Rise From the Humble

"Do you think this is a story novel or a drama? You start by saying so-and-so, you are in danger and I have come to save you, and then you talk nonsense. Do you think you can become famous so easily?! Haha, you want to get promoted and make a fortune? You're stupid! I've seen a lot of people with ideas like yours, and you still want to lie to me! Go, go, don't stand at the door and get in the way." The steward sarcastically mocked Zhou Fangzheng, waving his hands like he was chasing a dog. , driving Zhou Fangzheng out.

"You——" Zhou Fangzheng's face turned red as he was pushed.

"What are you doing? Go ahead." The steward waved his hand as if it was an inconvenience, and then the servant on duty behind the door rolled up his sleeves and "invited" Zhou Fangzheng to the steps.

but.

Zhou Fangzheng finally entered the Yan Mansion, not because he was so eloquent that he persuaded the manager, but because he spent a lot of money to buy a folding fan from He Nian Study.

After getting the folding fan from He Nian's study, the treatment was really different. The steward at the gate of Yan's Mansion seemed to change his face and invited Zhou Fangzheng into Yan's Mansion with a smile.

After Zhou Fangzheng entered Yan's Mansion, he was invited into the waiting room to wait for the summons. Zhou Fang was walking around in the waiting room of Yan's Mansion, and after waiting for about half an hour, Yan Shifan arrived late, picking his teeth with a toothpick while feeling shy.

"The bear paw is delicious today, but it's stuffed with teeth." Yan Shifan picked out the shredded meat before entering the door, rubbed his cheeks with his fat fingers, complained, and turned to the follower with squinted eyes. The servant ordered, "Go and tell the chef, Lao Zhang, that the pair of bear paws sent from the north will be stewed a little more mushy tomorrow."

"Okay, sir, I'll go right away." The attendant nodded and bowed.

"Go away." Yan Shifan laughed and cursed, flicked the toothpick in his hand, clapped his hands, and entered the waiting room with a shy stomach.

"Xiaoguan Zhou Fangzheng has met Lord Yan." Zhou Fangzheng had already trotted to the door before Yan Shifan's feet crossed the threshold, and bowed very humbly.

"Haha, isn't this Mr. Zhou from Ke Dao? Mr. Zhou is such a rare visitor. What kind of wind brought our Mr. Zhou here today?" Yan Shifan glanced at Zhou Fangzheng with squinted eyes and said jokingly.

Faced with Yan Shifan's teasing, Zhou Fangzheng was so cautious that he didn't know how to answer.

Just at this time, there was a "pop" sound, and then an indescribable stench filled the air.

It stinks.

Zhou Fangzheng covered his nose subconsciously.

There were only two people in the room. Zhou Fangzheng knew that the fart was not caused by him, so the answer couldn't be more obvious - this stinky fart was caused by Yan Shifan.

It would be unrealistic to pretend that he didn't hear it. The sound just now was too loud, and he covered his nose again. Now it's unrealistic to pretend that he didn't hear it.

But

If he covered his nose, would Yan Shifan think that he was mocking him? ! Last month, he finally found his way to the Yan Mansion by chance. If he was hated by Yan Shifan because of such a trivial matter, wouldn't he have to lose his path to success?

what to do?

what to do?

In a hurry, Zhou Fangzheng suddenly had an idea. He turned his hands into a rub, rubbed his nose, and took two deep breaths. Well, his voice was a little rough, but Zhou Fang looked very drunk on the front, "Hey, why?" Is there a strange smell?"

After such an emergency response, Zhou Fangzheng was very proud of his quick wit.

Yan Shifan glanced at Zhou Fangzheng in a funny way, looking at his complimenting face, and knew in his heart that Zhou Fangzheng was complimenting himself. However, seeing Zhou Fangzheng with such a standard Chinese character face, but making such a flattering and flattering expression, the contrast was so great that Yan Shifan couldn't help but feel a bad taste, so he deliberately frowned, pretending to look unfazed. He opened his mouth and said, "Farts don't stink. According to Dr. Wang, it means that the person who farts has a disease in his lungs. Doesn't that mean that I have a disease in my lungs?"

Zhou Fangzheng looked very embarrassed when he heard this. This was a flattery and a slap on the horse's leg. He quickly added, "Sir Yan, let me taste it carefully. Don't tell me, it really stinks."

"Hahahaha~~"

When Yan Shifan heard this, he laughed with joy.

At this time, Zhou Fangzheng understood that whether he had a smelly fart, a bad heart or something, he was deliberately teasing himself, so he blushed and felt extremely embarrassed.

"Haha, I wonder why Mr. Zhou is here today?" After Yan Shifan smiled, he got back to business and asked with squinted eyes.

Hearing Yan Shifan's question, Zhou Fangzheng came back from his embarrassment and was refreshed. He looked up at Yan Shifan and said seriously, "Sir, I have something very important to report to Mr. Yan Ge today." and Master Yan.”

"What's so important? Haha." Yan Shifan couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "What can be called such a big thing? I still need to report it to my father. Come and let me hear it."

"Someone plans to impeach Mr. Yan Ge in the next two days." Zhou Fangzheng looked at Yan Shifan and replied word by word.

"Someone wants to impeach my father again?! Haha~ Who is it?" Yan Shifan laughed when he heard this and didn't take it seriously. There have been many officials impeaching the old man during this period, one popping up every few days, and finally he didn't It’s all self-inflicted, no exceptions.

"Yang Jisheng." Zhou Fangzheng replied.

"Yang Jisheng?" Yan Shifan was stunned for a moment and turned to Zhou Fangzheng suspiciously.

Yang Jisheng wants to impeach the old man? !

When Yan Shifan heard the news, he felt a little unbelievable. Yang Jisheng was promoted by the old man in an unusual way. When Yang Jisheng impeached Qiu Luan, he was imprisoned and demoted to Didao. It was the old man who suggested that the Holy Emperor re-appoint Yang Jisheng. Then it was the old man who led Yang Jisheng's move throughout the year, from county magistrate to head of the Nanjing Military Department, and then to Nanjing Military Department member Wai Lang. Then he was transferred to the capital to serve as a doctor in the Military Selection Department of the Ministry of War. The old man told himself more than once that he intended to make Yang Jisheng a confidant, although he did not think highly of Yang Jisheng.

However, the old man promoted Yang Jisheng in such an unconventional way, and the man surnamed Yang was transferred to the capital only two months ago, so he is about to impeach the old man? !

Yan Shifan felt a little incredible after hearing this.

The position of doctor in the martial arts selection department of the Ministry of War in Beijing, how many people are trying to get into it...

The old man also wanted to develop Yang Jisheng as a confidant, but he immediately impeached you.

"Yes, it's Yang Jisheng. It's absolutely true. Yang Jisheng invited me to his house last night. He said he had a wonderful article that we could share. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a memorial to impeach the elder. I spent the whole night with him last night. , took the opportunity to write down the memorial, and just came out of Yang Jisheng's house." Zhou Fangzheng replied as if he was taking credit.
