Jiayou's Fun

The moment Lu Qian looked at the door of the coffin shop.

Sijifang, Qifangyuan.

This is a courtyard on the east side of Sijifang, just on the bank of the canal. The streams in the garden are full of living water and are connected to the canal.

The east wall of Qi Fang Yuan is just a six-foot-high decorative flower-bed wall.

On a rockery made of strange rocks, the exquisite flower hall is as warm as spring. The windows and doors on the east side are open, and through the huge crystal pieces, one can overlook the hundreds of ancient plum trees in full bloom in the yard, as well as the lights on the canal outside the wall.

Some people dug ice caves on the frozen river, lit torches, fished, or simply threw down their dragnets.

From time to time, someone exclaimed happily, presumably because they had caught precious fresh fish.

In the monastery, three men in brocade robes were sitting at separate tables.

In the main seat is a thin, tall, handsome but slightly mean and vicious young man.

This is the owner of Qi Fang Yuan, Qi Ren, the ninth son of Dong Qi Bo who was left as a hostage in Hao Jing.

The guest of honor was a middle-aged man with a round appearance and a slightly unrestrained manner.

He was wearing a purple robe, with dark silver Kunpeng and Fuyao patterns on his chest, back, shoulders, elbows, and cuffs.

The founder of the Dayin Wu Dynasty, the founder of the Dayin Dynasty, called himself "Kunpeng" and came to the world. The totem of the royal family of the country was Kunpeng.

There can be royal totems on the robes. This purple-robed man is exactly the uncle of the current Emperor Yin, Yin Ping (xing) who was named the 'King of Lancang'.

In the flower hall, there is a group of more than 20 female musicians playing silk and bamboo, and the beautiful music is like the sound of fairy music.

Another group of seven or eight dancers waved their sleeves and danced lightly in the flower hall to add to the fun.

Outside the flower hall, under the verandah, several master chefs were guarding the stove, working wholeheartedly on a three-foot golden-scaled carp that they had purchased directly from the fisherman on the canal outside for a quarter of an hour.

Yin Ping laughed 'haha'. He was invited to Qi Fang Yuan. He had just sat down at the table, but he had already been drinking wine for several minutes, and a blush appeared on his fair face.

Under Qi Xun's diligent persuasion, Yin Ping drank another minute of fine wine, then put down his glass and waved to the dancers in the flower hall.

Qi Xuan smiled ‘haha’ and clapped his hands vigorously.

The dancers and female musicians quietly exited the flower hall.

Yinping pointed towards the man in green robe who was accompanying him opposite him: "Your Majesty, you will not invite me for the Chinese New Year without any reason. Who in this huge Haojing doesn't know that I, Yinping, can't afford to be early without any benefit?" reputation?"

Qi Xuan smiled and shook his head: "What did the prince say? Today..."

Yinping waved his hands hurriedly: "Don't talk nonsense, don't use empty words to deal with me. People who are celebrating the New Year are very busy. I have at least hundreds of invitations for banquets flying into the house this day. I am here for you today. Here, I give you the face of the boss."

Sighing of alcohol, Yinying squinted his eyes and looked again and again at the man in green robe opposite.

"If I hadn't had a sale of salt and iron on your territory, I wouldn't have come to your place today. So, now that I'm here, let's be honest, little friend, what do you want from me?"

Qi Xun smiled and gestured his thumb towards Yin Chen: "No one is wiser than the prince. Brother Liu, what do you say?"

Liu Wu, who was wearing a green robe, a green headscarf, and two green jade pendants hanging around his waist, quickly stood up and bowed deeply to Yinyin: "Xiaguan Liu..."

Yinping interrupted Liu Wu's words. He tilted his face, looked at Liu Wu sideways and said calmly: "Are you an official?"

Liu Wu hurriedly said: "Liu Wu, the lower official, was appointed as the magistrate of Tuoshan County three years ago. Tuoshan County is the upper county, and the lower official is the official title of the sixth rank of the imperial court."

Yinping touched the short beard on his chin and said in a long voice: "Tuoshan County Magistrate Bu. Tsk, the market situation three years ago, in Shangxian County, from a sixth-grade official to a candidate for a vacant position, it also cost 8 million money!"

Before Liu Wu could speak, Yin Ping continued expertly: "However, these eight million dollars are sent directly to the emperor's private treasury. You have to take care of other things, especially Yu Changle, who wants to take a sum. You should It cost ten million dollars.”

Liu Wu smiled brightly: "Your Majesty is wise, and this is the price!"

Yinping glanced sideways at Liu Wu, snorted coldly, grabbed the wine glass, and took a big sip: "Next time you want to buy an official position, go to me; or if you have relatives or friends who want to buy an official, go to me directly. "

"I contact the emperor directly. There is no middleman to make the difference. Yu Changle and the group of young eunuchs cannot get benefits from it. For example, for a county magistrate to make up for it, I only need nine million here, which is enough. Wouldn’t it be nice to save a million dollars?”

Liu Wu smiled brightly and bowed to Yin Ping repeatedly: "Your Majesty is right, it couldn't be better. In the past, wasn't it that I was a low-ranking official and was not qualified to meet you, Your Majesty?"

Yin Ping laughed brightly: "Hey, in front of me, don't talk about low status and other nonsense. Having money is the last word, and having money is my guest!"

After laughing a few times, Yinping pointed at Liu Wu: "Liu Wu, are you the one who wants to see me today?"

Liu Wu took two steps across, walked out of his seat, and knelt down in front of Yinxiang. He squeezed out two tears and complained bitterly to Yinxiang: "The prince said that the prince is the third person in Haojing City." A man of means.”

Yinping blinked his eyes, waved his hands hurriedly and said: "Don't say that now, there are a few people in Haojing City who I can't afford to offend. The Queen Mother, the Emperor, the General, the Prime Minister, the Taishi Ling, the Du Yushi, these people , I can’t afford to offend this king…”

After hesitating for a while, Yinping murmured: "There is another person who cannot be offended. However, he has not shown his face in Haojing for many years. I think he died outside? Then, these are the people."

"As long as you didn't offend them, what did you do?"

Yinping nodded towards his chest and said in a generous tone: "As long as you don't offend those people I mentioned, even if you kill people and set fires, or even if you raise the banner of rebellion? If you have the money, it will be easy!"

Qi Xuan clapped and laughed at the side: "Brother Liu, I just said that the prince is a cheerful person and a truly fair gentleman. What you did is not a big deal at all."

Liu Wu, who had a grimace on his face just now, suddenly laughed. He kowtowed to Yinxuan and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, I offended you... I don't know why I offended someone, and why I was guarded." Did the palace supervisor give the order to hunt him down?"

Yin Ping frowned, looked at Liu Wu and said, "Being hunted by the palace guard? Do you know the reason?"

Liu Wu shook his head hurriedly: "Your Majesty, this official is just confused. He has no idea what happened."

Yinping put down his wine glass and tapped his fingers on the table.

"This is weird. That old servant Yu Changle is not a wanton person. Which general under the palace guard did you offend? Or the school captain?"

Liu Wu spread his hands to show that he was innocent.

Qi Xuan coughed lightly at the side: "Your Majesty, Brother Liu, there have been drastic changes in the family a few days ago. Brother Liu, can you tell me?"

Liu Wu's eyes rolled around and he said to Yinyin: "Your Majesty, years ago, at Xiaguan's house, years ago... Xiaguan was miserable!"

Liu Wu cried a few times and raised his sleeve to wipe away a tear that was easily squeezed out.

"Years ago, Xiaguan didn't know who he offended. That night, someone suddenly broke into Xiaguan's house and killed everyone in Xiaguan's house. Xiaguan was protected by two of his confidants and fled overnight. He remembered that in Haojing City, only the crown prince He is Xiaguan's close brother, a best friend that Xiaguan can trust with his life, so he came to Qihouyuan to seek refuge."

"Who would have thought that the official had just been hiding in the Crown Prince's residence for two days when I heard that the palace guards were hunting down the official all over the world."

"That's all. If the official is at fault, then the palace guard will come after the official."

"But the palace guard actually arrested the seven sisters, seven brothers-in-law, and all the elders of the clan. I heard that they were imprisoned and tortured in the secret prison of the palace guard. They suffered a lot."

"The official is terrified. He really doesn't know what this is for."

"Looking at it, more than half a month has passed since this incident, and this year has almost passed. I am thinking about this matter. Can I ask the prince to help him get out of this disaster?"

Yin Ping rolled his eyes when he heard this.

What a great Liu Wu.

Everyone was killed, and he escaped with two guards.

It’s just a matter of escaping, but hiding at a friend’s house, and how can I still spend the New Year in peace and contentment?

Moreover, Yinping could also see that Liu Wu didn't seem to be too sad.

This is the best!

Yinping touched his beard and murmured: "It's not difficult to help you get rid of this trouble. I will personally talk to Yu Changle. After all, I am the emperor's uncle. He wants to give me this face." "

"But, your seven sisters, seven brothers-in-law, and those clan elders, there are so many people."

Yin Ping blinked and looked at Liu Wu.

What he meant was very clear. To let so many people out, the price would have to be increased.

Can the price of saving one person be the same as saving a dozen people?

Liu Wu coughed lightly.

Qi Xuan lowered his voice and said from the side: "Your Majesty, what Brother Liu means is this. As for his seven sisters, they are women, so there is no harm in letting them go. But what about his seven brothers-in-law, you see, Right, there’s no need for them to come out.”

"The secret prison of the Palace Guard, how scary a place is that? In what year did you not kill eighteen hundred unlucky people in there?"

"It doesn't matter if a few more people die."

Yinping poured himself a glass of wine. He took a sip of the wine and gradually figured out the taste.

He pointed at Liu Wu and said with a smile: "You are...hey, your seven brothers-in-law's family has a lot of wealth?"

Liu Wu smiled and said: "You have a small fortune, you have a small fortune. Ashamed, ashamed!"

Qi Xun laughed at the side and said: "Your Majesty, Brother Liu is very wealthy. He has hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land in Jingufang. His brothers-in-law are not any weaker than him, or even better. So, haha !”

Yinyin clicked his lips.

He looked at Liu Wu, then at Qi Ren, and said softly: "This matter is a bit... unconscionable. Tsk, this king loves money, but a gentleman loves money, so he must get it in a wise way!"

Liu Wu stretched out three fingers.

Yin Ping rolled his eyes: "This king is worth 30%?"

Liu Wu quickly added a finger, and then pointed towards Qi Ren.

Yin Ping looked at Qi Ren, who smiled at Yin Ping.

Yinping nodded with satisfaction and picked up the wine glass: "Hahaha, then, we will be good friends from now on. Come, come, come, drink, drink. Hahaha!"
