The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 363 Don't use poetry indiscriminately

Wang Shouwen laughed and said, "I'm just talking casually, don't worry."

Xie Shen shook his head and said, "Brother Ziwen, what I wish in my life is to inherit the knowledge of the past and bring peace to all generations! I never have such a thing as selfishness."

Wang Shouwen: "."

"The Bureau of Maritime Economics was established as a last resort. If you continue to use the Bureau of Maritime Shipping, it is inevitable that you will be constrained by the local government."

"It's better to be considerate of you."

"However, in this way you will be pushed to the cusp. As far as I know, the merchants from Zhejiang and Fujian are already at war. After the opening of the port, they will fight openly and secretly."

Xie Pi also nodded and said: "That's right. Ningbo and Quanzhou, Fuzhou will become the base camps where Fujian merchants and Zhejiang merchants will compete. I don't know who will win. Brother Jinxiu, what do you think?"

Xie Shen paused and said, "I can't say that well. But no matter where there are more merchants coming and going, the increase will be the taxes of Ming Dynasty. What does it matter?"

Although he said so, he also felt that Fujian merchants had a greater chance of rising. After all, its geographical location was not comparable to that of Ningbo Port.

Xie Pi praised: "Brother Jinxiu is right. If my Ming officials are as righteous as Brother Jinxiu, then eternal peace can be expected."

"Don't just talk about it, Duke Muzhai's birthday will be in a few days, we have to prepare well."

Only then did Xie Shen remember that it was Xie Qian's birthday soon.The 46-year-old big man who entered the cabinet is only 48 this year. He is already a cabinet minister at such a young age, which is really very dignified.

Since Xie Pi has many sons, it is naturally inconvenient to say, so he just smiled and said, "Of course my father's birthday party will be held, but everything should be kept simple. Brother Ziwen and Brother Jinxiu don't need to spend too much money."

Wang Shouwen slapped his thigh and said, "How can that be done? Uncle Xie's birthday banquet is not only a matter of your Xie family, but a matter of Yuyao as a whole. Now Xu Ge is thinking of retiring, and Liu Ge is also getting old. It’s there. I’m afraid the position of Shoufu Gekui will belong to Uncle Shi sooner or later. We are all from Yuyao, so how can we not have a good celebration.”

It has to be said that the rural complex of the generation is very important.In this case, once a big man like Xie Qian appears, there will be countless people attached to him.

It's good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and it's good to say that it's a fellow countryman with the chief minister of the cabinet.

"Jinxiu, are you right?"

Xie Shen smiled lightly and said: "Brother Ziwen is right. The elder Ge's birthday banquet must be organized properly. I have prepared a birthday gift, although it is not expensive, it is also a thoughtful one."

Wang Shouwen chuckled and said, "So you have already prepared Jinxiu. Yuyao has two champions one after another, and they are really in the spotlight. At the birthday banquet, you and Shibo had a lively chat, and it is a good thing to spread the word."

Xie Pi said with some embarrassment: "Anyway, I have already said everything I can say. If the two senior brothers insist on doing this, I will not be able to stop them."

Xie Qian has always followed the route of Qingliu, from the champion of the middle school to the position of the Imperial Academy, and then to the position of the Eastern Palace Attendant, has always been the route of Ci ministers.

This route is of course fast, but the most feared thing is rumors.

Therefore, Xie Qian did not dare to be careless even if he was already an extremely powerful minister. Even the birthday banquet was planned to be simple.

But sometimes things are not what you want to do.

Take Xie Qian's birthday banquet as an example, this is an opportunity for all Yuyao officials.Whether or not he can hug Xie Qian's thigh and make his way from now on depends on the performance of this birthday banquet.

On the seventh day of October, autumn is breezy and crisp.

In the blink of an eye, it was Xie Qian's birthday, the cabinet scholar.

Although Xie Qian had already said that everything should be kept simple, more than 100 invitations were sent out in the end.

There is no way that people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes.

Officials from the Zhengyin Hall of Zhubuyuan Temple have to invite them, fellow villagers have to invite them in the same year, and you can’t stop students from coming to celebrate their birthdays.

In this way, 100 people is really not too many.

But Xie Shen was wearing a royal blue Su silk gown, a square scarf on his head, and black leather boots today, looking like a handsome young man.

If other people saw it, they would think it was the grandson of some family, but they didn't know that this person was the fourth-rank imperial censor, Xie Shenxiu, the hottest young minister in the court.

Putting aside these gossips, Xie Shen came down to the gate of Xie Mansion under the service of Chen Hu'er, and said indifferently: "I come to congratulate the boss on his birthday."

The gate official was overjoyed to see Xie Yushi coming, and said repeatedly: "Master Xie, please come in quickly."

After Xie Shen entered the gate of Xie Mansion, he said to Chen Hu'er: "Be smarter later, don't say a word that you shouldn't say."

Chen Hu'er even claimed it was.

I have to say that Ge Lao's birthday banquet was really big.

Although everything has been simplified, the momentum cannot be lost.

At this time, in the back garden of Xie's house, the servants were busy.

The tables and chairs have already been set up, but the melons, fruits, wine and dishes have not yet been served.

Simply according to the rules, no one will be present until Xie Qian, the main host of the birthday banquet, is old, and there is still enough time for the servants of the Xie family to prepare.

Xie's house is not that big in the capital, more than a hundred people attending the banquet have already filled the back garden, if there are more, I'm afraid they will be given seats.

Seeing that Wang Shouwen was also there, Xie Shen took a step forward and said, "Brother Ziwen, why don't you see Shi Bolai?"

Wang Shouwen waved his hands and said: "My father is ill, so I have to come to celebrate the elder Ge's birthday. I can't compare with you Jinxiu, just don't lose face."

While speaking, Xie Qian, the main cabinet scholar of the birthday banquet, came through the moon gate with square steps.

He is wearing a scarlet official robe today, his face is radiant and his eyes are piercing, and he is not inferior to young people in the slightest.

Seeing that Xie Ge was old, the guests bowed their hands to salute one after another, and Xie Qian returned the salute with a slight nod.

After a ceremony, the guests and hosts will be seated, and the birthday banquet will officially begin.

"If life is just like the first time you saw it, why is the autumn wind sadly drawing a fan. Waiting for leisure to change but old people's hearts are changeable. Sad, Xu Ge has raised a white-eyed wolf, sad!"

At this moment, an abrupt voice sounded, and everyone looked sideways.

The speaker was You Chen Zhuo, Minister of Rites.The Ministry of Rites is Xu Pu's headquarters, and this Chen Zhuo was single-handedly promoted by Xu Pu.

Now that Xu Pu said that he was ill, Chen Zhuo was unhappy, which is quite normal.

But the question is why did he take his anger out on Xie Qian?

This poem has become popular since it was written by Xie Shen at the Hangzhou Oiran Club, whether it is a brothel oiran or a prince and grandson, they all have to recite a few lines.

But when Chen Zhuo used it here, it was obviously mocking Xie Qianen for taking revenge.

Did he think it was Xie Qian's idea for Xie Shen to beat Xu Pu?
Xie Qian felt bitter in his heart, buddy, don't use poetry indiscriminately, it is easy to cause misunderstandings.

"Chen Shilang, what do you mean! Today is my father's birthday banquet, do you have to make a fuss!"

Xie Pi couldn't bear it, and immediately shot the case and glared at each other.
