"Father-in-law! Why did you come in person? Xiang Chu hurriedly stepped forward.
"Oh! I have something to find you, and naturally I came. Lu Qiang said with a smile.
The sound of the piano in the tent immediately stopped, and Ren ran to the door of the tent and bowed
"Gongzi! My lord! Hurry up and come in. "
"Xiang Sima! Your wife is very knowledgeable. Not bad! Lu Qiang paced into the tent.
"Lord Xie praised! Have a seat. Ren smiled and immediately ran to make tea.
"Mrs. Xiang's song "Youlan" just now really makes me don't know the taste of meat in the next March."
"Adults who pass the prize are just playing indiscriminately, where can they get into the hall." Ren said with a smile.
"I don't know if my father-in-law is coming, what is the matter?" Xiang Chu sat down and handed over.
"Since there are no outsiders, let me tell the truth, did you send someone to find Zhang Rang?"
Seeing that Xiang Chu was silent, Lu Qiang said with a smile: "You might as well say it bluntly, I have no malice." "
Xiang Chu hesitated again and again, and simply gritted his teeth and said, "Exactly!" I offended a lot of people, which is really a helpless move. "
"Hmm! You are honest and I like it. Lu Qiang nodded and paused, "Zhang Rang asked for an official general for you, He Jin did not agree to it, and the emperor couldn't help it." "
"Thank you father-in-law for mentioning it, I don't know what my father-in-law is looking for me?" Xiang Chu knew it in his heart and said with a smile.
At this time, Ren had brought the tea bowl to the two of them, and then retreated into the inner room with interest.
"Alas! Since you have already made a point, I shouldn't have looked for you, but I heard Huangfu Song say that you are a rare loyal man, so I came to mention a few or two. Lu Qiang said with a smile.
"Father-in-law is a loyal and righteous person, Xiang Mou admires it very much, and is willing to listen to it." Xiang Chu said excitedly.
"This Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are both big traitors and evildoers, and conspiring with them will definitely lead to trouble, and your plan now is to win the emperor's appreciation as soon as possible and let him directly promote you."
"Grandfather Xie reminded me in time, but how can I win the emperor's appreciation?" Xiang Chu said with a wry smile.
"It is impossible for the emperor to take the initiative to summon you, you can go to the West Garden, and you will naturally be appreciated."
The West Garden is the place opened by Emperor Hanling to sell official knights, and the prices of various official positions are clearly marked, and it is really shocking that a court is so dark.
"Xiang Mou understands! Thank you father-in-law. "
"No thanks! Maybe one day you can help me too. Goodbye! After Lu Qiang finished speaking, he got up and did not forget to remind, "Don't tell outsiders that we have met, otherwise it will be bad for you." "
The next day, Xiang Chu led everyone into the city, let Guo Jia, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei wander the streets, and he took Jian Yong straight to the West Garden outside the palace.
He was ready to give another gift in the form of buying an official, but this time it was against Emperor Liu Hong.
Throughout the ages, there has only been the Hanling Emperor who openly sold official titles, and how black and white turned upside down in his time, accidentally let him cross over and encounter it.
"Master! Knowing this, what gift do we give to Zhang Rang? Really! Jian Yong said regretfully.
"Send it, send it, it is still useful, he did propose to the emperor to appoint me as a partial general." Xiang Chu said with a smile.
In the West Garden, there is a set of procedures for buying and selling officials, because local officials can raid the people twice as expensive as imperial officials.
Of course, the economic situation in different places is different, and the price is also different, and the official who asks for the evaluation bid, and the highest bidder wins the bid.
According to historical records, although Emperor Xiangfusong and Zhu Yan were made officials, they were soon relieved because the "Ten Constant Attendants" could not ask for bribes.
And Emperor Han Ling will soon increase the tax to build Bigui and Lingkunyuan, and shape the copper man, naturally he will be more crazy to accumulate wealth.
Xiang Chu and Jian Yong searched the guards, paid the entrance fee, put on masks, and entered the West Garden.
There are many people who come to buy officials, but no one knows who the other party is.
Local officials are the most expensive, followed by imperial officials, and military generals are relatively cheaper, because uprisings are raging everywhere, who will spend money to send them to death.
"I already know what yellow scarf to play, find Zhang Rang to give what gift, and run directly here to buy an official official." Xiang Chu saw that the highest miscellaneous general that could be bought by military attachés was only 40 million dollars, and he immediately felt regret in his heart.
Jian Yong spun around, came over and whispered, "Master! The merchant opened by the emperor was over there, but it was twice as expensive as the ten constant attendants. "
"Good! Go over and see, no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy his official. Xiang Chu nodded.
The Hanling Emperor Liu Hong's place of selling officials was different from the Ten Constant Attendants, and no one frequented it, because it was too expensive, which showed the greed of his people.
A miscellaneous (i.e., a general of various names), such as General Woo Rebel and General Yokono, is priced at 80 million, while the good-sounding General Fubo is 81 million dollars.
"Father-in-law! I buy this General Fubo. Xiang Chu pointed to General Fubo's sign and said.
"Fill in this name tag, we have to look at your identity, if you have high qualifications, you can also get a discount." The clerk said with a smile.
"Good!" Xiang Chu picked up the name tag, his heart was beating, his hands were shaking, and he filled it in with great excitement.
After the name tag was handed over, it was sent into a closed room in the back, and it took a long time to send it out.
"It turns out that you are a meritorious minister, congratulations on your passing, and remove the fraction, 80 million, pay the money in the next room." The eunuch smiled even brighter, and added, "Ask your companion to go back first, after handing over the money, someone will lead you into the palace to listen to the seal, and only if you buy it from our side can you have such an honor." "
Next, Xiang Chu handed over 80 million money, and was immediately led into the palace by a eunuch, presumably that Ling Emperor Liu Hong wanted to personally issue him an appointment edict.
