This is a civil servant's house. The home is very stylish, with pavilions, pavilions, pavilions and cloisters. The interior is fresh and elegant, which is very much in line with Mr. Jiang's wishes. At the beginning, no one dared to buy it. Apart from not wanting to do so, most of them were actually afraid of being implicated, so they abandoned it for a long time. Now that they are packed up, they may not be able to buy it even for fifty thousand taels. Mr. Jiang has made a lot of money.
"It's all Yanzi's credit."
"Yanzi?"
"Oh, it sounds like you are being called by your first name all the time. They are all members of your family. It's so kind to call them like this."
The empress thought for a moment and said, "Like Xiao Cui?"
"Hehe..." Jiang Fan smiled: "It's not my fault. Don't blame me for the old guy's fault."
Listening to them talking, Gu Beiyan didn't dare to interrupt, but she never dared to ask Jiang Fan to bring her meat skewers.
"Save a room for me in the dormitory."
Jiang Fan was stunned for a moment and then said: "The rent will be deducted from the five hundred taels."
——
Qin Guo's first barbeque with big shots ended successfully. Although there were only three people in the whole process, it was very enjoyable. The ditches to eat are full and flat.
Gu Beiyan was flattered. Ever since he joined the Dragon Eagle Guard, even though he was a close servant of His Majesty, he would never have such an opportunity. Unexpectedly, after being demoted to Jiang Fan as a maid, she would have more contact with His Majesty. And I saw the completely opposite side of His Majesty. Today, sitting at the same table with His Majesty for dinner was like a dream.
He didn't drink too much wine, and in a daze, Mr. Jiang felt his abdomen was hit again...
——
The proprietor of Penglai Pavilion was frightened. He received a message from the Royal Forest Army. Tomorrow, His Majesty will host a banquet for civil and military officials at his restaurant. Is this okay? What a big event. The proprietor and shopkeeper were so panicked that they finally managed to regain their composure and quickly posted a notice that they would not be open to the public tomorrow.
I stayed up almost all night, cleaning the inside and outside of the restaurant to perfection, and even splashed water on the street in front of the door three times. Since Yinshi, he has been waiting at the door.
When we arrived at Mao hour, a group of guards in plain clothes quietly spread around the street. A slightly fat eunuch stepped forward and greeted the proprietor and shopkeeper with narrowed eyes.
"Boss Wang and Shopkeeper Liu, do you recognize our family?"
Boss Wang was stunned for a moment, and after taking a closer look, he recognized that it was the guest officer who spent a thousand taels of silver to book a private room on the second floor and came to listen to books every day. Now when he changed into official uniform, he realized that this person was actually a palace servant.
This kind of person cannot be offended.
Boss Wang hurriedly bowed to pay homage: "I don't know your identity, but I hope you can forgive me."
The eunuch smiled slightly: "Don't be restrained. Our Zhao Er has come here specifically to inform you. No fanfare, no need to kneel and kowtow. Your Majesty is just here to listen to the book and receive you like an ordinary guest. This is His Majesty's will."
Boss Wang hurriedly said: "I have taken note of it. Mr. Zhao, please come inside and invite me for tea."
Zhao Er waved his hand, "We still have things to do at home and will come back later."
As usual, Mr. Jiang slept until three o'clock in the morning before getting up to eat.
Breakfast is vegetable porridge, fried eggs, steamed buns and two plates of pickles.
Gu Beiyan was used to eating at the same table as Jiang Fan, and the two chatted while eating. Jiang Fan has always been a talkative person in front of Gu Beiyan. Gu Beiyan usually listens but doesn't answer. Once he answers, he talks endlessly and is annoying to himself.
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 fat eunuch came in with four strong warriors and two pretty young women. The eunuchs were unfamiliar, but the four warriors were the Dragon Eagle Guards who had picked up Jiang Fan.
"I've met Mr. Jiang." As soon as the eunuch entered the door, he took two hurried steps forward, cupped his fists and gave a ninety-degree salute.
A eunuch giving such a great gift to himself? Jiang Fan was a little confused.
"Wait a minute, father-in-law, who are you?"
The eunuch stood up and said, "Master Jiang, I, the villain Zhao Er, have taken the liberty to come and pay my respects."
"Bye bye, you are a chamberlain, and I, a commoner, cannot afford this responsibility."
Zhao Er hurriedly said: "Young master, please don't say that. Mr. Jiang is a great talent. Even if he becomes a general or becomes a prime minister, it is just as easy as turning his back on you. It's just that the master is hiding in the city and doesn't bother to do it. I'm just a servant, but I can see that Mr. Jiang is already here." It’s a high climb.”
His tone felt very sincere. Zhao Erke knew that this man was not just a storyteller, but also lived in the Empress's palace, which no man had ever entered. Fortunately, I am always attentive and have to figure out new people when I see them. When he found out about this, Zhao Er was trembling and wanted to kill himself. Who is this?
Look, now even a maid is at the level of the leader of the Dragon Eagle Guard. Do you want to say that this handsome young man and His Majesty are fine? You won't believe it even to death. However, he was very sensible and did not investigate further. You must not offend such a person, let alone His Majesty's privacy. When messing around in the palace, you must have a good sense of proportion.
Of course, in Zhao Er's eyes, Mr. Jiang is his thigh. If it weren't for Mr. Jiang, he might not have the chance to get close to the empress in his life. Mr. Jiang went to tell stories in the hall for no apparent reason. His greatest strength was that he was good at imitation and had a particularly good memory, so he was chosen to do this.
Therefore, in Zhao Er's eyes, Jiang Fan is a super thigh that shines golden and reaches the sky, and he can hug him to death.
Jiang Fan made him confused.
"Okay, okay, what's going on with this father-in-law?"
"That's it. Your Majesty saw that there was no one to serve the young master in the mansion, and it was very inconvenient, so he specially ordered the villain to send four Dragon Eagle Guards to serve as servants for the young master. For the sake of convenience, the villain specially chose the ones you know. So. It’s these four.”
The four people cupped their fists and saluted Jiang Fan: "I have met the 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 the villain on their own initiative. They asked your majesty for permission. There must be someone in the 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 slaves are generally of good origin, literate, well-informed, and are 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 the price must be high.
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.
