I was fucked by Zheng Ge as soon as I crossed over
Chapter 286 Pure and Passionate
The aunt knew every piece of furniture in the room like the back of her hand. When she mentioned glass, she looked at Su Jinyue with pride and praised her, "Yue'er is really smart. She can even think of such rare and useful glass."
Su Jinyue raised the corner of her mouth and said bluntly, "That's right, it's amazing~"
"Hahaha……"
There was another burst of laughter in the room.
The girls were full of warmth and affection, but the atmosphere in the front hall of the County Magistrate's Mansion was a bit heavy.
Ying Zheng sat at the top with a dignified look, his eyes sweeping over the ministers in the hall one by one as if they were real.
"Last year, Yingchuan's tax revenue tripled. All of you have made contributions, and as usual, you will all be rewarded."
Upon hearing this, all the officials of Yingchuan County in the hall stood up and saluted in unison, their movements skillful and respectful.
"Your Highness, I bow to you and thank you for your grace."
After expressing his gratitude, Su Ying took the lead, stepped forward, and in a steady and clear voice, began to talk about the situation in various parts of Yingchuan County over the years.
From the cultivation and harvest of farmland to the number of shops in towns, from the repair of canals and bridges to the living conditions of the people, he knew everything and reported in detail and accurately.
Afterwards, everyone reported in turn, and it was not until dusk that they finally finished.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines through the gate onto the ground, forming golden rays of light.
Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction, a subtle hint of relief in his eyes. He raised his hand and waved everyone away, "The rest of you, please leave for now."
The few ministers who stayed behind were all the heads of various departments in the county. They bent their bodies slightly and watched their colleagues leave.
The crowd dispersed, and Ying Zheng's expression straightened up as he continued to discuss government affairs.
Ying Zheng listened particularly carefully to the information about merchants from all over the country who traded with the Su family's wine.
As the sun set, darkness gradually swallowed up the last ray of light. Candles lit up, their soft glow illuminating the entire hall.
The eunuch Pushe took careful steps and approached Ying Zheng. He bent down and reminded him softly, "Your Majesty, the dinner is ready."
Ying Zheng closed his eyes and rubbed his temples to indicate that he understood. Then he slowly opened his eyes and looked at everyone.
"It's getting late, and you've all worked hard all day and are hungry. We'll discuss other matters tomorrow. Let's go and have dinner!"
Having said that, Ying Zheng stood up and walked towards the banquet hall in the front yard.
Everyone followed suit, not daring to take it lightly at all.
Su Ying led Ying Zheng forward all the way, introducing the layout of the county magistrate's mansion from time to time.
"Thanks to the care of the Grand Master, the Su family is now able to build such a courtyard."
Ying Zheng nodded without saying anything.
He knew that the Su family made a lot of money from the liquor business. Before this, they had already handed over half of their income to the court, and he had also seen the detailed account books.
Su Jinyue and the others had already arrived at the banquet hall. When everyone saw Ying Zheng at the entrance, they all stood up and saluted.
"Without courtesy, I will give you a seat."
Green Ant New Distillery, red clay small stove.
Amidst the clinking of glasses, it was another lively dinner.
Perhaps because he knew his grandson's preferences, this song and dance performance included programs such as men dancing with swords.
Su Jinyue was indeed delighted to see this.
However, Ji Yutian and the others behind her looked somewhat unhappy.
Feng Laoliu secretly touched Li Xian's arm, raised his chin towards the man dancing on the stage, revealing a tacit expression.
Li Xian raised his eyebrows, raised his glass and clinked it with Feng Shan's glass on the table, raised the corners of his mouth, and drank it all in one gulp.
In just over a month, he had realized that the Imperial Master had no intention of recruiting them.
The Imperial Master looked at them with only admiration in his eyes, not desire.
That kind of appreciation is like seeing a beautiful flower or pretty clouds.
Pure and passionate.
But that’s fine too.
He no longer had to constantly convince himself in his heart and just accept his fate.
Now, he just wants to be a loyal minister, help the Imperial Master manage the affairs of the Imperial Master's Mansion, and fight for the Master's ideals.
The music of stringed instruments did not stop and the dinner party continued.
Ying Zheng looked at the man on the stage, but he was thinking of Xiang Yu who was far away in Kuaiji.
He hasn't met this person yet.
However, from what San'er and the others said, it seemed that they had seen him many times.
Today the messenger reported that the other party has already known the news of Yewang County, but it is unknown what choice the other party will make.
Several large houses have been built at the foot of the mountains on the border of Kuaiji County.
Several bonfires were lit in the martial arts arena, and Xiang Liang and others gathered around them, passing the letters in their hands around.
"Brother Liang, what do you think about this matter?"
Huan Peng, dressed in gray, had arrived here at the beginning of the year and told everyone in detail about Zhao Xie's words and deeds.
Now, more news came from Zhao Xie, and he became suspicious and unwilling to believe it.
Xiang Liang turned the barbecue grill on the campfire, and a look of struggle appeared in his eyes.
He intended to take advantage of this matter and secretly add fuel to the fire, but considering that Zhao Xie was unreliable, he was also worried that he would be fooled.
He hesitated, his voice a little erratic: "Let's wait until our people have investigated thoroughly before making any plans."
"Okay." Huan Peng nodded in agreement, his brows still furrowed.
Zhao Xie was insidious and caused the deaths of more than 200 Yan soldiers. This was a great hatred and he must avenge it.
If he had the chance, he would definitely bite Zhao Xie hard to relieve the hatred in his heart.
At this moment, Xiang Yu, who was standing next to them, stood up from his seat in anger and shouted, "Who cares who he is? A real man cannot be depressed and serve under someone else for long! We can just do it ourselves. Why should we care about others?"
With that, he turned around angrily and walked out, walked towards the martial arts field, picked up the sledgehammer on the weapon rack at the side of the field, and danced with it with great vigor.
Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu looked at each other, then turned to look at Xiang Yu in the field with some indulgence.
"Yu'er, a letter came from the south, promising to forge swords with you!"
"Really?"
Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu immediately put down the sledgehammer in his hand and ran back to the campfire with shining eyes.
"Really? Uncle? They really agreed?"
Xiang Liang smiled and stretched out his hands to straighten Xiang Yu's clothes, saying, "Of course it's true. When has your uncle ever lied to you?"
He pulled Xiang Yu to sit down and told him in detail.
"They say a celestial stone once fell in Kuaiji. They asked us to carefully find it and send it to them so that they can forge a weapon for you."
"Then I want a Chu Ji! Longer! Heavier! It's too light and not very comfortable to use!"
Xiang Liang agreed repeatedly and handed the cooked meat to Xiang Yu. "Okay, I'll grant you all your permission. I'll write back and let them know right away."
At this time, Huan Peng on the side also responded: "Don't worry about Tianshi. I will go out tomorrow and look for him everywhere. I will definitely find him."
"Okay! Thank you, Master!"
As the sky darkened, the aroma of barbecue drifted far away on the breeze, mixed with the clear aroma of wine, refreshing the heart.
When you come to Yingchuan County, the wine and drinks are naturally more fragrant than those elsewhere.
Uncle Su got drunk that day.
Even Xiao Shisan made an exception and drank a little more.
