Qingzhou trip

King Jin's feast for the gods at the mansion was disturbed by Hu Yuanwailang, who was in trouble.Although this person only got a pair of mung bean eyes, he paid attention to Zhao Yifang after the 25 sticks.Later, I found out that she was the real appeasement envoy of the Three States, and she slapped her thighs with joy at home, "Xie Penglai, this bitch has been carrying the sky all day long, and this time it can be regarded as falling into the Bian River. Just wait for her job to be dismissed." .”

He waited for a few days until Xie Penglai was officially promoted to the seventh rank county magistrate, not to mention the same rank as him, the son of a noble family who was the former deputy commander of the ancestor of Mengyin, and was invited by King Jin to work in the mansion.

After the establishment of Shahai Academy, Xie Penglai began to take time every day to lecture on history for King Jin. "The county magistrate of Qipin, Moliu Juzi, is still a woman, what kind of history can I tell?" Hu Yuanwailang and his colleagues made jokes about Xie Penglai before they even had time to put the mutton in their chopsticks into their mouths.It was only after being reminded by a wink that King Jin didn't know when he was standing behind him.

King Jin just gave him a cold look, and Hu Yuanwailang didn't catch the mutton.I don't know how to eat a banquet.In addition, he heard that King Jin used to go in and out of Flower Lane in micro-clothes, broke up other people's couplets, and often sang with Liu Qinsang, a famous prostitute from Beijing.In order to take pictures of King Jin's horses, he invited all the people in Vasheli who were holding drums, clappers, flutes and sheng on his own initiative, and then persuaded Liu Qinsang to cheer for the banquet.

Liu Qinsang waited outside Jin Wang's mansion and waited for Hu Yuanwailang's people to invite him.I wanted to use this trick to make King Jin happy, but she gave her a cold look, "How much is the monthly envoy's money for the bureau under the rule of Hu Yuanwailang?" In this dynasty, all the envoys are paid from the county magistrate to the prince. .King Jin can receive more than 2 taels a year, and Wailang, a member of the Seventh Rank Bureau, is in charge of about a few hundred taels in Curry.

But who is Liu Qinsang?It took a lot to invite people from the entire Washe.King Jin smiled leisurely when he learned that this incident would cost a hundred taels of silver, "I had a banquet at the king's house, and it was a good intention for Hu Yuanwailang to use the envoy's money to entertain songs. But it's hard to say how the money will be spent. In this prince’s mansion, the censor in Beijing can take another copy.” His tone was easy-going, pointing at Hu Yuanwailang to frame her, which made people restless.

Zhao Yifang was bored with the banquet, looking across the sea of ​​sand, she couldn't find a capable official except Xie Penglai.However, there are many idiots who are difficult to get on the stage and make mistakes wantonly.She secretly instructed Li Mei, "Tell Miss Liu Qinsang that this king treats her as a friend and will not accept Hu Yuanwailang's invitation."

Looking at them one by one, there are only four or five female officials.The bureau officials at Hu Yuanwailang's table were all either tired or wretched. I really didn't know whether this guy in the bureau was doing business with Bei Xia to gain face or to embarrass himself.

Zhao Yifang was leaning on the chair holding an empty wine cup, her eyes met Xie Penglai on the left, and a thought came to her mind. She leaned into Xie County magistrate's ear, covered her mouth and said, "It's really boring, talent, knowledge, No one can catch up with Master Xie in terms of appearance and character." Sure enough, seeing Xie Penglai's ears turning pink, Zhao Yifang sat back in satisfaction.After sitting down for a while, he took advantage of his exhaustion to take a rest first, and left a cavalier in charge to accompany the others to drink.

Xie Penglai didn't drink much, but he always felt that Zhao Yifang was not in the mood tonight, and the way he looked at him before leaving the banquet was rather weird.Sure enough, it was only half a tour after drinking, and Li Mo came to invite him quietly.

But this time, he didn't enter the study or the living room, but was led to an ear room in the northernmost corner.There is only one table on the kang, on which are several dishes of hot dishes and a pot of wine.Zhao Yifang was sitting in front of the desk reading, when she saw Xie Penglai coming, she pointed in front of her face, "Master Xie, please sit down."

She put down the book, and Xie Penglai saw that it was "Sixteen States Anping Policy", written by Lu Jie, a great talent in Beijing and the number one scholar of the late emperor.

"I don't know much about this person, so I asked someone to get all his early articles and writings from Beijing to take a look first." Zhao Yifang poured wine for Xie Penglai first, and when he saw this person hurriedly bowed and stopped her, " I chose this side room because it is far away from the banquet and it is clean. I know that Master Xie didn’t eat and drink well at night, so no, let the kitchen prepare some more according to your taste.”

On the table are the world-famous "Northern Food" dishes, and Xie Penglai, a native of Jibei, has eaten this kind of food since childhood.After coming to Shahai, I rarely taste it again.Dim sum, steamed buns and pasta served with scallion-splashed rabbit and stewed lamb are indeed Xie Penglai's favourites.

"Thank you, but don't be polite, drink as you like." King Jin picked up the book again after finishing speaking, and began to read while pinching a steamed bun with the other hand.King Jin at the banquet just now was majestic in every movement and movement, even if Hu Yuanwailang made her unhappy twice tonight, Zhao Yifang's expression remained calm.Thinking about it carefully, apart from making jokes about her getting married a few times, she has a good sense of things and things, and it seems that she has hidden a heart to make contributions and came to the Northwest.

Zhao Yifang stared down at the book, his eyes were filled with tranquility, and his chewing also slowly stopped.Xie Penglai also gradually let go, and picked up another book on the case to read while eating.

When the autumn wind was late at night, the guests in the front hall had already dispersed, and Zhao Yifang and Xie Penglai in the side room were still sitting silently facing each other.After reading Lu Jie's brochure, Zhao Yifang sighed, "Sure enough, he is the number one scholar. It's a pity that he is over fifty. Apart from playing around and flattering His Majesty, Lu Jie has long since lost his ambition to calm Yanyun when he was in his twenties. .”

Xie Penglai put down the chopsticks, only then did Zhao Yifang realize that she had eaten most of the dishes in silence, and then raised her eyebrows happily and smiled, "Does it suit Master Xie's taste?"

"Your Highness treats me so kindly, Xie can't do anything..." Xie Penglai was choked and coughed there.

Zhao Yifang moved to her side and patted her on the back gently, "I told you not to be rude." She glanced at Xie Penglai's flushed face reproachfully, "Don't say anything, you won't get anything in return. Why don’t I prepare some bouillon and dishes if you tell me about the yamen?”

Xie Penglai slightly moved his position outwards, and only after drinking two cups of wine did he look at King Jin squarely. With the smell of alcohol on his face, his words revealed his true meaning, "Lu Jie is not only flattering, it is a last resort."

King Jin's face darkened, "If others say that, I'll kick her out. But if Master Xie says, I'll listen." The bad old man Lu Jie was the first official who agreed to kick her out of Beijing, Zhao Yifang recorded this account down.

"Your Majesty has liked two things the most since he ascended to the pole: offering sacrifices to Chan and worshiping at the camp. What do you dislike the most? The matter of armored soldiers. Lu Jie wrote a letter to accept Yanyun a few years ago, and descended to Beixia. What is the result? Three He was transferred to another post, and finally he was sent to the Southwest to be a regiment training envoy." Xie Penglai read the mansion newspaper and was able to sort it out after many years, "How did he get promoted? Someone advised His Majesty to send troops to Beixia, but he wrote a letter saying no. "Later, the battle was fought and defeated, but Lu Jie was promoted a few ranks and returned to the capital.

Pour another glass of wine for Xie Penglai, Zhao Yifang asked her to continue talking.Xie Penglai hiccupped after drinking it, covered his face with his sleeves and paused, "It's not Lu Jie's easy will, it's His Majesty's hard-to-take."

King Jin fell silent.Xie Penglai wiped the sweat from the alcohol on his forehead, "Your Majesty's ambition is to be a Taiping Emperor. With the talents of our ancestors, Yanyun can't do anything, let alone His Majesty is raised in a deep palace, so he doesn't experience the sufferings of the world?"

"Master Xie thinks, should we fight or make peace?" Zhao Yifang's eyes widened, and the anger on her face seemed to be pressed between her teeth.

Xie Penglai drank his head, raised the jug and poured it directly into his mouth, "It's weird, how does this look like my hometown in Jibei?" Unaware of King Jin's fierce look, "No fight, no peace." She finally wiped the corners of her mouth, "Your Highness, you came from the capital, and you know how miserable the battle of Yunfangjiang was that day? The food and grass turnover is still on the way, and the rear is unable to cope with the ice and snow. Yunfangjiang insists on sticking to the sand sea and peace Sanzhou, but he was from Beijing, such a eunuch, called... what is his name, I don't remember...

"He ordered three attacks, and the reinforcements were ambushed everywhere. How can he be undefeated?" Xie Penglai snorted coldly, "Who is this Lao Shizi's court fighting for, and for whom? Is it worth it?"

Zhao Yifang's eyes finally attracted her, Xie Penglai leaned on the desk, and looked at King Jin timidly.

"Pa—" Zhao Yifang smashed the wine cup to the ground, suddenly pinched Xie Penglai's chin and kissed it, and then rubbed her lips clumsily after touching it.Xie Penglai was dumbfounded, but Zhao Yifang grinned, "I really did not misunderstand the person, thank you teacher... eh, thank you teacher?"

Xie Penglai tried his best to blink, and finally fell down and fell asleep.

Zhao Yifang laughed and fell beside Xie Penglai, but her heartbeat increased and she was agitated for a while, and finally rolled around and fell on Xie Penglai's arms.King Jin closed his eyes and laughed again.
