There are many treasures in this country
Chapter 94 On the Birthday Banquet
After Shen Yan got married, she became more and more arrogant. Princess Nan'an was born with unparalleled beauty, and she was the best at being a waiter. It is reasonable for him to be overwhelmed with such a treasure, but now it is too much.
Since the last time he made a confession at the gate of the palace and was overheard by the servant Xia Xia, the emperor treated him differently, his attitude became more and more indifferent, he repeatedly reprimanded him for trivial matters, and the day before yesterday he issued an order to reprimand him for bestowing a marriage.
There is a class of snobs in Beijing who specialize in picking quarrels and provoking troubles to make a fuss in order to profit from them. They love to instigate literati and military generals and spread rumors between them.They pretended to be good people at both ends and took advantage of the opportunity.
Shen Yan gradually lost his heart, and he became even more aggressive and domineering.These people were not used to seeing him, so seeing this opportunity, they made trouble and made up a whole bunch of rumors.
Recently, a group of foreigners has poured into Beijing, including blond-haired and blue-eyed barbarians, as well as flirtatious and glamorous Nanban.Among them is the sending mission from Nan'an Kingdom.They have frequent exchanges with our dynasty, and after many years of mutual trading, they have long been Sinicized, and nine out of ten people can speak Chinese.
There is another difference in Nan'an - most of the people are women, and a few men are mostly from foreign countries.There were many women and few men in the marriage mission, which attracted attention in Beijing and caused a lot of discussion. In addition, Shen Yanfeng, who married their princess, was not well-received, and many ugly words were spread behind his back.
Some people say that Shen Yan is cunning and ambitious, and he has other plans in marrying Princess Nan'an.Some people also said that Nan'an Kingdom had bad intentions in sending the princess to marry him.
In addition, there are many dirty and embarrassing words among the people, saying that Shen Yan has bad conduct, loves wine and sex, often attracts young ladies with the princess, counts horses in the same trough, and sings and sings every night.
There are also people who say that the people of Nan'an are quite good at witchcraft and sorcery. They spend a lot of time trying to make friends and attract bees and butterflies. Princess Nan'an is the best among them.
There are many such rumors on the street, Xiao Suo hears them every day, but on the surface it doesn't matter.On the contrary, Babao is not angry, and often scolds Shen Yan for being cold-hearted, and forgets the loving and loving Young Master Xiao in a blink of an eye.
Xiao Suo is now really like a monk who has become a monk. He usually lives in seclusion and does not go out, except for going to Yushitai to make an appointment, he doesn't care about other things.He didn't even wander around when he was resting, but only went back to Nancheng Gouwei Lane to visit Shan Gu and Wang Tiezui.Occasionally, he communicated with Ouyang Xu, talking about common matters.
That day Liu Siwen came to see the cat, and talked about Xie Yi, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, celebrating his birthday.Xiao Suo won the number one prize that day, thanks to Master Xie's words, he is barely considered his disciple now, so he should celebrate it.
Liu Siwen was also sent to the Yushitai that day, and now he is serving as the Assassin Yushi in the Inspectorate, and he is a colleague of Xiao Suo.Since we are going to celebrate the birthday, it is just right for everyone to go together.
Xiao Suo went into the room and brought some taels of silver, said: "I haven't seen any good things, and I don't know how to give them well. Elder brother comes from a great family, so his vision is naturally high, so please ask him to buy some birthday presents for me."
Liu Siwen took the money, nodded and said, "I'll take care of it myself, and I'll go with you in the future." After speaking, he got up and left.
Xiao Suo had never been to a banquet held by high-ranking officials. Before Shen Yan got married, he only wandered around in the back garden. This time, when he went to such a wealthy family as the Xie Mansion, he was really at a loss and felt inexplicably nervous—to celebrate his birthday, he might be able to saw him.
Liu Siwen came to invite him early the next morning, and gave him a delicately carved wooden box first: "Your birthday gift."
Xiao Suo opened it and saw that it was a three-eyed Ganoderma lucidum.
He doesn't recognize the other things, but the value of this thing cannot be hidden from him.His father used to practice medicine, and there were many rare medicinal materials in his family.Although he was young at that time, he was precocious, and although the names of the medicines were complicated, he still remembered most of them.Later, his father passed away, and the family had no rice to cook, so when he was desperate, he had to sell medicinal materials cheaply to survive.
The Ganoderma lucidum that Liu Siwen bought was bright red and in excellent condition. The few taels of silver he gave him couldn't buy it at all, because he asked: "Brother Liu bought me a birthday gift, how can he help me make up for it? Ganoderma lucidum must be expensive, how much is the asking price?”
"No compensation." Liu Siwen said, "This is a gift from General Shen."
"General Shen?" Xiao Suo's heart moved.
Liu Siwen nodded and said: "That day I went to the medicine store to buy sesame seeds, and I met him buying ginseng there. He knew my father before, so he knew me too. When we met, he asked me if I was doing well in Yushitai, and my age. Why did Qingqing buy Ganoderma lucidum for body repair. I said it was a birthday gift for you and me, but he insisted on paying the bill for me when he heard it. You bought this box for the few taels of silver."
Xiao Suo said embarrassingly: "So that's the case, I owe him a lot."
Like Zheng Duo, Xie Yi was also a veteran of the three dynasties, but he had never held important positions in the previous two dynasties, and he was single-handedly promoted in this dynasty, and he is one of the few officials of the second rank.
Not only is he in charge of the Ministry of Officials, but he also holds the post of Grand Master—although it is a false position, his grade is high.Because of this, the emperor usually relied heavily on him, and everyone wanted to curry favor with him.
A lot of people came to celebrate their birthday today, and Shen Yan was naturally among them.
He took Ruan Tong together and drove a canopy cart with three tall horses, quite ostentatiously.Although there were many carriages and horses in front of the gate of Xie's mansion, they did not hide his limelight.
Xiao Suo saw him from a distance, but he didn't go up to say hello, he just lowered his head and followed Liu Siwen and walked in - even now, even though he has ascended to the sky and became an official, he and he are still people in two worlds.
Shen Yan was wearing a black gold flying cloud silk brocade robe, with a strand of blue silk fluttering on his forehead, with a smile on his lips, with his head held high, he was sitting on the horse hand in hand with everyone in the Xie Mansion, he didn't seem to pay attention to this side.
Only Ruan Tong smiled at him through the crowd.
Xiao Suo came in and gave congratulatory gifts, and was led by the young servants to drink tea in the flower hall.Not long after I sat down, I saw a few flirtatious fans coming in from outside. I couldn't help being puzzled, and asked Liu Siwen in a low voice: "Why do you thank my lord for having fan relatives?"
Liu Siwen leaned into his ear and said: "Recently, many vassal kingdoms have come to congratulate, and they probably heard that Mr. Xie celebrated his birthday, so they all came to show courteousness."
Xiao Suo nodded and didn't answer, when he looked up, he saw Shen Yan walking inward with Ruan Tong in his arms, so he hurriedly turned his head to avoid looking.At that moment, everyone was invited to a banquet in the garden, Xiao Suo deliberately lagged behind by a few steps, and waited for them to be seated one by one before quietly entering the table.
It is April in the world, the weather is very good, the sun is warm, and the wind is smooth.The colorful shed in the garden is high, with hundreds of seats and noodles, surrounded by flowers and music, and there are operas, dances and dances on the opposite water pavilion.
Xiao Suo was sleepy, sitting on the seat with his head down, lost in thought.
Now that the gift has been offered, Xie Yi is too old and unable to bear it, so he only keeps his son to entertain guests, and resigns himself to rest.Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the old man had left, chatting and laughing became more and more troublesome, and several of them hugged each other with the boy with them.
Xiao Suo glanced at it inadvertently, and his hairs stood on end in fright.Sitting next to Shen Yan was the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment—the Zhang Yunjian who once took advantage of him for public gain and failed to moles him, and became enraged and pulled out all his fingernails.He still had that half-smile expression, with his narrow eyes squinted, his eyes glued to his body like moss, and he was making a move on a few girls.
Before Xiao Suo could react, there was a sound of "ding ding bang bang", the chair in front of him was overturned, and Zhang Yunjian was knocked down by Shen Yan's punch, holding his nose and being speechless.
There was a sudden chaos at the table, and Shen Yan wanted to go forward, but fortunately, his arms were held up by the crowd and he couldn't move.He scolded again with a sullen face: "Dirty thing, didn't you hear her say 'don't touch her', it's endless!"
Zhang Yunjian was ashamed, angry and in pain, her face was swollen purple, and she straightened her neck and said bitterly: "What kind of upper class are you? You blinded your mother by visiting brothels on weekdays. Why are you pretending to be a flower protector?" The two Nanman fans are nothing more than fans and prostitutes. When I touch her, I am flattering her. Why are you pretending to be noble!"
When Shen Yan heard the words, it was like adding fuel to the fire, he couldn't move his hands, and he flew up, just be careful.Everyone was chattering to persuade Zhang Yunjian to shut up and not to provoke Shen Yan anymore, who knew that there would be such a change, so they hurriedly dodged to avoid it.The latter might as well be kicked, spit out a mouthful of blood, and lay on the ground coughing.
Xiao Suo was so frightened that he forgot to avoid suspicion, rushed up and hugged Shen Yan's waist to persuade him: "General, if you hit again, you will die!"
Everyone was blocking him. Seeing that he was born thin and weak, he thought it was because of his weak strength that he hugged and pulled Shen Yan, so they didn't think there was anything wrong, and they all echoed: "Master Xiao's words are polite, general, stop quickly, don't let him go beated!"
Someone else said: "That's right, Mr. Zhang's original inappropriateness, but now he has regretted it, the general should not fight again! Besides, as a second-rank minister, how can you and I offend him, don't stop soon!" "
Shen Yan turned his head slowly, looked into a pair of eyes like autumn water, dazed for a moment, and finally calmed down.
Xie Fei, Xie Yi's son, hurriedly came up to fight, while ordering someone to take Zhang Yunjian to see the doctor, and asking someone to accompany Shen Yan down to calm down.
Xiao Suo volunteered, half-dragged and dragged him to the servant's room with a few enthusiastic adults, and then sent them back, Fang came in and said: "You are too impulsive! Zhang Shangshu's official position is higher than yours, if not, It shouldn't be up to you to teach me a lesson! Now that you have offended him, what will you do in the future? If he trips you up, who will see it?"
"He deserves it!" Shen Yan stared at him intently, "I feel relieved when I breathe out this breath."
