Chapter 29: Lord, you need to pay more!
In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng seemed even more angry because he kicked out the Qin King's Sword.
"The sword of the King of Qin is lost! The sword of the King of Qin is lost! Ancestors of the Ying family! Why do you also want to protect this rebellious son!" Ying Zheng attributed the fact that the sword of the King of Qin was kicked out of the Zhangtai Palace to the apparition of the ancestors of the Ying family.
Ying Fusu added: "Confucius does not talk about strange things, strength, chaos, and gods. Confucius does not talk about strange things, strength, violence, ghosts and gods. The talk of ghosts and gods..."
"Shut up, you rebellious son!" Ying Zheng shouted, shaking with anger. "If it weren't for the blessing of our ancestors, I would use my extraordinary strength to beat you unconscious right now! Don't appear in my sight again! I order you to go to Shangjun tomorrow!"
Kindness leads to foolishness, and virtue leads to corruption. I hope this trip to Shangjun can help this rebellious son see things more clearly!
"If your Majesty does not agree to Fusu's request today, Fusu will not leave!" Ying Fusu faced Ying Zheng and knelt on his knees.
Ying Zheng's face turned pale. This time he was really angry. Ying Fusu had disappointed him so much !
"Then you will kneel here until you die!" Ying Zheng walked to the desk angrily, picked up the bamboo slips and reviewed them one by one, and heard the beating sounds outside the hall disappear.
"Gai Nie."
"I am here."
"The palace's secret guards have always been in charge of Cheng Jiao. As the leader of the secret guards, you are now also in charge of the seal and talisman orders. Have you told Cheng Jiao about this?"
“… Never.”
Gai Nie was afraid that Ying Chengjiao would launch a mutiny, so when the court meeting began, he waited not far from the Xianyang Palace to protect Ying Zheng.
When the court meeting was over, Ying Zheng saw Gai Nie and asked him to take charge of the affairs of the imperial seal and the imperial order. Gai Nie had been following Ying Zheng closely until now, so how could Gai Nie have the time to report to Ying Chengjiao?
"You are here beside me. Although you are still the leader of the secret guards, you can't patrol as usual. The safety of the palace cannot be ignored. While there is nothing else to do, go and talk to Cheng Jiao. You can't get away, and the deputy commander Zhao Gao is injured again. Let him make arrangements early and assign a new deputy commander to patrol."
It turned out that the eldest son was kneeling for a long time and refused to get up, which meant nothing happened.
The secret guards only protect Your Majesty. The safety of the palace is the responsibility of the Imperial Guards. Since when did it become the responsibility of the secret guards?
Someone needs to inspect the palace and give Zhao Gao ten strokes of the cane to cripple him...
Gai Nie resisted the urge to look at Ying Zheng's facial expression and responded without any emotion: "Yes."
Standing up and turning his back to Ying Zheng, Gai Nie walked to the door of the palace and pushed it open.
"Gai Nie."
"I am here."
"Say what you should say, and don't say what you shouldn't say."
Gai Nie's expressionless face twitched the corners of his mouth.
Your Majesty, there is no need to hint so obviously.
"only."
After walking out of Zhangtai Palace, Gai Nie suddenly felt a sense of familiarity with Ying Zheng, the greatest emperor of all time, as if they were heroes with similar views.
Any difficult matters that are not related to swords can be left to you, young master!
Tower.
"Manager, do you know what happened in the court today?" The fat man, with vegetable soup all over his body, sneered.
The position of the female steward was a long way from attending the imperial court, so naturally she had no idea what was happening there.
Chang'an Jun never attends court, so what happens in court should have nothing to do with Chang'an Jun, right?
"In the court today, Ying Chengjiao was fined three years' salary by His Majesty. I'm afraid he won't be able to come to the tower often in the next three years. It's possible that Chang'an Jun can't even afford to pay for the table he overturned today!"
The housekeeper's pretty face turned pale.
I have never heard of any property of Chang'an Jun. If his salary is fined, wouldn't Chang'an Jun be left with no money?
If this is really the case, she, as the building manager, will soon be sentenced to prison.
"You are such a joke, my guest. Your Excellency has not been to the court for ten years. How could he be fined in the court? I'm afraid it's not just some untrue rumor you heard from somewhere?"
"Brother Li is right." Behind the fat guest, a young man with a pale face, who was obviously drained of his body by alcohol and sex, laughed sinisterly, "My father is a doctor in the court. He told me personally that Ying Chengjiao offended His Majesty and was fined three years' salary!"
"Yes, that's true! Hehe, be careful in your dealings!"
"Ying Chengjiao has not made any income in the past three years! If you still want to be called a manager, get out of that bastard's arms!"
"My brother, who has an annual salary of 1,000 dan, told me about this."
The guests on the pavilion were talking in twos and threes.
They were all upper class people in the Qin State, so it was easy for them to get some insignificant news from the court.
If one person says it might be fake news, but if a group of people say it, then it can basically be confirmed.
The sinister young man who drank too much and whose father was a doctor laughed lewdly and said, "Now that things have come to this, if you don't want to be sentenced, you can't just expel Ying Chengjiao by calling someone in charge."
"Brother Lu, what do you think?" the fat guest started the conversation, and the two of them worked in perfect harmony.
The sinister young man's greedy eyes were as real as substance, wantonly wandering over the housekeeper's body, and lingering on her face.
"Ying Chengjiao spends money in Loutai, but what we spend in Loutai is not money? The steward only serves Ying Chengjiao, how unfair! If you still want us to support Loutai's business, the steward must use the methods he used to serve Ying Chengjiao on us."
The sinister young man glanced at the number of people on his side.
"An ordinary woman can only be a bride for one night, but the steward is taking advantage of us today. If we each get one night, the steward can be a bride for more than 40 nights!"
Most of the people who come to the building are female servants and prostitutes who are looking for pleasure.
Persuading a prostitute to become a good woman is a strange idea that only appeared in later generations!
At that moment, every guest had a smile on his face that all men understood, and there was a green light in their eyes.
The housekeeper's face was as pale as snow.
The more than forty guests were like forty vicious wolves, staring at her with such terrifying eyes!
If I really have to accompany everyone present for one night, wouldn't I become a lowly thing like a concubine!
At this time, I don’t know which guest said something.
"We should be kind to women, so how can we let the steward work so hard?"
The female steward just relaxed a little when she heard the voice continue: "If you ask me, why don't we all join together? Forty dragons playing with one phoenix, wouldn't it be fun?"
The guests’ eyes lit up, it sounded good!
They had visited the tower before and had played with women before, but they had never played like this!
A cautious guest said, "There isn't a room this big in the tower, right? If you do this outside the tower, you will be castrated!"
Another sinister young man spoke up again: "No need for a room, this lobby is perfect. If you still think it's too small, just open the inner door. The distance from the inner door to the outer door can also be considered as inside the building!"
In an instant, the female manager's eyes went dark, and if Ying Chengjiao had not held her, she would have collapsed to the ground.
So many people together... such a vicious thing! How could you say it?
The outer door of the building is always open all year round and is never closed day or night.
If you do shameful things in the courtyard, the people passing by outside the building can all see your ugly behavior!
With the trend of being a new thing in Xianyang City in the past ten years, within three days, she will replace Ying Chengjiao and become the talk of the town among the people of Xianyang for the next ten years!
"cough!"
The nobleman Zhang Ziqing coughed and bowed to all the guests.
"Brother Zhang and I came here only to drink and eat. Now that we have had enough, we will say goodbye and see you again if we are lucky."
After saying this, Zhang Zi left the two gold coins where they were.
"Humph! A bunch of scum!"
The burly man picked up a big hammer and put it on his shoulder. He spat at the guests who were previously in the same camp with him, and was pulled away from the balcony by Zhang Zi.
When the two reached the inner gate.
"You two, if you encounter any difficulties, you can come to Chang'an Junfu to find me!" Ying Chengjiao chuckled.
With his temper, he would have thrown a table at the sinister man as soon as he said the first sentence.
The reason why he didn't take any action was that he wanted to see how Zhang Zi would act.
"Thank you very much."
Zhang Zi stopped, turned around, clasped his fists, and left with the burly man.
Zhang Zi, the name is interesting and the person is interesting too.
The damaged table cost only one gold coin, and the food and wine on the table cost only a hundred coins. But this man kept two gold coins, one gold coin is worth a thousand coins. Qin State did not have a nobleman named Zhang who was so generous.
"Hypocritical! Worse than those corrupt scholars!"
"Maybe it's the descendant of a saint!"
"If a saint does not think about the affairs of men and women, how can he have descendants?"
"Hahaha, absolutely, absolutely! Manager! Why don't you come over here!"
After the two men left, the forty-six guests became forty-four, which for the housekeeper was no different from the previous situation.
It seemed that all the remaining guests had bad intentions and showed no signs of leaving.
The female steward forced a smile in Ying Chengjiao's arms, raised her head and said in a trembling voice: "Master Jun, the guests said that you were fined for three years' salary. Is it true?"
If it's true, I'm afraid I'll just have to die!
In fact, the appearance of the female steward in the building cannot be considered stunning. In terms of appearance, the female steward can be ranked in the upper class of the building, but definitely not in the top class.
If she didn't have the identity of the building manager, these guests would never be so impatient.
The key is the bonus of being the manager of the building. How can a girlfriend be a concubine or a branch of a woman be as comfortable as a manager of a woman? What's more, she is very beautiful! In addition to being a person, their girlfriend also has an identity! The manager is a real Qin official!
The guests' collective attack on the steward was more inevitable than accidental.
Loutai has a history of more than 200 years in the Qin State. From the very beginning, women have always been in charge of Loutai.
Before Ying Chengjiao came to the tower, no one would have thought that the steward was not a concubine or a female branch! He was an official!
Apart from the dude Ying Chengjiao, who else would think of marrying a prostitute?
Who can really go?
However, Ying Chengjiao not only dared to think, he also dared to do it!
And he actually did it!
At first, the building manager lived in the same room with Ying Chengjiao. When he staggered to see Ying Chengjiao out the next day, all the guests were jealous.
Why are we concubines and female branches, and you are the one in charge?
Secretly, the steward had received many inquiries from guests about the price, but no guest had ever gotten what they wanted.
Now that they finally got this opportunity, the guests were fantasizing about how to tease the steward while waiting for Ying Chengjiao to self-destruct.
Too many people know about the affairs of the court. Anyone with a certain status knows about this matter and it cannot be faked.
"Of course it's fake! Why did I go to court? Is there a stunning beauty in court?" Ying Chengjiao looked at the guests with disdain. "This lie is too fake. Everyone knows that I haven't been to court for ten years. You might as well say that I broke into the Sixth Prince's Palace and was fined three years' salary by His Majesty after being discovered. This is more reliable."
The female steward felt relieved. Her face, which had not yet regained its color, was pale. She bit Ying Chengjiao's ear and said, "I misunderstood you, sir. Please punish me, sir."
The pressure from the guests forced the housekeeper to completely side with Ying Chengjiao.
Whenever she thought of the forty-plus men, the housekeeper wished she could commit suicide on the spot.
Even if I am sentenced to prison, I must not be humiliated like this!
Ying Chengjiao smiled evilly and said, "Any punishment is fine?"
The housekeeper's face, which was originally extremely pale and would take at least an incense stick of time to regain its color, miraculously showed a hint of redness.
From which ancient book did Chang'an Jun read those shameful methods?
The housekeeper gently licked Ying Chengqiu's ears with the tip of her tongue, making Ying Chengqiu feel itchy from his ears to his heart.
The soft and gentle voice was carried into Ying Chengjiao's ears by the fragrant wind blown by the female manager.
"It costs extra money."
