Chapter 83 Cao Gaoshang (asking for first order)
After discussing the rent issue with Hai Rui, Zhu Zaijing turned around and said to Meng Chong who was chasing him: "Is Liu Yishou's yard just like that?" Is it nearby? You can ask him to bring the key and rent it to Mr. Hai. The rental price will be whatever it is. Don’t make it difficult for Mr. Hai."
Meng Chong replied quickly. : "Yes, sir, wait a moment, I will arrange for someone to go there right away."
Hai Rui, who was standing aside, heard Zhu Zaijing's words and bowed to Zhu Zaijing in emotion, "Thank you very much. Young Master Gaoyi helps.”
Meng Chong quickly sent someone to Dongshi to find Liu Yishou to get the key to Liu Yishou’s small courtyard in Liulichang Hutong.
At this moment, Zhu Zaijing also invited warmly: "Mr. Hai, the weather is freezing at the moment. I have also asked my servants to get the key to the small courtyard here. It will take some time to come and go. Why don't we find a place to have tea?" Warm yourself up?”
Hai Rui looked at Zhu Zaijing who was so enthusiastic and sincere, and replied: “Thank you very much, sir, but please don’t go to places that are too extravagant, otherwise I will pay for it. "I can't afford the tea fee."
After hearing what Hai Rui said, Zhu Zaijing felt really inexplicable. If an ordinary person was invited like this three times, let alone being embarrassed to refuse, even the money would be lost. Sorry to mention it.
As a result, Hai Rui has always stuck to his true intentions. Even if he accepted Zhu Zaijing's kindness, he was not willing to take advantage of Zhu Zaijing.
Even if you look for 5,000 years, you won't be able to find many people like this.
Zhu Zaijing said: "Mr. Hai, don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. Later I will take you to sit with an elder at his home. My elder is also a man of upright character. There will definitely be no such thing in his family." A luxury thing."
Hai Rui couldn't help but sigh in relief, "In that case, thank you so much, Master."
He was also happy to see that Hai Rui agreed to the invitation. He invited Hai Rui to where his carriage was parked.
At the same time, Zhu Zaijing ordered Meng Chong: "Go and inform Mr. Gao that I will bring a friend to visit today and ask him to warm the tea and wait."
After Meng Chong heard Zhu Zaijing's instructions, he immediately arranged for people to go to Gao Gong's residence in Hanlin Hutong near the Imperial College in the east of the city without stopping.
After seeing Zhu Zaijing's carriage, Hai Rui couldn't help but hesitate. He really didn't know how he could be treated so politely by this noble young master.
This carriage looked like a carriage that could only be ridden by wealthy or wealthy families, so when Zhu Zaijing invited Hai Rui to get on the carriage, Hai Rui hesitated.
Hai Rui said: "I accept the kindness of the young master, but I am vulgar and have worn the clothes for a long time. They already smell sour and unpleasant. I can no longer soil the young master's carriage."
< br>When Zhu Zaijing saw that Hai Rui still refused to get on his carriage, he immediately stopped and said, "Since Mr. Hai is unwilling to get on the carriage, then I can just walk with him."
Then Zhu Zaijing ordered Meng Chong beside him: "Go get the heater and cloak from the carriage and put it on Mr. Hai. It's so cold that when we reach the east of the city, we will probably freeze to death." ”
When Hai Rui heard what Zhu Zaijing said, he quickly refused and said: "How can this be done? How dare I use the young master's things?"
Zhu Zaijing said: "I don't want to sit down now. We are not willing to put on the cloak underneath the carriage to keep out the cold. What if we get to the east of the city and freeze my husband? Otherwise, let him choose. Either we get in the carriage and go to the east of the city, or you can wear it. We walked to the east of the city with my cloak.”
Hai Rui and Zhu Zaijing’s sincere eyes, and listening to Zhu Zaijing’s true words that were not mixed with any other utilitarianism, I was also moved for a moment. Nothing more can be added.
Hai Rui bowed to Zhu Zaijing and said, "In that case, I would like to thank you sir. I am willing to ride with you."
Zhu Zaijing smiled and said: "That's very good! Sir Get in the car quickly.”
Zhu Zaijing invited Hai Rui to get on his carriage. After getting on the carriage, looking at the luxurious decoration inside the carriage, Hai Rui really couldn't imagine that he would have such an adventure. He really didn't know what the noble young man in front of him saw in him. Did he hear about my "Zhili Policy"?
But looking at Zhu Zaijing at such a young age, he didn't seem to be interested in political management. Just now, Hai Rui still vaguely remembered that Zhu Zaijing was spending a lot of money in Liulichang Hutong. The generosity!
How could such a wealthy and generous young man really care about the governance of ordinary people thousands of miles away?
So at this moment, Hai Rui really couldn't figure out what attracted him to this rich young man in front of him.
But since you have already boarded someone else's horse, you should be content with it as soon as you come. If he has other bad thoughts in the future, just say no.
Anyway, just do it with peace of mind!
After the two of them sat down in the carriage, Hai Rui looked at Zhu Zaijing again. He asked curiously: "Why is the young master so friendly to me? I thought about it, I am just an intruder. He is a poor man who is rushing to take the exam in Beijing and has few relatives and friends in the capital. Is it really hard for me to figure out the reason why the young master is so righteous?”
Zhu Zaijing said with a smile: “Mr. Mr. Hai has no ill intentions at all. I just saw that my husband wanted to live in the west of the city to take the exam, and I admired his noble sentiments, so I treated him with such courtesy."
But Zhu Zaijing's words are not the same. Before dispelling Hai Rui's doubts, Hai Rui asked again: "How did the young master know my name?"
Hearing Hai Rui's question, Zhu Zaijing naturally couldn't say that he was a time traveler and he knew your name a long time ago.
So Zhu Zaijing couldn't help but laugh at this time and said, "Didn't you tell me your name as sir?"
Hai Rui heard what Zhu Zaijing said. I can't help but wonder, is this really the case?
Just when Hai Rui was a little confused by the ins and outs of the question, the carriage finally wandered to Hanlin Alley near the Imperial College and stopped.
“Master, here we are.”
Meng Chong reminded him outside.
After Zhu Zaijing heard Meng Chong's voice, he quickly said to Hai Rui: "Mr. Hai, we are here. Let's get off the carriage first."
Zhu Zaijing got there first. He leaned out from the carriage, then stepped down the wooden ladder placed next to the carriage.
“Knock on the door.”
After hearing Zhu Zaijing’s instructions, Meng Chong quickly went to the small courtyard of the residence where Gao Gong was and knocked on the door knocker a few times.
"Mr. Gao, my young master has come to see you."
Meng Chong's voice reached the small courtyard. At this moment, Gao Gong, who was warming himself by a charcoal fire and reading a book, heard the movement outside and also He quickly got up and pulled up a thick cotton robe and walked out.
“Who is it?”
Meng Chong replied: “Mr. Gao, it’s me. My young master came to have tea and chat with Mr. Gao.”
Gao Gong was stunned when he heard the voice. Who knows, he couldn't help but move his hands a little faster. He quickly buttoned up his coat, reached the door of the small courtyard, and opened the door bolt.
Just when Gao Gong was about to salute Zhu Zaijing, Zhu Zaijing bowed first and said, "Uncle Gao, my nephew brought a friend to bother me today. Don't be offended."
