Wu Song was taken into the study of Xu En, the magistrate. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info This was the first time he walked into Xu En's study.

Generally speaking, the study is a very private place, and if it is not a particularly close person, Xu En will certainly not meet here.

Under the light, Xu En sat behind a desk, his face was haggard and gloomy, and the whole person looked tired and old.

At this time, he was not wearing a hat, and the white hair on his head was also exposed, which made people feel that the old man of the county who was usually in Qinghe County was just a bad old man.

Perhaps, this is his truest face?

Wu Song was very surprised, and at the same time felt relieved in his heart, after all, Xu En was safe and sound. Hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Xu En looked at Wu Song, a smile appeared on his face, but he looked even older and haggard, as if he was a plastic man who had suddenly been drained of his energy.

After Wu Song saluted, Xu En said lightly in a very tired voice: "That one was not an assassin just now!" ”

Wu Song was taken aback.

In this way, Xu En actually knew that a man in black had broken into his mansion just now. He forcibly repelled the officers who had arrived, just because he knew that the man in black was not an assassin.

Wu Song just looked at Xu En in surprise and didn't speak. He knew that since Xu En had called him to such a private place, he must have told him something that outsiders didn't know.

Sure enough, Xu En then said lightly, "That's a secret envoy sent by the Prime Minister!" ”

Wu Song had never heard of the term "public minister", not in his previous life or in this life, and asked: "Please forgive Wu Er for being stupid, dare to ask who the public minister is?" ”

Xu En was stunned for a moment, as if surprised that Wu Song didn't even know who the prime minister was. However, after thinking about it, Wu Song was originally a countryman, and he didn't know if this was normal, so he smiled and explained: "The prime minister is to shoot Lord Cai Jingcai at the right servant!" ”

Wu Song's whole body was shocked. Although his historical knowledge is not very rich, after all, he is also a person who has read a little "Water Margin" intermittently, and naturally knows the weight of Cai Jing in this era.

remembers that in the previous life "Water Margin", as a representative of the big corrupt officials in the court, the most famous seem to be Gao Yu and Tong Guan; However, the most cunning person who is really hidden behind the scenes is this Cai Jing!

This is a famous traitor in history!

Then, Wu Song suddenly remembered that he had gone to Hangzhou to play in his previous life. I remember that by the West Lake in Hangzhou, there is a tomb of Wu Song.

It is said that the Wu Song buried in this tomb is not the Wu Song written in "Water Margin", that is to say, he is not the current one. But the reason why that Wu Song is remembered and praised by future generations is because that Wu Song once assassinated Cai Jing's son, Cai Jun, who was the prefect of Hangzhou at the time!

So, does Wu Song, who assassinated Cai Jun in Hangzhou, really have nothing to do with him now?

In "Water Margin", Wu Song rarely seems to have a direct relationship with Cai Jing. But now, he almost caught the secret envoy sent by Cai Jing.

In Wu Song's view, this Xu En may be a rare Qing official in this era, why, he has a secret connection with the traitor Cai Jing?

What Xu En said next surprised Wu Song even more. Seeing that Wu Song seemed to be surprised, Xu En smiled slightly again and said, "Lord Cai is the Bole of this official, just as this official is also your Bole." This official can come out of Qinghe, that is, the prime minister personally arranged it! ”

Wu was both surprised and disappointed. Because, if Xu En is actually Cai Jing's cronies, then Cai Jing is a big traitor and a corrupt official, and Xu En is afraid that it will not be much better. Xu En's practice of punishing corrupt officials in the yamen may indeed be just excluding dissidents and monopolizing power, not because of how honest he is!

If Xu En is really a corrupt official who is inconsistent with his appearance, hypocrisy and cunning, then should Wu Song continue to work under him?

Wu Song didn't have time to think about this question, but he instinctively blurted out and said to Xu En: "It is rumored that this Cai Jing is a first-class traitor throughout the ages, how can you be in a group with him?" ”

This sentence is quite straightforward, bold, and abrupt. Who called him Wu Song? is inconsistent from the outside and the inside, and it is not his character to say things against his will.

Xu En was surprised, his face suddenly changed, he slapped the table hard, and scolded angrily: "Bold! Nonsense! ”

Wu Song's expression remained unchanged, and he looked at him calmly, without flinching at all.

Xu En looked at Wu Song with a stern expression, looking furious, and he was originally old and haggard, but he suddenly looked quite powerful again. However, he looked at Wu Song for a moment, and suddenly restrained his anger again, sat back in his chair, and said lightly: "Duke Zhou is afraid of rumors, when Corporal Wang Mang Lixian. If he died at that time, who knows if he is loyal through the ages? You're just a country kid, you know what! ”

Wu Song wanted to tell him that Cai Jing was an out-and-out extra-large traitor in history, and that was an ironclad fact written in the history books. Of course, it is impossible for Xu En to believe this.

Listening to the meaning of Xu En's words, he seemed to be defending Cai Jing, thinking that Cai Jing was not only not a traitor, but might even be a great loyal minister. But, is this possible?

From ancient times: "If you are clumsy, if you are treacherous, if you are loyal." "I remember that in the book of my previous life, Cai Jing, who was a super-large traitor and a corrupt official, was also very well hidden, which not only made the emperor very fond of him, but also made the heroes of Liangshan hate Gao Yu and Tong Guan far more than they did for him. So, was Xu En also deceived by him?

If Xu En was only deceived by Cai Jing, then, although he was promoted by Cai Jing, it may just be that Cai Jing wanted to use him, and he himself is very likely not to be really with Cai Jing, but indeed a clean official.

Wu Song looked at Xu En's old and tired appearance, and it was indeed difficult to imagine that such an old man, who only dealt with corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the yamen during the day, and also had the grace of knowing himself, would be the minions of the traitorous minister Cai Jing and a corrupt official who was deeply hidden.

Xu En sat in his chair, looking even more haggard and tired. However, he only sighed for a moment, and his expression slowly changed again. A smile of relief appeared on his face again, as if he had not been angry at all just now.

He looked at Wu Song's eyes, and gradually became more and more gentle, as if Fang Cai was not angry at all because Wu Song dared to say that Cai Jing was a traitor, but appreciated Wu Song even more.
