MTL - Unparalleled Concubine-v2 Chapter 1166 wash the floor

   Chapter 1166 Washing the ground

   In front of you, is Qingyun Avenue!

Zhou Youyi got off the sedan chair, carefully sorted out the official uniforms on his body, and made sure that there was nothing wrong with his manners, and then he walked towards the gate of the prime minister's mansion. After seeing Zhou Youyi coming, he immediately led him towards the study of the Xiangfu.

Zhao Jia's prime minister's mansion is already a big mansion in Yonglefang, but it is far less huge than the Jing'an Hou mansion. Therefore, after walking a few hundred steps, he arrived at the entrance of the prime minister's study, and the servant who led the way stopped at the door. , facing Zhou Youyi slightly bowed his body and said: "Zhou Yushi, my master is waiting for you in the study, you go in."

The so-called prime minister's concierge is a seventh-rank official, Zhao Jia is now a big man in the sky, and the eyes of the people in his family will naturally follow. On weekdays, there are a lot of second-grade and third-grade bigwigs. Zhou Youyi is a seventh-grade censor, these are The servants will naturally not be too respectful to him.

   Zhou Youyi naturally understood the truth. Not only was he not angry, but he nodded and smiled at the servant: "Thank you little brother for leading the way."

   After saying this, he looked up at the study in front of him, took a deep breath, and then stepped forward and knocked on the door of the study.

   "Master Xiang, Xiaguan Zhou is entertaining..."

   Soon, a mellow voice came from the study: "Yushi Zhou, come in."

   Zhou Youyi took a deep breath, pushed the door and walked in, then thumped and knelt in the study.

   "Xiaguan Zhou entertained me and met Master Xiang."

In the study, Zhao Jia, still dressed in white, was holding an ancient book in his hand. Seeing Zhou Youyi kneeling directly on the ground, he frowned, then put down the book in his hand, pointed to the chair in front of him, and frowned. : "Yushi Zhou, you and I are colleagues from the same dynasty. I can't afford such a serious courtesy. Get up quickly."

   In this era, men have five kneelings, that is, the masters and teachers of heaven and earth. These five kneelings are reasonable and reasonable, but Shangguan is not among these five, that is to say, even a ninth-rank petty official. As long as you have an official body, you can also not kneel when you meet a first-rank official.

   After all, in theory, everyone is a colleague, but the division of functions is different, and they are equal in personality.

   However, some flattering people bowed down and saluted when they saw Shangguan, and gradually formed an evil spirit in the court and the public. Many people knelt when they saw the official, and also kneeled when they saw the boss.

   A person like Zhou Youyi is a typical flatterer.

   After hearing Zhao Jia's words, Zhou Youyi climbed up from the ground, still not daring to stand upright, but hunched over in front of Zhao Jia, his expression extremely humble.

   "Master Xiang started at the end of Qingping, and now stands at the top of Qingyun. He is the most respected person in his life."

   "Master Xiang is a role model for my generation of scholars."

Although Zhao Jia has been a prime minister for more than a year, he has to deal with officials large and small on weekdays, but most of the officials he contacts are people with some identities. Zhou Youyi's flattery made Zhao Jia feel uncomfortable all over.

   He frowned, pointed to the chair opposite him, and said, "Yushi Zhou, I asked you to come here today because I have something to tell you, just sit down."

   Zhou Youyi nodded quickly: "Xiaguan obeys."

   He sat down in front of Zhao Jia tremblingly, sitting only half his ass, like a courtier facing a saint.

   After sitting down, he looked up at Zhao Jia with a smile on his face: "I don't know if the prime minister has summoned an official, what are your orders?"

   "I have something to talk to you about."

Zhao Jia looked at the Yushi in the palace who was only 7th Rank, but stirred up the situation in the capital, and said slowly, "Yushi Zhou has done a lot of things recently, which has shaken the government and the people, and even the Governor has mentioned you to me many times. , it's amazing."

   Zhou Youyi was overjoyed, and immediately restrained himself a little, forcing the smile on his face to hold back the smile on his face, and bowed his head to Zhao Jia and said, "Master Xiang has passed the award, and the lower official just did something... as a matter of course."

   "Does Zhou Yushi really think that what he does is what he should do?"

   Zhao Jia was expressionless.

   "How do you know that you didn't make the wrong bet and made the wrong move?"

   Zhou Youyi was stunned.

After a long time, he looked up at Zhao Jia in amazement, and said stammeringly: "Master Xiang, now that the world is going to change the dynasty, people in the capital can see it. People, there shouldn't be anything wrong with thinking about it..."

   "You also said that everyone in the capital can see that the dynasty is about to change, but why is it only you, the Censor of Zhou, who stands up to be such a successful person? There are so many dignitaries in Yonglefang, but your vision is not as good as that of Yushi Chou?"

   "If it's a sure-win bet, how could these people let you, someone with no background, sell this?"

Zhao Jia looked calm, and continued: "In addition to these dignitaries in the capital, there are many people from the southwest in the court now. They have also been officials in the capital for more than a year. These people are the same as the governor. My own people, they know more news than Zhou Yushi?"

   "So far, has a man from the southwest jumped out and echoed Zhou Yushi's half-sentence?"

   Zhou Youyi was dumbfounded by what Zhao Jia said.

   He froze in place for a long time before finally looking up at Zhao Jia, his voice stuttering.

   "Then... Mr. Xiang, what do you mean..."

Zhao Jia lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and said lightly: "Although you are very courageous, you are not too stupid. You have not misunderstood the situation. What you are doing now is not wrong, but the timing is wrong. It's inconvenient to say anything to you, but I can tell you the truth, if you continue to act like this, you will surely die!"

   "There are tens of thousands of people with the surname of Ji in the capital, and I don't know how many relatives of the Ji family. Zhou Yushi might as well think about how many of these people want you to die."

   "If the Governor didn't nod his head for a day, the Great Jin was still the Great Jin, and these people were still relatives of the royal family. They couldn't help the Great Governor, but it's not easy to kill you to vent their anger."

   Zhou Youyi's face instantly turned pale, he raised his head to look at Zhao Jia, and then fell to the ground with a plop, his voice trembling: "Xiang... Xiangye help!"

   "I will naturally save you, otherwise I won't call you to my house today."

Zhao Jia was a little short-sighted because he read too many books. At this moment, he narrowed his eyes and said softly, "Those of us who came out of the southwest also wanted to make the Great Governor ascend the throne as soon as possible, which happened to coincide with Zhou Yushi, so I That's why I called Yushi Zhou to the house, the purpose is to rescue Yushi Zhou."

   Zhou Youyi kept kowtowing: "Thank you for your life-saving grace!"

   "You stand up and speak."

   Zhao Jia smiled: "As long as you obey my orders, I can't guarantee anything else, the lives of your family can definitely be saved."

   "In the future, when the great governor will be upright, there will definitely be a place for you in the imperial court."

   Zhou Youyi got up from the ground again, his tone trembling.

   "Please instruct me..."

  …

  The two talked in the study for almost half an hour before Zhou Youyi wiped his sweat and walked out of Zhao Jia's study. Before leaving, he thanked Zhao Jia a thousand times.

   "come here."

   After Zhou Youyi was far away, Zhao Jia's calm voice came from the study of the Xiangfu.

   "Throw this chair out and burn it as firewood."

   "Rinse the ground with clean water as well."
