Chapter 707: Brother Gongming
Before lunch, a wave of guests was sent off, and Lotte and a group of concubines gathered around the big table for dinner, and no one in the family said anything at the moment, as if they had their own thoughts.
"The master is busy as an official, but I didn't expect to be even busier when I resigned!" Finally, Ryoko broke the silence at the dinner table and muttered.
"yes!" Mei Hongkou agreed, and then laughed: "In the past few days, the tenants at home have been endless, and the lord has been picking up guests all day long, I'm afraid that the sister in the kiln is still busy!" ”
"Poof......
Listening to Mei Hong's words, the concubines of the Le family laughed out loud in unison.
"!" Hearing Mei Hong's complaints, Lotte was very faceless and angry and reprimanded, but if you think about it, it's really the truth, now I sit at home all day long, and I can't be idle for a moment when I keep picking up customers.
The quiet and leisurely happy life that Le Hou Ye resigned, and the expected quiet and leisurely happy life did not come as expected by the concubines of the Le family, and there were inevitably many grievances in his heart.
Born in the boudoir embroidery building since childhood, I don't know how many people are sophisticated Wang Xiaofei After stopping her laughter, she asked Lotte very strangely: "The concubine is very strange, the world has always been cold and tight, I think that after my family was raided by my husband, no one dared to come to my door, why after the master resigned, there were more people at home." ”
Regarding Concubine Wang's question, Lotte was quite proud: "Your father and my father-in-law are doing smuggling and tax evasion, but your husband and I are for the sake of all the people, for the sake of Dangshan Sheji, and what your husband does represents the people's desire and is admired by everyone!" ”
"Puff......" This time it was Mei Hong's turn to laugh.
"Laughing at what?" Lotte Xin was also a little annoyed by Fang Cai Mei Hong making fun of herself, and said: "Look at my great Song Dynasty Gong Gong Gong, who dares to speak out like me, now your master and I not only represent righteousness, but also a good man who stands up to the sky, and there will be people who come here." ”
Mei Hong continued to laugh: "At home, the master still has the tone of being an official when he is outside!" ”
"What's the tone?" Concubine Qu asked puzzled.
"Have you all read the recent newspapers?" Mei Niangzi asked, and then said: "Our lord criticized the government for the people's request for life and abandoned his post in anger, at this time, not only Biandu wants to come to Gyeonggi The deeds of the lord are being recited all around, or it won't be long before the people of the entire Great Song Dynasty know, and it is only a matter of time before the revival is a matter of time. ”
Hearing this, the concubines of the Le family were stunned. Now that their master has made a big reputation, these people naturally want to rub a little prestige.
The matter was explained thoroughly, and Lotte, who was picking up rice in his mouth, looked at Mei Niangzi in surprise: "Mei Niangzi has seen the affairs of officialdom very thoroughly?" ”
Mei Niangzi said: "The concubine doesn't understand the affairs of officialdom, but when she saw that the lord didn't care, and saw the newspaper and the lord singing praises to virtue, the famous people in Biandu rushed to our house in fear, and they felt a little clue!" ”
At this time, Concubine Yao said: "According to the slave family, the resignation of the lord is the most correct move, the lord has angered the officials and the powerful, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be degraded to the border wasteland, now the lord has resigned from the official is not an official of the court, the court has no way to degrade the lord, and I and other weak women are also exempt from the pain of traveling!" ”
Mei Niangzi and Concubine Yao have both been Liang Shicheng's concubines, so they naturally know more about officialdom.
Remembering that there was an appointment in the evening, Lotte instructed Lingzi: "You tell the porter outside that the master will go out in the afternoon, and he will not see the guests!" ”
Hearing Lotte say this, Mei Hong asked very unhappily: "Where is the master going today?" ”
Before Lotte could answer, a porter outside the door called: "Master, Xu Gou is an official and asks to see you!" ”
In the past, Lotte was not in Biandu, there was no man in the house, and the gatehouse was guarded by the mother-in-law found in Yipingyu's hometown, but now Lotte is at home, and the gatehouse is naturally guarded by the doorman, and the original gatehouse mother-in-law is used to control the gatehouse of the back house.
Xu will come, Lotte immediately realized the difference, Xu will be eight out of ten nine with the meaning of Yun Wang Zhao Kai, so he must see.
Seeing General Xu, General Xu bowed and said: "Why did the Hou Ye go to work in the court, His Royal Highness the King of Yun did not order the humble post to ask, but His Royal Highness wants to send a few words to the Hou Ye to you!" ”
Lotte hurriedly bowed and said: "The grass people respectfully listen to the jade sound of His Royal Highness King Yun!" ”
General Xu said: "Your Highness said that the Hou Ye was originally young and ambitious, but now he has resigned from his post, is he sad and angry?" Is it sorrowful? Boredom or not? Is it sad? Confused? ”
"What does Your Highness mean?" Lotte was puzzled.
Xu Jiang further said: "Since Hou Ye is asking for his life for the people and sharing worries for the country and abandoning the official to resign, he wants to show the appearance of worrying about the country and the people, but the lower officials see that Hou Ye has endless guests every day, and he drinks and has fun in the wine shop every night, which seems to be happy and tight, so that people who don't know think that he is congratulating Hou Ye on your Qingyunzhi!" ”
Hearing this, Lotte immediately gasped, he was a little carried away, and listening to the meaning of Xu Jiang's words, political enemies such as Huizong Zhao Ji or Wang Hao had already begun to send people to spy on him.
Lotte only then realized that now that he was dismissed, and he was still happy and happy, the more unhappy those people were, and the Son of Heaven knew about it, and he couldn't dissipate the anger in his heart.
At this time, Xu Jiang said again: "Fan Xianggong of this dynasty once wrote sentences such as 'Ning Ming and die, not live silently', 'The worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world', how can Hou Ye not make a sentence that has been passed down through the ages? ”
Lotte can't help but feel annoyed, at this time, grief and anger are his main theme, and sadness is his keynote...... And he didn't have the appearance of hanging the crown Du Men at all.
Thinking of Zeng Xiaoyi, Lotte asked: "Previously, I ordered you to inquire about a person named Yan Xiaoyi, how can you investigate?" ”
"Master Hou, forgive me for my incompetence!" Xu Jiang hurriedly said: "Jingdong and Hebei Zhulu are in turmoil due to the rebellion of the people in the public fields, and the subordinates can't find out the origin of this person for the time being!" ”
……
After Xu Jiang left, Lotte instructed: "Lingzi, and the front porter said that the master is in poor health, and he will thank the guests behind closed doors, and everyone who is invited to see him will not be seen!" ”
When it was approaching, Lotte Destiny Shakuchi quietly opened the back door and called an ox cart to go to Zhen'an Fang.
Although it is said that the crown is hung on Dumen, there are still some things that still need to be done.
Entering the courtyard of Master Li in Zhen'an Fang, Master Li, who heard the report from his subordinates, greeted him: "Master Hou is here, and the concubine's face is very glorious!" ”
Lotte said with a smile: "I heard that the master girl and the Yan Xiaoyi Yan official worshipped the sister and brother? ”
"It's true!" Master Li welcomed Lotte into the pavilion and personally poured tea for Lotte: "The concubine's sworn brother heard that Hou Ye directly advised His Majesty to go to the public field and should be angry and abandoned his post, and his heart admired Hou Ye tightly, and he was not very familiar with Hou Ye, so he was introduced to the concubine and admired Hou Ye. ”
"The teacher girl is smiling!" Lotte shook his head: "Le is incompetent, and he can't persuade His Majesty, he is really ashamed of the people of the world!" ”
"Your Majesty's temperament and concubine body still know a little, Master Hou, you are right, but the method is a little extreme!" Master Li said with a smile.
With a smile on his face, Lotte didn't speak, but said in his heart that if I am not extreme, who in the world knows that I am loyal and good, and how to make the next plan.
At this time, I only heard Master Li say again: "It's just that Master Hou, you have been behaving a little abnormally recently, which makes the official family more and more displeased!" ”
Obedient voice, obviously Huizong Zhao Ji has come to look for Master Li recently, and it seems that he has mentioned himself in his conversation.
Master Li said: "On that day, Your Majesty came to sit here with the concubine, and the concubine took the two poems of the Hou Ye to His Majesty to comment, and after His Majesty praised two sentences, when he heard that it was made by the Hou Ye, he was angry!" ”
Lotte understands that Master Li is obviously selling his favors.
I don't know what Master Li meant, Lotte had to say perfunctorily: "Angering Tianyan, Your Majesty has not punished Le Mou is the emperor's grace!" ”
Master Li said: "Hou Ye has angered His Majesty, and it is said that Hou Ye has also increased his prestige every day because of the full number of guests and friends, which has made His Majesty feel more and more that Hou Ye is using His Majesty to brush up his reputation!" ”
I don't know if Master Li said this intentionally or unintentionally, Lotte seemed to be peeped into his heart, and hurriedly said: "Le has never dared to have this intention!" ”
Master Li continued: "So Hou Ye wants to make some gestures to show His Majesty, let Your Majesty see that Hou Ye is worried about the country and the people, and you are not using Your Majesty to brush up your prestige!" ”
"Please teach me!" Lotte was busy. While speaking, Lotte finally understood from Master Li's words, thinking that Yang Jian, Liang Shicheng, Wang Hao and others must have slandered themselves in front of Zhao Ji.
"Hou Ye is the famous peach blossom nunnery master of my Great Song Dynasty, now Hou Ye is no longer an official, he is a merry and famous man, in order to show Hou Ye's heart of worrying about the country and the people, Hou Ye wants to indulge in love, sound and sex, to borrow wine to drown his sorrows, and to play the wind and moon to send his nostalgia!" Master Li said.
"Thank you for your advice!" Lotte instantly understood that under the slanderous words of Wang Hao, Liang Shicheng, Yang Jian and others, Zhao Ji had already regarded himself as using him to brush up his reputation, so now that he is indulgent and erotic, he will put out the reputation of being lustful, and he will immediately wash away Zhao Jixin's opinion of himself.
And he was supposed to be this romantic and lustful look, but if he didn't do this, it would make him more and more like he was inviting a name to buy a straight one.
"Sister, I'm here!"
At this moment, a voice came in from outside the door, and Lotte and Master Li looked at each other, and Lotte's pupils couldn't help shrinking.
The person who spoke was Yan Xiaoyi, and it was okay for Yan Xiaoyi to walk in front, but there was still a person behind Yan Xiaoyi. And it was this person who made Lotte's eyes shrink, and he saw that this person was black and short......
"Brother Xiaoyi, who is this?" Master Li was also slightly startled when he saw the black dwarf man, and said.
Yan Xiaoyi came into the house, but he put his figure to the side and said, "Brother Gongming, little brother is here to introduce you!" ”
