Chapter 5 Python

The New Year is approaching, and tonight will be Chinese New Year's Eve.

Heicheng, who has been busy for more than a month, is finally going to celebrate the New Year's holiday.

After the moon rises out of the mountain, the sound of firecrackers resounded in the streets and alleys, and the sky above Miyagi also sounded with salutes, some like blooming flowers, some like colorful raindrops, some just like phoenix nirvana, and more silver falling colors.

Under the fireworks, there are also performances of jugglers of temple fairs on the streets, and at this time you can always make a lot of money.

In the brightly lit capital, people are smiling side by side, and the city is a festive and peaceful scene.

But after the sound of firecrackers that shook the mountains and trees, it was not that every family was immersed in the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with no seats.

In a restaurant in the west of the city, there is another group of nobles, who are thinking about how to spend this year.

Inside the Dream Immortal Residenceβ€”β€”

"Little two! Two more taels of wine and a roast goose. A table of men shouted at the top of their voices.

"Okay! Wait! Right away! "The little two in the restaurant are running without touching the ground one by one, even if the table is sluggish.

"Little two! Add a chicken fat shiitake mushroom and three fresh duck tongues. ”

"Come, the bean paste cold cake of the young owner of the Zhong family, a product of official swallows, honey yam, go and serve."

"Okay!"

I don't dare to say that those who can come to Mengxian Residence to eat are all royal relatives and nobles, but they are definitely not bad at money, and they earn more tonight, and everyone can get more red envelopes! That's all there is hope in my heart, and I'm working one by one, and I'm full of energy!

In a private room on the third floor, there is no such celebration as below.

Fei Luhong: "Lord Zuo, why did you come, this made Xiaguan and Wen Bin wait for a while." ”

A man who looked at him in his thirties said.

Fei Luhong, who is appointed as an official in the household department, has been stammering with all kinds of books, and the power in his hands is not very great, but it is definitely not small, but he has been doing some shady things in the gutter.

Zhong Wenbin: "Yes, this Chinese New Year's Eve is really a lot of nobles." ”

Zhong Wenbin, the squire of the military department, his eyes are always erratic, looking for a livelihood that can be deducted from the money everywhere.

Zhong Wenbin relied on his father's meritorious service in a battle before moving the capital to Pingcheng, but he also died of injuries and illness.

As soon as the curtain opened, a man in his forties greeted him.

In front of him is a sable person, with a pleasant face, he looks ordinary, but between his eyebrows, people dare not get too close.

Although he walked vigorously, his steps were very steady, and he didn't seem to be in the same world as the bustling wine and meat downstairs.

This is the "Lord Zuo" in Fei Luhong's mouth - Zuo Zhuo.

Zuo Zhuo was the uncle of the emperor Tuoba Jue of the current dynasty, and was the prime minister with a different surname in the current dynasty, and was crowned Yixiang Gong in the first year of the founding of the country.

As soon as Lord Zuo entered the door, he didn't speak, and beckoned the people who followed him to guard the door, but just sat down and drank a cup of tea quietly.

"Lord Zuo, what's the latest trend? The household department has not dared to move these days. ”

As soon as Fei Luhong came up to see Zuo Zhuo and didn't speak, he panicked. I heard that a few days ago, the head of the household was reprimanded by the emperor in front of the emperor.

Zhong Wenbin sat down and laughed when he heard this: "That's because he is not long-sighted, knowing that the emperor has been worrying about food and salary recently, and he has not yet spoken up!" ”

Zuo Zhuo was still drinking tea, as if he couldn't hear the two of them talking, Zhong Wenbin and Fei Luhong saw this, so they didn't continue to talk.

"Finished?" A magnetic sound came from the rim of the teacup.

Zhong Wenbin and Fei Luhong looked at each other for a moment, not understanding what was going on.

Zuo Zhuo didn't raise his head, just looked at the tea in front of him, and listened to the people eating and talking downstairs.

"Brother Fei, have you figured out the affairs of your household department by yourself?"

What does this mean? What do you mean by not figuring out the affairs of the household department?

Fei Luhong didn't understand what he meant: "My lord, I don't know what I am, please give me advice." ”

"Fingering?" A smirk crossed Zuo Zhuo's face.

"Don't you know that there are people around you who are unclean? Wu Mabo played two days ago, saying that the prefect of Qingzhou was ...... in the local area"

"Ahh

Before Zuo Zhuo finished speaking, Fei Luhong was shocked.

When Fei Luhong heard this, his hand shook, and suddenly he sat there and didn't move, his eyes panicked and he didn't know where to look.

"This, this will definitely find me if you check it down, Lord Zuo, you can help me!"

Zhong Wenbin looked at Fei Luhong like this, thinking that it should be a big thing, but is he so timid?

Zuo Zhuo looked like a weasel like this, and he didn't have the guts: "What are you panicking about, the original picture is sitting here now, what are you afraid of?" Am I here to get you? ”

Fei Luhong looked at Zuo Zhuo's appearance, and felt that this might be related to the refutation of the Hubu Shangshu Wu Ma Bo Imperial Front. understands that it should be Zuo Zhuo who has settled this matter.

"Lord Zuo, I think it must be the adults who came to the rescue, if this matter can be done, the lower officials are grateful!"

"You don't have to thank me. The day before Wu Ma Bo played, I happened to get a case in which Wu Ma Bo's subordinates were discussing the new policy compradors, and there was a mistake in the reconsideration of the price code, which caused the household department to lose 2,000 taels of silver for no reason. I just pushed the boat down the river and made a mouth go up. The emperor has been suspicious recently, and he thought that Wu Mabo was shirking his responsibilities and not mentioning big things, so he was angry, but in fact, I just took out this matter earlier. It's you, the prefect of Qingzhou, I sent someone to find out that the people in your house are not reliable. ”

After hearing this, Fei Luhong knelt on the ground and bowed to show his gratitude, and he also confessed that there was a mistake in this matter for Zuo Zhuo to find out, and it was not easy to explain.

"Thank you, sir."

When Fei Luhong bowed, he lowered his head and thought about his words.

"My lord, Xia Guan will find someone to be the prefect of Qingzhou tomorrow, this situation will definitely not happen again, please forgive me. I will definitely check the people around me, and there will be no more mistakes like this! ”

Zuo Zhuo didn't show any expression at all.

Zhong Wenbin watched from the side and didn't dare to speak.

This Zuo Zhuo has too many means, and he is the prime minister of the dynasty and the uncle of the emperor.

Since Zhong Wenbin decided to do things under Zuo Zhuo for a long time, Zhong Wenbin has seen Zuo Zhuo fight against the court and give advice, and he is not a person at all when he leaves the court, this person is not like only good and bad, but like a thousand sides.

Zuo Zhuo was not surprised by this result, he was still as calm as ever.

"No need, Benxiang has already found someone to kill the prefect, as for those people in your mansion, you can check it yourself."

Fei Luhong shuddered after hearing this.

The prefect of Qingzhou is a relative of him and his distant relatives, and since he sat in the post of household department, the two have been doing some shady things. The prefect of Qingzhou occupied the land of the good people, and also privately withheld a large amount of silver issued by the imperial court, but these were all secretly approved by Fei Luhong, but Zuo Zhuo should not know about these.

Don't! Is there Zuo Zhuo's eyeliner in the house?

This......

Ben just wanted to agree to Zuo Zhuo, and then secretly cut off the business, but he didn't think about it, he wanted to kill someone......

"Yes." After Fei Luhong answered, he sat back down.

Zhong Wenbin saw all this.

Although Fei Luhong said that he had also used his position to make some ill-gotten gains, he was not the kind of person with a vicious mind, but the prime minister sitting in front of him, he couldn't see through what kind of person this person was, and he didn't know what this person wanted to do.

He is like a giant python hiding on the seashore, treacherous but silent, this kind of person is above the high position of the court, which is really chilling.
