Chapter 204: A Box of Accounts

Zhang Yongnian could have said it in another way, such as promising to send silver to Wang Xiao and Wang Fang in the future.

But in the end, he decided to tell the truth what he was thinking.

One is that he sees Wang Xiao's actions in the suburbs of Beijing, and the other is that he admires Wang Zhen a lot.

Zhang Yongnian is a martial artist, and many truths were told to him by Wang Zhen before, and he hid them in his heart for many years before he slowly figured them out.

Since Wang Zhen guided himself to figure it out, he thought that Wang Zhen's younger brother was also a member of his generation.

After saying it in one breath at this time, he looked at Wang Xiao and was a little nervous.

saw that Wang Xiao was only slightly surprised, and then returned to a calm look, and faintly looked a little disapproving.

Zhang Yongnian was slightly disappointed.

Wang Xiao took a pen and made a note on the paper with a serious face, and said, "Next, I'll test you a few questions." ”

……

After an interview, Zhang Yongnian felt very tired.

It wasn't until he got out of the room and smelled the outside air that he relaxed.

At this time, he realized that the young man had unknowingly made himself nervous.

Thinking of what Wang Xiao said just now, he still felt shocked in his heart.

It was so unfathomable at such a young age.

What he lacks as a martial artist is such a scheming wisdom in the court......

When the kitchen was ready, they went to the hall for supper.

Zhang Yongnian looked around, only himself and the three brothers of the Wang family, a total of four.

They didn't keep Qiu Pengcheng.

Ha ha.

"It was a business just now, if there is any rudeness, please forgive Brother Zhang." Wang Xiao held chopsticks in his hand and said.

He is still very young now, and he looks quite well-behaved at this time.

Zhang Yongnian was a little respectful and afraid, and said busily: "There is a clear distinction between public and private, and I only have admiration in my heart." ”

"Then it's out of sight, let's go." Wang Xiao proposed happily.

He really didn't see the outside, he was flying like a chopstick, and he ate quite attentively.

There are a lot of meat dishes on the table, such as secret sauce elbow, coriander loin, Kyoto pork ribs, stir-fried kidney flowers, etc., all of which are Zhang Yongnian's favorite dishes.

There are also some vegetarian dishes that are also very delicious.

And the wine, well prepared. There is a shortage of wine in other places, but Wang Zhu's Yiyuan cannot be lacking.

Zhang Yongnian only glanced at it, and secretly praised Wang Zhu's thoughtful hospitality, and hurriedly raised a glass to Wang Zhu.

When the wine entered his throat, Zhang Yongnian was slightly stunned.

Wang Zhu smiled and said: "This wine is the brewing method of Xinfeng wine. ”

Xinfeng is the hometown of Chang'an, and now Chu belongs to Xi'an City, called Lintong County. It is the place that was recently captured by Tang Zhongyuan.

Zhang Yongnian thought of this and sighed softly.

In my ears, I heard Wang Zhu say: "Xinfeng wine fights ten thousand, how many years has Xianyang Ranger." Although it is the first time I have met Brother Zhang today, I have heard my brother mention Brother Zhang's chivalry and ambition. Therefore, after thinking about it, I used this Xinfeng wine to entertain, and wished Brother Zhang brilliant achievements in the coming year, and one day recovering Xi'an for the court and leveling the world! ”

"Good!" Zhang Yongnian's heart warmed, and he was very happy, and raised his glass to Wang Zhu again.

"The second master is not only thoughtful, but also knows me and understands me!" He felt nostalgic in his heart, and he was speechless for a while, so he had to say loudly: "Meet the righteous spirit for the king!"

As he spoke, he drank another glass of wine.

Wang Xiao was chewing a piece of tenderloin in his mouth, but he rolled his eyes in his heart.

Thoughtful? My second brother shouldn't be too mean.

Recovering Xi'an? This is obviously a trick on you, the second brother also gave Tang Zhongyuan advice to let him attack the capital, do you know?

For the king's drink? The first person who proposed to ban alcohol was this Wang Er, do you know?

On the seat, the three of them chatted hotly, and one of them buried his head in eating attentively.

Zhang Yongnian had the heart to say a few more words to Wang Xiao, but Wang Xiao had been busy picking up vegetables, so he couldn't find a chance.

When he finally saw Wang Xiao put down his chopsticks, he was about to toast a cup.

But I heard Wang smile and say: "Big brother, second brother, Brother Zhang, I'm full." ”

Wang Zhen smiled bitterly.

Wang Zhu said lightly: "I have prepared a carriage and horses for you, and you can get out if you want to." ”

"Thank you, second brother." Wang smiled and said, "This coriander loin and Kyoto pork ribs taste good." ”

"I've packed it for you, let's get out of here."

Wang Xiao gestured and said, "The second brother is not only thoughtful, but also knows me and understands me!" ”

Zhang Yongnian saw him making fun of Wang Zhu with his own words, and felt quite inappropriate in his heart - how could a younger brother be so rude to his brother-in-law.

But he was indeed a little frightened by Wang Xiao's 'wisdom of scheming', and he didn't dare to speak out for a while.

The next moment, Wang Xiao smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, wait for my news, rest assured." ”

Zhang Yongnian was stunned, but saw that Wang Xiao had already Shi Shiran out of the house.

……

As soon as he got into the carriage, Wang Xiao felt Wang Zhu's thoughtfulness.

There were actually two food boxes.

Each drawer contains two small dishes, small in quantity, but exquisite.

There are also two pots of small wine, open and smell, the daughter of osmanthus fragrance is red.

One for Qianqian, one for Ying'er.

The second brother knows that I understand me-Wang Xiao sighed secretly.

I shouldn't be the younger brother of Wang Lao'er, I should be his customer.

The carriage walked up slowly, and Wang Xiao recalled the words he had said to Zhang Yongnian and smiled faintly.

I deliberately didn't pay much attention to Zhang Yongnian just now.

It is necessary to use him greatly, so as to leave him a sense of mystery.

This patrol battalion is quite ambitious and thoughtful, and after becoming a general, he also began to read some books.

I don't know where he listened to the big truth, but he dared to set a set with himself.

I should have learned it from my eldest brother, but it was too 'simple'.

Who are you?

β€”β€”The little fox who has just been recruited by the old foxes of Qian Carrier and Lu Zhengchu.

Can you be bluffed by him?

'Your Majesty is the Emperor of the Ages' haha, how many times have you seen Your Majesty?

After a while, Wang Xiao suddenly frowned and asked the coachman, "Why haven't you seen Sang Luo recently?" ”

"Miss Sangluo did something wrong and was kicked out of the house by the second master."

Wang Xiao was stunned.

Wang Lao Er is also too unsympathetic.

But maybe it's because I'm too emotional.

When I asked the coachman again, I didn't know anything else......

After getting out of the carriage, he carried the food box to Snow Alley, but saw that the gate was locked.

Tang Qianqian was not at home again.

Wang Xiao had the key, so he opened the door and went in to have a look.

After walking around, I saw a letter on the table......

"If Xiaolang sees this letter, I think there is a tacit understanding between you and me."

Just reading the opening sentence, Wang Xiao smiled lightly.

"People have an urgent matter that needs to go out of Beijing to do it, and they will come back in more than ten days if they are fast, and they will go through many years and months if they are slow, so I hope you don't worry."

The smile on Wang Xiao's face faded.

Years?

After years and months, Tang Zhongyuan has reached the capital, what else can not be done?

This is obviously quite dangerous!

Wang Xiao frowned.

saw Tang Qianqian add another sentence at the end: "This matter is trivial, but there is no danger, Xiaolang must not be worried." ”

The frown loosened.

But it didn't take long for Wang Xiao's brow to furrow again.

Tang Qianqian's woman obviously knows herself very well.

The last sentence she added showed that the matter was very dangerous.

So he put away the letter and rummaged through the house.

He was in this room all the time, and he knew the location of the items quite well.

A neat and simple room, I can't find any clues when I look for them.

He was unwilling, and after rummaging for a long time, he actually found a secret door in the closet.

All the way from the secret door, there is another woman's boudoir.

As soon as the candlelight shone, Wang Xiao was startled and exclaimed: "Qianqian? ”

When I looked at it again, I found that it was a hanging costume, and the style was singing.

There are many musical instruments in the room, such as lute, qin, and ser, and there are some dancing fans hanging on the wall.

On the table in the middle, there were a few booklets, and a box of accounts was placed on the ground.

Wang Xiao opened the door first and looked at the courtyard.

Swing rack.

Sure enough, it is Chen Yuanyuan's house, a famous singer in Wuzhong.

He went back into the room and looked at the book on the table.

After a while, Wang Xiao couldn't help but shake his head lightly and sighed.

"Silly woman."

You show that everything is calm, but you hide all your difficulties in these papers and inks.

I thought you had a good deal in the coal business, but you kept two books full of books.

I thought you remembered the account beautifully, but you miscalculated it many times, ticked and scratched, and finally copied it again.

I thought you knew everything about the four major merchants in the capital, but you were screened out of these twenty-eight families little by little.

I thought you would understand the financing plan as soon as you said it, but it was enough to give examples of various figures of cost dividends......

Putting down the account book in his hand, and picking up another booklet and opening it, Wang Xiao couldn't help but be stunned.

This booklet is full of stick figures.

Her drawing skills are quite poor, but she can still see that Wang Xiao is drawn on every page.

Some of them are like him panicking, and some of them are like him climbing over the wall.

There was also a picture of him lying on the couch and being stunned.

She didn't use a pen, she just used a brush to draw it simply after writing accounts, and she didn't color it with danqing, so she was as stupid as a villain's book......

The candlelight illuminated Wang Xiao in the booklet, and Wang Xiao who held the booklet stood silently for a long time.

In the night, he finally sighed lightly:

"You are engaged in the business of killing officials and rebelling, and the situation is really as calm as I have seen?"

……

At the same time.

Bauhinia Pass.

This is the main road leading from Gyeonggi to Taihang Mountain, which is known as the first Xiongguan in southern Jinan, and is the seventh of the eight Taihang Mountains and the fourth of the nine stops in the world.

Under the moonlight, above the Bauhinia Ridge, more than 20 horsemen rushed to the ground.

"The last general of the Beijing camp Fenwu battalion guerrilla general Bao Wu, if you have something important to go to Datong, please see General Sun, and please check the charm to clear the customs!"

"The last general Jingying Baowu ......"

After shouting like this a few times, the torches lit up above the pass, reflecting the four big characters of "Zisaijing City" with iron and silver hooks.

"Do you understand the rules?! Shouting at night, if it weren't for the fact that you are coming from the direction of the capital, Lao Tzu will shoot you as a thief's probe! The defenders of the castle shouted.

Tang Bowang shouted: "The military situation is like fire, please put down the hanging basket, verify the order, and open and close it as soon as possible!" ”

There was a sound of rustling on the city.

In the group of knights, a thin and small black-faced young man turned his head to look back at Jingshi, reached into his arms, and gently rubbed the sandalwood comb in his arms......

After a while, the door slowly opened.

"General Bao, a small reminder, the plague in Shanxi is very troublesome, if there is a cough and fever, he will be cured on the road, don't wait until he is killed by an arrow under the city of Datong......"

"Please bring enough dry food on the road, you can't find anything to eat on the way......

Tang Bowang nodded and rode forward.

In the moonlight, the majestic pass is still thousands of years.

Tang Qianqian pinched the wooden comb and said in her heart: "In such a situation, Sun Baigu still wants to defend Shanxi and Xuanda in the coming year?" ”

Don't say that it is Sun Baigu, even if Sun Bin, Bai Qi, and Guigu are alive, they don't want to stop the iron hooves of our righteous army!
