Chapter 19: Old Schemes
Haiguanyu's mansion is still so popular, and when the wind goes down without a trace, what catches his eye is the long list of long-standing horsemen, most of them gathered in that row of small shops, talking as if no one was around, and the officials who came and went didn't seem to care.
Haiqing, who was waiting in front of the door, had very thief eyes, and saw the familiar official sedan chair from afar, and in the past two years, the wind has no trace and almost came to visit when he was free, and then he simply asked the emperor for advice, and personally came to Haifu to ask Hai Congrui for advice. This Hai Da Gong is also a lazy person, and he is happy to save the effort of going back and forth every day. However, the subordinates in the mansion came and went, and understood that the drunkard of the Seventh Highness did not mean to drink, and they talked about it behind their backs for a while, until Haiguanyu gave a strict order, which stopped the nonsense of the group of subordinates. However, Feng Wuxian admired Hai Ruoxin, and everyone in the house knew about it, after all, the two of them were also a good match, and they were only married by the emperor.
Hai Qing trotted over with a cigarette, knelt down neatly and saluted: "Slave to the Seventh Highness to say goodbye!" ”
"That's it." Feng Wuxian nodded with a smile, "As far as you know things smartly, no wonder this errand has always been in charge of you, and your eyes are really good." ”
"Your Highness laughed." Hai Qing accompanied the smiling face, even if he didn't care about the identity of the prince of Feng Wuxi, the eldest aunt of Haifu in the future, how could he do it without stepping up, "The slave is just a disciple, of course the adults who come and go have to serve enthusiastically, and they can't embarrass our family, right?" ”
"Haiqing, you're not honest, last time I heard that there was a county magistrate from Shaanxi who came to see Hai Xiangye, you seemed to think that his gifts were not rich enough, so you didn't let people in." Wind Traceless asked seemingly casually.
Hai Qing's body shook, peeked at Feng Wuxi's face, and found that it was no different, so he was relieved. "Your Highness the Seventh, this matter ......"
"Well, look at how scared you are. I'm not your master, so I'm too lazy to meddle with your business. It's just that you can do things smartly in the future, don't ruin the reputation of the old man, understand? ”
Hai Qing looked at Feng Wuxian as if he was smiling, and a small drum hit in his heart, and he hurriedly swore by the swear, and he was even more attentive.
There was nothing to do on the road, and Feng Wuxian asked about the row of small shops at the door by the way, every time he asked Hai Guanyu, this old fox always avoided talking about it, and this time it was a good opportunity. Hai Qing figured out that this matter was not a secret, and revealed the reason. It turns out that the domestic slaves of the Hai family have reached a considerable number after three generations, and the amount of money and food consumed every year is countless. It wasn't until Hai Guanyu accidentally saw those entourages who came to visit the officials chewing the dry food they carried and waiting at the door that he had an idea, he had never accepted gifts, but the reputation of not being in oil and salt was really bad, and he didn't even have extra money with his subordinates. Therefore, the emperor secretly made it clear that he opened this long shop on the street in front of his house, and distributed it to several families of servants with great merit. Naturally, those officials who invited them would not miss this opportunity, so they made up for those subordinates in Haifu who were not well-off.
Feng Wuxian has a little more admiration for this old man, the method of placing people in this way is fresh, but if you think about it carefully, there is no damage to others and yourself, no wonder he has a close relationship with himself, but he never avoids suspicion, it turns out that he knows that he has a hundred benefits to the Hai family and no harm, and he is worthy of being a tumbler in the court.
Hai Qing kept sending the wind to the door of the inner house without a trace, and then stopped. The masters of Haifu almost regard this highness as their own, so the front yard of the inner house is almost free to come in and out, and Miss Ruoxin often comes over intentionally or unintentionally, and even Miss Ruolan, who has always been silent, will come over a few times. Hai Qing could see that His Royal Highness the Seventh seemed to have a soft spot for Miss Ruoxin, but when she thought of the kind-hearted but hard-working Miss Ruolan, she also hoped that she would have a good home. Thinking about it, he suddenly patted his head, what does this matter to himself, maybe the master is happy, and it is not necessary to give the two Miss Sun to this highness, it is important that he still goes on an errand. Thinking of the lazy boys on the door, he hurried back.
"Xiangye, teacher, Traceless is here to apologize to the two of you!" Feng Wuxian bowed down and said, "I've been busy these days, and I can't take care of the teacher's class, and I haven't come to say hello to Xiangye, I'm really ashamed!" ”
Hai Guanyu and Hai Congrui hurriedly returned the half salute, "His Royal Highness the Seventh is really too polite, after several His Highnesses leave Beijing, of course, it will be your turn to be busy for a while, the old man is old, maybe one day you will be safe without asking!" Haiguan Yu said happily, "It's been from Rui's muttering many times, he is still very satisfied with your student, but it's a pity that you are the prince, at most you can only count half of his students, it seems that his mantle has to find another heir!" ”
"Father!" Hai Congrui glared at his father fiercely, "You are a dignified prime minister, why do you always make fun of me at home, no trace, come, I just found a problem, you come to the study with me." "He is not as polite as his father to Feng Wuji, since he is a student, he should be called by his first name, and the emperor also knows his nerdy habits, so he does not think it is wrong.
Feng Wuxian is stupid now, everyone knows that Hai Dagongzi is a bookworm, if he talks to you about learning, it will be difficult to get out for three days and three nights, but he has experienced that kind of difficult taste, if he usually doesn't care, a nap will pass, but now, he has something to ask Hai Guanyu, how can he have the time to listen to the teacher's nagging?
"Alright, Congrui. Can't you slow down your learning? Hai Guanyu already knew the intention of Feng Wuxi, and when he saw his son so uninformed, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, "Isn't it okay to give a little of His Highness's time to your father?" ”
Hai Congrui muttered dissatisfiedly, but his father spoke, and he, as a son, had to comply, and before going out, he still turned his head and said: "No trace, after my father's matter here is over, you come to my study, I haven't tested you for a long time." If the emperor blames him, my little official can't afford to bear it! He threw a demonstrative glimpse at his father.
"Alas, Cong Rui is this temperament, this is good, through the emperor to suppress me, a father." Having said that, Hai Guanyu's face was full of relief, he didn't care about his son's official position, no matter how high the official position was, there were so many things that misbehaved and buried a splendid future, his son was actually wise and foolish! "Your Highness the Seventh, you must have come to the old man for what happened recently?"
"Yes, traceless and dull, please ask the old man for advice." At this time, there were only the two of them in the room, and the wind was full of vigor at the beginning, and the tired color was fully revealed, "Although I am still young now, I have been favored by my father, but in the long run, I am afraid that life will be very difficult." He spat out his bitter water, which was half-true and half-false, and he knew that if he gave this old man a little meaning, he would be able to guess a rough idea.
After listening to the long description of Feng Wuxi, Hai Guanyu casually grabbed a strangely shaped fruit on a porcelain plate on the side, "Although this strange fruit is good, if it is on the side of the road, it is strong and unyielding, and everyone covets it; If you grow up in a wealthy family, you will be pampered, weak and easy to break; If it grows in a large fruit forest, it is just an ordinary fruit, does Your Highness understand? ”
Looking at Feng Wuxian and a little confused, Hai Guanyu continued: "The old man doesn't play dumb riddles anymore, why didn't His Highness the Seventh invite himself out of Beijing and avoid the edge for the time being?" Hey, once you're gone, the guns of the court will change direction. Could it be that His Royal Highness thinks that the emperor has not made up his mind? I still think that the concubine is ......"
Feng Wuji's eyes widened instantly, "Lord Haixiang, if there are achievements in the future, it will be thanks to you, and I will thank you for my great kindness, and I thank you here." As he spoke, he bowed and went down.
Hai Guanyu was taken aback, and immediately bent down to help him up, "The old man still wants to marry his granddaughter to you, naturally I can't watch you sink deeper and deeper into the quagmire, but the emperor has a bad temperament these days, you have to choose a good opportunity yourself." ”
Hearing the previous sentence, Feng Wuxian couldn't help blushing, but Hai Guanyu's words behind him were right, and he immediately said: "Don't worry, the old man can save without a trace." Thinking that if he left Beijing, he didn't know how long he would be able to return, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Miss Ruoxin, please tell the old minister, I won't say goodbye, so as not to cause more trouble." He knows very well that he has been with Hai Ruoxin day and night in the past two years, and once he says goodbye, I'm afraid he will be the first to be unbearable.
"Don't worry, the old man has his own measure." This kind of thing, if you don't talk about it without a trace, Hai Guanyu will not forget it, but her granddaughter is the meat of his heart.
