Chapter 129: Tension from the Stars
Cheng Zhifu's face was really a little unbearable, he snorted lightly, and climbed into the sedan chair.
When Lord Qi and Lord Gu saw that Prefect Cheng got into the sedan chair, they also followed the sedan chair.
The three sedan chairs went straight to the direction of the Yingtianfu Ya, leaving only some officials to catch all the splashes who broke their legs......
Lord Cheng's prefect is a fourth-rank official, while Lord Qi's Nanjing Rite Langzhong and Lord Gu's Nanjing Hubu Langzhong are both fifth-rank officials.
Therefore, in terms of rank, Lord Cheng's official position is the highest among the three.
However, if it is the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Langzhong in Beijing, then it is called Jingguan. Even the five-grade Beijing Hubu Langzhong, a local official prefect, has to call himself a subordinate official.
Qi and Gu are not officials of the main hall in Beijing, but officials of leisure and pension institutions in Nanjing.
Therefore, among these three people, regardless of rank and real power, they are all headed by Governor Cheng.
The three adults came to Ying Tianfu's office, and soon entered Lord Cheng's study.
Lord Cheng sat in the main seat, while Lord Qi and Lord Gu sat in the guest seat.
Obviously, the faces of the three were not good-looking, and the scene was quite dull.
After a long time, Governor Cheng first broke the silence: "Two adults, what do you think about today's events?" β
Master Qi pondered for a moment, and said with some embarrassment: "Alas, it's all to blame for the lack of thoughtfulness of the officials. thinks that Xu Xiucai is also a well-known figure among the local gentry, and his father is still ...... Alas, don't mention it. I didn't expect such a big fork to happen, and that tension actually had a golden needle given by the emperor! β
Master Qi shook his head as he spoke.
Master Gu also chimed in: "Originally, we thought that Zhang Li was just a Shandong lifter, who knew that there was a matter of imperial gifts, but now it is really Meng Lang!" β
Master Cheng pondered for a long time and said, "Lord Qi, have you read the golden needle given by the emperor carefully?" β
Lord Qi was stunned, what did Cheng Zhifu mean, but he suspected that Zhang Li dared to pretend?
Then why didn't he point it out at the time?
This imagination. This scheming is worthy of being an old fritter in officialdom, no wonder it has been nicknamed 'Cheng Bu Fall'......
Lord Qi gathered his mind and nodded, "Such an important thing. How could the lower officials not take a closer look? It is indeed a royal gift! β
Master Cheng nodded, his eyes narrowed.
After a while, Master Cheng spoke: "I don't dare to fake this matter even if I feel that tension!" But how could he have such a thing? β
Lord Qi echoed: "Yes. The lower officials also wondered! β
Master Cheng thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll invite him to my mansion for a banquet tomorrow, and then we'll spy on one or two sides." You all come together, and in this kind of thing, there are always people who sing white faces, and some people who sing black faces......
Lord Qi and Master Gu nodded again and again, and the three of them discussed secretly for a long time before they dispersed.
Here, Lord Cheng and the others are 'secretly discussing', and there is a banquet in the medical hall!
Zhang Zhang had already asked Chu Erniang to arrange a few tables of wine and food. Today we have to celebrate with a feast!
Everyone was very excited, and everyone recalled the 'role' they played today, and as soon as the conversation box was opened, they couldn't hold it back at all.
The banquet in the shop lasted from noon to dusk, and it was over.
When everyone was about to leave, the boy from Angelica, who was on duty in the faΓ§ade room, hurriedly ran to Zhang Zhang and handed over an invitation.
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on Zhang Li, and I saw Zhang Zhang open the invitation card and look at it at a glance.
After reading it, Zhang Zhang threw the invitation card on the table. Everyone immediately came over.
Liu Ru exclaimed: 'Ah! Lord Cheng invites you to a banquet tomorrow? β
Gao Yuanliang's brows furrowed: "Young master, there is no good feast, I'm afraid it's a Hongmen banquet!" β
Zhang Zhang shook his head and said proudly: "They don't dare to touch me!" β
Anzi was surprised: "Young master. We just offended them today, and they're going to invite you to a feast tomorrow? β
Zhang Zhang glanced at Anzi, boy, officialdom, you are still too tender!
In the officialdom, yesterday it was like killing his father and enemy. And tomorrow I will hug each other and shout about good friends, Young Master Ben has seen too much!
Without him, it's just the word profit!
I'm afraid that the 'Imperial Golden Needle' I showed today is too lethal, and these turtle grandsons can't sit still, so they want to listen to the truth......
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhang smiled and said to everyone: "It's okay, it's not the first time that the young master has gone to the meeting for a single knife?" Do you think that Governor Cheng would dare to let me, a person with a golden needle from the Imperial Gift, die in his mansion? β
When everyone heard Zhang Li's words, they couldn't help but nod.
Zhang Zhang said to Gao Yuanliang: "You go with me tomorrow, you just wait for me outside." Naturally, they didn't dare to make any moves at the banquet, but they had to guard against the way back and forth! β
Gao Yuanliang nodded again and again, and answered: "Yes! Master! β
Zhang Zhang was a little tired today, and explained a few words to everyone, saying that today's preferential activity is half the price of the consultation fee, and then took Yuan Liang and Liu Ru back to the house in Ganlu Lane.
Back home, it was already dark.
After Zhang Li practiced "Tianyantong" in the room for an hour, he was full of energy and couldn't sleep.
Zhang Zhang looked up at the window, only to see a bright moon hanging high in the night sky, and couldn't help but move in his heart, so he walked out of the house and came to the courtyard.
Whenever in the dead of night, Zhang Li likes to come to the courtyard alone to admire the moon, there is no Anzi, no Gao Yuanliang, no Liu Rushi, only him.
He needs a quiet environment where he can calm down and sort out what has happened recently, so that his mind can be cleared at all times.
The sage Zeng Zi said: 'I am three times a day and I am self--seeking for others and not being loyal?' Making friends and not believing them? Are you used to it? β
Zhang Zhang asked himself that he could not reach Zengzi's moral level, but if it was in the late Ming Dynasty, an era of chaos and deceit, Zengzi would probably be deflated - it was useless for the Confucian ancestor Confucius to come!
Therefore, Zhang Zhang has to think about how he will act next from time to time, so that he can live his true self in this troubled world!
Zhang Zhang secretly pondered, it is cool to slap the face with the golden needle today, but you must know that happiness is very sad, and everything must be planned and then moved.
Today's events are just the beginning, and I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles we will encounter in the future......
The prefect will invite himself to a banquet tomorrow, and when the time comes, what can be said and what cannot be said must be carefully considered......
Suddenly, Zhang Li felt that there was something more on his body!
Zhang Zhang turned his head, but found that before the girl looked concerned, she gently put on a cloak for herself.
'Why haven't you slept so late?' What's on your mind? Liu Ru looked at herself with a smile on her face.
Zhang Zhang smiled slightly, and a trace of warmth rose in his heart, such a girl is really considerate!
Liu Rushi also looked up at the moon, pointed to the stars next to the moon and smiled at Zhang Li: "I can't see through you more and more, and I feel that you don't belong to the people of this world." β
Zhang Zhang smiled slightly and said, "If I say that I am from the stars, do you believe me?" β
Liu Ru sighed, thought for a moment, and then smiled: "You from the stars? Little lady, I don't believe a word! β
Zhang Zhang gently pulled up Liu Ruye's soft little hand, and said, "You've worked hard these days, and they have made great progress in Shiso!" β
Liu Ru lowered his head and whispered, "No, no...... I'm glad to do something for you......
Zhang Li couldn't help but want to step forward and kiss the cherry bite of the girl, and then correct the girl on the spot!
However, the tension finally endured vigorously.
Before the girl has not redeemed herself and given her a name, this young master will never do that frivolous thing!
As soon as he thought of this, his restless heart calmed down again.
Zhang Zhang said softly: "I come from a distant place, and the people there are completely different from here. β
Liu Ru's eyes widened, and he asked curiously, "I heard Anzi say, isn't your hometown Jinzhouwei in southern Liaoning?" β
Zhang Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, I'm from Jinzhouwei. But Yasuko didn't know that I had followed Master to a distant country when I was very young. Yasuko was too young at that time, he didn't remember......
Liu continued to ask, "Tell me about it." What kind of kingdom is that? Where have you been? Wa Kingdom? North Korea? Or the Rakshasa Kingdom? β
Zhang Li laughed and said, "Sister, you know too much...... How do you know that Liaodong is the closest to those three places? β
Liu Ru giggled and said, "Little lady, I read poetry and books, strange travel notes or something, but I love to read it the most!" β
Zhang Zhang was happy in his heart, and quipped: "Young master, the place I went to is the daughter country!" β
'Phew! Liu Ru looked annoyed and reprimanded: "You have no serious virtue, and you still want to go to your daughter's country?" You're beautiful! β
Zhang Zhang made a grimace at Liu Ru and pulled the girl into his arms.
Liu Ru was fascinated, and her eyes closed slightly.
Zhang Zhang didn't want to spoil the atmosphere, and the two fell silent.
A burst of tension in my heartββ
Drunk and lying on the knees of beauties, wake up and take charge of the world!
I don't know when I will be able to do it myself.
Maybe when that day comes, I'll be dying, right?
Or is the girl already gray-haired?
Liu Ru was intoxicated with tension in his arms, and suddenly heard the sound of tension and frustration coming into his ears!
ββ¦β¦ Thinking about Gongjin back then, Xiao Qiao got married for the first time, and he was heroic.
Lupine scarf, talking and laughing, the canopy is gone......
Liu Ru opened his eyes, and his heart felt warm.
He...... When he recited Su Shi's poem, did he compare me to Xiao Qiao?
He compares himself to Zhou Gongjin?
What a beautiful Zhou Lang!
However, what about Miss Ruochen from the National Mansion?
Alas! Miss Ruochenββ
Liu Ru looked depressed and closed her eyes again.
Let's lie in his arms first and not think about it...... (To be continued.) )
