After Zhang Yanghao left, no one came to harass him. The first night of the deposed emperor finally passed safely. Han Ruzi was lying on the cold and hard bed, tossing and turning, and his mind always came to his mind when he saw Cui Xiaojun for the first time: his thin face With a few strands of wet hair, his big eyes were both panic and calm.

No matter whose daughter she is, she is her own wife and must be brought by her side. Han Ruzi made up her mind again.

Yang Feng said that he had come up with an idea, but he refused to disclose it at the time, but let Hou Juan wait patiently.

It was very cold at night, and there was not even a pot of charcoal in Hou's mansion. Han Ruzi couldn't sleep, so he simply sat up, wrapped himself in the quilt and looked at the study. His eyes slowly adapted to the night. Based on his impressions during the day, he could roughly see the furnishings in the room. .

The bookshelf should be filled with books first, and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone should be placed on the table. There is no need to keep the smoker in the corner. You should add another weapon rack and put a few swords... Will Meng E teach her inner skills again? After taking back Cui Xiaojun, how will the Cui family react? There is also the East Sea King, if he really succeeds to the throne, even if it is just a puppet, it is also a great threat to himself...

When Han Ruzi woke up, it was already bright, and he was lying on the bed wrapped in a quilt, his body curled up in a ball.

Zhang Youcai knocked on the door and came in, rubbing his hands while breathing, "It's so cold, I'm not hungry anymore, no, I'm even more hungry, but I can't feel it, and my stomach is frozen. The owner also hasn't eaten for a day, so I'm very hungry. Bar?"

Han Ruzi stood up and stomped, "Like you, I don't feel hungry."

"You should find a fat maid to warm the quilt for the master..."

Han Ruzi shook his head again and again. Last night, he expelled all the servants. This study belongs to him alone, and he does not want outsiders to set foot in at will.

Cai Xinghai shouted from outside the house, "It's time for dinner, it's time for dinner, everyone, come out, fresh, hot food!"

"Even Big Brother Cai doesn't follow the rules, do you think we are beggars?" Zhang Youcai ran to the door, "I'll bring it to the master."

As soon as the door was opened, Cai Xinghai had already brought it. Zhang Youcai took it in his hand, stopped after a glance, and said in surprise, "Hey, why is it just rice porridge and pickles? This, this is from the street, right? ."

"I bought it with money. There are no shops in Baiwang Alley. I bought it after traveling a long way. Please take care of the meal first. Mr. Yang has already sent someone to buy rice, noodles, oil and firewood."

"That's too simple." Zhang Youcai looked at the hot rice, his throat squirmed, and he kept swallowing.

"Bring it here, I'm already hungry." Han Ruzi shouted.

Zhang Youcai put the tray on the desk, still staring at the rice porridge.

"Let's go out to dinner, you're making me uncomfortable here." Han Ruzi smiled, thinking that he didn't have to meet the queen mother or sit all day long, his heart beat happily.

The rice porridge is sweet and the pickles are crunchy and salty. It is the perfect match. After Han Ruzi tasted it, he couldn't stop. He quickly finished a bowl and praised Cai Xinghai who was standing at the door: "I can't think of such delicious food outside the palace, it's rare. The only thing is that the method is simple, just broken rice and radish."

Cai Xinghai smiled and said, "Tiny Hou is really hungry, and after eating it, it doesn't feel good."

Yang Feng walked in and said to Han Ruzi, "Have you eaten yet? Let's go."

"Where to?" Han Ruzi stood up, thinking that Yang Feng was going to pick up Cui Xiaojun.

Yang Feng glanced at the humble study, "No matter what, you are also a marquis, go and bring everything that the marquis should have."

"What should the Hou Mansion have?" Han Ruzi knew nothing about it.

"Come with me." Yang Feng turned around and Han Ruzi followed.

After all, Cai Xinghai already has a position, so it is not appropriate to go out with Hou Juan. The young eunuch Zhang Youcai ate three bowls of porridge in the wing room. Seeing Hou Hou and Yang Feng were leaving, he put down the bowl and chased out of the room, "Wait for me!"

Another little eunuch came out from the opposite room, frowned, and kept pulling on his clothes, as if very unhappy, but also followed behind Hou Juan.

"Who are you?" Zhang Youcai asked in surprise.

"My name is Du Chuanyun. People in Jianghu are called Feilongxia. What's your name?"

"My name is Zhang Youcai, oh, you're the kid from last night, you're from Jianghu, why... why did you come to be a eunuch?"

"Bah, I'm not an eunuch, I'm hiding my identity and protecting your master."

"Then you can't take my position." Zhang Youcai felt threatened, and took a few steps to get closer to the master. "Since it's a hidden identity, why did you tell me your name and nickname? It's just leaking."

"Hey, you guy doesn't know what to do..."

The two teenagers quarreled as they walked, and when they reached the gate, Yang Feng shouted, "Shut up from now on, you can't speak until you return to the manor, understand?"

"I won't speak if he doesn't speak." Zhang Youcai said.

"Just don't be provocative." Du Chuanyun was even more unconvinced. He was older, but his body was thin and not much different from Zhang Youcai.

There were two horses tied outside the door, one was Yang Feng, the other was Hou Juan, and the other two had to follow on foot. Zhang Youcai didn't think there was anything, but Du Chuanyun felt it was unfair. He opened his mouth to speak when he saw Zhang Youcai slipping away. He rolled his eyes and closed his mouth again.

Han Ruzi had only learned riding skills in the palace for a few days, and he could barely control his mount. The road was full of snow, so he did not dare to go too fast.

Yang Feng did not urge him, and drove with him, saying as he walked: "The Marquis of Juan is in charge of the head of the Ministry of Rites, and if you need anything, you can ask them for it; you are Marquis of Juan, you do not have fiefs, but you have a salary in the Ministry of Household and food. Eight thousand households are rented, which is quite a lot, and it can be compared with some minor princes; you are a son of the clan, and you still have an income in the Zongzheng Mansion. Since they refuse to take the initiative to send it, we will ask for it.”

"Can you come?" Han Ruzi had never asked anyone for anything, so he was not very confident.

"We'll find out later. There are also Jingzhao Yin Yamen and Xuncheng Division. There is such a big noise in Baiwang Lane, and they didn't come to check it out. It's really remiss of their duty. Finally, go to the camp and tell Yulin. Wei and Hu Benwei are the same."

"But we have promised Zhang Yanghao..."

"Don't mention his name."

Yang Feng arranged the day's affairs quite full, but Han Ruzi had no idea and thought to himself, since those yamen were unwilling to perform their duties in the first place, I am afraid that they would not find any results if they rushed up. When he was the emperor, he was a puppet. Now Become a deposed emperor, and no one cares.

But he didn't say anything, wanting to see what means Yang Feng would use.

After leaving Baiwang Alley, the streets became lively, the snow on the road was trampled, and people came and went.

Han Ruzi had never seen so many people before. When he ascended the throne, there were quite a few people, but those guards, ministers, and eunuchs were almost like puppets, either standing still or following each step, unlike the people on the street who walked under their feet, Speaking of which, no one has to care about other people.

Han Ruzi likes the atmosphere on the street very much, but he finds it too noisy, which makes his ears accustomed to quietness a little bit unbearable.

Zhang Youcai became excited again, his mouth never closed, his eyes were straight, and Du Chuanyun, who was walking side by side with him, laughed from time to time.

The House of Marquis Tien was in the North City, and the Ministry of Rites was located outside the south gate of the Imperial Palace. After detouring for half an hour, they arrived after more than half an hour.

There are many government offices in this area, all of which are tall and solemn. Looking north, you can see the towering Tai'an Hall across the city wall. There were soldiers guarding the entrance of the yamen, and ordinary people dared not approach. Yang Feng, Zhang Youcai, and Du Chuanyun were all dressed as eunuchs. As soon as they stopped, a doorman came up to ask questions.

Yang Feng did not dismount, and said, "Master Yuan, Minister of Rites, is discussing government affairs in Qinzheng Hall. Who is the master who is staying here?"

The doorman was taken aback, knowing that this eunuch was unusual, "Back to father-in-law, it is Ning Shilang who is sitting in the hall today."

"Call him out, and the lord and sergeant, call out together."

The doorman was startled again, "May I ask who this noble is?"

Han Ruzi was young and did not dress like an official, so the gatekeepers guessed that he was a nobleman.

Yang Feng frowned, "Let your lord come out, they will recognize it."

The door clerk is also considered a person who has seen the world. The more he looks at the horse-riding nobles next to the old eunuch, the more strange it becomes. He is looking at the old eunuch's whip, which makes a crisp sound on top of his head, followed by an angry shout: "Also Hurry up!"

The doorman ran into the yamen holding his head, as if he had been beaten.

Han Ruzi asked in a low voice, "Is it necessary...is that so?"

Yang Feng said: "According to the normal procedure, we won't be able to see the person in charge until at least three days later. Can Hou Wan wait?"

Han Ruzi stuck out his tongue, "I'll see more and talk less."

The soldiers and clerks at the gate of the yamen were all pointing fingers, but Yang Feng didn't care. A man in official uniform walked out and looked around from the door. Yang Feng recognized that this was a low-level petty official and ignored him. , but stood in front of Juan Hou so that the other party could not see it.

The little official looked left and right, and went back with a confused look on his face. After a while, an official in his fifties walked out, and the soldiers and doormen at the door immediately bowed and saluted.

The official's expression was cold, as if someone who was sleeping soundly was woken up abruptly. He was very impatient. He was also standing in the door. Not even handing in the poster?"

Yang Feng ignored him, slapped his horse and took two steps forward, giving way to the Hou Juan who was born behind him.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites in the door finally saw the appearance of the visitor, and no one else recognized it. He could recognize that when the emperor ascended the throne or abdicated, he was present and secretly glanced at it.

But he couldn't believe it, rubbed his eyes, suddenly shouted, turned around and ran, startling everyone at the door, in their impression, adults have never been so rude.

The little official who was left behind didn't understand what was going on, but his attitude became more and more respectful, and he folded his fists and stepped back, "Please wait a moment, wait a while, I'll..."

Xiaoguan turned around and ran into the office.

Han Ruzi couldn't help but asked in a low voice, "Are we just waiting like this?"

Yang Feng snorted coldly, "Marquis Tien is now the number one evil star in the world. No matter where you stand at the door of the department, the officials will be scared to death. Just wait, we will have whatever you want later."

Han Ruzi was both surprised and amused. He didn't expect the Emperor to have such a big influence.

Du Chuanyun, who was standing on the ground, heard the two of them talking, and couldn't help but interject, "Isn't this a rogue? Local thugs use this method."

Yang Feng said coldly: "It's gangsters who blackmail the common people, and heroes who blackmail the royal family."

Han Ruzi was dumbfounded. He was besieged by gangsters and officers and soldiers last night, but now he is using gangsters to blackmail the government.
