Chapter 233 The Autumn Meeting in the Plum Garden (Part 2)
Lin Zhengu's eyes became colder, and he patted Luo Zhirong's shoulder and said: "You and I are close friends, and I won't make it difficult for you. Although he doesn't know how to do things, I can give him a chance, and tomorrow's auction can
Let him participate, but you also understand that this is my rule, and other than that, I will not give him any preferential treatment."
Luo Zhirong could only nodded and came back to talk to Song Zheng.
Song Zheng didn't say much. He wanted to invite Lin Zhengu to make a master of this level. If you can afford the price, the other party will refine it for you. You have to build a good relationship first. If you have the right temper, the other party will
Consider whether I can do this for you.
Of course, the money that should be given must not be less.
"Let's talk about the auction tomorrow."
Song Zheng was not short of money during this period, but he had just seen that the people who came to attend the Meiyuan Autumn Party were all ancient aristocratic families, or well-known sects of the Hongwu Dynasty, and they were also not short of money.
The dinner was really good, the ingredients were very fresh, the cooking was quite good, and the spiritual wine that went with it had been stored in the cellar for thirty years, which is also very rare.
But for Song Zheng, it seems a bit ordinary. His mouth has been spoiled by Miao Yun'er. As for spiritual wine, he has drunk many kinds of extremely precious ones before, most recently Baihua Zhenjiang.
But for others, this is real wine and food, delicacies that cannot be eaten in the capital.
Their compliments were sincere. The atmosphere at the dinner was lively and everyone drank happily. Lin Zhengu was so excited that he even pulled out his sword, played it and sang.
The guests were also very happy. They all knew that Lin Zhengu had a lot of "good things" hidden away. Only when he was happy would he take them out and show them. Tomorrow's auction would bring unexpected surprises.
But Song Zheng was a little out of tune with the whole lively atmosphere. He couldn't get excited, and besides, he would probably come back empty-handed this time, and of course he didn't have much of a smile on his face.
Lin Zhengu was watching from above, his eyes casually glanced at Song Zheng, and a hint of displeasure drifted through his heart. He felt that this guy was not only ignorant, but also very disappointing.
The whole hall is full of guests laughing and laughing, but you are the only one sitting there with a cold face. Why do you think I have neglected you? Back then, I didn’t even pay for the late emperor’s debt. Who are you? If you don’t look at Luo Zhirong’s face,
You can't even get through the door.
But the dissatisfaction in his heart was only in his heart. After all, he wanted to give Luo Zhirong face, so he did not break out on the spot.
There were many people with bright eyebrows among the guests, and they had naturally noticed that Master Lin was dissatisfied with Song Zheng. They also secretly blamed Master Song, please don't do bad things. Everyone tried their best to make Master Lin feel comfortable.
The harvest season is just around the corner. If you do something bad, everyone's efforts will be in vain.
But no one dared to speak out against Song Zheng. Mr. Song was Mr. Song after all. Lin Zhengu didn’t have to buy it. They didn’t have the qualifications. Many people were still thinking about what to do on their way home after the Meiyuan Autumn Meeting was over.
Let's talk to Mr. Song. If we can establish a friendship, this trip will be fruitful.
But it doesn't work now. Everyone can see that Master Lin doesn't like Song Zheng very much. In the past, he would have been angered by Master Lin.
Behind Song Zheng sat two ancestors, and behind them were Shi Zhonghe, Liu Chengfei, Li Sanyan and the others. Liu Chengfei also felt that there was nothing delicious, so he put down his chopsticks after a few bites and said softly: "What a waste of natural resources."
"Isn't it delicious? I think it's delicious." Shi Zhonghe filled his mouth and his voice was unclear.
Liu Chengfei smiled and said, "If you find a chance, I'll cook it for you."
"Okay." Shi Zhonghe would never refuse such an invitation.
Finally the banquet ended, Lin Zhengu got drunk, apologized and left. His disciples took the place of their master to see off the guests, and one by one they told everyone with a smile: "Senior Zhou, don't forget at three o'clock tomorrow morning.
Already."
"Senior Brother Bao, I will help you get a good seat tomorrow."
It was the turn of Song Zheng and his group, and it was the direct disciple who led them in. He said very attentively: "Master Song, I will take you back."
He led the way first, holding a lantern lit by Yuanyu in his hand, and said in his mouth: "Master's temper is like that. When the late emperor was still alive, he wanted to ask Master to refine a first-order spirit for him.
The treasure was given to his most beloved concubine at that time as a 23rd birthday gift.
However, the emperor did not come in person. He only sent a eunuch to come with the imperial edict. The master did not even open the door of Shenzhuo Palace. The eunuch was also anxious and went back to tell the late emperor more jealously. The late emperor was angry, but he
Due to his reputation, he was not immediately punished.
But he didn't expect that the concubine would later be involved in a major rebellion, and everyone in the family was killed. She was thrown into the cold palace overnight. The late emperor was severely hit by this, and he died not long after.
In fact, if these changes had not occurred, I am afraid that Master would have been convicted in the end and fled the Hongwu Celestial Empire."
Song Zheng looked at this direct disciple in a different light: There is such a master, but he does not have his eyes above the top. Instead, he always defends the master and eliminates the negative influence on him. It is really not easy.
He sent him off specifically because he wanted to tell Song Zheng that Lin Zhengu was not targeting him specifically, but because of his personality, he treated the emperor so "willfully" back then.
"Sir, we're here. I'll send it here. Don't forget tomorrow morning at three o'clock." He said goodbye with a smile. Song Zheng nodded: "Thank you."
Luo Zhirong was also a little worried and tried to persuade him: "Brother Lin is indeed not targeting you. He just has that temper. You don't know how much infamy this character has brought him in these years."
Song Zheng waved his hand indifferently: "It's okay."
He also has his own magnanimity and freedom. After all, he is not "sincere" enough. Now that he knows Lin Zhengu has this temperament, he has no intention of "cooperating" at all, so he can't blame others for being dissatisfied.
But he has his own ideas and persistence. He wants to find another way.
Separating from Luo Zhirong, Li Sanyan came in excitedly and said: "Sir, I have a solution."
"any solution?"
"This is a way to force Lin Zhengu to submit." Li Sanyan said: "My subordinates ordered people to check yesterday. There is no record of the land deeds of the Shenzhuo Palace and the Shenzhuo Lower Court in the Yamen. As long as we are willing, a document will suffice.
Let the people from the state government come over and demolish this god-made palace of his!"
Song Zheng smiled bitterly, waved his hand and said: "Don't think about these crooked ways. If you do this, how can I explain to Luo Zhirong?"
Li San scratched his head and said, "What good idea can you do, sir?"
"Yes, but I haven't figured it out yet." Song Zheng was determined.
Li Sanyan: "..."
Only Shi Zhonghe asked Liu Chengfei carelessly: "You said you would prepare delicious food for me. When will it be cooked? I'm a little hungry."
Liu Chengfei glanced at her in surprise: "You just ate so much..."
"Not too much, not too much." Shi Zhonghe waved his hand: "Those people bullied us and gave us too little food. I didn't eat enough at all." Song Zheng smiled and said: "Fortunately, Bingpo Secret Realm is said to be very rich.
, otherwise Han Jiujiang will be destitute by you."
Shi Zhongheyuan blushed and did not dare to respond to the adult's joke. He just urged Liu Chengfei: "Why don't you make some now? I don't think anyone has eaten enough."
"You want to eat it yourself, don't use us as an excuse." Mr. Song was still sharp and merciless.
Liu Chengfei spread her hands: "Even if I want to do it, but there are no ingredients, it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice."
Shi Zhonghe waved his hands carelessly: "Simple." Her figure sank into the ground, and a moment later various ingredients were brought up. Liu Chengfei opened his mouth slightly, looking at the huge pieces of wild beast meat: "You
, where did you get it?”
"There are still a lot of things in the kitchen of Shenzhuo Palace. I guess they won't be able to finish them all. Let's help them with some of them to avoid spoilage and waste."
Everyone was speechless for a while. The wild beast was extremely powerful. Its energy remained for a long time after death, and its body did not decay, even for several months.
Li Sanyan smiled evilly: "Eat! Why not eat."
Liu Chengfei nodded: "Wait a moment, it will be fine soon."
She put out a cauldron and started cooking. Song Zheng actually remembered that Liu Shiyuan had boasted to him that his daughter's elixir was the best in Yuzhou, so he took the opportunity to try it. If it was really good, at least in the future.
I don’t know how to eat without knowing the taste.
But in this case... Liu Chengfei is responsible for cooking and making tea for herself, while the dignified Yuzhou Mine Supervisor does the work of her own maid.
He shook his head secretly and criticized himself: It's too corrupt! Then he continued to be so corrupt with peace of mind.
It only took half an hour for a table of sumptuous alchemy to be served. Song Zheng took out the Baihua Wine and opened it. The aroma of wine and meat filled the courtyard, and Song Zheng also moved his index finger.
A strange sound of "Gulu" came, and Shi Zhonghe quickly covered his stomach and shook his head: "It's not me, it's really not me..."
She looked at Song Zheng eagerly, and she didn't dare to eat until the master opened his mouth.
Song Zheng smiled slightly and picked up the chopsticks: "Let's get started."
He picked up a chopstick and before he put it into his mouth, Shi Zhonghe, who couldn't hold it anymore, rushed forward with a roar. Song Zheng couldn't help but smile. He put the piece of wild beast meat into his mouth and chewed it carefully.
He nodded in approval: "It's indeed good. Your father is not exaggerating. Your level is ranked first in the entire Yuzhou."
Liu Chengfei still has the image of a refreshing eldest lady from a family, but when Song Zheng praised her like this, she felt a little proud and sweetly happy.
This extra meal was eaten in a sneaky way, but Song Zheng was unusually full. But it was still far behind compared to the time in Huangtai Castle where everyone had to fill up their bellies with every meal.
As for Shi Zhonghe sneaking into the kitchen of Shenzhuang Palace... He didn't care whether Lin Zhengu noticed it. He shouldn't gain anything from tomorrow's auction. But he had already spent more than a day and Lin Zhengu had no idea.
Gu's temper was understood and he decided to make the next plan.
He was sitting on the roof at this time, stood up, stretched out, and said loudly: "It's simple and cramped, it's not a place for people to live." Then he raised his hand and waved it away, and there was a star shining brightly in the night sky.
Falling from the sky, it suddenly became extremely huge when it landed on the ground, the light expanded, and a luxurious palace appeared in it.
