Chapter 277: The True Words of Friends (2nd Update)

Wang Huaqiang waved his hand: "Don't be like this, you also know that Chang Sun Sheng has always been very vigilant about me, and he doesn't want me to participate in Turkic affairs, and I don't want Chang Sun Sheng to learn how to make soap and make money by himself in the future, after all, his relationship with the Turks is so good, if he knows how to make soap, it will be too easy to make this money." ”

Pei Shiju glanced outside the door, the guards were all standing motionless at the entrance of the courtyard from afar, obviously unable to hear the words of himself and Wang Huaqiang, turned his head, and said, "Then how can you let Gao Servant Shoot hand over this matter to you?" ”

Wang Huaqiang said with a smile: "Gao Servant Shot is a hand and eye to the sky, I'm afraid that I came to find you today, he now knows the Dao, you go to Changsun Sheng now, and then go to him together to mention this matter, even if you don't mention me, he will know who should hand over this business to do, rest assured, Gao Servant Shot must have a way to appease Changsun Sheng, and this time I helped Changsun Sheng a lot, and I didn't take credit from him, and it will greatly ease the relationship with him in the future." ”

Pei Shiju nodded, looked at the hourglass in the corner of the hall, and said with a smile: "I've been talking to you for so long today, and I have missed the matter of my entry into Shangshu Province, now I have to go out, I will go to Changsun Sheng in the evening, and I will go to see Gao Servant tomorrow, and I will notify you as soon as there is news." ”

Wang Huaqiang arched his hand: "Everything has Lao Hongda." ”

Pei Shiju's brows furrowed, he walked up to Wang Huaqiang, and said in a low voice: "There is another matter, I wanted to inform you, but you were not there a while ago, and it was about Wang Shiji." ”

Wang Huaqiang's face changed, and he also lowered his voice: "Hongdae still remembers this, it's really troublesome." ”

Pei Shiju waved his hand: "Hey." My brother's business is my business. Although I can't openly turn against Wang Shiji. But it's okay to provide you with some information, and you can do it as you please. ”

Wang Huaqiang nodded: "What's going on with this thief lately?" ”

Pei Shiju said in a low and hurried voice: "After Wang Shiji was recalled from the position of governor of Jingzhou a few years ago, in order to appease his emotions, the emperor gave him a position in Shangzhu State and let him go home to live idlely, and Wang Shiji himself has been closed in the past few years and has not participated in the affairs of the court. ”

Wang Huaqiang sneered: "Although this guy is arrogant, he also knows how to advance and retreat. I heard that he has never broken contact with the generals of Guan Long, I heard that he has never broken contact with He Ruobi and Shi Wansui, which is my horse hunting ground, and he goes to the land twice in three days. Hongdae, that's not what you're telling me. ”

Pei Shiju hooked the corners of his mouth and continued: "I heard that Wang Shiji is also a little afraid of the emperor's increasingly impatient temper now, for fear that one day disaster will befall him. Don't ask about politics. ”

"Just last night, the emperor heard about Wang Shiji's current situation. Thinking that he had a drinking disease, he invited him into the palace for dinner, and stayed in the palace to stay in the palace, and ordered the imperial doctor to treat him, but Wang Shiji was afraid of being found out, so he didn't wait for the imperial doctor to come and said that his alcohol illness was cured, and he got up and walked a few laps, and he was very energetic, and he didn't have the usual confused appearance, so the emperor let him go home. ”

When Wang Huaqiang heard the news, he was first overjoyed, and then his expression became solemn and silent.

Pei Shiju saw Wang Huaqiang like this, and said with a smile: "Xingman, what do you think about this matter?" ”

Wang Huaqiang replied: "When I heard about this at the beginning, I was quite happy, because Wang Shiji pretended to be sick and showed it to the emperor at home, presumably the emperor would be unhappy, and even punish him, but I thought about it carefully, I'm afraid things won't be so optimistic, maybe the emperor will use Wang Shiji again." ”

Pei Shiju's face changed slightly: "Oh? For what. ”

Wang Huaqiang sighed: "The emperor misses the old, as long as it is not a crime of rebellion, you can open the net, Wang Shiji's approach is to avoid disaster, the emperor can see that there is no major war in the country now, and the emperor can also allow a military general like Wang Shiji to live at home, for him, if Wang Shiji does not fight for power, it is reliable."

is a person like He Ruobi, the emperor warned him several times not to come out to fight for power, but he turned a deaf ear, a few years ago, he watched Han Baohu become the governor of Liangzhou, and his psychology was unbalanced, and he went to the emperor to take the initiative to ask for officials, and even said that he wanted to be the governor of Jingzhou, but the emperor refused on the spot, and afterwards the emperor also sighed that Jingzhou was a place of secession, and He Ruobi's heart could be punished. ”

Pei Shiju nodded: "I also heard Gao Servant shoot about this, General He Ruo is a little too ignorant, he complains that the emperor is too thin on him, and last year, the emperor provoked him to arrest him and put him in prison, and personally interrogated him for what he complained about Yang Su as Shangshu's right servant shooting is inappropriate."

As a result, He Ruobi also said in front of the emperor that Yang Su was his brother-in-law, and he knew best how many catties and taels he had, so he said that Yang Su was not suitable, and it was only fair if he was the right servant of Shangshu. was so angry that the emperor almost ordered him to be beaten, but the queen persuaded Queen Dugu for a long time, and the emperor lost his anger in a few days and put He Ruobi home.

Xingman, these are rumors that only circulate in the palace and among the powerful, how did you know about it? ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled slightly: "Don't forget my Bliss Villa, but it is a place where dignitaries and nobles gather, Daxing City is very small, and there are so many officials, so these news are all circulated as jokes among those high-ranking officials of the clan during the banquet, and I can naturally know about it." ”

Pei Shiju sighed: "Okay, you still have to take good care of your place in the future, and this kind of thing will just be spread, if the matter of the military state reaches the ears of the traitors of the enemy country, it will not be good." ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled "hehe": "I'm not an ordinary tavern there, not everyone can come in, officials above the third grade have a special club, the fourth or fifth grade is an ordinary VIP building, and the sixth grade or less are all ordinary private rooms in the outside hall, and they can't be strung together with each other. Hongdae, you never go to my place to play, why don't you come around with a few colleagues another day? ”

Pei Shiju shook his head: "Xingman, in fact, I have always wanted to tell you about this matter, your place is a high-end Qinglou to put it bluntly, and the children of self-motivated families and real important ministers will not go to that kind of place, I think you also know that most of the clans who go to you are some Nan Chen and Xiao Liang's clans, and then there are some second-generation officials and rich sons who are not too good in Daxing City, you can really make money by opening this place, but you can make friends with promising officials, and open up contacts for your progress in the future, And what good can it be? ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled bitterly: "Hongdae, you were born as the son of a family, don't worry about the right family befriending you, even a villain like Wang Shiji doesn't dare to take the initiative to provoke your Hedong Pei family, but I'm different, I'm just the son of a businessman, there will be no son of a family to take the initiative to befriend me, and it is already a coincidence to know you Hongdae." I can only use money to smash a path to ascent, and Elysium is the place that can bring me money. ”

Pei Shiju sighed: "Ill-gotten gains, will eventually pass away with the wind, Xingman, I am your friend, I will tell you this, you must know that the Dao is prosperous inside and outside, and there are not a few people who look at your business, although Gao Servant Shot has never commented on your Elysium Villa, but he once told Liu Shu that he wanted these young officials to stay away from your place, which shows that he doesn't like your place either." ”

Wang Huaqiang sighed: "If it's not for making money, I don't like it either." I understand this reason, and when I make enough money selling soap, I will go to other businesses, but now my business is just beginning, and I can't do without the money of Elysium for a while, which Hongdae can understand. ”

Pei Shiju smiled slightly: "If you want to meet any friends in the officialdom in the future, it's good for everyone to go to your hunting racetrack together, I think it's good, ten days later, I will call a few friends who have a good time to go to your racetrack to play, and when the time comes, everyone will pretend to meet by chance, so that the relationship between us will not be exposed." ”

Wang Huaqiang nodded thoughtfully: "Then everything is up to Hongda's arrangement, and I'll go and prepare." (To be continued......)
