Chapter 155 Officials Listen to Books

"Do you come here every day to listen to books?"

"Yes, I am in the private room on the second floor every day. It is normal that the young master has no impression."

The private room on the second floor... Jiang Fan immediately thought that there was a guest on the second floor who generously rewarded fifty taels of silver every day. He thought it was the eunuch in front of him. But this person just mentioned it in one word and had no intention of mentioning it at all. He is a very good person.

Zhao Er took out a delicate wooden block from his arms and presented it to Jiang Fan with both hands: "Master, your majesty will listen to the storyteller today. Your identity should not always be caged with chopsticks. I specially asked a craftsman to make this piece of wake-up call." Mu, would you like to try it?"

Jiang Fan took it and put it in his hands. He immediately raised his eyebrows and took a closer look. He saw that it was made of agarwood, with extremely exquisite patterns carved on the front. It must have been made by a famous craftsman. This palm-sized piece is much more valuable than gold of the same size.

He couldn't help but look at the eunuch in front of him. This guy was very good at giving gifts and kept his cool.

Seeing Jiang Fan looking at him, Zhao Er knew in his heart that he must have seen it, but he did not take credit for it. He just smiled and said: "Young master, there must be someone who can take advantage of the story, so that he will not lose face in front of His Majesty. Oh, by the way, there is also this. "Young Master talks for half an hour every day. You can use it when you are thirsty. This thing is nothing, but it has some benefits. It can keep the water warm for a long time."

With that said, he handed a green gourd held by the maid to Jiang Fan.

Having learned from the past, Jiang Fan knew that this gourd must be extraordinary. Sure enough, the warmth I got was actually made of warm jade. Well, if agarwood is more expensive than gold, this thing is worth at least a hundred times.

"Eunuch Zhao...what do you mean?"

Zhao Er said: "Master, just call me Zhao Er. These are just gadgets for storytelling. Master, please don't refuse."

He spoke in an understatement, his attitude was sincere, and his reasons were hard to refuse.

Jiang Fan looked at him and suddenly smiled: "Okay, if you're interested, I'll accept it."

Zhao Er was immediately overjoyed. Being able to successfully give the gift meant that the relationship between the two had taken a further step forward.

"I wonder what else the young master needs to prepare today, I am willing to do it for you."

Jiang Fan said: "It's okay, just like usual, no need to prepare anything."

Zhao Er also said goodbye very wisely: "In that case, I won't bother you anymore and take my leave."

Jiang Fan didn't show off his guests either, and extended his hand slightly: "Go slowly, Yanzi, see off the guests on my behalf."

"Don't dare bother me, don't dare bother me... Commander Gu will stay."

Zhao Er left with a smile on his face.

Jiang Fan looked at the gourd and Xingmu in his hands thoughtfully.

Gu Beiyan said: "I have seen this man. He is also a man of both sides among the eunuchs. Many people privately regard him as the leader. These things he sent today may seem inconspicuous, but they are worth at least a thousand pieces of gold. But as he said, the young master's affection for him No need to be polite to him."

Jiang Fan shook his head and smiled lightly: "This Zhao Er... is a bit interesting..."

While there was still some time, Gu Beiyan introduced the four Dragon Eagle Guards to Jiang Fan.

"They were all my subordinates originally. The names of the Dragon Eagle Guards were all given by the commander. We belong to the Qinglong Guards, one of the three dragon guards. They are Long One, Long Two, Long Three, and Long Four. Long Yi's cultivation level The highest level is the Grandmaster realm, and the other three great martial artists are at their peak level.”

The four of them paid tribute to Jiang Fan again. Jiang Fan smiled and said: "You don't have to be polite. From now on we are all one family, just call me son. Speaking of which, it is all because of me that you were demoted. I'm sorry."

"You absolutely don't dare. It's an honor for the four of us to follow the young master."

Long Yi cupped his fists and said. He didn't lie about this matter. Although it was a great honor to be selected into the Dragon Eagle Guard, it was impossible to stay in the Dragon Eagle Guard for the rest of his life. He had to have a destination after reaching a certain age. And they are not stupid. Jiang Fan has such a close relationship with His Majesty. Being his bodyguard is better than anywhere else.

"From now on, the four of you will be responsible for the security of the home and the concierge's communication." Gu Beiyan arranged.

"yes!"

"These two girls, please introduce yourself to the young master."

The two women are not very old, only about sixteen or seventeen years old. And they were born exactly the same, actually twins.

The girl on the left stepped forward, curtsied and saluted.

"Master, my name is Xie Xiaohua, my elder sister, and my younger sister's name is Xie Xiaoyu."

Xie Xiaoyu also stepped forward and saluted: "I have met the master, the mistress."

Jiang Fan couldn't help but smile, what a pair of interpreters.

However, the sound of the mistress made Gu Beiyan stunned for a moment, and then said: "Don't scream, I am the master's maid, just like you."

The two looked at each other and apologized quickly.

Jiang Fan smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, she is the housekeeper, you can just call her housekeeper."

Gu Beiyan was promoted, so she didn't say anything about it. It was probably just that.

"From now on, you two will be responsible for washing, cleaning and other chores."

Gu Beiyan immediately arranged for the six people to work. For such a big house, it is very inconvenient not to have a concierge, guards, or maids. With these six people, security, communication, and cleaning are much easier.

But compared to this big house, there are still few people. Brother Taohua will be back soon... Jiang Fan thought.

It was almost noon and Jiang Fan had arrived at Penglaiju. As soon as he entered, the sight in front of him startled him.

The house was full of guests as usual, but all of these people were extraordinary. Although they were wearing casual clothes, they could not hide their magnanimity. Looking at the empress sitting in the middle, I instantly understood that there was probably not a single commoner here.

The owner and the shopkeeper were almost going crazy. They actually let His Majesty and the civil and military officials wait. Jiang Fan, you are too good. They hurried over tremblingly: "My young master, why are you here just now? His Majesty and the others have arrived for a cup of tea. Go over and greet them."

At this time, the civil and military officials were also curiously looking at the storyteller. He was incredibly young, at most sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a loose white coat, long hair, and a handsome face. He was a very elegant young man. However, there was a lazy smile at the corners of the boy's eyes and lips, which made people feel that he seemed a little cynical.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Jiang Fan waved his hand to the owner: "They are just here to listen to the story, why greet them."

After that, he walked straight to his table.

The owner was stunned, "You..."

That was His Majesty and the civil and military officials, the most powerful existence in the Qin Dynasty, but at this moment she did not dare to say much and hurriedly stepped aside.

Jiang Fan's behavior surprised many officials. Didn't this kid know who was coming today? How could he be so casual, even arrogant? Many people suspected that this guy was either a real madman or a fake arrogance. Only the old man Meng Ao couldn't help but laugh. This kid was really interesting.

However, after a flash of surprise, Xu Fu's face was thoughtful. This young man was actually the young man who had lived in the emperor's bedroom. No wonder the emperor said he had seen him. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the empress. She looked calm and there was nothing unusual.

Jiang Fan looked around and suddenly said, "Boss, where are the grandfather and grandson who play the erhu and sell dried fruits? Let them in."

The shopkeeper knew who he was talking about as soon as he heard it. Five days ago, an elderly man brought a little girl to the restaurant, hoping to come in and ask for a meal. The shopkeeper was about to refuse, but Jiang Fan asked them to come in and let them play the erhu for customers and sell dried fruits to make a living in this building.

But what time is it now? His Majesty is here, and there are civil and military officials. You actually let a pair of civilians in? Are you crazy?

The shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Jiang Fan, His Majesty is here, you can't make trouble, tell the story quickly.

Jiang Fan frowned and said again: "Let them in, the people also want to listen. Many people today can't listen to the story, and they have to rely on them to spread it. "

Wang Dongzhu and Liu Shopkeeper's calves began to cramp. Not to mention them, even many officials are a little unhappy. If the empress hadn't spoken, many people would have opened their mouths to reprimand.

Wang Dongzhu was full of anxiety. Just when he was about to say something, he heard the empress say lightly: "Allowed."

The two of them were relieved and hurriedly ran out to find the grandfather and grandson.

While Jiang Fan's behavior since he came in surprised the civil and military officials, they were also surprised that His Majesty had no reaction to it.
