Not many people pay attention to the thoughts of the vassals.

In the eyes of the officials of the Great Song Dynasty, the only one who can compete with the Great Song Dynasty is the Liao State.

The only one who can wrestle his wrist with the Great Song Dynasty is Xixia.

Although the Western Xia is now growing bigger, it has not yet reached the point of being on a par with the Great Song Dynasty.

Western Xia is still a Song minister to this day.

Of course, Western Xia was also a vassal of the Liao State.

Liao Emperor Yelu Longxu, in order to win over the Western Xia, also awarded the title of King of Liao to Li Deming, the king of the Western Xia.

The rest are not enough to be taken seriously by the Great Song Dynasty, and they are not qualified to teach and wrestle with the Great Song Dynasty, so the Great Song officials don't care about their attitudes.

Kou Ji entered the Yanfu Palace, and after giving salutes to Zhao Zhen and Liu E, he returned to Kou Zhun and said to Kou Zhun: "Grandfather, I have worried you." ”

Kou Zhun shook his nose, snorted coldly, and said with a displeased face: "Next time, you will bury the old man first, and then go." ”

Kou Ji cried and smiled and promised: "There is no next time." ”

When Kou Zhun heard this, his face softened a little.

He asked Kou Ji to sit down first, and when Kou Ji sat down, he said to Kou Ji earnestly: "With your current status, there is no need for you and me to go into hand-to-hand combat in person.

If we want to employ people, we naturally have a large group of people standing in front of us for us to send. ”

Kou Jiba clicked his mouth and sighed: "In the scene just now, if I don't go out, I'm afraid those inmates will die." ”

Kou Zhun opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

In the kind of scene just now, no one else naturally interfered, if Kou Ji didn't come forward, those inmates would definitely die.

Kou Ji's approach, in terms of conduct, was not wrong, but instead of being wrong, he was better than everyone in the temple.

But after all, he still worried about Kou Zhun.

Kou Zhun glared and scolded: "You don't care if you save people, the old man is worried, that's your fault." ”

When Kou Ji heard this, he hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Grandson knows that he is wrong. ”

Xiang Minzhong came over at this time and said happily: "Kou boy, what your grandfather said is right, with our current status, we don't need to go into hand-to-hand combat in person. ”

When Kou Ji saw Xiang Minzhong holding the palace in his arms again, Kou Ji immediately pursed his lips and hummed in a low voice, "Old rascal......"

Looking at the others, they were all like Xiang Minzhong, and Kou Ji unceremoniously added, "A group of old hooligans......"

Xiang Minzhong's scolded old face turned red, and Kou Zhun hurriedly withdrew his hand to Gong E.

Kou Zhun coughed dryly and reprimanded Kou Ji: "All of you here are your elders, pay attention to proportions when you speak, don't know how to be polite." ”

"My grandson knows ...... wrong"

Kou Ji promised on his lips, but he didn't think so in his heart.

He was in the soup pool just now, and he almost didn't suffocate to death, but now when he arrived at Yanfu Palace, he was naturally unhappy to see this group of old hooligans playing hooligans.

I'm not comfortable, how can I look at you comfortable!

Xiang Minzhong didn't know what Kou Ji was thinking, and when he saw Kou Ji soften, a smile resurfaced on his face, "Kou boy, it's good that you know it's wrong." These palace ladies are all gifts from the official family, and we don't accept them, that is, to resist the decree. ”

Xiang Minzhong casually pointed to an official sitting at the end and said, "Did you see that?" Some people not only took the palace maids rewarded by the palace, but also stole the things in the palace. ”

Kou Ji looked at the place pointed by Xiang Minzhong, and saw a fourth-grade official, who had eaten up a plate of meat, and then stuffed the silver plate containing meat into his sleeve generously.

Kou Ji was stunned and said, "Can you still do this?" ”

Xiang Minzhong pinched Gong E in his arms and said with a smile: "Like this little beauty, it was given by the palace." Although the palace did not say it explicitly, but after taking these things, the palace would not speak, which could be regarded as acquiescence. ”

When Kou Ji heard this, he looked down at the thirty-six silver plates on the table, as well as the silver wine jug, silver chopsticks, silver chopsticks pillow, and other things.

Then he picked up the chopsticks on the table and began to eat and drink like crazy.

Xiang Minzhong and Kou Zhun were stunned when they saw this.

Kou Zhun asked suspiciously, "Hungry?" ”

Kou Ji shook his head while eating, he took a few bites of the food on the table one by one, and then in Xiang Minzhong's stunned gaze, he poured the rest of the food on the table, stacked the silver plates together, and instructed Gong E, who was waiting beside him: "Find a piece of cloth, wrap it for me, and I'll take it away in a while." ”

Seeing this, Xiang Minzhong and Kou Zhun looked at each other.

Xiang Minzhong looked at Kou Zhun stunned, and asked, "This kid is short of money to spend?" ”

Kou Zhun rolled his eyes and said, "The old man's money is almost moldy in the treasury of the house, and he hasn't spent a penny, and he has added a lot to it." ”

Xiang Minzhong looked at Kou Ji in amazement and said, "Then what is he ......?"

Without waiting for Kou Zhun to speak, Kou Ji spoke: "The sum of these things is almost worth as much as my year's worth of money, so if you don't take it for nothing, you won't take it for nothing." Anyway, if you take it, you won't be fine, who would dislike having more money? ”

Xiang Minzhong was stunned for a moment, thought about it for a while, and nodded: "That makes sense......

Xiang Minzhong looked at Kou Zhun and asked, "Brother Kou Xian, why don't we take it too?" ”

Kou Zhun glanced at Xiang Minzhong contemptuously, and said disdainfully: "With your status and mine, it is embarrassing to covet these things, and spread them." ”

Xiang Minzhong tugged at his beard, just about to regret it.

I saw Kou Zhun waving his hand at Chen Lin.

Chen Lin walked quickly to Kou Zhun's side, Kou Zhun indifferently pointed to the plates and other things on the table, and said, "The old man thinks these things are good." ”

Chen Lin hurriedly nodded and said, "The slave understands, and when I turn around, I will send someone to send you to the house." ”

Seeing this, Xiang Minzhong glared at Kou Zhun, and also pointed to the things on the table and said to Chen Lin: "The old man also thinks these things are good. ”

Chen Lin nodded and said, "The slave understands, and when you turn around, you will send someone to the house." ”

Kou Ji was packing those plates, dishes and chopsticks, and when he saw Kou Zhun and Xiang Minzhong's style, he hurriedly stopped and said to Chen Lin: "Chen Lin, I also think these things are good." ”

However, Chen Lin ignored him, rolled his eyes and left.

Kou Zhun and Xiang Minzhong were amused.

The two of them were in charge of the court, and they accompanied Kou Ji to mess around, that is, they also saw that Kou Ji had just fought a fierce battle, and they wanted to make trouble with him and relieve his mood.

Above the court, there are only these two who are willing to treat Kou Ji as a pro-junior and accompany him to mess around.

The two of them also like to hang around with Kou Ji.

They like Kou Ji's meticulous and unrestrained personality when he is doing the right thing, but he is uninhibited in private and unusually free and easy.

With the status of the two of them, as well as Yu Lu, they really don't look down on these things.

If it is replaced with pure gold, and each plate weighs a pound, then they will consider it.

Shun things from the palace, and shun things during the feast, and no one goes back to investigate.

Even the palace prepares something every year for those officials to go along.

The civil officials regarded this kind of behavior of shunning things from the palace not as stealing, but as stealing.

They didn't steal things, they stole the Dragon's Grace on them.

The imperial court is very generous to civil officials, so it is very generous in this regard, and generously let them steal at will.

Of course, only during the feast.

The rest of the time, take things from the palace, and you will be held accountable to the end.

Chen Lin didn't help Kou Ji pack, Kou Ji could only pack it by himself.

However.

Kou Ji didn't know that his stealing behavior was seen by a person, and he was called out on the spot.

"Kou Ji, what are you doing with the things in the palace?"

Zhao Zhen sat on the dragon chair and asked with a serious face.

He was still young, and he didn't know that there was such a hidden rule in the palace.

Although he has participated in a lot of such banquets, he has really never seen anyone steal anything.

Because the people who can sit next to him are all high-powered masters who are not short of money.

People don't get these things rare, so they don't steal them.

And the officials who will steal these things are far away from him, and when those officials steal things, they will also cover up a little, so he can't see very clearly.

So when Kou Ji was grinning and wrapped the plates and chopsticks with his baggage, he subconsciously asked.

Swish~

In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on Kou Ji again.

The officials in the Great Song Dynasty naturally knew what Kou Ji was doing, and they wanted to see how Kou Ji would react after stealing something and being called on the spot.

Those Fanbang envoys also knew what Kou Ji was doing, they had been envoys to the Great Song Dynasty over the years, and it was not uncommon to see the officials in the Great Song Dynasty walking the dishes and chopsticks on the table, and sometimes they themselves were also obedient.

Kou Ji put down his burden in full view of everyone, got up and arched his hand: "Back to the official's house, the minister has soiled the plate, and plans to take it home to wash it, and then send it back later." ”

When the Manchu Dynasty civil and military heard this, they were stunned at first, and then pursed their mouths one by one, and their shoulders kept moving.

Zhao Zhen looked stunned, he was stunned and said: "There is a ...... in the imperial dining room that the palace eunuchs will wash."

Kou Ji originally planned to shirk and fool Zhao Zhen over, but he didn't expect Zhao Zhen to break the casserole and ask to the end.

He could only stubbornly say: "Back to the official's house, the eunuchs in the palace can't be cleaned, but the ministers are clean." And the minister has a habit since he was a child, that is, the dishes he has eaten must be washed by himself. ”

"Oh~"

Zhao Zhen pretended to be ignorant and nodded.

When Kou Ji said that the eunuchs of the palace could not be cleaned, he realized that he had asked a question that he should not have asked.

People from other places, he doesn't know much about.

But the eunuchs and ladies in the palace, he still knows them very well.

The eunuchs and palace ladies in the palace made mistakes, and they were either beaten with a board or killed with a cane.

The punishment is quite severe, how could they not wash the dishes.

If you really can't wash the dishes, you will probably be killed.

Zhao Yuanzuo, who has always been unsmiling, was amused by Kou Ji's true temperament.

He thinks that Kou Ji is really good, when he should be a hero, he doesn't flinch at all, and when he is a villain, he doesn't hide it at all.

It's much better than those hypocrites.

And in his heart, the most hypocritical is his father.

The man who used to deceive him with one lie after another.

Zhao Yuanzuo looked at Kou Ji and said with a smile: "Since you like to wash dishes, then wash the king's plates together." ”

When Zhao Zhen heard this, he followed the wind and said, "My plate will also be handed over to you to wash." ”

Subsequently, those Zhao clan relatives and imperial relatives also opened their mouths one by one, threatening to hand over their plates to Kou Ji for washing.

Of course, their minds are different from those of Zhao Yuanzuo and Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Yuanzuo and Zhao Zhen asked Kou Ji to wash the dishes, with the purpose of rewarding them in disguise.

As for the other relatives of the Zhao family, as well as the relatives of the emperor and the country, they let Kou Ji wash the dishes, purely to shame him.

When Xiang Minzhong saw this scene, he said with a pout: "The old man suddenly doesn't want to marry his granddaughter to you." As far as you do today, you will enter the inner court in the future, and you will have a reputation as a washer, and you will not be able to run.

If the old man's granddaughter follows you, won't she be called Mrs. Wash?

The old man can't afford to lose this man. ”

The corners of Kou Zhun's mouth twitched, but he didn't speak.

Kou Ji later entered the inner court, if he was really called the dishwashing minister, he felt that he would die of shame under the nine springs.

When Kou Ji heard Xiang Minzhong's words, he took a self-conscious posture and said, "Someone gave me money to spend, don't say that I am asked to wash the dishes, even if I am asked to clean the toilet, I am willing."

As long as it is not money obtained from corruption and bribery, I will take it with confidence, and no one can find fault.

On the one hand, he took bribes, and on the other hand, he pretended to be a blue sky to the people, and won the reputation of a blue sky.

It's better to wash dishes to make money, and be a dishwasher. ”

Kou Ji just couldn't get used to the sneaky style of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, so he said that such a thing as washing dishes was justified.

They all hold the power of the imperial court in their hands, are in charge of the livelihood of tens of thousands of Li people, and they are not upright, and they do some things like stealing chickens and dogs.

Not to mention that everyone has the name of a loyal minister and a good general on their heads, even if they have the names of saints through the ages on their heads, that's it.

When Da Song should be hanged and beaten, he will still be hanged and beaten!

When Kou Zhun heard Kou Ji's words, he reluctantly exclaimed, "A gentleman loves money and takes it in a good way." The old man agrees with you. ”

Xiang Minzhong tapped his mouth and did not speak.

He always felt that he had been taught a lesson by Koji, but he had no evidence.

……

The feast ended the moment Kou Ji got into the carriage.

The carriage was sent by the palace, and it was filled with silver plates, gold plates, jade bowls and other yellow and white things.

The ministers of civil and military affairs used silver tableware, but the emperor's relatives, Zhao clansmen, and Zhao Zhen and others used gold and jade things.

The yellow and white things of a carriage are of great value.

Especially the transparent jade bowls used by Zhao Yuanzuo, Zhao Zhen, Liu E and others, which are all priceless things.

Zhao Zhen and Zhao Yuanzuo both said that they were rewarded to Kou Ji, and even though Liu E had some pain, she could only grit her teeth and generously reward Kou Ji.

When he was about to leave Yanfu Palace, Wang Qinruo, the old fox, stopped Kou Ji, and told Kou Ji with a smack, "If the old man knew that he could make so much money without shame, the old man would also give up this face." ”

Although these words were a bit scolding, when Wang Qinruo spoke at that time, the envy in his tone could not be concealed.

When Kou Ji heard Wang Qinruo's words, he was a little stunned at first.

It wasn't until Xiang Minzhong vaguely told him that these yellow and white things were enough for Kou Ji to buy a mansion like Kou Mansion in Bianjing City, that Kou Ji understood.

Although Kou Mansion is not as big as Xiang Mansion, it is better than the geographical location, so the value is not low.

When Kou Ji bought a shop in Bianjing City, he inquired about the land price in Bianjing City and the value of the house.

The house of Kou Mansion is worth 1.5 million yuan.

It's not that with Kou Zhun's identity, he can't afford to live in a more expensive house.

It's that there is no more expensive house for Kou Zhun to live in.

Most of the big mansions in Bianjing City have owners.

All of them are the Lord behind the background.

It is impossible for Kou Zhun to squeeze people out of the big mansion in order to live in a big mansion worthy of his identity, and provoke a bunch of enemies for no reason.

One and a half million yuan, with Kou Ji's current income, he needs to work for the imperial court for more than 100 years to earn it.

Kou Ji finally understood why those officials were squeezing their heads, even if they were demoted, they had to go to Bianjing City.

The rewards in the palace can only be enjoyed by officials who are close to the palace.

Often waving your hand in the palace, you may have to fight less for a lifetime.
