During the Chinese New Year, from the dignitaries to the small people, they are naturally resting, but the Qinglou Chu Pavilion and Goolan Courtyard in the capital are busier than in the past. Because the highlight of these days is not to usher in the send-off, but to go to the meeting according to the invitation of each family, singing and dancing, and showing off their strengths, just to win a reputation.

Therefore, Ge Yong's temporary note really made Wan Yuanbao feel big. However, this is nothing to think about, Ge Taishi is one of the best in the capital regardless of his reputation and status, so he didn't want to go to the originally booked Chu State Mansion to apologize in person. Sure enough, as soon as he said that Ge Yong had invited someone, the third master in charge of the Duke of Chu sighed and said that Ge Fu had already sent a letter.

So, after Shen Shi, the twelve rains arrived at Gefu, and when everyone got off the bus, their faces were full of surprise and excitement. After all, even those seniors who listened to Yu Xiaozhu had many people who admired the fame of Master Ge, but they never made him a guest of the curtain, let alone enter the hall and enter the gate of this Ge Mansion. And now, they're coming in!

When I met Zhang Chen, Lu Sanlang and others, I learned that what Ge Yong wanted to see was a peach blossom fan, and a group of girls looked at me, all of them were surprised and apprehensive. What is surprising is that they are writing and rehearsing at the same time, and they have gradually touched the core of the characters they want to interpret according to the original story and character settings of Zhang Shou, but they are worried that they have not yet run in to the extreme after all, and they are afraid that the performance will be missed.

Lu Sanlang looked like a playboy, and comforted them with a smile, but Zhang Chen was much simpler and rude, glanced at them and said angrily: "A quarter of an hour on stage, ten years of work off the stage, and you haven't worked hard for ten years, it's probably good to be able to act." Besides, if you don't perform well in Ge Mansion, at most you will be scolded by Patriarch Ge, which is much better than if you make mistakes in the future. ”

As soon as these words came out, Twelve Rain suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, but the nervous mood faded a lot in the end. Moreover, there is no stage in Gefu, and some are just a spacious hall that can accommodate more than 100 people - this is the place where the ancestors of Gefu gave lectures in the past, but Ge Yong, who is known as the world full of peach and plums, has not used it much, because most of his students are protégés or protégés, and there are very few descendants.

The old ancestor of Gefu is said to have hundreds of students, many of whom are even thorns in the army, and this place was only cleaned before the Chinese New Year. Although Chen Shang and the others felt that it was really inappropriate to use this place for a group of courtesans, Ge Yong's interest was very high, and they could only let it go, until dinner was placed here, and no one raised objections, but they were choked by Teacher Ge and speechless.

"Since the person has arrived, and I am cheeky to rob someone else's reservation, then it is natural to watch the play while eating, maybe after watching it, I will have time to let the family go to the Zhang family of the Duke of Chu to order another meal!"

Just when the middle-aged and elderly people were looking at each other and exchanging opinions, a clear voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Grandpa Ge, I'm giving you a New Year's greeting!" Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu, Qiliang and Deng Xiaodao are all here, Grandpa Ge, are you right? Father-in-law Lu was ordered to pass a message to them, if they are all here with Grandpa Ge and you, it will save Father-in-law Lu from running four places! ”

Outside the door, the smiling tiger Lu Chan, who was following Zhu Ying, couldn't help but twitch slightly when he heard the cannon-like words. When the emperor explained that task today, when he saw that Zhu Ying was also there, he knew that he would definitely not be able to get rid of this little aunt and grandmother.

Sure enough, when she went to the Shuntian Mansion, Miss Zhu followed, and she encountered another "big event". When she came to Ge Mansion, she took him on a rampage directly, and she broke in as if nothing was wrong, and no one in Ge Mansion stopped her.

The next moment, he saw that the thick curtain in front of the door embroidered with pine, bamboo, plum, and cold three friends was raised high, and a large number of people poured out immediately after. Zhang Shou's students would come to pay New Year's greetings, he expected it, but he didn't expect that there would be so many people; And Ge Yong's disciples would come to pay New Year's greetings, and he expected it, but he didn't expect that the people with the highest official positions below Chen Shang would all come.

Now that the sun is about to set, people are still so complete. And the one who was surrounded by the stars and the moon was not the elder Ge Taishi of the Three Dynasties, but Zhang Shou!

For such an appearance at this time, of course, Zhang Shou was not voluntary. But Ge Yong said, if you take someone out to have a look, he has to come, and when he finds out that Chen Shang and several other senior brothers have also been kicked out by Ge Yong, he has already occupied this rightful position. At this moment, he could only ignore this and beckoned the four people who had just been mentioned by Zhu Ying to hurry over first.

Compared with Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu, who were born in a family, Qi Liang and Deng Xiaodao couldn't figure out what the emperor had to say to them, so when they came to Lu Chan, they couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in their hearts.

And Zhu Ying had already crept to Zhang Shou's side, squeezing away Lu Sanlang and Zhang Chen, who originally occupied the left and right. And she didn't forget to salute Chen Shang and the others with a smile, and then winked at Zhang Shou.

"When this matter spreads today, I don't know how many people will be envious, jealous and hateful!" Let's talk about that bad thing later. When it comes to the New Year, let Ah Shou and them be happy first!

Because it is a message, not a holy decree, nor is it a verbal message, so when Lu Chan spoke, he did not use his tone or tone.

"Zhang Wu, Zhang Lu, the emperor instructed the two of you to go to Xingtai to promote the new textile machine, and give you the title of six rank and guard of the six ranks, what people and things you need, you can show the emperor."

Speaking of this, Lu Chan saw that Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu were both stunned on the spot, so he said seriously: "The eldest prince was ordered to go to Cangzhou, and the two of you were ordered to go to Xingtai." In fact, there was no need to appoint a special person for such a thing, but the emperor hoped that those ordinary textile workers would not be forced to work as cattle and horses with large machine owners because the new textile machinery was controlled by the rich family. That's why you're here. ”

Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu woke up like a dream, hurriedly bowed down and thanked them, and at the same time agreed repeatedly, they also praised the emperor and the emperor.

And when they agreed, Lu Chan turned around and looked at Qi Liang and Deng Xiaodao with a smile.

"Qi Liang, Deng Ai, after today's Zhengdan Dynasty, the emperor appointed the king of Shuntianfu, Dayin, as the imperial history of the right capital, the governor of Xuanda, and was in charge of many affairs such as rewards and punishments for the merits of the Northern Expedition. But Xuanfu and Datong are now in a thousand troubles, and Wang Dayin can't do without a few helpers around him. Wang Dayin is proficient in arithmetic and is not easy to fool, so the emperor said that it is better to transfer a few people from Jiuzhangtang to follow. ”

Hearing this, Deng Xiaodao couldn't help but ask, "But I'm not from Jiuzhangtang?" ”

As soon as he said this, he realized that he had made a big mistake, and he hurriedly wanted to make amends. But Lu Chan not only didn't think he was angry, but said with a smile: "But you are from the Shuntian Mansion!" Wu Ge Lao heard that after you entered the Shuntian Mansion, you did a good job in the household, so you were promoted to a warden by Wang Dayinchao, so he recommended you. Why, are you unwilling to help Wang Dayin? ”

"No, no, of course I do!" Deng Xiaodao nodded again and again, but he realized a bigger problem in an instant. He is a small official who doesn't even have a grade, so he can be recommended by Wu Gelao? It's not a joke, is it?

And Qi Liang was a little less stupid than Deng Xiaodu, so he asked cautiously at this time: "Since there are a few people in the Jiuzhang Hall, then dare to ask Gonggong Lu, which people are transferred?" ”

Zhang Shou saw that Deng Xiaodao was still so entangled that his brows were almost knotted, and then looked at Qi Liang's appearance of grasping the key point at once, he couldn't help but laugh secretly. However, before he could recommend Qi Liang, he was chosen, which was a bit strange.

Sure enough, Lu Chan's smile immediately deepened on his face, and he said lightly: "How many people to transfer, who to transfer, this is naturally up to you Qi Langjun, you choose." Anyway, what the emperor means is that Jiuzhangtang will take turns to send people to assist Wang Dayin, and you will lead the team. ”

And the person who recommended Qi Liang was his top boss Chu Kuan!

In the face of such clear words, Qi Liang would not understand. He turned around and glanced at Zhang Shou, then at Lu Sanlang and the other Jiuzhang Hall people who came to pay New Year's greetings today, and finally made up his mind. He took a step back and solemnly bowed his hand to Lu Chan.

"Father-in-law Lu, whether it's a candidate or a rotation period, I can't bring it up immediately, I have to discuss it with the teacher and Lu Zhaichang. In addition, if it is a rotational dispatch to assist Wang Dayin...... He should also be consulted. ”

Speaking of this, Qi Liang looked at Deng Xiaodu, who was still ignorant, coughed lightly, and finally woke people up: "Derpy, you'd better go and see Wang Dayin, explain the whole story clearly, and ask him to show me." ”

"Oh...... Good! Deng Xiaodu came to his senses and nodded hurriedly, "I'll go!" ”

Deng Xiaodao ran, Lu Chan was slightly stunned, and then smiled and said to Zhang Shou slightly: "How long has Dr. Zhang been in Guozijian for so long, so many talents have emerged, so much will it be better in the future?" The emperor said that famous teachers produce high apprentices, and the ancients are honest and do not deceive me, so the special gift of the Shangyuan Festival, Dr. Zhang should also enjoy three shares as during the winter solstice! ”

Until Lu Chan left, most of the others were still pondering the message revealed in the words of the celebrant and the courtier. But soon, Lu Sanlang stepped forward with a smile and dragged Qi Liang to the people of Jiuzhang Hall, and everyone discussed it intensively. And immediately after, Zhang Chen was still frowning and pondering, Zhang Wu and Zhang Lu were surrounded by people in the Banshan Hall, all of them were self-recommended!

Of course, it was not that no one tried to squeeze to Zhang Shou's side to take the teacher's route, but seeing that Chen Shang invited Zhang Shou to the circle of the elders with a smile, several smart people had no choice but to dispel that idea.

"The little junior brother is really impressive, I think when I heard that the teacher was a lot old and accepted a closed disciple, I thought it was a mistake or heard it wrong...... When I returned to Beijing, I had heard and seen everything about it, and then I realized that the teacher had a good eye. ”

Chen Shang said this in front of Ge Yong after inviting Zhang Shou back to the house, and it really made the old man smile. And although the rest of the people are famous in the court and are not good at slapping horses, they can't do it in front of the teacher, and if they say good things, they will naturally come as soon as they open their mouths. As a result, Zhang Shou found that he had transformed himself into a rare unparalleled in the sky and on the earth.

Fortunately, Ge Yong has already dazzled enough today, and when he saw that Zhu Ying had slipped into the house, he stretched out his hand and motioned for everyone to stop, and then said with a smile: "Yingying, I invited Yu Xiaozhu Twelve Rain to act, don't you mind?" ”

"What do I mind?" Zhu Ying generously greeted everyone, and then raised her chin slightly, "I'm not such a stingy person!" ”

Even if the people present are all middle-aged and elderly, and it is the basic cultivation of officialdom to be happy and angry, there are still people who can't help but show quite subtle eyes.

And Ge Yong smiled and said calmly: "Yes, yes, Yingying, you are tolerant and generous, and the prime minister has a good boat in his belly, so when I go to your and Ah Shou's house for dinner during the Chinese New Year, I will unceremoniously invite those popular leaders to help out the fun!" ”

"Hey, I'm getting older, and I really miss the time when I used to be surrounded by peach and willow green......" he sighed for a moment.

Zhu Ying saw Zhang Shou smiling and silent, so she snorted angrily: "Grandpa Ge, you don't have to say cool things there, of course I can't tolerate Ah Shou having others, but as long as he likes me, he can't have anyone else!" And if he changes his mind, then I'm a thousand and ten thousand are useless! That's why I won't be wary of him, I'm sure he won't find anything better than me! ”

"Ahem, cough, cough, ......"

This time, not only Chen Shang, but several middle-aged and elderly officials coughed violently almost at the same time. A large number of young people who are so hot and bold to express their feelings at an age, and they are also a maverick daughter like Zhu Ying, this is enough to surprise them. But what is even more surprising is that her last sentence was so reasonable!

Chen Shang couldn't help but cough while looking at Zhang Shou, wanting to observe the reaction of this little junior brother, but all he saw was Zhang Shou's smile that he couldn't hide. It seems that I am very happy for such shocking words.

"Teacher, don't tease Yingying, you should know what kind of temper she has. As for me, beauty is in front, and everyone is drunk if they don't get drunk, which is of course human nature, but my purpose has always been, just watch from a distance. Since you want to know how the rehearsal of Twelve Rain's "Peach Blossom Fan" is, let Twelve Rain perform it now and show it to your old man. ”

Zhang Shou said in his mouth, the mood was indeed very good, Zhu Ying's frank and true words were quite appetizing to him.

Just as Zhang Chen didn't like good wives and good mothers, and bluntly proposed to marry a maverick wife in front of the emperor, he also felt that if he married those virtuous and virtuous wives and good mothers who were so virtuous and virtuous that they gave their husbands Zhang Luona's concubines and concubines, he would probably enjoy a happy time, but then he would get tired of it.

Since the husband and wife have respected each other like guests from the beginning, they will naturally become respectful of each other in the future.

When Ge Yong heard Zhang Shou's words, he smiled, and then nodded and said: "Okay, I took great pains to snatch people from the Zhang family of the Duke of Chu, if I didn't invite the Zhang family to come over again, it seemed like a demonstration, I hope there will be more people, so that the New Year will be lively!" Zhang Shou, you go outside and give an order, you can start! ”
