"Master, the guys from the Drunken Immortal Pavilion are here to deliver wine. I also asked you if you still want to use the Accord you ordered tonight, if not, they will leave it to others. A subordinate said respectfully to Zhang Zelin who was sitting in the study.

Zhang Zelin had a numb back, and the hairs on his body stood on end, and asked, "They came here to ask me about ordering Accord?" Are you sure you didn't ask Chen Gongzi? ”

This person is Zhang Zelin's confidant, and he replied honestly: "It's you, the adult who asked!" ”

"Bring the wine up." Zhang Zexuan's heart hung tightly, and the drunken immortal pavilion did this, and the person who came was not good.

When he came to Chen Xiubo's side, he nominally took care of his exiled nephew, and he covered it up very well, and even his closest wife and children never doubted it, how did the people of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion see that something was wrong?

A wooden box was picked up, and after opening it, I saw a small blue and white porcelain vase inside, which was Zhang Zelin's favorite wine. But Zhang Zelin didn't touch the box for a while, his hands shook, and with a sound of rubbing, the box fell to the ground, the wine bottle rolled out, the thin porcelain tire was shattered, and the room was full of wine.

The wooden box was wide open, and on the brocade lining, where the wine bottle had been placed, a pair of white figures were drawn with simple strokes. One of the younger ones, lying in the arms of the older man, looked like a husband and wife in any way—if their manhood was removed.

Although the faces of the two men in the painting are very vague, Zhang Zelin couldn't understand what the painting is talking about.

"Tell the people of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion, keep my Accord, I'll go over later." Zhang Zelin's eyes flashed, but his stomach churned, and his heart tightened to his throat.

If this matter is exposed, his life will be over!

If he didn't have the support of his father-in-law and eldest brother, he would be a child of a small family from a mediocre background, and if he wanted to be a left-handed minister, even if he had the ability, he would have to survive for more than 20 years.

Zhang Zelin's head was buzzing, he knew that he liked a man when he was not married, but because of his strict family education, he has always pretended to be very good. It wasn't until many years later, at a drinking party, that he saw Chen Xiubo.

Chen Xiubo's father was his classmate when he was young, and Zhang Zelin once admired that person in his heart, but later due to different fate, each had his own whereabouts, but he didn't expect that decades later, that classmate would have died a long time ago, and his son, Chen Xiubo, who looked almost exactly like his father, was in the land of fireworks.

At first, Zhang Zelin really wanted to help the child, but later after knowing that the child was a famous little girl, things slowly took a turn for the worse.

He didn't know what was wrong, obviously he had hidden the secret that he had hidden for most of his life and was about to take to the soil, and he couldn't hide it anymore.

He liked the child, and the child was devoted to him. This child has his father's appearance and his own beauty, which makes Zhang Zelin feel like he has been poisoned, knowing that it is dangerous to go on like this, and he may kill himself, but he still can't stop.

Last time he took Chen Xiubo to participate in the students' poetry meeting, in fact, he wanted to introduce him to those talented people, and after he withdrew in the future, Chen Xiubo could also have other acquaintances and backers.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xiubo was such a curtain that he didn't take those pillars of the country in his eyes at all, but he was even more sticky to him, so that he couldn't let go when he had the heart to leave.

The drunken fairy pavilion at night is not as lively as the general restaurant, it is even quiet, the people who come here to drink, although there are also talkers, but because the four Accords are very soundproof, if it is not loud, it will not be disturbed by the next door, and it will not reveal its secrets.

Sitting in the middle of the mountain, Zhang Zelin sat upright, his eyes lowered, as if waiting for the final judgment.

I don't know how long it took, but it seemed that the other three people outside had already left, and there was a gentle knock at the door.

"Enter!" As soon as Zhang Zelin spoke, he found that his voice was too high. After waiting for a long time, he thought too much about the bad results, and there was no way to maintain that flat heart.

The door was pushed open, and Yan Qingge and Ling Xiao walked in together, one holding a pot and the other holding a snack.

Of course Zhang Zelin knew Ling Xiao and knew that she was the proprietress of this shop, and when she saw that Yan Qingge was dressed plainly and had no jewelry, she came in with Ling Xiao, and thought that Yan Qingge was also the one who worked here.

"Lord Zhang! Didn't Chen Gongzi come with you today? Yan Qingge smiled, and sat opposite him without his invitation.

Zhang Zeling's face was full of movement, and he looked at Yan Qingge in surprise, could it be that Yan Qingge was the one who invited him?

He looked at Yan Qingge and saw that she had a good appearance and a calm demeanor, although she did not have brocade clothes and dressed up in a big way, she did not look like a subordinate. It's just that her face is very unfamiliar, could it be that the noble lady of which family can't it? Or was it sent by his wife?

Thinking of the last possibility, Zhang Zelin's stomach seemed to be pinched by an iron hand.

"Master Zhang doesn't have to worry, only I know about Gongzi Chen's affairs now." Yan Qingge said lightly.

Before she was reborn, since Chen Xiubo was able to sit in the position of the first royal musician of the palace in the end, and Zhang Zeling's official position was not affected at all, it means that their relationship has not been exposed, or even if it is exposed, it will not have a great impact. Therefore, she didn't say this to him.

"What do you want me to do!" Zhang Zelin's throat tightened, and he said dryly.

"Lord Zhang, the Ming people don't say secret words, I am Princess Yan of Ning. My husband has been locked up in the palace for many days, and getting him out is my only wish at the moment. Now that everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed, and it depends on whether Lord Zhang is willing to help. Yan Qingge said.

Zhang Zelin was surprised, he didn't expect Yan Qingge to be so direct.

Yan Qingge looked at Zhang Zeling's surprised expression, and said lightly: "Lord Zhang, what do you think?" Moreover, when the time comes, not only will you contribute, but the right minister will not stand by, and the privy envoy Kang will not want to see my husband's great talents wasted in the deep palace. The little woman is not talented, but she also has some friendship with Princess Rouhui. ”

This is just a few people who are willing to help her that Yan Qingge said, Zhang Zexuan's own brain turned rapidly, and he helped Yan Qingge fill in a few: Yan Xiuyu's sister-in-law is the eldest princess of Roufu, and her brother is Yan Wangye. Yan Qingge's sister-in-law is now about to be sealed. And Yan Qingge's friend Ling Xiao is the concubine of the General Mansion of the Pillar State. Yan Qingge's uncle is the governor of Qingzhou and guards one side......

These numerous and intricate relationships made Zhang Zelin make a decision in an instant. Moreover, he had already deduced by himself that it was impossible for Yan Xiuyu to be locked up in the palace for a lifetime, and it would be a matter of time before he came out.

Now that he has figured it out, Zhang Zelin is no longer polite, and it is not difficult to solve the crisis in front of him and push the boat down the river, so he said to Yan Qingge: "But as Niangniang wants!" ”

Yan Qingge was overjoyed in his heart, and he knew that it was done.

Whether it was dealing with Kang Susheng last time or talking to Zhang Zelin this time, it was all neat and neat, and it was a one-bite deal. Yan Qingge found that it was much easier to talk to these courtiers than to talk to the women in the deep palace of the back house. As long as the interests are laid out and analyzed well, they will always choose the most advantageous side.

But women are different, they will always grind and chirp, compare and compare, and add a lot of emotional factors, and finally make a slimy decision, and finally refuse to implement it, whether they will defect in battle, and worry about it - such as the eldest princess of Roufu.

Since the matter with Zhang Zelin has been settled, Yan Qingge will no longer keep him, but before leaving, as if he remembered it by chance, he said: "I heard that Chen Gongzi is very talented, and he is quite talented in music, and now there is a shortage of musicians in the palace. If you can make a name for yourself, it will be much easier to enter and leave the Prime Minister's Mansion in the future. ”

Zhang Zelin is thirty years older than Chen Xiubo, and now he is in his fifties, and Chen Xiubo is only in his early twenties, so he has long been planning for Chen Xiubo.

What Yan Qingge said is indeed a good way, Chen Xiubo really has no other expertise except for being good at music and rhythm, and even his personality is not like a man, he can really enter the palace as a musician, he can not only get a bright background with his current lowly status, and if he enters and exits his house in the future, he will not be criticized, and he can rest assured after a hundred years.

Zhang Zelin gratefully bowed his hand to Yan Qingge and said, "Thank you for your advice!" ”

Ling Xiao and Yan Qingge returned to the backyard house together, and when Ling Xiao entered the door, he took Yan Qingge's hand in surprise and said, "Qingge, this is incredible!" ”

When she was in the room and watched Yan Qingge communicate with Zhang Zexuan, her jaw was about to drop.

When he first entered the house, Zhang Zeling's precautions and the atmosphere of the mountain rain coming and the wind filling the building were depressing, but only Yan Qingge said just two words, and the atmosphere in the house changed completely, Zhang Zelin not only agreed to what Yan Qingge said, but also was grateful to Yan Qingge.

Moreover, she didn't expect Yan Qingge to be so tolerant of Zhang Zeling's ugly things. If she hadn't suppressed her emotions again and again, didn't look at Zhang Zelin or speak, I was afraid that Zhang Zelin would have recognized her disgust a long time ago, and Yan Qingge could be like no one else, as if Zhang Zelin liked just an ordinary woman.

Hearing Ling Xiao's doubts, Yan Qingge said with a smile: "What's so strange about this, liking men and women is almost the same, some people are born like this." I think he also has a deep love for that Chen Gongzi, and it has not affected the status of his wife and children at home, so why bother to have a lover. "In comparison, those who spoil concubines and kill their wives, and raise children in the outer room to divide the family property, are hateful!

Then, she sighed: "And if I hadn't been able to treat him and Chen Gongzi with such a peaceful attitude, would he have agreed so simply?" Master Zhang is not a fool! ”

Ling Xiao nodded: "That's right!" It's also because of you, if someone else comes, this thing won't be done. Qingge, you're so capable. ”

She never thought that Yan Qingge would be able to do these things, and now, she is becoming more and more blindly worshiping Yan Qingge. One day, she will be like Yan Qingge, firmly grasping her fate in the palm of her hand.
