Startled Meng

Chapter 15 Feast

Mr. Yan and the Shaodong family did not deal with each other, but Boss Qin saw it all.

Yan Cijing is an official in charge of taxes in the Ministry of Households. Yu Fang knew that he was a big businessman on the wealthy side. The more money he made, the more taxes he paid, so the two people's positions were inherently different.

And a while ago, the tax increase incident caused a commotion. The relationship between Mr. Yan and the Shaodong family must not be good. It is not nonsense. Boss Qin saw it in his eyes. At that time, the two met in the teahouse and met with their enemies. It seemed that the Shaodong's family had provoked many times, and Boss Qin didn't find it surprising that the two really fought.

In addition, Boss Qin didn't like Yan Cijing very much.

Look at this bright vermilion official uniform, I'm afraid that others will not know that he has become a small official like a sesame seed!It's great to be an official if you have a long face all day long?Why are you so proud? !

Boss Qin followed from a distance and saw Yan Cijing being stopped.

Ouch!Have you met enemies after doing so many bad things?Boss Qin was waiting for the clothed man to greet Yan Cijing, but unexpectedly, the man pulled out a piece of paper full of words from his sleeve.

Looks like a scholar, right?Boss Qin knows that this is called Gan Ye. It is very common for students to use their own articles to help educated people. This is very common. Firstly, students can know their own level, and secondly, they can also bring good reputation to the people who are asked. , so there are a lot of people who do it before the exam.

But Yan Cijing returned it to the scholar without even looking at it. The scholar was still in a daze, but Yan Cijing had gone a long way!

Well!How proud!

Boss Qin continued to follow, and saw another fat scholar stop Yan Cijing, and let him read the article, but this time Yan Cijing accepted it, and read it on the spot on the street.

Boss Qin was wondering about the change in his attitude before and after, when he saw the scholar take out a heavy purse and stuff it into Yan Cijing's sleeve, so heavy that Yan Cijing's wide cuff was stretched.

Got it all!Boss Qin turned and left, scolding "dog officer" several times!

Yu Fangzhi didn't know that Boss Qin was so defending himself that he was eating shortbread in the small courtyard of his home.

Painted and carved imperial concubine couch, flowing water from pavilions, terraces and waterside pavilions, rare and exotic plants are rare in Yecheng, and inside the house is even more water-like nanmu furniture, red sandalwood screen. Satisfied, he chewed half a piece of lotus cake and stared at Fu Yun, playing his bad temper like a rich young master.

"Master! Who knew that the house you liked the most was taken back by the government! It's something you can't help but get angry! I don't know what's so good about that house, but you insist on living there." Xiao Qing looked at her young master Not happy, persuaded.

"The furniture and decorations are all bought in batches, at most the location is different, how could you be dissatisfied?"

Yu Fangzhi said with distaste: "Too much nonsense!"

Xiaoqing was silent for a while, then continued to babble: "It's next door, why don't we drill the dog hole to have a look at night, and feast our eyes?"

"Drill yourself!"

Xiaoqing thought for a while, then squatted beside the imperial concubine's bed, close to Yu Fangzhi's ear, rolled his eyes, and whispered: "Master, I heard someone say that someone died in that house—it's unlucky to live there!"

Yu Fangzhi gave Xiao Qing a push: "The emperor still died on the dragon bed, why don't you say that the dragon bed is not good!"

Xiaoqing didn't care about the difference between master and servant, quickly covered Yu Fangzhi's mouth, and said in horror: "Master, you can't say that!"

After Yu Fangzhi was so stared that Xiaoqing took his hand away, he reached out to Xiaoqing: "Where is the letter from Yu Wanqian? Show it to me?"

Xiaoqing got used to the language and knew to call the master's full name, nodded, took out the letter from his chest and handed it over.

Yu Fangzhi lay on the couch and unfolded the letter facing the blue sky. The letter paper was quite big. When he squinted his eyes, there was a line written on the paper: Brat!Come back to me!

Yu Fang made a sound, threw the letter to Xiao Qing, and spit out two words lightly: "No reply."

Xiao Qing: "Master, why don't you go back?"

Yu Fangzhi replied: "Isn't it to help my father manage Ye City's property? You have also seen how difficult it is to deal with those bad and wrong accounts, and how difficult it is to deal with those shopkeepers."

Xiao Qing nodded. In Jiangling Yu Fangzhi, he had been helping Yu Wanqian a lot, and he was very quick in Ye City. In just a few days, he taught the shopkeepers under his hands to be obedient, except for the brown candy-like Qin boss!

Just as he was thinking, Yu Fangzhi got up from the couch and jumped up to the eaves.

"Master! Where are you going?"

"Go and drink!"

Yu Fang knew that he had indeed gone to a banquet for a drink, and he was still with Xie Xuan.

Wei Wei, the son of the prime minister Wei Cheng, sent name cards to all the courtiers' homes in the court hall on the grounds of making friends with insightful people. Those who have entered the officialdom or not, as long as they are of the same age with the heart of forming good karma, Anyone can join the banquet. Besides, there are many famous students who have not yet taken the scientific examination.

Famous delicacies, gifted scholars and beauties, the scene is full of excitement.

"Hey! What a great handwriting!" Yu Fangzhi held the handle and just bought a folding fan to enter the arena. The largest banquet building in Quanye City occupied the entire first floor, but Yu Fangzhi was used to big scenes and thought it was normal.

On the contrary, Xie Xuan looked like a countryman who had never seen the big world, looking left and right, looking around: "Hey! This ostentation is worth a month's military pay for the northern army!"

The two of them were watching, when Wei Wei came over, followed by a large group of people, Wei Wei was tall and strong, and spoke in a strong voice: "Long time no see, Mr. Xie, is the famous Mr. Yu beside you?"

Before the two of them could speak, the people behind Wei Wei praised him, saying that he thanked the commanding envoy for his extraordinary martial arts, who received the true biography of the great general, and that Mr. Yu is a good-looking talent, and that he was lucky to meet Sansheng today.

Xie Xuan is a military officer, he only knows how to drink ton to express his gratitude, the language is different, playing with the folding fan in his hand, he casually thanked Wei Wei for inviting him, and by the way praised Wei Wei's family is well-off, if he is himself, it is such a big event Banquet, also have to take out half a year's account.

Wei Wei laughed dryly, instructed his servants to take good care of him, and left.

As soon as Wei Wei left, the others followed suit, leaving a knotted Fan Zhi staring at Yu Fangzhi, Yu Fangzhi was not annoyed, and "slapped" the fan in his hand, revealing a line of gilded characters, Fan Zhi almost He flipped the table angrily.

What was written on the fan was: Nine out of ten people could look down on me.

Yu Fangzhi saw that Fan Zhi's face turned pale with anger, and he was overjoyed. Xie Xuan didn't see the words on the fan, and looked around, showing a look that had never seen money: "This banquet is really going to ruin you. How about half a year's account?"

Yu Fangzhi said lightly: "Actually, it's only half a day."

"Then what you said just now, aren't you saying that the prime minister's treasury is as rich as an enemy?"

"Is there? Did I say that?" Yu Fang knew it or not, and sat down shaking the fan bought on the street for three Wen.

Before the banquet, there was a group of harmony, but after the banquet, the seating positions were somewhat distinct.

In the court, the prime minister Wei Cheng's faction has always been arrogant, just because the prime minister was a minister of Tuogu for quite a long time, and he is a brother and sister with the current queen mother, and is the emperor's uncle. In addition, the current queen is all from the Wei family. No one dares to question the relationship.

As for the faction of Deputy Prime Minister Zhang Shaoqiu, most of them were selected through layers of selection after the new emperor succeeded to the throne. The capable ministers with political achievements are most disgusted by the dignitaries who inherited the shadow of their ancestors.

The clues of the struggle were also glimpsed at the banquet, and they were naturally divided into two groups. Even the scholars who had not yet taken the exam were not spared.

Yu Fangzhi looked at it and shook his head, flipped the fan over with a "snap", and another line of big characters was revealed: Bai Wuyi is a scholar.

He and Xie Xuan found an empty table and sat down without standing on either side.

Why is he joining in the fun as a merchant?And Xie Xuan, because of his father and elder brother's great military achievements, didn't stand on either side, so naturally someone came up to curry favor, so he didn't do that self-defeating thing.

Unexpectedly, there was another person sitting at the edge of the most deserted table, and that person bowed to them both with modesty and courtesy.

Xie Xuan recognized him, and Bi Shouyan, the son of Grand Tutor Bi Zhixing: "I heard that Mr. Bi is preparing for the exam at home, so it's strange to see him here." Because of the allocation of military rations in the early years, Bi Zhixing helped the general with his words, so Xie Xuan was very fond of him. Bi's family is quite fond of it.

Bi Shouyan nodded: "My father was also worried that I would get bored reading all day long in the room, so he let me out and walk around." He smiled lightly, and told Yu Fang, "Mr. Yu's folding fan is interesting!"

Seeing that Bi Shouyan didn't mean to be sarcastic or disgusted, he said happily, "Mr. Bi doesn't feel offended?"

Bi Shouyan said: "That's not true. This handwriting is strong, powerful, vigorous and free, which is very good."

"If you like it, just take it!" Yu Fangzhi threw the fan away, Bi Shouyan didn't refuse, and accepted it after thanking him, but he left soon, saying that it was time for my father to leave the teahouse. Come out, go to pick up.

Yu Fang knew that there was no folding fan, and he couldn't stop the people who wanted to make friends with him. He was annoyed, and asked Xie Xuan next to him if there was someone waiting for him in the teahouse. Xie Xuan shook his head with a bitter face. He wanted to leave too. It's uncomfortable for him to deal with humanities like a military officer.

He looked out of the window absently, just in time to see clumps of black smoke billowing in the distance: "Is it on fire?"

Yu Fangzhi also looked out of the window, and saw that the clouds in the eastern sky were disturbed by the thick smoke. If you look carefully, you can still see a small inch of tongues of flames. This direction...

Xie Xuan frowned: "The fire is getting bigger and bigger, hasn't the military patrol shop taken action yet?"

Yu Fangzhi snorted, and said sarcastically, "Military inspection shops have always been like this."
