Chapter 0342 The value of a jar of wine (Hahaha, I lied to you!)(1/2)
Today's Zhao Guang can be regarded as one of the best among the second generation officials of the Han Dynasty.
Except for Guan Xing and Zhang Bao, even his eldest brother Zhao Tong was not as famous as him.
After hearing what he said, the person opposite had to step aside, but still said: "If Zhao Langjun wants to drink, you have a jar of wine, which was left behind by the late emperor when he ascended the throne to reward the ministers."
Zhao Guang stepped forward and stopped suddenly, turned around hesitantly, his throat moved, "Is this true?"
"Don't dare to deceive each other."
Zhao Guang looked at the visitor again and said, "Xu Zian, please tell me your intention first."
Xu You saw the relief in Zhao Guang's tone and said quickly, "Mr. Zhao, please rest assured. You are here not to provoke, but to ask Mr. Zhao to be the middleman."
"Then you have the guts to pick a fight."
Zhao Guang was unafraid.
Xu You's face turned red all of a sudden, and he was greatly humiliated, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "Zhao Langjun is now serving in the army in the Prime Minister's Palace, how can he be compared to a mediocre person like me?"
Xu You, also known as Zian, his eldest son, named Xu Qin, died young.
But he had an eldest father named Xu Jing, who was a famous figure in the world. When the late emperor ascended the throne, he was named Situ and ranked among the three princes. Even the prime minister was subordinate to him and had to bow to him.
But it is a pity that although Xu You has such a good family background, he is an unfortunate guy.
It's okay that you died before your eldest father. My eldest father had only been a Situ for less than two years and he also died, leaving only Xu You who was less than a weakling.
Although Xu Jing and Xu Ci are both named Xu, they are not close relatives.
One is the Xu family in Runan and the other is the Xu family in Nanyang.
But at any rate, both of them took refuge in Jiaozhou together, and came to Shu together. They can't write two characters in one sentence. Since the two families trace their origins, they both have the same ancestor, and they came to Shu to take refuge together, so they both
It's close to home.
After Xu Jing's death, Xu Ci took care of Xu You, so Xu You called Xu Xun his elder brother.
Xu Xun was the eldest son of the Xu family who went to the Guan family to propose marriage but failed, and later had one of his legs blackmailed by the two daughters of Guan and Zhang.
In Zhao Guang's eyes, Xu Xun was the one who wanted to corner his brother. Unfortunately, before he could swing his hoe, his leg was broken by two corners.
And since Xu You and Xu Xun are from the same Xu family, he will naturally not look down upon him.
"Langjun Zhao, my cousin Meng Lang offended the daughter of the Guan family before, and now I know that I was wrong."
Xu You said in a low voice, "My cousin heard that Zhao Langjun and the female young master of the Guan family are like sisters, so I want to ask Zhao Langjun to send a message to the female young master of the Guan family. If there is a chance, he will definitely apologize to the female young master of the Guan family in person.
"
After Xu You said these words, his face was already red enough to bleed.
At the same time, I cursed that thing called my brother in my heart. Damn it, if it wasn't for the sake of my uncle taking care of me, I would have killed you!
Just because of his slip of the tongue, not only did he lose his uncle's face, but he even used up the last bit of his dead father's face. It was really not a joke!
Although Zhao Guang sometimes acted foolishly, he was not the real one. Seeing Xu You like this, he felt a little emotional in his heart. Xu Jing was so famous all over the world that even the prime minister wanted to bow to him. He didn't expect that his descendants would end up like this.
situation.
"Let's go, let's talk after we go in."
After all, Zhao Guang didn't want to push people too far, so he gave Xu You a face, or in other words, gave a face to the dead Xu Jing.
After entering the private room and sitting down separately, Zhao Guang said, "Xu Zian, after all you are also the founding father of the country, why are you here?"
After hearing this, Xu You showed bitterness on his face and shook his head, "It's hard to explain in words."
If it were normal, if he offended the Guan family, he would be offended. Anyway, the tiger girl of the Guan family also broke one of his cousin's legs, so the matter was even.
If two families have a grudge, they will grudge each other, and at most they will not have any contact with each other.
But it's different now, because the Han Dynasty wants to develop cultural affairs. This is a matter that attracts everyone's attention. How many people are trying to get in?
At that time, my uncle was also one of the people in charge of the classics. It stands to reason that he would be the one to compile and annotate the classics. But now that something like this suddenly happened, who knows what will happen?
Because the paper came from Nanxiang, the first name on the credit list is Feng Yong.
And this matter was initiated by the Guan family, and the Zhang family was the first to respond.
Who knows why the little lady of the Zhang family would be cruel to her cousin?
I don’t know if the Zhang family also has opinions on the Xu family?
So after all this calculation, it is basically a certainty that my uncle will be implicated in this matter.
Don't forget that there are still people who want to participate in this matter. By pushing others out, doesn't it give yourself more hope? Such a good excuse, anyone would know how to use it.
It's just that Xu You couldn't explain these things clearly to Zhao Guang.
At the same time, he thought, if his eldest father was still there, why would he be in this situation? But now his uncle is the only person he can rely on. If he doesn't help, what else can he do?
Everyone has their own difficulties when it comes to household chores. After all, Xu You was one of Zhao Guang's many bad friends before, so he could naturally guess some of Xu You's difficulties.
Even he himself, before he followed his brother to make a career, wasn't he often beaten to death by his own adults?
Zhao Guang let out a long sigh and said, "To this day, it seems that you still don't understand why Xu Xun was beaten. In view of the friendship between us in the past, I remind you, don't say that you are looking for my sister in this matter.
Even looking for the Guan family brother is useless."
As soon as he said this, Xu You looked at Zhao Guang in surprise, "Brother Zhao... what does this mean?"
After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively with some disbelief, "Is it possible that there is some secret behind this?"
Zhao Guang sneered, "Where's the inside story? It's just that you can't understand it. Bring me some wine and transfer the conversation, I'll accept it."
As he spoke, he put his hands on the table and spread them out.
"good."
Although Zhao Guang didn't finish what he said, Xu You also got a piece of news from the side. I'm afraid the root cause of this matter is not the female young master of the Guan family.
So he clapped his hands happily, and saw a woman coming out from behind the screen in the private room, holding a jar of wine in her hand.
Although Zhao Guang's thoughts were all focused on his Aunt Huang, when he took the wine from the woman's hand, he still couldn't help but look at her twice.
After the woman curled into the screen, Xu You said, "Brother Zhao, this is the daughter of my uncle's family, called Er Niang. Although she is not a daughter of aristocratic family, a good family girl can still afford it."
"She had been engaged to someone since she was a child, but due to the war a few years ago, there was no one in her husband's family before she could get married."
"Um?"
Zhao Guang glanced at Xu You and felt a little strange, thinking, "What do you mean by telling me this?"
"Even though the second mother never came to the house, she still observed the mourning period for the husband's family for three years, so this lifelong matter was delayed."
Xu You coughed and said a little embarrassed.
Zhao Guang thought he understood what he meant, and he was about to start a crime and scold this person angrily, but Xu You's next words held him down.
"I heard that all the girls around Feng Langjun are older people. I think she might like older ones. This second lady has a good temperament and is also good at serving others. If Feng Langjun doesn't give up, let her do it on weekdays.
It’s okay to drink water every day.”
"What are you talking about? Is my brother so... um... um?"
After Zhao Guang heard this, his anger surged. He was about to get angry, but something suddenly occurred to him, but he was speechless for the rest of the words.
Did the Xu family really not know or did they just happen to meet each other? They unexpectedly found the key to solving the problem.
Thinking of this, Zhao Guang hesitated again.
Although Xu You said this was an older matter, he could tell that the focus was actually on his previous engagement with someone else!
Zhao Guang naturally knew about Jincheng's rumors about his brother.
Even his elder brother had been engaged to a daughter of the Li family in Xiali Village, so he understood her better than others.
Needless to say about Sister Guan.
It is simply unreasonable to say that my brother asked Li Mu to be the manager of the textile workshop!
And don't mention it, since Li Mu took office, this textile workshop feels more organized than before.
So that Li Mu is also strange, and he would do his best to help his brother manage this stall.
Is there anything fishy in this?
This led to Zhao Guang sometimes feeling that although most of Jincheng's rumors were false, they might not be true at all.
Now that I hear Xu You's words again, it seems that he also believes that his brother has this preference, right?
The more Zhao Guang thought about it, the more suspicious he became. His brother wouldn't take it seriously, would he?
But this matter put him in a dilemma.
Do you want to refuse this matter? If your brother really likes this tune, wouldn't you ruin your brother's good deeds?
Just agree, what if you think wrong?
Zhao Guang thought for a while and suddenly had an idea. He looked at Xu You and said, "How can my brother like an ordinary woman? Unless that second lady has some special skills."
He didn't know whether his brother liked this tune, but he knew his other hobby, which was to find craftsmen to do weird things.
At the same time, he thought in his heart, even if his brother is not good at this, there is a serious shortage of people in the Hanzhong workshop now. As long as she has some special skills, I will have an excuse to send her to Hanzhong.
