"There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the vultures dare not do it, I will deal with it myself." "Wang Xiu didn't panic at all, and he didn't want Zhu Lian to worry.

"Whatever you do, I don't want to ask more, it's just that over there in Hebei, you really agree with them to take risks" Zhu Lian's thoughts shifted and he began to care about the situation in the north.

"Risks and opportunities are the same, counterattacking Hedong is not an opportunity to force out the captive cards, even if it is defeated, what can it do" Wang Xiu said lightly, but his gaze was particularly strange.

"Official" Zhu Lian looked at Wang Xiu in surprise, and from the bad smile, he suddenly saw many things, but they could be summed up in six words, which were beneficial and harmless.

That night, in Zhang Qiyuan's mansion, this guy sat on a high-backed chair in the study, sipping a glass of grape wine, and quietly listening to Chen Jiu's report.

"You are completely sure"

"My lord, what kind of person am I, Chen Jiu, can be regarded as mixing on the ground, although these things have passed for many years, I can still find clues." Chen Jiu pursed his lips, seemed to be very dissatisfied with Zhang Qiyuan's attitude, and looked at the wine greedily, it was a treasure in terms of color

"Well, that makes sense. However, these are trivial things, and there are no special things worth paying attention to" Zhang Qiyuan was a little embarrassed, Chen Jiu inquired about a lot of news, and there was a lot of gossip about more than ten years, but it was too far from his hope, and it was almost impossible to confirm his conjecture.

This guy has been mixed up on the ground in Jiangning for a few years, and he should be regarded as a well-informed person, so he seems to be a little disappointed.

"What else" Chen Jiu seemed to be thinking, and seemed to be naturally muttering to himself: "It's not special, it seems that there are rumors outside, the eldest lady of Wang Xianggong's family plus a flat wife, seems to be hiding Jiaojiao in the golden house, well, it is still two or three charming little ladies, who live in a simple place and are not known by outsiders." ”

"He Wang Dalang was originally in the morning and evening, what's wrong with hiding a few little ladies, you ask what these things are doing, what I want is his shortcomings."

Zhang Qiyuan's eyelids jumped, and he glared at Chen Jiu with a toothache. Men, especially men who are in and out of the prime of life, and there are a few who don't have three wives and four concubines, and even Li Gang has four concubines. To put it bluntly, Wang Xiu has a wife and a concubine on the surface, and he just hides a few concubines, it's not a big deal, even if Shilin knows, it's just the roar of the Hedong lion at home.

Chen Jiu pursed his lips and said in an unhappy tone: "My lord, the villain once saw Xu Zhong and her Hun family going in and out of that courtyard, as well as Li Caiwei of the Wang family. If you want to say that those people are all very high-status people in the Wang family, Wang Xianggong wants to hide a few little ladies, either openly and honestly, or they have to hide them, then Li Caiwei is the person next to the eldest lady of the Wang family. ”

"Oh, what you said also makes some sense, could it be that Wang Dalang has a ghost" Zhang Qiyuan couldn't help but be suspicious, although Chen Jiu was talking nonsense, what he said was good.

With Wang Xiu's status, even if he no longer accepts concubines, buying a few concubines is not the same as drinking water, even if he doesn't want to make Youqin Mo Yan unhappy, and secretly hides to set up a courtyard outside, he doesn't need to go out of the door without stepping out

What's more, Li Caiwei is the person next to Youqin Mo Yan, and she knows that it doesn't mean that Youqin Mo Yan knows that it doesn't make sense left and right

It seems that if you seek a truth, but grasp the clues of another matter, you may be able to turn over Wang Xiu's tail, and it is exciting to think about it.

"My lord, is this possible to start with Fengle Building" Chen Jiu said gloomily, Wen Xijun is a place where news gathers, maybe a little gain.

Zhang Qiyuan shook his head and said lightly: "Okay, you go to investigate again, don't care about the cost, go directly to the account room to withdraw if you have something, and you don't need to inform me under a hundred times." ”

Chen Jiu's eyes lit up, Baiguan didn't even need to tell Zhang Qiyuan, he just made a fortune, he couldn't withdraw money often, a few times was enough for him to eat, drink and have fun.

Yuyang Palace

Of course, Wang Xiu couldn't stay in the royal palace, and under the response of Qingjun and Zhang Quan, he left the palace through the secret passage.

Zhang Quan sent Wang Xiu away, which time was relaxed, Nima, the prime minister and the queen mother talked about military affairs at night, it was not a day or two, this should be known, he had a good head, and he had not tasted the delicious delicacies of the world

I didn't breathe a sigh of relief when I came back, and when I saw that Qingjun was still waiting for him, I said, "Shang Gong, Xianggong is gone." ”

Qingjun's face was very calm, and he bowed his head lightly and said: "Today, the prime minister came too suddenly, and the big official is not in the big house, or I don't know what to do." ”

Saying this, Zhang Quan smiled and said: "Send the prince to the prince, there is a need for the palace to run errands, naturally I will bear it with all my might." ”

"Well, Niangniang said, let us go when the princess leaves the palace."

"Oh, Niangniang has something" Zhang Quan shuddered, he has several mansions inside and outside the city, bought a few concubines with money, and bought a luxurious table clock a few days ago, could it be that the Queen Mother knows something

"If you go, you'll understand, why do you ask so much." Qingjun looked at Zhang Quan and turned around to leave.

"Shang Gong, isn't there a pimple in my heart, our monk palace is also a friend in trouble, so I lied in front of you." Zhang Quan is cautious, he lacks confidence

"Just your little, Niangniang doesn't pay attention to it, you think you are doing it secretly" Qingjun looked disdainful, and said to himself: "Why do you say you want so much money"

Zhang Quan pursed his lips, Qingjun is words Ah, he has the fattest inner servant provincial yamen, take Houyuan as an example, he is responsible for manufacturing the palace and royal wedding items, you can imagine the cat greasy inside, the most excessive thing is that you grasp this fat difference, and even lead the inner and eastern door division, which is to be hated

What kind of place is that that is the place that the inner servants absolutely dream of, in charge of the entry and exit of people and things in the palace, and the registration of the transfer of treasures in each room and the treasury,

The registration of tributes and purchased items makes people's eyes light up just thinking about it.

The most eye-catching thing is that he is also responsible for the rewards of the royal family and the monthly routine, the construction of the palace and the holding of banquets and other affairs.

Don't say all, just a little bit of it falls out of his fingers every month is enough for him to be luxurious for half his life. There are also big cats, rewards and large quantities of goods, whether they are transported by their own foot power, or sent by the Inner East Gate Division, among which the money hired by foot force and donkey carts can be calculated with their toes.

"That's all a gift from my mother, aren't we also walking on thin ice?"

"It's good if you know, Niangniang knows your preferences, as long as it's not too excessive, you can enjoy it, but don't forget that Niangniang doesn't care, it doesn't mean that others don't look at it." Qingjun looked at Zhang Quan with a half-smile and sneered: "Just like you, you have accepted seven or eight little ladies, and you are not cheap." ”
