Chapter 183: Can't Let Him Know......
This town guard eunuch Li Yi is in his prime, about forty years old, with an ordinary face but a majestic figure, if it is not for the lack of a beard, he does not look like a eunuch.
After serving tea, the host and guest did not know each other, and there was nothing to greet, so they talked about it through Wang Zhi's words. Eunuch Li asked, "Is Wang Gong okay in Yulin?" ”
Fang Yingwu knew that this was the other party's temptation, so he said a few words about Wang Zhi's situation. zuihou said lightly: "Wang Changgong is fine, but he was assassinated once, and he was lucky to save him once." ”
It seems that it is not entirely a swagger in the name of Wang Zhi, so Eunuch Li asked very directly: "Friend Fang came to the door today, what are you doing?" ”
Eunuch Li knew very well in his heart that the young man in front of him was probably just doing things under the sign of Wang Zhi. But the shadow of the famous tree, even Wang Zhi's signboard, should not be underestimated, and it should be dealt with.
The other party was direct, and Fang Yingwu was not polite, "There is a villager surnamed Wang below, who has a workshop outside the Wulin Gate. However, recently, the Weaving Bureau was very pressed to ask for it, and he couldn't bear it, so he entrusted him to ask Li Gong for personal favors. ”
Wang Zhi's signboard may not be omnipotent, but the Weaving Bureau's extortion of a workshop is really a trivial matter for Eunuch Li. Under normal circumstances, no one would offend Wang Zhi's signboard for such a trivial matter, and it is not cost-effective to calculate the gains and losses.
"Wang's silk weaving factory?" Eunuch Li frowned for a long time when he heard this, and then said, "If the ignorant people under my hands disturb your fellow villagers, I will naturally reprimand them." But this time there is another reason for this, but it is not for me to make the decision. ”
This was very unexpected, although Eunuch Li had a good attitude. But he actually refused? This is obviously a trivial matter, and Eunuch Li doesn't even want to do this favor?
I didn't wait for Fang Yingwu to go out of the doorway. Eunuch Li added again, seemingly relieved: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. When things are at the worst they will mend! ”
Fang Yingwu already had a clue, and under normal circumstances, it should indeed be as he thought, but now it was unexpected, and there were probably no more than two reasons when he thought about it.
First, Eunuch Li didn't care about Wang Zhi, so he didn't give this face. The second is that there are others involved in this matter, and Eunuch Li is not good at refuting that person's face, so he will refuse politely.
Judging from Eunuch Li's attitude, he doesn't look like a person who dares not to put Wang Zhi in his eyes, otherwise he wouldn't have invited himself in just seeing Wang Zhi's name. So the latter reason is more likely. In other words, there are still others in charge of this matter.
So who is this person? This person can withstand Wang Zhi's signboard, which is at least at the level of a senior minister, that is to say, at least he is in charge of politics and inspection. Somehow, Fang Yingwu thought of Lu Chen, the right-hand political envoy of Zhejiang.
Because there was an inference when he visited Ning Yanei and Ning Bu's political envoy before, it was speculated that Lu Chen had colluded with Eunuch Li, so the relationship between Lord Lu and Eunuch Li must be good.
If you have to find a possibility, then Lord Lu has the greatest possibility. After all, he was just talking to Eunuch Li under the guise of Wang Zhi, but he didn't know the truth and reality, and he didn't come in person. Thinking of a political envoy is indeed enough to top a piece of Wang Zhi's signboard that does not know the truth.
But what's even more strange, why does a right-hand political envoy go to the Wang family to trouble? Could it be that Lord Lu wanted to embezzle some money on a whim, so he randomly selected the Wang family? How outrageous this is, it's not the style of the big man at all.
Fang Yingwu took a sip of tea. He asked slowly: "This is just a small thing that can't be smaller, and I am here to plead with Gong Li, is it really unwilling to be accommodating?" ”
Eunuch Li still didn't change his words and said, "I'm going to disappoint Friend Fang." ”
Fang Yingwu put down the teacup and sighed. Shaking his head, he said, "Then Lord Lu took the wrong medicine?" ”
"Presumably Lord Lu is too" Eunuch Li unconsciously followed Fang Yingwu to continue, and the words were only halfway through. I found out that I had lost my words!
His half sentence is tantamount to echoing Fang Yingwu. indirectly admitted that it was Lord Lu who was secretly making trouble, and suddenly Eunuch Li couldn't cry or laugh.
He, the dignified eunuch who came out of the treacherous palace, was actually tricked by Fang Yingwu, a young man of less than twenty! Wouldn't it be laughing off the big teeth of your peers?
Fang Yingwu held back a smile and knocked on the side: "Gong Li! Mingren doesn't say dark words, although he has already guessed it, he still doesn't understand, why can't Mr. Lu get along with a small workshop? ”
Eunuch Li didn't want to get too stiff with the person who played Wang Zhi's signboard, so he would have been beaten out if someone else asked about it. "I don't know! Lord Lu just sent someone to ask for the Weaving Bureau to find the Wang family's workshop outside the Wulin Gate. For the sake of friendship, I just did it, and I didn't know anything about the rest. ”
After identifying the troublemaker, Fang Yingwu became more and more confused.
People always have a motive to do things, what benefits can Lu Buzheng get by doing this? The Wang family has a little money, but it is only relative to ordinary people, what is there that deserves the attention of the big people?
Besides, Lord Lu is only a right-hand political envoy, and it is now a critical moment to plot against the left-hand political envoy, so what's the point of making extraneous branches at this time?
With all kinds of doubts, Fang Yingwu left the eunuch's mansion. As soon as he returned to the hostel, he saw the servants of the royal family waiting.
"Fang Xianggong! My grandfather asked me to deliver a message. The servant said, "Today, the steward of the Lu Mansion sent a post to the Wang's house, inviting my lord to meet tomorrow in the canal's proud building. It is said that the Lu Mansion needs to prepare a large amount of silk to marry a daughter, and it is necessary to discuss this business with my master.
However, the post also invited Fang Xianggong to you, but I don't know where Fang Xianggong lives, so I entrusted my master to send a message and invite Fang Xianggong to go with him tomorrow. ”
Does this mean Cao Cao? Fang Yingwu secretly thought, he was full of Lord Lu, and he would be sent to the door now.
In the opinion of Fang Yingwu, who knew the inside story, Lu Fu invited Wang De to talk about big business, no matter how you look at it, it is like a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken. But could it be that Lord Lu regretted it, so he wanted to make up for his previous mistakes?
Wrong! Fang Yingwu suddenly woke up, just invite Wang De, why do you have to invite yourself? There's something strange about that.
Could it be that Lord Lu was Xiang Zhuang dancing the sword from the beginning, and he intended to be Pei Gong? His purpose is actually not the Wang family, but himself? Or is it that if there is no trouble, you have to create trouble, and deliberately make the favor of the Wang family and sell it to yourself?
Fang Yingwu smiled bitterly, he has always been extremely firm in front of the Wang family and said, "This matter has nothing to do with me", persuaded Wang Xiaoniang, persuaded Wang Kui, and even caused Wang Xiaoniang and Wang Kui to be dissatisfied with the suspicious Wang De.
Actually, it's not a lie, that's what he really thinks. But I didn't expect that the incident that was making trouble was related to him, and it could barely be said to be because of him.
Fang Yingwu thought of something again, couldn't help but pat his forehead, and shouted "I'm damned" in his heart! Don't let Wang De know the inside story, otherwise he will definitely start to get tired again! (To be continued......)
PS: Last night, the smell of gunpowder in the book friend group was very strong, and out of the original intention of letting everyone calm down, I couldn't stop everyone from arguing and temporarily kicked a few people to clear the field. Then a few people added back, but a few didn't. I have the impression that there are Wang Sun Wuyang, guerrilla followers, Liu Chao, etc., if my simple and rude hurt your hearts and liver, I am here to Daoqian to you, sorry, you come back、......
