Minister

102【Seven years of Jiankang】

Wei Chi ran back to Qingyuan with a messy dish of fruit, Li Xiange pointed at the dish of fruit and asked secretly: "Where did you steal it?"

Wei Chi shook his head: "The emperor rewarded you, and the students were tricked."

Li Xiange snorted: "Look, the old men are all gone, sir, I am here to wait for you."

Yes, the old men are gone, and the young people are tired of fighting, waiting for the dinner party to go home.Wei Chi punched Li Xiange: "Teacher is really a leader in the literary world!"

"What the fuck, my uncle is afraid that you will get into trouble again. Three years ago, you squatted on the rockery like a bald-tailed eagle. It was very scary. If you wandered somewhere again this time, wouldn't it be embarrassing again?" ?”

Wei Chi said angrily: "Isn't it shameful last time? If I don't climb higher, how can you find me?"

Li Xiange secretly pulled Wei Chi's sleeve: "Let's go, let's go, although you don't have a wife, you don't plan to marry the next door, right? Don't get in the way here."

Wei Chi wrapped the plate of fruit with a handkerchief: "The emperor is really honest, can you dump such a big pile and send me away."

Li Xiange smiled and said, "The emperor likes you."

"Come on, what you say is making the student's back hurt!" Wei Chi stuffed the big bag of food into his sleeve.

Dr. Li and Wei Jijiu sneaked out of Qingyuan, and were about to breathe a sigh of relief when they suddenly heard an extremely cold call from the corner: "Teacher..."

Dr. Li first figured out the situation, and sent Wei Chi forward ruthlessly: "I'm calling you! I'm going back for supper for the teacher!"

Wei Chi took a closer look, and Lin Mao stood quietly in the corner, with resentment all over his face: "The one whose surname is Wei, now I have a vendetta..."

Seeing no one around, Wei Chi walked over and whispered, "Brother-in-law...does the yellow croaker taste good?"

Lin Mao was about to have a fit, but suddenly saw a group of wandering dandies coming towards him, so he quickly pulled Wei Chi and jumped off the flower stage.Wei Chi saw that this guy was also in good shape, so it can be seen that his ability to walk the dog and tease the eagle is not bad, and the master of the Lin family has put in a lot of effort.

"His grandfather's!" Lin Mao muttered, "Because there are so many people arguing with me, I hid and chased after them."

Feelings are running away, Wei Chi immediately gloats: "Brother-in-law is usually eloquent, why is he not as powerful today?"

Lin Mao was so angry that he vomited blood when he thought that the master of the trouble had dared to speak sarcastic words. Unfortunately, there were so many people outside that he couldn't argue with this person, so he could only sulk.Wei Chi smiled and handed over a handful of pine nuts.Lin Hao rolled his eyes at him angrily, and Wei Chi said kindly: "Brother-in-law, this is a reward from the emperor. I have tasted it. The big ones are easy to knock, but the delicious ones are not good." Wei Chi forced a handful into his hand: "Don't get angry. The teacher also thought that the capable person would do it. If he wants to change someone else, the teacher still dare not let him block the knife for the teacher."

"Fortunately!" Lin Hao said fiercely: "A man who is more shameless than me, only met you. Counting women and eunuchs, you are still the only one."

Wei Chi peeled the pine nuts, and suddenly asked: "That cousin of yours, who is she now?"

"What cousin?" Lin Mao was puzzled.

"Lin Yuzan." Wei Chi said carefully.

Lin Mao said lightly, "She was not chosen..."

"You didn't choose... Your Majesty?" Wei Chi couldn't believe it.

Lin Mao spat out the pine nuts in his mouth: "She didn't choose the show girl...why..." Lin Mao looked Wei Chi up and down: "Brother-in-law took a fancy to it?"

Wei Chi quickly waved his hand: "No, no...just..." Wei Chi recounted what happened just now: "The emperor rewarded me for this, I thought she had already entered the palace...but she didn't." It's really unreasonable to choose..."

Lin Hao laughed: "You were already hated by those stupid guys, now it's over, let the word out tomorrow, remember to put on a pair of armor on your way home."

Wei Chi quickly signaled Lin Mao to be reserved: "If you are more arrogant, the second idiot will show you right now."

Lin Mao smiled and bent back.It was getting late, and the clouds at the corner of the sky were already stained with twilight.Wei Chi knocked out the last pine nut: "It's quite unexpected, I thought your cousin was destined to enter the palace..."

Lin Mao sneered: "That's what you don't know. Although she is also surnamed Lin, she is actually a cousin of our family who is far away. Her family is originally in the south of the Yangtze River. It is said that her father was a yarn merchant and went bankrupt the year before last. After suffering for more than a year, seeing that there was no way out, I asked her to come to my family. What I wanted was to marry a good family, but unfortunately, this person has a big heart, and other people are not eye-catching, so I just waited for the draft girl. Actually, the show girl has no background Can someone choose? She ran out of places in the first round of entering the palace... She thought that the Lin family would support her... She didn't even think about it. In fact, men can help with such things? The female family members in the family If you don't do your best, she won't even be able to see the face of the emperor, so what's the use of being beautiful?" Lin Mao raised two fingers: "It takes so much to choose a good girl."

"Two thousand taels?"

"Twenty thousand!"

"Twenty thousand?!" Wei Chi almost jumped up: "Twenty thousand taels?!"

"Teacher Wei, Mr. Lin, what are you two doing squatting in this ditch...?" Luo Ying poked her head out from behind the flowers.

Lin Hao hurriedly dragged him in. Luo Ying was a good student and almost sprained her ankle.Wei Chi was still immersed in the shock of [-] taels, and when Luo Ying and Lin Mao jumped up, he was relieved: "Luo Ying, has the dinner already started?"

Luo Ying nodded.

"Show me the way, I'm leaving." Wei Chi patted the waist of the pine nut shell cat on his body and stood up.Lin Mao also said, "I'm leaving too."

Luo Ying was very surprised: "There are still a lot of interesting things at the dinner party, why does the teacher have to leave?"

Wei Chi and Lin Mao looked at each other and smiled.

When he slipped out of the palace, the sun was already touching the ground. Wei Chi looked back at the huge door of the palace and the huge purple gold rivets on the door, and said with emotion: "Actually, it's a good thing that your cousin didn't get selected. Once you enter the Hou family, it's as deep as the sea. How can this door be compared to the Hou family? Rather than being a man with your tail tucked inside, it's better to marry an honest person and live happily for the rest of your life."

"Others don't think like you. You said that this beautiful girl was not selected to find someone to marry, right? I just asked my mother to add her to the list of this spring banquet... It can be seen that everyone thinks differently."

That's right, I thought differently. I said it nicely, but I didn't marry an honest man... What qualifications do I have to say about others?

"Please have a meal for Master..." Wei Chi said.

"Eh?"

"Hey what? Let's go!"

Lin Mao muttered a few words bitterly, but couldn't resist, so he had to watch helplessly as this man went to a restaurant that didn't look cheap at first sight.

Wei Chi has a bad personality, and when he is in a bad mood, he takes pleasure in torturing others.Lin Mao complained incessantly at the restaurant, and Xu Wei also suffered the same crime.

In fact, Chen Yan could see very clearly that Lin Yuzan was indeed extremely beautiful, but he had no impression of this name from the beginning to the end.In terms of talent, in terms of appearance, she should not be able to become a show girl, but let alone enter, she has never passed the appearance!Thinking about it carefully, I don't know how many people have stolen so much money during the selection process this time!These people have already figured out how to beg their wives!Chen Xing was more angry than regretful.

Xu Wei knelt on the ground, terrified in his heart, this selection was handled by Xiang Fang, and the money was naturally taken up by various treasuries and divisions, but there are some things that you can know and you can do if you don’t do it, but you can’t say it .Xu Wei thought about it, and finally said: "Your Majesty, that Miss Lin is very talented, why don't you... go to the Lin family...?"

Chen Xing poured the teacup on the ground with a bang, and the tea splashed Xu Weiyi's face.Xu Wei was so frightened that she quickly shut up.

Chen Xing took a deep breath and suppressed his anger: "Tell... how many people were there this time, and how much money was eaten! Tell me everything you know!"

Xu Wei lowered her head: "In addition to the selected treasurers, there is... Knitting Bureau..."

"Knitting Bureau?" Chen Maomao lowered his waist: "Their hands are stretched so long? Do they think they don't eat enough?"

Under Chen Xing's vicious gaze, Xu Wei lowered his head even lower—Huang Gui is the master of the Knitting Bureau, and even the master of the East Factory. Although he is half a point shorter than Xiang Fang's eunuch, but... ...in fact, I dare not touch it.

What's more, Huang Gui is Xiang Fang's apprentice... Sigh!

"Back off..." Chen Yan sighed.

"Master!" Xu Wei cried: "Why are you just a slave, master, don't get angry!"

Chen Yan rubbed his forehead: "Back off!"

Huang Gui!Dongchang!Wang Yunyi!

"Hmph!" Chen Yan suddenly sneered: "You! Take out the coral in the private warehouse, the one that Huang Gui brought back from Fujian and Zhejiang three years ago! Take someone to the Lin's mansion and reward that Lin Yuzan, give it to her!"

Xu Weiwei backed out obediently, thought for a while, and ordered his subordinates to quietly go to the private warehouse to get the coral, but he still went to find Xiang Fang without touching the ground.

Xiang Fang was on duty at the Supervisor of Rituals, and Xu Wei rushed in without waiting for the informant to finish speaking.

"Aren't you on duty tonight?" Xiang Fang was taken aback.

Seeing that there was no one else in the room, Xu Wei hurriedly explained everything that happened just now.Xiang Fang frowned and sighed deeply.Xu Wei slapped himself: "It's all because of my son's troubles! Such a remote turret brought the master up, what luck! I ran into the princess's maid who was there to meet Mrs. Wei there! Who knew that Lin Yuzan suddenly appeared again. Come out to play an ensemble! Alas! Touched the emperor's reverse scale!"

Xiang Fang grabbed Xu Wei's hand: "Even if Mr. Wei didn't come out like this today, that Lin Yuzan would have made trouble. Since she has a dissatisfied heart, she has this meaning, no one can stop her, anyone can stop her." Can't stop. No matter what you think about Huang Gui today, he will definitely blame me for this matter. Since the emperor just sent a coral, it means to ring a bell. Now Wang Yunyi is in full swing again , what power does the emperor have besides Huang Gui's Dongchang? So... no matter how rampant Huang Gui is now, the emperor will bear it! As for the debt on my head... is it still too little? It's not bad, you just do it. Huang Gui only dared to seek revenge on that Lin Yuzan, and he didn't have the guts to settle accounts with our family, so let's do it now! As for that Tangtang, she is the elder Princess, although this eldest princess is usually kind to others, she is actually the most ignorant person. Since she is interested in Mr. Wei, it is Mr. Wei's good fortune. She has her own ideas. Since the emperor has no intention of disobeying her, Don't be a scapegoat, send the new palace flowers another day, send them yourself, and say a few more words with the eldest princess, and say how good Mrs. Wei is."

Xu Wei nodded: "Now that Huang Gui is in charge of the entire Dongchang, there is nothing he dare not do. In the twelfth lunar month of last year, he didn't give the cabinet face, and killed half of the officials who should be beaten! I'm afraid he is It's becoming more and more unscrupulous!"

Xiang Fang smiled: "Let him be arrogant! No matter how arrogant he is, he's just a dog. Wang Yunyi is just too lazy to clean him up. If he really wants to clean up, it's as easy as picking up a dog... By the way! Mr. Wei will see the prince soon Is it? You should visit him before he meets the prince, and don't let him misunderstand you, you understand."

Xu Wei said with a smile: "Don't worry about this godfather. My son and Mr. Wei have some serious friendship, otherwise I wouldn't dare to make fun of him like this, he wouldn't take it seriously... However, I don't remember godfather praising him like this before .”

Xiang Fang said: "Anyone who can benefit from Wang Yunyi's hands is a talented person. If the princess really wants to marry him, that's fine."

Either good or bad.

Tangtang was very worried, because she and Wuliu had left, and she didn't know what that Eunuch Xu had said to Master Wei.Although I can do some things I can't do with the favor of my masters, but this thing will damage the face of the girl's family after all. If the masters know that I have encouraged the princess to do this, it will be hard to say what will happen to me.

It's okay to say bad.

At least I also met Mr. Wei once, he is an extraordinary man.The emperor doesn't want to see him, but in fact he likes him in his heart, otherwise he won't hold so many excuses.And she knows the emperor's character, he doesn't take people who he really dislikes, and he often talks about them.

Tangtang couldn't sleep outside, and Yuxiang couldn't sleep inside.After sleeping for a while, Yuxiang crawled out of the bed and slipped into Tangtang's bed. Tangtang was thinking about something, and was taken aback: "My little ancestor! How old is he? When we arrive, we will say that the princess has no rules."

Yuxiang ignored Tangtang's nagging, and buried his face in the quilt.

Tangtang sighed: "I'm a servant, with my head tied to my trouser belt, I'm still so scared that I can't sleep!"

Yuxiang rolled a few times and rolled up the quilt on his body.Tangtang had no choice but to sit up: "Little ancestor!!"

Yuxiang said in a muffled voice, "Did Bengong really lose all face today...isn't it?"

Tangtang turned over and pulled away a corner of the quilt: "No one knows about you, little ancestor, the shame is the servant girl, that Mr. Wei's face is stretched like the sole of a shoe, hum!"

Yuxiang crawled out of the quilt: "No, he won't..."

Tangtang snorted: "Who would have thought, anyway, this servant got a little dirty today."

"I'm not, that Miss Lin..." Yuxiang became depressed again.

"What Miss Lin!" Tangtang scratched Yuxiang's quilt: "No matter what, she's just Miss Lin, how can she compare with golden branches and jade leaves?"

Yuxiang thought of the way Wei Chi looked at her, surprised, admiring, and deja vu. In his heart, was she really just Miss Lin?Or is he just Princess Qinghe in his eyes?

The author has something to say: Dr. Li, the king of foul language...

Lin Yuzan, the unspoken rules of the draft...

Lin Meiren was so bold that she attacked directly... It's a pity that the emperor is not a nympho.

Wei Chi deeply feels that this year's draft is black...

Tangtang has complicated feelings, Yuxiang scratches the ground...

The power of eunuchs gradually surfaced... Comrade Huang Gui seemed to be able to fight against Uncle Wang. The emperor thought it was very powerful, but in fact it was a fruit knife...can't poke anyone to cut himself...
