Qin Shizhi's Confucian junior master

Chapter 215, Zhang Liang assisted Shu
Hearing that Qu Yi did not participate in the award of Widow Qing, Chen Shu felt that the heavens were on his side. Although Ziyou was a special envoy, he was an outsider after all, and the award could not bypass Qu Yi, the sheriff.Ziyou bypassed Qu Yi, which meant that Ziyou believed that Qu Yi was not qualified to be a widow, and this was a humiliation to Qu Yi, the sheriff.

Chen Shu was still thinking about how to win over Qu Yi. Before he saw that Ziyou had a lot of opinions on Qu Yi, and he didn't even participate in the wind banquet, so he thought of inviting Qu Yi to have a talk and see Qu Yi's attitude, but these days He came to Quyi and was invited, but he didn't expect Ziyou to provide him with an opportunity.

"Send someone to send an invitation card and invite Governor Qu to come to the mansion to have a talk." Chen Shu said to the steward. He had shown his favor to Qu Yi many times before, but Qu Yi did not accept it, but now it is different. He has suffered unprecedented humiliation, and now he is full of anger. Once a person is angry, his reason will be messed up. Now is a good opportunity for him to win over.

The steward went to the sheriff's mansion with a luxurious invitation card. At this time, Qu Yi's face was gloomy and terrifying, and the government memorials on the table were casually discarded.

"My lord, the steward of the Chen residence is seeking an audience." A small official said cautiously.

"The Chen family is in charge? No see." Qu Yi said coldly,

"No." The little official wanted to say something more, but when he saw Qu Yi's gloomy face like a deep pool, he didn't dare to speak any more.

Looking at the back of the little official who was about to leave, Qu Yi said in a deep voice
"Wait, let him come over."

"promise."

The steward looked at the little official who was wiping the sweat from his forehead and said,
"My lord, how is the situation?"

"The prefect promised to see you, but be careful what you say, the prefect is in a bad mood right now." The little official reminded him kindly.

"Thank you, my lord." The steward bowed his hands in thanks, a gleam of light flashed in the steward's eyes, and he followed the little official into the sheriff's mansion.

The little official led the steward to the place where Qu Yi was working. After entering the room, the steward quickly inspected the room, looked at Qu Yi with a gloomy face, and immediately cupped his hands and said,

"Little man, Chen Chang pays his respects to the prefect."

"Patriarch Chen asked you to visit me, why?" Qu Yi put down the memorial in his hand and said.

"My lord, the Patriarch asked me to hand over this invitation to your lord, but the patriarch said please don't decline, this time it's just a meeting of friends." said the steward.

The little official took the invitation and handed it to Qu Yi, who opened the invitation and put it on the table.

"Forget it, when Patriarch Chen agreed to go over the mansion, you go back first, and I will go over later." Qu Yi said in a deep voice.

"No, the villain will go back and reply the good news to the Patriarch." The steward said.

Qu Yi waved his hand, and the little official made a gesture of invitation to the steward. After the steward left the sheriff's mansion, he returned to the Chen mansion without stopping, and found Chen Shu who was reading in the study.

"How is it?" Chen Shu asked when he saw the steward.

"Patriarch, the prefect agreed and said he would come later." The steward said.

"How does the sheriff look?" Chen Shu asked.

"When the subordinates entered, the prefect was working, but the prefect's face was gloomy and uncertain. The government affairs on the table were very messy. It seemed that he was working, but in fact there were not many people who were dealing with them. There seemed to be signs of fighting in the room, and there were some on the ground. ink." The steward said.

Relief appeared on Chen Shu's face, as he expected, Qu Yi only had boundless anger at the moment, trembling in Shu County for five years, but was reprimanded and humiliated because of an unresolvable legacy problem, this would be felt by anyone. Anger and shame.

"Order my servants to prepare a banquet, and ask them to bring out the fine wine from Beidi County collected in the wine cellar. Tonight I will have a big banquet for the county guard." Chen Shu said.

"Patriarch, there is one more thing." The steward said.

"What's the matter?" Chen Shu asked.

"When I came back just now, the spies received the news that the guest from the south has arrived and is currently in the inn. Do I need to bring him to the house?" the steward asked.

"No need, the order has been passed down on the mountain to lead people up the mountain directly. If you take the lead at this time, it will inevitably attract suspicion, and the gain will not be worth the loss." Chen Shu said, Chen Shu looked at the Shu Mountain outside the window, his eyes were full of disdain.

Chen Shu couldn't understand the remnants of the Shu royal family on Mount Shu. They were just a group of wild wolves with ambitions but no corresponding abilities. If it wasn't for the need for a person in front of the stage to occupy the name, he would have kicked them out of this layout a long time ago. bingo.Chen Shu is fully sure that people from the south will not hesitate to regard themselves as their first partner when they see the situation on Mount Shu.

All of a sudden, the whole Chen residence became lively, and a large number of maids and domestic servants began to be busy. As the weather got darker, Chen Shu led people to wait for Qu Yi's arrival at the door, and Qu Yi leisurely appeared at the corner on a horse. .

Looking at Chen Shu who was greeted by the gate of the Chen Mansion, Qu Yi's face showed a hint of surprise. When Qu Yi arrived at the gate of the Chen Mansion, the steward at the side stepped forward to hold the horse.

"The magistrate is here, the house is really full of splendor." Chen Shu said with a salute.

Qu Yi got off his horse, and said to Chen Shu
"Patriarch Chen is too polite, please forgive me for disturbing the family."

"How could it be? It is an honor for everyone in Chen's residence that the prefect can come to the Chen residence. Please, my lord prefect." Chen Shu said.

"Then I won't be polite." Qu Yi said with a smile.

The people around also laughed, surrounded by servants, Qu Yi and Chen Shu came to the banquet hall, they sat in front of the table, Chen Shu waved, the steward immediately ordered the maids to start serving dishes, followed by delicate dishes. The delicacies were served on the table, and every dish was expensive, and most people couldn't eat it.

"Master Taishou, this is the decades-old fine wine that the Chen family caravan accidentally obtained in Beidi County. Would you like to try it?" Chen Shu filled Qu Yi's wine glass. , Qu Yi had been in Shu County for five years, because of the long distance, Qu Yi did not have the opportunity to return to his hometown, Beidi County.

Hearing that it was the fine wine from Beidi County, Qu Yi didn't refuse and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then closed his eyes and slowly felt the taste of his hometown that he had missed for a long time, seeing the nostalgic expression on the child Qu Yi's face Chen Shu knew that half of the work tonight had been completed, so he filled Qu Yi's wine glass again.

"My lord, don't just drink alcohol. I know that your lord has worked hard for Shu County for five years and has never returned to his hometown once. Therefore, the dishes this time are made by famous chefs from Beidi County, and the ingredients are all transported from Beidi County. My lord Come and taste it." Chen Shu said.

As the two moved their chopsticks to eat, the gorgeous dancers began to dance in the hall, and the musicians also began to play music. Qu Yi and Chen Shu chatted and exchanged glasses with a smile. An hour later, Qu Yi had already scored five points. Drunk, took Chen Shu's hand and said
"Thank you Brother Chen for your hospitality this time. I, who haven't been home for several years, can feel my hometown again."

"Your Majesty, you are being polite." Chen Shu was interrupted before he could finish speaking.

"Today there is no sheriff, only friends, you don't mind calling me Brother Qu." Qu Yi said angrily.

"It's my fault, brother Qu, your contribution to Shu County is obvious to all the people of Shu County. These years, the great governance of Shu County cannot be done without the governance of you, the prefect. It is also because of Shu County that you have not been able to go home for several years. Visiting my hometown, today I am just thanking Brother Qu on behalf of the elders of Shu County." Chen Shu said with a natural look.

"Yeah, I can't say that I have contributed to the past five years, but I have also worked hard. What I have worked hard for five years has been a humiliation. The banditry in Shu County was not caused by me. After I took office, I suppressed it many times. Although banditry has not completely eliminated the banditry, it has guaranteed the safety of business and the common people." Qu Yi had a look of resentment.

"I've also heard about this matter. Master Wang has some objections to the banditry. It's because he doesn't understand the situation in Shu County and the steepness of Shu Mountain. Brother Qu, don't worry. If Master Wang wants to embarrass Qu Brother, we and the big clan and the common people will definitely not agree." Chen Shu continued.

"Brother Chen, I don't know. This Master Wang has a lot of objections to me. According to the regulations, I should be with Lord Master Wang for this award, but Master Wang directly bypassed me and went alone without even bringing a Guard, hehe, it seems that my position as Sheriff is coming to an end." Qu Yi laughed at himself.

"Brother Qu, don't say such words. The abolition of the county guard is not decided by Master Wang, but by the king. How could the wise king not see the credit of brother Qu?" Chen Shu said.

"Forget it, forget it, brother Qu still doesn't know, our great king obeys Master Wang's words, and it's not without reason that I was humiliated like this. Back then, the former Changxin Hou Lai'ai's family was demoted to Shu County. I helped one or two, so I was hated. Wang Shinai eradicated it himself, and even persuaded the king to eradicate the roots, but the king had a heart of benevolence and did not agree. I happened to help these people, so Wang Shi They are so hostile to me. It’s ridiculous that Wang Shi’s guards are probing around in the city recently, wanting to find out my problems and take revenge on me.” Qu Yi said with a tear streaming down his face, looking like a A meritorious minister who was wronged.

"Brother Qu is serious. I believe that the king is wise and will definitely not let you suffer unjust injustice."

Chen Shu knew that the matter was done, and it was time for the seed to take root and germinate. Chen Shu filled Qu Yi's glass again, and Qu Yi fell asleep after drinking it. Chen Shu looked at the drunken Qu Yi.

"Send Governor Qu to the wing room, let him rest well, and let these two dancers go to bed." Chen Shu said, pointing to the two most beautiful dancers.

"No." The steward said to Chen Shu.

Looking at the back of the steward leading Qu Yi away, Chen Shu stroked his beard, and there was a sense of pleasure on his face. Although the Qin law was strict and the officials did not dare to violate it, it did not mean that the big clans like them could not corrupt these people. Officials, after all, officials are also human beings, and human beings have weaknesses, and they just need to follow this weakness to slowly corrupt.

At this time, in a remote inn in Chengdu, three people in black robes were waiting for something, when suddenly a man dressed as Yu Yuan's guard and wearing a mask came to the room of the inn.

The moment the masked man entered the room, he was caught by a sharp sword.

"I'm Chief Yu, and I'm here to pick you up. Which one of you is Mr. Zhang Liang?" the masked man whispered, and took out a jade pendant after speaking.

Seeing the jade pendant, Zhang Liang took off his black robe and took out an identical jade pendant from his bosom.

"Please forgive me, our identities are sensitive and we have to be careful." Zhang Liang saluted.

"Mr. Zhang Liang, you are being polite. We are all the same people. It is natural to be careful. Please pack your things and go up the mountain with me. Shu County has undergone other changes, which may be dangerous." Yu Zhang said.

"What happened in Shu County?" Zhang Liang asked.

"Qin Wang's special envoy, Ziyou, came to reward the widow Qing, because he was robbed by mountain bandits on the road, so he wanted to eliminate the banditry on Shu Mountain." Yu Chang said.

"Mr. Ziyou!?" Zhang Liang's eyes were full of surprise and fear.

"So it's very dangerous here. Please follow me up the mountain. The Shu Mountain is extremely dangerous and cannot be touched by the Qin State. It is absolutely safe. All our troops are on the top of the Shu Mountain." Yu Chang said.

"Let's leave immediately without delay." Zhang Liang said, he was not only afraid of Ziyou, but even a little afraid, he had an intuition that if he stayed here, he would definitely be discovered.

Zhang Liang put on the hood again, followed Yu Chang and left the inn overnight.
