Chapter 7: A Chance Encounter in a Restaurant (2)

Regarding the names of the four people in front of him, Ling Feng can be said to be like thunder, Han Ziyu, Han Zixu, and Huang Linggong have all seen them earlier, and Huang Daoyi, who is sitting opposite now, is also a big person.

Hearing that there was a person named this by the garrison general of Kaiyuan County, Ling Feng carefully looked at the person in front of him, and was a little firmer in the conjecture in his heart, but all generals should have a murderous aura, and Huang Daoyi in front of him had it.

"Brother Ling, are you going to the imperial capital?"

Han Ziyu asked suddenly.

Ling Feng nodded: "The imperial court has abolished the system of recommending scientific examinations and changed to donating officials, Ling is not talented, and he also wants to contribute to the country, so he scattered all his wealth to donate officials to the imperial capital." ”

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the four people present were different, Han Ziyu was nothing, he was still the same hanging, drinking wine from time to time; He didn't care, but it didn't mean that others didn't care, and Huang Jiyi, who was sitting on the side at this time, was ugly, and even a little angry.

He was born in the first class of scientific research, and for the garrison general of Kaiyuan County, I don't know how much effort he put in, which is really hard-won; But now, as long as an individual can be an official, as long as you have money, what kind of broken system is this, Huang Daoyi is extremely unfair in his heart.

At this time, when it came out of Ling Feng's mouth, he didn't give Ling Feng a good face, he snorted coldly, and pinned his head to the side, this move made Ling Feng inexplicable.

Huang Linggong sighed: "As soon as the official donation system is opened, the people of the world will suffer again." ”

"Huang Linggong said cautiously, I don't dare to let people hear this." Han Zi was startled and reminded softly.

Huang Linggong disagreed: "Isn't what I said wrong?" ”

Han Zixu: ". ”

"Brother Ling, do you understand what Huang Ling meant?" Han Ziyu looked at Ling Feng with a smile, and his move had the meaning of questioning.

Ling Feng thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I am a businessman, so I naturally look at it from the perspective of a businessman; Donating an official is like selling an official, the imperial court's move can collect a lot of money in a very short time, but in the long run, it is particularly disadvantageous, and it is really self-defeating! ”

When Ling Feng said this, Han Ziyu, Huang Linggong and the others present were slightly surprised, it was very good that Ling Feng, a businessman, had such an opinion.

Huang Ling said fairly: "Then tell me again, what's wrong?" And how can it be self-defeating? ”

Ling Feng said: "But all the people who buy officials are landlords and big families with a lot of money, these people all value money in their eyes, they spend money to buy officials, how can they do a loss-making business?" When he returns to his own county, he will definitely exploit the poor people on a large scale, and in the long run, the world will not be able to think about chaos, and where there is oppression, there will be resistance. ”

"Well said!"

Huang Linggong praised: "I can't imagine that you, a small businessman, have such an opinion, but it's a pity that Your Majesty can't understand such a clear truth." ”

"Huang Linggong, there are many people here, be cautious, be cautious." Han Zixu was in a cold sweat, even the emperor dared to arrange it, if it was passed into the court, he was afraid that it would be in vain again. When Huang Linggong was kicked out of the court, it was because he was outspoken, but he didn't expect that his temperament has not changed now.

Huang Ling said fairly: "What are you afraid of, the old man's words are for those people in the court." ”

Han Zixu shook his head, it was hard to say anything, he knew Huang Linggong's temper, and there was no room for sand in his eyes, since the new decree was issued, he had been sighing almost every day, I am afraid that he had secretly scolded the emperor of the imperial capital countless times.

"Oh, don't talk about it, drink and drink." Han Ziyu smiled softly and picked up the wine bottle.

When he said this, the atmosphere at the scene eased, and everyone picked up the wine bottle and drank it all.

"Haha, that's right, as the saying goes, if you don't have a position to do it, you can't seek it, Huang Linggong, you haven't been a counselor for so long, what the hell are you doing?"

Han Ziyu said with a smile.

Huang Linggong rolled his eyes: "You drunkard, you know how to drink all day long, why don't you get drunk to death." ”

"Haha, it's better to be drunk."

Ling Feng also laughed with everyone: "Brother Ziyu, my hometown has a hundred years of aging, I don't know if you are interested?" ”

"Really?"

Hearing this, Han Ziyu's eyes were full of stars, as if he had seen a beauty, and a blazing light flashed in his eyes.

Ling Feng said: "Of course it's true, I bought it at a high price, it's sweet in the mouth, and the aftertaste is endless." ”

Han Ziyu secretly swallowed his saliva, eager to eat the hundred-year-old wine immediately; There are countless water and wine in the world, but there are not many that have really been presented for a hundred years, just like a rare treasure, which can not be found.

But after thinking about it, he calmed down again: "Brother Ling, you don't want me to go to Chuangu County with you, that place is too far away, I won't go." ”

A look of disappointment flashed on Ling Feng's face, but then he calmed down again, it was indeed a bit whimsical to want to kidnap Han Ziyu with a pot of wine.

"How can I let you go in person, when I have the opportunity, I will bring you the wine."

"Haha, then I'll wait."

Han Ziyu laughed, picked up the wine jug on the table and pecked it violently.

It can be seen that he is a person who loves wine very much, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a wine fairy, Ling Feng shook his head with a wry smile, although wine is a good thing, you can't drink too much, and if you drink too much, you will inevitably make a mistake.

At this time, on the right side of everyone, two strong men were discussing something in a low voice, although the voices of the two were very small, Ling Feng and the others still heard it.

"Hey, brother, I heard that General Fuyuan returned from the Yi tribe and was stripped of his military power!"

"I've heard about it a long time ago, and I've heard that the general was sent back to his hometown because he got drunk at a banquet and offended His Majesty."

"How can it be!"

Huang Linggong slapped the wine table, extremely angry.

"Huang Linggong, don't get excited." Han Zi humbly kicked in his heart and hurriedly pulled him back.

Han Ziyu said with a smile: "Huangling Gong, didn't I tell you, if you are not in your position and do not seek politics, what are you doing when you are angry." ”

"Your Majesty has gone too far, isn't this chilling the soldiers in front?" Obviously, Huang Linggong and others also just learned the news.

He took a deep breath: "Confused! ”

Dare to scold the emperor is confused, I am afraid that there is no one in the world, and everyone present is shocked.

"Huang Linggong, you don't understand this, this is the emperor's technique, the emperor's move is intended to suppress the arrogant soldiers, and it is also forced by the times."

Ling Feng said: "But what you said is also right, what you did was a bit too much, and it was really difficult to accept." ”

Among the five people present, only Huang Daoyi, who had not spoken for a long time, had a slightly happy face, he and General Fuyuan had a little bit of a holiday, he should have gone to conquer the Yi people, but in the end he was robbed, now it is good, the battle is won, but not only did not get any reward, but became nothing.

"It's good that I didn't go in the first place."

Huang Daoyi secretly rejoiced.

"Xiao Feng, I think you should not go to the imperial capital, such a court, you still work for him?"

Huangling is fair.

Ling Feng really pinched a cold sweat for him, and his words became more and more bold, and he dared to scold the imperial court, if he heard this, he was afraid that Huang Linggong's head would be moved; Han Zixu looked left and right, for fear that someone would eavesdrop.

"Thank you Huang Linggong for reminding me, I only came here after selling all my family property, how can I give up easily."

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Ling Feng stood up at this time, toasted a glass of wine to the four of them, and said: "Everyone, meeting is fate, being able to drink and chat with you is really a great joy in life, but unfortunately I still have important things to do, I have to go to the imperial capital, and I ask you to forgive me, and when I meet you next time, I will get drunk with you again." ”

After finishing speaking, Ling Feng arched his hand towards the four of Huangling Gong, greeted Xiao Anzi, and left.
