按(an)下后边(bian)。却说前厅(ting)宋御史(shi)先(xian)到了,西门庆(qing)陪他在卷棚内坐。宋御史深谢(xie)其炉鼎之(zhi)事:学生还当(dang)奉价(jia)。西门庆道:奉送(song)公祖,犹恐见却,岂敢云价。宋御史道:这等,何以克当?一面又作揖致谢。茶罢,因说起地方民(min)情风俗一节,西门(men)庆大略可否而答(da)之(zhi)。次问(wen)及有(you)司官员,西(xi)门庆(qing)道:卑(bei)职(zhi)只知本府胡正堂民望素(su)著,李知县吏事克(ke)勤(qin)。其余(yu)不知(zhi)其详,不(bu)敢(gan)妄说。宋御(yu)史问道:守备(bei)周秀曾与执事(shi)相(xiang)交,为人却也好不(bu)好?西门(men)庆道(dao):周总兵虽历练(lian)老成,还(hai)不如济州荆都监(jian),青年武举出身,才勇(yong)兼(jian)备(bei),公祖倒看他看。宋御史(shi)道:莫不(bu)是(shi)都监(jian)荆忠?执事(shi)何以相熟(shu)?西门庆道:他与我有一(yi)面之交,昨日递了(le)个手本与我,望乞公祖青盼一二。宋御史道:我也(ye)久闻他是(shi)个好将(jiang)官。又问其次者,西门(men)庆道:卑职还有妻兄吴铠,见任本衙(ya)右所正千户之职(zhi)。昨日(ri)委管修义仓,例该升指挥,亦望公(gong)祖(zu)提拔,实卑职之沾恩(en)惠(hui)也(ye)。宋(song)御(yu)史道(dao):既(ji)是(shi)令亲,到明(ming)日(ri)类(lei)本之时,不但(dan)加升本等(deng)职级,我还(hai)保举(ju)他见任(ren)管(guan)事。西(xi)门庆连忙(mang)作揖谢了,因把荆都监并吴(wu)大舅履历手本递(di)上。宋(song)御史看了,即(ji)令书吏(li)收执,分付:到(dao)明日(ri)类本之时(shi),呈行我看。那吏(li)典(dian)收下去了。西(xi)门(men)庆(qing)又(you)令(ling)左(zuo)右(you)悄悄(qiao)递了(le)三两银(yin)子与他(ta),不在(zai)话下。
