Chapter 59.Two groups of people
He did not underestimate Li Xianyuan in the slightest because of his age. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as Li Xianyuan's mind turned, he knew the reason why he had come all the way from Xinjing to Wuhou City.
What else can you do but win yourself over.
The man saw that Li Xianyuan understood, and couldn't help but admire: "It is worthy of Master Li, who is very smart." It was under the order of the crown prince that he came to woo Lord Li. ”
Li Xianyuan thought that he would be tactful, but he didn't expect it to be so straightforward.
Li Xianyuan didn't want to get involved in such a thing as the prince earning the throne, so he said: "Scholars should focus on reading. As for the things above the court......"
The man in gray spoke extremely quickly and gushed endlessly: "Lord Li, you and I celebrities don't talk darkly. The current emperor is very old, and within a few years he will abdicate and make the crown prince emperor. Nowadays, all the powerful officials in Xinjing cannot be left alone. You're so talented and so accomplished at such an age. If my lord ascends the throne, it will be a university scholar, and it is not impossible to be a prince and a prince even if he is the third prince of the dynasty. Your current identity as the Marquis of Guannei was also won by the prince in the court. ”
In a word, there is a temptation and coercion. There are many capable people under the prince, such as this gray-clothed lobbyist. In other words, when others heard these remarks, they must be sincerely frightened and grateful to Dade for joining the prince's faction.
But Li Xianyuan is not someone else, so he is not so easy to be moved.
What's more, Li Xianyuan didn't attach much importance to power, and Guan Neihou was also forcibly given to him by Xinjing's gang. Even if he takes back his status as a marquis at this time, it will not make him feel a trace of remorse.
Li Xianyuan's face was flat, and he arched his hand: "Thank you for your kindness to the prince for me." It's just that I'm in Wuhou County and have no intention of going to Xinjing. ”
Li Xianyuan didn't say it directly, but he made it clear. He didn't want to get involved in the struggle between the two factions of the crown prince and the second prince.
Wang Meng arched his hand: "The twisted melon is not sweet, since Master Li is unwilling, he will not force it." However, the prince is thirsty for talent, and if you are willing, you will be a guest. ”
This kind of speech is decisive, and it is easy to win favor without dragging the mud and water.
For Wang Meng, although this trip did not attract Li Xianyuan, he also found out a little news. At this time, Li Xianyuan could not be co-opted. Since he is not interested in the prince's family, he naturally won't pay too much attention to the second prince's side.
As long as it's not an enemy, it's all easy to say.
Wang Meng said again: "I have to rush to Beijing to inform His Royal Highness the Prince, so I won't bother here and leave." ”
Then he left in a hurry. And from the time he came in to talk to the time he left, it was only half a pillar of incense.
Li Xianyuan walked to the front of the window, and the bustling street below, Wang Meng got into a carriage and drove away slowly.
Li Xianyuan's eyes followed the carriage movement, thinking that once the prince sent a lobbyist, the second prince's side would not be far away. It is even very likely that he has already come to Wuhou County, hiding in the shadows to observe who Li Xianyuan is approaching.
……
"Childe, the man in the carriage looked a little familiar...... "The carriage drove by, the street. A young man on the side of the street turned to look at the carriage heading away.
The young man was dressed in a blue shirt and a long sword, with a well-defined face and sharp sword eyebrows.
"Isn't it familiar? Wang Meng, the retainer of the eldest brother's family, who can speak well. ”
A gentle and elegant young man on the side said with a smile. The young man was dressed in a light green brocade robe, wearing a gold silk bag around his waist, holding a folding fan and shaking it gently, with an extraordinary bearing.
"It's him! It must be the same purpose as us!" The young man with the sword was furious. "I just don't know if Li Xianyuan has been co-opted. ”
"Don't worry, don't worry. The young man Wen Run stopped him, shook his head and said: I am fortunate to have lost my life. If you are really co-opted by the eldest brother, you can't force it. ”
The sword-wielding young man listened to the former and was no longer impulsive. Wen Yan said viciously: "Then snatch him back!"
"So you don't have to read more. Wen Runqing closed the folding fan and couldn't help but tap his forehead.
"What is the point of dancing with knives and guns all day long? He can easily betray my eldest brother, and he will easily betray me in the future. Let's wait and see what happens. It just so happens that I'm hungry, let's go to the front inn to get something to eat. ”
"There...... It seems to be where Li Xianyuan lives. It's really strange that a Liupinhou actually lives in an inn. With his identity, many businessmen and gentry rushed to deliver the house. ”
Wen Run Gongzi chuckled: "So this person is not an ordinary person." Otherwise, I wouldn't have come in person. ”
The two lifted the curtain and entered the inn, and the noise and heat wave were even more noisy than outside. The aroma of wine and coriander is permeated.
"Wang ...... Childe, it's noisy down there, let's go up to the second floor. The sword-wielding young man said.
Xiao Er also greeted him at this time, and when he heard this, he took the two of them to the second floor.
The second floor was quieter, with a few empty tables. The two of them walked to an unmanned table by the window and were about to sit down.
Xiao Er looked embarrassed at this time: "Two guest officers, here...... There are already people. ”
"Someone?" The sword-wielding young man glanced left and right curiously, and said, "You little two, aren't you playing tricks on us." ”
Xiao Er hurriedly explained: "The two of them are not like the local, and they are not secretive. There was a lord who came down to eat at this hour of the day, and he always chose this place. As we come and go, we reserve this place in advance, and those who come to eat regularly know about it. ”
Xiao Er's tone was a little proud. Come to think of it, the entire big business can't find a few inns with six-grade officials staying.
"Oh, it's a bit interesting that the dignified merchant Guan Neihou actually lives in an inn. Wen Run Young Man knew this, but still asked.
"As for the seats...... Just let it go to that 'Lord Li'. ”
"Thank you, two sons. Xiao Er smiled. This gentle young man is not an ordinary person at first glance, and he doesn't want to offend the other party too much. Busy led the two to an empty table not far from their previous seats.
Xiao Er took off his shoulder towel to wipe the table, while the two sat on the bench opposite each other. The warm young man had his back to the stairs.
The young man Wen Run turned his head sideways and asked Xiao Er: "I have some interest in this 'Lord Li', I wonder if Xiao Er can say more?"
He was polite, and Xiao Er hurriedly said: "The guest officer is polite." It doesn't hurt to talk about it, many diners have come to inquire about Lord Li. ”
Xiao Er put the towel on his shoulder, thought for a while, and said, "This Lord Li...... The personality is very cold.,But it's cold on the outside and hot on the inside.,Treat people very well.。 I'm polite to me. It's about the same as you. As for why you asked me why Lord Li stayed in the guest house...... Hey, I'm a person, how do you know this. ”
Consciously talking a little too much, Xiao Er laughed a few times and stopped, and then asked, "What do you want to come, guest officer?" ”
The young man Wen Run first looked at the young man with the sword, and the latter hurriedly said, "I'm casual." ”
He nodded, unfolded the folding fan lightly, and said to Xiao Er, who was bowing to the side, "Let's have a pot of tea first, and then I can order any side dishes." ”
"Okay, wait a minute, two guest officers. Xiao Er nodded and hurriedly ran to the stairs.
Wen Run was about to say something, and then he heard Xiao Er's surprise shout behind him: "Yo Lord Li, you are down, you want to eat something." ”
"It's still the same as before, it's troublesome. A polite voice came faintly.
