Chapter 143: Plum Blossom Gathering
There is no need to describe the process of subduing the time and moving, one has the intention to solicit, and the corporal is broken, as if he is benevolent and righteous Meng Weijun, and the other has already had the heart to take refuge, seeing that Ximen Qingyou has never disliked himself as a person who steals chickens and dogs, and is moved. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info In the face of Ximenqing's solicitation, if he dares to say a word, he will not survive tonight, but as soon as Ximenqing speaks, he bows to the ground and bows his head to obey orders.
Ximen Qing said: "It's a coincidence, I have something here that I want you to help me do, if I do it well, I will definitely reward it." ”
"My brother commanded again, it was a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, and the villain would never frown."
"You come here." Ximen Qing told him everything about Shen Zhang, and then changed the little guy Yun'er, pointed at him and said: "If I go to the hiding place of that guy, he will be vigilant, you need to be bad." So I asked this little guy to follow you, don't look at his youth, but among the brothers at hand, he is the most clever, and he is doing this when the county inquires about the news. ”
When I first saw Brother Yun, I suddenly had a good impression, usually because of Ximenqing's praise, and the other half was to look at his appearance, vaguely having a little bit of his own appearance in the past, his body was thin, and his complexion seemed to be slippery with three points, but there was a momentum of unyielding between his eyebrows, and his eyes were lined with a lot of brilliance.
"Brother Simon, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter properly."
"Today I will ask someone to protect you out, but for some reasons, and in order to avoid people's eyes, don't spread today's matter, and don't go to me, if you have something, go to Brother Yun and ask him to pass on the message to me, remember to be careful in this matter, Shen Zhang's guy is also a cautious person, don't be noticed by him." When this is over, I will set up a feast for you, so that all the brothers will come and get acquainted with a man like you. ”
Ximenqing's words, Shi Qian did not have a trace of resistance in his heart, but was very happy, he was newly here, he had Ximenqing's trust, and arranged such an important thing to be done by him, which shows that Ximenqing has regarded him as his own person, and he has complete trust, as for not asking himself to follow him for the time being, it is entirely because what he wants to do is too confidential, and he can't disclose any news.
In the final analysis, he is a thief of chickens and dogs, although Ximenqing takes care of him and is not ashamed of him, but others look down on him, he knows it in his heart, and he himself is inferior in his heart.
The reason why he stole a lot of goods before was probably the same, for fear that others would underestimate him.
Pressing down the joy in his heart, Shi Qian fell to the ground again: "My brother looks at my methods, if I can't get something back, my brother only cut off my head." ”
"What do I want your head for? Even if you don't succeed and are noticed, you are still self-preservation, and you must not be reckless. "Ximen Qing has a fist feeling, Shi Qian's heart is hot, walking the rivers and lakes for more than ten years, how can anyone look at him like this, either cold words, or ridicule the words, never look at it with a straight eye, and now he has Ximen Qing's warm words like this, and the heart of death is there, no wonder the Ximen officials can spread their names in Shandong and Hebei, so that countless heroes are admired in their hearts, no wonder the vicious men who saw that day ran for Ximen Qing, it is really expected. This time, if it is not done properly, it will be underestimated, and the people in the rivers and lakes will laugh at it if they lose face, and the heroes under the command of the Ximen officials will never be able to spare themselves, even if the Ximen officials are magnanimous and don't care about themselves, but what face do they have to face the world, it is better to die clean.
Ximen Qing didn't know what Shi Qian was thinking, but looking at his face, he also knew that it was only a matter of time to subdue this person, so he invited Shi Qian to eat a few more glasses of wine, and he said goodbye and left, and the matter of stealing the account books was handed over to Shi Qian and Brother Yun, as for the problem of Shi Qian's escape, he had already arranged it.

Poetry gathering.
It is the favorite of talented and beautiful people, a group of men and women, get together, talk about poetry and songs, sit and discuss, to put it bluntly, it is an entertainment project for readers, and fame is secondary, most people just want to use this platform to hook up with sisters.
If you can write a good word, not only will everyone praise you, become famous in the county, and be in the limelight, but you can also get the care of the little lady in the family of high-ranking officials and magnates, or the love of your sister, so as to give birth to a good marriage, how can you not envy others.
Li Zhen originally wanted to simply organize a small gathering of poetry, a few friends and confidants sat together, chanted poems against each other, and then invited a few beautiful people, red sleeves to add fragrance, plain hands to the piano, so beautiful, but somehow, this news fell in the ears of Qin Xianggong of Zhixian County, after Qin Xianggong learned about it, his heart was happy, and in order to win a good reputation, he invited the Chinese people in the county to gather, there are many plum blossoms in the Jade Emperor Temple outside Yanggu County, at this time it is the blooming season, Qin Zhixian arranged this poetry gathering in the name of plum appreciation in the Jade Emperor Temple, When the time comes, he will attend in person, and for a while this matter will be spread in Yanggu County, and those who have good deeds will also marry a name for the banquet, called Plum Blossom Gathering.
After many high-ranking officials and scholars learned about it, they went to the appointment with all kinds of thoughts, and roughly counted it, there were hundreds of people, and the men gathered here, and the women in the county naturally had good things, and they were also very lively, and they were accompanied by each other in twos and threes, and they also wanted to participate in this poetry gathering, but due to weathering, they were not in one place, but in a Zhuangzi not far from the Jade Emperor Temple.
This matter is very important, if someone thief takes advantage of this evil and hurts the scholars in the banquet, then the face of the county minister is not only gloomy, but he is afraid that he will make his colleagues laugh.
Ximen Qingnai is the head of the infantry in the county, and has the reputation of bravery, of course, he can't escape, Qin Xianggong called him to lead thirty local soldiers to serve as his guard.
This is not a good errand, although looking at the leisure, Yanggu is a place, because of the prestige of Ximenqing, there is no bandit to disturb, but these literati are not easy to serve, they may not deal with others, but on such occasions, it is not difficult to embarrass a small official, after all, he is a scholar, the darling of the entire Great Song Dynasty. If you dare to slap your face in the face, these powerless scholars can really spray you with shit all over your face, and ruin your reputation and career by the way, after all, this is the world of scholars.
Ximen Qing was thinking of finding an excuse, saying that he was sick and didn't go, and the province was disgusted when he met Shen Zhang, not because he was afraid of him, but because he didn't want to trouble, after all, some things were already on the line, but he thought about it, as long as he didn't go, wouldn't it weaken his prestige and arouse Shen Zhang's suspicions.
was entangled left and right, and Ju An beside him suddenly smiled evilly: "It's been a few days since the master went home, and he won't go to see the future lady?" ”
