Ouyang Jie is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he regained his calm in a moment, his brain was spinning rapidly, and every word of what Jiao Wei said fell into his ears.

At this moment, he was clearer than ever. The moment he got into the carriage, he knew that Jiao Wei's appearance was not accidental.

Yang Ting has been here for five days, and he hasn't gone out for five days, that is to say, Jiao Wei has been waiting for five days in an inconspicuous place outside the Gao Mansion.

He and Jiao Wei are only three sides of the relationship.

Jiao Wei mentioned that "I want to push this errand to my eldest aunt", the eldest aunt in Jiao Wei's mouth will never be his own son-in-law, but Luo Shao's son-in-law.

Qin Jue!

Just now, he thought that Jiao Wei's appearance was related to Luo Shao, but it turned out that he guessed wrong, and it turned out to be Luo Shao's son-in-law Qin Jue who asked Jiao Wei to come to him!

Qin Jue......

Ouyang Jie had mixed feelings in his heart. He had never met Qin Jue, and he had never thought of having anything to do with Qin Jue.

He admitted that he had deliberately befriended Jiao Wei, and that he was willing to take refuge in Luo Shao if he could still choose the proprietor.

From the news Ouyang Jie heard, Luo Shao was a little stubborn, but he was a humble gentleman, whether he was a parent official or in the Qing Officials Division, although his political performance was mediocre, but his popularity was excellent, coupled with his solid family background, he didn't have to bend his waist for five buckets of rice, so there were no rumors of greed for ink, and people who dealt with him said that he was a pure person.

Luo Shao has a good relationship with Huo Ying, and after he entered Beijing, he was the official of the Ministry of Officials, which was the fattest child below the fourth grade, and it was also the easiest to rise to the top. Ke Luo Shao left the Sixth Ministry as soon as his term of office expired, and with his background as Huo Ying's student and Zhang Jin's son-in-law, he could continue to stay in the Ministry of Officials, but he went to Guozijian.

Therefore, Ouyang Jie gave Luo Shao four words "self-knowledge".

Indeed, Luo Shao is a self-aware person, he does not have the hypocrisy and sharpness of a politician, he is not suitable to be a knife in Huo Ying's hands, and his transfer from the Ministry of Officials to Guozijian is a sober move.

Sober, honest, and self-aware.

If there is any shortcoming in Luo Shao, it is that he has no ambition.

This is the reason why Ouyang Jie is willing to choose Luo Shao.

But now, Jiao Wei told him that the person who was interested in him was Qin Jue.

The most disobedient descendant of the Qin family, when he was young, he fought against his uncle who was the patriarch, and he was amazed by his literary brilliance before he tied his hair, and he killed King Ning at the age of nineteen, made immortal achievements, and the year of the crown hand-picked Tanhua, and then the horse market case, the river flood case, and the Wang Huisheng case in recent years, through his hands, nearly 100 officials of all sizes fell off the horse, and now, Wang Chengqiu also died in his hands.

In Jiangnan in Sichuan, there are a lot of deeds about Qin Jue, and they are also compiled into commentaries, and it is often heard in the teahouse restaurant that Yang Shanzong has a relationship with Qin Mu, so he also sent someone to the capital to inquire about the news, and when the news came, Yang Shanzong sneered: "The Qin family has a Nezha reincarnation, whether it is a blessing or a curse, wait and see." ”

Young and flying, ruthless, ambitious, and unscrupulous in order to achieve the goal, these traits of Qin Jue reminded Ouyang Jie of a person, who is Zhao Ji today.

Of course, it was Zhao Ji in his youth, not the current Zhao Ji who was unscrupulous for the sake of the dragon heir, and even had no intention of going to politics.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Jie only felt a layer of cold sweat on his back, Qin Jue wanted to find him?

He smiled faintly and said, "Brother Jiao, I'll invite you to the Suzhou Hall another day and let Xiao Fengxian sing a few songs for you alone." ”

Jiao Wei laughed, but his eyes darkened, he had already said that it was an errand given by Qin Jue, but Ouyang Jie did not accept it.

Jiao Wei restrained his smile and asked solemnly: "Brother Ouyang, forgive me for being reckless and presumptuous, do you know why those two palanquin drivers wanted to arrest you?"

Ouyang Jie smiled slightly: "Maybe it's because my outfit is worth a few taels of silver, robbing money." ”

Jiao Wei nodded and said, "Alas, now that the war is endless, even the capital is not peaceful, Brother Ouyang must bring a few more people next time he goes out." ”

Ouyang Jie said: "Like Brother Jiao?"

Jiao Wei laughed: "My aunt once said that martial artists often ridicule literati for being soft bones and afraid of death, but there is no shortage of generous literati in the history books, which shows that literati are not afraid of death, but to see whether death is worth it and whether they can leave their names in history." The death of a literati must have integrity and backbone, and if you can't do it, then you must also know whether you are worth dying. As for me, I have lived a lot of comfortable life, but I am more and more afraid of death, I am afraid that I will not be able to hold my grandson after I die, and I am afraid that I will never be able to return to my hometown to add soil to my father's grave after I die, so I am afraid of death. ”

Ouyang Jie didn't speak, looking at the scenery outside the street, stunned.

The carriage stopped in front of the Suzhou Guild Hall, Jiao Wei brushed his clothes, and said to Ouyang Jie: "Brother Ouyang, go in and sit?"

The Suzhou Guild Hall has to book a table in advance, not just to come. Jiao Wei didn't know that he would come out in advance, he had been waiting for him near Gao's house before, and he didn't send anyone to book a table along the way.

Jiao Wei said with a smile: "I don't have any hobbies, I just like to come here to sit, if Brother Ouyang has nothing else to do, why don't you go in together?" ”

Ouyang Jie knew very well that Jiao Wei would not bring him to the Suzhou Hall as simple as listening to the commentary.

But if he doesn't go, then he can only go alone, as Jiao Wei said, he is also afraid of death, he also wants to hug his grandson, and he also wants to return to his hometown to add soil to his father's grave.

He got up and got out of the carriage and walked into the Suzhou Hall with Jiao Wei.

Jiao Wei didn't bring his entourage, and as soon as the two of them kicked into the hall, a young man wearing a cocoon silk jacket came over and hugged his fists at Jiao Wei: "Uncle Jiao, you can count it, my ears are calloused when I hear this commentary." ”

Jiao Wei snorted, closed the folding fan in his hand and gave the latter a slap on the head, and scolded with a smile: "You kid, you are talking more and more nonsense, I won't see you in front of your uncle another day, and let you have a meal." ”

"Don't, don't, can't I take back what I just said? ”

Jiao Wei raised the folding fan and gave him another slap: "You flamboyant boy, if you don't lead the way quickly, you will count the most talkative, and if you offend my old man, you will be punished to listen to the commentary here for three days and three nights." ”

The young man curled his neck exaggeratedly and made a frightened look.

Ouyang Jie had already understood, it turned out that he would come, this young man occupied the table here every day, looking at this, he was afraid that he had been here for a few days.

Hearing Luo Shao say that he was going to sue in front of his uncle, then this person is not the Luo family, he is Qin Jue's person.

Ouyang Jie was secretly surprised, it seems that what Jiao Wei said about waiting near Gao's house for a few days was not an exaggeration, could it be that Qin Jue had already known that he would be attacked?
