The General's Mansion was completed as scheduled. When it was relocated, the team could be said to be vast and covered with two or three streets.
Because this is the completion of a new house, and Huo Jingchen is a foreigner, all the daily use of furniture is given by the emperor.
The sound of gongs and drums and noise spread throughout the capital. Many residents on the riverside came out to watch the fun, hoping to see General Huo, his joy could help him avoid misfortune.
Of course, the dishes for the banquet were from Chef Jiang Xiaojiu. Because there were too many dishes, I could only let others do it for them, but there was still no change.
The Beijing officials who attended the banquet were used to life in the north and had never eaten southern dishes. When they encountered such meals, they felt very novel and had not had much time to finish them all.
After drinking and hearing the heat, Huo Chenyang suddenly walked up, and the people around him were holding an exquisite box in their hands.
Before, Huo Chenyang just gave dozens of taels of silver as the cost of moving. Now it seems that he is not here to deliver things, and he is probably here to cause trouble.
Before Huo Jingchen could speak, Huo Chenyang presented the box and said with a smile: "Cousin, I encountered a problem before, but it has not been solved yet. That is a nine-series given to me by Prime Minister Zhang. It is still impossible to open it yet.
”
As he said that, he opened the lid of the box and took out a string of nine-band bracelets carved with high-quality ice jade.
It was made of large pieces of stone, without any gaps, and it was simply impossible to open.
The prime minister gave it to Huo Chenyang, but he did not say that it could be solved. It was just an ordinary gift. Now he has come up with this problem just to give Huo Jingchen a problem.
Huo Jingchen looked at the Nine-Serial and smiled and said, "I don't know what is in the sky that is so clever. Brother Yu has no choice but to ask for advice from me."
"Haha, it turns out that Brother Yu has no choice. Everyone says you are an earl and I am a marquis. Since yours is similar to my marquis, how can you take on the position of this Count?"
Everyone here put down their wine glasses, as if they had heard the horn of a fierce battle.
Jiang Hexi also felt the embarrassment of the scene. She walked to the table and looked at the nine series.
It is clearly a whole stone, and it can only be broken if it is untied. And this nine-ring is a gift from the prime minister, and most people dare not break it.
What a sinister trick, what a cruel way!
However, thinking that he had experienced all kinds of storms and waves, and doing something in front of the prime minister was nothing, so he picked up this Jiulian and threw it on the ground.
"Baji!" Jiuhuan cracked many fragments.
"You, how can you break the Prime Minister's gift?" Huo Chenyang pointed at Jiang Hexi and roared.
"You just asked me to open him, but didn't ask me to save it. I wonder what the Prime Minister thinks?" Jiang Hexi looked at Huo Chenyang with a righteous attitude and glanced at the Prime Minister again.
Prime Minister Zhang is an old minister in the court, and he is most afraid of others using his reputation to do things.
However, I didn't expect that Huo Chenyang would commit crimes against the wind and not take any pot, so I probably don't have to give Huo Chenyang this face.
He clapped his hands and said, "How is it? Jiang is still old? You always feel that you are extremely smart. You must know that if you are strong, you will be strong!"
As he said that, he picked up the wine glass and toasted Jiang Hexi and Huo Jingchen with a glass of wine.
"But they actually smashed your gift from Prime Minister, you are not angry at all?" Seeing that Huo Chenyang could not make any attempt, he directly attacked him with words.
"Since you said that was my problem, would I blame others for helping me solve the problem? This bracelet is tightly compatible, but it can't stand the scrutiny outside. Even if it is broken into pieces, it is destined!" Zhang
There is something in the prime minister's words.
"..." Huo Jingchen was speechless and had to return to his seat with an empty box.
Prime Minister Zhang was the elder of the three dynasty who assisted the ancestors and the emperor in the court, and was also the spiritual leader of all civil and military officials. The situation in the court was changing a lot, and they couldn't figure out the details, so they could only follow the leader of Prime Minister Zhang.
Now that Prime Minister Zhang has expressed his position, everyone knows what to do.
They toasted Huo Jingchen one after another, saying that they would follow Huo Jingchen wholeheartedly in the future and would never refuse.
Jiang Hexi looked at Xiao Qiurong with a victorious look. She knew that such a trick was of course from Huo Chenyang, but it would not be possible without Xiao Qiurong's assistance.
She had long known that Xiao Qiurong was fighting with her openly and secretly, and she would not do anything, but just hoped to use the things she did to get her back.
Prime Minister Zhang saw that everyone in the audience was so happy, so he asked someone to serve him in writing and wrote the words "General Hu" on it.
Jiang Hexi looked at the vigorous and powerful words and remembered the kind of yamen runners who were depressed and unsuccessful in Qinghe County. Now is a good time to achieve great success and make achievements.
When Prime Minister Zhang was about to leave, he left a peach wood token and handed it to Huo Jingchen: "Xiao Huo, you have made great contributions to the country this time and have immeasurable merits. This is the gold medal for avoiding death given to me by the emperor. If you are demoted to the official in the future, you will be urgently demoted.
, You can take it and go to the palace freely!"
This is equivalent to giving him the title of imperial envoy.
In the capital, the Count is not a big official title, and even many dukes cannot meet the emperor.
Huo Chenyang was so envious that he was so envious that he stared at the token and didn't leave for a long time.
Xiao Qiurong's jealousy suddenly burst out and slapped Huo Chenyang on the back of the head: "What do you envy? You fought the military achievements of others on the frontier at the beginning, but when you go, the whole army was wiped out. When they go,
Then defeat the enemy!"
Huo Chenyang pointed at Xiao Qiurong in anger and said, "You can do it, you are so capable, you are just a tyrant. Why didn't you live with Huo Jingchen at the beginning? He chose me and now he envies others?"
The maid next to him saw that there were high-ranking officials and noble people everywhere, and everyone's eyes were looking here, and he whispered to Xiao Qiurong not to make trouble.
Xiao Qiurong smashed the wine glass hard on the table, and the wine on it was sprinkled out, just spilling it onto his skirt.
The Prime Minister's wife toasted one by one, arrived at Xiao Qiurong's table and smiled and said, "What's wrong with the Marquis? Is this wine not enough? Then you still keep a little bit on your clothes and go home to drink?"
Xiao Qiurong looked at the Prime Minister's wife with a shame and explained: "No, I just accidentally got some here just now, so don't be surprised."
The Prime Minister’s wife didn’t know anything, but it was not convenient to say it clearly in such an occasion. She smiled and said, “Madam, be careful, it’s small to overturn the wine glass. Next time you overturn the yard, it will be not fun.”
