Chapter 1260 Luxurious hospitality

Wei Zheng turned around and glared, and a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue lowered their heads.

Seeing this situation, Shangguan Yi felt a little embarrassed for a moment, and gave Li Yi's house a look.

Upon receiving the look, Li Yifu said, "Everyone, everyone wants to eat, and it is not that our Jingyang County Government does not give food to you, so as not to say that we don't like you, just think you are helping me, how about having a meal?"

Everyone was already hungry, and a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue were looking at Wei Zheng.

Seeing Wei Zheng sitting down to eat calmly, everyone sat down and ate voraciously.

Li Yifu took a pot of wine and poured wine for everyone.

After drinking and eating, it was getting late.

The government offices under the candlelight also talk and laugh.

Li Yifu is very good at getting along with people.

Shangguan Yi looked at Li Yifu and these people he had never met before and could talk and laugh, from family matters to trivial matters in the court, and could say a few words, and make jokes just right.

Looking at Duan Lun who was eating quietly, Shangguan Yi whispered to him: "Why did Li Zheng like such a person to do his job?"

Duan Lun ate the chicken legs in his hand and looked at Shangguan Yi and a group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue and laughed, and whispered: "The Li Yi Mansion is so handsome that he can't see any advantages. He only shows kindness and speaks well all day long."

Shangguan Yi shook his head, "I don't think Li Zheng's vision is so bad. As far as I know, Li Yi Mansion was the first to follow Li Zheng. In the first period of time in Jingyang, he followed Li Zheng to dispatch many things to Jingyang."

Duan Lun frowned and looked at Li Yifu, and continued to bury his head in eating his own meal.

Shangguan Yi whispered: "You should not behave like a person. Li Yifu looks unrestrained on the surface and even likes to show off. However, being able to get along with others is also his ability. If he is placed in a suitable position, he will have a great effect."

Duan Lun swallowed the food in his mouth, "Is it really effective?"

Shangguan Yi whispered: "When we were young, we were always concerned about right and wrong, but there are so many things in this world. Sometimes is right and wrong really important?

What makes people choose is the benefits of it.”

I have personally experienced the collapse of the five surnames and know the sinister hearts of people.

Duan Lun also thought that he was old and thought about Shangguan Yi's words carefully.

When I was a child, do I think it is really important to realize right or wrong only after I grow up?

Those who gain power are often those who are versatile.

And Li Yifu is such a person.

Shangguan Yi whispered: "Xu Jingzong also serves Li Zheng, but Xu Jingzong doesn't interact with us on weekdays. He left in a hurry after he came. I don't know Xu Jingzong, but Li Yi's mansion has always been in Jingyang. I think Li Yi's mansion will definitely be a great help to Li Zheng in the future."

Duan Lun put down the bowl and chopsticks and said, "How can I see it?"

Shangguan Yi took a sip of wine and said, "I heard from His Highness the King of Wei in the academy that the Ministry of Rites chaired by the Prince of Hejian has been observing some people, as if they were to establish another government office above the Ministry of Rites."

Duan Lun said in surprise: "Are you building a government office?"

Shangguan Yi nodded and said, "The Tang Dynasty has become more and more exchanges between the Tang Dynasty and surrounding countries, and many problems have also arisen, such as conflicts between military and horses, conflicts between transactions, and even some border issues. These problems need to be dealt with by someone."

Duan Lun said: "Aren't these things all the matters of the Secretariat?"

Shangguan Yi shook his head and said, "There is a saying in our Jingyang Academy that we have specialties in our profession. If we really want to have such a government office, there must be a seat in Li Yi's mansion in this government office."

Duan Lun observed Li Yifu's words and deeds, and then thought about Shangguan Yi's words and sighed: "You should not behave like a person."

Shangguan Yi nodded and said, "Yes."

Thinking of this, Duan Lun looked at Shangguan Yi with a tangled expression, "Then what ability do you think Li Zheng is interested in me?"

Shangguan Yi smiled helplessly, "How do I know?"

After the supper, Li Yifu took everyone to the resting place.

The place where officials of the Ministry of Revenue rest is in the Jingyang residential area, where dozens of empty houses are still there, and people often clean these houses on weekdays.

Li Yifu said to Wei Zheng and officials from the Ministry of Revenue: "You can live here these days."

A group of officials from the Ministry of Revenue looked at the house in front of them.

The house is not very big, but the room is full of internal organs, and there is even a very fashionable toilet in Chang'an.

This thing is not available to ordinary families, and it is said that only powerful families have it.

I didn't expect that it could be used in Jingyang, and it was available in every room.

Li Yifu stood aside and said, "This place was originally used to entertain our guests from Jingyang. The room was very clean and there were people cleaning every day. You can rest here and be busy tomorrow."

Wei Zheng walked into a room, which was only one floor, and when he walked into it, he felt a chill that was coming to his face.

There was a large cube of ice in the room.

It was really shocking, and there were all kinds of fruits on the ice.

Wei Zheng shook his head and sighed, "What a luxury."

Just as I was about to say a few more words, someone had already picked up the grapes on the ice and started eating them.

Wei Zheng looked back and saw that Li Yi's mansion had left.

The so-called short hand and short mouth.

Wei Zhengben wanted to persuade these officials from the Ministry of Revenue to eat.

Shaking his head and sighed, Wei Zheng walked into the room to rest.

Early the next morning, officials from the Ministry of Revenue inspected the land like yesterday.

But these officials of the Ministry of Revenue were scattered faster than yesterday, and they started to whisper.

Could it be that Li Zheng wants to use delicious food and drink to corrupt these loyal and upright ministers?

Looking around, Wei Zheng found that everyone was already in love with Jingyang at this moment. If they proposed anything at this time, it would cause dissatisfaction among everyone.

After thinking for a while, Wei Zheng came to the government office and said to Shangguan Yi: "In fact, our food and accommodation are not necessary to be so good."

Shangguan Yi said: "In fact, this was arranged by the Chang'an Order. Whether Duke Zheng brought people from the Ministry of Revenue to check the land or others came to check other matters, we all treated everyone in the form of guests."

Wei Zheng said: "Isn't it a bit too much?"

Shangguan Yi said: "Where are the places, we eat and use them on weekdays."

Wei Zheng has been an honest official for most of his life, so he has eaten so much wine and meat.

Shangguan Yi said again: "If Duke Zheng feels it is not suitable, we can adjust the meals as much as possible."

Wei Zheng turned around and looked at the busy officials of the Ministry of Revenue, waved his sleeves and said, "No need."

Shangguan Yi also smiled and said, "Duke Zheng laughed."
