Chapter Eighty-Six: The Crowd Dominates
Fang Yingwu looked at Miss Wang Liu's hurried back, and said to himself: "Usually full of style, how can you be so unworthy of jokes?" Isn't there anyone who still asks for poetry? If you don't do it, let's go out a few more songs. ”
After another two days, a fleet of ships slowly entered the gate and docked at the dock near the governor's lineage, which was exactly the obedience of Lord Wang Shu.
However, it is said that in early April, due to the silting up of the lower reaches of the Wusong River, the northern part of Suzhou and Changzhou Prefecture were flooded. In the past few days, Governor Wang Shu has personally visited the front line to investigate the disaster situation, and ordered the opening of agricultural warehouses for disaster relief, and asked all counties to organize the victims to repair the embankment.
After a few days of continuous rotation in the disaster area, Wang Zhongcheng returned to Fucheng full of fatigue on this day. He was very strict with himself, the governor's guard of honor was simple, and he did not show the prestige of clearing the field and opening the way, and there were too many literati and eunuchs in Suzhou Prefecture, so it was better to be cautious, and it was not a good thing to invite discussions indiscriminately.
When he was not far from the governor's line, Wang Shu casually looked forward through the small window of the sedan chair, but found that under the big archway outside the line, groups of three or five gathered one or twenty people.
Elder Wang sighed softly, as a third-grade deputy capital governor of the imperial history, he didn't know how many people wanted to see him every day, he had long been used to all this. Although he is a person who is unwilling in the eyes of the high-level and is a person who has been sent to the local area to mess around, he is considered a high authority in this acre and three points of land, and of course there is an endless stream of people looking for a way.
But these people are too well-informed, and they even know when he will return, so they deliberately wait here in advance?
I have just returned to the industry today, and there must be a lot of backlog of official business to deal with, so how can I waste time on socializing? Besides, in the past two days, he has a major government affairs involving local finance and taxation that needs to be carefully considered. Inconvenience to be disturbed.
Thinking of this, Wang Shu beckoned. The general called over and commanded through the window, "Go and speak to those who are waiting." The official will not see the guests today and tomorrow, so let them disperse. ”
The chief retained the order and trotted forward to convey the news to the people. Mr. Wang's sedan chair did not stop when it passed by the archway, until it entered the gate.
But I saw that the chief chased after him out of breath, "The little ones went to say, but they didn't disperse!" ”
Wang Shu has been a local official for a long time and has extremely rich experience, so he immediately thought of something when he heard the words. asked very seriously: "Doesn't his generation have a major grievance to accuse?" If so, please come in immediately. ”
Chang Sui explained: "They said that they didn't come to see you, but asked to see Master Fang!" ”
Fang Gongzi? Wang Shu was stunned for a moment before he reacted, and only one surnamed Fang in the line could be reluctantly called Fang Gongzi. "What are you looking for him?"
Naturally, those who can follow for a long time are clever people, and they have already briefly inquired about the situation, "It seems that Fang Gongzi has been in the limelight these days, and these people have come to visit." ”
Wang Shu couldn't cry or laugh a little, and a group of people gathered in front of the door. It's not to meet his master, but to find Fang Yingwu, which is a hustle and bustle.
It seems that in the past few days when he has been away, Fang Yingwu has made some noise? Children always like to make some movements. In order to attract the attention of adults, it means that you have grown up and matured.
The more such a child, the more he can't take care of him! Wang Shu thought very sophisticatedly.
Originally back to the line. He was going to summon Fang Yingwu to test his studies. Pointing him to read. But now it seems that this person is so restless. Then it's better to hang it first.
When he returned home, Wang Shu really didn't see Fang Yingwu, and hurried to read the official documents in the study. I don't know how long it took, but I saw the elder come over and report: "Master Wen is here, in the front hall." ”
This Wenlin is a Jinshi in Chenghua for eight years, and he has been an official in Nanjing, but due to poor health, he returned home last year to recuperate. He had a few friendships with Wang Shu, but the friendship was not very deep, after all, he was not from the same era, and he was nearly thirty years old.
Wang Shu shouted: "I said that I didn't see the guest, why did you come to report?" ”
Chang Sui replied: "Master Wen said that he didn't need to see the master, he just came to ask for poetry, and he left when he had the right number." ”
Wang Shu was busy with official business, so he had no leisure to entangle, and waved his hand vigorously and said: "I agreed, ask him to leave the topic, go first, and write it to him when he has time." ”
In this world, it is very common to seek literature from each other. Whether it is a birthday celebration, a monument, a preface, a send-off, a family tree, etc., you need to ask others to write poems and articles, of course, the more famous the better. If you have a relationship, you will use favors, and if it doesn't matter, you will spend money to buy it.
Chang Sui was puzzled: "But Master Wen said that he came to ask Fang Gongzi to write a poem of persuasion for his little son, not to find the master, may I ask if the master agrees?" ”
Rao is Wang Shu has a firm heart, and he can't help but feel a little embarrassed at this time, why did he come to find Fang Yingwu again? Is Fang Yingwu really so good?
"It's casual! Tell Fang Yingwu not to treat the guests slowly! Wang Shu was worried that Fang Yingwu was young and frivolous and didn't know how important it was, so he ordered.
In fact, even if Elder Wang doesn't say it, Fang Yingwu will not be slow, because the son of Master Wen Linwen is called Wen Zhengming, and he is the same age as Tang Yin this year
However, Wang Shu was also curious, and said to the people around him: "You go to the sixth sister and take a few of Fang Yingwu's poems to take a look!" ”
After a short time, he came back with a note, Wang Shu put down his official duties, unfolded the paper and looked at it, but saw that there were two poems of seven laws. looked at this poem of falling flowers, and then looked at the song of the pavilion, and Mr. Wang was deeply confused
The level of the poem is high, but that's not the point. The key is that there are thousands of differences between these two seven laws, one is sad and sad in spring and autumn, and the other is a work of Ruili and Taiping, which is not like a person's technique at all, is Fang Yingwu a person with a split personality?
Or has Fang Yingwu reached the point where he can do whatever he wants, and he can produce whatever effect he wants? Is this impossible?
Just when he was puzzled, another door official came to report: "There is a former Shaoqing Master Li outside the door to visit." ”
Wang Shu put down the poems in his hand and ordered: "Please! ”
He said that he had not seen any outsiders in the past two days, and of course it was for ordinary people, and of course it was not for relatives and friends who were relatively close.
The "former Shaoqing Master Li" in the mouth of the door official refers to the former Shaoqing Li Yingzhen of Nanjing Taifu Temple, the word Zhenbo, and the number Fan An. He is a calligrapher and a cultural celebrity. Mr. Li is a native of Suzhou. When he was just in his fifties, he resigned and returned home, and now lives in the city of Suzhou.
Wang Shu served as an official in Nanjing for a long time. has a lot of friendship with Li Yingzhen, so it's not good to keep him out. What's more, this Li Yingzhen was invited by Wang Shu on his own initiative, and he was going to ask him for some details.
You must know that the Beijing officials are different from the local officials, and the Beijing officials can clean themselves up, but the local officials need to deal with the local big families frequently, otherwise many things will not be done well.
Not long after, Master Li Yingzhen was led by his subordinates and came to the outside of the study. Wang Shu took a few steps forward and invited him in. The guest and host sat down, exchanged a few words about their recent situation, and then got to the point.
Wang Shu invited: "Fan An hasn't seen me for a long time, don't leave this time, you and I will talk about wine and night, I still have something to ask you to help plan." ”
Li Yingzhen was noncommittal about the invitation, but asked first: "Jie'an Gong, even if you don't invite you." I'll be there too. I heard that Fang Yingwu Fang Gongzi lives in your mansion? ”
Are you looking for a prescription again? Boss Wang Shu is already a little numb, it seems that everyone is looking for a prescription today, who is the master of this governor's line?
He hesitated for a moment as he sent someone to call Fang Yingwu over. On the other hand, he asked rhetorically: "This son is indeed in my house, you want to look for him, could it be that there is something wrong with him?" ”
Li Yingzhen smiled bitterly: "Little brother, I am entrusted by others. Be a lobbyist. ”
Wang Shu was about to ask for details, but saw that Fang Yingwu had already entered the study. I couldn't help but curse in my heart. This guy is really fast, I'm afraid I've been waiting for the opportunity to find me!
Fang Yingwu greeted his cheap grandfather after the ceremony. Just as he was secretly looking at another old man and guessing who he was, he heard Wang Shu shouting at him: "This is Lord Li, the former Shaoqing of the Taifu Temple, I want to find you for something, listen carefully to the lesson!" ”
Fang Yingwu saluted again, but saw this old Mr. Li and said with a smile: "Jie'an's public words are serious, I just came to be a peacemaker." Among young people, there are often conflicts of will, and some things can be let go after the past, and it is better to settle the grievances than to settle them. ”
Peacemaker? Who is this for? Is it Wang Quan's family, or is it one of the trio? Fang Yingwu didn't speak, thinking in his heart while continuing to listen.
Mr. Li said slowly: "Fang Xiaoyou, you and that Wang Quan had a quarrel and had a quarrel in Wangyuan Tower, this is because he slandered Shang Xianggong first, and it was indeed his fault.
Now the Wang family has punished Wang Quan, because I have an old relationship with Jie'an, so the Wang family entrusted the old man to be a middle-aged person, and asked Fang Xiaoyou to go to the Wang family in Dongshan. Turning hostility into jade silk, smiling at enmity and hatred, what does Fang Xiaoyou think? ”
Fang Yingwu immediately guessed what the Wang family meant. This time, Wang Quan lost a lot of face, and he was caught plagiarizing poetry in a hurry, which is definitely a scandal, and it affects the face of the Wang family.
From the perspective of the Wang family, Wang Quan is also a young and talented person, and it is likely that he will have achievements in the future, of course, he must protect it. After all, the ancestors of the Wang family are not from a family of eunuchs, and they have only begun to show signs from Wang Wei, and Wang Quan, the younger brother of Wang Wei, is the next object to be pinned on with high hopes.
But if you want to maximize the impact of the scandal, there is no better way to invite others to meet, and then drink and talk and understand each other.
If even he, the client, forgives Wang Quan, and even further pretends to form friends who don't know each other, then others have nothing to say, and the pressure of public opinion will naturally be relieved. All that's left is to use time to gradually smooth out this matter.
Facing the olive branch extended by the Wang family, Fang Yingwu thought about it again, it was okay to agree, and it was not a bad thing to solve a grudge.
is still a little more generous, and he was about to answer after thinking about it, but he was grabbed by Wang Shu's cheap grandfather.
I saw that Mr. Wang shouted to Mr. Li in a righteous manner: "Doesn't Fan An hear about the prince of heaven and earth? That Wang Quan slandered Fang Yingwu's master first, it was like insulting people's parents, which is tolerable and which is unbearable! How can it be easily forgiven?
The sincerity of the Wang family, I think it is still far away, Fan An, you are not worth it to be this lobbyist, please go back! Tell the Wang family to reflect carefully and then come to discuss reconciliation! ”
Fang Yingwu looked at Elder Wang dumbfounded, this is my own business, what are you old man shouting about? It's just too noisy. (To be continued.) )
