Chapter 1193 Eunuch Qian Appears
In the early morning, the thin morning light shrouded the sky over Liuhe Town, as if sprinkled a layer of golden light on the town. The white-walled and green-tiled Jiangnan Town was covered with a layer of golden gauze, like a noble girl.
On the blue stone path at the entrance of Liuhe Town, Zhang Xiancheng, Yao Zhubo, and Li Dianshi stood at the front, looking forward to the distance. Behind them were a group of dismissed subordinates, holding various Welcome gift.
Today was the earliest time they got up, and they came to Zhenkou just before dawn.
They did this to welcome the distinguished guest invited by Zhang Xiancheng—Eunuch Qianxuqian.
The morning sun burst into thin air, and the eastern sky seemed to be on fire, a piece of red and then a piece of golden yellow slowly spread, and then turned into fish-belly white, and then Chaoyang showed her head like a shy girl in a long-awaited call.
The sun has risen.
Zhang Xiancheng, Yao Zhubo and others watched a complete sunrise at the town.
Not only that, they also watched the sun rise higher and higher from the morning sun, higher and higher, and brighter and brighter.
Until the sun rises three poles.
Liuhe Town has woken up early. Many people who entered and left the town saw Zhang Xiancheng and his party, and then couldn't help but linger on them a few more times. Are they waiting for someone? So grand? !
The sun is still rising, slowly approaching the center.
All the people who went out to work in the town came back. Seeing Zhang Xiancheng and the others still at the entrance of the town, they couldn't help but look sideways and click their tongues.
"Brother-in-law, what time is this? Why isn't Eunuch Qian here yet? Did you tell him this morning?"
Li Dianshi stood for a long time, his legs were numb, coupled with the hot sun, and the strange eyes of passers-by, he was impatient for a long time, and couldn't help complaining to Zhang Xiancheng beside him.
"That's right, it's almost noon, why isn't Eunuch Qian coming? Could it be that he forgot?!"
The subordinate officials couldn't bear it for a long time, and when they heard Li Dianshi's complaint, they couldn't help but echoed it.
Compared to the impatient Li Dianshi and others, Master Yao stood in place, waving his folding fan lightly, with a calm expression on his face.
"Hmph! I don't have that patience at all?! Still want to make friends with noble people?! At the beginning, Uncle Liu visited the thatched cottage three times, and then invited Zhuge Liang, the noble man who was hit, but now he just made you wait for a while, and you can't bear it anymore?! How to achieve great things? !"
Zhang Xiancheng snorted coldly, and glanced at everyone, especially paying attention to Li Dianshi.
"Yes, Master Zhang taught you the lesson."
A group of subordinate officials nodded again and again, cheering up again.
Everyone continued to be at the entrance of the town, looking forward to it.
The sun continued to rise, and it was only an hour away from noon. The sun in late autumn was very poisonous, and Zhang Xiancheng and others who were waiting in the town couldn't help but sweat profusely. Li Dianshi and others became old again, doubting and complaining. In fact, at this time, Zhang Xiancheng couldn't help being shaken by some doubts. He started to pace around in place with worry on his face. Eunuch Qian must have really forgotten, right? ! Or did you remember the wrong time? !
Just when Zhang Xiancheng and the others were about to give up, they saw a gorgeous sedan chair appearing in the field of vision.
This is a sedan chair carried by four people. The sedan chair is very gorgeous, and there are four guards with waist knives on both sides.
Seeing this sedan chair, Zhang Xiancheng's eyes lit up.
He knew this sedan chair. Eunuch Qian was trapped in the mountains. When he went to visit, Eunuch Qian rested in this sedan chair.
"Hurry up, cheer me up, Eunuch Qian is here. Eunuch Qian is sitting in the sedan chair coming across." Zhang Xiancheng said to Li Dianshi and others while arranging his clothes.
"Ah, Eunuch Qian is here."
"Eunuch Qian is finally here."
A group of people waited excitedly, and finally the wait was not in vain.
Far away, before the sedan chair approached, Zhang Xiancheng led Master Yao and a group of people to greet him.
"Eunuch Qian is here, and it's really a sin for us to welcome you from a distance." Zhang Xiancheng greeted him in front of the sedan chair, bowing his body and saying.
A group of subordinate officials followed suit, saying words of welcome, bowing like shrimps.
The four people carrying the sedan chair were dressed in cyan servant clothes, and all of them were young eunuchs with delicate features.
Putting down the sedan chair in front of Zhang Xiancheng and the others, a servant in front bent over and opened the sedan door while pinching the orchid fingers.
"Hehe, the miscellaneous family is just a small yellow family, how can it be a big boss."
A shrill laughter came from the sedan chair, and then a hand holding a snow-white embroidered handkerchief stretched out from the sedan chair. The servant in front graciously gave him a hand, and the owner of the sedan chair stepped down from it.
This is a young **** with delicate features and smiling eyes. He is about eighteen or nineteen years old. He is dressed in a purple inner servant. The material of the clothes is several grades higher than that of the little **** who carries the sedan chair.
This person is Eunuch Qianxuqian.
"I can afford it, I can afford it. Eunuch Qian served the sage, and he has worked hard. If Eunuch Qian can't afford it, who else can afford it." Zhang Xiancheng and others rushed forward to compliment him.
"Hehe, the miscellaneous family is nothing more than a slave. It is only because the ancestors cultivated blessings that they have the honor to share the worries of the Long Live Lord and serve the imperial concubine and empress." Eunuch Qian put the embroidered handkerchief to his lips, hehe smiled, and his voice was very thin.
Zhang Xiancheng and others hurriedly complimented again, and then delivered the gift.
Eunuch Qian glanced at the gift, um, a stack of silver tickets, a plate of silver ingots, and a plate of pearls. This gift is very expensive, and the smile on the corner of his mouth is even brighter, "Oh, look at what you are doing, Isn't this making miscellaneous people make mistakes?"
Eunuch Qian said words of refusal, looked at the gift, but his eyes were shining, and he didn't look away.
"Where and where, Eunuch Qian shared the worries of the Holy One and spared no effort to travel thousands of miles to the south of the Yangtze River to buy gold treasures and pearls. I can't wait, I have bathed in the emperor's favor for generations, and I also want to do my best for the Holy One. These are all our hearts. Please, father-in-law, help us." Zhang Xiancheng bowed and said.
"Yes, yes, Eunuch Qian, we also want to do our best, and please Eunuch Qian to make it happen." A group of subordinate officials spoke out one after another.
"Oh, it turned out to be like this. You didn't say it earlier, and the miscellaneous family almost misunderstood you. Since you also want to serve the Holy One, the miscellaneous family can't be unreasonable, which prevents you from being filial. Your kindness, the miscellaneous family Yue Zu accepted it on his behalf, and will share the worries and problems for the Holy One for you.”
Eunuch Qian pinched the orchid finger and held the embroidered handkerchief between his fingers, half covered his slightly curved lips, smiled and nodded, signaling to the following **** to accept all the gifts.
"Thank you, father-in-law, for making things happen." Zhang Xiancheng thanked repeatedly.
"Thank you, father-in-law, for making things happen." A group of subordinate officials followed suit.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, it's all about solving problems for the Holy One." Eunuch Qian waved his hands with a smile, his eyes bent into crescents.
