Chapter 51: The Grand Master Questioned
Lu Kai was still in the Pawn Office, chatting with Zhang Zhongping in the courtyard, chatting for half a cup of tea, seeing that Zhang Zhongping was resting enough to get up and go to the desk to write a letter, fold it and hand it to Zhang Zhongping, "Big brother knows about Proton Mansion?" ”
The entire Bei'an knew that Prince Jingyue came over as a hostage, and Zhang Zhongping was an insider, of course, he would not know, and he stretched out his hand to answer the letter, "I know, do you want me to send a letter over?" ”
Lu Kai glanced at Zhang Zhongping's expression silently, Zhang Zhongping's expression was as usual, and he didn't look surprised, Lu Kai chuckled, "Yes, trouble big brother, send this letter to Proton"
Zhang Zhongping was trying his best to do things, and he didn't ask some things that shouldn't be asked, and he just wanted to go out with a letter, but he turned back and asked carefully, "Send it secretly, or send it openly?" ”
Zhang Zhongping's expression was a little sneaky, and Lu Kai looked at it and said with a smile, "What?" It's strange for me to send a letter to Proton? ”
Of course, Zhang Zhongping will feel strange, he doesn't need to express his opinions, Zhang Zhongping smiled awkwardly and said, "The virtuous brother helps the brother to tide over the difficulties, I think it's better to ask clearly, don't hurt the good things of the virtuous brother"
Lu Kai asked Zhang Zhongping to send the letter with his own intentions, and there was only one purpose, that is, to let Zhang Zhongping see Dai Qian in the Proton Mansion, and the scene of the edict made Zhang Zhongping tremble, believing that he would not forget Dai Qian's appearance, and let Zhang Zhongping see that Dai Qian's purpose was to hint that Dai Qian Proton was related to him.
Now Zhang Zhongping is doing things for him, although he doesn't see anything, some things will definitely be put on the table in the end, and then Zhang Zhongping will choose a position, this time the letter is also another test, Zhang Zhongping's mouth is very tight last time, but this person is the most fickle, maybe when he will change his mind.
Lu Kai chose to win over Zhang Zhongping, because he was not from Beishu, not from Beishu, when he wanted to choose a position, he would be able to be less loyal and entangled, this time Zhang Zhongping saw that Dai Qian was in Proton Mansion, if his mouth was still tight, then Lu Kai could trust Zhang Zhongping more, and he could tell him more things.
Of course, Zhang Zhongping didn't know Lu Kai's thoughts, whether he could understand the purpose of this trip depended on whether Zhang Zhongping's mind was flexible or not, Lu Kai smiled and said, "I have something good to do, send it, send it openly"
Doing things for Lu Kai, Zhang Zhongping is anxious all day long, Lu Kai wants him to send a letter openly, then there is no fatal information in the letter, and if he doesn't send any fatal information, Zhang Zhongping can relax his nervous nerves.
Zhang Zhongping smiled and said, "Okay, I'll send it openly"
Zhang Zhongping came to the Proton Mansion, explaining that after the intention of the next person went in to report, Zhang Zhongping stood outside the door and looked a little nervous, although this is the Proton Mansion, but the proton is also the prince after all, the prince of Beishu is tall, short, fat and thin Zhang Zhongping has not seen it, and now he is about to meet the prince of Jingyue, Zhang Zhongping is the first time to meet the prince, in addition to being nervous, there is also some excitement.
can see big people, some of them feel like they are doing big things, Zhang Zhongping has never done anything big, and some of the people he has seen recently are not of the same class as him, and his mood is very complicated.
A voice came from inside the door, "Hey, be careful with the lower prune, it won't look good if you prune the whole branch fork more"
"Yes, yes, pay more attention to the lower cut"
The one who spoke seemed to be in charge, and the one who replied was like a subordinate, as if he was pruning flowers and branches in the courtyard.
Zhang Zhongping was already envious and sighed when he heard the voice, "If I can have such a big house and still instruct people to work every day, Lingsu doesn't know how happy I should be."
Thinking about it, Zhang Zhongping knew that he could only envy, and at the same time knew very well what his identity was, no matter how hard a person like him tried, he couldn't afford such a house.
"Clean up the branches and leaves after finishing the work" is a sentence in the door, and the courtyard door is open.
Someone came to lead Zhang Zhongping inside.
Dai Qian and Shen Jiancheng were in the hall, Dai Qian returned home earlier than Zhang Zhongping, Dai Qian had just finished telling Shen Jiancheng about Zhu Xingkong seeing him, and the next person happened to come to report, Dai Qian seemed to wonder and said, "Why is he here, His Royal Highness the Prince, I will avoid it"
Shen Jiancheng smiled at Dai Qian and said, "What to avoid, what is there to avoid, who doesn't know that you are here now"
Dai Qian was not very relieved and said, "This Zhang Zhongping is different from others, after all, I thought that the identity of the Southern Wei Xuanzhao envoy had seen him, and the Southern Wei Xuanzhao envoy was in the Jingyue Prince's Mansion, isn't it very strange?" I'm afraid it's not appropriate to stay."
Shen Jiancheng seemed to be able to understand Lu Kai's thoughts, and smiled slightly, "Lu Kai knew that you were here, but he still asked Zhang Zhongping to come, didn't he think that you might meet?" ”
Dai Qian thought about it, Shen Jiancheng was right, and he wanted to ask, "Then I'll sit?" Will this work? ”
Shen Jiancheng looked out of the door, and saw his subordinates leading Zhang Zhongping to come and said with a smile, "Sit, sit steadily"
The subordinates led Zhang Zhongping inside, Shen Jiancheng instructed the subordinates to serve tea, and Zhang Zhongping said, "I have seen His Royal Highness the Prince"
Zhang Zhongping had already seen Dai Qian outside the door, and when he saw Dai Qian in the Proton Mansion, he also said in his heart: "Why is the Southern Wei Xuanzhao envoy here?" ”
Compared with doubts, Dai Qian's person made Zhang Zhongping feel numb in his scalp, and Dai Qian's last time he killed him, Zhang Zhongping still has palpitations.
Zhang Zhongping didn't know Dai Qian's identity, and he didn't know whether he should call him Xuanzhao Envoy when he saw Dai Qian this time.
Zhang Zhongping didn't know what to call him, and he didn't dare to talk to Dai Qian, he wanted to greet politely but didn't dare, his eyes were dodgy.
Shen Jiancheng also didn't pose as a prince with Zhang Zhongping, his face was calm and asked with a smile, "Why are you here?" ”
Zhang Zhongping hurriedly took the letter and sent it to the emperor, "The envoy has a letter and presents it to His Royal Highness the Prince"
Zhang Zhongping held the letter in both hands and raised it above his head, and only when he arrived at Shen Jiancheng's coffee table did he put down his raised hands, respectfully placed it on Shen Jiancheng's coffee table and bowed back.
Shen Jiancheng was not in a hurry to look at the channel, "I'm tired", and he raised his voice, "Come on"
When the subordinates entered, Shen Jiancheng said "reward"
The subordinate sent the hard work fee, and Zhang Zhongping took the thanks, "Thank you, prince"
The subordinate led Zhang Zhongping to retreat.
After Zhang Zhongping left, Shen Jiancheng opened the letter and saw a "huh", and Dai Qian heard a different question, "What?" ”
Shen Jiancheng frowned and was puzzled, and at the same time smiled and said, "He asked you and me to go to the theater in two days."
"Watching a play?" Dai Qianqi said, "What kind of drama are you watching?" Is he still in the mood to watch the play at this time? ”
Shen Jiancheng couldn't guess Lu Kai's mind at this time, Shen Jiancheng smiled bitterly and said, "Since there is a drama to watch, how can it not be reasonable"
Dai Qian was in no mood to watch the play, he didn't see Lu Kai and didn't know how he was doing in the Pawn Office, Dai Qian said, "I don't know how he is, is there anything you want me to help with"
Shen Jiancheng smiled and said, "If you want to help, the letter will naturally say that he still has the heart to invite us to watch the play, which means that he is still safe."
Zhang Zhongping left the Proton Mansion full of doubts, and on the way Zhang Zhongping was thinking about a question, what was the matter with the Xuanzhao Envoy of the Southern Wei Dynasty, how could he be in the Proton Mansion, judging from the situation at that time, the prince did not look like he was entertaining foreign guests, but more like he had known each other for a long time.
Festival envoys, Xuanzhao envoys, and Jingyue princes, what is their relationship?
Zhang Zhongping does not yet have a clear direction to envision.
Zhang Zhongping replied to the Pawn Office to explain to Lu Kai that the letter had been served.
Zhang Zhongping went out and came back with two different looks, when he came back, his expression was full of doubts, Lu Kai saw Zhang Zhongping look like this, and knew that Zhang Zhongping saw Dai Qian.
This time the purpose has been reached, what can be done in the future is to observe whether Zhang Zhongping's mouth is tight, this matter takes time, only time can know whether Zhang Zhongping can be trusted.
The person has returned, and Lu Kai has nothing more to say, with a smile on his face, he said, "Just send it."
No matter what worries he had in his heart, in short, he couldn't think about it, and it was useless to think about things he didn't understand, Zhang Zhongping suddenly swept away his doubts and asked, "Brother Xian, do you have anything else for me to do?" ”
At present, there is nothing to do for Zhang Zhongping, and he was just about to open his mouth to let him go down, when a guard suddenly appeared in the courtyard, and the guard hurriedly came to report "Envoy, Taishi asks to see"
"The Taishi is here?" Chang Yue's visit to Lu Kaida in person was unexpected, and at the same time, he figured out in his heart why Chang Yue came over, and thought for a moment without any result.
Zhang Zhongping saw that Chang Yue couldn't stay if he wanted to come, "If the virtuous brother is fine, I'll go and get busy first"
Lu Kaike responded, "Go ahead"
Not long after Zhang Zhongping left, Lu Kai got up and walked out slowly, if Chang Yue had something to do, he could let him go to the Taishi Mansion, there was no need to come over in person.
While thinking about it, he walked out of the yard, and happened to see Chang Yue coming, Chang Yue entered the house with Lu Kai, and the two of them just sat down, Chang Yue immediately asked bluntly, "Envoy, there is something to hide from me!" ”
