Twilight.

After dinner, the empress stood at the door of the Fenglin Hall again.

Shangguan Xuanran, who had been standing with him for a day, didn't finally know what the empress was waiting for until he saw the figure in the air.

At this time.

It happened that Li Yunsheng passed through the sky and passed over the palace.

The two people, one in the sky and the other underground, glanced at each other and looked at each other without saying a word.

The empress, who had been waiting for a day, snorted lightly after seeing Li Yunsheng, turned around and returned to the main hall.

In the air, Li Yunsheng glanced at the empress in front of the main hall, and felt a little proud in his heart.

If you don't let me enter the palace, I'll take the sky.

Passing by in the sky, this can't be regarded as entering the palace.

Shangguan Xuanran: (⊙o⊙)...

One obviously went to Weidi and didn't pass by the palace, so he deliberately passed by here.

The other one, obviously waited here for a day, but when they met, they took up the empress's shelf, as if they didn't wait here.

These two people are really incomprehensible and incomprehensible......

……

Du Fu.

Gao Shun walked into the house, as if he was going back to his own home.

"Where's your master?"

The butler was already familiar with this high-ranking servant who came to the house from time to time to drink and drink.

"My hometown is in the house."

"Haven't you eaten yet?"

The housekeeper smiled helplessly, why bother asking.

"Didn't the high servant shoot just pinching the hour?"

Gao Shun has come more often, so he naturally knows when Du Wenru usually has dinner.

"Come inside, please." The butler led the way, "I'll go and tell the master." ”

in the house.

As soon as Du Wenru sat down, he saw the housekeeper walk in quickly.

"Master, the servant is here."

Du Wenru looked at the dishes on his table, and then at the pot of wine on the table.

"Go, take out my treasure of white dew."

The housekeeper raised his eyelids, but the jar of wine was his master's treasure, and he was reluctant to drink it.

Unexpectedly, I was willing to take it out today.

"I'll go."

Gao Shun walked into the room, and he didn't need Du Wenru to be polite, he sat down directly.

At the same time, he turned his head to the maid beside him and commanded.

"Go, bring another pair of dishes and chopsticks."

The maid glanced at Du Wenru and saw Du Wenru nodding, so she turned around and left.

"Since you resigned, if you don't pack up your things and leave Beijing, do you still have time to come to me for dinner?"

"Huh!"

Gao Shun raised his hand and interrupted Du Wenru's words.

"First of all, I'm not here to eat."

"And what are you going to do?"

"Collect the bills."

"Debt collection?" Du Wenru was confused, "What do I owe you?" ”

Gao Shun stretched out an index finger.

"A jar of white dew wine that has been treasured for more than ten years."

"Haha......"

Du Wenru laughed, he knew that Gao Shun was here for the jar of wine.

At the beginning, the two made a bet.

If the world is unified, will Li Xiang attack them because of the rectification of the rule of officials.

Although Li Xiang was crowned king, it was obvious that if it weren't for their voluntary resignation, Li Xiang and the empress would not have any intention of doing anything to him.

Therefore, he lost this gamble convincingly.

"Aren't you curious, why did I resign?"

"Your Du Wenru's thoughts can't be seen through by others, but I can see through them."

Gao Shun did not point it out, but he resigned together in the court, and he was already advancing and retreating with Du Wenru.

Du Wenru sighed with some emotion, to have such a confidant in his life, he should be a big dealer.

"Although you won, this jar of wine can be regarded as a meal for you."

Gao Shun corrected.

"Feed us."

As soon as the words fell, Cui Yan walked in with the jar of white dew wine.

"Since it's a canton, it should also be counted as me."

The housekeeper was on the side, looking helpless.

"Sir, this-"

Taking wine was supposed to be done by him, but he couldn't stand it and was robbed by Cui Shangshu halfway.

It's rare to be lively, Du Wenru commanded.

"It's okay, go and get a pair of chopsticks for Cui Shangshu."

At this time, a person outside the house said in a loud voice.

"Please take an extra pair."

"Two pairs!"

"Three mates!"

"Four!"

"Five!"

Before you see him, you hear his voice first.

After a while, the other five Shangshu of Shangshu Province walked in one after another.

Hubu Shangshulou smelled the white dew wine that had been opened, and the aroma of the wine penetrated into his nose, making him intoxicated.

"Good wine!"

Du Wenru looked left and right.

"What are you?"

Several people said in unison.

"Wine!"

"This wine is a practice wine."

Lou Jing raised his chin slightly: "What I drink is candied wine!" ”

The other four nodded in agreement: "Yes! ”

Although the five of them did not resign in the early dynasty, they had already submitted their resignations afterwards.

Therefore, this candied wine is naturally drunk.

In a few moments, a table was full.

Fortunately, Du Wenru is usually used to extravagance, even if he eats alone, it is a large table of wine and food.

Therefore, even if the former left and right servants of Shangshu Province and the first six Shangshu are all gathered, it will not be without wine and food.

Gao Shun explained with a smile.

"They were all invited by me, and since I won, then this jar of white dew wine will naturally belong to me.

On the occasion of parting, it is just time to borrow your mansion for a treat. ”

Cui Yan personally poured wine for everyone, and the housekeeper on the side couldn't intervene at all.

"Lao Du, you are not authentic, you even asked for your resignation alone, and you didn't say a word to us."

Du Wenru smiled, although he hoped that everyone would follow him to resign, but it was not easy to speak.

In case he said it explicitly, and the words reached the ears of the King of Jin, he would feel better.

"I didn't say anything, and you dare to follow me to resign?"

Gao Shun was also a little curious about this, and Cui Yan reacted faster than him that morning.

Cui Yan's face was proud, all thanks to the fact that he had a good wife.

"If you can see it, I can see it too."

Du Wenru looked puzzled, he didn't know what he saw?

Seeing him like this, Cui Yan muttered a little in his heart.

"This is the empress's test for us, just to see if we are loyal to Li Xiang, aren't you resigning because of this?"

Du Wenru and Gao Shun glanced at each other: Can it still be like this?

Two people speak in unison.

"You're right!"

The other five were all shocked, but they all echoed it.

"You're right!"

Their motivations are different, but they do so in the same way – to resign.

Only the military department Shangshu Shi Chongxin really has no motive, and he simply follows the crowd.

Du Wenru didn't say anything more and picked up his wine glass.

"This first glass of wine, to King Jin!"

……

Dongdu Road, Qi Wangfu.

King Qi turned another page of the book in his hand.

"Mama Yue, do you say that being the emperor is tired?"

On the side, an old woman said softly.

"That's not something we should worry about."

King Qi did not raise it, but his tone was very serious.

"However, the Taoist priest of Jingming Mountain said that I have the appearance of an emperor."

Mama Yue was silent.

"You can't talk nonsense!"

King Qi looked up.

"I didn't say nonsense, didn't Mama Yue say that he was extremely accurate in his fortune telling?"
