After hearing Wang Tong's words, Zhang Liansheng was stunned, his expression changed for a while, but his originally sincere and frightened expression gradually became confident, and his waist straightened. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Nanjing and Beijing are far away, since the relocation of the capital, the heart of the empire is on the northern border, but Jiangnan is the tax heart of the Ming Dynasty, and it is the most elite area of the Ming Dynasty, and it must be strictly controlled in hand.
Therefore, there is a corresponding arrangement in Nanjing City, the hub of the south of the Yangtze River, the Xu family of the Duke of Wei on the side of the military generals and nobles, the Nanjing Military Department Shangshu representing the official system, and the Nanjing town guard eunuchs on behalf of the imperial court, and the three parties jointly control Nanjing and control the south of the Yangtze River.
This, the Nanjing military department is sometimes replaced several times a year, and the eunuchs of Nanjing Town will not sit for ten years at most, and the replacement is also frequent, these two positions are replaced like a marquee, only the Xu family of Wei Guogong has been in Nanjing City, and has served as the Nanjing garrison from beginning to end.
The Xu family of Wei Guogong is no different from the lord of Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty, and it is the most authoritative and noble existence.
The ninth son of the Xu family was rampant and domineering in Nanjing City, and there was no such person as Jinyi Wei Qianhu at all, and today Zhang Liansheng knew that his boss was the Marquis of Dingbei, the commander of Jinyi Weidu, and he was also a Qincha, but he didn't dare to do anything to that ninth son, and he trembled.
Until Wang Tong made a move, he saw Wang Tong beating him as if he was beating a dead dog, but the people of the Xu family didn't even dare to be resentful, but they were trembling and panicking there, Zhang Liansheng felt that a new world was opening in front of him, what is the Xu family of Wei Guogong, it turns out that Jinyiwei can be so majestic.
Climb the big tree of Wang Tong by yourself, in the future in Nanjing City, in this land south of the Yangtze River, wouldn't you be able to run rampant, no longer have to be so careful, no longer have to tolerate the arrogance of your colleagues and subordinates, and the future is bright.
Not to mention that this Zhang Liansheng felt a lot of emotion there, the Xu family's cadres were flying and domineering, but they understood very well, as soon as they heard that the person in front of them was Wang Tong, they no longer had any idea of finding the field, but simply bandaged the injured person, and left directly on the boat that followed the side of the painting boat.
As for whether to send it over tomorrow to whip it, that's Wei Guogong's business, and the little ones can't be the masters.
After this scene, the private room was full of bloodstains, and it was impossible to continue listening to the music and drinking, and the Xiu'er was quite calm, and several maids were all soulless.
Waiting for Xu Jiu to lead the people away, Wang Tong and his people also walked off the painting boat, at this time the painting boat was already on the shore, and there were some rich guests in the painting boat, but when they heard the movement of Fang Cai, they knew who the people who were fighting were and who dared to go over to get involved, even if they went to see the excitement, they had to consider whether the neck was strong or not.
That Zhang Liansheng was completely subdued by Wang Tong at the moment, and he couldn't even take care of Xiu'er, and followed Wang Tong off the painting boat, but when he was about to go ashore, he was stopped by the steward of the painting boat.
The steward of the painting boat was full of smiles, but he stopped the front and didn't let him go, but just said there: "If such a big thing happens, the small one can't be the master, and when the master's family comes, I have to ask the lords to give an explanation." ”
was broken into by the young master of the Xu family upstairs, and was stopped by this steward on the side of the painting boat, Zhang Liansheng's face was really lost, at this time he stepped forward suddenly, and slapped the steward in the face with more than a dozen slaps, and scolded angrily: "Blind your dog eyes, don't you know that this is the commander of the Marquis of Dingbei and the Jinyi Guard?" How dare you block the road like this!! ”
The steward's cheeks were red and swollen, but he raised his head and glanced at Zhang Liansheng coldly, but he knelt on the side of the boat, still blocking everyone's way, just said there: "Zhang Qianhu don't be embarrassed with the small one, the master family asked the small one to take care of this painting boat, but today it has become like this, and the master family also needs to ask for a reason..................
Zhang Liansheng wanted to scold again, but Wang Tong stretched out his hand to stop him, and said with a smile: "Don't worry about you, Benhou is here waiting for your master's family to come over, send someone to call, if your master's family doesn't come tonight, I will kill you, and then go to give an explanation." ”
Wang Tong said softly with a smile on his face, but as soon as he said this, the steward, who had never been soft or hard, trembled, kowtowed on the ground, and hurriedly ordered someone to do it.
Bailan Boat on the Qinhuai River, there are many small boats are following, just to listen to the song of the show, so many people follow, the boat is so noisy naturally also know, Wang Tong and others Shi Shiran is waiting on the shore, there are a lot of people watching the excitement from afar, on the Qinhuai River, ten miles of wind and moon, at this time there are also a lot of painting boats walking on the river, at this time they are also stopped, many guests and women are leaning out of the window or on the deck, waiting for the situation here Ni Wang Tong is waiting here, The people up and down the Bailanfang didn't dare to have anything else to stop them, but under the orders of Wang Tong's personal guards, they removed the tables and chairs on the ship, put them on the shore, and re-arranged the wine and food, but Wang Tong sat there leisurely while drinking and enjoying the night of Qinhuai.
"This Chengyong Boyue Jiangnan is the title that the previous generation of Pingmiao had, and it is nothing now, why does the Duke of Wei still have to give some face, and this steward still has so much courage?"
There is one thing that Wang Tong has not said yet, to be able to open a top Qinglou painting boat such as Orchid Building and Bailanfang in a place like Nanjing is also a proof of strength.
Zhang Liansheng still knows whether he is a local head snake aborigine, and explained: "When Hu Zhizhong, the eunuch of Nanjing, took office, the Yue family had helped a little, and with this power, the Yue family also had a support, and the Yue family itself was also there, and with the support of the eunuchs, it was naturally beautiful. ”
For Zhang Liansheng, this Nanjing town guard eunuch is also an unattainable existence, and when he said this, he was also a little apprehensive, and then thought that he had offended the Xu family of Wei Guogong tonight, and it was really nothing to offend this Yue family again, and his courage grew stronger.
Hu Zhizhong, the eunuch of Nanjing, when he was still in charge of Liukelang, once went to Tianjin Wei to investigate and deal with it, but he was inclined to Wang Tong, and after returning to Beijing, he got the lottery to go to Nanjing.
Hu Zhizhong naturally will not tell others about these palace secrets, and others also think that his status as a eunuch in the inner court is authoritative enough, and the prestige is true, but Hu Zhizhong, the eunuch, is really not enough to see in front of Wang Tong, what level Wang Tong deals with the inner court, and what level he is, everyone knows this in their hearts.
After a while, he heard the sound of horses' hooves rushing over there, and most of Wang Tong's personal guards were gathered here, and when they heard this, they were ready for battle.
But soon the guard was lifted, but I saw a richly dressed middle-aged man leading a few entourages to hurry over, as soon as he saw this person coming, the steward with red and swollen cheeks hurriedly ran over to report, and when he arrived, he didn't speak, but was kicked to the ground by the man, and the entourage behind him stepped forward to grab it, and the middle-aged man walked directly towards Wang Tong.
"This is the ...... Cheng Yongbo"
Zhang Liansheng introduced the sentence in a low voice, Wang Tong smiled and was just about to speak, but Cheng Yong Boyue Jiangnan made a big move, and after getting up, he said in a loud voice: "In the lower puppet, Hou Ye should not be surprised, this bastard's head is broken in the lower mansion, and he actually doesn't know the severity of the matter, he delayed the Hou Ye's trip, and he will make amends to the Hou Ye first." ”
Seeing Wang Tong sitting there smiling and not moving, this Yue Jiangnan gritted his teeth, but pulled out a knife from his entourage, asked people to hold down the steward of Bai Lanfang, and said: "This person has offended the tiger power of the Hou Ye, he really deserves to be killed, and he will be dealt with in the future!" ”
After saying that, wielding a knife is to cut down, and the people around him are all gasping, this Wei Guogong is the first wealthy family, and this Cheng Yongbo has also been very beautiful in recent years, how can he be careful in front of this Wang Tong to be like this, and he actually wants to kill his own subordinates, and he doesn't want face or anything?
"Stop him!"
As soon as the knife was waved over there, Wang Tong just opened his mouth and said, Wu Er's movements beside Wang Tong were much faster than this pampered Cheng Yongbo, and he directly stepped forward with the scabbard to stand up, Wang Tong said with a smile: "You are also loyal to your duties, and you are also ordered to do errands, so you don't have to embarrass him." ”
This is considered to be a step, this Cheng Yongbo naturally will not insist, just about to thank him, Wang Tong said: "Bother Cheng Yongbo to get some oil and firewood!" ”
Hearing Wang Tong's request, Yue Jiangnan was stunned, but he still hurriedly ordered his subordinates to do it, and the Qinglou restaurants by the Huai River were densely packed, and oil and firewood were all necessary things, and it was easy to get them.
Not long after a lot of elegance on the shore, at this time there are more and more onlookers, the river can no longer move the boat, all of them are stopped painting boats, the scene is becoming more and more noisy Looking at the oil of a jar of jars, bundles of firewood are almost, Wang Tong opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Uncle Cheng Yong, this Bailanfang has done so many things today, it is really unlucky, burn it!" ”
Being asked by Wang Tong like this, this Chengyong Uncle Yue Jiangnan was stunned at first, and then stunned, not knowing how to answer, Wang Tong smiled and saw that he was silent, this Yue Jiangnan remembered the conversation with Hu Zhizhong, the eunuch of Nanjing Town, and gradually sweated on his forehead, stamped his feet there, and said: "Hou Ye is right, this Bailanfang is indeed unlucky, and it is burned clean." ”
Wang Tong nodded with a smile, and said again: "I'll help Cheng Yongbo burn this painting boat." ”
After finishing speaking, Wang Tong turned around and ordered a few words, Wang Tong and his personal guards began to get on the boat to catch up with people, and the women on the boat, as well as the servants and cooks who served people, were all driven down.
When there was no one in the White Boat, he began to sprinkle the oil all over the ship, and then piled up the firewood on it, and after all these things were ready, Wang Tong took a torch and said loudly: "Burn it clean!" ”
The torch was thrown on the painting boat, the fire was blazing, and the surroundings and the river were quiet all at once
