Chen Nianshu was stared at by a bunch of eyes, but he still stopped talking in time and swallowed back the silver under his tongue. He just laughed and shook the fan loudly: "Brother, before I came to Beijing, my father and the elders sent advice, this time we must have a satisfactory messenger, so as not to disappoint the whole family." Therefore this money is more than others. ”

"How much more money than anyone else?" There is a person who has a weird yin and yang: "The poor Beijing official earns hundreds of taels of silver a year, and the amount that Brother Chen spends in a few days is hundreds of taels of silver." Brother Chen has more in his pocket, so he won't go home tomorrow. ”

Chen Nianshu was excited: "Where did you spend a hundred taels of silver in a few days, and you ....... a meal yesterday haha, you and I have no other intentions, and we don't mean to ridicule others for being poor." ”

"Brother Chen has such a father, of course, he is to help Brother Chen wait in Beijing until the envoy arrives." There is also a person who is saying a neutral and flattering word, and Chen Nianshu feels that it is wrong: "I want someone to help? I'll give it away, and I'll ......."

When Tang He heard this, he was worried that Chen Nianshu would say all the following words, so he stepped into the door and said with a smile: "Lord Chen, Tang He is here to worship." ”

Chen Nianshu's words were interrupted, and he was a little unhappy. I only came to Beijing for a few days, and I saw too many people. This guest who came to worship was familiar with him, but he forgot where he had seen it. The guests in the room knew Tang He, and when they saw Chen Nianshu stunned, they just laughed, and Tang He reported to himself: "I am a guest in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Lord Chen went to worship Uncle Guo, you and I passed by under the hibiscus tree, do you remember?" ”

"Oh, oh, Brother Tang Nian." When Chen Nianshu heard the words "Prime Minister's Mansion", he stood up in respect: "Please please," and then ordered someone: "Serve tea." ”

The guests snickered, and when they saw that they had been sitting for a while, there were new guests, and everyone said goodbye together. Chen Nianshu sent them outside the room, asked them to have a drink, and then came in to accompany Tanghe.

The guests outside talked a few words in front of the inn: "This surnamed Tang has come to make a profit, and he is not a powerful guest in the Prime Minister's Mansion, but I am afraid that Lord Chen will not understand and will take him as a confidant." ”

"Just a few more dollars, he has it anyway."

It's been discussed here, and everyone disperses.

The old man in the room was hesitating, and he had not been in Beijing for a few days. A lot of them were sent in a few places, but it didn't work. There is all the silver, but there is no one. He is not sure about Tang He, so he is not sure, is he invited today? It's better to invite him, or to push the appointment or not. Tang He pretended not to see the old man's thoughts, and pulled him to speak:

"Brother Chen went to pay homage to the prime minister, and he was the first one who came to Beijing." Tang He said, Chen Nian raised the folding fan in his hand: "Of course, I have asked others, not as fast as me." ”

Tang He also agreed: "Of course it's right to walk in front, but," just stopped, Chen Nianshu lowered his head to eat tea, and then let Tang He: "Brother Tang Nian eats tea." "Tang and this" but" stuck here, he laughed self-deprecatingly, he didn't want this person, not a straw bag. Chen Nianshu ate half a bowl of tea, and shouted outside the door: "Renew the tea for the master." ”

An attendant came in from outside the door, carrying a pot to refill the two people with hot tea. Chen Nianxiang forgot about Tang He's "but" just now, and smiled ignorantly at Tang He: "This tea is good, and the second one is better." ”

The soup is funny, I use this second tea to send myself back to my stomach. He still put his heart in his heart, and said in an unhurried tone just now: "But this capital spends money, but it's not easy to spend." Lord Chen, what do you see? ”

"Of course it's not a good flower, me," Chen Nianshu smiled slyly, "I count the flowers." Tang He said: "That's right, otherwise when you run out of money, you won't be able to do anything." Chen Nianshu's face changed, and then he laughed again: "Brother Tang Nian's words are said that in Beijing, there is always unjust money. ”

This person gradually ascended, and Tang He struck while the iron was hot: "It's all wrongful to spend money, and there are many people." Chen Nianshu straightened up, and his voice was a little unnatural: "Brother Tang Nian, please speak." ”

Tang He laughed: "I'll talk casually, I've been in Beijing for many years, but it's just to remind the adults from outside, and I look forward to taking care of them when I take up the post of adults in the future." ”

Chen Nianshu lowered his eyes, and when he raised it again, he no longer spoke to Tang He, but spoke to the entourage outside: "I ordered wine and food in the restaurant, and I pushed the appointment at noon, and I sat with Brother Tang Nian." Tang He almost wanted to ask him who he had an appointment with at noon, if he made an appointment with the officials and the waiters of the Ministry of Rites, Tang He didn't believe that Chen Nianshu still said in such an atmosphere: "Pushed him." ”

After the entourage agreed, the floor sounded, and went down to order. If you have wine and food, why be polite. Tang He didn't say anything important, and only told Chen Nian about the customs and customs of Beijing.

When it comes to the wine and food, look at the old description, four plates and four bowls. Xiao Er put down the wine and said, "It's the kind of wine you said you had last time." The muscles on Chen Nianshu's face trembled, I am not inviting an adult today. Glaring at the entourage, and then at Xiao Er. The entourage was extremely innocent, and Xiao Er grinned. Tang He saw it in his eyes, and said to Xiao Er: "You don't need this wine, you can just change it." ”

"Forget it, since we brought it, let's use this." Chen Nianshu felt that he was not worth the mood, and he was comfortable, and he could step down. The two men sat down and pushed their glasses, and closed the door for talking, and opened the window for the heat. The vista of this inn can look at the distant mountains outside the city, and Tang He is looking forward to Nabi Mountain: "It's cool to get up in the morning, and you can visit the mountains." ”

As soon as he turned around and saw Chen Nianshu staring at him, Tang He knew that he was distracted, and calmly added: "The two uncles are people who love to hunt in the mountains. ”

Chen Nianshu was stunned, thinking that Tang He was pointing at himself, so he quickly put away his eyes and thanked him, and said regretfully: "This, it's just that I can't hunt, and I can't swim at the foot of the mountain, and I can't go to the road pointed out by Brother Tang Nian." Tang He said with a straight face: "Even if you will, when you reach the foot of the mountain, you can't get close to Uncle Guo."

"That is, there are many followers of nature." Chen Nianshu said, and looked at Tang He, continue I don't have to go, what's the use of you saying this? Tang He pretended not to see it, and continued to talk about the people who hunted: "The people who love hunting in the capital, His Royal Highness King Liang is sick and can't go, and several princes love to go, as well as Uncle Xiaoguo, among several adults, the son of Young Master Chu also loves to go." However, he became a relative and has rarely come out recently. Speaking of the last two sentences, Tang and Renjun couldn't help but sneer.

Chen Nianshu listened carefully, he hadn't inquired about all these people in Beijing since he arrived in Beijing, and at this time, he listened to them and nodded. The soup and stopped for a while, with some wine and food, and the words were deeper: "Sometimes worshipping people may not necessarily be in front of the prime minister and the prince." Think about it, the prime minister is so busy, do you have time to see you, just see you, can you say a few words? Chen Nianshu blushed, he went to Prime Minister Zhang's mansion and spent thousands of taels of silver, but he didn't see anyone.

Across the dishes on the table, the old man looked at the soup carefully. In Beijing, someone needs to point out, this person is the best high-ranking official, not a high-ranking official, and this kind of idle doorman who is familiar everywhere knows a lot. Aged hesitation, this person? Will it be staggered. After thinking about it again, what if it was wrong, but it would cost a few taels of silver. Chen Nianshu no longer hesitated, got up and waved at Tang He: "Brother Nian has something to say, please advise, I will obey everything." ”

Tang He felt comfortable in his heart, these officials, they watched the martial arts in front of them, and they couldn't look at all kinds of things they did in the back. The man with a full purse was humble, and Tang He also smiled. Sitting down again, Tang He talked eloquently: "No matter how much money an adult spends, it is difficult to see the prime minister." Just like Master Chu, have you ever seen it in Beijing? ”

"When I landed in Beijing, I spent three hundred taels of silver to inquire, and he is even more difficult to see than Prime Minister Zhang. I didn't have the idea of beating him. Besides," Chen Nianshu hesitated: "I spent money again, and others told me that if Prime Minister Zhang approved it, Young Master Chu may not agree." Therefore, it is better to rely on the mountains and water, and only on one side. ”

Tang He patted his right hand in his left hand: "Wonderful, Lord Chen is an understanding person. However, "Tang He couldn't do it again, this time no one interrupted him, Chen Nianshu stared and listened carefully. Tang He said clearly and forcefully: "You have to save face on both sides." Chu family, you still have to know people. ”

"Who will it be?" Chen Nian said that he did not admit it: "Will the second master, the third master or the eldest son?" I don't know any of them. Tang He looked out the window and saw that the sun shadow was late, and he was still drinking his wine and eating his food here, talking nonsense with him. Tang He sneered: "Lady of the meeting, this is not called ability." ”

Chen Nianshu choked for a moment, and Tang He stared at him without relaxing: "Lord Chen, women have short knowledge, but their hair is long. It's not that the ladies can't do it. If you are the ninth princess, the wife of Lord Jin, I also believe that you can do it. Alas, your money is easy to come by, and I will do whatever you do. ”

"How can silver be readily available? The wind doesn't blow. Chen Nianshu grinned: "I would like to meet the Ninth Princess, Lord Jin's wife, Brother Tang Nian will help me pull a line?" ”

Tang He smiled: "If I can lead, I will know first." Chen Nian said, "Yes." Tang He squinted his eyes and said playfully: "If you can meet the Ninth Princess, at least the silver will not be wasted." Chen Nianshu held his breath: "What does Brother Nian mean?" ”

"What do you mean? I came today to tell Master Chen that whether it is the Zhang family or the Chu family, there are many adults in the family. There are not a few family members and relatives who are swaggering and deceiving people outside. The year before last, His Royal Highness King Liang slaughtered a house slave himself, for this reason. Tang He was unceremoniously, and Chen Nianshu also told the truth: "It's not me who is looking for them, it's that as soon as I stayed down to ask for an official, someone came to the door to draw the line, and it was actually the daughter of the Chu family." But I gave money, but I never saw anyone. ”

Tang He smiled so much that he had nothing to do with him: "It's okay if it's true." And he said it again. Chen Nianshu inquired several times, but Tang He didn't say anything, just as he was a traitor.

After the meal, Chen Nian's doubts and interests came up together, and he had the intention to stay in the soup and say a few more words, and the soup and Tui said that they had an appointment, and they said goodbye and left. After Tang He left, the more he thought about it in the guest room, the more wrong it became, and he called his entourage and said, "The person who collected the master's money, we know where he came from, and we are not afraid that he will run away." But who's behind him? You go and keep an eye on him, and he will have the last money to collect tomorrow, and you follow him and see where he sends the money. ”

After spending a sum of money, I heard a few words "Chu", and I didn't even see anyone. Chen Nianshu lowered his head and pondered in the room, thinking that people like the Chu family and the Zhang family were always reliable. Fortunately, Tang He came today, otherwise.......

Tang He went out, ordered a small sedan chair, and went to Zhang's house.

The person who came to see him was of medium height, but his appearance was dignified, and he was somewhat similar to Empress Zhang. However, Empress Zhang is gentle, this one has a sense of grabbing in her expression, this is one of Queen Zhang's two younger brothers, known as the uncle of the great country.

The name Uncle Xiaoguo was occupied, and Empress Zhang's second brother was known as Uncle Erguo.

Uncle Daguo heard Tang He's words, and only said "good", and Tang He was already excited. Uncle Dao smiled slightly, and then said to Tang He: "Let him finish handing over the silver, and then tell him that he has to do something after receiving the silver, and he can't return the money!" Tang He promised to go out, Uncle Guo was originally playing with the jade ring newly sent by an official in his hand, and he was in a good mood for a while, and the blue color on the ring was even more radiant. Uncle Guo looked at it with a smile, Young Master Chu couldn't get along with the bribe-taking officials this year, and he also had one in his own family.

How will he deal with this?
