When I first threw it away, it was easy and casual;
Now when you pick it up, it is heavy, like a hot potato.
What a painful realisation ……
Yan Nian apprehensively will pick up the ground worship post, hands to the sedan chair in front of the hand of the maid, the maid took the worship post, with a handkerchief to wipe, and then send the worship post into the sedan chair.
Yan Song glanced at Yan Nian outside the sedan chair, then took the invitation.
The invitation was rectangular in shape, seven inches in length and three inches in width, and was the standard style of invitation that prevailed in Daming, but the difference was that this invitation was red in colour. In Daming, the paper used in the invitation is a delicate matter, the general official invitation with white, the Hanlin department officials with red, this is the preferential treatment of the Hanlin officials, but also the rules of the Daming officialdom.
Oh
The original is a Hanlin, no wonder the font writing is so outstanding, Yan Song nodded, then opened the invitation.
“Late student Zhu Pingan hereby pays his respects to Lord Yan, on the 20th day of the 5th month of the 31st year of Jiajing, Hanlin Academy Squire Zhu Pingan Ultimatum.”
Hmm.
Zhu Pingan!
This invitation was actually from this kid, Zhu Pingan!
When Yan Song saw the three words “Zhu Pingan” on the invitation, he thought of Xu Jie’s poem “Turning Tiger into Dragon, Returning to Heaven”, which was the reason why the poem “Turning Tiger into Dragon” turned the corrupt into magical.This imperial city is really evil.
This imperial city is really evil, speak of the devil and he will arrive. I was just thinking about this restless kid, but I didn’t expect this kid to be right under my nose.
Good.
Then let’s meet this cackling stone.
Still young ah, queuing up, can even lose the invitation to pay homage.
Yan Song slightly stroked the white beard, will worship invitations folded a bit on one side, lifted the sedan chair curtains on the outside of the Yan Nian commanded, “go to the Zhu Pingan call, with me into the house.”
Ha?
Call Zhu Pingan here? Enter the mansion together?
Yan Nian heard, as if the top of the head exploded a loud thunder, face swish a moment into earth grey, simply some do not believe their own ears, did not think that the heart’s worry actually come true, they do not drive a sixth grade officer well, in the usual but, this kind of thing they used to do a lot more than not all fine well, how to today on the accident it.
This damn Zhu Pingan!
Yan Nian on Zhu Pingan hate gnashing teeth.
“What? Well.”Seeing this, Yan Song gave a hmmm and asked again, “Has he already entered the mansion? This kid moves pretty fast.”
Has already entered the mansion?
How could he enter ah, people have been driven away by me.
Yan Nian heard the words, such as falling into an ice cave, from the bottom of the feet to the bottom of the heart, the brain is a blank, do not know how to answer, stupidly stood there, as if with the wood, poking at the ground.
“Speak ……”Yan Song some impatience.
“The old ……Master, Zhu ……Zhu Pingan he, he ……He just left, he saw the queue of people, want to insert the queue, small people feel out of order and did not let, did not expect him to be angry and threw the bye and left.”
Hearing his own master’s angry tone, Yan Nian only uttered and stuttered, stuttered and organised the language, and then he took himself off cleanly, and pushed the responsibility to Zhu Pingan’s body.
He put all the blame on Zhu Ping An. The black pot was put on Zhu Ping An’s head.
Know your son as your father!
Knowing the servant is not like the master!
Yan Song can do the current position, discernment is the champion of the Ming, if you believe the words of Yan Nian, he would not be able to do this position today.
“Tell the truth ……”Yan Song swept Yan Nian a glance.
“Master, I, I said every word ……”Yan Nian said without a bottom.
However, Yan Nian’s words were interrupted by Yan Song only halfway through.
“You say it, I want to hear the truth.”Yan Song pointed to the concierge standing behind Yan Nian and said faintly.
“Yes, Master.”The concierge who was pointed to by Yan Song, some dazed stood out from behind Yan Nian, he who always thought of performing in front of Yan Song in the past, this moment in his heart simply said dog. The concierge looked up at Yan Song, and looked at Yan Nian, some can’t decide whether it should be the truth or not.
Yan Song is a big master, Yan Nian is his own top boss. How to break?
“Cough ……”
At this moment, a gust of wind blew and Yan Nian coughed softly at the right time.
This cough made the concierge tremble, gritted his teeth as if he had made some kind of decision, and prepared to open his mouth as if he was going to the torture chamber.
“Remember your surname ……”
Yan Song swept a glance at the concierge and punctured the small action between the two.
“Yes, Master. The matter is like this ……”
The concierge sniffing rested just a small mind, their own a small concierge still want to cover up in front of the master, really do not know the height of the sky, or the truth is good.
When the concierge told the truth, Zhu Pingan had already walked out of the West Chang’an Street, turned a corner to another street, and returned to Linhuai Marquis Mansion along the same road.
He really is not the protagonist, paying a visit can be driven ……
Zhu Pingan smiled to himself and returned along the original road, and inexplicably sneezed twice when he passed a wine shop.
Could it be that someone is thinking about me?
Zhu Pingan touched his chin, then shook his head and laughed, don’t be so superstitious.
As usual, Zhu Pingan walked past the liquor shop and turned into a street next door to the liquor shop, at the end of this street there was a small alleyway from which he could walk faster to the Marquis Linhuai’s mansion, shortening the distance by ten minutes or so.
When Zhu Pingan turned into the street next to the wine shop, seven or eight people with combed hair and camphor came out of the wine shop and followed behind Zhu Pingan from afar.
Zhu Pingan walked into the alley, noticed that a little wrong, usually passing through the alley, almost only hear their own footsteps, but today I heard a number of footsteps behind, or deliberately lowered footsteps kind of.
Why would you lower your footsteps when walking down the street?
It’s either a traitor or a thief!
Zhu Pingan realised that something was wrong, and as he walked, he swept behind him with his unobtrusive afterglow, and found that he was followed by a few swarthy-looking guys who were not good people at first glance.
He accelerated his pace.
The people behind him also followed and accelerated their pace.
This made Zhu Pingan more certain of the suspicion in his heart, and looked at the alley in front of him, ergo, it was a good place to hit a smothering.
However, right now, he had just entered the alley and was relatively close to the street, so they would not strike here approximately, but after a few more minutes of walking, it might be possible.
So there were still a few minutes of prime reaction time.
Calm down.
Don’t be in a hurry.
How about running straight away?
Zhu Pingan dismissed this idea after thinking about it, although he is not a weak scholar, but in terms of physical fitness, he is definitely not better than them, if he starts running, then they will definitely chase after him directly, so he is taking his shortcomings and fighting against their strengths, he will definitely be caught up.
Find a house to hide?
This can have, Zhu Pingan walked a few steps forward and denied, this alley is mostly the back door of the house, and the back door of the few homes passing by are also locked from the inside. If you can’t get in, how can you hide.
So the question is, how to break this game
