Jinyi Town Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 212 Flexibility and Stretch
At nightfall, an uninvited guest came to He Liu's house—Jin Yiwei Commander Zuo Tongzhi Liu Da!
The emperor appointed He Liu as the chief envoy of the imperial envoy and Liu Da as the deputy envoy of the imperial envoy, and went to Jiangnan to strictly punish Hu Zongxian in the name of inspecting Jiangsu, Zhejiang and coastal defense.The decree let them go tomorrow.Before departure, it was nothing new for the Deputy Envoy to pay homage to the Chief Envoy.

Holding two jars of wine in his hand, Liu Da entered He's house.

When Lao Hu saw Liu Da, he said in a strange manner, "Oh, what kind of wind is this that brought our commander, Mr. Zuo Tongzhi, here?"

Without saying a word, Liu Da knelt down to Lao Hu with a "plop", and kowtowed three times with "Dangdangdang": "Apprentice Liu Da, meet the master!"

Old Hu sneered: "Don't tell me! Your commander Zuo Tongzhi is now the highest official in Jinyiwei. How can I accept your worship?"

Liu Dao: "Master, I know you are still angry with me. I offended Sixth Brother and Master a while ago. But it was because of my duty, and I had to do some things. Our Jinyiwei's family rules, apprentices see The guiding master must salute. I was trained by you alone, and it is my duty as an apprentice to bow down to you."

Standing beside Lao Hu, He Liu secretly laughed in his heart: Liu Da is really able to bend and stretch!To put it nicely is to be able to bend and stretch, but to put it badly, it is skinless and shameless!

Liu Da really regards the saying "a man can bend and stretch" as the most reasonable.Before coming to He Liujia, he first went to find his real master - Lu Fang, the chief inspector of ceremonies.

Lu Fang told Liu Da: What you have to do now is to curry favor with He Liu and Hu San.These two people are now the most sacred people in the entire Jinyiwei.Don't feel ashamed to curry favor with them because you think you have a higher official position than them.The emperor asked He Liu to take charge of Beizhen Fusi, and let He Er continue to be in charge of Nanzhen Fusi.In fact, you, a fellow leftist, have already been dismissed by them.If you want to continue to hang out in Jinyiwei in the future, you must establish a good relationship with these two people.

Although He Liu hated Liu Da in his heart, as the saying goes, he would not hit a smiling face with his hand.Liu Da visited He Liu, the imperial envoy, before leaving Beijing, and He Liu couldn't let him stand in the yard all the time.

He Liudao: "Since you're here, let's talk in the room!"

Liu Da cupped his hands: "Then thank Brother Six."

Before He Liurong was promoted to be the governor of Beizhen, Liu Da always called him "Lao Liu".Now that He Liu has gained power, he changed his name to "Sixth Brother".

The three of them entered the main hall of He Mansion.

He Liudao: "This trip, the emperor sent us to Jiangnan to inspect the coastal defense. In fact, the inspection of the coastal defense is just an excuse. Finding out about Hu Zongxian's illegal affairs is the real purpose of this trip."

Liu Da nodded: "The emperor has already given me our task. If we go to Jiangnan, my younger brother will definitely follow the lead of the sixth brother!"

Liu Da's mouth seemed to have touched honey, and he took a mouthful of "Six Brothers", which made He Liu's goosebumps almost rise.

He Liudao: "Ma Shou Zhan's words are too much. You are still the commander of Jinyiwei, Zuo Tongzhi. I, the Fushi of Beizhen, are under you."

But Liu Da knelt down to He Liu and Lao Hu again with a "plop": "Sixth brother, are you still angry with me? Whether it is arresting Yang Lian or 'weeding' in Jinyiwei, it is all the emperor's will .Brother, I am just following orders. If you and Master are still angry with me, hit me up to vent your anger."

Old Hu sneered from the side: "Heh, how dare we hit the popular man in front of Mr. Yan Ge, and the sworn brother of Mr. Xiao Ge?"

Liu Da's mouth could be described as eloquent: "Master, Sixth Brother. Before resigning from his old age and returning to his hometown, Yan Song was in charge of the government in front of the cabinet. I was the governor of Beizhen at that time. My subordinates were in charge More than 2000 brothers. For the wealth and glory of these more than 2000 brothers, I can only make false promises to Yan Song and his son."

Old Hu laughed and said: "Strange! It is said that Jin Yiwei is the emperor's servant. Why does our prosperity depend on Yan Song and his son's face?"

Liu Dao: "Master, Sixth Brother. How about this, if you still don't calm down, I'll slap myself! I slap until you calm down!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Da began to slap his mouth wildly with "crackling" from left to right.

He Liu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Liu Da's hand, and helped him up: "That's all. You said just now that you just followed the emperor's order and did those things. How could your master and I be serious?" Count these things?"

Liu Da changed into an overjoyed expression: "Master and Sixth Brother just don't care about it! This trip is going to Jiangnan, Sixth Brother, if you let me go east, I will never go west. If you tell me to fart, I will never have diarrhea."

He Liu smiled: "Okay, it's getting late now. Go back and prepare your luggage. At noon tomorrow, we will ride to Tongzhou. Then we will board an official boat in Tongzhou and go down the Shuo River. By the way, your sister-in-law and Niece, this time I will go to the south of the Yangtze River with us."

It is nothing new for imperial envoys to take their family members on tour.Liu Da didn't object, and he didn't dare to object: "It's all up to Sixth Brother's arrangement."

After finishing speaking, Liu Da put two more wine jars on the table: "Master, this is for my apprentice to honor your old age." Then he left.

After Liu Da left, Lao Hu said to He Liu: "This man is really shameless! He has no bones at all, he is simply born to be a lowly slave!"

He Liudao: "Nine out of ten people in the officialdom are disciples of Liu Da. When I see my superiors and colleagues who are in power, I wish I could take off their pants and lick their buttocks. If Liu Dacheng is like this now, how can I say that?" You are to blame, Old Hu! Who made you, the guide, fail to take him well?"

Old Hu said: "If I had known that he was such a bastard, I shouldn't have accepted him as an apprentice in the first place."

As Lao Hu was talking, he suddenly became addicted to alcohol.

He walked up to the two big jars of wine that Liu Da had given him, and took off the red cloth cork.In the two big jars, there was not a single drop of wine.

Old Hu said angrily: "Liu Da, are you just playing with my old bones? There is no wine in this wine jar!

He Liu looked at the two wine jars.Suddenly——he, who had been an official in brocade clothes for 20 years, smelled gold and silver!
He Liu walked up to the two jars of wine, and flicked the walls of the jars with his fingers. "When clang".There was a crisp sound from the wine jar.

He Liuran's servants brought a small paper cutter and scraped the two big wine jars.

These two large wine jars seem to be made of rough soil, but in fact this is just an appearance!The whole body of the two large wine jars is made of gold.It's just that the outside is covered with a layer of rough soil!
He Liu laughed lightly: "Old Hu, your apprentice respects your master, and you really don't care about money at all!"

Old Hu said: "Who wants his gold? I'll give it back right away."

He Liu didn't take it seriously: "The money in his hand came from a wrong source. There is a way to be generous. If he gives you a gift, you just accept it as it is ordered."

He Liu told Lao Hu again: "Old Hu, our father and I have been inseparable all these years. This time, you stay in Beijing alone, you must take care of your body. If something happens, I can go to you." Godson Feng Bao. Now he is the great companion of the emperor's eldest grandson, and he can talk to Concubine Li and Prince Yu."

When mentioning Feng Bao, Lao Hu looked proud: "This kid is really fast. It's only been a long time, and he's already a top-ranking fourth grade!"
