Mingshi

Chapter 843

"I also played Xu Jie and Zhang Shijie today..."

Lu Bing softly recounted what happened today, Luo Xin pondered for a while and said:
"Your Majesty will definitely send someone to the southeast to investigate. We must also pay close attention to the southeast. We must not let Daming Maritime Trade have an accident."

"Don't worry!" Lu Bing laughed softly, "That's my family's money."

"Hehehe..." Both of them laughed.

"By the way, no, why do you need so much iron? To be honest, His Majesty asked me to check this. You don't want to rebel, do you?"

Luo Xin rolled his eyes and said, "Can you be serious?"

"Hehehe..." Lu Bing couldn't help laughing out loud. He naturally knew that Luo Xin would not rebel, otherwise he wouldn't be pulling iron from the Ministry of Industry to his home with great fanfare. Such a rebellion is no different from a fool .However, there was still curiosity on his face and he said:

"What are you doing? My brother is really curious."

"If you're curious, I'll take you to see it!"

Luo Xin said indifferently, at this time, Lu Daqing had already left quickly, and when Luo Xin and Lu Bing came to the yard, Lu Rudai had already left.

"Come, sit!"

Luo Xin called Lu Bing to sit down, then picked up the frame of the children's tricycle and began to display it, then led Lu Bing to the blacksmith's room to have a look, and gave him bearings and other things, so that Lu Bing's face could be seen His muscles twitched, thinking:
"You are a dignified Marquis, a dignified Confucian, the left concubine of Zhan Shifu, you actually have a group of craftsmen at home to make small cars for future children? And you are also very excited..."

"That... no weapon... my brother will leave first..."

"Don't go!" Luo Xin continued to say, "I haven't told you about this chain yet..."

Lu Bing waved his hands again and again and said, "No, you don't need to talk about it, and I can't understand it even if I say it. By the way, don't forget about tomorrow's court meeting."

"Grand Court Meeting?" Luo Xin was stunned for a moment, and then said: "It has nothing to do with me, my grade is not enough."

"No!" Lu Bing originally walked out a few steps, then stopped and said, "Who knows if you will be recruited into the palace suddenly at that time? Such a thing has not happened before, so whenever the court meeting, All the officials will be on duty, if you don't believe me, you can go to Zhan Shi's Mansion tomorrow to see if those old fritters in Zhan Shi's Mansion are there?"

"That's it!"

Luo couldn't help but tremble in confidence. If it was really like what Lu Bing said, he skipped work to make baby carriages at home, and Emperor Jiajing suddenly recruited him into the palace, it would be a big disaster.Now he saluted Lu Bing and said:
"Thank you sir!"

"No thanks, let's go, let's go!"

After Luo Xin sent Lu Bing away, he walked back slowly, thinking about the southeast, and suddenly remembered what Zhao Zhenji had said to him, and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing:

"Tomorrow's court meeting, I'm afraid it will not be peaceful!"

He also lost his mind to watch the craftsmen making small cars, and returned to the study, slowly sorting out his thoughts.

the next day.
Luo Xin came to Zhan Shifu early.

Hey!
Zhan Shi's Mansion, which had always been deserted, was very lively at this time. People walked by in the yard from time to time, and chatter and laughter could be heard from every room.

"Rhoda people!"

"Oh, my lord..."

On the way Luo Xin walked towards the courtyard that his concubine Zuo was in charge of, he met officials he didn't know from time to time. Where did Luo Xin get to know these people? These people didn't go to work several times a year, and Luo Xin used to If you can't get in touch with them, you naturally don't know them, and you can't call their names.However, Luo Xin didn't know them, but it didn't mean they didn't know Luo Xin.

Luo Xin greeted strangers along the way and came to his territory, "Hula La" came out a group of people, wearing patched official uniforms, and came forward to greet Luo Xin with smiles on their faces.

Ma Qingshan squeezed out from the crowd, cupped his hands and said, "My lord, let's go to the lobby."

"Let's go together!" Luo Xin cupped his hands.

"Sir, please!"

"Everyone please!"

The crowd surrounded Luo Xin and entered the lobby. Luo Xin was the first to sit down. After sweeping his eyes, he realized that there were not many chairs in the room, and everyone was standing.Looking at the dilapidated appearance around him, Luo Xin's expression froze.However, those officials from Zhan Shifu seemed to be used to this kind of environment, so Ma Qingshan introduced these officials to Luo Xin one by one, and everyone really got to know each other.Afterwards, Luo Xin left Ma Qingshan behind, and sent out the rest of the people. He was the only one sitting here, and the others stood in two rows, as if he was the emperor. He himself was not at ease.After those people had left the lobby and returned to his room, Luo Xin asked Ma Qingshan to sit down, and said with a self-deprecating look on his face:

"It's really not easy to meet everyone!"

"This..." Ma Qingshan really couldn't figure out what Luo Xin meant, and he was also afraid that Luo Xin would rectify Zhan Shifu. If that happened, they would not be able to survive.Looking at Ma Qingshan's constipated appearance, Luo Xin waved his hands and said:
"Don't worry, tell them what to do, it's business as usual. You can't let everyone starve to death."

Speaking of this, Luo Xin couldn't help laughing at himself: "In Daming, starving to death as an official is really a big joke."

"Hehe..." Ma Qingyun also smiled bitterly: "We are all from poor families... Sigh..."

After speaking, there was only a long sigh.

Luo Xin also felt speechless, and suddenly felt a lack of interest while sitting there.Ma Qingshan cupped his hands and said:
"My lord, at noon today, I will invite you to the Taibai Building across from the official gate..."

Luo Xin squinted at him: "Do you still have money to treat guests? Are you still in Taibailou?"

"This..." Ma Qingshan blushed and said, "Everyone joins in, we can't make high-end banquets, but we can still make ordinary banquets."

Luo Xin did some calculations, and counting himself on the Zuo Shuzi's side, there are a total of 26 people, which is enough for three tables, so he waved his hands and said:

"Forget it, you go to the opposite Taibai Restaurant and book three tables and wait for the banquet, and I will treat you."

"How can I ask the adults to treat you..."

"If you don't pull it down, I will fix it myself."

Seeing that Luo Xin had stood up, Ma Qingyun dared to ask Luo Xin to fix it himself, so he hurriedly said:

"I'm going, I'm going!"

"You don't need to go!" Luo Xin walked out of the lobby and gave Lu Daqing a few words, and Lu Daqing went to order the banquet. Luo Xin turned to look at Ma Qingyun and said:

"I'll leave it to you to notify them."

"No problem, leave it to the next officer! Thank you, my lord." Ma Qingyun went out with a smile. After a while, there was cheers outside, and Luo Xin shook his head, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart. This is how happy Taibailou was after eating a fine banquet.

Isn't it kind of sad?
