Chapter 681: Caught up with the line of the Eight Tigers
The people sent by Liu Jin have already arrived at the guard.
"General Wang, General Shi."
Wang Laohu asked someone to sit down.
The man handed over an official document and handed it to Wang Laohu. Wang Laohu took it and said, "It turned out to be Lord Kuang from the capital, who was disrespectful and disrespectful. β
"General Shi's hometown is Jiangsu, which is the same province as Hua Taishi, and he has been to Hebei, Xiyang and other cities, and has experienced a hundred battles, and is a real military general. General Wang was a native of the country, his family was wealthy, and he was a hereditary businessman, as if he had not held a position in the court before. β
This Lord Kuang, as soon as he arrived in Hangzhou, he gave himself a problem, Shi Youcai came step by step, but he was a monk halfway, which made people suspicious. There are many reasons why a person can rise to the top, whether it is ability, or there are people, or opportunities, which kind of Wang Laohu belongs to?
Wang Laohu smiled, knowing that he was not an easy master to deal with, he was ordered by the master to come to give himself a good look, he had to think clearly, and he couldn't say anything wrong.
"Lord Kuang is right, I am indeed a small businessman, my ancestors did not smoke, you know that I am a dart master, go south and north, once when I was dart, I met a person, and helped him fight the grassland people together, I didn't expect him to be the saint today."
Master Kuang smiled and said, "Then you became this commander, it turned out that you relied on luck, and your luck was a little better than others?" β
The people in the Ming can hear that there are still words in this, and of course Wang Laohu also knows that Lord Kuang is prepared, and some things have been investigated clearly.
"Yes, I'm a little bit luckier than others." Wang Laohu said to himself.
"Master Ding of the Criminal Department, I heard that it is your relative?" Lord Kwong finally spoke.
These are the most basic information, when Wang Laohu was in the capital, he was once followed by Jinyiwei, and it was not surprising that they learned about this information. As for what more information they have in-depth, Wang Laohu is not clear. "Yes, yes, Lord Ding is my uncle and grandfather, and he is also a distant relative, I heard that he was sick last year, and I also went to the capital to visit his old man."
"Is it that simple? What haven't you done in the capital? β
"You know, this is my first time in the capital, and there are so many fun places in the capital, so I will play for a few more days. It was there that I learned that my uncle was not sick, he was in prison. β
"He was implicated in something, so he went to jail."
"I also think so, how can I go to jail if I don't commit a crime? I didn't inquire anything, but I went to the prison to see my grandfather, and it was not a place for people to stay, and when I saw him, he was no longer human. β
"You got this official from Master Ding, right?"
"I still know how I made a return to the official in a daze. I often wonder if it was luck or if my uncle and grandfather were secretly helping me.
But then I thought about it carefully, no, my uncle and grandfather were also in prison, how could he be my official for me? When I think about it this way, I think it's my luck. β
"Really?" Master Kwong asked.
"Lord Kuang, how General Wang behaves as an official, only the top knows, what kind of tricks we are doing." Shi Youcai said.
"Lord Kuang is from the capital, so he won't want to talk to me about how I became an official." Wang Laohu said.
Lord Kuang smiled and said: "The officials in the capital are very curious about General Wang's straight-line fishing promotion, and I am also one of them. β
"I didn't expect me to be so famous."
"It's not famous, everyone is just curious." Lord Kuang said, "Lord Shi, I have something to tell General Wang in private. β
"Oh, I know, I know, then I'll step back first." Shi Youcai said knowingly.
Shi Youcai retreated.
At this time, Lord Kuang's main topic began, "General Wang, you are the commander of Hangcheng, and you are only a military general, if you want to go up further, it is a little difficult." β
This has a lot to do with the Ming Dynasty's emphasis on civil affairs over military force, and civilian officials have more room for promotion than military attachΓ©s.
"I now have this official position, and I am already an ancestor who has accumulated virtue. My distant relatives are already in prison, and there is no hope for them. What else do you say about getting promoted? β
"Now you have that opportunity."
As soon as he heard that there was such an opportunity, Wang Laohu pretended to be happy and said: "Xiaguan is stupid, I don't know what kind of opportunity it is, and I ask Lord Kuang to make it clear." β
"The current prefect of Hangzhou, Lord Ma will be promoted soon, this prefect of Hangzhou is a vacancy, Lord Wang can work hard. Although this official quality is not as good as that of a commander, it has a great future. β
"It doesn't seem cost-effective for me, a third-grade official, to change to a fourth-grade prefect. Besides, I don't know any high-ranking officials in the capital, so who will recommend me? β
"Lord Wang is reluctant to give up this official product, so it is better to simply prefect the palace and command all of them." Master Kwong suggested.
"Master Kwong, don't make fun of me."
"I'm telling the truth, when the time comes, this Hangzhou City will be the world of your Lord Wang."
"Is there such a good thing?"
"Of course, you think I'm joking with you?"
"How can I make a brother like Lord Kuang, please show me a feasible path for my brother, brother, I am grateful."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say." Lord Kwong said this in his mouth, but after that, he was secretive, spit out some and hid some.
"Lord Kuang, listening to people's accents, it doesn't seem to be from the capital." Wang Laohu knew that the children's pronunciation of the people in the capital was obvious, and his pronunciation was obvious.
"I'm from Cantonese.
β
"Guangdong is a good place, Shaoguan Danxia Mountain has Danxia landform landscape, in the hidden rock caves in the cliffs on both sides of the Jinjiang River, there are also many hanging coffin remains, as well as the first wonder of Lingnan reputation of the Seven Star Rock, the mountains are stacked, the scenery is charming, and the fairyland on earth."
"Is General Wang talking about Guangdong? How come I, a Cantonese person, don't know that there are these beautiful places? β
Wang Laohu once traveled to Guangdong, and this scenery was artificially developed later, which may be different from the name of the Ming Dynasty, so Lord Kuang did not know. "I've heard from people I've been there, are they lying to me?"
"Haha, they didn't lie to you, this Danxia Mountain and Qixingyan are all there, but they are not as good as you say."
"The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise. Different people see different landscapes. Wang Laohu also laughed.
"Lord Wang is young, and he has been to a lot of places, and you can see from your conversation that your cultivation will become a great tool in the future."
"This depends on Lord Kuang's promotion."
"Ouch, I'm really forgetful, I'm going to the prefect to congratulate Master Ma on his upcoming ascension."
"Okay, okay, I'll have someone send Master Kuang."
Looking at the back of Lord Kuang out of the guard, Wang Laohu was full of thoughts, this Lord Kuang was the envoy of Jinyi Wei, from the official of the fourth grade, although he did not talk about Liu Jin from beginning to end this time, but it can be known that the meaning of his words is obvious, and it is very likely to be Liu Jin.
In addition, in the same way, Ma Lishang also mentioned to himself that he was transferred, let himself also walk around, and get a prefect to do it, the two of them said the same thing, so that Wang Laohu couldn't help but be suspicious, they were people in the same boat.
It was the first time for Mr. Kwong to meet him, and there were some reasons why he didn't say anything, and smart people understood that it costs money to move around behind the scenes, and if he wants to get into this position, he has to move around by himself. Another very big reason is that Lord Kuang was ordered to come to Hangzhou to explore his own way, and he wanted to be safe, so that he would not be exposed and killed.
Mr. Kwong's accommodation is arranged in the Jinyi Weiduo Hotel in Hangzhou.
Wang Laohu had dinner in the guardhouse, took Wang Biao, and came to his residence with the gifts he had bought in the afternoon.
The two of them sat down.
"Lord Kuang just came here today, and I didn't have to come to disturb it, but I thought I wanted to do my best as a landlord, so I took the liberty to come and disturb." Wang Laohu said.
Lord Kuang accepted the gift from Wang Laohu, and said with a smile: "Lord Wang, you are polite, you will come when you come, what kind of gift do you give." β
"This is a specialty of our Hangzhou, you come to Hangzhou, of course, you have to give some to adults, it is not a gift." Wang Laohu said.
Of course, Lord Kuang knows that there is a jade cabbage in the gift, which is very valuable, and it is as simple as what is a specialty.
