Chapter 328: Yide Bookstore
"It's not a secret, it's a businessman from out of town." Lu Yuan explained.
"Then it's no wonder." The fat boy didn't think about it anymore and explained:
"In this unicorn conference, in addition to recruiting foreign talents, local talents are also recruiting, and the Marquis of Changle, the Marquis of Zhennan and the Prime Minister are all qualified to recommend a talent to the king, and they can participate directly without passing the selection checkpoint set by the king."
"I see." Lu Yuan nodded.
That is to say, when the time comes, the three parties will send one person to participate in the Qilin Conference, and Yuwenxiao will follow Dai Jin's side, maybe he will take a fancy to this quota and hope that Dai Jin will recommend him.
After the fat boy answered, he was about to leave, Lu Yuan still had many questions, where would he let him go, and pulled him to continue to ask: "What happened to the third scene just now?" ”
The fat boy replied, "Obviously, it's just to recognize the name of the flower." ”
"Why is it more than this?"
"Well, it's normal for you outsiders not to understand." The fat boy said leisurely:
"We Wuyue people, from the top to the king, down to the ordinary people, all have a special sense of flowers and plants, which should belong to a kind of qi ng."
Lu Yuan naturally didn't believe his nonsense, * translated into the fact that King Wuyue liked flowers and plants, so in order to please him, officials competed to buy exotic flowers and plants from the people and present them to him.
In order to make money, the common people naturally collected these strange flowers and plants, so this kind of flower-loving atmosphere was formed unconsciously.
Seeing that he didn't ask any more, the fat boy turned around and left.
Lu Yuan glanced at Su Qingzhe in the distance, and didn't plan to go directly to him. The best way is to find Qi Zhen and let him spread the news.
……
Su Qingzhe sat on the carriage and was returning to the mansion where he lived, and after he came to Wu Yueguo, he was welcomed more grandly than he imagined.
Qian Hongyu, the king of Wuyue, arranged a huge mansion for him, the scale of which was not much worse than the ordinary princely mansion, and he personally went to the mansion to see him a few times.
Su Qingzhe understood very well that King Wu Yue deliberately elevated him, not only because of his talent, but also to promote himself.
Because he abandoned the Hui'an Mansion and defected to Wu Yue, the people will have a sense of pride when they learn this, which can offset the bad impact of some of Wu Yue's army losing to the Hui'an army.
When other officials saw that the king was like this, they would naturally cooperate, so now the upper class of the entire Hangzhou is very welcoming to him.
King Wu Yue's behavior made Su Qingzhe have a new idea, he had already asked Qi Zhen to go back to Hui'an Mansion and report his thoughts to Lu Houye, and now he is waiting for Qi Zhen to come back.
Back at the mansion, Su Qingzhe went straight into the study, sat on the chair, closed his eyes, and began to sort out the intricate situation in Hangzhou in his mind.
Nowadays, the situation of the three parties in Hangzhou is very obvious, among which the battle between Changle Hou and Zhennan Hou is the most intense, which can be glimpsed from the competition between the eldest son of the Cai family and Dai Jin today.
The power of Prime Minister Zhu Anming's party is particularly low-key.
This phenomenon is actually very abnormal, because Dai Mu's current strength is the weakest among the three parties, and his foundation is far inferior to Cai Gao.
But in fact, Dai Mu not only did this, but also took advantage of the wrestling with Cai Gao.
If Su Qingzhe hadn't come to Hangzhou, I'm afraid he would have been a little confused about this situation, but after staying in Hangzhou for a while, he would have understood the reason.
Dai Mu has the support of King Wu Yue behind him.
And he also understood the reason why King Wu Yue did this, in Hangzhou now, Cai Gao's power is too great, I am afraid that King Wu Yue has already given birth to jealousy, so he chose to use Dai Mu's hand to suppress it.
In addition to the identity of Changle Hou, Cai Gao also has a more prominent identity, he is the uncle of Qian Hongyu, the king of Wuyue, that is, the uncle of the dynasty, and Qian Hongyu's mother, Empress Dowager Cai, is his sister.
Su Qingzhe was thinking about it, and suddenly noticed a cool breeze blowing, no, how could there be wind in the study?
He hurriedly looked up, and saw a woman in black standing in front of him, staring coldly at him with a pair of autumn eyes, and the door of the study was open.
His back was slightly cold, and he was about to speak, when with a "bang", a person jumped in through the window, blocking in front of Su Qingzhe, it was Li Muyi.
At the same time, a group of guards rushed into the study and surrounded the woman, who had been sent by King Wuyue to protect Su Qingzhe in case the people of the Hui'an Mansion captured him.
"Wait." Su Qingzhe stopped the guards who were about to make a move, and asked the woman, "The girl came to visit late at night, I don't know what to do?" ”
The woman's eyes looked at Su Qingzhe for a while, and said lightly: "You are not shocked by the changes, but you are also a character, no wonder that guy takes such a fancy to you, but unfortunately it is a little stupid." ”
"I don't know where the stupidity is?" Su Qingzhe asked with a smile.
"Who is Qian Hongyu, you must have seen it, you don't wait for the Hui'an Mansion, but you came to Hangzhou, isn't it stupid?" The woman said coldly.
Su Qingzhe frowned secretly, and he couldn't figure out the other party's position for a while, so he didn't reply.
"Just wait, there will be a day when you regret it." The woman left this sentence coldly and rushed towards the door,
After a while, they rushed out of the encirclement of the guards and fled, and the guards hurriedly chased them out.
Li Muyi looked in the direction of the gate and said slowly: "Childe, should that woman be ......?"
Su Qingzhe stretched out his hand to stop him and shook his head.
After a while, the captain of the guard entered the study and bowed his hand to Su Qingzhe and said, "Li Gongzi, that woman ran too fast, and the brothers didn't catch up. ”
"Do you know who she is?" Su Qingzhe asked.
The chief guard shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, but don't worry, Childe, we will strengthen patrols in the future, and nothing like this will happen again." ”
"Then there's Captain Lao Zhou."
Waiting for the chief guard to leave, Li Muyi said in a low voice: "Childe, there are a few new books in the bookstore recently, do you want to take a look?" ”
Su Qingzhe's heart sank, knowing that Qi Zhen was back.
Because he was hidden in the shadows, the two never met in the Li Mansion, Qi Zhen bought a bookstore near the Li Mansion, and the two met in the bookstore every time.
"Okay, let's take a look."
When he went out, a guard asked, "Li Gongzi, do you still want to go out at such a late hour?" ”
Li Mu said angrily: "Bastard, the king sent you to protect my son-in-law, and you didn't look at my son-in-law, what are you doing so much?" ”
"Steward Li, don't do this." Su Qingzhe smiled and waved his hand, and said to the guard, "I'll go to the bookstore." ”
The guard didn't dare to ask again, and said with a smile: "Then you should be careful all the way." ”
The two walked for a while, and a small bookstore appeared in front of them, with the words 'Yide Bookstore' written on it.
Su Qingzhe stepped into the bookstore, and Li Muyi stood guard at the door.
In the bookstore, a bearded man was sitting on a chair, swaying around with Erlang's legs crossed, looking leisurely.
This man is Qi Zhen in disguise.
After seeing Su Qingzhe, he put away his disguise, stood up, and walked towards the inner room, and Su Qingzhe quickly followed.
"What did Master Hou say? Agree to my new plan? Su Qingzhe asked as soon as he entered the door.
Qi Zhen glanced at the window and said in a deep voice: "Master Hou said that he would act according to the original plan. ”
"Really?" Su Qingzhe sighed, a little disappointed. Suddenly, he noticed that Qi Zhen looked strange, as if he had something on his mind, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Qi Zhen shook his head and did not speak.
After he returned to Hui'an Mansion this time, he always felt that Lu Houye was a little weird, but he couldn't say where the blame was, and this suspicion was naturally difficult to say.
Shaking his head, he threw this matter out of his mind and said, "I heard that you have done a lot of things in the past few days, first you had a competition with Han Fu, the number one talent in Hangzhou. What kind of arbitration did you go to the Women's Poetry Society today, you have just been in Hangzhou for a short time, this is too high-profile, I am afraid that it will arouse people's jealousy. ”
Su Qingzhe smiled: "I came to Hangzhou this time to roast myself on the fire, and only by doing so can I achieve my goal faster." ”
"I'm just a little worried about your safety."
"Isn't there still an order from you and Li?" Su Qingzhe smiled and said, "Okay, if it's okay, I'll go back first." ”
As he spoke, he left the bookstore.
Qi Zhen returned to the outer hall and sat back on the chair, bored, he took out a knife and stone from his pocket and began to sharpen it.
At this moment, a woman entered the bookstore, followed by a man, who complained: "Senior sister, it's important to go to business first, and then buy books when you come back?" ”
"You're going to let me wait outside, didn't you think I'd be bored?" The woman glanced back at the man.
