Chapter 361: Lack of Concubine and Conspiracy
Don't say you don't know, but be shocked when you say it.
Hearing this, Pang Qian put away his contempt and re-examined the strange duo of old and young sent by the Xingwang Mansion in front of him.
He said in his heart, no wonder Xingwangfu will send these two people to come, it turns out that they can really be alone, there are rumors that this Confucian is a world-famous talent in Jiangnan, but I don't know which one?
Zhu Hao continued to smile and asked, "This Pang Changshi, you haven't said it yet, do you want to continue talking...... If you feel that what you say is inappropriate, it is better to let us Xingwangfu open conditions. β
Zhu Hao's words made Pang Qian shift his gaze.
This kid......
I really like to find trouble for myself!
You don't know that I'm the chief of the palace of the court, right? Talking so rudely?
Don't say that you don't have a fame yet, even if you have fame, you should be polite when you see me...... But then again, each is his own master, and there seems to be nothing wrong with him talking like this.
Tang Yin said: "Be cautious in your words and deeds. β
It can be regarded as a reminder to Zhu Hao, you kid don't be too public, the people in Xiangwangfu in front of you are not as serious as the people in Xingwangfu, they will listen to you a child beeping blindly there, and people didn't leave for the sake of Xingwangfu's face, so you went to Xiangyang Mansion to try.
Zhu Hao said: "If Pang Changshi doesn't say it, then I'll just say it." Lu Dianzhan, now we have six guards and four tenants who have been seized by the Xiangwang Mansion, right? β
Lu Song nodded: "The news I got so far is like this. β
"Okay, Xiangwangfu will send ten people over as hostages, so it's fair!" Zhu Hao unceremoniously put forward the conditions for the revival of the palace.
"You!"
Without waiting for Pang Qian to say anything, the boy next to him and the head of the guards who were the door gods at the door were angry, and they almost came up to kill Zhu Hao.
But Lu Song is not a vegetarian either, he pulled out the saber on his waist with a "swish", and then there was a sound of dense boots stomping on the ground downstairs, and dozens of guards from Xingwangfu rushed into the post house.
The two sides are really saber-rattling this time.
"Hehehehe...... There is no need to be nervous, it is just that someone has made a condition to bargain. After Pang Qian finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Hao with a mocking look, as if to say, you kid doesn't understand anything, and you dare to speak, you really don't know whether to live or die!
But why did these guards of the Xingwang Mansion really take his words seriously?
Could it be that what he said was actually what the people in the palace thought, and he just said it through the mouth of this kid, deliberately embarrassing me as the representative of the Xiangwang Mansion?
Zhu Hao's expression was serious: "Yes, it's time to bargain, but before bargaining, you still have to send these ten people over." β
The head of the guards of the Xiangwang Mansion at the door finally couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and said, "I see that you don't know whether you live or die, believe it or not......"
"Your Excellency, be cautious in your words and deeds, this is my land of peace, it's best not to make a mistake here, otherwise none of you will be able to get out of this inn!"
Lu Song issued a warning.
Tang Yin saw that the atmosphere of the negotiation was all disturbed, and he secretly regretted letting Zhu Hao come out, thinking that he had reminded you that the kid was cautious in his words and deeds, why did he still talk so little? When you say that, doesn't it mean that the two sides don't need to talk?
Just when Tang Yin wanted to say something to ease the atmosphere, Zhu Hao suddenly asked: "Mr. Lu, let me ask you, before we came, the meaning of the Xingwang Mansion was to send troops out of the city and snatch back the lost fields. β
It's a presumptuous question, but it gets to the point.
Tang Yin nodded: "Yes." β
Pang Qian's face was very ugly.
Zhu Hao turned to look at Pang Qian and said, "Pang Changshi, you have also heard, in fact, today's negotiation is related to the relationship between the two royal mansions in the next few years or even decades...... If it doesn't make a good scene, it will form a feud and go to a place where water and fire are incompatible...... It seems that no one wants to see this happen, right? β
Pang Qian was suddenly not as confident as before.
Zhu Hao told him unmistakably that if the talks could not be reached, the two sides would go to war, which was a solemn warning, not like a lie.
Then tell him that no matter who wins or loses in this battle, the two sides will become feuds, which is nothing for Xingwangfu, but for Xiangwangfu...... In case there is a real dragon in the future Xingwang Mansion, then the Xiangwang Mansion will be used as a gun by the court and the Chinese people today, and the future emperor will definitely be unlucky.
Zhu Hao said: "Xiangwangfu chose to settle the matter last year, why did he suddenly tear his face this year, Pang Changshi didn't say it, Xingwangfu also knew it, in fact, Xingwangfu didn't want to make the contradiction between the two families so deep, it was best to take a step back...... Of course, this is not the case on the surface, and the two sides still have to maintain an appropriate level of tension. β
Pang Qian frowned: "What do you mean by this?" β
This time, without Zhu Hao saying it, Tang Yin took the initiative to take the conversation: "It means that on the surface, we are still incompatible, but secretly both sides take a step back to resolve grievances." β
When Pang Qian heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Yesterday there was a land grab, and today he rushed to Anlu non-stop, for what? Isn't it just to keep the situation from getting worse?
He thought to himself, why did you make such a fuss when you said that?
This kid...... He doesn't seem to be stupid and can see the situation clearly, but why was he so aggressive before, asking the Xiangwang Mansion to exchange ten protons?
Tang Yin said: "In this way, there is still room for discussion, right?" β
That's the ultimatum.
We will tell you the ultimate purpose of the negotiations, and you should also make a statement at the right time.
If you can talk, you can talk, and if you can't talk, you can fight.
Who's afraid of whom?
"Hmm."
What else could Pang Qian say, so he naturally nodded.
At this time, they are still pretending, the two sides are really fighting, and the loss of Xiangwangfu will definitely be greater, regardless of whether Xingwangfu will not produce a real dragon in the future, just say that the number of belongings and guards in Xingwangfu is far more than that of Xiangwangfu, who made Xingwang the uncle of the current emperor? People are close to the current emperor, and they naturally receive many rewards, and they are not afraid of fighting at all.
Cause trouble first, and then send people to talk, just because they know that they can't be defeated.
Xingwangfu actively responded to the battle without any worries, because he knew that this battle would be won, and he would not take too many risks.
Zhu Hao smiled: "In this case, then it is up to me to continue to open the conditions...... I said that I asked the Xiangwang Mansion to deliberately send ten people to be robbed by us in the fields, not to make things difficult, but to entertain them with good wine and food when they arrived in Anlu...... These illusions are made for others to see. β
"To whom?"
Pang Qian narrowed his eyes and asked.
Zhu Hao smiled but did not speak.
Tang Yin said angrily: "Pang Changshi, Ming people don't say secret words, they have to break everything, so we can talk well, right?" β
Pang Qian suddenly felt very faceless.
But think about it, there are a lot of people in Xingwangfu, you can guess that in fact, Xiangwangfu is being used by people, and it is also a big man who can't afford to be offended by Xiangwang, except for the current emperor or queen mother, who else can there be? And the emperor has never bothered to ask about the disputes between the palaces, needless to say, that is the queen mother.
Isn't it just for the Queen Mother to see?
"Go on."
Pang Qian further put away his contempt, no longer regarded himself as the chief of the palace, and the relationship between the two sides was further equal.
Tang Yin put his hands in front of him and leaned back on the back of the chair, meaning that Zhu Hao continued to speak.
Zhu Hao did not disgrace his mission, neither humble nor arrogant: "Last year, Xingwangfu made military merits and the court gave land, even if he knew that those acres of land were occupied by Xiangwangfu, and it was correct, I think Xiangwangfu should also know the reason, that is, it caused disputes between the two families...... At that time, Xingwangfu made a decisive move, in fact, it was also to calm the people, Pang Changshi can understand, right? β
Pang Qian didn't say anything, as a civil official, he naturally understood the purpose of Xingwangfu's doing.
The leader of the guards who followed him on the side shouted sharply: "Robbing the fields we are about to harvest, and you still want people to understand? Is Xingwangfu so despicable and shameless? β
Zhu Hao said: "The conflict of interests should not be raised to the level of moral criticism...... Those fields are only a few hundred acres, even if the Xiangwang Mansion is fully occupied, the income from the tax per mu of land may not be less than 100 taels of silver a year, right? Why bother fighting for your life for a hundred taels of silver? β
Pang Qian smiled: "The erector is not enough and conspiracy." β
As soon as Tang Yin heard this, he just said that he wanted to speak well, and now he began to demean Zhu Hao?
Do you want to give me Tang someone's face?
"Bang bang bang!"
Tang Yin didn't talk nonsense, and directly knocked the table three times hard, reminding Pang Qian, don't think that if you are the head of the Xiangwang Mansion, we won't dare to touch you.
Pang Qian, as the governor of the palace, has never seen this kind of negotiation, and he threatens to knock on the table? Xingwangfu won't all be a bunch of bandits, right?
Zhu Hao said with a smile: "Pang Changshi said that I am a vertical, then it is better to be a vertical, but the vertical son has a not very mature suggestion, if the Xingwang Mansion can fill in this hundred taels of silver in other aspects, do you think the dispute between us will be resolved?" β
"Huh!?"
Not only was Pang Qian surprised, but even Tang Yin and Lu Song looked at Zhu Hao with strange eyes.
Let you talk about it, is to maintain the prestige of Xingwangfu, who asked you to represent Xingwangfu to give people a hundred taels of silver?
Who have you asked?
This is obviously a sign of weakness.
Pang Qian's momentum suddenly soared, and he asked coldly: "It's not one hundred taels, it's one hundred taels a year." β
Zhu Hao said: "Of course I know, ask Pang Changshi, you came by boat, right?" β
"So what?"
Pang Qian's face was grim.
"When Pang Changshi got off the boat, didn't you notice the difference between my Anlu and Xiangyang ferry? For example, the number of merchants, the number of collapsed houses and warehouses, or the faΓ§ade of the shop, and the cargo ships that come and go to unload ships......"
Pang Qian didn't speak, of course he saw these situations, but he didn't want to admit it.
Zhu Hao said: "My Anlu Ferry, although it is only a state city, there is an endless stream of merchants, and business and trade are frequent. If it is Xiangyang Ferry, so many warehouses and mansions will be opened, and by the way, merchants from all over the world will be attracted to Xiangyang, and Xiangwangfu will send people to operate all this...... I'm afraid that year's income is definitely not a hundred taels, right? β
"Huh!?"
Pang Qian frowned.
If you say this to ordinary people, you may not understand, but Xiangwangfu is different from Xingwangfu, and the chief butler of Xiangwangfu is still the chief of the palace, so Pang Qian knows everything about the business under the name of Xiangwangfu.
