Rise From the Humble

When Zhu Pingan said goodbye to Yang Jisheng from Fusi, Beizhen, Luo Longwen and Ouyang Zishi were drinking in Luofu.

Although Luo Longwen's official position is not high, his mansion is magnificent and extraordinary. Even for officials who are three or five levels higher than him, their mansions pale in comparison with Luo Mansion.

Luo Longwen is so wealthy. On the one hand, it is because Luo Longwen is Yan Shifan's number one henchman and can make a lot of wealth by using the power of the Yan Party. On the other hand, it is also because he is a master of ink making and can almost be regarded as the top group of people in the ink making industry. One of them, he was especially good at using tung oil fumes to make the luxurious high-grade ink called "Jiu Ci Xuan Xiang". It was known as "hard as stone, patterned like rhinoceros, black as lacquer, and one snail is worth ten thousand dollars". In the current dynasty, , this kind of ink is worth more than gold, and most people can't buy it yet.

Therefore, Luo Longwen didn't need much money to build the mansion so beyond the specifications and magnificent.

Even if Luo Mansion went beyond the regulations, no one dared to impeach and report given the relationship between Luo Longwen and Yan Shifan.

Normally, Luo Longwen would entertain close friends like Ouyang Zishi in the main hall or study of Luo Mansion.

but

Today, the place where Luo Longwen and Ouyang Zishi drank was a remote guest room in Luo Mansion, which was very remote and remote.

Because at this moment, Yan Shifan was studying the "Nei Jing" with Luo Longwen's concubine and another well-known cross-dressing scholar in the Yan Party circle, "discussing" and "studying" the "Yin and Yang Harmony" in it.

In order to avoid disturbing Yan Shifan's elegant mood, Luo Longwen took the initiative to take Ouyang Zishi to the most remote guest room in the mansion for a drink.

This is the most remote place in Luofu, the farthest place from the study.

"Haha, congratulations to Brother Luo. My uncle liked the "Autobiography" that Brother Luo dedicated to my uncle very much. Brother Donglou said that during the inspection in Beijing this year, he would mention Brother Luo's official position. My uncle nodded and agreed. Woolen cloth."

Ouyang Zishi's face flushed after drinking, he raised a glass of wine and paid homage to Luo Longwen.

This "Autobiography" is an authentic work by Huai Su, a calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty. Luo Wenlong bought it from Wen Zhengming for a thousand taels of silver and a snail and nine gifts of Xuanxiang.

"Really?" Luo Longwen was overjoyed. Hearing the news revealed by Ouyang Zishi, he was holding a wine glass and his whole body was floating. "Hahaha, then I can borrow Zishi's good words and wait until the good news comes to an end." It’s decided, brother, I will treat you well.”

"Haha, Brother Luo, why are you so polite?"

Ouyang Zishi had a smile on his face, but he curled his lips in disapproval in his heart, "Who cares about your meal? What I care about is the scholar in your house dressed as a woman."

In fact, Ouyang Zishi has always been a person with a normal physical orientation, and he sneered at Long Yang's kindness. However, when he met the famous cross-dressing scholar in Luo Longwen's house, he had that different kind of style and other kind. The feeling suddenly touched Ouyang Zishi's heartstrings, and an uncontrollable thought became more and more intense in Ouyang Zishi's mind...

"Haha, it's not polite to come back but not return. Zishi brought me good news, and I will also reveal the good news to Zishi."

Luo Wenlong took the wine bottle and poured a glass of wine for Ouyang Zishi, and said to Ouyang Zishi with a smile like a flower.

"Good news? Could it be that Brother Luo is willing to give up his love..." Ouyang Zishi has been thinking about the female scholar in Luo Wenlong's backyard. When he heard Luo Wenlong said he had good news for him, he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. He was so excited that he almost He didn't say what was in his heart to Tu Luzui, but at the critical moment, Ouyang Zishi thought of Luo Longwen's legendary story of a macho man that had spread throughout the capital, and Juhua couldn't help but tightened up and stopped his mouth in time.

"Severing your love? Oh, haha, Zishi has taken a liking to something in my house. Just ask, it's my honor, brother..."

Luo Longwen looked at his little brother Ouyang Zishi who was hesitant to speak and was embarrassed to speak. He couldn't help but said with a generous smile. He didn't realize at all that the little brother opposite him not only didn't want to take anything from his house, but also wanted to give it to him. Get yourself a brightly colored and environmentally friendly hat.

"I'm attracted to it."

When Ouyang Zishi said this, he paused and twitched his lips in his heart, "I have fallen in love with the scholar dressed as a woman in your back house. Of course, the tight anus told Ouyang Zishi that this must not be said."

"Haha, Zishi, what's our relationship? Don't be embarrassed. As long as it's my brother's and you like it, it's just four words, just say it." Luo Longwen patted Ouyang Zishi's shoulder enthusiastically, extremely generous. .

Ouyang Zishi is Yan Shifan's younger cousin, and Ouyang Zishi's father is Yan Song's brother-in-law. In addition, Yan Song intends to betroth his daughter to Ouyang Zishi. Although there are some changes now, Miss Yan Er does not agree, but now they are not all parents. It's the fate of the matchmaker and the words of the matchmaker. Therefore, Luo Longwen deliberately made a good relationship with Ouyang Zishi.

"Haha, I saw Brother Luo in your study."

Ouyang Zishi smiled when he said this and continued, "That's the 'Nine Gifts of Mysterious Fragrance' collected by the snail."

Of course, what Ouyang Zishi was really thinking at this moment was: I have taken a liking to the female scholar in your study, Brother Luo, who is discussing the "Nei Jing" and "Yin and Yang Harmony" with his cousin in the east building.

"Hey! Zishi is so hard to say, what did I think it was? It turned out to be the top-grade conch 'Nine Gifts of Mysterious Fragrance'. This ink is priceless to others, but what do I, Luo Longwen, do? I am a maker. Ink. You can have as much of this top-quality 'Nine Gifts of Mysterious Fragrance' as you want. When you leave, take the snail with you. After a while, I will make another batch, select the best ones, and give them to you for ten Luo Ba Luo."

Luo Longwen waved his hand, extremely bold.

"Thank you, Brother Luo." Ouyang Zishi thanked him.

"Zishi, why are you so polite to me? Oh, by the way, I almost forgot, I just said I have good news to tell you." Luo Longwen and Ouyang Zishi exchanged glasses, and after clinking one drink, they remembered the topic just now , then spoke.

"What's the good news?" Ouyang Zishi asked.

"Hehe, Zhu Ping'an is going to be in bad luck." Luo Longwen picked up the wine glass, squinted his eyes, and smiled mysteriously.

"real?"

When Ouyang Zishi heard this, his excited eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had heard the biggest happy event in the world.

"Hehe, let me tell you, don't spread this news to the outside world. We just need to know it in our hearts. Otherwise, when he is unlucky, people will say that the Prime Minister and Brother Donglou are petty and retaliatory."

Luo Longwen put his hand on Ouyang Zishi's shoulder, winked, and smiled with gloating on his face.

"Brother Luo, don't worry. If it comes from Brother Luo's mouth and reaches my ears, it will never be spread to other people." Ouyang Zishi urged.

"You know about Yang Jisheng's impeachment of the prime minister," Luo Longwen said.

"Of course I know that." Ouyang Zishi nodded, and then suddenly realized, he suddenly looked up at Luo Longwen, and asked with joy and excitement, "Could it be that Zhu Pingan also participated in the signature? Yang Jisheng was also If he is put in jail, then Zhu Pingan will also be put in jail."

Luo Longwen slowly shook his head, "He didn't sign."

When Ouyang Zishi heard this, the excited fire in his eyes extinguished, like an eggplant beaten by frost, and he muttered unhappily, "He didn't sign, what did you say?"

"Although Zhu Ping'an did not sign his name, he read the draft of Yang Jisheng's memorial before Yang Jisheng impeached the Prime Minister and gave Yang Jisheng two opinions. Fortunately, Yang Jisheng did not listen to him, otherwise the Prime Minister would be in big trouble this time He dared to plot evil against the prime minister. Hehe, tell me, Zhu Pingan is going to be in bad luck." Luo Longwen said with a sinister smile as he narrowed his eyes.
