The most lively restaurant in the capital is Yuxian Building, which is the most lively at night.

On the third floor, someone in the private room secluded pavilion treated a table of wine and food, and the people who ran the hall sent wine, and the guys here knew most of the dignitaries in Beijing.

The people in this room are no exception.

Sitting at the top is Zhiyong Gongwei Zongyong, and the other few people are not as big as him, so they naturally take him as the head.

This banquet was ordered by the Criminal Department to make Wu Nianze the east, and invited Wei Zongyong and several colleagues in the ministry.

Wei Zongyong is depressed these days, the reason is that he tried his best to buy from the camp a few days ago, wanting to take advantage of the transfer of the six departments to seek a higher official position, but he didn't want to end up in vain.

After a few people sat down, they gossiped while eating wine and food, Wei Zongyong was always sullen, and everyone couldn't enjoy it.

Wu Nianze is the host, so he naturally tried his best to pry it, poured a glass of wine and said to Wei Zongyong: "Grandpa's family style is upright, and he is really worthy of the word wisdom and bravery." There is a big news in our capital today, have you all heard about it? ”

"But the Wei family's little king was rescued from the tiger's mouth?" Someone in the audience chimed in.

"Exactly, do you know that this tiger's mouth is the niece of our grandfather, the fifth lady of the Wei family!"

Everyone hurriedly said that it was rare, and what did they say. It's just to flatter Wei Zongyong.

None of them were present at the time, although they had heard rumors. Out of prejudice between men and women, I also think that this matter is naturally due to Zhong Ye's great credit.

The fifth lady of the Wei family is just a weak female streamer, how much ability can she have?

When Wei Zongyong heard this, he was not very proud.

First, Wei Yining is not his daughter, and secondly, Wei Yining is saving the Wei family that he is not optimistic about, if she saves the children of the Yan family, then it is another matter.

There is no need to be reminded by others, Wei Zongyong has already come to the door in person to set it up.

Wei Zongyong's biggest characteristics are a rich heart and two snobbish eyes, and he was born only looking up.

Although the Wei family is now known as the palace, everyone knows that its momentum is not long, and it is slow to say that the little prince is not a normal child, or he gave birth to a dragon spirit and a tiger, but he is too young to have a position in the court, and he still can't help Wei Zongyong.

Among the people present, there is a newly appointed secretary and envoy, named Zhang Liangjun, this person is the most observant of words and feelings, and has a clever mouth, seeing that Wu Nianze's words did not hit Wei Zongyong's heart, he interjected from the side: "Grandpa, please drink this cup, I see that you have a colorful seal, and I think there will be a great joy in the future." ”

Wei Zongyong snorted when he heard this: "What happy event can there be?" I'm going to be out of luck for a while. ”

Zhang Liangjun said with a smile: "I heard that the Hou family of Jian'an is going to return to Beijing, and the Hou Ye has a very good political reputation in Meizhou, and now he has been recalled by the emperor before his term of office has expired, and he must be entrusted with a heavy responsibility." Hou Ye and you have the righteousness of Uncle Lang, how can there be no reason not to take you? ”

Wei Zongyong listened to his words, pondered in his heart, and felt that what he said was very reasonable.

Shao Tiancai is not low, he is capable, and he has won praise from the imperial court several times.

Now that the official positions in the six ministries have changed, there are still a few old ministers who should be in office, which is obviously unreasonable.

There is no other reason, just waiting for someone to return to Beijing to take over the position.

Thinking of this, Wei Zongyong couldn't help but secretly rejoice, and mustered up interest to drink and have fun.

It wasn't until late at night that I took the family's carriage back home.

Bao Shi had also taken off his clothes and sat on a chair to wash his feet. Seeing that he came back from drinking, he sent Chunying to twist the handle of the hot hand towel and wipe Wei Zongyong's face.

I asked the little guy if he drank the decanting soup in the restaurant?

Wei Zongyong smiled and said: "My sister-in-law's family has returned to Beijing, and we have more help, and when my sister comes back, you have to keep them in the house for a few more days." ”

Bao Shi listened and said: "I'm thinking about it together, don't worry, I don't dare to slack off." ”

Wei Zongyong was full of thoughts about Shao Tianzi to promote himself to become rich, usually he went to the room of the concubine Liu when he was drunk, and today he came to the Bao family's side to tell her about this matter.

Wei Zongyong does not have many wives and concubines, firstly, because the atmosphere of this dynasty is like this, and secondly, it is also because of the strict management of the Bao family.

Now when he was drunk, he saw the girl Chunying who came to serve Chunying with red lips and wonderful eyes, and he had a very touching posture, so he couldn't help but squeeze Chunying's hand, because Bao's back was facing him, so he didn't see it.

Wei Zongyong saw that although Chunying retracted his hand, he was only ashamed and did not run away, and his heart was even more proud.

The little girl Pan Tao, who was waiting for Bao's feet to wash her feet, took the footbasin out to pour water, and Chunying and Chunrong went to the outside to gather the tea stove, knowing that the old man drank wine and wanted to drink tea at night.

One went to tell the old man on the stove to eat breakfast at the lady's side tomorrow morning, there was no one else in the house, Bao Shi said while untying his hair: "Today the old lady took Mi'er and them to go around, and the five girls saved the little prince of the Wei family, do you know about this?" ”

Wei Zongyong said a little impatiently when he heard this: "It has already spread all over the capital, and I am not deaf, why don't I know." ”

Bao said: "These five girls are so bold, if they are just ordinary swimming to save people, there is still a tiger there!" ”

"Didn't Zhong Manlang kill the tiger in the end?" Wei Zongyong was drunk and confused, and just wanted to sleep.

Bao Shi glanced at him and said helplessly: "The tiger was naturally killed by Zhong Manlang, but the little prince was saved by the five girls." ”

"What's the use of that!" Wei Zongyong burped and said, "The Wei family is now like a painting boat with a rubber bottom - only the outside is good-looking, and it won't last long." ”

As he spoke, he lay back and began to snore.

Bao sat in front of the dresser, looking in the mirror at the dark night outside the window, and his heart couldn't stop falling.

She has long known that Wei Zongyong is a piece of mud that can't support the wall, if it weren't for her mother-in-law and her doing everything possible to help her, how could Wei Zongyong be able to attack the knight?

He can't be literate, and he can't gain fame through scientific research like other people's concubines.

The reason why Bao told him this was just that he felt that Wei Yining seemed to be really not simple.

Assuming that Wei Yining was not a five-year-old child at the beginning, they were afraid that their original strategy would not go so smoothly.

Thankfully, though, they struck first.

Now that Wei Yining has grown up, he has lost the opportunity and can't do anything with them anymore.

"Thanks to my mother-in-law telling us to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, otherwise, I'm afraid it will be another good fight." Bao thought secretly in his heart.

Wei Yining has lived a long life, but her younger brother and elder brother are no longer there, as long as there are no men, they will not pose a threat to them.

A woman, no matter how capable she is, is limited.

Wei Zongyong was snoring, and he had already dreamed of it.

In the dream, he married another aunt, who was young and beautiful, and the face under the pink veil was both familiar and unfamiliar.

Wei Zongyong stepped forward and lifted the veil, and the new aunt smiled shyly and timidly, it was the little girl of the spring warbler.
