Chapter 586: The invitation of the Wang family
When Zhao Laiyu came to the study in the county office, Zhao Hongrun was still looking at the invitation sent to him in the name of Zhengcheng Wang. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because Zongwei Changwei Weijiao did not stop him, Zhao Laiyu came to Zhao Hongrun's side on crutches, glanced at the invitation, and after frowning slightly, he immediately "hummed" twice.
"Any suggestions?" Zhao Hongrun asked casually.
Zhao Laiyu chuckled a few times, came to the chair on the side with a cane, and said slowly after sitting down: "The old man suggested that you still use the serious injury as an excuse to politely excuse yourself." ”
"Do you think I can't fight the Zhengcheng Wang Clan?" Zhao Hongrun asked with some surprise.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Laiyu smoothed out the folds on his sleeves and said slowly: "The old man thinks you will mess things up." ”
Zhao Hongrun was stunned, and then laughed.
Yes, whether it is Zhao Hongrun or Zhao Laiyu, they can guess why the distinguished guest from the Zhengcheng Wang clan came this time.
It is nothing more than trying to resolve the contradiction between Zhao Hongrun and the Anling Wang clan.
But since Zhao Hongrun has decided to use the Anling Wang clan to kill chickens and monkeys, will he easily let it go?
In this way, the worst outcome is nothing more than turning his face on the spot with the clansman of the Zhengcheng Wang clan.
And Zhao Laiyu's suggestion was to let Zhao Hongrun delay for a few days, and wait for King Yong Hongyu on the side of Daliang to send his people and let King Yong deal with the Zhengcheng Wang clan and offend the Zhengcheng Wang clan.
"But the king of this man personally came to your Zhao family, and the trick of being attacked and injured has long been seen through by the nobles in the city. …… If it is delayed at this time, won't it make the nobles in the city mistakenly think that this king is afraid of the Zhengcheng Wang clan? Speaking of this, Zhao Hongrun shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I finally mastered the situation, but I don't want anything to go wrong." ”
Hearing this, Zhao Laiyu's eyes flashed a few different colors, and he reminded: "Can you hold back?" ”
Zhao Hongrun pursed his lips and snorted lightly: "If you can't help it, just help King Yong move down the East Palace!" ”
"......" Zhao Laiyu opened his mouth, then shook his head with a wry smile.
After half a ring, he hesitated and asked, "Hongrun, those boys...... What is it like in prison? ”
The boys in his mouth are his grandsons, the third son Zhao Chengzhi, the fifth son Zhao Chengjiong, the eighth son Zhao Chengtang, the tenth son Zhao Chengcan, and the thirteenth son Zhao Chengsui.
These five grandsons of Zhao Laiyu were put in the county jail by Zhao Hongrun this morning in the name of suspects in the Gong brothers case and the county warehouse deficit case.
The purpose is very simple, that is, to let these sons who used to be pampered and feel good about themselves taste the taste of prison and frustrate their spirits.
And these are all entrusted by Zhao Laiyu to Zhao Hongrun.
There is no way, Zhao Laiyu's three sons are not people who can become a tool, so Zhao Laiyu can only pin his hopes on a few grandchildren.
This is his deal with Zhao Hongrun.
"Humph!" Hearing this, Zhao Hong snorted lightly and said lightly: "A few little guys are very arrogant, but Zhou Pu rewarded them for eating a few mouths, and they finally stopped." ”
Zhao Laiyu's wrinkled old face trembled slightly, and then asked, "What about Cheng Sui?" ”
I have to say that among the five grandsons, Zhao Laiyu values Zhao Chengsui the most.
At the mention of Zhao Chengxun, Zhao Hongrun's eyes flashed a few different colors, and he said with interest: "According to what Zhou Pu said, that kid seems to have seen something, he is very peaceful in prison, and he is quite knowledgeable about current affairs. …… Even if Zhou Pu deliberately provoked him, he just didn't hear it. ”
"Hmm." When Zhao Laiyu heard this, his eyes continued to praise.
After all, his private transaction with Zhao Hongrun was not disclosed to those grandsons, and when the Zong Wei took the merchant army to the Zhao Mansion in Anling to arrest people again, everyone thought that he Zhao Laiyu and Zhao Hongrun's negotiation failed, so that the two sides completely tore their faces.
In that case, if Zhao Chengsui can still see something, it means that this son's talent is very good.
"It doesn't matter, even if you see something, the environment in prison can also hone the hearts of those boys. …… As long as it is not disabled, let Zhou Pu do it! ”
“…… You're so ruthless. Zhao Hongrun glanced at Zhao Laiyu strangely, but he also understood that Zhao Laiyu's grandsons had already been spoiled by their father and uncle, and if they didn't use a little ruthlessness, those boys would not be obedient.
"What about your eldest daughter-in-law?" Zhao Hongrun asked coldly.
As if he had expected Zhao Hongrun to ask this, Zhao Laiyu stroked his beard and said coldly: "This woman helped the Wang family, instigated Wen Lin, and almost caused the destruction of my Zhao family. The old man had asked Wen Lin to write a letter of resignation and expelled him back to the Wang family. ”
…… That's ruthless, old thing.
Zhao Hongrun muttered to himself, and said casually: "Aren't you afraid that Zhao Shisan (Zhao Chengxui) will hate you?" ”
Unexpectedly, Zhao Laiyu glanced at Zhao Hongrun, and said with a smile: "It's okay, when the time comes, I will bring it back, as long as Hongrun doesn't interfere, the old man is confident that he will still have a little thin face, so that my Zhao daughter-in-law will not be reduced to the frontier as a prisoner." …… This woman is probably good, and it is good to use this incident to make her sober and sober. ”
Not?
Zhao Hongrun felt that his handling of the Wang family seemed to be seen through by Zhao Laiyu.
But if you think about it carefully, it's not a big deal if Zhao Laiyu can see through this kind of thing, after all, the Wang family is also surnamed Ji, even if Zhao Hongrun wants to kill chickens and monkeys, he won't kill them all, at most it's just a matter of filling the army and distributing it.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun changed the topic and said: "The share of the county warehouse is short, you make up for it with double amount, don't make it difficult for me." As for the Gong brothers, you are not the main culprit anyway, so you don't have to pay attention to it. ”
Zhao Laiyu nodded, although filling the double deficit was a huge expense for the Zhao family, which was not a solid family, Zhao Laiyu didn't care.
After all, with Zhao Hongrun's acquiescence, they organized a caravan to go back and forth to Sanchuan a few times, and all the losses were returned, what's the big deal?
Moreover, he could also understand why Zhao Hongrun punished them so harshly with the Zhao family, if not, how could Zhao Hongrun have an excuse to punish the Wang family and the rest of the nobles in the city?
"When I look back, I remember to dot up and down in the middle of the court. …… If there is some gossip, it is not good after all. ”
Leaving a word, Zhao Laiyu left the study on crutches by himself.
Zhao Hongrun rolled his eyes at this: He is not a three-year-old child, how could he not even know about this kind of thing?
After all, this old thing is purely here to inquire about the situation of his grandsons in the county jail.
Shaking his head, Zhao Hongrun picked up the invitation on the table again.
Immediately, he instructed Wei Jiao, the chief of the sect's guards, and said, "Wei Jiao, order people to prepare horses." ”
"Yes!" Wei Jiao lowered his head and hugged his fists.
Leaving Zongwei Zhou Pu to continue to guard the county prison and continue to teach Zhao Chengsui and others, Zhao Hongrun took Wei Jiao, Lu Mu, Chu Heng, and Mu Qing to the mansion of the Wang family on horseback.
Along the way, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help laughing, but when he came to the main mansion of the Wang family, he couldn't bear it after all, and his face was full of smiles.
Why?
Because the shops under the name of the Wang family, including their main residence, were all smashed by Zong Wei Jiao and Yan Mo and Yan Ling soldiers a few days ago, so that now it looks like this mansion belonging to Anling's leading wealthy nobles looks so miserable.
actually boasted that he wanted to smash the king's porridge factory...... Hey!
"Well done!"
Zhao Hongrun whispered a word of approval.
On the side, Zongwei Changwei was stunned, and then laughed a few times.
Immediately, he turned over and dismounted, and knocked on the door of the mansion vigorously.
"Bang bang bang-"
"Who?!"
In the mansion, there was an angry shout, which made Wei Jiao faintly feel a little familiar.
It wasn't long before one of the servants opened the mansion and glanced out.
When he saw Wei Jiao, he saw the domestic servant screaming, his face full of horror, and he subconsciously wanted to close the door of the mansion.
It's a pity that his strength is not as strong as Wei Jiao, and Wei Jiao pushed the door of the mansion open.
"You...... You ......"
I saw the servant who fell to the ground covering his slightly swollen left side of his face with his hand, and looked at Wei Jiao's eyes full of horror and fear.
Person...... It's familiar.
Wei Jiao stared at the servant for a long time, and then suddenly realized: Isn't this the servant who was knocked unconscious by him when he and Yan Mo came to smash the main house of the Wang family that day, because he didn't hurt when he opened the door for them.
"Don't worry, I won't hit you today."
Wei Jiao smiled and took out the invitation from his arms, threw it at the servant's feet, and said lightly, "Go and report it." ”
The servant picked up the invitation and looked at it carefully, then said with a wincing voice: "My lord has already instructed that no matter when His Royal Highness King Su comes to the door for a banquet, he can go straight to the mansion. …… Ladies and gentlemen, please. ”
After that, he ran to the mansion and ran very fast, as if he was afraid that Wei Jiao would catch up and knock him out again.
At this time, Zhao Hongrun had already stepped into the house.
The main house of the Wang family, he Zhao Hongrun came to Anling on the day of his first arrival, and he only felt that the carved beams and paintings were very particular, but now, it was as if it had been hit by a tornado, the rockery was smashed, the flowers and trees were uprooted, and there was a layer of yellow floating faintly beside the passing pool.
What the hell is that, Zhao Hongrun didn't want to investigate it in detail, so he hurriedly walked over.
He just secretly said in his heart: Compared with Shen Yu, Wei Jiao is more ruthless and more damaged.
Walking along the route in his memory, after walking for a while, Zhao Hongrun suddenly saw several people coming towards him.
Wang Zhan, Wang Xun, Wang Lun, these three brothers look similar, and they are still very easy to recognize.
But the well-dressed young man who walked in front of the three of them, Zhao Hongrun didn't recognize it.
And just when Zhao Hongrun was secretly guessing, he saw the richly dressed young man walk up to Zhao Hongrun, arch his hand and smiled: "Zhengcheng Wang's family, Wang Jin (quan), has long admired the prestige of His Royal Highness King Su. ”
Wang Ying......
Zhao Hongrun arched his hand perfunctorily as a return gift. (To be continued.) )
