There was a pavilion with bamboo curtains hanging halfway down, covering the naked bodies of Dai Tongzhi, Li Jingren and Ye Tuiguan. The three of them each had a wooden couch, covered with snow-white sheets, lying on the couch with two hands pushing on their backs, smelling the fragrance of flowers outside the pavilion and listening to the singing of birds in their ears, making one feel ecstatic.
Dai Tongzhi knew that Ye Tuiguan didn't like brothel romance after the incident in Yihong Courtyard last time, so he invited him to have tea, drink, and massage. This Lin's Qiaoyin shop used to be a place where Dai Tongzhi and Li Jing often came, but now there is just another Ye Xiaotian.
"More force..."
Ye Xiaotian lay there, already a little drowsy, feeling the softness on his back, so he gave a warning. The rather charming little girl in obscene clothes said softly: "This master, I am not a servant who is not willing to give up strength. He likes soft muscles but hates rigidity. Only proper strength can activate qi and blood, strengthen the body and eliminate evil. It’s not that the more painful, the better.”
Ye Xiaotian made two "huh" and said, "It's just that you pressed me so hard that I almost fell asleep."
While speaking, Li Jingli on the right was lying on the couch, and the sound had already risen. Dai Tongzhi on the left smiled and said: "If my brother is tired, it's okay to take a nap." Looking at his gentle and elegant appearance, it's really hard to imagine that this person has such a ruthless side.
Ye Xiaotian said: "I don't have the habit of taking naps during the day. If I don't sleep enough, I will feel even more uncomfortable. It's better not to sleep."
Dai Tong knew: "Since that's the case, you and I can chat and wake up. I have known you for a while, but I still don't understand you well. I heard that you are a native of Tongren?"
Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and thought: "How could I become a local?" Then he remembered that for the sake of being a scholar, Li Jiaoyu deliberately changed his household registration to Tongren Mansion. This kind of thing is just for scientific examinations. But there is no need to hide it, Dai Tongzhi is Zhang Zhifu's confidant, he is a local snake, this kind of thing can't be hidden from him at all, and it would be unbeautiful for him to find out afterwards.
Ye Xiaotian said frankly: "Brother Dai, I dare not hide it. In fact, I am from the capital. I was originally just a prison guard in the prison. At the beginning, I was entrusted by someone to send a letter from my family to the south of the Yangtze River, but something went wrong. Guizhou…”
Ye Xiaotian picked up what he could say, and told Dai Tongzhi. Dai Tongzhi was instructed by Yu Junting to win over Ye Xiaotian. Yu Junting saw Ye Xiaotian's style of dealing with people at Yuji brick and tile shop that day, and suddenly felt pity for talents, so he wanted to recruit Ye Xiaotian for his own use.
But what she planned is not visible, if you want to recruit someone for your own use, of course you have to understand his background, she is a daughter, it is not convenient to come forward, so she handed over the matter to Dai Tongzhi. Dai Tongzhi took this opportunity to get close to Ye Xiaotian.
At this time, people are most relaxed physically and mentally, and also least vigilant, and it is easier to find out the truth. He has already done some research on Ye Xiaotian beforehand, knowing his real background, and when he heard that Ye Xiaotian did not hide anything, he said: "Hehe, That’s how it is. Heroes don’t care about background, I just have a good birth, if my background is like yours, it may not be as good as your achievements today.”
Dai Tongzhi coughed, and said again: "It's just that my brother is an official in Guizhou, so I have wronged you."
Ye Xiaotian said: "What do you mean by Brother Dai?"
Dai Tong knew: "My virtuous brother is shrewd and capable, and he is so young. If a seventh-rank official of this age is placed in the Central Plains, he will make many achievements and be appreciated by the superior. Under the control of the chieftain, although the younger brother is talented, it is very difficult for him to have a chance to be promoted."
Ye Xiaotian fell silent when he heard this, as if he felt something in his heart, a little depressed.
Dai Tongzhi glanced at him, and suddenly said: "However, if you say that there is absolutely no chance, it is not the case. You must know that the chieftain's family has been passed down for thousands of years, and the unshakeable hereditary position is certainly one reason, but if the descendants are unworthy, it is hard to guarantee that you will be able to die." It will not ruin the ancestors. Therefore, many chieftains not only pay attention to the cultivation of nephews, but also pay attention to discovering talents for their own use... "
The situation Dai Tongzhi said is equivalent to a joint-stock company in today's terms. The boss created a property, which should have been passed on to his son, but his son was not up to date, and he hired a professional manager without the talent in this area. Take care of the property for him, while his sons hold the shares.
In this case, it is the law that guarantees that the owner of the equity will not change. No matter whether the person he hires is the president or the CEO, it is impossible to replace him. What the chieftains relied on was the hereditary inheritance granted by the imperial court and the maintenance of the order of interests by other chieftains.
Ye Xiaotian sighed and said: "What brother Dai said, my younger brother naturally understands it. It's just... the master of enlightenment is hard to find..."
Ye Xiaotian was quiet, and then vomited bitterness to Dai Tongzhi: "Brother Dai, you don't understand, I am a low-level official appointed by the imperial court, but I am an official in a place where local officials hold power. Only a big tree can be leaned on, how can I figure it out?"
If you want to tell the truth, you have to be seven points true and three points false. Ye Xiaotian understood this truth when he was very young, so he took the opportunity to clarify his relationship with the Xia family of Hongfeng Lake, and then said: "Where do you go?" , the younger brother is also very at a loss now. In fact, it should be pretty good to have the current official position, seniority, and years of experience, but I... after all, I am a little unwilling... "
Dai Tongzhi smiled slightly, and if he had a deep meaning, he said: "Fate is not afraid of luck. Brother, you can go from being a jailer in the capital's prison to today. You are obviously a person with great luck. In time, I'm afraid no one will see you." Do you know pearls? Just wait patiently for the right time!"
After finishing the massage, the three of them drank a few more cups of tea, then put on their robes, and came out of Lin's Qiaoyin shop calmly. Going up to meet him, he said: "Oh, Mr. Dai, I have found you. The little one just went to your house to look for it. The magistrate please go there immediately."
Dai Tongzhi was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Do you know what the urgent matter is?"
The Zaoli answered a few words in a low voice, Li Jingjing and Ye Xiaotian stood aside, vaguely heard "Shengmiao came out of the mountain", "Tixisi is very nervous", "The magistrate is in a mess", Li Jingjing still Somewhat dazed, Ye Xiaotian's lips curled slightly as he pretended to be looking around, and a smile quickly passed by.
※※※
"The seedlings have come out of the mountain, what's going on?"
When Yu Junting heard Dai Tongzhi say this, he was taken aback.
Sheng Miao lives in the deep mountains, and has been decoupled from the outside world for too long, and they know too little about each other. And ethnic groups with a relatively higher level of civilization always have a feeling of barbarism, ignorance, and unreasonableness towards ethnic groups that are more backward. Yu Junting was no exception, so he was very apprehensive about the migration of seedlings to Tixisi.
Dai Chonghua said: "It's not clear yet, this Shengmiao tribe has never greeted anyone in advance, they drilled out of the 100,000 mountains, and suddenly appeared in the south of Tixisi, where they started to build a cottage, and raised Xisi received the news from the Kuaima newspaper, and has not received any orders from the government, so he has not reacted yet."
Yu Junting said: "What's the fat man's idea?"
Dai Chonghua spread his hands and said: "What ideas does he have? Just let me discuss with Yulong, arrange a suitable person, go to contact with that tribe first, see what they want to do, and then make plans."
Yu Junting walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and pondered: "To the south of Tixi, it is very close to Mount Mercury."
Dai Chonghua nodded and said, "It's close at hand!"
Yu Junting suddenly turned his head back, and said to Wen Ao who was standing beside him: "Immediately ask Hai Long to stop provoking Liangyue Valley. Now the situation is unknown, don't fight between snipe and clam, the fisherman will benefit!"
Wen Ao agreed and hurried down to make arrangements. Dai Tongzhi also got up and said to Junting: "The magistrate is still waiting for my news, so I can't delay, I'll go back first."
Yu Junting agreed, and then instructed: "First find out how many people there are in the Shengmiao tribe, why they came out of the mountain, and what their intentions are. Don't act rashly."
Dai Chonghua promised, turned around to leave, and suddenly remembered something, turned around and said: "By the way, Master Jianzhou asked me to contact Ye Xiaotian. According to my current understanding, this person has no problems. He is a young man, and he also has ambitions. It should be usable by Master Jianzhou."
Yu Junting is now concerned about the sudden arrival of the seedlings from Tixisi, and he has no intention of doing more consultation on this matter, so he nodded and said: "You continue to contact him, and understand him carefully."
Dai Chonghua nodded and left. After a while, Wen Ao arranged for a messenger to rush to Tixi Yu's home, and then turned back to the hall. Yu Junting said: "At the moment, I don't quite understand why this Shengmiao tribe moved to Tixi, but if If they want to stay here, it's hard to say that it won't affect our plans. You can ask someone to inform Yang Tianwang about this matter, and our plans will be suspended for the time being.
After Dai Tongzhi left, Ye Xiaotian and Li Chin broke up on Changjie and went back to their respective mansions. As soon as Ye Xiaotian entered the door, Ruo Xiaosheng came over and reported: "Master, Ms. Dooni and Mr. Ye are back, and they also brought an old man who seduced me. Hehe, their names are so weird that I didn't remember them." .”
Ye Xiaotian focused his eyes and said, "Oh? Are they in the living room?"
"yes!"
Ye Xiaotian walked towards the living room, and when he got to the living room, he took a quick look and saw an old man in black robes sitting there talking to Ye Lao. Although Ye Xiaotian didn't have much contact with him, he remembered the names of the eight elders As soon as he saw this person, he remembered that this was the elder seducer who was promoted to the throne at the same time as Ye Lao.
Yinggou Lao was chatting with Ye Lao, when he saw Ye Xiaotian come in, he hurriedly stepped forward to see him, at this time there was no servant waiting in the hall, so he generously saluted Ye Xiaotian: "Your subordinate Yingou, I have seen the venerable! The Dulao tribe has moved to Tixi to wait for orders, and the subordinates are entrusted by the elders to stay in the tribe and wait for His Holiness' orders!"
Ye Xiaotian smiled and said: "Elder Yingou has worked hard, I only have one instruction: 'There, stand still!'"
