"Master, this is news from the palace." The servant hunched his back and walked behind Liu Liu, offering a letter with both hands.
Liu Liu was wearing his regular clothes and reached out to take the letter. He has his own eyeliner in the palace. Now that he is an official, who hasn't placed a few people in the palace
After reading the letter, Liu Liu laughed: "The emperor has a romantic temperament, and he still has the mind to play with the golden house."
The servant is an old servant who has followed Liu Liu. He is honest and honest, but he actually has a delicate heart. He knows what to ask and what not to ask. At this time, he also shows a smile: "The emperor is young, it is the time to play."
"I don't know which concubine has such a good life."
Liu Liu sneered: "If it's a concubine, as for sending this letter to me? What can I say about the matter in the palace?"
The old servant was a little surprised: "It's not the goddess, is it the palace maid? This..."
Since ancient times, many palace maids in the emperor's harem have been promoted to the throne, but Han Lin'er is different. Almost all the women in his harem were picked by Liu Futong. When he spoiled a maid, wouldn't this be a slap in the face of Liu Futong
"That palace maid has the ability." Liu Liu walked into the room, set the letter on fire, and said with a cigarette, "Although he has no name, he is by the emperor's side, and he can even enter and exit the imperial study room at will, not to mention the queen. Concubine Li Gui can't match her, if she's a fool, that's all, but if she's a fool, can she win over the emperor?"
The old servant said, "After all, it's a matter of the harem. It has nothing to do with the previous dynasty, and it doesn't interfere with your business, Master."
Liu Liu: "That's a bad statement. The harem of the former dynasty has always touched the whole body. The emperor's affairs have never been divided into family affairs and state affairs. They are all family affairs."
The old servant didn't understand: "What does the master mean?"
Liu Liu smiled and said: "The palace maid's surname is An, she is the younger sister of a small official in the north of the city, she has no father or mother, only her brother and sister-in-law are alive, if I can get her brother and sister-in-law to me before everyone else, it will be control. Did you live with her?"
The old servant knew clearly: "Master is wise! Master is wise!"
"I'm going to back up the gift for me, send it to Anjia, and then go to Hongyun Restaurant to buy a table, and invite the palace maid's brother to the restaurant." Liu Liu, "She is by the emperor's side, so she knows the emperor's movements better than ordinary people. I Knowing more than others will naturally bring more benefits.”
Although Han Liner had no real power, no officials wanted to offend him. After all, Han Liner was young, and Liu Futong's age was there. When Liu Futong died, Han Liner would definitely regain power, and all officials would have to find their own seats again.
Liu Liu didn't want to find a way back when the time came.
An Lao Si was shocked when he learned that Liu Liu invited him to drink, and was in a state of extreme excitement all day long. He and his wife stayed in Anfeng for too long, but they never opened the situation. , I don't even know what to pass a letter to Lin Yuan, An Laosi has been doing the work of a small official, and all the money he brought before is used for management, and now he really lives on his salary.
An wife got along well with the nearby family members, and even took some needlework to subsidize the family.
An Laosi has been decadent for a long time. He looks for ways everywhere, but when it touches the interests of others, the way he can find is very limited.
He believes that he can climb up by his own ability, but time waits for no one, and he does not have the time to take it slow.
Liu Liu's invitation gave him a boost.
An Lao Si swept away the haze before and said to his wife, "I'm afraid this is due to the red sleeves."
An wife said worriedly: "I don't know how she is in the palace. I haven't sent a letter for a few days. Anyway, there was a message before, which also let us know if she is safe in the palace."
An Lao Si: "You believe me, Nan Bodhisattva has never forgotten An Feng, he will call at the latest in the coming year."
An wife: "You know again?"
An Lao Si smiled and said in a low voice, "You don't understand people like Nan Bodhisattva."
"In the eyes of people like them, everything in the world belongs to him." An Lao Si said, "So what he wants, he must get it. Now that the imperial court has struck a blow, Nan Bodhisattva has won it again. Hanyang and Anfeng are the last stumbling blocks."
An wife: "Go and test it out, then Liu Liu is looking for you, it must be because of Hong Xiu, if Hong Xiu is favored by Han Lin'er, it will be fine, if it causes trouble..."
An Lao Si: "Don't worry, if she really caused a big problem, it's not Liu Liu who came to me. At this time, the officers and soldiers should surround us. You, if you care, you will be confused."
An wife smiled: "Yeah, I forgot about this."
An Lao Si changed his clothes and went directly to the restaurant Liu Liu found.
This restaurant can be regarded as the most luxurious restaurant in Anfeng. The people who come to dine here are either dignitaries or wealthy businessmen. They wear silk and satin and eat big fish and meat.
An Lao Si felt a little funny.
They oppose the Yuan Dynasty, and what they say is to complain about the injustice of the people of the world. Now that they are in power, what is the difference between them and the Yuan Dynasty
Speaking of high-sounding, in fact, it is only for self-interest.
"Brother An is here." Liu Liu is a capable person, able to bend and stretch, and he is willing to call himself a brother to a little official like An Lao Si. He smiled and said with a smile, "I heard the name of Brother An before, and he is a capable official. I want to see you, but unfortunately I have been busy with government affairs, and Dao is only now free."
An Lao Si was flattered, he tried his best to play the role of an ordinary little official with shallow eyelids, and laughed: "This, I, you are really ridiculous! It's all your own business, all your own business! Thanks to Master Liu, the villain is really, really…”
As he spoke, his eyes reddened, and he immediately cried: "The villain is devoted to his duties and diligently lived. If you can get the words of Lord Liu, the villain will not do it in vain!"
Liu Liu's smile was a little stiff. I'm afraid this person was not dispatched by a petty official.
"Come here, sit down first, then sit down and talk, the two of us are talking while drinking." Liu Liu filled the wine.
After a few glasses of wine, An Lao Si said more.
"Master Liu, you don't know, I came here as a refugee, and I was separated from my family. Only my wife and I came to Anfeng." An Laosi cried sincerely, "I managed to gain a firm foothold, and the trustee found my sister. , the family has not waited long for the reunion, and my sister entered the palace."
"She grew up with me since childhood. She has a weak temperament, and she has no opinion of herself. She is weak, but she is beautiful. I am afraid that she will suffer in the palace." Although I don’t have much ability, I can support my family, I don’t want anything else, I just want to reunite the family.”
Seeing that he was almost drinking, Liu Liu asked, "Is that girl of yours weak?"
An Lao Si nodded: "She didn't like to talk when she was a child. In our village, when other children bullied her, she only dared to cry secretly. Her parents bought her a candy man and was robbed by other children. You can only say that she ate it by herself, with her temperament, where is the material for living in the palace?"
Liu Liu filled An Lao Si again and smiled: "You can't say that, there is a place for a smart person, and a weak girl is not a bad girl, maybe even more lovable."
An Lao Si stared at Liu Liu in disbelief: "What do you mean... Is it because my sister was spotted?"
"Which adult is that?"
Liu Liu looked at him with a half-smile, as if everything was silent.
An Lao Si suddenly widened his eyes, and seemed to wake up instantly from fright. He stammered and asked, "Could it be..."
Liu Liu smiled and said, "Brother An, you have a good girl."
An Lao Si: "This... this... "
Liu Liu: "This is her creation. How many women in the world are as lucky as her?"
An Lao Si's expression was full of shock and disbelief.
Liu Liu added: "This official has also thought about it, my brother, you have never done anything wrong, and you are literate and literate, why don't you come to me and be a clerk? The salary is more than what you have now, and it will be easier to climb up in the future. ."
Liu Liu's meaning is also very clear, which is equivalent to saying directly to An Lao Si: "I helped you because of your sister. Since I helped you, I will naturally benefit from it. Everyone understands, so don't hide it. I understand pretending to be confused."
After drinking all night, An Lao Si will take office tomorrow.
After he returned, he also said to his wife, "Hongxiu is now in the palace, and has become a celebrity. He is quite favored by Han Lin'er. Otherwise, Liu Liu would not have gone to great lengths to win over a little official like me."
After thinking about it, his wife said: "I think Liu Liu has placed a lot of people in the palace. Not many people outside know about Hongxiu's favor. Otherwise, our yard should be full of invitations and gifts at this time."
Watching people cook, many people don't need to learn this at all, they will know it when they are born.
An Lao Si went to a big pot of hot water, put it at his wife's feet, rolled up his sleeves to wash his wife's feet.
When they came to Anfeng, the couple played the role of the poor. They spent all their savings in order to buy an official, and they had to rely on their wife to do needlework to subsidize the family. Over time, An Lao Si has really changed a bit. He never knew it before. To wash his wife's feet, in his opinion, that is not what a big man should do.
An Lao Si said while washing his wife's feet, "I just don't know when Hong Xiu will send us a letter. It would be better if we can meet. I think she has collected a lot of information these days."
But his wife didn't listen to what he was saying. She suddenly said, "I know why Liu Liu came. It was Hong Xiu who disclosed the news of his favor to Liu Liu."
An Lao Si said strangely: "What do you reveal to him? Although he is a high-ranking official, he is not very useful."
The wife sighed, and the husband likes to dig into the horns, she reminded: "Du Zundao."
An Lao Si: "… "
He took a breath and said to his wife, "Hong Xiu is really... really bold..."
An wife also said with some admiration: "Have a scheming and skill, make a decisive decision, An Lao Si, you are not as good as her."
An Lao Si: "...how do you call your husband?"
An wife couldn't help laughing: "If you don't go to the top of the bull's horn and go all the way to the dark, I will stop talking about you and praise you day and night, what do you think?"
An Lao Si shuddered: "It's okay to praise me day and night..."
He also muttered in a low voice, "I don't know where I learned it from, and I'm getting choked up more and more."
