At night, when the lamp was in charge, Ding Qian came to Ding Wei's mansion as promised, and the servant said, "Young nephew, my lord is waiting for you in the study." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Ding Qian came to the study, saw Ding Wei sitting on a chair, saw Ding Qian coming in, stretched out his hand and pointed to a chair next to him and said, "Sit down!" Drink tea! ”

Ding Qian looked at Ding Wei like this, and didn't dare to make a sound, just holding the tea, sipping slowly, and the study was suddenly quiet and could only hear the sound of two breathing, for a long time, Ding Wei stood up with a long sigh, put his hands behind his back, and paced back and forth in the study.

Only then did Ding Qian raise his head and say, "Uncle, I don't know what happened to you asking Ding Si to find your nephew." ”

Ding Wei sighed again, and said with a look of wanting to speak: "Alas, Ding Qian, I really don't know how to open my mouth to you." ”

Ding Qianxin said: "The two of us are now both prosperous and lossy, and they are already two grasshoppers tied to a rope, what are you still playing." ”

Thinking of this, Ding Qian said: "Uncle, is there anything unfavorable to you in the court?" ”

Ding Wei shook his head and said, "That's not true. ”

Ding Qian said: "That's good, then what else makes my uncle so embarrassed." ”

Ding Wei sat back in his chair and said, "Ding Qian, it will be Kou Zhun and Lord Kou's birthday in seven days." ”

When Ding Qian heard that a stone in his heart had fallen to the ground, he said: "Oh, so that's the case, Lord Kou has a birthday, is it not that all officials have to give birthday gifts." ”

Ding Wei nodded and said, "Yes, I'm worried about this matter." ”

Ding Qian smiled and said, "Uncle, what is there to worry about like this, as long as it is something that can be done with silver, it is not a worry." ”

Ding Wei smiled bitterly and said: "Ding Qian, you are not in the officialdom, I don't know the complexity of the officialdom, you said that if this gift is given less, Lord Kou will not look down on it, if you give it too much, but I am a little tight now." ”

Ding Qiandao: "Uncle, you say, how many taels of silver do you want to give?" ”

Ding Wei said in an aggravated tone: "Ding Qian, you also know that Uncle and I have worked hard for so many years to get a general official position, so I want to be promoted one step further, so I want to take this opportunity to give Lord Nakou a birthday gift of 100,000 silver." ”

Ding Qian looked like he had a big bag and said, "Uncle, isn't it just 100,000 taels of silver, it's good to wrap it on me." Then Ding Qian said: "Uncle, this Lord Kou has a birthday, and there must be a lot of people who give gifts, I'm afraid it is not very useful to only give silver." ”

Ding Wei said: "Of course, can there be fewer people who give gifts to Kou Laoxi on his birthday this time, but if he doesn't give silver, what else can he give!" ”

Ding Qian said: "Then uncle, can you tell your nephew what hobbies this Master Kou has, I will help you analyze and analyze, what other gifts should we give." ”

So Ding Wei told Ding Qian about the history of Kou Zhun.

This Kou Zhun is Emperor Taizong's Taiping rejuvenation of the country for five years, others are admitted to the Jinshi, it can be said that it takes all the effort to eat milk and may not be able to pass the test, but this Kou Zhun from Shanxi is not that ordinary cannon, he was just nineteen years old when he was admitted to the Jinshi, and it was a good time in his prime.

At that time, Kou Zhun knew very well that modesty makes people progress, and pride makes people backward, although he was very good at that time, but he has been holding his tail to be a man, so he has won a good reputation in the officialdom, and has risen step by step, especially in the first year of Jingde, because he persuaded Emperor Zhenzong to drive the expedition in person, and regardless of the safety of his life, Emperor Zhenzong personally commanded the defense of Lanzhou, forced Liao to sign a peace treaty, and made great achievements, so as to shine in the Central Plains, become the emperor's minister, and occupy the position of the right prime minister, such as the sky, the power is prominent, Ding Wei wants to go to the next level in officialdom, then he has to pat Kou Zhun's ass.

However, but, Kou Zhun's sycophants are not so easy to shoot.

Since Kou Zhun became the prime minister, especially the alliance of the Yuanyuan, he felt that he had made great contributions, and his official promotion had a long temper, and his tail was raised to the sky, and he changed the style of courtesy, gentleness and frugality in the past, and began to pursue a luxurious life.

Wherever Kou Zhun goes, there will be carnivals. At night, when passers-by saw the colorful lights of Kou Zhun's mansion, they all envied the rich man of the master's family, thinking that it was the rows of oil lamps lit in Kou's mansion. But Kou Zhun never lit an oil lamp, he felt that it was not in line with his status as a prime minister, and the brightness was not enough.

He had his servants light arm-thick red candles all over the house, even in the kitchen and toilet. The candlelight shines like day.

Kou Zhun loves to drink, but there is wine without singing and dancing, which can be worthy of the identity of the prime minister and the luxury of the prime minister's mansion. Therefore, at every banquet in Kou Zhun's mansion, there are beautiful women like clouds smiling with spring breezes, dancing lightly like butterflies.

Kou Zhun loves wine, and he is good at singing and dancing in the whole Tokyo Bianliang City, which I don't know, I don't know.

Ding Qian nodded after listening to Ding Wei's narration and said, "Uncle, since this is the case, I'm afraid that it is far from enough to give money on Lord Kou's birthday. ”

Ding Wei said: "Oh, then what other tricks do you have?" ”

Ding Qian thought for a while and said, "I think you should also send a singing and dancing girl to Master Kou, so that you can do what you like and make him have a deeper impression of you." ”

Ding Wei was a little embarrassed and said: "Ding Qian, Master Kou is the prime minister of the dynasty, and there are no singing and dancing girls in the Central Plains, Jiangnan, Mobei, Western Xia, and somewhere." Let's go up there and find a kabuki who can make Lady Kou look at her. ”

Ding Qian smiled and said, "Uncle." Others can't find it, I can find it, don't forget that I once set up a Fantasia costume performance team, I think it would be better to pick one of these girls, and then train her to dance some ingenious songs and dances, then Master Kou will be happy. ”

Ding Wei slapped the table happily when he heard this: "Okay, Ding Qian, I didn't expect you to come up with such a good plan." If you don't enter the court to become an official, you will really be blind to this piece of material. ”

Ding Qian said humbly: "Uncle, I'm not the material to be an official, as long as you can get promoted." ”

Ding Wei said: "Okay, I'll leave this birthday gift to you, but you must not tell anyone about it."

Ding Qianyi smiled and said, "Uncle, you just have to rest assured." The nephew knows what to do. ”

Ding Wei listened to the servant who hurriedly shouted: "You hurry up and tell the kitchen, fry four good dishes and bring them to the study, and we will have a few drinks." ”

Through the conversation with Ding Wei, Ding Qian knew that Kou Zhun was not as incorruptible as modern imagination, and it was true that Kou Zhun was indeed a loyal minister, but he was not a clean official.

Although now, Ding Qian's hand does not have much silver, but since he has promised Ding Wei, he must go all out to act, not to mention, with Ding Wei's ascension, his own benefits are not only a few hundred thousand silver can be stopped!

I can't help the child can't trap the wolf, and there is no input that has output.

In fact, Ding Wei wants to be a big official and wants to progress, which is not wrong.

The desire for human existence is very simple, that is, the process of generating desires, satisfying desires, and then generating new desires. If you are a wandering beggar along the street, you will never dare to covet any phase, but when you are in the general judgment, or a high-ranking official of Shilang, there is someone who does not want to climb up, not to mention, during the Great Song Dynasty, due to the statecraft strategy of Taizu Zhao Kuangyin to suppress Wu Yangwen, all kinds of inferior products, only high reading, was the most basic pursuit of the Chinese people in that period, and thus promoted the development of Chinese culture, making the Song Ci, a wonderful literary in Chinese history, show dazzling brilliance.

In order to help Ding Wei realize his political ideals, and also to satisfy his desire for money, Ding Qian came to the Hongdian Banknote Transportation Bureau, found Yu Da Shopkeeper and looked up and down a few times and deliberately said: "Oh, how has Yu Da Shopkeeper cleared a lot recently." ”

The shopkeeper Yu grinned and said, "I've slept less recently, can I not lose it?" ”

Ding Qian leaned in front of the big shopkeeper and said, "The big shopkeeper Yu, the taste of the golden house is good!" ”

The shopkeeper shook his huge head and said, "Of course." Shopkeeper Ding, my goddaughter really didn't say anything. ”

Ding Qian smiled and said: "That's good, looking for a woman, the key is to have your heart for yourself." ”

The shopkeeper slapped his hands and said loudly: "Brother, you are so right, it is really a hero's sight." ”

Ding Qian said: "I don't know if the shopkeeper Yu has time, if he has time, call Yang Liu, let's find a restaurant to sit and have a few drinks." ”

The shopkeeper Yu glanced at Ding Qian slyly and said, "Brother, do you have anything to do when you come to me, let's talk to whom, if you have something, just say it directly." ”

This is a man, as long as a woman is mentioned, the relationship is invisibly much closer, especially between the big shopkeeper and Yang Liu, or Ding Qian.

Ding Qian held Yu Da's shopkeeper's stinky feet and said: "Brother Yu is really aware of everything, yes, I have something to ask you." ”

Yu Da Shopkeeper took out a look of an uncertain prophet and said: "Isn't it, there are difficulties in capital turnover, let's talk about how much it will use." ”

Ding Qian stretched out his palm and flipped it and said, "One hundred thousand!" ”

The shopkeeper pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, but I'm afraid the profit is higher." ”

Ding Qian said: "It's okay to have a higher profit, you are in this business, you can't do a loss-making business!" It's best for our brothers to settle accounts. ”

The shopkeeper Yu stretched out his hand and patted Ding Qian's shoulder and said, "Brother, speak clearly!" Brother likes people of your character. Come on, we'll take care of the formalities. ”

The matter of silver has been settled, and the next step is to select a girl from the Fantasia performance team to train her, and then send it to Lord Kou Zhun's prime minister's mansion.

Ding Qian carefully counted the girls in the Fantasia performance team in his heart, before the Fantasia performance team was disbanded, there were a total of 16 girls such as Hu Ge, Qiu Ju, Su Cherry, Xia He, Yang Liu, Yingxia, etc., and now Hu Ge has been engaged to himself, Su Cherry, Xia He, and Yang Liu have also climbed the high branches, which can be said to be the master of famous flowers. There are only eight girls left, including Qiu Ju and Yingxia.

Qiu Ju is currently entangled with herself, that can't be considered, among the remaining ten girls, only Yingxia girl is beautiful and empathetic, which can be created. But Miss Yingxia has not been in contact for a long time, if you take the liberty to find someone, I am afraid it will cause criticism, if you let Hu Ge go to find Miss Yingxia, I am afraid that Hu Ge has other ideas.

Thinking about it, it is best for Qiu Ju to come forward and talk to Yingxia about this matter.

A man's psychology is often very strange, and he would rather bury many things in his heart than tell his wife or fiancée, but he is willing to say it to another woman who is not bound by the marriage relationship.

Ding Qian wants to go to Qiu Ju, but he is afraid that it will be bad for others to know, what is the matter with you as a big man going to find a girl's house, especially Ding Qian also heard from other girls that Qiu Ju's mother is very troublesome. The most important thing is that Ding Qian has always felt sorry for others since he had a skin-to-skin relationship with Qiu Ju, to put it bluntly, this is called having a ghost in his heart, once a person has a ghost in his heart, he does not dare to face the reality.

However, this matter still has to be done, Ding Qian thought about it and came up with an idea.

Ding Qian called Niu Wu over and said, "Niu Wu, do you know Miss Qiu Ju?" ”

Niu Wu nodded and said: "I know, the neighbors who have lived in the neighborhood for many years have a reason not to know." ”

Ding Qian said: "Then can you go to Qiu Ju's house, tell her, and say that I have something to do with her." ”

Niu Wu looked at Ding Qian and said, "Shopkeeper Ding, what are you afraid of when you go to the door to find something?" ”

Ding Qian smiled bitterly and said: "Niu Wu, you know that I am already engaged to Hu Ge, so it's not good to find a girl like this, and besides, I heard that Qiu Ju's mother is a mother, so I can only trouble you." ”

Niu Wu smiled slyly and said: "Hehe, shopkeeper Ding, nine times out of ten, you have taken a fancy to Qiu Ju's girl!" ”

Ding Qian glared and said, "Niu Wu, don't talk about it there." I asked you to go to Miss Qiu Ju because I asked her for help with an important matter. ”

Niu Wu stretched out his hand and scratched his scalp and said: "Okay, even if I am honest, but shopkeeper Ding, if you have any thoughts about Miss Qiuju, it is normal, a big shopkeeper like you, that person is not very good." Don't worry, I'll give her an appointment to you. ”

Ding Qian shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, you go quickly!" ”
