The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 648: Favor
During the banquet, Zhang Er sent people to secretly repair and replenish the Zhu family's caravan, and wash, maintain and feed the horses and vehicles.

And he was very thoughtful, not only preparing gifts for the Zhu family members, but also preparing small gifts for all the guards, attendants and maids.

The way he treated Liu Ji was completely different. Originally, he had only thought of letting Liu Ji eat, drink and have fun in Waihuang for a while and then send him back.

Now this idea has completely changed. Zhang Er has made up his mind to keep Liu Ji!

This brother is really a rare talent. Although he comes from a small place, he treats people in a reasonable and orderly manner, neither humble nor arrogant. This kind of mentality is very rare.

In addition, given my current relationship with the Zhu family, I can't let him leave easily. Even if I can't let him stay with me, I want him to remember my kindness for the rest of his life!
After the banquet, it was already late and there was a curfew in Waihuang.

But in front of Zhang Er, the magistrate of Waihuang County, all of this is not a problem. In the absence of Shangguan Lai, he is the king of Waihuang!

After eating and drinking, everyone was a little tipsy. Zhang Er repeatedly asked the Zhu family to stay overnight at their mansion, but was politely but firmly rejected by the Zhu family.

Zhang Er did not try to keep them any longer, and together with Liu Ji, he personally escorted the group to the inn. He also forced Zhu Jia and others to give generous gifts, and then he went back with Liu Ji.

Zhang Er had already prepared the upper room of his own mansion and tidied it up for Liu Ji, and also sent two young and beautiful maids to serve him.

In addition, he selected a dancer with a gentle personality and outstanding appearance from the palace and gave her to Liu Ji.

With Zhang Er's family wealth, he only had four or five dancers, a valuable resource. Now he gave one to Liu Ji, which showed that he truly valued Liu Ji.

On the way back, Zhang Er and Liu Ji rode in the same carriage, holding hands and talking. Liu Ji still seemed a little immature in front of Zhang Er, but with Zhang Er's sincere and generous treatment, Liu Ji really treated Zhang Er as his elder brother.

After returning to the mansion, Zhang Er personally escorted Liu Ji back to his room, chatting and laughing all the way: "My dear brother, since you have come to my place, you have come to your own home. Remember, you don't have to be restrained. You have come from a long way and must be tired. Wash off the dust today and have a good rest. Tomorrow we will go together to see Mr. Zhu and the others off."

Liu Ji nodded repeatedly: "Thank you, brother. I understand. I am grateful for your concern. I would like to thank you for taking care of me and entertaining the Zhu family brothers today. I am very grateful."

Zhang Er replied, "Oh, that's impossible. Our two families are old friends. Our fathers were good friends. When you come to my brother's place, you are returning to your own home. Your business is my business. There is no need to say more."

"I have you by my side in everything. If you need anything, just tell me and I will do my best. As the saying goes, brothers are the best when fighting tigers. If we brothers work together, we will surely accomplish something!"

Liu Ji was excited and nodded repeatedly. Zhang Er smiled and patted Liu Ji on the shoulder: "There is a gift prepared by my brother for you in the room. Don't be too late. I have to give it to Mr. Zhu and others tomorrow."

After Zhang Er finished speaking, he left leisurely with his hands behind his back. After Liu Ji saw Zhang Er off, he was still wondering what the gift was. When he opened the door and took a look, his eyes lit up.

The two little maids were still young, but they were pretty, well-behaved and cute, and they were dressed neatly and cleanly.

There was a beautiful and charming girl in the room, who looked to be no more than 29 years old. She had a slightly heavy makeup, and the clothes she wore highlighted her exquisite curves. She also had a charming and seductive smile.

Especially the eye-catching depth and breadth, which was clearly revealed under the light gauze bodice, and the dazzlingly white flat waist, which instantly made Liu Ji feel a little dry in the mouth.

Although he is not a novice anymore, he has never eaten such delicious food.

There is no way, the previous conditions simply did not allow it.

Women have always been a scarce resource in the lower classes. What's more, this is also a precious resource in the upper classes, a beauty who is proficient in music and poetry, and good at singing and dancing?
Although Liu Ji was not at the bottom of the society, he was not far off.

What he usually eats is far inferior to what the person in front of him eats.

When Liu Ji was at a loss as to what to do, two maids, along with the beauty who was sent to Liu Ji as a concubine, came forward and saluted three times in a sweet voice: "Your servants Yinzhi and Biwu (the concubine Jingshu) pay their respects to the master."

Liu Ji hurriedly said, "Get up, get up." He was quite flustered.

But no one cared. The beautiful woman held a box and presented it to Liu Ji with a smile on her face, and it seemed that she was struggling.

"Master, this is something the county magistrate gave you. The county magistrate said that when you go out, you must have money. This is a gift from the elder brother to the younger brother."

"The county lord said that you must accept it. It's given by your elder brother, so you can't refuse it."

Liu Ji took it and opened it. Twenty pieces of horseshoe gold were arranged neatly. Under the light, the gold exuded charming colors, dazzling people's eyes.

Liu Ji had never seen so much money in his life, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. The main reason was that gold was really beautiful. Few people could remain indifferent to holding so much heavy gold in their hands.

Liu Ji blinked, closed the box and placed it on the table.

I have mixed feelings and don't know what to say.

After only one day in Waihuang, he obtained wealth that his second brother could never obtain even if he worked hard in the fields for a lifetime.

The beautiful woman and the maid beside waited for Liu Ji to calm down. Then the beautiful woman said with a sweet smile, "Master, it's getting late. Please change your clothes and take a bath first." As soon as she finished speaking, several people helped Liu Ji to change his clothes. Liu Ji shivered and came to his senses. He was surrounded by three women and served him. For a moment, he was really embarrassed and at a loss. He had never experienced this before.

The beautiful woman smiled coquettishly, and was very charming. While helping Liu Ji take off his clothes, she said delicately, "Master, don't be nervous. From now on, we are all yours. Master, you are a noble man, please be at ease and accept my service."

Liu Ji was worthy of being Liu Ji. After a few breaths, he calmed down and nodded slowly, although he was still a little stiff and awkward.

Even when Liu Ji was completely naked, he couldn't help but block the way. Several people giggled and surrounded Liu Ji into the bathtub, ready to serve him a bath.

Jingshu took off her clothes and was about to go in. Liu Ji was dazzled and hurriedly tried to stop her, as he still needed to calm down for a while.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I can do it myself, just let me be quiet for a while."

The beauty did not force it, she smiled and said softly: "Yes, then I will go and heat up the hangover soup for you. If you need anything, just call me and I will come in."

Liu Ji nodded repeatedly. After a few people went out, Liu Ji washed his face vigorously.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, this is the life of a truly wealthy family, having everything you need is just the basics, and other wonderful things are countless.

I had already drunk quite a bit of wine, and although I had been trying not to drink too much and lose my composure, I still drank quite a bit due to my excitement. The bathtub was filled with steam, and after soaking in the hot water, I felt a little dizzy.

However, after Liu Ji washed his face, he became more sober.

His mood, which had been disturbed by the beauty just now, calmed down. He looked up at the ceiling with an expressionless face and sharp and clear eyes.

He was keenly aware of the change in Zhang Er's attitude towards him today. When he first arrived at Zhang's house, it was not that Zhang Er was not enthusiastic towards him, but that was only a polite enthusiasm, and he did not seem to be very happy about him coming to him for shelter.

However, after he knew that he knew Qin officials, his attitude had changed a little. After he got to know the Zhu family, his attitude became what it is now.

Liu Ji reviewed everything that happened today again and again, and was very sure that Zhang Er's current regard for him was not due to his own contribution, but was mainly supported by the elder brother of the Zhu family.

Liu Ji was also certain that the Zhu family's status must be higher than he had imagined.

Thinking of this, he was even more moved. How could he be so valued by his elder brother? How could he be so honored? If it weren't for the support of the Zhu family, he would never have been treated like this.

Liu Ji immediately thought of two questions. First, Zhang Er was a county magistrate of the Wei State, so it was understandable that he was afraid of the Qin State, but why was he so enthusiastic about making friends with the Qin people?

Liu Ji's eyes narrowed. Could it be that
Also, Liu Ji thought of Tian Mi, who was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen in his life.

Liu Ji thought about the beauty just now and shook his head slightly. She was far inferior to Tian Mi.

The beauty my brother gave me is already a rare beauty, but if you compare yourself to others, you will die. She still cannot compare with He Tian Mi.

They are both girls, but the beauty sent here relies on makeup and actions to show her charm, but Tian Mi is naturally charming and a few years younger. She is charming and seductive just by the look in her eyes. Her face is young and innocent, but she is naturally charming and delicate. Such a beauty is hard to come by.

Liu Ji didn't even look at it, because he knew the importance of it. But even so, it was already impressive enough.

He was mainly puzzled by one question. It seemed that his sister-in-law treated Tian Mi in a flattering manner, which was also very strange.

Moreover, my brother couldn't help but secretly look at his sister-in-law and Tian Mi several times. His eyes were concerned, cautious, expectant, and careful, but there was definitely no inappropriate look in them.

Liu Ji's intuition told him that Zhang Er valued Tian Mi as much as he valued the Zhu family.

Even if this woman came from an extraordinary family, she was just a little girl after all. The fact that the sister-in-law had to go to the trouble of making friends with her and flattering her meant that there must be something going on.

Unfortunately, there is insufficient information to make any inferences.

Liu Ji scooped up some water and washed his face again, letting out an imperceptible sigh.

The most important thing for a person is to have value. Only when you have value will you be valued by others. Without value, all relationships are fake.

The reason why the Zhu family's elder brother values ​​himself is definitely not because of his current value, but because of his future.

Liu Ji was even more moved. He thought that only the elder brother of the Zhu family knew me, understood me and valued me.

There are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers. How many noble people are willing to lower their heads and look at the chaos of the world?
When you are poor and humble, it is a great fortune to have someone who respects and values ​​you.
