Wang Hui didn't know that Gongsun Jian couldn't drink very much, so tonight he called a few bottles of good wine and put them on the table as usual.

Seeing him hold up the wine glass, Gongsun Jian realized that he had forgotten to remind Wang Hui that he was not very good at drinking.

It's just that the other party has already toasted after all, and he is also an official on the career of the Great Zhou, Gongsun Jian is not good at not giving face, raised the wine glass, and said with a smile while drinking: "Lord Wang is too careful, in fact, this official is not very good at drinking." But since Lord Wang invited me to drink, then I can't help but give face, right? ”

After all, he is a person on the official career, listening to Gongsun Jian's words, watching him just take a sip, and instantly understand that Gongsun Jian is not like drinking today.

Although I don't know if it's true or not, Wang Hui at this time is not ready to continue to be wrong.

After all, Gongsun Jian said that if he still wants to toast, he will annoy others, and it will be over.

Therefore, during the next meal, the three of them did not drink another drop of wine, and most of them were talking nonsense.

In fact, there is a difference between Pingmo County and Tianyuan County, where Gongsun Jian stayed before.

That is, there is a place in Pingmo County that Gongsun Jian yearns for very much.

Qinglou.

It's a pity that Wang Hui thought that such a promising person as Gongsun Jian would not go to such a low-grade place in the county.

Therefore, until Gongsun Jian was sent back to the inn, there was no mention of going to that place.

This made Gongsun Jian a little sad, after all, whether it was the original body or the previous life, although he had heard of it, he had never been here after all, so Gongsun Jian was very curious.

However, Wang Hui didn't understand Gongsun Jian's thoughts, which made it impossible for Gongsun Jian to go secretly.

After all, this is in Pingmo County, on Wang Hui's territory.

Going to this kind of place secretly will definitely make Wang Hui think that he, the Shangguan, did not take him seriously.

Otherwise, this kind of place that is very common to others, Gongsun Jian didn't mention it.

If Gongsun Jian didn't want to have a good relationship with him, maybe he would go directly.

But Gongsun Jian didn't know how long he would stay in Linlang County in the future, so he didn't dare to make enemies everywhere.

After all, Wang Hui's years of being a county magistrate are not short, and he may be promoted to the county one day, if he is an enemy of him, Gongsun Jian will have no one else to help him except for the criminal department.

Therefore, holding his restless heart, Gongsun Jian spent a long night.

In fact, when he was in the county town, Gongsun Jian wanted to take Gu Qing to visit the legendary Qinglou, but when he heard the average cost of a few taels a night, Gongsun Jian was silent.

He is such a poor person, so he should not go to high-consumption places.

After all, he basically used the monthly salary to pay the wages of the servants, and he didn't have a penny on him.

Originally, he thought that when he came to the county, he would be invited by the county order once, but unfortunately Wang Hui didn't expect Gongsun Jian's true thoughts.

Early the next morning, after breakfast, he took his own criminal secretary and rushed to the county seat with Zhang Changshou.

Because they left Pingmo County very early, when Gongsun Jian and his party returned to the county, it was just noon.

After arranging for someone to send Zhang Changshou to the prison in the county, Gongsun Jian was ready to go back to the house for dinner.

It's just that he had just taken a step here, but Wei Peng, the deacon of Zhengqipin, who went to the county with Gongsun Jian to handle the case, stopped him.

"Your Excellency, please stay."

"Deacon Wei, what are you?" Gongsun Jian asked in some surprise.

After all, compared to Chen Guangrong, Wei Peng and him can only be regarded as a subordinate relationship, so it is strange for Wei Peng to dare to stop himself.

"Lord Gongsun, I want to invite you to have a meal in Xifeng Tower, I don't know if you can appreciate it?" Wei Peng over there said with some embarrassment.

He also knew that he didn't have a deep personal relationship with Gongsun Jian, so the reason why he wanted to stop Gongsun Jian.

That's because when I was drinking tea and eating yesterday, Wei Peng was also there.

He is not a fool, after all, he can be a deacon of the seventh grade, and he can't do it without a little brain.

Therefore, he also understood what Gongsun Jian told Wang Hui.

Therefore, when he guessed the identity of Gongsun Jian, he naturally thought of the same as Wang Hui, and took the line of Gongsun Jian, the future important minister of the imperial court.

The reason why Wei Peng is in his early thirties is a deacon of the seventh grade, except that the time of the Zhongjin Shi is a little late, is because there is no one behind him.

Now that he understands Gongsun Jian's background, Wei Peng naturally doesn't want to let go of this opportunity, and he is much luckier than Wang Hui.

As the deacon of the criminal department, he can often meet with Gongsun Jian, after a long time, as long as the relationship is good, then there is no worry that Gongsun Jian will forget him.

When the time comes, not only can you recover the time that is slower than your peers, but you may also be able to surpass your peers by a wide margin.

I have to say that Wei Peng's idea is good, but unfortunately, he doesn't know that the official family does not want to experience Gongsun Jian, but to torture Gongsun Jian.

The reason why Gongsun Jian was promoted so quickly was because Gongsun Jian had an outside, otherwise, maybe no matter how great Gongsun Jian's merits were, he would definitely not be able to leave Tianyuan County.

The thought in his heart turned, and Gongsun Jian instantly understood Wei Peng's thoughts, but he was not ready to correct it.

After all, if someone invites someone to dinner, isn't he fragrant?

Therefore, Gongsun Jian hesitated at first, and then spoke: "Since Deacon Wei invited him, if the official refuses, it will be too unkind." However, as soon as he finished speaking, when Wei Peng's face was happy, he said with a smile: "That's it, I'll pay for today's meal, I can't let you invite a deacon." ”

Hearing this, Gu Qing on the side was a little anxious, because he knew very well that Gongsun Jian had no money at all, so he would definitely have to pay for this meal.

Although Gu Qing's monthly income is very high, he can't stand Gongsun Jian borrowing it often!

Therefore, Gu Qing was very reluctant.

It's just that Gu Qing didn't think of Gongsun Jian's sinister intentions at all, a Shangguan had dinner with a subordinate, when did Shangguan pay?

Therefore, what Gongsun Jian said later was pure nonsense.

The reason why he said this was mainly to make Wei Peng a little happier when he paid.

After all, Xifeng Lou has a lot of money for a meal, and Gongsun Jian can make Wei Peng happy to pay if he says good things, so why doesn't Gongsun Jian do this?

Sure enough, Gongsun Jian's words made Wei Peng very happy, and he hurriedly said, "My lord, how can I make you pay for my treat?" The money for this meal should be paid for by the lowly position. ”

Although Gongsun Jian originally meant this, he couldn't be too anxious to agree at this time.

Therefore, regardless of Gu Qing's dissatisfied expression, he still said, "Won't this be too much for you?" ”

After all, you can't talk too much, otherwise what if Wei Peng refuses?

Wei Peng, who was on the other side, saw that Gongsun Jian had the meaning of "wanting" to agree, and hurriedly said with a smile: "No, my lord, I can still pay for this meal." ”

Sighing deliberately, Gongsun Jian pretended to be a little embarrassed and said, "Since Deacon Wei said so, then the official is not welcome." ”

With a sigh of relief in his heart, Wei Peng over there hurriedly said respectfully to Gongsun Jian: "My lord, you wait a while, and you will come to your mansion in a while." ”

The reason why Wei Peng said this was because the two of them were still wearing official uniforms at this time, and if they went to Xifeng Tower for dinner without changing their clothes, it would have a bad impact.

So, he thought about changing his clothes first.

Thinking about the distance between Wei Peng's house, Gongsun Jian didn't want this person who invited him to dinner to be too tired, so he said, "Deacon Wei, let's meet in Xifeng Tower, after all, the place where you live is not close." ”

Seeing that Gongsun Jian cared so much about himself, Wei Peng's heart rose with a trace of emotion for no reason.

However, he didn't dare to refuse Gongsun Jian's kindness, so he hurriedly spoke: "In that case, then the humble post will wait for the adults to arrive in the Xifeng Tower." ”

In fact, if he didn't know that Gongsun Jian had an emperor's background, he would not be able to be moved if Gongsun Jian cared.

But after knowing that Gongsun Jian had a great background, all this seemed to move him very much.

After separating from Wei Peng, Gongsun Jian took Gu Qing and hurried back to the house to change clothes.

However, when he was on the road, Gu Qing, who was curious, finally asked the first sentence of the day.

"My lord, didn't you reject Deacon Wei just now? Why didn't he agree? ”

Bai glanced at Gu Qing, unlike usual, this time Gongsun Jian didn't want to answer his question.

After all, isn't that obvious?

There is a little leeway for his refusal, as long as the other party's original intention is to treat him, he will definitely not give up.

Therefore, he hurriedly walked back to his house, making Gu Qing on the side think about the problem very depressed.

After changing his clothes 3, when he went to Xifeng Tower, Gu Qing still didn't give up the question just now, but unfortunately, Gongsun Jian was too lazy to answer him.

At this time, I was thinking about how to wait and eat a good meal without being ashamed.

Therefore, outside the Xifeng Tower, which had been coming, Gu Qing still didn't ask the answer.

Fortunately, he still has a smart place, so when he saw Wei Peng, who was waiting for the two, Gu Qing directly shut up.

"Lord Gongsun, please first." After Wei Peng saw Gongsun Jian, he hurriedly trotted over and respectfully invited Gongsun Jian to the restaurant.

This made Xiao Er, who welcomed guests at the door, very depressed, after all, his duty was to welcome guests, didn't Wei Peng replace his job by doing this?

However, after all, it was because he had seen Gongsun Jian and a few people, so Xiao Er at the door didn't dare to have any emotions, so he quickly took it to the private room on the second floor.

There was no accident, when he learned that Gongsun Jian came to the restaurant, the shopkeeper of the restaurant personally went to the private room to entertain a few people.

"Lord Gongsun, welcome to the small shop." As soon as he saw Gongsun Jian's face, the shopkeeper of the restaurant Jia hurriedly put a smile on his face.

"What? Don't you Jia shopkeeper still welcome me? Gongsun Jian said jokingly.

"Where, where is it, Lord Gongsun, you can come, it is the honor of the small shop! How dare you not welcome it? Pretending to be frightened on the surface, Shopkeeper Jia hurriedly said with a smile.

After all, he could also hear that Gongsun Jian was joking, so naturally he wouldn't take it seriously.

However, just as Shopkeeper Jia handed over the wooden plaque with the name of the dish to Gongsun Jian, Gongsun Jian shook his head and said to him with a smile: "Shopkeeper Jia, today's master is Deacon Wei, you should hand it over to him." ”

Shopkeeper Jia was stunned for a moment, and then, following Gongsun Jian's instructions, handed the wooden card to Wei Peng.

Actually, if Gongsun Jian didn't say it, Shopkeeper Jia would still be ready to get the order free today.

However, since it was not Gongsun Jian's treat, he naturally wouldn't be exempted.

After all, compared to Gongsun Jian, it seems that it is useless to befriend a deacon of the criminal department.

In fact, Wei Peng over there was a little scared when he received the menu in his hand, after all, Gongsun Jian was his superior.

Shangguan didn't order, he really didn't dare to order.

It's just that Gongsun Jian arranged for him to order food after all, so in desperation, Wei Peng, who didn't know what Gongsun Jian liked to eat, could only rely on his only remaining memory to order the meal that everyone had eaten in Xifeng Tower last time.

After all, Gongsun Jian was quite happy to eat last time, so in the spirit of not making mistakes, he could only choose this way.

Taking the wooden card back into his hand, the shopkeeper Jia at the beginning had not yet reacted, but when he left the private room and was about to go downstairs to explain the kitchen to make this meal, he was surprised to find that all the dishes on the menu were eaten when Gongsun Jian came last time.
