Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Capital, Long Time No See
Shen Wuyan returned to the capital, except for encountering a group of bandits halfway and losing Lan Daoxing, but he had no regrets.
When the carriage drove into the capital, the sky was already dark, and when passing by the smoky building, Shen Wuyan deliberately got out of the carriage and walked around with Yue'er, because he had not trimmed for a long time, his beard gradually grew, and no one recognized him.
After that night, Hanyan House changed owners, and as for Liu Hanyan's final whereabouts, he said that he followed Song Qian, but they were all rumors, and now even Song Qian disappeared in the capital because of Shen Wuyan.
The great genius who threw out three masterpieces in one night, after all, still left in disgrace, without taking away a single cloud, thinking about what to take, I am afraid it is also very difficult.
was accused by Shen Wuyan of murdering his senior brother in public, and misappropriating his senior brother's poems and writings to become famous, and immediately went from being touted by the literati in the capital to being spurned by the literati in the capital.
In fact, at first, some literati still defended Song Qian, but later there were rumors that Song Qian's teacher Li Chunfang expelled Song Qian from the school, and then Song Qian disappeared from the capital.
Because of this, Shen Wuyan's words were gradually confirmed, and Shen Wuyan's affirmation by His Majesty today can be regarded as washing away the previous slanders.
Walk into the smoking building, and then walk familiarly to the terrace. The furnishings were the same as they had been a few months ago, except that there was only one man on the terrace who was silently wielding a knife.
The sword technique is not as good as the number of roads in the Central Plains, it is mixed with some Tang tricks, and there are some fighting skills that only Shen Wuyan can understand, in short, it looks chaotic.
But it is so disorganized, but it seems very sharp, very effective, changing the previous trick routine only has the decadence of viewing interest, but has a practical effect.
The man didn't seem to sense Shen Wuyan's arrival, and it wasn't until this set of sword techniques was exhausted that he wiped his sweat, then carefully put away the sharp katana, and turned around to see the two people standing on the side.
"Childe ......" The man frowned slightly, and then said with great joy: "You are finally back, the capital is really suffocating, and you don't dare to go out at will all day long......
This person was Wang Tian sent by Shen Wuyan from Suzhou.
The reason why Wang Tian came back to the capital was because Yue'er got the news that Wang Shaoqing sent over about Shen Wuyan's presence in the capital in Suzhou, and then Yue'er came over with Wang Tian.
Recalling that leaving Wang Tian in Suzhou, Shen Wuyan once again believed in his hunch, and secretly rejoiced in what a great decision it was to keep this good player in Suzhou.
“…… Losing those family wealth, Hu Yuming was naturally unwilling, so he often took people to the eldest young master's side to make trouble, fortunately, the eldest young master had a good temper, but he just reported to the official, and the official heard that it was the Shen family's business, so he found them to talk, and then it got better. ”
Wang Tian said as he invited Shen Wuyan to a seat, and continued: "It's just that I didn't expect the Hu family to be born safely, but the Li family's business has been declining, and then there was a problem with the supply of raw silk, so I guessed that there was an internal ghost." ”
When Wang Tian said this, Yue'er's face changed slightly, and she snorted coldly: "After the winter solstice left the Li family, I felt that Yu Ruoxing was not a good thing, and the inner ghost was really him. ”
Shen Wuyan actually had a hunch for a long time, but Yu Ruoxing was a shopkeeper of the Li family after all, and his relationship with Li Wan'er was not bad, so he was not too wary at that time.
"Who would have thought that Yu Ruoxing would have a relationship with Hu Yuming, and that Fang Long from Yulong Street would actually gather that group of outlaws to join in this matter."
Shen Wuyan smiled lightly: "Yu Ruoxing has been in charge of the Li family's business in Zhejiang, so naturally he will have a certain relationship with Hu Yuming, which is not surprising. ”
Wang Tiandao: "These people are worthy of being treacherous, one is to do tricks and feet on raw silk, so that the supply of raw silk of the Li family is insufficient, so that the silk cloth needed by the imperial merchants has not been enough, and on the other hand, they often send some gangsters to make trouble in several of our teahouses in Suzhou." ”
Listening to Wang Tian's narration, Shen Wuyan had a general understanding of what happened to this matter.
It turned out that after Shen Wuyan left Suzhou, Hu Yuming, Fang Long, and Yu Ruoxing launched a revenge against Shen Wuyan.
First of all, they took advantage of Hu Yuming's convenience in Zhejiang to disturb the business that the Shen family took over, although it was later solved by Shen Wuliang in Wang Tian's words, but it would not be so simple to think about, after all, it alarmed the government.
Hu Yuming also didn't expect that Shen Wuyan would have such a friendship with the government, so he lost his hand in this matter.
So the target was shifted to the Li family, and now the Li family has married Shen Wuyan, to a large extent, the two families have a sense of mutual survival, although the Shen family's industry seems to be getting bigger now, and it will be far better than the Li family in the future.
It's just that judging from the current situation, if the Li family falls, it will be difficult for the Shen family to develop for a while, and then use other methods to gradually eat back the lost family wealth.
Hu Yuming's idea is of course very good, but he has lost the foundation of raw silk and mulberry fields, and it is not a simple matter to want to make it bigger again, so there will be support behind it.
Shen Wuyan targeted several wealthy businessmen in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, among which the Zhou family was the first to recommend, but now there is no evidence, and it cannot be conclusive, not to mention that the flooding of Taihu Lake is gradually subsiding, and the teahouse will cooperate with the Zhou family in the future, so he did not mention this matter.
"I originally thought that they were already going too far like this, but who knew that they actually smuggled the stolen goods that the group of outlaws on Yulong Street had stolen before, and I don't know when they smuggled them to the Shen family's shops on Yulong Street."
Yue'er chuckled: "This is nothing more than trying to frame the Shen family for colluding with bandits, but fortunately, I found out in time that Wang Tian caught a few bandits who were transporting stolen goods, and handed them over to the government in time to deal with them, and the matter was settled." ”
Shen Wuyan sighed slightly, these things seem to be easy to solve, but they are actually full of danger. I didn't think about it before I came to buy the land on Yulong Street, but I just felt that the low price was cheap, and I might make a lot of money in the future.
It's just that he didn't expect to be used by Hu Yuming and others to hide the stolen goods there, so that Shen Wuyan could be framed, and once the evidence was confirmed, Shen Wuyan could only end up with the Hu family at that time.
And this depends on Yue'er and Wang Tian, with Yue'er's insight and Wang Tian's military judgment, and even counting the previous relationship with the prefect Xu Shangzhen.
"Now that the affairs in the capital are bigger, the Hu family can handle them easily...... If it's a big deal, swallow it all, how did Yu Ruoxing solve it? ”
Recalling the scene of meeting Yu Ruoxing that day, Shen Wuyan still remembers it vividly, speaking of which he is not a bad person, perhaps because he met Shen Wuyan, so the brilliance on his body was covered by Shen Wuyan, so he became hateful.
The reprimand of the seventh uncle and the ignorance of the clansmen gradually made this young man who was only a one-sided friend of Shen Wuyan hate Li Wan'er's marriage later.
Wang Tian sighed slightly: "Originally, I heard that he met the eldest lady of the Li family, so he didn't plan to ask the teacher for the crime, and the old man of the Li family also pleaded for mercy at that time, but later I heard that the eldest lady said that such a person could not stay, so he sent him to the prison, or the eldest lady went in person...... But I heard that it came out again a few days ago. ”
Hearing that Yu Ruoxing was sent to the cell by Li Wan'er at will, Shen Wuyan was also shocked, and after a long time of reflection, he understood the reason, and he was afraid that he would cut off contact with the Li family because of this matter, so the Li family would be in danger.
Another point is naturally for Shen Wuyan, how smart Li Wan'er is, she can naturally see how Yu Ruoxing feels about herself, and sending him to prison will cut off his mind, as for why he came out of prison, I think it is also Li Wan'er's relationship.
Shen Wuyan didn't talk about these issues, but just listened to Yue'er and Wang Tian talk for a while.
"How is Luo Wenlong's investigation over there?"
Hearing Shen Wuyan suddenly ask about this, it was also Shen Wuyan who explained what he had done after leaving the capital, and hurriedly responded: "All the correspondence with Yan Shifan is here, but I also found some letters with Governor Hu. ”
"There is also a connection with Hu Zongxian?" Shen Wuyan took the few letters handed over by Wang Tian, and after confirming that they were correct, he sighed and said: "Burn all the letters with Hu Zongxian, leave only the correspondence with Yan Shifan, and then send them to Xu Cifu." ”
"Xu Cifu?" Yue'er was stunned, this kind of top figure in the Ming Dynasty was indeed a shock, and it sounded a little creepy at this time.
Shen Wuyan smiled and said, "Yan Shifan or Yan Maoqing...... None of them are alone, and the force behind them is not something you and I can fight against, even if we know what to do now, we may have found that opportunity a long time ago. ”
After leaving Hanyan Building, Shen Wuyan was not in a hurry to go back to the courtyard, first went to Yueyun Restaurant with Yue'er for a meal, and had a general understanding of the results of this year's imperial examination before going back.
At this time, in King Yu's Mansion, although it was getting late, Gao Gong was still discussing with King Yu.
"I heard that Shen Wuyan is back again, and I want to come to Your Majesty's side for a long time, and now I'm afraid I can't be the same as before."
King Yu smiled faintly and said, "What was it like before, imprisoned?" I not only gave him an official position, but also took action to protect him after he fell into the prison of Jinyiwei, even if he is close to his father now, it will not change much...... Speaking of which, I just think of him as a friend. ”
"Your Highness, this idea is indeed very good." Gao Gong chuckled and said: "Shen Wuyan, even if he can't figure it out to me, he went to Shandong just to find a Taoist priest, and was robbed by Yan Shifan, and then he took down the Hanyan Building, thinking that it was just for money, as for participating in politics...... I'm afraid I don't have this mind. ”
King Yu nodded and said, "Shao Fang said this before, I didn't think so, but after he came to the capital, he observed for a while and found that this was indeed the case...... I am afraid that there is nothing to attract him except silver. ”
After a little hesitation, King Yu suddenly said: "A few days ago, the imperial doctor came to check her body, and Concubine Li seems to be pregnant. ”
