Chapter 613: Guest (Medium)

Don't look at Yang Feng has been in the Ming Dynasty for so long, but it is the first time that he has been a guest at someone else's house, so he is still very unfamiliar with this kind of etiquette.

According to the etiquette and rules of the Ming Dynasty, if Yang Feng was a formal guest like this, it was best for Yang Feng to bring his wife to the banquet together, but Hai Lanzhu was now far away in Fujian, but he couldn't come with him.

What the...... Bring Zheng Toniang with you? Believe me, if anyone travels to ancient times and takes the concubine to the banquet when they are guests, the host will definitely turn his face with you at the first time, and he will not take such a bully.

Because in a formal setting, if you do this, the meaning is no less than pointing at the owner's face and scolding him for being raised by a dog and a mother. Of course, if you go somewhere to drink flower wine in private, it's a different matter.

greeted Cui Chengxiu and the family members behind him one by one, and Yang Feng walked into the door side by side with him.

It's just that Yang Feng muttered in his heart while walking, Cui Chengxiu's enthusiasm tonight is not ordinary, he actually led his family members to come out and greet him, according to the saying of this era, it is called the good of the family, this etiquette is very heavy, and I don't know what kind of medicine this guy sells in the gourd.

After the two walked to the inner courtyard, Yang Feng saw a stone tablet standing on the left side of the inner courtyard, with a sentence engraved on it, "Attacking heresy is also harmful." ”

Looking at the above sentence, Yang Feng stopped and looked at Cui Chengxiu with some surprise: "Lord Cui is worthy of being the secretary of the military department, if it is a decision to kill!"

Cui Chengxiu blushed and arched his hand: "I'm ashamed, but the lower official got an axe in front of the Hou Ye, and this monument was erected by the lower official not long ago." ”

The words on the stele are from the Analects of the Analects and Politics.

There are also few murderous sentences in the Analects, which means to attack heresy and return to justice, to attack different academic sects, and to prevent them from legally existing, and their speech will be self-defeating.

What do you think? It doesn't seem like there's the kind of Christian sect where you can only believe in me, and everyone else is all spicy chicken.

In fact, this is also the consistent purpose of the Donglin Party, but I didn't expect it to be written by Cui Chengxiu as an inscription and stood at the door, it seems that this guy is determined to fight with the Donglin Party. However, in front of Yang Feng, the marquis with great achievements, Cui Chengxiu never dared to accept the evaluation of "killing and deciding".

Soon after the banquet began, a group of dancing girls came forward to perform, and there were even singers singing unknown songs softly on the side, watching the graceful figures of the dancing girls flying in front of them, and there was a feeling of small flames.

It can be seen that Cui Chengxiu has put a lot of effort into today's banquet, and these more than ten dancing girls are first-class even if they are pulled to the Qinhuai River, but they have become a forbidden place for Cui Chengxiu to enjoy alone, which shows that the outside world's accusations against Cui Chengxiu are really not wrong.

While Yang Feng was thinking, Cui Chengxiu was also observing him.

To be honest, with Yang Feng's current name, there are very few people in the entire Ming officialdom who don't know about him. As his popularity has risen, there will naturally be more people who have studied him, and in the eyes of many people, Yang Feng, the richest in the Ming Dynasty, has a heavy army and is the most trusted Jiang Ninghou of today, although he is decisive in killing and ruthless to the enemy, he is not without weaknesses.

And his biggest weakness is his preference for women, which is known from the women in his house. Like Zheng Tuniang and Xianniang, the concubines from Qinhuaihe, not to mention, this guy even included Hai Lanzhu, Zhezhe and Da Yu'er, the three nieces and nephews, into the room, among which Zhezhe and Da Yu'er had married and had daughters before, from this point of view, this guy's taste is still very special.

After learning this, it was not that no one thought of bribing or stumbling Yang Feng through this aspect, but when they wanted to implement it, they felt that it was difficult.

First of all, the biggest difference between Yang Feng and others is that he has many enemies, so many that they are almost all over the Manchu Dynasty.

Contrary to the enemies all over the government and the opposition, he has very few friends, in addition to having a close relationship with the emperor Laozi, the officials who can talk to him or have a good relationship with him can almost be counted on two hands, and these people who have a good relationship with Yang Feng cannot surrender their identities and do things like sending women.

This is like one or two martial arts masters, although a person knows where the other party's cover door is, as long as he stabs the cover door, he can knock the other party down. But the other party wrapped a thick iron plate around the door, which made people stare dryly, not to mention how uncomfortable this feeling was.

Now Cui Chengxiu saw Yang Feng staring at these dancing girls in the hall thoughtfully, and couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, and asked with a smile: "Master Hou, what do you think of these dancing girls?" ”

Yang Feng nodded, took a sip of wine from his wine glass, and then nodded and said, "Yes, singing well and dancing well, it is indeed rare to see." ”

Cui Chengxiu was even happier in her heart, and hurriedly said: "These singers and dancing girls were all collected by the lower officials in the past, and it is rare for the Hou Ye to like them, and the lower officials will order these people to be sent to the Hou Mansion later, hoping that the Hou Ye will not refuse." ”

"Ahem......"

Yang Feng, who didn't finish a sip of wine, spit out the wine in his mouth, and some of the wine was choked, and he coughed for a while.

Yang Feng, who eased up after a while, smiled bitterly and waved his hand again and again: "Lord Cui has a heart, but your kindness Benhou has a heart, Benhou will not stay in the capital for long before returning to Fujian, if you bring these women back to the Hou Mansion, wouldn't it hurt them?" It's okay not to mention it. ”

Cui Chengxiu thought that this was just Yang Feng's excuse, and continued: "Don't worry, Hou Ye, these singers and dancing girls have been trained by special personnel, and they have never served others in the past. ”

"Forget it, letting them go to the Hou Mansion can only harm them, but Ben Hou can't be so selfish." Yang Feng waved his hand, "This matter is over, and I will not mention it again." ”

Seeing Yang Feng's resolute expression, Cui Chengxiu believed that he was really prevaricating, and couldn't help but be curious. This Yang Feng even dared to rob the women of Huang Taiji, and even the three aunts and nephews ate them all, and even the concubines who are now in the capital are all from Qin Huaihe, looking at his past style, he should be a person who likes women, why don't he even want to give it to him, is it ...... Is he still wary of me?

"Right...... Definitely. ”

Cui Chengxiu compares his heart to his heart, and if he were himself, he probably wouldn't easily accept the singer sent by others, especially a singer sent by someone from a different camp a few days ago. He is still like this, let alone Yang Feng, if Yang Feng is really the kind of person who can't walk when he sees a woman, he can't get to this point today.
