When the idiot pointed to this teahouse, he saw that it was located on the side of the street and the storefront was not small. The seat is on the side of the street, and when everyone is in shift, it will not attract attention; The store is not small, and everyone is here to rest and save crowding.

The lord of the country was mourned, and all the soldiers and civilians in the city were well-dressed, and those who were qualified to wear filial piety clothes were people in the palace except for local civil and military officials.

Even if Dao Idiot and Gao Kang are not very old, they can declare their identities with a single body. The shopkeeper was very attentive, personally led the two to the private room, and instructed the men to get the best tea.

When the tea was served, the shopkeeper withdrew in a witty way, came to the side of the stunned outside, and inquired about the identities of the two people in the private room.

Stunned didn't answer, but looked at him carefully and said, "I look at the shopkeeper but has a good face, may I ask the shopkeeper's surname is Zhou?" ”

"It's the surname Zhou, this little brother knows Xiao Lao'er?" The shopkeeper replied.

Shocked smiled: "Sure enough, it's Uncle Zhou, I was an errand boy by the old lady's side earlier, I was given the outer nine rooms by the old lady last year, and now I am on an errand by the second son's side, and the Liqiu brothers are always with me day and night, and the upstairs is my son-in-law." ”

It turned out that the shopkeeper in front of him was not someone else, but the little guy next to Wang Qi, Liqiu's Lao Tzu. I saw it twice when I was a child, and I felt familiar.

Shopkeeper Zhou is one of the external managers of the sect, but he didn't expect to be in charge of this teahouse.

"The second son of the outer ninth room?" Shopkeeper Zhou's eyes widened, remembering that he had just received a deposit of twenty taels of silver, and he couldn't help but be worried.

Although he had never seen a Taoist idiot before, he also knew that Zongfang had treated the Outer Nine Rooms differently in the past two years, and the second son of Zongfang was not only a prominent biological father, but also entered the eyes of the old lady and entered the palace with his own seventh son.

This time, the second son took people to pack the teahouse, followed by the steaming soldiers. Shopkeeper Zhou was afraid of being responsible, so he didn't dare to call the shots, so after not being stunned, he called a young man and whispered to him to go to the sect to tell the eldest son.

At this time, the stunned sting also entered the private room and told the Taoist idiot the identity of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper is the manager of the Wang family's sect, so needless to say, this teahouse is the property of the sect.

The idiot said: "I really didn't expect that it would be the shop of the sect, which made the shopkeeper embarrassed." ”

Gao Kang said with a smile: "Although I have only been out of the house a few times, I also know that the Wang family is surnamed Anlu, and three or four percent of the transactions in and outside the city are from the Wang family, and it is not uncommon to meet the Wang family's teahouse." ”

Dao Idiot sighed and said: "Nothing else is good, my big brother is a thoughtful person, and when he gets the news, I'm afraid he will have to work hard." ”

Gao Kang nodded and said: "Speaking of the eldest son of the Wang family's clan, the prince also praised it before his death. ”

Sure enough, after half an hour, Wang Zhen hurried over.

The palace was in mourning, and the younger brother was also a member of the palace, but he slipped into the street, and there were many people around him, how not to make Wang Zhen worry.

The Taoist idiot invited him into the private room and said to Gao Kang: "This is my big brother, with a single name and a precious character." Then he said to Wang Zhen: "Big brother, this is the high-ranking official next to His Highness." ”

Seeing that he put Gao Kang in the honorable position in his introduction, Gao Kang and Wang Zhen were both slightly surprised. Both of them have a city government, and they are not obvious on their faces, but they are more and more polite between their words.

Gao Kang said: "It turned out to be the eldest son of the Wang family, and our family is polite here." ”

Wang Zhen hurriedly returned the salute and said: "I really don't dare to do it." I thought it was my little brother who was naughty and came out of the palace privately, and since there were high-ranking officials, it must have been ordered by His Royal Highness, but I had a lot of trouble. ”

When they met, the three of them took new seats.

Wang Zhen talked about the deposit downstairs, and said to the idiot: "Even if you come out on the orders of His Royal Highness and go to the shop at home, it will not be so 'clear between public and private'." Speaking of this, he took out the twenty taels of silver ingots from his sleeve that the shopkeeper had just accepted, and said, "Take it quickly, don't be ashamed of my brother." ”

The idiot didn't answer, and said: "If it's a day or two, it's okay, and you won't be polite to the eldest brother with a thick face." But who knows how long it will be used, maybe the entire funeral period will have to be covered. If my brother is like this, my brother and I can only take everyone to change places. If the eldest brother really cares about me, he only asks the shopkeeper to give a 20% discount, which is to give the younger brother dignity. ”

Wang Zhen knew that although the Taoist idiot was young, he had a good idea, so he said helplessly: "Don't mention what is not eight-fold, if you stay, just make a half-discount." If there is more, I will not dare to keep you. ”

Each took a step back, the two brothers were not ink, so they put down the matter of the teahouse and didn't mention it.

Wang Zhen thought that there were many houses in the Wang family, and the children and grandchildren had different advantages and disadvantages, so he had to say a word to Wang Zhen: "Your Highness is in a bad mood because of the death of the prince, and sent us to bring people out, also to prevent a small disturbance and disturb the funeral of the palace." After the eldest brother went back, he also asked his uncle and grandfather to restrain the clansmen during the funeral period in the palace. If it is really ugly, it will cause His Highness to be angry, not only will he have no face with his aunt, but he will be careful that His Highness will attack the Wang family. ”

Wang Zhen saw that the idiot said these "private words" and did not avoid Gao Kang, so she couldn't help but tighten her heart and quietly looked at Gao Kang. Seeing that he was just smiling and listening, nothing unusual, he relaxed a little.

Wang Zhen knew in her heart that the Taoist idiot was so unavoidable, mostly because of the good friendship between the two people; But I still feel that the idiot is young and a little incomplete.

The words on the side may not avoid Gao Kang, but as for the words that the prince is in a bad mood and Xu will be angry with outsiders, how can he say it casually? In case this Gao Kangxue is taught to the prince, the prince may be disgusted with a lot of tongues.

He said, "I know that you are the most worried, so don't worry." Even if the family is unable to share the worries of His Highness, it will not cause chaos to His Highness. When you and your seventh brother go out on an errand, you must be cautious in your seriousness, and you must not slack off because of your young age and let down Your Highness. Otherwise, even if His Royal Highness is merciful and can't pull his face to punish the two of you, my grandfather will have to ask you to taste the bamboo meat. ”

He lifted the eldest brother's shelf, which made the originally dull atmosphere in the room much lighter.

Dao idiot smiled: "Speaking of being young, what am I? Serious young, now in the North City. Speaking of which, he talked about Lu Bing's visit to Beicheng, and finally did not forget to say: "Although Lu Bing is young, he can take care of Seventh Brother and me in Fuxue, if the eldest brother meets, please take care of one or two." ”

Wang Zhen heard Lu Bing from Wang Qi and knew that he was the son of the world, and he was two years younger than the Taoist idiot.

Hearing that Lu Bing was also on an errand patrolling the streets, Wang Zhen was shocked and felt that it was too child's play. But considering the age of the son, it is not unusual to be willing to read it with these young companions.

He thought about it for a while, and then said: "I don't dare to say anything to other people, if it is a child of the Wang family, there will never be an eye-opening mess for Lu Xiaogongzi." ”

After saying this, he mentioned the great funeral of the royal palace. Only then did the idiot know that Wang Zhen's younger brother and the second son of the Zongjia family, Wang Xuan, was a jinshi five years ago, and he joined the pedestrian division as an errand boy, and now he is the right deputy of the seventh grade. Don't look at the grade of the pedestrian division is not high, the chief official is not more than the seventh grade, but it is in charge of the decree, canonization and other things, where the edict is issued, the canonization of the clan, the four directions, the recruitment of talents, and rewards, condolences, relief, military affairs, sacrifices, etc., the imperial court has sent its pedestrians to envoys.

"The imperial court will always send people over, I don't know if your second brother will take this errand." Wang Zhen said with some anticipation.

The idiot didn't answer. Now Wang Zhen is looking forward to this, and when the news of King Ning's rebellion comes in a few days, I am afraid that Wang Xuan will be afraid......

Thinking that the idiot was out of the house on an errand, Wang Zhen didn't stay long, said a few more words, and said goodbye to the two and went home.

The teahouse also serves some simple meals, and the Taoist idiot called the shopkeeper to arrange it. By the time the first batch of five groups of people on duty returned, the ones here had already finished their lunch and went out on patrol.

Although the food was prepared, the people who came back did not start immediately, and a few guards came over first to talk to Dao Idiot and Gao Kang about the harvest of the morning inspection.

The troublemakers were nowhere to be seen, but when they encountered a few gangs of ruffians making trouble, they fled after shouting a few times.

The idiot listened carefully, and always felt that something was wrong, looking at the appearance of the people on their faces, he was relieved, and said: "Whether it's a ruffian or a scoundrel, change the time, no one will stop you from teaching them a lesson." Not now, Your Highness is afraid that someone will disturb the royal palace for funeral, so I waited here, and what I asked for was the stability of the place. If it was because of you, the little man and dog on the pole jumped off the wall and made a noise, and everyone would have no face. ”

Everyone was stunned, and most of their spirits immediately decreased by half, and they drooped their heads and went downstairs to eat.

Gao Kang's gaze at the Taoist idiot became more and more convincing.

Dao idiot lowered his eyes, what is so hard to guess? Since ancient times, a family of soldiers and bandits. Xicheng is rich, and everyone is ordered to come over in front of them, and there is a banner to carry. It seems that the ruffians and hooligans they are worried about are actually mostly eyeing those prosperous shops, trying to find a way to scrape oil and water......
