Chapter 601 The little emperor eats three big pendants and asks for help
Don't try to kill them all.
Hearing these six words, Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows in disapproval. Everyone had seen what Liu Jin had done in the past year or so. He had killed Wang Yue and others, and Liu Jian and Xie Qian had already been expelled from the imperial court. People often apply eye drops in front of Zhu Houzhao. As for the number of times he stabbed Xu Xun behind his back, is it too many? The most annoying thing is that time in Ningxia, if it weren't for the trouble caused by Wang Ning, as for Anhua Can Wang Zhu Zhixiu take advantage of this opportunity? What's more, Zhu Houzhao's affection for Liu Jin is already extraordinary. If he can't be beaten to death, there will be endless troubles in the future!
How could Gu Dayong fail to see Zhang Yong's expression? Knowing that Zhang Yong was not interested in Liu Jin now, he was silent for a moment and then said: "If we really fight, we won't give up until we fight to the death. I also know the outcome. When the outcome is determined, it would be a joke to ask Mr. Xu to just stop at that point, just like if Lao Liu got an advantage, he wouldn't let us go. But after all, we had the feeling of helping each other in the same boat, so I didn't I don't want to save his life, just let his family enjoy their wealth and wealth in peace, this is my bottom line."
Zhang Yong suddenly laughed: "Lao Gu, you are too kind. If Brother Xu loses, will Liu Jin let his family go?"
"Lao Zhang, please stop teasing Lao Gu. I understand what he means." Xu Xun smiled slightly and turned the meat skewers on the iron net over again, watching the golden fat fall on the charcoal fire drop by drop. In the middle, he just raised his head and said, "Lao Gu, we have been making money together for a day or two. If you can trust me, then I will agree to what you just said."
Gu Da's eyelids twitched, with an expression of surprise and joy on his face for a moment. He and Liu Jin wanted to wear a pair of trousers, but it was back when they were both serving in the East Palace, because he committed a crime, and Liu Jin was so tired that he joined him. He was brought to Kunning Palace because Liu Jin was loyal enough not to confess him. The two of them suffered twenty blows together and went back to recuperate together. Liu Jin never blamed him. At that time, he shared the scene of adversity. It’s still fresh in my memory to this day.
Because of this, now that they are both powerful and powerful, they can no longer share wealth and wealth. He wants to sigh every time he thinks about it. But he knows Liu Jin's temper very well. Just like Zhang Yong said, if you can't kill him at once, you will definitely make a comeback in the future, and If they lose, the family will not want to have a good life. But even so, completely letting go of the old feelings goes against his true nature as a human being, so he has such a bottom line.
"Brother Xu...well, I don't have much else to say. All in all, from now on, I will do whatever you say, no matter what!"
Gu Da said decisively, and then stretched out his plump hand. Seeing his condition, Xu Xun immediately stretched out his hand with a smile, and Zhang Yong immediately pressed his hand up. , the three of them just held hands tightly. Then they each flipped the meat skewers in front of them as if nothing had happened, but there was no such thing as an oath or determination.
Now that the words were spoken, the three of them naturally felt a little more relaxed. Next, Zhang Yong smiled and told what Ma Yongcheng, Wei Bin and Luoxiang wanted. Gu Dayong frowned as he listened. Before Xu Xun could speak, he asked doubtfully: "Brother Xu, what's going on with this picture of Xilu? How can I say that I fell out with you, and when I went to Lao Liu, I was praised for something. I heard that Lao Liu Liu obeyed his advice, and this time he even changed his temper and turned away all the money that came to his door?"
Seeing Zhang Yong also showing a curious expression, Xu Xun smiled bitterly and said: "Nowadays, official corruption is rampant. Zhang Xilu believes in using heavy codes to govern troubled times, so he should conduct inspections from time to time. If he fails to complete the tasks that should be completed every year, he should
Demotion should be demoted, and dismissal should be dismissed. This method is certainly good. But if it is implemented hastily, it is very likely that everyone in the officialdom will be in danger, so I don't agree with it. He has a short temper, and I said a few words at that time.
It should be said that they had a falling out. He and Yang Tinghe didn't get along very well, so he transferred Yang Tinghe to Nanjing directly on Old Liu's advice. I annoyed him again, so naturally we stopped talking to each other... You will know what happened next.
As for Lao Liu listening to him, even though he is no longer on my side, I still have to say that Zhang Xilu is indeed a rare talent!"...
Zhang Yong couldn't help but interjected and asked: "If that person is willing to come back, are you willing to overturn the situation and retake it?"
"It's a pity that there are no ifs in this world, otherwise I really want to keep the person. As for everyone in the officialdom, who is in danger, who cares about me?" Xu Xun sighed, but did not continue what Zhang Yong said, but
He smiled and said, "As for Zhang Xilu's advice to Lao Liu to do something with a few corrupt people, I can guess the reason."
He repeated what Zhang Cai said to Liu Jin that day with almost the same meaning. Seeing that Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong's eyes flickered, and they clearly agreed but also had different opinions, he smiled and said: "Of course, he is not only
It is for old Liu Liwei, and also to establish prestige for myself as the new Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Everyone has selfish motives, and he is not under my control now. I still have Wang Jiusi in the Ministry of Civil Affairs who can boss me around, and he is in the Literary Selection Department. However,
Most of the people who fall into the crosshairs of Lao Liu and Zhang Xilu cannot be saved. You should also understand that now I don’t want to touch someone’s bad luck.”
Xu Xun's meaning is very clear. Even if he wants to overturn the situation and regain control, Zhang Cai has become the first person around Liu Jin. Even though he has never heard that he has said anything against his old master, he is a relative of the three Ma, Wei and Luo.
Going to Zhang Cai to intercede might end up being boring, which he wouldn't do. Gu Dayong thought this was the right thing to do, and Zhang Yong was just asking someone to mention a loyal person, so naturally
I won’t dwell on it. So, this topic was brought up again.
When Gu Dayong swallowed the fifteenth skewer of meat, and the plate originally filled with meat skewers gradually shrank, and the mouths of the three of them were already full of oil, an unimaginable fragrance suddenly floated outside.
.Seeing the door fully open, and two people carrying a huge iron plate in, Gu Dayong's eyes suddenly lit up, but then he burped in an unexpected way. Faced with his appearance, Zhang Yong suddenly became amused.
With a smile, when the iron plate was put down on the round table, he immediately rolled up his sleeves.
"I have long heard that this roasted whole lamb can only be tasted at the banquet of Meng people. Each person only has a small piece. Today, the three of us share the whole lamb, but we have to feast on it! Fortunately, I just
I specially saved my appetite, and that lamb hind leg belongs to me!" As he said this, he was about to reach out to grab the knife on the table, but suddenly he heard a cry from outside.
"Master!" The person who rushed in angrily was Abao, who had gone to deliver the post yesterday. He glanced at Zhang Yong, then at Gu Dayong, and then muttered, "The emperor is here!"
Zhu Houzhao is here? Yesterday, when the little emperor heard Xu Xun's post inviting him and Gu Dayong to go to his house for a drink, wasn't he so bold that they didn't have to wait in front of the emperor, and even said that Xu Xun owed him a meal?
? Why did the murder suddenly come now? Faced with such a strange situation, even though Zhang Yong is usually conceited and smart, he was confused for a moment.
Gu Dayong didn't find it strange. Seeing Xu Xun hurriedly wiping his hands and walking out to greet him, he was about to follow him. Seeing Zhang Yong in a daze, he immediately went up and grabbed the person and walked out, asking puzzled questions all the way.
He said: "The emperor loves to join in the fun. It's not like you don't know. There's nothing strange about this."
"Ahem. I'm just confused!"
Zhang Yong knew that he didn't want to think so much, so he simply said this vaguely. After leaving the courtyard and not walking far, Zhang Yong saw the little emperor rushing towards him with flying steps, and Rui Sheng trotted behind him.
Then, he didn't know how difficult it was for the Xu family to come and report the news before this little ancestor arrived. After the meeting, he saw Zhu Houzhao sniffing suddenly, looking like a puppy looking for food everywhere.
, even Xu Xun couldn't help but laugh. He coughed immediately and said: "The emperor came just in time, and the roasted whole lamb has just been served."….
"Oh, I happened to catch it just in time. It's better to catch it early than to catch it right!"
Zhu Houzhao was beaming for a moment, but he left the three of them and walked forward happily along the scent. When Zhang Yong saw Xu Xun and Gu Dayong, he immediately chased after him, and couldn't help but pulled Ruisheng who was about to catch up and asked
: "Why did the emperor come suddenly?"
"Eunuch Zhang, isn't it because of you?" Ruisheng glanced at Zhang Yong with a bitter face, and then said with a sigh, "The emperor said that Marquis Pingbei posted a message to you two when he had nothing to do. He must have some other tricks. Maybe
If there is anything delicious and fun, you must avoid him. If he had said to follow him yesterday, you would definitely have removed the delicious and fun things. He suddenly came to kill you today, and you were caught off guard. No matter what it is, he can catch it.
Come on. Isn’t that why the emperor has caught up with the roasted whole lamb?”
At this point, Ruisheng sighed again: "Last night at the Queen's place, the emperor swore that he would read the memorial today. But now he has failed again. I don't know how he will be blamed later!"
Is this really... he provoked the emperor? Zhang Yong was angry and funny for a moment, but everyone was here, and what they were supposed to say and express before was done. At this time, they naturally didn't care about the little emperor coming to share a cup.
Soup. Even so, when he returned to the small building, he saw the little emperor holding a leg of lamb in one hand, eating one bite at a time until his mouth was full of oil, and Xu Xungu Dayong divided a front leg with another person. He immediately became even more excited.
He was so angry that he picked up the knife and cut off a large piece of mutton chop in front of him.
Although I may have been particular about eating too much and not getting tired of fine food, now I see everyone eating too much, whether Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong, Zhu Houzhao or Xu Xun, everyone seems to be competing with others for food.
It seemed like they were eating like crazy. Ruisheng and Abao stared at the big roasted lamb as they watched the huge roasted whole lamb gradually reduced to its skeleton. In the end, Xu Xun was still considerate of the two of them and copied.
He cut off two large pieces of meat with a knife and put them on a plate, but a plate was stuffed into one person's hand.
"Master..."
"Master Hou..."
"Those who have seen it have their share. We can't eat meat while you watch. If we don't eat it, it will be gone!"
Both Ruisheng and Abao knew Xu Xun's temperament. Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was busy, they nodded slightly. The two of them were already a little hungry, so they simply started eating without caring.
It was completely wiped out in a short time. However, as Xu Xun just said, the four people always ate extra sweetly and quickly while fighting for food. At this moment, only the white bones were left on the sheep, which looked extra clean.
So, Ruisheng and Abao looked at each other, hurriedly went out and washed their hands first, then fetched warm water from a copper basin and served everyone to wash their hands one by one.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao, who had just been eating and not talking, sat down comfortably and gave a satisfying burp. Only then did he smell his hands, which even though they had been pancreased, could still smell some fishy odor.
, and then said lazily: "Xu Xun, I came here uninvited this time, so I'll let you go. If you continue to eat delicious food secretly without me in the future, it won't be so cheap... Yes
Okay, I haven’t asked you yet, why would you send that kind of post to Zhang Yonggu if you have nothing to do?”
"The Emperor is really as considerate as his hair."
Xu Xun coughed dryly and then said in a low voice: "I have too many guests coming to visit now, and they are all distinguished military attaches. They are all turned away if they are not good. It is a bit annoying to deal with them back and forth. As soon as this post is sent, I will go up.
Everyone knows that I have important guests today, and there are no outsiders, so they will not disturb me again. It is not surprising that the alley in front of the door is clear. Otherwise, as soon as the emperor stops at the door today, I am afraid that I will be at the threshold.
It was trampled.”….
"Ha, I see, you are very smart!"
Zhu Houzhao was immediately convinced. At this time, he was full of wine and food, and flowers and fruit tea were brought in. Everyone sat and chatted. Naturally, Zhu Houzhao, the little emperor, said sadly that it would be difficult to take Zhou Qiniang with him after the wedding.
He was running around, not to mention regretful. Faced with such a situation, Xu Xun could only cough dryly and planned to change the topic. But at this moment, Tao Hong's voice suddenly came from outside.
"Your Majesty, Young Master, Eunuch Zhang, Eunuch Gu... Eunuch Ma, Eunuch Luo, and Eunuch Wei are asking to see you. They say they have urgent matters and want to ask for your help, Master!"
"Come in and talk." After Tao Hong came in, Zhu Houzhao waved his hand to stop him from saluting, and Xu Xun asked again, "Do they know that the emperor is here?"
"This little one really doesn't know... I only know that they know that Eunuch Zhang and Eunuch Gu are here to drink today." Tao Hong said this, glanced sideways at Zhu Houzhao, and then lowered his voice and said, "Look at Eunuch Ma and Eunuch Wei.
Eunuch Luo looked a little embarrassed, as if he had been torn or fought with someone."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Houzhao, who was originally frowning, suddenly raised his eyebrows. He stood up almost with a cry, then looked at Xu Xungu Dayong and Zhang Yong, and said in an excited tone: "Don't say I'm here!
People bring them in, and I secretly listen to what they say!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
