Disappointed!

The Luyang townsman was full of disappointment.

In fact, before going to the banquet, his son Zhao Yu reminded him, but he still did not give up on reconciling with the Marquis of Ruyang, and it turned out that his son's judgment was correct.

It has nothing to do with whether his son offends the Marquis of Ruyang, because before his father and son went to the banquet, the other party had already invited the county orders of these Rushui counties present, which shows that the other party had already thought of a series of tricks against his father and son.

With a long sigh, the Marquis of Luyang stood up, looked at the Marquis of Ruyang, Zheng Zhong, and said in a deep voice: "Today, everyone with a discerning eye knows what is going on, but the rank here pretends not to know." Zhao had no intention of revealing it, just because I still hoped to reconcile with your mansion and get the understanding of the Marquis of Ruyang and the prince, but I didn't expect ......"

Shaking his head, he continued: "Today, the Marquis of Ruyang instigated the county magistrates to cut off the funding given to me for Luyang, in fact, Zhao is not surprised, because a few days ago, the prince threatened my father and son with these words......"

Zheng Qianyan's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he said with a calm face: "Zhao Gongyu, don't you want to talk about it!" ”

"Hmph."

Seeing the other party's denial, the Luyang townsman snorted contemptuously, did not argue with the other party, and said lightly: "I didn't say it, the prince himself knows it in his heart." ”

As he spoke, he looked up at the county magistrates present, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, as you said, I Luyang borrowed the financial resources of the counties to dig canals, which is a good move for Luyang and to the detriment of the counties, but the counties are not all without harvest, what the counties have harvested is the gratitude of my Luyang, and I Luyang owes the counties a great favor." …… What's more, after the completion of the canal, this canal connecting Rushui and Shahe will definitely feed back to the counties of Rushui, and it will not do more harm than good. If you don't understand, then ...... It is useless to say more. Zhao is not strong enough to drink, so he will say goodbye first and not disturb you to have fun. ”

Hearing the sincere words of the Luyang Township Marquis, the county commanders of the Rushui counties present looked at each other one after another, and even a few people showed a contemplative look.

As Zhao Yu guessed, these county commanders of Rushui County have long been dissatisfied with the funding of Luyang County, but because of the 'threat' of Liu Wei and Luyang Township Marquis at the beginning, they did not dare to rashly cut off the funding, lest Liu Wei and Luyang Township Marquis hold a grudge and deliberately encourage refugees to pour into the county under their rule.

The Marquis of Luyang Township is right, all kinds of things today, anyone with a discerning eye can see it, and the county commanders present can naturally see that someone is deliberately targeting the father and son of the Marquis of Luyang - either Zheng Zhong, Marquis of Ruyang, or Zheng Qian, the son of the world.

In fact, these county magistrates did not want to participate in the contradiction between the Marquis of Ruyang and the Marquis of Luyang Township, and the reason why they supported the Marquis of Ruyang was to retaliate against Liu Wei and the Marquis of Luyang who threatened them that day, and on the other hand, it was for the interests of their own county - they could not accept to use the wealth of their own county to fund Luyang County, fund Luyang County to help refugees, dig canals, and even more excessively, in the end, even the reputation was owned by Liu Wei and Luyang Township Marquis.

That's really ...... Is it tolerable or unbearable!

But the words of the Luyang Township Marquis made these county orders can't help but fall into contemplation.

Of course, there are also people who don't see it that way, such as Wang Dan, the county magistrate of Ruyang County, who immediately snorted coldly: "Hmph, great favor? Is it worth going to my county to transport all that money and grain? ”

At this time, Zhao Yu saw his father get up and prepare to leave, he also stood up, and happened to hear Wang Dan's disdainful face, he said with a smile: "Wang County Order, don't talk so much." At present, my Nanyang County is suffering, and a large number of refugees are pouring into my Luyang County, but God knows if there will be a similar disaster in Henan in the future? Maybe when the time comes, your county will have to rely on me Luyang in turn. ”

"Huh?"

Wang Dan was stunned when he heard this, and immediately laughed: "Haha, a little Luyang ......"

"It's not small." Zhao Yu shook his head and said: "After accepting those refugees, the population of my Luyang County has approached Ruyang, and even surpassed, as long as the food problem of the county people is solved, my Luyang will be prosperous in the future." …… Thirty years to the east of the river, thirty years to the west of the river, God knows what will become in the future? Keep this favor, maybe you will use it when you want. ”

After that, he glanced around the banquet hall and said meaningfully: "Next time, maybe I will have a banquet for you in my Luyang Township Mansion, and I will leave." ”

Before turning to leave, he glanced at Zheng Zhong, Marquis of Ruyang, and Zheng Qian, the son of Marquis of Ruyang, and saw that Marquis Ruyang could not see any clues on his face, and his wrinkled eyelids were open, looking at his father and son; And Zheng Qian, the prince of Ruyang, had a slight inexplicable sneer on his face.

Could it be that Zheng Qian did all this?

Of course Zhao Yu wouldn't think so, the Marquis of Ruyang couldn't see the clues on his face, but he was just good at hiding his emotions, so he didn't believe that the Marquis of Ruyang would invite the county orders of Rushui County without knowing anything, and instigate these county orders to decide off his Luyang County funding.

"What an arrogant father and son, who abide by etiquette on the surface, but are actually arrogant and unreasonable, thinking that the family is powerful, and they can rely on their power to force others to submit? Hmph, look at it.'"

With a sneer in his heart, Zhao Yu turned around and left, keeping up with his father's footsteps.

"This kid...... Cast a mist before somebody's eyes. ”

Wang Dan and several other county commanders shook their heads and smiled.

But there are also those who are not smiling, such as Yangren County, Zhengzhou and Zheng Zixiang.

To be precise, he didn't laugh from the beginning, nor did he echo the words of the Marquis of Ruyang, but just quietly observed the father and son of the Marquis of Luyang.

If it is said that the Marquis of Luyang Township is not shocked by the honor and disgrace, and the demeanor of patiently and sincerely explaining to everyone makes Zhengzhou quite appreciated, then the second son of the Marquis of Luyang named Zhao Yu, the meaningful gaze of this son before leaving, makes Zhengzhou feel more and more concerned.

"Uncle and cousin, I'm afraid I've offended someone who shouldn't be offended this time......

Glancing at the Marquis of Ruyang and the prince of the Marquis of Ruyang, Zheng Qian thought secretly.

At this time, Zheng Qian, the prince of Ruyang, got up and said with a smile: "Everyone, regardless of his father and son, we will continue to drink." ”

As he spoke, he clapped his hands and called the dancers to dance.

At the same time, the Marquis of Luyang had already led Zhao Yu, Jingnu, Cao An, Zhang Chun and other guards, and left the Ruyang Marquis Mansion with indignation.

On the way, all the guards couldn't help but curse and denounce the rudeness of Ruyanghou's father and son.

The townsman of Luyang was also very angry, and for a quarter of an hour, he sat in the carriage without saying a word, and both Jingnu and Cao An, who were in the same carriage with the father and son, subconsciously held their breath and did not dare to speak.

Only Zhao Yu didn't mean to be annoyed at all, with one hand on his cheek, lying on his side in the carriage.

He even joked with his father with a smile: "It is the first time a child has seen his father so angry." ”

"Not angry, but disappointed."

The Marquis of Luyang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I always thought that the cruel words that Zheng Qian put down that day were just angry words, but I never thought that he really encouraged his father...... And what disappointed me even more was Ruyang Hou, I originally respected him for three points. ”

"Maybe it's just that I'm used to being strong." Zhao Yu chuckled and said, "Ruyang Zheng family, isn't it a wealthy family in Henan?" There are many children in the family, and no one dared to offend them in the past, and over time, they have become accustomed to today's arrogance...... Dad, what's next? ”

"What else can I do?"

The Marquis of Luyang Township took a breath and said in a deep voice: "Let's prepare for the worst first." …… If the Rushui counties really cut off the money and grain to support my Luyang, then we will have to come up with another countermeasure before the spring of next year. ”

"That'...... Dad, do you have a solution? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

The townsman of Luyang was silent for a long time, and a little complicated color flashed on his face, and then he pondered: "It's really not good, so I'll find your grandfather to find a way......

"Grandfather?" Zhao Yu was stunned, immediately sat up, and asked curiously: "Dad, what you are talking about is my mother's ......"

"Hmm." The Marquis of Luyang nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Your mother was born in the Yuncheng Zhou family, and the Yuncheng Zhou family is also a local family...... Quite rich. ”

"Quite rich?"

Zhao Yu blinked and said tentatively: "How about comparing it to our township Hou Mansion?" ”

"......" Luyang Xianghou shook his head, his expression was a little unnatural.

"Richer than the Xianghou Mansion?"

Zhao Yu was surprised, but what made him quite puzzled was that he had been in this family for a long time, but his father and mother had never mentioned the Zhou family in Yuncheng, and besides, when he was short of money and food in Luyang County in order to implement cash-for-work, his father never mentioned it.

Don't......

As if thinking of something, Zhao Yu couldn't help but smile and asked, "Dad, my grandfather is he...... It can't be that I don't like you, right? ”

Immediately, the face of the Luyang townsman changed, and he opened his mouth as if he wanted to scold, but in the end he just glared at Zhao Yu.

Get!

Seeing his father like this, Zhao Yu guessed that the relationship between Weng and his son-in-law might be far more than bad, and the relationship might be extremely bad.

After glaring at his son fiercely, the Marquis of Luyang Township settled down, and said, "Just tomorrow, I will take your mother and your two brothers to Yuncheng...... Although your grandfather didn't like to be a father, he liked your two brothers quite a lot, so you should be clever when the time comes. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Zhao Yu glanced at his father with a strange expression, and then said with a smile: "Don't be, Dad, the child has other arrangements." ”

"Huh?" The townsman of Luyang was stunned when he heard this: "What arrangement?" ”

I saw Zhao Yu chuckle lightly and said, "The child is going to Wancheng again to see that General Wang Shangde." ”

"See him for what?" The Marquis of Luyang asked puzzled.

"For his military market, of course." Zhao Yu smiled and said: "Just like what you said, do everything to plan for the worst, since you can't count on the Rushui counties, then you can only find another way." …… The child's strategy is to get a sum of money from General Wang Shangde's military market, and by the way...... In short, don't worry, Dad, the child has a countermeasure. ”

The Luyang Township Marquis nodded suspiciously and asked, "How much capital do you need?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Yu chuckled and shook his head.

"If it goes well, you don't need a copper coin!"
