Chapter 153: Talented and Colored Li Qingzhao

"Go, go, I've never read the flower review list before. I really want to see it. Please, my cousin!"

Liu Mingjie acted coquettishly and dragged Jiang Chen, who was "unwilling" onto the carriage, and then rushed to the Huiji River outside Baifan Tower.

On the way, Jiang Chen looked at the feather mask that Liu Mingjie chose for him, and subconsciously thought of down jackets, wool sweaters and other things.

He said in his heart:

If the degreasing technology is studied, then wool is collected and duck down is made into a wool sweater, down jacket and bedding.

When the weather gets cold, warm items printed with door-keeping patterns are presented to the poor and orphans. Wouldn’t it not only do good deeds but also achieve good publicity effects?

In addition, cotton can also be used to make toilet paper, flintlock rifle essentials, fire cotton, banknotes and other good things after degreasing.

If the banknotes with watermark patterns are made and replaced by the original Jiaozi, it will not only be a great achievement, but also take over the power of "printing money" from Cai Jing;

In this way, the lack of counterfeit money among the people is also a blessing for the people.

...

As his thoughts flew, Jiang Chen came to a wide section of river outside Fanlou amid Liu Mingjie's dissatisfied muttering.

At this time, the flower review activity has not officially begun.

However, the river bank was already crowded with people, and the candlelight on the boat was like a meteor sliding in the Milky Way, beautiful and lively.

But what made Jiang Chen and Liu Mingjie depressed was that the good location on the river bank had already been occupied, and the pleasure boats in the river were booked in advance, and they could not even rent them at high prices.

What made Jiang Chen even more unhappy was that when he was asking about renting a pleasure boat one by one by the river, Cai Si and Cai Yan and others actually rode over in a pleasure boat.

He looked at Jiang Chen with a mocking face and said, "Oh, isn't this Lord Jiang Chenjiang? Why, you also want to join in the fun of this flower review list? Do we want to take you and Mrs. Zun for a ride?"

While talking, Cai Xie and others stared at Jiang Chen and Liu Mingjie and Liu Minghui behind him with no intention.

He directly misunderstood Liu Mingjie wearing a feather mask as Liu Yueniang.

"Mr. Cai is afraid that the officials will steal your limelight when they write poetry later. Do you want to block the officials' mouth?" Jiang Chen laughed mockingly, and only the fool would get on the boat of these people.

"snort!

You know how to win in poetry comparison! Despicable villain!"

Cai Xie glared at Jiang Chen depressedly.

I happened to catch a glimpse of Zhao Mingcheng, who was running from his hometown in Qingzhou to Bianjing for activities, walked towards the river with his wife and two maids.

However, his eyes did not stay on Zhao Mingcheng for even a second, but looked at Li Qingzhao, a tall and graceful woman wearing a veil beside Zhao Mingcheng.

I couldn't help but say with envy and jealousy: "What a good flower is put on the cow dung!"

Cai Xie also wanted to marry him after hearing about the talent and reputation of Li Ke's daughter Li Qingzhao. Unfortunately, Li Ke did not like him, and this matter has always made him feel uneasy.

I couldn't help but humiliate Zhao Mingcheng in front of Li Qingzhao, and directly took a few people to the shore and stopped Zhao Mingcheng, smiling and said:

"Zhao Mingcheng, I heard that you came to Beijing from your hometown in Qingzhou and sent gifts everywhere to drag your feelings. If you want to become an official again, why don't you come to ask for your official position?

Let's take your wife on the boat with me to drink a few drinks! As long as I am happy, I will be determined to say a few good words to you in front of Cai Xiang another day! It is absolutely no problem to help you ask for a single official position!"

While speaking, he looked at Li Qingzhao with malicious intentions. The implicit meaning in his words was self-evident.

Li Qingzhao frowned in shame and annoyance.

Zhao Mingcheng even said angrily: "Cai Xie, give me more respect! Although I am not an official in the court, I have heard of you pretending to be dead because of fighting poetry and being demoted twice.

You should worry more about your future, as your work will not require any effort!”

As Zhao Mingcheng finished speaking, everyone around him immediately looked at Cai Xie with mocking eyes. In everyone's heart, they had already regarded him as the most embarrassing top scholar since the Song Dynasty!

"You're looking for death!"

Cai Xie was so angry that she was seen by everyone, so she raised her hand and slapped her in the face.

"Ba"

"ah!"

Zhao Mingcheng was beaten so hard that he staggered. Li Qingzhao hurriedly stepped forward to support him. Then the couple glared at Cai Xie at the same time, "Why are you trying to hit someone casually?"

"Beat someone? Humph! I not only want to beat you, but also arrest you and ask you for punishment!

You, a person who was guilty of being taken away from office, not only entered the capital without authorization, but also dared to humiliate the imperial officials in public. The crime was assassinated and exiled, and your wife and daughter were sent to the Jiaofangsi!"

As Cai Xie said, he waved his hand and said, "Come on, take it down for me! Take it to the pleasure boat first, and then I will send them to the prison in person!"

After Cai Xie said that, he stared at Li Qingzhao with all his eyes, hoping to take the opportunity to get what he wanted.

When Zhao Mingcheng saw that Cai Xie was really moved, he panicked.

Li Qingzhao was also so scared that her face turned pale!

In a panic, a handsome young man stood in front of her with a warm smile on his face and said to Cai Xie, "Mr. Cai, the official can testify. Everything Zhao Mingcheng said is true and does not humiliate you!

Besides, the government has not convicted anyone, so you arrested people without authorization. Are you trying to know the mistakes and be demoted again and again?”

"you……"

Cai Xie's face turned purple with anger and glared at Jiang Chen and said, "Jiang Chen, let's go and see! Let's see how long you can be proud! Today you protect him Zhao Mingcheng, and he will see who will protect you and your wife! Humph!"

After saying that, Cai Xie looked up and down at Liu Mingjie, who was wearing a feather mask, and took the people back to the boat with a sinister smile.

He decided that as soon as the big thing was done after the autumn harvest, he would vent his anger.

Jiang Chen didn't know what Cai Xie was thinking. After frowned and shook his head, he looked at Li Qingzhao with concern and said, "Are you okay? Did you scare you just now?"

Um-

Li Qingzhao didn't know the deep historical plot of later men who treated her. She blushed and hid directly behind Zhao Mingcheng.

Zhao Mingcheng also had a strange expression and bowed to Jiang Chen and said enthusiastically: "You are Lord Jiang Chenjiang, right? Thank you just now for your help! I will never thank you for your kindness. I will give you a good reward in the future!"

The main purpose of his visit to Beijing this time was to curry favor with Jiang Chen and the powerful Yang Jian in order to restore his official position. Unfortunately, because his father Zhao Tingzhi was not very good, he had not found a good way to go to Beijing for several days.
