The rise of the poor

Chapter 608 How to break it

When I lost it at the beginning, it was easy and casual;
Now when picking it up, it is extremely heavy, like a hot potato.

Painful realization……

Yan Nian anxiously picked up the invitation card from the ground, and handed it to the maid in front of the sedan chair. The maid took the invitation card, wiped it with a handkerchief, and then sent the invitation card into the sedan chair.

Yan Song glanced at Yan Nian outside the sedan chair, and then took the invitation.

The greeting card is rectangular, seven inches long and three inches wide, which is the standard greeting card style popular in Ming Dynasty, but the difference is that this greeting card is red.In Daming, the paper used for worship posts was very particular. Generally, officials used white worship posts, while officials of the Imperial Academy used red.

Oh

It turned out to be a Hanlin, no wonder the handwriting was so good, Yan Song nodded, and then opened the greeting card.

"The late Zhu Ping'an would like to pay homage to Master Yan, and the Imperial Academy read Zhu Ping'an's letter on May 31, Jiajing [-]."

Well

Zhu Pingan!
This letter of worship turned out to be from Zhu Pingan!

When Yan Song saw the three words "Zhu Ping'an" in the greeting post, he thought of Xu Jie's Qingci poem "Turn a tiger into a dragon and return to the heaven". It turns decay into magic.

This imperial city is really evil, if you say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.Just now I was thinking about this restless kid, but I didn't expect this kid to be right under my nose.

Good

Then meet this sticky rock.

You are still young, even if you line up, you can lose the greeting card.

Yan Song stroked his white beard slightly, folded the greeting card and put it aside, opened the sedan chair curtain and told Yan Nian outside, "Go and call Zhu Ping'an, and come into the house with me."

ha?
Call Zhu Ping'an? !Enter the house together? !

When Yan Nian heard the words, it was as if a thunder had exploded above his head, and his face suddenly turned gray. He couldn't believe his ears. He didn't expect the worries in his heart to come true, and he drove away a sixth-rank official Well, it's normal. I've done this kind of thing a lot before and it's okay. Why did something happen today?

This damn Zhu Pingan! ! !
Yan Nian gritted his teeth in hatred for Zhu Pingan.

"What? Hmm." Seeing this, Yan Song hummed, and asked again, "Has he already entered the mansion? This kid is quite fast."

Already entered the mansion?

How could it be possible to enter? Everyone was driven away by me.

Yan Nian heard the words, like falling into an ice cave, cold from the soles of his feet to the bottom of his heart, his brain was at a loss, he didn't know how to answer, and stood there stupidly, poking the ground like a log.

"Speak." Yan Song was a little impatient.

"Master, Mr. Zhu Zhuping, he just left. Seeing that there were many people in line, he wanted to jump in line, but the villain thought it was against the rules, so he refused to let him. Unexpectedly, he lost the invitation card in anger and left. "

Hearing his master's angry tone, Yan Nian babbled, stammered and organized his speech, then picked himself up and put all the responsibility on Zhu Ping'an.

All the scapegoats were pinned on Zhu Ping'an's head.

Knowing a son is like a father!
Knowing the servant is like the master!
Yan Song was able to achieve the current position, and his resolution is the best in Ming Dynasty. If he believed in Yan Nian, he would not be able to achieve the current position.

"Tell the truth." Yan Song glanced at Yan Nian.

"Master, I, I can't say a word." Yan Nian said without confidence.

However, Yan Nian was only interrupted by Yan Song in the middle of his words.

"Tell me, I want to listen to the truth." Yan Song pointed to the porter standing behind Yan Nian, and said something flatly.

"Yes, master." The concierge who was called by Yan Song stood up from behind Yan Nian in a daze. He used to always want to show himself in front of Yan Song, but at this moment his heart was like a dog.The concierge looked up at Yan Song, then at Yan Nian, a little unsure whether he should tell the truth.

Yan Song is the elder, and Yan Nian is his immediate boss.How to break?
"cough……"

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and Yan Nian coughed softly at the right time.

The cough made the porter tremble all over, he gritted his teeth as if he had made some kind of decision, and prepared to speak as if he was going to the execution ground.

"Remember your last name..."

Yan Song glanced at the concierge, pointing out the small movements between the two.

"Yes, sir. The thing is..."

Hearing the words, the concierge rested from his careful thoughts just now, and as a small concierge, he still wanted to cover up in front of the master.

When the concierge told the truth, Zhu Ping'an had already walked out of West Chang'an Street, turned a corner to another street, and returned to Linhuaihou Mansion along the original road.

As expected, I am not the protagonist, even if I visit you, I will be kicked out...

Zhu Pingan laughed at himself and returned along the same road. When he passed a restaurant, he sneezed twice for no reason.

Is someone thinking of me?
Zhu Pingan rubbed his chin, then shook his head and smiled, don't you want to be so superstitious.

As usual, Zhu Pingan walked past the restaurant and turned into a street next to the restaurant. There was a small alley at the end of the street. From this small alley, he could walk to Linhuaihou's mansion faster, and the distance could be shortened by about ten minutes.

When Zhu Ping'an turned into the street next to the restaurant, seven or eight people who combed their hair and camphor walked out of the restaurant, following Zhu Ping'an from a distance.

When Zhu Pingan walked into the alley, he felt something was wrong. When passing by this alley on weekdays, he could almost only hear his own footsteps, but today he heard several footsteps behind him, which were deliberately lowered. .

Why do you keep your footsteps down while walking?
Either rape or steal!

Zhu Pingan realized that something was wrong, and when he was walking, he glanced at the back with his corner of the eye, and found that he was followed by a few rogue-eyed guys who didn't look like a good person at first glance.

quicken your pace
The people behind also quickened their pace.

This made Zhu Ping'an more sure of his guess, and looked at the alley in front of him, uh, this is a good place to play sap.

However, now that I have just entered the alley and is relatively close to the street, they probably won't do anything here, but after a few minutes of walking, maybe they will.

So, there are still a few minutes of golden reaction time.

calm
Do not worry.

How about running straight away?
Zhu Pingan thought for a while and then denied this idea. Although he is not a frail scholar, he is definitely not as good as them in terms of physical fitness. If he runs away at the beginning, then they will definitely chase him directly. was overtaken.

Find someone to hide in?
This is possible, but Zhu Ping'an denied it after walking a few steps forward. This alley is mostly the back door of people's houses, and the few houses passing by the back door are also locked from the inside.If you can't get in, how can you hide?

So the question is, how to break this game?
