Cui Geng, who came to know, was the old Xiangye Su Wei, who was recently demoted to the history of Meizhou Thorn.

To be honest, although Su Wei has two photos, Cui Geng has no bad impression of Old Man Su.

First of all, Su Wei upheld the spirit of ambiguity in everything and did not take the initiative to offend him. Secondly, when he was in the palace raiding Fangyuan, if it weren't for Old Man Su who couldn't help laughing at his joke, it would have been a bad end that day.

Finally, and most importantly, this Su Moleng is the ancestor of the great writer Su Shi in later generations, and he didn't want to be an enemy of him in the first place.

Cui Geng changed his mind slightly, then took Feng Changqing and the others to turn over and dismount, and said, "Xiaguan Cui Geng, see Su Xiangye!" ”

"Master Cui, please hurry up, the old man can't stand your big gift." Su Wei hurriedly clasped his hand and said, "Hey, what kind of master, the old man, the history of Meizhou Thorn, is now the same as Erlang, and you are the fourth grade of the official residence." I don't take advantage of Erlang, why don't we talk about it in the future? "

"Absolutely not, it's really a tormenting boy."

Just based on Old Man Su's age, Cui Geng can't agree to come down. In the end, the two agreed that regardless of the official rank, the two directly discussed from Cui Yuanzong, and Cui Geng served the old man Su with the gift of his son and nephew.

Immediately, the two teams merged into one team and moved on.

Su Weiwei's official is never very honest, and this time he was relegated to Meizhou, bringing a lot of big bags and small bags, and there are nearly 30 big cars alone. Therefore, the whole team couldn't go fast, so they had to move forward.

Cui Geng and Su Wei walked side by side, seeing that Old Man Su was full of red light, with a high level of interest, without any loneliness of being degraded, and then thinking that he was so enthusiastic about himself, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.

Cui Geng asked, "Old Man Su, what you did in the Raiding Fang Courtyard that day shouldn't have been intentional?"

Su Wei twisted his silver hair in his hand, and said with a chuckle: "Hehe, I really said it to Erlang, old man, I really did it on purpose." Well, not only to offend Erzhang, but also not to let Erzhang feel that the old man intends to be invincible with him, this sense of proportion is not easy to grasp, thank you Erlang for giving the old man such a good opportunity! ”

Cui Geng was puzzled: "Can that kid ask you, "Why?"

Su Wei sighed lightly and said, "Don't tell Erlang that the old man is not easy to do." You see that Di Xiang is deeply trusted by His Majesty, not to mention, he is also known for his uprightness. Wei Yuanzhong is familiar with the military, Wei Juyuan is good at managing finances, only the old man and Li Qiao...... Hehe, if you say it well, you are good at literature, and if you don't say it well, you are good at swatting horses. "

When Cui Geng heard this, he was quite disapproving, and secretly thought, you have been sloping all your life, what are you pretending to be a chaste martyr now?

Su Wei seemed to see what he was thinking, and continued to explain: "It's not that the old man is not unhappy to continue to slap the horse, but this slap is gradually getting worse. For example, in March this year, it snowed heavily. At that time, I said that this is snow falling from the sky, indicating the prosperity of my Great Zhou. But the palace attendant King Shi said that March is the time when everything is recovering, and the heavy snow in the sky will make everything freeze to death, what kind of auspicious omen? In the end, he asked me rhetorically, if the snow in March is an auspicious omen, then what is the snow in the moon? At that time, I was dumbfounded. "

After a pause, he added hatefully: "A few days later, someone offered a three-legged ox, I said it was a good omen, and the king said again, when the sky is reversed, it is a demon, and the earth is a monster, which is a great omen." Grandma's, in the end, His Majesty really believed him. You said that this old lady doesn't have a clear idea, do you like Xiangrui or not? Give me an accurate word, it's easy to say anything, what's going on now? Forget it, my surname Su won't serve this time. ”

Now that Su Wei has been demoted, he is surrounded by his own people, and he is in a relaxed mood, so he directly calls Wu Zetian an old lady.

Cui Geng took the opportunity to tease: "Your old man is called an ambiguous hand, why can't you stand being so ambiguous by Your Majesty?"

"It's not just that." Su Wei sighed and continued: "The old man is so old, he has only a few days to live, and he is the third grandson of the Zhang brothers all day long, why bother? It's better to let out a thorn and take care of the whole day. ”

Speaking of this, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and said: "By the way, the old man went to Meizhou to support the elderly, and he was too lazy to fight with those local forces. ”

"Boy, do your best."

Of course, Cui Geng understood what Su Wei meant, although Su Wei retired from the post of prime minister, he had no prestige, and he was afraid that the local forces would go against him. However, Cui Geng, the Jiannan Provincial Inspector, investigated corrupt officials and corrupt officials, which had a strong deterrent effect on local officials.

Of course, Cui Geng is also happy to cooperate, Jiannan Road is a big problem, if he goes directly to Chengdu and faces the governor of Yizhou, there is a huge difference in strength, and the odds of winning are really not big. If you can enter Meizhou, through the Meizhou officialdom, and hear the reality of the officialdom of Jiannan Road, you will get twice the result with half the effort.

……

……

The convoy continued to move forward, seeing that the red sun was about to fall in the west, Su Wei suggested: "Why don't we rest in Zhangzhuangyi tonight?" Don't look at the name of this post station is not very loud, but it is the largest post station within a radius of 100 miles, and most officials who come and go to Luoyang settle here. "

Cui Geng had nothing to do with this, and said, "The kid listens to the old man."

After walking for a while, I saw the green willows in front of me, the red walls and green tiles, clean and tidy, and a good pavilion.

Cui Geng and the others stepped forward and handed over the confession.

The two fourth-grade officials are already quite small, not to mention that Su Wei is still an old prime minister who has just been degraded. The prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty has always been like a marquee, changing back and forth, maybe when the taste of Su will reappear. Therefore, Zhang Zhuangyi's post is very warm and warm. arranged Cui Geng and Su Wei to the best courtyard in Zhangzhuangyi.

"Stinky boy, you eat me and drink mine, you don't work hard, but you run to the signing room to hide lazily, your conscience is really eaten by dogs. I'm going to beat you to death today! ”

"Oh, Lord Yizheng, don't fight. The villain just walked away for a while, and if he didn't take an example, wouldn't he be an example? ”

"Why not? Okay, you kid can still drag the text? It seems that this beating has not been enough! "

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

The sound of whipping came, mixed with bursts of howls and begging for mercy, which made Cui Geng upset.

Stubborn ~ ~

Cui Geng pushed open the door and walked over following the voice, and after a while, he saw that it was Zhang Zhuangyi's Suo Yong, who was whipping a man in a man's costume.

The man was in his early twenties, but he was thin and small, and his stature was the same as that of a child of thirteen or fourteen years old, and he kept screaming and screaming, which was very pitiful.

Cui Geng couldn't see it, coughed lightly, and said, "Don't fight!" ”

Suo Yong turned his head and saw that it was Cui Geng, so he quickly stopped, stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, the villain taught the guy a lesson and disturbed Lord Cui, and I hope Lord Cui will forgive me."

"Well, it's easy to say, it's easy to say. This official is asking you, what happened to this guy, you beat him so badly? ”

"The villain didn't beat him." Suo Zheng smiled bitterly: "I'm just making a show and teaching him a lesson, and I don't use much strength at all." ”

After a slight pause, he sighed again: "This guy's name is Xu Yuanqing, and he wasn't from our Zhang Zhuangyi." Last winter, he almost froze to death in front of the post house, but the villain kindly saved him. At that time, he said that his hometown had been hit by a disaster and he had no livelihood, and begged me to take him in. I relented for a moment and left him as a buddy. He's small and has little strength, he doesn't do much work, and he always goes to the signing room to hide lazily, so I can't help it! ”

Cui Geng looked at Xu Yuanqing and said, "What you guys are saying is true?"

Xu Yuanqing knelt down, kowtowed and said, "It's true, but there is one thing he didn't say, I, a guy, don't take care of food and housing, and don't get paid." Yes, the villain sometimes hides and is lazy, but he is definitely worthy of these meals. ”

Suo Yong said angrily: "Oh, you kid is still reasonable? I'm beating you to death! ”

"Stop!"

Seeing that Suo Yong was about to do it again, Cui Geng hurriedly stopped him and said, "In this way, this official looks at you, one is forced to work without a living, and the other is greedy for free labor, and he is not greedy enough." Well, who let me catch up? Xu Yuanqing, the official will give you five taels of gold, you go to make a small deal, don't mess around in Zhangzhuangyi. ”

Five taels of gold is fifty yuan, which is enough for Xu Yuanqing to make a small business to make a living. But what made Cui Geng a little strange was that he didn't show much gratitude.

On the contrary, Xu Yuanqing thought about it for a while, then kowtowed, and said: "Thank you, little one, Master Cui, you cherish the old and the poor so much, you will definitely be able to marquis Wandai, and have many sons and grandchildren." But ......"

"Huh? How? ”

"No matter what you say, Lord Suo is also a lifesaver for me. It's a busy time for the inn, and I'll have to wait until the month is over before I leave. ”

Cui Geng bowed his head slightly and said: "Cheng, it's rare that you have this heart, and the official won't stop you." ”

This is a trivial matter, Cui Geng just helped the guy easily, and he didn't take it to heart.

After going back, it didn't take much effort, and it was time for dinner.

The wine and food in Zhangzhuang Post House are not bad, Cui Geng and Su Wei sat together, drank heartily, and talked loudly.

Su Wei is both literary and erudite; Cui Geng's whimsical ideas after a lot, and there are countless famous articles to copy, after this conversation, both of them have a sense of hating each other.

However, at this time----

Knock knock~~

There was a soft knock on the door.

"What's the matter?" Cui Geng asked.

"The villain asks to be seen."

"Come in."

"Yes."

Suo Yong pushed the door in, with a smile on his face, and said, "I'm really sorry, can the two adults pity the poor villain and take a step higher?"

Bang~~

Hearing this, Cui Geng immediately put down his chopsticks, his face was slightly gloomy, and he said coldly: "What's the matter?" Are you letting this official and Su Xiangye ...... Move a place? ”
