Chapter 356 will be chaotic
"You can sit firmly in the West Market, who are you fighting against? I am sent by whom! I, surnamed Feng! ”
The person who came was a young showman in his twenties, but his expression was calm, his conversation was introverted, and he was more mature than his peers.
Cao Weituo was surprised, looked back at the attendants who followed, ordered them to stay outside the door with his eyes, and then quickly closed the shoji door, walked forward quickly, and knelt down in front of the desk.
"Are you the one who is the old man? What is going on now, the prince is recruiting troops and food, and there are rumors that the prince is rebelling......"
"That's a plan, a plan to trap the prince!"
Feng Xiushi cut off Cao Weituo's words: "I came back this time, just to meet the prince, explain the details of the situation, and ask the prince not to be fooled." The prince was terrified at this time, and what he did, in the eyes of the emperor, seemed to be a rebellion, and if it went on like this, it would be pouring the water of the Yellow River, and it would not be washed away, and the traitor's plot would have to be presented. ”
Cao Weituo was stunned again: "Want to see the prince?" Then why did you come to the West Market? ”
The corners of Feng Xiu's mouth twitched slightly, and he said in a flash: "The prince is like a frightened bird at this time, and openly and secretly, I don't know how many people are staring at him, watching his every move, staring at his handle loopholes, and even whether the people around him have someone from King Qin, it is not clear." I went straight to the door and posted it, saying that I asked to see it? If the time is revealed, or my identity is recognized, how will my head of the house deal with himself? ”
Listening to this person's tone, it is obvious that he is from the prince's faction. Since he is a member of the prince's faction, it is natural to help the prince, so why should he be afraid of people knowing his identity?
That's because this person is now a person from Tiance Mansion, that is, a person from Li Shimin, the king of Qin.
This person is Feng Deyi, who was born with a backbone.
Feng Deyi is the best among the natural anti-bones, a big master in the inner room, and can be called an example of an agent.
Feng Deyi, born in the Bohai Feng family, is the grandson of the Northern Qi prince Taibao Fenglong, and the son of Fengzixiu of the Tongzhou Thorn of the Sui Dynasty. This person used to be Yang Su's staff in his early years. During the time of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty, he was relied on by Yu Shiji, and after the change of Jiangdu, he took refuge in Yu Wenhua.
After the defeat of Yu Wenhua and the army, Feng Deyi voted for Li Yuan again, and gradually gained Li Yuan's trust. After Li Shimin, the king of Qin, gradually became powerful, he took refuge in Li Shimin and became a member of the Tiance Mansion, but he secretly defended the crown prince Li Jiancheng and wavered between the two.
What's funny is that not only the shrewd Li Shimin didn't know anything about this, but also the intelligence agency of Tiance Mansion and many high-ranking people in Tiance Mansion didn't even see it. Later, Li Shimin ascended the throne, and even named him the right servant of Shangshu, the official to the prime minister, and he was posthumously presented as the great Sikong after his death.
It wasn't until seventeen years after his death that Li Shimin inadvertently learned the truth about his two ends of the yin back then, and in extreme anger, he chased after his gift.
Such a character is really remarkable, and he can achieve things repeatedly, which shows that he is cautious.
In the current situation, this is the case.
On the one hand, the crown prince Li Jiancheng has burned his eyebrows, and he is familiar with Li Shimin's conspiracy, and he is the key person to avoid Li Jiancheng's scheme, this favor helps, as long as the prince retains the position of the prince, it will be a great merit for him, even if the people in Tiance Mansion are dead, he will still continue to soar, so he is reluctant to give up this credit.
But on the other hand, Rao is situation is so urgent, he still protects himself first. He is not at ease if he does not send his closest confidants, confidants and most reliable people to do this. sent such a person, and he was worried that in the process of asking for a meeting, someone with a heart would find out that this henchman was his person, or capture him as the mastermind behind the scenes through other clues, so he was cautious, so he went around in a big circle and found Cao Weituo, who was supported by him.
Cao Weituo suddenly realized and said, "Do you want me to go and ask to see the prince?" This...... There is a huge disparity in status between them, how can I meet the crown prince? ”
Feng Xiushi smiled faintly and said: "The prince is now like a frightened bird, some people give him money and food, and some people tend to follow him, which is a great comfort to him." So, as long as you bring a lot of money to see the prince, does the prince have any reason to see him? And I'll be dressed as your retinue, so it's safest. ”
"Safety? You're safe, how about me? ”
Feng Deyi thought secretly: "If the prince is stable, it's okay, if the prince is finished this time, I will go to the prince, once the king of Qin ascends the throne, how can he spare me?" Even if he is a large number of adults and does not have the same knowledge as me, his men will only be more ruthless than him. ”
Seeing him groaning and hesitating, Feng Xiushi blushed slightly, and said, "What are you worried about?" If it weren't for the support of my master, you would have been safe today, sitting firmly in the West Market, and making money every day. Now is the time for you to think about giving back! Don't worry, if the prince succeeds, you will have the merit of the dragon! If the prince is defeated......"
Feng Xiushi leaned forward slightly, and said in a deep voice: "My Feng family master is quite important in the Tiance Mansion, if someone is looking for trouble for you in the future, my family master only needs to say, 'This person is just a businessman's nature, and he is just good luck and avoids evil, so it is not a trouble!'" Who's going to trouble you? ”
Feng Xiushi stared at him and said, "Cao Weituo, it's time for you to take responsibility." You have only been sitting in the position of the lord of the West Market for only a year and a half, if you lose the support of my Feng clan, hehe, I am afraid that under the support of the wolves, it will not be long before you will be gnawed to the bones. ”
When Cao Weituo heard this, he forced a smile and said: "Cao received great favor, and he was a picture report. I'm not timid, I'm just thinking about how to proceed. ”
Feng Xiushi said: "Don't hesitate, you have to decide as soon as possible!" ”
Cao Weituo nodded and said, "I understand!" I'm here, so it's not convenient to stay long. I will go back to my house and prepare, and as soon as I have made proper contacts, I will send someone to join you with me, and take you to the prince. ”
Feng Xiushi was overjoyed: "Okay!" Prepare for the meeting ceremony with the prince as soon as possible, and I hope it will be completed today! ”
After saying it twice, Cao Weituo immediately got up and said goodbye.
*************
When Cao Weituo hurriedly went downstairs, a pair of fleeing "brothers" had just moved in.
In fact, the inn was already full, because Chang'an was in chaos, and many merchants chose to avoid trouble here.
However, when Li Yu found a gold leaf and said that he would only stay for three days at most, the shopkeeper was a little moved. After Li Yu added another gold leaf, the shopkeeper beckoned a few men to give up their dwellings, and told them to roll up the covers and lay the floor in the lobby at night.
This is a room shared by four guys, it is still very small, there is no window, the room is relatively dim, and the ventilation is not good. A large bunk is only a few points wider than the ordinary bed.
Fifth, Ling Ruo sat down on the edge of the kang and was worried: "Do you want to sleep with him on the kang at night?" Even if he is a good person, after all, he is strong-blooded, lonely and widowed, and in the dead of night, what if he thinks about me, what can I do, after all, I am so beautiful. Oh, oops, I have sex with a big man with him, how can I get up at night, even if there is a partition in the way, he is really ashamed to hear the voice. I really want to take off this dead man's clothes quickly, but ...... How do you meet people in small clothes? How to bathe for a few days here......"
The fifth Ling Ruo was very worried about some unrealistic things, while Li Yu was much more practical, he touched his stomach and said to the fifth Ling Ruo: "You take a rest, I'll go get something to eat." ”
The fifth Ling Ruo also heard that there was not much grain in the store, and the city was in chaos, and the price of grain had risen again, and the stingy shopkeeper said that he had been instructed by his stingy shopkeeper to only take care of accommodation and personal safety, and was no longer responsible for the food and drink of the guests in the store, and Li Yu could only go out to find food by himself.
At this time, the fifth Ling Ruo was blind, Li Yu had become her only support, and when she heard that he was going out, she was subconsciously a little nervous, and said, "The soldiers outside are in a panic, can you find something to eat?" ”
Li Yu is still full of confidence: "Don't worry, this mess will not last long." As for food, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem! ”
……
"Any problem that can be solved with money is a big problem for me!"
Cao Weituo said to his big account with a sad face: "My predecessor was extravagant, and there was not much left in the family. I've just taken the position, and I'm going to be everywhere, and the cost is not small. Chang Jiannan took refuge in me, which helped me a lot to stabilize my position, but his 300 people, eating, drinking, and Lazar, all cost me money. In the past few days, there has been chaos in the city, business is unsuccessful, and the losses are immeasurable. Go to see the prince, this donation is less and you can't take it, more ...... How much does that cost? ”
Not every rich person is generous, and some rich people are a hundred times more stingy than ordinary people.
Cao Weituo is just such a person, let him create an opportunity for Feng Xiushi to get close in the name of the crown prince, for the Feng family, it is indeed safe, but for Cao Weituo, it requires him to take a certain risk.
And this king of the West Market is not only stingy, but also bold.
He is too good at calculating, calculating the gains and losses of his own personal interests, calculating too much, how big the pattern is.
The big account room he chose naturally smelled like him, and he was also a master who collected money and smiled, and felt pain when he spent a penny.
The big account room smacked his lips and said, "Boss, we rely too much on the Feng family, and we can't afford to do the Feng family's explanation." However, we can't ignore our gains and losses. It's not appropriate for the boss to come forward, donate a huge amount of money to ask for a meeting, this loss is too great, in fact, we can find another way, as long as we can let him see the prince, isn't it done? ”
Cao Weituo said: "What way? He also repeatedly told me to get the matter done as soon as possible, and that it was best to take him to the crown prince today. ”
The big account room smiled: "It's been delayed for two days, and he doesn't know that the boss didn't do your best, what does it matter?" I thought, if that's the case, just do what he says, but not in a big way. We can find close staff close to the prince's side, and we don't have to spend so much money on them. And going to see the prince in this way avoids the risk of taking refuge, it's just that the big Jia in the west city, when the war is in turmoil, hugging his thighs in order to protect himself, like this, even if the prince collapses in the future, King Qin will not feel that this matter is serious."
Cao Weituo's eyebrows widened, and he said, "Yes, it's still so proper." Do you know anyone from the Prince's Mansion? ”
The big account room said: "Over the past year or so, we have also handed over a lot of officials, and there will always be people who have dealings with the officials of the East Palace, and I will do it immediately." ”
Cao Weituo nodded again and again, Feng Deyi Yin held both ends, "invest everywhere" to avoid the risk of standing in line, and Cao Weituo, who was supported by him, was even more unbearable than him, people are divided into groups, at such a critical moment, such a person was used to do things, it was also destined by heaven, and there was no way.
At this time, Li Yu went out for a spin, and had already come back with a few big naan, a bowl of pickles, and half a cooked chicken. Li Yu is also prepared for danger in times of peace, and he didn't dare to buy food that is not released, not full, and not cost-effective, although he concluded that this mess would be solved within a few days, but it was only because in his vague memory, he didn't remember too many records of this history, so judging from this, the mess should be solved quickly, so there are only a few strokes in the history books, but after all, he is not too sure.
When Li Yu walked into the door of the "Return Inn" with half a cooked chicken and a few big naans and a bowl of pickles in his arms, several sturdy young men wearing bamboo hats and two pieces of clothing also appeared in front of the Return Inn. One of them, obviously the leader figure, looked up at the four big words "Return Inn" and smiled slightly.
His eyes are like Langxing, his face is like a crown of jade, it is Su Youdao!
