Chapter 47: Happy Farmer
After leaving the shop, Xie Yi immediately went to the Cheng family mansion near Tianjin Bridge.
There were many ministers in the court, and nobles from aristocratic families bought real estate in Luoyang, so Cheng Zhijie was no exception.
When he left the palace, Xie Yi had already found out that Lao Cheng had been guarding for three consecutive nights in front of Luoyang Palace and was resting at home today.
The other important officials were busy, so they could visit Cheng Zhijie openly and not be blamed for being favored by one or the other.
It’s not that I don’t want to go, it’s that you are busy not at home, no wonder I?
Behind him, Lu Tong led a few friends, carrying twenty exquisite porcelain bottles, containing the fine wine of Qionghua, and accompanied by exquisite gift boxes to give gifts to Duke Lu.
Several casual guards were still following her, and the young Xie Yi was walking on the street. Others thought that it was a wealthy young man who took a wealthy slave out to purchase, and it felt like he was a spending a lot of money.
The bystanders' eyes may be admiring, envious, or vicious.
Zheng Bin stood in a restaurant, watching Xie Yi sway through the bamboo curtain, his face suddenly turned blue and white, and he was full of anger.
Lianghuai's wine business had already failed. He originally planned to use some means when Hou Junji left and Helan and Chu Shi left.
Who would have thought that the prodigal son would ascend to heaven in one step, suddenly enter the palace to face the emperor, and grant him a title, and there was a hint of the emperor's favor.
Why is this happening?
He is obviously a ignorant and cowardly prodigal son. How could he suddenly surpass himself?
Gambling, business, talent, and even luck completely crushed myself. This feeling... Zheng Bin only felt that his throat tightened, as if he couldn't even breathe.
It was Hou Junji or even the prince's recommendation, otherwise how could he, a poor family, reach the sky in one step?
Helan Chushi was not righteous, Hou Junji, and even the prince... were so arrogant. How could he be the son of the Zheng family in Xingyang be worse than a prodigal son?
But they are blind...the result is so unfair.
Xie Yi talked happily in front of the emperor's court officials, and was full of honor and favor, but he was scolded by his father. Now he has to return to his hometown in Xingyang to confess his crimes.
As long as he thought about it, Zheng Bin felt angry and just watched Xie Yi walk downstairs. He really wanted to send someone to follow him and go on the streets and alleys...
But, not!
The loyal old servant reminded him in time: "Young master, he is already a county man, and he is attracted by the emperor... The hometown in Xingyang has given instructions, so that this matter will be abandoned. Do not act irresponsible and cause trouble."
"Don't worry, I know what's going on!" Zheng Bin clenched his fist tightly, squeezed out a few words with gritted teeth, full of hatred. He couldn't do anything right now, but the future is long, so don't worry...
...
Xie Yi did not notice the cold gaze behind him, but walked to the Cheng family mansion in vain.
When the concierge heard that it was a man from Huaiyang County, he immediately went in to report.
Although he was just a man from a small county, the Cheng family was well-informed and knew that the identity of this miracle doctor Xie was extraordinary, so he did not dare to neglect at all.
When he was welcomed into the mansion by the housekeeper, Cheng Zhijie was sitting in the hall. He didn't have to go out to greet Xie Yi as his identity, which was not rude.
There was a wine bowl on the table in front of him. After seeing Xie Yi, especially the gift box and porcelain bottle behind him, he immediately laughed and said, "Xie Yi, come and give me wine?"
Xie Yi smiled and said, "Yes, Duke Lu, I have promised to give you the drinks as soon as they arrive. How could I miss the promise?"
"Okay, very good!" Cheng Zhijie smiled and said, "I tell you, after drinking your Qionghua wine, this wine will feel bad. A bird can fade out of your mouth... I am worried, so you are here, very timely, and I know my heart!"
"Duke Lu, there are twenty bottles in total. You drink them first, and you will give them to you if you don't have them..."
Cheng Zhijie smiled and waved his hand and said, "You guy is intent, but after drinking these twenty bottles, I should pay for Lao Cheng. I can give you one, but I always ask you to give it to you. After all, this wine is worth several cents of money when it is in short supply. Although Lao Cheng is thick-skinned, he can't always blackmail the little baby, right?"
It was completely different from that day. I didn’t realize that the Demon King of the World was still a very righteous and kind person! Of course, maybe he had some considerations.
Before Xie Yi could speak, Cheng Zhijie said, "Hurry...get a bottle quickly and let me enjoy it first."
Lu Tong hurriedly took out a bottle and handed it to the housekeeper of Cheng's house, and delivered it to Cheng Zhijie. Old Cheng was not polite, and immediately took it and was bored without any discomfort. Judging from his expression, he probably felt very happy.
It is indeed a generous hero of Wagang Village!
Xie Yi smiled and said, "Duke Lu, I wish I could remind you that this wine is very strong, and drinking too much is easy to get drunk and it hurts your body. You should drink it appropriately, but don't drink it! Especially when you are on duty, you must not..."
"What? The little baby is afraid that I will miss you by greed. Your Majesty blames you for implicating you?" Cheng Zhijie pretended to be angry and said, "Tell you, I am a principled person. I will not drink wine when I fight with the guards... I have been in Luoyang Palace these three days. I am addicted to alcohol..."
So that's it. No wonder Cheng Zhiji Energy Saving has been in a constant state of honor and favor from Zhenguan to Yonghui. This person is really thick and thin. Looking at the rough and big, but the important things are more cautious than anyone else. In addition, a loyalty is the way for the minister to survive forever.
"Yes, yes, I'm too worried!" Xie Yi apologized hurriedly.
Cheng Zhijie waved his hand and said, "Forget it, although you talk too much, you care about Old Cheng, and you still appreciate your kindness. Come on, you will be a guest at home, prepare some side dishes and drink a few drinks with me."
"This... Duke Lu, although he is brewing wine, he is unable to drink." Xie Yi was a little scared. He felt that drinking with such a rich man in the country would be in danger. He would probably be carried back to the palace today, which would be awkward.
"Boy, don't give me face, right? Come on... to get my Xuanhua Axe." Old Cheng roared, and everyone shook.
Xie Yi had no choice but to smile and said, "Okay... I'll drink a few drinks with you. If you do it, I can do it as I can?"
Cheng Zhijie glanced at Xie Yi with a smile on his face and said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense, come over quickly, sit down and drink."
"Okay!"
Xie Yi had no choice but to sit down obediently. Cheng Zhijie carried forward the slightest nonsense, and his spirit was boring, and he drank very vigorously.
After drinking a few glasses of wine, my face turned red slightly, and he laughed, "Drinking your wine for nothing seems unrighteous, Lao Cheng has to give you some rewards... By the way, you look old, have you ever been, and have the word "现"?
Otherwise, I would take the initiative to give you one? Although you are a junior, it is not good to always call him the name directly. I have always been very polite."
"This..." Although Cheng Zhijie changed his name very well and his sons had good names, he was a heroic person after all and was drunk today. If he made a weird word for a watch, he would be a bad life and he would never take this risk.
"Thank you, Duke Lu. Although you have never performed the title ceremony, an old man once took the title of "Xiaoyao". In fact, you can also call me the younger Sanlang." Xie Yi hurriedly refused.
"Yi is also a good person. Since you have it, just pretend that I didn't say it. It's just that this free and easy thing is not easy... Don't be greedy for comfort and go astray!"
"I will definitely follow Duke Lu's teachings!" After drinking a few more drinks, Xie Yi hurriedly said goodbye, and came to visit and was carried out. It was really rude.
"Okay, Xiaoyao, then I won't keep you anymore, go!" Old Cheng had a drink as his friend, so he didn't care about others.
Xie Yi said goodbye and left the mansion, and he kept muttering the word "Xiaoyao".
