The wine vinegar noodle bureau is next to the church in Nishiku, and when you get closer, you can see some foreigners walking back and forth. Yang Lishan was born in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and is now working as a waiter in the Ministry of Industry.

When he first repaired the Summer Palace, he made a lot of money, with the furniture of the sky, it is said that there are countless treasures in the family, and there are more than 300 hanging pearls alone, which are changed once a day, and they are never the same. He and Naqinxuan in Goldfish Hutong are both well-known gourmets in Sijiu City, and they are very particular about eating, and their personal relationship with Li Lianying is also very thick.

Li Lianying and Tateyama are very good friends, and the three of them got out of the car, and they didn't have to go through, they walked in all the way, only to hear the sound of the huqin in the living room, and the play was going on inside. Li Lianying said with a smile: "Lishan is the protector of the pear orchard in Sijiu City, there must be a pear orchard disciple who can't live a life, and he knows it, so he invites him to sing it at home and gives them some money so that they can live." If I'm not mistaken, Zeonji is also there. ”

The second good man he said was the younger brother of King Su in the court, and he was good at it. He is a Shuzong, although he is not young, but his generation is only Puzi, and he is a generation shorter than Jin Shi.

Shigege and Tateyama have also seen each other in the past, everyone is a person on the scene, and it is inevitable to eat and drink together. It's just that at that time, Shigege was dressed as a man, and even asked for a strip to drink, which was no different from a man, and everyone got along well.

But today, since she changed into a woman's clothes, it is not good to treat each other like this anymore, and Lishan came out to meet a few people, and ordered a single table in the inner house to entertain Shigege, accompanied by his wife and daughter, and Zhao Guanhou stayed outside to sit with Li Lianying and others.

In the Lishan Mansion, one is known as Shanyu, and the other is Wang Zhao, who is in charge of the Ministry of Rites. Another escort is a chivalrous character in the pear orchard of the capital, Xiang Jiuxiao Tian Ruilin.

These people are either big or famous, and they are very famous in the capital, let alone ten grids, but Zhao Guanhou is not famous. In addition, he didn't wear an official uniform, and he didn't know what kind of person from the yamen was, so he didn't know what to do, but when he thought about being able to walk with Li Lianying, most of them were not unknowns, and he didn't dare to underestimate him.

Li Lianying introduced several people: "This Lord Zhao is the first-class talent under our Dajin, and you also know that in a few days, Prince Henry of Prussia will come." Our Lord Zhao is the No. 1 talent in handling foreign affairs, and he came from Jinmen specially to receive Prince Henry, and he was specially transferred from the newly built army. ”

As soon as Yang Lishan heard this, he knew that most of this person was King Qing's favorite general, and when he thought of Shigege wearing women's clothes in front of people for the first time, he was even more calculating in his heart. Between the words, he was polite and complimented Zhao Guanhou, and even with the second prince of goodness, he was also quite respectful to Zhao Guanhou.

Tian Ruilin remembered another thing: "Lord Zhao, could it be that some time ago, the famous severed finger crown marquis?" …… When Ling Zun was alive, he was very protective of the children of Tianjin Liyuan, and he was also a good friend of our Liyuan line. ”

Although he is only a good ling, he is worshiped in the inner court, and he enters the palace to sing for the queen mother. It may not be too difficult to make friends with him, but it is rare for him to take the initiative to make friends.

Shanyu is the most kind to the children of Liyuan, often debuts, and knows a lot in the streets and alleys, and laughs at the moment: "It's been a long time, Guanhou, you are the finger in Jinmen, and Haidilao is the one." I heard that you are in a small station, and you have also sung for Lafayette, one day the ticket will come out, I will invite the horn. ”

This clan is so witty, and he doesn't have any shelf, as soon as he mentions Peking Opera, his eyebrows are dancing, and the atmosphere at the banquet with him is very warm. Only Wang Zhao, the head of the Ministry of Rites, looked a little disapproving, and patted the table gently

"This Prince Henry has set out from Prussia with a fleet to demonstrate to us. Since ancient times, has any guest come to his master's house with a sword or a spear? Obviously he is a robber, but we want to treat him as a guest, how can there be such a reason in this world! The Prussians were eyeing Shandong with the intention of annexing it, and Jiaozhou Bay was the first good port in northern China, but it was forcibly leased by foreigners, and Weihai before it was also occupied by the Albians. Our own fleet, on the contrary, is very difficult to find a port to anchor. We can't defend the country, but we take Kou Qiu as our guests, and treat foreign envoys as an important thing, how can we protect the foundation of our ancestors in Japan? In this world, it has indeed reached the point where the law cannot be changed. ”

"Xiaohang, you have too much wine, right? Yang Si, let someone prepare a bowl of decanting soup for him, if you don't have such a large amount, don't drink so much wine. ”

Shanyu peeked at Li Lianying, for fear that Wang Zhao would be speechless and commit the taboo of this big celebrity in the palace, that is, he would not be able to eat and walk around.

Yang Lishan is an eight-sided and exquisite character, and he doesn't want to offend both sides. Li Lianying has a good personal relationship with him, but Wang Zhao is an upstart, and no one can say anything about his future prospects, so he hurriedly said:

"Since the defeat of the Goryeo army, the imperial court also wants to change the law and try to be strong, but such a big thing has to be done little by little, and it is not possible to achieve it quickly. What's more, now that the foreigners are outside, if a reception is not done properly, and the Prince Henry is annoyed and moves the sword, nothing will be changed. Unarmed, why fight in vain, always have to take your time, and when we develop strength, we don't have to be afraid of foreigners, right? ”

Li Lianying smiled and looked at Wang Zhao, "Lord Wang, listen to your tone, you must be very familiar with Mr. Changsu from the Nanhai Hall in Mishi Hutong, and most of the people in the Baoguo will have your brother, right?" ”

Wang Zhao puffed up his chest, "What General Manager Li said is not bad, and he is one of the initiators of the National Defense Association." ”

"Oh, that's right, this change, Tuqiang, it's fashionable to be in Beijing recently. When the Six Sages King was alive, he once talked to the old slave, who doesn't look at the wealth of the country and the strength of the army? There is nothing wrong with changing this method. It's just that you must be down-to-earth, you must be down-to-earth, you must know where to start, and you must know how to do it. If you are in a hurry to achieve success, and nothing can be considered a good result, I am afraid that the situation will be out of control, and it will be too late to regret it. ”

Although the Queen Mother returned to power, Li Lianying's words still made people feel that the wind was gusting and they shuddered, and Wang Xiaohang also felt that this wine was not a taste when he drank it in his mouth.

Zhao Guanhou hurriedly took over and said, "The law has changed unchanged, it is another matter, let's talk about this Prince Henry first, he is a guest from afar." Whether it is a villain or not, if someone comes, we have to receive it to show the temperament of the court Rouyuan. You can't always tell the truth, let people get caught, and then ask for money and land, and the situation will be even more ugly. ”

Yang Lishan was busy playing the round, "That's it, let's **** go to the country, we have to have a belly." I can't say that I have a long-cherished wish with others, and when a guest comes, the nose is not the nose, and the face is not the face, so I don't talk about friendship. The prince's reception is really cautious, let him know that our Dajin Kingdom is a state of etiquette. Let's treat each other with sincerity, he's always embarrassed to use knives and guns again, isn't he? ”

With him in the seams, the atmosphere is finally maintained well, and the chef of Yang Lishan's house is very good, and the dishes are also excellent. After the banquet was dismissed, Shigege and Zhao Guanhou carried Li Lianying out of the Yang Mansion, and Li Lianying smiled:

"The two of you, one is the master, and the other is a master who can do foreign affairs. To have the old slave's old bones in his eyes is to give the old slave face. The minion is not a person who doesn't know what to do, Guanhou, don't worry about your business. Now only Pang Delu is afraid of you, and there is absolutely no one you who is afraid of him. Including the Duandi side, it's the same. You are now an important person in foreign affairs, who of them provoked you, as soon as you put the car aside, the prince came, who will receive you? No one can afford such a heavy burden. So no matter how angry the Pang family is, these days, they can only be stuffy, but they don't dare to provoke you. When the prince is gone, as long as you do your errand well and leave a name that can do foreign affairs, they will not dare to touch you. ”

What he said was a guarantee, and with such a word, Zhao Guanhou's current safety was not a problem. He smiled and said: "In the capital, there are friends and enemies. The only people who can keep me safe are my friends. Prince Henry, not my friend, you are the talisman of the lowly position, with your old man's protection, no one is afraid of the lowly position. ”

"You're talking." Li Lianying smiled slightly, since the queen mother returned to power, his market has also dropped a little, and he has lost his original majesty, saying that there is no sense of loss in his heart, it is also a lie. There is such a person who stammers and gives him money, and the mood is different from the person who sent money in the past. This situation is comparable to sending charcoal in the snow, and looking at him is particularly pleasing to the eye.

When he was sent to the carriage, Li Lianying suddenly asked: "Guanhou, what do you think of the change that Wang Xiaohang said?" ”

"Change...... It's always a good thing, since ancient times, there is no immutable way. Because of the establishment of a law, it is applicable to the time, not to eternity, and it is an ordinary thing to adapt to the situation and save the picture by change. In fact, the imperial court has been changing the law, otherwise where would the general affairs of various countries come from, and where would the new army come from. It's just that what the general manager said is that the change of the law must always be done slowly, and it cannot be rushed. More important things must be done by people who can do things, and cannot be handed over to people who are good at speaking out and have no practical ideas. Let's just say that Kang Changsu in Mishi Hutong, he is just a man from a high background, he has never been an official in the local government, and he knows what kind of general affairs? If you let him say it, it will naturally be full of words, and if you want to say how to do these things, I am afraid that he is also a 'Mo slaughtering sheep'. ”

His last three words came out in Cantonese, Li Lianying was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "What a don't slaughter sheep." These three words, you can make the Buddha laugh all night. Don't go anywhere you live on Dong'an Street, maybe when you will be called, you will have to find someone. ”

When the carriage was leaving, Li Lianying suddenly poked his head out again, "Guanhou, take the time to buy something to prepare for filial piety, don't spend too much, look at your heart." Don't be too valuable, just a personal heart. But remember one thing: when buying jewelry, it must be red. ”

Hensmei shook his horsewhip and rushed towards Dong'an Street, and Wanyan Yuqing said to Zhao Guanhou: "It's all your fault, I gave the Baoguo a gift of ten big money, otherwise, now we have a friendship." Now the Baohui Association is popular, and it is hot in the capital, and the friends are also widespread. Although Kang Zuyi is only a six-rank Zhangjing, he has many big people who have dealings with him and has a great reputation. The sixth master who stopped him from being promoted also went, maybe it will be of great use in the future, you be careful, if he calculates you in the future, it will not be easy to do. When they change the law, the first thing they are afraid of is that they will move the officials, and pay attention to picking your top. ”

Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Yuqing, these people, say that they want to change the law, just listen to it, if you really want them to change, how can a group of people who have never been officials know how to do practice?" If the change is made by Huguang Zhang Xiangtao or Zhang Hefei, there is still something to do. But now, in the military plane, the emperor Weng Fangtian is the leader, and the following are people like Kang Zuyi, I really hope that this change will not work from the beginning, otherwise the world will be in chaos.
