Chen Yan spent a lot of words to convince Chang Xian.
In fact, the plan is very simple. Pick a loyalist of the Li family, someone with a high position, to offend him, so that the second prince will take the lead and try to kill this direct descendant of the Li family. The Li family will tolerate it, so they will press forward step by step. Li
Home fights back, the better.
In short, he will attack the Li family in the name of the second prince, and then expose all the bad things about the Li family.
Chu Qing thought the same way at first. He was a famous teacher, but Chen Yan knew Chu Qing too well. How could this guy offend someone for no reason?
This is not an attempt to trick Chu Qing. Everyone has different divisions of labor. Since they have chosen to take sides, they have to go all the way to the dark side. Even Qiu Wanshan broke up with the Li family in the court. There is no good thing that wants to take credit without offending others.
.
Originally, Chen Yan wanted to study the matter with Chu Qing when he got off work in the evening, but his disciple came in and said that someone was looking for Chu Qing.
Chu Qing was in a happy mood after spending a whole day spraying officials from the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Affairs. After leaving the government office, he felt even better.
Wearing a veil, Tao Ruolin stood at the door cheerfully. When she saw Chu Qing coming, she waved her hands with smiles in her eyes.
"Why are you here?" Chu Qing walked down the steps and saw Tao Ruolin carrying a food box.
"Looking for you." Tao Ruolin handed the food box to Chu Qing.
"You came here specially to bring me food at night?" When he opened the food box, there were several kinds of exquisite pastries. Chu Qing pretended to be on guard: "To show your courtesy for nothing, to commit adultery or to steal, you can't be greedy for my body.
Bar."
"I didn't bring it for you." Tao Ruolin smiled and said, "It's for your guard Fu San."
Chu Qing's smile froze: "You...don't be interested in Fu..."
"The eldest lady asked me to enter the city and give it to your escort."
Chu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
This is the mentality of men. Regardless of whether they like or be together, when they see a beautiful woman, they will always think more about her.
But the embarrassing thing is this kind of thing. I admire the other person very much, but in the end, someone says, you are a good person, so I like your buddy.
"I have something to ask you." Tao Ruolin stretched her head and glanced at the Household Office: "When did we defraud the ministers of their money? It has been several days."
Just then, a head of the household department came out. When he saw Chu Qing, he said hello: "Chu teaches me."
Before Chu Qing could speak, Tao Ruolin knelt down and saluted: "Hello, my lord."
The chief thought she was a maid from Chu Qing's house, so she stroked her beard and smiled, nodding slightly.
Then Tao Ruolin's second sentence was: "Sir, will you repair the house?"
The boss was confused.
Chu Qing hurriedly said a few polite words to the principal, fearing to be embarrassed, so he let the principal leave.
Tao Ruolin looked eager to try: "Aren't you working as an errand in the Ministry of Household Affairs? Let's trick the officials in the Ministry of Household Affairs first. The rabbits will eat the grass beside the nest."
"Don't make trouble, I will still hang out in the Ministry of Finance from now on." Chu Qing took out the invitation card from his arms in a state of laughter and tears: "Just in time, Mr. Qu, the doctor of the Ministry of Etiquette, invited me to a banquet today. It should be to talk about repairing the house. I also wanted to
I'm on an errand, are you going?"
"The Ministry of Rites Qu Mingtong?"
A strange color flashed across Tao Ruolin's eyes, as if she wanted to speak but hesitated, as if she had something to say.
Chu Qing asked his disciples to call Fu San, but did not notice anything unusual about Tao Ruolin.
"Mr. Chu, please change me to another minister."
"Why?"
"The doctor of the Ministry of Rites, you are so powerful. If the house is not repaired to your satisfaction, wouldn't it mean that you have made someone else's enemy?"
Chu Qing smiled and said, "Didn't you say you were specifically trying to trick big officials? Why, are you afraid?"
"Am I afraid?" Tao Ruolin waved her pink fist: "Okay, then trick him and I'll go with you."
Just as Fu San came out, Chu Qing didn't think much, and the three of them went straight to Qu Mansion.
In fact, it sounds quite strange to say this. He took his own nursing home and other people's maids, ran to the house of a high-ranking official, and then went to discuss "business".
But Chu Qing thinks it’s okay. As a partner, the “shareholders” must be present for the first order.
Fu San also thought it was okay, because...he had no idea what he was doing at the district office.
As for Tao Ruolin, she seems to enjoy it. She doesn't like secular dogma, those dogmas and restrictions that are neither fair nor meaningful to women.
The three of them were chatting and laughing all the way, and Chu Qing and Tao Ruolin decided that the latter would be the maid in the former's house, the kind of person who would be close to her. After she went there, she wanted to find out more about her. She could ask for less, so she could get off to a good start first.
The district office is also in Tai'anfang. The plaque with large gilded characters is very impressive. There is only one door. The thin old man is wearing a neat silk robe.
You must know that the men are servants of a wealthy family, and they should normally wear commoners.
As for the door of this district government, in later generations, the doorman would be regarded as wearing luxurious clothes all day long.
When he saw Chu Qing and the others approaching, the old man saluted, neither arrogant nor humble.
Fu San handed over the invitation, and the old man glanced at it: "It turns out to be Chu Qing, the son of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry."
Chu Qing frowned.
First of all, the name on the invitation was Chu Qing, the household minister, not Chu Qing, the son of the left minister of the Ministry of Industry.
It is undoubtedly very impolite to call him that. If an elder calls him that, it is understandable. After all, your father has a higher official position and a better reputation than you.
The second thing is his name. He is not called Mr. Chu or Mr. Chu, but is called by his first name.
Looking up and down the old man's clothes, Chu Qing secretly suspected that he was so ignorant that he didn't look like a disciple.
Although slightly suspicious, Chu Qing didn't care. Menzi said expressionlessly: "Wait for a while, I will go and report."
Chu Qing was relieved.
They all call themselves me, so they shouldn’t be my disciples.
Tao Ruolin stood behind her, looking at the plaque of the district government with a somewhat incomprehensible expression.
Unexpectedly, after waiting for a full stick of incense, not only did the side door not open, but the old man who just went in to report did not come out again.
Fu San muttered: "Why did it take so long?"
"Maybe he's busy."
Chu Qing said this, but he was also a little angry in his heart.
No matter whether you are busy or not, you should at least invite people in first. There is no reason to leave the guests outside. Moreover, this is not a visit, but an invitation. Your Qufu invites people to the banquet. Normally, you should take out the invitation.
Just take people in directly after posting.
After a while, Fu San asked: "Master, do you want me to knock on the door again?"
After Chu Qing nodded, Fu San stepped forward and turned back: "Knock on the middle door or the side door."
"Side door."
"oh."
Fu San knocked on the door, but there was no sound. He turned his head and looked confused: "Master, are there no survivors in Qu Mansion? Why is no one answering?"
"Knock hard!"
Fu San was kicked twice.
For Fu San, his feet are stronger than his hands, so knocking hard means kicking the door.
The door was finally opened, but it was not the old man just now, but a child.
He was obviously not as tall as Fu San's chest, and he was dressed as a servant, but he looked domineering.
"Knock no matter how hard I knock, I'll keep you waiting. Don't you know the etiquette and rules?"
Anger appeared on Chu Qing's face, but Tao Ruolin had a "Sure enough" expression.
Chen Yan fell to the ground in admiration.
He just knew that Chu Qing could offend people when he spoke, which was very powerful, but he didn't expect that Chu Qing had practiced to the point where he could take the initiative, correctly, and accurately offend the people who deserved to be offended without even saying a word.
