On the second day, the Li Mansion Wing.

Pei Zheng woke up, and there was an indescribable feeling of comfort all over his body.

Maybe it's because of the idea of being rich and safe in his previous life, compared to the life of facing interception at any time and being mentally tense all day long, he prefers this kind of comfortable life of sleeping until he wakes up naturally.

Fortunately, the days of interception and killing came to an end, and then as long as he followed the footsteps of Wen Feng and Lin Xing, he could arrive in Chang'an safely under the protection of the Li family, and officially start his study career in the Academy of Performing Martial Arts.

With the identity of a student of the Academy of Martial Arts, Pei Zheng has the opportunity to be promoted to a knighthood, marry a princess, and go to the pinnacle of life.

It's a little exciting to think about.

However, as soon as the dream began, Lin Xing's rough voice came from outside the door: "Pei Zheng, have you woken up?"

The sweet dream was interrupted, and Pei Zheng replied weakly: "Wake up." ”

"Bang", Lin Xing didn't even say hello, pushed the door directly, and sat on the stool in the room.

Pei Zheng reacted very quickly, a carp stood up, and he slept in his clothes, he didn't even have to wear clothes, jumped out of bed, walked in front of Lin Xing barefoot, poured him a glass of water, and asked first: "The general came to look for a lowly post early in the morning, what is the matter?"

Lin Xing picked up the water cup, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a nonchalant face: "It's nothing, Lord Wen said that since you have arrived in Taiyuan City, you have to pay a visit to the Jinzhou Thorn History anyway, yesterday the Jinzhou Thorn History was not in the city, let you hand over a copy of the worship to the Thorn Shi Mansion today, and ask if someone has come back." ”

Visiting the Jinju Thorn History?Old Man Wen is planning to eat both black and white?

Pei Zheng had all kinds of speculations in his mind, and he didn't feel that it was wrong, if it weren't for the fact that Jinzhou Assassin Shi was not in the city yesterday, he should have followed Wen Feng and Lin Xing to live in the Assassin's Mansion now.

Wen Feng, as a high-ranking official such as the squire of the Ministry of Rites, visited the Jinzhou Assassin Shi as a feudal official, which is completely a normal relationship.

"Where's the sticker? ”

Lin Xing took out a hot gold letter from his arms and handed it to Pei Zheng: "Oh, take it, speak smartly, don't make jokes." ”

Pei Zheng took the sticker and said nonchalantly: "It's just a sticker, and you're not a fool with a low position, what kind of joke will you make?" The general will wait a minute, and he will go back when he goes to his humble position. ”

After saying this, Pei Zheng put on his shoes in twos and twos, walked out of the wing room and beckoned to the servants of the Li Mansion who were guarding outside the courtyard and said, "I am ordered by my lord to go to the Assassin Mansion to send a worship sticker, and I am bothered that your mansion will arrange for a person to lead the way." ”

Sending a letter is such a thing, how can it be less than a local snake to lead the way?

If there is no one from the Li Mansion to lead the way, let's not talk about whether Pei Zheng can find a place, and if he finds it, he may not be able to send it in.

Simple things, why make them too complicated and ask for trouble.

Lin Xing, who was still sitting in the wing, looked stunned when he heard the words, not to mention, this clever force is quite sufficient.

When the servant heard this, he bowed and said, "The subordinates must go out of the mansion with the permission of the housekeeper, the adults will wait a while, and the small ones will report to you." ”

A different color appeared on Pei Zheng's face, just from the polite and courteous performance of the servants of the Li Mansion, it can be seen that the Li family is indeed a top family.

After a while, Li He brought someone to Pei Zheng and asked, "But this little brother was ordered by Lord Wen to send a worship sticker to Lord Thorn Shi?"

Pei Zheng nodded slightly, and said calmly: "It's exactly below." ”

Li He said with a smile: "This kind of errand, why bother the little brother to run hard? The little brother can hand over the sticker to the people of the Li Mansion to do it for him, and ensure that he will not miss Lord Wen's affairs." ”

Listen, this is the confidence of the big family.

However, Pei Zheng just waved his hand and politely declined: "Steward Li's kindness has been grasped in my heart, and Lord Wen personally confessed to him, so I don't dare to fake it to others." ”

"However, when I arrived in Taiyuan City at the beginning of the next year, I was not familiar with the place, so I had to trouble Steward Li to arrange a person to lead the way. ”

Li He pretended to be displeased and said, "Little brother seems to be a little distrustful of the Li family?"

Tut-tut, a housekeeper of the Li Mansion knows how to use the power of the Li family to manipulate others, and it seems that he usually bullies others.

Pei Zheng coughed lightly and said: "It's not that I don't believe in the Li family, but this errand is within the next job, if you fake others, it will make my family angry, presumably Steward Li doesn't want to see me being swept away by my family and losing the mission, right?"

"It's like Steward Li, if it is a matter given by the eldest prince of your mansion, no matter how big or small, are you willing to let others fake it?"

When Li He heard this, a look of appreciation appeared on his face, and he no longer insisted on doing it for him, and said with a smile: "What the little brother said is reasonable, Yang Ge, you take this little brother to the Assassin Mansion." ”

Advancing and retreating freely, no wonder it can be illustrious for 400 years, and the Li family does have two brushes in cultivating domestic servants.

The Li family in Longyou is like this, and what is the situation of the Pei family in Hedong, which is even more famous?

Thinking of this, Pei Zheng couldn't help but have a headache with the obsession left by his predecessor, he was expelled from the Pei family when he was expelled from the Pei family, why did he have to be obsessed with returning to the Pei family to regain power?

Live well, isn't it good to have three wives and four concubines to inherit the lineage?

Pei Zheng sighed secretly, and said with a smile on his face: "Thank you, Steward Li." ”

......

At the gate of the Assassin's Mansion, Li He arranged for Yang Ge, a subordinate of the Li Mansion who led Pei Zheng, to stand there with his head held high, and said with a full sense of anger: "Yang Ge, the lackey of the Lower Li Mansion, dare to ask Lord Assassin Shi if he is in the mansion?"

Pei Zheng looked at Yang Ge, who called himself the lackey of the Li family and the honorable one, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up, look, this is professional.

The small door of the Assassin's Mansion opened, and a human head poked out: "My lord returned to the city last night, I don't know what happened to the Li Mansion looking for my lord?"

Yang Ge turned his head to look at Pei Zheng and said in a low voice: "This is the concierge of the Assassin's Mansion, if your lord has anything to say, let him convey it to the Assassin's Lord." ”

Concierge? Isn't it surnamed Qin?

Pei Zheng comprehended that he would move forward, took out the hot gold sticker and shook it in front of the porter: "This is the worship sticker that my family gave to Lord Thorn Shi, and I took the trouble to take me to meet Lord Thorn Shi and handed this worship sticker to him personally." ”

The porter thought it was the Li family's worship, so he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied: "Wait a minute, you two, wait for me to inform my family first." ”

Half an hour later, the porter returned: "My lord invites two messengers to enter the house, two messengers, please." ”

Yang Ge stretched out his hand to Pei Zheng and saluted, "My lord, please first." ”

Seeing this, the gatekeeper of the Assassin Mansion immediately looked at Pei just a few times, and he could be called an adult in the Li Mansion, and his status was probably not simple.

Pei Zheng smiled, didn't say anything, followed the porter all the way to the study, and saw the majestic-looking Jinzhou Thorn Shi Luo Ning.

"Humble Pei Zheng, meet Lord Assassin Shi. ”

Jinzhou Thorn Shi was in a high position, so he was naturally too lazy to deal with some subordinates, Luo Ning said bluntly: "Please bring it." ”

Pei Zheng held the hot gold sticker in both hands and handed it to the other party: "Please take a look." ”

Jinzhou Thorn Shi Luo Ning casually took the salute sticker and opened it, and after reading it at a glance, a look of surprise appeared on his face: "Wenfeng, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, invite this official to the Li Mansion for a banquet?"

For some reason, Pei Zheng heard Jinzhou Assassin Shi Luo Ning say the content of the post, and suddenly felt unsteady in his heart.

Not allowing him to think too much, Jinzhou Thorn Shi Luo Ning simply replied neatly: "Report to Lord Wen, this official should go to the banquet on time as promised." ”

Pei Zheng arched his hand and said, "The small one understands, and the small one retires." ”

......

At the beginning of the year, the oil lamp was on, and people came and went in the courtyard of the Li Mansion, preparing for the dinner.

In the morning, Pei Zheng came back after sending the salute and told Wen Feng the news that Jinzhou Assassin promised to go to the banquet on time.

Wen Feng immediately found Li Yuan, and on the grounds that he lacked manpower around him and was not familiar with the people in Taiyuan City, he proposed to Li Yuan to borrow the partial courtyard of the Li Mansion and banquet the Jinzhou Assassin in the name of the mission.

Although Li Yuan greatly despised Wen Feng's generous behavior in his heart, he did not refuse, but instead instructed Li He to be more luxurious, ostensibly giving Wen Feng face.

Seeing that the goal was achieved, Wen Feng clasped his fists and saluted, thanking him again and again to express his inner joy.

Li Yuan saw Wen Feng's performance, if it weren't for the cultivation of a child of the family, the look of contempt would have been on his face.

And Li He got Li Yuan's orders, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and arranged the kitchen to seriously prepare a table of delicacies from the mountains and seas, including many medicinal foods made with rare elixirs that were very beneficial to martial artists.

The maids who are in charge of serving the food are all with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, white skin and beautiful appearance, and they can make their debut as otaku gods and goddesses with a little packaging.

Because it was in the name of the embassy to entertain Jinzhou Thorn Shi Luo Ning, only the grassland king Shizi, Wen Feng and Lin Xing were accompanied.

Li Yuan didn't show up the whole time, I don't know if he didn't like it, or in order to avoid taking the lead and causing unnecessary misunderstandings.

At three o'clock, the banquet officially began.

Wen Feng suddenly beckoned to Li He, asking the people of the Li Mansion to withdraw from the side courtyard, leaving only Pei Zheng to serve left and right.

Li He immediately understood, arched his hand, and left with a group of maids.

Pei Zheng was angry and cold when he saw this, and his heart was full of fragrance: Go to the special, you don't have to do less work, you don't have to eat meat, even if you don't have a share, why do you squeeze Lao Tzu?

Believe it or not, Lao Tzu learned from Brother Crow and lifted the table?

Wen Feng didn't care how unhappy Pei Zheng was in his heart, got up and raised his wine glass, and smiled at Luo Ning: "When I first arrived under Lord Luo's rule, this official will toast a glass first." ”

In terms of official positions alone, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites is the third grade, even if the Beijing official is naturally half a rank higher than the local official, it is still lower than the thorn history of the second grade.

Wen Feng should have claimed to be a subordinate official, but now that he is also a chaplain, he claims to be his own official, which is also in the past.

Luo Ning is well versed in the way of officialdom, and hurriedly got up and clinked glasses with him and said: "As a magistrate, this official should have done his best to be a landlord, but he didn't expect to be preempted by the Li family, so he really didn't want to go, this cup should be my respect for Lord Wen." ”

Wen Feng insisted: "How can I do that?"

You and I were in a stalemate for a while, and the two suddenly looked at each other very tacitly and smiled, and said in unison: "Let's do it together." ”

After drinking, Wen Feng picked up the wine jug and took the initiative to pour a full bottle of wine for Luo Ning, and sandwiched a piece of meat for the "Grassland King Prince" beside him, but ignored Lin Xing beside him.

And greeted in the tone of the host: "Come on, come, don't be polite, eat and drink well." ”

Then Wen Feng drank three cups in a row with Luo Ning for various reasons.

At the fourth cup, Wen Feng smiled with a red face: "Come, let's have a drink together......"

Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly changed drastically, he threw himself forward, spit out a mouthful of black blood, and shouted angrily: "It's not good, someone poisoned it." ”
