Chapter Eighty-Four: The Courtyard of Love
In the east wing, a man in his forties, who looked like a rich man, was sitting in the room, reading a simple book by candlelight. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Su Gu stepped forward and gave a deep salute, and said, "Lord, Zhaoling Han Yi and Han Mingyuan have already come." ”
The rich man is the master he needs to see on this trip, He Miao and He Shuda. He Miao raised her head and put down the simple book, and asked with a smile, "Oh, Han Mingyuan is here." Come and see us. ”
Han Yi stepped forward and bowed deeply, saying, "Han Yi pays a visit to He Fujun. ”
He Miao smiled and stretched out her hand to support it, and said: "No courtesy, no courtesy, when I get there in the future, I don't need to be so polite." I am vulgar by nature, and I don't like people to bow down at every turn, or say that you are too rude, wave your sleeves and turn away. It's inexplicably amazing. ”
Han Yi couldn't help but smile in his heart, He Miao seemed to have officially developed and become rich four or five years ago. In the past, most of them were in the countryside of Nanyang, and most of them were ordinary people, and it was difficult to change the habit of more than 30 years. He Miao is very uncomfortable with the etiquette of officialdom and scholars, which can be imagined.
Han Yi replied: "Yes, Yi will definitely notice this in the future." Although this is the response, the etiquette that should be given must not be avoided, otherwise He Miao will become accustomed to the etiquette of the officialdom and scholars one day in the future, but he will lack that courtesy, but he will be disgusted by it, which is absolutely not good.
He Miao pointed to the simple book on the desk and asked, "What kind of books has Mingyuan read?" ”
Han Yiying said: "Zhu and Qiu Er's families in Zhaoling are all merchants' families, and there are not many books in the house, only the four books and five classics of the public, Yi studied with the township gentleman for two years when he was young, but after the age of thirteen or fourteen, he didn't read anymore." So it can only be regarded as literate, and there is not much literary talent. ”
He Miao nodded and said, "Yes, I also read books for a few years when my late father was still alive. Later, after the death of his father, when the eldest brother was in charge of the family portal, he never read it again. It was the happiest day of my life, carefree. Hehe, Mingyuan, when you have free time in the future, you can also read more, which is very good for increasing personal knowledge and thoughts. ”
Han Yi bent down and responded: "Yes, Yi will definitely keep it in mind in the future." ”
He Miao asked again: "I heard Su Gu say that a few months earlier in Mingyuan, he followed Zhu Gongwei in Nanyang to fight the Yellow Turban Moth Thief. After that, did he go to Changshan Country with him, and how many merits did he make? ”
After thinking about it, Han Yi said, "There is no big war in Changshan, so there is no merit. When he was in Nanyang, he had the first merit of climbing and breaking the city, and the merit of capturing 20,000 or 30,000 thieves. However, it was under the command of Xu Xian, the commander of Runan, and the great merit should be counted on Xu Duwei. ”
He Miao said angrily: "Lieutenant Runan? Xu Xian? Hmph, really, I hate this kind of person who takes the merits of his subordinates as his own, not only the corpse table, but also the incompetence. ”
Han Yi hurriedly persuaded him: "He Fujun is also angry, the merits of his subordinates are closely related to the command of the superiors, even if it is Yi, one person cannot dominate the world, and it is not still the merits of the subordinate soldiers." Xu Duwei was Yi's official at the time, and he was not at fault for taking Yi's merits. ”
He Miao nodded approvingly, and said, "Yes, yes, having someone like you as a subordinate is a blessing for the officials." Yes, when you come to Beijing this time, do you have your own thoughts about the official position awarded by the court? ”
Han Yisi said: He Miao's words seem to have the intention of soliciting himself, but he has no credit to He Miao, and He Miao is not a person who is thirsty for talent, and he can't get much official position just by sympathy. Moreover, at this time, the war in the Central Plains has gradually subsided, and it is no longer as difficult to have a lot of military achievements as last year. On the contrary, it is better to seek the county seat of a border county as an official as before, and in the future, it will not only have the merit of governance, but also the merit of fighting with Beidi Xirong. In this way, the promotion will be fast in the future.
Han Yi responded high-spiritedly: "General Fei will guard and govern the border cities for the country." I will teach Xianbei Huma to hear my name, and flee far away, and never dare to commit it. ”
He Miao shouted: "Good ambition, a man should have such anger." Well, with your merits, 300 stone should be enough. I'll help you see if there is a vacancy for the post of county magistrate in the border county, so that you can serve as the commander and the lieutenant at the same time, so that you can become General Xiaofei. ”
Han Yi was overjoyed, but he didn't expect that there was a saying that the two positions of county magistrate and lieutenant could be awarded to one person at the same time, so he hurriedly bowed and thanked him. With Bao Hong's recommendation first, and then He Miao's help, his position should be arranged quickly. Han Yi hurriedly bowed deeply again to show his gratitude.
He Miao asked a few more questions and answers with Han Yi, and then signaled to send off the guests, Han Yi hurriedly retired, and left the east wing with Su Gu. On the way, Su Gu patted his head with some annoyance and said, "It's all because I was often drunk a few days ago, which made He Fujun not only treat me a lot colder, but also don't value you as much as he did at the beginning." ”
Han Yi said with a smile: "Brother Su's idea in the future is to get He Fujun's trust again, as long as you speak by He Fujun's side, am I afraid that there will be no possibility of promotion in the future?" ”
Su Guxi said: "Yes, yes, I will definitely protect and serve He Fujun well in the future, so that He Fujun can regain his faith in me." ”
Looking at the sky, it was still early, Su Gu smiled and said: "Brother Han, it's still early, although you and I can't drink more good wine, but we can go to the Qinglou to have fun, He Fujun doesn't care about this." ”
Han Yisi and the Bao Mansion still had the pretty maid Xiaoqing waiting, but it was inconvenient to sweep Su Gu's interest. You must know that a man has no home for many years, and it is normal to go to Qinglou Yile when he has time. I had to respond: "Okay, it's just that the prices in Luoyang are expensive, and I'm shy in my pocket, I'm afraid I'll have to bother Brother Su a lot." ”
Su Gu smiled slyly and said, "Gu's money is easy to come by, just go lightly, and the bag is also shy and tight." However, Brother Han is a very rich man, with a huge amount of money, but he can let Gu Yu eat well tonight. ”
Han Yi was stunned, it turned out that Su Gu said that he had prepared to assassinate Xu Yu a few months ago. Han Yi Sibi laughed and said, "Okay, tonight Yi will let Brother Su eat a good meal to repay Brother Su for today's introduction." Anyway, where does Brother Su want to go to Qinglou tonight? ”
Su Gu patted the car and shouted: "Gu has been in Luoyang for four months, and I have heard for a long time that the four prostitutes of Luoyang's 'Qingyi Courtyard', Liang Rou, Bian Yu, Chen Yu, and Song Fei are beautiful, and they are the best in the country and the city. Today, you can enjoy the blessings of Brother Han, and you can go to see it. ”
Han Yi said with a smile: "Okay, Yi will follow the host tonight, and he will go to the 'Qingyi Courtyard' with Brother Su." ”
The two of them rushed to the east of the city in a car straight to the east of the city, "Qingyi Courtyard" is located in the south corner of the east of the city, not far from the inner city wall. Although it is called a small courtyard, it is also 300 steps wide, and there are 100 prostitutes in it, among which Liang Rou, Bian Yu, Chen Yu, and Song Fei are beautiful. It seems that the owner of this brothel is a capable person, not an ordinary person, to open a brothel where the dignitaries and nobles live, and to earn money from the dignitaries and nobles in the inner city.
I saw that on the side of the road of the "Qingyi Courtyard", there were no less than dozens of luxurious carriages of all kinds, and Su Gu's carriage was a little frosty. The grooms and the servants all gathered in the tavern next to each other to drink and laugh, always listening and waiting for the master's summons.
After Han Yi and Su Gu got out of the carriage, they were immediately greeted by the servants and slaves of the brothel, and they were invited all the way to the hall in the courtyard to sit down. The servant asked with a smile: "The two distinguished guests seem to have some eyes, I don't know if the two distinguished guests know each other." ”
Su Gu waved his big hand and said: "No, no, Lao Tzu is here today to see the four beauties of Liang Rou, Bian Yu, Chen Yu, and Song Fei, I wonder if they have seen guests?" ”
The servant bowed deeply and said with a smile: "Miss Bian Yu received Cao Mengde and Cao Duwei early in the morning, and the two girls Chen Yu and Song Fei are also receiving Huang Ziyan and Huang Shizhong and a prince master, only Miss Liang Rou is free. ”
