The wine and food are all together, this is just a casual banquet, there are no serious rules, Li You saw that he had the lowest status, and took the initiative to serve the wine and said: "The two nobles came from the house, and they are the first to pay tribute to this local one." ”

Wang Tongzhi waved his hand and said: "Little Brother Li's words are too outward, could it be that your Xujiang County is not Suzhou Mansion?" It should be said that all the people here are in the house, how can everyone be separated. ”

Zhao Liangli patted the case and said: "Punish drinking!" ”

This set of almost rhetoric is too obvious... After that, everyone continued to drink and laugh, but after more than half an hour, Wang Tongzhi and Zhao Liangli didn't say anything serious.

Li You was cautious in his heart and kept a lower profile at the banquet. If there is a simple matter, with the surname of Zhao Daguan, he would have already mentioned it, and the more difficult it is to explain it, the more troublesome it is. Although he was very curious about what he could ask for with the ability and status of these two, he would never ask, and he would hide if he could, this kind of being asked was not a proud thing.

As a result, Li You only cared about talking to the girl named Yuncai next to him, and carefully asked about acting and singing, and everyone knew his romance, but they didn't think it was strange. It's not that Li You has nothing to say, he has always saved up the idea of raising so many women who can sing music, and then copied down the popular songs in his previous life and taught them to sing, and usually listened to them at home as an artificial player, which was so happy.

Li Youzheng and Yun Cai were talking lively, and they heard Zhao Liangli say: "The three of us should carry out the drinking order." ”

Wang Tongzhi asked: "What is the order?" ”

Zhao Liangli said with a smile: "Then the word "begging for people" is the order, and the first person asks for people to put the first five-word poem sentence, and then put it in turn in the middle of the sentence and to the end of the sentence and repeat it, and the meaning in the sentence should be connected up and down. The cloud girl clocks the time for the wine commander, and she will not be punished for drinking within ten sounds! ”

Literati, this is really... Asking for someone to play some tricks, these two people will not collude early and come prepared, Li You said secretly, should I refuse gently, master?

Just thinking about it, he heard Wang Tongzhi hurriedly exclaim: "I'll come first!" Listen to me: Ask for anger and depression, and rely on wine to stretch. ”

Li You was speechless, this old man Wang opened his mouth so quickly, wouldn't he first mutter for a while and pretend that he was not prepared in advance?

Zhao Liangli hurriedly picked up: "I am the second, listen to me: when you go to the place of asking for people, you will know that you are a guest." ”

It was Li You's turn, and the cloud girl kindly timed slowly, until she counted to nine. Li You carefully looked at Zhao Liangli and Wang Tongzhi's happy expressions, and said slowly: "I have a sentence: peace of mind has its own place, and there is no one to ask for it." ”

The three of them turned around and came to Wang Tongzhi again, and there was a sentence: "I don't talk together, and I ask for someone when I am in a hurry." ”

After the four sentences, we have to let go of the word "begging" to start a new cycle.

Zhao Liangli quickly picked up and said: "Ask for people's colors, and know that the surname is wide." He deliberately rushed Li You to see if Mr. Li could stop him.

Li You waited for the time to be exhausted and said: "It is difficult to ask for people in the world, and we will try our best to be generous." ”

Wang Tongzhi said anxiously: "Therefore, the virtuous heart, you must ask for people." ”

Zhao Liangli continued: "The business is not the end, and I have no choice but to ask for help." ”

Li You said quickly this time: "It is better to ask for others than yourself, and self-respect is not to be light." ”

Wang Tong knew: "I begged for people, but it was important to ask for me." ”

When Li You heard this, he thought, I don't seem to have anything to ask for from you... But I heard Zhao Liangli answer: "Mr. tonight, please be here." ”

It's Li You again, and he quickly remembered a sentence: "You should kill yourself, don't forgive others." ”

After a few laps like this, Zhao Liangli and Wang Tongzhi secretly said that it was not good, and they couldn't let go of Li You when the words they prepared were almost finished. If it goes on like this, if the two who are prepared will be overturned by Li You, it will be spread out to make a big joke.

In the future, he will no longer fight with Mr. Li, Zhao Liangli helplessly gestured to Wang Tongzhi.

Wang Tongzhi, who was also helpless, smiled bitterly and said: "The old man is too strong to drink." He said to Li You: "Let's be honest, I want to visit Master Chen, please accompany my little brother." If he is angry, he will also ask Brother Li to turn around. ”

This is so strange to say, a five-grade Tongzhi is afraid of angering the seven-grade Zhixian, so he must have some luxury. You are afraid of angering Chen Zhixian, don't you know that I dare not offend. Li You pretended to be drunk and said: "In the next small inspection, An has the ability to make peace between the old men." What's more, as a foreign military officer, he should avoid suspicion, and it is not good to set foot in the county government at will. ”

It's a familiar sentence, who did you learn it from... Inspector Li did it, and learned from Chen Zhixian and his old father-in-law, and he really gradually integrated and succeeded in his studies.

Zhao Liangli interjected and said: "Mr. Li is modest, who doesn't know that Mr. Li is a close confidant of Lord Chen, and he obeys his words." ”

Li You said again: "For such a thing, it is more appropriate to find Master Huang, and you have to take into account Master Huang's feelings when you participate." Aren't Mr. Zhao and Mr. Huang classmates? ”

Zhao Liangli smiled bitterly and said: "Master Huang said that this matter involves economic, money and grain affairs, and he is not good, so you have to come forward." ”

Li You thought that the matter that Master Huang had to shirk seemed to be really tricky. Wang Tongzhi is just this old man, but Zhao Daguan has come forward, so he really can't be too offended, and he pretends to ask first. Then he patted his chest and said, "Do your best!" But I don't know what it is. ”

Wang Tongzhi smiled and said: "But I can't say it at the moment, lest Brother Li turn around and go to tell Chen Zhixian, so that he is prepared to increase his troubles, and only ask Brother Li to help talk at that time." The official will give you three cups of atonement for your sins, forgive your sins. ”

After Wang Tongzhi finished drinking, Li You took the opportunity to say again: "How dare you be, and then I will salute Master Wang for three cups." "I made up my mind that I was going to pour wine.

Wang Tongzhi is sixty years old after all, and he is really too strong to drink and retire to rest. Seeing the old man leave, Li You asked Zhao Liangli straightforwardly, "What is the matter?" ”

Zhao Liangli stretched out two fingers and said, "I'm asking for money." The prefect saw that the disaster in Xujiang County was the lightest this year, and he wanted to ask you to pay an extra 30,000 taels of tax silver, he was useful. ”

Li You said angrily: "My Xujiang has become a disadvantage instead of a disaster!" ”

The general situation of the money and grain in the county Li You is still clear, last year's flood owed a lot of taxes, Chen Zhi County has been a little strict since he took office for a few months, seeing that after the autumn harvest will have to levy money and grain, last year's arrears plus this year's, I don't know if the rated amount can be completed, not to mention that this year the county still has a tax of 30,000 taels of silver to repair the water conservancy, which has been started.

All in all, this year, from the people to the county government in Xujiang County, the money is not rich. If you go to the prefect's sentence that there is no practical benefit, the additional levy of 30,000 taels will definitely make the county chickens and dogs jump.

As a local, of course Li You is very disgusted by this, your prefect has the overall situation in mind, but what do you need to use silver to close Xujiang County, why do you want to exploit us, just because we are lighter than other counties?

With Li You's understanding of Chen Zhixian, he will inevitably oppose it, what he hopes is to clean up the government, govern the county, and then have a few bright political performance projects, and then the official voice will go directly to the imperial court (it is good to have a way), and when he is promoted, he will come with a few umbrellas for the people or something. How can you want to see the people's grievances boiling under your rule, like a powder keg, who is responsible for the people's upheaval? Besides, Chen Zhixian may not need to be a prefect.

Wang Tongzhi originally came as a lobbyist for the prefect, no wonder he was afraid of angering Chen Zhixian, with the background of Grandpa Wang's academic diploma, he was really not as old as Chen Zhixian, the fifth and second in the second class on the list, and he was probably dumped by Master Chen. So Wang Tongzhi came to Li You, hoping to help lobby the county.

Li You didn't want to take this matter at all, he didn't have anything to ask Wang Tongzhi for, he couldn't get any big benefits, what was the use of ending up with an empty favor that couldn't be cashed in?

Zhao Liangli was originally a lazy person and never bothered to make a living, but this time he couldn't resist Wang Tongzhi, and now seeing that Li You's face was not angry, he said: "This matter is indeed an unreasonable thing." But Mr. Wang, his old man is usually very popular in the house, but he was forced by the prefect to be this lobbyist, knowing your reputation, a lot of people are old and begging me, I really can't bear to refuse, so I will introduce you to know. In the end, you can do it, don't worry about me, and don't affect your friendship for such a mundane thing. ”

Li Yousan said that he didn't know the taste of meat, and he originally planned to stay on the boat tonight, saying that there would be no sexual incident. But now that this old man Wang has a set of pestering skills, it is better to hide away as soon as possible.

There is also Zhao Daguan's untwisted face, he said so, who knows what he thinks in his heart, if he really refutes his face and makes him angry, it will not be good. Then he said to Zhao Liangli: "The night is dark, and I will say goodbye." ”

Zhao Liangli nodded and said, "Then I won't stay as a guest, don't forget the Tiger Hill Meeting on August 16." He gently seduced Li You in his ear and said: "If this happens, I will give you the cloud girl, my family's female drama accompanies the guests or not is all voluntary, this cloud girl has never spent the night with others." ”

I have to say that Zhao Daguan is really a rare person with a surname, and he is really good to Li You, otherwise if he uses his power to suppress people, Li You will be more flexible and have no room to dodge.
