Xu Rong's Ministry of Labor is not a high-ranking official in Beijing, but he is close to the authorities, and more importantly, his father Xu Han, who is the only minister, has never mentioned the candidate for the left minister after Li Zhongchun died in office as the left minister a few years ago, although Xu Han's authority has been repeatedly narrowed under the participation of several princes and princesses, but the prime minister has reached the will of the Son of Heaven and the people, and the civil and military officials are looking forward to their horses, and their identities are transcendent. Xu Rong's status has also risen.

There are many officials in Zangyunfang today, and when they saw Xu Rong, many of them came forward to say hello, and everyone knew that Xu Rong was hot with his bare hands, and he would be afraid that it would be too late to live at the height of the temple in the future. Xu Rong is also polite, and came to see the gift one by one, his seat is not drawn by the number plate sorting, but directly arranged in a conspicuous position on the first floor, and when the Oiran comes out, he can smell it clearly, and you can observe the beauty of the candidate Oiran up close.

"People are more popular than people." Wang Hu sighed a little, "He is only one year older than the student, and he took the exam one year earlier." Look at that virtue, isn't it relying on his father? What kind of ability can he have, and the lice in the Qingshui Yamen of the Ministry of Industry have also been mixed up for a few years. ”

Liu Yuxin said that these gentlemen also like to compare, but in comparison, the criminal department is indeed heavier than the work department, and he just has a opinion, and asked with a smile: "Why don't you go to the stammer?" ”

Wang Hu said disdainfully: "His father is the prime minister, and his father is still a scholar, and he will not come together in the future if he disagrees with the political opinions!" ”

Seeing Xu Rong's arrival, Ji Lu is equal to half the success, since Xu Rong is willing to spend 4,000 taels to redeem Li Sha'er, he doesn't mind spending more than 1,000 taels of silver to taste the sweetness first, Liu Yu, who was about to watch a good show, suddenly found three big acquaintances coming in at the door, and as soon as he came in, he looked around, looked up and saw Liu Yu, and happily ran to this side.

Sui Yi and Li Mi led the little follower Hu Xuan.

"Brother Liu, I thought you would adopt your heart after you got married, and it was a pity that I couldn't invite you to come and see the excitement, but I didn't expect to meet you here." Sui Yi didn't care about any rules, so he directly moved a chair and sat down next to Liu Yu, "This position is good, it's bright, that Wang Dashao, can you move to the side, so that my two brothers can also sit down." ”

If Wang Hu is the kind of official son who is unwilling to show his wealth, Sui Yi belongs to the kind of person who can't finish throwing money with 10,000 taels of gold, which is the advantage of buying money first and then becoming an official, even if he is corrupt in the future, it can be said that he earned it when he was in business, and it is really difficult to check the family property in these years. Liu Yu didn't want to invite him to come because he didn't want him to make trouble, if Li Sha'er's Oiran was competed by Sui Yi for a while, wouldn't the plan to arrest Xu Rong be in vain?

Li Mi and Hu Xuan also moved chairs and sat down, but squeezed Wang Hu aside. Wang Hu was a little unhappy, thinking that such a talented and ambitious gentleman still had someone rushing to set him, but in front of him was the Shaoyin of Jingfu who had just given him fifty boards, and his father and the fourth princess also meant to let him serve in Jingzhao Mansion first, and Sui Yi could not afford to offend.

"Sui Shaoyin, I don't know who these two are?" Wang Hu saw that he was being dried, so he had to take the initiative to say hello.

Li Mi and Hu Xuan each reported their names, and when they learned that Li Mi was the commander of the Yamen of the Yunanmen Defense Division, Wang Hu was still a little surprised, because he had already heard his father say that the most unprovoked thing in Chang'an City was the officials of the Yamen of the various defense divisions, and whoever wanted to be the prince to inherit the unification had to look at the faces of these people. Hu Xuan introduced cloth clothes, and Wang Hu didn't take it too seriously. Two of the three people couldn't afford to be offended, as Wang Hu, who had never been above the top, was a little depressed, and said that this gentleman was not simple, and there were many capable people around him, so he had to sit aside in a sullen voice.

Sui Yi smiled and said: "It is said that Li Sha'er has a talent who wants to sacrifice himself to compete for the Oiran, and that person will not be ...... Brother Liu, are you? ”

"What does Sui Shaoyin mean by this?"

Liu Yu didn't say anything, but Wang Hu on the side asked first. Sui Yi glanced at Wang Hu, but without squeaking, Liu Yu asked, "Who did you listen to?" ”

"Who else do you need to listen to?" Sui Yi said, "Now everyone who has been to Zangyunfang knows that she doesn't do it if the surname Xu gives four thousand taels to Li Sha'er to redeem herself, and this time she actually took the initiative to propose to the bustard's mother to compete for the Oiran, if there is no Li Sha'er and other people who can get the scene, Zangyunfang will suddenly make such a big move to make the whole city know?" ”

Liu Yu said angrily: "I'm asking who you heard about what is related to me." ”

Sui Yi smiled and said: "Actually, I'm also speculating, you think, you shot and won that day, Li Sha'er promised to sweep the couch, and the shy answer went back to sweep, we don't know how to sweep, what did you put that on?" ”

Hu Xuan reminded on the side: "Release the pigeons." ”

"Yes, it's to release the pigeons, and then she also sent you an invitation, but I didn't expect you to take the fourth princess to go, when the fourth princess said that she wanted to let you do her good deeds, Li Shaer's look was clearly willing, but you won the matter and gave up again. If it weren't for your intentions this time, would she be willing to bend down to compete for the Oiran? Originally, I was still a little suspicious, but now that I see Brother Liu, you actually came uninvited, can this suspicion be said to be true? ”

Liu Yu looked calm and did not answer. Sui Yi smiled and said, "Brother Liu, don't worry, since the younger brother is here, how can you be disappointed?" As long as you say it, no matter how much silver it is, we will grab this oiran today! ”

"No need, I don't care who you want to bid for today, but I only have one request, Li Sha'er will appear in a while, and you are not allowed to bid."

Sui Yi was quite surprised: "Why is this? ”

"The reason will be explained later, but today as long as you do what I want."

The preparations for the Oiran campaign of the Zangyun Fang were almost in place, and the guests were almost full of the entire Zangyun Fang. The women who performed the mat dance retreated, and the bustard's mother appeared in anticipation, first with a polite look, and then led the twelve young ladies who were running for the Oiran today's election to the stage, along with the maids. Li Sha'er's figure was hidden in the crowd, and the pale cyan dress was not gorgeous, but looked more like a small jasper. As soon as she appeared, many people looked at her. Being watched by many pairs of eyes, Li Sha'er was a little flustered and kept hanging her head slightly.

A voice came from nowhere: "Old bustard, did you win the bid and send the beauty into the room with the maid?" It's fun to be the one who sleeps together! ”

The audience burst into laughter. The bustard's mother smiled and said: "Spend a good night with a beautiful woman, wouldn't it be possible to sweep Yaxing if there is a third party present?" ”

Xu Rong, who was only three feet away from the stage, stood up, folded his fan and said with a smile: "Auntie, this is not what you said, spending a good night with a beautiful woman should not be preoccupied with beauty, if the maid is also brought into the room to be happy, that is the real happiness of life." ”

Liu Yuxin said that Xu Rong was really not satisfied, and it was not only possible to compete for Li Sha'er's first three nights, but also to add a maid to enjoy the blessings of all people. Li Shaer's maid is only fifteen or sixteen years old and is not beautiful, it can only be said that she has a decent appearance, and she will not be able to look at it with Xu Rong's eyes, but Liu Yu also understands Xu Rong's mentality at this time, Li Sha'er used to be arrogant, if she has to share her luck with a maid from a humble background when she breaks her body, this is also a kind of ridicule in disguise, and it can make Xu Rong have a sense of revenge and get what he wants.

The bustard's mother was embarrassed: "Since even Xu Shilang said so, the slave family had to make an exception once, but those who bid for the beauty will have to pay an additional ten taels of silver for the reward." ”

Those maids didn't expect to be put on the table by the bustard's words, and their expressions were a little flustered. At this moment, there was a sudden noise at the door, and several turtles in Zangyunfang seemed to be arguing with someone, and after a few words, they heard a crackling sound, and then they saw several tall men in Hufu coming in with a strong momentum, looking left and right, with extremely fierce and domineering expressions.

This is also part of Liu Yuji's plan, these Hu people are all pretended to be the sentinels of the Imperial Forest Army, and some of them are also doing secret talks all the year round in the north of the Great Wall, which can be said to be more similar than the real thing.

When the bustard's mother saw someone who was not an official coming in, she hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Masters, this is the place of the official family, please go back quickly and don't provoke the official." ”

"Why should other brothels be let in, and you will be turned away from them? Do you look down on us, afraid that we can't afford to pay? In a thick northern accent, one of the current "Hu people" untied a money bag from his waist and threw it on the ground, spreading the gold in his pocket, "Are these enough?" ”

Xu Rong didn't expect that someone would come to make trouble today, and said sharply: "How can the official office be easy for ordinary people to enter?" If you want to come in, you still have to take the imperial examination, and come back again for fame! ”

"Phew! You doll is so arrogant, Lao Tzu just wants to find a chick to defeat the fire, but I still look at it. The "Hu man" suddenly pointed to Li Sha'er not far away and said, "That girl is a sign of a good birth, come, go into the room with Lao Tzu and have a good time, and you will be satisfied with Lao Tzu's service, and you can have as much gold as you want." ”
