Chapter 43: Tut-tut
Zhuo Wenjun put his hand on his forehead and said with a headache: "Then it seems that Your Majesty suffered a shipwreck, eighty percent should be true!" ”
Zhuo Wangsun stood up and said worriedly: "Even if it is eighty percent, it is too dangerous for our Zhuo family, Your Majesty's building ship to go to sea was built by our Zhuo family, if Your Majesty is really in trouble, the court will definitely hold our Zhuo family accountable!" ”
Zhuo Wenjun spoke: "The imperial court has issued a salt and iron decree before, and Sang Hongyang is in charge of salt and iron affairs, which proves that the imperial court has long had the intention of moving our Zhuo family.
Now that His Majesty is in trouble, it can be regarded as a perfect excuse for them, and they will definitely take this opportunity to uproot our Zhuo family and bring the iron-smelting business back to the imperial court! ”
Speaking of this, Zhuo Wenjun paused, and then said in a complaining tone: "Father, I have said a long time ago, the development of the Zhuo family has been a big blow now, you usually need to be low-key and cautious."
But you just want to recruit thousands of servants, and you deliberately show off the Zhuo family's financial resources when Sang Hongyang came to visit, which is extremely stupid! ”
Zhuo Wang Sun's face turned red, and he forcibly excused: "At that time, Sang Hongyang was just a petty official, who knew that he would be in charge of the salt and iron order in the future?" ”
Zhuo Wenjun didn't speak, just stared at Zhuo Wangsun.
Zhuo Wangsun was stared at uncomfortably, and finally compromised: "Okay, I was wrong, I should really keep a low profile!" But now it's useless to say this, the most important thing is to come up with a solution quickly, the Zhuo family must not be wiped out from my hands!! ”
As the contemporary head of the Zhuo family, Zhuo Wangsun is still very responsible.
Although he is extravagant, he is still a good head of the family after all.
Zhuo Wenjun pondered for a few seconds, and then said: "For today's plan, the only way to do this is to send capable people to the sea to find Your Majesty!" ”
Zhuo Wangsun frowned and said, "Your Majesty is very likely to have been shipwrecked, what's the point of looking for him?" ”
Zhuo Wenjun narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "Your Majesty's burial in the shipwreck is just our speculation, and it is of course the best to get Your Majesty back intact!"
If Your Majesty is gone, as long as we can recover Your Majesty's body, we can also make our Zhuo family's merits offset each other, and we will not be immediately questioned for robbery.
After that, we can spend a huge amount of money to pay homage to officials in various parts of the DPRK and China, and perhaps we can use this to completely exonerate our Zhuo family from responsibility! ”
Zhuo Wangsun's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed: "This is an excellent method, I will immediately arrange for the Zhuo family to go all out, and I will personally go to sea to find Your Majesty!" ”
"Never!"
Zhuo Wenjun immediately dissuaded: "Although the news of His Majesty's shipwreck has been blocked by Gongsun Hong, the third duke of the court must have received the news.
They will definitely send someone to closely monitor our Zhuo family, and once the news of His Majesty's return to heaven is confirmed, they will attack our Zhuo family as soon as possible! ”
Zhuo Wangsun frowned and said, "What does this have to do with my inability to go to sea?" ”
Zhuo Wenjun sighed and said: "Father, you are really confused, at such a sensitive moment, as the head of the Zhuo family, you lead all the members of the Zhuo family to the sea, what do you think the imperial court will think?" ”
Zhuo Wangsun thought about it, and said with an ugly face: "The imperial court will think that our Zhuo family deliberately built a problematic building ship and killed His Majesty, and now he wants to abscond in fear of crime!" ”
"That's right!"
Zhuo Wenjun nodded and said, "The imperial court will definitely think so, so father, you must not go to sea!" ”
Zhuo Wangsun had already figured everything out at this time.
He looked at Zhuo Wenjun with a worried expression and said, "So, the only one who can take people out to sea now...... It's just you! ”
Zhuo Wenjun smiled and said: "Yes, only if I take people to sea, can we save our Zhuo family from absconding in fear of crime, and at the same time, I can show the sincerity of our Zhuo family to the imperial court!" ”
Zhuo Wangsun couldn't help but say: "But the sea is vast and dangerous, how can you be a girl, how can you ......?"
Zhuo Wenjun interrupted: "Father, if I don't take risks, then the Zhuo family will be in great danger, and you won't understand the lesser of two evils, right?" ”
Zhuo Wangsun's face suddenly showed a painful expression.
Of course, he knew that Zhuo Wenjun going to sea was the only choice.
But he only has Zhuo Wenjun's daughter, who has been raised like meat since he was a child.
Now to watch Zhuo Wenjun take such a big risk, he really can't bear it!
Zhuo Wenjun took a few steps forward, gently hugged Zhuo Wangsun, and said in a low voice: "Father, please don't hesitate any longer, hurry up and dispatch the building ship here, within two days, I will go to sea to find Your Majesty!" ”
Zhuo Wangsun was silent for a long time, and finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go and dispatch, you ...... If you go to sea, you need to be careful and stay safe! ”
"I will!"
Zhuo Wenjun let go of Zhuo Wangsun's shoulders, and his delicate face was full of determination.
……
On the desert island, after the four of them ate the fragrant Dongpo elbow, they went back to take a nap.
In the evening, Tang Qi boiled a simple pot of rice porridge for dinner.
After all, everyone has just eaten such a greasy meal, and if they eat a greasy meal again, the stomach will definitely be unbearable.
On this desert island, if something goes wrong with the stomach, it's quite troublesome.
After all, there is still too little medicine on the island.
So rice porridge is the best choice.
With Tang Qi's cooking skills, even if it was just an ordinary rice porridge, it also made Liu Che, Wei Qing and Wei Zifu praise.
When dinner was over, the four of them sat down on the chair with their bellies touched, their faces full of satisfaction after a full meal.
"Lao Liu, how many more games shall we play to fight the landlord?"
Tang Qi asked Liu Che with some ill will.
Liu Che immediately shook his head and said: "Don't play, I always lose, it's boring to play!" ”
Tang Qi was helpless and looked at Wei Qing again.
Wei Qing shook his head even more desperately and said, "I don't play either, my family is already empty." ”
This is true, adding up the IOUs written by Wei Qing is enough to exhaust all the assets of the Wei Mansion.
Tang Qi couldn't help but sigh.
The wool is too ruthless.
Now the sheep are getting scared.
They should have won a few before.
"Okay, since you don't want to play landlords, let's play something else, how about playing mahjong?"
Tang Qi asked the three of them expectantly.
Liu Che was puzzled: "What is this mahjong?" Why hit it? ”
"I ......"
Tang Qi was almost so depressed that he vomited blood.
That's overdoing this!
Mahjong is the quintessence of the country, you act and act, you can't forget the quintessence!
Tang Qi wanted to complain about the three of them, but in order to be entertained, he still said patiently: "Mahjong is an entertainment game, which can be played by four people, and the rules of play are very interesting!" ”
Liu Che asked with great interest, "Can you talk about the specific rules?" ”
