The heavens begin from the golden years

Chapter 419 Yuan Xudong's dream is to be arrogant and domineering

In the early morning of the next day, the sky was slightly white, and the Xiao Mansion, which had been silent all night, began to become busy. The maids and servants performed their duties, such as cleaning the courtyard, preparing breakfast, or serving the master to wake up.

At this moment, in Song Yinzhang's boudoir, Yuan Xudong, who had already woken up, was busy sternly teaching Song Yinzhang and Yinping girl who had made mistakes. The bed made of a whole piece of agarwood seemed to be overwhelmed. There was a creaking sound, and after a long time, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but growl and lay on top of Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl, panting slightly.

As far as the eye can see, both Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl are dripping with fragrance and sweat, their faces are flushed, their eyes are misty, and they look at Yuan Xudong with gentleness like water. They are not wearing anything on their bodies. Attractive, rosy and tender skin is so delicate that water can be squeezed out, and Yuan Xudong is eager to move, unwilling to get up.

After a while, Song Yinzhang hugged Yuan Xudong's chest and whispered:

"Fan Lang, I know I was wrong, can you forgive me?"

"No, I want to punish you and let you remember it well!"

As soon as the words fell, there was another gust of wind and rain. It was not until the sky was bright that the wind and rain stopped completely. Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl also fell into a deep sleep. Not a moment later, there were two knocks on the door outside the house. And accompanied by Zhao Pan'er's voice:
"Fan Lang, Yinzhang, are you up yet?"

Hearing it was Zhao Pan'er's voice, Yuan Xudong suppressed a smirk and said:
"Get up, come in!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Pan'er pushed the door open and walked into the bedroom. When she saw Yuan Xudong lying on the bed with Song Yinzhang and Yin Ping girl in his arms, she couldn't help but spit, her face turned red, and she turned to leave. At this time, Yuan Xudong suddenly got up from the bed, hugged Zhao Pan'er from behind, and dragged her to the bed. In the early morning, Yuan Xudong was very angry!

At the same time, inside the palace, crows were singing, and the rising sun slanted on the palace's double-story flying pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings. The top three of the new divisions in indigo official uniforms entered the palace with nervousness and excitement. Ouyang Xu was in a state of mind. He followed behind the number one scholar and the second place uneasily, thinking about the appointment of his majesty, Gao Guan had ordered him to go to Gongzhou to be an official, but he wanted to leave Tokyo as soon as possible, far away from Zhao Pan'er, but it was hard to give up on Gao At the lintel of the house, there was a dilemma for a while, and his mind wandered away. Seeing Ouyang Xu in a daze, the nobleman in charge of leading the way couldn't help reminding him:

"Official Ouyang?"

Hearing the nobleman's voice, Ouyang Xu suddenly came back to his senses. This is the palace, and it is a critical moment for His Majesty to appoint an official. If you lose your dignity in front of the official, it will be too late. Thinking of this, Ouyang Xu hurriedly restrained his mind, and thanked the honored person who kindly reminded himself:

"There is a nobleman in labor, Miyagi is majestic and majestic, I was distracted for a while!"

"Hmm~"

The nobleman smiled at Ouyang Xu, and then continued to lead the way. At this time, Ouyang Xu followed closely behind the No. Your Majesty saw the moment when the official was conferred, at this moment, four young eunuchs carried a palanquin passing by, and an old Taoist with a sense of immortality was sitting in the sedan chair, the nobleman immediately ordered Ouyang Xu and the other three to stop Saluting together, after the old Taoist's sedan chair passed by, seeing Ouyang Xu and the three of them showing curiosity, the nobleman couldn't help explaining:

"This is Tongxuan Immortal Master of Chengtian Temple. He has profound Taoism and is highly respected by the officials. He is specially bestowed with a sedan chair in the palace!"

After all, the nobleman continued to lead the way, and Ouyang Xu walked at the back, and he couldn't help but glance at Immortal Master Tongxuan who had gone away, his eyes were full of envy, these new Jinshi, their treatment is not as good as that of a veteran who pretends to be a ghost, and Ouyang Xu's performance was just the opposite. The champion and the second place in the front all had disgusted eyes. They were from famous families, and they hated people who catered to officials with ghosts and gods. It's true to want to enjoy the glory, wealth, brocade, clothing, and food. What kind of shit fairy teacher is just a charlatan warlock who shows off his words!

When Ouyang Xu and the others walked to the gate of the main hall, the nobleman went in alone to report. The moment the palace gate opened, Ouyang Xu heard the official's furious voice:

"I will not kill scholar-bureaucrats, but I will never let them act recklessly, pass on my will, and anyone who colludes with Zheng Qingtian, magistrate of Qiantang County."

The palace gate was closed, and the officials' fury stopped abruptly. After a while, the palace gate reopened, and only the nobleman shouted:

"Shen Jiayan, a first-class Jinshi in the Xuanjin Division, and three other people have an audience!"

Hearing the nobleman's announcement, Ouyang Xu and the other three walked into the hall, bowed and saluted respectfully:

"Long live Your Majesty!"

"Be flat!"

Looking at the three of Ouyang Xu, the official said calmly:
"Everyone is a young talent who has read a lot of poetry and books. Today, let's not ask about knowledge, but talk about what you have in your spare time!"

As soon as the official's words fell, Shen Jiayan, who was the number one scholar in this discipline, answered first:

"Wei Chen knows a thing or two about the art of Qi and Huang!"

"it is good!"

After Shen Jiayan finished speaking, the official looked at the second place again, and the second place replied respectfully:

"Weichen usually likes piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has a lot of research on Go!"

While the No. [-] Scholar and No. [-] were talking about their daily hobbies, Ouyang Xu took advantage of the gap to quietly look at the furnishings in the hall, the plaques of the Three Purities, the purple incense burner, and the scrolls Talismans and other things, plus what the nobles said about Master Tongxuan, officials like to read Taoism, etc., Ouyang Xu already had an idea in his heart, at this moment, the official looked at Ouyang Xu and said with a smile:

"Tanhualang, I heard Concubine Gao talk about you, tell me what are your hobbies?"

"Returning to the official's house, I don't like anything on weekdays, but I like to recite the three thousand Taoism and study the art of Huang Lao!"

As soon as Ouyang Xu said the words, the expressions of the number one scholar and the second place standing next to him changed. Today's officials highly respect Taoism, and they naturally know it, but they just don't bother to cater to it. They are all reserve soldiers of the Qing school, so they are naturally labeled as the Qing school, and those who cater to the officials with the theory of ghosts and gods as their own advancement are all sycophants like Xiao Qinyan, Ouyang Xu is like this now Doing it is tantamount to betraying the Qing school and choosing to be a courtier, which is different from the number one scholar and the second place in the list. Hearing that Ouyang Xu likes to recite the three thousand taoisms and study the skills of Huang Lao, the officials couldn't help asking with great interest:
"Oh? Then tell me, what is your favorite scripture?"

Last night, I learned from the nobleman that officials like to recite the Three Thousand Dao Cang. Ouyang Xu has already made preparations. At this moment, he said with eloquence:

"This minister likes the Great Cave Jade Scripture and the Taishang Xuandu Miaoben Qingjing Body and Mind Sutra the most. In addition, this minister still remembers the writings written by Wang Xianggong when the official consecrated Zen to Mount Tai. , Can't candle, and act, the wind stops, the sky is clear, and the candle flame is still!"

"That's right, finally a young man who understands morality and magic has come!"

The officials looked at Ouyang Xu with great satisfaction. At this moment, in this hall, Ouyang Xu, the No. In the back row, he looked at Ouyang Xu and said with a smile:
"Recently, I want to give a plaque to the newly built Ziji Palace in Xijing, and I want to invite an immortal master to be the palace owner. Now there is still one imperial edict missing. Tell me, how should I draft the decree?"

Hearing this, Ouyang Xu bowed and saluted respectfully:

"Please give me the pen and ink from the official!"

"it is good!"

When the officials became interested, they asked the servants to bring up the table, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Ouyang Xu dipped the pen in the ink and took a deep breath. After meditating for a while, he waved his hand and wrote a flattery in a very short time. The flattering edict, the number one scholar and the second place standing next to him, watching him write such flattering edicts with all his life's knowledge, are extremely shameless, squinting their eyes, if it weren't for the presence of officials, the two of them would have wished to see him now Just scold Ouyang Xu, such a despicable and shameless Tanhualang, is simply a disgrace to the scholars in the world!

After Ouyang Xu finished writing, the servant handed over the draft paper on the table to the official, and the official read while reading:

"The immortal master dwells in the rocks and ravines, resists the haze of ambition, and is a man of Taoism. It is a good idea to do nothing, and his literary talent is brilliant, and he lives up to the name of Tanhua!"

Seeing such a good imperial edict, the officials were overjoyed, they actually got down from the high seat, walked up to Ouyang Xu and asked in person:

"Tanhualang, where do you want to be an official?"

Ouyang Xu was extremely excited, he tried his best to calm down and said:

"In the past, there was Rong Chengzi who followed Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and now I want to emulate him, and I will follow every official sent by me!"

Seeing that Ouyang Xu kept flattering the officials, and the officials only saw such a despicable person as Ouyang Xu, the number one scholar and the second place standing on the side were full of anger, but they couldn't get angry, secretly gnashing their teeth, extremely Not annoyed, but the officials were extremely satisfied with Ouyang Xu's flattery, he nodded and said with a smile:
"That's right, in this case, I will confer the title of Deputy Envoy of Zuo Lang Ziji Palace, who will go to Xijing for me, and invite a master of immortals to come out of the mountain!"

"I will not disgrace my life. Since I am an angel, I hope that I will go to Beijing tomorrow to take up my post and do my best for the officials!"

"well!"

After coming out of the main hall, the No. [-] scholar and the No. [-] champion who had a good relationship with Ouyang Xu drew a clear line with him, with contemptuous eyes. Dazzling, but Ouyang Xu's heart is as cold as falling into an ice cave. A few days ago, the champion Shen Jiayan said that he would promise his sister to him, but today they parted ways. How will Gao observe treat him?

Ouyang Xu went down the stairs, and at the same time, Lei Jing of the Imperial City Division took Gu Qianfan up the steps. The two passed by each other, as if their respective fates or official careers. Ouyang Xu was about to leave Tokyo, go to Xijing went to work, and his future was uncertain, but Gu Qianfan returned to Tokyo with great credit. Coupled with Xiao Qinyan's secret assistance, his future is limitless.

Fragrance and mist lingered in the hall, high-ranking officials sat on dragon chairs, and the courtiers below changed from Ouyang Xu and other modern scholars to Lei Jing and Gu Qianfan from the Imperial City Division. At this time, because of Xiao Qinyan's relationship, Lei Jingzheng, the official in charge of the Imperial City Department, asked the officials for Gu Qianfan's credit:

"This time, Gu Qianfan was not afraid of life and death. Not only did he wipe out all the crazy people who fabricated the queen's prophecy, but he also rode alone and solved the private ship fraud in Jiangnan Qiantang. He is a capable general!"

The officials put down the memorial quite satisfied, looked at Gu Qianfan and asked:
"It is indeed good. Where are you from and when did you join the Imperial City Division?"

Gu Qianfan said respectfully:
"Returning to the official family, the minister lived in Tokyo for generations, Gu Shenyan, the assistant minister of the ancestral ritual department, and Gu Mingjing, the father's Luoyuan envoy, and the minister was the No. 5 Jinshi in the second class of Yiyou Year. He was first awarded Dali to judge affairs, and passed the judgment of Jizhou. Later, he was transferred to the Imperial City Division. !"

Unexpectedly, Gu Qianfan, who was born as a civil servant, would abandon literature and pursue martial arts. The official couldn't help but wonder:

"It turns out that you are the grandson of Gu Shenyan, and you were born in the official imperial examination, so why did you abandon literature and pursue martial arts and entered the Imperial City Division?"

Gu Qianfan said neither humble nor overbearing:

"My father used to be the patrol envoy of the border capital in the north, so my son followed his father's career!"

After Gu Qianfan finished speaking, Lei Jing spoke for him again:
"The officials don't know that in April of the year Yimao, Gu Qianfan was the one who solved the arson case of the Kaifeng mansion that shocked the world, and he was promoted to the commander of the Imperial City Division because of his meritorious service!"

"Great kindness, great kindness!"

Looking at Gu Qianfan who was always calm, the official couldn't help but admire:
"Both civil and military, a pillar of talent, no wonder Xiao Xiang also praised you so much in this memorial. You have made great achievements this time, what is your wish?"

Lei Jing said so many good things for himself, Gu Qianfan also reciprocated and said:
"This case all depends on Lei Si's command. The ministers dare not take credit. Only dozens of Paoze from the Imperial City Division died in the line of duty. If the Holy Spirit grants grace, the bereaved family members will be very grateful!"

Seeing that Gu Qianfan was not greedy for merit, and was so benevolent and righteous, the officials were very satisfied and said:
"Brotherhood, the righteousness of the robes, okay, I will draw up an order to bestow the post of inspector of the Daming Mansion on the person who died in the battle of the Imperial City Division. Compassion is priority!"

"Holy Grace!"

"If you are guilty, you must be prosecuted, and if you have meritorious service, you must be rewarded!"

Looking at Lei Jing and Gu Qianfan, the official continued:
"Lei Jing, who was appointed as the governor of Mizhou in the Jin Dynasty, entered the Ministry of Internal Affairs as a security guard, and is still serving as the Secretary of the Imperial City, Gu Qianfan, the envoy of Shanghemen in the west of Jin Dynasty, the deputy envoy of the Imperial City, Xu Renfei, give me a silver fish bag!"

Lei Jing and Gu Qianfan thanked at the same time:
"Long live the Holy Spirit!"

"Be flat!"

On the other side, in Yuan Xudong's house, for some indescribable reasons, Zhao Pan'er, Song Yinzhang, and Yin Ping girl were all lying on the bed and resting weakly. Sun Sanniang was taking care of them with two little maids, and Yuan Xudong was full of energy. He walked out of the door with two guards, Xiao Yan and Xiao Li, on the way to Shuangxi Tower, Xiao Yan whispered:

"My lord, there were people from the palace last night, so it's not easy for us to do anything, tonight"

"Okay, I see, I'll go with you tonight!"

Stopping what Xiao Yan was going to say next, Yuan Xudong took the two of them straight to Zhang Haohao's Double Happiness Building. In his memory, Zhang Haohao was a well-known Tokyo prostitute who was known far and wide. With a beautiful face and a beautiful appearance, her singing voice is euphemistic and moving. She is a common man, a poor scholar, a high-ranking official, a famous family, or a wealthy businessman. Now she is 23 years old. If she were the daughter of an ordinary family, she would have married a long time ago. , but she is still a noble woman. To be honest, Yuan Xudong is a little unbelievable. She is greeted and sent all day long. Even if she wants to guard her body like a jade, can those so-called big men let her go?

Double Happiness Tower, Zhang Haohao's boudoir, Zhang Haohao was sitting listlessly in front of the dressing table, playing with Yuan Xudong's cloud-patterned gold medal borrowed from Song Yinzhang. Like a ghost, she can't get motivated to do anything, and she is out of her mind all day long. While playing with the heavy gold medal, she admires herself in the bronze mirror and murmurs to herself:

"I'm so beautiful, why doesn't a man love me?"

"Miss, what's wrong with you?"

"fine!"

Looking at the listless Zhang Haohao, the maid Xiaomei persuaded her beside her:
"Miss, you are so beautiful, there are so many men who love you, Chi Ya Nei, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Shen, etc., can line up from our Shuangxi Building to Yu Street!"

"It's different, they like me, but they don't really like me!"

Looking up at Xiaomei, Zhang Haohao lay down on the dressing table again. She continued to play with Yuan Xudong's cloud pattern gold medal, and said listlessly:
"Take Mr. Xiao as an example, he likes me, but he is not willing to give me this gold medal, so he still doesn't like me, or he doesn't like me enough!"

"What's so difficult about this? Isn't it just a gold medal? If Miss really wants it, I have a way for Mr. Xiao to give it to you!"

"What can you do?"

Zhang Haohao looked at Xiaomei, his personal maid, and said in disbelief. At this moment, Xiaomei leaned into her ear and laughed:
"Isn't this gold medal Mr. Xiao's most precious thing? If you want Mr. Xiao to give it to you, then you have to give him a treasure too!"

"What baby?"

Zhang Haohao was a little confused. Seeing this, the maid Xiaomei laughed in her ear and said:
"You let Mr. Xiao stay with you for one night. I'm sure that he will promise you anything you say. Mr. Xiao promises so much, he will definitely not count his words!"

"I bother!"

Unexpectedly, what Xiaomei said would be such a bad idea, Zhang Hao couldn't help but spit lightly, blushing and cursing:

"You damn girl, who did you learn these bad ideas from?"

"I just learned from the flower girl next door!"

"In the future, you are not allowed to play with them, do you hear me?"

"Oh~~"

Glancing at the reluctant Xiaomei, Zhang Haohao blushed and said:
"They are all the bridesmaids of the Israelites. Now that you are close to them, you don't want to marry anymore?"

"If you don't marry, don't marry!"

After taking a good look at Zhang, the maid Xiaomei muttered:

"Miss, when you get married, I will be your dowry maid, and I will take care of you and my uncle in the future!"

"Do you know what a dowry maid is?"

Zhang Hao said angrily.

"I know!"

The maid Xiaomei glanced at Zhang Haohao, blushed shyly and said:
"When you sleep with my uncle in the future, I will warm your beds!"

"Oh, what did I say!"

Looking at the shy and blushing maid Xiaomei, Zhang Hao teased her:
"Smelly girl, do you think Mr. Xiao is good-looking, so you want to be a bed warmer for him, and you sold me, Miss?"

"No, I"

Before the servant girl Xiaomei could finish her sentence, another personal maid of Zhang Haohao's, Xiao Yu, said loudly from outside:

"Miss, miss, it's not good, someone has come to Shuangxi Tower to make trouble!"

"make trouble?"

Zhang Haohao regained his energy in an instant, and Emei raised her eyebrows. No one has caused trouble in Shuangxi Tower for several years. She is just the owner of Shuangxi Tower on the surface. Said that Shuangxi Tower has an official background, who would dare to make trouble?

At this time, the servant girl Xiao Yu walked in and said excitedly:
"Miss, in the lobby on the first floor, a strange man wearing a rabbit mask thinks that our Shuangxi Restaurant's dishes are unpalatable, and the music is ugly. They are not as good as the dishes made by the cook at his house. The young lady plays the music beautifully!"

Looking at the excited Xiao Yu, Zhang Hao said speechlessly:

"He dislikes our Shuangxi Restaurant's bad food and bad music. Why are you so excited?"

Hearing this, the servant girl Xiao Yu excitedly said:

"He, he asked you to go down to serve him dinner, miss. If you serve him well, he is willing to give you a treasure. I saw it, it is really a treasure!"

"what?"
