Chapter 97: The Means of Harnessing Men

"Why bother? Why bother, you say? The plain woman lifted the hood on her head, the delicate and pretty figure, the delicate and charming face, not the Duan family's Mrs. Wenren's family, but at this moment, due to excitement, the white and round forehead was clearly visible green tendon erection, and her hands were also tightly pinched in front of her chest.

"Zheng Qianguan, if you hadn't killed someone, how could my master have died, and if you hadn't been acquitted, how could the Duan Mansion have declined? If you hadn't scolded people at Tianjin Wharf, who in Daxing County would dare to point fingers and poke at me behind my back? Why do you say that? She can't wait to bite off a bite of the good official's meat, at the beginning of the Tianjin wharf, the good official's scolding spread all over the Shuntian Mansion almost within a few days, first someone went to the Qinglou to remember, there are women who do not give face and refuse to receive, some people borrow [Mo pretend, pretend to be forced to be struck by thunder] to scold those women who take the shelf, and then, this unhealthy wind spreads to the people, the two families quarrel, and some people will be scolded like this, and finally even some officials privately laughed at the Qingliu Imperial History and who the book was involved, which Imperial History was reprimanded, also waved a fan with a sentence [Mo pretended to be forced to be struck by lightning], which can be said to be infinitely poisonous.

And the most critical figures in this matter, Zheng Guofan and Wen Ren's family, the obedient officials went south, they didn't know at all, Wen Ren's family was miserable, such a scolding quatrain, as long as people remembered not to pretend to be forced, they always had to say, oops! At the beginning, this was the widow of the Zheng family's little minister who scolded the dead ghost Duan Qianhu in Tianjin.

In the end, Mrs. Duan had a title in Daxing County, pretending to be Mrs. Duan, this title was so widely spread that even the servants of the Duan family heard about it, once Wen Ren's family was resting in the courtyard, and when he returned to the room, he passed by the cloister, and heard the servants below biting his ears in the corner of the cloister, saying that his wife was called Mrs. Pretending to be Mrs. outside.

This...... This...... This is really Mrs. Duan's affection.

Hearing the anger of the people, it is really a Buddha born and two Buddhas Nirvana, and I can't wait to bite Zheng Guansheng one bite at a time and swallow it slowly into my stomach.

She always thought that she was just protecting herself, when she was in court, she secretly went down the steps of the county order, and later did not trouble the Zheng family, but Zheng Chengguan made a Mulan speech, and the name became louder and louder, when she wanted to go south, she followed behind, and she did not have the purpose of wanting the Zheng family to ruin people, but she wanted to use the name of Zheng Chengguan to muddy the water, but she never expected that the charm of foul language was so great, and it spread several times faster than that Mulan song. The number of people who have heard it and immediately learned to use it is dozens of times more than that Mulan poem.

The name of this pretending to be Mrs. spread throughout Daxing County almost overnight, so that the servants of Duan Mansion had to be pointed at and poked when they went out, and finally there were two domestic servants who often went out to buy and their faces were really unbearable, and they sneaked away, and they didn't even care about the documents in Duan Mansion.

In this way, Wenren's face is really unbearable, if it is an ordinary chaste woman, maybe she will find a good puff to lead to the inside, but who is she Wenren! Born in the head of the upper hall, can read and hyphenate words, play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, enter the kitchen and get out of the hall, married two husbands, one has a lot of money to know Fusang characters, and the other is the deputy Qianhu of the imperial court's military general, let her jump into the well? No way.

At that time, it was the season when the obedient official was proud in Ningbo, and the Wenren clan bit his silver teeth in Daxing County, thinking, Zheng Chengguan, you have made me have no way to live, and you don't want to have a way to live.

Coincidentally, she wanted to play with the good official, and the opportunity came.

The Zhejiang political envoy Li Shaonan and the county magistrate of Daxing County, Shen Dunyu, had an unforgettable enmity, and they couldn't help but be overjoyed to learn that the recently famous Zheng Guofan was a student of Shen Dunyu. His backstage is Zhang Whale, the eunuch of Dongchang's palm print, this Dongchang and Jinyiwei are both well-known spy organizations, and they are the best at spying on news, so he sent someone to transfer the news of Dongchang, and he knew everything about Zheng Guofan's family.

After reading those materials, he admired Mrs. Duan very much, such a character can actually make Shen Dunyu ask with a red face, that is also talented, but it is a pity that it is a woman, otherwise, it is not impossible to wear red hairpins to the streets. However, he Li Shaonan hired people, but he didn't care whether it was a man or a woman, so he sent someone to take his name and stab himself, and rushed to Daxing County with the fast horse of the post station, and asked Mrs. Duan after posting Duanfu, do you want to grasp the power and let Zheng Guofan and even Daxing County Ling kneel in front of him?

This kind of opportunity came to the door, Wen Renshi almost didn't even hesitate, packed up his things and went south, and went south to Hangzhou, seeing her so beautiful, even Li Shaonan was stunned, Wen Renshi has seen a lot of this kind of person, and there are more ways to deal with stinky men, so naturally he will not ask Li Shaonan to take advantage of it, you know, she is also a five-grade lady now, and she went south in the name of handkerchief Hou Xiaohong, the concubine of Lord Li, the envoy of Zhejiang Buzheng Secretary.

As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, and stealing is better than stealing. If you want to seek revenge on Zheng Chengguan, then, you can't take advantage of Li Shaonan Li in any case, you know, a man who is willing to give courtesy to a beautiful woman grabs a handful, but there is no man who is willing to give courtesy to his own yellow-faced woman, so Wen Ren's resolutely refuses to take advantage of Li Shaonan, but he is always by Hou Xiaohong's side, and Li Shaonan is itching, not to mention, Wen Ren's idea is indeed feasible, and Li Shaonan has to admit that if it is done well, It is not impossible to even remove the Zhejiang governor Cai Tai who is above him.

However, Hou Xiaobai's sister has a lot of skills in training men, and she recruited her younger brother with a letter, and she didn't even need to be swayed, Hou Xiaobai was fascinated by Wenren's beauty and couldn't tell the east, west, north and south, and when her head was hot, she had to go to Ryukyu to personally supervise it according to Wenren's idea. And his sister Hou Xiaohong, although she is a little reluctant to let her younger brother go to sea to go to sea to adventure in a small country, however, this Wenren's appearance is too beautiful, and the threat to herself is too great, and if she doesn't have herself, she knows very well what her brother is, so she is reluctant to let the child catch the wolf, and she is reluctant to share the bed with other women.

Seeing that his brother-in-law was also involved, Li Shaonan actually didn't like it very much, but he couldn't stand Hou Xiaohong's powerful way of controlling men, and he didn't give the political envoy a bed for a few days, so he obediently let the political envoy obey, so he had to watch his brother-in-law and the beauty go out to sea in a boat.

Hou Xiaobai and Wenren's floating boat Ryukyu, it was more than half a month ago, and Li Shaonan still imagined that he had overturned Cai Tai, the governor of Zhejiang, who had come to his door, but he didn't know that when he was thinking about dealing with Zheng Guofan, there was already an invisible shackle around his neck.

In November, the sister of the obedient official, Zheng, was praised by the Empress Dowager Chen because she went to serve in the palace of the Empress Dowager Chen, and the Wanli Emperor took this opportunity to ask the Empress Dowager Chen to raise the Zheng family, and the Empress Dowager Chen also liked her, and the most critical point is that the Wang family, who gave birth to the emperor's eldest son last year, is the palace maid of the Empress Dowager Li.

As the main palace of Emperor Longqing, Wanli's father, Empress Dowager Chen felt that she should take her majesty out, otherwise, the entire harem only knew that there was Empress Dowager Li, but she didn't know that there was Empress Dowager Chen above Empress Dowager Li, so she almost didn't even hesitate, and agreed to the emperor with a smile at that time, and Zheng became Concubine De.

Below the queen, the noble concubine, the lady concubine, the virtuous concubine, and the virtuous concubine, this is the so-called four ladies in the past dynasties since the Tang Dynasty, the rank is equivalent to the first product, and the rest of the concubines and these four cannot be compared, which is equivalent to the difference between the miscellaneous generals and generals of the imperial court, and the difference between civil concubines and peaceful wives.

Historically, Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Ming Dynasty was born to Concubine Dou De, and Liu E, the concubine of Emperor Zhenzong of the Song Dynasty, later even became the empress and the empress dowager.

The canonization of Concubine De is not trivial, it is to be sacrificed to the ancestral temple, and a memorial text is made by a respected minister, because of the favor of the Zheng family today, the canonization speed is too fast, and even caused the opposition of several cabinet elders, however, when the Empress Dowager Chen lightly said that this is the special permission of the mourning family, several cabinet elders immediately had no opinion.

Zhang Siwei, the first assistant of the cabinet, took the lead in saying that since it was appointed by the queen mother, the minister would ask for a bargain, and the minister would do it!

The rest of the pavilion elders secretly scolded Zhang Siwei for his shamelessness and cheekiness, but the first assistant all spoke, and it would be uninteresting for him to speak again, so he jointly recommended Zhang Siwei, and they all said that Zhang Ge was the first Ji Shi of the Hanlin Academy of the first emperor back then, and this sacrifice should be done by Zhang Ge Lao.

Speaking of the first emperor, it caused the Empress Dowager Chen to cry, Wanli quickly knelt down and asked the Empress Dowager not to be sad, he was raised by the Empress Dowager Chen since he was a child, and his own mother, the Empress Dowager Li, was strict, causing him to be in awe of the Empress Dowager Li, but closer to the Empress Dowager Chen.

Empress Dowager Chen smiled with tears in her eyes, saying that the emperor was old and knew that it hurt people.

These royal words will not be detailed one by one, in short, when the moon was over, the Zheng family got his wish and became a concubine.

The eunuchs in the palace are all astute people, the Zheng family was originally favored, and some smart people leaned on the Zheng family early in the morning, and now the Zheng family has been named Concubine De, which is even more rising, you know, the queen has never been liked by the emperor, as for Wang Gongfei, it was Wanli who was surnamed for a while, and she was happy in the garden once, but she didn't expect to win the bid and give birth to the emperor's eldest son. In fact, Wanli has no good impression of Concubine Wang Gong at all, every time he sees Concubine Wang Gong, he thinks of the absurdity of his youth, and Empress Dowager Li forced him to make Wang a concubine, he hates Concubine Wang even more, and the sequelae of this is that he has greatly disliked his eldest son all his life.

And now that the Zheng family canonized Concubine De, the meaning here, how can the eunuchs who rely on figuring out the master's thoughts not be able to see it, and they even bow down to Concubine De's door, calling themselves Concubine De's lackeys.

A big man of the level of Zhang Whale, the eunuch of Dongchang, was not so shameless, so he had to pull down his old face to pat the fart of a newly canonized concubine, but when he found out that his right-hand man Li Shaonan had secretly transferred the information of Dongchang, he was furious at the moment, and after checking it, he understood everything. He also knew about the turmoil of the top two Jinshi back then, and now it is clear that Li Shaonan is going to attack Zheng Guofan.

However, this junior official of the Zheng family is the younger brother of Concubine De, that is the emperor's brother-in-law, is that what you can do with a Zhejiang political envoy?

However, Li Shaonan is a useful cadre under his subordinates, famous, capable, means, and loyal, and the filial piety silver is also sent to Beijing like water, and occasionally secretly does some private work, just to get out of the breath of the year, which is understandable. Therefore, Zhang Whale Zhang Dugong decided to pull Li Shaonan, so he sent a useful fan under his command to Hangzhou, and told that Fanzi that he would go to reprimand Li Shaonan first, and then tell him about Concubine De Niangniang, and let him quickly wipe his butt clean, it is estimated that at most after the New Year, Concubine De's father will be crowned the governor of the five armies of Nanjing.

When Li Shaonan learned that Zheng Guofan was the younger brother of Concubine De, who was now being favored, his face turned pale with fright, his feet were weak, and he almost fell to his knees.

He pondered for a long time, and in the end, he didn't care about any fighting and face, and personally went to the door of Cai Tai, the governor of Zhejiang, and said that Zheng Guofan, a famous man who is now famous in Zhejiang, is the younger brother of Concubine De's mother, which scared Mrs. Cai out of a sweat, you know, as the governor of a province, things on the ground in Zhejiang are still very clear, and now he is engaged in the Yan family, ready to open his mouth and swallow the Yan family, but the relationship between Zheng Xiaoxianggong and the Yan family is also vaguely heard in Zhejiang.

He thought about it for a long time, and finally suddenly realized, mud horse, what do you mean Li Shaonan ran to my house? Isn't this typical of dragging me into the water? I could have pretended I didn't know. That hatred at the time! hated it so much that it itched its teeth, and I couldn't wait to slap Li Shaonan to death. The way of the official is to focus on harmony, these accounts have to be left for the future to be slowly calculated, and the most important thing now is to deal with this matter beautifully.

The two had a tacit understanding, and immediately abandoned their prejudices, a governor and a political envoy, and went to Ningbo at the same time, but the news of Ningbo made the two crazy, and Zheng Guofan had just gone to sea for two days. The two did not dare to hesitate, and immediately transferred the soldiers of the four thousand households of the Thousand Households of the Thousand Households of Luopu, the Thousand Households of Zhaura, the Thousand Households of the Thousand Households in front of Shipu, and the Thousand Households in the back of the Ishigura, as well as the warships of the four guards in the front and back of Dinghai, and headed for the Ryukyus.

At this time, Li Shaonan was almost desperate in his heart, he just subconsciously wanted to salvage the life-saving straw, he even prepared a deadly poison to hide on his body, but he was still in his heart, counting on his brother-in-law to be a big straw bale.

What is his brother-in-law Hou Xiaobai doing?

Hou Xiaobai was laughing, "Brother Fengzhang, people are doing it, the sky is watching, when you were in Ningbo Hai, you slapped me in the face and lost my face, as the so-called gentleman takes revenge for three years, feng shui takes turns!" ”
