The night slowly climbed up, and in the Taishan County Mansion, there was a scene of harmony. The servant boy in Tsing Yi was full of smiles, greeting the guests who came to the door, his arms had already been filled with invitations and broken silver, and a section of invitations was revealed in the placket, with a dashing and eye-catching pen and ink on it, and an acacia flower jumped on the paper, and the small words next to it were also outstanding, faintly magnificent. This, naturally, comes from Dr. Zu's handwriting.

With the sound of singing, the well-dressed and decently dressed officials and gentlemen stepped into the mansion of Taishan County one after another.

"Dr. Zu first came to Mount Tai, but there is a situation of feng shui discomfort, the small people in Mount Tai are poor, if there is a place that is not well taken care of, you tell me directly, I will definitely handle it......"

The former Taishan County Cheng put down the shelf and pulled the Tsing Yi guy to have a cordial and friendly conversation, and often inquired about the situation of which court nobles were in the palace.

The little guy in Tsing Yi got the money he forced over, and it was really bad not to give it to him at all, so he had to smile and say: "Everything is fine with my master, I have rested for the past two days, my spirit is much better, and there is nothing missing in the mansion......"

"That'...... Doctor Zu is an old man, what does he like to eat, drink, what kind of things does he like?" Juncheng is still not discouraged.

"Yes, a few days ago, my master said that he wanted to eat fresh yellow croaker, but look at it, where can I buy this thing in Taishan County now......?"

Jun Cheng immediately said: "Hahahaha...... Yellow croaker!?, I can't imagine that Dr. Zu from Hebei actually likes this fresh seafood, you didn't say earlier, we Shandong by the sea, not to mention one or two yellow croaker, even the kun has also been seen! Hold on...... A few days later, I ordered someone to bring fresh seafood and ask Dr. Zu to try it! ”

The county called his servant over, and after a few words, the servant left in a hurry. Obviously, it was Jun Cheng who told him to find a way to get fresh seafood.

Then, there were more and more people, more and more people were invited to the middle hall to take a seat, and the servants and maids shuttled back and forth with fruits and vegetables, and the scene gradually became lively.

"This, when will Doctor Zu come to see me?" An impatient officer grabbed the butler's sleeve and asked.

"Don't worry, my master is freshening up, and when he finishes tidying up, he will come out to entertain you, everyone, ......wait a minute," the butler said humbly and reasonably.

These officials treated him differently than other slaves, but they inquired, this time Doctor Zu came to Shandong, and did not bring many entourages, those little maids who served tea and poured water were all left by the original King Zhao Jun, let alone borrowed, then the few people brought by Doctor Zu naturally cannot be compared with them, this is Doctor Zu's henchmen, and it is naturally worth putting down his body and making friends.

While the protagonist is not yet on the scene, the guests have a certain degree of autonomy.

The banquet is a natural social place, the protagonist has not yet appeared, and they don't have to be afraid of being noisy, at this moment they are naturally looking for a good acquaintance among the crowd to talk, and the scene is lively for a while.

However, with a chant, "His Royal Highness King Zhao has arrived!" "The noisy atmosphere was like a sudden brake, silent. Gao Rui stepped in in with a black face in his regular clothes, and unceremoniously found a table at the forefront and sat down.

looked at everyone, frowned slightly, and said, "The old man is just here to have a good time, you don't have to pay attention to the old man, just do ......"

That being said, who would dare to take it upon themselves? King Zhao Jun is obviously in a bad mood, if he has a lively and lively chat in person, he can't cause anger?

Someone secretly slandered that this old prince didn't seem to be here to join in the fun, as if he was here to smash the field......

In the back office, Shi Shiran, who had packed up, went to the main hall and glanced at the housekeeper beside him: "Have all the people arrived?"

"Back to the master, all the officials of Taishan County have arrived, and His Royal Highness the King of Zhao County has also arrived......

"He's actually here too......" Zu Ting was a little depressed. The housekeeper paused for a moment, and asked cautiously: "Isn't this invitation to His Royal Highness King Zhaojun written by you yourself?"

Zu Ting rolled his eyes and said, "It's right that I invited him, but it was just a polite gesture, I didn't want him to really come, he was coming, and he would definitely give the old man a stinky face for a night!" This King Zhao Jun is really ...... Whether the old man really invited him or not, he didn't have a little ...... in his heart Count? ”

"Forget it, it's all here...... Let's entertain them together! ”

In the main hall, Wang Gao Rui of Zhaojun took a sip of wine, squinted his eyes and glanced at the officials of Taishan County, okay, seventy or eighty people, there are a lot, all of them are here!

[These mediocre officials, who don't do things well, but come here to drink and have fun, are really not ...... sons of people! ] He slammed his glass on the table, causing the officials sitting next to him to tremble.

"Ming Gong, this is a banquet, don't make the atmosphere so stiff......" Liang Jingxing admonished with a smile and tears.

Gao Rui snorted from his nostrils, glanced at everyone, all the officials he saw lowered their heads in fear, not daring to look at him, Gao Rui pointed at these people, and said disdainfully: "Look, look at these people, where are the local officials?" All of them are like fattened pig ......! ”

Liang Jingxing's cheeks twitched twice, and he showed a decent smile to everyone. Gao Rui is nearly half a hundred years old, has a good temper, and has always been more upright, as long as he is reasonable, Zhao Yanshen doesn't give much face. Not to mention these small officials who are like miscellaneous insects in his eyes. But it's very offensive! Every time, Liang Jingxing came out to play a round.

"Ming Gong ......! Doctor Zu is coming soon, don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, you have to save some face for Doctor Zu, right......?" Liang Jingxing was really about to collapse, afraid that something would come out of Gao Rui's mouth to offend people!

Gao Rui still snorted angrily, "What face does he want?" But he finally listened, and then he only drank and didn't speak, and the officials around him were relieved.

Next, Zu Ting appeared, everyone only saw a thin old man with a layer of misty eyes coming out, although Gao Rui was thin, but the skeleton was thick, and he looked like he had a majestic spirit, but this Zu Doctor was different, with a kind and kind smile, as soon as he appeared, he first greeted: "Let you wait for a long time, ashamed to be ......ashamed."

"His Royal Highness King Zhao Jun is also here, it's really an honor for me......"

Gao Rui snorted lightly, even if he said hello, Zu Ting didn't feel embarrassed and couldn't get off the stage at all, but said with a smile: "Everyone is gathered together today, and the humble house is shining!" The old man does it first for respect! As he spoke, he raised his glass and drank it down.

The eyes of the officials present lit up, and from the feeling point of view, this Doctor Zu should be the same as them, a fellow believer!

At that time, I was relieved a lot, and I raised my glass to accompany them.

After drinking, Zu Ting said: "These days, the situation in Mount Tai is very critical, and the local government affairs depend on you, and it is your concerted efforts to make Taishan County as stable as Mount Tai!" The old man toasts you again! After saying that, another glass of wine fell into the stomach.

The only one who didn't raise a glass was Gao Rui, he was now full of black lines, and he scolded Zu Ting in his heart for being blind?! It's all the credit of Gao Rui that this Taishan County can last so long, what does it have to do with this group of waste? By the way, he was indeed blind......

Gao Rui suppressed the anger in his heart, and felt that since Zu Ting came to uproot these people this time, there must be some turning point in the future, so he still endured it and waited to see Zu Ting's performance......

But he was disappointed, because Zu Ting did not have any "throwing the cup for the number" from beginning to end, and the atmosphere of the banquet has always been very harmonious.

He thought that Zu Ting had changed his mind again, maybe Zu Ting listened to his words, maybe he didn't want to make such a big move? Then Zu Ting will definitely warn or mention something, right? But Zu Ting didn't.

I don't agree to suppress my temperament After reading Zu Ting's compliments from everyone, I suppressed my temperament and looked at Zu Ting very humbly, and then I heard Zu Ting say: "These days, the grain and grass in Taishan County are really very nervous......

Everyone present pricked up their ears, and Gao Ruixin said, "It's finally here!" ”

None of the people present were stupid, and immediately there were a few high-ranking statements: "How much food is Dr. Zu missing?" We can watch fill in! ”

"Yes, yes, this disaster relief, the imperial court has spent too much, and I have to use troops against the pseudo-Zhou, I'm afraid it's already stretched, I'm waiting for me as a great Qi minister, how can I turn a blind eye to His Majesty's predicament? The ministers and other clans can make up 300,000 stones of grain and grass to solve the urgent needs of the imperial court! ”

A wealthy middle-aged man with a lot of prestige among the officials of Taishan County stood up, and then a large number of guys followed him to stand up and show his loyalty. They all said that all of them could jointly raise these grains, and the people who watched it burst into tears, and at that moment Gao Rui even had the illusion that these people were not corrupt officials, but loyal ministers and righteous men of the imperial court.

He felt that the matter had finally been successfully resolved, and looked at Zu Ting, hoping that Zu Ting could agree.

Zu Ting also looked deeply moved, pressed his hands down, and said, "You are not like this, the imperial court is not in danger to this extent...... The old man told you in advance that the imperial court has mobilized nearly one million stones of grain and grass from the plains and Qingzhou to help Shandong! ”

Everyone was in an uproar, nearly a million stone grains and grass?! With these grains, the Shandong crisis can definitely be solved! No wonder Dr. Zu swaggered to sleep as soon as he came, it turned out that he didn't panic when he had food in hand! Gao Rui also opened his mouth wide in astonishment, didn't Zu Ting say that the food was only enough for half a month?

He just wanted to confirm with Zu Rui, but he saw Zu Ting's eyes sweeping over, and he shook his head at Gao Rui imperceptibly, Liang Jingxing secretly pressed Gao Rui's knee, and his lips buzzed: "Ming Gong can't ......"

Zu Ting continued: "...... Your loyalty to the court, the old man has seen it now! …… The day after tomorrow, the grain and grass will be complete, and next, please work together to provide disaster relief! When the matter is completed, the old man will play His Majesty, and everyone can make a note in the credit book! ”

Gao Rui's mind is like a gong and three drums at the moment, and the whole thing is about to explode, this ancestor is ...... What the hell are you doing? ……

Everyone was very happy, no one noticed Gao Rui sitting in the front row, in their opinion, King Zhao Jun did not speak the whole time, that is, he was acquiescing that Zu Ting had leadership over him.

Compared with Gao Rui, who regarded them as cockroaches, they were more willing to follow this amiable Doctor Zu who could also take them to get promoted and make a fortune together.

So Gao Rui was completely ignored by them. After another joke and touting, the goatee master appeared and said to Zu Ting: "I heard that Dr. Zu came to Taishan County alone? Oh, this can't be done, Dr. Zu is busy with official business, how can he do it without a pillow person who knows the warmth and cold? In the next place, you can send Dr. Zu a ...... Talk about your heart, talk about your heart......"

A hint of excitement obviously flashed in Zu Ting's eyes, and after thinking about it for a moment, he still said, "Oh, I'm afraid this is not very good...... The old man came to Shandong to solve problems for His Majesty, how could he enjoy it? Besides, if you give me a girl in the prime of life, the old man will not be impeached when he returns to the court, and in recent months, the court has been very strict in grasping discipline......

"Eh, this Doctor Zu doesn't have to worry......" The goatee master's voice carried a temptation, "This is a widow, Zhang...... This year, he is round and jade, white and beautiful, and gentle and lovely, and he is definitely a caring person who knows cold and hot in the room......"

"Besides, if you marry the doctor, and she is widowed and unmarried, if you marry him, it will definitely be her blessing...... This kind of thing, even if there are villains in the court who want to attack you with this, they will never be able to find a mistake......"

Zu Ting was obviously moved, and after thinking about it in a fake way, he finally readily agreed. Gao Rui finally seemed to be unable to listen to it, waved his sleeves and got up, and snorted: "The black smoke miasma ......!" The old man is unwell, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time! Ladies and gentlemen...... Please! ”

After speaking, he strode away, and Liang Jingxing bowed to everyone and said, "I'll go see Your Highness......"

There was silence in the hall for a while, Zu Ting "snorted", picked up the wine glass, it seemed that Zhao Junwang's behavior could not affect his drinking mood at all, and said: "Since Zhao Junwang doesn't give the old man face, let's ignore him, let's drink our own, gentlemen, please!" The hall began to hear again.

"Ming Gong, Ming Gong wait for me!" Gao Rui strode out of the gate of the mansion, and Liang Jingxing ran panting from behind, "Ming Gong, you can dissipate your breath......"

At this time, Gao Rui's face was so angry, his face was calm, and he said, "I'm not angry......"

"......" Liang Jingxing looked at Gao Rui, and indeed did not react angrily at all, and his heart was suddenly surprised.

Gao Rui seemed to see through his thoughts, and said lightly: "Those fools, the butcher knife is about to be put on the neck and you don't know it, but you obediently stretch your neck over...... Oh, let's watch the show! ”

Gao Rui looked back and took a deep look inside, and a gentle wind blew through the door of the mansion, and the two lanterns swayed in the wind, getting weaker and weaker......
