Chapter 33: Conspiracy
Zhao Chongwen was like an angry lion, all the slaves did not dare to come forward, only his wife Liu saw that his man had such a big temper, and came forward to comfort him with a cup of tea, and asked:
"The old man is angry, why do you have such a big temper, how can it be good if you are angry and your body is broken."
Seeing that the person who came was his wife, Liu, he restrained a little anger, although this Zhao Chongwen was submissive, he was also afraid of the inside, who made this Liu's maiden family more powerful than Zhao Chongwen.
Zhao Chongwen eased his expression and said angrily:
"Humph! I don't know where a wild girl came out of the Shizi Mansion, and she actually cut off a financial route in the mansion, how can she swallow this breath. ”
When Liu heard that it was a girl who was annoyed by the old man, he couldn't help but ask curiously:
"Oh! Who is this wild girl, who is sacred, she has such ability, and can actually cut off the old man's wealth, is it the handiwork of the prince's mansion? I don't know which way to cut off the master's wealth. ”
Zhao Chongwen didn't think about whether it was intentional by the Shizi Mansion, but his relationship with Wan Zilou was extremely hidden, and it was impossible for the Shizi Mansion to know.
Besides, all the passing in the afternoon was on the spot, and if the Shizi Mansion wanted to close Wanzi Building, there was no need for that girl to come forward, one sentence was enough, so why bother.
Even if the Shizifu knows its relationship with Wan Zilou, now that the situation is tense, and all major forces are vying to attract talents, although he is the bow of Yuegang City, although he can't move to the stage, but his wife's family is also the object of the princes' scramble, and there is no need for the Shizifu to offend himself at this time for a small Qinglou.
Zhao Chongwen overturned Liu's speculation and said:
"This matter should have nothing to do with the Shizi Mansion, nor was it instructed by the Shizi Mansion, and I don't know where that woman is sacred, so she dismissed the women of Wanzilou and Qinglou, and also wanted to close Wanzilou."
Zhao Chongwen's tone was a little smoother, and he told the Liu family what happened in Wanzi Building in the afternoon.
After listening to Zhao Chongwen's narration, Liu Shi was not in a hurry, but smiled slightly and said:
"Listen to the master, this matter is not a foregone conclusion, at least we still have half a month to maneuver, as long as the girl can't provide those women with jobs, there is still room for things to turn around."
This Liu family is a smart person, listening to Zhao Chongwen's words, he immediately said what was at stake.
This Zhao Chongwen can have today, all thanks to the credit of the Liu family, the Liu family is a famous family in Kyoto, and the Liu family itself is smart and vicious, Zhao Chongwen has come to this day step by step.
When Zhao Chongwen heard what Liu said, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked with interest:
"Oh! Mrs. Fei has a plan. ”
This Liu's phoenix eyes turned, and whispered a few words in Zhao Chongwen's ear, and immediately closed Zhao Chongwen's mouth, and praised directly: "Wonderful plan, wonderful plan, Mrs. is really the virtuous helper of this mansion, with Mrs. here, this mansion is worry-free!" ”
When Liu saw Zhao Chongwen turn his worries into joy, he was also overjoyed, but he replied hypocritically:
"The concubine's shallow suggestion, how can the lord be far-sighted, but just now the lord was in a hurry and didn't clear his mind, I believe the lord also has a plan."
The Liu family gave him enough face in front of Zhao Chongwen, although his mother's family was more powerful than Zhao Chongwen, but the Liu family never stepped on Zhao Chongwen because of his mother's power, but held him, making Zhao Chongwen very face-saving.
In the eyes of outsiders, Zhao Chongwen is very afraid of inside, but only Zhao Chongwen himself knows that he actually cherishes his wife.
Zhao Chongwen heard Liu's slap, his mood naturally improved, and his originally happy expression suddenly frowned again and said:
"However, that girl tore up all the deeds of sale of those women in Qinglou, even if this method works, those girls can leave in a dignified manner, even if Wan Zilou falls into my hands again, I have to spend thousands of taels of silver to buy people again, it seems a little uneconomical."
Liu Shi disagreed and said:
"The lord is confused, although the deed of sale is damaged, according to the laws of my Song Dynasty, the deed of sale is accidentally damaged, as long as the owner applies to the government, reports the detailed information, and the government office issues a document, the deed of sale also works, the lord can draw up a new one, the lord is the government and has this right. If there is disobedience, coercion and temptation, which Qinglou woman dares to oppose the master. ”
The Liu family was thoughtful, and his words wanted to waste everything Shu Yu had done.
Zhao Chongwen laughed after hearing this, and sincerely admired Liu's and said:
"Madame is reasonable, and the mansion will send the old bustard over to discuss this matter."
Zhao Chongwen nodded with satisfaction, becoming more and more satisfied with this lady, she was simply his own think tank.
When Liu heard that Zhao Chongwen was looking for the bustard, he confessed again:
"Adults are slow, the concubine still has something to explain."
After speaking, he whispered in Zhao Chongwen's ear before leaving.
At this time, Zhao Chongwen's expression was similar to that of the two people who had just smashed the cup, full of excitement, and hurriedly instructed the housekeeper in the house to invite the old bustard of Wanzilou to come over to discuss the matter.
After a while, the old bustard was brought over by Zhao Chongwen's housekeeper, and as soon as the old bustard saw Zhao Chongwen when he entered the door, he knelt down at Zhao Chongwen's feet, crying and crying:
"Lord Zhao, you have to be the master of the slave family! I will help the slave family get justice! ”
Zhao Chongwen knew this bustard very well, and he didn't help her when he knelt on the ground, but said lightly:
"Okay, okay, let Su's mother come over at this time, it's for Su's mother's business, seeing that Su's mother is wronged, how can this mansion not care, and call you over, just for the sake of Wanzilou's affairs, you get up and talk first!"
When the old bustard heard Zhao Chongwen say this, he looked overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Lord Zhao, the slave family knows that Lord Zhao will not ignore the slave family." ”
When the old bustard heard that Zhao Chongwen was looking for him, he wanted to solve his own affairs, and immediately smiled, changed people, and shouted grievances with pear blossoms and rain just now, which will have no tears on his face, this is crying when he says he is crying, and the performance of laughing and laughing is difficult even for the current actress.
Zhao Chongwen glanced at the old bustard, and continued to say lightly:
"However, I helped you solve this matter this time, and this mansion is also conditional."
Zhao Chongwen finally showed his fox tail, which was the purpose of him asking the boss to come over.
"My lord, as long as I can go back to the Qinglou, whatever conditions my lord has, the slave family will agree."
The old bustard knew that Zhao Chongwen could take it back to the Qinglou, and he didn't listen to Zhao Chongwen's conditions first, so he agreed directly.
Zhao Chongwen heard that the bustard didn't know the conditions yet, so he agreed first, and he was not in a hurry, and said shamelessly:
"Very good, after the matter is resolved at this time, eighty percent of Wan Zilou's income will belong to me in the future, and you will take twenty percent."
After hearing Zhao Chongwen's conditions clearly, the old bustard instantly became anxious and said:
"My lord, how can this work, Wan Zilou is a slave family who has worked hard to run it, you take thirty percent of the income, it's enough, why do you have to take eighty percent, don't you want the slave family's life?"
