Chapter 416: Who's Exploiting Whom
The two families of Yuan Cao fought against each other, but Yecheng was not affected.
Although it is a little more depressed than in the past, there are many businessmen.
There were all kinds of gadgets on the roadside stalls, Dong Qing picked up one and felt that the other was good, and she didn't know what to buy back.
Seeing that she didn't pay attention, the man reminded in a low voice: "Please come with me!" ”
"Who are you?" Without looking at him again, Dong Qing played with a clay villain, and said unhurriedly: "Go with you?" How do I know you're not a villain? ”
"If Madame is suspicious, she doesn't have to come." The man lowered his voice and said, "The villain invites each other, just because someone wants to see Mrs.!" ”
"Who?"
"In the market, there are some words that are inconvenient to speak!"
The man was mysterious and secretive, Dong Qing snorted lightly and ignored it.
She refused to follow, and the men did not dare to use force in the market.
Arching his hand towards Dong Qing, he turned to leave.
Seeing his back, the corners of Dong Qing's mouth slightly showed a touch of disdain.
In a few moments, the man entered a house not far from her.
Feng Ji waited in the house, and when he saw that he was the only one coming, his face suddenly turned bad.
"Dong Qing refuses to come?"
"Back to the public!" The man said: "Dong Qing is cautious, he doesn't recognize the villain, so he refuses to come here!" ”
"What a shrewd woman!" Feng Ji said to the man: "I can't say that only a certain person personally invites you, you and others will go together." ”
The man answered, went out to greet a few people who were on guard nearby, and followed Feng Ji to the street where he and Dong Qing had spoken.
There were a lot of pedestrians in the market, and after looking for a while, a man found Dong Qing.
He made the crowd wait two or three paces away. Feng Ji came to Dong Qing's side and said, "I haven't seen Mrs. for many days." I don't want to meet in the market! ”
Seeing Feng Ji, Dong Qing returned the salute and said: "Feng Gong is responsible for labor and government affairs. Do you have time to come to the market? ”
"Madame has leisure, how can she have no leisure?" Feng Ji said: "I met by chance in the market, I wonder if I can ask my wife to have a cup of tea?" ”
"If you want to have tea, you have a lot of them at home." Dong Qing said indifferently: "The market teahouse, I'm afraid it's not suitable for women to sit upright!" ”
"Since you are invited, how can you let your lady go to the teahouse?" Feng Ji said: "Please also ask Mrs. to move and go to the cold house to talk about it!" ”
In two simple sentences, Dong Qing already understood that the man who invited her before was sent by Feng Ji.
"Since it is a public invitation, it is inconvenient for the slave family to refuse!" Dong Qing said: "In this way, it will disturb Feng Gong. ”
personally led the way for Dong Qing, and Feng Ji went to his residence.
Outside the door. He stepped aside and said to Dong Qing, "Madam, please come in!" ”
After thanking him, Dong Qing entered Fengji's residence.
has followed Yuan Shao for many years, and also has a certain status in Hebei, and Fengji's residence is certainly not comparable to ordinary bureaucrats.
Although it is a two-way courtyard, the courtyard is several times larger than the courtyard of the ordinary bureaucratic home.
The bluestone path stretches from the main gate to the inner gate, and flowers and trees more than one person tall are planted on the roadside.
In the summer of Fengji residence, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, which can be regarded as a bit of charm.
"Please. Something must be wrong. Walking along the bluestone road, Dong Qing said: "You and I are not stupid people, there are some things that need not be concealed, just say them explicitly." ”
"Madame is extremely intelligent. One point makes sense. Feng Ji said: "I specially invited each other, and it is indeed something to discuss." ”
"There's no need to taste the tea." Dong Qing stopped, faced Feng Ji and said, "Feng Gong has something to say." But it doesn't hurt to say it! ”
"The fifth prince will return, can Madame know?"
"Rumor of an encounter with an assassin. So far, life and death are uncertain. Dong Qing said: "How did Feng Gong know that he would return to Yecheng?" ”
"Don't hide it from Madame, someone has sent someone to investigate this matter." Feng Ji said: "The people who were killed in the forest. It should have intercepted the five prince's assassins, but somehow none of them were killed! As for the assassins who later encountered the fifth prince, he has not yet found out where he came from, and there are many people in the world who want to take the head of the fifth prince! ”
Dong Qing smiled indifferently and did not say a word.
Feng Ji only spoke, she had already heard that the assassin who was killed in the forest was sent by him, and the one who almost succeeded had nothing to do with him!
"The fifth son and the second son are not on good terms, and everyone knows it." Feng Ji said: "Madame has also done something for the second son in the past, Hebei fell into the hands of the fifth son, how can he spare Madame?" ”
"Feng Gong's remarks are alarmist!" Dong Qing smiled indifferently: "Although the fifth prince and I are not on good terms, they have never cared. Once upon a time, someone tried to kill me, causing me to lose the child in my womb, and it is still difficult to find out who the murderer was! ”
Dong Qing mentioned the events of the day, and Feng Ji's face changed.
This woman is clear-sighted, how can she not know who is secretly plotting?
Feng Ji saw that it would not be easy to control Dong Qing!
"I am a woman, and it is not appropriate for a man's family to be involved in the struggle for power and profit." Dong Qing continued: "The second son is not pleasing now, the slave family stays in Yecheng, and he must not cause trouble for no reason and cause trouble to the son!" ”
Without waiting for Feng Ji to speak, Dong Qing bowed: "Thank you for the friendship of the father-in-law, the slave family will retire first!" ”
didn't have time to discuss with Dong Qing how to deal with Yuan Xu, but she refused, and seeing her leaving, Feng Ji's face was very ugly.
Leaving Feng Ji's residence, Dong Qing walked down the street unhurriedly.
Feng Ji invited her to come, nothing more than to take advantage of her hatred for Yuan Xu and use her hand to cause some trouble for Yuan Xu.
If it happens, she will naturally be killed.
If it doesn't work out, Yuan Shao will be investigated, Yuan Shang and Feng Ji will also be cleared, and only Dong Qing will bear the charge!
refusing to meet the discipline, Dong Qing also had some calculations.
Feng Ji found her and wanted her to jump into the middle of the gang, how could she let go of the opportunity to find some trouble for Yuan Xu, but not be used by Feng Ji and others, and finally become a substitute for the dead?
Walking along the street, Dong Qing didn't look at the roadside stalls again.
When she returned to her lodgings, she instructed her maid, "Prepare a carriage, I will be waiting outside the house these days, I will be of great use." ”
Not knowing what she was going to do, the maid answered and left.
Dong Qing returned to his residence to think about how to deal with Yuan Xu, and Feng Ji was not idle at this time.
Rejected by her, the strategy that Feng Ji had thought of earlier was no longer possible.
originally planned to persuade Yuan Shang to take a risk, but Yuan Shang looked forward and backward, and still cared about the relationship between father and son.
Yuan Shao's body and bones are not as good as day by day, and there is not much time for Hebei to be inherited by his heirs.
Because of the Puyang incident, Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang had no possibility of inheritance.
has always befriended Yuan Shang, and Feng Ji has already offended Yuan Tan and Yuan Xu.
The two of them won Hebei, and Fengji will definitely fall into ruin!
People don't kill for themselves, although following Yuan Shao for many years, it is about the life of the family, and Feng Ji has to think about a way out!
"Pay close attention to the surroundings of Yecheng, and deploy eyeliner hundreds of miles away!" Feng Ji whispered to the man on the side: "Grate it around like a sieve, and report it immediately if the fifth prince returns!" ”
The man left.
Seeing his back, Feng Ji's face was gloomy and terrifying! (To be continued.) )
