Chapter 12: Zhaowen
In the evening of the Hanxue Pavilion, the glow plated the Hanxue Pavilion with a layer of golden light, which added a bit of magnificence to the already carved beams and paintings. The warm glow shined through the window, spilling straight into the room, like a floor full of broken gold, Lou Wange watched the glow crawl straight from the window edge to the table, and turned his head to stare at the table full of food waiting, he didn't do it for a long time, and after a while, Hongsheng and Greendye pushed the door in, and Green's hand was holding Zhaowen, who had already fainted.
Glancing at them, and then at the person in Lu Ran's hand, Lou Wange finally picked up the chopsticks and said with a long sigh of relief: "Let's eat first." ”
After dinner, the dishes and chopsticks were removed, Lou Wange rinsed her mouth, and asked Hongsheng: "You checked Sikong Mansion today, did you find anything?" ”
"Yes, Lord Sikong Fu Luo has a bad reputation in the imperial capital, and he often overcollects taxes, causing the people to complain. and his eldest daughter, Luo Shuangshuang, is the one we met, who often bullies others, and the only son is a fool. Anyway, whether it is the people or the court, they don't like them very much. ”
Lou Wange was puzzled: "In this case, why didn't the people in the court report them and deal with them, and let them oppress the people." Hongsheng pinched his chin and said, "There are many officials who have reported these things, but there is no evidence." ”
"No evidence?" Lou Wange was even more puzzled, "How could it be, there should be a detailed account of tax payment on the Sikong Mansion, wouldn't it be better to ask someone to steal the account." ”
Hongsheng waved his hand: "I don't know about this." ”
Lou Wange pondered for a moment, and instructed Hong Sheng: "Hong Sheng, you send someone to Sikong Mansion tonight to investigate, be careful, I suspect that there are cats in Sikong Mansion." ”
"Hmm." Hongsheng nodded.
Lou Wange then turned to Zhaowen, who was unconscious, and said to Lu Ran: "Wake him up." Midori pushed the fainted Zhaowen vigorously while responding, Zhaowen was suddenly awakened, and his memory was still stuck in the time when he was knocked unconscious: "Who, who?" ”
"Zhaowen, right, how are you doing in the Sili Mansion?" Lou Wange squatted in front of him and stared at him.
Zhaowen's eyes flashed, and he was really confused: "You are-"
"What do you say?" Lou Wange stood up, sat on the chair and looked at his nails and said, "I'm afraid Lord Zhaowen has forgotten the days when he was full of ambition and was not taken seriously." ”
He is a smart person, as soon as he reacted when he heard this, he immediately knelt down and kowtowed repeatedly: "Beiyue Zhuge , you are Beiyue Zhuge , the small ones are all given by you now, the small ones will not forget, you are the big benefactor of the small ones, the big benefactors." ”
Lou Wange helped him up: "Since you know that I am your great benefactor, then I need you to help me do something now, are you willing?" ”
Zhaowen said humbly: "Yes, Engong's business is a small matter, if there is anything, the small one must help Engong." ”
"Okay, then I'll say it bluntly, you are now a celebrity in front of Lord Si Li, and it is not difficult to blow the wind in Lord Si Li's ear and let him give up the eldest prince." Lou Wange picked up the teacup next to her and took a sip of tea
"This ......" Zhaowen hesitated: "Lord Si Li has always taken a fancy to the eldest prince and wants to change his opinion, but he is afraid of ......"
Lou Wange smiled: "Oh, is it? You should know the true attitude of the celebrant, you should go and talk to the celebrant, the celebrant is a person who understands and will make the right choice. ”
Zhaowen frowned slightly, and reluctantly agreed: "Okay, try the little one." ”
"Also, I want you to do something for me." Lou Wange's eyes sank, and he pulled out the sword on the side and slashed at his arm.
"Hiss-" Zhaowen was pained: "Well, what is Engong doing." Lou Wange shrugged: "Help you, you won't understand, right?"
Zhaowen covered his arm, blessed Lou Wange, and walked towards the door, Lou Wange reminded behind: "Remember, do as I say, and also, don't reveal to anyone that you have seen me and come to me, otherwise, the next sword will not be drawn in your hand." If it happens, it will be your good in the future. ”
As soon as Zhaowen left, Midori came over: "Sister, how can you be sure that Zhaowen can help us." ”
Lou Wange chuckled: "Have you forgotten how we picked the destined people to give the tips, from words and actions, we observed everyone who came to the Cold Snow Pavilion for a month, and selected the most reliable and worthy of help." Zhaowen is ambitious, and he is a bit ruthless, so he is a usable person. I trust him to do what I have to do. ”
Midori nodded, and said, "And Lord Si Li, how could he give up the Great Prince because of Zhaowen?" ”
Lou Wange patted his green head and walked to the window, looking at the brilliant lights of the imperial capital: "Now the situation in the court is a bit of the world, Jingzhong has the support of the Sibing Mansion, the six princes have the support of the Si Xing Mansion and the Sima Mansion, and the five princes have the support of Si Shi and Jing Wengong. ”
"Oh-" Midori nodded knowingly.
