Chapter 19: Revenge Doesn't Stay Overnight

"Yesterday I had my hands in my pockets and I didn't know what an opponent was."

Xu Jingchang said with a smile: "Six important ministers, so many people besieged, all of them let me be defeated, that is called a majestic and majestic, better than the three British battle Lu Bu, not let Zhao Zilong of Changbanpo." ”

Wu Shan had already heard this say three times, "Lord Tongzheng, you are majestic, but Your Majesty has issued a decree to select ministers from the Hanlin Academy as advisors." We didn't get any benefits, but offended so many yamen, how will we live in the future? ”

Xu Jingchang's face sank instantly, "Can you not mention the words of discouragement?" Isn't this still the case with Jianyi, Xia Yuanji, and Ru Yu's insects! Especially that Chen Ying, he is even more crumbs in the world, he has to mention anything to reinstate the prime minister, and he thought that he could use Emperor Taizu to bring me down, and he didn't want to think about it, now that the emperor has changed, His Majesty really doesn't want to reinstate the prime minister? It's stupid. ”

Xu Jingchang scolded, and then said: "Forget it, anyway, the affairs of the court have nothing to do with me." It's been a few days since I've been at the General Administration Department, and we're both colleagues, so we should have a dinner together or something. Have you ever been to the Qinhuai River? Have you ever experienced the scenery over there? ”

Wu Shan's old face flushed, "My lord, do you mean to lead the lower officials to the Qinhuai River?" ”

"Yes, wouldn't it be nice to listen to music, eat something good, and go on a boat?"

Wu Shan was even more embarrassed, "Then go to listen to the song and go boating?" Nothing else? ”

Xu Jingchang said angrily: "In the past, our family was the uncle who had the final say, and he was strictly controlled. If you know anything fun, tell me about it. ”

Only then did Wu Shan figure out that he dared to love this person was still a chick.

"It's not a secret, my old wife at home is also very strict, that is, she has been with her colleagues twice, and she has to carry a brocade guard on her back, so as not to let them keep an eye on her. But to put it mildly, on the painting boat, the fragrant wind is wafting, the piano is melodious, and the talented woman of Yangzhou is really a must in the world. ”

Xu Jingchang was even more angry, "I asked you what you eat and watch, how do you just talk about beauty?" Vulgar one! ”

Wu Shan said helplessly: "My lord, I don't hide it, I haven't had time to see anything else." If you don't lead your subordinates a few more times, you probably will know. ”

Xu Jingchang said helplessly: "Okay, you prepare the car, let's go to the Longtan Tiger's Den today, and we will be demons and monsters for a while." ”

Wu Shan said hehehe: "The adult is talking about a female monster, a female demon, right?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, hurry up and do it."

Wu Shan agreed, went down immediately, and when the sun turned west, the two of them got into a carriage, came out of the Yamen of the General Administration, and came to the Qinhuai River.

Xu Jingchang was curious all the way, and looked outside, there were people coming and going on the road, and there was still some vitality, the Jingjing tribulation had just ended, and it was already very good to be able to recover like this.

"I said Lao Wu, the current Qin Huai, how is the character?"

Wu Shan secretly said in his heart, aren't you also cheesy.

"These days, we have tracked down the rebels against the party, and many girls and ladies from official eunuchs have been demoted to happy members and have a cheap job. If you guess correctly, it is naturally much stronger than in the past. ”

Xu Jingchang was slightly moved, he was also following the customs, but he was not degenerate and bad.

Xungui's son, the capital is gentle, if there is no romance, maybe people still suspect that they have two hearts!

You pretend to be Mr. Taoist, who are you showing it to?

Do you want to learn from Wang Mang?

By the way, it seems that Wang Mang's aunt is also a queen, and she is in a similar situation to herself.

Thinking of this, Xu Jingchang is even more confident, even if it is for the Xu family, we have to come to Qinhuai from time to time to consume and stimulate domestic demand.

He kept thinking all the way, and seeing that it was not far from Qin Huai, suddenly Xu Jingchang found something wrong, "Old Wu, this car is not what I usually sit in, right?" ”

Wu Shan hurriedly said: "This is the car of the lower official, and the adult's car carries the sign of the General Administration, which is inconvenient." ”

"No, it stands to reason that my car should be better than yours, but I sat all the way, your car didn't bump at all, and my car, sitting in the palace, was still bumpy...... Lao Wu, you tell me the truth, do you keep the good for yourself? ”

Wu Shan was wronged, "My lord, your car is naturally the best in the General Administration, and the lower official specially added two layers of wolf skin to you...... Let's see that we are here, it is important to enjoy the scenery quickly, the carriage is just a small thing. ”

"Nope." Xu Jingchang also lost his temper, "With my identity, I don't even have a good carriage, what does it look like?" It looks like the Xu Mansion is a poor ghost, and I have to figure out what's going on. ”

Xu Jingchang jumped down from the carriage, and Wu Shan could only follow, "My lord, don't compete, seeing that the sky is dark, when you have a thousand dollars, aren't you wasting money?" ”

Xu Jingchang ignored him, circled the carriage twice, and then he looked at the road under his feet, which was paved with bluestone and neat. Looking back and forth, it's all the same.

"I said Lao Wu, how can this road to Qinhuai be better than the Heavenly Street in front of the palace?"

Wu Shan shook his head and said: "No, the entire Yingtian City is built by the Ministry of Industry, and the best materials are used around the palace." ”

Xu Jingchang frowned slightly, "Old Wu, let's go to the restaurant next to us, find a seat, and stare at the street with me." ”

When Wu Shan heard this, his eyes almost fell, "My lord, you have arrived on the bank of the Qinhuai River, you don't go inside, find a teahouse here, you, what do you mean?" Aren't you afraid of being spanked by the elders in the family? ”

"You fart, who in the Xu family dares to care about me now?" Xu Jingchang said impatiently: "If you want to do it, you will do it, don't give me nonsense." ”

Then Xu Jingchang took Wu Shan, leaned on the side of the street, found a three-story teahouse, and picked a seat near the window, and the two asked for a pot of bird's tongue.

"Guest officer, this tea is good, it was picked by the yellow flower girl in the morning, and each piece was contained under the tongue, so it is called a bird's tongue, one or two silver and one or two tea, and the score is exactly the same."

Wu Shan is about to cry, I don't want to drink anything that the yellow flower girl contains, I just want to meet the big girl herself......

Xu Jingchang didn't care about him, but stared at the road through the crack in the window.

"Look, is that a carriage from the Ministry of War?"

Wu Shan leaned over, glanced at it, and nodded: "It's from the military department, and other yamen don't have such a divine horse." Or are they bold enough to dare to use the car of the military department directly, and the subordinate should learn from them. ”

Xu Jingchang gave him a big roll of the eyes, and continued to look down, not half an hour, the carriages and sedan chairs that passed one after another, there were twenty or thirty, and they came out of it, although no one was wearing official uniforms, but they were also official.

The entourage around him is also arrogant and looks at people with their nostrils.

Wu Shan leaned out and identified them one by one, he had been in Beijing for many years, and he could basically recognize him.

"The Ministry of Households, the Criminal Department, the Ministry of Rites, the Inspectorate, the Ministry of Industry, the Hanlin Academy, and the Guozijian!"

Xu Jingchang slapped the table angrily, "The last dynasty is not so neat, I said that the road to Qinhuai is better than Heavenly Street!" It turns out that the problem is here. ”

Wu Shan also said stupidly: "My lord, why can't the lower officials understand?" ”

"You pig's head, the court meeting is only once every three days, but people come here every day on this road, in case it bumps and throws the adults, it will be a great crime."

Wu Shan was dumbfounded, what else did he say?

"Why doesn't Xia Guan know?"

Xu Jingchang looked at him, "Are you from a Jinshi?" ”

"It's not."

"Do you have any money in your family?"

"Nope."

"Do you have the power in your hands?"

"Before the adults came, the General Administration Department was not so majestic, and the lower officials were just senators, which was nothing."

"That's right, people don't play with you!" Xu Jingchang snorted.

Wu Shan suddenly realized, and said through gritted teeth: "It's all a bunch of snobs, but after following the adults, there will be some play in the future." Let's hurry over now, or so many officials will come and snatch all the good ones. ”

Xu Jingchang squinted his eyes, looked at the crowded street, and hummed: "Have you forgotten my motto?" ”

Wu Shan subconsciously said: "If you are poor, you will hold a grudge, and if you are good, you will counterattack." What are you going to do, my lord? ”

"If you don't do anything, if they dare to sue me, I will dare to lift their comfort zone!"

Xu Jingchang gritted his teeth, he didn't have the heart to listen to music now, so he hurried back to the mansion, called Xu Yi over, told him a few words, and asked him to investigate.

Another day passed, and Xu Jingchang had two more stones in his hand.

"Childe, you really guessed it, the stones on Qinhuai Road are better."

Xu Jingchang nodded, "Okay, you wrap these two stones, and I will put them under the general secretary and send them to Your Majesty." ”
