Although he was a little puzzled, Pei Yuan still had to go back when his own minister was looking for him. He stood up, cupped his hands towards Zhu Man, and said: "Brother Zhu, I have to go when the official summons me. Pei will go back to the Ministry of Rites first."
Okay, let’s talk about it later.”
Zhu Man sat carelessly on the chair and did not even stand up. He just grinned at Pei Yuan and said, "Servant Pei, next time you are in this hall, I will not talk to you."
A smile appeared on Pei Yuan's face, and then he said, "Next time, let's chat on the Qinhuai River Boat."
Zhu Man then nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "That's more or less the same. Without you Southern Dynasty officials to take care of them, all those chicken wives on the Qinhuai River would be doing business but not selling themselves!"
"Players and singers are really annoying."
Pei Yuan always had a polite smile on his face and walked out of the Ministry of Rites Hall. As soon as he walked out, he frowned, looked at the official of the Ministry of Rites who called him out, and asked with a frown: "Why are you so anxious about something, sir?
I have been struggling with him for several days, and I am about to let go when I see this envoy!"
The official of the Ministry of Rites lowered his head slightly and said, "Sir, my subordinates don't know. I only know that Zhou Shangshu is very anxious and wants you to go back to the ministry immediately."
Pei Yuan then nodded and said angrily: "I'll go back as soon as I can, but if there's anything wrong with these Qi people, please don't blame me!"
At this point, he was about to get on the sedan when he remembered something and ordered: "Let Mr. Xu from the Host and Guest Department come over to entertain these Qi people, try to do the best, and don't embarrass the court or your majesty."
The official from the Ministry of Etiquette nodded and said, "Yes."
Pei Yuan nodded. He was about to get on the sedan when he saw a familiar figure appearing in front of the guild hall from a distance.
However, because the distance was too far, and because Minister Pei was short-sighted and could not see clearly, he did not get off the sedan, but got on the sedan to return to the Ministry of Ceremonies.
Mr. Shen on the other side was already standing near the entrance of the club.
Next to him, stood the head of the Host and Guest Department of the Ministry of Etiquette. He bowed his head slightly to Shen Yi and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Shen, this official is really scared about this matter. If the court investigates it and traces it to this official..."
"Then the sky is really falling."
Shen Yi glanced back at the forty-year-old director of the Ministry of Etiquette, and said impatiently: "I've made it clear to you since last night. As long as you issue a warrant and let my people enter the guild hall, I will never be implicated.
On your head, you nodded last night, why are you regretting it now?"
"It's not about regretting, it's not about regretting..."
This man is half a "Zhang Party" from the old days and is very familiar with Zhang Jian, but he is very timid and refuses to accept what he promised yesterday.
Seeing his mother-in-law and mother-in-law, Shen Yi pulled him to the side under a big tree and whispered: "Master Zou, listen carefully, no matter who is implicated in this matter, you will not be implicated. If the court really investigates the responsibility,
, I’ll help you carry it down!”
The boss named Zou was still submissive and refused to tell the truth.
Shen Yi finally became completely impatient.
He glared at Chief Zou angrily and shouted: "No wonder you are a disciple of Prime Minister Zhang and have been an official for nearly twenty years. You are still the chief of Qingshui Yamen like the Host and Guest Department. You really have no courage and responsibility!"
After saying this, Shen Yi fumbled around in his arms for a while, took out a sign, threw it in front of Chief Zou, and shouted in a low voice: "Take it and see!"
Chief Zou was stunned for a moment, took the sign with both hands, looked at it for a moment, then knelt down with a plop, held the sign with two trembling hands, and handed it back to Shen Yi: "I...kowtow to my emperor..."
"Okay, okay, don't kneel down."
Mr. Shen said coldly: "As soon as this sign comes out, even if you had credit for this trip, most of it will be lost now. Do you understand?"
Chief Zou knelt on the ground, lowered his head, and gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Shen, I am willing to come into the guild hall in person and do things for you!"
"Please allow Mr. Shen to be demoted and make up for his past mistakes!"
Shen Yi glanced at him and refused: "You are not needed. It would not be good for someone with official status to come forward in this matter."
Chief Zou continued: "This official can speak nonsense..."
"That doesn't require you."
Chief Zou looked at Shen Yi and wanted to speak again. Shen Yi finally lost his patience and said: "Okay, you have seen the gold medal thing. I won't tell outsiders. You go and issue the warrant. Don't
It’s so annoying.”
Director Zou breathed a sigh of relief, took out the entry and exit warrant that had already been opened from his sleeve, handed it to Shen Yi, and said: "Mr. Shen, please take a look, I have already opened it."
Shen Yi took it and handed it to Jiang Sheng, who had been following him nearby, and asked Jiang Sheng to take it to do some work. Then he turned to look at the middle-aged man in front of him and said helplessly: "You, you, you are so slippery.
"
Director Zou lowered his head and said: "Mr. Shen won a prize and was demoted... He has no connections and no background. In official circles, the only word left is caution."
As he said that, he cautiously raised his head and looked at Shen Yi: "If Mr. Shen doesn't mind, I will be willing to..."
This is the rhythm of bowing before bowing.
Mr. Shen directly interrupted his casting, waved his hand and said: "Master Zou, I have serious things to do now, and I don't have time to think about anything else. Let's talk about your matters later."
Mr. Zou nodded cautiously.
However, when he looked up at the young man in front of him, his eyes were still full of envy.
The fourth grade of the current dynasty...
He has been in the Ministry of Etiquette for so many years, and he is still a sixth-rank chief, and he is still in a yamen like the Host and Guest Department, which does not have much oil and gas.
And his future may lie with this young man in front of him.
After getting the note to enter and leave the club, a middle-aged man in his thirties soon entered the club with the note and found Zhu Man who was taking a nap.
With a smile on his face, the middle-aged man said: "Dear envoy, my master has built a boat on the Qinhuai River and asked me to come and invite all the envoys to come over."
Zhu Man raised his head and glanced at the sky outside. It was still broad daylight. He frowned and said, "Didn't you say at night? In broad daylight, there are girls in your Qinhuai River?"
"have."
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Your Majesty does not know that the top girls on the Qinhuai River are only available during the day. At night, they are snatched away by the nobles of the clan, and they are never seen again.
."
"Your envoy also knows that my master's status in the court is not high."
Zhu Man nodded and smiled broadly.
"Okay, I'll go and see what the top girl from the Qinhuai River looks like."
So, a group of about ten envoys from the Northern Qi Dynasty happily followed the middle-aged man out of the door and ran towards the Qinhuai River.
…
On the banks of the Qinhuai River, the Eighteen Towers.
On the second floor of the 18th sub-building, Mr. Shen was sitting by the window drinking tea. Jiang Sheng carefully opened the door and came to Shen Yi. He lowered his head and said, "Master, those Qi people have already entered the painting.
"
Mr. Shen nodded calmly and said calmly: "Then we will do as we said before and drug these Qi people."
Having said this, Shen Yi paused and asked curiously: "By the way, does the medicine I asked you to find have any effect? Don't waste all my efforts."
"Don't worry, sir."
Jiang Sheng said with a smile: "The villain has been looking for two or three days before he found the good medicine. It seems to have been refined by a group of Taoist priests. In the early years, it was used as a tribute medicine, but I heard that the medicine was too powerful. Later, the palace
You are not allowed in."
Jiang Sheng paused and continued: "If you eat too much of this thing, you will become irritable and unbearable..."
Shen Yi nodded.
"Okay then, go ahead and do it."
He narrowed his eyes and said, "Remember, after giving them medicine, try to take away all their clothes and then dock the boat."
Master Shen is very considerate.
"These barbarians are afraid of water. Don't drown them."
"After they docked, they set fire to the boat and forced them ashore."
Master Shen said calmly.
"Let the men, women, and children along the Qinhuai River see these Zhuli barbarians."
