Yan Song deserves to be the Boss of the dynasty second only to Emperor Jiajing, his influence is everywhere and pervasive. However, Yan Song is far away from the capital, and this is only a reception banquet for the imperial historian Hu, do you guys have to lick so much?
Lick the dog, lick the dog, lick until the end of nothing ……
Seeing the five officials on the table doing their best to distance themselves, Zhu Pingan could not help but pull the corner of his mouth.
The five officials on the table were warming up and talking, and Zhu Pingan was alone ……Eating happily.
Hu Zongxian long-sleeved, table to table toast, came to Zhu Pingan their table, Hu Zongxian toasted after the wine, smilingly asked Zhu Pingan, “How does Zhu Taoyuan know that I will ride a donkey to the office ah?”
“Cough cough cough, I guessed.”
Zhu Pingan sniffed and couldn’t help but cough, how did Hu Zongxian even know this this? It must be Chu Xiong and whoever of them said it leaked, Zhu Pingan turned his head to look at the table where Chu Xiong and the others were at, sure enough he found that Chu Xiong was paying attention to his own table, and after finding out that Zhu Pingan was looking at him, he smiled at Zhu Pingan like a constipated bulldog, that’s right, it’s the guy who leaked it.
“What family ah, Lord Zhu? Guess just dare to place a bo bet of two hundred and fifty taels of silver ah?”Hu Zong Xian approached Zhu Ping An and asked with a smile.
Crap! Chu Xiong this douchebag even told Hu Zongxian how much of this kind of thing to bet on? Zhu Pingan was speechless.
“Ahem, Ta-Jen Hu, it’s not the Bo Bets, but the funding for financing the militia groups. I took office as the Commander of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Tidings and Inspection Division, I was ordered to reorganise the military and lead the **** regiment, there is a lack of funds, financial embarrassment, Lord Chu, Lord Zhang, they intend to fund the militia regiment, the so-called elegant bet is just a little game of deduction and guessing to increase the fun of funding, and we’re not doing it for the sake of the property, but rather for the purpose of raising funds for the militia regiment.”Zhu Pingan corrected the word Bo Bets in Hu Zongxian’s mouth in a serious manner and explained seriously.
Hu Zongxian is the inspector general, has the power to assess the officials, although now the officials of the scholarly as well as folk all sorts of betting games prevalent, such as the leaf play, the horse hanging cards, dominoes is the invention of this time prevalent, and even Ming Xuanzong love to promote the weaving of the gambling teasers as well as the future of the Ming Emperor Shenzong invented and love the “city” game, but after all, “the law of the Ming Dynasty” and the “Regulations on the questioning of punishment” and so on many big laws.The question of punishment regulations” and many other laws and regulations of the Ming dynasty strictly prohibit gambling, if it is not to be on the line characterised as gambling, it is also enough to drink a pot of Zhu Pingan them.
That’s why Zhu Ping An corrected and explained in a serious manner that they were not gambling in terms of form, purpose, and elements, but just a small game of recommended guessing to increase the fun of the funding process.
“Oh, the little game of inferential guessing that increases the fun of funding ah. Well, the purpose of raising funds for militia groups, not gambling on property, is indeed not ……”Hu Zong Xian smiled and nodded his head, acknowledging Zhu Pingan’s explanation, then asked smilingly, “But the little game also has winners and losers, isn’t Ta-Jen Chu afraid of losing, and going from Lord Chu and the others funding Ta-Jen Chu’s militia group, to Ta-Jen Chu funding Lord Chu and the others!”
“Lord Hu, the reason why I dared to do this little game is based on something.”Chu Pingan said with a frank face.
“Oh, what is Lord Chu’s basis?”Hu Zongxian asked with a curious face.
“The basis is ……Your Honour is Hu Zongxian.”Zhu Pingan looked at Hu Zongxian and said with a serious face.
“Oh?”Hu Zong Xian raised his eyebrows.
“Admiral Hu patrolled the border towns such as Xuanfu and Dazheng, rectifying military discipline and fixing the borders; he patrolled Huguang, rectifying military discipline and levelling the Miao chaos. Lord Hu’s patrol of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and coincided with the Japanese trouble, it is expected that Lord Hu will rectify the military discipline. As the saying goes, “Discipline others before disciplining yourself, Lord Hu is new here, if he wants to rectify military discipline, he will naturally set a good example, so I guess Lord Hu might ride a donkey to his post.”Zhu Pingan explained.
After Zhu Pingan finished speaking, Hu Zongxian looked at Zhu Pingan fixedly for a full three seconds before showing his teeth and smiling.
“Eloquent, thorough, worthy of being Lord Zhu – the youngest Scholar of my Great Ming!”Hu Zongxian praised with a smile.
“Your Excellency’s fallacious praise, Ping An is ashamed of it.”Zhu Pingan arched his hand and said.
“When Your Excellency Zhu has time in the future, he may as well come and sit more often at the Inspector’s Yamen.”Hu Zongxian raised his cup with a smile.
“As I wish, I don’t dare to invite you. As long as Ta-Jen Hu does not mind, Ping An will definitely bother to report to Ta-Jen Hu from time to time.”Zhu Pingan lifted his glass with both hands and returned the toast to Hu Zongxian, smiling.
At present, the Imperial Inspector is extremely powerful, the Imperial Inspector has in fact become the top boss of the Sub-Inspector of the Department of Tidings and Prosecution, although Zhu Pingan doesn’t lead the Sub-Inspector, he can’t help but be subjected to Hu Zongxian’s jurisdiction as the Inspector of Zhejiang and Jiangsu to a certain degree, so the word “report” is not too much.
The sun shines through the windows and doors, the early winter sun is noon also spread the two a trial of gold.
The two looked at each other and smiled, raised a cup, a drink.
Hu Zongxian from table to table, back to the main table, once again picked up a cup of wine to all the officials present.
“Nowadays, the Japanese disease is blazing, desperadoes desperate, from the Japanese people, the Japanese invaders burn, kill, loot and pillage, no evil, the people are suffering! I Hu Zongxian trusted by the emperor, appointed Zhejiang inspector general, I serve this time, the main task is to protect the Japanese. All of you adults are southeast of the pillar of talent, Zong Xian will cooperate with all of you adults, do not capture Wang Zhi and other thieves, sweep away the Japanese, stability in the southeast, vow not to return to the capital!”
Hu Zongxian’s voice echoed in the banquet, thumping ……
This is his true feelings.
Do not capture Wang Zhi, sweep away the Japanese, stabilise the southeast, vow not to return to the capital ……This is Hu Zongxian took over the Jiangzhe inspection imperial inspector, leaving the capital made a vow, but also his ideal ambition in this life.
“Don’t worry, Imperial Governor Hu, we are untalented, we will definitely live up to the saint, the river and the mountain, and the people, and we will work with one heart and one mind to sweep away the Japanese invaders!”
The voices of the group of officials at the banquet echoed in the same way, with the same thumping sound ……
The reception banquet lasted for more than an hour, eight or nine officials got drunk and were carried back by the same officials. Hu Zongxian sea amount, he as the main character of the reception banquet, again was toasted, again toast, drink wine is the whole reception banquet the most, but but also just red face, words and deeds do not see a trace of drunkenness, standing in the door of the inspector’s office, arching his hand one by one to send off the officials of the various government offices.
Zhu Pingan also did not have drunkenness, not Zhu Pingan alcohol improved, but because Zhu Pingan drink less, in addition to Hu Zongxian toast of the two cups, only the whole field to mention the wine, Zhu Pingan followed the crowd to drink a cup of wine, three cups of wine is not enough to get drunk.
“Ta-Jen Zhu, still the same words, come around the Yamen often when you have time.”When Hu Zongxian was sending off the officials of the Tidings and Judgeship Department at the entrance of the Yamen, he smiled and patted Zhu Pingan’s shoulder, once again saying to him.
“Definitely.”Zhu Pingan arched his hand and said back.
