Chapter 621: Zhang Liang, the tongue-twisting star, begins to act
With the Yang Wenqian incident settled, everyone in the East Palace let out a long sigh of relief.
Although everyone was demoted one level at a time, and their salary was reduced for a year, it seemed that the loss was heavy. But as the saying goes, happiness comes from comparison, they and the two unlucky guys Wang Gui and Wei Ting
In comparison, it's nothing. If compared with Xu Shimu, the guy who dances the most, they can even be said to have made a fortune!
At least everyone is downgraded, but at least their lives are safe, and there are still so many things to take care of. The most important thing is...
For many people, this loss has already been covered!
"Your Highness, please!"
In the Jiade Hall of the East Palace, General Yunhui Tang Xianzheng stood in the middle of the hall and spoke righteously.
"This time His Highness has to escape from prison, of course because His Highness has achieved great prosperity, but the Feng De Yi Feng Prime Minister also contributed a lot. If His Highness has no expression, it will definitely make the government and the public think that His Highness is cold and cold..."
…”
"Tang Qing, I understand what you mean!"
Li Jiancheng, who survived the catastrophe, sat in his seat with an ugly face and reluctantly waved his hand.
"Tell me directly, how should I reward Feng De Yi and Feng Qing for his loyalty and give him some gold beads?"
"Your Highness, you must not do this!"
Tang Xian stood up, with a righteous look on his face, and there was a faint golden light flowing between his words.
"His Royal Highness is the Crown Prince, and the Prime Minister is a minister. If the news of the King using money to bribe his ministers spreads, people will laugh at him. Besides, the Prime Minister Feng De Yi supports His Highness for the sake of the stability of the Tang Dynasty.
A public spirit cannot be bought with personal gain."
As he said that, Tang Xian clasped his hands and bowed down.
"I think that Your Highness should invite a saint to be granted the title of Prime Minister in the name of his hard work and meritorious service. He will be granted the title of Duke of the country, and the right servant of the minister will shoot!"
After hearing Tang Xian's words, many officials in the palace, such as Xiao Deyan, Ouyang Xun, Chen Ziliang, Wang Hao and many others looked at Tang Xian almost at the same time and looked at something wrong.
"There is no problem in granting a title to the Duke of the State, but to be granted the title of Minister of the Right Servant is a bit excessive, right?"
At this time, Li Jiancheng had no idea why Tang Xian said this. He was still thinking carefully about the pros and cons of this suggestion.
"After all, the current right servant is Xiao Yu and Xiao Qing. If you want to replace him, I'm afraid Aye won't agree!"
"Your Highness, please!"
Tang Xian continued to speak, and a faint golden color could be seen in his mouth.
"Zuopu She has repeatedly written to Prime Minister Pei recently, but the saint has always refused. If Your Highness does not write to invite Prime Minister Pei to be Sikong, then Prime Minister Xiao can take the throne of Zuo Pushe, and the Prime Minister can take the throne of Right Pushe!"
"
“It’s not good to do this!”
After hearing Tang Xian's words, Li Jiancheng still felt a little hesitant.
"Isn't this tantamount to making Pei Xiang a stranger? Pei Xiang has always been friendly to Gu..."
"otherwise!"
Tang Xian straightened up, with a confident look on his face.
"Prime Minister Pei is already old, and this move is just to free him from the burden of work. If His Highness is worried that Prime Minister Pei's power will be neglected, he might as well propose to the saint that the Shangshu Province send a Yuanwailang to Prime Minister Pei's house every day.
On duty, in this way, although Prime Minister Pei does not have the name of Zuopushe, he has the actual status of being a minister, which can be said to be the best of both worlds!"
After hearing Tang Xian's suggestion, Li Jiancheng thought about it seriously. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what the other party said was indeed very reasonable. In this way, he had actually given another one of his own to the Shangshu Province to be granted the title of De.
Yi can greatly weaken the power of the younger brother of Shangshuling.
While he was pondering, the officials below, such as Xiao Deyan, Ouyang Xun, Chen Ziliang, Wang Hao and a large group of people had already come out of the queue, clasping their hands and cheering in unison.
"Your Highness, Tang Yunhui's suggestion is very pertinent, and I second it!"
"..."
An hour later, Tang Xian, General Yunhui with a loyal look on his face, left the gate of the East Palace. After bidding farewell to a group of colleagues with a calm expression, he got into a carriage with a Chinese character on it and left in a hurry.
Outer Imperial City.
Half an hour later, the carriage arrived at Pingkangfang Zhongqu. Tang Xian, who had changed his clothes, stepped out of the carriage, waved to the coachman and said casually.
"I still have something to do, please go back first!"
"yes!"
The coachman seemed to be accustomed to Tang Xian's behavior. After he agreed, he drove away.
Tang Xian stood there, straightened his clothes a little, and looked left and right with vigilant eyes. After making sure there was nothing unusual, he walked into a small courtyard next to him.
A few minutes later, Zhang Liang, the Curly Tongue Star Lord, walked out of the small courtyard with a baggage on his back. He followed the familiar streets and arrived at the door of a flower building in Zhongqu.
"Hey, isn't this Zhang Lang?"
After seeing Zhang Liang appear, Hualou's fake mother, a middle-aged woman in her thirties, immediately came out with a smile on her face.
"Please come inside quickly, my Qiniang Xiulan has been waiting for you..."
"Uh! Aunt Li, it's not that I don't want to see Xiulan. It's because my salary hasn't come down yet, and Xiulan's hair is... so..."
After hearing what the woman said, Zhang Liang's face instantly showed a hint of embarrassment. Then he looked left and right and whispered to the woman.
"I'm a little shy in my pocket, so I'd better trouble Aunt Li to invite the Fourth Lady to accompany me!"
"Although my fourth mother also has a good color..."
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, the middle-aged woman suddenly felt a little surprised.
"But she does have some oral problems. Zhang Lang, didn't you say in the past that you got tired of her when you saw her? Why are you..."
Having said this, Aunt Li seemed to understand something, and then said with a serious face.
"Mr. Zhang, although I, Lian Yi Ju, are not a prestigious place, I will never tolerate any of you gentlemen wantonly insulting my wives. No matter it is the fourth lady or the seventh lady, I will treat them as my concubine."
Just like my biological daughter..."
"Madam, don't talk nonsense!"
After hearing Aunt Li's words, Zhang Liang immediately reached out and blocked the other person's mouth. Then he carefully looked around and found that no one was paying attention, and then whispered.
"I, Mr. Zhang, have come to your place not once or twice, Mrs. Li. When did Mr. Zhang take out his anger on all the ladies? Didn't Mr. Zhang make it clear to you? Now that we don't have money, we just
It’s enough to keep the fourth lady’s head all night…”
"real?"
Aunt Li looked at Zhang Liang doubtfully.
"Zhang Lang, didn't you cheat on me?"
"Of course not..."
Zhang Liang said with an oath pointing to the sky.
"If you don't believe me, how about you, eldest lady, come to the fourth lady's room tonight and have a drink with me?"
"spit!"
Aunt Li glanced sideways at Zhang Liang and spat lightly.
"You want me to stay with you, but Zhang Lang, you can't do it just because you have money..."
After making a fuss for a while, Aunt Li agreed to Zhang Liang's request and personally took Zhang Liang to a separate room on the flower floor and arranged for him to sit down at a table.
"Zhang Lang, please wait a moment, the fourth lady will be here in a moment!"
"Okay! I know..."
Zhang Liang tilted his head and said to Aunt Li with a smile.
"Madam, are you really not going to stay and see if someone will abuse the fourth lady?"
"spit!"
After spitting at Zhang Liang again, Aunt Li left in a timid tone.
After Aunt Li disappeared, Zhang Liang immediately took off the baggage on his back and took out a statue of a god wearing armor. The statue had an unrecognizable face, but the tongue in its mouth was very obvious.
Zhang Liang got up and looked around the room, chose a clean and ventilated place and placed the statue on it. He clasped his hands together and bowed towards the statue.
"Whether it works or not depends on this step!"
"Zhang... Zhang... Zhang Lang... Jun..."
Just when Zhang Liang was bowing to the statue, a timid and stuttering voice came from behind him.
"The slave... the slave family... is here...!"
"Oh! The Fourth Lady is here."
Zhang Liang turned his head with a smile, looked at the beautiful woman holding the pipa in front of him, and said gently.
"Please sit down!"
"Thank you... thank you for sitting down!"
Seemingly seeing that the man in front of her who once disliked her did not make the same sarcastic remarks as last time, the woman in front of her was somewhat relieved. She held her pipa in her arms and saluted him, and timidly sat down on the seat.
"Fourth Lady, don't worry. I really don't have any bad intentions when I come to you today."
Looking at the woman in front of him, Zhang Liang smiled slightly and activated his talent of 'tongue as sharp as yellow'.
"Fourth Lady, don't be nervous, let me play a song for you first!"
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, the originally very nervous woman miraculously relaxed. She pressed her hand on the pipa and asked.
"Then Zhang Lang, what...what kind of music do you want to listen to?"
"Whatever you want!"
Zhang Liang waved his hand, and a golden light appeared on the tip of his tongue.
"Today we don't talk about anything else, Fourth Lady, just play whatever you think suits the occasion!"
"good!"
The fourth lady agreed, then thought for a moment, then flicked her fingers.
After the music started playing, Zhang Liang took out a box of sandalwood from his bag again, then stood up and looked around, took the incense burner next to him and placed it in front of the statue he had brought with him.
Three sticks of incense were lit on the altar, and the statue of the god was lit respectfully.
The fourth lady playing the piano looked at Zhang Liang's series of actions with a confused look on her face...
She is not too young, and although she has a stuttering problem when she is nervous, she has many fewer patrons than other female brothers and sisters, but she still stays in the flower house of Zhongqu.
I have been working here for several years, and I am quite knowledgeable!
But this was really the first time she had seen such a benefactor who brought his own idol to burn incense in the flower house.
So she couldn't help but asked curiously while playing the piano.
"Zhang Langjun, what...are you doing?"
"This..."
Zhang Liang pointed to the statue on one side and said mysteriously.
"This is a statue that a certain person made for a certain person by an expert. It can directly contact Lord Curly Tongue Star in the heaven... By the way, Fourth Lady, do you know what Lord Jull Tongue Star does?"
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, the Fourth Lady silently shook her head.
"have no idea!"
"This Lord Curling Tongue is a star in the sky, specializing in the power of tongue..."
Zhang Liang walked to Si Niangzi and sat down. He activated his talent of 'tongue as sharp as yellow' and whispered in her ear.
"If it's someone he likes, he'll make them articulate, speak well, and avoid legal trouble. But if it's someone he doesn't like, they'll be just like you, Fourth Lady, clumsy-tongued, boring, and annoying from time to time.
There is right and wrong in words..."
"ah!"
Before he finished speaking, the Fourth Lady had already screamed out in surprise, stopped playing the pipa in her hands, and turned to look at him with a horrified expression.
"Zhang Langjun, what you said is true...really?"
Before Zhang Liang could speak, he heard the door being pushed open with a bang, revealing Aunt Li's menacing figure.
"Zhang Lang, didn't I tell you that we can't..."
The next moment, Aunt Li looked at Zhang Liang and Si Niangzi who were sitting upright, and blinked silently.
