Chapter 573: Rogue General
"I saw that something was wrong with her before, why did you say that those people followed her so desperately, it turned out that they wanted to restore the previous dynasty? They don't want to think about what status we have now, and they dare to have such arrogant ideas. ”
Zhang Mingshan was very embarrassed, and Xue Rong was quietly drinking tea on the side, but the joy in his heart was already showing on his face.
"You see that Jiang Ruanyan will also be executed soon, and before that, these assets of the Heart Yuan Pavilion will be auctioned, hahaha, he was finally defeated by us."
There's nothing cheaper than picking up someone else's stuff for nothing.
As the minister of the court, Xue Rong got the news early in the morning, although it was an auction, but as the asset of the sinner of the previous dynasty, it must be from a low price.
Open the one that is so cheap that ordinary people can afford it, and it's easy for them, rich people, to buy a store as big as Xinyuan Pavilion.
This is also thanks to Jiang Ruanyan's identity in the previous dynasty, otherwise, if it was a random rich man who was arrested and locked up, these parents would not all have to be filled into the treasury.
For Xue Rong, it is not that they can't get it into the treasury, it's just one more formality.
Zhang Mingshan hurriedly said again this time.
"Don't worry, no matter who buys it in the end, these will all come back to us after all."
Zhang Mingshan was confident, "I have already greeted Lord Wang of the household department, and we will know how much it will enter the treasury when the time comes." ”
The king of the household department manages the resources of the middle and important ones, so he is best at judging the situation in the court.
As soon as Jiang Ruanyan's power arrived, he immediately understood who he should turn to.
Therefore, when Zhang Mingshan went to discuss with him, he immediately recognized the current situation, and the two quickly got along.
"Just do it." Xue Rong lazily put down the teacup.
The two of them had been thinking about Jiang Ruanyan's assets for a long time.
Seeing that after Jiang Ruanyan made so much money, he donated it to the victims and the poor without any return, which was simply a waste in their eyes.
"Look at her desperate donation of money to those poor people before, she is simply destroying what we have achieved for so long." Zhang Mingshan began to curse.
She didn't want to think that if everyone became rich, who would earn money, and everyone was at the same level, then who would work hard? If that's the case, then we're done! ”
Xue Rong didn't speak, their set of theories did sound very inhumane, and if they said it in the public court, they would definitely be scolded by the emperor.
But in fact, the emperor is also doing this.
He deliberately wants to widen the gap between the rich and the poor, in order to let Tianlun have a better development, but there are always some people who want to be charity and be good people.
It's just a matter of doing charity for people in a few small places.
But if Jiang Ruanyan has the financial and material resources to do charity, it is very likely to destroy the gap between the rich and the poor that they worked so hard to maintain before, which is why these people hate her so much.
Besides, she didn't want to think about what those lazy people were doing with it. It will only be a waste of food, it is better to gather and send it to the front. ”
Zhang Mingshan said that he was full of righteous indignation.
"That's a good point!" The two of them were celebrating enthusiastically, and the next second they were stupefied by the sudden sound outside the door.
The voice seemed a little unfamiliar, not like their own voice, but the familiar sense of fear made them feel as if they knew this person.
Until they saw Guan Qinchao coming in from the corner outside the door.
Guan Qinchao has been practicing martial arts and swords with his family since he was a child, and he is burly, much heavier than their ordinary ministers.
At this time, they were wearing a suit of armor, and the two civil servants in the room looked so vulnerable.
What's more, Guan Qin Chao still has a servant of the Xue Rong family in his hand.
"I'm sorry, Lord Xue, your servant was supposed to come to report, but unfortunately he ran too slowly, so I thought I would bring him to report to you, anyway, I was going to see you."
Guan Qin Chao didn't treat himself as an outsider, he threw the servant on the ground, and the man knelt tremblingly, not knowing what to do.
Xue Rong knew that this servant couldn't beat Qin Chao, so he had no choice but to be carried like this, but he was still very angry.
My house was broken into like this, but I can't lose my temper yet!
Guan Qinchao watched the man kneeling on the ground, and he couldn't say a word for a long time, so he got impatient and kicked him.
"Aren't you going to report? Tell me about it! ”
The man's legs were weak with fright, and he could have stood and spoke, but now he could only kneel, "Old, master, General Guan Qin Chaoguan is here, and he said that he wants to come to see you." ”
"Alright, it's none of your business, let's get ready to go down."
After he finished speaking, Guan Qin Chao unceremoniously picked him up, forcibly turned around, pushed him again, and directly pushed him out of the door.
All these operations were like being at home, Xue Rong saw all this in his eyes, but did not speak, just silently took another sip of tea.
Zhang Mingshan couldn't stand it anymore from the side, and stood up angrily, "General Guan, you are inevitably too much, although you have the emperor's decree and are also a first-class general in the court, but are you too much?" ”
Zhang Mingshan wanted to say something more, but Xue Rong raised his hand to signal that he didn't have to say anything more.
What's the use of it? Didn't Guan Qin Chao come here on purpose to give them a horse?
He is a first-class general in the court, and he has won many battles for the emperor, so naturally even the emperor has to give him three points.
What is the point of breaking into the homes of these ministers at will?
"I heard before that Master Guan had arrived in Lincheng and was going to enter Beijing, but I didn't expect it to arrive so soon, General Guan was tired and hard all the way."
Xue Rong tried his best to be polite.
Guan Qin Chao didn't care, he took off his cloak directly, handed it to the little soldier behind, and then found a place to sit down comfortably.
"It's okay, I'm used to it."
"Then why did the general come to my house late at night?"
Xue Rong asked again.
"It's nothing, isn't it tired? Thinking that your home is closer, I will come to your house to rest first. ”
Zhang Mingshan gritted his teeth angrily, this was clearly a hooligan, but Xue Rong was still so respectful to him.
"Master Zhang, don't worry, wait for me to rest and drink tea, and then talk to you about business."
Guan Qinchao also saw that Zhang Mingshan next to him was quite unkind to see him, but the more Zhang Mingshan didn't want to see him, the more he wanted to be so leisurely and lazy.
Anyway, Zhang Mingshan can't help him.
The person below brought a cup of tea, his hands kept trembling, this looked at Qin Chaole, the servant below hurriedly poured him tea, and fled as soon as he slipped away.
Guan Qin Chao didn't forget to joke, "The people in Lord Xue's mansion are really interesting, they all look like men, but they are as bold as a girl." ”
This made Zhang Mingshan, who was next to him, even worse when he heard it.
Guan Qin Chao turned around, "Oh, I forgot that Master Zhang is still here, Lord Zhang, don't take it to heart, I'm not talking about you." ”
The explanation that there is no silver here is even more infuriating.
Guan Qin Chao didn't care, took a sip of tea and began to talk about her comfortably.
"Master Xue, I won't beat around the bush, this time I'm here for one purpose, to get military salaries." Guan Qinchao said simply.
"The water is stopped, Jiang Ruanyan's assets are going to be auctioned?" These words immediately made Xue Rong and Zhang Mingshan's hearts tighten.
They are the number one in the court, of course, they know very well that this Guan Qin Chao has always praised Jiang Soft's style before.
As a soldier, he doesn't flatter so much, and his appreciation is naturally admiration from the heart.
But now Jiang Ruanyan has become a sinner of the former dynasty and is locked up in a dungeon, and her assets are about to be auctioned off in the blink of an eye.
And Guan Qinchao is here, as if he has won the battle, looking forward to this auction like them, which is a little too strange.
The two of them immediately raised their vigilance.
Xue Rong said unhurriedly, "This is indeed the case." ”
"So, that's what I'm here for today."
Guan Qin Chao put Xue Rong's exquisite teacup on the table casually as if he had put down a wine bowl, making a loud and piercing sound.
"Then, do you want the two adults to take the younger brother to earn money together? The younger brother has no other thoughts, and the money he earns is not for himself, but for the brothers on the front line. ”
When Zhang Mingshan heard it, he only thought it was funny, is this Qin Chao talking about a dream? correct
Hou Xue Rong just smiled, and his emotions were not revealed at all.
"General Guan laughed, which turn of us to intervene in this matter, you overestimate us too much."
Guan Qin Chao raised his feet high and put them on the chair, as if he was sitting in the barracks.
"Lord Xue, don't be modest, who in this capital doesn't know the status of the two of you? Even I, who has been at the border all the year round, know that the things in the capital are looking for you two, yes. ”
Zhang Mingshan saw the opportunity and interjected, "But this time the matter is in the hands of Lord Wang of the household department, what ideas do you have to find him." ”
Guan Qinchao still had a smiling face, "I know that this matter is under the management of the household department, but isn't Lord Wang of the household department also reporting to the two of you?" So I'm just going to come to you two. ”
He had a skin-like smile on his face, but his mind was spinning fast.
Guan Qinchao looked at the two and didn't plan to be honest with each other, so he said directly.
"I'm not afraid that the two adults will laugh at me, it's just a rough person who fights with soldiers who doesn't understand too much, but I know how to act honestly."
He paused for a moment, "I also want to give Tianlun a stable environment this time, so that all the adults in the capital don't have to worry about foreign invasions, so I also ask the two adults to help me." ”
It's a help, but it's all a threat.
Xue Rong and Zhang Mingshan both knew that this time they had really met a scoundrel.
And in the face of the same tricks, I believe that the emperor has no way to deal with it, after all, the matter of leading troops to fight is not easy to delay.
