Chapter 59: The Eve of Leaving Beijing (First Update)
From Dong'anmen to the south, the lively and noisy noise gradually faded away, and when you reached East Chang'an Street, you no longer heard of each other.
Shen Li's family lives in Zhengdongfang, walking south along Chongwenmen Street, passing through a few street corners, and turning west. Chen Mo came for the first time, and according to the map, he didn't take the wrong path, but unfortunately, he still pounced.
"It's unfortunate that this little brother came, today's Lantern Festival, the old man accompanied Mrs. and Miss to see the lights......"
"When did you leave?" Imagining the iron-faced Shen Li's face and accompanying his family to visit the lamp market, Chen Mo couldn't help but be funny, and wondered if Shen Li actually had a daughter, I don't know if his father is upright, and what his daughter should look like.
"I have a meal after leaving, Miss has been clamoring to go, the old man is busy, he has not been able to take care of it, seeing that there are still a few days in the light market, I can't stand Miss pondering hard bubbles, this time, I guess I will come back early...... I haven't asked the little brother for his name, and when the old man comes back, the little one is good. ”
The doorman was a broken mouth, Chen Mo was slightly surprised, and said: "In this way, it is estimated that he will not be able to come back......" As he spoke, he took out a silver ticket with an amount of one thousand taels and handed it over, and the doorman swept it away by the fiery red lantern on the gatehouse, and suddenly changed color, and pushed it away: "Look at your little brother, you can't imagine that you will learn from this crooked way, don't you have inquired about our master's personality before you came?" Hurry up and take it away, the province will stain our eyes! ”
Looking at the doorman's suddenly serious expression, Chen Mo suddenly smiled, forced the silver ticket into the other party's hand, and said with a smile: "You, you listen to what we say, you know that Mr. has clean sleeves and is honest and honest, but we are Mr. Shen's disciples, and it is not too much for students to respect their teachers, right?" ”
"Disciple?" The doorman was stunned, looked Chen Mo up and down again, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked: "Could it be that you are Chen Mo, Chen Gonggong can't do it?" ”
"What do you say, it's like a fake!" Chen Mo smiled and said, "It's okay now, right?" It's not a secret, our family is going to leave Beijing tomorrow, I wanted to come to see Mr., but I didn't think it was so unlucky, I could only offer some things to show my heart. When you go back and tell your husband, you will say that our family said that this silver is not for anything else, just because spring is coming, let him and Miss Shi's wife add a spring coat, do you know? ”
"This ......"
Seeing that the doorman was still hesitating, while admiring Shen Li's family style, Chen Mo said: "Don't worry, if Mr. is to blame, our family will speak for you." Okay, we have other things to do, so we won't stay long, farewell! After saying that, he stopped talking nonsense with the doorman, and went straight to the horse.
This time, Chen Mo's destination was the prison of the Criminal Department, which had to pass through the east and west squares, and go all the way north along Xuanwumen Street, the whole journey was almost more than 20 miles, but fortunately, there were few people in the dark, and it didn't take much time for him.
Don't say it, this time he didn't pounce in the air, Huo Dong was really in the prison of the Criminal Department, as soon as he heard that Chen Mo was looking for him, the wind rushed out, he saw the approach, he didn't know what he tripped over, and he fell a, but he couldn't even care about the pain, got up, knelt down in front of Chen Mo, and grinned and said goodbye: "It's so dark, what's the matter if the master sends someone to greet the little one, it's worth running in person?" ”
"Doesn't sending someone here show that our family is insincere?" Chen Mo smiled, and hugged Huo Dong up: "Don't make such a big gift, this time Zhang Whale deliberately framed him, our family got lucky, thanks to you, it should be our family who gave you a salute." Saying that, he bowed deeply, startled Huo Dong, and couldn't speak: "Old, master, what is this, what is this?" Torment, torment of the villain? Don't, don't ......"
Chen Mo thanked him from the bottom of his heart, and there was another heart to make friends with this person, which was to bow meticulously, and his body was almost at right angles, so he straightened up and reached into his arms to touch the silver ticket: "This is five hundred taels, you hold the ......"
"It's too much, what the villain has done, it should be, but I can't afford to be so grateful to the master!" Huo Dong quickly interrupted Chen Mo and glanced at the silver ticket quickly, but instead of taking it with his hand, he took two steps back and waved his hand again and again.
"It's just a little bit of our family's mind, what's the matter, isn't it too little?" Chen Mo has perfected such a method now, and he said it casually.
As soon as the words fell, Huo Dong really stopped refusing to shirk, and took the silver ticket half-pushed: "The lord really embarrassed the villain by saying this, it stands to reason that the villain is filial piety to the master, and now ...... This, this ......"
"Okay, okay, don't be verbose, take it quickly, there will be no place for you in the future...... By the way, there is something I still have to discuss with you, the last time our family went to Lord Luo's house, I once mentioned to him that I wanted you to go to Jinyiwei on an errand, but this matter is wishful thinking on the part of our family, and I haven't asked your opinion yet......"
"The villain is willing, the villain is willing!" Before Chen Mo finished speaking, he was interrupted by the ecstatic Huo Dong, and he couldn't help laughing, secretly saying that he really didn't have such an old face as Bai She. Huo Dong, although his status is low, he has a wide range of contacts, in the words of later generations, he has high emotional intelligence, and he is only a prisoner in the prison of the Criminal Department.
"It's okay if you are willing, Lord Luo has promised our family about this, you can explain the errand here, and go to Lord Luo as soon as possible...... Let's say it first, it's impossible to climb to the sky in one step, just start with the hundred households of Jinyi Wei, take your time, we believe that with your ability, you will soon be able to gain a firm foothold. ”
"The villain thanks the lord for his cultivation, in the future, the sword mountain and the sea of fire, as long as the lord commands, if the villain frowns, the sky will thunder, and he will not die!"
Huo Dong knelt down and thanked him, this is the proper meaning of the question, Chen Mo did not interrupt, and after he finished speaking, he motioned for him to get up: "Since our family recommended you, we naturally believe in you...... Tomorrow our family will leave Beijing to go to Zhaoling to do the palm print of the mausoleum supervisor, what will happen in Beijing in the future, you have to remember to report to our family to know, do you know? ”
"Zhaoling?" Chen Mo's appointment was not made public, and Huo Dong was a little surprised.
Chen Mo knew that if he wanted to conquer people like Huo Dong, he not only had to move him with affection, but also had to make a profit, so he simply said bluntly: "Yes, if our family's age is too young and the status is too high, it will be too dazzling in the capital, so Long Live Lord has already promised our family the position of Zhaoling palm seal, stay for a few years, and then recall Beijing when you are older." ”
Huo Dong suddenly breathed a sigh of relief without a trace, and wanted to compliment him a few words, but Chen Mo waved his hand to stop him: "Okay, so be it, it's not early, we have to go back early, so I won't say much, you do it with your heart, don't make it difficult for our family." ”
Leaving the prison of the Criminal Department, he finally had another matter, it was estimated that it was not too late, Chen Mo did not go fast, all the way to the reins, through the streets and alleys, I don't know where to go, I suddenly heard the sound of silk strings, and in the familiar melody, a female voice sang melodiously: "...... Blind date, it's unapproachable, or I should, I believe, it's fate......" Thinking of Siqi, I don't feel stupid......
PS: The pain of Beiliang, I'm sorry, forgive me for my myopia......
