This big official, burly, dignified, with three strands of beard, about forty years old, wearing a soap and gold robe, wearing a scarf, and a slightly protruding belly, makes people feel that they are not angry and self-imposing, and they have a unique majesty.

Seeing him, the imperial priest arched his hand and said with a smile: "I have seen Li Daguan, and he is old and polite." Then Li Daguan caught a glimpse of Chen Jianchen behind him, and couldn't help asking, "Outside, who is this?"

The emperor let go of his body and introduced: "This is a student from Jiangzhou Minghua College, surnamed Chen, a famous swordman, and a young man, who is an old and old friend. ”

In fact, he and Chen Jianchen are only meeting for the second time, but the kung fu introduced is so exquisite, so as not to be looked down upon by the other party, then his face will be bad.

Sure enough, Li Daguan immediately smiled, and said very enthusiastically: "I see, the friends outside the staff are the friends below, hurry up and invite them inside." ”

Things were in a hurry just now, Chen Jianchen didn't know the details of this Li Yifeng from Xiang'er's mouth, and now when he sees it, his first impression is that he feels that the other party has a heroic attitude, his demeanor is generous, and he is not easy to deal with. Immediately said: "Come uninvited, take the liberty to disturb, and ask for forgiveness from the officials." Li Yifeng laughed and waved his hand proudly and dryly: "What are you talking about? You and I are both scholars, and the so-called reading in the world is the same classmate, regardless of each other." If you say that, you'll be punished for drinking!" he said, laughing again.

Soon, they entered the hall of the painting boat, and saw that it was very spacious, with more than three square meters, and more than ten tables were placed in it, and the guests were full of seats, and it was very lively.

Li Yifeng took the imperial servant and Chen Jianchen to an empty table and sat down, instructed the shì girl to pour tea and wine, and after a few words of greeting, he went to another place to greet the guests.

Taking advantage of his free time, Chen Jianchen asked: "Outside, are you very familiar with Li Daguan?" ”

Chen Jianchen's heart suddenly lit up, and he understood that Yan Fu and Li Yifeng did not have a good relationship, and asked: "Outside the staff, this Li Daguan should be an official?"

The emperor took a sip of tea and said, "No, he was promoted as a second-class jinshi in the middle of last year, and he could have served in the county seat, but he shirked it himself." The so-called "shirk" Chen Jianchen suddenly heard the meaning of the strings, and knew that as soon as the Tao was in the Tiantong Dynasty, he could be arranged by the Ministry of Officials to take up his post as an official after being promoted. However, due to the issue of ranking in the middle and the reason of the class of origin, there are many levels of officials.

The official positions assigned to the general jinshi are not very good, most of them are clerks, masters, etc., and the better ones are county officials and the like, and there are very few who can directly serve as county orders.

In this way, there are some problems of choosing xìng, for example, after Xiucai is lifted, because he can't be assigned a good black yarn hat for the time being, he can shirk it, but keep his oak white body and wait for the opportunity.

Of course, this opportunity is not something that can be waited for, it requires a lot of "activities", a huge amount of "money offensive", and so on.

However, Li Yifeng has already been promoted, no matter what, an official body can't run away, so everyone calls him a "big official", and the title of this world has its own attention, and Xiucai is a "Xianggong" Jinshi can be a "big official" and "master".

As soon as Chen Jianchen no longer struggled with the rigid form of Baguwen, he has done enough homework in this regard, so he has a deep understanding. After all, the greatest power in the red dust world comes from power, and only by grasping it can you better develop your ambitions and implement your ambitions. Otherwise, there is no status, no matter how you jump into the ether, it is difficult to jump into the climate.

There is a saying: "If you don't make decisions with the people, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes." If you sell sweet potatoes at home, it is even more impossible to be the master of the people.

That's what I'm talking about.

Through the answer of the emperor's staff, Chen Jianchen immediately grasped Li Yifeng's identity background, as well as his deeper ambitions.

The emperor's eyes flickered, and he suddenly asked: "Chen Gongzi seems to be very curious about Li Daguan!" Chen Jianchen smiled: "Of course, Li Daguanren's Jinshi background is what my generation is eager for." "Peel it off with a gentle word.

The emperor said loudly, and said meaningfully: "The prince deceived me with this words, he was old and talented, and he also knew some face skills, I looked at the immortals, although he was a rich and noble person, but he would never be keen on nostalgia because of this, how could he bend his waist for the fame of a scholar?"

Hearing this, Chen Jianchen's heart moved: this outsider with a mysterious origin is really not an ordinary person, and he copeded with it in his mouth: "The outsider has a good reputation, as the so-called "no one asks about the cold window for ten years, and he becomes famous in the world in one fell swoop" Learning and excellence is the pursuit of readers such as us. ”

Hearing this, the imperial priest smiled intriguingly and did not continue to argue.

Chen Jianchen breathed a sigh of relief, found a vacancy, said that he wanted to walk around, take a look, and leave the table.

Looking at his back, the emperor was contemplative, and suddenly muttered to himself in a low and inaudible voice: "This son is open-minded and well-informed, free and uninhibited, and not rigid, and he is the best choice."

Na'er, no matter what, Daddy will invite him back to you as a teacher."

When he went outside, Chen Jianchen immediately called Xiang'er over and gave him a face-to-face lecture.

Xiang'er is small, but very clever, and is serving people in the bird walking building, she has seen and heard a lot, and she has developed a smart and clever xìngzi, and after getting Chen Jianchen's instructions, she nodded again and again.

The two of them pretended to hang out, looking for traces of the princess Lu everywhere, but they didn't show up for a stick of incense, and they couldn't help but feel a little impatient, especially Xiang'er, who was so anxious that she was about to cry again.

It took too long to come out, which would inevitably make people suspicious, and in desperation, Chen Jianchen had to take Xiang'er back again.

At this time, the tables in the atrium of the painting boat were basically seated, and the banquet was also open early.

Chen Jianchen re-seated and gossiped with the emperor. Suddenly, Xiang'er, who was standing behind him, stretched out her little hand and pinched him on his back.

This girl doesn't know the severity of her hands, and it hurts a lot.

As soon as Chen Jianchen turned his head slightly, he saw Xiang'er quietly gesturing to him. Following the gesture, I saw two women coming in at the door of the atrium, the first one, full of fat powder, dressed in gold and silver, twisting and twisting with small steps, looking like a little girl, but when it comes to age, she is the mother of a little girl!

The woman behind her is really youthful, with a bewitching figure and very simple clothes, but just from the figure, she is a rare beauty, but it is a pity that she has a thin veil on her face, and she can only see a pair of beautiful crescent eyebrows, and bright big eyes like stars under the eyebrows.

From Xiang'er's performance, Chen Jianchen immediately knew that this girl was her young lady, Gong Lu!

Chen Jianchen's eyes were burning, and he paid close attention to Lu Gongnu's every move, and saw that since she entered the atrium, her head naturally drooped slightly, and a pair of jade hands were holding a guqin.

Sharp weapons, hide in this piano!

Chen Jianchen quickly came to a conclusion, all because of the princess Lu, there is no way to hide the blade in other places, and the best place to hide the blade is obviously the guqin.

It seems that she has also been preparing for a long time and came prepared.

They walked in, and the eyes of everyone present looked at it at once, most of them fell on the princess Lu, and there was no shortage of people with great thoughts.

Li Yifeng was the first to stand up, stepped forward and said to the leading woman: "Mother Zhang, is this what you said, the Miss Lu who came to perform piano music?" The mother Zhang smiled and said: "Exactly, Miss Lu's piano skills are really unparalleled in the world, and the world must not hear it a few times!"

Li Yifeng laughed: "Mother Zhang's words are not exaggerated, if this female piano skill is so powerful, why haven't I heard of it before." Zhang's mother replied: "Miss Lu is not a local, but passing through Suzhou, but she just happened to be out of content, so she deigned to agree to perform a song to earn some money." ”

Li Yifeng sighed, looked at Princesse Lu, and said, "That's really the case." ”

Zhang's mother replied: "Where is there a fake ...... here", but was suddenly interrupted by Li Yifeng: "Miss Lu, you can answer." ”

Gongnu Lu bent down slightly and said, "The concubine doesn't dare to lie." Its voice is like the first cry of a yellow warbler, and the ears of people are softened all of a sudden.

Li Yifeng laughed and said: "Okay, but since you are going to perform, why don't you unveil the veil and let the officials feast their eyes." ”

There was an immediate uproar in response.

Mother Zhang whispered: "Big official, Miss Lu is not on the painting boat, so" "Shut up!" Li Yifeng snorted and said: "Since this little lady can go on the painting boat to perform the piano skills, then she has to do things according to the rules on the painting boat, and quickly take off the veil to let the official and all the VIPs take a look." Hehe, little lady, you don't have to be afraid, this official has always been reasonable, if you really look in my eyes, you will have a reward. ”

The lower the head of the princess Lu was, black as a cloud, and said: "The concubine has a rude appearance, and she doesn't dare to frighten the big officials and the distinguished guests." Li Yifeng couldn't hear her pushing, snorted coldly, and said, "There's a lot of nonsense, do you have to wait for the official to do it?" took a step forward and made a gesture to reach out and tear off the veil on her face.

At the same time, Chen Jianchen clearly saw that the right hand of the princess Lu was quietly hidden under the bottom of the guqin, as if she had grasped some sharp weapon, and even her arms were trembling slightly.

First, she had to wait for Li Yifeng to get close, and then draw her sharp blade to kill the other party by surprise. At that time, the sword of Dingjiao will be revealed, and the blood will be seen.

"Miss, I've finally found you!"

At this critical moment, Xiang'er behind Chen Jianchen couldn't bear it anymore, threw Chen Jianchen's instructions out of the clouds, and rushed up quickly without consent, and rushed to the front of the princess Lu at once. ！。
