Chapter 124: Wei Guogong's Letter of Appreciation (I)
Xu Bangyang never imagined that his unintentional act of being competitive would bring disaster to the family, let alone that a little scholar in Bai Ding would dare to fight the idea of the national prince.
But they did, and it didn't sound like a dream. Xu Bangyang has heard his father say more than once that the biggest problem in today's sainthood is that he is suspicious, and he is ruthless and unsympathetic.
In the Great Rites Discussion, Zhang Xuan, who was born and died, said that he would abandon it, and Shoufu Xia Yan, who was also picked up by Jiajing, ended up with a miserable end in a different place, and Xianning Hou Qiuluan even opened the coffin and killed the corpse......
Thinking of this, Xu Bangyang shuddered, his legs were unconsciously weak, and he didn't know where to run with the anger in his stomach, only fear, outright fear.
"You, what the hell do you want?"
Listening to Xu Bangyang's heartless shouting, Tang Yi smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass from the table, poured him a glass of wine, and sent it to Xu Bangyang, signaling him to drink it, Xu Bangyang gritted his teeth, leaned his neck and drank dry, the spicy and mellow wine flowed in his throat, Xu Bangyang couldn't help but feel a spirit, and the little white face became red in an instant.
"Hehe, Xu Gongzi, in all fairness, I really don't want to tear my face with Wei Guogong."
"Then you didn't do it anyway?"
"That's what you forced you to do!" Tang Yi's eyes were suddenly sharp, staring at Xu Bangyang tightly, staring at him in the hair. "The salt iron pond is my hard work, whoever wants to move the salt iron pond, even if it is the king of heaven, I have to fight! Xu Gongzi, your claws are stretched too long! ”
The tone was cold, Xu Bangyang couldn't help but take half a step back, pursed his lips, and said after a while: "Okay, even if I admit it, but you can't be so ruthless!" Framing our family on trumped-up charges! ”
Tang Yi laughed, took out the token from his arms, and threw it on the table with a snap.
"Xu Gongzi, I, Tang Yi, am not an unreasonable person, I can return the token to you, without the token to testify, even if someone is impeached, your family will not be fine. But ......" Tang Yi showed a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was looking at the prey in his hand, high up.
Xu Bangyang kept telling himself that the upside-down donkey would not fall down, and he could not be suppressed by the momentum, otherwise he would be slaughtered, but he couldn't muster up the courage, so he could only say gloomily: "Tang Gongzi, you can make a price!" ”
The arrogant Xu Gongzi finally bowed his head, Tang Yi smiled slightly, everything was in his calculations. From the initial reversal of the dock, and then gave him a closed-door soup, and then Chen Menghe suddenly changed his face, under a series of blows, Xu Bangyang was already in chaos, collapsed without a fight, and his own terror and intimidation directly destroyed his inner defense, and now Xu Gongzi is like a roasted duck, just waiting for him to roll up the small cakes and enjoy them.
"Xu Gongzi, I can let you go, but there must be compensation, and I must ensure that you can't trouble me in the future."
"I can write you a letter of guarantee!"
"Phew!" Tang Yi took a sip and scolded: "Your father may be useful for writing a guarantee, but you are not qualified enough!" Xu Bangyang's face was flushed and he was speechless.
"Three requirements, the first is to hand over a total of twenty-three shops under your name to me as compensation for the suspension of the canal!"
Hearing the numbers, Xu Bangyang subconsciously exclaimed: "How do you know? ”
Tang Yi laughed in his heart, for the sake of you Xu Gongzi, I asked for a lot of black information from Jinyiwei, otherwise how could I have the confidence to negotiate with you.
Of course, Tang Yi wouldn't tell him, but took out a confession from his arms and sent it to Xu Bangyang.
"Look at it, agree to draw a charge on it."
Xu Bangyang took a look at it, and it turned out to be a confession, the general content of which was that Suzhou Caokou, secretly raising thugs, oppressing the people, concealing the imperial court's illegal embezzlement of grain, killing people and overselling goods, and doing all kinds of evil......
There are more than 20 charges in total, and after Xu Bangyang read it, sweat flowed down his sideburns.
"No, no, I can't draw a charge!"
No wonder he is afraid, although he has a noble status, the Cao Gang has been in business for many years, and he is not a vegetarian. The two sides are not masters and servants, but a cooperative relationship, even if the industry under the name of Wei Guogong goes through the canal, they still have to pay the rules and regulations. If Xu Bangyang draws a charge, he will be raised. The two sides completely tore their faces, unless Xu Bangyang hid in the Guogong Mansion and didn't come out, otherwise the Cao Gang would not let him go!
Where is this report, it is clearly a letter of nomination!
And Tang Yi wants this effect, if he doesn't cut Xu Bangyang and the Cao Gang, there will be trouble in the future.
"Xu Gongzi, I didn't expect you to have such a deep relationship with the Cao Gang, as the saying goes, chivalry violates the ban with martial arts, your good son-in-law is not appropriate, and you are entangled with the Cao Gang, could it be that your family has other plans? Emperor Taizu Gao started an incident through Mingjiao, and you want to seize power through the Cao Gang? ”
"Don't hurt me!"
Xu Bangyang jumped three feet high as if he had been electrocuted, he was really afraid of Tang Yi's sharp mouth. The thief bites into the bone for three points, and it's a big deal not to play with the Cao Gang.
"I can't draw a bet!"
Xu Bangyang picked up the pen and drew it, Tang Yi nodded with satisfaction, and called Zhu Shan over with a wave of his hand.
"You go, give this confession to Lord Chen, and then immediately order a thousand troops and copy the Caokou for me!"
"Yes!"
Zhu Shan turned around and left, Xu Bangyang's eyes fell, he was so fucking clean and neat, he didn't even give time to change his hexagram. It is conceivable that if Chen Menghe gets the confession, he will definitely attack Caokou, and the Cao Gang in Suzhou will inevitably be wiped out, and he will be one of the culprits at that time, and Caokou in the north and south will not play with him.
In the midst of the loss and defeat, he had a trace of admiration for Tang Yi, obviously this guy was much younger than himself, and his status was low, but compared with his resoluteness and ruthlessness, what he did was more like a child's house, and he was simply embarrassed.
Tang Yi returned to his seat, poured the wine again, and said with a smile: "Young Master Xu, it's rare to see, you might as well accompany me for two drinks." ”
Xu Bangyang sat opposite with a black face, holding the wine glass, the green tendons on his hands were exposed, and the joints were white. Tang Yi didn't care, good wine and good food, if he didn't eat it quickly, it would be cold.
Only the sound of Tang Yi eating was left in the huge room, and the more Xu Bangyang thought about it, the more angry he became, he boasted of being smart, doing business outside, making friends with three religions and nine streams, and mixing well. There are only two things that make him linger, one is that he admires everyone in Liuying, often goes to the party, and spends an unknown amount of silver. Xu Gongzi firmly believed that he was attractive and disdained to use despicable coercive means, but after getting around, Liuying ran to Taicang and became Tang Yi's disciple, which simply made him depressed to death.
As for the second one, Xu Bangyang prides himself on being unparalleled in talent and intelligence, and wants to worship Tang Shunzhi as a teacher, so he has a closed door, but he heard that Tang Shunzhi actually took the initiative to accept Tang Yi, which made him even more unbearable.
From jealousy to resentment, Xu Bangyang wanted to take revenge, but what he got was even greater humiliation, how could he drink this glass of wine!
Knock, after a slap of the wine glass, Xu Bangyang said angrily: "Tang Yi, if you have any other requirements, say them, I promise you!" ”
"Hehehe, it's nothing, as long as Xu Gongzi stays in my military camp for three days, we will write it off."
"What? You want to put me under house arrest? Xu Bangyang asked angrily.
"I don't dare, if Gongzi Xu is not afraid of death, just go out, I'm afraid that the people of the Cao Gang will not let you go!"
In a word, Xu Bangyang is finally honest, and he knows with his toes that Tang Yi must be preaching everywhere that it was he Xu Gongzi who betrayed the Cao Gang and made him speechless, he didn't want to fall into the hands of the Cao Gang and enjoy the punishment of three knives and six holes.
People had to bow their heads under the low eaves, Xu Bangyang had to be honest and lived in the barracks for three days, and on the third day, the barracks suddenly became lively, with more than a dozen carriages loaded with brand-new armor and weapons, and even firearms. A middle-aged man was clasping his fists towards Tang Yi and said with a smile: "Master Wei's letter Grandpa Guo has seen it, thank you Prodigy Tang for being thoughtful, Grandpa Guo is grateful." ”
"Where do you say it, the public merit of Wei is high, everyone admires it, and the kid is also admired." The more the two sides talked, the hotter they became, like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
Xu Bangyang rubbed his eyes, and suddenly grabbed his thighs fiercely, it hurt! Not a dream!
It's not a dream, why did Uncle Nine come? and Tang Yi chatted so cordially, can anyone tell me what happened?
When Xu Pengfei saw Xu Bangyang at a glance, his face suddenly sank, and he scolded angrily: "Brute, don't roll over yet!" ”
Xu Bangyang didn't dare to disobey, trotted over and saluted his uncle.
Xu Pengfei looked at his nephew, the more angry he became, he used to be quite shrewd, but now the more he looked at it, the more angry he became.
"Brute, you are really daring, you usually deal with people in the rivers and lakes, you dare to run to block the canal, and steal our token, you, you want to be angry with us?"
"The little nephew doesn't dare, the little nephew ......"
"Don't say it, your father gave an order, let me send you to Jinshan Temple, cultivate yourself well, and save yourself from losing our family again!" Xu Pengfei saw that Xu Bangyang was still a little hesitant, and scolded angrily: "Come on, take this evil obstacle away!" ”
