Chapter 201 Clues

When Wei Shuying heard this, he couldn't help but smile even more, and specially glanced at the main seat a few times. When he saw someone like this, even if he was uneasy in his heart, his face was as if nothing had happened, so that Tao Fuyin didn't know that he was setting himself on fire.

Wei Shuying asked Gu Chuyu, "What do you think?" Should the officials continue to send Mei Fucheng this bowl of idle rice? ”

"She is the person recommended by Wei Guogong to enter Beijing, you said that there is no shortage of mansions in the Beijing Government Office, then you will prove it to the prime minister and Wei Guogong." Gu Chuyu said, "From today onwards, Mei Xiaoren will temporarily rest at home for half a month, and you will be in charge of the affairs of the Beijing Government Office here." ”

"Commanded by humility." Tao Fu Yin had a happy smile on his face.

Tao Fuyin knew that the Prime Minister and Wei Guogong were not all the way, how could the Prime Minister allow Wei Guogong's staff to stay in the capital, but he just drove them away rashly, which was afraid that Wei Guogong would not be convinced, so the Prime Minister came up with such a way to convince Wei Guogong.

"But if you don't manage it well, then your derogatory words today will not be true, and the prime minister has no choice but to believe that you are old, and allow you to sue the old man and return to his hometown, so as to give Wei Guogong an explanation."

Tao Fu Yin arched his hand: "The Prime Minister can rest assured, his humble position will definitely live up to the expectations of the adults." ”

Gu Chuyu turned to ask Mei Xiaoren: "Do you have any objections?" ”

Mei Xiaoren responded: "There is no objection to the humble position. ”

After the matter was decided, Wei Shuying got up and walked towards Tao Fu Yin, patted Tao Fu Yin on the shoulder, and asked Tao Fu Yin to go out with him on the grounds of questioning.

Gu Chuyu also stood up, walked up to Mei Xiaoren, and asked, "Ji Nanrou is looking for you again?" ”

Mei Xiaoren was helpless and asked him directly: "Do you still need to return the things?" ”

"No, you don't."

Gu Chuyu knew that she had to take into account Wei Guogong's favors, but also had to worry about Ji Nanrou knowing her secret, and it was difficult to refuse Ji Nanrou's request to let her pay it back, which had no effect.

Mei Xiaoren and Tao Fu Yin retired at the same time, but Tao Fu Yin disdained to go back with her, and the two left the Prime Minister's Mansion one after the other.

Since she came to Beijing, she has been running around until now, and she is also wandering around in the cold, suffering from other green-clothed officials who have not suffered. Chu Yu took this opportunity to give her half a month's vacation, probably because she wanted her to rest and rest.

Mei Xiaoren took a sedan chair back to the house, and when the sedan chair was far away, two people came out from behind the wall not far away.

The entourage was surprised: "Childe, isn't Lord Mei a staff member of Wei Guogong, how can he enter and leave the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

Wu Xian looked at the sedan chair in the distance, his expression was very flat, and he raised the corners of his mouth, "Let's follow all the way from Dongshi to here, since she entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, then it is not in vain for us to take this trip." ”

"But didn't Tao Mansion Yin also come out of the Prime Minister's Mansion? Mrs. Mei could explain that she had come here on business. ”

Wu Xian shook his head and said with a smile: "On duty? Just now he had a burden in his hand, and when he went in, the burden was gone, didn't there be a clue to this? "Childe is wise."

Wu Xian looked at him slightly, and said slowly: "I was already wondering, Mei Xiaoren was appreciated by scholars when he was in the academy, and why he threw himself into Wei Guogong in a blink of an eye, it seems that Wei Guogong is still in the dark by him, and he doesn't know his friendship with scholars at all." ”

Wu Xian felt that what he had seen and heard was of no use in his mind, and if he wanted to come in handy, he had to go to the Duke of Wei's mansion.

Since he returned to Beijing from the academy, he still hasn't got a half-official position, his father is just a waiter, how many people in the court are willing to sell his father's face?

But Wei Guogong is different, Wei Guogong is now lacking staff, and Wei Guogong used to be the secretary of the ministry, and he must have his own connections in the ministry, so it should not be difficult to help him.

In the past, he didn't know how to surrender to Lord Guogong, but now Mei Xiaoren gave him this opportunity, and the benefits of currying favor with Lord Guogong are not limited to the fact that he became an official in the court.

Wei Guogong has always been polite to the descendants of the Beijing official family, Wu Xian asked to see, and Wei Guogong did not turn him away.

In the hall, Wu Xian stepped forward to salute: "Meet Lord Guogong, come here rashly to disturb him, and I hope Lord Guogong will forgive me." ”

"Wu Xian's nephew is really a rare guest, come here at this time, is there anything wrong?"

Wu Xian said: "My lord, I met Master Mei in Dongshi today. ”

"Mei Fucheng patrols the streets every day......"

Wu Xian immediately interrupted Wei Guogong's words: "But he went to the Prime Minister's Mansion today, and he brought something. ”

Wei Guocheng wanted to drink tea, and when he heard Wu Xian's words, his hand holding the teacup paused in the air, and he said: "Meifu Cheng may have something to report to Xiangye, or he may have been summoned by Xiangye on business." “

"But I saw that it was the personal attendant of the Prime Minister who took him into the mansion, such a courtesy, I'm afraid that others wouldn't have it."

Wei Guogong looked at Wu Xian and asked directly: "Nephew Wu Xian, what is your intention in telling me this?" ”

"I was afraid that the adults would mistakenly trust others and mistakenly support the people of Xiangye, and they also planned for him and arranged him to enter the Shangjing Mansion, thinking that when the Tao Mansion Yin told the old man to return to his hometown, he would be able to sit in the Shangjing Mansion." Wu Xian arched his hand and said solemnly, "The painstaking efforts of the Lord Guogong are moving, and I can't bear to see the Lord being deceived by Mei Xiaoren and making wedding dresses for others by mistake." ”

"Mei Fucheng is the person I single-handedly pulled into Beijing, how can he have anything to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion, what you see today may just be a coincidence." Wei Guogong said lightly.

"My lord, Mei Fu Cheng once told your lord that he had met the scholar of Wei University as early as when he was a student at Jinshan Academy? He used to be a national soldier, but he lost his clothes on the eve of the award, but on the day of the award, he appeared again in the clothes of the first class. Wu Xian frowned slightly, and his tone was heavy, "Presumably, the adults should know where he can borrow this clothes from when looking at the entire Daning." ”

Wei Guogong didn't want to drink tea anymore, so he put down the tea cup that had been held for a long time, he heard that Mei Xiaoren had studied in the academy, but he didn't know that there was such a thing as borrowing clothes......

He had heard Wu Xian's words clearly, but Wu Xian's move was so sudden that it was hard for him to believe that Mei Xiaoren had deceived him and owed him the grace of promotion.

In order to verify, Wei Guogong asked his subordinates to send Wu Xian away, and then moved to the back garden, walked to a room, and knocked on the door.

Ji Nanrou opened the door and came out, owing: "Dad." ”

Wei Guogong stood under the corridor and asked, "Rou'er, dad remembers that you went back to the academy last year to see your master, and by the way, you also watched last year's graduation ceremony?" ”

Ji Nanrou nodded slightly.

"Whose clothes did Mei Fucheng wear at the ceremony?"

Ji Nanrou was stunned for a moment, and her eyes swept both sides uneasily.

How could she not see whose clothes it was, at that time she was curious about how the senior brother's clothes could be worn on a student, so she also asked Senior Brother Wei, but Senior Brother Wei refused to say, so she knocked on the side next to her master and asked what the relationship between Senior Brother and that student was......
