Standing up to the west wind and geese not returning

Yunni got up, tidied her clothes and hair, kowtowed respectfully in front of Yan Ci, and said, "The place where fireworks keep guests. Today, my son, Yunni has become a serious person."

Yan Ci said, "Life encounters are different. The girl is caught in the dust today. But as long as the girl does not abandon her sincerity, where does the physical body go? What's the difference?"

"Is the young master a Buddhist believer?" Yunni asked.

Yan Ci looked at the gold-painted copper stove on the side, with cigarette smoke rising, and said, "I believe in goodness..."

Yunni smiled and said, "I'll send you out."

Yan Ci took out some broken silver from his bosom, handed it to Yunni, and said, "I don't have much, so you take this to your mother, don't let her scold you."

Yunni didn't refuse, took the money with a smile, and sent Yan Ci to the door with a loud laugh, the old bustard saw that it wasn't long, and it probably didn't work out, so he just twisted Yunni's waist secretly with his hand, Yunni Ni just pushed Yan Ci out of the door without hesitation, and signaled Yan Ci to leave quickly.

Only then did he take out the silver from his bosom, handed it to the old bustard, and said, "Mom, why are you so anxious? I can still let him run away for nothing. I have already agreed with the young master, and I will come back when I have time. Just take it." Yin Zi goes to drink tea."

The old bustard weighed the broken silver in his hand, and said with a smile, "Seeing that you are a noble brother, how can you make such a shabby move?"

Yunni turned her head and smiled, put her hand on the old bustard's shoulder, and said with a smile, "My mother. When did my daughter do you wrong? I asked for the things those princes and grandsons gave me. I didn't want to honor you. gone."

The old bustard smiled proudly, "That's natural, under my Cui Niang's hands, there are no incompetent children, you see, although you don't like rouge and gouache like them, you like reading and writing.

This ordinary man, he likes girls with painted eyebrows and eyes, but if he is like today's brother, it is lucky that he chose you. I am really afraid that he will be upset if I choose someone else, so I won't be able to come again.But judging by the look on your face when you sent him out just now, within ten days, he will definitely come again. "

Yunni blushed and said with a smile, "Mother knows countless people, and her eyes are as bright as a torch, but my daughter can't guess when that young master will come."

"Just wait and see, if I say it, I will definitely come!"

Yun Ni only looked at the direction where Yan Ci was leaving, and was slightly dazed, then saluted the old bustard again, and said, "Mom, just watch by yourself. I'll go and collect the piano."

The courtyard seemed to be the same as usual, but Yunni felt that every inch of ground under her feet was much neater and cleaner than before.The distress in my heart is also slightly better.

Yan resigned from the long street and walked slowly back to the inn.I just feel that the night is quiet, the long street is alone, quiet but somewhat lonely.

Yan Ci walked forward with his hands behind his back, but couldn't help but sigh slightly.People live forever.It's really too much God's will.How many misdeeds does this Yunzhou magistrate have?

That night, Yan Ci lay in the most inconspicuous inn in Yunzhou City.Thinking about how to thoroughly investigate the big and small officials in Yunzhou.

Early the next morning.Yan Ci called Yuan Jie in, and then asked Yuan Jie to take a letter to the magistrate's mansion.When Yuan Jie came back again, he also brought back a letter in his hand.

Yan Ci opened the letter, smiled and said, "You will go to the banquet with me tonight."

"Where are you going, sir?" Yuan Jie asked puzzled.

"At night, you will naturally know that the left and right are not the Qianfang Pavilion from last night." Yan Ci joked.

When Yuan Jie heard something in Yan Ci's words, he quickly knelt down on the ground and said, "Please forgive me, my lord."

Yan Ci was not annoyed, he just said, "Get up quickly, there is no forgiveness or forgiveness. I just wonder why I was dragged in by the old bustard, but there was no sign of you."

Still kneeling, Yuan Jie replied respectfully, "The villain is always there, but on the roof."

Yan Ci was startled, and said, "What are you doing on the roof? In such a situation, you don't bother to help me."

Yuan Jie still looked respectful, and replied seriously, "Responding to your lord's words, His Highness the Crown Prince has ordered you. You can do whatever you want, as long as your lord is not in danger, anything is fine.

The villain...the villain watched from the roof, the lord...the lord just talked to the girl, listened to the music, twisted a veil for the girl to wipe her face, and didn't do anything else. "

Yan Ci put down the tea cup he had just raised, and said, "Your Highness is really considerate."

Yuan Jie said respectfully, "Thank you, sir, for your compliment."

"You..." Yan Ci was at a loss for words for a while, and couldn't help saying, "Go and rest, you have to worry about this night. If you can't take the lead, it will be even more difficult in the future."

Although Yuan Jie didn't know what Yan Ci's plan was, but seeing what Yan Ci said, he knew that there was an arrangement, so he cupped his hands and replied, "Yes. The villain will leave."

Yan Cifu held the teacup again, thought hard for a long time, then shook his head and sighed, got up and went to study.

In the evening, as expected, there was a little Jiaozi with a basket covered in gold and a colorful gold top that stopped outside the door of the inn. The second came up to deliver a message, and Yan Ci led Yuan Jie downstairs. Jiaozi walked quite smoothly along the way, about After a while, he stopped slowly.Yuan Jie followed the sedan chair all the time.Seeing that the sedan chair had stopped at this moment, he also stopped and looked around.

Yuan Jie stepped forward to lift up the sedan chair curtain for Yan Ci, Yan Ci got out of the sedan chair and looked at the plaque in front of him, "Baoxiang Tower..."

The bearer who carried the sedan chair said, "Master, Mr. Ding said, let you be brought here. The first room in Tianzihao. Sir, please." The bearer made a gesture of invitation, and led the other bearers. Carried the empty sedan chair back.

Yan Ci only wore a plain white shirt today, and tied his hair with a hair tie. He looked like a young scholar.

Yuan Jie followed Yanci all the way to the Tianzihao private room.When they reached the door, a young servant was already standing outside the door waiting. Seeing the two of them approaching, he asked, "But the imperial envoy, Mr. Yan."

The imperial envoy was on a hunting tour on behalf of the sky, as if His Majesty was here in person. The young man looked about the same age as Ye An, but he looked calm, and he didn't appear timid when he spoke. Yan Ci couldn't help liking it, and said , "Exactly..."

"My lord, please come inside." The boy stretched out his hand as he said that, as a gesture of invitation.Yan Ci turned slightly sideways to look at Yuan Jie, saw Yuan Jie nodded slightly, and then stepped inside.

This elegant room is quite clean. As soon as you enter, you can see a large floor-to-ceiling vase placed at the main entrance. The body of the vase is painted with delicate flowers and birds and peonies. Looking inside, it is a large screen with nine folds and geese separated by mountains. .

Yan Ci walked in with a straight step, only to see a middle-aged man in silk, with his eyes closed behind the screen, and a beautiful concubine beating his shoulders.

Seeing Yan Ci, Na Meiji felt that the movements of a beautiful young man who was elegant in jade couldn't help slowing down bit by bit.

The middle-aged man slowly opened his eyes and saw Yan Ci and Yuan Jie.Standing up hastily, he kicked the woman aside, cupped his hands and said, "This must be Sir Yan, the imperial envoy, isn't he? The next official, Zhizhou of Yunzhou, Ding Xiangui. Please forgive me for not welcoming you from far away."

Yan Ci glanced at the woman on the ground, bowed his hands and said politely, "Master Ding..."

That person was none other than Ding Xiangui who Yan Ci came to investigate thoroughly this time.

Seeing Yan Ci approaching at this moment, he hurriedly said, "Master Yan is young and talented. He has won a major examination in this subject. In less than three months, he will be a civil servant and lead an imperial envoy. It's really unmatched in the limelight. You are proud of the spring breeze."

Yan Ci did not refuse, found a seat and sat down, and said with a smile, "Master Ding's news is quite well-informed."

That Ding Xiangui was taken aback for a moment, and hurriedly picked up the teapot on the table to pour tea for Yan Ci, and said with a smile, "My lord is joking, but the villain is guarding this little Yunzhou, where the news can go, it's just your lord." Literary talent is flowing, and the reputation is famous all over the world. When this wind blows, the villain can't stop it."

Yan Ci smiled slightly, picked up the teacup and shook it slightly at his fingertips, and said, "Did your lord hear from the wind blowing from the capital what I'm here for?"

Ding Xiangui put down the teapot, grinned greasyly, and said, "The villain is stupid, but fortunately, there is a letter from an adult to remind me. The villain has been prepared. I have been prepared."

As he spoke, he pushed out a mahogany box, but Yan Ci didn't even look at it.He only signaled Yuan Jie to accept it.

Seeing that Yan Ci had collected the things, Nading Xiangui couldn't help but feel a little relieved.Unexpectedly, Yan Ci suddenly spoke.

"Letter?" Yan Ci pretended to be puzzled and said, "What letter?"

That Ding Xiangui was stunned for a moment, and then realized, "Um...Your Excellency is wise. Your Excellency is wise. There is no letter, no letter. Today we two have a good drink and talk, and tomorrow morning, the younger one will go to pick up Lord Yan, the imperial envoy. What do you think?" ……how about?"

"Yeah." Yan Ci laughed, "Master Ding's success in office is due to his agility."

Seeing that Yan Ci's words were quite loose, that Ding Xiangui couldn't help laughing, "I'm almost forty years old, so I don't have any future. It's just that I live a more comfortable life here in Yunzhou City. It's you, my lord." The future is limitless."

Yan Ci just smiled and did not speak. Seeing that Yan Ci did not speak, Ding Xiangui hurriedly said, "Your Excellency came to Yunzhou for the first time. I don't know how long you plan to stay. If there is enough time, I hope you will give me some time. It’s good to lead the adults to play for a while, and it’s also to comfort the adults who are exhausted all the way.”

Yan Ci smiled and said, "My lord, you don't have to be polite. This time Yan came here mainly to assist the officials to supervise the construction of the long embankment. Lord Ding can just be your prefect."

Na Ding Xiangui had heard some rumors, and he was uneasy at first. Hearing this, he couldn't help holding Yan Ci's hand and saying, "My virtuous brother is indeed smart and quick-witted. If it is useful in the future, he will be a brother. Inside, no one dares not to accept my account of Ding Xiangui. You can just ask."

Yan Ci smiled and said, "Since this is the case, Yan has a merciless request. I also ask Mr. Ding to fulfill it."

"Master Yan, please tell me."

"I heard that Mr. Ding is good at writing. Yan Mou loves calligraphy and painting the most in his life. I also ask Mr. Ding to give me some advice and write a few words for Yan. I don't know Mr. Ding, would you be willing to bother?"

Na Ding is an official who spent money to donate. He has come to his current position step by step. What he is most afraid of is that people will say that he does not study much, and he is arty from time to time. He invites scholars to recite poems and paint, and some flatterers will flatter him , so up to now, Ding Xiangui's characters are also somewhat famous in Yunzhou City.
