All the way to the palace gate, Wang Xiao asked for an audience.

After a while, Xiao Huangmen trotted back, and said with a smile: "The horse is unlucky, Your Majesty's dragon body is not safe, please go back......"

This is what Wang Xiao expected - Wang Fang got the order to assassinate Wang Zhu, but he swaggered out of Beijing, and Emperor Yanguang was angry in his heart, and he would not see him.

He saluted respectfully in the direction of the Qianqing Palace.

When he got up again, he saw the money carrying this way. The two looked at each other and nodded knowingly.

"Presumably Lord Qian impeached me again today?"

Qian Chengyun arched his hand, and said in a weird manner: "It's just a matter of acting as an official." The horses transferred officers and soldiers last night, can there be an order from our military department? If not, you are guilty of a grave sin. ”

Wang smiled: "At that time, the matter was urgent, and I am here to make up for it now." ”

"It's not ...... proper

After choking a few words with each other like this, Wang Xiao generously entered the public house carried by the Ministry of War.

After taking their seats, Qian Chengyun smiled and said: "The overall situation of epidemic prevention in the capital has been decided, but the horse doesn't seem to be very happy? ”

"It's a long way, but it's only a step away, and there's nothing to be happy about." Wang Xiao asked, "How did my father react?" ”

"Your Majesty has reacted." Qian Chengyun said unhurriedly: "Fortunately, Xia Guan has won the trust of His Majesty." ”

"You're good." Wang Xiao praised him and asked, "What about other things in the court?" ”

"Lu Zhengchu resigned again today, and His Majesty agreed."

"Promised?"

"According to the Northern Line, Jiannu will send troops to the Kou ...... next month."

The two talked in a low voice for a while, and Wang smiled: "You have another contact with Lu Zhengchu, I will give him this year's salary, but I want a position as the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan......"

After a while, Qian Chengyun finally reminded: "When the position of the prince of King Qi is decided, our alliance with Zuo Jinglun will come to an end. Horses should be prepared in advance. ”

"I understand."

Wang Xiao stood up and was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered something again and asked, "Has anyone ever splashed feces outside your door?" ”

Qian Chengyuan was stunned for a moment, stroked his beard and said: "There is no dung, but someone threw pickles into the lower official mansion a few times twelve years ago...... That year, when Xia Guan first arrived at the Criminal Department, he handled a case and was misunderstood, and his reputation has been stinking since then. Fortunately, the lower officials later lived up to this reputation. ”

"How do you prevent it?"

"Someone dares to do this, just because they think no one can find him. If you find someone and kill them, you will be clean. ”

Wang Xiao laughed at himself and said to himself, "It's just a little thing." ”

"I'm afraid of it again and again." Qian Chengyun sighed: "This is the difficulty of being a good person in the Chu Dynasty, and it is easy for officials to keep their hearts, one month and a year." But over the years, there will be times when people are discouraged. ”

He twisted his beard and said lightly: "The horse will slowly know that the faces of the people in the world are actually ...... Annoying. Greedy and selfish, ignorant and treacherous, listening to the wind is the rain, and the slightest instigation will be rushed. The ponies worked hard to protect the group...... This is sour and bitter, and it is inconvenient for the lower officials to say more. ”

Wang Xiao was stunned.

He was stunned not by the words "money carrier". Instead, he found himself feeling a little ...... Pleased.

Aren't those people just annoying?

But he clearly and clearly knew that he was generalizing.

But at this time...... It's pleasure.

Wang Xiao shook his head suddenly and stepped back.

All along, he was confident that he could carry this traitor with good money. If you know how to use people, you can make traitors do good things.

Unexpectedly, now Qian carries a word, but it seems to drag him to take another step into the abyss of power......

Wang Xiao didn't speak again, walked out of the military headquarters with all kinds of contempt, anger, and flattery, and led Zhuang Xiaoyun all the way out of the city.

Suddenly, a rotten vegetable leaf flew over. was photographed by Zhuang Xiaoyun with a scabbard.

Wang Xiao turned his head to look, and saw a rickety old woman on the side of the road carrying a basket of rotten vegetables, staring at him with extreme disgust.

"Traitor! Just because of you, my dishes are rotten. ! I can't live anyway...... You have the ability to kill my old woman. ”

Zhuang Xiaoyun said angrily: "Didn't you receive the relief food?!" Otherwise, where will you have the strength to throw things? ”

"That's ...... That was the grain sent by His Royal Highness King Qi! ”

Someone responded: "Yes, I heard that this traitor persecuted His Highness last night......"

Zhuang Xiao was lucky to draw his knife, but he was a little hesitant to look at the old woman's miserable appearance, so he turned his head and glanced at Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao said lightly: "Can you really kill her?" ”

Zhuang Xiaoyun was stunned.

"Let's go."

In this way, more and more people threw things over, and it gradually became a posture of shouting and fighting.

When he arrived at the Beijing Suburb Industrial Park like this, seeing Zhuang Xiaoyun's depressed face, Wang Xiao smiled and said again: "It's okay, it won't affect the overall situation." ”

"If we hadn't cremated the corpses, we would have done a great job a long time ago, not for them? But they ......"

"It's nothing, you can block people's mouths, and you can also block people's hearts?" Wang Xiao dropped a sentence and went directly into the public room.

Zhuang Xiaoyun looked at Wang Xiao's back, and suddenly felt that his words and deeds today were more and more like Wang Zhu, a cold and unhappy look.

~~

Master Fu Qing has not yet recovered, so it is inconvenient for him to come forward. Most of the things in the industrial park are temporarily taken over by Wang Zhen, but when it comes to big decisions or some new technologies, Wang Xiao can only handle them himself.

Among them, those small inventions and creations are nothing more than some tedious and boring things, Wang Xiao only knows the general principle, he can say as much as he knows, and the rest can only be explored by those craftsmen themselves.

Most of the time this kind of scientific and technological innovation is trial and error, and sometimes after a busy day, it can be said that there is a lot of progress, or it can be said that there is no progress at all.

But today, the atmosphere is a little different.

They all do things lightly and speak carefully.

Wang Xiao could feel that everyone in the industrial park was respectful to him, but he was faintly afraid.

As if he was afraid that he would cut off someone's head if he didn't agree.

When night fell, the long and boring working hours were barely over, so Wang Xiao went to Wang Zhen's mansion and asked, "Will the eldest brother go back to Beijing together?" ”

Because tomorrow is the birthday of the deceased mother Su, Wang Xiao knows that Wang Zhen will definitely go back to Wang's house tonight.

Wang Zhen raised her head and glanced at Wang Xiao, thought about it imperceptibly, and then said with a smile: "Third brother, go back first, I'll deal with some things." ”

"Okay, I'll let Zhuang Xiaoyun escort the eldest brother for a while."

Seeing Wang Xiao's figure retreat, Wang Zhen sighed, hugged his head, and lay on the table.

He really didn't want to go with Wang Xiao today.

He didn't know why he was like this, but every year when this day approached, he really ...... I don't really want to see my brother.

I still remember that on the ninth day of November of that year, after the midwife's sentence "keep the big or the small", it was the mother's painful cry - "Keep my child." ”

After many years, thirty-year-old Wang Zhen suddenly cried like a child again.

After a long time, he whispered alone in the room: "Mother, fortunately, Xiao'er is the one who is most like you now......"

~~

It's night, 66 West Snow Lane.

Wang Xiao was a little disappointed when he found that the Qin family's sisters and brothers were not there.

Qin Xuance buried a few jars of wine underground, Wang Xiao dug out an altar, poured a bowl himself, and handed it to Geng Dang.

Geng Dang swallowed his saliva, but finally shook his head.

"I don't drink, I want to protect the pony."

"I'm not going to get lost this time."

"Then I will be faithful to my duty."

"You're the fuck."

It may not be said that it is a matter of things and people, but in the end, he had to bury Qin Xuance's wine back for him.

……

Then, Wang Xiao walked to the front of the East No. 7 courtyard, looked at the big copper lock in front of the door and thought about it, took out a very ugly purse from his arms, and took out the key from the purse.

Everything in the house is the same.

He did not light a candle and sat alone in the house for a while.

"Qianqian, people used to call me a traitor, but I didn't care, because I knew that I wasn't a traitor. But now I'm not sure ......"

"I hope that one day your rebels will really calm the four seas and give me soft rice to eat......"

"Actually, my favorite is when I'm demented, and at that time, only you know the secret......"

The moon moves and moves.

Wang Xiao suddenly saw a letter in front of the windowsill.

When I took it apart, it was inconvenient to say more about the letter, only two lines.

Wang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and finally laughed heartily.

Through the small words on the paper, he seemed to see Tang Qianqian's smiling appearance.

"I expected you to come over, and now I'm right."
