Chapter Seventy-Six: Go and Beat Him
On the third day of the first month of March, the ancients liked to go to the river to bathe and go out in the suburbs.
Huaguo is surrounded by Yunshan, Chushan, and Yunmengze, and the temperature is slightly lower than elsewhere. Despite the plumbing of the spring river, it takes a lot of courage to jump in and take a bath.
Just in the late spring of March, the grass grows and the warbler flies, and the flowers are in full bloom, so the third of March is set as the Flower God Festival.
The highlight of the celebration in Baisha City is the selection of Oiran, which has been popular for hundreds of years, so the folk also call the Flower God Festival the Oiran Festival.
Bai Ling'er has been an Oiran for two consecutive years, and this year she has encountered big trouble.
The selection rules are very transparent, compared to appearance, singing and dancing skills, and talent. She didn't have to say the first two things, but it is estimated that there will be very few tips for the guest officer.
In the past, with the support of the Apocalypse King, wealthy businessmen have come to Wanhualou. This year, when I saw that the situation was not right, I switched to the Piaoxiangyuan of the Hou Party.
To add insult to injury, he couldn't invite talented people to help out, and he sang poems and harmony.
Talented people are not more profit-seeking than businessmen, and they are somewhat arrogant and arrogant. It's a pity that no matter how hard the neck is, it can't be as hard as a steel knife. After being intimidated by Zhou Ping, where did he dare to take his head. A few crooked melons and cracked dates that recommended themselves to burn the cold stove couldn't get into the eyes of the beauty.
There was no way, she had to ask for help from the "Dong Shu" who came out of nowhere with a "Hundred Character Essay" at the Taoli Banquet, and became an immortal under the propaganda of the Wang Party. was afraid that the other party would not come, so he specially invited Feng Cheng to be a lobbyist.
Just after lunchtime, the little fat man hurriedly stepped into the small building and presented Bai Ling'er's invitation.
Xintianyou glanced at it and said with a smile:
"I see, it's not that she can't hire anyone, but she's targeting me as a free coolie."
Feng Cheng stared at his face and asked:
"Brother Tian, aren't you going to use the identity of 'Dong Shu'?"
Xin Tianyou touched his chin and said:
"After the transformation, I always need to remind myself not to accidentally change back again, it's too hard. The art of war is cloudy, the weak is strange, and the strong is positive. When I first arrived in Baisha City, I didn't know the situation, and I couldn't win against others, so of course I had to use 'Dong Shu' to cover up. Now if you are not afraid, you will face it head-on. ”
The little fat man looked around and said:
"Then what about your master, is the senior brother here? Tomorrow's gambling and duel, Zhou Wuyang seems to be ruthless. ”
"Ha, as soon as my master appears, the world will change. As for the senior brothers, they are also far away. However, 640,000 taels of gold were decided. Zhou Wuyang is very cheap, the softer you are, the more he bullies you. You get hard, but he gets scared...... Xiaoxiang, tell Huawen not to make trouble, let's go enjoy the flowers. ”
"Brother Tian, help Wanhualou today, you better turn back to Dong Shu, save others from asking."
"Okay."
After a while, Hua Wen was dragged over by Xiao Xiang and muttered.
A little maid dares to be rude to her uncle?
The little fat man opened his eyes and felt that the people around Xintianyou were bolder than the other. Fortunately, the one with the greatest courage went to Xiaoshui to practice, Amitabha.
Hua Wen was unceremonious and said:
"Hey, if you want to enjoy the flowers, you can go by yourself, I still have a formation map to design."
Xintianyou got up, patted him on the shoulder, and said:
"Brother Wen, it's not okay to do it behind closed doors. The mind is stuffed with old things, and there is no new goods coming in, where can I design a good formation diagram? When China settles down, we have to go out and have a look. Only by observing the heavens and the earth, feeling sentient beings, and seeing oneself can we be enlightened...... Let's go, let's go, I'll talk to you about space warp ...... when I come back."
Huawen was reluctant and was pushed away by the other party. The old lady stood far away under a peach tree, looking at it with satisfaction, not to disturb the young men.
A group of people went out of the Hou Mansion and saw two limping people cowering and coming up, it was Han Feng and Zhao Bantou who were patrolling the street. They have been waiting for a long time, but their status is low, and they dare not enter the Hou Mansion.
Xintianyou stopped and asked in surprise:
"What's wrong?"
After the two saluted Xiaoyaobo, Han Feng bowed his head and said:
"A certain person was ineffective, he was beaten by Wu Dianshi's board, and Brother Zhao was dismissed. Wangcheng's life was too expensive, and he wanted to go back to his hometown in the countryside. At the beginning, I accepted one or two gold from my son, but I was really ashamed, so I came to return it. “
Xintianyou pushed back the small gold ingot handed over by Zhao Bantou, frowned and said:
"This is your medical bill, just take it. The concussion left no sequelae, which is good...... Han Feng, didn't you scare away the thieves two days ago and made a great contribution, and Wang Duanshangshu of the Zhou State also wrote to the imperial court, hoping to praise him, why did he not do things well? “
Han Feng smiled bitterly:
"The boss wants to fix you, and it's easy to find faults. It was precisely because of his meritorious service that Wu Dianshi thought that I was going to move his position. If it weren't for the intercession of the brethren, I would have been demoted to a deputy position this time. Driving away Brother Zhao is just killing chickens to show monkeys. “
Xintianyou let out an "oh" and said:
"Yes, Zhao Bantou don't go back to his hometown, he will be promoted to the ...... in a few days"
As soon as he heard this, Zhao Ban was very dizzy, thinking that his ears were out of order, and he didn't dare to speak. Han Feng was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart, he has been promoted, why should I go?
Xintianyou sighed for a few breaths and said:
"Han Feng, you...... Let's start with a canonical history. “
"Thank you for your grace."
When Han Feng heard this, he bowed his head ecstatically, unconditionally believing that the "master" was unreliable.
He is majestic in front of the common people, but he belongs to the officials who do things, and he is a dog in front of the officials. Although the canonical history is not in the stream, he is an official, and the position of Wang Cheng is one level higher than that of the locality.
He has worked hard for half his life, and he has long lost hope, but he didn't expect blessings to fall from heaven. But I didn't know that if it weren't for his lack of culture, Xintianyou would almost make him the Yin of Baisha Mansion.
Zhao Bantou saw that the boss worshipped, and bent down and gave his hand in ignorance.
"Thank you for your grace."
Xintianyou asked:
"Where is Wu Dianshi?"
After Han Feng was planted with a divine soul brand, it was equivalent to a tentacle that extended to the grassroots level. I was beaten for no reason, what can I do if I don't get it back?
"Yu Gongzi, he is running errands for Ping'an Hou in the Flower Temple."
"Great, I'm going there too. You two go along and beat him up. “
Yes!
The two of them followed honestly, and the second monk was confused.
The little fat man Feng Cheng looked stupid, and asked worriedly as he walked.
"Brother, you won't shuffle the cards so soon, will you?"
Xintianyou smiled and said:
"I don't want to waste my energy on some trivial things, so since I have decided to do it, I will do it all at once."
"But, brother...... Zhou Wuyang represents a person, and you have room for maneuver no matter what you do. meddling in the official mansion, but it was a taboo to move the Xiaoshui Sword Sect's plate meal. Huaguo is their dojo, and they will not allow anyone other than themselves to be above the secular court. ”
"Feng Chengcheng, it is advisable to take a long-term view and think more about the deep-seated reasons. The divine power is above the monarchy, and it is hoped to recruit disciples, collect offerings, and have people to do the work. Control of the imperial court is a means, not an end. If I had destroyed the Hou Party and still recognized the status of the Xiaoshui Sword Sect, the contradictions would not have intensified to the point of life and death.
"Of course, who doesn't want to call a henchman? Therefore, I have to show my muscles and make Brother Xiaoshui retreat. Being bullied by Zhengyangmen, they can shout injustice to the Daomen. But when you encounter a challenge from a little-known wild cultivator, do you also ask for help? If the war is uncertain and the interests will not be damaged, the ...... of silence will eventually be adopted."
The little fat man blinked his eyes and tried to chew on the meaning.
How could Han Feng and Zhao Bantou ever hear such bold words? I didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, trembling.
Xiaoxiang Xiaolan is used to it, she seems to listen but not listen, and she doesn't seem to understand.
Only Hua Wen didn't listen at all, and from time to time he ran to the flower stall to take a deep breath, showing an intoxicated expression.
