What is the situation, the two scholars in the hall are in a hurry, and they are actually here to see the boy who is called the lower official? The sedan chair drivers naturally didn't know which way Liu Zuochen was, and they were all surprised.

"Lord Xiao Liu, you are really polite, this ......, hehe......"

He had never put down his body to meet a low-level official, and he was short of words even on how to socialize, and Luo Jianye rubbed his hands awkwardly, looking very at a loss, which made the sedan chair drivers even more confused, and looked at each other dumbfounded.

"Liu Shilang, is it convenient to talk about things?" Hou Jianbin is also anxious in his heart, and he will finish talking about the matter as soon as possible, no matter how he says it, it is also a matter of losing his identity, presumably there is no need to wait until it gets dark, and the officialdom in Kyoto will be boiling, just look at the people watching intently on both sides of the street, you can guess.

"Convenient, convenient! The two Shangshu lords are in the house, please. ”

There was an unfamiliar court official visiting, and it was naturally inconvenient for Lao Liu Tou to show up, and he was still thinking in his heart, what did the two Shangshu do with Zuo Chen at this time?

The guest of honour sat in the foyer, and the conversation went straight to the point.

"Liu Shilang, I asked about the official at noon, and I already have an eyebrow. We Mingren don't talk darkly, and Lord Luo is also trying to fill the hole in the account of the upper household department, and he is already in a hurry. After Hou Jianbin finished speaking, he picked up the brewed tea, which was a little hot, frowned and put it on the coffee table again.

"Lord Hou, are you talking about the restaurant?"

"Hmm!"

Hou Jianbin raised his eyebrows and glanced at Liu Zuochen, and said in his heart, didn't you kid ask knowingly? Luo Jianye didn't think so, although he had already guessed a few points after listening to Liu Zuochen's question, he was still worried that Liu Zuochen would change his hexagram, and his heart was pounding, and he couldn't help but look at Liu Zuochen's gaze, which was pitiful!

"Lord Hou, please forgive your remarks......"

"How?" Hou Jianbin, who was suddenly shocked, couldn't help but panic at this time, this, it was fine at noon, is it about to change the hexagram?

Luo Jianye was even more unbearable, so shocked that his heart felt like it was jumping to his throat, and in an instant, his old face turned red, and he almost fell to the ground from the chair, his hands trembling and he couldn't hold the cup steadily.

"Xiaguan this ......, this... Back home... In total, the quicksilver is not enough. ”

"Ah......" The eyeballs bulged out far away, and with a little force, it is estimated that there is a real possibility of falling out, Hou Jianbin knew in his heart that this kid began to take advantage of the fire to rob, and he got up from his seat in anger, seeing Luo Jianye's dead gray face, his heart suddenly softened, "Poor... How much worse? ”

Everyone knows that 500,000 taels of silver is the hole in the account of the household, and the filling of the vacancy must be completed before dark. How can a generation of kings fool their courtiers? Obviously, it is absolutely impossible, otherwise the adults in the court class will not turn against the sky?

Luo Jianye, who couldn't stop praying secretly, muttered in his heart, little ancestor! Don't open your mouth, the difference in this amount is too big, your own 180,000 taels of silver, but you have to pour out your pockets, thinking that the days after that are not a little reliable, and your heart is even more uncomfortable like dripping blood. How can this make people live, and how can people live this?

Liu ...... Squire, you should say it quickly! "Hou Jianbin is already impatient.

It's not that Liu Zuochen doesn't want to say it, but he thinks about how much black he is in his heart? Looking at Luo Jianye's appearance, there must not be much oil and water to scrape, otherwise, how could he look dead and depressed? Hatefully thinking, cheap you this time!

"There are still 200,000 left."

"Two hundred thousand!"

"200,000 ......" Luo Jianye only felt dizzy and his eyes were black as he spoke, and he finally slipped from his chair and fell to the ground, like mud.

"Lord Luo......"

"Lord Luo......"

Liu Zuochen and Hong Jianbin who were panicked, hurriedly picked up Luo Jianye with one arm and one arm, and finally helped him to the chair, but he couldn't sit still and slid down.

Why don't you grab it? Hou Jianbin thought angrily, and said in his heart, but also, it is not to rob there while the fire can rob the silver of 200,200 flowers. Alas! It's been a bitter mess, and now it's a muddy pool, "Lord Luo, cheer up!" Let's think about a way, can a living person be suffocated by urine? ”

Hearing that there was still a way to think about it, Luo Jianye finally came to his senses, and asked Ai Ai Ai, "Is there really a way?" Lord Hou, you have to help me......" As he spoke, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.

"Look at you, Liu Shilang, if you worry Lord Luo like this, you can't ...... Think again? Hou Jianbin originally wanted to say that there should be no black spots, but he was embarrassed to say that he would come out.

It's become mine, isn't it? It's not profitable to do business, so what's the point? Zuo Chen, who was full of slander, looked at Hou Jianbin and then at Luo Jianye, and said ruthlessly: "Cousin Xiaguan, a few days ago, I prepared 100,000 taels of silver for her to make wedding money, and I don't know if I can still borrow it?" ”

There are 100,000 taels of money for your cousin alone, you kid dare to say that the silver is not enough!? What about fooling ghosts and gods? Hou Jianbin even strengthened Liu Zuochen's idea of taking advantage of the fire to rob, and said in his heart, you kid is too dark! Obviously, the construction of the restaurant cost 500,000 taels, and at this time, a facility was added, and now the value of 700,000 taels is more than that.

"Even if you have that 100,000 taels of silver, or is there a difference of 100,000 taels ......, how is this good?" At this time, Luo Jianye also had a trace of spirit, after all, the gap was narrowing, and there was hope for filling the hole, right?

"...... you, Lord Luo, you don't have any savings?" Hou Jianbin couldn't help but get angry, it's really a poor person who must have something to hate, it's such a time, he still holds the silver and refuses to let go, and he has a chance to touch the silver after being cut off by the emperor? Even if you Luo Jianye said that the sky is falling, no one believes that you can't come up with 100,000 taels of silver.

In fact, Luo Jianye is also a little cautious, it should not be difficult to fill in the 100,000 taels of silver, raise it or pour it out. It's just that I'm worried in my heart, the difference of 100,000 taels of silver can be easily made up, as the head of the household department is in charge of the Antai official bank, isn't it a move of three hundred taels of silver, and the emperor is suspicious and suspicious, and the accounts of the household department are thoroughly investigated, and I really have to go around if I can't eat it.

"Lord Hou,...... Is there really no, do you want to ...... Is the household yamen comparable to other yamen? In front of Liu Zuochen, the words can only be said to this extent, Luo Jianye knows that Hou Jianbin is not a fool, how can he not hear the hidden taste in the words?

Zuo Chen really didn't know that there were so many cats, and he thought that he was on the verge of losing his head, and he could really ask for money and not die? Where do you want to get so much involvement, he Luo Jianye doesn't dare to leak money easily? The money distributed by the imperial court every year can cope with the expenses of the entire mansion, just like Zuo Chen's own father, if it weren't for the old man's diligence and thrift, he would definitely be overstretched.

Thinking like this, Liu Zuochen still refuses to give up, this is a once-in-a-lifetime good time, if you can blacken a tael of silver and never blacken him half a tael, think about it, and said: "Two adults, in this way, the silver can only guarantee that there are 450,000 taels to take the shot, and a copper can also stump the heroes, it really can't work, so you can only think of another way." ”

"Okay! The prince can call the shots, Lord Luo, you ......" Hou Jianbin said, looking at Luo Jianye.

"Lord Hou...... This ......"

"Don't mother-in-law, mother-in-law, what time is this, you can wait before dark, the emperor can't wait in a hurry, but it's a matter of two words!"

“…… Good... Let's do it! Luo Jianye lowered his head in frustration, the hatred in his heart! What the hell is this, he innocently added 50,000 taels of silver, and he was suffocated to death when he thought about it, it was His Royal Highness the Third Prince who killed a thousand knives, and in the future, he would never have anything to do with him!

The three of them nodded, and things were easy to do, and according to Liu Zuochen's wishes, the agreement was drafted and signed.

"This is even a certificate, no one can regret it, if His Royal Highness the Third Prince repents, the lower official will take the certificate of the painting and send it to the saint, let the saint make the decision for me!"

Zuo Chen added another sentence, which almost made the two Shangshu adults vomit blood on the spot. What are these words? The emperor's father and son, you have inserted such a kick from it, you kid is still confident, the emperor is partial to you, just this confidence, it is enough for Hou Jianbin and Luo Jianzhang to sigh to themselves. That is, how much of a mistake did Liu Zuochen commit and was punished once? Isn't it still the same way to enter and exit the palace with a gold medal in hand?

Don't be angry, don't be hot! The two Shangshu lords looked at Liu Zuochen depressedly holding the voucher in his hand and blowing ink.

"The two adults wait a minute, and the lower official will go to the back house to get the silver ticket, and it will be immediately."

Liu Zuochen said, ignoring the depression on the faces of the two Shangshu adults, and left his seat to leave. I'll go back right away, but won't I go back right away? Not for acting, Liu Zuochen took out the silver ticket on the spot.

Turned to the back porch of the front hall, waved the voucher in his hand to his cousin, and returned to the front hall step by step. Although they know each other, at least they don't feel embarrassed.

"What the hell? Just come out and tell me that it worked? I didn't know why, so I shook my head and muttered.

"The number of silver tickets is just right, and the two adults are looking at it." Liu Zuochen, who had hurried into the house from outside the front hall, looked out of breath, "Do you want to give it to the emperor immediately?" ”

"That's it, that's it, I still have to thank Liu Shilang for helping!" Luo Jianye, who had recovered his expression, arched his hand to Liu Zuochen as he spoke.

Sending away the two Shangshu adults from the house, Liu Zuochen suddenly remembered that the uncle surnamed Fan had come, didn't he come to say that, thank you!
