Fenglin Restaurant, right next to the ferry, is a common place for Bianliang to welcome guests and send off friends.

Today, he was chartered by Yuan Xiannian, the head of the Criminal Department, saying that he was inviting an important guest, and this guest was Chen Shou, the hot loyal and brave man in the capital.

said that it was packaged, but there were really few people accompanying the guests today, only the father and son of the Yuan family.

In the private room, a table with carved purple lacquer, the walls are surrounded by famous calligraphy and paintings, which are very elegant and chic.

"Your Excellency, please!"

Yuan Xiannian and his son were very happy, obviously they didn't expect Chen Shou to really come and give themselves enough face.

And this is an opportunity, a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, if you make good use of it, it is better than ten years of hard study, plus decades of Pakistani settlement.

A table of delicacies, Chen Shou roughly calculated, Yuan Xiannian, the head of the criminal department, almost went out after a month's salary.

Etiquette to people, there must be something to ask, Chen Shou knows in his heart, what is the purpose of going to Malandai and Piaopeng Beijing, but it is just to ask for officials.

During the banquet, I don't know where the two maids came from were waiting on the side, wearing a light embroidered jacket, a purple silk skirt underneath, a hibiscus soft scarf with a low waist, showing off her eyes and hiding charming, serving before and after spring, serving fresh fruits, vegetables, delicacies and wine like flowing water.

Both maids have a distinctive temperament, not like ordinary maids. However, he lowered his eyebrows and was very well-behaved, Chen Shou secretly made a change to the Yuan family's family background, and if he was ready to give gifts later, would he squeeze them a little more.

Behind the screen, there are several musicians playing the silk and bamboo orchestra, the sound is not far or close, neither affecting the conversation, nor can you hear the conversation in the private room, and the distance is extremely safe.

Chen Shou was full of food, picked up his wine glass and said: "Yuan Zhang, Ling Zun came to Beijing from his hometown, we are all juniors, so let's do it, I will give the old man a cup." ”

Yuan's father is gray-haired and energetic, the father and son are very similar, and there is a shrewd and strong energy in their eyes, and when they hear this, they immediately push their hands and smile: "No, no, the little old man has no official and no lord, and he should be loyal and brave." ”

Chen Shou held him down, gave enough face, and toasted a glass of wine.

A stone fell to the ground in Yuan Xiannian's heart, and his eyes when he looked at Chen Shou changed, this young man really has the bearing to achieve great things, and he is bold in encountering things, he has the courage to fight with Wei Yunse and Yao Baobao, and he can turn over the knots and win people's hearts.

Chen Shou said with a smile: "Listening to the old man's accent, I'm afraid it's not from Kaifeng Mansion." ”

"Haha, our father and son are from Linfen, Hedong, and the Yuan family in Baibo Valley."

Chen Shou's heart moved, the place in the east of the river was full of heroes.

This Baibo Valley Yuan family said that at least it was also a prestigious family, no wonder they wanted to feast themselves.

Father Yuan suddenly sighed and said: "Baibo Valley is on the bank of the Fenshui River, this autumn flood, both banks are flooded, and the little old man has nowhere to go, so he can only go to the capital to join his son." Along the way, only Zhang Zhengyuan, the chief of the trail sent by Uncle Zhongyong, gave relief to the victims and saved the place, so whatever this glass of wine says, I will pay tribute to Uncle Zhong and Yongbo for the 160,000 people in Baibo Valley. ”

Chen Shou hurriedly said that he didn't dare, and said: "The flood situation in Hedong is concerned about my heart, and it is also the heart of the saint. I just hope that the wind and rain will be smooth, and the country and the people will be safe. ”

Yuan Xiannian clapped his hands, and even the maids got up lightly and pulled down the curtain on both sides.

The private room was a little dim for a while, he lowered his voice, and said: "Zhang Zhengyuan is a small road chief, recruiting troops and horses in Hedong, under the banner of Yanqing Temple. Everyone knows that Yanqing Guan is loyal and brave, among them... Is that what you mean? ”

Chen Shou nodded, there was nothing to hide at this time, and the Yuan family made it clear that they wanted to cooperate.

He was about to speak, but his eyes looked at the two beauties, signaling whether he wanted them to avoid them.

Yuan Xiannian said with a smile: "Uncle Zhongyong said that it doesn't matter, these are my two nieces, blood heirs." ”

Chen Shou immediately confessed: "I didn't expect it to be the young lady of the Yuan family, why was she pouring wine and cloth dishes on the side, hurry up and sit down." ”

Yuan Xiannian smiled and said: "It is their blessing that they can serve Uncle Zhongyong, but it doesn't hurt to say that Uncle Zhongyong can do it." ”

Chen Shou nodded, owed a little, and said to Yuan's father: "What Zhang Zhengyuan did in Hedong was indeed instructed by me, what do you two think?" ”

Father Yuan smiled: "Uncle Zhongyong, the little old man has not read for a few years, and he speaks stupidly, I hope you don't care." Zhang Zhengyuan has the means and courage, but the strong dragon is difficult to suppress the snake. That place in the east of the river is not something you can eat with means. On the surface, Hedong is now in chaos, but in fact, the vitality of the major families has not been harmed at all, and the White Lotus Sect is just a refugee.

If Uncle Zhongyong really intends to Hedong, my Yuan family is willing to serve the work of dogs and horses! ”

Chen Shou was silent for a while, the two fathers and sons looked at him with a smile, and after a while, Chen Shou said: "Do you have a crush on me, or do you fall in love with Xiliang behind me." ”

Yuan Xiannian smiled very heartily, "Uncle Zhongyong is quick to talk, I didn't expect to be straighter than my father, let's say it clearly, we all like it." The troubled times are coming, and no one can stop them, and the discerning people can see it clearly. Uncle Zhong Yong backed Xiliang, won the sacred heart, controlled the inner court, and had strong soldiers ambushed in Bianliang. It is a wise move to choose the Lord to serve in troubled times, our Yuan family, bet on this! ”

understands that people speak so happily, and after a little temptation, there is no cover in the slightest.

Chen Shou enjoyed this feeling very much, everyone was open and honest, choosing the pros and cons, and if it didn't work, they would break up.

"What can you give me?" Chen Shou asked.

Yuan's father is obviously the main business of the Yuan family, and by this time, Yuan Xiannian has stopped talking, and Yuan's father twisted his beard and said: "If there is Baibo Valley in Hedong to help, Zhang Shiyuan will get twice the result with half the effort." Moreover, in the future, the troops will be stationed here, which is a pivotal place, which can radiate to the east of the river and overlook the Central Plains. If there is a fine horse starting from Baibo Valley, the road is smooth, and the fast horse can reach Bianliang City in three days! ”

Chen Shou clapped his hands and said, "Okay, come, the three of us, drink this cup together!" ”

The three of them raised their wine glasses together, Chen Shou drank it all, and the father and son of the Yuan family looked at it, and they all raised their heads and drank it dry.

Chen Shou said: "You have been in this position in the Criminal Department for too long, and it is estimated that you are not valued by Wei Yunse." ”

"Our Baibo Valley and the Jiang family in Longmen Mountain are feuding, and Jiang Chucai is Wei Yunse's lackey, so he pressed me to death. However, their Jiang family is in Hedong, and they may not dare to take a step beyond Lei Chi. ”

"I see." Chen Shou said: "Some time ago, the Tang people went north to attack our sailors, which has caused His Majesty's wrath. I am ready to recommend to Your Majesty that you be the envoy and go to the Southern Tang Dynasty. After the deed returns, when you can be added to the knighthood, do you want to go? ”

Yuan Xiannian hugged his fists and said: "Just the Southern Tang Dynasty, if there is anything you dare not go, Zhongyong Uncle can only rest assured, the lower officials will not disgrace their mission." ”
