient to find him. He wanted to find a new official to help him take office. ¡°Ms., who are the remaining two people?  "Zhu Ya'ao asked curiously. Yue Yang sighed softly: "One of the two remaining people is Hong Chengchou, and the other is your husband-in-law!"  " "My husband, you can actually join the cabinet. This is a great thing!  "Zhu Yuluo on the side was so excited that her face was flushed. She had grown up in the palace and knew how honorable it was to be a cabinet minister. Since Zhu Yuanzhang abolished the prime minister, in order to relieve himself from the heavy government affairs  After the liberation of China, Zhu Di established a cabinet. As time passed, the power of the cabinet became more and more powerful. By the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the power of the cabinet had become a force that could compete with the imperial power, and one who joined the cabinet was also a powerful force.  The goal that civil servants have been striving for all their lives. Now that Yue Yang was valued by his father and entered the cabinet, regardless of whether there were other factors, it was enough to prove the excellence of his own man. Seeing Zhu Yuyao's excitement, Yue Yang couldn't help but smile:  "What's so exciting about this? Even if your husband-in-law doesn't join the cabinet, he is still a loyal and brave prince in the dynasty. Who dares to look down on us?  " "That's different. Is it the highest achievement for a man to be a general or a general?  "Zhu Ya'ao pouted. "You are really a lovely girl.  "Yue Yang smiled and stretched out his hand to scratch her pouted mouth. "She has already given birth to a baby for my husband, and you still treat her as a child.  "Zhu Ailao clapped his hand dissatisfied, and deliberately straightened her breasts, which had become much plumper because she was a child. Hearing this, Yue Yang looked at her pretty face with a hint of childishness and her bosom.  As a child in middle school, an indescribable strangeness surged in my heart. In later generations, girls like her were in their prime, still in the first year of high school, but now they are mothers who shoulder the responsibility of raising their children. Thinking of this  Yue Yang couldn't help but show a look of guilt, love and pity in his eyes. His expression was naturally seen by Zhu Ailao. Although he didn't know why his husband-in-law showed such an expression, Zhu Ailao still felt a warmth welling up in his heart and smiled sweetly at him.  She stood up and nestled her beautiful head in her husband's arms. Her eyes were full of tenderness. At this moment, nothing could compare with her husband's love. Yue Yang was stroking Zhu Ailao's hair, but she was thinking about today's events. It seemed that Lu Xiangsheng had today.  The proposal was his own, and it did not receive support from Yang Tinglin, Hong Chengchou, Sun Chuanting and others. It seems that his reaction today was a bit excessive, and he should ask clearly. "Hong Chengchou, Hong Chengchou, you came like this today.  Come on, was it because you were afraid that I might disturb your appointment to the cabinet that you apologized to me?  But IAlthough I promised to let you go, it will not be so easy to get my support next!  ¡±r1152?¡­
