The next night, the bright moonlight reflected on the sparkling Bianhe River. On the river bank, Ouyang Xu was bending his waist and respectfully following his father-in-law Gao Hu, listening carefully to Gao Hu's teachings. He had just left with Gao Hu.
After returning from the banquet, Gao Hu was very dissatisfied with his performance during the entire banquet. He had no integrity as a scholar at all. His posture was too low in front of those high-ranking officials and dignitaries, just like a flattering villain. He
He is Jinke's prodigy, and he is also the son-in-law of the Gao family. Such behavior is completely inconsistent with his status. It has completely lost Gao Hu's face and made his colleagues laugh.
Gao Hu walked on the stone bridge and said dissatisfied:
"When you were toasting just now, your waist was too low. You are the most popular person in Jinke, and you are also the son-in-law of my Gao family. In the future, you will rush to the post of a pavilion. All important ministers must have integrity.
Those who flatter themselves will be despised.”
Knowing that Gao Hu was not satisfied with his performance tonight, Ouyang Xu quickly said respectfully:
"Please give me more advice from Master Taishan in the future!"
"I'm not done yet!"
Gao Hu turned around and glanced at Ouyang Xu, who was respectful, and asked:
"When Your Majesty is finished meeting the officers, where do you want to go?"
"My son-in-law is young, so I will listen to Lord Taishan's arrangements!"
"Then go to Gongzhou. Gongzhou is close to Tokyo. After three years, you can become a capital official!"
Gao Hu decided directly. Hearing this, Ouyang Xu's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure. He kept bending down and promised again and again. Therefore, Gao Hu did not notice the displeasure and resentment in his eyes, but continued:
"The wind can start at the end of Qingping, but some trivial matters can also make people waste their time in officialdom. Xiao Qinyan, who is about to go to Beijing to pay homage to the prime minister, although he has won the trust of officials and the queen, has always had a bad reputation in the court.
, it is because he is too flattering to the officials and the queen. Those important ministers hate flatterers the most, and my Gao family is a relative of the emperor, so you must pay extra attention in this regard!"
"Yes, my son-in-law would like to listen to Master Taishan's teachings and keep them in mind at all times!"
"good!"
A group of people walked across the stone arch bridge. Gao Hu, who was slightly drunk, was helped by his servants to go home. Ouyang Xu stood in awe with a slight bow and respectfully sent Gao Hu off before getting up. At this time, Uncle De, who had been following him,
He said with an unhappy face:
"Official, this Gao Observer disrespects you too much. How can he decide the official position?"
"Okay, do you think I haven't been angry enough tonight?"
Ouyang Xu looked at the sparkling Bianhe River with dark eyes, and his voice was low. Uncle De immediately shut his mouth knowingly. At this time, Ouyang Xu asked again:
"Uncle De, how's the night banquet picture going?"
"Sir, I have sent someone to find Mr. Ke to exchange for the painting. If nothing happens, I will be able to reach Tokyo in three days!"
"That's good!"
Looking at the sparkling Bianhe River and the brightly lit boat pavilions and pavilions on the river, Ouyang Xu squinted his eyes slightly and murmured to himself:
"The Night Banquet Picture, why do they have to get the Night Banquet Picture?"
Three days passed quickly, and the "accident" that Uncle De said still happened. The person he sent to find Ke Xianggong in exchange for the night banquet plan did not rush back to Tokyo at the agreed time. At this time, Zhao Pan'er and others were blocking the road.
There was a painting to be done in front of Ouyang's courtyard. Ouyang Xu was anxiously running around in the house and asked:
"Uncle De, what do you think we should do now?"
Hearing this, Uncle De said with a confident look:
"Officials, please rest assured, I have already arranged other means!"
"Another means?"
Looking at Uncle De who liked to make his own decisions, Ouyang Xu asked angrily:
"What did you do behind my back again?"
"Official, old slave"
At the same time, Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang were sitting under the shade of a tree, guarding the door of Ouyang Xu's house and falling asleep. At this time, He Si came over with a few ruffians and laughed:
"You two little ladies, what are you doing here?"
Hearing He Si's laughter, Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang were startled and woke up from their naps. They looked up at He Si's group. Zhao Pan'er narrowed her big eyes slightly. She always felt that He Si looked familiar, as if they had seen him somewhere.
However, He Si also felt that Zhao Paner looked a bit familiar and couldn't help but ask:
"This little lady looks very familiar to me. Have we met somewhere?"
"Yes!"
Zhao Pan'er finally remembered, she looked at He Si and smiled:
"Aren't you that stinky bitch in the yamen?"
"Oh, she scolded me!"
He Si opened his eyes slightly and looked at his companions who had been following him and said in surprise that he was hired by Uncle De to drive away two women in front of Ouyang Xu's house. He did not expect that one of them would be Zhao Pan'er, taking people's money.
To eliminate the disaster, He Si rolled up his sleeves and called on his companions to drive away the people:
"She still dares to win the game in our pool. Brothers, beat her up!"
"What do you want to do?"
Before the bluffing He Si and his group could take action, Sun Sanniang suddenly stood up from the stone steps, holding Ouyang Xu's broom in all directions. For a moment, it was like a strong wind sweeping away fallen leaves, lifting it horizontally and vertically, and was invincible.
, those gangsters with no professional ethics were so frightened that they ran away. The leader, He Si, ran at the back. He was kicked in the butt by Sun Sanniang and fell to the ground. He suddenly wailed loudly:
"The stinky bitch is beating a man in the street, help me."
Seeing that He Si dared to call her a stinky bitch in the street, Sun Sanniang stepped on his thigh and spanked him with a broom in her hand. Looking at He Si as if he was mourning, Zhao Pan'er knelt down in front of him and asked
:
"Tell me, did the people in the house ask you to come?"
Hearing this, He Si immediately nodded and said unyieldingly:
"Yes, there is a bad old man inside who gave me two dollars to come over. What do you want?"
Even though Zhao Pan'er was extremely disappointed with Ouyang Xu, she never thought that he would collude with local gangsters to deal with her. Thinking of this, she looked at Sun Sanniang and sighed:
"Sanniang, you are right. Ouyang Xu has really changed. Once he becomes an official, his heart will become cruel and his methods will become fiercer!"
After that, she turned to He Si. She had never seen such a cowardly gangster. Zhao Pan'er couldn't help but laugh:
"Then what do you want to do? Are you still looking for trouble?"
"Just wait until I get up, and I'm not done with you!"
Seeing He Si being unable to move under Sun Sanniang's feet, Zhao Pan'er looked at Sun Sanniang, blinked and smiled:
"Sanniang, hit him in the dragon's and tiger's den so that he will never be able to have children in his life!"
"ah?"
"oh oh!"
Hearing what Zhao Pan'er said about the dragon and tiger holes, she would never be able to have children in her life. Sun Sanniang was stunned at first, and then suddenly realized that she made a point of tapping the acupuncture points, and took a big broom and poked He Si's buttocks a few times.
I don't know if some acupuncture point was poked, but He Si screamed. Looking at the look of relief on his face, it didn't seem like he was in pain. Anyway, it was quite strange. The screams made Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang feel evil.
Han, the onlookers nearby were even more eye-opening. It turns out that men can also make such ecstasy screams. It is simply insulting to gentlemen!
Seeing He Si standing upright, Sun Sanniang threw away Ouyang Xu's broom in disgust. She kicked her twice and threatened:
"I have dug into your den, and you will never be able to have a child again in this life!"
"What, I can't have children?"
There are three kinds of unfilial piety, the greatest is not having an offspring. When He Si heard that he would never be able to have children again, He Si was dumbfounded and quickly begged for mercy and shouted:
"Madam, madam, no, I have to give birth to a child. I have to have a child to carry on the family lineage for the He family. My family has only three generations. I beg you, madam!"
Looking at He Si, who was squirming on the ground with his thighs combined like a worm, Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang looked at each other, trying hard to hold back their laughter. Zhao Pan'er pinched his waist with both hands, trying hard to keep his pretty face straight, not letting himself laugh out loud:
"If you want to relieve your acupuncture point, do as I say!"
"Okay, okay, I will listen to my wife. I will do whatever my wife asks me to do!"
He Si nodded hurriedly and said, The world is big today, and it is the biggest issue whether he will be able to have children in the future, even though he has not yet married a wife!
Seeing that He Si, a fool, really believed in the Dragon and Tiger Den, Zhao Pan'er tried her best to keep a pretty face, pointed at Ouyang Xu's yard and told him:
"Take your people and block the front and back doors of his house. You are only allowed in, but not out. You are beating gongs and drums outside the yard while shouting that you will not be able to repay what you borrowed. It is unjust!"
"good!"
He Si nodded hurriedly in response.
Within a moment, He Si and the previous gangsters blocked the front and back doors of Ouyang Xu's house. The two groups of people beat gongs and drums while shouting:
“If you borrow something and don’t repay it, it’s an unforgivable fate!”
Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang sat under the shade of the tree, looking at He Si and others who were shouting with all their strength, Sun Sanniang couldn't help but smile:
"This fat man actually believed that I knew how to acupuncture. Men don't know how to give birth to children. He is such a pig. Hey, who did you learn these scary tricks from?"
"Of course it's Xiao Fan, he likes to scare people the most!"
As he spoke, Zhao Paner took out a gold medal from his arms, touched it, wiped it and said with a smile:
"I don't know how he is doing now or when he will come back. To be honest, I am a little scared of Ouyang Xu when he is not with me!"
"What is there to be afraid of Ouyang Xu?"
Hearing Zhao Paner say that she was a little afraid of Ouyang Xu, Sun Sanniang said in confusion:
"If you hadn't stopped me, I would have rushed into his yard long ago. If he dares to cheat and doesn't return your night banquet picture to you, I will throw him into the Bian River to feed the fish and shrimps!"
"After all, he is Jinke's top talent, third in the first class, and an official. We are just ordinary people. If we really want to be tough, it will only be a few of us who suffer!"
Zhao Paner held the gold medal given to her by Yuan Xudong in her hand and sighed:
"I'm afraid that Ouyang Xu knows someone who is an official. This is the city of Tokyo, under the emperor's feet. If the government comes forward, we women will not be able to defeat them!"
"fine!"
After hearing what Zhao Pan'er said, Sun Sanniang said with a nonchalant smile:
"Master Xiao's father is also an official, a high-ranking official. Didn't he leave a gold medal for you? If you meet an official who wants to make trouble, just take out this gold medal and they will definitely not dare to embarrass us!"
"I hope so!"
Under the scorching sun, He Si and a group of his men beat gongs and drums in front of Ouyang Xu's house and shouted:
“If you borrow something and don’t repay it, it’s an unforgivable fate!”
Zhao Pan'er and Sun Sanniang also took the time to buy some herbal tea and fruits to quench their thirst so that they could continue shouting. The shouts came one after another into the courtyard, and Ouyang Xu said angrily:
"Uncle De, is this your other plan?"
"The old slave is incompetent, the old slave is incompetent!"
Seeing that he had done something wrong again, Ouyang Xu was furious, and Uncle De immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Seeing that Uncle De was like this again, every time he failed to do something, he would say "Old slave is incompetent, old slave is incompetent!" Ouyang Xu was almost furious. He couldn't count on Uncle De, so he thought of a way on his own. It seemed that he was the best in Tokyo.
He couldn't stay any longer. Sooner or later, the Gao family would know about this matter. He had to find a way to be transferred to another place as soon as possible. If he didn't leave, sooner or later, he would be tortured to death by Zhao Pan'er. Thinking of this, his eyes secretly turned fierce, and he looked at the kneeling man.
Uncle De on the ground said:
"We can't let them continue to be so noisy. Uncle De, I'm going to write a letter and you can find a way to help me deliver it. They're blocking the front and back doors, so you can only get out through the dog hole in the yard!"
Hearing this, Uncle De said solemnly:
"Don't worry, officer, I will definitely be able to get out!"
"good!"
At Chi Yanei's house, Chi Yanei, who was idle and bored, was fishing in his yard. Lu Wu was waiting beside him and said:
"In the Yameni, Sister Haohao has gone to the training hall Zhuan Yingchai Pai. I heard that today the Eighth Kings are celebrating their birthdays and are expected to perform a variety of songs and dances in the Yamen Tower."
"Okay, okay!"
Before Lu Wu could finish speaking, Chi Yanei said impatiently:
"You will bring fifty people with you in a while. When she comes on stage, cheer her up and applaud her from the audience. When she finishes singing, give her a basket of money!"
"Yameni, can you send someone else there?"
Lu Wu was reluctant to go and said:
"I can't leave now. We have several carts of new leathers arriving today. I have to go pick them up!"
"New leather?"
Chi Yanei looked at Lu Wu and frowned slightly:
"Shouldn't He Si be in charge of that? Where's He Si? Where did they die?"
"He He."
Seeing Lu Wu's hesitation, Chi Yanei said impatiently:
"What is he? Why don't you tell me quickly?"
"Yanei, do you remember the girl who bullied you on the court last time?"
"Remember, what happened to her?"
"He Si was also bullied by her today. She also has an accomplice who is very powerful and knows acupoints!"
"What?"
After listening to Lu Wu's words, Chi Yanei immediately became energetic and quickly pulled him out to walk out:
"Let's go, take me over and have a look!"
"okay!"
Outside Ouyang Xu's house, He Si and others were still standing there shouting vigorously, "If you borrow money and don't repay it, it's unreasonable!" At this moment, Chi Yanei rushed over, interrupted He Si and asked:
"He Si, what are you doing?"
He Si raised his head and glanced at Chi Yanei, and whispered:
"Can't you see? He's acting as a watchdog!"
"Oh, you also know how to be a guard dog for others?"
Looking at the stupid He Si, Chi Yanei said with hatred:
"That woman asked you to be a watchdog, are you so obedient?"
"if not?"
"Then if she asks you to eat shit, will you eat it too?"
"Eat!"
He Si nodded matter-of-factly. Hearing this, Chi Yanei was startled. He subconsciously took a step back and said with disgust on his face:
"Did you really eat it?"
"Not at all. What I mean is that if she asked me to eat shit, then I would eat shit. But if she didn't ask me to eat it, then I wouldn't have to eat it. Yanei, why should I eat shit?"
"What's this mess?"
Looking at He Si who was talking like a tongue twister, Chi Yanei said impatiently:
"Come back with me quickly, don't embarrass yourself here!"
"You can't leave. If you leave, you won't be able to have children!"
"You have a wife?"
Looking at the fat He Si, Chi Yanei asked in surprise.
"Not yet, they clicked on my dragon and tiger holes. If they don't unblock them, I won't be able to have children in the future!"
"Are you insulting my intelligence?"
Looking at the stupid He Si, Chi Yanei almost died of anger and said:
"You've heard a lot about books, haven't you? She's not an expert. What kind of acupuncture points does she know? Show me where she clicks on you!"
"oh!"
With that said, He Si turned around, raised his butt and pointed at Chi Yanei and said:
"Just the middle part, Yanei, please take a good look at it for me. Why do I feel a little itchy?"
"I'll fuck you!"
Seeing that He Si dared to point his fat butt towards him and say such disgusting words, Chi Yanei went up and kicked He Si to the ground. He then sat directly on He Si and beat and cursed him.
:
"You idiot, you are just insulting my IQ, right? You don't even have a wife. What kind of children do you want? I don't even have children, so you just want to have children?"
"Yanei, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, you don't feel sorry for me, I have to feel sorry for myself!"
As he said this, He Si lay on the ground and let Chi Yanei ride on him to beat and scold him, while still banging his gong and shouting:
“If you borrow something and don’t repay it, it’s an unforgivable fate!”
"His grandma is so angry with me. I can't deal with Du Changfeng. I can't deal with that woman anymore?"
Seeing He Si, he seemed possessed by a demon. Chi Yanei couldn't do anything to him, so he kicked him twice more, then looked at Lu Wu, who had been following him, and ordered:
"Within one stick of incense, I want to know where she lives. Go and check it out for me. Why are you still hanging around?"
"yes!"
“If you borrow something and never repay it, it’s a natural disaster.”
Chi Yanei stood nearby and looked at He Si and others who were playing gongs and drums. He felt inexplicably irritated and couldn't help shouting along with them:
“If you borrow something and don’t repay it, it’s an unforgivable fate!”
On the other side, less than a hundred miles away from the city of Tokyo, a group of people with bright clothes and angry horses, with flags flying, galloped from a distance, raising dust all over the sky. The first people to bear the brunt were Yuan Xudong and Gu Qianfan.
Walking on both sides, horses are galloping and high-spirited. Behind in the middle is a black post car, with dozens of black knights guarding both sides. It is Xiao Qinyan and his party who have returned from ancestor worship and are preparing to go to Beijing to pay homage to the prime minister.
people.
During this time of ancestor worship, Xiao Qinyan had already decided to give all the political resources of the Xiao family to Gu Qianfan to pave the way for him. The family's business and land were handed over to Xiao Wei. Yuan Xudong himself chose the secret power of the Xiao family to hide in the
The secret intelligence organization and black-clothed guards are all orphans that Xiao Qinyan has secretly cultivated for decades. They are loyal to the Xiao family. To use Xiao Qinyan's original words, he, the envoy, is nothing more than an official and an official.
It is a knife used by the Queen to balance the government. If he offends too many people, he will be dismissed by the officials or the Queen as Prime Minister in as little as three to five years and no more than ten years at most, just like the current Ke Xianggong.
The same, so he must pave the way for Gu Qianfan's promotion in the limited time in the future.
When he returned to Beijing this time, he had already reached a settlement with the Lei Company of the Imperial City Division (the immediate boss who wanted to kill Gu Qianfan and the officer in charge of the Imperial City Division), and used the major case in Jiangnan (Zheng Qingtian's secret sea ban) to operate.
Let Gu Qianfan be promoted to the fifth rank at the tender age of 30, wear a silver fish bag, and wear a red official robe. As for Xiao Fan and Xiao Wei, in Xiao Qinyan's plan, the two brothers are responsible for assisting his elder brother Gu Qianfan.
, Gu Qianfan is responsible for protecting his two younger brothers.
I don’t know what Xiao Wei thinks, but Yuan Xudong has other ideas. It’s okay to help Gu Qianfan, as long as Gu Qianfan doesn’t commit suicide. Xiao Qinyan dotes on his eldest son, but Yuan Xudong doesn’t care about him very much. When worshiping his ancestors,
, Gu Qianfan actually said that he wanted to be a good person, and regarded those Qing sects who only read rote books and quoted scriptures as good officials.
The taxes are pitifully low.
The most fucked up part is that these bullshit purists really think they are good officials. It is natural for them not to pay taxes, and it is natural for ordinary people to pay taxes. They are the same party and oppose dissent. They persecute their political opponents to eliminate harm for the people, and others in turn harm them.
They are trying to frame Zhongliang.
The brainwashed Gu Qianfan believed this and joined the Imperial City Division in order to clean up the faction. His hands were stained with blood and he was called "Living Hell". He even dared to say "I want to be a good person" and "kill"
"Those people" are all for the common people of the world, for the Song Dynasty court, etc. Yuan Xudong particularly hates such fools. If you stay with such people, you may one day be killed by him for "righteousness", and you will have no place to reason.
