Chapter 589: Stepping on the Plate

Carrying Liu Che's paper with the three words of Dahan Bao written on it, Su Ren was very happy. has used facts to convince Liu Che that his paper is better than bamboo slips, and it seems that there is a business with money completed, and it is still independent, that is, monopoly. As long as anything is monopolized, Rijin Doujin is pediatric. In order to popularize his paper, Su Ren will not sell it too expensive, and those who need it can afford to buy it for a fee.

When I got home, it was already dark, and I put Liu Che's inscription in front of Sima Xiangru: "Let the craftsman engrave the impression according to this font, just these three words." ”

Sima Xiangru was puzzled.

Su Ren said with a smile: "This is His Majesty's imperial pen letter, what does Dr. Sima think?" ”

Showing his ability in front of Sima Xiangru, Su Ren walked towards his study with satisfaction. This is a forbidden place, and no one is allowed to step into half a step without Su Ren's permission, not even Dong Zhongshu and Wen Dang. The people who guarded the study were specially selected by Su Ren, all of whom were bandits in Wenling back then, and none of them would give face, because it was Su Ren who brought them a good life, if they couldn't even do the request of the beloved Mr. Su, then don't be a man.

"Lao Wang, you brothers go to sleep, let Lao Huang and Manniu take your place!" Su Ren walked inside while talking to the two guards guarding the study.

Lao Wang knew that there must be something wrong with Su Ren taking them away, so he didn't say much, and left with the other one. The study was small and private, surrounded by high walls, and the doors and windows were arm-thick logs, and once this thing was placed in the wall, unless it was sawn, any method would make a sound that would alarm the other guards in the courtyard.

Pushing open the door, Huang 13 blew the fire fold, lit the oil lamp, and the room slowly lit up. Su Ren sat on the chair with his buttocks, picked up the water bowl and drank it, he was uncomfortable in the palace, how could he say that Liu Che was also the emperor, he could speak casually, but he couldn't do it. In the court dramas of later generations, there are countless scenes of poisoning, and I don't want to be plotted by others because of eating nonsense.

Spreading out the paper and moistening the brush, Su Ren thought about it, and wrote down the names of Liu Yan, Han Yan, Liu Ling, Xiahou Po, and everyone else he knew on the paper, and then began to draw lines, replacing them with different colors according to the closeness of the relationship between the two. All this is the news provided by the evil and the blind, and even if it is wrong, it will not be too wrong.

As the lines increase, the intricacies of relationships come to life. Su Ren stood up and looked at the lines on the paper. There are many lines under that name, which means that the person's status is high and powerful, and on the contrary, it means that the person is likely to be attached to others, and at best he is a small minion role.

There is no doubt that Liu Concubine has the most lines under her name, and she has surpassed Tian Wei, who is in full swing. What is strange is that Liu Ling, the daughter of King Huainan, also has a lot of lines under her name, almost occupying half of the court, and she is also a minister with real power.

I found another piece of paper, wrote the names of Liu Yan, Tian Wei, and Liu Ling, and sorted the others according to their relatives and distances under their names. Soon a branch diagram came out. Su Ren put down his pen, looked at this picture carefully, and let out a sigh: "I see!" ”

"Lao Huang, go find Mr. Han."

Huang Shisan hurriedly went out to find Han Qing. When Han Qing came, Su Ren was still looking at the picture. This map can be said to be the network map of the Han court, and everyone is inextricably linked with others. Su Ren even counted that two people who didn't know each other at all, and as many as three people could get into a relationship, this was a terrible thing, if there was a big interest who could satisfy everyone's interests, Liu Che's throne was very likely to be lost.

"Sir, you are looking for a subordinate!"

Su Ren nodded: "What's the news today?" ”

Han Qing shook his head: "It's all trivial, there is no important information, there is no abnormality in the people we monitor, only a brawl occurred in the Cuixiang Building of the Bell and Drum Tower, and it was quickly solved by Jing Zhaoyin's duke, and no loss was caused." ”

"Who is actually fighting in Cuixiang Building?"

"It's not a big deal, one is a servant of the Imperial Doctor, and the other is an idler in the city!"

"Oh?" Su Ren frowned: "The servants and idlers in the Imperial Doctor's Mansion can go to the Cuixiang Building of the Bell and Drum Tower to eat?" ”

"The old shopkeeper Cui said that the two of them have been going very hard these days, and they should have made a windfall, so Mr. Don't worry about such a trivial matter."

"Have they been there before? Why did you fight? ”

Han Qing shook his head: "I don't know, no one has paid attention, since people are rich, Cuixianglou has no reason to refuse." ”

Su Ren lowered his head and pondered, and after a long time, he said, "Send someone to check the background of these two people and see whose subordinates they are." ”

"Sir, you mean there's something wrong with those two?"

Su Ren shook his head: "I'm not sure, I just think it's strange, let's check it first, and if there is a problem, you will know if there is a problem." ”

Han Qing nodded hurriedly: "No!" Here's what the men do. ”

After sending Han Qing away, Su Ren felt uneasy in his heart, he always felt that there was a big secret behind these two little people, and he didn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time, so he casually pinned the branch diagram to the wall behind him, took a few steps back and began to observe. The relationship is so messy, maybe there is a relationship they haven't found out, and after watching it for a long time, I still feel like I don't know where to start.

Su Ren remembered one thing, Mo Cong came to Chang'an to rescue his disciples and grandchildren, but once he came to Chang'an, he only nested in Ruyin Houfu, which made people a little strange. Su Ren, the young man named Mo Yu next to Mo Cong, was very interested, escorting an old man from the Song Kingdom to Chang'an was not a simple matter for ordinary adults, let alone a teenager.

Thinking of this, he instructed Huang Shisan to find the blessing of the future. The highest martial arts in his family is Leng Jun, who has stayed by his side since the resignation of the Wen Party. Since coming to Chang'an, Laifu has been unknown, if it weren't for the fact that he saw Laifu practicing boxing in the courtyard when he went out this morning, Su Ren would have almost forgotten about this person. Laifu is not his descendant, and he has not expressed his intention to take refuge, and it is not easy to ask for anything for the sake of the face of the Wen Party. But Su Ren is a businessman, and it is impossible to feed a person who is of no use to him at all.

It was the first time for Rifle to enter this room, and the furnishings inside made Rifle feel strange. Originally, I thought there should be secrets everywhere, but when I took a look, I found that it was surprisingly clean, and there was nothing except tables and chairs. As soon as he looked up and saw the branch diagram on the back wall, Rifle frowned. He followed the Wen Party, and although he didn't know all the names on it, he understood what it was.

Bowing, Su Ren pointed to the chair next to him. For more than a year, Su Ren has been saying everything in the meeting, and he has 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he has more or less developed some momentum: "Brother Laifu is doing well with me?" ”

Laifu glanced at Su Ren and didn't speak.

Su Ren smiled: "Don't worry, I don't mean anything else, I want to ask Brother Laifu for help." ”

"Sir, please speak, as long as you can do it, you will do your best!"

"Don't worry, it's not that hard, I just think you're too boring, find something to keep you moving." Su Ren didn't wait for Laifu to speak, and then said: "There is a young man from Ruyin Houfu, and his martial arts are very good, I want to invite Brother Laifu to test it and see what that young man's ability is?" ”

"Yes!" Rifle is very crisp.

Su Ren looked at Fu: "Why haven't you seen you for a year, so outside?" I remember the scene when Lao Jun watched you and your second brother fighting, it wasn't like this at that time? ”

Laifu took a deep breath: "At this time and that time, I am already satisfied with Mr. Xiade's acceptance, how dare I do anything recklessly?" ”

"Are you still angry? Let's tell you so! Although you are the teacher's personal entourage, the teacher regards you as a nephew, and it is not good to pull you into my affairs without the teacher's permission, and today is also a last resort, I am here to open the door to Brother Laifu at any time, or that sentence As long as the teacher agrees, I will not say a word. ”

Laifu's eyes lit up, and immediately dimmed again: "What can I do?" I can't do business, I can't fight, what does my husband need me to do? ”

"Protect the children in the family?" Su Ren immediately said: "Now is not the time to be in Lao Junguan, you look at how many people in our family are now, Su Kai was transferred by His Majesty, only Leng Jun is a little stretched, Brother Fu should know about the events of the past few days, fortunately, everyone is deadly, otherwise no one knows what the consequences will be, so I want to ask Brother Fu to help me!" ”

Laifu raised his head and looked at Su Ren. He was not stupid, he knew that Su Ren was showing favor to himself, in order to let himself live on face, Su Ren said so politely. He was originally a subordinate, and the best result of following the Wen Party was to return to the Wen Party's hometown for the rest of his life. Looking at the young people in the courtyard giggling, he also wanted to blend in, but without Su Ren's invitation, Laifu's face couldn't be pulled. This year, if it weren't for the Wen Party staying here, he would have left a long time ago.

Laifu got up and bowed to Su Ren

Su Ren hurriedly came to Fula: "It seems that you are willing, okay, I will go to the teacher tomorrow and tell the teacher, since you are willing, then you have to follow our own rules!" ”

Laifu was stunned: "What rules?" ”

"Don't kneel down at every turn, you and I are the same age, I called you Brother Laifu, what have you become of me this worship?"

Rifle smiled embarrassedly.

Su Ren also smiled: "Thinking that the teacher will not disagree, how about Brother Laifu go to Ruyin Houfu tonight?" ”

Laifu nodded: "Well, I'll go now!" ”

The reason why Su Ren asked Laifu to investigate has another purpose, that is, Laifu is a fresh face. Since he came to Chang'an, Laifu has rarely shown up, even if there is a problem in Ruyin Houfu, the Mo family will not be able to find him for a while. At this time, it is not suitable to be a head-on enemy with the Mo family, the strength of the Mo family should not be underestimated, and a bad one may make him very passive.

Although it is a litmus test for Laifu, there are still dangers in it. But Su Ren felt that it was worth the risk, and he was still not at ease if he didn't figure out Mo Cong's details. This can also be regarded as a temptation, to see if what Mo Cong said is a lie or the truth, according to his guess, Mo Cong's coming to Chang'an is no accident, with his intentional appearance in Xuanyuan Mountain, Su Ren understands.

Looking at the branch diagram on the wall, Mo Cong's name in the lower right corner was lonely, and there was only one line connecting with Ru Yinhou. This is a strange thing in itself, how can the gang, which is known as the most mysterious gang in the world, have this strength? Su Ren used to watch Warring States games, and his favorite was the Mo family, which is said to have lasted until the Tang and Song dynasties. There are not many people who have such a lifespan.
