Chapter 358: It's better to save yourself than to ask for help

When Li Chongshan came home, it was already late at night, and there was no strong smell of wine on his body, Mrs. Li sniffed and hurriedly pulled him down, and told him about Shi Zhangbi's coming home.

"He came to see you this time, you have to be careful tomorrow, don't ask someone to take a basket of truths."

In the past, Shi Zhangbi wore a cloak every time he came, covering his whole body tightly, and there were people protecting him along the way, so Mrs. Li turned a blind eye.

But the current situation is different from the past, Chen Buhou's first assistant is not done, and how many people are staring at the vacant seats he vacated and salivating. Li Chongshan is also a scholar, and he has enough ability, why can't he fight?

Fighting, it shows that men are ambitious and capable, who doesn't want to have a capable husband? Mrs. Lee is no exception.

"I will." Li Chongshan patted her, and two drunken light flushes remained on his cheeks, "So why is he here?" ”

"Wait." Mrs. Li stuffed the soaked cold cloth into Li Chongshan's hand, and went inside for a while, "I'm stupid, and I can't remember things, so I took a pen and wrote it down." ”

Li Chongshan took it and leaned under the lamp and squinted at it.

The tone has a bit of Shi Zhangbi's taste, and the words are still Mrs. Li's words. Li Chongshan smiled silently, and bent his finger to knock on the back of Mrs. Li's head. "Naughty."

"Coincidentally, in the second half of the day, I was still talking to Miss Bilan about asking God to ask the Buddha, and there was a problem with the incense money under the Ministry of Rites."

There are four divisions in the ceremonial department, each division has a squire in charge of a class of affairs, Shi Zhangbi was assigned to the ancestral temple to worship the Qing officials, and he is in charge of all the nunnery, temples and Taoist temples in the world.

Originally, the Ministry of Rites would always keep a part of the incense money after receiving it, and the rest would be sent to the household department for accounting, and everyone knew it, and over time it was set down as a rule, but it was not written down in clear text.

"Didn't you make a fuss seven or eight years ago, the emperor didn't make a deal at that time, and he will listen to the household department today?"

Li Chongshan seemed to think of something, and called Queqiao to come in.

"You go to the Child's Courtyard and ask him what is the name of the newcomer to the household department that he mentioned next day?"

Queqiao turned his head and ran towards Li Bozhang's yard.

"Mad girl." Mrs. Li reprimanded.

Although Li Chongshan treats Queqiao as a boy, Queqiao is a peugeot, and his voice and body have nothing to do with the boy, and I don't know what he thinks.

When Queqiao is old in a few years, she will have to find someone else to see what he does.

Mrs. Li thought wildly, and Queqiao Feng'er came back and stood outside the door for a while: "Gongzi said that the surname is Zhang, and he is a student of He Fangnian, the current prefect of Ruyang. ”

"It's no wonder that after taking a look at him from a distance in the duty compound, he feels that his bearing is like a person."

It's just like something bad, but Xiao Fangnian's temperament, and he is a counselor in this life.

Mrs. Li didn't care who the surname Zhang had to do with it, she only asked: "Shi Shilang's help, help or not?" You said that I have a number in my heart, and the next time he comes back, there will be a reply to him. ”

"Help, you can't help for nothing." Li Chongshan squinted his eyes, and then set fire to the gold rice paper in his hand, "Don't forget to burn Shi Shilang's handwriting." ”

Mrs. Li pouted, and went to look around again.

"You said you weren't confused!"

"Daddy." Hui'er rubbed her eyes and sat up, the cloak covering her body slid to the ground, grabbing the corners of Hao Tingmei's clothes indiscriminately, and her voice was glutinous and wanted to cry or not.

"Hui'er continues to sleep, Uncle Ren Ming'er will take you to the street to buy candy to eat."

'The culprit' Ren Shuhua gently patted Hui'er's back, lulled her to sleep, turned his head and continued to stare at Shi Zhangbi, who was almost shrunk into a ball.

Just as he was about to speak, Hao Tingmei persuaded him: "You can be quiet, wake up Hui'er again, let's sleep tonight." ”

Mrs. Hao's maiden sister got married, and she went back to help her in the past few days, leaving Hui'er to three men who couldn't take care of people. Because the house was turned upside down by the energetic Hui'er during the day, the three of them had to take Hui'er to sleep in the pergola in the courtyard.

Ren Shuhua pressed his throat as much as possible, and Shi Zhangbi on the other side of the air point, "You, you, you are too calm." A petty official who plans to take care of the household department scares you? ”

"He's not an ordinary man."

"It's natural not an ordinary person who can scare you so that the three souls are missing the second soul, but what does it matter, you are a five-grade official, my Lord Shi!" I am not afraid of jokes from my colleagues when I spread it.

Shi Zhangbi stretched his sleeves to wipe his sweat, and his throat was sharp and thin for fear of Hui'er who was sleeping noisily, "He, he is He Fangnian's student, and he has He Fangnian's upright style." ”

Ren Shuhua snorted, "So you're afraid?" Even He Fangnian is here at the moment, he won't talk about the incense money, he dares to say that he is sitting in this position, he won't do this? ”

"Although Brother Shuhua's words are a little ugly, there is some truth in them."

Hao Tingmei picked up the cloak on the ground and covered Hui'er's small body tightly, so that she had time to say a word to Shi Zhangbi.

"You really didn't think about it when you went to beg Li Chongshan today, it's good that you didn't see it, if you don't want to be right or wrong if you see it, it's lucky. But it happened to be seen by the wrong mind? ”

Shi Zhangbi trembled and said, "I want to do it." ”

Hao Tingmei nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.

"The three of us received this errand, it's not that we don't do anything, and we don't have to mix everything up...... Only by keeping their jobs can they have the confidence to compete with them and grab them. ”

Ren Shuhua and Shi Zhangbi bowed their heads together.

"It's not a bad thing for the household to introduce a clear stream, you only know that Zhang Ji once worshiped He Fangnian and called him Mr., but you don't know that he and Zhang Zijie are cousins, right?"

"Brother Tingmei, don't lie to me, in this way, there will be no peace in the capital......"

Hao Tingmei smiled, "As far as I know, although Zhang Ji and Zhang Zijie are cousins, their relationship is very close. Last time, Zhang Zijie was unfortunately slandered by rumors, and people may want to take advantage of his position to teach a group of people a lesson. ”

"Aren't we ......?"

Shi Zhangbi was stunned after speaking, there is nothing to do with the Ministry of Etiquette at all, but why did Zhang Ji implicate him?

Ren Shuhua really knocked on his head this time.

"You are stupid, since Zhang Ji is a student of He Fangnian, how can he have the same mind as ordinary people? In the past, you sneaked into the Li Mansion, and he may have found out. ”

"I, you, you all know that I was wronged!" Shi Zhangbi was so anxious that he sweated again.

"Okay, okay, don't worry, of course Brother Tingmei and I know that you were wronged, otherwise I would have chopped you up and fed the dogs."

was disturbed by his nonsense, and most of the panic in Shi Zhangbi's heart disappeared, "That incense money, will the emperor punish it severely this time?" ”

Hao Tingmei pointed to her money bag: "That depends on your performance." ”
