Take the farm down to earth

Chapter 203 This Night Was Really Busy
Seeing that Shi Zhongkui wanted to leave, Jia Zheng and Jia She hurriedly said that it was getting late, so they might as well stay here for one night at Rongguo Mansion.

How can Shi Zhongkui be willing, he still has a psychic gem in his sleeve, and Baochai and Yingchun at home must still be waiting for him to go back.
With so many things happening today, the two must have a lot to ask themselves.

If it wasn't for when she was out of the palace, she would have asked someone to go back and tell Yingchun to stay at home, maybe she would have sent someone over to inquire.

"Yue Zhang and Second Uncle don't worry, that Begonia flower demon has been imprisoned in the small cave by my son-in-law, even if she has supernatural powers and carries a treasure, she won't even try to break through the boundary between the mortal world and the cave.

The talismans set up in the old lady's house and the formation in the courtyard of Rongqing Hall can last for three days.

And with the words that reprimanded Ye Youshen just now, the Yin Division will definitely send out troops and horses tonight.Search and capture hidden ghosts and spirits all over the capital, even in the capital.

If not, if there is another accident, the son-in-law will not report the dereliction of duty of the Yin Division to Emperor Taishan for the sake of past friendship.

The Gyeonggi City God didn't dare to hide any more, so he could only report his fault and accept the punishment from the Yin Division. "

The minds of Jia Zheng and others were immediately attracted by the words of Emperor Taishan, the City God, and the Underworld Division sending troops to arrest ghosts and ghosts.

"Nephew, is there really an Emperor of the Underworld on Mount Tai?"

"Second Brother", before Shi Zhongkui could speak, Jia She said with a worried and uneasy face, "Is Emperor Taishan something that mortals like you and I can question?"

Only then did Jia Zheng come to his senses, and hurriedly bowed his hands to the sky three times, "The villain has nothing to say, please forgive the villain once for the sake of the villain's ignorance."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly said to Jia Lian and Jia Zhen, "Lian'er, Brother Zhen, you two will bring your servants and tributes to visit the Lord City God, the God of Day and Night and other gods early tomorrow morning.

Then personally urge the family to prepare gifts and send them to Mount Tai for the emperor. "

Jia Lian and Jia Zhen nodded hurriedly, let alone refusing, thinking that the specifications should be prepared according to the highest level.

Jia Lian and Jia Rong even thought that they should also send a gift.

Even if people ignore him, he can become proficient.

In the future, if something really happens, I will have a chance to speak.

After thinking about it for a while, Shi Zhongkui simply prepared a gift list and ordered people to send it to Mount Tai together.

When there is really a request for Emperor Taishan, just like Jia Lian and Jia Rong thought, it will not appear too abrupt.

Then I thought about going to Wenchang Emperor Temple first tomorrow morning.

It has been 8 months since I passed the Huiyuan and No. [-] Scholar exams. If I don’t go, I can’t shirk it because I have an imperial mission.

Looking at Jia Rong, he said, "Brother Rong, go to my house early tomorrow morning, take away the gift list and presents sent to Emperor Taishan, and then accompany me to Wenchang Emperor Temple.

Afterwards, I will accompany Aunt Lin's family to choose the county lord's mansion for her.

As for the matter of personal soldiers, you order people to take my personal soldiers to the Zhuangzi in your house to select 300 people first.

Select the best among the best and select a hundred people to serve and receive training in the Tuntian camp. "

Jia Rong clasped her fists in ecstasy and saluted, "Yes, uncle, my nephew will go to your house tomorrow morning to wait for orders."

Jia Lian and Jia Zhen looked at each other, and thought to herself that Rong'er, a mediocre person who wants to be capable but not capable, and who wants to be courageous and courageous, can win Shi Zhongkui's favor and support him repeatedly?
As for Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng, the mood was even worse.

Yingchun is a girl from Rongguo Mansion, if Shi Zhongkui didn't bring Jia Lian and Jia Baoyu along, why did he insist on bringing Rong'er, a junior?
I heard Shi Zhongkui say with a smile, "Work hard, otherwise my uncle will not be soft-hearted and have so many scruples when he teaches you a lesson."

When Jia Zheng, Jia She, Jia Lian and Jia Zhen heard this, they mistook Shi Zhongkui not because he didn't want to help the Rongguo Mansion, but because he and the four of them were either juniors or peers.

It's really not good in face to instigate, and even punish himself and others.

That's why he was willing to bring Rong'er, a junior.

Thinking about it, he also treats Jia Lan differently. He even heard that Jia Yun and Jia Quan, who belonged to the Jia family, were taken by Xue Biao last year to work in the village and study.

In a few days, I will go back to Jinling with Lan'er to test for talent.

Jia Zheng and the others felt that their guess must be correct.

Thinking about Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng didn't think it was a big deal, after all, the more Shi Zhongkui valued his status, it meant that he was always respectful.

I am his elder, if I really ask him for something, how could he just refuse?
But Jia Lian and Jia Zhen were in a dilemma.

They say they are brothers, but they are not relatives.

Even if Yingchun is not favored because of the two of them, the grandmother and the two masters will definitely not let them go.

Jia Lian rolled his eyes, and suddenly smiled and said, "My dear brother, why don't Brother Zhen and I accompany you to Wenchang Emperor's Temple first, and then go to the City God's side, how about it?"

Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng instantly felt that this proposal was good, they were nothing more than preparing more gifts, but if they could make an impression on Emperor Wenchang through Shi Zhongkui, they would be worth a thousand dollars.

Shi Zhongkui shook his head with a smile, "It's up to you, but when you meet the emperor, I advise you to be more honest. Don't expect that just by asking the emperor, you will be able to bless you in the exam.

One is that the emperor doesn't have that kind of leisure, and every scholar cares about it, and the other is, you can't afford the price, understand? "

"understand."

Jia Lian nodded hurriedly, "I wait for ordinary people, all I can give is gold, silver, and three sacrifices, and the emperor should not like it."

Jia Zheng, Jia Amnesty and others hurriedly echoed a few words, as long as Shi Zhongkui agrees, everything else is fine.

Shi Zhongkui smiled helplessly and left it alone. Everyone went back to Jia Mu's Rongqing Hall and finalized the memorial to the emperor and the Supreme Emperor. Jia Mu, who was worried and tired all day, couldn't bear it any longer and greeted Shi Zhongkui politely. , go to rest first.

Shi Zhongkui thought to himself that this is also good, so as not to have to talk about it.

Then he told Daiyu a few more words, and was finally sent out of Rongguo Mansion by Jia Lian, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong in person.

Fortunately, my house is only two miles away, and there are imperial envoys, so no one dares to talk about it even if they meet soldiers on night watch.

It didn't take long for the sedan chair to return outside the house.

When several servants saw the official sedan chair, they hurriedly separated one of them and ran into the house.

After Shi Zhongkui got off the sedan chair, he ordered Yushun to prepare the sacrifices for Wenchang Emperor's Temple tomorrow. Before he entered the second gate, he saw Baochai and Yingchun rushing up with many maids and mother-in-law.

Yingchun hurriedly bowed her knees and saluted, then asked eagerly, "Master, what's going on at Rongguo Mansion?"

Shi Zhongkui stepped forward to hold Yingchun's hand, helped her up, and then grabbed Baochai's hand.

They said in shy and happy eyes, "Don't worry, with me here, what can happen. Besides, they are just two ignorant little monsters. You don't need to do it yourself for your husband. You can invite the generals of the underworld. Subdue these aliens."

"That's good." Yingchun didn't doubt Shi Zhongkui's words at all, and said with a slightly red face, "Master, it's getting late, you can talk to Sister Bao first.

The concubine is going to prepare things for you to take a bath, go to bed early, so as not to miss tomorrow's business. "

Shi Zhongkui laughed. Tonight, on the sixth day of the lunar new year, he happened to be sleeping in Yingchun's room.

When she knew that she had something to say and wanted to serve herself at night, she whispered it on the bed.

Nodded, "I'll go to Baochai's room first, and then I'll go to Madam's to rest later."

Yingchun hurriedly ordered Hu Po and Zhenzhu to take people to prepare. She was led into the backyard by Shi Zhongkui, and then watched Shi Zhongkui and Baochai enter the east wing.

As soon as he entered, Baochai changed Shi Zhongkui's official robe with his own hands.

He took the casual clothes from Yinger and Xiangling.

While putting it on for Shi Zhongkui, he asked carefully, "Husband, I heard from people outside that you are not worried about being coveted by others and affecting your official career because you have shown Taoism in Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion today." ?”

"Don't worry." Shi Zhongkui smiled and took the teacup from Ying'er. "There are many officials in the imperial court who worship Taoism and practice Taoism. The saints in Longshou Palace practice Taoism all the year round. Dozens of Taoist priests are also invited to accompany them." with him.

And since they know that their husbands are genuine cultivators, most officials dare not force their husbands away in officialdom.

Besides, being a husband is the leader of the six elements, and Confucianism and Taoism have long been combined with each other.

Anyone who forces me to resign because I practice Taoism for my husband will be scolded to death by scholars all over the world if I take care of it. "

Baochai thought for a while, and soon understood.

If my husband is still in the officialdom, he will always have some scruples, and he has to abide by the rules of the officialdom and not mess around.

But if he is really forced to resign, then when he takes revenge, he will naturally use some extraordinary means.

Not only revenge against opponents, but also their family members and future generations can be affected.

Seeing that Baochai's brows were relaxed, Shi Zhongkui put his arms around her and sat on the soft bed.

The ashamed Baochai turned red all of a sudden, and slapped Shi Zhongkui on the chest a few times in reluctance, but she had no intention of leaving.

Ying'er was very discerning, and hurriedly asked Xiangling to drive the little girls out, leaving only herself and Xiangling to serve.

Shi Zhongkui hugged his daughter-in-law and kissed him a few times with a smile, and then continued, "As for outsiders spying on my Shi family's family skills, it's not because my husband looks down on everyone in the world, but because my husband is confident. .”

Looking at the confident Shi Zhongkui, Baochai couldn't help but her eyes blurred with excitement, and she hugged Shi Zhongkui's waist tightly with love in her heart.

Ying'er and Xiangling who were waiting on the side were not much better.

If Shi Zhongkui is willing, Custodian can take all three master and servant to bed.

"Master."

Hearing Baochai's murmur, he looked at her confused and flushed eyes and face.

Shi Zhongkui, who originally thought he was just talking to Baochai, went to the study to have a good chat with the psychic Baoyu, couldn't bear it.

Besides, he was tickled by Bai Haitang before, and he became angry all of a sudden.

Not long after, a meowing sound sounded from the east wing.

After hearing this, the maidservants who had been staring at the Yingchun room didn't curl their lips.

Secret Dao master is good at everything, but he is a bit uninhibited.

If it were someone else, Custodian would be called obscene by these little maids.

I thought it would take a long time for the master, but I didn't expect that before half an hour, I saw Shi Zhongkui walking out quickly wearing a coat.

Just when these maids were feeling strange, or secretly wondering if the master was not in the state, not long after, cat meowing sounded from Yingchun's side in the west wing.

After Shi Zhongkui finished washing, the amber and pearls that served him had to be helped by someone to even go to the small room outside the bedroom.

And Yingchun didn't even have a chance to talk, after two incense sticks, she was so tired that she could only hug Shi Zhongkui tightly and fell into a deep sleep.

At about four or five o'clock the next morning, Shi Zhongkui woke up after only two hours of rest without being called.

Feeling that Yingchun was sleeping soundly in his arms like an octopus, he wanted to get up to practice martial arts and divine movements, but after thinking about it, he simply postponed his morning exercise for an hour or two.

Unexpectedly, after Yingchun woke up, seeing Shi Zhongkui lying on the bed with her arms around her, she screamed in fright.

He hurriedly called in Hu Po and Pearl who had been waiting outside the bedroom for a long time, and helped Shi Zhongkui get up, dress and wash.

And when helping Shi Zhongkui get dressed, Yingchun was so anxious that she almost cried, muttering something like 'damn'.

Even no matter how Shi Zhongkui comforted him, Yingchun always had a sad and regretful expression.

When Shi Zhongkui held his sword and practiced martial arts accompanied by Ying'er and Xiangling in Baochai's house, he saw Yingchun hurriedly leading people to the east wing.

Needless to say, he must have gone to Baochai to admit his mistake.

The plan for a day lies in the morning. For the ancients, it was not just about getting up early.

For a family whose poems and books are heirlooms, getting up after hearing the chicken is the prerequisite for the prosperity of the family.

Shi Zhongkui shook his head with a smile, and he didn't intend to take care of this matter, lest his intervention would cause conflicts between the two wives.

After breakfast, Shi Zhongkui saw that his two wives still hadn't come out, so he could only go to the main hall to meet Jia Lian, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong who had been waiting there for a long time.

"Forgive me, forgive me," Shi Zhongkui said first when he saw the three of Jia Lian, "Last night, I wanted to go to bed early, but I didn't expect to come to my door one after another.

I was busy until it was almost dawn, so I had time to squat for a while, but I didn't expect to forget to tell someone to call me, and I slept until now. "

Of course Jia Lian, Jia Zhen and Jia Rong didn't ask too many questions, and they mistakenly thought that it must be someone from the Yin Division who couldn't make up their minds last night, so they had to come to ask Shi Zhongkui, and it was only a busy night.

"My dear brother, you're welcome, I'm the one who came early," Jia Lian said with a smile, "Yesterday, my dear brother was busy all day, but my elder brother, my elder brother, and Rong'er felt ashamed and couldn't help my dear brother."

Shi Zhongkui laughed, and hurriedly changed the topic to the gift list sent to Emperor Taishan.

I slept well last night, and felt very comfortable, but Yu Shun really led people to work all night.

What's more, what you see on the gift list are only numbers, but in fact, there are dozens of gifts, how can it be so easy to prepare, let alone at night.

Shi Zhongkui couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction after Shun and the several stewards of Jia's house reconciled the accounts.

Smiling, he said to Ying'er who was following him, "Tell the two wives to reward Shun'er and the servants in the front yard for a month's bonus."

Yu Shun and the others were overjoyed and knelt on the ground to express their thanks.

Jia Lian and Jia Zhen flattered him again, Shi Zhongkui waved his hand with a smile, it seems that after what happened yesterday, the whole Jia family's attitude towards him has become more submissive.

After that, hundreds of people carried all kinds of sacrifices and headed for Wenchang Emperor Temple in a mighty way.
