Fu Song

Chapter 421 Don't Talk About Face
Stepping into the door, Hu Yi naturally saw Old Master Cen sitting in the middle on the Eight Immortals table in the middle, and then saw Xiao Cheng on the left and Cen Zhong on the right.

Xiao Cheng sat there without a big thorn, but at this moment, he was holding chopsticks in his hand, half bent over, and was carrying a chopsticks of green vegetables into the bowl in front of Old Master Cen, who looked at Hu Yi. When he was there, he just turned his head and looked at Hu Yi in a strange-looking posture.

Cen Zhong's chopsticks were still on his mouth, half of a piece of duck skin was in his mouth, and half was still on the chopsticks. He squinted and looked at Hu Yi who entered through the door.

A burst of anger rushed from his dantian to his forehead, and Hu Yi was about to roar angrily.

rude!

How rude!
It's not that you, Xiao Cheng, don't know that I've arrived. It's fine if you don't go outside the door to greet me. After all, you are Futai, but inside the door, you should at least put on a show, so that everyone can get by in front of you. no?
Are you going to tear your face apart?
On this point, he guessed really well, Xiao Cheng was ready to tear his face straight away.

He wants to go to the capital hall, including the official who understands that I, Xiao, take the overall situation into consideration, and am willing to contribute to the stability of the Southwest of the Song Dynasty, and even think about opening up the territory for the Song Dynasty, but it is not for you People are for the further expansion of Chinese culture and to take root, sprout, blossom and bear fruit.

But this doesn't mean that I, Xiao, can tolerate you kicking your nose and face. You know that this guy is here to cause damage, but you still have to work hard to maintain a smile on your face. Today, Xiao is going to take a big break His face also makes everyone on the Guizhou road understand my thoughts, so that some people who are confused about the situation will get confused and go the wrong way, stand in the wrong team, and finally end up in the end .

No matter what you say, these people have worked hard and shed blood when I, Xiao, developed the Southwest. If they can't be allowed to make mistakes, naturally they can't be allowed to make mistakes. This is also a means of protecting them.

If after I put on such an appearance, there are still people who want to post it or be pulled over by Hu Yi, then Xiao Cheng can only give him one sentence: I have done my own crimes, I can’t live!

Except for Hu Yi who crossed the threshold, everyone else stayed outside the door, not even Yang Qing and Tian Chou came in, and Liu Fengkui also had his arms folded and raised his head, as if he was concentrating on admiring the penetrating look on the lobby. plaque.

There were three big bosses in the house, and the people outside thought that they were not qualified to intervene in the fight between these three, so it was better to stay outside and watch the fun.

After a short period of stagnation in the room, Hu Yi finally broke the silence. He held back his anger, cupped his hands and said, "Xiao Futai!"

The room seemed to come alive all of a sudden, Master Cen swallowed the wine in his mouth with a gulp, Cen Zhong stuffed half a piece of duck into his mouth and started chewing, but Xiao Cheng put down his chopsticks, Standing up, half turned around to look at Hu Yi, cupped his hands, and said with a smirk: "So it's Hu Zhuanyun, it's freezing cold, but I'm in a hurry, I came here from Bianliang in a short time, it's really Someone Xiao is far away."

"Eat the king's salary, and the matter of loyalty to the king, don't dare not take it easy!" Hu Yi said with a sullen face.

Xiao Cheng nodded: "I understand, I understand. I heard from my late father that when the transfer envoy was in the third division, he was always the first to go and the last to leave, haha, hahaha!"

Hu Yi's body trembled slightly, obviously he was extremely angry. The civil and military officials standing outside watching the excitement were a little confused, but immediately someone who understood whispered and explained why Futai made the other party so angry with just a few words One Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas were born, there are allusions to this!

Forcibly swallowing a mouthful of old blood, Hu Yi said coldly: "This year's national economy is difficult, even the official family only eats two meals a day, and one meal is only two meat, two vegetables, one soup and five dishes. Others in the harem are even worse. It's only one meat, one vegetable and one soup, and all the halls have canceled ordering food from outside. Instead, they set up a small cafeteria by themselves, with daily quota, but here in Futai, there is a big banquet, with delicacies from mountains and seas on the table. This table, I'm afraid Don’t need tens of taels of silver?”

Xiao Cheng smiled and said: "I don't know about the transfer envoy. Today's banquet is not spent on official funds, but from the officials of Zheng. This is the only daughter of the official Zheng, and he is willing to spend a lot of money. This is his family's private wealth. , earn it in a fair and honest manner, you can spend it however you want. Secondly, the transshipment envoy has worked in the third division. You should know that money is called money when it is spent! Today's wedding banquet, chickens, ducks, fish, geese, etc. Yes, I bought about a thousand feet, which caused the price of these poultry in the farmers' homes around Guiyang to skyrocket, and the farmers made a lot of money, while other drinks, side dishes, etc., made many people in the surrounding area earn a lot of money. You can have a good year. And because these businesses are done, the government can get some tax revenue from it, which is just a matter of killing two birds with one stone! The government doesn't understand economics, thinking that they can make the country rich by saving, but the transfer is not How can someone who has worked in the third division understand it this way?"

Another mouthful of old blood almost spurted out, this Xiao Cheng has been pulling his black history pigtails endlessly, he really is not a man.

"Based on what you say, is extravagance justified?" Hu Yi said angrily.

"No, no, don't change the concept secretly." Xiao Cheng picked up his chopsticks with a smile and pointed at the dishes on the table, and said: "Please look at the dishes on the table, all the dishes on this table can be bought locally. They are all produced in the homes of the people on Guizhou Road. These are rare mountain products, which are collected by the people from the mountains. Transshipment envoy, I heard that you like chicken tongue very much, and sometimes you kill chicken for a meal Hundreds of them just to get together a plate of chicken tongues, is that the real extravagance?"

"What about this wine? Could it be that the wine is also brewed by the common people?"

Hu Yi began to dig a hole, because wine is a franchise. If you want to make wine and sell wine, you must have a license issued by the court, otherwise you will have to sit in the jail.

"The transshipment envoy Gao Ming is really brewed by the common people." Xiao Cheng laughed loudly: "But this wine doesn't need any license. Fruit wine has a sweet taste and a long aftertaste. However, in the past, although the wine was good, it was deep in the alley. Now, taking this opportunity, Xiao is going to launch it. This is a big industry! It can make a lot of money It can quickly fill the pockets of ordinary people. As long as wine is brewed, it is not afraid that it will not be sold, right? And it does not consume food, what a wonderful thing!"

Digging failed.

Fruit wine, of course, was not prohibited by the imperial court.

Seeing the other party gasping for breath, Xiao Cheng had nothing to say for a moment, but Xiao Cheng said again: "Transfer envoy, today is a good day for Mr. Zheng to marry a daughter, it is not an official meeting between our Futai Yamen and the transfer envoy's yamen, these Let’s leave things for later, how about that?”

Hu Yi, who had nowhere to step down, nodded when he heard the words, but the more he talked now, the more he would lose face.

But after Xiao Cheng said this, there was no more to say.

Shouldn't you invite yourself to the table at this time?

Hu Yi looked at Xiao Cheng, and Xiao Cheng also looked at Hu Yi. After a while, Xiao Cheng blinked and said, "Hu Zhuanshi, is there anything else?"

Hu Yi could already taste the sweet smell in his mouth, and his eyes were red.

"Today Hu made a special trip to visit Futai, but I don't know where Futai put me?"

"Oh, so it is!" Xiao Cheng suddenly realized, and said loudly: "Tian Yi, Tian Yi."

Tian Yi, who was outside the courtyard, squeezed in with great difficulty. He was a low-ranking person, and it was not his turn to have a good place to watch the excitement like the doors and windows.

"What's Futai's order?"

"Is the transfer envoy's residence ready?" Xiao Cheng asked.

"Since I knew that the transfer envoy was coming, I started to prepare again. However, in the current situation in Guiyang Prefecture, I really haven't found a good place. However, I have already prepared a military tent and everything is ready. It's done." Tian Yi said repeatedly, then turned his head to look at the transfer envoy: "Is the transfer envoy going to go there now? The officer will guide you."

Xiao Cheng nodded: "Originally, if it wasn't for Han Kai's wedding, even though this mansion is small, it would still be able to make room for the transfer envoy, but unfortunately, now this mansion is really full. It is not auspicious for newlyweds to vacate the house, and there will be a large number of adults in the transfer, so don't worry about it, and if you have to work hard for a few days, you must rearrange it, Tian Yi, did you hear that?"

"The officer heard it!"

Hu Yi was trembling with anger, turned his head and walked towards the door, but the officials outside the door suddenly retreated to make way for him.

After walking a few steps, Hu Yi suddenly stopped again, with angry light shining in his long and narrow eyes, he glanced at all the officials around him, and said sharply: "A certain family was ordered by the official family to come to Guizhou Road to be in charge of transshipment, please turn around Let's talk about it in detail."

Drop this sentence, and then stride away with your head held high.

All the class members thought that they could at least have a sumptuous meal when they came to this banquet, and then go to congratulate them again, maybe they can get some rewards, then Zheng Daguan is a rich man, so he won't care about these things.I never thought that I couldn't see the reward money, I didn't even have food, and I left hungry.

Everyone is exquisite and transparent, looking at the attitude of these two officers, I am afraid that they will be deflated in the future. This is the land of Xiao Futai, how can you compete with them?
Can't you be a little more tactful?
That's good, it's hard for me, and it's hard for everyone.

Being on duty is a hard life!
Life is good or bad, completely involuntary, if the superiors send themselves to follow a cunning master, then everyone will naturally get along well, but if they meet such a master as Hu Zhuan in front of them, it will be miserable So, you can only follow the wind and drink the rain.

Liu Fengkui sighed, turned around and followed Hu Yi as well. Although the two were not in the same system, they came together and both represented the imperial court. At this time, we must maintain a front line!

But I never thought that just after taking two steps, a voice came from behind.

"Eunuch Liu stay behind!"

Liu Fengkui was shocked, and he thought that he still wouldn't let him go, but he could only smile wryly and turned around to look at the person who came.

"Eunuch Liu, Futai said that you, an old man from the Northwest, came, but you didn't go in to say hello to him. I was very upset!" The visitor smiled and said, "Eunuch Liu, Futai invites you to have a drink." Wine, talk about parting with old love!"

Liu Fengkui turned his head to look at Hu Yi, and that guy's murderous eyes were slashing at him. If he went, he might be enmity with this person in the future.

But if he didn't go, it would be to refute Xiao Cheng's face, so what would he do in the future?
After thinking about it, he still cupped his hands and said: "How dare the lower official call you an old friend? I really don't dare to disturb Futai because of my low position. Why don't I come to see Futai again at another time?"

The visitor said with a smile: "Futai told the officials a long time ago that the father-in-law is not like an ordinary person. In the early years on Shaanxi Road, he was born and died. He also said that the father-in-law told him a word, so that Futai will always keep it in his heart and dare not take it. Yu or forget it!"

"What did I say that Futai will remember?" Liu Fengkui was a little at a loss.

"My father-in-law said that I dare not forget to worry about the country because I am humble, and I have to wait until the coffin is closed!" The visitor said with a smile: "This is what Futai often uses to teach lower officials!"

"Did I say that?" Liu Fengkui still didn't remember.

"Of course I said it, Futai can still tell lies?" The visitor smiled and dragged Liu Fengkui and went back: "Elder-in-law went to have a drink, your year of residence is not the same as that of the transfer envoy. The transfer envoy is next." If you want to go back to Suiyang, you will stay in Guiyang Mansion for a long time!"

This can also be interpreted as another threat.

Liu Fengkui didn't refuse any more, and followed the visitor halfway.

He also understood that the life of Hu Zhuanyun envoy on Guizhou Road will be very sad, not to mention completing any tasks entrusted by the court, if he can live a smooth life, it will be considered that Mr. Xiao Futai has a lot of people.

I and Hu Zhuanyun are not going the same way, there is absolutely no need to tear each other up with Xiao Futai, only when we have a good relationship can we take the next step!

Although Xiao Futai was blatantly alienating the relationship between himself and the transfer envoy, what does it matter?

It's not bad to act as if he's defecting to an old friend.

Seeing Liu Fengkui walking away, Hu Yi staggered, looking at the unhesitating expressions on the faces of the squad members around him, he was really burning all inside, and this is just at the end of the day, the people around him, Then one by one betrayed or was about to betray.

There is no way to pass this day.

Several military tents stand alone on a hillside, just in front of the wind, the key is who wants to come here, it must be clearly seen by others.

Hu Yi sat alone in the tent until dawn, and did not wait for Liu Fengkui to come back. Obviously, this traitor received better hospitality, maybe at this time he was on a high couch, snoring loudly!
