Zhang Qi said: "Why,."

Wu said: "Oh, he dares to go against Xu Ge Lao, why don't you dare." Zhang Qi rolled his eyes: "I, how big an official I am, do I have the money?" Wu said: "Zhao, dare to go against Xu Ge, it means that people have this money, how about the Xu family, he is also a pit Yan Songfa's family, he is not afraid that others will come to pit him, now that he is calm, he is actually afraid in his heart, otherwise let you ask Chang Sihao what he is doing." Zhang Qi groaned: "The surname Chang has that momentum but also doesn't have that strength, Xu Ge Lao's foundation is not something he can move if he wants to." Wu said: "Feng Shui takes turns, the emperor can be changed, don't say that he is a first assistant, don't you still understand the current situation, didn't I say you, your ability to stay inside and outside the court, where does it seem, when did the Xu family put it in their eyes again, why are they looking for you to do this now, doesn't it mean that there are no people around them who are available." ”

Zhang Qi was very heartwarming when he heard this, but his brain jumped a few times, and he also felt that it made sense, and said: "They don't want to show the dew, and there are." ”

Wu said: "That's not what I said, now even the old Aunt Song on the other side of the door knows [Xianmo: The wonder is to pull another aunt, like a woman who is used to gossiping], Xu Ge is old and can't even climb the mountain, let Tan Lun go on his back, and he was angry again, and he fell ill when he came back, and he was afraid that he would not have a few days to live [Xianmo: The nonsense is true, the market originally listened to the wind and rain]. Zhang Qi said in disgust: "She is a half-old lady, what do she know." Wu said: "Don't say this, which thing in this world is true [Xianmo: Only this sentence is true, laugh,], it has been passed on nine ears, and the fake is not false, and the important thing is not true or false, but what people think, [Xianmo: Men often say that women love to pull their wives' tongues, Talking about gossip, in fact, the military politics that I get together to talk about is a little true, the world is the same thing, understand this, just chat for fun every day, whose business is related to you, why really go to the heart, so women are not stupid to talk about gossip, and forget it after a happy time, men are really stupid when they are blind and serious," Zhang Qi said anxiously: "What's the use of you saying this, but let's talk about what I should do now." ”

Wu thought for a while, and said: "Didn't he let you go, you just go, just touch the situation over there, now this water is fast, it is good to be able to take an extra sampan to step on, people are hard to say, who knows which cloud has rain." ”

Zhang Qi pondered and said: "Yes, I have set up this line, Lao Xu can't blame me if he wants to, they let me go by themselves." ”

Wu said: "That's right, in my opinion, the momentum of this surname Chang is good, the emperor is heavy on the military, and he is recognized as the royal brother, the diligent call of the south and the north, according to my opinion, this person is red, and it is far from purple, Xu Ge Lao's side, the competent people have been arranged, the main thing is to seek stability, he has to climb this tower to which year is the head, even if he climbs almost, he should fall, rather for the head of the chicken, not for the queen of the cow, the surname Chang is ambitious, capable, around is the lack of people to employ people, follow him, the upstart, more hopeful, [ Xianmo: Workplace mantra, don't talk to the boss, you have to follow the second, why, Jia Xu's so-called "he is weak, he must take me first", and after chasing the boss's ass, he will fall into the reputation of a villain, and the second, you don't need to confess, he first defends you, the boss wants to avoid suspicion, so he refuses to do it,]"

Zhang Qi couldn't help nodding, and a smile appeared on his face again: "Ho, it was a blessing for you to persuade me to be safe and stable before, but now I'd rather be the head of the chicken than the queen of the cow', and there are a lot of little Jiujiu in your heart." ”

Wu smacked him lightly with a disgusted eye: "Look at you, I let you say everything anyway, who am I for." Then he took his arm and put it against him,

Zhang Qi deliberately moved his head away, and also looked back at her, muttering: "That's hard to say, anyway, you said it when you stepped on two boats, and you don't have this idea in your mind on weekdays, so you can come up with this idea." Wu shook his arms and scolded: "Just like you, you are also a gentleman, who is not better than you, good, I want to raise Han, I want to step on two boats, what's the matter, I'll look for it tomorrow, I'll look for twenty, look for eighteen, I'll go to the grinding yard to find a little white face that sifs white noodles, I, [Xianmo: Good orange, splashed crisply]" Zhang Qi heard her shouting higher and higher, maybe shouting something, hurriedly covered her mouth, and said continuously: "Auntie, mother, my little sweet orange, am I wrong." Knowing that her temper can't be suppressed [Xianmo: Reverse writing about the husband and wife knowing about sex], she apologized at the top, twitched at the bottom, tore off the lady's trouser belt, slipped into the house, climbed on the kang and shook the window, Wu was angry: "A person who kills a thousand knives, come to this set again, you should be a mess, pay me back." "Carrying his pants and twisting his feet, he chased into the house, [Xianmo: There is obviously an abridgement here, what are you doing in the house, send me the whole ......]

Chang Sihao used Xu Weiji to hold a few gatherings in the Hou Mansion and Dongchang Lian, and got acquainted with many officials, but he did not have a deep friendship with everyone, only to Liang Bolong and other celebrities as a cover, talking about books and paintings, tasting drama and talking, and in the blink of an eye into June, in the name of summer, a new round of gatherings was arranged in the Duhug Building, when the lights were first on, the sedan horse and the incense car filled the streets and alleys, and the officials came one after another.

On the third floor, someone pushed the window open a small crack and looked down, Chen Zhibin, who was standing at the back, looked at it and muttered: "Master Hou is doing this, what are you going to do." Qin Juexiang said: "It's not easy to touch the fish if the water is not mixed, according to my guess, Xu Wei's plan is mostly to create a momentum." Chen Zhibin didn't say anything, his eyes were still looking downstairs, as if he didn't quite understand, Qin Juexiang didn't look back at him, and continued: "My eldest brother invited Guo Dugong to have frequent contact with these officials, Xu Jie's side will not be suspicious, once there is suspicion, an investigation will be launched, but my eldest brother and these officials really didn't say anything, even if they go back and report truthfully, I'm afraid they won't be able to win Xu Jie's trust, and they will inevitably be suspected and cleaned up. ”

Chen Zhibin glanced at him and nodded slowly: "The Xu Party is powerful, tight and tight, and it is easy to be spied on, and this is not a clever plan to make them suspicious of themselves, it is a clever plan [Xianmo: The most difficult to prevent out of nothing]...... Ah, Master Hou, they have arrived, let's go down to greet them. ”

At the intersection of the street, under the assistance of the four stalls riding a tall horse, several eight-horse Chinese cars slowly approached, stopped at the entrance of the building, there were waiters who set up a ladder stool, uncovered the curtain, Chang Sihao and Guo Shuronghua drilled out hand in hand, one after the other slowly down, many officials surrounded Shi Li, the two looked around, smiled and responded, the empty car forward, the second car approached, and it was Liang Bolong and Gu Siyi who came down, these two appeared, attracted a lot of good voices, Liang Bolong was full of smiles, and bowed his hand to the four outside, the vehicle continued to continue, and the people who came down behind were famous calligraphers and painters, Qin and chess, Xu Wei is also mixed in,

Qin Juexiang took Chen Zhibin, Shao Fang greeted him with a smile, greeted Guo Shu Ronghua, and greeted the eldest brother, the stars welcomed the group into the building like the moon, the position and seat have already been arranged, everyone has finished seating, Sheng Xiao curls, the skirt is shaking, the banquet officially begins, Xu Wei sits in the corner, holding half a glass of wine in his hand, observing the expressions of the officials, these days, the characters who are often invited have basically become familiar with a lot, occasionally one or two fresh faces, and the behavior is nothing special, Chang Sihao drinks and entertains with Guo Shuronghua and others as usual, and does not mention other affairs.

After looking around, Xu Wei's gaze fell on a person's body,

This person is not tall, with straight eyebrows and a straight nose, three locks of beard, good looks, walking to the east table and the west table with a wine glass, talking to this one, chatting with that, with a smile on his face, Xu Wei called the waiter to mutter a few words, the waiter left for a while and came back, and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Hui's words, that is Zhang Qi Zhang Yushi, I don't know why I had a dislike with the Xu family before, the situation is not very good, and the rest is not very clear." The corners of Xu Wei's mouth were coldly hooked, and he waved it away,

Zhang Qi walked around a few times and saw that no one was willing to answer him, he couldn't help but be a little depressed, sat back in place, and looked at Chang Sihao's table from a distance, talking and laughing, Guo Shu Ronghua swayed amorous, his official position was inconspicuous, he wanted to get close to the past, there was no excuse, no chance, his heart was more and more uncomfortable, so he drank and looked at the stage, only to see that at this time, Liang Bolong and Gu Siyi had a green shirt, a white sleeve dragging, just you were singing alternately one by one, Kunqu opera south tone was thick, murmuring soft, babbling sound, stirred his heart was not irritable, and secretly thought: "The way of the world has really changed, and the girls can also come out to sing [Xianmo: Women were not allowed to go on the high stage in the Ming Dynasty, they were all men pretending to be women, here is dark, but it is not a matter of this time,], it is not a violation of customs, these two lower nine streamers will just hum a few words like this, and they can actually climb the high branches, and sit on an equal footing at the same table with the officials, it is really unreasonable. ”

After singing, everyone applauded and sent the two off the stage, the stage changed its name, only to see Chang Sihao look at it for a while, it didn't seem to be interested, got up and took Liang Bolong to walk around the tables, said a few words everywhere, and had a glass with the officials, he was bold in wine, causing bursts of colorful sounds, seeing that the table was getting closer and closer, Zhang Qi was inexplicably nervous, seeing Chang Sihao holding a glass and greeting everyone, he hurriedly stood up with the people at the table,

After a few polite words, all the officials lit the bottom of their cups, laughed heartily, Chang Sihao seemed to raise his feet to run off the table, his eyes fell on Zhang Qi's face again, and said, "Ouch, this adult is so familiar." Liang Bolong said: "How can Master Hou forget, this Zhang Qi Zhang Yushi once scolded Hu Zongxian at the state banquet in the new year, and quarreled with me for a mile, [Xianmo: The magic is to say that it is not poisonous,] Although Zhang Qi was prepared, it was also quite unnatural, and he said with a wrinkled smile: "The gentleman is harmonious but different, and Mr. Liang's courage and courage are also very admirable." ”

"Well said. Chang Sihao said with a smile: "The imperial court, it has the dignity of the imperial court, and Zhang Yushi is also a person who is dedicated to the country." Everyone agreed yes, and Chang Sihao said: "Mr. Liang, Zhang Yushi, don't keep this little discord between you in mind." Liang Bolong said with a smile: "Master Hou's words are far away, I am a little drama, how dare I be angry with Lord Yushi, not to mention that Lord Zhang is also right to things." Zhang Qi felt a little bit when he heard it, thinking that after all, this play was used to welcoming and sending him, but he was a little self-aware, and he was humble at the moment, and the words were all about some adults who did not remember the mistakes of villains, Chang Sihao was very happy, and toasted him alone.

When the two of them ran off the table, Zhang Qi sat down, feeling that he was being looked down upon, and his heart was a lot brighter [Xianmo: It's decent, it's a big play, it's all about the word decency,],

When the wine was half-drunk, Chang Sihao and Guo Shuronghua's table of people got up and left the box, and at the same time sporadically summoned three or five officials from other tables to accompany them, and they didn't come back for a long time, Zhang Qi felt strange, asked the people around him, and replied that every banquet was like this, probably because Hou Ye and they enjoyed calligraphy and painting alone, and the officials who were summoned to accompany them were different every time. Xianmo: Go decently, don't go naturally want to squeeze in, there is a drill camp, the leader of the workplace eats, suddenly asks you to sit with, this is decent, a meeting, but you can't come, call you up, it is decent, a small matter is related to the honor and disgrace of life, it is the first major event in the officialdom workplace, the bottom staff look at the wind and the elephant, how to look, just look at the details here, but unfortunately the young people don't understand, bury their heads in the work, shoot and provide immediately, half the effort, often thankless,]

After the banquet returned home, Mrs. half a leg crossed on the edge of the pit is knocking melon seeds [Xianmo: homely as seen], seeing him come back, he hurriedly said that the Xu family sent someone to come, and went back when he saw that the person was not there, Zhang Qi knew that Xu Sangongzi probably wanted to ask about the progress, and now told Mrs. about today's situation, Wu Shi pumped his legs and said: "What do I say, the people of this Dongchang are not ordinary, the six cabinet officials are like flowing water, but they are iron-clad camps, whether it is the original Huang Gonggong or the previous Feng Gonggong, they are all bright-minded, The master who is accustomed to seeing the wind and the rudder, although Feng Bao was squeezed out of his post, he maintained the little prince and Li Niangniang in the palace, and brought Li Fang down [Xianmo: The people know it, it can be seen that Feng Bao is scheming, and there are many face-saving things spread everywhere, and now there are pirated books for sale everywhere on the market, either this shady curtain or that inside story, ancient and modern, Guo Dugong is even more human, he can get along so warmly with this Yunzhong Hou, there is no reason. ”

Zhang Qi lowered his head and turned around the house with his hands behind his back like a grinding, stepping on the melon seed pickup horn and the horn sounding, pondering for a long time, and said: "Then this treasure, I will bet on them." ”

Wu said: "This branch has not been caught, just sprinkle the hand of the branch, and you must not fall to death You stupid monkey, Xu Ge Lao has been following for so many years, and this time he promised the official of the Ministry of Industry, and the Hou Ye has not yet scratched the eight characters, what are you in a hurry." Zhang Qi said: "The two boats are unstable, and there must be one heavy and the other light." Wu said: "The mother's family must be maintained, and the in-laws also have to serve, and there is a division of teaching, which is called Shuangqiao is easy to walk, and it is difficult to walk alone. Zhang Qi got on the fire and said: "What mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, it's all your women's set, [Xianmo: Which set is it, it works, it's really stupid,]" Wu pushed him and said: "What kind of women and men, women and children, people are not all the same, don't talk nonsense, hurry up, the third son is still waiting for you, the current official is not as good as the current management, and the person in front of him is serious." ”

Xu Jie's father and son were talking in the study, and heard a report that Zhang Qi was coming, Xu Jie's two sentences of advice for his son to receive, and he avoided behind the screen, Xu Ying postponed Russia for a while, which made people call Zhang Qi into [Xianmo: I didn't write it before, I will write it here, and it is to see him and the other], and when they met, they smiled and said: "Zhang Yushi's game is very smooth." As soon as Zhang Qi heard it, he understood that someone had already reported to him about the banquet, and bowed down and said, "The blessings of the old man and the prince." Xu Ying gave him a seat and said: "Before, we cooperated to release some wind to exaggerate the discord between you and the Xu family, when the surname Chang is employing people, it is natural to gather all available power, and to explain to you and Liang Bolong is the embodiment of this psychology, which shows that he still hopes that you can be used by him." ”

Zhang Qi said with a smile: "How can I say that I am also a person from the elder of the pavilion, if I can abandon the big boat and the small boat, he will not be happy." ”

Xu Ying said: "It's good for the boat to turn around, if you catch up with the wind and rain and the huge waves, the big ship is not as good as the boat insurance, some people, often at this time, Mingli is still watching on the deck, and secretly has made up his mind to jump ship." Zhang Qi's heart twitched, feeling like someone had stripped off his clothes, and hurriedly said: "Hey, the little sampan is so big, those who don't care about their lives have short-sighted eyes, and they are to blame for falling into the sea." ”

Xu Ying nodded with a smile: "Zhang Yushi's vision, I believe it is still very good." Zhang Qi got up, leaned forward and said: "Third master, the surname Chang and Guo Dugong have to find some people to gather alone every time they have a banquet. Xu Ying said with a smile: "We already know about this matter, it's just that he is bluffing, this must be Xu Wei's strategy, which is intended to make us suspicious of each other and mess up our own positions [Xianmo: Xu Jie's vision is not false, a literary fight, it must be that both sides know each other's roots, understand each other's hearts, and the fight is good-looking,], how can such a small plan escape my father's eyes. ”

As soon as Zhang Qi heard this, he came to his senses and said like a five-body thrower: "It's still the old man who has no last resort." ”

Xu Ying waved her hand, turned around and sat down, and continued: "Chang Sihao didn't take any more actions today, which means that he is also trying water, I believe that he values you very much in his heart, and you should also perform more." ”
