Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi entered the lobby, and saw the man sitting at the top with a fluttering beard and a lot of bearing, so they saluted and said, "I've seen Mr. Wang." ”

Wang Kang is used to being called 'Boss Wang' and 'Master Wang', and now 'Lord Wang' is tired of hearing it, but he also thinks that the title of 'Old Man' is quite good.

It seems that I still have to deal with more readers.

He was bored to see these two scholars, and they talked to each other, but when he heard that they had come to ask for food, he felt a little unsavory.

- Bullshit reader.

Over there, Sun Zhixin talked eloquently, recounting the trivial matters when he got along with Wang Xiao in Lulong County, and sighed with emotion "I have been taught a lot by the Marquis of Huaiyuan" and the like, and cried again when he mentioned what happened to the people of Jizhen.

Wang Kang is a businessman, he has never heard any nonsense, and he stroked his long beard and said that the industrial park is not taken care of by himself, but he can make the decision to sell grain to them at a low price.

"Sell?" Hu Jingshi was stunned.

"According to the amount you want, this batch of grain will cost more than 1,000 taels at least, and the old man will talk to you speculatively, so he will sell it to you for 600 taels......"

Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi left the Wang family, and they were at a loss again, the silver they brought had already run out, where to find six hundred taels?

After thinking about it, they only knew one Luo Yuan in the capital, so they went to Luo's house to ask to see him, but there was no one in Luo's family.

After some inquiry, I learned that Luo Yuan was actually sent to the anti-army peace talks.

"The imperial court probably wants to send Brother Luo to kill Tang Zhongyuan." Hu Jingshi said.

Sun Zhixin wanted to laugh, but he couldn't.

They stayed at the inn for one night, and before they got up the next day, they overheard the innkeeper say outside the house: "Two guest officers, there is a gentleman who has come to see him, calling himself Wang Zhen." ”

The two were overjoyed, hurriedly got up and freshened up, and rushed downstairs, but a group of brocade guards pounced on them, and put them on the ground after dividing them by two.

"What a guts! I also want to assassinate the eldest prince of Wang. The brocade-clothed guard officer and soldier sneered, and shouted: "Take it away!" ”

Hu Jingshi wanted to shout, but a rag was stuffed in his mouth.

They were taken to the Jinyiwei prison, and they were beaten twice in a daze to know what happened.

But when Niu Lao Er saw Wang Zhen at the inn, he shouted, "Wang Zhengli, return my brothers' lives!" Then he pounced......

At that time, it was Wang Zhen who suppressed the Iron Leopard Rebellion, Sun Zhixin had already told Niu Lao Er not to act rashly, but now he still encountered such a thing.

The two stayed in prison for another three days, only to learn that a scholar and no official body, it was extremely difficult to do something.

Three days later, the cell was opened, and a figure stood in the doorway.

Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi looked up, and they were stunned, with tears streaming down their faces.

"Xia Xiangwei ......"

~~

There was a mess of cups and plates on the table.

Hu Jingshi finished nibbling on another chicken leg, and then leaned on the chair and burped, not showing the bookish atmosphere of the past at all.

Sun Zhixin kept looking at Xia Xiangwei.

Then, they exchanged experiences with each other during this time......

“…… I rode back to Beijing with Guan Ningtie and stayed. Xia Xiangwei said this, and said: "If the teacher returns, we will be able to guard the Jingshi and pacify the Tang rebellion." ”

Sun Zhixin sighed at his experience in Liaodong, and asked, "Then, what about what you learned from Hou Ye?" Enlighten the people's wisdom and empower the people......"

"It's not a priority." Xia Xiangwei said: "It is important to calm the war first and return the peace of the four seas, as for these, it is not too late to slowly plan for it in the future." These days, I gradually realized that what the teacher said at that time on the bank of the Qinglong River was for the sake of our Chu people's belief and told them that this country is theirs, so that everyone can cheer up. ”

"But ......"

"Do you know how many people there are in Jizhen?" Xia Xiangwei asked.

Sun Zhixin was stunned.

"Three million people." Xia Xiangwei said, "Three million people bowed down and killed, let tens of thousands of Jiannu kill dozens of people, and there are only a few rebels?" The people's livelihood and civil rights of the nation, the nation comes first, and only by guarding the nation first can there be people's livelihood and civil rights. ”

Sun Zhixin shook his head.

He felt that there was something wrong with Xia Xiangwei's thoughts, but he couldn't say anything for a moment.

He thought for a moment and said, "But, these are complementary ......."

While speaking, another soldier walked into the room and whispered something to Xia Xiangwei.

Xia Xiangwei thought about it, and then whispered a few words.

Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi didn't dare to eavesdrop on his military affairs, their bodies avoided back, and when they looked at it, they saw Xia Xiangwei's expression calm and determined, and he already had the majesty of a superior.

The two looked at themselves again, and they were inexplicably ashamed of themselves.

Over there, Xia Xiangwei finished explaining the matter, and the soldier retreated, he turned his head to look at the two friends, but asked again: "You came to the capital, can you see Ruan Kangping?" ”

Hu Jingshi said: "I saw it last time. ”

But he shook his head as he spoke.

Sun Zhixin asked Xia Xiangwei, "Have you seen him too?" ”

Xia Xiangwei said lightly: "When he studied under Lu Gongneng to make progress, I didn't expect to become a drill camp man who fights the wind and cracks." He has now taken refuge in Bian Xiuyong, the second assistant of the cabinet, in a vain attempt to win over Guanning Tieqi...... Fly camp dog Gou, drive it back. ”

Hu Jingshi thought that the last time he saw Ruan Kangping, the other party was quite arrogant, and at this time, listening to Xia Xiangwei's tone, it was obvious that Ruan Kangping had changed his face in front of Xia Xiangwei, and bowed down and stammered.

"Yongping Sixiu...... There is no more Yongping Sixiu. Sun Zhixin sighed.

Xia Xiangwei said: "We are from Yongping Mansion. ”

There is no beginning or end to his words, but Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi understood what he meant-the whole city of Yongping Mansion was slaughtered, they are from Yongping Mansion, and they should have a burden on their shoulders......

"Now the person in charge of Beijing is the teacher's brother, Mr. Wang Zhenwang, who wanted to come to see you in person today, but something happened to leave the city." Xia Xiangwei said again: "Now that the mountains and rivers are broken, it is the time for your husband to rise up, if you are willing to come forward to do something, you might as well stay......

Sun Zhixin said: "We don't want to seek fame. ”

"Not for fame and wealth, just for ambition." Xia Xiangwei said, "The imperial court can also accept the surrender of the Iron Leopard. ”

Sun Zhixin thought about it, but still shook his head.

Xia Xiangwei looked at him seriously, his eyes were very honest, and asked, "What?" ”

"I don't know." Sun Zhixin sighed: "Marquis Huaiyuan has taught us a lot, but he still guards this ...... Court. Maybe I haven't figured it out yet, but I don't want to stay in the capital, I'm afraid that one day, I will become like Ruan Kangping......"

Xia Xiangwei didn't force it, and turned his head to look at Hu Jingshi.

Hu Jingshi thought for a while and said, "I'll go with Brother Sun." ”

"Okay." Xia Xiangwei said: "Mr. Wang has prepared the food and materials you want, and he has transferred a few managers from the Beijing Suburban Industrial Park, you can take them away." ”

"Really?!"

"Really."

"Don't want silver?"

"Mr. Wang is joking with you, just testing your mind......"

~~

It was night, the three of them fell asleep, Xia Xiangwei was obviously very tired, and fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

Hu Jingshi finally couldn't help but ask Sun Zhixin in a low voice: "Brother Sun, why don't you want to follow Huaiyuanhou like Brother Xia." ”

Sun Zhixin thought for a while and said: "Because he is the Marquis of Huaiyuan, what I admire is that he knows the truth of the world and leads to the avenue, not the identity of the Marquis of Huaiyuan of the Chu Dynasty...... And to work for the benefit of the people, more pure people are needed. ”

Hu Jingshi was a little puzzled.

Sun Zhixin said again: "Perhaps, Huaiyuanhou just uses those worldly principles as a means, but I regard them as my life's ambitions." What about you? Why not stay? ”

"I think what you said is right than what Xiang Wei said, those ...... It's complementary......"

~~

Two days later, Wang Zhen took time to meet Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi.

This "heart-warming master" Wang Zhen is not as lofty as they imagined, but extremely easy-going, and his demeanor is also very heartbreaking, but his face is deeply tired.

"This is the call of labor, he can go to Baipo with the two of them." Wang Zhen said, and brought out another person.

Sun and Hu looked at each other, and saw that Lao Zhao was quite bookish, but there was a sense of competence in his demeanor, and he was obviously a person who knew how to write and could do things.

After a bit of noise with Lao Zhao, they solemnly thanked Wang Zhen again.

"Well, the purpose of setting up an industrial park is to let the displaced people farm in peace, and the two of them are like-minded. Now that the capital is unstable, I am also worried about how to persuade people to farm......"

After talking to each other about people's livelihood, Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi Zhengjue were talking about each other, but another subordinate hurriedly came over and whispered a few words to Wang Zhen.

Sun and Hu didn't dare to bother anymore, so they had to get up and leave.

Wang Zhen actually asked people to release Niu Lao Er again, and asked Lao Zhao to lead people to Baipo with them.

……

After dealing with this trivial matter, Wang Zhen went out, went to Zuofu, and went all the way to the study.

In Zuofu's study, Zuo Jinglun is now healed, and although he is idle at home, he is obviously still well-informed.

"The old man heard that Wang Jue sent you a letter from Tang Zhongyuan?"

Wang Zhen sighed: "Sure enough, I can't hide it from Lord Zuo." ”

"If the old man guessed correctly...... Tang Zhongyuan is afraid that he wants to talk to your Wang family, not to talk to our Da Chu. ”

Wang Zhen smiled helplessly and took out a piece of letter paper from her arms.

"Lord Zuo, see for yourself."

Zuo Jinglun took it and squinted at it with old eyes, but saw that the content on the letter paper was very nondescript-

"My brother Wang Zhen respectfully. The Emperor told him that he didn't have the time to grind with you, even if he asked for any conditions, don't go too far, he has sincerity, let you be happy. Brother Wang Jue's book ......"
