CHAPTER XLV
Mao Chen strode in, saw his master playing with himself again, lowered his head, and said, "Master."
Song Yujing didn't raise his head: "What?"
Mao Chen: "The imperial examination has begun."
Song Yujing nodded: "I know."
At this time, Mao Si came in to report: "Master, Xu Zheng is here."
At this time, Song Yujing finally raised his head, paused, stood up, and walked out, while instructing: "Don't let him find anything."
"Yes." Mao Si responded.
And Mao Chen watched the two of them leave like this, but he sighed in his heart, obviously he didn't know how good it was to stay outside the plug, but because he couldn't let go of the hatred in his heart, he returned to Yuanjing, and now, there is no one to talk to in Yuanjing. Although the master is quiet, he is really afraid that something will go wrong with him.
Song Yujing naturally didn't know what Mao Chen was thinking, and when he went outside, he saw Xu Zheng standing outside, he smiled and said, "Brother Xu rarely comes to my humble house, I am really shining here."
Xu Zheng looked at him and said with a smile: "Don't laugh at me, I'm a rough person, I can't understand what you say, don't let me go."
When Song Yujing heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and invited him to come in for tea. Xu Zheng didn't say which sip was good, but he drank it if he had to drink, just to warm his body.
Song Yujing opened his mouth and said, "Brother Xu, the case I asked you to help investigate before, has it been settled?"
As soon as Brother Xu talked about this matter, he frowned and said, "It's just a case of conspiracy between officials and businessmen, I handed over the case, and the officials and businessmen have already been imprisoned."
Song Yujing thanked him: "Brother Xu has done me a great favor."
Xu Zheng didn't take it to heart, waved his hand casually, and said: "When I encounter this kind of thing, I, as the head catcher of Dali Temple, should have intervened." Originally, I just didn't know, and if I did, how could I let it go. ”
Song Yujing, who listened to his words, smiled and bowed his hand to him: "Brother Xu is really the most upright person I have ever met." He saw that Xu Zheng waved his hand a little shyly, he paused, and said, "Didn't I say that I would invite you to drink a few days ago, it just so happened that under the snow in my yard there was a good daughter red on the altar, so it is better to invite you to drink today."
When Xu Zheng heard this, he was very happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "This is very good!"
Song Yujing instructed Mao Si beside him at this time: "You go to the kitchen and bring some snacks and dishes to Wangluxuan, I want to catch the head with Xu without getting drunk and returning."
Mao Si ordered: "Yes."
Song Yujing stood up, and Xu Zheng followed him around the corner and went in, and asked, "You haven't lived in this house for long, why did you bury your daughter Hong so quickly?" I heard that the days of my daughter's red burial are not long and not mellow. ”
Song Yujing smiled: "Brother Xu is too worried. Originally, the owner of this house was in the wine business, so naturally there were many burials in the house. When I discussed with him about buying the house, he said that he would have to dig up the wine buried in the house for some time, and I felt that it was troublesome, so I bought the wine directly. In this way, he will not lose anything, and I will have good wine to drink,"
Xu Zheng nodded when he heard this, and said with a smile: "You are careful and save a lot of trouble."
Song Yujing didn't care much when he heard this, and only said to Xu Zheng: "If Brother Xu is about this business next time, you can come and ask me, and you will never let you suffer."
When Xu Zheng heard this, he laughed and said, "As an official, I naturally have very little money exchange, but if there is, I will definitely come to you."
Bai Zi's pink face was full of smiles, and he said: "Now that I am a young man, I borrow wine to express my lyricism, and my life is like this only a few times." Light spring, rare beauty, we have fate, if happy, you don't have to think about other things, such a time, but just ranran. ”
As soon as Ma Dao heard this, he really stopped holding it, revealing his usual appearance at the same time as Bai Jue.
Ma Dao was let go, but Bai Jue ordered Bai not to drink, and said that he wanted to be known by his parents, for fear that he would break his leg.
Bai couldn't cry or laugh, and pleaded again and again, but Bai Jue made up her mind and didn't allow her to drink, and ordered Zhuzi to make her a pot of big red robes and put it in front of her. The two of them drank, and she drank tea.
Bai Zi: "......"
This is the first time she has been aggrieved!
Although, she also knows...... There is a difference between men and women, if it is rumored that she drinks with a man, she is not afraid of gossip, but she may have to make Bai Jugao and Bai Zhan scold them bloody.
Ma Dao is a very modest and pragmatic person, Bai Zi admires his temperament very much, which is why Bai Jue has made friends with him among many students.
The three of them chatted and chatted, and then talked about the affairs of Ma Dao's family.
Bai Jue: "Xuezhi, how did you handle the things in your family some time ago?"
Although Ma Dao was still a little unnatural when he talked about this matter, he was able to say it more easily, and said: "Fortunately, a few days ago, Xu Zheng, a famous arrester in Dali Temple, happened to pass through Jiangnan because of the case, and learned about the matter in my family, and investigated the matter clearly, and reported it, and the corrupt official and the profiteer have been imprisoned."
Bai Jue nodded, happy for him: "That's fine." I really didn't expect that there would be such corrupt officials in such a beautiful place in the south of the Yangtze River, which is really infuriating! ”
Seeing this, Ma Dao had some relieved smiles on his face, he was very grateful to Xu Zheng, and he was very happy, he was really fortunate to have such a friend.
Of course, Shiro himself also knows. It's just that she is a little strange, why Xu Zheng suddenly went to Jiangnan, and she didn't hear about any cases to investigate. It's just that maybe she doesn't know the secret. However, if it is only the matter of a businessman, it may not be reported so quickly, it is just a matter of corrupt officials colluding with profiteers, but it is not tolerated by Da Zhou!
At this time, Bai Jue's other waiter, Qingshan, hurriedly ran over, stood in front of the three of them, and said busily while panting:
"Gong ...... Son...... See...... ...... list"
Bai Zi immediately asked Zhu'er to pour him a cup of tea, Qingshan was flattered and took it, poured it into his mouth at once, stood up straight, took a long breath, and bent down again: "Congratulations to Gongzi, congratulations to Gongzi Ma." It's the first in the world! Ma Gongzi is the eye of the example, and the son is the lifter. ”
When the three of them heard this, their faces were all different colors, Bai Zi was stunned for a moment, looked at Bai Jue's somewhat stiff face, and then turned to Qingshan and said loudly: "Qingshan has done a good job, Zhu'er, reward!"
Bai Jue came back to his senses in these loud words, and saw Zhu'er put a bag of silver into Qingshan's hand, and Qingshan happily saluted him and Bai Zi, only to realize that he had lost his mind. Looking at Ma Dao again, Ma Dao looked surprised, and his heart was stunned, and he sincerely congratulated him: "Congratulations on learning, your talent is worthy of being an example!"
