Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 10
Eighth Master slept soundly all night, woke up early the next morning, Chen Guo waited for him to wash and change clothes, and a servant had already brought a food box to deliver breakfast.It is very simple to add a cage of soup dumplings to the porridge and side dishes.

The boy said with a bit of apology and fear: "Because the magistrate eats poorly on weekdays, so there is no time to prepare in the kitchen, please forgive me, let's make it early this morning."

"It's okay, it's good like this." Ba Ye smiled lightly, with a very gentle look.

The boy was quite flattered, so he carefully waited aside with the food box.Chen Guo came forward to serve Ba Ye for breakfast.

Even though he lived in the magistrate's yamen, Ba Ye didn't feel uncomfortable at all, he sipped porridge and ate steamed stuffed buns in a leisurely manner, and seemed to be enjoying himself a bit.

When he finished using it up, he took a look at the boy who had been standing beside him, and said to Chen Guo, "He's quite clever, reward him."

"Yes." Chen Guo agreed, and took a silver key and stuffed it in the boy's hand.

The boy quickly knelt down to thank him.

"This is Eighth Master rewarding you for doing a good job, go." Chen Guo said beside him.

The boy nodded again and again, and then retreated.

"We won't go out today, let's rest for a day." Ba Ye said to Chen Guo.

"Yes." Chen Guo didn't ask any more questions, and stepped aside with her hands down.

The boy left the yard where Master Ba lived and went straight to the Yangzhou magistrate, who got up early in the morning, waiting for his reply.

After carefully asking about Eighth Master's meal situation this morning, the prefect of Yangzhou asked the young man to go out.

"Let's keep an eye on the movement over there to see where he's going today?" he ordered.

"Yes." Someone answered and went out.

Ba Ye said that he had a day off today, so he really didn't go out, not even out the courtyard gate, and just read and wrote in the house.

When the magistrate of Yangzhou received the news, he couldn't figure it out.What on earth is this eighth master going to do?
Obviously he entered Yangzhou City in Weifu, and now he is living in his mansion with such a clear identity. Could it be that he really noticed something and wanted to live in to find out the news?

If he really thinks that he will get the moon first if he is close to the water, he is wrong!This magistrate's yamen is his territory, how can he be allowed to find out the matter?

Thinking of this, he felt at ease.That thing was done in a secret way, even a brat like him couldn't find out anything.

Only on the second day, Ba Ye went out early, and asked someone to tell the kitchen that he didn't need to prepare his breakfast, saying that he was going to eat authentic Yangzhou city snacks.It's a rhythm of playing with one heart.

The magistrate of Yangzhou was sure that he was not here on a serious business, so he didn't pay attention, but the people who had been sent out to watch him before did not withdraw.

Ba Ye didn't care too much, and really wandered around Yangzhou City.In the afternoon, I was very interested in listening to people chatting in the teahouse all afternoon.

Since the Chen family and Mao Tongtong left, Mao Mingxuan went home directly after school every day, so that he could have dinner with Mao Chengyun.Today, Fang Ruohong stopped him.

"I'm in a hurry to go home again. Your sister has already gone to Beijing. Why don't you go out and have a drink with us?"

"My Ama is at home." Mao Mingxuan declined.

"A big man like you, Ama, still wants you to accompany him? Maybe he's drinking with his colleagues in the barracks!" Fang Ruohong said.

In fact, when Mrs. Chen was there, Mao Chengyun would occasionally drink some wine with his subordinates in the barracks instead of coming back for dinner.During this period of time, I was afraid that it was also to accompany him, and he went home on time every day.The father and son thought of going together.

"Exactly! Mingxuan, it's been a while since you drank and composed poetry with us." Another person came out to persuade him.

"It doesn't matter, I will never let you go today. I will send someone to deliver the letter to the Garrison Mansion." Fang Ruohong took Mao Mingxuan's hand as he spoke, and waved directly at the servant beside him.

The boy was also clever, and ran away in no time, before Mao Mingxuan had time to speak.

"Well, it's hard to turn down the hospitality, so it's meaningless for me to refuse." Mao Mingxuan laughed.

"That's right!" Fang Ruohong laughed.

A few people went to a restaurant they frequented.

"The shopkeeper is still in the old position." As soon as they entered, several people went to the second floor.

"Oh, Mr. Fang, I'm sorry today, the private room by the window on the second floor is already occupied." The shopkeeper apologized.

"Shopkeeper, you are wrong. We haven't been here for a few days, and you forgot?" Someone said dissatisfied.

Because of the face of Fang Ruohong, the prefect's son, the private room on the second floor has always been reserved for them.Even if someone wants it, it is said that it has been ordered first.It's strange today.

The shopkeeper said with a bitter face: "It's not that the little ones forgot, even the young ones can't afford to offend them." Then he looked at Fang Ruohong and said, "Mr. Fang, it's your servant who can't be neglected."

Everyone looked at Fang Ruohong in unison. It was obvious that the magistrate had ordered his servant to speak out.

"So it's him." Fang Ruohong suddenly realized.

His Ama didn't let him see that person, but he specifically told him that it was the eighth elder brother of the current emperor, who came to Yangzhou on business and temporarily stayed at their residence.Let him be more respectful if he bumps into him on weekdays.

"Who! Is there someone from above?" someone asked.

Mao Mingxuan's heart skipped a beat and he glanced upstairs.

"En." Fang Ruohong replied vaguely, without expressing it clearly, he just asked the shopkeeper, "Are there any other private rooms?"

"I'm really sorry today, there are already customers for everything else." The shopkeeper complained in his heart, who knew that today was such a coincidence.

"It seems that we are going to change places today." Fang Ruohong laughed, but was not angry.

"I'm really sorry today, next time the young masters come, I'll treat you for free." The shopkeeper hurriedly smiled with him.

"Okay, I can't blame you for this matter." Fang Ruohong didn't care about it, and said to Mao Mingxuan and the others: "Let's go, let's go to Deyue Tower to try our luck."

"Let's forget about it today. At this time, I'm afraid Deyuelou will not have a private room. I'll be the host to make amends for everyone! Today is my hour of delay." Mao Mingxuan said with a smile.

At this time, there was movement on the stairs, and everyone looked up subconsciously, and saw a person coming down from the upstairs, and said to the shopkeeper: "Our master has used it, pay the bill, the private room is given over to these young masters."

After all, Chen Guo came out of the palace. Even though she was only a eunuch, she was also the chief eunuch next to the prince, so her tone was a little arrogant and condescending.

The shopkeeper hurriedly said to Fang Ruohong with a smile, "Young Master Fang, look, should you stay?"

Although he knew the identity of the person upstairs, Fang Ruohong didn't like the smell of charity, so he said, "Forget it, I'm not interested today, we'll come back another day." After finishing speaking, he didn't even look at Chen. With one glance, he turned and left.

As soon as he left, Mao Mingxuan and others naturally followed him.

Now the shopkeeper was a little embarrassed, Chen Guo didn't know what to say when she saw her face change slightly.
