10. Seven Treasures Agate Cup
Yuan Ji was able to praise Dou Shen for his youth and promisingness and to be a county magistrate in Miyuan, and once the rank is full, he would not be allowed to return to Beijing to serve as a supervisor. Next, he would go to the Shangshu Province to be a Lang official, and sooner or later he would go to the provinces to enter the stage, and his future was limitless.
Dou Shen praised Yuan Ji for being able to become a proofreader who envied the scholars of the scholars without escaping the imperial examination. He started his career so noble that he would be the servant of the Central Secretariat soon.
After the blowing each other, the musicians, prostitutes and the idles applauded and cheered together. Yuanzhou Po took the opportunity to ask, "I wonder what the Zhongshu Sheren does?"
Dou Shen's expression was so respectful that he exaggerated, "The Central Secretariat was the master of edicts, wrote the king's words, and painted the five-color judgments. All the government orders were made by him. People said that they were half a step in prime minister, which meant that they could reach the top and become the leader of a minister in just one step."
"It turns out that he is half of the prime minister. Sooner or later, will he become the entire prime minister?" Everyone at the banquet exaggerated and spoke to satisfy Yuan Ji Neng's vanity.
"What's even more amazing is that the emperor relies on it and ordered the servants to divide the food of the prime minister in the Zhengshi Hall. They would eat whatever the prime minister ate." Dou Shen continued to brag.
"Will the Yuan proofreader be able to eat with Yuan Zhonglang and his son in the Political Affairs Hall? Glory, there were three jiji Cui family in the Kaiyuan period, and soon there will be the Yuan family honor." Someone seemed to have discovered something and shouted in surprise.
Gao Yue was beside him, and he felt dizzy all over.
"Ah, you don't know. As far as I know, although the food in the Zhengshi Hall of the Central Secretariat is divided into the name of the Secretary of the Central Secretariat, it is actually different from the food in the Prime Minister." Yuan Ji Neng corrected with a smile, "Because the food in the Prime Minister is not something that ordinary people can divide? It is said that the former prime minister met in the Zhengshi Hall, and his brother came to visit him, so he ate the meal together. What do you think? After his brother finished eating, he died of a stroke after he went back, which is really pitiful."
Everyone started to scream, "But brothers are not as good as father and son!" During the meal, no one compliments this again. Yuan Jineng and Dou Shen, who understood it, immediately burst into laughter.
Suddenly, Dou Shen's eyes moved fiercely to Gao Yue, who had not made a sound, and then said, "If you accidentally eat a fish bone in the Zhengshitang, why don't you just get a pierced stomach?"
In the laughter, everyone immediately turned their eyes to Gao Yue. Gao Yue suddenly felt countless fish bones flying in his heart. Dou Shen's words were obviously provoking Gao Yue: Compared with us, you are destined to be a lucky life in the future.
This scene scared Wang Tuantuan down and dared not speak. She understood that Yuan Jineng's father was the third-rank prime minister of the dynasty and Dou Shen's uncle was the fourth-rank censor of the dynasty. It was natural for them to mock Gao Yue, the tynasty student.
Gao Yue's little temper rose, but he didn't expect that there would be so many snobbish eyes in this era! But then he thought, wasn't this the case with the feudal dynasty? He couldn't find any practical refutations, but he couldn't let the other party underestimate them.
So Gao Yue replied casually, "Don't bully the young man, you're poor!"
Gao Yue was confident in saying this, after all, I am a student of the Imperial College, the highest institution in the country.
Then the whole banquet was stunned, and people seemed to be savoring Gao Yue's shocking remarks, and Yuan Jineng's expression became particularly serious.
The air solidified for about a few seconds, Yuan Jineng's face suddenly bloomed, and Dou Shen and everyone present (except Wang Tuantuan) burst into laughter even more recklessly, "This Gao Langjun is so quick. Could it be that he still lives in his dream?" Yuan Jineng's tears burst out, and he asked Dou Shen unhurriedly.
"Chang'an Mi Gui, he will not be able to say this in another year or two, just like that of Liu De's room."
"A mere student has to rely on all officials to pay for their salary and money, and they are quite proud."
"Okay, okay, don't lose the wine, Su Wunu asked your wife to come and sing!" After saying that, Dou Shen frowned and looked at the long case, saying, "Yuanzhou Po, you are one of the most wealthy families in Beili. How can you drink the utensils so shabby?"
Yuan Ji Neng immediately took the beautifully carved golden cup from his servant and placed it on the table with a bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang bang, "Save it, use my cup to eat, don't be disgusted."
The silver and gold cups are inlaid with a dazzling and confusing under the candlelight. The noble spirit suddenly arises, and everyone is envious and cheering.
Especially the seven-treasure agate cup in the hands of the young master of the Yuan family, it was even more dazzling, and even Gao Yue couldn't catch it.
This cup, Yuan Ji can be said to be his father's favorite thing. It was originally produced by the Great Food Kingdom further away from the Western Regions. It was contributed to the pilgrimage Lord and was transferred to his father's hands.
At this time, the song suddenly came from behind the curtain, and Gao Yue could only hear the sound of "It's bitter!"
Everyone laughed, clapped their hands, stomped their feet and shouted, "Tread the romance, come with peace!"
Another voice came from inside, "Where did you get married with this enemy?"
Everyone was drinking while laughing and continued to beat the slap, "Traveling the romance, come with me!"
Then the famous woman who was dressed up with makeup came out. It must be Su Wunu's wife. She walked to the famous guest and sang a sentence. Every sentence was constantly, and people responded constantly. This was a rumor.
Gao Yue listened, and seemed to blame his husband for every sentence. Some said how ugly the husband looked, some said how domestic violence was, and some even talked about sex, and it was a bit unpleasant.
"Oh, it seems that these ancient songs are even more vulgar than they are now." Gao Yue said as he knocked his finger on the desk.
After Tayao Niang finished singing, everyone started drinking again, and Yuan Ji Neng shouted "mouth".
The Chu Niang quickly replied, "It's like a dowry without a beam."
The dou is a utensil for rice, and the shape of the mouth is similar to it, which is a wine recipe.
Yuan Ji was able to laugh and touch Chu Niang's cheek, but Dou Shen didn't care.
Then Dou Shen performed the word "chuan".
Everyone couldn't meet it, so they all punished them for drinking.
It was directly transmitted to Gao Yue, and Wang Tuantuan whispered, "Chuan, Langjun, you are 'straight like the rafters on the hall'."
So Gao Yue came out quickly and everyone nodded.
Under the candlelight, Dou Shen saw that it was Wang Tuantuan who was helping, and he couldn't help but hold a grudge.
Before he could come up with any slight tricks, Gao Yue suddenly added, "Dou Langjun's character "Chuan" is good. You see that it is like a rafter in the hall, but unfortunately the one that starts is crooked."
Everyone was stunned for a while, and then they realized that many prostitutes and musicians couldn't help laughing.
The starting stroke of the character "Chuan" is indeed crooked. If compared to the upper rafters of the hall, it actually mocks Yuan Ji Neng and Dou Shen as both rich and rich children who are not upright on the upper beam and crooked on the lower beam.
Yuan Ji was able to act eloquently. He was about to throw off the seven-treasure agate in his hand and attacked him. Dou Shen kept holding his hand calmly, "The Yuan proofreader was always elegant during the meal. You don't have to worry about Gao Yue. As the saying goes, ridicule the prostitute - look at me."
Then Dou Shen said loudly, "Yi Song is indeed very literary and eloquent. How about we recite poems on the topic of Wang Tuantuan, who is with him?"
Hearing this, Wang Tuantuan was so scared that she was shaking all over, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. Finally, the knife was still slaughtered on her neck.
It is already difficult enough to make a living in the Shun Wall Song, and now it is still mocked and trampled by these noble men.
