Chapter 8 "The House of the Wise Officials"
The matter of the mutiny of the soldiers on the three sides has not reached the ears of the people of Bianjing, this kind of mutiny because the court has no silver salary, it is definitely a scandal of the court, it is too late to cover it, who dares to say it everywhere with a big mouth!
In the evening of June, the heat of the day gradually dissipated, the people of Bianjing who escaped the heat at home took to the streets, and the Mingyue Zhouqiao Night Market also kicked off, and all kinds of dim sum and snack stalls were put up to welcome the people of Bianjing who came to taste. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info\\qΒ5.c0m/
Taihe Building ranks among the top ten famous buildings in Bianjing, located in the downtown area, the golden wall is brilliant, the end is extraordinary, and the top wind and dust beauties in the building are endless, attracting the princes and ministers of Bianjing, and the rich and wealthy people have to go.
In a luxurious wing room in Taihe Building, Zhao Lei listened to the singing and dancing of the courtesan, waiting for Wang Su's arrival, the meeting that had been scheduled yesterday was half an hour late, but he didn't wait for Wang Su's arrival.
Strange, today's business is a little bad in Taihelou! Usually those hundred officials of the imperial court, why didn't they see it today! Senior brother didn't come either, could it be that something happened to the imperial court? Zhao Lei listened to the song and dance absentmindedly, and thought suspiciously.
"Haha! Three unique brothers, what a meeting in life! I haven't seen each other for so many days, but the demeanor of the three peerless brothers is still there! There is fate, there is fate! The door of the wing room was pushed open, and there was no communication, and Liu Yongliu, who had not met for a long time, walked in with a sarcastic smile.
"There is indeed fate, you are three changes, I am three uniques, and this nickname is still from the mouth of the official. There is really no other explanation than fate. Zhao Lei looked at Liu Yong and said with a light smile.
Liu Yong came into the wing room, and he was not polite, he sat opposite Zhao Lei, picked up the wine jug, and picked up the wine glass prepared for Wang Su. Fill a glass and drink it all.
"Good wine! Fifteen-year-old Fenjiu, enough taste! Liu Yongba pursed his lips and commented.
Zhao Lei smiled lightly, but didn't speak, Liu Yong suddenly said: "I heard that the third absolute brother was demoted to the people because of the death of people. ”
"I have never admitted to killing people, and I never thought that I would kill people." Zhao Lei's voice was indifferent, but the strong confidence in his tone was the arrogant Liu Yong. was also infected and began to believe that Zhao Lei was wronged.
"The imperial court is not a good place, with the talents of the three peerless brothers, but when I entered the moon, I was kicked out by the villain who was jealous of the virtuous and energetic. Does the three peerless brothers think that officialdom is really a place to stay for a long time? Liu Yong suddenly changed his sarcastic and arrogant demeanor, and persuaded Zhao Lei bitterly.
When Zhao Lei heard Liu Yong's words, he immediately understood Liu Yong's intention.
After Zhao Lei was demoted to the people, Zhao Fu received many invitations from restaurant owners, hoping that Zhao Lei could go to these restaurants to sit often. Tell me about the singing and dancing in the restaurant.
Although Zhao Lei doesn't quite understand the meaning of these restaurants, he is from a dusty place, Bai Xinlan, but he understands these restaurants. I want to recruit Zhao Lei to write some poems for them, after all, Zhao Lei's literature, medicine, and craftsman are unique in Bianjing, and he has been praised by the official family, and he can invite Zhao Lei to the restaurant, just like Liu Yong's Quanhelou, just because of the existence of a star, the business will overwhelm other restaurants, and it will vaguely become one of the Bianjing Qinglou.
Although the price of the restaurant is very high, it is high enough to buy the entire Zhao family folding fan shop. But Zhao Lei didn't have the slightest idea of writing poems and lyrics for the beauties of the restaurant, and they shirked it one after another.
And today's purpose of Liu Yonglai is nothing more than to persuade Zhao Lei to leave the officialdom and be a chic and free lyricist.
Like you, you have no wife and no children, and you have no money to bury you when you die, so let the prostitutes in Bianjing pool the money to bury you! Does anyone feel that Liu Yong, who has been displaced and miserable all his life, is very happy! Although I like your words, I don't agree with your outlook on life and values, and you are a real failure. Zhao Lei looked at Liu Yong, shook his head, and thought with some pity.
"Did you come to Bianjing to show your talent just to enter the officialdom?" Liu Yong saw Zhao Lei shaking his head, knowing that the two were strangers, and their goals were even more different, and there was no chance of overlapping, so he directly gave up the plan to persuade him, and asked curiously as if his friend was chatting.
Facing Liu Yong's usual inquiry, Zhao Lei nodded and said, "Not bad!" Promoting official wealth, shining on the lintel, getting ahead, and showing ambitions, this is the purpose of my coming to Bianjing. ”
"The literary and martial arts you learned are sold to the emperor's family! Once upon a time, I also thought about it, but the reality is very disappointing! Liu Yong remembered what happened to him and said with emotion.
"At that time, the official family was young and vigorous, so the treatment of the three change brothers was too heavy, if the three change brothers are willing to admit their mistakes like the official family, it can be guaranteed that the official family will definitely reuse the three change brothers, after all, the official family still appreciates the words of the three change brothers." Zhao Lei began to make peace, mediating the grievances between the current master of the word world and the current emperor Zhao Zhen.
After listening to Zhao Lei's words, Liu Sanbian shook his head and smiled, pondered for a moment, looked at the candlelight in the wing, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Sanshi! Do you think there is no arrogant Liu Sanchang, or Liu Sanchang? ”
Zhao Lei was dumbfounded, indeed, Liu Sanbian was born arrogant, he was not convinced by anyone, even the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, he also dared to ridicule and contradict, he was the representative and model of the angry youth, and it was indeed more difficult for him and Zhao Zhen to bend over than to kill him.
And the official Zhao Zhen, who was the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, asked him to bend over Liu Yong, which was even more impossible, so the contradiction between Zhao Zhen and Liu Yong could never be reconciled.
"I know that Brother Sanchang is unwilling to bend over the imperial power, so I don't want Brother Sanchang to do what I don't want to do, and Brother Sanchang shouldn't be embarrassed, let me do what I don't want to do." Zhao Lei raised his glass and gestured to Liu Yong.
"Good!" Liu Yong raised the wine glass in his hand and drank the wine in one gulp.
"Since Brother Sanshi believes that the sea is up and down, Brother Sanshi will give Brother Sanshi a big gift!" Liu Yong said with a hearty laugh after drinking.
"What gift?" Zhao Lei asked curiously.
"The owner behind Quan He Lou is the Pu'an Wang Yunrang in the Zhao family's clan!" Liu Yong mysteriously said the mysterious owner behind the Quan and Lou.
"Son of the King of Shang. General Qianniuwei on the right, with great talent, wide outside the village, and wide inside, is not happy, and his status in the clan is only in the king of Meng, and the king of Pu'an is allowed to let him! Zhao Lei's eyes flashed with surprise, and he whispered to Liu Yong for confirmation.
"Not bad! It's him. Today, the three changes were guests of the Pu'an Palace, and learned a secret news from it, last night the envoys of the three sides entered Beijing overnight, and heard that the soldiers of the three sides mutinied, and because of the lack of silver in March, the most important thing is that the household department has no silver to pay all over the country. Liu Yong sneered and whispered, he knew that the current embarrassing situation of the imperial court was because of some moths that filled his pockets. That's why there was a three-sided mutiny.
"With such important news, how could King Pu'an tell Brother Sanbian?" Zhao Lei asked with a puzzled expression.
"Who knows, maybe King Pu'an deliberately told me, and then borrowed my mouth to tell Brother Sanshi!" Liu Yong pretended to be very innocent and said unintentionally.
Maybe unintentionally. But listening to it was very meaningful, hearing Liu Yong's words, Zhao Lei's first thought was that King Pu'an, whose status in the clan was second only to King Meng, was showing favor to himself.
Why is King Pu'an so kind to me? Zhao Lei was full of doubts in his heart. He didn't know King Pu'an at all, and they didn't have anything to do with each other, so why did he suddenly show affection!
"Three-sided mutiny. The household department is short of money! Liu Yong took the chopsticks, sandwiched the side dishes on the banquet, and muttered to himself while eating.
The three sides mutinied, and the household department was short of money! Liu Yong's words, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, suddenly woke up Zhao Lei.
Oh, yes! The three sides mutinied, the household department was short of money, and the imperial court had to find a way to get money. The only way to make money without breaking the muscles and bones is to reform the current system with loopholes, and maybe there will be reforms that affect other aspects, what an opportunity! What a good opportunity to intervene in officialdom, isn't this the opportunity I am waiting for, from a new rise to the officialdom! I didn't expect it to come so soon. Zhao Lei looked at the chopsticks in his hand and thought excitedly.
"How can we let the officials know that they are loyal to the court, and they can show their talents and attract the attention of the officials and the court?" Zhao Lei muttered to himself.
"I don't know how to show my talents and attract the attention of the officials, but how to send the things that show my talents and attract the attention of the officials to the officials, I still have a way?" Liu Yong muttered while eating the vegetables.
"Oh! What can I do about the three change brothers? Zhao Lei asked Liu Yong a little convincingly, it turned out that the somewhat raunchy and sloppy-looking word altar clan in front of him actually had such a good talent in terms of planning, worthy of the world's first talent, really amazing!
"I am very familiar with every girl in this right and building, I heard that there is a person downstairs, who is a fresh face, who came here with Brother Sanshi, what is the miscellaneous servant of the Taiyi Bureau, I heard that the relationship with Zhao Huaigu of the Taiyi Bureau is very unusual!" Liu Yong took a sip of wine and said with a smile.
"Zhao Huaigu! He actually sent someone to follow me? Zhao Lei said very surprised, he never thought that Zhao Huaigu had already framed him and left the Taiyi Bureau, and he was still ghostly, sending someone to follow him, what did he want to do!
Could it be that he is following me, preparing to catch my handle, and then go to the official family to complain, and let me be directly demoted from Bianjing, so that Zhao Huaigu will really feel at ease, it must be so! When Zhao Lei thought of this, his eyes rolled and he thought about it.
"Come on! Brother Sanchang, let's drink! Zhao Lei pulled Liu Yong, pushed the cup to change the lamp, and began to eat and drink.
After thirty years of drinking, Zhao Lei and Liu Yong, both a little drunk, gradually let loose their wreckage, called the famous prostitutes of Quan Helou, and began to spend all day drinking.
"Bring the pen!" Zhao Lei, who was drunk, suddenly ordered the courtesans next to him to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then staggered and splashed ink.
After a long time, Zhao Lei didn't finish writing, suddenly shook and fell to the ground drunk.
The courtesan beside Zhao Lei looked curiously at what Zhao Lei wrote, and saw that on the rice paper, there were six words written on the big thorn "Mingdao Counselor's Family Letter".
As soon as the courtesan saw the name, she knew that it was Zhao Lei who was venting her dissatisfaction with the court and the official family, and covered her sexy little mouth in surprise, not knowing what to do.
