Mixed in Datang to be a son-in-law

Zhou Shaofan was about to beat someone when he got angry, and scolded: "You bastard, you can try everything?"

"Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue," Zhou Jinyan hastily admitted his mistake. In order to calm his father's anger, he had no choice but to say, "Father, I still have one thing that I want you to take a look at."

"Could it be eating and drinking again?"

Although Zhou Shaofan was surprised by these things, he didn't take them seriously.

The country of the Tang Dynasty is open, and there are foreign merchants everywhere, from the Western Regions, Persia, and the Caterpillar Kingdom...there are merchants coming and going, and you can often see strange things.

In addition, he is also generally particular about eating and drinking, so it is not too surprising.

"No, it's lying down."

Zhou Jinyan rushed outside and shouted: "Sea Zao, go and bring an excellent type of Happy Chair."

"Okay, Langjun."

Haizao Hou had been outside for a long time, and left quickly after hearing the order.

"Xiaoyao chair?" Zhou Shaofan had heard about it before, but he didn't ask too much, just said: "What's the difference between this and this?"

"It's a big difference." Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "The ones placed here are just ordinary ones, and there are also excellent ones and high-quality ones, but the high-quality ones take time to make, and I don't have the time for it. At present, there is only one in the world. "

Speaking of this, Zhou Jinyan slapped his head: "Your Majesty even asked me to send one to the Queen, but I forgot about it."

"Empress." Zhou Shaofan didn't know what came to mind, and sighed: "Empress Changsun is virtuous and virtuous, but she is also a woman, since she is a woman, she can't get rid of the choice of going to her mother's family, if it is a good thing, why don't you give it to her? "

This old man, Zhou Jinyan was amused, "Father, do you think I really want to give it away? His Majesty asked for it. Even if you don't want to give it away, you have to look at it for His Majesty's sake. If you don't want to give it away, you have to give it away."

"Forget it, let's send it."

Zhou Shaofan said: "I see that you seem to know a lot of things. Now, if you have any skills, show them all to make His Majesty look at you with admiration. In this way, the chances of marrying Princess Changle will be greatly increased. Don't hide it."

Chapter 85

He approached Zhou Jinyan, lowered his voice and said, "Especially Your Majesty, take your good things and coax him more, he has a bunch of good officials in his ears, and he really needs good things to say."

"Your Majesty is holy, do you not like flatterers?"

"What do you know, kid?" Zhou Shaofan stared and said, "Unless you are not human, who doesn't like to listen to good words? It's just that good words have to be skillful, and flattery has to be subtle and comfortable, and I don't think you are doing it on purpose. of."

Zhou Jinyan nodded half-understood, flattery is an advanced skill, it is really difficult to learn.

He understood what his father meant.

It seems that Li Shimin has said this before.

He didn't take it to heart.

"Lang Jun, here's the Happy Chair." Haizao hurried over carrying a Happy Chair.

Zhou Shaofan stared at Haizao twice, frowned and said: "There are indeed fewer servants in the mansion, and there may still be a while at home. How about this, I will take you to Yuefang tomorrow to ask for some people."

"Yuefang?" Zhou Jinyan was stunned for a moment, and asked, "Why does Yuefang need people?"

"It is said that it is Yue Fang, but it is actually an official square." Zhou Shaofan said: "Some criminal officials and their wives are filled in it, trained and trained, and reserved for future use by His Majesty to reward others."

Zhou Jinyan clicked his tongue, how could this look like the embryonic form of an official prostitute.

"This is His Majesty's thing, how can father ask for it?" Zhou Jinyan was a little puzzled.

Zhou Shaofan smiled and said, "Of course His Majesty rewarded me before, and I don't need the left and right, so I put it inside."

After a pause, he continued: "Not many, so I was rewarded ten. It's been a long time, and I don't know if the person in charge inside still remembers it. If he doesn't remember it, it may be difficult to get someone to come back."

Zhou Jinyan didn't think too much, just nodded.

He doesn't want the family members of these criminal officials, but others will.

It is better to be cheap to yourself than to be cheap to others.

"Are there any women?"

Although these women are nice to serve people in the mansion, but when they go out, men are more suitable.

Of the thirty guards in the Zhou Mansion, if some were sent out to watch over the shops, some of them would not be able to turn around.

If there are males, Zhou Jinyan would prefer to have some males with martial arts skills.

As for the women, there will be many princesses who marry in the future, and they are all court ladies. Compared with the women in Yuefang, they are more likely to serve others in the venue.

"You kid is greedy." Zhou Shaofan laughed and said, "It's good to have women. Those men are exiled for their crimes. Who will support them?"

Zhou Jinyan: "..."

"Lang Jun, this happy chair?" Haizao felt that he could not hold on anymore.

"Put it down quickly." Zhou Jinyan hurriedly got up and walked over, whispering: "Put it on the ground when you're tired, you silly girl?"

"I dare not." Seaweed said weakly.

Zhou Jinyan shook his head, lifted the reclining chair up the steps, and placed it in front of Zhou Shaofan, "Father, lie down and have a look."

Zhou Shaofan stared at it and said, "This chair looks unusual."

Then he sat down.

"Yes, Not Bad."

Zhou Shaofan only felt very comfortable, but he didn't know where he was comfortable. It was a wonderful kind of inner comfort.He suspected it was a psychological effect.

Zhou Jinyan said as if offering a treasure: "I will give this Happy Chair to my father..."

Zhou Shaofan interrupted him, "I'll take this chair. When you're tired, it's not bad to lie down and relax."

After finishing speaking, he squinted his eyes and smiled: "But what treasures are there, take them out and have a look?"

Zhou Jinyan spread his hands, "It's gone. I'll give you everything I can see."

Lying on the leisure chair, unwilling to get up, Zhou Shaofan said: "After my hometown sends someone, you can use it as you see fit. Send me back any inappropriate ones. Be as polite as possible."

Zhou Jinyan's excitement was completely gone, no wonder he was asked to go to Yuefang to see people, and he didn't have much confidence in Zhou's people for a long time.

If the quality is poor and he refuses to be disciplined, Zhou Jinyan really doesn't want to use it.

The father and son talked together almost all night, Zhou Shaofan's temper was very similar to Zhou Jinyan's, and some views were surprisingly consistent.

Regarding the matter of dealing with Princess Changle, let Zhou Jinyan let go of it, and don't be afraid of revenge from the eldest grandson's family or the eldest grandson empress.

This made Zhou Jinyan sigh in his heart, this old man really liked the boy, and made his last worry disappear without a trace.

After breakfast the next day, Zhou Shaofan called Zhou Jinyan, and the two rode together, without bringing anyone, to Yuefang.

Yuefang is just a name, not Lifang, it is located in Xiudefang.

Xiudefang is located in the northwest corner of Chang'an, next to Jingyao Gate, and a little far from Zhou Mansion.

Zhou Shaofan and Zhou Jinyan rode horses and walked slowly along the streets of Chang'an Avenue.

"Father, I forgot to tell you something last night." Zhou Jinyan suddenly remembered something.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Shaofan asked casually.

"There are quite a few people involved in the matter of Changle, and even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also asked me to give up Changle." After a pause, "The Crown Prince said that if I give up Changle, he will reuse me in the future."

Zhou Shaofan hissed lightly, and slowed down his horse, "The prince came here in person?"

"Well," Zhou Jinyan said, "I came here twice, and I didn't see him the second time."

Zhou Shaofan said calmly: "What do you think? There should be some other conditions, right?"

"The other conditions are naturally easy to talk about except for Changle." Zhou Jinyan said helplessly: "The matter is said so far, so I should agree."

Zhou Shaofan laughed loudly, without asking any further questions, raised his horsewhip, lashed the BMW hard, and ran forward.

At Chenshi, Zhou's father and son finally arrived at Yuefang.

Yuefang looks ordinary from the outside, similar to a normal mansion.

"The house is so big, how many people does it have to accommodate?" Zhou Jinyan sighed inwardly.

"There should be quite a few people recently." Zhou Shaofan said: "It seems that His Majesty has not rewarded others for a long time."

Zhou Jinyan was somewhat excited, it was like choosing a concubine.You don't have to be responsible for choosing...

The two walked in all the way, unimpeded, Zhou Jinyan suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help asking: "Is there any woman who knows martial arts?"

"Do you know martial arts?"

Zhou Shaofan glanced at him, "I'm afraid not, and it's useless to say that women know martial arts. If the mansion is really short of people, I'll send some more."

Zhou Jinyan felt a little disappointed, what his father said was automatically ignored by him.

At this time, a plainly dressed woman in her 30s came over.

Chapter 86 Isn't it amazing?

"This official, who are you?" The woman looks average, very fat, and looks powerful.

Zhou Shaofan took out a token, "I am Zhou Shaofan, General of Zuo Tunwei. Three years ago, His Majesty rewarded me with ten servants, and I am here to ask for them today."

"Three years ago?" The fat woman exclaimed, and then said in embarrassment: "General Zhou, wait in the living room, I'll send someone to check."

"Just tell me, I didn't want it at the time, can I get it again today?"

"This," the fat woman hesitated, "it should be possible, but if you can't find it, I'm afraid..."

"You try to look for it," Zhou Shaofan waved his hands generously, "It doesn't matter if you can't find it."

A maid took the two of them to the side hall, and as soon as they sat down, Zhou Jinyan said awkwardly: "Father, this happened three years ago?"

"Yes, I didn't remind you, I can't remember."

Zhou Jinyan: "..."

The fat woman walked quickly into a dark room, and said to a woman inside: "Gu Wen, help me check the rewards from three years ago, is there a man named Zhou Shaofan? General."

"Okay." A slightly old voice came from inside.

The fat woman complained outside: "I didn't want it at the time, but I want it three years later. It's a god."

Wen Gu smiled and said, "Maybe I need it now."

"That can't be done like this," the fat woman said angrily, "What is this? It just adds to our troubles."

There was the sound of flipping through papers in the room, and after a while, Gu Wen said: "There is such a thing, the Supreme Emperor rewarded him with ten maidservants."

"Why are there so many?"

The fat woman sighed and waved to a maid by the door. After she left, she said, "I heard that Empress Changsun was found to be pregnant a few days ago. Your Majesty is happy and wants to pardon the world. This is good." I don't know whose girl is going to serve others."

Wen Gu said quietly: "Who among us here can go out and live alone? If you meet a good family, it's not bad."

"These are ten people. If they go, they will not be concubines, but they must be slaves." The fat woman got up with a displeased face, "They are all well-educated, delicate and expensive, and once they become slaves, they will be matched with the most Lowly slaves. The people we carefully educated are matched with those servants? Hmph."

Aunt Wen smiled lightly and said, "Everyone has their own destiny. It's their destiny, and they can't escape it."

"That's what I said, but I'm not happy." The fat woman said, "How can Your Majesty reward ten at once? Usually, there are three or two at most. If you go to the status, you can be a concubine at least. Here are ten." ...do evil and do evil."

Aunt Wen didn't speak, only the sound of pages being turned from time to time in the room...

"Two, a total of one hundred and thirteen people."

The fat woman glanced at the women standing in the yard, "You can take whoever you like, there are ten spots in total."

Zhou Jinyan looked from the room and saw more than 100 women outside, lined up in seven or eight teams.

The women all bowed their heads and wore plain clothes.

There are big and small, old and young.

To Zhou Jinyan's surprise, he also saw three or four little girls in the front row.

On the other side, I also saw some old women in their 60s and [-]s.

Zhou Shaofan glanced at it when he went out, and said with a smile, "Did you see it? This is the manifestation of my great Tang Dynasty."
