Since Su Lie returned to Beijing, he has become a complete loser. He is drunk every day and falls unconscious. He has been socializing since he woke up in the morning. He smells of alcohol and can never stand firm when he walks.
That is to say, you are still young and can bear it, but no matter how old you are, no matter how good your drinker is, you cannot bear to drink like this.
This time he was granted the title of Marquis of Wen'an County, and was also rewarded with a house by Yang Guang. Whose house was it? It belonged to Yu Qingze, the Duke of Jin at that time.
Yu Qing was one of the four nobles in the early Sui Dynasty. He was accused of treason by his brother-in-law and executed by Yang Jian. His house has been empty since it was confiscated.
It seemed inappropriate for Su Lie to live in a former Duke's Mansion, but it didn't matter, because the area of Yu Qingze's house was not large, and the regulations were similar to those of the Marquis' Mansion.
This is about the people Yu Qingze once offended.
He was responsible for investigating the case of Su Wei's collusion with cronies, and solved Su Wei's case. Su Wei was also one of the four nobles at that time, and he came up not long after he went down, and also took over Jing Zhaoyin.
Didn't you expect that? I am back again.
Yu Qing wants to expand his mansion, but Su Wei can't pass it. The capital has a lot of land, so how can it be granted to you?
I am a prince, and I live in a mansion regulated by the marquis. Yu Qing will definitely be unhappy, so he asked Yang Jian for instructions, hoping to change to a big mansion. Yang Jian didn't care, because Yang Jian had been with the dozen or twenty people who attended the court meeting. A big shot once said: I wish that I, the princes and their descendants will always enjoy wealth and honor.
Did you see that Yang Jian is the chairman and leads everyone to make money together?
Now that Yang Jian has passed, Su Wei can't help but Yang Su shows up again because Yang Su and Yu Qingze also have a grudge.
What grudge? When Yu Qing returned from surrendering the Turks, Yang Jian praised him for his meritorious service. Yang Sulai said: It is all the credit of your majesty.
Yu Qing was unhappy and retorted: Your ability to fight the Turks is also a credit to His Majesty. Without His Majesty's prestige, you would not be able to win.
The two became enemies like this. It was actually just a verbal dispute, but Yang Su was gaining momentum and got close to Dugu Jialuo again. When he objected, Su Wei, who had already died down, raised his head again: There is really no place now. When it becomes available in the future, it will be given priority to him.
Well, until Yu Qingze died, he didn't live in a big house.
Su Wei is really disgusting. Although Yu Qingze is dead, his two sons are still alive, both have official positions, and they are still thinking about getting the property back. After all, Yu Qingze has been rehabilitated, Yang Guang This side is almost about to let go.
The word "rehabilitate" is extremely important, because once Yu Qingze is rehabilitated, his son will have the opportunity to attack the Duke of Jin and get his house back.
This is Jin, Jin, Qin, Qi, Chu, the first-class titles.
As a result, Su Wei suggested at the court meeting that the house should be awarded to Su Lie. After all, he had worked as a Jingzhao Yin, and he had a clear family background in which houses in the capital were idle.
The Yu brothers were very unhappy, but there was nothing they could do about it. Su Wei was definitely someone they couldn't afford to offend, and Su Lie was also not someone to offend.
However, Su Lie felt a little inferior because of his poor background. Living in such a mansion, he felt uneasy, so he took advantage of the fact that there was no entertainment tonight and quickly went to Nancheng to visit Yu Qingze's eldest son, Yu Renxiao.
Yu Renxiao is not simple. His first job when he was a child was to be a guard for Yang Guang. Originally, after his father was killed, their family was doomed. As a result, Yang Guang became the emperor. This kid got up in an instant. Now he is Zuo Bei. The body has a long history, and it also leads the forbidden garden.
It was he who kept chanting in front of Yang Guang every day: My father was wronged.
"Hey, Marquis Wen'an? It's our first time meeting you." Yu Renxiao, who received the invitation, went out to greet Su Lie. His current official position, like Su Lie's, is that of the military governor, but he does not have a title and is a third-grade marquis. , he is one level lower than Su Lie.
Su Lie, smelling of alcohol, stepped forward and said with a smile: "A sudden visit is too abrupt, Mr. Yu, Shi Haihan."
"It's time for me to shine. My dear brother has been a prominent figure in the capital recently. Please come in quickly." Yu Renxiao was not stupid at all. He guessed what Su Lie was here for.
How about it? Wouldn't you be able to sleep peacefully at my house?
The two of them sat down in the living room, and Yu Ren Xiao said: "My dear brother, can you still drink?"
"I just came here to have a drink with my brother," Su Lie said now, but he still couldn't change his humble attitude. After all, the old Yu family was also very powerful, the best in Ningxia.
The two of them just started drinking, and the more they drank, the more they drank.
People with serious worries are most afraid of drinking too much, because if they drink too much, they will think of sad past events, especially those like Yu Renxiao who have experienced ups and downs, and he feels unfair.
So Yu Renxiao got angry and started to curse Su Wei. Su Lie hurriedly tried to persuade him, but he couldn't stop him.
Su Lie came today because he took the initiative to make friends with others. It means that my little brother has moved into your former home, so don't mind.
As the saying goes, if you don't hit the smiling person with your hand, Yu Renxiao would not be angry with Su Lie, so he could only vent his anger by scolding Su Wei.
After scolding for an hour, I was so drunk that I woke up.
During this period, the two of them had become brothers, hugging each other's shoulders as if they were real brothers.
As the drunkenness gradually subsided, Yu Renxiao's IQ regained the high ground, he hugged Su Lie and said:
"My dear brother, you are the prince's son-in-law and the son-in-law of the Pei family. My brother has a problem here. I want to ask my dear brother for help, but it's a little hard to say."
Su Lie didn't know that the other party would give him a huge problem, so he took advantage of the alcohol and stupidly patted his chest and said:
"Brother, just keep talking. As long as brother can help, he will definitely help."
Yu Renxiao burst into tears and cried loudly: "My father was wronged."
After listening to other people's demands, Su Lie was dumbfounded.
Big brother, they say our friendship is shallow but deep, but it’s not as deep as yours. How can I possibly rehabilitate your father? Our family has only established a sect in my generation. Your family has been powerful in Lingwu (Lingwu City, Ningxia) since the Han Dynasty. You can't even do it. How can you expect me?
He was still dizzy at first, but now he is better. Su Liejiu also woke up, but he woke up from fright.
"Brother is really making things difficult for me. I can only do some errands for you. How can I get involved in such a big thing?" Su Lie said distressedly.
Yu Renxiao patted Su Lie vigorously on the shoulder:
"You can do it. Brother, I also serve in the palace. I know that the prince values you very much. If you can speak in front of the prince, you are all capable. You just need to help me get some air in front of the prince. How did my father get caught? I have been unjustly accused, I have obtained the evidence, and I just need someone who can speak for me. If my father is successfully rehabilitated in the future, I will not treat my virtuous brother lightly."
I don't expect you to treat me favorably. I have never dreamed of my current living conditions, and I am already very satisfied.
Besides, how can you speak in front of His Majesty? Your Majesty’s words are not as effective as those of the Prince?
Su Lie has always been with Yang Ming, and he has learned to be smart. He knows that you can't explain it to His Majesty, which means that His Majesty is unwilling. In this case, why should I ask the prince to force it?
I am not that thick-skinned. I can only repay the prince in this life, and I must not cause trouble to the prince.
Su Lie repeatedly shied away, but refused to agree. Yu Renxiao was already unhappy, but after all, he wanted something from someone, so he definitely couldn't show it on his face.
Take it slow, the relationship isn't there yet, but once you get to know each other better, they might be willing to help.
He personally sent Su Lie out of the alley and waited until the other party's carriage was far away before Yu Renxiao returned to the house. This was considered very polite.
Su Lie in the carriage let out a sigh of relief when he saw the other party's figure disappearing. You really don't know anyone else. You dare to entrust me with such an errand when we meet for the first time? You really think highly of me.
You definitely can't ride a horse when you go out drinking. Riding a horse while drunk is just as dangerous as driving a car while drunk. Su Lie has suffered this mistake before and has learned well.
His current Marquis Mansion was in the north of the city, passing by Chongrenfang where Prince Qin's Mansion was located. By coincidence, he happened to bump into Yang Ming's motorcade.
So he quickly got out of the car, took a step forward and stood waiting behind the alley.
"Smells like this? Are you afraid of drinking to death?" The carriage stopped, Yang Ming opened the curtain of the carriage and frowned at Su Lie, who was blushing like a monkey's butt.
He blushed when he drank, which was due to allergies, while Su Lie was too drunk.
Su Lie didn't dare to say a word, and hung his head, looking like he had made a mistake.
"Just in time, Governor Zhang is right behind the motorcade. You can lead him into the palace and go to the provincial villa under the door." After Yang Ming finished speaking, he lowered the curtain.
When Yang Ming's motorcade entered the alley, Su Lie went back to greet Zhang Xutuo.
"Who is Prefect Zhang? I have been ordered by the Crown Prince to take you into the palace." Su Lie's monkey-butt face caught sight of Cheng Yaojin who also had a monkey-butt at the first sight. He immediately frowned and said, "This brother drinks too much." Are you ready? How can you enter the palace in this form?"
Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "Brother, aren't you the same? Don't make fun of the other."
Zhang Xutuo hurriedly turned around and glared at Cheng Yaojin, then smiled and said: "This is Zhang Xutuo who has a humble job. You can do your job."
As a fourth-rank official in front of the prime minister, the prince must be a confidant if he can be guided by others. Zhang Xutuo felt that Cheng Yaojin's words of keeping things private were too private.
Su Lie was startled: "It turns out to be Commander Zhang. Junior Su Lie, please come with me."
After saying that, Su Lie got on his horse.
Zhang Xutuo and others were stunned for a moment, Su Lie and Su Dingfang? The one who captured Gao Dayang alive?
"It turns out it's Marquis Wen'an. I've admired him for a long time." Zhang Xutuo hurriedly rode up to follow him.
People like Zhang Xutuo who entered the palace under orders originally had a written ultimatum on them. As long as they took it out and showed it to the guards at the Suzaku Gate, officials from the Ministry of Personnel would naturally come out to greet them.
He was the prefect of a county, under the charge of the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Envoys, and the Ministry of War. He was responsible for deposing ambassadors and arresting ambassadors, and he was also under the supervision of the province. However, with the suppression of the Shandong rebellion, he was relieved of the latter two positions. So only people from the official department could come to take him.
However, if Su Lie leads the way, there is no need for the official department to lead the people, because Su Lie is also serving as the Qianniu of the East Palace. Only the prince can dispatch this position. Zhang Xutuo will save a lot of tedious work by following Su Lie into the palace. step.
Under normal circumstances, identity checks will be carried out at every door, which is very time-consuming. Of course, it is also for security reasons.
But Zhang Xutuo only brought three people into the palace without weapons, so there was no safety risk. What could the four of them do? You can also gather a table of mahjong.
It's really interesting to communicate with Northeastern people. It's very enjoyable. I can talk about whatever I want. I learned a Northeastern dialect: Oh my god, it's so boring.
