Zhang Dai listened to Huang Zunsu's reasonableness, nodded and said: "This is really a dilemma, but in any case, we can't easily let go of Dong and Wang, this kind of rumor has a very bad impact on the reputation of our Han Society, and only by severely punishing them can we return our innocence." "Look at Zhang Yuan, see how Zhang Yuan decides?

Zhang Yuan's eyebrows furrowed again, and said: "I think Wang Ruqian is testing me, if I am greedy for money, he will give up ten thousand taels of silver, but because of this, I and my colleagues in the Han Society will inevitably deviate from morality, and it is unknown if he and the Dong family will stir up trouble and create rumors again, this kind of annihilation business is afraid that it will not be so easy to succumb——"

Huang Zunsu smiled and said: "What Jie Zi is worried about is that this silver money can relieve Yan Yi's face, open the mouth of difficulty, danger can make peace, death can make life, expensive can make cheap, life can make killing, anger is not money is invincible, resentment is not money is not incomprehensible, it can cause good friends to turn against each other, and it can make the enemy happy - Wang Ruqian sent 10,000 taels, it depends on how Zhang Sheshou handles it?" ”

Zhang Yuan sneered: "He gave me money and asked me not to pursue it, but then he wanted to pursue me." ”

Zhang Dai asked, "Then how should we deal with it?" ”

Zhang Yuan thought for a while and said with a smile: "I want to accept this silver, how can I not accept it if I send it to the door." Immediately, under the gaze of Zhang Dai and Huang Zunsu, he wrote two posts - Zhang Dai laughed when he read these two posts, and said: "Very good, that's it, let Wang Ruqian lose his wife and lose his soldiers." ”

Huang Zunsu twisted his beard and smiled: "This is the most appropriate way to deal with it, and deliberately confuse Wang Ruqian by not tying the garden, Wang Ruqian will definitely suffer a dumb loss." ”

Zhang Yuan immediately ordered Xue Tong to send one of the anonymous posts to the beautiful woman Xu Ansheng in Yongjinmen Diplomacy, Xue Tong ran away, out of Yongjinmen, all the way to the West Lake, the beautiful woman Xu Ansheng on the boat had already seen Xue Tong, walked up to the bow of the boat and beckoned: "Xiaotong, come up." ”

Xue Tong jumped on the boat and handed the post to Xu Ansheng, the beautiful woman looked at the post, smiled slightly, and ordered the boat to go offshore, Xue Tong said: "Where is Aunt Xu going, I have to go back to talk back to Xianggong Jie Zi." ”

The beautiful woman said: "I will also reply to others, and when I reply, I will send you ashore to reply." Pulled Xue Tong to the cabin, asked the maid to take candy for Xue Tong to eat, and asked Xue Tong: "Xiao Tong, does that Zhang Yuan Zhang Gongzi like your aunt?" ”

Xue Tong is more greedy, the little child has an amazing amount of food, pumpkin pie in his left hand, fragrant mochi in his right hand, he eats happily, his mouth is stuffed, and he said vaguely: "I like it, I like it tightly." ”

The beautiful woman smiled and said, "Why do you like the law, you can tell me." ”

Xue Tong stuffed another piece of Western cake into his mouth and replied: "My aunt Qin Huaihe doesn't live anymore, isn't it because I like Jie Zi Xianggong." ”

The beautiful woman sat on the circle chair, pulled Xue Tong over, stretched out the eight Hunan skirts, and divided her legs under the skirts, and actually sandwiched Xue Tong between her legs, and said with a smile: "That's your aunt sent to the door, it's not that Gongzi Zhang likes your aunt so much-"

Xue Tong blushed and argued: "I like it too, I like it very much." As he spoke, he broke the legs of this beautiful woman with both hands, jumped to the side, stared at this beautiful woman vigilantly, and said in his heart: "No wonder Wei Gu said that this Xu Ansheng loves to seduce people, even my child wants to hook up, is my Xue Tong such a casual person, hum!" ”

The beautiful woman said "oops", rubbed her calf with her skirt, rolled her eyes and said, "What are you doing so hard, it hurts me." Rubbed his legs a few times, put a pine nut candy in his mouth, squinted his peach blossom eyes, and asked, "Has your aunt's long hair been coiled?" ”

Xue Tong jumped over and took a piece of hawthorn cake and returned it, as fast as the wind, and replied, "Aunt Wei's hair is on the plate, what's wrong?" ”

The beautiful woman Xu Ansheng smiled tiredly and said: "Wang Xiuwei has been guarding herself for several years, this time it is finally **, her temper - don't be driven out by the eldest woman of the Zhang family later, she has offended Wang Ruqian now, I am afraid that it will not be easy in the future, alas, the happy and debauched son of Qinhuai River is just to be restrained, it is really stupid." ”

"Nonsense!"

Xue Tong said angrily: "My aunt is doing very well, Xianggong Jie Zi and Miss Ruoxi are very good to my aunt, but that Wang Xiucai is going to be unlucky, and Aunt Xu, you will also be unlucky." ”

Xue Tong didn't care that he was on Xu Ansheng's boat, he could say whatever he wanted-the beautiful woman Xu An was so angry that she bit her silver teeth, stood up, was about to have a seizure, gasped a few times, but sat back in the circle chair, shook her head and said: "I'm really bored, what kind of anger with a yellow-mouthed child." He glared at Xue Tong and said, "I don't know what to do, I have lived in my house several times, and I have eaten many things in my house, but you talk to me like this!" ”

Xue Tong scoundrel said: "You asked me to eat, you can't blame me." ”

The beautiful woman smiled, no longer bothered with Xue Tong, turned her head to look out of the window of the boat, the boat gradually approached the island in the middle of the lake, there was a painting boat quietly moored there on the side of the island, the two boats slowly merged, Wang Ruqian on the painting boat walked from the shelf to this side of the boat, the beautiful woman Xu Ansheng stepped forward, Wang Ruqian asked urgently: "What's the matter?" He took the Zhang Yuan book handed over by Xu Ansheng, looked at it twice, and said angrily: "The insatiable man wants to pawn my garden, how can it be reasonable!" As he spoke, he glared at Xue Tong fiercely, and returned to his painting boat, and the painting boat immediately swung away a little-In the painting boat, two men were sitting drinking tea and whispering, and when they saw Wang Ruqian coming in, one of the men of the same age as Wang Ruqian stood up and asked in a low voice: "Ninth brother, how did Zhang Yuan reply?" ”

The man who called Wang Ruqian "Ninth Brother" was nearly forty years old, with a fierce face, and was Wang Ruqian's younger brother, named Wang Shoutai, a prison official in She County, and had very many means, but another middle-aged scholar just sat and drank tea without raising his head -- Wang Ruqian angrily handed the book to Wang Shoutai, Wang Shoutai looked at it, stretched his face and smiled, and said: "I'm not afraid that he is greedy, I'm afraid that he is not greedy, he wants the ninth brother's garden, then pawn him, this is a good opportunity for us to turn over." ”

Wang Ruqian asked, "What do you say?" ”

Wang Shoutai said: "The pawn room is to make a contract, it is to be signed by Zhang Yuan, and we will also publicize it when we send the silver to us, those scholars of the Han Society will not be happy when they hear that Zhang Yuan has 10,000 taels alone, if Zhang Yuan wants to give them the silver, it will be a joke, sit on the ground and share the spoils, this 10,000 taels of silver is actually a quagmire, and the people of the Han Society will all stink when they fall into the quagmire, and then Dong Gongzi will bring the silver to ask Zhang Fenshou, then this false accusation case will not make a fuss, and Zhang Yuan and the reputation of the Han Society will stink, and-"

Speaking of this, Wang Shoutai paused, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sneer, and continued: "I expected that Zhang Yuan saw that we sent the silver with great fanfare, and it was likely that he regretted not daring to accept it, so it was just right, the silver was still the ninth brother's, leaving a stinky quagmire for Zhang Yuan to struggle." ”

Wang Ruqian's brows furrowed, and he praised: "The fourth brother is really a good plan!" But what does that original code mean that I don't tie the garden, why don't you just force me to give it away? ”

Wang Shoutai said: "Shanyin Zhang's good garden is famous, that Zhang Yuan is naturally coveting the red leaves and Dingxiang Bridge of the eldest brother's garden, vainly trying to take this opportunity to occupy it, but he is worried about the bad reputation, so he proposed to live in the garden for 700 taels of silver for 70 years, which is a hypocritical and despicable move to cover his ears and steal the bell. ”

Wang Ruqian nodded, but asked, "Why is it seventy years, not fifty or a hundred years?" ”

Wang Shoutai frowned and said: "I can't guess this, maybe Zhang Yuan thinks he can live for another seventy years." ”

"Seventy years, hehe-" Wang Ruqian sneered again and again, and said: "But I can't come forward to set up a contract with him to set up a garden, the fourth brother will come forward for me, and I will endorse the title deed of the garden to you first." ”

Wang Shoutai agreed, and said: "This Zhang Yuan is actually immature, Ninth Brother rest assured, this is not what Zhang Yuan can not get, if it weren't for Brother Lizhi's accidental arrest this time, we could have won a big victory, but now we have to make more money." ”

Wang Ruqian gritted his teeth and said: "It's nothing to make some silver, I just want this original body to be ruined, but it's a pity that I can't get rid of his fame." ”

At this time, the scribe who was sitting on the side drinking tea and had not spoken spoke: "It's hard to say, although Tang Xuancheng is in the opposition, the power of the Xuandang in the DPRK and China is still not to be underestimated, Qian Qianyi will not escape the impeachment of the official this time, the two of them imagine that if the examiner has a problem, it will be difficult for the candidates led by Zhang Yuan to express their innocence." ”

Wang Ruqian said with a smile: "Brother Han is very right. ”

This scribe surnamed Han and Qian Qianyi are the same list of jinshi, Qian Qianyi is the third in the palace test, he is the first, the champion Han Jing, studied under Xuancheng Tang Binyin, Qian Qianyi's literary name is far better than Han Jing, so when Han Jing is the leader, the scholar is in an uproar, thinking that Tang Binyin, who is the official of the branch office, covers Han Jing, Tang Binyin is the leader of the Xuan Party, so he was impeached by the Donglin Party's officials, and then he was dismissed and returned to his hometown in the following year's Jingcha, Han Jing couldn't stay in the court, and he also resigned and lived idle, Han Jing believed that it was Qian Qianyi who instigated the Donglin Party to impeach his teachers and students, and hated Qian Qianyi very much, It is necessary to take advantage of this Zhejiang Township trial to let Qian Qianyi dismiss the official, which is called returning the other way to the other person......

When Xue Tong entered the city to reply, he saw Zhang Yuan and Huang Zunsu standing on the side of Wanxian Bridge, in front of the gate of Shengmei Cloth Village was "crackling" firecrackers, Zhang Yuan's inscription on the plaque was hung high, in the smoke of firecrackers in Hangzhou Shengmei Cloth Village was officially opened for business, Qingpu Lu had no foundation in Hangzhou, so when Shengmei Cloth Village began to prepare a month ago, the peer merchants in Xicheng were cold-eyed, and secretly discussed preparing to join hands to squeeze out. So all the merchants were silent together - Xue Tong stepped forward and said: "Jie Zi Xianggong, this is Wang Xiucai's reply." ”

Zhang Yuan said: "Okay, the boy has worked hard, hurry up and get the money for opening the opening, and there are fruits to eat." ”

Xue Tong slipped away.

Zhang Yuan read Wang Ruqian's reply, Wang Ruqian's calligraphy is the second king's, and he has skills, Zhang Yuan appreciated it for a moment, and said to Zhang Dai and Huang Zunsu: "Wang Ruqian said that he would send someone to send silver and pawn house deeds before three o'clock in the afternoon - eldest brother, true eldest brother, you two should go with me." ”

Zhang Dai and Huang Zunsu said happily: "Okay, let's go together." ”

So when Wang Shoutai led eight servants carrying silver boxes and a group of drummers to Shengmei Cloth Village at two o'clock in the afternoon, he was told that Zhang Jieyuan was not in the store and asked them to stay for a while, and Zhang Jieyuan would be back soon.
