Chapter 182: Entering Shu (II)
It is difficult to go to Shu and it is difficult to go to the sky.
From Banzhou into Shu, it is another situation, go north to Luzhou Yugan to cross the Yangtze River, and have been waiting for the Tang Hope to meet here, enter the Tuojiang River against the current to the north, now the Tuojiang River is slow, to the rainy season, it will be extremely difficult to go upstream.
More than 400 miles of waterway, to Jianzhou, only more than 100 miles away from Yizhou Chengdu Mansion.
Lu Ning and the others landed on the shore and lived in a newly purchased mansion that Tang Wang had purchased not long ago.
……
The new mansion is not bad, but as a Qi businessman who is attached to Tang Wang, Tang Wang's wife and two concubines live in the back house, and Lu Ning lives in the East Chamber.
There is a banyan tree in the courtyard, the crown is like a cloud, but the crown is very low, Lu Ning is tall, walking under the canopy, looking up is dense green branches and leaves.
Pacing under the banyan tree, Lu Ning was a little thinking about the four caterpillars, and when he entered Shu, the four caterpillars could only be caged, and they were sent all the way to Bianjing.
The footsteps behind him sounded softly, and a beautiful woman in a red dress walked up, it was Tang Yuniang.
All the way into Shu, passing through the sad place of Luzhou, Tang Yuniang didn't take a second look, let alone show emotions such as reminiscing about the past and sadness, sometimes Lu Ning didn't know what she was thinking.
Before she could say anything, a person walked in at the door of the moon cave in the small courtyard, slightly blessed, with a round face and a brocade robe, which was Tang Wang.
Tang Yuniang bent her knees slightly, and called out delicately: "Uncle! ”
According to the generation, Tang is expected to be her uncle.
Tang Wang coughed dryly, this beautiful niece saw him naturally, and he was a little respectful, but he was a little embarrassed, after all, he once wanted to help Wang Zhaoyuan Wang Shumi, and his niece Yu Cheng did a good thing.
However, now the niece in his clan is the concubine of the merchant of Qi State, and this merchant is sent to Shu by the General Court of Qi State to make friends with important ministers from all walks of life.
Speaking of which, her niece is really a little beauty, she calls herself an uncle, and her bones are crispy, but she fled to the barbarian, as if she was caught by a barbarian and sold to this Qi businessman, but she became a slave-like concubine, which is really a pity.
Tang is expected to lick his lips, if it weren't for the same surname Tang, people would not tolerate it, and he really wanted to taste the taste of this little girl, but he could only think about it in his heart.
If this Qi Guowen shopkeeper knows, he is afraid that the disaster will not be small, this guy usually looks gentle, but one day, what he said after drinking did not suit his heart, and he glared at him, that kind of creepy feeling, until I think about it, the hairs are still standing on end, from that day on, I know that this guy is an extremely terrible person, and he must not be provoked.
The surname Wen is rare, and if you want to come to this Wen shopkeeper, it is a relative of the Wen General Hospital, so it is even more offensive.
"Mr. Wen, tomorrow, Yi Changfu, the head of the princess's mansion, has time to meet with Mr. Wen." Tang Wang smiled, and glanced at Jiao Didi's niece again, this shopkeeper does not shy away from his niece in anything, but he is extremely fond of her.
Lu Ning bowed slightly.
The princess's mansion in Jianzhou lives in Princess Chonghua, and her son is the current Shu State Privy Council, Tongzhongshu Menxia Pingzhang, and Xuanhui Southern Court envoy Yi Zheng.
If you want to talk about power, Yi Shenzheng is more prosperous than Wang Zhaoyuan, and the two of them participate in the government together, which is a bit of a left and right.
Yi Xianzheng's mother, Princess Chonghua, is the sister of Meng Chang, the lord of Shu, and Meng Chang's father's ancestor Meng Zhixiang married Yi Yanzheng's father, Yi Yanpu.
Yi Yan is brave and good at fighting, is the favorite general of Meng Zhixiang, the ancestor of Shu State, has passed away this morning, but it is the princess Chonghua who lives a long life, and retires in this Jianzhou fiefdom.
Tang is expected to scatter all his family wealth, so he came to cling to the Yi family, because Tang Yuniang's affairs were not done well, he naturally did not want to go to Wang Zhaoyuan again, so he set his sights on another important minister, Yi Zheng.
And speaking of which, although Yi Xianzheng's father was a fierce general, he was a gate dog, Yi Xianzheng was extremely greedy for money, and he didn't like to conquer, otherwise, he would have compared himself to Zhuge Liang with iron Ruyi all day long, and Wang Zhaoyuan, who had been claiming that he could take twenty or thirty thousand carved face evil children to the Central Plains, would have already stirred up an incident.
Therefore, it should be easier to make friends with this Yi Zhengzheng than Wang Zhaoyuan.
"Since Mr. Wen thinks there is no problem, the little one will go and prepare tomorrow's snacks." The soup is expected to bow slightly.
Lu Ning smiled, "Okay! Then he said, "Ten taels of gold have brought about this, and you have done a good job." ”
Ten gold, that is, a hundred guan, and when he entered Shu, Lu Ning gave Tang Wang a hundred taels of gold for him to use.
Of course, no matter how much you invest now, you will naturally be able to recover a hundredfold and a thousand times in the future.
"Yes, yes, small has always been, spend less, do more." Soup is expected to laugh.
Lu Ning was helpless, it seemed that this was what he told him after drinking once, but he was learning and selling now.
Tang Wang bowed down to say goodbye, looking at his back, Lu Ning smiled, "By now, he shouldn't have been deceived, right?" ”
"Yi'er's understanding of him, 'er doesn't feel cheating." Tang Yuniang said softly.
Lu Ning nodded, in fact, even if Tang Wang knew that he was the so-called Qi State General Hospital, it would not be good for him to use any conspiracy or even run to report him. There has been no war between Qi and Shu, it is not hostile, and the infiltration of the General Institute of Qi and Culture into Shu can make the two countries hostile, but Tang is expected to not get much benefit, and it will also lay a big curse for the future.
"Daddy, although I have a little eyebrows about befriending Yi Xiang, the Lord of Shu has always trusted the king and thief more, and Yi Xiang only has the grace of his parents, and his prestige in the court is higher. Daddy still has to think about how to move the king and thief in order to achieve the big things planned by Daddy! ”
Oh? Lu Ning looked at Tang Yuniang.
Tang Yuniang bit her red lip, "If Daddy dedicates his son to the king thief, he can be vain and wronged, and Daddy will become the guest of honor of the king thief!" ”
Lu Ning was stunned, this little woman, in order to take revenge, she was really crazy, and she gave up everything.
Moreover, she obviously didn't just want Wang Zhaoyuan's life, but wanted his family to end up desolate.
Otherwise, she pretended to be committed, even if Wang Zhaoyuan was wary at the beginning, after a long time, if she wanted to poison Wang Zhaoyuan, there would definitely be a chance.
Of course, it is indeed difficult to commit to Wang Zhaoyuan without foreign aid, in case of failure, she will not only be bitter in the sea of blood, but also become a laughing stock, become Wang Zhaoyuan's plaything, and Jiuquan will never see her husband again.
But now the little woman's idea is quite good.
I would not force her to do such a thing, but she took the initiative to propose it, and she was willing, which was the fastest way to get to know Wang Zhaoyuan.
only said that the slave girl he bought in the barbarian land, I heard that it was the thing that the king's privy loved and offered it, and there was no flaw.
However, Lu Ning rubbed his nose, and he seemed to have changed a little.
This little woman doesn't think of herself as a human being, but she wants to add fuel to the fire, just to do it faster?
It's not impossible to make friends with Wang Zhaoyuan.
And that guy with great ambitions and talents, it seems that he doesn't need to lobby much, doesn't he always want to go north to the Central Plains?
He is not bragging, but he really thinks that he has this ability, and he belongs to the group that brags and brags about himself.
It's not too difficult to tease him.
"Are you still my concubine!" Lu Ning glared at her, "Don't talk nonsense in the future." ”
When I came to this world, gradually, I didn't bother to do the kind of good people in the values of the later generations, many times it was out of place, that is, the good thoughts in my heart, not only my mother-in-law and mother-in-law did not believe it.
Tang Yuniang was startled, and hurriedly knelt down, "Daddy, son, I don't dare anymore, it's just that Daddy, I like youth and beauty, and I don't have any interest in children, so I was thinking, how can I help Daddy." ”
Lu Ning coughed, before Banzhou came to Shudi, this little woman could naturally see the changes in her relationship with Xiao Guiji and Lan Chan, so she said this.
I didn't bother to pay attention to her, and turned around and went into the house.
