Chapter 168 Eat flower wine?

The next morning, the Craftsman Si sent two sedan chairs to pick up Chen Zheng and Li Shuang.

The servant who carried the sedan chair before seemed to know Li Shuang's power and did not dare to underestimate him anymore. He took the initiative to ask Li Shuang to sit on his sedan chair.

However, Li Shuang didn't seem to buy it and got into another one.

The two of them sat in a sedan chair and soon arrived at Shennong Temple. After breakfast, they started construction.

Today’s work is very important, which is to put on the beam.

It is time for the sea whale bones to come into play. After all, this temple is called the sea whale bones temple.

With Li Shuang acting as the prince supervisor next to him, the craftsmen of the Craftsman Department no longer dared to be lazy and were very active.

The vertebrae of the sea whale was hung up as the main sorghum, and everyone carefully placed it on the top of the wooden frame.

The vertebrae of the sea whale, also known as the ridge purlin, is connected to the ridge beams and the corners under it, and is supported on three beams.

The two flat sores on the left and right are connected to three beams and are supported on the five beams. The entire structure is supported on the beams that have been installed yesterday.

Layer after layer, layer by layer, the entire wooden temple is basically completed.

Then there are the ribs of the sea whale, which serve mainly as rafters, connected between the main sorghum and the plain sorghum.

Of course, in terms of quantity, the ribs of these sea whales are not enough, so the remaining ones are of course replaced by wooden rafters.

It took nearly a day to complete the effort of putting on the beam, and they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This task is the most difficult and most important. Therefore, after the beam was completed, Zhu Zhengrong, the Chief Secretary of the Craftsman, ordered people to prepare firecrackers and set them off to celebrate.

Zhu Zhengrong came to Chen Zheng and smiled and said, "Master Chen, today is the day to go to Liang, so you can't refuse the dinner, right?"

Chen Zheng thought for a while and nodded, "Then it's better to obey your orders than respect."

Zhu Zhengrong was overjoyed and said, "It's so great, I will arrange it."

There is a temporary washroom in Shennong Temple. After a day of work, the craftsmen naturally need to wash it well.

And Chen Zheng and Li Shuang naturally would not take a bath with them. Zhu Zhengrong had already arranged a single room for this.

After everyone finished washing up, Zhu Zhengrong’s dinner was basically arranged, and the location was Qunyuzhuang not far from Shennongtan.

No need to ask, just by listening to this name, you will know that this rice bowl can be used for meals.

Sure enough, after hearing this name, the eyes of the craftsmen lit up and they made low and strange screams.

Zhu Zhengrong coughed lightly and said, "Don't think about it. We are the Craftsmanship Department and are under the Ministry of Works. Don't worry about eating flower wine!"

The craftsmen were silent. Even if they couldn't eat flower wine, there were singing and dancing performances there, which was great to see.

Chen Zheng and Li Shuang are not the ones who have never seen the world. They are just Qun Yuzhuang? They have even been to Yanyulou.

"Going to that kind of place will not violate your rules, right?" Chen Zheng asked.

Zhu Zhengrong waved his hand and said, "No, of course not. We are just having a meal, and this time the Minister Wang Liangyi will go."

"Since that's the case, let's follow the arrangements of Lord Si Cheng." Chen Zhengdao.

So, a pleasant thing was decided so happily.

Zhu Zhengrong made a gesture of invitation, took the lead, Chen Zheng and Li Shuang followed closely, followed by the craftsmen of the Craftsmanship Department.139

The group walked towards Qunyuzhuang in a mighty manner.

Fortunately, someone greeted Qunyuzhuang beforehand. Otherwise, I would have thought that I was here to smash the situation when I saw such a group of people.

The guys from Qunyuzhuang welcomed everyone in, and the craftsmen naturally sat in the lobby, while Chen Zheng and Li Shuang were led to the private room by Zhu Zhengrong.

Having entered the private room, Chen Zheng looked up and saw a person sitting inside, facing the door.

That person is no one else, Wang Liangyi, the official minister of the Ministry of Works.

When Wang Liangyi saw Chen Zheng coming in, he quickly stood up and bowed, "Master Chen, thank you, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Zheng quickly returned the gift and said, "Mr. Wang has to deal with all kinds of things every day, and he has time to come. It's really rare."

Zhu Zhengrong led Chen Zheng to sit on Wang Liangyi's right hand, let Li Shuang sit on Wang Liangyi's left hand, and then returned to the opposite Wang Liangyi to sit.

After a while, the wine and food were ready. Before everyone could get rid of their chopsticks, two more women came in.

The two women were young and beautiful, wearing light veils. After coming in, Zhu Zhengrong pointed to the two empty seats beside Chen Zheng and Li Shuang and said, "Go and sit there and treat our guests well."

The two women were very professional, and sat down with Chen Zheng and Li Shuang, smiling.

Wang Liangyi laughed and said, "Come on, let's give Master Chen a cup first."

Chen Zheng was still wondering why there were two more women suddenly. At this moment, he saw Wang Liangyi picking up the wine glass and subconsciously took his own.

But the woman next to her seemed to be faster than his hands, so she picked up the wine glass first, so Chen Zheng grabbed the woman's hand directly.

The woman giggled and said, "Young Master, you have hurt me."

Chen Zheng was stunned and quickly let go of his hand. The woman held the wine glass and sent it to Chen Zheng's mouth.

"I'll do it myself." Chen Zheng said a little embarrassedly and took the wine glass over.

Putting down the wine glass, Chen Zheng calmed down and said, "Mr. Wang, is this appropriate? Lord Si Cheng said just now that he would not drink flower wine."

Hearing the word "flower wine", the two women smiled again and said, "Young Master, don't get me wrong. We just eat wine, talk, and sing music. This is not considered flower wine."

Zhu Zhengrong smiled and said, "Master Chen, you heard it, don't worry."

"Why don't you two call female companions?" Li Shuang asked suddenly.

Wang Liangyi coughed lightly and said, "We are the life officials, and it sounds a bit bad when it is spread. But the two of them have no official bodies, so they will naturally be happy."

"Look, everyone outside started to dance." Zhu Zhengrong pointed to the window of the private room and said.

Chen Zheng looked in the direction and danced outside. The dancers all had slender waists and long legs, and their dance postures were graceful and very attractive.

Through the small window, Chen Zheng could also see the craftsmen in the lobby. They stared at the dancers on the stage one by one, their eyes shining with excitement. It could be seen that they were very happy.

Chen Zheng coughed lightly, pulled everyone's eyes back, and said, "I've been tired for a day, so I really don't need a drink girl to accompany me. Please ask this girl to accompany the minister."

When Li Shuang saw it, she also echoed: "No need to be there."

The two stood up at the same time and pushed the wine girl towards Wang Liangyi and Zhu Zhengrong respectively, looking very determined.

Wang Liangyi gave Zhu Zhengrong a look. Zhu Zhengrong understood and said to the two drink girls: "Since the two young masters are not happy, you can go down."
