A young husband dressed as a violent butcher
Chapter 55
"I am the Erlang of the Jin family, Jin Jincheng, entrusted by Xiong Zhuangshan, to pay a special visit to King Zhenbei. Please let me know." This is a very important matter, and it is also a major event to pay a visit to the prince. Jin Jincheng is proud to make the trip himself.He was busy all the way, just arrived at Jin's house, he only took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and came here without even taking a break.His elder brother nodded appreciatively at his attitude.
Hearing the familiar names of 'Xiong Zhuangshan' and 'Jin's Family', he swept the door of the room arrogantly, and his face was squeezed into a chrysanthemum in an instant. "It's Mr. Jin Erlang, you're being polite here." The doorman's attitude became extremely enthusiastic. Although some of them have the face of the Jin family, the main one is Xiong Zhuangshan's face.He is a newcomer, the one who was expelled by the prince himself, I heard that the reason for expulsion was because he blocked someone who should not be blocked.And he once heard some old people discussing in private that the unstoppable person was surnamed Xiong.
"Mr. Jin Erlang, it's not that I don't communicate with you. It's really a coincidence that you came. My prince has just been called into the palace by the officials." The prince's whereabouts should not be revealed, but the Jin family has been officials for generations. With Xiong Zhuangshan's face, the concierge wanted to sell favors.Seeing no one left and right, he whispered in his ear: "Jin Langjun, don't wait any longer, I see the prince's expression was serious when he left, there must be something important, and it doesn't mean how long it will be discussed."
Jin Jincheng's expression froze, knowing that he could no longer inquire, he nodded slightly to the porter to express his thanks.
"Xiong Erlang asked me to give this letter and the wooden box to the lord. Since the lord is not here, please help pass it on when the lord returns." Jin Jincheng stuffed the letter and the box to the concierge. For cover, stuff something into the porter's sleeve.
The concierge became even more eager, "Your Majesty Jin Lang, don't worry, I will hand over the things to the lord myself."
When King Zhenbei came back from the palace, he had been thinking about the Xiong family's affairs. He wrote a letter and ordered people to send it to Xinghua Village as soon as possible.
The concierge collected the things and was serious in his work. When the prince came back, he didn't know how the prince was feeling, so he didn't dare to go up to him, for fear of angering the prince and bringing the Jin family down.
"Xiao Cui, Xiao Cui..." The porter called a clever maid who had just come out of the prince's study with tea.
The maid came generously and said with a smile, "What's the matter?"
"How is our prince feeling?"
Xiao Cui glanced at him, "Why are you asking this?"
The concierge smiled and said: "Do you still remember the big event at the end of last year, that is, the prince personally kicked out a door. It was the Xiong family who was the root cause. He entrusted the Jin family to send some things to the prince. Seeing that the prince was not there, let him Let me pass it on, I'm not afraid that the lord is in a bad mood, if I go up, I'm looking for a fight."
Seeing his enthusiasm, Xiaocui knew that the concierge must have taken advantage of it, but she was not jealous, nor would she take it from him.After all, she serves in the prince's study, and the people who cling to her will have various benefits, and she is unwilling to become grudges over a small amount of money.
Just pretending to be a favor, he said angrily, "You, why are you so reckless. This is because I know you well, and I know that you are not that kind of person. If it were someone else, I would have charged him with snooping on the prince's whereabouts."
The concierge smiled and said a few good words, and Xiao Cui said: "Go, looking at the prince doesn't seem to be in a bad mood."
The concierge turned around and begged to see the prince.
"Tooth sticks?" The prince read the letter, opened the pear wood box, inside it was made of silk, and five things in the shape of brushing teeth were placed neatly. "This is Yaxiang chip. It can be used after dipping in water, which is convenient. I don't know how that husband of Xiong Zhuangshan came up with these novel things."
Yaxiang Zhenbei Wang did not become the first user, and felt regretful for a while, so he liked the novelty of Yaxiang chip very much.Although this gift was not expensive, it was delivered to his heart.
The king of Zhenbei picked out a stick of tooth incense from it and gave it to his servants to try it out first. After a few days of trial, everything was normal and there were no symptoms of poisoning before the king of Zhenbei used it.
He fell in love with this thing only after using it for breakfast once. It really is a good thing, and it is convenient to carry.With it, you don't have to worry about not cleaning your teeth and smelling when you go to restaurants outside to have a meal and drink tea.
He looked at Ya Xiangchou and nodded in satisfaction, and suddenly a flash of inspiration appeared, and he laughed.
Xiao Cui, who was waiting on the side, didn't know what the meaning of her prince laughing out loud was, so she asked suspiciously, "What happy event did the prince think of?"
King Zhenbei was in a good mood, "Zi Shi. With it, I can do the Xiong family a big favor. If the Xiong family knows how to repay me, they should know how to repay me."
Then King Zhenbei entered the palace with a wooden box containing tooth sticks.
The two letters from the official family and the King of Zhenbei rushed out of Tokyo one after the other, one was delivered to the yamen of Yulin Town, and the other was in the hands of Xiong Zhuangshan of Xinghua Village.
The county magistrate respectfully asked Sheng Jian to open it, and it turned out that he was rushing to the earthen kang. The words between the lines asked him to mobilize the Xiong family, and he must understand the method of mobilizing the Xiong family with reason and emotion to make the Xiong family offer the earthen kang.Of course, it is specially emphasized that extraordinary measures must not be used.In the end, he said generously that as long as the Xiong family donated the method of pan-kang, he would personally give 300 taels of silver and inscribe a plaque.
After reading the letter, the county magistrate sneered and said to himself: "Three hundred taels of silver, even the poor officials can say it! Last year, when the price of the kang of the Xiong family was the most expensive, there were more than twenty taels of silver per shop, and more than a dozen shops." That’s it, why bother to donate the method of making an earthen kang for 300 taels of silver.” The county magistrate’s eyes fell on a certain place on the bamboo slips, where the benefits for him were written, exempting Yulin Town from tax for three years, and saving it for the construction of Yulin Town, the county magistrate You can control it by yourself, and in addition, a four-character plaque for loving the people is hung in the middle of the yamen.
Since the creation of Yu Chao, no official has ever received a plaque from the official family. If he can become No.1, this official road will instantly become the road to the sky. Given time and a little operation, he will return to Tokyo just around the corner.And with this plaque, as long as the officials don't want to slap their mouths on themselves, as long as he doesn't go too far, then no one can take off the black gauze hat on his head in this life.
The temptation is too great.
The county magistrate was so happy that he couldn't help laughing.
When Tang Shouchu heard the letter from Tokyo, he thought it was Jin Jincheng who had written it to announce the good news.Seeing that he was confused, the messenger who sent the letter reported himself.
Tang Shou hurriedly invited people into the house, poured honey water and walnut cakes, and invited people to stay overnight, stealing a few taels of silver for benefits.
He and Xiong Zhuangshan are both illiterate now, so Ji Xiucai was still invited to read the letter.What was said in the letter was roughly similar to the contents of the officials, the only difference was that King Zhenbei’s letter had more persuasive words, and it also faintly revealed that if they agreed, he could give him a favor.
When he heard that the government only gave Wenyin 300 taels, Tang Shou's face was calm, and the slightest hint of too little was not revealed on his neither salty nor bland face.
Tang Shou thought it was too little, the county magistrate thought it was too little, and even the king of Zhenbei thought it was too little, but Ji Xiucai, who read the letter, when he read the reward of 300 taels of Wenyin, his voice unconsciously raised his voice by an unknown number of tunes. Only women are sharp.My hands trembled, my voice trembled, and I almost couldn't hold the letter.
After Ji Xiucai finished reading the letter, he wanted to say something, but he licked his dry lips, the words stuck in his throat and he couldn't get out.Tang Shou had no intention of discussing with him at all, and just politely invited him out of the house.
After the people left, there were only two of them left in the yard, and Tang Shou showed a look of disgust, "This official is too fastidious. I will give me 300 taels of silver for such a profitable prescription. I didn't say it, This is because I already had the intention of offering the recipe, otherwise I would be so hard on him, I will definitely not offer it."
Xiong Zhuangshan is busy paving the gravel road in front of the house, which is a road leading to the other two small buildings in the house.Flowers and plants are planted in other places, and it is muddy in rainy days. If there is no road, the shoes and socks will be dirty as soon as you walk in rainy days.
Hearing this, Xiong Zhuangshan kept moving his hands, and replied: "It's only been a few years since the truce with Fanbang, and a lot of waste is waiting to be done. At this time, when the treasury is empty, it is not easy for the officials to give out 300 taels. "
"That's true." Tang Shou squatted down to look at the road paved by Xiong Zhuangshan. Not to mention, this kind of gravel-paved path is really unique. "The thing that fascinates me the most is the plaque. With it, all the ghosts and ghosts in our Xiong family's business will have to stay away. I dare to show some things."
Speaking unintentionally, the listener intends.Xiong Zhuangshan's working hands paused slightly, and his brows frowned slightly. He took out so many things that others don't know, especially the method of earth kang, he dare not say that he can save the common people, but it is almost the same.But what his husband said meant that there were more attractive and more profitable things in his hand, and the earth kang was far from enough to look at them.For the subsequent work, Xiong Zhuangshan did half-heartedly. After he finished the construction, he realized that the gravel road was paved crookedly.
Unexpectedly, Tang Shou said that he had a very artistic conception, and this road was left behind.
Tang Shou received the letter, but he didn't rush to reply. They couldn't agree to this matter too quickly. They had to be firm before letting the officials know. They were really unwilling to give up, but it was because of the relationship between him and King Zhenbei. In terms of face, I had to compromise.Of course, it won't be delayed too much, so that the officials feel that they are ignorant.
A few days later, envoys from the barbarians came to pay homage, and the officials held a banquet in hospitality, and all the courtiers came here in full dress.
At the gate of the palace, just as Jin Jinming was about to step in with one foot, a buzzing fly followed behind him.
The person who came was Mr. Saburo of the Tang family, who was the descendant of Mr. Saburo of the Tang family, who together with him, the Jin family, and the Tokyo Zhu and Huang families were known as the four major families in Tokyo.
The two have known each other since childhood, and because Jin Jinming has always been a leader among his peers, he has become the object of praise from the elders of other families, that is, what later generations often call other people's children.
Tang Sanlang is obviously a few years older than Jin Jinming, but he still grew up listening to Jin Jinming's name. Sometimes when he misbehaves and does something wrong, he will be taught by his elders and compared with Jin Jinming.
Mr. Tang Sanlang naturally couldn't resent him for beating his parents, so this resentment was all on Jin Jinming.So although there is no major fault between the two, there is inexplicable disagreement.Tang Sanlang first entered the court as an official, and Jin Jinming later became an official. In the intervening years, Tang Sanlang became Jin Jinming's senior. When Jin Jinming's foundation was not stable, Tang Sanlang often relied on this status to suppress him.So if you look at the entire Yu Dynasty, whoever has the ability to change the gentleness and gentlemanliness is only Tang Jiasanlang.
Tang Sanlang leaned on Jin Jinming's body as hard as he could, barely touching him.Jin Jinming frowned slightly, resisted not to tear off Wen Run's mask, and beat him into a ball.
"Oh, isn't this Jin Dalang? Dalang is doing well recently. I heard the servant said that your tooth incense is cheap and still usable, but there are not many. He asked me if I could tell you to do more. He has a lot. selling point."
At first this seems to be a compliment, but anyone with a brain knows that Tang Sanlang is burying the Jin family in a disguised form, saying that his Jin family's tooth incense is only suitable for servants.The young lady in Tokyo has a good face. If she knows that the servants are also using the things she uses, she will unreasonably think that she is degrading her self-worth, and she will never use it again. threw.
Tang Sanlang looked like he and Jin Jinming were good friends, and said sarcastically: "If you can't get enough money to do so little, then tell me, for the sake of us growing up together, I can help you." .Otherwise, your Yaxiang is no longer for sale, what are my servants doing? Looking at the whole Yuchao, there is no such cheap Yaxiang to buy."
The Yaxiang of the Jin family has been slandered to the extreme recently, and he has never cared about it. After all, it is a toy for his younger brother to test the waters.What's more, with his current status, even if there are rumors, no one dares to speak in front of him, and at most they can ridicule his second brother who can't hold his breath.
Tang Sanlang was the first one who dared to slander Jin Jinming in front of him like this.
I don't know if it was because of the slandering words or the person who slandered him, Jin Jinming's 20 years of good self-cultivation was about to be broken, and he almost couldn't help but pin him at the gate of the palace.Fortunately, Jin Jinming's gentle mask has been worn for a long time, and he restrained his irritability in time.
He ignored Tang Sanlang, treated him as farting, and strode into the palace gate, throwing people away.
Officials of the Tang faction squeezed beside Tang Sanlang, looking like a crowd of stars, and flatteringly said: "Sanlang is very powerful, every time you go out, you will definitely change Jin Jinming's face, this kind of ability is hard to find in the whole Yu Dynasty. Get the second person."
"No, no, Saburo is amazing..."
I don't know what to brag about, they all became rainbow farts.Tang Sanlang was very proud of the compliment that he was the only one who could change Jin Jinming's anger, and said a lot of kind words to the old men.
Palace banquets are very extravagant, you can exchange two dishes with a glass of wine, and they are all precious ingredients.The envoy Hu was very satisfied with the hospitality of this standard, and the conversation between the two parties became more harmonious.
After the meal was finished, the maid came swaying with trays, and each tray contained two teacups and a box of tooth incense.Of these two teacups, one is filled with water for gargling, and the other is for gargling.
The maids stood beside the officials, looking at the familiar wooden box, the officials knew what it was, and sure enough, what the maids handed over was the tooth fragrance from Taohuayuan.
Tang Sanlang, who was still mocking Jin Jinming at the gate of the palace just now, suddenly felt his cheeks burning hot, so he was ashamed.
He stared at his second brother angrily, he knew that the officials would bring out tooth incense to entertain the foreign envoys at this palace banquet, why didn't he give it first.Recently, the Tang family is behind the newly opened Yaxiang shop in Tokyo.
Tang Erlang was also wronged by his younger brother's stare. Their father, who was an official in the same dynasty, had not received any news, so how could he find out.But Tang Sanlang doesn't care about these, if he doesn't find someone to divert his anger now, he will explode.
Hu Shi had never seen Yaxiang before, so he didn't know what it was. He just watched the other people dig a spoonful and put it in their mouths to rest, then spit it out after rinsing their mouths with water, and followed suit.
However, when he reached out to grab it, he realized that what was placed in front of him was not the same thing as the one in front of others, but a long strip of unknown material in front of him.The thing still exudes a slight sweetness and a strong fragrance.
Hu Shi's complexion changed slightly, thinking that Yu Chao's officials wanted to make him look ugly, so he opened his mouth to question.However, when he raised his head, he found that the officer was holding the same thing as the one on his face.The official picked up the thing and put it in his mouth, covered his mouth with one hand, and wiped it with the other. After a few strokes, he rinsed his mouth with water.
The envoy Hu turned to look at King Zhenbei on the opposite side, and found that he had the same thing in his hand, which was different from that of other officials.Moreover, the posture he uses is as skillful as that of an official, and he seems to be using it frequently, and he has become accustomed to it.From this point of view, this thing is very precious, and only princes and officials can use it, and officials cannot use it yet.This prepared him one, not to be contemptuous on purpose, but to be taken seriously.
Hu Shi was satisfied with this, but he didn't want to show his timidity, showing that his knowledge is shallow. They Hu people have short-sightedness, and they have never even seen such an ordinary thing.
He followed the example of the official, stuffed the thing into his mouth, and wiped his teeth casually twice, but he didn't expect that this wipe shocked him.
This thing itself is sweet and has a pleasant aroma. After rubbing his teeth, his whole mouth smells delicious, and his breath is completely new. It feels completely different from brushing his teeth with salt.Only after using it did I realize that it was not brushing teeth at all.
Hu Shi restrained and restrained again, but he still couldn't hold back and stretched out his hand to cover his mouth to try the breath. It smells so good, and the smell is too fresh.
The affection in his eyes was hard to conceal. If he hadn't been an emissary this time, he couldn't help asking what it was, how it was made, and how it was so easy to use.
He couldn't ask, but Hu Shi still thought that he was secretly looking at the thing secretly. He knew Yuchao's characters, and knew that the words "Peach Blossom Spring" were engraved on it, so he secretly wrote it down.
Zhenbei Wang and the officials used different things from them, and the officials also found out, but no one dared to show abnormalities.Like fools, they secretly memorized the thing and planned to leave the palace, so they searched all over the sky.
That's for the official use, and there is a better spokesperson than the official.
Their thoughts coincided with that of Hu Shi. When Hu Shi came to the Tang family's Yaxiang shop after the palace banquet, the shopkeeper smiled and fooled the foreigners in front of him.
"You said that's what you said to brush your teeth. This is called Yaxiang. In Yuchao, we all use it to brush our teeth, but we don't need salt." Hu envoy concealed his identity, and didn't say that he saw it at the palace banquet. It was because others used it, so the shopkeeper still regarded him as an ordinary foreign businessman. "If you don't believe it, you can try it first. I guarantee that you will know the benefits of Yaxiang after using it, and you will never be able to do without it in the future."
Hu Envoy shook his head, and said in a strange tone: "What I want is not it, but the Peach Blossom Spring. Do you know Peach Blossom Spring?"
The shopkeeper's face suddenly changed. This is not to buy things, but to make trouble. Everyone in Tokyo knows that Tang's Yaxiang shop and Jin's Yaxiang shop are sworn enemies, so they can't mention it as the other side.
"I don't know, no." The shopkeeper pointed coldly at the door, "Also, please leave now, otherwise don't blame me for being rude, and ask someone to invite you."
How could envoy Hu bear this anger, he was sent to Yu Chao, and today's officials are all polite when they see him, how dare he treat him like this! Envoy Hu was anxious, and babbled nonsense.
The shopkeeper couldn't understand, and seeing his appearance, he thought it was not a good word, so they kicked him out of the door.
It was also a coincidence that Jin Jinming's horse happened to pass by. He looked down from the horse and saw that the shopkeeper of the Tang family was cursing the fool who had been entertained by the government.
His eyelids twitched twice. The shopkeeper of the Tang family didn't want to die. Jin Jinming hurriedly jumped off his horse and hurriedly stopped the servants of the Tang family who were about to reach out and beat them.
The shopkeeper of the Tang family was not afraid of Jin Jinming when he saw it. Everyone knew that Saburo Tang and Jin Jinming were born at odds, so they didn't take Jin Jinming seriously.
Said sarcastically: "Mr. Jin, I advise you not to mind your own business. This is the door of my Tang family's shop. We don't do any business. I'm afraid it won't be your turn to take care of it. Could it be that the business of the Jin family has failed? There is not even a shopper left, so you are free enough to come to other people's doorsteps to have a good time."
"Hahahaha..." Several men laughed wildly.
Jin Jinming was not angry at all, he looked at the shopkeeper of the Tang family with pity, as if he was looking at a dying person.
"Do you know who this is?"
"Who is it, a nonsense!" Shopkeeper Tang said disdainfully.
"It's the envoy." Jin Jinming threw down such a sentence, then turned around and saluted the envoy Hu, "I frightened the envoy, please don't take offense to the envoy, I will definitely report to the officials to give justice to the envoy Hu."
It was originally bought secretly, if Jin Jinming went back to submit the memorial, and the whole court would know about it, then it would expose what he had been hiding all along.In order not to let them think that the Hu people are short-sighted, and even Yu Chao's ordinary things have to be transported back thousands of miles as treasures, the Hu envoy shook his head and said: "No need, it's just a trivial matter, he doesn't know my identity, and he doesn't know my identity in your words." It's not surprising."
"There are a lot of envoys." Jin Jinming has already guessed the purpose of envoy Hu's coming to the Tang's shop, which is good for his family, so he found a step for him and said politely: "The envoys did not bring tooth sticks when they came, and they wanted to buy some for use. ?”
Hu Shi looked at him suspiciously, and Jin Jinming suddenly remembered that the Yaxiang Chips at home hadn't been officially sold yet.When Jin Jincheng brought it back, he only said that Xiong Fulang had arrangements, and before leaving, he specifically asked him to take it out when the time was ripe. It seemed that he was waiting for this opportunity.
It's just that how could Xiong Fulang count on having this opportunity?
Jin Jinming squinted his eyes, it seemed that if he had a chance, he would go to visit that Xiong Fulang who was said to be the country twin.
Jin Jinming explained to the envoy Hu: "Yaxiang chip is what the envoy uses to brush his teeth at palace banquets."
The messenger's eyes lit up, "It's the Peach Blossom Spring."
Jin Jinming smiled: "Exactly!"
The author has something to say:

After Ji Xiucai finished reading the letter, he wanted to say something, but he licked his dry lips, the words stuck in his throat and he couldn't get out.Tang Shou had no intention of discussing with him at all, and just politely invited him out of the house.
After the people left, there were only two of them left in the yard, and Tang Shou showed a look of disgust, "This official is too fastidious. I will give me 300 taels of silver for such a profitable prescription. I didn't say it, This is because I already had the intention of offering the recipe, otherwise I would be so hard on him, I will definitely not offer it."
Xiong Zhuangshan is busy paving the gravel road in front of the house, which is a road leading to the other two small buildings in the house.Flowers and plants are planted in other places, and it is muddy in rainy days. If there is no road, the shoes and socks will be dirty as soon as you walk in rainy days.
Hearing this, Xiong Zhuangshan kept moving his hands, and replied: "It's only been a few years since the truce with Fanbang, and a lot of waste is waiting to be done. At this time, when the treasury is empty, it is not easy for the officials to give out 300 taels. "
"That's true." Tang Shou squatted down to look at the road paved by Xiong Zhuangshan. Not to mention, this kind of gravel-paved path is really unique. "The thing that fascinates me the most is the plaque. With it, all the ghosts and ghosts in our Xiong family's business will have to stay away. I dare to show some things."
Speaking unintentionally, the listener intends.Xiong Zhuangshan's working hands paused slightly, and his brows frowned slightly. He took out so many things that others don't know, especially the method of earth kang, he dare not say that he can save the common people, but it is almost the same.But what his husband said meant that there were more attractive and more profitable things in his hand, and the earth kang was far from enough to look at them.For the subsequent work, Xiong Zhuangshan did half-heartedly. After he finished the construction, he realized that the gravel road was paved crookedly.
Unexpectedly, Tang Shou said that he had a very artistic conception, and this road was left behind.
Tang Shou received the letter, but he didn't rush to reply. They couldn't agree to this matter too quickly. They had to be firm before letting the officials know. They were really unwilling to give up, but it was because of the relationship between him and King Zhenbei. In terms of face, I had to compromise.Of course, it won't be delayed too much, so that the officials feel that they are ignorant.
A few days later, envoys from the barbarians came to pay homage, and the officials held a banquet in hospitality, and all the courtiers came here in full dress.
At the gate of the palace, just as Jin Jinming was about to step in with one foot, a buzzing fly followed behind him.
The person who came was Mr. Saburo of the Tang family, who was the descendant of Mr. Saburo of the Tang family, who together with him, the Jin family, and the Tokyo Zhu and Huang families were known as the four major families in Tokyo.
The two have known each other since childhood, and because Jin Jinming has always been a leader among his peers, he has become the object of praise from the elders of other families, that is, what later generations often call other people's children.
Tang Sanlang is obviously a few years older than Jin Jinming, but he still grew up listening to Jin Jinming's name. Sometimes when he misbehaves and does something wrong, he will be taught by his elders and compared with Jin Jinming.
Mr. Tang Sanlang naturally couldn't resent him for beating his parents, so this resentment was all on Jin Jinming.So although there is no major fault between the two, there is inexplicable disagreement.Tang Sanlang first entered the court as an official, and Jin Jinming later became an official. In the intervening years, Tang Sanlang became Jin Jinming's senior. When Jin Jinming's foundation was not stable, Tang Sanlang often relied on this status to suppress him.So if you look at the entire Yu Dynasty, whoever has the ability to change the gentleness and gentlemanliness is only Tang Jiasanlang.
Tang Sanlang leaned on Jin Jinming's body as hard as he could, barely touching him.Jin Jinming frowned slightly, resisted not to tear off Wen Run's mask, and beat him into a ball.
"Oh, isn't this Jin Dalang? Dalang is doing well recently. I heard the servant said that your tooth incense is cheap and still usable, but there are not many. He asked me if I could tell you to do more. He has a lot. selling point."
At first this seems to be a compliment, but anyone with a brain knows that Tang Sanlang is burying the Jin family in a disguised form, saying that his Jin family's tooth incense is only suitable for servants.The young lady in Tokyo has a good face. If she knows that the servants are also using the things she uses, she will unreasonably think that she is degrading her self-worth, and she will never use it again. threw.
Tang Sanlang looked like he and Jin Jinming were good friends, and said sarcastically: "If you can't get enough money to do so little, then tell me, for the sake of us growing up together, I can help you." .Otherwise, your Yaxiang is no longer for sale, what are my servants doing? Looking at the whole Yuchao, there is no such cheap Yaxiang to buy."
The Yaxiang of the Jin family has been slandered to the extreme recently, and he has never cared about it. After all, it is a toy for his younger brother to test the waters.What's more, with his current status, even if there are rumors, no one dares to speak in front of him, and at most they can ridicule his second brother who can't hold his breath.
Tang Sanlang was the first one who dared to slander Jin Jinming in front of him like this.
I don't know if it was because of the slandering words or the person who slandered him, Jin Jinming's 20 years of good self-cultivation was about to be broken, and he almost couldn't help but pin him at the gate of the palace.Fortunately, Jin Jinming's gentle mask has been worn for a long time, and he restrained his irritability in time.
He ignored Tang Sanlang, treated him as farting, and strode into the palace gate, throwing people away.
Officials of the Tang faction squeezed beside Tang Sanlang, looking like a crowd of stars, and flatteringly said: "Sanlang is very powerful, every time you go out, you will definitely change Jin Jinming's face, this kind of ability is hard to find in the whole Yu Dynasty. Get the second person."
"No, no, Saburo is amazing..."
I don't know what to brag about, they all became rainbow farts.Tang Sanlang was very proud of the compliment that he was the only one who could change Jin Jinming's anger, and said a lot of kind words to the old men.
Palace banquets are very extravagant, you can exchange two dishes with a glass of wine, and they are all precious ingredients.The envoy Hu was very satisfied with the hospitality of this standard, and the conversation between the two parties became more harmonious.
After the meal was finished, the maid came swaying with trays, and each tray contained two teacups and a box of tooth incense.Of these two teacups, one is filled with water for gargling, and the other is for gargling.
The maids stood beside the officials, looking at the familiar wooden box, the officials knew what it was, and sure enough, what the maids handed over was the tooth fragrance from Taohuayuan.
Tang Sanlang, who was still mocking Jin Jinming at the gate of the palace just now, suddenly felt his cheeks burning hot, so he was ashamed.
He stared at his second brother angrily, he knew that the officials would bring out tooth incense to entertain the foreign envoys at this palace banquet, why didn't he give it first.Recently, the Tang family is behind the newly opened Yaxiang shop in Tokyo.
Tang Erlang was also wronged by his younger brother's stare. Their father, who was an official in the same dynasty, had not received any news, so how could he find out.But Tang Sanlang doesn't care about these, if he doesn't find someone to divert his anger now, he will explode.
Hu Shi had never seen Yaxiang before, so he didn't know what it was. He just watched the other people dig a spoonful and put it in their mouths to rest, then spit it out after rinsing their mouths with water, and followed suit.
However, when he reached out to grab it, he realized that what was placed in front of him was not the same thing as the one in front of others, but a long strip of unknown material in front of him.The thing still exudes a slight sweetness and a strong fragrance.
Hu Shi's complexion changed slightly, thinking that Yu Chao's officials wanted to make him look ugly, so he opened his mouth to question.However, when he raised his head, he found that the officer was holding the same thing as the one on his face.The official picked up the thing and put it in his mouth, covered his mouth with one hand, and wiped it with the other. After a few strokes, he rinsed his mouth with water.
The envoy Hu turned to look at King Zhenbei on the opposite side, and found that he had the same thing in his hand, which was different from that of other officials.Moreover, the posture he uses is as skillful as that of an official, and he seems to be using it frequently, and he has become accustomed to it.From this point of view, this thing is very precious, and only princes and officials can use it, and officials cannot use it yet.This prepared him one, not to be contemptuous on purpose, but to be taken seriously.
Hu Shi was satisfied with this, but he didn't want to show his timidity, showing that his knowledge is shallow. They Hu people have short-sightedness, and they have never even seen such an ordinary thing.
He followed the example of the official, stuffed the thing into his mouth, and wiped his teeth casually twice, but he didn't expect that this wipe shocked him.
This thing itself is sweet and has a pleasant aroma. After rubbing his teeth, his whole mouth smells delicious, and his breath is completely new. It feels completely different from brushing his teeth with salt.Only after using it did I realize that it was not brushing teeth at all.
Hu Shi restrained and restrained again, but he still couldn't hold back and stretched out his hand to cover his mouth to try the breath. It smells so good, and the smell is too fresh.
The affection in his eyes was hard to conceal. If he hadn't been an emissary this time, he couldn't help asking what it was, how it was made, and how it was so easy to use.
He couldn't ask, but Hu Shi still thought that he was secretly looking at the thing secretly. He knew Yuchao's characters, and knew that the words "Peach Blossom Spring" were engraved on it, so he secretly wrote it down.
Zhenbei Wang and the officials used different things from them, and the officials also found out, but no one dared to show abnormalities.Like fools, they secretly memorized the thing and planned to leave the palace, so they searched all over the sky.
That's for the official use, and there is a better spokesperson than the official.
Their thoughts coincided with that of Hu Shi. When Hu Shi came to the Tang family's Yaxiang shop after the palace banquet, the shopkeeper smiled and fooled the foreigners in front of him.
"You said that's what you said to brush your teeth. This is called Yaxiang. In Yuchao, we all use it to brush our teeth, but we don't need salt." Hu envoy concealed his identity, and didn't say that he saw it at the palace banquet. It was because others used it, so the shopkeeper still regarded him as an ordinary foreign businessman. "If you don't believe it, you can try it first. I guarantee that you will know the benefits of Yaxiang after using it, and you will never be able to do without it in the future."
Hu Envoy shook his head, and said in a strange tone: "What I want is not it, but the Peach Blossom Spring. Do you know Peach Blossom Spring?"
The shopkeeper's face suddenly changed. This is not to buy things, but to make trouble. Everyone in Tokyo knows that Tang's Yaxiang shop and Jin's Yaxiang shop are sworn enemies, so they can't mention it as the other side.
"I don't know, no." The shopkeeper pointed coldly at the door, "Also, please leave now, otherwise don't blame me for being rude, and ask someone to invite you."
How could envoy Hu bear this anger, he was sent to Yu Chao, and today's officials are all polite when they see him, how dare he treat him like this! Envoy Hu was anxious, and babbled nonsense.
The shopkeeper couldn't understand, and seeing his appearance, he thought it was not a good word, so they kicked him out of the door.
It was also a coincidence that Jin Jinming's horse happened to pass by. He looked down from the horse and saw that the shopkeeper of the Tang family was cursing the fool who had been entertained by the government.
His eyelids twitched twice. The shopkeeper of the Tang family didn't want to die. Jin Jinming hurriedly jumped off his horse and hurriedly stopped the servants of the Tang family who were about to reach out and beat them.
The shopkeeper of the Tang family was not afraid of Jin Jinming when he saw it. Everyone knew that Saburo Tang and Jin Jinming were born at odds, so they didn't take Jin Jinming seriously.
Said sarcastically: "Mr. Jin, I advise you not to mind your own business. This is the door of my Tang family's shop. We don't do any business. I'm afraid it won't be your turn to take care of it. Could it be that the business of the Jin family has failed? There is not even a shopper left, so you are free enough to come to other people's doorsteps to have a good time."
"Hahahaha..." Several men laughed wildly.
Jin Jinming was not angry at all, he looked at the shopkeeper of the Tang family with pity, as if he was looking at a dying person.
"Do you know who this is?"
"Who is it, a nonsense!" Shopkeeper Tang said disdainfully.
"It's the envoy." Jin Jinming threw down such a sentence, then turned around and saluted the envoy Hu, "I frightened the envoy, please don't take offense to the envoy, I will definitely report to the officials to give justice to the envoy Hu."
It was originally bought secretly, if Jin Jinming went back to submit the memorial, and the whole court would know about it, then it would expose what he had been hiding all along.In order not to let them think that the Hu people are short-sighted, and even Yu Chao's ordinary things have to be transported back thousands of miles as treasures, the Hu envoy shook his head and said: "No need, it's just a trivial matter, he doesn't know my identity, and he doesn't know my identity in your words." It's not surprising."
"There are a lot of envoys." Jin Jinming has already guessed the purpose of envoy Hu's coming to the Tang's shop, which is good for his family, so he found a step for him and said politely: "The envoys did not bring tooth sticks when they came, and they wanted to buy some for use. ?”
Hu Shi looked at him suspiciously, and Jin Jinming suddenly remembered that the Yaxiang Chips at home hadn't been officially sold yet.When Jin Jincheng brought it back, he only said that Xiong Fulang had arrangements, and before leaving, he specifically asked him to take it out when the time was ripe. It seemed that he was waiting for this opportunity.
It's just that how could Xiong Fulang count on having this opportunity?
Jin Jinming squinted his eyes, it seemed that if he had a chance, he would go to visit that Xiong Fulang who was said to be the country twin.
Jin Jinming explained to the envoy Hu: "Yaxiang chip is what the envoy uses to brush his teeth at palace banquets."
The messenger's eyes lit up, "It's the Peach Blossom Spring."
Jin Jinming smiled: "Exactly!"
The author has something to say:
