Yang ordered Zhang Tang to return to his mansion in the east of the city, his face had long since lost the gloomy and dissatisfied look, and ordered his subordinates to prepare pen, ink and paper, and then drove the servants out of the study. He calmly spread out the paper, dipped his pen in ink, and wrote a letter to Wang Jun, who was far away in Bianjing, without adding any dots.

In his letter, he gave a general description of what happened today's day, and at the end of the letter he wrote: "...... From the point of view, the new Yan Fan was not established in time, and his wisdom was not as good as that of the Chinese, and the heart of the border was contingent, and the ambition of entering the book was not. Si people are mediocre and inferior, and they are not enough to look at each other. I thought that the domain was not related to it, but it was not intended to be in Longgang, so I don't think I need to think about it......"

After writing, Zhang Tang pondered for a long time, but after all, he did not write the date. Immediately, he folded the letter and put it in a bag, called the scholar who was waiting outside the study, and said, "Tell Zhang Hong to come to see me immediately!" ”

After a while, a man with a large body walked into the study and saluted: "Master......"

Zhang Tang didn't say much, handed him the bag and said, "...... Take this letter with you, set off for Beijing at night, and arrive in Bianliang within three days to hand it over to the Privy Council's Mansion - it doesn't matter if you have this bag outside, the letter inside must be handed over to the prince himself, the matter is important, you must be careful, if something goes wrong, you won't come back......"

The man bowed down to receive the letter, said nothing, saluted, and turned away, only to pass by a middle-aged scribe with a mediocre appearance and a slight lameness.

The scribe turned his head to watch the man leave and stepped into the study, but saw Zhang Tang standing tall and seemed to be pondering. He frowned and said, "Proprietor, have you escaped from the table?" ”

Zhang Tang raised his head and glanced at him, and said with a smile: "Chenyang is here, I just heard that you are unwell today and rested early, so I didn't call you - yes, during the banquet, Longgang Lao'er came to stir up the situation, so I took the opportunity to escape!" ”

The scribe's name is Jiang Xu, and the word is Chenyang. He is the chief mastermind in Zhang Shu's curtain. Listen to what Zhang said. He frowned and said, "The proprietor has already written a letter to Prime Minister Wang?" ”

Zhang Tang nodded: "I have already asked Zhang Hong to send it!" ”

Jiang Xu was silent, Zhang Tang smiled and slowly told him about the place where Li Wenge was greeted today, and at the same time retold the evaluation of Li Wenge in the letter he wrote to Wang Jun. Finally, he smiled: "...... That's the case, no matter what kind of dispatch there is from the Wang Xianggong's side, it will be five days before the letter can be sent at the earliest, and at that time, this trouble will already be outside the Tiger Prison! ”

Jiang Xu's expression softened, and he bowed his head lightly and said, "It's really a good way to shirk it like this." It's just that Wang Xianggong is only afraid that he will also be annoyed by the proprietor, and he still needs to dredge it up in the Jingshi. ”

Zhang Tang smiled: "I am the commander of Jingxian County, except for the granting and degrading of the dethronement, I have to go through the process under the Zhongshu Gate, when Wang Xianggong is still recruiting me, he will not easily use such a big hand, and the future will be for a while!" ”

Jiang Xu nodded: "Li Wenge, what is going on?" ”

Zhang Tang's face became solemn. I thought about it for a while. Fang Cai said slowly: "It's hard to say......"

"This man is ordinary-looking, thin, and does not look like a hero. He speaks and acts informally, has no scruples about Longgang Lao'er, and doesn't seem to know the depth of the imperial court. Although I don't know the soldiers, I can also feel the killing spirit of these people, and they have never been on the battlefield with real knives and guns, so they never have such a temperament. I dare to conclude that Quanluoyang is afraid that he will not be able to find a single such soldier. These pro-soldiers obeyed this Li Huairen, and it seemed that they could go to the soup with just one look...... There is no need for verbal commands at all, it is a real tiger and wolf army......"

He exhaled lightly: "Although this person is thin, he sits there with a straight waist and does not squint, he has the extraordinary bearing of Yuanting Zhiyue, and there are many generals who can fight in the forbidden army, and the two Han and Zhao's father and son are considered to be martial artists, and the wine banquet is still crooked, this person is just a slave-born general, since the rise has only been a short period of more than a year, but he has practiced an unparalleled soldier posture - I have been thinking at the banquet, this person is definitely not a martial artist who is halfway monk, If the ancestor is not a general in the army, he was born in the battalion, and he entered Li Bin's mansion as a slave by mistake......"

Jiang Xu nodded: "To be able to go from an unknown puppet to the general of the government within a year, it is definitely not something ordinary people can do, if this person is not a puppet pushed out by the Yanzhou side, or he has concealed his own life experience, it is not known what the hidden intention may be!" ”

“…… Hidden ......"

Zhang Tang chewed these two words carefully and asked slowly, "What does Chenyang mean?" ”

Jiang Xu shook his head: "There is no meaning in being lowly, just proposing a possible inside story!" ”

Zhang Tang waved his hand to let Jiang Xu sit down, and then instructed the scholar to serve tea, and he slowly sat opposite Jiang Xudi, and said with a smile: "Chenyang and I are nominally separated, but in fact they are no different from their families, you don't have to say anything, but you might as well talk about it!" ”

Jiang Xu said: "The proprietor, please think about it carefully, if this Li Wenge is really from a martial arts family, and he has been skilled in the camp since he was a child, but he unfortunately fell into Li Bin's mansion as a slave in the middle of his family, then what is his family background?" And when did it fall in the middle? Even if he is defeated, since he is a general in the battalion, why should he sell himself as a slave? ”

Zhang Tang frowned, tapped the bookcase lightly with one hand, and said softly: "Talk about it......"

Jiang Xu said: "It can only be said that he has a hardship, and this hardship is not enough for outsiders, otherwise it will cause him to be killed......

Zhang Tang's eyes lit up, and he said slowly: "He is Chinese New Year's Eve two years old today......

Jiang Xu smiled and nodded: "According to the number of years, he was just seventeen years old in the first year of Tianfu, and according to the rules of the crown ceremony at the age of eleven, he should have been in the camp for six years......"

“…… If so, it makes sense, but why did he go to Guanzhong again? ”

"I heard that Sang Weihan, the minister of Tianfu Quan, and Li Bin, the land of Yanzhou

Making Friends......"

Zhang Tang nodded slowly, and then smiled: "Even so." But what does it have to do with us? ”

Jiang Xu shook his head slowly: "The proprietor, Prime Minister Wang Cheng is a mean person, and he is the most unreasonable, if he refuses to help him, he is an enemy of him, not to mention that the proprietor is a local commander, even the ministers of the Chinese book have also suffered enough from his temper." Relying on the emperor's favor, he didn't even pay much attention to Feng Linggong, let alone the proprietor. Say a word of forgiveness. The proprietor is in his eyes. I'm afraid it's not as good as a worm. Although you stated your opinion in your letter, you are making your own decisions after all! Prime Minister Wang asked the proprietor to find a way to get rid of this surnamed Li in Luoyang, and now he listens to the proprietor's meaning, not to mention the identity of this person, even the guards around him are far from being able to deal with the power of the proprietor. It's just that these sufferings are just what we feel. Prime Minister Wang won't believe it! ”

Zhang Tang nodded: "Yes...... That's why I wrote a letter to him, hoping that this Xiufeng Xiangguo would be polite to me, the one who took refuge! ”

He laughed self-deprecatingly.

Jiang Xu shook his head: "I don't think it's very useful, Wang Xianggong is now suppressing Lanzhou everywhere, and he won't care if the proprietor is willing to take refuge in him, otherwise he won't directly send someone to give an order to the proprietor, and he won't mention any exchange conditions." In Wang Xianggong's opinion, Wu Dayin, an old guy with deep roots and great wisdom and foolishness, can't play. But a person of humble rank and young and unqualified like the proprietor is just taking advantage of it. The proprietor really did what he said. In case the court blames, he dares to guarantee that the prince will die to protect the proprietor, but if the proprietor does not do it. Then the king will no longer regard the proprietor as a doorman, but will find a way to make it difficult to deal with the proprietor, this man is righteous, but not very reasonable......"

Zhang Tang frowned and said, "What does Chenyang Land mean?" ”

Jiang Xu asked: "Why does Xianggong Xiufeng have to put this Li Wenge to death?" ”

Zhang Tang smiled bitterly: "The Gao family once bribed him, he accepted the money, but he failed to prevent this person from becoming Yanzhou Jiedu, firstly, he lost face, and secondly, he lost his credit with the Gao family, but he is a person who values face and credit very seriously." Therefore, although Gao Yunquan is dead, and no one in the Gao family can stir up Li Wenge, he has never been reconciled, when Li Wenge was in Yanzhou, he was beyond his reach, and at this moment this person came to the hinterland of Kanto, if he didn't breathe this way, how could he be worthy of his reputation that would be repaid? ”

Jiang Xu shook his head: "Although this reason is reasonable, I can't fully believe it!" ”

He paused and said, "But since Wang Xianggong wants to deal with Li Wenge, then a better way than secretly assassinating him is to frame him!" ”

"You mean ——?"

"Yes, whether Li Wenge himself is related to the Later Tang Dynasty royal family or not, as long as this rumor spreads, whether it is Jinshang or Lanzhou, it is impossible to use it with confidence, killing people does not have to use a knife, rumors are a sharp weapon to take people's lives but do not see blood, this matter is not risky at all, and the effect is more than a hundred times better than killing Li Wenge with a knife. The crime of assassinating Jiedu is not small, once the matter is revealed, even if the king tries to protect him, the proprietor will inevitably go far away from other counties, but send some eyes and ears, release some rumors, but there is no sin at all, even if the court investigates, it is mostly implemented on the proprietor, such a headless public case, it is not uncommon to break for a hundred years, who will demand the proprietor for the sake of the domain town of Yanzhou? This is not against the will of the king, in fact, it is even better than the other way, and it is not easy to show the horse's feet - even if the lord does not kill Li Wenge in the end, the prince cannot blame the proprietor for this matter......"

"Brilliant plan! Sure enough, it's a brilliant plan! Zhang Tang laughed.

At this moment, the scholar outside the door reported: "Master, Liu Bantou is back!" ”

Zhang Tang was stunned, this Liu Bantou was sent by him in the name of Luoyang County to monitor the people in Yanzhou in the name of protecting Li Wenge, why did he come back without permission now?

"Tell him to come to the study——!" Zhang Tang's tone was slightly dissatisfied.

"Yes!"

Not long after, Liu Bantou entered the study, knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Tang: "See Ming Mansion-", Zhang Tang waved his hand: "Why did you come back?" ”。

Liu Bantou said with a sad face: "I took the brothers all the way to escort the general and his party back to Henan Station, and then stood outside the pavilion station, and after a while, the general and the adults came out again, and asked the lowly brothers to be dismissed, not allowed to follow, and the lowly did not dare to accept, so I took a few brothers to quietly follow, and followed the brothers to the ...... It's ......."

Speaking of this, he couldn't say any more, he looked at Zhang Tang with blank eyes, but he didn't dare to say anything.

Zhang Tang frowned: "Say-what are you doing?" ”

Liu Bantou shrunk his neck. Crying and laughing, he said: "The general and Master Lu went to the Manqing Academy, and the lowly officials just got a little closer, and the Kang Rong next to the general appeared like a ghost, and put the knife on the neck of the lowly office, asking the lowly to leave as soon as possible, if you dare to approach the Manqing Courtyard again, you will immediately ask for your humble life...... Lord Mingjian, the master of the Ming Mansion, the leader of these border counties. It's all unprovoked. No matter how unreasonable you are, you can only admit it. I had to arrange some secret sentinels, and then come back first to report to the Ming Mansion! ”

"——? of Man Ching Academy" Zhang Tang was stunned for a long time with his mouth open, and then smiled bitterly, "This Li Jiedu is so good!" ”

Jiang Xu still frowned, and asked, "Liu Bantou, can you be sure that the general's side is Lord Lu?" ”

Liu Bantou turned to Jiang Xu and said, "Mr. Jiang." This villain will never be mistaken, the one who is pulling his old man by the general's side is indeed the envoy Lu. ”

Jiang Xu asked again: "Liu Bantou, where are all the people under you at the moment?" ”

Liu Bantou frowned, and said puzzledly: "Monitor the periphery of the Manqing Academy——"

Jiang Xu asked: "What about Henan Yi, how many people did you keep?" ”

Liu Bantou was stunned and said, "There is no one over there, the villain thinks." Neither the general nor Lord Lu are

Finish. There's no need for anyone to watch over there—"

"Confused!" Jiang Xu stomped his feet and sighed, "Why don't you want to think about it, that Lord Lu is a person sent by the imperial court. He was always by the general's side, where could the general go, what could he do? ”

That Liu Bantou blinked his eyes, and he still didn't seem to understand, Jiang Xu sighed and said: "Lu Yizhi is also a famous person in the court, he went to Manqing Academy, this is not surprising, when did this General Li also have this lustful and greedy problem?" Have you heard of him having this hobby? Besides, what a big deal it is to enter Beijing to see His Majesty this time, how could he have the heart to follow Lu Yi straight to be merry and happy halfway? Isn't that? ”

Zhang Tang said with some doubts: "I don't know if I was pulled over by Lu Duan......"

Liu Bantou nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, it seems that the meaning of the general is reluctant, and he is dragged away by Lord Lu!" ”

"He's a great general with a festival in his hand, if he really doesn't want to, who can drag him away?" Jiang Xu smiled bitterly.

"Could it be that this person is really a sanctimonious and lustful womanizer?" Zhang Tang also secretly beat the drum in his heart......

……

At this moment, Comrade Li Wenge, the "sanctimonious" and "greedy and lustful" general of the Right Xiaowei Eighth Route Army, was sitting cross-legged on the mat with his waist straight, and his eyes were blazing at the bustard kneeling in front of him.

The man surnamed Liang Di Bustard peeked at the gloomy general, but he didn't dare to touch his terrifying eyes.

A "young lady" who was not glamorous but slightly pretty, stood behind Li Wenge and stood there quietly.

It wasn't until this evening that Li Wenge was very depressed to find out that from the very beginning, the title "Miss" could not be called casually, and in this era, women from good families or girls or ladies could never be called Miss, which was a special title for women in Qinglou.

As a man with a very normal state of information, Li Wenge was no stranger to Luoyang Jingu Garden in his own time, although he himself had never been there, and was often ridiculed behind his back for his congenital lack of function in some aspects. He could never have imagined that he had traveled through a thousand years, but he had returned to Luoyang and swaggered into the red light district of this era.

Could it be that he came back from a big circle, and in the end it was to visit such a kiln?

It seems that the term "Miss" has indeed not been ruined by later generations, and this word seems to have been tailor-made for Qinglou women since its birth......

These emotional thoughts swirled in his mind, but the words that came out of his mouth did not have anything to do with the topic.

"Oh...... Since your Manqing Courtyard is the largest and most luxurious place in Luoyang City, how can you not be the leader? ”

"General Hui-" The bustard knelt down, "There are seventeen green buildings in Luoyang City, and the Manqing Courtyard is indeed the largest. However, the head of this line is not who is the biggest and who is the richest, this is a matter that can only be decided by the public discussion of the seventeen family members. It doesn't matter if the person who is in charge of the line is rich or poor, but the seniority must not be too low, and he must have prestige among the seventeen families, and he must be a peer who everyone unanimously thinks is fair and has great prestige in order to assume the position of the head of the line......"

"Hmm-" Li Wenge felt very fresh, in his own time, the boss of an industry was undoubtedly one of the strongest and richest people in the industry, and he couldn't imagine that in the most humble industry of prostitutes in ancient society, this principle was not pursued, especially in such an era when strength determined everything, it was even more incredible.

"Then which bustard from the Qinglou is the current leader?"

The bustard raised his head and glanced at Li Wenge lightly, bowed his head and replied: "Back to the general, the rules of the line, the bustard and the teapot cannot be the head of the line......"

"Oh?"

Li Wenge was stunned again.

"The rule set by Patriarch Yiwu is that the head of the line can only be selected from among the young ladies in the line, and it has been the case for thousands of years, and it has never been easier!"

Although he has long known that Guan Zhong is the ancestor of the prostitute industry, but when he heard this bustard repeatedly claiming that "Yiwu Patriarch", Li Wenge still had goosebumps, how could he not connect the Spring and Autumn Sage, even Confucius admired the pipe, with the special industry of Qinglou, he coughed lightly and asked: "Who is the first leader?" ”

"It's Aunt Zhuang of the original Yuqing Pavilion—"

The bustard replied.

"Oh-" Li Wenge nodded and said slowly: "I want to meet this Aunt Zhuang, and I hope that your hospital will invite you on my behalf-"

The bustard lowered her head and replied: "Yes, the maid will go and invite, the general, please sit down later, Aunt Zhuang does not live close, I am afraid that it will take some time to go back and forth!" ”

Li Wenge nodded: "It's okay!" ”

The bustard got up, raised his head and whispered to the young lady standing behind Li Wenge: "Yiniang, you are waiting for the general, don't be lazy!" ”

The woman behind Li Wenge bowed her head in response, and the bustard saluted Li Wenge again, and then slowly walked to the door, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but show a very abrupt smile, she hurriedly covered her face, went out of the room and closed the door.

Only Li Wenge and the woman who served him were left in the room, and Lord Jieshuai suddenly felt uncomfortable, coughed lightly and said, "This girl, go ahead, I don't need you to serve here!" ”

The woman smiled faintly and said softly, "Does the general know what Mother Fang Cai is laughing at?" ”

"Oh——?" Li Wenge was stunned for a moment, not knowing what this woman named "Yiniang" meant when she mentioned this matter.

"Mom is laughing—" The woman said tremblingly, covering her mouth, "a dignified general of the dynasty, a great man who kills people—"

Speaking of this, she couldn't help laughing, gasped for a moment, and then continued with a smile: "...... It turned out to be a chick! ”
