At the beginning, there is smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, and the woman is busy in the imp

He hurriedly raised his hand and put the tea cup back on the tray.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Xu Lu, could it be that you took epilepsy medicine! What's so funny about this?"

Xu Lu waved his hands and laughed so hard that he was out of breath.

"You don't understand hahahahahaha..."

He was the lucky person to know the whole process. Rong Baqiu was so merciful that he really died laughing.

Infected by his laughter, Xie Yuheng couldn't help but feel a little smile on his brows.

However, when she raised her eyes again, she looked outside the main door.

The few smiles he had had all faded away.

The person she really invited to this banquet is here.

Chi Song and Butler Ding stood at the back of the crowd.

Seeing that there were many people in front of him, Butler Ding frowned displeased.

"In the sixth year of Yongping, how many officials in Beijing participated in the palace examination?"

Chi Song lazily said, "It's been more than eight years. Even among those who have been assigned abroad, many have been promoted and transferred back to Beijing."

"Jinshi in the third and sixth years of Yongping. These two subjects coincide with the time when the court is short of people."

"Most of the people who serve are also officials in the capital, so they are naturally more valuable than those behind them."

Those in the back are not so lucky, they all have to be decentralized to the grassroots level for two years.

Every day, busy with grassroots matters.

After returning to Beijing, he will have to take the Shujishi exam based on his previous ranking.

It takes one year to complete the courses of the past three years.

As a result, results have to be combined with grassroots performance.

It is very rare to be appointed as a Beijing official with real power!

Therefore, Chi Guanxu asked him to surpass Xie Yuheng in the examination.

Not only to vent his anger on Er Fang's broken sleeves, but also to block his path to the Great Three Elements and get a bad ranking.

pity......

Chi Song curled his lips and smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes, only floating on the surface.

Just like, the false father-son relationship between him and Chi Guanxu is only on the surface.

Chi Song raised his eyes and looked at the young man in red who was receiving guests at the main entrance.

Hearing that Fang Fengxu had been arrested, his 'good father' seemed to be in a bad mood recently.

Ever since 'good brother' died tragically on the street during the Lantern Festival, Chi Guanxu's behavior has become increasingly crazier and twisted.

However, it was not like Chi Guanxu's style to allow Fang Fengxu to be interrogated.

There was some doubt in Chi Song's eyes, and before he had time to think about it, it was soon their turn.

Butler Ding bowed and presented the door-stepping gift and post.

Rong Shi took it, opened the register and entered the gift list, and then sang the salute loudly.

Xie Yuheng didn't even look at him during the whole process. Such a "disdainful" attitude really made Butler Ding feel unhappy.

As the saying goes: There are seven rank officials in front of the prime minister.

What's more, the Chi family was once one of the eight great families in Beijing.

After Chi Yao's marriage and before Chu Heng's rebellion, the Chi family's life had been smooth sailing.

Butler Ding is also praised and treated favorably by thousands of guests.

It's a pity that his family's master is unlucky.

I thought that the queen could not have children, so I sent the eldest daughter to the palace.

If she could give birth to a prince, the position in the middle palace would be within reach.

Who would have thought that something like that happened to the Sheng family, where a young girl was kidnapped and sold as a daughter of the Sheng family.

Who knows where Mrs. Yuanchi was a kidnapped child from the Sheng family.

In this way, the eldest lady's bloodline is not pure.

How can someone of unknown origin enter the palace?

My many years of hard work have been wasted.

It's all my fault that this boy from the Xie family actually took him abducted when he met a kidnapper.

It can be said that it is unheard of and unseen, it is indeed an evil star!

Butler Ding was filled with hatred, but he still had to remain humble on his face.

After all...this is the first time Jianglinghou Mansion has posted to the outside world.

Even though we are here, we have to take a good look at this huge structure of the Marquis Mansion.

It would be even better if he could bribe one or two servants from the Jiangling Marquis Mansion.

With this in mind, Butler Ding silently followed Chi Song into the Hou Mansion.

Just after turning around the screen wall, Butler Ding felt a chill on his forehead.

He raised his hand and wiped it, and it turned out to be a white, thin kind of bird droppings.

He endured it again and again, and took out a handkerchief from his pocket, ready to wipe away the dirt.

A black firecracker passed through the corridor and quickly hit him, knocking Butler Ding to the ground.

Then Fugui wagged his tail and walked toward the gate with clattering steps.

Chi Song glanced at Butler Ding, who was so painful that his teeth were all over the floor.

The already ugly face was now all wrinkled together, like a cucumber that had lost its moisture.

The corners of his lips raised slightly, and not long after, he saw Xie Yuheng walking over with the culprit in hand.

The young man had a clear voice and said, "I'm really sorry. There was a thief wearing clothes like this before."

"The thief saw the longevity lock hanging around the rich and noble's neck and tried to snatch it away, causing the dog's life to almost die."

Xie Yuheng said, touching the rich dog's head lovingly.

Next to him, someone immediately echoed.

"This thief is really hateful. He won't even let the dog go."

Xie Yuheng sighed: "Oh, who says it's not the case?"

"So, Fugui just met this... old slave of the Chi family."

"I may have mistaken him for a thief. I'm really sorry."

Xie Yuheng looked at Chi Song, "Look at me, your servant is not young anymore."

"Why don't you go back to your home first? I'll ask the doctor from Xinglin Pavilion to take a look later."

"As for the medical fees and compensation fees, Chi Tongnian, please rest assured that they will be quite a lot."

Chi Song, Fang wants to speak.

Butler Ding stood up tremblingly, waved his hand and said, "No, no need."

"Slave, I just fell down accidentally. How dare you bother the Marquis?"

The smile on Xie Yuheng's lips became more playful, "Oh? Really?"

"Yes."

Butler Ding's voice was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

Many smart people present were surprised to see him.

Jiang Jizhou held a folding fan, patted his palms lightly, and narrowed his peach blossom eyes slightly.

He murmured, "It's interesting, it's actually a conspiracy."

What on earth are the Marquis of Jiangling and the Chi family doing?

I always feel that these others of the same age were incidentally invited by the Marquis of Jiangling when he invited the Chi family...

There was no way, when he and Xie Yuheng were serving in the Ministry of War.

As a subordinate, Jiang Jizhou helped dig holes.

As the saying goes, those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black.

After digging a lot of holes, he will naturally know a thing or two.

I just don’t know what bad intentions this old dog from the Chi family has in mind.

When he was at the Ministry of War, he had been tricked by Jiangling Marquis, oh no, it was his teachings!

You should keep a close eye on Mr. Xie, don't let this old dog of the Chi family take advantage of you.

Jiang Jizhou narrowed his peach blossom smile and walked towards Chi Song.

When he got closer, Jiang Jizhou raised his eyebrows and said, "Together?"

"it is good."

Several people followed the servants of the Hou Mansion and continued to walk inside.

Since Mr. Si was not at home, Jiang Jizhou went to see Madam Xie Liu.

As for the people of the Chi family, Liu didn't even bother to raise her eyelids and just ignored them.

Chi Song had to wait outside the courtyard. Many guests came and went, all casting teasing glances.

After receiving another double eye roll, Butler Ding looked ugly and said, "Humph, a dog's eyes look down on people."
