Chapter 123: Chicken Essence is a Refined Chicken
Here's the big thing!
I really can't get around this topic today!
Cai Jing, Wang Hao, He Su, and Lan Congxi immediately straightened their waists and stared at Jiang Chen like fighting cocks.
Jiang Chen smiled lightly: "Thank you for your kindness!" So far, everything is going well!
He Tiju not only actively cooperated with Wechen, but also asked Wechen to recruit and select people at will, saying that even if Wechen summoned all the Xiyao Xiang Army, he would have nothing to say! β
Well?
Is that so?
How is it diametrically opposed to what King Yun said?
Song Huizong was stunned!
Cai Jing, Wang Hao and He Su were also dumbfounded, and their eyes were full of surprise.
How so?
Why is the little traitor willing to miss this great opportunity to ask the official for help?
Has he seen through our intentions?
It shouldn't be!
Cai Jing narrowed his old eyes and stared at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
Seeing Cai Jing's reaction, Jiang Chen secretly laughed, and looked at He with a playful expression: "He Tiju, what the lower official said is not wrong, right?" β
"No, that's right!"
He Su naturally didn't take the initiative to admit that he was making things difficult for Jiang Chen, so he nodded uncomfortably and said, "We are all working for the official family, so naturally we have to work together!" β
"Really? If so, then I will be at ease! β
Song Huizong looked at Jiang Chen and He Su with a strange expression.
Seeing Jiang Chen's confident appearance, when he was curious about how Jiang Chen would deal with this matter, he couldn't help but have some expectations for this 'chosen one'.
After listening to Jiang Chen's storytelling that day, he sat down next to Empress Zheng and watched several harem beauties play mahjong.
Seeing this, Jiang Chen, Cai Jing and others all retired and left Yanfu Palace.
However, when he was halfway there, Jiang Chen remembered something, and suddenly stopped and was about to walk back.
"Huh? Where are you going? β
You know it's so tiring to stare at you without knowing your true face!
Don't run around anymore, okay?
Cai Jing stopped Jiang Chen with a painful face, for fear that Jiang Chen would use Hong Huang Benji to do things in front of Song Huizong.
"Xia Guan forgot to collect the money for the official's rock sugar gourd and tea eggs!"
Jiang Chen explained frankly.
Cai Jing was so angry that his face twitched, and he said angrily: "How much?" Here you are! β
"Thirty taels of rock sugar gourd......"
"Humph! Isn't it just thirty taels? True ......"
"The tea egg is five thousand taels!"
Uh-
"How much? You repeat?
Haven't you ever eaten an egg in your own right? β
Cai Jing is furious!
With red old eyes, he stared at Jiang Chen with great annoyance.
"Eggs are not valuable, but the tea leaves used are top-notch Yangxian tea! There is also essence of chicken...... By the way, Cai Xiang, do you know what chicken essence is? Jiang Chen looked at Cai Jing with a curious look on his face.
"Essence of chicken?
Do you even have chickens in your family? β
Cai Jing was so angry that his old face turned black and he almost suffered a cerebral hemorrhage.
Jiang Chen shook his head amusedly: "Cai Xiang misunderstood!" Essence of chicken is the essence of 9,999 old hens, and you ...... when you ate it."
"Enough, don't say it again!"
Cai Jing couldn't listen anymore, squinted his old eyes and stared at Jiang Chen and said, "It's okay to give you five thousand taels if you want to be in this phase!" But you have to tell the real picture, who is the name you just wrote on the note? β
"The lower official can't say it directly, otherwise that person is killed, won't Cai Xiang and the lower official have to bear the suspicion?"
Jiang Chen said, seeing that Cai Jing's eyes were getting more and more unkind, he quickly added: "I said a poem about him, and only half of Cai Xiang's money will be charged, as for whether you can guess it, it depends on Cai Xiang's ability, how about it?" β
"You say!"
Cai Jing suppressed his anger and nodded helplessly.
"Enwei Zhangfu County, loyal and filial piety to the capital. Xu Guozhi is strong, and he has nothing to do for the mountain. The west wind is the old forest road, and the autumn sound is bleak! β
"Cai Xiang, remember to go back and send me the money!"
Jiang Chen waved his hand to Cai Jing with a smile and left directly.
"Huh?
Is this an anagram poem? How does it sound like an elegy? β
Wang Hao frowned, and said with a skeptical expression: "He shouldn't have deliberately deceived us, right?" β
"Since he is willing to say it, there is no need to lie to us!"
Cai Jing shook his head and ordered: "You all study it carefully when you go back, and be sure to crack it out as soon as possible!" I can't figure out the identity of the bird and crane, and I always feel a little unsure. β
"Yes, the lower official knows!"
Wang Hao agreed, and then looked at Jiang Chen's back with unwilling eyes and said: "This little traitor has the Flood Desolation Benji in his hand, and it is really becoming more and more rampant.
When he finishes the book, Ben Shangshu must make him die ugly! β
β¦β¦
When Wang Hao hated Jiang Chen to the point that the roots of his teeth itched, Gu Feihong was handing over a secret piece to Song Huizong and reported:
"Official, all the backgrounds of Master Jiang have been investigated clearly. Before coming to Beijing, he had never left his hometown in Shanyang, and there was nothing special except for studying hard behind closed doors, sincerity and filial piety. β
"Hmm."
Song Huizong nodded, and while looking at the secret music, he asked, "Has anyone seen Liangchen's master?" β
"Nope!"
Gu Feihong shook his head affirmatively: "Neither Shanyang nor anyone who has come into contact with him along the way has ever seen it!" None of the people of the same clan of Lord Jiang knew the immortal numbers and elemental symbols. β
Also, it is said that his fiancΓ©e is the daughter of Liu Zongyuan, not the widow!
I don't know if Master Jiang was deceived by someone, or if there was a mistake!
Gu Feihong added another sentence in his heart.
However, he was worried about causing unnecessary trouble, and he accepted bribes from Jiang Chen's ten golden members' waist cards, so he didn't say anything about it after a little hesitation.
"You mean, Liangchen's master was made up by himself?"
Song Huizong's face was gloomy, and his eyes were cold and staring at Gu Feihong.
Gu Feihong was so shocked that a cold sweat immediately broke out on his back, and he hurriedly shook his head and said, "Official, the minister didn't mean that!" If Master Jiang didn't have a master, then his magical ability wouldn't make sense at all!
So Master Jiang must have an amazing master, but ......"
Gu Feihong paused, looked at Song Huizong's face cautiously and continued:
"There are two guesses! First, Master Jiang's ability was taught in a dream; The second is that his master has special means to make people turn a blind eye, or to quickly forget about it after seeing it.
No matter which one is possible, it must be a fairy method! β
"Hmmm! From this point of view, Jiang Chen's master must be an immortal! β
Song Huizong nodded in agreement, and when his doubts were gone, he ordered: "Find out the book of ten thousand words that Zong Ze wrote during the palace examination that year, and I have to read it again!" β
"Yes!"
Gu Feihong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, bowed down and retreated.
β¦β¦
When Gu Feihong was looking for the 10,000-word book written during the Zong Ze Palace exam, Jiang Chen was teaching Zhu Qu and the others the children and nephews of mathematics and double-entry accounting in the Sinan Building.
Since these people are all the children of merchants, they are extremely fast learners.
Among them, Zhu Chengju, Cheng Mufeng, Zhou Jihai and Hao Shu, the little eunuch who was favored by Jiang Chen for helping the poor woman get ahead, have almost reached the point of becoming a teacher.
This made Jiang Chen very pleased, and the orthodox church was energetic, and Wang Wenhan and Zhang Hongwen came over with joyful faces.
