The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 60 Who Wouldn't Want It?

The carriage drove through the noisy market, followed by two rows of soldiers and government servants.

A pair of eyes looked at the street scene outside the corner of the raised curtain, the curtain was lowered, the chubby figure sat back on his knees, looked at the young man opposite the old god pouring a glass of water for him, and sighed.

"What do you think, those are eunuchs, you took them to the brothel, you are not looking for trouble."

"The county lord calms down."

Geng Qing smiled and handed over the cup, watched the chubby figure put it to his mouth and put it back on the short table, with his sleeves wrapped around his face, he took a sip from the cup by himself.

In the swaying carriage, he said: "For the past two days, the humble official has been thinking about how to please this person, and the county lord thinks, what does the disabled person want most?"

"It's nothing more than fame and fortune." Zhao Hongjun slapped the table, "What does it have to do with brothels? Could it be that you still find women for them? They also need to use them."

Geng Qing pursed her lips and put down the cup, and raised her finger: "What the county lord said is that everyone in the world wants fame and wealth, but they don't necessarily want women. They should want to prove the man's side the most, because they lack it."

"lack?"

In the ups and downs of shaking, the fat county magistrate was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he heard that eunuchs wanted women, but after thinking about it carefully, it was the same reason. No one wanted to prove his side.

Seeing Geng Qing's smiling expression, he probably understood that his mind was active and he had an idea, so his chubby body moved forward, and he stretched his neck to get closer: "Are you sure?"

"Xianzun remember that little bow?"

"I see."

Zhao Hongjun was stunned, recalling the scene of delivering the bow that day, the slow-moving carriage gradually stopped, and Dachun's voice came from outside: "Da Zhu, we're here."

"County Honor, please." Geng Qing stretched out his hand, took the county magistrate's arm casually, opened the front curtain, and helped him go down with him.

What catches the eye is the festive lanterns hanging under the eaves, the hall door is wide open, and a red carpet is paved at the door. Bowed men welcome and greet guests. Call down pedestrians, or sing a little song.

Zhao Hongjun got out of the carriage and saw the figure in front of him being helped down by the little eunuch, his face was ashen, his eyes seemed to swallow him up, he hurriedly moved closer to Geng Qing, and said in a low voice: "Your idea, you To deal with it, the county will take care of it."

"Yo, Mr. Geng is here?"

The man outside the door greeted the guests with a bright smile on his face. Most of the red building can be regarded as the young man in front of him. Seeing the master's family coming, he hurriedly greeted the inside. He stuffed a good-looking girl into Geng Qing's arms.

"Master, why did you come to the red building today when you have time? When you come, ask someone to come and say, so that I can leave the best girl to you alone."

"Miss Chun, you're being polite. I'm here today to entertain a few distinguished guests. Go ahead and find a private room."

Naturally, Geng Qing couldn't say clearly that it was an angel from Chang'an, so he pushed the girl in his arms back and dismissed the bustard, then walked up to the group of eunuchs, cupped his hands, and made an inviting gesture: "Chief, but from the prosperous I’m from a big city, I’ve never seen anything, and in a remote county like this, I hope the headquarters don’t think it’s shabby.”

"Our family doesn't dislike it. I just think that you must be quite courageous. I really want to dig it out and have a look."

Consultant Fu also smiled angrily, straightened the collar of his robe, raised his hands and walked in, "Jiuyu, let's go, let's take a look, what tricks can be made here."

"The boss was joking."

Geng Qing followed behind and said softly, entered from the foyer, there was a lot of noise in the room, many literati whispered softly, drinking and writing lyrics, and some merchants who had earned a little money went together to have fun, drinking and laughing with women in their arms, and started Interested, he led the girl to the room.

All these were seen in the eyes of a group of eunuchs, their faces were probably not good-looking, and before the moment of attack, they just snorted a few times.

The noise gradually went down, Gui Gong, who led the way, pushed away the "Chunxu" elegant room prepared on the second floor, retreated to the door, and bowed to invite everyone in.

Drinks and cold dishes were placed on the round table in the private room, and the turtle slave wiped the stool, knowing that the consultant Fu was a distinguished guest, first invited the person directly opposite to sit down.

Afterwards, Geng Qing, Zhao Hongjun, and the young eunuch named Jiuyu took their seats. The former took the jug and filled the wine glass, holding it with both hands.

"The chief manager drinks first."

"He knows how to do things." The first consultant, Fu, took a sip of his drink and smacked his lips. Perhaps Geng Qing's sense of humor eased his mood a lot. "Although it is not as good as imperial wine in the palace, it still has a taste of the countryside."

The words were sharp, and when the words reached here, the wine glass fell, and another words followed from his mouth: "Speak. Is it too long to make a special trip to entertain our family in this kind of place, or do you have other plans?"

Geng Qing picked up the wine glass: "Chief manager, a humble job can't have any plans, it's just because the chief manager can work hard all the way for a small county, so it's easy to entertain. "

As he spoke, he paid respect to the eunuch, raised his head and drank in one gulp.

"The heart of the fist, our family saw it, why is the county captain missing?" Advisor Fu concealed something in his words, one layer was why An Jingsi, who was acting as the county captain, was not there, and the other layer was asking Geng Qing, Why is Gao Xianwei gone?

"The county lieutenant is still in the camp outside the city, and he has sent people to find it. After all, the assassin has not been caught yet, so we should be careful."

Geng Qing's face was as usual, and it was also during this period of time that Gao Sheng and Gao Jun practiced in front of Gao Jun. His words also carried another meaning: An Jingsi devoted himself to his duties and never slackened; Assassin's hand, but the person has not been caught yet, and it may come again at any time.

On the side, Zhao Hongjun was terrified when he heard it, and hurriedly smoothed things over. The door was pushed open at this moment, and everyone in the room turned their eyes. It was An Jingsi who had just mentioned it. Let go, the eunuch couldn't hold it with an "ouch", and dropped the knife to the ground.

"Good strength." The first person on the opposite side, Advisor Fu, could see clearly that it was rare for a weapon weighing tens of catties to hang so lightly on his body. He suddenly pushed his palm to the table, and shot the glass full of wine in a swish. In the past, being firmly caught by An Jingsi, he looked solemn and held it forward: "Thank the angel for giving me the wine."

The old eunuch nodded appreciatively, "At such a young age, few people can match this strength. If you learn some advanced martial arts in the future, you may be invincible in the world. Would you be interested in going back to Chang'an with our family to show off?" ?”

"Thank you angel for your love."

An Jingsi glanced at Geng Qing who was going to get the jug over there, with a smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare to go presumptuously at the feet of the emperor, but I still want to walk to the capital step by step with my ability!"

"If you are ambitious, take your seat."

Over there, Geng Qing took the cup and poured wine for the eunuch again, and when he came back and sat down next to An Jingsi, he cursed in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Silly*"

Without waiting for the latter to respond, he raised his cup and stood up to pay respects to the opposite consultant, and started a conversation, talking about the business he was going to do: "Chief Manager, in fact, I have a gift to give today, but this A gift, you need an attendant by your side."

"Oh?"

The eunuch put a chopsticks of food into his mouth, glanced at Jiuyu who was beside him, the latter nodded his head, put down the bowls and chopsticks, got up and walked to the door, Geng Qing arched his hands and said goodbye for the time being, and smiled softly at the young eunuch Said: "Come with me, don't get angry later, after all, this is a gift for the chief executive."

"I know, just lead the way." Jiuyu didn't like this flattering villain, especially if the other party was hosting a banquet here, if Aye didn't say anything, otherwise he would have chopped him up on the spot.

Going around the corner of the railing, and passing through several rooms with heavy breathing and women weeping, Geng Qing pointed to the place where the bustard was standing, "Just over there, come with me."

Saying that, she winked at the old bustard, Miss Chun gave him a charming look, pushed the door open with a red embroidered handkerchief, and took out a small wooden plate from the cabinet, covered with a layer of red silk, flat and flat , can't see what's underneath.

"What precious thing is it?"

Jiuyu came in, looked at the wooden plate, aroused some curiosity in his heart, but Geng Qing asked Miss Chun to uncover the cloth silk, several strings joined together, stitched with silk cloth, about half a finger long, Expand into a cylinder.

"What's the use of this?"

Geng Qing opened the door with a smile and retreated outside, beckoning to Sister Chun who was holding the object: "Give him a try."

"What?" Jiuyu was stunned for a moment, and seeing someone approaching from the corner of her eye, she saw the old bustard walking over with her waist swaying, and suddenly squatted down, so frightened that she made a light effort and jumped back. He jumped directly on the bed, pointed at the woman with one hand and shouted out the door: "What do you want the woman to do? You want to die, Jiuyu will help you!"

Outside the door, Geng Qing's voice sounded.

"You promised the chief manager! Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to get along with each other."

"you--"

Inside the door, Jiuyu's voice gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sound, but then there was no sound. Geng Qing stood at the door, leaning his elbows on the fence, looking at the guests who were having fun below, and casually greeted the two. Let them drink more.

Not long after, the door behind him creaked open, and he turned his head quickly, Jiuyu came out with a blushing face, and behind her was Sister Chun, who was smearing powder and tidying her hair.

"how?"

Jiuyu didn't speak, glanced at the dressed-up bustard over there, nodded unconsciously, moved closer, and whispered: "It's so interesting. Is there anything left?"

Hehehe.
The two looked at each other, grinned, went back to Chunxu Pavilion side by side, entered the room, Jiuyu whispered something in the ear of the old eunuch, then patted his chest, and put the things hidden inside Turn it over and show him.

Advisor Fu froze, turned his head to look at Geng Qing again, his eyes brightened, ignored the flattering county magistrate, got up and walked to the door with his hands behind his back, Geng Qing rubbed his shoulders and lowered his voice.

"Arrange a room for our family."

After finishing speaking, he kicked off the hem of his robe, stepped out of the threshold, and went straight outside.

　Let’s popularize science here. The word eunuch only existed after the Liao Dynasty, so it cannot be used now, and the eunuch is an official position.

　　In the dynasties before the Song Dynasty, officials or private knife makers were used to operate the knife, and the needles were kept, and the latter were used to flatten.

　　On understanding eunuchs. The spring breeze is the first!
