Chapter 090: The fight started
Changyingmu sat with her face for a long time, and finally waved her hand to let her retreat.
What can I do with the maid I chose?
She instructed Wu's mother: "Ming'er steam a few baskets of dim sum, and then bring some tea or something, you go to Xu's house." The box of incense was returned. ”
Xu Lan only gave her incense, which naturally had his intentions.
But she didn't think that she could change anything by going on this trip, in her opinion, it was just his futile struggle, she couldn't have a future with him, and the Xu family couldn't give in because of her.
Wu's mother has encountered a lot of things, and she is also calm, and she can rest assured that she will go. As for whether it is appropriate or not, since they are sure that there will be no intersection in the future, why bother looking ahead?
Mother Wu nodded deeply and said, "The slave must handle things well." ”
Xu Lan is a good person, he has helped them a lot in the past for such a long time, he may not have any malice in doing this, but he just wants Mrs. Xu to see the charm of Changying.
But if Changying really goes, it will be sent to the door to be seen, if Changying is interested, it is good to have this opportunity, and the Xu family's family is not low.
But the point is that she didn't mean it, so naturally she couldn't lower her figure.
Changying put the matter aside, and then spread out the paperwork on the table again.
The document was the roster of river officials that Huang Ji inquired about, and she summed up several suspicious ones, including Qian Yun.
She didn't know what Huo Rong thought about Qian Yun, and she didn't have a chance to chat with him all day long - in fact, if this person was really Qian Yun, things would not be so easy.
Behind Qian Yun is Liu Shuo, and Liu Shuo is closely following the governor Fan Xin, and it is not easy to take Qian Yun.
Even if it is handed over to the supervision of the imperial history, from the perspective of the current court situation, they will not be able to move their muscles.
Not to mention anything else, as far as the prince colluded with the Japanese invaders, the evidence is in front of him, and the emperor can't abolish him, let alone this matter?
But if they don't tear it down this hole, it will be even more difficult for them to compete for power and territory with Caoyun Division.
However, if it is really Qian Yun, is he too high-profile?
Not long after Xu Lan sat at Huo's house, he ate a cup of tea, said a few words of official business and left.
After dinner, Huo Rong looked at the tea and silk brought back by Tong Qi in the study.
"This Qian Yun is a family made by his wife, but unlike Cheng Xiao, this person is quite able to bend and stretch, and he is accommodating to his wife Liu in every way, I heard that not only are there no concubines in the house, but also every time he goes out and returns to the house, he has to bring some small gifts back.
"The Liu family loves silk and satin jewelry, and Qian Yun loves tea, so his subordinates temporarily took these from their own businesses in the city."
The Huo family's businesses are all over the country, not to mention that they are found in towns and cities everywhere, at least in places like Huzhou.
Huo Rong took it and looked at it a few times, and said, "Is there anyone on the boat tonight?" ”
"Yes." Tong Qi said: "Before, the sky was going to be dark, and my subordinates had already sent two people to sneak into the ship. ”
Huo Rong nodded: "Go and prepare, Ming'er will go to his boat to have a look." ”
Tong Qi hugged the tea and silk down with his jaw.
Huo Rong got up and walked out of the bead curtain, saw the loquat resting on the table, took two in his hand and looked at it, and suddenly asked left and right: "Who else did the Xu family give?" ”
The guard came up and said, "I just went to the Li Mansion of Tan Mansion, and there are still people who go to the other end of the alley, I don't know whether to go to the Su family or the Shen family." ”
Huo Rong thought for a moment and curled his lips: "Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Su came from Jinling together, how could the Xu family still send them to the Su family?" ”
The guard scratched his head.
He peeled off the loquat and ate half of it: "Go and inquire, what else did you give to the Shen family?" ”
……
The next morning, Wu's mother woke up Yingbi and the others early, set up rules, explained the taboos of the big and small, as well as the reward and punishment system, and then carried the basket to Xu's house.
Xu Lan was about to go out when he saw the basket.
He stood with it for a while, then picked up the untouched incense inside, looked at it twice, and asked, "What else did Mother Wu say?" ”
"No, I just said that I made two baskets of dim sum and sent them to my wife as soon as possible, and I also thanked my grandfather and wife for the gift."
Xu Lan sat on the railing, muttered for a while, and then rewarded the guards with the loquat and left.
When Changying arrived at the guardhouse, Su Xinrong and Xing Mu had already arrived, Xu Lan said that they wanted to discuss matters, and everyone went to his office.
"You don't have to keep an eye on the dockyard all the time, you have to arrange your own errand people, and make sure that there are people on duty at all times, and that nothing goes wrong. I'm going to be with the merchant ships these two days, and I won't necessarily be at the docks all the time. If there is anything you can ask for the assistance of General Huo and General Li, don't worry, just wait for me to come back. ”
Xu Lan's face was as usual, and Changying was naturally frank and open.
Su Xinrong said: "How many days are you going?" ”
"I can't say." Xu Lan said, "No more than three or five days, less than one or two days." ”
Su Xinrong nodded.
After a few words of daily business, he dispersed.
Changying was going to the dock to find Huo Rong, and was just about to be led by someone, when he suddenly rode from a distance, and dismounted not far from the door, he actually walked over directly, and it turned out to be Ma Yun, a subordinate of the Ya Si.
Changying thought that there was an urgent matter at the dock, but he said: "General, Wang Zhao of the Lifting Division was gambling in the town, and there was a conflict with people, and there was a fight, Huang Ji asked his subordinates to tell the general!" ”
Hearing that it was the person who lifted the division, Su Xinrong also stopped.
Ma Yun took a breath and said: "Didn't Huang Ji follow Wang Zhao yesterday, the dock started, and it didn't matter what happened to the lifting department, he was idle, so he went to the yamen to answer the mao, and then went to the town."
"It turns out that he still has a few gambling friends who often get together on weekdays, and it was still early today, so he made an appointment to come out for tea, and he didn't know what was going on just now, so he quarreled."
Changying only knew that Wang Zhao was a gentleman, but she didn't know that he was still gambling.
"Lead the way." She stepped down the stone steps.
Su Xinrong looked at it and followed.
The teahouse Ma Yun said is in the east of the town, which is still ten miles away from the city, but only a few miles away from the wharf, and it is also the only way to get to the wharf from Huzhou City.
Wang Zhao's family is in the city, and he actually made a group of gamblers in this town, which shows that he is not a little mixed in this place.
When Changying arrived at the place, he saw a lot of people in the teahouse from a distance, mixed with a few particularly loud quarrels.
When I looked closer, I saw that the two boxes had already been played, and several benches had fallen to the ground, one of which had a broken leg.
Wang Zhao covered his forehead and pointed at the person opposite and said ruthlessly: "You ungrateful person, have you forgotten that you salivated and begged me for money to treat your children's illness, and now you are chasing the wind and shadows to do it to me, and you will be careful to hit five thunders in the coming days!" ”
The man on the other side said, "You still dare to deny it, see that I don't break your legs!" ”
The two scolded and scolded, and fought again.
Huang Ji in the crowd saw Changying and walked over quickly.
Changying said: "What's the matter?" ”
Huang Jidao: "Wang Zhao hooked up with this man's wife. The previous three sentences were spoken, and the stuffing was revealed. ”
