Su Jin took the lead, and each of the Dynasty Mahans carried a food box and a jar of wine and followed behind Su Jin. They walked through the crunching snow and walked along the path in the back hall to Song Xiang's residence in the inner hall of the mansion.
Song Xiang had just returned from staring at the square for a long time. He was extremely chilled when he saw the miserable situation of the people, but there was really no way. He would never do anything like tampering with military supplies, but he had no other way. It was really
Urgent rupture of liver and intestines.
Su Jin politely stood outside the door and said in a tall voice: "Your Majesty, Su Jin wants to see you."
Song Xiang's face darkened and he thought to himself: "This kid is making noise again." He made up his mind not to give him a good face, so he said: "Special Envoy Su, don't waste your time talking about it. We are determined to do it."
It doesn’t make sense.”
Su Jin smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. I am here to apologize to you. I did not consider it carefully and offended you a lot with my words. After thinking about it, I realized that it was too abrupt, so I am here to apologize to you today."
I sincerely apologize to you, and at the same time, I have thought of a way that may be able to solve the immediate worries, and I would like to discuss it with you."
Song Xiang was a little puzzled. Su Jin had come to have a big quarrel with him in the morning and scolded him for being an old fool. This time, he suddenly made a 180-degree turn. He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd, but when he heard that
He said that there is a new way, so you can listen to it. I am very worried at the moment, so it doesn't hurt to listen to what this kid has to say, maybe it will be enlightening.
"The envoy is very polite. Please come in. It's very cold outside."
Su Jin opened the curtain and entered the room. Wang Chao, Mahan and Han placed the food boxes, wine and dishes on the table one by one, and took the wine cups to fill up the wine. Song Xiang asked in astonishment: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?"
"
Su Jin smiled and said: "When I came to Yangzhou Mansion, I was taken care of by your lord in many ways. I was very grateful. However, my previous words were not self-respecting, which made me feel even more guilty. So I brought some food and wine to treat your lord to have a drink.
The first one is to express gratitude, and the second one is to apologize."
Song Xiang smiled and said: "Why is this? It is normal to argue over official matters. Special Envoy Su does not need to be upset. Why are you spending so much money?"
Su Jin said: "It should be, it should be. How about asking Brother Shaoqing to come and have two glasses of wine with me? He also takes good care of me and thanks me."
Song Xiang said with a stern face: "This unscrupulous man just got angry with me. Now he is hiding in the inner room and refuses to come out. He is really ignorant. The special envoy is seven or eight years younger than him. He can't catch up with you in his actions and words. Don't call him
That’s fine.”
Su Jin hurriedly said: "How to do that? I admire Brother Song very much as a man, so I will go and invite him personally."
Before he finished speaking, the small curtain inside was lifted, and Song Quan came out and said: "How dare you, Mr. Labor Special Envoy, I'm here."
Su Jin hurriedly greeted everyone to sit down. The three of them sat at the table and ate in front of a table full of sumptuous food and wine. Song Xiang lived in poverty, and when Su Jin came there, he only served home-cooked side dishes, and the best was just a fish.
At this moment, when I saw the wine, meat, chickens and ducks, my stomach, which had not had any oil or water for a long time, began to growl.
Su Jin greeted Yan Yan diligently, smiled and said endless good things. Then Song Xiang was fed bowl after bowl of broth. When the wine was dry, all the sadness in his heart was poured away, and the things in the ice and snow outside were put aside for the time being.
lay down.
Seeing that it was almost done, Su Jin opened the jar of good wine, poured a full round, and raised his glass: "Your Majesty, I would like to propose a toast to you. When I left the capital, I heard that your Excellency was born during the reign of Tiansheng.
The Number One Scholar, I have been with you for the past few days. I am really talented and knowledgeable, and I only use this cup to express my respect for the Lord of the Palace."
Song Xiang raised his glass drunkenly and said: "Now that we are gone, why mention him in the past? Now everything depends on you young people."
Su Jin said: "Let's talk after we're done." He raised his glass in gesture.
Song Quan raised his glass to compensate for the drink, but Su Jin quickly stopped him and said, "Brother Song, don't be impatient. I will pay tribute to you alone later."
Song Xiang tilted his neck and drank the glass of wine completely. Su Jin also drank the wine in the cup, leaned over and took the tea cup to drink tea, and spit all the wine into the tea cup.
Song Quan clicked his lips and frowned slightly while looking at the wine glass. Su Jin hurriedly said: "Eat vegetables, eat vegetables. The wine is not very appetizing when it is cold. Eat some goose heads. It is said that goose heads can nourish the brain."
Song Xiang said with a smile: "Goose heads can strengthen the brain. It is a rumor. People say that goose heads are stupid. If you eat these stupid goose brains, you will become stupid and even stupider."
Su Jin pointed out tall and pointed: "Your Majesty has a keen eye and what he said makes sense. I will never draw inferences like this. For the sake of your analysis, I will make it clear."
After that, he filled up Song Xiang's and his own glasses, raised his glasses and said, "It's done."
Song Xiang breathed alcohol and said, "Would you like a drink of these?"
Su Jin said: "Of course, the ancients used poetry to drink wine, but now the Master and I use words to drink wine. We are both elegant and respectful. We drink wine first." After that, he poured the wine into his mouth.
Song Xiang had no choice but to drink the wine. Su Jin said that the moment he raised his neck, he spit the wine into the cup.
Su Jin poured another cup and was about to think of something to say when Song Xiang waved his hand and said, "Just now you said you had some ideas that you wanted to talk to me about. Now it's time to talk about it. The most annoying thing now is this matter. "Well, if it doesn't work out, I plan to spend 200 dan in advance on the official's salary and food, and cook some porridge for charity. The common people are suffering too much."
Su Jinxin said: Even if you still have a heart, you are not a corrupt official with a bad heart, you can only be regarded as a confused official.
"Master Fu, there are always more solutions than difficulties. In fact, I have already thought of a clever plan that will definitely work."
"Oh? Then why don't you hurry up and tell me."
"Don't be anxious. After drinking this glass, I will tell you in detail for you, sir." Su Jin smiled and raised his glass.
Song Xiang did not doubt that he was there. He raised his glass and drank every drop. Finally he couldn't help but said: "Why does this wine have a sour taste? It tastes very unpleasant."
Su Jin said with a smile: "There is a shortage of food now. It would be nice to have wine. The adults are still picky and don't want to think about how many people are hungry outside."
Song Xiang heard the teasing tone in Su Jin's words, which was completely different from the previous humility. He looked at Su Jin with some surprise. Su Jin smiled and said, "What's going on? Is there something wrong with my face?"
Song Xiang pointed at Su Jin, his tongue suddenly stiffened, and he said: "You...you..."
Su Jin smiled and said: "Master, don't you want to ask me for advice? My strategy is: open a warehouse... release... military... food."
Song Xiang was anxious, but could no longer speak. Seeing Su Jin's smile gradually blurred in front of him, his vision finally turned dark and he fell asleep.
Song Quan was shocked: "Su Jin, what did you do to my father?"
Su Jin cupped his hands and said, "Brother Song, don't worry, it's just that you drank the Menghan medicinal wine. Your Majesty may have to sleep all day."
Song Quan was stunned. He didn't expect that the dignified envoy would resort to such despicable methods. However, thinking about the behavior of visiting people's houses that day and night, Song Quan finally understood what kind of person Su Jin was. In order to do things, this person, He can do anything to lose his identity.
At this point, there was no point in blaming him. Su Jin called to the Dynasty Mahan to help carry the snoring Master to the inner room to rest. Song Quan personally took action and found a golden seal on the back of Song Xiang's waist. Su Jin
I took it over and saw that the small gold seal was engraved with several boys: the seal of Yangzhou Zhizhou Zhengtang.
Song Quan brought Su Jin and others to Song Xiang's study, and took out the official paper on the desk. Under his guidance, Su Jin used the strengths he had learned in his physical body to imitate Song Xiang's notes and wrote the official document on opening a warehouse for relief.
According to Song Quan's instructions, a special large seal was stamped on the lower third of the document, and a private seal was stamped between the pages of the official document. It was carefully dried by the fire, put into a bag, and dripped with fire paint.
Lacquer seal.
Su Jin hid it in his arms, and everyone put away the dishes, wine and food, picked up the food boxes and left the inner hall. Song Quan saw the servant and maid standing at the door, thought for a while, turned back and said to them: "
The master is tired and has already gone to bed. No one is allowed to come in and disturb you. It is cold and snowy. You go back to your room to rest and wait for me again tomorrow morning. Leave two people to guard the door. No one is allowed to come in. If there is anything going on at the Yamen, they will call you.
They'll come back tomorrow morning."
The servants felt strange that it was just after noon and the young master actually said that he would serve him again in the morning. Could it be that the master could sleep until dawn tomorrow? But as a servant, he should not talk too much. They realized this.
There were still some, so they dispersed.
Before leaving the inner hall, Su Jin bowed to Song Quan sincerely, Song Quan returned the bow silently, and the two of them went their separate ways tacitly.dd
