Chapter 372: The law-abiding Chen Siqing

After leaving the palace, Chen Ao hurriedly returned home. The other side of the house had already learned about Chen Ao's entry into the city, so it was not hasty. As soon as he entered the door, he took a bath, had meals, waited for Chen Ao to eat and drink, and sat under the snowy pavilion in his dry clothes, looking at the beautiful wives under the moonlight with comfort, feeling indescribable satisfaction.

I have a house and money, I have received a marquis and promoted to the post. My wife is surrounded by her and sat under the pavilion this night. Life is like this, what else can my husband ask for?

"Husband, why are you still standing there? Play the cards quickly!" Zhou Ruo reminded angrily.

"Oh, oh, play cards, play cards..." Chen Ao held a handful of leaves, poured it on his head like a basin of ice water, dripping all his thoughts, and immediately released a hundred thousand coins.

"Win!" Zhou Ruo was Chen Ao's next home. As soon as Chen Ao's cards were played, she was overjoyed to spread all the cards on the table.

"Huh..." Chen Ao said guiltily: "So you have been waiting for this hundred thousand coins? Alas, if I had known this, I wouldn't let you succeed if I had dismantled the card."

Zhou Ruo arched his eyes, his eyelashes trembled, and his smile was as gentle as a cat, which was suffocatingly beautiful, but his dark and deep eyes turned and said, "Husband, it's time to take off his clothes..."

"Really take off? It's not good to take off this. The weather is so cold, and it's inappropriate for the people to see." Chen Ao glanced around and saw a maid sweeping the snow with a broom in the distance. Her old face was red and she had only so many clothes on her body. Once she took off, she told him how to be a human being in the future?

"My wife..." Chen Ao smiled trepidly, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Husband, I am a dignified Marquis of Gaoyang and a minister of the Honglu Temple. I have a great influence. Take off my clothes in public. What's wrong with this? Why not do this? I'll go to your room to take it off and show you if it's good enough?"

Zhou Ruo burst into laughter and said, "I am willing to accept the loss of the bet. This is what you said, take it off quickly, take it off quickly."

Zhenzhen and Tang Moer were both smiling beside each other. Seeing Chen Ao praying, she hoped that they could say something fair to him. The two women immediately turned their faces away and pretended that they didn't see it.

"There are not all the wives, but they are not reliable." Chen Ao sighed in his heart, and he was very sad and angry to take off his clothes. The most annoying thing was originally to trick his three wives into playing the Ye Zi card together, and they wanted to take off their clothes. He thought they were not proficient. Chen Ao was still thinking in his heart, his wife could not teach her husband, come, come, come, come, come, my husband loves you well... Oh, no, it's the kind of husband who teaches you step by step. Unexpectedly, none of these three ladies are easy to take. Not only is Ye Zi card powerful, but they are also very good at doing things. He gave a look, Chen Ao immediately became distracted, and at a glance, Chen Ao's legs were all weak. Even the gambling king could only lose, and Chen Ao's little trick of making fraud could not be used.

"Okay, just take it off!" Chen Aotong was so proud that he just took off his clothes? What my buddy is best at is taking off people's clothes. What is the difference between taking off their own and taking off others' clothes?

Just as he was about to untie the jade belt around his waist, Zhenzhen said, "Okay, okay, Ruo'er is just joking with you. Do you really want to take off such a cold day?"

Tang Moer stopped when she saw the good news: "Yes, sister Ruoer punished him and told him to remember the lesson, if you get sick in such a cold day, wouldn't we have to take care of him?"

Zhou Ruo thought about it and looked at Chen Ao and said, "It's a bargain."

Chen Ao kept his chastity and looked at Zhenzhen gratefully, then sat still, and said dumbly: "It's not cheap, it's not cheap. Isn't my husband going to make money back later, I just want to see body art? My husband's majestic figure will make you see enough."

Zhou Ruo spat, but there was a little warmth in his eyes and said, "Husband, please go to the Honglu Temple to attend the meeting tomorrow? I've been in a hurry for two months, so I have to take a good rest."

Chen Ao held her hand and burst into tears: "I am willing to accept the loss of gambling and not take off my clothes in front of my wife. How can my husband sleep? No one can stand without trust. Your husband is a sincere gentleman. You must take off your clothes. Madam, we are back to the room now, okay?"

Zhou Ruo's pretty face turned red. He looked at Zhenzhen and Tang Moer at a glance and said, "What are you talking nonsense?"

Chen Ao was excited, otherwise how could he be so sympathetic? With a look, she knew that she had agreed, but she couldn't let go of her pride and immediately said, "This is not nonsense. Although your husband really wants to establish a chastity arch to show his noble character, since he lost, how can he cheat? Good, let's go."

Zhenzhen and Tang Moer laughed, Chen Ao pulled Zhou Ruo and ran away as if he was flying.

After a night of lingering, Chen Ao woke up and looked at Zhou Ruo, who was curled up in his arms like a kitten, and felt very satisfied. He touched her smooth body like silk. Chen Ao reluctantly left the bed, put on his clothes, and used a few bites of rice, and asked Liu Sheng to take a car and go to the hall.

If there is the largest yamen in Bianjing City, it is neither the powerful Ministry of Personnel, nor the Ministry of Revenue, which holds the world's money and grain, but the Honglu Temple in this inconspicuous Chunfang.

The entire Honglu Temple covers an area of ​​thousands of acres and occupies several streets. The doors and walls are deep and there are several times. There are countless sudoku courtyards inside, with luxurious decorations, carved beams and painted buildings, rockery and flowing water, and endless lofts and hiking.

It can be said without hesitation that in Bianjing City, there is nothing more luxurious than the imperial palace. Even Cai Jing and Yang Jian's mansion cannot be compared with it.

In fact, the reason is very simple, because there is an elegant name like Honglu here, but in fact it is the essence of the Song Dynasty's national-level foreign-related hotel, which is used to receive foreign guests. Moreover, not all foreign guests are welcomed. You still have to have an identity, such as if you are a national envoy, a vassal king, or a prince, then you are qualified to move in. In this case, in order to satisfy you and make you feel at home, you must also show the meticulous care of the Song Dynasty for you, so that you, a country bumpkin, can see the wealth of the Song Dynasty, and of course, the Honglu Temple cannot be shabby.

The temple minister was just a first-time visit, and the immediate boss was also a well-known figure inside and outside Bianjing. The Honglu Temple was naturally attentive to receive him. Chen Ao was a very responsible official. He waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite, and don't invite me to dinner. I hate the messiest thing the most. Take me to see everywhere immediately."

Officials of all sizes suddenly became angry. The boss hated dirty things. This was not a good sign. Look at the noble monk who looked handsome and righteous. Could it be that he was really a honest and dedicated gentleman?

I took Chen Ao around and arrived at a place called Junlai Pavilion. The scenery here was really great. The exterior courtyard was filled with lush and exotic flowers and plants. The furnishings were extremely luxurious. There were calligraphy and paintings and porcelain bottles. Chen Ao asked with his face, "It seems that no one has been here for a long time, right?"

The temple was an honest man named Xi Zhong, and he hurriedly said, "My wise eyes are like a torch. This Junlai Pavilion is the place where the brothers' kings live. No one has come to live for more than ten years."

Although the Honglu Temple is an entertaining agency, it also divides people into different levels. When treating envoys from various countries, they also divide the brotherly countries and the vassal states. The brotherly countries are Xixia and Liao countries. There are many vassal states, and there are a lot of dirty and messy countries. Envoys from big countries naturally live in big houses, and envoys from small countries have to feel wronged. In addition, envoys also have status, and only ministers have to feel wronged. But if a prince or even a vassal king comes, the room must be bright enough and sected enough.

This Junlai Pavilion has been built for many years. It was originally for the princes and princes of the great country to live in. It was a pity that no one came to live for a long time.

Chen Ao shook his head and said, "It's a pity that there is such a big house empty, but no one comes to live in it. Isn't this waste of money and food from the Song Dynasty? Humph, this is a lot of money for maintenance and repairs and cleaning. As officials of the Honglu Temple, how can you ruin this house like this?"

When everyone heard this, they were stunned. This was a rule that has been passed down since ancient times. Although there was no one in this house, what if someone really came? The court specially brought a cup of it from time to time. The temple minister suddenly scolded everyone with this, which was really unfair.

Chen Ao sighed and said, "In order to protect the loss of property from the court and save expenses, let me live in this attic in the future. You also know that sometimes when I am tired from office, I always have to find a place to take a break. Only by combining work and rest can I make another great contribution to the court, right?"

"..." Everyone looked at each other, their eyes were about to fall off, but they didn't dare to shake their heads. Facing the Minister of Revenue, they dared to touch each other. It would be better to be more relaxed. Shi Masashi Zhong said seriously: "No, adults are busy with everything, so they must not be exhausted because of this. Since Junlai Pavilion is empty, it's not impossible to bother adults occasionally to stay there."

Chen Ao sighed, his eyes were very deep, and he sighed and said, "I have done my best to save money. Living in such a big house is really a difficult task."

"Don't make things difficult, don't make things difficult... The officials also need to learn from the adults." Everyone laughed, laughing bitterly.

After wandering around, Chen Ao officially took office. The new official took office for three reasons. Chen Ao's first job focused on opening up the source. The increase in revenue and reduce expenditure. He had a long way to go. He had practiced this reduction. There was no reason not to lead the way. Foreign merchants heard the new temple ministers and came to take office one by one. Chen Ao still said the same thing, and he was spared when treating guests. I am not that kind of person, and I can't eat any feelings even if I have a meal or two. You should take a break.

So the merchants started giving gifts again, and Chen Ao got angry again. He took them back and took away all these glass bottles, pearls and jade.

I was stunned now. The merchants came here from all over the world, so naturally they understood the principle that only by having a way to do business. This adult was really hard to get started when he was at a banquet and didn't want gifts.
