The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 455 440 Eight: Duan Jiazhuang's Guest of Honor ([-])
After entering the house, Duan Yanqing looked at the magistrate and magistrate and said: "My lords, are you okay today?

If you have nothing to do, then enjoy a meal at my house today.

You two have never been to my house, can you give me a face today? "

The magistrate and magistrate laughed and said: "Old man Duan, even if you ask us to leave today, we will not leave. We must have a meal at your house today!

What an honor it is for your family to be sealed by the emperor today!

As magistrates, can we not visit you! "

Duan Yanqing smiled slightly.

"My lords, please give me the honor to let our cold house flourish!"

"Oh! Old man, what are you talking about!

Are you still in a cold house?

Is there such a cold house?
Who doesn't know!There are three sections in the west of Taiyuan Mansion!

There is a saying in that folk song!There are three sections in the west of Taiyuan Mansion, and it is rare to see a lot of wealth and power. If you stomp your feet in the third section, the city of Taiyuan City will tremble three times. "

Duan Yanqing smiled wryly after hearing this: "Which tongue-biting idiot made up this nonsense!

Where did this come from!

Two adults, how can our three families be so powerful?

Isn't this a joke!

My lords, such words are unbelievable!

Is there anyone who knows more about the situation of our three families than me!

The three of us are the wealthy landowners of the three families. It’s nothing special, so it’s not true! "

The magistrate laughed and said: "Old man, as the saying goes, there are no waves without wind, the people can't believe it all, but they can't believe it either!

In our Taiyuan Mansion, who doesn't know the Duan family in the west of this mansion!

The Duan family's hands and eyes in the west of the mansion are open to the sky, leading to the government and down to the common people! "

Duan Yanqing laughed after hearing this: "Is our Duan family so sloppy?
This must be the rumor, but it must not be true! "

The county magistrate laughed and said, "Old man, this is definitely not a rumor! Think about the west section of our mansion, who dare to provoke you!

The guards in the county government like ours dare not come to your place!

I'm afraid I'll offend your family!Your family's connections in Taiyuan Mansion are too wide.

Your family has a good relationship with that Chai Mansion, and you can talk to the left-behind envoy, even the Qiu Palace. Who dare you to find trouble on your territory?

Isn't that just looking for bad luck!

People like your family really want the wind to catch the wind, and the rain to rain! "

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "You two, I'm serving wine today, let's have another good meal together!

Tieniu, don't leave your father and son, let's celebrate together again.

Tieniu, is the plaque from your family the same as ours? "

Tie Niu smiled slightly.

"Uncle, is there any difference between this? They are all the same.

In my opinion, this is all an honor deliberately given to our two families by the old emperor in order to save some money!

Brother Wuji, do you think this is the truth? "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Brother Tieniu, I think so too. We can understand that the old emperor wants to save two dollars. Besides, our family does not lack those two dollars. Brother, what do you think!"

"Well, it's supposed to be like this, there's no way, we're just messing around like this."

In a short time, two full tables of sumptuous banquets were set up. Duan Yanqing's family, Tie Niu and his son accompanied the magistrate and magistrate to dinner, and the two happily led the people away on horseback. up.

Tie Niu and his son sat here and gossiped for a while, then went home smiling.

Duan Wuji had nothing to do, and immediately went to practice martial arts outside again.

Duan Wuji stayed at home for a month, until the first light snowfall, that Chai Shao came again in the morning.

Duan Wuji welcomed him in with a smile, and said with a smile: "Brother Chai, why are you idle recently?
Why are you free today! "

Chai Shao said with a smile: "Brother, you don't know yet, eight or nine days ago the government issued a document, and the old emperor has already collapsed.

The new emperor has ascended the throne.

Brother, you don't know about this, do you? "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "The people in your government know this first, we ordinary people, how do we know these things!

Besides, these major national events have little to do with us little people!

We only know three meals a day, how can we manage these important national affairs!

An emperor, whoever wants to be the emperor, anyway, it has nothing to do with us. "

Chai Shao listened and nodded.

"Brother, what you said was not bad, and it is indeed the case.

However, the name of the new emperor is Yang Guang. My father-in-law had some troubles with the new emperor before. My father-in-law asked you to calculate for him again. Is there any disaster in my father-in-law's family?

This is 900 taels of silver, you can put it away!

We can't break this distance! "

With that said, Chai Shao brought over a small silver bag and put it on the table.

Duan Wuji thought for a while and smiled: "It's okay, the new emperor has ascended the throne, your father-in-law's family will not be affected, everything is still the same.

In a few days, just ask your father-in-law to write a congratulatory post to the new emperor.

Well, a year later, your father-in-law and the others are indeed a bit of a disaster, but as long as you deal with it carefully, nothing serious will happen.

After this catastrophe passes, your old father-in-law and his son will soon have a big event!

This is called misfortune and fortune, and no one can stop it! "

"Really? That's how it turned out! Hey! Brothers, I heard that you helped Changping King Qiu Ruiping down several large villages in the Taihang Village a while ago. Is this true?"

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"That's right, there is such a thing, hey! Brother Chai, who did you listen to?"

"Is it possible to hide such a big thing from others! Actually, I already knew about it.

It's just that I've been busy recently, so I didn't come to congratulate you in time.

For such a big event, how big is it for the court to send a plaque to your family, how can I not know it!

Brother, you two brothers can really do it!Jingran led 1 soldiers to pacify the opponent's three cottages. It is said that the casualties were less than [-], and he took down more than [-] opponents at once.

It's amazing! "

"What? Brother Chai, you even know this!"

"Can you hide this from me! Who am I! My nickname is Know-it-all!

If I don't even know about this, then I'm not too hopeless.

This is called a scholar who knows the affairs of the world without going out! "

Duan Yanqing laughed and said: "Master Chai, you are a good friend of Wuji, you are here today, if you have nothing to do, then let's celebrate properly!

Um!This matter is not too big to say big, and it is not too small to say small!

Now that your aunt has been appointed as a second-rank wife, if she meets an official again in the future, she will no longer have to kneel down.

Now, old man, I have also been conferred the title of a virtuous country gentleman by the late emperor, so I have a little bit of fame.

From now on, our social status can be considered to have improved a little bit.

Mr. Chai, you are not allowed to leave today, you can stay at my house for a few days!

I haven't come to my house for such a long time. To be honest, I miss you too, old man!

Could it be that you guys stopped doing business together, so you stopped communicating with each other!
Mr. Chai, if you say to leave today, then I will be in a hurry with you! "

After hearing this, Chai Shao said with a smile: "Old man, I will listen to you today, why don't I leave?

To be honest, I have long wanted to come here, I have long wanted to eat the meals cooked by my aunt, but I am too busy and don't have much time!
I'm here this time, so I'll stay for a few more days! "

"Hey, that's a good idea, it's great for you brothers to have a heart-to-heart talk and talk about martial arts!

Hey, longevity!longevity! "

Duan Yanqing shouted loudly, after a while, Duan Changsheng ran over from his yard to the west.

"Father! What's the matter?"

"Go to Duanjiaji! Tell Tieniu that Mr. Chai is here.

Tell him to come and play for a while. "

Duan Changsheng nodded.

"Father! I know! Hey, Brother Chai, when did you come here? Now that you're here, why don't you stay at my house for a few more days!
You haven't come to our house for such a long time, and you are considered our distinguished guest. If you don't stay for a few more days, it can't be justified!

Brother Chai, you rest first, I'll call that iron ox over, and I'll be back in a while. "

After finishing speaking, Duan Changsheng hurried out.

Duan Yanqing walked into the back room and told his wife to prepare the food and drink, Chai Shao came over today.

Duan Wuji was chatting with Chai Shao to pass the time.

Not long after, that Tie Niu followed Duan Changsheng in.

"Brother Chai, come here!

Why!Brother Chai, how long has it been since you came out to play, what's the matter with you staying at home!

Don't even say it to relax! "

"Brother, look at what you said, didn't I come here today!
Brother, sit down quickly, let's sit down and have a good chat with my buddies.

Well, it's been a while since we've been together. "

The three sat at the table chatting while waiting for the meal.

The time is not too long, a sumptuous banquet can be served, everyone gathered around the table to eat, Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Two brothers, let's go, let's go to my west wing room for a rest !"

The two followed Duan Wuji into the west wing room, and Duan Wuji asked Wang Jinhua to bring tea and fruit for the two of them to eat. The three of them were drinking tea while chatting.

Chai Shao asked with a smile: "Brother, what do you think will happen in the future! I always feel uneasy in my heart."

Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "When the new emperor ascends the throne, the world will be in great chaos. However, after the chaos, the world will be in great order. Soon, the people of the world will usher in a new era of peace and prosperity."
