Chapter 137: The Mighty Ma Family
Zhu Houzhao stroked back and forth among the piles of precious porcelain in the room, and his mouth was full of admiration.
"This is from the former Song Dynasty official kiln, right? It's worth 1,800 silver, isn't it? ”
"Xie Wu, Xie Wu... Come and see... This is Zhang Zeduan's Qingming Riverside Map, right? Zhu Houzhao shouted urgently.
Xie Zhi put down a piece of Ru kiln porcelain in his hand, walked to Zhu Houzhao's side, looked at the calligraphy and painting carefully, and said, "Song Huizong has a double dragon small seal..."
After Xie Zhi looked at it for a long time, Zhu Houzhao asked, "Is this Qingming Shanghe picture true or false?" ”
Xie Zhi doesn't have the ability to identify antiquities, how can he know the authenticity of the fake.
Xie Zhi has always had one thing to say, and after a moment of silence, he said: "I don't know, this thing is still handed to Your Majesty, please ask Your Majesty to find a knowledgeable person in the court to identify it." ”
The Qingming Riverside Picture is definitely a heavyweight thing, and putting it in private hands will not only bring disaster, but most importantly, it will not be kept intact.
Only by putting it in the royal family is the safest way.
Zhu Houzhao looked distressed, and finally nodded in agreement.
After Xie Zhi took the Qingming Shanghe map, he directly called He Liang and said, "It is very likely that Gonggong Xiao has not left Datong Mansion yet, you immediately hand over this thing to him and ask him to present it to Your Majesty." ”
It is better to hand over this thing to Xiao Jing than Xie Zhi to send someone to the capital in person.
If it's true, and then there are some mistakes, it will be really fatal.
After handing over this matter to He Liang, Xie Zhi and Zhu Houzhao took the lead in leaving the Ma family.
With Wang Shouren here, it is easy to count these things, and it is useless for Xie Zhi to stay here.
Not long after Xie Zhicai returned to Yazhong, a servant of the King of Yunzhong County appeared in Yazhong.
"If Xie Zhi County is convenient, His Royal Highness the King of my county would like to ask Xie Zhi County to come over to talk about it."
I am still grateful to Zhu Chengpalladium, if it weren't for Zhu Chengpalladium's help, he would not have been able to solve the matter in the cloud so quickly.
Until now, it is still Zhu Chengpalladium's people who are guarding the cell.
Xie Zhi didn't think too much about it, and replied briskly: "It's not inconvenient, this county happens to be free again." ”
Before Zhu Houzhao was about to leave, he told Zhu Houzhao again: "Zhu Zhubo saw that there was anything else in the county, so he started to sort it out." ”
Before Zhu Houzhao could respond, the servant said again: "His Royal Highness the King of My County said that if Wang County Cheng and they are free, they can also go together." ”
Xie Zhi didn't wait for Zhu Houzhao to answer, and said, "Zhu Zhubo still has something, right?" ”
It's no problem for Wang Shouren to go together, but if Zhu Houzhao goes, he will be recognized by Zhu Chengpalladium, and it will not be good from time to time.
Xie Zhi cast a look at him, Zhu Houzhao looked reluctant, gritted his teeth and said, "There is something to deal with." ”
Soon, Xie Zhi appeared in the county king's mansion with the servant.
Zhu Chengpalladium's mansion is not as luxurious as the Ma family, but it is not bad.
With the title of county king, he doesn't have much ambition, and it's not a problem to be free for a lifetime.
Xie Zhi arrived at the county king's mansion and was directly invited to the main hall.
Zhu Chengpalladium was already waiting here, and when he saw Xie Zhi, he hurriedly got up to greet him: "Xie Zhixian, are you here?" Originally, this king should not have had more contact with Xie Zhixian, but this king thought about it, and this king should still invite Xie Zhixian to come, and he replied thank you to Zhixian. ”
After brewing for a long time, Zhu Chengpalladium finally got to the point, and said: "This king has received His Majesty's will, His Majesty praised this king for borrowing a few people from Xie Zhi County, and also rewarded a hundred gold, Xie Zhi County must also know that this king's position is quite embarrassing, not to mention that it is such a small county king as this king, even if it is a prince who is serious, it is difficult to be valued by the imperial court, if it is not for Xie Zhixian and His Majesty to mention, how can Your Majesty know a mere king of Yunzhong County." ”
Zhu Chengpalladium's words are true, the twenty-sixth son of the old Zhu may not be able to remember who his grandchildren are, let alone after five or six generations.
Emperor Hongzhi doesn't even remember the children of his brothers, let alone a county king who is about to come out of five suits.
Xie Zhi pulled up a smile and said with a slight smile: "His Royal Highness the King of the County is very helpful to the minister, and the minister wants to report to His Majesty truthfully." ”
After greeting for a long time, Xie Zhi was finally invited to the table by Zhu Chengpalladium.
There are all kinds of chicken, duck and fish on the table, which is extremely rich.
It can be seen that Zhu Chengpalladium has put his heart into this meal.
Xie Zhi took the lead in picking up the wine glass and said, "Your Highness, in the future, the ministers will be in the clouds and will be taken care of by Your Highness, and the ministers will do it first." ”
After a glass of wine, Xie Zhi grabbed his chopsticks and began to feast.
"Your Highness don't be weird, the minister is welcome, His Royal Highness doesn't know, since he arrested the Ma family and controlled some of the errand officers in the yazhong, the normal operation of the yazhong has been paralyzed, and the meals in the past few days are all in charge of Bo'an, the taste is good, but it is too light."
Zhu Chengpalladium was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Xie Zhixian is at his own convenience." ”
As he spoke, he instructed the people below: "Go and prepare a table of wine and food to send to the county office." ”
Xie Zhi didn't refuse, he ate well, he couldn't let Zhu Houzhao still be hungry.
Xie Zhi didn't care to talk to Zhu Chengpan, and only wiped out the food on the table one by one.
After eating half of the food on the table, he touched his stomach and said with satisfaction: "Thank you Your Highness for your hospitality today..."
After eating wine and food, Xie Zhi did not stay long in Zhu Chengpalladium.
When he was about to say goodbye, Zhu Chengpalladium beckoned a person not far away to come to him and introduced: "This is the king's cook, and the king can't help with other things, so the cook will borrow Xie Zhixian for a few days, and then return it to the king when the county government can operate normally." ”
There is still a difference between giving and borrowing.
After all, if one party subjectively has a close relationship with the prince of the feudal domain, it will be taboo.
Zhu Chengpalladium knew this truth, Xie Zhi didn't say much, and directly thanked him: "Then thank Your Highness." ”
When Xie Zhi returned to the county government with the cook, Zhu Chengpalladium had already sent someone to deliver the food, and Zhu Houzhao and the others had already eaten half of it.
Xie Zhicai sent the cook to the back kitchen, and Zhu Houzhao asked, "Xie Wu, do you eat?" Why don't you eat some in one piece? ”
Xie Zhi waved his hand and said: "After eating, I knew that you hadn't eaten well in the past few days, so I asked the king of Yunzhong County to send him a table, did that person see it just now?" The kitchen borrowed by the king of Yunzhong County, we don't have to worry about eating and drinking in the future. ”
Several people had oily hands and satisfied smiles on their lips.
People are iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry.
In this way, before the matter in the cloud is resolved, they will have to die.
After eating, Wang Shouren led Tang Yin and Xu Jing to start the continued registration and verification of the Ma family's property.
In the evening of the same day, Xiao Jing returned to Beijing with the Qingming Shanghe map handed over by He Liang.
As soon as he returned to Beijing, he went to see Emperor Hongzhi.
When he saw Emperor Hongzhi, he didn't bother to report other news, so he directly handed over the Qingming Shanghe map.
After all, Xiao Jing is also a cultural person, and he cares a lot about these things.
"Your Majesty, this is the Qingming Shanghe map of the former Song Dynasty Zhang Zeduan, which was searched by Xie Zhixian from the Ma family, whether it is true or false Xie Zhixian is not sure, please find someone to identify it."
At this time, information was not as developed as in later generations, and even if they had not seen the real thing, most people knew what it looked like.
At this time, people have only heard about it, and as for the content, there will be no general outline at all.
When Emperor Hongzhi heard that it was the Qingming Shanghe map, he immediately came to the spirit and said, "Is it?" Come, open it, and I'll see. ”
Xiao Jing beckoned two waiters, one of whom pulled a scroll, and slowly presented a picture scroll of the prosperity of the former Song Dynasty Bianliang in front of Emperor Hongzhi.
Emperor Hongzhi carefully examined every detail, marveling at the artist's skill, and wondering whether the scroll was real or fake.
"Xiao Banban, do you say this is true or false?"
Xiao Jing hesitated for a long time, then said with a smile: "How can a slave have that ability to judge." ”
Emperor Hongzhi smiled and ordered the scroll to be put away.
Immediately, he said: "Li Dongyang is quite accomplished in calligraphy and painting, announce him to come, call Xie Qian and Liu Jian together, this thing was presented by the Xie family, it is true, I will open their eyes, it can be regarded as I have returned the favor of the Xie family, if it is fake, it will not be laughed at on my head." ”
Who is Emperor Hongzhi is an honest man, this is too chicken thief, right?
If it's true, just feasting your eyes can be regarded as repaying Xie Zhi's big favor.
