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

Chapter 528 520: Chai Shao was busy giving gifts, and the Golden Palace unexpectedly won a high-ranking official
Sure enough, Chai Shao rode this broken mule and followed the carriage to pick up the important ministers in the court to give gifts one by one.

Because of his shabby appearance, most important ministers look down on him somewhat!

Xin said: With this appearance, do you still dream of becoming a high official?I'm really overwhelmed!

With this body and bones, it's better to stay at home for a few years and wait to die. With such a small appearance, I don't think I can live for ten years!

This is really a man who doesn't know how to die, and a ship who doesn't know how to break!

Fortunately, the fruit he sent was a rarity, and many officials had never eaten it!

Seeing that this silly boy sent this thing, Shirley agreed wholeheartedly in a muddleheaded manner.

Many officials have never seen this thing, and they even asked Chai Shao how to eat this thing!

Chai Shao taught them seriously, and when the officials tasted it, it really was the best of the fruit!

Chai Shao followed the carriage to deliver gifts from family to family, and until dusk, this Chai Shao basically delivered the few major courtiers of the current dynasty!

Finally, Chai Shao got three baskets of pineapples and came to the residence of the old thief Yu Wenhuaji.

After Chai Shao explained his intentions, the soldiers guarding the gate saw his poor appearance and wanted to ignore him.

However, this old thief has formed a habit over the years, that is, he will accept all gifts, no matter how big or small they are, in person!

All his soldiers knew about his habit, so they didn't dare not report it!

A soldier asked: "Hey! I said you poor man, what is the name of the thing you want to give to our Lord Cheng? I will go in and let you know!"

Chai Shao laughed and said, "This is a kind of fruit called pineapple fruit."

"Pineapple fruit? I haven't heard of it, so let me go in and let you know!
Whether the adults see you or not is his business. "

After speaking, the soldier went in to report.

This Yu Wenhuaji is on fire in the house!Yesterday I was scolded by that stupid king Yang Guang so hard that I couldn't get angry.

Instead of eradicating the Li family, the father and son made Li Shimin and Li Yuanba kings.

His eldest son, Tianbao general Yu Wencheng suffered another disastrous defeat in the contest with that kid Li Yuanba, this Yu Wenhuaji was unwilling to do so!

The old fellow is on fire in the house!
The soldier came in and reported: "Sir Chengxiang, a boy named Chai Shao came outside the door to give gifts.

This man brought over some pineapple fruit, how do you see him get rid of it? "

The old thief was taken aback.

"Pineapple fruit?"

Not to mention, this old thief has fought in the South and North for many years, so he really has eaten this kind of fruit.

As soon as I heard about this kind of fruit, my hometown suddenly became energetic.

"Since someone is giving this kind of fruit, let him come in quickly!

I am getting angry, old man, and eating a few of these fruits is just a way to get rid of the fire. "

After hearing this, the soldiers turned around and left.

"Hey! I said Chai Shao, Master Chengxiang promised to see you, get your fruit and go in quickly!"

After hearing this, Chai Shao agreed, called firewood, carried the three baskets of pineapples and followed the soldiers to the main room and walked in.

After entering the room, Chai Shao fell to his knees.

"The villain Chai Shao pays his respects to Lord Chengxiang, the villain got a few baskets of this kind of fruit a few days ago, how could the villain be willing to eat it!

I plan to give it to Mr. Chengxiang, and for the sake of Mr. Chengxiang, No. [-] Middle School will make me a petty official.

Master Chengxiang, the villain kowtows to you. "

Ho!This Chai Shao can really act!

Yu Wenhuaji took a look, ho!The young man in front of him had a yellow face, and his hands and wrists were all yellow, as if he had consumptive disease.

After watching for a long time, the old thief rolled his eyes and said, "What kind of official do you want to be? Can you tell me about it?"

"Your Excellency, you can be any official. Of course, the bigger the better."

"Then what skills do you have? Can you tell me about it? When I recommend you to the emperor, I can tell the emperor!"

"I know too many things, cricket fighting, cock fighting, dog fighting, all of these I know, of course, I can also play money.

A few years ago, I also learned boxing and kicking skills from an old boxer for a few days.

It's just that I haven't practiced much for so many years, and I have almost forgotten it. "

"Oh, that's right!

Well, well, it's up to you, kid, to get lucky!

Tomorrow, old man, I will recommend you to the emperor.

Let you be a high-ranking official, now you are satisfied, kid! "

"Thank you, Lord Chengxiang. When the young one becomes a high official, I will definitely give you a big thank you!"

"Boy, you are lucky. I don't want any thank you from you, old man. I just need you to listen to me from now on."

Chai Shao laughed when he heard this.

"If that's the case, then I would be very grateful to the Prime Minister."

"Hey! I said Chai Shao! Where is your home? Where can I find you then?"

"Master Chengxiang, I am Chai Shao from the Chai family in the north of Taiyuan City!

When the time comes, just go to the Chai family in the north of the city to find me. "

"Well! That's fine!"

"Master Chengxiang, the younger one is resigning, the younger one is resigning."

Saying this, Chai Shao led the firewood and retreated from Yu Wenhuaji's room with his head bowed.

Just as Chai and Shao retreated, Yu Wencheng pushed the door and walked in.

"Daddy, who was that kid just now! Why is he here?"

Yu Wenhuaji smiled when he heard this.

"This kid is a fan of officials, he sent three baskets of pineapples to the old man, and wanted me to recommend him to be an official.

Damn, such a sick person also wants to be an official?I don't think he can survive even ten years. "

After hearing this, Yu Wencheng said: "Father, I think this kid can do a lot of things. I think he looks like someone who has practiced martial arts. Didn't he mention this to you?"

"Well, he mentioned this just now.

He is a martial artist, so what's the use?Isn't he still a sick child?

Not only did Li's father and son not suffer, but they also received great benefits!

For my father, when I think of this incident, I panic!

Damn, how can there be two kings in one family?
That's what this stupid gentleman does!

Tomorrow, I will recommend this sick man up, and give him some sand, so that Li Yuan's life will not be so easy. "

Yu Wenhua said triumphantly.

Yuwen Chengdu is not interested in these things!

Yu Wenhuaji looked at his eldest son and said: "Chengdu, that kid Li Yuanba is really too hateful, his mother, his martial arts are still higher than yours.

Chengdu, what can we fathers and sons think of to get rid of him. "

After hearing this, Yu Wencheng sighed and said: "Daddy, I remembered that when I came down from my master Qiu Chengqiu Letian, my old mentor told me that my phoenix wings made of gold are A nemesis.

That is beating drums and urns with golden hammers!

If I meet the man who beats the drum and the golden hammer, I will definitely not be able to beat him.

He is my nemesis for life!The best way is that I don't meet him.

The weapons of the two of us counteract each other,

My old mentor told me that if you are bored, you will be beaten to death, and if you are bored, you will be alive.

Until now I have not figured out what my teacher meant!Could it be that I can really become buddies with that bastard Li Yuanba?But this is impossible. "

Yu Wenhuaji shook his head when he heard this.

"Oh, Chengdu! Let's not think about these things. In my opinion, let's take one step at a time!

Although Li Yuanba is brave, he is a bastard after all!

I don't think this person will become a big hit in the future.

It's just that if the old man Li Yuan gets the help of this bastard, it will be even more powerful! "

After finishing speaking, Yu Wenhua shook his head and went back to the back room.

The next morning, after breakfast, Yu Wenhua and his son Yu Wencheng went to court early.

After paying homage to the Son of Heaven, Yang Guang was just thinking about how to give orders to Yu Wenhuaji, but unexpectedly, Yu Wenhuaji came out of the class and said: "Your Majesty, I recommend a person for you. You are a talented person in this place of the government."

"Oh! Yuwen Chengxiang, who is this person you recommended?"

"Your Majesty, this person is Chai Shao from the north of Taiyuan City. This person is extremely talented. I think that if he is recommended to be an official, he will definitely be able to keep me safe and sound."

Yang Guang was secretly amused when he heard this.

"Just now I wanted this Yu Wenhua to find a way to arrange an official position for him! I didn't expect him to mention it first.

Now I'm out of trouble. "

Thinking of this, Yang Guang asked: "

Yuwen Chengxiang, what kind of official position are you going to recommend this Young Master Chai for? "

"Your Majesty, I plan to recommend Chai Shao to be a recruiter of soldiers and horses. Let him take charge of the soldiers and horses in Shanxi, and assist Tang Guogong Li Yuan Li in managing the soldiers and horses in Shanxi.

Your Majesty, what is your opinion? "

After hearing this, Yang Guang went along with the flow.

Yang Guangniu asked Li Yuan, "Li Aiqing, Prime Minister Yu Wencheng recommended Chai Shao to be the official. Do you have any opinions?"

After hearing this, Li Yuan kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, since it is the person recommended by Prime Minister Yu Wencheng, I think there must be no difference. I just obey the order."

After hearing this, Yang Guang said to Yu Wenhuaji: "Yuwen Chengxiang, since this Li Yuan has no objection, the matter is settled like this.

Don't hurry to find that Chai Shao and come to the palace.

The lonely king wants to see him in person. "

Yu Wenhuaji was very happy when he heard this, and said to the official, "Chai Shao lives in the north of our Taiyuan mansion, go to the Chai mansion in the north of Taiyuan city to find him!
"I would like to follow the orders of the prime minister."

After speaking, the messenger went down.

In just two hours, Chai Shao followed the messenger to the outside of the palace.

The decree officer looked at Chai Shao and said, "You wait here for a while, and I will go in to face the saint, and you can go in after the emperor delivers the decree."

After finishing speaking, the messenger stepped in.

"Your Majesty, Chai Shao is already waiting outside the hall."

"Send him into the palace."

The messenger stood at the gate of the hall and shouted loudly: "Chuan Chai Shao enters the hall to face the saint!"

After hearing this, Chai Shao stepped into the main hall of the palace.

"Your Majesty, Caomin Chai Shao sees Your Majesty. May my lord live long, long live, long live."

Yang Guang lowered his head and saw that it was the Chai Shao he saw in the Li Mansion yesterday.

Yang Guang said with a smile: "Chai Shao, just now Prime Minister Yuwen Cheng recommended you to be the envoy to recruit soldiers and horses in Shanxi to assist Master Li Yuan in managing the soldiers and horses in Shanxi. Why don't you hurry up and ask Master Yuwen for help?" Thank you!"

Chai Shao took two steps and came in front of Yu Wenhuaji.

"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kind recommendation. Xiaosheng must do a good job and do his best for our Great Sui Dynasty."

Yang Guang turned his head and said to Yu Wenhuaji: "Prime Minister Yuwen, this Chai Shao is the one you recommended. Since you have recommended him, go through the formalities for him quickly and let him take office as soon as possible, so that the lonely king can rest assured." .”

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the old minister is in command."
