Chapter 427 Convincing others with virtue(1/2)
Standing at the door of the room, Li Rusong laughed dryly: "Hehe... you're pretty bad at it."
Ignore it seriously.
He pushed Li Rusong away fiercely, then raised his chin high, pointed his nostrils at him, and then muttered.
"I don't know what's going on!"
Be familiar.
You can eat whatever you want, and you can't talk nonsense.
What kind of carbon monoxide poisoning? I don’t understand these things at all. There is no modern chemistry in this era, and no one understands them...
Seeing Chen Lie a little annoyed.
Li Rusong hurriedly apologized, no longer bothered him, but shouted into the new house: "Brother and sister... I've taken your master away!"
In the new house.
Zhang Jingxiu was wearing a new red dress and walked out. Her beautiful smile appeared on her bright face and her demeanor was polite.
"Please give me some advice."
Then she looked at her husband and pulled away with Mr. Li from Liaodong.
Seeing the two people's backs disappear, Zhang Jingxiu lowered her snow-white neck and pursed her lips and smiled secretly: "What a pair of... a fox and a dog party."
She is not at ease.
He chased after him and shouted: "Master... Come back early... drink less!"
Chen Lie responded hurriedly, and Li Rusong pulled his arm all the way outside the mansion, heading straight to the highest-end Zuixianju in the inner city.
now.
There are already people coming and going on the streets of this inner city.
After walking a few steps, the two met a group of noble men dressed up. They watched the noble men bowed their fists and greeted each other...
Chen Lie hurriedly followed Li Rusong to return a greeting.
“Congratulations to the New Year.”
"Congratulations."
After some greetings.
Chen Lie touched his head. He didn't know what these noble men were from. When he was confused, Li Rusong dragged him into the British Duke's Mansion again.
But the two came too late.
The British Duke Zhang Xun was not at home, and Chen Liezheng didn't know what to do, but Li Rusong quickly stepped forward, picked up the brush in the hall, and wrote his name on the gold-sprayed paper.
Then he waved to Chen Lie.
"oh."
Understood.
Chen Lie hurriedly stepped forward and wrote down his name. It turned out that the Ming Dynasty still had this rule. If the master was not at home, writing down his name would be considered to celebrate the New Year.
There is no need to welcome and see off, as it saves a lot of red tape.
Chen Lie thinks this rule is pretty good.
After leaving the Duke of England's mansion, the two of them walked around the homes of the elder Wuxun in the inner city, and it was already noon when they came out again.
"Go for a walk."
Chen Lie, who was going home to have a meal, was led by Li Rusong to the highest and most expensive restaurant in the inner city.
The private room has been booked long ago.
Entering the private room.
The door is closed.
Several beautiful girls in the private room held the pipa, and the guqin Yingying stood up. Yingying smiled and called the young master, and then started playing and singing.
The steaming meal was served and the fine wine was served.
Chen Lie curled his lips and muttered: "Isn't this sick?"
I just run a restaurant, but I want to go out and go to the restaurant.
Li Rusong ignored it.
After the girls finished singing a song, Yingying bowed and walked out of the private room with various instruments, she came over and said softly.
"You're finished!"
Chen Lie said angrily: "What happened again?"
Li Rusong laughed dryly: "Don't you know... will there be a grand ceremony this morning?"
Chen Lie said in a daze: "Ah?"
Is this happening?
After hearing what Li Rusong said, Chen Lie knew the rules of the Ming Dynasty.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, officials of all sizes and above in Beijing, as well as envoys of vassal states such as Korea and Ryukyu, lined up to enter the Forbidden City, congratulating the emperor on the New Year and performing a kneeling ceremony.
The ceremony was quite grand.
Looking at Chen Lie's face was confused, Li Rusong laughed: "You are so good, Lord Shen, you dare to abstain from the national gift?"
Chen Lie Ren was numb and shouted bitterly: "No one told me!"
How did I know this happening?
Li Rusong was gloating: "You just wait for punishment... If you miss the state gift, you will be fined for half a year."
Chen Lie also accepted his fate.
let it be.
Immediately afterwards.
Li Rusong held his smile again and came over and muttered softly: "Have you heard that... Last night, something big happened in the palace."
Chen Lie said calmly: "What's the big deal?"
The acting skills that he had only been single for twenty years have exploded again. Chen Lie's hand holding the wine glass is as steady as Mount Tai, without shaking at all.
That clear and pure look, a calm expression...
Li Rusong was suspicious and said vividly: "I heard that Zheng Shuyi's biological father died suddenly and died of smoke and poison. When he found out, he had been cold for half a night."
Chen Lie frowned and said softly: "Poisonous smoke, what kind of poisonous smoke? Could anyone dare to murder the royal relatives? Don't talk nonsense, have you seen it with your own eyes?"
Li Rusong smiled and said, "I haven't seen it, but... Zheng Shuyi was slapped by the empress dowager because of her misconduct and her behavior."
Chen Lieqi said: "Is there anything wrong?"
Li Rusong said confidently: "It's true!"
Seeing his expression so excited, he seemed to be fantasizing about the undercurrent that was about to explode in the palace after Zheng Shuyi fell out of favor from now on.
So Chen Lie's eyes turned and he whispered: "How did you, Mr. Li, know what happened in the palace last night?"
What it means.
You are so well-informed, could you put eyeliners in the palace?
Chen Lie suddenly realized and shouted softly: "Good you Li Rusong, how dare you put it in the palace..."
Not finished speaking.
Li Rusong's face turned pale in fear. He quickly stretched out his hand to cover Shen Lie's mouth, and glared fiercely.
Chen Lie rolled his eyes.
Don't let it go.
After a moment.
Li Rusong let go of his hand and said vaguely: "Drink, drink."
Chen Lie rolled his eyes again and picked up the wine glass.
At the same time.
Grand Master's Mansion.
The Taishi Mansion, which was once a constant stream of people, was still closed on the first day of the Lunar New Year in the tenth year of Wanli. Zhang Juzheng closed the door to thank the guests on the grounds that he was seriously ill and was bedridden.
Inside the house.
Zhang Jianxiu stood aside with his hands down, watching Zhang Juzheng lie down on the bed with a bowl of medicine, stretched out his hand, and let the famous doctor in Dingzhou Ma Jintang take the bowl's pulse.
In tranquility.
Ma Jintang let go of his hand and whispered: "Let me, let me add or subtract it, so... the master's pain can be relieved a little."
To be continued...
