Chapter 145: Fourth Master Shen
"Really? Master Zhang, that's what I think, but some people say that Chen Dianyi is the most powerful, no, the case of the Li family, the third richest man in Huaijin Mansion, will be handed over to him to handle. β
Zhang Yi gritted his teeth: "That's me letting him!" β
Wang Li hurriedly helped beat the side drum: "Yes, you don't understand Mr. Qian, we know the county, and we are obedient to Master Zhang, if Master Zhang says that Sun Dian's officials are not good, then he is not good." β
"Master Zhang, this time, you are careless, this case was given to Chen Dian, which is very inappropriate." Wen Jin said.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Yi was very unhappy, and his hand holding the chopsticks clenched tightly.
"You don't know, although the male owner of the Li family is gone, there are only old and weak women and children left in the family, but the family is not without strength, and it doesn't mean that the Lord Lu Canlu of Hucheng Qianfu Kuozhi County is still Li Xiucai's cousin, who is the newlywed husband of the eldest lady of the Li family, and is also the magistrate of Lin County, Central Plains Prefecture."
Zhang Yi's hands trembled, but he still held on: "So what? Far water does not quench the thirst of the near. β
"That's what I said, but don't look at Lord Lu Canlu is only the prefect of Zhongjiang Mansion, an official of the fifth grade, he brought down the Ran cabinet of the first rank last year."
Lu Can's name, Zhang Yi was still a little vague, and when he heard Ran Zhongjian, Zhang Yi's wine woke up half of it.
Wen Jin took the opportunity to add another brick: "Master Zhang, you said, is this Lord Lu teaming up with Lord Chen Ke Chen, or is it a coincidence?" β
Zhang Yicai didn't believe it was a coincidence, he hesitated for a moment, and asked Wen Jin: "Do you know that Lord Lu and the Li family, relatives, are they close?" β
"I don't know if it's close or not, I only know that the eldest aunt of the Li family, who was the master of Lord Lu last year, just because he single-handedly went to recruit a group of bandits, and made a meritorious contribution to the emperor's exceptional promotion to the magistrate."
"And this?" Zhang Yi almost drooled with envy, they were all masters, why didn't he have such a good life?
Wen Jin was afraid of going off topic, so he hurriedly added: "Master Zhang, you said, if something happens to the Li family, will Lord Lu lend a hand?" β
"Definitely, not to mention that the Li family and he are cousins, even for the sake of the former subordinate of the magistrate of Lin County, he will not give up." Wang Shuban hurriedly helped.
Wen Jin continued: "Well, I also think so, I heard that the hillside where Li Xiucai was buried had no owner before, and he bought it directly from the government. β
"That's the reason!" Wang Li nodded repeatedly.
Zhang Yi weighed it for a long time, and felt that he had to say this to his master quickly, and he suggested that the case be given to Chen Dian, because this guy was black enough and ruthless enough, and he got money from the Li family, and everyone had a share, but if the money was destined to be taken and not spent, he still didn't want it.
"Come on, Master Zhang, drink!"
"I don't drink anymore." Master Zhang still has to rely on the big tree of Zhixian, but he can't let him fall, now, there is still room for redemption, after tomorrow, it will be troublesome.
"Eat the vegetables, eat the vegetables!" Wen Jin made a gesture, and Xiao Er served chicken noodle soup to a few people.
Zhang Yi didn't say a word, and left in a hurry after eating, Wang Li said to Wen Jin: "Little brother is a good method, a few hundred taels of silver may not be able to settle the matter, you actually have a few taels of silver for a table of dishes, and it's over." "It's going to be a benefit.
"Wang Shuban, the matter is done, and it will not be a loss of benefits for you and Master Zhang." When employing people, we naturally have to give some hope.
Wang Li was satisfied, he had already taken ten taels of silver, and if there were another ten taels later, it would be complete.
Chen Dian's appetite is very big, even if they swindle the money, they don't have his share, ten taels, it's better than watching others take a few hundred taels and not have a penny of their own.
Seeing Wang Li away, Wen Jin's heart was half relieved. Next, she can only pray that the magistrate of Huaijin Prefecture is not particularly greedy, if she asks for money and does not want her life, her threat really can't solve the problem.
"Papapapa" someone applauded softly.
At this time, the inn was a time when business was light, there were not many guests in the dining hall just now, and at this time there was only one table left, when, there was still such a customer sitting in the dark corner, I saw him behind his hands, and slowly paced over: "This little brother is a good method, if Lord Lu Can knew that you pulled his tiger skin to make trouble, would he be angry?" β
"No!" Wen Jin was very confident, "If Lord Lu is in Huaijin Mansion again, he will definitely come to this trip in person." β
"Oh? However, Master Lu must not like to hear it, you said that he was colluding with Lord Chen Ke Chen. "This person is really not to be underestimated, and he is clear about the affairs of the imperial court.
"Did I say that?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Good means, good means, presumably the name Jin Cheng is fake." β
"Then you say yes?" Wen Jin put down his words and planned to leave, this person was too dangerous.
"Come and sit, believe it or not, what you did today, I said it can be done, and I said that it can't be done, and if it can't be done?"
Wen Jin's heart tightened again, and he obediently stopped: "This uncle has a big name? The little self-thought didn't mess with you. β
"Mess with me or not, depending on your attitude at this time, come and do it."
Wen Jin had no choice but to walk across from the man and sit down.
"Let me guess who you are."
As soon as she heard this, Wen Jin's hair exploded, who would know her here? Who is going to have trouble with her?
"Don't be nervous, little girl of the Qian family, you're playing bigger and bigger."
Wen Jin felt that the stool suddenly collapsed, and she fell down in a whirlwind, why is this ground so far away, and it always can't reach the bottom?
"Childe!" Pomegranate saw that the master's body shook for a moment, and hurriedly reached out to support it, Wen Jin relieved herself, she was really scared when her identity was suddenly revealed just now, Wen Jin is not so timid, the key is that she has never seen the other party at all.
"Who are you?"
"I guessed you, you can try to guess me."
Wen Jin frowned, this person said a mouthful of Beijing films, with a slight accent of Huaijin Mansion, his appearance, he is really good, he is a beautiful uncle.
The reason why I say this is because this person seems to be almost thirty years old, his eyes are not very big, but he is very dark and bright, he looks at you quietly, and seems to be able to see what you are thinking......
Wen Jin's mind suddenly lit up, and he stood up and saluted respectfully: "Villain Qian Wenjin, I've seen Master Shen Si!" β
"Hahaha, am I that old?" He suddenly laughed so loudly that Pomegranate was startled.
"The so-called elders in the house, the master is just a title, the four masters and the brothers have already made people call the master, you can't still call the young master!"
"Hahaha!" Shen Mingxi couldn't help but smile again, he had just come back from the field, walked to the county seat, it was getting late, and he had to find an inn to stay for one night, but he saw Wang Li sneakily hanging at the door, so he followed and walked in, there were still a few people eating here at that time, and it was not noticeable, he picked a dark corner and sat down, asked for wine and food, while eating and drinking, while eavesdropping, at first it was noisy, but later, it was clear to hear.
Don't look at people, Shen Mingxi quickly decided who this woman dressed as a man and came out for the Li family, and his nephew would be emotional about a country woman, he Shen Mingxi, as the person who entrusted his sister to Gu, naturally wanted to investigate Qian Wenjin clearly, in the past two years, he went to southern Xinjiang twice, one is to complete the master's entrustment, and the other is also for this matter.
Unexpectedly, Qian Wenjin was smarter than he imagined, and he could solve the troubles of the Li family without bloodshed, this wit, few men walking outside can do it, even Qian Wenhan, who is respected by his nephew, a promising young man at the age of eighteen, may not be able to do so beautifully.
"Sure enough, it's a good match for my nephew." Shen Mingxi muttered in his heart, his mood was also very high, he couldn't help but tease Wen Jin, and when he saw the little girl's discoloration, his heart was very happy-mmmm, normal reaction, if he was not afraid at all, he simply suspected that this girl was a spy sent by Southern Xinjiang.
"Fourth Master Shen, when you come to the county seat, you won't come to sabotage it, right?" Wen Jin couldn't tell what the reason was, she felt that this Shen Mingxi was very easy to get along with, although she teased her once, but it gave people a feeling of warmth, brightness, and peace of mind, so that she unconsciously let go of his heart.
Hearing Wen Jin's slightly coquettish words, Shen Mingxi felt very comfortable in his heart, and he liked to cover his own people.
"You're still afraid."
"Of course, I'm most afraid that your Shen family will reach out."
"Don't worry, Shen Ping doesn't have the courage yet."
"Not necessarily."
"Well, well, caution should be, that kid is getting more and more unsuccessful, he even eats in the bowl and looks at the pot, dares to do bad things, and when I go home, I will teach him a good lesson."
Wen Jin smiled: "This is what it looks like to be an uncle." β
"I don't like being an uncle."
Wen Jin raised his eyes strangely.
"I like to be an uncle."
Wen Jin was embarrassed, only blamed Qian Jun for being too flamboyant, and Shen Mingxi cared so much about his nephew, he must have seen the clues.
"I'll be in Beijing in a few days, do you want to come with me?" Shen Mingxi really wanted to see what kind of expression his nephew had when he saw Wen Jin following him, he was not much older than Qian Jun, and he always liked to tease his little nephew.
Wen Jin shook his head, mixing in this society, or following the rules of this society, it is too shocking and will bring trouble to himself.
"You dare to pretend to be a man, what else don't you dare?" Shen Mingxi couldn't help but want to tease Wen Jin, this little girl was too angry with him, smart and bold, wise and brave.
"I can't help it, since I was sensible, I was forced by my mother to do so, and now, I'm used to it, it's hard to change."
"Have you ever thought that she is not your mother?" Shen Mingxi looked over inquiringly.
Wen Jin was stunned for a moment and frowned: "This is a bit unbelievable, right?" How do I get to her? There's no reason to hide it from so many people. β
"Huh!" Before it was time to uncover the pot, Shen Mingxi snorted.
Saying goodbye to Shen Mingxi, Wen Jin came to her house on the second floor, after the pomegranate waited for washing, she lay down, over the years, walking from the east to the west, she had long developed the habit of falling asleep, rarely tossing and turning like today, and it was difficult to sleep.
What is the person who wrote the letter and said he missed her? Since the war in Western Xinjiang is being victorious, why hasn't it ended?
In fact, Qian Jun at this moment has arrived in the capital, he has a beard on his face, an old felt hat on his head, and lives in a small courtyard near the east city gate.
Five thousand people and horses, more than three thousand have come, no stalking, no suspicion, he has successfully arranged the people, near the east gate and the west city gate, the most lived, there are fewer Hongyuan dart bureaus in the city, and there are some who live outside the city.
He has already let people pass the news of the prince's defeat and injury and return to Beijing to recuperate into the palace, and the opponent will definitely find a way to verify whether the news is accurate, just waiting for his second fake news to enter, so that they can believe that the prince's life is dying, and those people will believe that after they believe it, they will definitely make the illusion of anxious greeting on the surface, and will naturally wait patiently for the emperor's big trip, and then pretend to cry for the prince, and then support Liu Guifei's son Yiwang to ascend the throne.
Although the emperor was confused and did a lot of wrong things, Qian Jun didn't want those people to hurt him, when he was young, the emperor's uncle was very fond of him, so that the slut didn't dare to hurt his life, and used the strategy of raising him instead.
There is a fate, so he Qian Jun can fight back today.
There are still a lot of ministers in the court who support the prince, after all, the prince represents orthodoxy, represents the righteousness, and in the country where Confucianism is the way, the most important thing is to respect the inferior and the righteous.
It turns out that the emperor's will to let the prince return to Beijing has been going down for three months, but the front line in Western Xinjiang has not seen the messenger at all.
When the national teacher Liu Linshen saw the news that the prince was injured and his life was dying, his first reaction was that the prince pretended to take this opportunity to return to Beijing and prepare to ascend the throne. He asked his people to probe again, and got accurate information that the prince had not yet arrived in Pinewood, and it seemed that his life was indeed short.
"Is this providential?" Liu Linshen turned out to be the chief soldier of Southern Xinjiang, his daughter was favored when he entered the palace and became a concubine, and he was also named a national teacher by the emperor, and entered the capital, and the military power of Southern Xinjiang was left to his son to be in charge.
Different identities, different thoughts, different positions, and different visions, in southern Xinjiang, Liu Lin tried his best to climb up, and when he arrived in the capital, his thoughts immediately changed. The daughter is particularly competitive, in one fell swoop, and the queen is depressed, three days of two heads of illness, and then simply drugged, almost lost her life, the queen since then, closed the palace door, fasting and chanting Buddha, ignoring foreign affairs, his daughter Liu Guifei, in charge of the emperor's inner palace six courtyards, although not the queen, but exercised the right of the mother to the world, and the grandson of the king of wings, is even more clever and clever, deeply liked by the emperor, six years old was crowned king, at the age of twelve was allowed to open a government to build a mansion, under the operation of Liu Linshen, the power is huge.
Since God treats him so well, Liu Linshen's heart is getting bigger and bigger, at the beginning, he just wanted his grandson to ascend to the supreme throne, and now, he really wants to try what it's like to sit on his own, although this idea is not reliable, but he plans in many ways, and feels that his son may be able to, and his grandson will definitely be able to.
Thinking of this world, one day he will be surnamed Liu, and Liu Linshen's heart is so beautiful that it can bloom.
But this premise is that the prince must die, and he has sent competent men to intercept it along the way.
Liu Linshen thought about the deployment of the capital again, what if the few stinky and hard bachelors in the cabinet resolutely opposed the Yiwang? You must know that the emperor has seven sons, the Wing King ranks fifth, in addition to the prince, there is also a Fu King, who has a gentle personality, is knowledgeable, and is also a very popular candidate for the throne of the ministers. Everyone has shortcomings, King Fu is good at everything, but he likes music and poetry too much, and when the song is moving, King Fu will fall down and can't get up.
King Yi also has an opponent, the fourth prince, Qian Mintong, whose mother is still the second only concubine in the palace to Concubine Qiao Shu, but for some reason, the emperor only gave him the title of the king of the county, and his competitiveness was discounted, Liu Linshen was not worried.
If there is no prince to compare, will those ministers forgive King Fu? After all, who doesn't have a young age?
Hmph, at a critical time, the literati are all decorations, or can these generals come in handy, Liu Lin gritted his teeth and studied the information in his hand.
Well, Zhang Fengrui, the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, is his own person, but Liang Jiangguo, the commander of the Nine Gates, is only loyal to the prince, and let him accompany the master on the road in a few days.
It's a pity that the recent president of the Ouchi guard led Xiao Xianlai, but his temperament is neither yin nor yang, no one can figure out who he is loyal to, in Xiao Xianlai's words, he is only loyal to the emperor, that is to say, no matter who ascends the throne, he will follow, it seems that this guy, but the first big slippery head, sit firmly, neither will make a contribution to the establishment, nor will he be killed because he stands on the wrong team.
Liu Linshen put Xiao Xianlai aside, feeling that there was nothing to worry about, who would be afraid of a wall grass? But the inner guards must not be put aside, Xiao Xianlai's subordinates, there is a Cheng Guiqin, who is the big guard of the Qianqing Palace, if this person can help, everything will be fine.
Liu Linshen has already invested a lot of money in Cheng Guiqin, and now it is time for him to return the favor.
At the same time, Qian Jun was anxiously waiting for the arrival of the prince, it stands to reason that he should have arrived in Beijing in the past two days, but why can't the people who inquired find a trace of news?
Only when the prince comes back, can he summon Liang Jiangguo and Xiao Xianlai, as for how to deal with Zhang Fengrui, the prince has to take the idea, Qian Jun has already been in contact with Zhang Fengrui's deputy Yao Suiwang, originally, the position of the commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is his, only because Zhang Fengrui suddenly took the line of the National Teacher's Mansion, Yao Suiwang was squeezed down, in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, Yao Suiwang's appeal is still much greater than Zhang Fengrui.
"Ahemβ"
As soon as Qian Jun heard it, he knew that Shi Zhenzong was being funny, and he raised his head and called in.
"Here's the news, Xiaolong is preparing to set up clouds." Qian Jun suddenly raised his head, the prince was too ghostly, and he even hid himself.
...
