~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Early in the morning, Zhang Fang took the sixth day of the first month to the palace of the king of Shangguanli Front Street to make amends. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The driver of the car was replaced by Deng Zhan, and the deputy of the car was the one-eyed Zongba. On the sixth day of the first month, Ah Zhen walked with his sword and chariot. One of these two people shoots from a distance, and the other is invincible in close combat, with these two people to protect them, if they come to the assassin again, whether it is a long-range sniper or a close stab, there is only one end - death!
Shangguan-ri is directly east of Weiyang Palace, and when you go out and raise your head, you can see the wall of Weiyang Palace, with Jingzhaoyin Temple in the east and Gyeonggi Heavy Land Arsenal in the north. Those who can live in this kind of place are naturally the powerful. In fact, the residence of the powerful in Chang'an has always been the first in Qi and the second in Shangguan, and they are not idle people who can have a mansion here.
As the sixth elder of the Wang family, Wang Li only hung the name of "Zhonglang", and led less than 500 stones (Zhonglang is more than 600 stones, but less than 500 stones), and has no real position, just a noble and idle official. It's just that the backstage of this idle official is too hard, and even Jing Zhaoyin has to give him three points.
Zhang Fang sat in the car, holding a volume of materials in his hand, looking at it intently and seriously, a pair of snowy sword eyebrows frowned slightly.
What he was holding in his hand was Wang Li's information, which Deng Zhan hastily collected, although it was in a hurry and it was not complete, but these were just the ones that made Zhang Fang frown. There are many brothers in the Wang family, some of whom are in high positions, such as Yang Pinghou and Wang Feng, the eldest of the guards. There is also the mother of the world, that is the queen and the king; There are also many lonely characters, such as the second eldest Wang Man, who is not an official, does not hold a post, lives in seclusion in the north, and rarely interacts with a few wealthy brothers and sisters in the family.
Of course, the dragon gave birth to nine sons, each of which is different, and some of the good ones are relied on -- Wang Li is the one who depends on them.
In and out of fireworks, frequent chapters, cockfights, seizure of production and invasion of land. Every year, Jingzhao Yin Temple receives no less than 10 complaints about Wang Li's illegal acts, but the result is that either the victims themselves withdraw the lawsuits, or the major matters are turned into small ones, and finally they are not resolved.
In fact, when it comes to lawlessness, there are many powerful people in Chang'an, and almost none of the princes in the court are clean. It's just that people have a sense of proportion, take into account their reputation, and know that they are restrained, not as flamboyant and unscrupulous as Wang Li. And this is also the reason why Wang Li has never been able to get a real position as an official.
Wang Li's reputation is very bad, and the evil things he has done can be easily collected. Of course, most of them are the talk of Chang'an after tea and dinner, and it is impossible to find out the evidence if you really want to investigate, but the difference in this person's reputation can be seen.
Such a person was the first person Zhang visited after returning to Chang'an. If he had a choice, Zhang Fang didn't want to deal with this person, but when the matter came, he wouldn't shy away from it. In the face of different people, there must be different ways to deal with them, people like Wang Li are very common in later generations, typical of the second generation of officials, and they are also very arrogant.
Zhang Fang has no experience in dealing with the second generation of officials in later generations, but it doesn't matter, he is also an official N generation now, everyone is in the same class, and Wang Li's "power" to bully people is ineffective against him. Stripped off this layer of tiger skin, what he has to deal with may only be an enhanced version of Shi Rong.
While thinking about it, as soon as the carriage stopped, Deng Zhan's voice came: "Family master, the palace has arrived." ”
Zhang put the bamboo roll together, just out of the curtain, the palace suddenly opened the door, two rows of brocade clothes and servants lined up on both sides of the stairs of the gate, with a burst of silk and bamboo sound, there was a somewhat slender, quite harsh laughter: "The Marquis of Fuping came to our house, it was really a bright wall, there was a loss of welcome, please forgive the sin." Hahahaha! ”
With the laughter, two people appeared in front of the middle door, one in front and one behind, and saluted Zhang Fang, who got down from the carriage, with their sleeves closed.
The person in front, about thirty-five or sixteen years old, wears a two-beam crown on his head, tied to the chin with yellow silk, has upright facial features, white skin and black beard, wears a brocade deep coat, and plays with a white jade Ruyi in his hand. The later person was a young man about the same age as Zhang Fang, with bangs on his forehead, a scarf on his head, a round forehead, and a strong body, somewhat similar to the former, and it seemed that he was father and son.
"In front is Wang Zhonglang." Deng Zhan reminded in a low voice.
"The little boy in the back is Wang Zhu." Chu Liu recognized the opponent at a glance and immediately reminded him.
This is Wang Li, I can't see it. Zhang Fang returned the salute with a smile: "Wang Zhonglang is too polite, but he has never attacked the lord in the next, and the Hou Yunyun of Fuping is ashamed." ”
"Sooner or later, sooner or later." Wang Li laughed and greeted Zhang Fang, stretching out his hand to show affection.
Zhang Fang did not stretch out his hand, and insisted with a smile: "If it is not sealed, it will not be called a marquis, and it will not dare to exceed the system." ”
Wang Li's smile was a little stiff, and when he stopped laughing, he was about to say something, when his sleeves were pulled, and his son's whisper came: "It's the Hu man cub on the right side of the car." ”
Wang Li's eyes quickly swept towards Chu Liuyi, his eyes were gloomy, his nostrils sneered coldly, and when he turned to Zhang Fang, he immediately changed his smiling face, and turned sideways to solemnize his hand: "Please." ”
The main hall of the royal residence, of course, not everyone can enter, except for Zhang Fang and Wang's father and son kneeling face to face on the soft seat in the hall, the rest of them are standing at the bottom of the steps.
Wang Li first expressed his sorrow for the marquis, and then asked his son to ask Zhang Fang for his guilt. Wang Li was born as an official eunuch in the end, and he did not do a bad job on the surface.
Zhang Fang also apologized to Wang Li, only saying that he was negligent in control, so that his servants hurt people.
Wang Li waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Hu Nu is brutal and not easy to restrain him, so he must blame Shaojun, why should he be so polite and personally send someone to the door." Hehehehehe......"
Zhang Fang turned his head and signaled for the sixth rank of the first month, knelt down at the bottom of the steps, and said: "Although this person is from Wudan, he is not Hu'er, he is actually of the Han race. ”
Wang Li stroked his palms and smiled: "Oh, is it? So much better. ”
What's better? He didn't say it, believing that the young gentleman in front of him would understand.
Zhang Fang understood that he understood, but he didn't intend to play his cards according to Wang Li's expected routine, he turned his head and said indifferently: "Sixth year old, do you know what you have done?" ”
Chu Liu said proudly: "Chu Liu was in the Fuping Marquis Mansion, and he accidentally injured the Wang family's slaves. ”
"In that case, don't apologize to Zhonglang quickly!"
Chu Liu's first said: "I missed on the sixth day of the first month, and accidentally injured the noble servant, please punish Zhonglang." ”
Wang Li didn't even look at Chu Liu, but still smiled at Zhang Fang: "Last time, I also had a house slave who had an argument with his servant in the Enping Marquis Mansion, and after I came back, I directly cut off his feet with a cane and let people carry him to the Enping Marquis Mansion to ask for guilt, which didn't make the Chang'an princes laugh." ”
Zhang Fang smiled lightly: "Yes, it seems that the slaves of your house like to make trouble in other people's houses." ”
Wang Li realized that he was speechless, gave someone a handle, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he snorted: "This time, that time, this time is the house slave to protect the master, not to make trouble......
Zhang Fang immediately cut off Wang Li's words and said solemnly: "What does Zhonglang mean is that Gongzi Ling is worried about his life in my mansion?" I can't afford to make such an accusation! ”
"I don't mean that." Wang Li was taken aback, he didn't dare to bear such a serious accusation, in a hurry, he didn't make a mistake, and directly showed his hole cards, "This matter is purely a dispute between domestic slaves, not anything else, Shaojun must not be too careful, as long as he is punished lightly." ”
Zhang Fang raised his eyebrows and said, "But how does Zhonglang want to 'punish lightly'?" ”
Wang Li played with Yu Ruyi, laughing without saying a word.
Wang Zhu couldn't help but speak: "My servant injured three people, one injured his foot, one pierced his arm, and his ears were always injured, and he was not lightly injured and his appearance was broken. ”
Wang Li reprimanded his son a few words, what "adults are here, don't talk nonsense", what "although there are few young gentlemen, they have the wind of a common marquis, they naturally know how to deal with it, why do you need to put your beak in this erection" Yunyun. Although it is a training son, it has a point.
Looking at the father and son who sang red-faced and white-faced respectively, Zhang Fang suddenly said something unexpected to the two. (To be continued.) )
