Chapter 667: Rumors Stop at the Wise
At this time, Miss Han was standing at the gate of Dali Temple, negotiating with the guards.
A young lady is here, whether it is for the sake of Han Ying, a university scholar, or for other reasons, Tang Geng should let him in.
But recently, because of the rumors with the queen's mother, there has been a ruckus in the capital, and many people who think they have a chivalrous heart even think that he deliberately spread it to slander Zhuang Siyan's clear voice, so they came to the door one by one to find him a theory.
Tang Geng, who was originally on an errand like Qing Shui, was almost driven crazy by this matter, and even the door of Dali Temple was closed, unless there was a case to be tried, otherwise he would not open the door when others beat the drum, and he would instruct that person to go to Jingzhao Mansion Yin.
Miss Han reported her identity, but the guards didn't dare to offend, and they didn't want to expose their own adults, so they had to politely say that Tang Geng was not there and asked her to come back another day.
Han Jiao believes this, the court officials are the most cunning, like her father, once he doesn't want to see anyone, either he is sick or goes out, in short, he will never be there where that person comes.
Han Jiao has seen a lot since she was a child, so she naturally came up with a countermeasure: "Okay, you said that Lord Tang is not there, then I will wait at the door, and my father will come back from the palace in a while, and let him come and wait with me, just wait for you Lord Tang to come back." ”
The corner of the guard's eye twitched.
Han Ying's official position is higher than Tang Geng's, one product for each family, and three products for his family, although there is usually no positive contact, but everyone is an official in the capital, and no one can say whether they will find someone else's door in the future.
So the guard quietly returned to the inner courtyard and reported to Tang Geng: "My lord, I think this Miss Han, we can't afford to offend, why don't we meet her?" ”
Tang Geng shook his hand: "What is there to offend, she is just a young lady who entered the Han family, and she has no right to do anything to me, even if it is his father, he has the right to do anything to me, does he dare?" This official is also the emperor's personal Dali Siqing, are you still afraid of him? ”
The guard stood behind him, silently giving him a roll of the eye.
That being said, do you know who you're having an affair with right now? After this incident, do you think the emperor will still protect you?
Maybe someone will fall into the well now, and want to drive you out of the capital, the small one is still a little self-aware, think of a way out in advance!
The guard sighed behind his door, Tang Geng didn't understand it in his heart.
Will he be unaware of the truth that even a gatekeeper can understand?
After thinking about it, he finally had to bite the bullet and say, "Let her come in and take her to the front flower hall." ”
The guards hurried to the door.
The eldest lady of the Han family was also officially invited into the door of Dali Temple, entered Tang Geng's flower hall, and was entertained with good tea and water.
Tang Geng came out of the back hall after almost a pillar of incense, and as soon as he met, he took the preemptive action, raised his sleeves to cover his face and said: "Miss Han, Dali Temple is a place of serious crimes, and Tang Geng is also a person of rumors, why are you here, aren't you afraid of being slandered by rumors?" ”
This is clearly and clearly, and explains to Miss Han that he is a place of right and wrong, although others are very upright, but the person who comes is likely to be misunderstood by others, so you Miss Han is here, if someone spreads something again, then you can't blame me!
With such an obvious warning, Han Jiao could naturally hear it, but she was impressed by Tang Geng.
Listening to this tone, it doesn't look like a disciple, and the rumors about his feelings and the queen's mother are really nonsense outside?
But there is no wind in the air, and flies don't stare at seamless eggs, since others say so, then they have at least had contact with each other, right?
Thinking about it like this, she was also generous, naturally sat on the chair, looked at Tang Geng, who was covering his face with his sleeves, and said, "Lord Tang, I just came to ask you."
Words, are those words coming out there true? ”
Tang Geng sneered in his heart, but his mouth replied sincerely: "Naturally, it is false, if this thing is true, does Miss Han think that Tang is still alive in the capital?" ”
Each sentence is a textbook-like answer.
This said to Han Jiao again: "If there is something to do with the emperor's wife, then there are ten of them who are not enough for him to die, and Ling Tiancheng is not a vegetarian." ”
Not only is he not a vegetarian, Ling Tiancheng's vinegar strength is also well-known throughout the country, and everyone in the capital knows it.
It stands to reason that when it comes to this, Han Demon doesn't have anything to ask.
She was impulsive and came to someone to ask her about the crime, but she was simply replied in two sentences, and it was methodical, even if no evidence was presented, it could not be overturned at all.
However, she saw that Tang Geng always blocked her face, and refused to meet her like a woman, but became curious.
got up and walked two small steps towards Tang Geng and asked, "Why did Lord Tang cover his face with his sleeves?" ”
Tang Geng didn't retreat, but his voice was serious: "Miss Han is the daughter of a scholar of Han University, and she has a reputation in the boudoir, but Tang is now in the rumors, if you meet Miss Han without taboo, it will inevitably be seen by someone with a heart, and other words will be heard, so it is better not to see it." ”
Hearing this, Han Jiao glanced out.
Isn't it, in the entire flower hall, the doors and windows are all wide open, and the cool autumn breeze blows in along the windows, with a hint of autumn.
Also with the eyes of others, there are guards from Dali Temple standing at the window and door, as long as they turn their heads to one side, they can see the actions of the two people inside.
This Lord Tang is very cautious!
The matter is clear, it is indeed the same as before, it is someone else's nonsense, but Miss Han doesn't understand.
Since Tang Geng knew that it was nonsense, and it was a rumor that directly ruined him and the queen's mother, why didn't he prove his innocence?
Han Jiao is a straightforward person, and when she thought of it, she asked it out of her mouth.
Tang Geng Zhengse said: "The rumors stop at the wise, if others want to say, just let them say, I have my own innocence, if I am in a hurry to go out to explain at this time, it will be like there is something really in general, and the more the description is blackened." ”
He paused for a moment, and then said: "Tang thank Miss Han for her kindness, if there is nothing else, let's go back earlier, now Dali Temple is a place of right and wrong." ”
There was nothing to ask, Han Jiao also came out and left.
But the news spread quickly, and even Zhuang Siyan in the palace knew about it.
How clever she is, she immediately seized the opportunity to release her own people and spread another version.
Tang Geng and Zhuang Siyan were in love, but Han Jiao, the daughter of Han University, also admired Tang Geng, and went to Dali Temple to prove the truth.
Although Tang Geng had Zhuang Siyan's support, he didn't want to have a dispute with the Han family, so he lied, saying that he had nothing to do with the queen's mother.
As soon as the matter was passed on, all kinds of dark condiments were mixed in.
But in a day or two, the plot of this love triangle was all over the capital, which was almost enough to write several romance materials.
And Zhuang Siyan was busy walking outside the rumors, and at the same time, he was also busy taking the silver out of the silver treasury, and still sent it to Dali Temple.
Tang Geng is tired to death now, he doesn't want to say anything, and he has basically seen the results of his coolness.
Anyway, this queen has always been bent on going her own way, and when it comes to this point, he can't persuade her to come back, except to cooperate with her to the end, there is no way out.
The Han family, who was involved in the rumors, was furious.
Tang Geng and Zhuang Siyan passed on, they couldn't care, but Han Jiao
It is the pearl of their Han family, and it is still in the boudoir, so won't their reputation be bad in the future? How will you get married after that?
Although the Han family is reluctant to marry their daughter, they don't want to marry, and they don't want others, so there is a difference.
The four sons of the Han family even organized a group to make trouble with Tang Geng.
The whole Dali Temple, no one has ever been so lively, like the stage, there are people coming to find trouble every day, you sing, I will take the stage again.
Tang Geng can hide, but he can't hide, so he insists that he hasn't done anything, he doesn't know anything, he is an honest man.
Anyway, there is still the identity of the court official, and no one dares to really treat him, at most he will refer to him in the court a few more copies.
Ling Tiancheng received such a fold every day, and his face turned blue.
In front of the ministers, although he didn't say anything, when he returned to the harem, he really regretted it.
I shouldn't have left this matter to that girl to do in the first place, look at what happened here, even if the matter of the silver treasury was dealt with in the end, how could the reputation of their group of people be restored?
If you are not careful, it will become a stain for a lifetime, and you can't wash it off.
In the whole incident, only Zhuang Siyan treated it indifferently, as if he was nothing, what should he do.
As calm as she is, there is another group of people.
He who does his hands and feet on top of the official silver.
People who do bad things like nothing more than to make trouble, because only when they make trouble, they can take advantage of the fire to rob, and only when they make trouble, people can't distinguish between truth and falsehood, and they just cover up their behavior.
Zhuang Siyan first quarreled outside and took the key to the silver vault, and now she is arguing that she will take out the official silver and send it to Dali Temple.
Not to mention the news they inquired about, there is indeed such a thing, even if there is not, with this rumor, they can make this matter true.
They are also pondering, how to fill in the past holes, and how to take out a smile again.
Man's greed is a bottomless pit.
If you have never seen silver and have been poor, you will really be limited by poverty and your imagination will be satisfied.
But working in the treasury, he had to see so much silver every day, ingots, boxes and boxes passing in front of his eyes, and he just touched and counted them, and he had to send them somewhere else.
At the end of the month, it was just a little bit of money, and the gap and imbalance in my heart slowly rose more and more.
He would think, take a little bit back, anyway, there are so many, take a little out, no one will find out, as long as the accounts are done a little better, the people above can't find it, then there is nothing.
There are too many good things in the capital, such as food, good houses and courtyards, which ones can't be obtained with silver?
Even if it is not for the moment, he is an official in the court, and it is unpredictable when something will happen.
If you don't do anything, you won't be able to earn much money in your life if you continue to do it in this way.
And with the movement of his fingers here, it will top his income for several years.
It's better to take a little, take enough, and find an opportunity to resign, and from then on, find a good place to live a free life.
But as soon as his hand is extended, the target will increase.
At first, he may only want to take a hundred taels, but if he holds it, the one hundred taels will not satisfy his wishes, and it will slowly rise to one thousand taels.
Then, as time goes by, as he becomes more and more comfortable, but the people outside don't even notice any of them, he will become more and more bold, more and more greedy, and finally out of control.
