Biography of the traitorous officials who dominated the Song Dynasty

Chapter 3 Ximen Qing’s Determination
Earl Ying stood at the scene and watched from a distance, and found that Ximen Qing had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a tall figure. He was indeed a man of great appearance and talent.

Ever since Ximen Qing met under the window the day before, the beautiful image of that woman, Pan Jinlian, has been lingering in Ximen Qing's heart.

I was really itching and couldn't bear it, and I had to marry that woman into my family.

"Xiao Ke has already heard that Wu Song's sister-in-law Pan Jinlian became your neighbor after her family moved to Qinghe County. We don't have close contact with you on weekdays, but we never see each other when we look up!"

What happened in front of Wu Dalang's house on Zishi Street the day before was witnessed by Mrs. Wang with her own eyes.

Wu Song came to Qinghe County not long ago, and the details are a mystery. He could beat the big insect to death with just a pair of fists.

Let me also ask, who in this world really dares to take risks?
With that, Wang Po hurriedly put the silver ingot back in front of Ximen Qing.

Seeing this, Ximen Qing smiled cynically, and immediately took out a porcelain plate full of silver from under his body, saying, "Money... I, Ximen Qing, have a lot of money."

Wang Po is 58 years old this year. She lost her husband when she was 36 years old. For most of her life, her fate was like duckweed, suffering from poverty and devastation.

Have you ever seen so much money?
He hugged them all in his arms and said excitedly: "It's really embarrassing for me! Since senior officials think highly of me, I will definitely devote my whole life to working hard for senior officials."

Ximen Qing nodded with satisfaction and said to Earl Ying: "Guanghou, go see off Wang Ganniang for my brother."

Earl Ying frowned, cursing in his heart: Ximen Qing is a shameless bastard, he looks like a dog, his mother is dirty and heartbroken, and he engages in such dirty deals early in the morning .

He bent down and said, "Godmother, please come this way."

As soon as Earl Ying and Grandma Wang left, Ximen Qing immediately rushed to the kitchen behind him, saying that distinguished guests would be coming to the house soon, and the food and wine would not go wrong in the slightest.

At this time, his fourth concubine, Sun Xue'e, was leading the servants in the family to be busy in the kitchen.

After Earl Ying came out of the house, he saw off Wang Po along the stone road in the courtyard.

"Wang Ganniang, what does Wudutou's sister-in-law Pan Jinlian look like?"

Earl Ying is really curious about Pan Jinlian's appearance. This is the first "famous woman" in the ages. He doesn't know when he can see her.

"Oh! She is truly a charming person. Her pretty face, white and tender legs, pink lips, and watery eyes."

Wang Po walked beside Earl Ying, and as she spoke, she couldn't help but show envy on her face.

Earl Ying couldn't help but swallow a lot of saliva, and even more wanted to see Pan Jinlian as soon as possible.

Such a big thing happened in Ximen's family this time. Everyone had their own thoughts. Earl Ying, who was eating and drinking all day long, was the most depressed.

After all, he had no idea what happened the day before, and he could only rely on his imagination.

That restless heart made him extremely uncomfortable.

After Earl Ying sent Wang Po away, he returned along the original road.

When I returned to the hall, I found that a big shot had already arrived, and Ximen Qing's fourth concubine, Sun Xue'e, had also brought all the food.

The aroma surrounds the dining table, and it’s very lively as people push glasses and change glasses.

Earl Ying stood at the door and watched Sun Xue'e wiping her jade hands with a handkerchief. He came over and whispered: "Second Master Ying, hurry up and sit down and wait for the boss. Don't be stupid." Earl Ying grabbed her wrist and asked with a smile. Said: "Where are you going?"

Sun Xue'e quickly shook off his palm and said with a smile: "Where am I going? Do I need to report to Mr. Ying?"

He didn't dare to say more, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he could only walk straight to the dinner table.

At this time, Ximen Qing had already pointed to several scars on his arms and calves.

Looking at the magistrate Li Gongji who was sitting on the side, he said: "My lord, you must decide for Xiaoke about this matter in Wudutou!"

Li Gongji was calm and composed, he closed his eyes tightly and pinched his beard.

Xie Xida, Chang Shijie and others quickly stood up and toasted, and said to Li Gongji: "Sir, make the decision for our eldest brother!"

After a long time, Li Gongji laughed dryly and said: "After all, high-ranking officials are decent people, so why did they offend our Wudu leader? That's all, just bear with it for now."

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, and for a moment they were all unsure.

Ximen Qing looked embarrassed, looked at the four brocade boxes placed beside the table, and immediately stood up and said, "Sir, please wait for a moment, Xiao Ke will come as soon as you go."

As he spoke, he hurriedly took the helpless Earl Ying and walked out quickly, leaving Xie Xida, Chang Shijie, Sun Tianhua and others to wait on Li Gongji to eat.

Ximen Qing took Earl Ying all the way to the small cave called "Zangchunwu" in the back garden. Ximen Qing tried his best to move two large iron boxes from behind the bookshelf.

"Guanghou, come and help me!"

Ximen Qing bent over and clutched one end of the box lid with one hand.

Earl Ying grabbed the other end of the box lid, and the two of them opened the iron box at one go.

As soon as he opened it, the jewels inside immediately stung Earl Ying's eyes.

It is astonishing that there are so many priceless treasures in this inconspicuous Zangchunwu.

Ximen Qing sat aside panting, pulling Earl Ying and saying, "Guanghou, this Li Gongji is a real person as his name suggests!"

"Having been a man for half of his life, he is best at taking care of things. Even trivial things can turn into big things. If we don't show him enough blood, he will not only not help us, but he will also beat us up!"

Earl Ying frowned and asked, "Brother, what happened? How did you and Hua Zixu get beaten by Wu Song?"

Earl Ying shouted in his heart: Bah!I'm 29 and you are 27, so I'm two years older than you.In order to make a living under the fence, I have to call you brother.

God knows if you become more successful, I will have to step down a generation and call you daddy!
Ximen Qing thought: "The day before yesterday, Hua Zixu was wandering on the street with two domestic slaves. Suddenly he saw a good-looking young lady making dough and making cakes. The door of the room was wide open at that time. Our brother Hua Zixu heard what the domestic slave said. She is the wife of Wu Dalang, a three-inch dinggu tree bark."

"Is this okay? I was about to walk in three steps and two steps to flirt with the woman. It happened that Wu Dalang and our brother's domestic slaves were having some trouble. When they saw each other, they started fighting without saying a word."

"My brother took advantage of the chaos and rushed in and hugged the woman tightly. The woman was frightened and ran around the room like a headless fly holding her head. Maybe my brother drank some wine and was intoxicated by lust. Heart, I will take off the woman’s skirt right then and there.”
