Chapter 37: Return to Beijing
The matter between Li Xiangjun and Tian Yang is actually very old-fashioned.
Tian Yang has been living in Jinling for more than ten years since Chongzhen's early years of resignation, and finally got back naturally ready to please a good fortune, at this time someone suggested that Li Xiangjun is the premier beauty of Qinhuai River, and now it is just closed doors, it is better to invite Li Xiangjun to help out, and Tian Yang is also interested all of a sudden.
He has seen Li Xiangjun a few times, this is indeed a great beauty, but at that time he was just an official who had been degraded for many years, and he could only watch the beauty drool.
Now that he has regained the governor of Huaiyang, he is one of the few big people in the world, so he naturally pays attention to returning with fun, and immediately asked the Huai'an salt merchant at the same table to prepare three hundred taels of silver and ask Li Xiangjun to come over and drink two cups.
In Tian Yang's eyes, such a big deal will definitely make Li Xiangjun promise him.
But Li Xiangjun was too uninteresting, not only insisted on closing the door and not wanting the three hundred taels of silver, but even casually said a few bad words, and now Tian Futai is really interested in getting Li Xiangjun to get it.
He is a dignified governor of Huaiyang, and he can't even get a Qinglou woman!
Therefore, this matter naturally made a big fuss, and the Jinling officialdom even regarded this as a beautiful thing, and in the end, Li Xiangjun could only ask Zhu Meier and Ma Chaocai for help, and now Zhu Meier asked Liu Yongxi again.
And Liu Yongxi gave a solution as soon as possible: "Tian Futai is good to me, some time ago I was asked to help Huaiyang, although I am not rich enough to send troops, but as long as Futai rewards me with a beauty, I will immediately send troops to Huaiyang!" ”
Zhu Meier naturally knows that the so-called beauty of "as long as Futai rewards me a beauty" refers to Li Xiangjun, but she really doesn't want Li Xiangjun to take advantage of it for nothing, this is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old beautiful boy!
"Uncle Sincerity, I don't think this is appropriate, Li Xiangjun naturally has a heart to thank the guests behind closed doors, and you will make Li Xiangjun encounter a lot of trouble if you do this!"
Not only did Zhu Mei'er feel that it was inappropriate, but Jin'er and Hui'er also felt that this was not appropriate, and Jin'er had already spoken: "Brother Yongxi, although this has helped Li Xiangjun a lot, it may not be a good thing for her that you have such a big package!" ”
Since Zhu Mei'er and Jin'er both spoke up to object, Liu Yongxi could only change his mind: "Originally, I wanted to cut through the mess quickly, but since Miss Mei'er disagreed, I also asked Miss Mei'er to tell me the specific causes and consequences of this matter, and I will definitely help me with this favor!" ”
Zhu Meier immediately told the cause and effect of this incident, but Liu Yongxi said with a wry smile when she heard it: "This matter is simple and simple, complicated and complicated, the most critical problem is that this is Ruan Dacheng's good idea for Tian Futai, if I suppress this matter, I will not only offend Tian Futai, but also Ruan Dacheng!" ”
Although there are calls for Ruan Dacheng's comeback in Nanjing, Zhu Meier really didn't take Ruan Dacheng in his eyes, after all, scolding Ruan Dacheng and rotten prostitutes and gambling are both reserved programs of Donglin Shizi, so Ruan Dacheng in Zhu Meier's impression is almost harmless to humans and animals: "Sincerity Bo doesn't even take Tian Futai in his eyes, not to mention that Ruan Dacheng is just a criminal minister!" ”
Liu Yongxi said very seriously: "I'd rather offend a gentleman than a villain, Ruan Dacheng is such a villain, so it's not Mei'er girl asking me for help, I must let it go!" ”
Zhu Meier felt that Liu Yongxi was exaggerating, but Liu Yongxi valued herself so much, she was naturally very happy: "Sincerity, do everything according to your ability, as long as you do your best!" ”
Jin'er listened to Zhu Mei'er talk about the cause and effect of this incident, but sympathized with Li Xiangjun, the heroine of the story: "Brother Yongxi, I think Li Xiangjun is indeed worthy of admiration, you better help her!" In case she was harmed by Tian Yang and Ruan Dacheng, wouldn't it be a great tragedy that Hou Gongzi couldn't see anyone when he came back! ”
Liu Yongxi said very calmly: "There are too many tragedies in this troubled world, but Miss Mei'er and Sister Jin'er, you all want me to help this Miss Li Xiangjun, I will definitely ensure that this Li Xiangjun is unscathed, and we will cross the river into Beijing together to save this Li Xiangjun!" ”
Hearing Liu Yongxi say this, Jin'er was naturally very happy: "Then let's cross the river together to save people!" ”
Zhu Meier was also very moved: "Uncle Sincerity, there is one more thing to trouble you before crossing the river!" ”
Liu Yongxi didn't know what else Zhu Meier had to ask for, but since she was Ma Chaocai's friend and helped herself so much, she was naturally a good person to do it to the end: "Miss Mei'er has any requirements, just say it, as long as I can do it, I will do my best!" ”
Zhu Mei'er is now smiling: "What I want to say is that it's too raw to call Mei'er girl, call me Sister Mei'er, just like Sister Jin'er!" ”
Before Liu Yongxi could speak, Jin'er had already shouted first: "Sister Mei'er, I'm Jin'er, and I've wanted a sister for a long, long time!" ”
And Liu Yongxi looked at Zhu Mei'er and felt very kind: "Sister Mei'er! ”
For Empress Zhang, there is nothing happier than the news that Liu Yongxi crossed the river into Beijing, although the southern capital is only separated from Jingkou by a river, and Liu Yongxi will write a letter to her every two or three days, and the moment she receives the letter is also the happiest and happiest time for Empress Zhang.
But for well-known reasons, Liu Yongxi's love letters can only be written very subtly and briefly, often only one or two hundred words, and most of the content is still about what he saw and heard in Jiangbei, which made Empress Zhang greedily look forward to the moment of reunion with Liu Yongxi after reading the letter.
Although it has only been a month since she left Liu Yongxi, the one-month wait in Queen Zhang's heart is almost like ten years.
Who told her to live a secluded life in the cold palace for the past seventeen years, but Liu Yongxi's appearance made her whole person come to life, thinking of those happy days with Liu Yongxi and the current sleepless sleep, Queen Zhang couldn't wait to go to Yanziji to pick up her man in person.
But she is Queen Yi'an after all, so she can only honestly stay at home and wait for Liu Yongxi's return, and when she saw Liu Yongxi, she still said with a serious face: "Uncle Chengyi, are you still used to staying in Jingkou?" ”
Liu Yongxi also said politely: "Thank you Niangniang for your concern, everything is fine in Jiangbei, but I am concerned about whether Niangniang's side is okay, I heard that Niangniang's side has been a lot deserted recently!" ”
Empress Zhang said with a straight face: "Recently, Yanchen has had some controversy, and Tong Yanshi brought a lot of people over when he went to Zhejiang, so it is indeed a lot colder!" ”
The Tong Shi in Empress Zhang's mouth is the original head of the household Tong Yili, but now he has a new title: "The emperor's edict to Zhejiang according to the judge Tong Yili to rectify the local military equipment of the two prefectures of Qu and Qu, and still divide the patrol gold and Qudao".
