Chapter 128: It's All Worth It!

A good public trial turned into a victorious meeting, and the county hall became a venue for celebration.

That Zhang Zhixian is worthy of being a powerful person who can be the magistrate of Jingxian County in Nanjing. Almost instantly, he adjusted his mood, got up and walked down the hall with the big case, and greeted the three new imperial examination people with a smile on his face.

"Today's lobby, even the three people in the middle of the line are really a good story in this county, it can be seen that the national dynasty is prosperous, and I am out of Shangyuan County!" At this moment, Zhang Zhixian is full of spring breeze, and regards the three of them as treasures of distinguished guests, and there is no trace of hostility between words and deeds. "This official is going to play the name of the imperial court, and the monument will be used to highlight this matter, and encourage me to go to the Yuan Dynasty to make progress!"

After speaking, he enthusiastically invited the three new imperial examination people, Zhao Hao and others to the flower hall for tea, and then called the depressed Liu Yuanwai into his signing room.

"You can't do this." Zhang Zhixian didn't have a good voice when he pressed himself on the stove. "It's time to die, you can admit it."

"I, I can't swallow this breath......" Liu Yuanwai was actually instigated, but he was the president of the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce and the No. 2 person in the Dongting Business Gang, when had he ever suffered this kind of loss?

How can he face the fellow chamber of commerce who are waiting for him to triumph?

"If you can't swallow it, you have to swallow it!" Zhang Zhixian slapped the table, pointed to the flower hall not far away, and said: "There are three people who have been lifted at once!" I dare to favor you now, and when the time comes, I will not be able to eat at the Luming banquet. If you don't get it, you have to lose the black yarn! ”

The Luming Banquet is a celebration banquet held by local governments for new promotions and examiners after the autumn season. Among them, the Luming banquet of Ying Tianfu has the highest standard, in addition to Ying Tianfu Yin, Tixue Yushi, as well as the chief and deputy examiners, and the same examiner, even the bigwigs of various departments will participate.

There's no way, who let the officials in Nanjing be idle? If you have an opportunity, you have to get together.

At the Luming banquet, Zhang Zhixian will also congratulate on behalf of Shangyuan County, and if the three of them are in trouble together, he really can't resist it. What's more, Xie Yuan and Yakui's family backgrounds are so terrifying, I can't say that there are any uncles and elders present, no matter how salty and indifferent he is, he is a small sesame official in Zhang Zhi County, and he has to peel off his skin if he doesn't die!

This is the sorrow of Dangzhi County in Nanjing, there are too many mothers-in-law, and it is difficult for daughters-in-law to do it......

Zhang Zhixian felt sorry for himself for a while, and then softened his tone and persuaded: "You know yourself, which side is responsible for this matter." Even if the official wants to be a strong order, he has to be able to afford a retrial! The official has no ability to cover the lid, so Liu Yuanwai should not force it. ”

"Alas......" Liu Yuanwai looked at the brick cracks on the ground dejectedly, he can sit in this seat, An Neng doesn't know the severity? Fang said astringently: "I withdraw the lawsuit." ”

"That's right!" Zhang Zhixian smiled when he got up, got up and sent him out of the county office: "You businessmen, don't you pay attention to harmony and make money?" Don't fight for nothing. Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and what you lose in the mall, you can win back in the mall. ”

"Okay." Liu Yuan's appearance was drained of strength, and he walked out of the county office in despair, and he didn't ask for the two thousand taels of deposit.

Because he knows that the meat bun beats the dog, how can there be a reason to come back?

~~

Over there, Zhang Zhixian persuaded Liu Yuanwai away, his steps became lighter and lighter, and he rubbed his hands and walked into the flower hall.

I saw several people in the Zhao Mansion sitting or standing, where their eyebrows were fluttering and the sea was blowing.

Zhang Zhixian saw at a glance that only Zhao Hao's father and son were sitting there, and the other three were standing aside.

Tang Youde is just a businessman, but Xinke Xie Yuan and Yakui, the two sons of the family, actually stood beside the yellow-mouthed boy on the left and right, competing to flatter him.

This made Zhang Zhixian puzzled, but at this moment, it was obviously not the time to think about this, and it was the right thing to do to repair the relationship with the Zhao family as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, he put on the most sincere smile and walked in and said, "Mr. Shi is polite. ”

Seeing the dignity of a county, how can the three new imperial examination people be trusted? Hurriedly got up and hugged his fists to return the salute, and said, "Mr. Shi doesn't dare to be a person, I have seen my predecessors in my later life." ”

"The four of you and I are really kind brothers." But I heard Zhang Zhixian say affectionately: "The chief examiner of your subject, Wang Nangong, was the ...... of the foolish brother when he was in prison in Beijing."

"That's really a brother." The three of them met Zhang Zhixian again.

Zhao Hao looked at him with goosebumps from the side, and all the twists and turns can be hooked, and it is really difficult for the old county order.

It's just that when it was Zhao Hao's turn next, the old county order was embarrassed......

It is said that if he recognizes his brother, he should perform a junior salute to the master of his brother. But fortunately, the other party is still the son of another brother, and it is even inside and out.

In the end, everyone decided to intersect with each other, Zhao Hao called him 'old-timer', and he called Zhao Hao 'Zhao Friend'......

After some politeness, everyone sat down again, and Zhang Zhixian told him about persuading Liu Yuanwai to retire, which naturally added oil and vinegar and boasted about himself.

"Then I have to thank the old-timers for handling it fairly." Zhao Hao naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to be angry with the respect of a county...... Caijiaxiang and Xiaocang Mountain are all under the rule of others. He also smiled and reciprocated: "As old-timed people, we naturally obey our orders." ”

Zhang Zhixian said in his heart, this is not the time for you to hide in the mountains and not come out. But he was also happy to get off the donkey, so he smiled and said: "I should have set up a banquet to celebrate the three brothers, but I want to come to your mansion and wait to go back to celebrate, so it will be difficult for the foolish brother to be strong, so let's prepare wine and set up a banquet another day." ”

As he spoke, the subordinate brought two plates of silver ingots, and Zhang Zhixian said: "A little congratulatory gift is not a tribute." ”

Looking at the twenty-one official silver ingots, there are ten on a plate, but Zhao Hao has lost his former joy.

Thinking of the beginning, the two taels of silver came out of the water, but it was only half a year ago.

Alas, the diminishing marginal benefits are so terrible......

However, this is a normal human relationship, and if you don't accept it, it will be unkind, but it will ruin the relationship.

Zhao Hao got up and smiled, and everyone said goodbye.

Zhang Zhixian sent them to the gate of the county government all the time, and then waved goodbye reluctantly.

"I'm going to come back!"

~~

There was a crowd of people outside the county yamen, and the people wanted to see where the new science and technology solution was sacred. As soon as they saw Zhao Hao and the others coming out, they squeezed forward vigorously.

Fortunately, the men of Caijia Lane are mighty and majestic, and they have long been lined up hand in hand, from the yamen to the wall, forming two human walls. Shut out the people who were watching the excitement.

Under the wall, four sedan chairs have already been prepared, dozens of sturdy men are dressed in new clothes, some are carrying gongs, some are holding Xie Yuan and Yayuan cards, and they are waiting for them to come out excitedly.

As soon as they saw the four people coming out, the sedan chair drivers immediately opened the sedan curtain and respectfully invited the three men to get on the sedan chair. Zhao Hao was going to take a carriage with Tang Fatzi, but he was pulled by the students and stuffed into the second sedan chair, saying that he would not be allowed to come out.

Zhao Hao sat in the four-carried sedan chair with relief, in front of him was his father's sedan chair to open the way, and behind was the sedan chair escort of two students.
