Chapter 124: Great Gain

Sun Yu used to be just a minor official in the Wei Palace, and it was completely relying on Yan Mi's words in front of the King of Wei that he recommended him to enter the officialdom, and slowly achieved the position of the official of Kaifeng Mansion. So, it's a bit shrewd.

Seeing Zhao Yuankan politely ask to sit down, he hurriedly saluted, and then dared to take a seat. In Sun Yu's eyes, Zhao Yuankan is just a teenager, although he looks old, but soon, that immaturity is revealed.

I saw that Zhao Yuankan was very arrogant, and kept persuading him to drink, and after about half an hour, Sun Yu was already a little drunk, his tongue was a little numb, and of course he couldn't speak. But it is very true.

"Lord Wang, to tell you the truth, your palace is far from the Wei Palace!" Sun Yu said with his tongue wide open, and his head was not very sharp.

Zhao Yuankan smiled, poured another glass of wine, and asked, "What did Lord Sun say, after all, this king is also a prince, how can it be so far from the Wei Palace?" ”

"The prince doesn't know anything, just look at the decoration of this palace, you can see it. The backyard of the Wei Palace, those palaces, can be said to be exactly the same as the imperial palace! Sun Yu said.

"How can it be exactly the same? After all, King Wei is the third uncle of this king, and the third uncle's mansion, this king has been there a few times! As soon as Zhao Yuankan finished speaking, he heard Sun Yu say: "The prince doesn't know anything. In the backyard of the Wei Palace, no one is allowed to enter. Because there are many palaces built in the backyard, it can be said that it is similar to the imperial palace. Let's talk about the decoration first! ”

"Decoration? What decoration is similar to the palace, this king has not heard of it! Zhao Yuankan asked deliberately.

Sun Yu said: "Let's talk about the beam first. The beams behind King Wei are all carved dragons and phoenixes! Lord Wang, don't look at Xia Guan like this, Xia Guan is saying that the carved dragon and phoenix are a little unusual. The prince often goes in and out of the palace, and he also knows that in the palace of the palace, there are only nine dragons and nine phoenixes, but the palace in the backyard of the Wei palace is also nine dragons and nine phoenixes! ”

Zhao Yuankan took a breath and said, "Third Uncle is arrogant!" But this point can't be compared to this king's palace, but it doesn't mean that it's worse. ”

Sun Yu smiled: "Of course, the prince's mansion is more than that!" Not only that, but the palaces in the backyard have also taken a lot of names, such as Wende Palace, Vertical Arch Palace, etc., all of which are modeled after the palace. Moreover, the subordinate officials of the palace, when they were deliberating, all performed the emperor's salute and bowed to the king of Wei! ”

This is death! Zhao Yuankan was also secretly surprised in his heart, seeing that this Sun Yu was really drunk, and continued to ask: "The majesty that a prince should have, this is not excessive!" ”

Sun Yu said: "Also, in the Wei Palace, it is three thousand beauties!" ”

Zhao Yuankan said: "Master Sun laughed. After all, the third uncle is a prince, even if there are some concubines, it is normal! ”

Sun Yu tried to straighten his tongue, but he was already numb, so he had to take another glass of wine to smooth it out before saying, "The prince knows who is the most trustworthy person in King Wei?" It's Wang Jixun. Wang Jixun imitated the selection of concubines in the palace, and in the fifteen counties of Kaifeng Prefecture, he selected women from good families and rushed into **. Even a few years ago, when the emperor drafted women, didn't he only choose more than 50 people? ”

Speaking of this, Sun Yu continued: "Guess how many people there were at that time, there were a total of a hundred people, and only half of them were sent to the palace!" ”

Zhao Yuankan said with a look of disbelief: "Impossible, the third uncle can't interfere in the matter of the draft girl at all!" ”

Sun Yu said with a smile: "I won't be unable to intervene, the prince thinks about it, who is responsible in the palace for the matter of the draft girl?" Who is in charge outside the palace? ”

Zhao Yuankan thought for a while and said: "Then it goes without saying, inside the palace is Wang Jien, outside the palace is Wang Rong, and the horse army in front of the palace is the head." ”

Sun Yu said with a mysterious face: "Wang Jien has long had something to do with King Wei, and I believe that the official family knows this. It's just that what he doesn't know is that this Wang Rong has long had something to do with King Wei! ”

"This Wang Rong has always been brave, and now he is the head of the imperial horse infantry army, that is the personal guard of his father, how can he have anything to do with the third uncle? Lord Sun is really joking! Zhao Yuankan said deliberately.

"How can this be a joke. In fact, as early as when Wang Rongdi returned to Beijing to beg for thieves, the first thing he did was to meet King Wei. However, the king of Wei also set up a special banquet to celebrate his achievements, and it was the king of Wei who arranged for the people of the Privy Council to play and ask for the head of the imperial horse and infantry army. ”

"It's too far away, let's talk about this Wang Rong. Wang Rong had just sent the show girls selected from all over the country to the post station, and they were half picked by King Wei and left. The rest was sent to the palace. These are also Wang Rong's kindness in order to repay King Wei! ”

Zhao Yuankan sighed and said, "It seems that this Wang Rong is still very grateful to repay his kindness!" ”

"Of course!" Sun Yu said.

Zhao Yuankan asked again: "Since the third uncle's mansion has raised so many concubines, there are also a lot of servants, and the palace is also so luxurious, how is this possible?" Lord Sun, don't deceive this king, where did you get so much money, the third uncle's money is not enough at all! ”

The inner servants in Zhao Yuanzuo's mouth are the eunuchs he is talking about, and there are also eunuchs in the palace, but the number is still worse than that of the palace. Like the eunuchs in Zhao Yuanzuo's mansion, there are only three or five in total.

Sun Yu looked at Zhao Yuanzuo, and now that the strength of the wine has come up, he has become much bolder, just to show off himself, and said: "This is not the credit of that Yan Huaizhong!" ”

"Yan Huaizhong, who is this person?" Zhao Yuankan didn't know him.

Sun Yu said: "Yan Huaizhong has been King Wei's companion since childhood. Now it is also a close confidant of the prince, and it is also the long history of the palace. The expenses of the Wei Wangfu are so large, and they must have to think of some ways to make money. In our capital, the richest people are no one more than two people! ”

Zhao Yuankan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Who is it?" ”

Sun Yu said: "One is the former Southern Tang puppet emperor, the prince of Longxi County!" ”

Zhao Yuankan said: "This prince of Longxi County may have some money during his lifetime, but when the army destroyed the Southern Tang Dynasty, wasn't that wealth sealed and stored in the treasury?" ”

Sun Yu said: "Lord Wang, when the Duke of Longxi County surrendered, he brought boxes and boxes of gold, silver, jewelry, antiques and jade. That's a lot of wealth, otherwise, how could it be so leisurely! ”

Zhao Yuankan said: "However, how could this prince of Longxi County be bullied by a small prince of the palace? ”

Sun Yu said: "Yan Huaizhong often went to the Longxi County Mansion to extort money under the banner of King Wei, until three years ago, Zheng Guogong's family was hollowed out by Yan Huaizhong, and he stopped. At that time, the official family fell in love with Mrs. Zheng Guogong's wife! ”

When Sun Yu said this, he deliberately sold a pass, and Zhao Yuankan hurriedly persuaded him to drink and asked, "What happened later?" ”

Sun Yu said: "Later, the public house of Longxi County was empty, and he wrote some words and the like all day long, and the things of these scholars, Lao Sun sounded like a headache, and he couldn't say it clearly." Anyway, it was this Longxi County Duke who had been scratching his heart, so he was poisoned by Yan Huaizhong! ”

This Sun Yu was slowly mixed up from a small official, so he didn't attribute himself to the category of scholars at all.

Zhao Yuankan said pretended to be angry: "What a Yan Huaizhong, it is simply lawless to poison the county prince of the imperial court!" ”

Sun Yu said: "Lord Wang, this is no wonder that Yan Huaizhong. This is what the official family asked King Wei to do, and King Wei handed it over to Yan Huaizhong! ”

Zhao Yuankan smiled awkwardly and said that this is the case, this is wronged him. Then he asked, "Who is the other richest man?" ”

Sun Yu smiled: "Of course, it's Qian Jiao, the former king of Wuyue." Now the King of Huaihai! ”

Zhao Yuankan said: "By the way, it must be King Wu Yue, how did this king forget him." This King Wu Yue started from Qian Mu, he repaired water conservancy, developed agriculture, and the people of the thirteen states in the south of the Yangtze River were rich, and now they are among the best. And also trade with overseas, naturally seeking the wealth of the world! ”

Sun Yu said: "Of course. This King of Huaihai is not only much richer than the Duke of Longxi County, but also his circumstances are very different. This King Wu Yue was originally to help me defeat the Southern Tang Dynasty in the Great Song Dynasty, and later took the initiative to hand over the treasury atlas, because the officials were very favorable! ”

Zhao Yuankan said puzzledly: "In this case, how can Yan Huaizhong be so bold that he dares to blackmail the King of Huaihai!" ”

"Isn't King Huaihai a courtier of the Great Song Dynasty? Besides, after all, it is the king, how dare you compare it with the king of Wei? Sun Yu said: "And, as far as I know, this Yan Huaizhong has gained a lot of benefits from King Wu Yue!" ”

"That's for sure, but this king is interested in hearing it, what did he get?" Zhao Yuankan said.

Sun Yu said: "I don't know about the rest, but once, I heard the entourage talk about it." The rhino jade belt and the gin vessel were all exchanged for overseas. In particular, the rhino jade belt is only produced in the Nanyang area, and it is extremely precious. There are also all kinds of treasures among them, which are of great value. ”

"Then he must have made a lot of money himself, right?" Zhao Yuankan said.

Sun Yu said: "Of course, the gift that Qian Jiao gave to Yan Huaizhong, just that time, it was a hundred taels of platinum, gold, silk fans, etc., many of which were treasures that I had never heard of!" ”

Zhao Yuankan couldn't help but scold in his heart, but there was no trace of dissatisfaction on his face, and asked: "In that case, it's normal for them to burn some charcoal?" ”

Sun Yu said: "It's too normal. It is said that once, in Yan Mi's house, someone burned charcoal, and someone was killed! ”

Zhao Yuankan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's going on, let's hear it!" ”

Sun Yu said: "That time, I still heard a subordinate of Yan Mi's family talk about it, saying that late that night, Yan Mi had a concubine, and in the middle of the night, the charcoal burned out, and it was too cold, so he asked the maid to add charcoal. Who knows, when I got up the next day, I found that the little concubine had been poisoned with coal! ”

Zhao Yuankan was stunned for a moment and said, "How is it possible, how can it be possible for charcoal to poison people?" ”

Sun Yu said: "It's true! I heard that at that time, there was a lot of coal and stone in the coal, which could not be burned at all, and after the coal and stone were burned, there was still poison! ”
