On the other side, Huan Ling and Xie Zheng were still sitting in the private room, and the two chatted happily with Kong Xiuzhi, Xie Zheng asked: "I heard that the envoy was promoted to the official rank a few years ago, and now he is the right servant of Shangshu Province?" ”

Kong Xiuzhi laughed and said, "There is a gap in the top, which is why Kong someone has taken advantage of this loophole." ”

Huan Lingzheng took a sip of tea and said, "Kong Yuanjun is too modest, even if there is no such gap above, you have been in Shangshu Province for many years, and it is time to be promoted." ”

Kong Xiuzhi shook his head and said: "All the colleagues in Shangshu Province have their own duties, and there has never been a vacancy before, and it is only since the death of Zhou Xuyi that there has been such an internal transfer. ”

When he said this, he lowered his voice slightly, and said: "Since Yang Mingzhi's incident, Pei Shangshu is now careful to guard against anyone, even Gu Xun, and everything must be asked for instructions from him before he can handle it." ”

As soon as Gu Xun was mentioned, Xie Zheng lowered her eyelids, and in the future, she and Gu Qilang must never have any more contacts......

He's now up to the left shot.

Kong Xiuzhi saw that Xie Zheng was depressed, and asked casually, "What's wrong with Xie Qishi?" ”

"Not much," Xie Zheng dealt with him, laughed lightly, and said: "Let Yang Mingzhi be pressed for so long, Pei Shangshu naturally can't be trusted by anyone now." ”

Kong Xiuzhi lifted the teapot, poured seven points for the two of them, and said with a smile: "I don't mention business today, Kong has about two people to come, just to drink tea, by the way, and then play against Xie Qishi, the last game was lost, Kong Mou's heart is still not very willing." ”

He was quite familiar with Huan Ling, and he didn't know Xie Zheng originally, but it was because he had a few heart-to-heart words with her at Gongsun Sui's funeral, and he formed a friendship.

Huan Ling quipped: "Can't you see that an elegant person like Kong Yuanjun will also care about winning or losing?" ”

Kong Xiuzhi hurriedly explained: "Eh, don't misunderstand, Kong is not a competitive person, but he just wants to touch the chess pieces for a while." ”

"Since this is the case, then please set up the chessboard," Xie Zheng stretched out one hand to Kong Xiuzhi, pointed to the coffee table in front of him, and signaled Kong Xiuzhi to set up expectations, Kong Xiuzhi understood, so he got up and went to get the chess box, it seems that he has been prepared.

He put the chess box on the coffee table, and was about to sit down to set up the chessboard, when he heard a slight knock on the door outside, he went to open the door, and saw the little maid standing in the doorway.

"What?"

"Lord Lang, King Wuling is here, with Shen Shilang, right next to him," he spoke very quietly, and he didn't forget to stretch out his hand and point to the private room next door.

Kong Xiuzhi leaned out of the door with half of his body, glanced at the private room next door with the door closed, and only returned to the small house: "I know, the good life is to entertain." ”

"Yes," the little guy bowed his head, and walked away, Kong Xiuzhi also took the door and returned to the coffee table to sit down, at that time, Xie Zheng and Huan Ling had already set up the chessboard, and the chess pieces on both sides had been divided, Huan Ling glanced at him and said with concern: "What's wrong outside?" ”

"There are a few guests next to him, let's not mention it, so as not to defeat Yaxing," Kong Xiuzhi has always hated partisanship, if you ask him who he supports, he must remain neutral, speaking of Xiao Ye, he would not have clearly expressed how disgusted he was, but since Xiao Ye hurt his brother-in-law, every time he mentioned him, he always hated.

Seeing Kong Xiuzhi's expression, Xie Zheng had probably guessed who was coming.

In the private room next door, the three of them also sat opposite each other, Huan Rang sat on one side, while Xiao Ye and Shen Wenhe sat on the opposite side, and Liu Fang and Sun Wei sat behind the two, sitting in a precarious position.

Xiao Ye was quite polite to Huan Rang on the surface, pouring tea for him, and asking this and that on the other hand: "How old is Huan Erlang this year?" ”

Huan Rang replied: "After the New Year, it is already twenty-one." ”

Xiao Ye asked again: "Is there a marriage match?" ”

Huan Rang shook his head with a smile.

Xiao Ye smiled and said: "Twenty-one, it's not a young age, don't you have to be like your brother?" ”

Huan Rang looked at Xiao Ye, as soon as he talked about starting a family, he looked for an opportunity to mention the matter of entering the office, he said: "As the saying goes: starting a business and prospering a family, Zhong Xuan is now doing nothing, relying on the family to support and make a living, how dare he dare to marry a wife and have children." ”

Xiao Ye was worried that Huan Rang couldn't start, and when he heard this, he immediately stole joy that the opportunity came, and he pretended to care about Huan Rang: "Huan Erlang was born in a high family, and he is already so old, but he hasn't entered the office yet?" ”

Huan Rang shook his head, Xiao Ye pretended to be surprised, "Your brother is a first-class marquis, so he didn't take care of it for you?" ”

"Alas," Huan Rang sighed lightly, and didn't dare to mention that Huan Ling did not allow him to enter the office, but Xiao Ye saw him like this, most of them had already guessed a little, he rolled his eyes, and said: "That's it, there is just a lack of a long history in this palace, if Huan Erlang doesn't dislike it, wait for the Shangyuan Festival, and come to the post." ”

Liu Fang was stunned, he gave his own sister in exchange for such a ninth-rate errand as the main book, but this Huan Rang is a long history!

Shen Wenhe stared at him with two eyes, and kept giving him a look, what Xiao Ye was thinking now, Liu Fang may not know, but he was clear.

The prince's good helper, living in Huanling Mansion, this guy happens to be Huanling's younger brother, approaching him is equivalent to approaching Huanling, approaching Huanling, approaching Huanling, is approaching Xie's.

If you can get Huan Rang's help, why are you afraid of being secretly calculated by the Xie family again?

Huan Rang had enough of the bitter tricks, just waiting for Xiao Ye's words to come out, he laughed out loud with excitement when he heard this, and knelt down to kowtow to Xiao Ye in a hurry, and said: "Huan is not talented, I am fortunate to be appreciated by His Royal Highness King Wuling, and I will not give up, and I will definitely work for dogs and horses in the future!" ”

"Hurry up, hurry up," Xiao Ye helped Xiao Ye up, and said with a smile: "This king has always been thirsty for talent, and Huan Erlang just solved this king's urgent need." ”

He didn't know if this Huan Rang had the ability, but if he wanted to win him over, it was inevitable to give him some benefits.

If this Huan Rang is a fool, ha, then it would be better to use him to deal with Huan Ling and Xie Zheng!

Xie Zheng and Kong Xiu played a good game of chess, and the fight was tied, regardless of the winner or loser, Huan Ling sat on the side and watched the game, and said cool words: "It seems that Deyin is an opponent in chess today." ”

Kong Xiuzhi laughed loudly: "Where, where, it was Xie Qishi who let Kong make a few moves, and Kong barely tied with Xie Qishi." ”

"The envoy is humble again," Xie Zheng's face was full of kindness, and she picked up the white pieces and threw them into the chess jar next to her.

Outside the teahouse, Yin Luo drove a carriage to stop outside, Xiao Zhencong jumped down from the car, and before he could enter the door, the little guy came out to salute, Xiao Xun only asked: "Xie Qishi can be here?" ”

"Yes, Xie Qishi and Yongxiu County Marquis are drinking tea in the private room upstairs."

Xiao Zhen nodded, and said, "There is little brother Lao to lead the way." ”

The little servant pointed to the teahouse with one hand and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the Prince, please come here." ”
