Chapter 51: People's hearts begin to move, Chu Yulou! [Ask for collection, ask for reading]
After the next court, the courtiers walked towards the palace gate in twos and threes.
Imperial Doctor Chu Ziwen was walking when he suddenly heard someone behind him calling his name.
"Lord Chu, Lord Chu, wait for the next official!"
Chu Ziwen looked back, but it was Gao Zhan, the right attendant of the military department, and his eyebrows immediately wrinkled slightly.
This Gao Zhan is a tall adult, but he ran before and after running with Huang Jingming, and his flattering appearance really made people feel bad.
And he, together with Fan Yizhou, the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials, and Zhou Rui, the left attendant of the Household Department, were privately nicknamed the "Three Wolves of the Yellow Gate" by a group of courtiers.
Well, the squire is also a wolf.
Holding back the unhappiness in his heart, Chu Ziwen asked in a flat tone:
"I don't know what Master Gao has to say when he calls this official?"
Gao Zhan wiped the beads of sweat on his head, took a breath, and said with a smile:
"Lord Chu laughed, Xiaguan called the adult, just wanted to ask the adult, you have time tonight, Xiaguan set up a good banquet in Chu Yulou, specially to invite Lord Chu."
Chu Ziwen's heart became more and more unhappy, he flicked his sleeve robe, and snorted coldly:
"Master Gao laughed, didn't he hear that those who were different would not conspire with each other. The official doesn't think there is anything to talk about with Lord Gao, this banquet, let's keep it and eat it slowly! ”
After that, he turned around and wanted to leave, but he was unexpectedly pulled by Gao Zhan's sleeve.
"What do you mean, Lord Gao?"
Chu Ziwen narrowed his eyes, and there was gradually a trace of impatience in his tone.
"Lord Chu misunderstood."
Gao Zhan hurriedly confessed, then looked around, and saw that no one paid attention to the two of them, so he lowered his voice and said:
"The lower official invited the adults to the banquet, just to talk to the adults about His Majesty."
Seeing Chu Ziwen looking at him suspiciously, Gao Zhan knew that if he didn't reveal some details, he might not be able to trust the other party, so he had to whisper:
"Your Excellency, rest assured, this move by the lower officials is not at the behest of Lord Jin Wuhuang."
Chu Ziwen's eyes suddenly narrowed.
Since Huang Wenbo was named the Marquis of De'an by His Majesty and promoted to the commander of the front division of the palace, he stepped down from the position of Jinwu, and almost no one was commensurate with Huang Wenbo in this position.
Interesting......
Looking at the other party's somewhat eager eyes, Chu Ziwen only hesitated slightly, and then agreed.
"Master Gao is so enthusiastic, if the official doesn't accept it again, it seems that the official is a little ignorant. Anyway, Master Gao said that the time would come, and the official would definitely go to the banquet at that time. ”
Seeing that Chu Ziwen finally relented, a big stone in Gao Zhan's heart fell, and he arched his hand:
"In this way, the lower officials will wait for your arrival in Chu Yulou."
…………
At sunset.
After explaining the scriptures to Zhao Yu, Wang Pu rode back to the mansion.
"Sir, someone threw two letters at the concierge today."
The old housekeeper welcomed Wang Pu into the house before mentioning the matter.
"Two letters? Any idea who sent it? ”
"I asked the porter, and said that the letter had been sent by a ranger, but he did not know who had asked him to deliver it; The other letter was sent by Mr. Wu Yizhi. ”
"Heh, when has my Wang Wenbo's small courtyard ever been so lively? Bring it and let me see. ”
Wang Pu's eyes suddenly showed an interested look.
The housekeeper seemed to know that Wang Pu would say this, and took out two unopened letterheads from his sleeve and handed them to Wang Pu.
Wang Pu opened the envelope one by one and looked at it, and after looking at it, the corners of his mouth hooked up a complicated smile.
"Go, follow me into the study. I have something important for you to do. ”
In the study.
Wang Pufen wrote a letter quickly.
He put the letter in an envelope, sealed it with fire paint, and then handed it to the butler, who was standing aside, and commanded:
"Don't come forward in person, secretly send a capable person to Zhang Du's commanding envoy's mansion, and find a way to deliver this letter to him."
This housekeeper came from Wang Pu's hometown, and immediately understood what he meant, nodded and said:
"Don't worry, sir, I'll do it."
After that, he gave a salute to Wang Pu and went out of the study to arrange for people.
Wang Pu sat at the desk, his right index finger gently tapped on the table, and he began to think about it in his heart.
Wang Xiongdan, this kid's head is quite smart, he entered Shenjing City and entered the Praetorian Guard, and he knew that he wanted to contact me. However, I'm about to switch to the side of the Taihe King, and it's best not to let others know about the relationship between the two of us. I have already explained this matter in my letter, and Commander Zhang should be able to arrange it properly.
The most troublesome thing at the moment is Wu Yizhi......
Thinking of this, Wang Pu couldn't help but flick the invitation card with Wu Yizhi's name written on it in his hand.
On the invitation, Chu Yulou's three gilded characters shone in the candlelight.
There is no good feast in this feast!
Wang Pu sighed, walked out of the study, summoned the maid, and began to prepare for today's banquet.
If the drunken gold building is the most high-end gold cave, and the singers and dancers and singers in it are the first class in the entire Shenjing City, then Chu Yulou's food can be said to be almost impossible to pick out opponents in the Shenjing City.
The dignitaries entertained distinguished guests, and the subconscious choice was Chu Yulou.
The ordinary people of Shenjing, if they can go into the Chu Yu Mansion to have a meal, they can blow in front of their neighbors, relatives and friends for three or five months.
"Lord Chu can appreciate the light, it is really an honor for the lower officials."
In a box on the third floor of Chu Yulou, looking at Chu Ziwen who was brought in by the little servant, Gao Zhan suddenly had layers of smiles on his face.
Chu Ziwen's eyes swept over the entire box, and seeing that there were only two people, Gao Zhan, and no third person, he suddenly had a faint understanding in his heart, and said with a smile:
"The wine and delicacies of this Chu Yulou are famous in the entire Shenjing City. Even if it is this official, it feels quite painful to eat a meal here. Today, there is a big man to treat him, and the official can have a full meal without spending a penny, how can he not come? ”
With that, the two looked at each other and laughed.
Just as the two were gossiping, one dish after another was brought to the table by the little guys.
"Lord Chu, please."
When the meal was served, Gao Zhan raised the wine in his glass and said with a smile.
"Tall man, please."
Chu Ziwen also raised a glass in return.
The two drank all the wine in their glasses and smiled at each other.
"Lord Chu, try the authentic Fish Leaping Dragon Gate of Chu Yulou. This carp is a golden carp caught from the Canglong River, the meat is tender and delicious, and it is an excellent ingredient. ”
"Then the official will be insensitive."
Chu Ziwen said as he used the jade chopsticks in his hand to gently pinch a piece of fish meat from the middle of the fish leaping dragon gate, put it in his mouth and savored it.
"This chef of Chu Yulou is really good! This dish is a must! Tall man, you can taste it too. ”
"Then the subordinate is better to be respectful."
Half an hour later, the two of them, who were full of wine and food, finally got to the point.
"I don't know what Lord Gao wants to invite this official at a great cost, what does it mean?"
Chu Ziwen took a sip of cold wine and asked casually.
Gao Zhan laughed and said:
"What if Xia Guan said that Xia Guan was ordered by that Lord Huang? Don't hide it, in addition to the official banquet today, Lord Huang and Lord Wu are also banqueting Lord Wang Pu in this Chu Yulou. ”
"You ......"
Chu Ziwen was about to have a seizure, but found that Gao Zhan, who was sitting opposite, was constantly glancing at him, and most of the doubts in his heart disappeared in an instant, so he pretended to sneer and said:
"Master Gao is playing hard!"
That being said, his eyes were aimed at the other man's right hand.
I saw Gao Zhan dip a little vegetable soup in the dish with his right hand, and then quickly wrote on the table.
What caught Chu Ziwen's eyes was the two looming big characters of [Loyal Emperor].
I see!
Seeing these two words, the only doubts left in Chu Ziwen's heart were instantly swept away.
