Chapter 169: Beggar Gang Leader Su Qigong
Sihailou is now like Su Mo's territory, and as soon as he received the news that everyone was going to feast here, it didn't take much effort to prepare everything. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although Hu Guangjian has repeatedly said that he should be invited to the banquet, who is Su Mo, who has experienced countless scenes in later generations, where would he make such a low-level mistake? The leader can sincerely say this, and if the people below do the same sincerely, it will be a whole second shortage. Although Lao Hu is not a leader, he can't stand others and is a celebrity. In this day and age, Baume & Mercier sometimes has more weight than leaders.
Therefore, in the end, it was Su Mo who grabbed the main position.
On the third floor of Sihai Building, a total of two seats were opened. Of course, Su Mo, as the master, has to sit in the first seat, and the upper seat is naturally Mao Ji, followed by Kong Hongxu, Xie Duo and Hu Guangjian. In addition to these people, those who sat in turn were Shen Song, the county magistrate of Wuqing County, Zhou Chun, the chief secretary of Wuqing County, and the three people of Zhang's hometown.
After all, this is a cultural meeting held in Wuqing County, and how can a banquet of this level be set aside from Shen Song, the commander of Wuqing County, who is the master? Since he is representing the county government, then even the chief secretary Zhou Chun is invited, which is the meaning of the question. If it weren't for the county Cheng Dai Yan's delay in arriving so far, he would have had a seat tonight.
Moreover, now that Su Mo's shocking painting is placed there, many things also require the vigorous cooperation of Wuqing County. It can be said that at this time, the Wuqing Cultural Association could no longer be regarded as a purely spontaneous meeting of the people, but had risen to an extremely important gathering of officials and governors. As a result, the Wuqing County Government must play its official functions, whether Shen Song wants it or not.
This is also where Shen Song feels depressed. From the beginning of this Wuqing Wenhui, he was passive step by step, one wrong step at a time, and became a laughing stock from beginning to end. Now not only can I no longer make a hindrance from it, but I also have to come to accompany the smiling face as a guest, this depressed day, Shen Daxian ordered not to talk about face, and he couldn't even find half of the lining.
Therefore, although he was smiling on his face at this moment, he was actually full of hatred in his heart, and his hand hidden under the table was clenched tightly, and his nails were about to dig into the flesh.
Compared with the depression of Shen Daxian Ling, the chief bookkeeper Zhou Chun was sincerely full of joy. He is just an eight-grade official, and he has ascended to the sky in one step, and when he can sit at the same table with a five-grade Hanlin such as Mao Ji, as well as a noble figure such as Yan Shenggong, Xie Duo, Hu Guangjian and other famous scholars and Confucians, this is simply not too happy.
That's why I've been smiling since I sat down, and I can't stop smiling at all. Seeing everyone laughing like a dog's tail flower, especially Su Mo, which made Shen Song, who was watching from the sidelines, even more angry, and wanted to strangle this embarrassing thing on the spot.
As for the last guest, the Zhang family's hometown advocated that the more he could sit at the table, one was because the organizer Zhang Wenmo was a member of the Zhang family, and Zhang Wenmo was extremely friendly with Su Mo, so as his uncle, even if he looked at Su Mo, he must have a seat;
Second, the reason is well known to everyone. Empress Zhang's clan, the first family of Wuqing, if you don't invite this, do you want to do it? Don't say anything stupid about Zhang Wenmo being expelled from the house by the old man, the Tao in it, which one of you doesn't know what's going on?
It was these two reasons, the old lady Zhang sat calmly, with a white beard curled up one by one, her face was full of spring breeze, Su Mo looked at it with contempt, and she didn't know how many middle fingers she raised in her heart to vent.
There were seven of them at this table. Everyone else sat at another table. There are Zhang Yue, Xu Guangzuo, Xu Pengju, Kong Wenshao, Zhang Wenmo, He Ying, and Wang Yu. The fat man casually and the little girl Luting also set up a seat, and sat there nervously, uncomfortable.
But fortunately, it was at this table, except for Kong Wenshao, who was a little surprised when he saw this at the beginning, the others were already surprised. Even Kong Wenshao saw that everyone was taking it for granted, and secretly reminded himself in his heart that he didn't dare to show a little difference to the two, and only secretly guessed the identities of the two, afraid that it was not as simple as it seemed.
In fact, really speaking, Zhang Yue, Xu Guangzuo and Xu Pengju, as the sons of the princes, should definitely sit in the first seat. Not to mention them, if Wang Yu's identity is really taken out, he is also qualified to sit at the first seat.
But Wang Mi came from a secret visit, and as a daughter, how could he leak it out? Naturally, he kept a low profile.
As for Zhang Yue and the others, since they have befriended Su Mo, they naturally take Su Mo as the leader. Not to mention that almost all the old guys at the first table really don't have any common language, just one Shen Song, who seems to be Su Mo's opponent, is here, and the brothers won't give half a smile. Wouldn't everyone be embarrassed to sit on it? Therefore, it was simply stated that the young people would sit at the same table and not pay attention to their status.
The young people at the table all had such and such intersections with Su Mo, and with the two living treasures of He Ying and Xu Pengju in it, they naturally talked happily.
And at the first table, there are Mao Ji, these great gods, and Hu Guangjian's mediation, no matter how Shen Song and Su Mo don't deal with it, naturally there will be no discordant situation.
Therefore, the two tables of banquets seem to be full of laughter and joy, and the guests and hosts are happy. A table of wine is eaten until the middle of the moon, and then it is considered to be happy.
Before leaving, Mao Ji earnestly instructed Shen Song to send more people to take care of the venue and not make any mistakes.
Shen Song vomited blood in his heart, but he could only respond on his face, solemnly asked the gentlemen to rest assured, and then left.
Mao Ji told Su Mo to rest earlier, don't forget to finish the painting tomorrow, and after Su Mo responded with a smile, he smoked away. Others such as Xie Duo, Kong family father and son, and Hu Guangjian also walked together.
The old master of Zhang patted Su Mo on the shoulder with deep meaning, and with the support of Zhang Yu and Zhang Wenmo, he also got into the car and left. At this point, only Su Mo and his party were left in front of the restaurant.
The crowd stood at the door of the shop, waiting for the men to bring the carriage to them. The person dressed as a junior turned around from behind, walked in front of Su Mo, quietly handed over a bag, and then bowed down.
Su Mo raised his eyebrows, opened the bag, and pulled out a wax pill from it. After crushing it, a note was revealed, and after a cursory glance, he took out a booklet from his arms, and after turning a few pages, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Zhang Yue next to him looked at it, only thought, leaned over and whispered, "What's the matter?"
Su Mo didn't speak, handed him the note, and gave him the booklet in his hand for a brief demonstration.
Zhang Yue's eyes were surprised, he learned to operate it, and when he finished reading it, he returned the booklet to Su Mo, the look of surprise on his face had disappeared, and it was replaced by a look of worry.
This booklet and the note are all the secret words that Su Mo and Sun Sihai set up before. In fact, to put it bluntly, the slip of paper is written in Arabic numerals, corresponding to the page number of the booklet, and then opposite a word on the corresponding page number, so as to convey the message.
At this time, Sun Sihai was not in Wuqing, and according to Su Mo's request, he went to the capital to expand. The information collected by Sihailou will be written in a password by someone and then transmitted to Su Mo. That guy was one of the people who sent the password.
This method is not worth mentioning in later generations, but it is unique at this time in the Ming Dynasty. As a martial artist, Zhang Yue naturally saw the value of this method at a glance, so he had such a surprised expression.
It's just that after reading the news, I can't care about surprise anymore. Without him, the news indicated that Jinyiwei, who was originally stationed in Wuqing to investigate the case, suddenly withdrew tonight. Since the commander made Mu Bin, all of them went cleanly, leaving no one behind.
And before that, there was news that someone had sent a scroll in. After inspection, I was eighty percent sure that the scroll was a poem written by Su Mo at the venue yesterday. It is impossible to determine which one it is.
The last piece of news was that although the person who delivered the scroll was a student he didn't know, it was actually the work of Li Zhaoxian's gang.
specially passed the scroll to Jinyiwei, and inside was a poem by Su Mo. And Jinyiwei came to Wuqing to investigate Sumo, and after receiving this scroll, Jinyiwei directly withdrew to the capital.
The clues are connected, and the implication is chilling. The Jinyi Guard has been here for many days, and has sent a large number of horsemen to visit around, but there has been no movement. It was as if the legendary Chasumer was completely out of nowhere.
But after receiving a scroll related to Su Mo today, he suddenly withdrew and withdrew. There are at least two messages that come with this.
First, Jin Yiwei investigated the case to no avail, and determined that Su Mo was fine, so he returned to Beijing to resume his life, if so, everything would be fine;
The second one is not so rosy. It must be that Jin Yiwei felt that this scroll was enough to settle Su Mo's case, so he completed the task and returned to Beijing.
And whether it is these two pieces of information or not, it will bring reputational damage to Su Mo. The first possibility, because there is no final announcement, gives people more speculation out of thin air, while the second possibility is that it is not necessary to say that it is a person who can guess what is going on.
However, Zhang Yue was not worried, he saw the so-called scroll for a moment, and guessed that it must be the song "Qinyuan Spring?? Snow" happened.
Like Li Zhaoxian, he was accustomed to witnessing the tricks of officialdom, and naturally thought of the four words "people". Especially Li Zhaoxian's son Li Dongyang, who is very relied on by Emperor Hongzhi, once Li Dongyang speaks from the side, it doesn't need to be serious, just guide it lightly, and what awaits Su Mo will be a storm.
That's what worries him.
Seeing his complexion, Su Mo smiled slightly, and reached out to pat him on the shoulder to show peace of mind. Then he raised his hand and stretched his waist, watched the carriage come by, and beckoned everyone home.
Zhang Yue saw that he seemed to be holding something, so he had to suppress the worry in his heart, lowered his head and secretly thought about keeping up.
Over there, Su Mo asked the fat man to go to the front of the imperial seat to sit with Shi Yue, and he also went to the wheel to sit.
There was only one carriage, and it was so lively that no one sat on it. But when I went back at this time, everyone brought wine, and my body was tired and weak, who didn't want to get in the car and sit?
Zhang Yue didn't care about what was on her mind, she was still walking. Xu Guangzuo followed him along. Xu Pengju saw Su Mo climb into the car, and immediately followed suit.
It stands to reason that this is just the right time for the three women to go to the carriage and sit in it. But don't forget, among the three women, there is also a strange character: He Ying and He Woman.
As a woman, where is she willing to sit quietly and honestly in the carriage? Sitting on the wheel and standing in the wind can show the style of a chivalrous person. But now that Su Mo and Xu Pengju have taken the position first, He Nuxia was immediately unhappy.
"Squint, are you a scholar? Don't you know the difference between men and women? I and Sister Mi'er are in the car, how dare you stinky men sit in front of us? It's so shameless! Go down!"
Su Mo squinted at her, pouting too much to pay attention. Xu Pengju was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and immediately retorted: "Eighth woman, you are also a woman, although you are known as a princess, Princess Taiping should be outside." ”
This is too poisonous, and he Yingqi will jump up and do it. As soon as the words came out, he jumped out of the car and ran, leaving He Ying with nowhere to vent, gritting his teeth for a long time, and suddenly turned to Su Mo: "It's all taught by you bastard, what princess is ugly to death! And what does that bastard mean......? I am the eighth woman, you ....... you are ...... It's the Seventh Prince! Yes, it's the Seventh Prince!
Su Mo almost didn't spray on the spot when he heard it. Seventh Prince? Well, it's neat to say that the eighth woman is also neat. It's just that this name sounds so familiar? It's a shame that his surname is Su and not Hong, otherwise he would have become the leader of the beggar gang?
Just thinking about laughing and mocking He Ying, suddenly a horse came in front of him, and after seeing him from afar, he hurriedly leaned over, hugged his fists and said: "Son, there is a little beggar at home, I must see you in person, and say that it is a major matter related to life." Steward Chu sent a small one to report to the son, and asked the son to return quickly. ”
Oh my god, little beggar? What kind of mouth is this? It's too dark. Su Mo blinked, chirped, and immediately became chaotic.
