Chapter 216: Great Etiquette (4)

The housekeeper Zhu Biao suddenly ran in from outside in a hurry, interrupting the family happiness that Li Wenxuan was enjoying. When he learned that Qian Mingzheng was visiting, he expected in his heart that the other party must have come for that matter. Although he was reluctant to go out, he couldn't see Qian Mingzheng, so he left Zhao Tianer's Xiaoxiang Pavilion and went to the main hall of Fuzhong to meet guests.

The third-class maid in the house, Roselle, followed the rules and served tea to Qian Mingzheng early. Li Wenxuan, who walked into the main hall and saw him, first greeted him, and then sat down in the position that should be in the master's house. Qian Mingzheng, who was sitting parallel to himself, had no less ripples in his heart since he came here, after all, they were all officials in the same dynasty, but Li Wenxuan, a small official of the sixth rank of Qin Tianjian Zheng, was able to live in such a luxurious deep mansion compound, and he could only rent a courtyard house that was quite in line with his identity and decency.

Qian Mingzheng, who didn't care much about this, just thought about it a little, knew Li Wenxuan's ability very well, and also knew that it was impossible for him to buy this big mansion in a short period of time in a clear water cold yamen, and if he really wanted to make a lot of money, he would have done it in the position of the prefect of Guangxin Mansion. He has political ideals and can be regarded as a clean and honest man, all of which should be Li Wenxuan's family background, after all, his businessman father-in-law, Lin Zhengbei, is the richest man in Guangxin Mansion.

Li Wenxuan, who is a gentleman who loves money and takes it in a good way, did not speak first, but waited patiently. Although he knows why Qian Mingzheng came, he also has to show indifference, after all, he can stay out of the matter. He thinks that he has no iron backbone, and he does not want political speculation, nor does he want to express his position in a book. really offended the emperor, if he was pulled out of the gang to be spanked, Li Wenxuan, who didn't think it was a thing that could be gilded and glorified, always felt that his official position was given by Jiajing, so he had to follow this boss, instead of following Xia Yan, who was a fellow villager and didn't give anything to himself.

"In the morning, you and I hurriedly met in the Qintian Prison and said goodbye, but we didn't expect such a thing to happen in the court. So, I came to your house to bother me. "Qian Mingzheng, who came here in person, just wanted to find out from Li Wenxuan's mouth what kind of attitude Xia Yan and others had towards this matter.

"The two of us are old acquaintances, and there should be no such false courtesy. Nowadays, Lord Qian is rising, even if you are invited, you have to queue up in advance. No, Xia Guan was about to invite Lord Qian to come, but he didn't expect you to come by such a coincidence. It's a real pleasure. Seeing that he had an opening remark, Li Wenxuan naturally wanted to be polite and greet the other party.

Knowing that he was polite, Qian Mingzheng first signaled him to retreat from the slaves in the hall, and then cut the topic to the main topic of coming here: "Presumably you already know about the matter in the court, but I don't know if Lu Dao can tell me what Lord Shoufu means?" After all, you are Lord Xia's protΓ©gΓ©. ”

It is very clear that he and Xia Yan, Yan Song and the others are Li Wenxuan, who has never been cleared up, and I believe that the purpose of his coming here is the same as what Lu Yong thought when he asked himself. The higher he sits, the more cautious and cautious he becomes. Sometimes, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as walking on thin ice. Not to mention the big question of right and wrong.

Although Li Wenxuan was not particularly clear about the whole process of the great ceremonial dispute when Emperor Jiajing ascended the throne, he knew that the matter had been carried out for more than ten years and there was no final result. Now, there are people coming and going to poke this hornet's nest, which makes the officials in the capital nervous, after all, this is a treasure, you can be promoted to make a fortune, and if you press it wrong, I am afraid you will have to go unlucky. If you are an official of your own level, you can not show your attitude, after all, you can prevaricate under the pretext of others' subtle words. And if it is Qian Mingzheng, a deputy ministerial-level official, it is naturally impossible to hide from the mud.

Recalling that he was in Qintianjian today and saw the lively scene of his colleagues, Li Wenxuan had to recombine what he had said to Lu Yong and said: "Xia Guan really doesn't know what kind of attitude Xia Shoufu is. As for Yan Shangshu's direct attitude, it may not be the old man's intention. ”

It can be said that Qian Mingzheng, who pricked up his ears to listen, carefully recalled his words, but felt that he did not give a positive answer. Qian Mingzheng, who was a little anxious, played the emotional card and said: "In the capital, I know you." You and I are flesh and blood, and you have to show me a way. ”

"Lord Qian, you are serious. Xia Guan really just knows so much. To tell you the truth, we all learned about that today, and if I really went to see the old man, I wouldn't have met you at home. Li Wenxuan, who was telling the truth, pretended to be reassuring and said: "You really want a positive answer, and the lower official still suggests that you go and ask Lord Shoufu in person." I don't know anything about this kind of thing, so I can't say no. ”

Qian Mingzheng, who couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a while, realized that even if he continued to ask, there would be no result. With his eyes fixed on Li Wenxuan, he retreated and said, "You also know that I am a newcomer." I don't know if you can introduce me or not, so that I can visit Xia Shoufu and Yan Shangshu. ”

Li Wenxuan, who thought for a while, smiled and said, "Master Qian, you really look up to it." I'm just a mere deputy supervisor of the sixth grade, how can He De have such a big face. The old gentleman carried his love down, so he was able to go in and out of his house. Speaking of Yan Shangshu, I just borrowed the light of the old gentleman to just get acquainted. ”

Hearing him talk about this part, Qian Mingzheng completely understood that things should not be done again. He fully realized that it was not interesting for him to stay here, and when he saw Li Wenxuan's tone was so tight, he reflected that the other party did not trust him. In this regard, he did not feel the slightest surprise, and felt that all this seemed normal. In fact, he and Li Wenxuan really don't have much private friendship. Even at that time in Guangxin Mansion, the two were just acquaintances, but they did not have the back and forth of Liu Wenjing, who could burn a cold stove.

Qian Mingzheng, who stood up slowly, said goodbye. There was no unhappiness on his face, after all, it was better to know that one more friend was better than one more enemy. What's more, he and Li Wenxuan are still officials in the same dynasty in the capital. In his opinion, although Li Wenxuan's current official position is indeed not very good, the other party's starting point is high, his background is deep, and his backing is hard. Instead of putting the icing on the cake at that time and sticking your own hot face to the other party's cold buttocks, it is better to invest in this cold stove now. In the future, it will be good to take care of each other and be considerate.
