Fang Yuan suddenly wanted to see Chen Yuan, and everyone was stunned.

A dignified governor who holds the authority of the country and has the same power as the emperor suddenly summons a woman from a green house with the name of the first beauty in Jiangnan to come to the door. This matter is a ready-made peach-colored scandal everywhere, and if it is spread, the custody will become an event recorded in the memoirs of various literati.

Everyone's eyes invariably looked at Princess Kunxing, and Hu Qi responded, but he still didn't move.

The princess looked at Fang Yuan with a smile and said, "Okay, then let's retreat first." Mama Liang, according to the rules, it is listed in the housekeeping book! The horse met Chen Yuan in the dormitory of the Governor's Mansion today. ”

Fang Yuan was made to cry and laugh by her, and he didn't want to sleep with Chen Yuan, what kind of housekeeping book did he put in to record sexual affairs? The princess is clearly his army!

Fang Yuan sighed and said, "No need, princess, you and I will summon Chen Yuan together." ”

The princess pursed her lips and smiled, "Yes! I have heard for a long time that this Chen Yuanyuan is known as the first beauty in the south of the Yangtze River, and she has good colors and arts, and I also want to see it. ”

Chen Yuan was already running the peach orchard left by Xu Hua, and after receiving the news that Fang Yuan ordered her to go to the Governor's Palace, she arrived at the Governor's Mansion in the early morning of the next day, wearing light makeup and plain clothes.

Princess Kunxing looked at Chen Yuan with dripping eyes, secretly judging the appearance of the two. The princess also had to admit that in terms of appearance, she was indeed inferior to Chen Yuanyuan, and even Liu Ru was not as good as Chen Yuanyuan.

Chen Yuan thought that Fang Yuan was suddenly summoned this time, and thought that Fang Yuan had taken a fancy to his beauty, so he deliberately came with light makeup and plain clothes, just because he didn't want everyone to have any misunderstanding, she didn't come to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix to this trip.

Unexpectedly, there was also Princess Kunxing who summoned her at the same time, so she realized that she had really misunderstood before. Seeing that the princess looked at herself from time to time, she lowered her eyes and said softly, "The concubine came to meet Governor Fang and the princess, and dared to ask what happened to summoning the concubine to the Governor's Mansion?" ”

Fang Yuan's gaze fell on Chen Yuan, and he didn't say politely to her, and said straight to the point, "Chen Yuan, how is the Xu family's peach garden being cleaned?!" ”

The Xu family's peach orchard is privately owned, but it is only registered with the teaching department, and it stands to reason that the party cannot intervene in the operation of the peach garden. However, the Xu family's Qinglou industry is far more than Taoyuan, and the Qinglou acquired by other state governments are basically government-run Qinglou under the name of the government's Education Department, as well as larger government-run industries such as silk and porcelain.

Fang Yuan's question, Chen Yuan couldn't help but answer, "In accordance with Governor Fang's order, it has been completely purged, and it was only reopened half a year ago. ”

She replied softly, her voice was as moving as Huang Ying'er, Fang Yuan nodded, and said, "That's good!" I also want to entrust the Xu family with a burden, which is to open a gambling station in Taoyuan. ”

Chen Yuan's watery eyes looked at him in a daze, and he asked hesitantly, "Dare to ask Governor Fang, what is a gaming station?" ”

Fang Yuan smiled and said, "The so-called gambling is another way of saying gambling, and the Daming Law is forbidden to gamble, so it must be slightly whitewashed." ”

Chen Yuan asked rhetorically, "Since the Ming Dynasty prohibits gambling, why does Governor Fang blatantly violate it and gamble openly?" ”

Fang Yuan was slightly stunned, this Chen Yuan's words seemed to be too much, these words were simply asking knowingly, what is the purpose of opening a casino, not to gather wealth?

Fang Yuan's heart was a little unhappy, his face sank, and he said lightly, "The Governor's Mansion does not open gambling, and there are also many underground casinos opened by bullies in collusion with the government in every state and county in Jiangnan. Those casinos are abducted and deceived and usury, and there are countless people who have lost their families, sold their wives and children, and are countless. Since those gamblers want to gamble, it is better for the governor's palace to preside over the gambling, at least they will not be cheated and cheated, let alone force the gamblers to go bankrupt. ”

Chen Yuan still asked reluctantly, "Governor Fang just said it nicely, what is the difference between the silver being earned by the Governor's Mansion or being earned by the bullies?" ”

Fang Yuan's eyes were like torches staring at the first beauty in the south of the Yangtze River in front of him, but the anger in his heart was constantly rising, he endured it without attacking, and patiently explained, "The one issued by the Governor's Palace is called the Welfare Lottery, the so-called Welfare Lottery, all the money earned is spent on the people's livelihood and the well-being of the people, and it is also beneficial to the country and the people, is it no different from those bullies?" ”

Chen Yuan pursed his lips and chuckled and said, "Since Governor Fang has such a high-sounding reason, the Governor's Mansion can open this welfare lottery on its own, why should the Xu family bear it?" Could it be that Governor Fang wanted the Xu family to bear the black pot again, and in the end, he aroused the anger of the people, and then learned to execute his father-in-law, execute me to calm the people's anger, and Governor Fang went ashore safely? ! ”

Chen Yuan's words hit the nail on the head, dissecting Fang Yuan's mind completely. These words can only be understood, not spoken, Chen Yuan said this, just slapped Fang Yuan in the face.

Fang Yuan's anger had reached its peak, he put the teacup on the table, and said in a cold voice, "Chen Yuanyuan, Xu Hua privately disregarded two hundred lives, isn't it a heinous crime, and he should be executed according to the law?" ”

Chen Yuan met his angry gaze, his eyes met but he didn't give in at all, "Although my father-in-law deserves to be executed, after all, he has carried so many black cauldrons for Governor Fang. Why can't Governor Fang be executed in private, so that the Xu family retains a good reputation, and he has to be tried in public? Isn't Governor Fang's public trial using his father-in-law's life to gain fame?! ”

She spoke without mercy, and one sentence was a loud slap in the face, hitting Fang Yuan's face at once. Fang Yuan knew that he was trying Xu Hua publicly, and he was indeed eating Xu Hua's human blood steamed buns, and he was the one who was the first to lose. That's why he deliberately asked Xu Hua's eldest son Xu Jing to inherit Xu Hua's identity as an official and businessman, and transferred Xu Hua's youngest son Xu Cheng to Jinyiwei in preparation for promotion.

At present, Chen Yuan did not give Fang Yuan any face, and exposed it in public so that he could not come to the stage, so angry that Fang Yuan was annoyed and angry, but he still maintained the basic demeanor of the governor on his face, and said lightly, "It turns out that the Xu family has always been obsessed with me, okay, Chen Yuanyuan, in the future, the Xu family will be honored or humiliated, and it has nothing to do with the governor." ”

He was really angry now, since the Xu family after Xu Hua's death was no longer under control, but regarded him as an enemy, then the Xu family must no longer let the people of the Xu family know any secrets of the Governor's Mansion, and they can only take back the status of the Xu family's big officials and businessmen and find another replacement.

Chen Yuan Yingying got up, turned around and walked a few steps, and bowed respectfully to Fang Yuan, "If the concubine says that she doesn't hold a grudge against Governor Fang, will Governor Fang believe it or not?!" It turned out that Governor Fang only liked to listen to deceitful sweet words, and the concubine said goodbye. ”

Fang Yuan heard that she had something to say, and said in a deep voice, "Chen Yuanyuan, what do you want to say?!" ”

Chen Yuan said softly, "I never said that I didn't want to be a scapegoat for Governor Fang, and today I was rude, I just wanted to implore Governor Fang." I'm different from my father-in-law, I can be a scapegoat for Governor Fang, but I don't want to be an outcast! ”

Fang Yuan was angry and happy when he heard her words, it turned out that Chen Yuan had been playing with him to indulge in the past, wanting to promote and suppress first, and to talk about the conditions, instead of really wanting to turn back.

He had always thought that Chen Yuan was just a good-looking vase. Now that he has in-depth contact with Chen Yuan, Chen Yuan can mobilize his joy and anger with a few words, and his intelligence is indeed beyond his imagination.

He really underestimated this woman who could leave her name in history before, Chen Yuanyuan's identity was just a concubine of Wu Sangui, and in the Ming Dynasty, it was a commodity that could be bought and sold casually. If she was just serving people with her appearance, Wu Sangui, a generation of heroes, would never put her father Wu Xiang and her side by side as a reason to crusade against Li Zicheng.

Sending troops for a concubine is the same as sending troops for a pet cat and dog before the crossing, and saying it can make the world laugh off its big teeth. The so-called hatred of killing her father and taking her wife, although she is not Wu Sangui's wife, in Wu Sangui's heart, she obviously regards her as a wife, not a concubine who can be bought and sold at any time.

This Chen Yuan has really always underestimated her. Qin Huai Bayan's eldest sister Liu Ruis, and Chen Yuanyuan, who is known as the No. 1 prostitute in Jiangnan, are really not fuel-efficient lamps!

Fang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Chen Yuanyuan, what conditions do you want?!" ”
