Volume 2 The Fire of Chang'an Chapter 92 The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves
"It is true that I am not qualified to supervise the high-ranking officials, but now that the national crisis is at hand and the plague is rampant, you are here to spend a thousand taels ...... I'm a person, I have a little bit of noble morality, and my mouth is not tight enough, even if I meet the emperor, I can say it. Lin Xiaofeng glanced at the several officials in front of him and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, do you understand the meaning of my words?" β
Everyone in the world knows that His Majesty the Emperor attaches great importance to literature and light on martial arts, and attaches great importance to the education of the prince, so he does not hesitate to invite Confucian scholars to enter Beijing as teachers.
The crown prince and the prince, what he said in front of the emperor, it definitely has weight.
Several officials were so frightened that they quickly knelt down, especially Lord Liu, the servant of the ministry, kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Mrs. Lin is cautious in his words and deeds, my rewards are all accumulated over the years, and I took out so much after drinking wine just now, and I regret it now when I think about it." β
Lin Xiaofeng sneered, "Oh? A few years of savings were thrown away because of a song and dance, a few adults, you say this, guess I believe it or not? β
"Master Taifu, I'm also waiting on a whim, you have a lot of them, just take it as a fart, tomorrow! I'll be sure to come to the door tomorrow to say thank you! β
"Yes, yes, Master Taifu has a lot, don't care about the lower official's loss of morality this time."
The officials crushed people to death, and several officials all kowtowed and admitted their mistakes.
"That's it," Lin Xiaofeng waved his hand and said, "There is no need to come to the door to thank you, since you have a deep family background, I don't think it is better to do this, each person will take three thousand taels of silver to donate, which can be regarded as a modest contribution to the epidemic in the northwest." Luckily? β
"Good, good...... We'll donate when we go back, and we'll donate ...... when we go back."
Several officials agreed again and again, and each of them retired, fleeing from the Cloud Pavilion.
"Mrs. Lin, when Lao Yu was the emperor's teacher, he didn't have a big shelf like you, and you asked each person to donate three thousand taels, so can you ask Lao Yu to take it too?" Qin Taishi's voice was deliberately sharp.
Lin Xiaofeng waved his hand again and said with a smile: "Where am I qualified to ask the Taishi to donate as well?" Taishi, you are old, keep that little bit of silver, and take care of your old age at home. β
"Humph! Young people are fearless! β
"It is the back waves of the Yangtze River that push the front waves, and the front waves slap the back waves to death on the beach."
"Okay, a good one who slapped Hou Lang to death on the beach, then Mrs. Lin, the old man warns you, it is not easy to be a Beijing official, you have to be more careful in the court in the future."
Qin Taishi snorted lightly, flicked his sleeves, left a seemingly threatening warning, and walked out of the Cloud Pavilion with a few Confucian students.
The rest of the guests also smelled the gunpowder on both sides, and they didn't dare to stay longer, so they retreated from the Sky Pavilion one after another.
"Hmph, this old immortal thing, I curse you not to see the sun tomorrow." Yan Yunting pointed to the door and scolded.
is also of the older generation, Su Zhen sacrificed his life to resist evil spirits, but these officials drank and talked happily in the capital, and it was clear who was a hero and who was a bear.
"What are you doing in a daze, then the music, and then the dance." Lin Xiaofeng instructed the ladies on the stage, picked up the wine jug by himself, and poured wine into the cup.
Ning Ruowei held the picture scroll, and the two maidservants held the sword, walked over and handed it over, and said: "The two of you are noble and free, but we are lowly and humble, and we will have to beg for a life in Chang'an City in the future. β
"I haven't drunk this wine yet, why did you give an eviction order, big beauty, you are not doing the right business." Yan Yunting also sat down, picked up the wine glass and toasted with Lin Xiaofeng.
Ning Ruowei's voice grew colder, "Tonight's trouble has been caused enough, what do you want?" β
Yan Yunting pointed to the skylight on the roof and said, "Look, the night is already so deep, it's still raining heavily, and our clothes are still wet......
Ning Ruowei's voice was even colder, "Yunxiao Pavilion has never had a rule for staying overnight, and men are not allowed to stay overnight here. β
Yan Yunting waved his hand and smiled: "Oh, the rules are dead, people are alive, you just leave us to sleep for one night, and we don't want you to sleep." β
Ning Ruowei bit her lip and waved her hand at the women, all the maidservants, consuls, singing and dancing girls, and musicians in the Yunxiao Pavilion all walked to the table and surrounded Yan Yunting and Lin Xiaofeng, and they didn't speak, just glared at the two men.
This group of women, any one of them is stunning, surrounded by them, as long as it is a man, it will be throbbing.
"Harm! You women really can't stand the teasing, so I won't hide it from you, I came to Yunxiao Pavilion this time through a friend's introduction. Yan Yunting said, then took out the piece of "Peacock Order" and threw it to Ning Ruowei.
Ning Ruowei took the token and looked at it, hiding the shock in her eyes, and then asked, "Who gave you this token?" β
Yan Yunting said: "Qing Yan." β
"Peacock House never gives tokens to others, especially men...... What is your relationship with her? Ning Ruowei asked in a tight voice.
Yan Yunting said calmly: "How can I get this token, it's too troublesome to explain for a while...... As for my relationship with Qingyan, it's very simple, she is my lover. β
"Impossible!" Ning Ruowei vetoed: "How can Qingyan have a man she likes!" β
"Harm! Isn't love between men and women normal ethics? A good young man like me who is responsible, responsible, developing, and has a future, I can't hide it, she loves me so much," Yan Yunting smiled: "If you don't believe it, next time you see her, ask her in person." β
Ning Ruowei deducted a small dark grid at the tail of the Peacock Order, patted it, and sure enough, a note fell out, which read: "They are kind to the Peacock Tower, don't be lazy, Ouyang Bingyan stays." β
"Why can't even the ice geese ......?"
"Well, don't say anything, prepare two good guest rooms for us, boil two buckets of hot water, and prepare two decent clothes...... If you have the heart, it would be nice to arrange for each of us two girls to warm the bed. β
"How can this ruffian person be kind to our Peacock Tower......
"I think he's an unruly knight, you see, when he faced those officials just now, he didn't hesitate to ......."
"If we can serve Lin Gongzi to sleep, we will be lucky for three lives......"
A group of women, where can they not think of spring? Looking at these two men who were about to stay overnight in the Sky Pavilion, most of them were overjoyed.
"What are you talking about!" Ning Ruowei shouted, and all the ladies shut up. She wanted to say something again, and suddenlyβ
"Smack!"
The door was pushed open, and two maidservants were holding a dying woman, and the woman in green covered in blood rushed in:
"Pavilion Master! Pavilion Master! You have to think of a way, Sisi she's dying! β
Coincidentally, coincidentally, isn't this woman in green the female killer who ambushed them in the back alley?
Yan Yunting and Lin Xiaofeng looked at each other and smiled, things were really getting more and more interesting.
