Chen Yuan was also very helpless, and when he came together the next morning, the first thing he did was to clean up the smashed wine shop with Han Qi.

During this time, his wine shop made some money, but these wine jars were all owned by other people's workshops, and they had to be compensated according to the price if they were broken. and the seven or eight jars of wine stored in the store, all of which were smashed, which made all his efforts go to waste.

As soon as the wine shop was cleaned, a carriage stopped in front of Chen Yuan's door, and the driver jumped down from the wheel and asked Chen Yuan: "Are you Chen Shimei?" ”

Chen Yuan stood up and nodded: "The villain is." ”

The man looked Chen Yuan up and down, and twisted his head back: "Get in the car with me, someone wants to see you." ”

Outside the city, the skin exposed to the sun in summer is yin and painful, and at this time, sitting under the low-hanging willows by the river is a kind of fun and a kind of enjoyment.

Occasionally, a few breezes blow across the water, which will make you feel a burst of coolness.

Chen Yuan followed the carriage to the edge of a fast pond, but the coachman did not go down, pointing to an old man who was fishing: "Go, our master is waiting for you there." ”

From behind, Chen Yuan couldn't tell who this old man was, and he didn't recognize it until he walked in: "Lu Xiangguo? I don't know if it was summoned by Lord Xiangguo, and the villain was offended. ”

Lu Yijian turned around, made a small gesture, and patted an empty bench beside him: "Come, sit down and talk quietly, don't scare away my fish." ”

Chen Yuan smiled slightly, walked over and did it next to him.

The fish float on the surface of the water was motionless, apparently not yet hooked. Lu Yijian seemed to be really afraid of scaring away the fish, and asked in a very low voice, "Has Chai Yang come to you recently?" ”

Chen Yuan, who asked this, was stunned and didn't know how to answer. He didn't pay much attention to these officialdoms and battles in the rivers and lakes some time ago, and he didn't know where this Lu Xiangguo was, whether he was helping Chai Yang or Pang Taishi?

After not speaking for a while, Lu Yijian smiled: "I think that Chai Yang is a trustworthy person, so he will definitely not bother you again." ”

Chen Yuan said: "Xiangguo Mingjian, he really hasn't come again." I won't even be allowed to deliver alcohol. ”

Lu Yijian looked at the water, stared at the float, and said something that made Chen Yuan very angry: "Master Pang said that he must carry the little girl in the inn home." ”

Chen Yuan's heart suddenly came up, and he said viciously: "This old man is really hateful! ”

Lu Yijian nodded: "Well, he's a little too much." Today, Ouyang Xiu, that guy may come to you. ”

Chen Yuan didn't know what Lu Yijian's intentions were in telling him this, so he asked along the topic: "What did he come to me for?" ”

Lu Yijian grabbed a handful of fish food from the side and sprinkled it in the water in front of him: "Two things, the first thing is that they heard yesterday that Bao Zheng caught Pang Taishi's official family, and a group of people wanted to go with Bao Zheng to sue Pang Taishi, who knew that Bao Zheng only sued Pang Ji in the end for a crime of lax imperial laxity." These scholars are a little unwilling, Pang An has already been Bao Zhengquan, and if he wants to turn this matter over, he will naturally ask you to testify. ”

Chen Yuan shook his head slightly: "What can I do if I testify?" How can a crime of robbing a people's girl hurt the prince of the court? ”

Lu Yijian turned his head to look at Chen Yuan for the first time at this time, and his eyes were quite appreciative: "Yes, it's very good that you can see this clearly." Bao Zheng knew this reason, so he didn't touch Master Pang. He put Pang Anquan away, just to let Pang Taishi stop. It's a pity that Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu have read too many books. ”

Chen Yuan thought for a moment, and then asked, "Dare to ask Xiangguo, what is the second thing they are looking for me?" ”

Lu Yijian looked at Chen Yuan with a lot of amusement: "In addition to testifying, it is very likely that you will have to persuade Linghua to agree to marry Taishi Pang." ”

Chen Yuan's face was no longer angry at this time, and he said under Lu Yijian's gaze: "They, is there something they want to start from the Taishi Mansion?" ”

Lu Yijian smiled again, and looked at Chen Yuan's eyes even differently: "That Hu Jing was originally the person invited by Han Qi's old man. They received the news that Pang Taishi had privately detained Fanbang's tribute treasures, and Hu Jing was sent by Han Qi to check the evidence. It's just that halfway through the matter, it's revealed. ”

Chen Yuan asked, "Because I exposed her?" ”

Lu Yijian shook his head: "If you don't expose her that day, she will be killed by Na Yelu Nerugu." ”

"Jerünerugu?"

"It's the ninth prince, he is the only son of Yelu Chongguang, the ninth in the clan, he is insidious and cunning, this time he came to contact Master Pang, but he pretended to be a coachman, not only that Hu Jing, even Ouyang Xiu and others were deceived by him, if he hadn't gone to Kaifeng Mansion and was seen by Bao Zheng, his identity might not have been known until now." Lu Yijian spoke in detail, as if he was discussing countermeasures with a minister of the DPRK and China.

Chen Yuan didn't pretend to be confused this time, and said after thinking for a while: "I think Master Bao is not sure to bring down Master Pang, and he doesn't want to easily intensify the dispute between the two countries, so he pretended not to know." But he and Chai Yang seem to know each other. ”

Lu Yijian nodded: "Maybe, I don't know these things on the rivers and lakes very well." I heard that Fan Zhongyan and the others wanted to get a pair of jade horses, but they only took one, and the other was in the Taishi Mansion. Therefore, they want to find someone to infiltrate the Taishi's Mansion and steal the other one out. ”

Lu Yijian told Chen Yuan that Fan Zhongyan and those people wanted to send people to infiltrate the Taishi Mansion, and the best way was to pay attention to Linghua's body now. Master Pang has already released his words, and he must carry Linghua back.

It's not because the rhombic flowers are beautiful, and it's not because the eight characters just match the five elements. It's because now Pang An's matter is known to the whole Bianjing, Bao Zheng and Pang An, although this matter has been settled, but Pang Taishi's face has also fallen. If you can't even lift a woman from an ordinary inn back, then Master Pang feels that he has no face to come out and mix.

Lu Yijian said: "Actually, I think they did all this in vain. Even if you prove that Pang An was instructed by the Taishi, even if that little girl exchanged her chastity for another jade horse, would she be able to bring down the Taishi Pang? ”

Combing a few strands of hair on his forehead, Lu Yijian continued: "When will we be safe as courtiers?" When the emperor likes you, you will be safe, even if you have violated the great royal law, you will still be fine. This is a law that has always existed and cannot be explained. ”

Chen Yuan replied casually: "Is there an unspoken rule of officialdom? ”

"Unspoken rules? Hehe, that's a great word. Pang Ji understands this unspoken rule, Bao Zheng understands it, and I understand it too. It's those scholars who read too many books that worry about the country and the world, but they don't understand it. Lu Yijian was obviously very interested in the term "unspoken rules".

He finally looked at Chen Yuan and asked, "How is it, what else is there that you don't understand?" ”

Chen Yuan finally clenched his fists and asked, "The villain just doesn't understand it yet, why does Lord Xiangguo tell me this?" ”
