Chapter Ninety-Eight: Pointing to Sang, Scolding Huai

Lao Dong Gui is the housekeeper of the servant's mansion, but he does not have the dominance of the gatekeeper of the Hanlin Academy, and his attitude is extremely humble to explain his intentions, and he wants Yu Lang and a few of them to take Zheng Yuanhe to the mansion to recuperate and take care of them for a while. ☆☆ New Thinking Chinese Network ☆☆ .org

Du Fu was a little relieved that the young man was a little relieved, so he quickly agreed, and was about to go out to find Zheng Yuanhe, but was stopped by Lao Dong.

"What my master means is to ask him to make a move in three days, and he also wants the young master to suffer more, knowing that the pain can lead to a long memory. His legs and feet are inconvenient, and he should still be near the left side of the West Market in three days, and then there will be a lot of work. ”

Yu Lang sighed: "Your master is also well-intentioned, and he wants to beat again, but he is distressed and entangled." ”

"Isn't that what parents are?" Lao Dong smiled kindly, "The master also said, if you do this well, in addition to this gift to express your heart, the Ministry of Servants and the Lang Mansion owes your mansion a favor." ”

Yu Lang was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly felt a little envious of Zheng Yuanhe for having such a father. He never felt the care and care from his father, and the only thoughts his biological father left him were a letter and a painting. Liang Chaoran once gave him such meticulous care and warmth, but unfortunately, before Yu Lang could touch the taste, he left forever.

"Mr. Dong, please rest assured, we will take care of Yuanhe, and if the time is right, we should also explain to him Lord Zheng's hard work."

Lao Dong shook his head: "My lord specially instructed that the young master must not know about this matter, if the young master knows, not only will he not be willing to accept your kindness, but he will even hate you." ”

Yu Lang nodded, thoughtful.

As soon as Lao Dong left, Du Fu opened the brocade box, and a layer of red velvet was dotted at the bottom of the brocade box, and a pair of jade horses with excellent color were placed on the velvet.

Du Fu stroked it carefully, with an intoxicated expression on his face.

"So Lao Du, you like jade so much?"

"No, no, no, what I touch in my hand is a jade horse, but what I think in my heart is a silver tael of white flowers, this pair of jade horses must be worth five hundred taels."

"This is so valuable to Yuma?" Yu Lang was surprised, "It seems that this Zheng Shilang is probably not a good official?" ”

"No, the real corrupt officials can pick the door, money is easy to get in and difficult to get out, let us do this little thing, and it won't cost more than fifty taels of silver to change a real corrupt official. The Zheng family is also a well-known wealthy family on Huainan Road, and it is a meritorious service to seek official employment, and there is no need to be greedy for money. He dares to give such a generous gift to outsiders like us, and he is not afraid of words and officials chewing on the root of his tongue, and it is precisely because of his great family that he has such confidence. Du Fu patiently explained to Yu Lang.

"If Li Linfu ......"

Du Fu and Yu Lang said these words at the door, but they didn't notice that an old man in Chinese clothes had stopped to listen for a long time.

"Why don't you say it, what if it's Li Linfu? Lao Yu happened to hear the two high-level arguments, and couldn't help but listen to a few more words. The old man still couldn't help but be curious.

Du Fu looked at the sky, in this Chang'an City, saying bad things about Li Linfu is more serious than saying bad things about His Majesty Emperor Xuanzong, if this old man listens to it and uses it to threaten, the five hundred taels of silver that have not yet been covered with heat just now fly away, and he immediately cleared his throat: "I mean that my Tang Dynasty is under the rule of the virtuous minister Li Linfu, and I have always been politically clear, and I will not produce such corrupt officials." ”

"Tut-tut, this is boring, the old man and the old thief have a bit of a holiday, I heard that Du Zimei has the ambition of 'to Jun Yao Shun, and then make the customs pure', it turns out to be a soft goods, boring." The old man looked disappointed.

Du Fu was naturally unimpressed by his disappointment, but Yu Lang didn't want Du Fu to be famous, so he grabbed Bai and said: "Do you dare to scold Li Linfu on the street?" ”

The old man seemed to be extremely interested in Yu Lang, looked at it carefully for a while, stroked his white goatee, raised his voice and said: "Listen, Li Linfu is a bastard bastard, cronyism, suppressing dissidents, is the biggest cancer of my Tang Dynasty, if this person is not removed, the Tang Dynasty will be uneasy." ”

After speaking, the old man also turned around leisurely, and seemed not afraid of being heard by Li Linfu's ears and eyes.

"Uncle, are you coming to the limit, so before you die, I want to say two happy words to relieve my anger, I admire you." Yu Lang looked distressed, with Li Yu's kind of character that must be repaid, what kind of good goods can his father be? Moreover, Yu Lang had seen the Li family's intelligence system in Yangzhou City, and he was still deeply impressed by the Kui Wood Wolf, one of the forty-eight constellations. I'm afraid that this old man will be hacked to death by someone random knife in any alley he enters, and then feed his body to the dogs.

However, there is another possibility, this old man's own identity is not under Li Linfu, and he is not afraid of being an enemy of Li Linfu at all. Now the only one in the court who can barely sing some contradictory tunes with Li Linfu is Li Shizhi, who was originally an official of Li Linfu's faction, but after being recommended by Li Linfu to be the left minister, he gradually became dissatisfied with Li Linfu's behavior, and turned to the prince's camp and had a close relationship with the princess's brother Wei Jian.

The age is not right, Li Shizhi should be in his prime at this time, and he should not be so old.

This old man is over sixty years old, with a clear face, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and a priceless jade pendant hanging from his waist.

Could it be a prince? Although the princes are not as powerful as Li Linfu, Li Linfu will never dare to act rashly, just because His Majesty Xuanzong is extremely concerned about brotherhood. Ren Yulang scratched his ears and cheeks, and couldn't guess where this old man came from.

The old man let Du Fu and Yu Lang guess in every possible way, and his expression was pleasant.

"I helped you scold the words that you didn't dare to scold in your heart, and you didn't invite me in to sit? My old man's body and bones are not as good as you young people, and if I stand for a while, my back will be sore and my legs will be numb. ”

Du Fu hurriedly introduced the old man into the courtyard, invited him to sit down in the main hall, and personally made him a pot of tea.

The old man opened the teacup and sniffed it, frowning: "This kind of coarse tea, the old man hasn't drunk it for decades." ”

After speaking, he still pinched his nose and took a sip: "Well, it's still the taste in my memory." Tell me why the same variety of tea has the same taste for decades, but people are always so fickle. ”

"I don't know who you are referring to? Also, did we know each other before? ”

The old man shook his head: "I don't know each other, it's a pity that I didn't know a young man like you earlier." ”

Yu Lang asked, "Then who is the fickle person you are referring to?" ”

"Li Shizhi, he was originally a friend of Li Linfu who was very optimistic, Li Linfu spent a lot of effort for him to put him in the position of Zuo Xiang, but this person threw himself into the prince's camp and stabbed him backhand, do you say that such a two-faced and three-faced character is not hateful?"

Seeing that no one responded, the old man continued to take care of himself and said: "Li Linfu is a great villain, so is it true that everyone who opposes him is a great loyal minister, and those who are with him are traitors and villains?" ”

Yu Lang looked at the old man fixedly, and asked solemnly, "Who are you?" ”

The old man pinched his nose and took another sip of tea, spitting out the inferior tea leaves: "I am Li Linfu." ”
