Fish swimming around the world

This is a civil servant's house. It is very stylish, with pavilions, terraces, corridors and everything in between. The interior is fresh and elegant, which suits Mr. Jiang's taste. No one dared to buy it at the beginning. In addition to not wanting to buy it, most people were afraid of being implicated, so it was abandoned for a long time. Now that it has been cleaned up, it may not be bought even for 50,000 taels. Mr. Jiang made a fortune.

"It's all Yan Zi's credit."

"Yan Zi?"

"Oh, it seems strange to always call by the full name. We are all family members. It's more intimate to call it this way."

The empress thought for a while and said, "Like Xiao Cui?"

"Hehe..." Jiang Fan smiled: "It's not my fault. Don't blame me for the old guy's account."

Listening to them talking, Gu Beiyan didn't dare to interrupt, but she never dared to ask Jiang Fan to bring her skewers again.

"Leave a bedroom for me."

Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The rent will be deducted from the 500 taels."

——

The first barbecue event in Qin State ended successfully. Although there were only three people throughout the whole process, they were very happy. The ditch was full and the trench was flat.

Gu Beiyan was flattered. Since she joined the Dragon Eagle Guard, although she was the emperor's close attendant, she would never have such an opportunity. Unexpectedly, after being demoted to Jiang Fan as a maid, she would have more contact with the emperor. And she saw the opposite side of the emperor from usual. Today, she even sat at the same table with the emperor for dinner, which was like a dream.

He drank a lot of wine, and Master Jiang felt his abdomen hit again in a daze...

——

The owner of Penglai Pavilion was shocked. He received a message from the Imperial Guards that the emperor would host a banquet for civil and military officials in his own restaurant tomorrow. How could this be possible? It was a big event. The owner and the shopkeeper were so panicked that they finally calmed down and quickly posted a notice that the restaurant would not be open to the public tomorrow.

He almost didn't sleep all night, and cleaned the restaurant inside and out. He even washed the street in front of the door three times with water. He waited at the door since the hour of Yin.

Just at the hour of Mao, a team of plainclothes guards quietly spread around the street. A slightly fat eunuch came forward and squinted his eyes to greet the owner and the shopkeeper.

"Wang Dongzhu, Liu Shopkeeper, do you recognize me?"

Wang Dongzhu was stunned. After a closer look, he recognized that it was the guest who spent 1,000 taels of silver to book the private room on the second floor and came to listen to the story every day. Now that he changed into official uniform, he realized that this person was actually a palace eunuch.

Such a person must not be offended.

Wang Dongzhu hurriedly bowed and greeted: "I don't know your identity, I hope you will forgive me."

The eunuch smiled slightly: "Don't be restrained, my Zhao Er, I came to inform you specially, don't make a big fuss, and don't kneel three times and nine times. Your Majesty is just here to listen to the story, just treat him like an ordinary guest. This is the order of your majesty."

Wang Dongzhu hurriedly said: "I will remember it, Lord Zhao, please come in for tea."

Zhao Er waved his hand, I have something to do, I will come later.

Mr. Jiang slept until the sun was high in the sky as usual, and then got up to eat.

Breakfast was vegetable porridge, fried eggs, steamed dumplings and two plates of pickles.

Gu Beiyan was used to eating at the same table with Jiang Fan, and the two chatted while eating. Jiang Fan was always talkative in front of Gu Beiyan, but Gu Beiyan usually listened without answering. Once he answered, he would talk endlessly, which was annoying.

Jiang Fan had just finished breakfast when he suddenly heard someone outside shouting, "Is Mr. Jiang at home?"

Jiang Fan was stunned, and Gu Beiyan hurried over to open the door.

Soon, a slightly fat eunuch came in with four strong warriors and two pretty young women. The eunuch was unfamiliar, but the four warriors were the Dragon Eagle Guards who had received Jiang Fan.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang." The eunuch took two steps forward as soon as he entered the door, clasped his fists and made a 90-degree salute.

A eunuch gave him such a great salute? Jiang Fan was a little confused.

"Wait a minute, eunuch, who are you?"

The eunuch stood up and said, "Mr. Jiang, I am Zhao Er, I am so presumptuous to come and see you."

"No, no, you are a eunuch, I am a commoner and cannot take on the responsibility."

Zhao Er hurriedly said, "Mr. Jiang, please don't say that. Mr. Jiang is so talented that it would be easy for him to become a general or a prime minister. It's just that he lives in seclusion in the city and disdains to do so. I am just a eunuch, and it is already a privilege to meet Mr. Jiang."

His tone made people feel very sincere. Zhao Er knew that this man was not just a storyteller, but also lived in the empress's bedroom where no man had ever entered. Fortunately, he was always careful and had to find out when he saw a new person. When he found out about this, Zhao Er shuddered. It was like he was going to die. What kind of person was this?

Look, now even a maid is at the level of the commander of the Dragon Eagle Guard. To say that this handsome young man and His Majesty are fine? I would never believe it even if I was beaten to death. However, he was very tactful and did not investigate further. Such a person must not be offended, not to mention that it involves the privacy of His Majesty? In the palace, one must know how to behave.

Of course, in Zhao Er's eyes, Young Master Jiang is his thigh. If it weren't for Young Master Jiang, he might not have the opportunity to get close to the empress in this life. Young Master Jiang went to the hall to tell stories for no reason, and his greatest strength was that he was good at imitating and had a particularly good memory, so he was chosen to do this.

So, in Zhao Er's eyes, Jiang Fan was a golden, thick and sky-high thigh, and it was not too much to hug him to death.

Jiang Fan made him feel confused.

"Okay, okay, what's the matter with this eunuch?"

"It's like this. His Majesty saw that there was no one to serve you in your mansion, which was inconvenient, so he ordered me to send four Dragon Eagle Guards to serve you. For convenience, I specially selected the ones you know. These are the four."

The four people saluted Jiang Fan with their fists: "Greetings, young master."

Jiang Fan touched his head: "She is really thoughtful."

When Zhao Er heard the name "she", his heart skipped a beat. Who has the qualification to call His Majesty her? I really saw it right.

"Okay, then just stay. You can just follow the commander's arrangements."

"Follow your orders!"

Zhao Er said again: "These two are official slaves bought by villains on their own initiative. They requested orders from His Majesty. There must always be someone in the Young Master's family to do some chores."

The so-called official slaves are the family members of criminal officials who were trained by the Jiaofang Secretary and then sold as domestic slaves. This kind of slave is generally from a good family background, can read and write well, and is the most expensive among slaves. What's more, these two people are so handsome that they can be called one-in-a-thousand beauties, so they must be expensive.

This Zhao Er is really good at getting things done. Having said that, it is really not possible for such a big house to have no one to take care of it. Jiang Fan was not a pretentious person, so he decided to accept it.

"How can I let my father-in-law spend money? I will pay for this money."

Zhao Er hurriedly said: "This can't be done. The young master has shown great kindness to the villain, and I feel really sorry for not giving him a chance to repay me."

"The kindness is as great as a mountain?" Jiang Fan couldn't help but be stunned.

Zhao Er said with a smile: "If it weren't for the young master's storytelling, how could I have the chance to imitate the young master and tell stories to your majesty? It's not like the kindness is as great as a mountain."

It turned out that this was what happened. Jiang Fan was so smart that he understood the whole story after just a little thought.
