Chapter 507: Jia seems to have come out
After chatting about this, seeing that Jia Rudao had not come out yet, Shi Bin and Jia Ling started to make a small calculation again. I have a bottom in my heart, but Lu Wende, Sai Xishi and Xu Feng are still waiting in the wing, at least let them know the current situation, so Shi Bin and Jia Ling immediately decided to persuade Er Zhuang to help deliver a letter.
Er Zhuang is a dead brain, and it has greatly violated his principles to let Shi Bin come in with Jia Ling, and now it is absolutely impossible for him to leave his post to deliver a letter without permission. Therefore, he refused very firmly, obviously without any consultation. Since Erzhuang, the most suitable person, refused, Shi Bin had no choice but to ask Jiang Wanli, who threw an olive branch to him, for help.
As if he had expected this, Jiang Wanli said very calmly and peacefully that everything would be handed over to his deputy, and said that he was at ease. Since Jiang Wanli was so refreshing, Shi Bin and Jia Ling were naturally even happier, but because they were not familiar with Jiang Wanli's deputy, they told him twice to let Lu Wende and the others relax.
What Shi Bin wants to know most now is Jia Rudao's state before seeing those books and the possible state after reading the books.
So after thanking Jiang Wanli, he got together with Jia Ling to discuss things.
"Madam, I remember that the doorman said that our father tore up a few famous calligraphy and paintings that he liked when he first found out that I was doing this with Lu Wende?" Shi Bin asked.
"Yes, I tore up a few calligraphy and paintings. But that's not the problem, it's that his collection of calligraphy and paintings is very small and all of them are treasures, so absolutely every one of them is priceless. Jia Ling showed some uneasiness and regret when she spoke. Although her eldest lady does not worry about food and clothing, such a loss at home also makes her feel distressed.
I can see what Jia Ling is thinking from the side, Shi Bin doesn't know calligraphy and painting at all, and the shopkeeper who is just a digital concept of money also feels that Jia Yidao's loss this time is not small, and from another aspect, he is angry. Since this is the case, Shi Bin naturally has to find a way to make more preparations before Jia Yidao meets him and Jia Ling, and he can't just rely on the help of those three books and Jiang Wanli.
"Worth a fortune?" Shi Bin groaned. Looking at Jia Ling, who couldn't help nodding and squinting, Shi Bin understood the seriousness of the matter, and immediately said, "Then wouldn't it be better for us to know the change in my father's attitude after seeing the book?" Please also ask Lord Jiang Wanli to help us estimate his reaction after he comes out? ”
Since Jia Ling and Shi Bin thought together, Jia Ling immediately took over the conversation and said, "Then I'll ask first." Before Shi Bin could react, she spoke: "Lord Jiang, can I call you uncle abruptly?" ”
"Why not? I'm very happy to have a heroine like you as my niece! Jiang Wanli smiled, "But you little slippery head shouldn't just come to recognize your uncle." What is there to ask, my good niece? Uncle, I know everything, I have to say everything! Like looking at a monkey who can't jump out of the palm of his hand, Jiang Wanli said with a smile.
Hearing this, knowing that her little trick had been seen through, in order not to be self-defeating, Jia Ling could only say honestly: "May I ask Uncle Jiang, is there a big difference in my father's mood before and after receiving those books?" ”
"Not small." Jiang Wanli looked at Jia Ling and smiled. Seeing Jia Ling's smile, a trace of helplessness flashed in Jiang Wanli's eyes, and he said with a smile: "But you have made a lot of trouble this time, don't expect to rely on a few books to get by." Your father's dignified Huainan two road pacification envoys are not so faint and shrewd. ”
I know that it is impossible to dissipate Jia Nidao's anger with a few books, but how much can be eliminated is better than nothing. Jia Ling immediately glanced at Shi Bin again, Shi Bin understood, and said, "Uncle Jiang, can you tell how much my father-in-law likes those books?" Can you tell us about what it will be like when he comes out? ”
"Hehe, of course you can. Help people to the end and send the Buddha to the west. This will certainly tell you. Your father-in-law's anger has actually disappeared a lot in the past few days, and he is more anxious and helpless, hearing that you are coming is just a revival of the old fire. As for those books, his favorite is "Yangtze Fayan". You can see that he actually left me here and went to taste books alone, which can be seen. So don't worry too much, there isn't much fire in his heart anymore, but you still have to keep a low profile, let him scold, scold enough, I'll intercede, and finally you intercede for yourself. Jiang Wanli said with a smile.
As soon as the words fell, Jia Nidao's voice came from the inner room: "Jiang Wanli, I read the book and it's not bad."
Shi Bin and Jia Ling, who heard this, were overjoyed, knowing that Jiang Wanli's words were right, Jia Rudao really liked those books, and the two of them should be better. Jia Ling saw that a smile was about to appear on her face, but she was suppressed by Shi Bin's glaring reminder.
On the other side, the situation changed suddenly, and as soon as Jia Rudao came out, he saw Jia Ling and Shi Bin, and immediately stopped talking, and the joy on his face turned to anger.
"What are you doing here?" Jia Rudao scolded angrily.
"Father, you asked me to come in!" Jia Ling was wronged and 'cried'.
"He told you to come in, but what about him? I didn't seem to have called him in! Jia Rudao said coldly, and then said in a weird manner: "By the way, I forgot that he is the famous Pingbei Hou." It's as easy as going to the Yuanren territory to follow up with your own back garden, not to mention coming to my old guy! ”
He had never been so squeezed before, Shi Bin couldn't stand it at first, and his face turned red. If he hadn't been told by Jiang Wanli before, he had indeed done something too much, Shi Bin would not have been so calmly squeezed without saying a word for himself. He had already made up his mind to leave everything to Jiang Wanli and Jia Ling to deal with.
Unexpectedly, Shi Bin actually became a stuffy gourd, and stopped talking, Jia Rudao deliberately said again: "Shi Bin, what do you mean this time, do you know how dangerous it is to make things happen?" ”
Seeing Jia Yidao reprimanding Shi Bin so harshly, Jia Ling, the wife, naturally couldn't stand it, in the eyes of her unruly eldest lady, Shi Bin was completely right to do this, so she completely forgot Jiang Wanli's instructions and planned to come out to defend her husband immediately.
But just before she could speak, Jiang Wanli preemptively said, "Master Jia, why do you have such a big temper? What do you have to say, my daughter and son-in-law's family. ”
"Family? If they really saw me, an old man, as a family, they would do such crazy things? is still negotiating with the imperial court, if you want to listen to the edict or not listen to the announcement, aren't you afraid that something will happen to me? Jia Rudao said angrily.
After hearing Jiang Wanli's words, it was like being poured a basin of cold water, Jia Ling remembered Jiang Wanli's previous advice, asking her to shut up, and asking her and Shi Bin to wait for Jia Yidao to finish scolding before defending herself. But Jia Ling was not so obedient, she secretly planned to beat the side drum as well, but she would never talk back.
"You can't say that, young people are young and vigorous, and it is inevitable that they are not thoughtful, haven't you and I been crazy when we were young? What's more, the court has been a little unkind to your son-in-law these times. If I were your son-in-law, even if I didn't listen to the edict or the proclamation, I would do some ridiculous things. Jiang Wanli said very seriously.
I thought that Li Zong had not done enough to be kind these few times, but now that Jiang Wanli was reconciled like this, Jia Rudao was also a little angry, but obviously he still didn't plan to let Shi Bin and Jia Ling go like this, and his face was still full of anger, as if he was thinking about something. Of course, Jia Yidao couldn't be allowed to come up with a way to punish Shi Bin and himself, and Jia Ling immediately started a killer idea: constantly coquettish.
Although Jia seems to be old and spicy and capable, he can't resist Jiang Wanli's intercession and his daughter is so coquettish, even if his anger has not disappeared much, he really hasn't come up with a way to punish the two. There is no other way than to spend a few words scolding.
"Don't think that you will be safe and sound if you have Lord Jiang interceding for you, if you don't make things and your plans clear, don't try to fool the past!"
"Father-in-law, my son-in-law came with Lord Lu this time to ask you for guilt and tell you our intentions, and I didn't plan to fool the past." Shi Bin said calmly.
The stuffy gourd spoke, and Jia Rudao stopped caring about Jia Ling's kraft candy, and carefully inquired about the ins and outs of the matter. Perhaps because he was afraid that Shi Bin didn't understand 'language arts', Jia Ling began to speak before Shi Bin could speak. The absolute tongue is full of flowers, saying that Shi Bin is a poor person who has been treated seriously unfairly, and that his confrontation with the imperial court this time is forced and necessary, as if his life will not be saved if he does not do this.
Originally, he was still a little angry at why Jia Ling suddenly jumped out to speak and disrupted his plan, but after hearing this, Jiang Wanli knew that Jia Ling was still a talker, so he put his mind at ease. However, after Jia Ling finished speaking, Jiang Wanli still gave her a warning look. And Jia Ling immediately replied with an apologetic look after seeing it.
couldn't stand Jia Ling's coquettishness, crying and Jiang Wanli's intercession, and Jia Yidao's anger finally calmed down. But he was still anxious about how to deal with what happened next, because he didn't know the specific plans of Shi Bin and Lu Wende after all, and he didn't know what agreement Song Ting had reached with them.
Seeing that Jia Rudao's mood was normal, Shi Bin, the main master, spoke: "Father-in-law, my son-in-law knows that you are worried that we will have a bad relationship with the imperial court. Don't worry about this father-in-law, we have reached some agreements with them, and this time I came to tell you. I'm sure you'll be relieved after listening to it. ”
Naturally, he didn't believe Shi Bin's answer, after all, in Jia Rudao's eyes, Shi Bin was a junior, but he was only thirty. No matter how powerful it is, there will be omissions in such a big thing, so it is a face of disbelief. Since I don't believe it, I naturally ask.
"Father-in-law, the agreement reached between me and Lord Lu and the imperial court is that the imperial court will exempt Shaanxi and Hedong from taxes and forced labor for three years, and the imperial court will allocate two roads of 250,000 silver as support every year, and provide two granaries of 80,000 stone for emergency use. We only need the military and financial power of those two roads, and as for the governance, it is still handed over to the officials sent by the imperial court. Moreover, we will not have more than 50,000 regular troops on each road, and we guarantee that we will never take the initiative to attack the Yuanren within two years, but we will launch another northern expedition within four years. Shi Bin said. Speaking of this, Shi Bin consciously closed his mouth.
However, Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli were obviously not so easy to be fooled, and the two said in unison: "That's all? ”
Of course, he couldn't tell the matter of 'leading the army and the king of Qin' in front of Jiang Wanli, and he didn't even want to say anything about asking the courtiers to speak for him, so Shi Bin pretended to be stupid. Lian Lian said that he didn't know what Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli's words meant.
"Niece Jia, my niece and son-in-law have finished everything?" Jiang Wanli smiled meaningfully, "Don't you have something else?"
Seeing this, Jia Ling was also 'frightened', and said loudly: "Could it be that Uncle Jiang suspects that my husband and Lord Lu Wende want to betray Song Touyuan?" Uncle, you can eat more, and you can't talk nonsense! ”
"Xiaoling, what did you say! Apologize to your Uncle Jiang! Neither he nor I will doubt that you are so despicable. Jia Rudao reprimanded.
Jia Ling was very smart, so she naturally apologized to Jiang Wanli, but obviously she and Shi Bin still didn't plan to make it clear, they just pretended to be stupid together, saying that they didn't understand what Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli said.
Seeing that the two of them refused to speak, Jia Rudao had no choice but to pierce this layer of paper first, and asked helplessly: "I don't know if you have heard the words 'leading the army and the king of Qin'?" ”
Unexpectedly, Jia Yidao actually said this in front of Jiang Wanli, Shi Bin and Jia Ling were really frightened, so they had to immediately say that they said it and threaten Song Ting with this.
"You are really getting more and more powerful, you dare to blackmail the emperor like this, I heard that three thousand elites will be arranged near Lin'an City?" Jia Rudao asked through gritted teeth.
Now Shi Bin and Jia Ling no longer dare to speak loudly, so they can only agree in a low voice.
"It seems that you want to add insurance to yourself to prevent the imperial court from going up to the house and removing the ladder from you, or borrowing a knife to kill someone?" Jiang Wanli asked with a smile.
"It seems that Lord Jiang and my father-in-law already know and understand what I mean, so why bother asking? Is the court doing less of this kind of thing? How can you do it if you want the horse to run and the horse not to eat grass? Now that the birds are not finished, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is not dead, and the lackeys are cooking, is it too much? Shi Bin asked rhetorically as much as he tried to suppress his anger.
I have to admit that what Shi Bin said is reasonable, which makes Jia Yidao and Jiang Wanli not have much stern reprimand for a while, and can only say that Shi Bin and Lu Wende are too extreme and too extreme this time.
Because he still remembered Jiang Wanli's previous advice, Shi Bin kept nodding yes, and after defending himself for two sentences, he didn't say more. But Jia Ling, the eldest lady, was not so easy to control her emotions, even if she remembered Jiang Wanli's advice, she still defended Shi Bin, but her words were more kind and her tone was softer.
After doing this, Jia Rudao completely lost his temper, and could only ask helplessly: "Your agreement with the imperial court is not bad, but did the three thousand soldiers and horses really decide to be arranged near Lin'an?" ”
knew that Jia Rudao wanted to get a negative answer, but Shi Bin had to affirm it, so he had to say regretfully: "Father-in-law, I'm afraid it can only be like this." Otherwise, it will be difficult for me and Master Lu to rest assured, and this is also a guarantee for you. Don't worry, as long as the Song court doesn't make it bad, those 3,000 soldiers and horses are the guardians. ”
Although the tone was kind, the attitude conveyed in it was not negotiable, so Jia Rudao stopped working hard, and just lamented that there was no way to take Shi Bin.
At this time, Jiang Wanli suddenly smiled and said: "It's good to be able to do this, but Shi Bin, you have to remember your promise, I won't support your rebellion." ”
"It's nature." Shi Bin replied immediately. Jia Ling also nodded again and again.
