Chapter 18 Section 3 Director of Beijing Office

Liu Xiu didn't attend classes at Taixue, and just hit the bell by name. In the third year of Taixue, Liu Xiu simply moved out of Taixue and rented into Shangguanli in Chang'an City.Shangguanli is located in the most prime location in Chang'an City, and its neighbors are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries. However, the purpose of Liu Xiu's renting here is not to show off his wealth, but to receive the Nanyang Township Party. Every spring and autumn, local dignitaries of sufficient level in Nanyang will visit Chang'an in person to attend court invitations (the spring court meeting is called "chao" and the autumn court meeting is called "invite").In the territory of Nanyang, these people are all masters of the wind and rain, arrogant and arrogant, and they think they are irresistible, but when they arrive at Chang'an, the capital city where high-ranking officials gather, no one buys them at all. Low-pitched, uplifting.

When they were at a loss and helpless, Liu Xiu stepped forward, not only providing them with housing, but also running around enthusiastically, taking the initiative to help them break up relationships and find ways. If it was in Nanyang, these high-ranking officials would not have paid attention to Liu Xiu, a nameless junior, but in Chang'an, people are far from their hometowns, and it is not appropriate to put on airs. Meeting the rain, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, how can one be so kind.Moreover, Liu Xiu is familiar with Chang'an, he can be regarded as a half-headed snake, and the high-level officials can talk to each other. Grand Sima Yanyou and Sili Xiaowei Chen Chong, Liu Xiu are very familiar with each other. As for entertainment, drinking and sex with prostitutes, Liu Xiu Xiu can still arrange it properly.You said, where can I find such a good companion?

Once passed on to ten, ten to hundreds, it became a well-known secret in Nanyang official circles.The adults in Nanyang, whenever they came to Chang'an, went straight to Liu Xiu.In this way, Liu Xiu's residence in Shangguanli became the Nanyang Guild Hall, the Nanyang Beijing Office, and Liu Xiu became the nameless director of the Nanyang Beijing Office. When Liu Yan heard what Liu Xiu had done, he beat his chest and rejoiced: "I take care of customers, San Lang takes care of officials, they are better than me! Haha, better than me!" Liu Xiu, who is in the third year of Taixue, is no longer the freshman who was killed by someone but could only swallow his anger. At this time, Liu Xiu is no longer easy to be with.However, someone still provoked Liu Xiu.

There is no way, the water in Chang'an is too deep. Things have to start with Zhu You.Since Liu Xiu moved into Shangguanli, the business of selling medicines has been handed over to Zhu You. At first, Zhu You set up a stall in Taixue's market, but the market was only open for two days a month. Soon after, Zhu You The position was transferred to Dongshi, the most prosperous city in Chang'an.On this day, Zhu You was open for business as usual, and a group of vicious teenagers broke into the East Market to collect money from every stall.Zhu You refused to follow suit. He had already paid the city rent, so why should he pay the "protection fee" again!The villains felt fresh when they met such a short-sighted person, they overturned Zhu You's booth, and beat Zhu You fat until the blood flowed profusely, and he couldn't move.Zhu You shouted for help, but the mayor, the mayor and other officials who supervised the market all stood by with arms folded, and the merchants who believed in making money through harmony were even more afraid to come forward to persuade them.

Liu Xiu heard the news and hurried to Dongshi.The villains were about to clean up with Liu Xiu, but Liu Xiu kicked Zhu You fiercely, kicking and cursing at the same time. He had no eyes for house slaves, and dared to offend the nobles.After Liu Xiu finished kicking, he offered money to all the villains, and the compensation was too much.The villains saved face, took the money, and saw that Liu Xiu was so knowledgeable, so they let the two go. Liu Xiu called for a carriage, took Zhu You back to Taixue, and called in a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.Seeing that Zhu You was fine, Liu Xiu turned around and wanted to leave, but Zhu You grabbed her and said, "I know where you are going. Don't go, it's not worth it for me."

Liu Xiu smiled and said, "You can rest easy and heal your wounds." After speaking, she patted the long sword on her waist, "Some things should not be exposed randomly, such as thighs. Some things should be exposed when exposed, such as sharp edges." Liu Xiu is actually no stranger to the big and small powerhouses in Chang'an.He had already recognized that among the villains who had beaten Zhu You before, the leader was Jia Xing, the grandson of Jia Wan, the former tyrant of the East City.Back then, Jia Wan was hunted and killed by Jingzhao Yin Wangzun, but the Jia family's power is still there. Jia Wan's son, Jia Liang, succeeded his father and once again dominated the East City.

However, no matter what Jia's family he is, Bai Yu is a horse and a horse for Tang Jin.Liu Xiu returned to Dongshi with a sword in hand, ran into Jia Xing head-on, and turned him over with a sword.All the evil young men were shocked, screaming strangely, and they all came to fight Liu Xiu.When Liu Xiu was in Chongling in his hometown, he learned martial arts from the guests of his eldest brother Liu Yan. Now he was besieged by all the villains, but he was not afraid at all. He calmly cut down several people and took the road away. Can't give up. Liu Xiu fled to Chen Chong's mansion, and all the villains chased him to the door. Knowing that it was Sili Xiaowei's mansion, although he didn't dare to break into it, he refused to go there arrogantly. Come.

When Chen Chongwen heard that Liu Xiu had fled, he hurried to see him, and immediately asked, is anyone dead?Liu Xiudao: "I don't know yet." Chen Chong urgently ordered his servant to go out to inquire, and soon the servant reported that he was not dead but seriously injured. Chen Chong nodded, and said: "It's good if no one is dead, who is the injured?" Liu Xiu told Jia Xing's origin, and then told the story again.As an elder, it is Chen Chong's duty to take care of the younger generation, so he comforted Liu Xiu and said: "This matter is not serious, you can rest assured. If it is resolved by the government, it will be troublesome. The fight in Dongshi is under the jurisdiction of Jing Zhaoyin, but I It is inconvenient to come forward. Besides, now everyone knows that you have voted for me. If I insist on coming forward, I am afraid that I will not be able to escape the suspicion of selfishness. It is best not to disturb the government, and the two families reconcile in private. It is better to have a lot of friends in Chang'an. Ask him to come and discuss."

Chen Chongmi asked people to come to She to ask what happened, and said in a deep thought: "For the current plan, if you want to calm things down, you must hire someone."
