The imperial historian Zhuang Qingzhai and the prime minister Xu Chang are different. Xuchang has no talent and no virtue, I want to be a driver back then, just because he is a hero, he drives well, and climbs step by step from Langzhong to the high position of prime minister, which can be described in two words, that is, obedient! Listen to the words of the emperor and listen to the words of the empress dowager, so he was appointed prime minister after Dou Ying's dismissal.

And Zhuang Qingzhai is different, this person is very scheming. After he was also considered a meritorious hero, his grandfather Zhuang Buzhi was a person who was Xiang Yu, the king of Xiang before returning to the Han Dynasty, and saw that Liu Bang's army was successful, and abandoned Chu to return to the Han Dynasty! After returning to the Han Dynasty, he was soon appreciated by the right prime minister's tomb and entered the prime minister's mansion. With such a grandfather and tutor, Zhuang Qingzhai will not be a good person.

Now the struggle between Emperor Liu Che and the Empress Dowager is gradually fierce. Zhuang Qingzhai stepped on two boats, not only wanting to please the Empress Dowager, but also to curry favor with the emperor. Zhuang Qingzhai asked Ji Di to persuade Dou Ying to write this letter The purpose is very simple, as long as the letter is handed over, whether it is the Empress Dowager or His Majesty, there will definitely be someone unhappy, and at that time, Zhuang Qingzhai will be invincible.

Su Ren sighed: "Has Wei Qihou thought about the consequences of this matter?" I don't want to risk my life to save people again. ”

"The old man was entrusted by the emperor, how could he ......"

"Wei Qihou still wants to go his own way?"

Dou Ying nodded. Su Ren shook his head and sighed: "In that case, farewell, I don't want to be implicated by you because of this matter." Su Ren bowed his hand and said goodbye, walked to the door and looked up to the sky and sighed: "This Han Dynasty has one less loyal minister!" ”

I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today, and the things I encountered were all unhappy. All the way back home with a black face. As soon as he entered the door, Liu Gao hurriedly greeted him and said to Su Ren: "Brother Ren, someone is looking for you!" ”

"Who?"

Liu Gaochao spoke angrily in the lobby, didn't say much, and gave Su Ren a look. Su Ren retracted his mind and came to the lobby. There were indeed a few strangers inside, and sitting at the top was a young man of eighteen or nineteen years old, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, very imposing, holding the tea brought by the servant, and tasting it carefully without taking a sip.

The second one is also a teenager, this guy is cold and arrogant, he looks too delicate from his face, if he doesn't dress as a man, he will definitely be regarded as a woman. From time to time, the kid looked at the door, looking impatient.

The third person is a middle-aged man with long hair under his chin, and he looks like a learned person. This middle-aged man was closing his eyes and recuperating without saying a word. Only the fourth one was known to Su Ren, and it turned out to be Wei Qing, wearing a robe, which was even more stable. Wei Qing was talking to Hawking, I didn't know what to talk about, and the two were very happy. It's just that Wei Qing seems absent-minded, and occasionally when he laughs, he will look at the young man who looks up a few times.

Seeing Su Ren coming in, Wei Qing hurriedly got up: "Brother Su, you're back, come on, I'll introduce you!" ”

Su Yiyi raised his hand: "No need to introduce, I don't care about others, Brother Wei is here, naturally I want to be entertained, today I will cook in person, make a few good dishes, let brother you taste my craftsmanship." ”

Wei Qing smiled awkwardly and turned his head to look at the young man in charge again. Su Ren glanced at a few people: "Since you are all friends of Brother Wei, then stay and have a light meal, the humble place is not as rich as the palace, but you can try it." ”

The young man who looked like a woman snorted coldly: "Of course it's not as good as the palace, what can you eat in this place?" ”

The magnificent young man interrupted the words of the female boy and smiled slightly: "Today we are stained with Wei Qing's light, I heard that the dishes cooked by Su Gongzi are unique, and they are very famous in Shu County, how can we not taste them?" There is a son of Lao Su! ”

Su Ren looked at the young man again, he was not tall, although he was deliberately polite, but he could see the feeling of being high in his bones from his eyes. This person is very energetic, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but he is not lacking in courage and perseverance. In particular, those eyes are the most interesting, the black hole is bottomless.

The middle-aged man also said: "Su Gongzi not only cooks well, but also does business, these two things are outstanding, both of which make people forget Su Gongzi's literary brilliance. ”

Su Ren waved his hand again and again: "Your Excellency's love, it's not me who did it, why bother to take it out and shame me?" Su Ren can see that these people are not good at stubble, they are all here to find fault. Turning his head to Wei Qing, he said, "Brother Wei, greet a few, wait a while, I'll come when I go!" ”

Out of the lobby, I met Leng Jun and Su Kai around the corner, the two of them were sneakily looking towards the lobby, Su Ren came over, and the two of them pulled Su Ren one by one. Leng Jun asked, "What is the origin of these people?" ”

Su Ren didn't answer the question: "What about my teacher and Mr. Dong?" ”

"I was called away by the people in the palace, saying that it was too much to learn, and I was too often recruited!" After Su Kai finished answering, he said, "I don't think those people are good, although there are no guards to follow, our house is surrounded by secret sentinels. ”

Su Ren struggled a few times, got rid of the two of them, and patted the soil on his body: "No matter who it is, since it was brought by Wei Qing, there should be no malice." ”

"That's not easy to say, Wei Qing is not the horse boy of the Pingyang Hou Mansion now, Wei Qing's sister Wei Zifu was dedicated to the emperor by Princess Pingyang, the wife canonized by the emperor a few days ago is her, and now Wei Qing is already on an errand in Jianzhang Palace, which is an errand that only Xungui's children are qualified for."

"So what? Since Wei Qing can come to see me, it means that he hasn't forgotten about us. ”

"Pedantic!" Leng Jun threw down this sentence and turned to leave.

Su Kai frowned: "It really doesn't matter?" ”

Su Ren nodded: "Don't worry, it's okay, everything will be clear when the teacher and Mr. Dong come back." ”

Under the banner of entertaining Wei Qing, no matter who comes or not, Wei Qing is naturally the first guest. Wei Qing is the brother whom Su Ren recognized in Pingyang, so prepare a family banquet. Including Wei Qing, seeing that the servants of the Su family did not prepare a small table, they put a round table in the middle of the hall, surrounded by strange chairs, and several people looked at each other, not knowing what the hell Su Ren was doing.

Holding two plates of dishes, one plate is cold bean sprouts, and the other plate is braised pork liver, Su Ren smiled all over his face, and instructed Huang Shisan: "Go to the backyard and dig a jar of wine, which is the one I buried when I first came here!" ”

Putting down the dishes, Su Run warmly beckoned a few people to the table. Something like this they saw for the first time and didn't know what to do. Su Ren stretched out his hand to pull the heroic young man, but before he could touch anyone, the woman and the young man hurriedly blocked in front of Su Ren and said vigilantly: "What are you doing?" Don't be rude! ”

Su Ren pointed to the chair: "I can see it, you have the highest status among the four of them, and you sit in the first place!" In this way, everyone understands how to sit, right? The Wei Qing brothers are the youngest, and they are the last to accompany each other! ”

Su Ren arranged the seats while observing the behavior of several people. The heroic young man didn't react, and the other people didn't dare to step forward. The heroic young man smiled slightly: "Guests are as they please, sit down!" The rules of Su Gongzi's family are very special, and this way of sitting is very close! ”

Su Ren stretched out his thumb: "This brother is high!" In life, you have to be close to people, otherwise you will be estranged! He took the wine brought by Huang Shisan, patted the mud seal, poured himself a little first, tasted it, and shook his head: "It's still too short, if it takes three or five years, it should be very good!" Only then did he pour wine for a few people one by one.

Sitting down again, Su Ren took the wine first and toasted everyone. Greet everyone to eat, every dish Su Ren has to introduce, he knows that these people come from places that others don't expect, not to mention this kind of small dish, even the delicacies of the mountains and seas, phoenix liver and dragon marrow have also been tasted. Pick up a chopstick bean sprout and gently put it in the bowl of the heroic young man: "Taste, this is called bean sprouts, which are the sprouts of beans, boiled in hot water, crisp and delicious, and the best wine!" ”

The heroic young man observed for a long time, and the female young man hurriedly took a little bit, tasted it first, and after a long time, he nodded at the heroic young man. The heroic boy just started eating. The middle-aged man opposite Su Ren was staring at a plate of sauced meat, studying it carefully, he didn't know what kind of meat it was, and he couldn't see the method, so he didn't dare to eat it.

Su Ren smiled: "This is pork, it is cheap meat, generally people with status will not eat it, it is dirty, it is actually delicious, you can taste it!" ”

Wei Qing took the lead in getting off the chopsticks this time, took a bite, and praised endlessly. A wine feast begins in this eerie atmosphere. After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, the atmosphere is a little more harmonious. Su Ren smiled and said to Wei Qing: "After talking about it for so long, I still don't know what you call it?" Brother Wei Qing, can you introduce me now? ”

Wei Qing hurriedly apologized, and started to introduce from the middle-aged man: "This is Mr. Dongfang, this is Han Gongzi, and this is ......"

When he was introduced to the heroic boy, Wei Qing didn't know what to say. Su Ren smiled: "I know, this should be Liu Gongzi, or Huang Gongzi or Wang Gongzi!" ”

A few people were stunned, and the heroic young man glanced at Su Ren meaningfully: "You are really smart, you recognize it?" ”

Su Ren nodded: "Wei Qing's sister has just been named a lady by His Majesty, it can be said that Wei Qing can come to Chang'an is also due to His Majesty, except for Your Majesty, he should not know anyone, I heard that Your Majesty has courtiers Dongfang Shuo and Han Yan by his side, since Mr. Dongfang and Han Gongzi have come out, will Liu Gongzi be far away?" ”

"Hahaha......" Liu Che laughed: "Originally, I thought it was well hidden, but I didn't expect that Su Gongzi would have seen through it a long time ago, and it was me who made it." ”

Several people were talking, Wen Dang and Dong Zhongshu also entered the courtyard, just at the entrance of the lobby, kneeling down in their clothes, kneeling three times and nine knocking in the lobby, and shouting long live. Until this time, the people of the Su family finally understood who was coming from the Su family today, and they hurriedly threw down the things in their hands one by one, quickly knelt down, and a few curious people secretly looked up into the lobby.

Su Kai knelt behind Wen Dang with tears streaming down his face, for decades, since his father took the whole family to Yandi, he finally saw the emperor today, which was quite shocking for a person who was loyal to the emperor from the bones. In this case, Su Ren naturally couldn't sit anymore, and hurriedly got up and knelt in front of Liu Che. In the entire Su family, only stood coldly and quietly under the eaves of the cloister, looking at all this coldly.
