Chapter 145: Dismounting?
In the back office of Ping'an Mansion, the wine is cold, the food is cold, and the heart is cold...... Uh, no, people are angry. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Although it has begun to enter summer now, it is still a little cold at night, Liu Shouyou looked at the gate of the mansion coldly, and his anger grew step by step, even the little servant standing on the side could feel the coldness he exuded.
"Tuiguan Liu, didn't you say that His Highness promised to arrive on time tonight? Why is it still not there today? ”
You must know that now more than half an hour has passed since the start of the banquet, and even Liu Shouyou, who originally planned to be late and give Zhu Changluo a dismount, has been waiting here for half an hour.
If the host or guest does not come, who dares to move the chopsticks, so the senior officials of the Ping'an Mansion have to blow the wind in this slightly chilly courtyard.
"Lord Prefect, His Royal Highness did say at the city gate today that he would definitely come to the banquet, and the lower official just conveyed it as it was, as for what happened in this, it is not up to the lower official to know!"
Liu Tuiguan is not easy to mess with, he is different from Liu Shouyou, he is really admitted by the imperial examination, although he is only a fellow jinshi, but he also went to the Golden Palace and the emperor's majesty resigned, and he is a serious clear stream, and he has no good impression of Liu Shouyou, who relies on the turbidity of family relations!
What's more, although he is the prefect's second official, Liu Shouyou is not qualified to decide whether he will stay or not, so Liu Tuiguan is just respectful on his face, and if he wants to be angry with him, there is no door!
"You!"
Liu Shouyou has been hung out for a long time, and he was already very angry, but now he is even more angry when he is lukewarm.
However, he also knew that Liu Tuiguan was born in a clear stream, and he naturally looked down on him, and coming to this Ping'an Mansion to be a Tuiguan was just a matter of qualifications, and the scholars of the same subject as him, although his reputation is not obvious now, but maybe there will be a chief official of the six departments or an old minister in the future, and if he moves him now, his group of division commanders is not easy to mess with.
This is the benefit of being a clear stream, civil officials especially like to hold groups, county exams, government exams, will exams, every game can make a group of friends, as well as a high-ranking teacher, these days of pride, the future is unlimited, come and go naturally deliberately befriended.
With such a network, Liu Tuiguan can be a mere six-grade prefect, and he doesn't give Liu Shouyou, the prefect of the fourth grade, face.
Of course, this is related to the fact that Liu Shouyou himself was born in turbidity, and he is also a head shorter in his heart.
However, Liu Tuiguan is not easy to mess with, it does not mean that Liu Shouyou, the prefect, is a vegetarian, and when he turned his head, Liu Shouyou's face pulled the old man, which made a fat magistrate on the opposite side laugh.
"Li Zhixian, you are responsible for all the affairs of His Highness at the post station, say, did you not arrange it well and delayed Your Highness's trip?"
There is a saying that Sansheng is unlucky, the county is attached to Guo, and the three counties under the jurisdiction of Ping'an Mansion, Dangtu County, Wuhu County, and Fanchang County, but the government is set up in Dangtu County.
But if there is nothing to do, the prefect will be used as a punching bag...... Li Zhixian still endured it!
Who called him a Jinshi who was not a serious scholar, and his political achievements and future were still pinched by Liu Shouyou, and he was under the eaves and had to bow his head......
A smile squeezed out of the fat face, Li Zhixian took the sweat towel and nervously wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said resignedly.
"The prefect is angry, it's all the fault of the lower officials, and the lower officials immediately sent someone to urge! Send someone to urge it immediately! ”
However, he complained bitterly in his heart, Zhu Changluo's affairs at the post station were all arranged by him personally, so he knew better that there could be nothing wrong, and even he specially instructed someone to remind Wang An's father-in-law in advance that the time for the evening banquet had now sent several groups of people to urge, but if he didn't come, what could he do?
Although he may have lost the face of the person at the city gate today, which caused the displeasure of the person now, he couldn't say it, so he had to say it again and again, and be honest about his "mistake......
"Your Excellency, it's been half an hour since I left the banquet, and it should be difficult for Your Highness to come over today, why don't I wait for the time being to disperse today, and then visit Your Highness at the post station tomorrow?"
Seeing this scene, Shen Tongzhi's eyes narrowed slightly, sneered at something that had no eyes, and turned his head and said to Liu Shouyou with a pleasant face.
What he is best at is observing words and feelings, and now the prefect has been hanging for more than half an hour, and he is obviously already impatient in his heart, but he can't wipe his face and say that it is over, at this time, Li Zhixian still can't understand the meaning of the prefect, and it's strange if he is not scolded!
"That's fine......
Liu Shouyou glanced at Li Zhixian coldly, he didn't bother with him, and was about to go down the steps handed over by Shen Tongzhi, but at this time, a discordant voice sounded, which immediately made him half angry.
"Having a banquet and inviting guests, the guests leave the table before the host arrives, is this the unique hospitality of Ping'an Mansion?"
When everyone looked up, they saw that the young man was dressed in royal clothes, and he was slowly approaching surrounded by a group of guards, and when he reached the front of the feast, he lazily stopped, and waited for everyone to come to the ceremony.
Liu Shouyou is very ugly, he doesn't come early or late, but he only comes at this time, His Royal Highness King Shou, it is clear that he wants to slap his face!
However, although he was very angry in his heart, after so many years in the officialdom, Liu Shouyou was not an easy person, so he swallowed this evil breath for the time being, and led everyone to get up and salute.
"See His Royal Highness King Shou!"
Liu Shouyou thought that Zhu Changluo would look better on face no matter what, but he didn't expect the young man to step forward slowly, directly past everyone, and stand on the main seat, yes, that's right, it was standing on the main seat where Liu Shouyou was sitting just now.
Everyone maintained a saluting posture, and their bodies were slightly stiff......
Today is Liu Shouyou's banquet, so although Zhu Changluo's status is high, he was also arranged by him in the next position, of course, there is no lack of sharpness to kill Zhu Changluo.
Who knew that Zhu Changluo unceremoniously walked directly to the main seat, if it was just like this, before walking to the main seat, the young man frowned slightly, slowly stopped, and gave a look to the guards on the side, and the guards threw the chair on the original main seat directly, moved the chair from the side and put it on the main seat, Zhu Changluo sat down slowly, waved his hand lazily and said.
"You're welcome, take a seat!"
With a look like a master's house, Liu Shouyou slowly straightened up, but his face had become iron-blue......
