Chapter 135 I am a serious person
Meng Shiyu thought for a while, "How is my cousin?"

"You mean to let me restore my daughter's outfit?" Li Yulou asked.

"Yeah!" Meng Shiyu nodded, "In any case, few people would care about a boy next to me, and no one would care if you changed into a woman's clothes."

Li Yulou thought for a while, and thought in her heart that she wanted to see how these officials bribed Meng Shiyu, so she nodded and agreed.

In the evening, when the lanterns come on, the Fengxian Building in Dingyuan County is brightly lit.

Meng Shiyu took the main seat, and Li Yulou sat next to Meng Shiyu.

The fact that Meng Shiyu brought a woman to the banquet made the local officials a little depressed. Originally they had prepared a more exciting performance, but now they can only restrain themselves a little.

Everything has to be rearranged, which is really annoying.

The county magistrate of Dingyuan praised Meng Shiyu's articles a lot when he came up, and he didn't feel the praise of the great writers in the world like the stars of Wenqu.

Li Yulou believed it a little bit, because Shi Yu was really good, and the other party's compliments were very sincere, every word came from the heart.

"I haven't read Master Meng's masterpiece, and I think it's a waste of time..." Dingyuan County Judge said.

The general sentence is that he has entered the officialdom with grace, has not read any books, and looks remorseful.

It was only then that Li Yulou discovered that flattering people is also a skill, and in an occasion, someone needs to be good-faced and someone else should be good-faced.

After the polite greetings, the food and wine were served, followed by singing and dancing.

At first Li Yulou felt that their seat arrangement was just to make each other more respectful, but he didn't expect that the small seat in the middle was reserved for dancers to dance.

The three dancers are wearing revealing clothes, stepping barefoot on the ground and dancing to the drums of the audience.

Li Yulou couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when she saw the other party's bare feet and toes with bright red nails, because she thought the dancer's feet were also very beautiful, and the image of Meng Shiyu holding her feet with his palm suddenly appeared in her mind. scene.

Li Yulou's face turned slightly cold.

After a song, the dancers went down, the music stopped, and the magistrate of Dingyuan County said, "Lord Meng, you have also seen the situation in Dingyuan County, it can resettle hundreds of thousands of victims, but can the imperial court give us a million taels of disaster relief money... ..."

Asking for money so directly and nakedly.

"The imperial court has its own rules, so we can't decide..." Meng Shiyu said in a flat tone.

The county magistrate smiled, "The law is the law, it's not just a matter of adults... Our Dingyuan County is the most remote county in Kyoto. We don't get much benefit from Kyoto, but we can afford these messy things." We want more, and we are a very poor county, so it is not an unreasonable request to ask for more..."

"What's more..." The magistrate of Dingyuan County smiled secretly, his eyes seemed to say: Mr. Meng, you understand.

Li Yulou looked at Meng Shiyu and took a sip of tea.Meng Shiyu nodded slightly, and looked at the magistrate of Dingyuan County, "I will explain the difficulties of Dingyuan County to the court..."

"That's good, that's good..." The magistrate of Dingyuan County raised his wine glass to touch Meng Shiyu's distant wine glass, and signaled to Li Yulou.

Li Yulou nodded slightly and toasted.

As the drums played again, the three dancers came in to dance again, this time wearing more revealing clothes, dancing the western region dance, a very rhythmic dance.

Li Yulou felt his eyes were a little hot, but the dancer fell into Meng Shiyu's arms during the dance.

Fortunately, Meng Shiyu escaped quickly.

Li Yulou's eyes widened as he stared at the sudden scene of naked throwing himself into his arms and hugging him, a little unbearable.

"My lord, what are you doing? I'm a decent official. Let them all go down." Meng Shiyu was obviously annoyed, and stood up and said coldly to the officials of Dingyuan County.

The officials of Dingyuan County glanced at each other, and after making eye contact, the dancing girl retreated.

"We don't know if Mr. Meng likes these, so try to entertain them. Don't be angry, Mr...." the general judge of Dingyuan County laughed.

Then he clapped his hands.Soon, a woman came in, a woman dressed in elegant clothes with a delicate complexion.

Although her appearance cannot be compared with Li Yulou's, there is actually some expression between her appearance.

She was holding a box in her hand, and the box was opened in front of Meng Shiyu. Inside were yellow and orange gold bars.

"This is what we mean. Of course, if the disaster relief funds from the imperial court come down, what we should express will definitely be expressed..." Tong Juan said with a smile.

Meng Shiyu said coldly, "You guys are bribing me publicly... this is not a small matter."

"Master Meng just entered the officialdom, so I don't know what's going on here. It will be safer if you take it, and it will be good for your future..." The county magistrate's tone was cold, and the smile on his face remained undiminished.

"Are you a threat?" Meng Shiyu looked at the magistrate.

"I don't dare to be an official, I'm just a few years older than Mr. Meng, and I'm just making some suggestions as a brother..." the county magistrate said.

Meng Shiyu closed the box in front of him, "It would be nice to use this gold to help the victims..."

"It seems that Master Meng is really not going to stay on the line." The judge suddenly stood up and said to Meng Shiyu angrily.

"We just want to be more comfortable. We will do what we need to do well. Why is Mr. Meng so stubborn?" the judge said.

"That's how I am." Meng Shiyu said.

"Then don't blame me for being rude." The judge suddenly slapped his palms hard several times.

Immediately after the door, several strong men rushed in.

Li Yulou was taken aback, she never thought that things would turn out like this so quickly.

These people have planned to deal with Meng Shiyu tonight, step by step, first with persuasion, then with seduction, then with bribery, and finally with violence.

"What are you doing? Kidnapping this official? This is the outskirts of Kyoto. This is too arrogant." Meng Shiyu pulled Li Yulou closer to him and said.

"At this time, disaster victims can be seen everywhere, and bandits are rampant. Who knows what happened to Mr. Meng. If Mr. Meng can compromise and cooperate with us, it will be as if nothing happened tonight." The county magistrate said.

This is a last-ditch effort and an ultimatum.

"I really didn't grow up being frightened." Meng Shiyu said.

Several strong men surrounded him.Meng Shiyu kicked the table in front of him away.

The table fell on several strong men and was smashed to pieces.Li Yulou protected Meng Shiyu behind him.Meng Shiyu said helplessly, "You are a woman, stand back a little, everyone's business is a man, what do you want?"

"You can't let them hurt you, I can hit two." Li Yulou said.

Meng Shiyu gently blew a gust of wind in her ear.

County magistrate, general judge, judge, other officials,...

This is too arrogant.

"Then let's go together?" Meng Shiyu asked.

"Well, good..." Li Yulou nodded and clenched his fists.
