Verse 70: The King of Sycophants
Guan Yan's reputation has undergone earth-shaking changes, but Guan Yan's life has not changed, he has nothing to do in the general's mansion every day, why do he occasionally come in and out of ideas, and practice "Taiping Technique" in his spare time, and he has a very relaxed and comfortable life. However, in order to avoid criticism, Guan Yan did not dare to go back to the general's mansion.
In the blink of an eye, a month has passed. On this day, Guan Yan was found by He Jin early in the morning, Guan Yan thought that He Jin wanted to ask some things, so he casually dressed up and walked to He Jin's study.
He Jin was still sitting on the main seat, playing with a jade artifact. Although there are hundreds of books that are very precious in this era, these books are just decorations for He Jin, who was born as a butcher, and he has never read them.
Guan Yan's footsteps attracted He Jin's attention, He Jin put down the jade with a smile, stood up and said, "Wende is here." ”
Guan Yan saluted: "I don't know what the general called me?" ”
He Jin didn't speak, slowly walked to the corner of the study, bent over and opened the two large boxes placed there.
As soon as the box was opened, the jewels immediately filled the entire study, and the two large boxes were stuffed with gold, silver and jade, which can be said to be priceless!
Guan Yan stepped forward, looked at the two boxes of treasures, and sighed in his mouth: "General, this is ......"
He Jin replied: "Didn't Wende say a month ago that he wanted to befriend the tigers? These two boxes of jewels are two pieces of meat for the tiger! ”
That's it! Guan Yan thought in his heart, He Jin didn't mention this matter for a month, and Guan Yan thought that He Jin was just dealing with Guan Yan on the field at that time, and he didn't really agree with Guan Yan. Unexpectedly, today He Jin really prepared two boxes of jewelry, ready to make friends with the ten permanent attendants.
In fact, although He Jin agreed with Guan Yan's idea of driving the tiger and devouring the wolf, he did not want to deliberately make friends with the ten permanent servants, but this month Guan Yan's name of "Fu Han" resounded in Luoyang City, and even Emperor Ling asked when he went to court, and said when he would summon Guan Yan.
He Jin, a person who ascended to the sky from the lower strata, has already suffered the loss of his reputation, and he doesn't know how many ministers of the DPRK and China call him "the butcher" behind their backs.
So, He Jin paid attention to Guan Yan, remembering Guan Yan's strategy a month ago, the more He Jin thought about it, the more reasonable it became, and immediately asked people to prepare two boxes of treasures overnight, ready to let Guan Yan deal with it today.
When Guan Yan heard this, he hurriedly replied: "The general is wise! ”
He Jin smiled: "Wende, this matter will be handed over to you!" ”
This sentence made Guan Yan secretly surprised: He Jin believes in me like this?
Guan Yan saluted: "If the subordinate obeys the order, he will live up to the high expectations of the general!" ”
He Jin smiled and nodded, walked back to the main seat and sat down, and played with the jade seriously.
Guan Yan glanced at it and said softly: "The lower official retires!" With that, Guan Yan slowly exited the study and closed the door.
Three hours later, in a palatial study, an ordinary old man was sitting on a large tiger skin chair, and he saw that his eyes were slightly closed, and his face was pale and beardless. You can't tell from anywhere that this emaciated old man is the head of the ten permanent servants who are in power - Zhang Rang!
Guan Yan sat respectfully on the side, with a large box beside him.
After a while, Zhang Rang opened his eyes slightly, squinted at Guan Yan, and then looked at the big box next to him, and said softly, "What is Lord Guan's visit today?" ”
Finally spoke, Guan Yan, who was sitting stiffly on his back, stood up and saluted Zhang Rang and said, "In the name of the general, Yan has come to visit Grandpa Zhang!" ”
"General?" Zhang Rang sneered, sounding a little creepy.
"How dare you bother the general to visit!" Zhang Rang Yin and Yang said something weirdly, closed his eyes again, and there was a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
At the beginning, when the daughter of the He family, that is, the current Empress He entered the palace, she was not loved by Emperor Ling, and Mrs. He scattered all her wealth, half of them befriended celebrities, and half of them were sent to the ten permanent servants, of which Zhang Rang got a lot.
But Zhang Rang did not take the He family's money in vain, and the ten permanent servants said all the good things in front of the Lingdi for the daughter of the He family, and tried their best to finally make the Lingdi gradually love the daughter of the He family; Then the daughter of the He family gave birth to a son, and the mother was expensive by virtue of the son, coupled with the favor of the Emperor Ling, so she sat on the throne of the queen.
Zhang Rang later took advantage of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to speak in front of Emperor Ling, and helped He Jin sit in the position of a general, and it can be said that the glory of the He family is deeply branded with the seal of the Ten Standing Servants.
But as the tide rises, He Jin has come into contact with more and more celebrities, and he has paid more and more attention to his reputation. The Ten Standing Servants can be said to be notorious, and under the hints of some people, intentionally or unintentionally, He Jin subconsciously separated the boundary from the Ten Standing Attendants, and the gap between the two was also born.
Guan Yan didn't know about these things, but listening to Zhang Rang's tone, he felt that something was wrong.
Guan Yan said with a strong face: "Why did Gonggong Zhang say this? The general often said that Gonggong Zhang's kindness was good, so today he sent a special officer to visit Gonggong Zhang! ”
Who is Zhang Rang? How could he be fooled by Guan Yan's words?
Zhang Rang Xianmu sneered and glanced at Guan Yan, Guan Yan shuddered when he was glanced at, and hurriedly lowered his head to make a respectful gesture.
Guan Yan looked at the big box next to him, hurriedly stepped forward, opened the box and said, "This is the general's filial piety to Father-in-law Zhang." ”
As soon as the box was opened, the color of gold and silver suddenly overflowed, and it was slightly dazzling in the dim study.
Zhang Rang's eyes were stimulated by the luster of the jewelry, and he frowned and closed his eyes, raising his right hand to block it.
After a while, Zhang Rang opened his eyes slightly, looked at the box of jewels between his fingers, and a smile was hurriedly raised at the corner of his mouth.
"Sit down and talk!" After getting used to it, Zhang Rang put down his arm and said to Guan Yan.
Guan Yan breathed a sigh of amnesty, bowed slightly, and sat aside.
Zhang Rang couldn't help but glance at the boxes full of jewels, and the smile on his face also unfolded with the wrinkles formed over the years: "Lord Guan, I heard that the name of 'Fu Han' has been spread in Luoyang City recently, presumably Lord Guan must have great talents!" ”
"Don't dare, don't dare, Father-in-law Zhang can call me 'Wende', who dares to call me 'adult' in front of my father-in-law?" Guan Yan said busily.
Zhang Rang is very comfortable, yes, I, Zhang Rang, am not an official, but which official in the world is not my final say? I'm not an official, but I'm bigger than the three princes!
Zhang Rang smiled with satisfaction: "Wende can speak, why do you appreciate talents like you!" ”
Looking at Zhang Rang's face, Guan Yan felt a trace of disgust in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face and continued: "As for the legend of Luoyang's 'Fu Han', it is falsely praised, if the Han family is revived, it is really the work of Zhang Gonggong!" After saying this, Guan Yan sighed secretly in his heart, when did he become so good at sycophancy?
