Although Wang Zixian had already met those few Hu Cao's officials before, and he had also received their overtures on the surface, he would also not refuse the kindness of County Lieutenant Zhao. This person is the predecessor of Hu Cao, who has been with the officials for several years, and has his own majesty and connections. If he can say a few kind words, it will be more convenient for him to act in the future.

Of course, Wang Zixian also has his own way of getting along with his subordinates, and sooner or later he will have to spend some time completely taking these small officials for his own use. After all, they seem to be nothing more than insignificant foreign officials, but when it comes to Cheng Dù, who is familiar with the affairs of Wannian County, or even Cheng Dù, who is familiar with the gossip in private, no one can compare to them. Many of the exiled officials are inherited from their fathers, and the experience accumulated over generations should not be underestimated.

Because of the generosity of Lieutenant Zhao, the prince invited him to sit down in the nearby liquor shop after inviting him to the palace. County Lieutenant Zhao did not refuse, but said that he would call the county lieutenant Cangcao Qian, who was good friends with him: "He has always been a lover of wine, and he finally had the opportunity to satisfy his cravings, but he can't be missing." ”

In the future, when the prince offered this Hu Cao also had many dealings with the county lieutenant Qian, he gladly accepted the kindness of the county lieutenant Zhao. He even gave a cross-handed salute: "Brother Zhao has helped a lot, and he will definitely remember it." "Whether this move is unintentional or intentional, at least he will be more comfortable in the county party of Wannian County.

"You and I are colleagues, so why be so polite?" County Lieutenant Zhao said, smiling and going to find County Lieutenant Qian.

The prince turned around and wanted to go back to the Hucao public house, but when he raised his eyes, he saw the corner of the corridor not far away and turned out of He County. He smiled slightly and bowed his head, but County Lieutenant He just looked at him from a distance, frowning and silent.

Soon it was time to go down, and the prince summoned all the officials of Hu Cao to go to the wine shop for a few drinks. However, after arriving at the wine store, he sat alone in the private room with Zhao County Lieutenant and Qian County Lieutenant, and the officials were in another room. During the banquet, he pushed the cup and changed the lamp without mentioning it, and the county lieutenant Zhao and the county lieutenant Qian also told him something about Wei County Ling and Chen County Cheng, which made him know a little more about these two peaks.

"Chen Shaofu (County Cheng) is indeed a little lonely in temperament, but he is a good person. If he does his job with all his heart and soul and does not make any mistakes, he will not be difficult to get along with. Have you ever seen a young man in the past, he only eats, drinks and has fun, and everything is pushed to Liucao to do, and the Ming Mansion (county order) asks about anything and doesn't know anything...... Alas, at that time we really called the heavens and the earth to be spiritual. finally survived until he was transferred to Beijing as a county magistrate, and Chen Shaofu was already very good in our opinion. ”

"Wei Mingfu (county order) is also a dough-like soft child, and he has always been kind and talkative. There is quite a bit of coldness between him and Chen Shaofu, and he is not as trusting as ordinary Ming Mansion and Shaofu, probably because of the children of the family and the children of the Han family-" After drinking a few glasses of wine, County Lieutenant Qian opened the conversation box and talked endlessly. However, speaking of this, he seemed to suddenly remember that the young county lieutenant Wang in front of him was also a child of the family, and he couldn't help but laugh wryly, "Don't blame for a momentary gaffe, don't blame it." ”

"Brother Qian doesn't have to be restrained, he should drink and drink, and he should say it." Wang Zixian curled the corners of his lips and raised his glass, "I have always liked people with straightforward temperaments like Brother Zhao and Brother Qian, and they are very happy to get along with. Come, come, let's win!! ”

"Drink to win!!" County Lieutenant Qian and County Lieutenant Zhao looked at each other and smiled, relaxed a little more, and raised their glasses and drank them all.

They were drinking the finest wine from the Western Regions today, and if it weren't for the fact that this young man had the heart to pat his chest and say that he was in for a treat, and let them drink it with an open heart, how could they have drunk so happily?! The capital of the county lieutenant is not low, but they still have to support their families and plan for the future, with those meager money, they don't have the opportunity to drink such good wine on weekdays!

So, the prince dedicated Wang Zhiyuan, and instantly left a "hearty" image in the hearts of the two of them. Many children of the family don't care about money, but it is quite rare to be willing to make friends with these little-known people from humble families. What's more, a top family like the Langya Wang clan can't help but be in awe just by mentioning it, but this Wang Langjun is not self-conscious at all?

In the imperial edicts, officials were expected to observe etiquette and refrain from drinking and having fun outside. Otherwise, if those who supervise the imperial history are more serious, they will rarely be impeached and disgraced. However, in order to deal with these imperial histories, the low-ranking officials also came up with a way to change their robes and go out to drink in their regular clothes. The low-level officials in the capital have thousands of people, and when they change their robes and official uniforms, which inspector can recognize them?

Of course, the three princes are no exception. However, although they had already changed their robes, they did not indulge in fine wine. Only an hour later, Lieutenant Zhao and Lieutenant Qian took their leave. Wang Zixian asked the store to give each of them a jar of wine, as well as some delicate snacks and snacks, and personally sent them away.

Then he went to the private room of the servants next door, drank a few glasses of wine with them, and parted with the same joy. At least for the little officials, the young county lieutenant was kind and kind, and treated them with a rare intimacy. As a result, after a drink, the relationship between each other seems to be a lot closer, and the conversation is more casual.

After his colleagues left, Wang Zixian sat alone in the private room and drank some sobering tea, dissipating the wine. This was the first day of his official appearance, and he didn't want to go to King Pu's Mansion to see Li Hui with a drunken body. Of course, it is not appropriate to go back to the vine garden and let Mr. Song and his junior brother He Cheng meet.

Cao Shilang, who had been guarding outside, also relieved some of his cravings, and was drinking happily with the wine jar, when he saw the shopkeeper come over with a wry smile and whispered a few words to him. After hearing this, he didn't care about drinking, and immediately went into the private room to report.

"Ah Lang, Sun Dalang is in the courtyard behind the wine shop, saying that he has something important to report." Yes, this wine shop is one of Sun Rong's industries. The shopkeepers and guys in the liquor store are also their own people, and they are all trained by Cheng Suo. They look thin and thin like ordinary people, and they don't look like big bearded men, and they are suitable for this kind of work.

"Something important?" Wang Zixian raised his eyebrows, "What is the important thing to burn the eyebrows?" He rarely met Sun Rong and Sun Jinniang, and usually only relied on the trilogy to pass on news. If it weren't really an extremely important matter, Sun Rong wouldn't have taken the risk of finding it temporarily. It's just that when he thinks about it, it seems that there hasn't been any emergency happening recently, could it be that he has ignored something?

Of course, whether it matters or not is clear when you hear it. So, Wang Zixian and Cao Shilang followed the store along the secret passage to the backyard of the wine store. Sun Rong was anxiously waiting in the main room, and when he saw him coming, he split his head and said, "Ah Lang, the secret chess of Princess Anxing's mansion has been broken." In the end, she only sent the news that she was in danger, and there was no more whereabouts. She had been working as a rough slave in the kitchen, and the news was all through the kitchen to buy and act quietly. Now the purchasers only inquired that she was no longer in the kitchen. ”

"Not in the kitchen, maybe somewhere else. And don't worry, and then carefully check the recent ...... of Princess Anxing's mansion There may be disposed of slaves. Wang Zixian frowned. treats the meticulous work placed by others, Princess Anxing usually kills her, and occasionally tortures her. However, it has always been possible to find out who died in the princess's mansion. Unless necessary, it is impossible for the princess's mansion to destroy even the appearance and body marks of the slaves.

"That's how I persuaded Jinniang, but that girl somehow suddenly became stubborn. She said that she had always been friends with the dark chess named Ah Yuan, and the two had made an appointment to meet in the future and spend their days together peacefully. Now that something has happened to Ah Yuan, she must not sit idly by—"

Speaking of this, Sun Rong's face darkened, as if there were still some words that he couldn't say anymore. After holding it for a long time, he could only say with a bitter face: "In short, she doesn't want to listen to my advice, she has already prepared wholeheartedly, and wants to enter the mansion of the eldest princess of Anxing...... But that's the Longtan Tiger's Den, how can it be so easy to enter? I, I have only such a sister left, and I still want to see her happily married...... How could you watch her die? ”

"......," the prince frowned, "It's just a little lady's angry words, why do you care so much." Xu was influenced by him and Li Hui, and it sounded like a very ordinary word, which made Sun Rong think a little more. Of course, since men can like men, it is not uncommon for women to like women. It's just that this should be the righteousness of Jinlan, and over-misinterpretation is also suspected of being unfounded.

"If you sue Sù Jinniang, just talk about the matter of Princess Anxing's Mansion and wait and see for a few days, and then mention other things after the news is confirmed. I have other things to entrust to her, that she should attend more feasts, and that she may continue to inquire among the ladies for news. I want to know what has happened recently in the second room of the Yang family. From their actions, it may be inferred how Yang Xianfei intends to act next. Perhaps, it can also be deduced whether the current relationship between Princess Anxing and Concubine Yang Xian is good or bad. It was a matter of great urgency, and she had to do her best. ”

Sun Rong hurriedly agreed, and said worriedly: "Ah Lang, I see that Jinniang has also reached the age when it is time to get married." I think that Xu is because she has too little contact with Xiaolangjun, so she will have confused thoughts. What kind of young man with good character does Ah Lang know? If you look at each other, you can't say that you will be my sister-in-law in the future? ”

"It's just a young man with a good character, but it's not worthy of Jinniang." Wang Zixian said unhurriedly, "Don't worry, I have always regarded her as my own sister, and I will definitely pay more attention to her." If someone who is not good enough comes to ask to marry Jinniang, I will definitely not agree. You don't want to mess up, and you want to see if Jinniang will be comfortable in the future. ”

"Ah Lang is right......" Sun Rong nodded again and again when he heard this.

"You don't have to just care about Jinniang. Seeing that you are about to reach the crown, if you don't make a marriage earlier, will you still wait for the official media to come to your door to match you with a lady at will? Wang Zixian suddenly felt that as a conscientious master, he really had too many affairs to take care of. Originally, this kind of marriage should have been handled by an "insider", where did he have to ask? It's a pity that his "insider" is still too busy, and he doesn't have any chance to meddle in the other party's internal affairs.

Hearing this, Sun Rong's face turned red, and he sighed for a long time, and said, "I'...... I have already entrusted the marriage to Fu's mother. Fu's mother is an elder, and it should be Fu's mother who is in charge...... And if I wasn't someone who knew the roots, I wouldn't have been able to live together with peace of mind. The implication is that he has taken a fancy to his family, and quietly asked the old man's mother Arnold to say goodbye.

is talking about the little ladies of the group of tribal families. These little ladies are all brought up by the old Fu Mother Arnold, and their personalities are cheerful and neat, both literate and skilled, and they are many times stronger than ordinary little ladies. The dark chess Ah Yuan that Fang just mentioned is one of them.

It's just that among the families who follow him, Lang Jun is the majority, and the little lady is quite rare, and they are all the meat of the old Fu Mother Arnold's heart. Many of the parts have secretly liked the little lady, but they haven't won the favor of the beautiful woman yet, so they don't dare to act rashly. Now Sun Rong has cleverly entrusted the old man's mother Arnold, who is about to "snatch food from the tiger's mouth", and I don't know how the rest of the people who have not yet started a family will feel in their hearts.

Sure enough, clever people are clever in everything they do, and—

The prince glanced at Cao Shilang, who had a pair of tiger eyes: If you are not clever enough, you are destined to be one step behind even marrying a lady.

At this time, Cao Shilang couldn't care about his own Ah Lang's presence, and he couldn't suppress his horror anymore: "You...... You, you say! Which one do you fancy?! If...... If...... From now on, I will cut ties with you!! ”

"What a forgetful bastard!" Sun Rong couldn't help but laugh and scolded, "Don't worry! Who is hidden in your heart, can I not know? I have another person in mind!! However, even if I don't like it, it doesn't mean that others won't be tempted! You'd better hurry up and get married sooner! ”

Cao Shilang immediately snorted and pounced in front of Wang Zixian, his eyes shining: "Ah Lang is the master of so-and-so!" ”

"......" is such a burly bearded man, with bright eyes, it is really unbearable to look at directly. Wang Zixian couldn't help but turn his face sideways and sighed: "You go back and tell Mother Fu that she will make the decision for you." ”

Cao Shilang suddenly burst into laughter.
