Chapter 397: Sowing Discord
Hama was already a little dissatisfied in his heart, but after hearing Ru Zhongbai's voice at this moment, he became a little angry, and when he saw his appearance of a chicken in the soup, the anger in his heart immediately soared.
Hama said with a stiff face: "Even if the prime minister is busy with official business, he will not send you, a miscellaneous guy, to greet him, isn't it that he already looks down on me after being awarded the title of Taishi?" ”
Ru Zhongbai made it the law of agitation, and when he saw that Hama was angry, he laughed instead: "Why did the lord say this? Now that I am the senator who was personally promoted by the prime minister, how did I become a miscellaneous villain in the mouth of adults? The prime minister really couldn't get out of it inside, so he ordered the humble post to come to greet him, but I didn't expect you to come to the prime minister's mansion to get angry, it's really ridiculous! ”
Ha Ma looked Ru Zhongbai up and down, saw his appearance and trembled the corners of his mouth with anger, pointed at him and said: "Disheveled and unkempt, you are also worthy of being an official of the court?" I think the prime minister is really blind, so he will listen to the slander of a villain like you! ”
Ru Zhongbai's face changed: "My lord, this is the Prime Minister's Mansion, and you can't be wild!" If you speak disrespectfully to our prime minister again, you will be polite to blame your humble position! ”
Ha Ma laughed angrily, sneered a few times and said, "Okay! I don't think this prime minister's mansion will come in the future, so I don't have to see some bedbugs in my eyes! ”
Hama waved his sleeves and left, not even leaving the congratulatory gifts he brought.
Seeing this, Ru Zhongbai smiled, raised his eyebrows and looked at the steward beside him and said, "Have you heard all the words that insulted our prime minister?" ”
This steward had just been slapped twice by him not long ago, how dare he pretend to be confused, and immediately nodded yes, and said with a roll of his eyes: "Hama, he has an arrogant attitude, because the prime minister did not greet him in person, he came to blame you, my lord, and he still made disrespectful remarks in front of our house!" ”
Ru Zhongbai nodded with satisfaction, and stretched out his hand to point at himself: "Then how did I get this look?" ”
The steward said without hesitation: "It was the maid who watered the flowers in the courtyard who accidentally splashed it!" ”
"Smack!"
Ru Zhongbai raised his palm and another mouth.
"This ...... Didn't you teach me to answer that, my lord? "The steward was about to cry, he had always been clever when he asked himself, but today he was slapped three times in succession.
Ru Zhongbai snorted coldly: "Stupid thing, what I just said is that if Hama asks you to answer like this, I will ask you now how to answer when the prime minister asks you!" ”
The steward covered his face and tears were about to flow out: "The villain is stupid, I will say whatever you ask me to say, I will only listen to you in this prime minister's mansion in the future, and if you let me go to the east, I will never go west!" ”
"Count you as acquaintances!"
Ru Zhongbai was a little satisfied, and reminded him: "This hama made a disrespectful speech in front of our house, and I defended the prime minister, so I had a quarrel with him, who knew that he actually grabbed the bucket carried by the subordinate to splash me, and made a big mess in front of the prime minister's mansion!" Got it? ”
The steward nodded hurriedly: "Don't worry, the little ones understand, in short, this hama is not a thing!" ”
The humble attitude of the steward made Ru Zhongbai smile: "The head of the house is old, and he is preparing to go back to his hometown to spend his old age these days, as long as you kid is smarter, this position may be yours at that time!" ”
When the steward heard this, he immediately knelt down: "Don't worry, my lord, you are my reincarnated parents, and I will follow you from now on!" ”
Ruzhong Bai's departure was only the first step in the strategy, and then he rushed back to the house with the steward to recover his escape.
Totoh didn't know that so many things were happening outside, and the decent person made a pot of tea and was ready to catch up with Hama, and after waiting for a long time, he didn't see Ru Zhongbai and Hama come in, so he was a little anxious, and he just wanted to call someone to see what was going on, and he saw an unkempt soup chicken walking in with his head down.
Look, isn't this the Ruzhong cypress who was sent out to meet Hama? How did it get like this, and immediately asked what was going on.
Ru Zhongbai pretended to be pitiful and innocent, and only said how Hama was rampant, relying on the fact that he was a celebrity around the emperor, he didn't put the Prime Minister's Mansion in his eyes, and even added oil and vinegar to repeat Hama's angry words several times.
Ru Zhongbai knows a lot about detachment, so in these fabricated words, he picked out the reverse scales of detachment, and within three or five sentences, he was very angry, and swept the teacups and teapots on the table to the ground with a flick of his hand.
"And how did you get the way you look!"
Ru Zhongbai deliberately pretended to be spitting, only saying that he accidentally bumped into the bucket he was carrying down the mountain.
"Nonsense! How could it be that you were wet from head to toe, how could it be caused by hitting a bucket? ”
With that, Tokhtok looked at the steward, stretched out his hand and pointed at him, and said, "You say! What's going on? If there is half a lie, the true nature will cut out your tongue! ”
The steward was afraid of getting rid of it, but he was even more afraid of Ru Zhongbai, who slapped him three times, and then thought that he might be qualified for the position of chief manager, so he mustered up the courage to lie: "Back to the Prime Minister, this is ...... This is the ...... that Lord Hama splashed."
"What? How dare he be so presumptuous! Someone! Prepare a sedan chair for Benxiang, I want to ask Hama in person who gave him such courage! Totoh was furious, and it depended on the owner to beat the dog, who didn't know that Ru Zhongbai was his confidant.
Ru Zhongbai knelt down when he heard this: "Prime Minister is angry, Lord Hama may be in a bad mood today, so he is so difficult and humble, and it is nothing to suffer some grievances from his humble position, so you can't let you cut off this arm in the palace!" Lord Hama is a celebrity in front of the Holy Heavens, and if you tear your face with him, your life will not be easy! ”
Toto's face changed again and again, and finally sat back in the chair with a blushing face: "It's hard for you to think about me so much, the saint does rely on him a lot, and I can't punish him, but today's matter will never be settled like this, and I will settle accounts with him tomorrow!" ”
Ru Zhongbai smiled secretly in his heart, thinking that this time you have offended the prime minister, will you have a better life in the future!
On the morning of the second day, the emperor once again rewarded Tokhtar in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, and promoted a group of meritorious ministers according to Toto's suggestion.
Hama stood among the civil officials, and at this time he also realized that his behavior of scolding Ru Zhongbai in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday was a bit excessive, and he was thinking about how to make amends to Tofu later.
Hama was thinking distractedly, and suddenly heard the Totok of the government affairs of the upper performance mention his name, and he was immediately shocked, and then listened carefully to the Tokhtar, Hama's heart immediately cooled half.
It turned out that Tokhtar actually promoted Ruzhong Bai, a Zuo Shilangzhong, to become an important official such as the Senate Zhongshu Provincial Affairs with the presence of hundreds of officials and Emperor Zhizheng, and transferred himself to become an envoy of the Xuanzheng Yuan, and ranked only third.
