17 Wooing
Pan Wulang picked up his wine glass: "Eh, Brother Jiang, don't worry, it's long in the future, it's not good for you to make it difficult for you as soon as the county order comes." The prosperity of my Pan family is inseparable from Brother Jiang's care, but I am not in a hurry at this time. ”
He took a sip of wine, and his tone was very relaxed: "Since the first did not meet the county order, and something big happened, it is inevitable that he will be angry." Why don't we give Cui Xianling a lively and beautiful welcome banquet, maybe he will change his mind as soon as his anger is gone? ”
Jiang Tongfan looked at Pan Wulang's calm demeanor, and suddenly understood the plan of this fifth prince - Pan Wulang wanted to win over Cui Yuanting!
For the Pan family, it doesn't matter who governs Chuyi County, what matters is whether the Pan family's wishes can be achieved.
In the past, the Pan family conspired with him, Jiang Tongfan, and Tongqiu, and each got their own interests, so it may not be impossible to cooperate with Cui Yuanting in the future.
The Pan family obviously doesn't care about the momentary gains and losses, but cares more about who can be more in line with the Pan family's intentions after Cui Yuanting comes.
Cui Yuanting showed a tough side as soon as he came, which seemed to make the Pan family interested?
Where are the eternal friends? Jiang Xiancheng saw the situation clearly, and immediately put away Fang Cai's eagerness, and made a gesture of indifference: "Since this is the case, then I will convey the friendship of your family to Cui Xian Ling when I have the opportunity, and see if he is willing to reward this face." ”
The biggest benefit of this matter is the Pan family, Pan Wulang is not in a hurry, his capital in it is limited, why worry?
Let's see who can endure it!
If the Pan family still wants to wait and see, weigh which one is sinking between him and Cui Yuanting? Hmph, then he has to let the Pan family know who is the one who can cooperate!
Pan Wulang was obviously more concerned about the progress on Steward Cao's side, so he got up and walked to the painting case. First looked down at the painting twice, and saw that two mandarin ducks were painted on it, each with a branch of flowers in their mouths, standing on two lotus flowers, surrounded by colorful clouds, but vivid and elegant.
He turned to Steward Cao and smiled, "Master Cao, how is my cousin painting?" ”
Cao Fenglin happily twisted his beard: "Yes, yes, Ling Mei has the charm of painting, but the technique is not yet hot, such as ......" He pointed to Caiyun, "It would be better if the lines here could be smoother." ”
Pan Wulang arched his hand at Cao Fenglin: "What Cao Ye said is even, Wulang has a reluctant request, I hope Cao Ye will not refuse." ”
Cao Fenglin pretended not to know: "Oh? What does Gorou ask for? ”
Pan Wulang looked at the woman in white: "My sister is Su Xi Danqing, but Cao Ye knows that Chuyi is just a remote county, where can any famous teacher guide her, so Wulang wants to ask Cao Ye to take my sister to find a good painter in Songzhou to give her advice, so that she can fulfill her wishes, and live up to the trust of my aunt who died early." ”
Cao Fenglin smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face deepened: "Haha, Wulang is too polite, it's not enough to worry about trivial things, so that my sister's apprenticeship and painting are wrapped up in the old man." ”
Pan Wulang saluted again, turned to the woman in white and said, "Xue Niang, come and thank Cao Ye." ”
Xueniang Lian moved lightly, blessed Cao Fenglin, and said in a low voice: "Thank you Master Cao." ”
Cao Fenglin gave a handful of help: "You're welcome, haha, haha......"
Jiang Xiancheng, who witnessed everything next to him, had to sigh that the fifth son of the Pan family was indeed outstanding. Let's ask the chief butler of the Assassin's Mansion when he arrives at the boundary of Chuyi, who doesn't want to talk to the heads of these lands?
Even Xu Baixing, who has always relied on him to shade his upper position, jumped up and down and gave gifts to people, but who has such a means as Pan Wulang?
Obviously, he stuffed his cousin to Cao Fenglin, but on the surface, he still owes a favor to the surname Cao, can Cao Fenglin feel uncomfortable with this sycophant? Can you not take care of the Pan family in the future?
So he also smiled and went to the plate to pick up a fruit, raised it over there, and said: "Xue Niang is really a blessing, with Cao Ye's help, what kind of painter can't be found?" ”
Xue Niang only lowered her head, unable to see the expression on her face.
Cao Fenglin's expression stretched, and she sat down on the side of the case, and Xue Niang immediately stepped forward to pour a full glass of wine.
Cao Fenglin glanced at Xue Niang, picked up the wine glass and said to Pan Wulang: "Wulang's mind Cao is saved, don't worry, the person who went to the state government to complain has been taken care of by me, whether it is imprisonment or exile, wait for me to go back and see." ”
Pan Wulang bowed to Cao Fenglin and saluted: "Thank you Master Cao." ”
The Lu family was originally a medium-sized family with little wealth in Chuyi, but because of a village in the family, the Pan family invited him to Mr. Kanyu, who thought that it had hindered the luck of the Pan family, and finally caused a disaster, and finally caused a death.
The Lu family sued the government, but Jiang Xiancheng and the Pan family had long been in collusion, and the Lu family was convicted of false accusation and beaten in vain.
The Lu family was not angry, so they complained to the state government, but Pan Wulang had already entrusted Cao Fenglin, and the Lu family naturally was controlled without even touching the edge of the drum.
Cao Fenglin drank all the wine in the cup, raised his eyebrows and said to Jiang Xiancheng: "The thing you have been worried about has also come to fruition, the state government has received the relevant palace gate copy not long ago, and the sage has been issued - 'Tokyo, Henan, and North should be coerced by thieves to subordinate to the puppet officials and pseudo-origins, and they will be forgiven for their crimes, and everything will not be asked'!" ”
That is to say, the emperor is determined not to ask about the officials who used to hold false positions during the occupation of the rebels!
Jiang Xiancheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this-during the rebels' occupation of Henan Province, as the Cheng of Chuyi County, he and even the assassin of Benzhou almost immediately joined the rebels.
After the recovery, he had been worried about the imperial court liquidating these rebellious ministers, but he didn't expect that today when the news finally landed, the biggest stone in his heart also fell to the ground.
Jiang Xiancheng bowed to the Jingshi: "The saint is wise!" ”
Cao, Jiang, and Pan indulged in talking and laughing, and at this time, a family member reported to Pan Wulang: "Fifth son, Xu Sizuo is asking to see you outside." ”
Pan Wulang looked at Jiang Xiancheng suspiciously: "What is he doing here?" ”
Jiang Xiancheng's eyebrows trembled: "Hey, Xu Baixing hasn't given up yet?" Chased Bajie to Pan's house?
He took a bite of the fruit and said, "Listen to him come in." ”
Early the next morning, Cui Yuanting did not ascend to the court, but went directly to the rice market with Lingfu in civilian clothes.
But...... He looked sideways at the people who were following him-Xu Lingfu was still dressed yesterday, and his facial features were also very familiar, but what was the difference.
Well...... His eyebrows were much darker, his complexion was darker, and his shoulders and waist were a little wider. He also wore a sword on his waist!
"What are you?" Cui Yuanting's gaze probed on her face.
Lingfu patted his waist with a smile and said, "I went to the fat powder shop in the morning to buy some things and 'decorate' them slightly." ”
I see.
This girl is so sensitive, she has learned to hide herself step by step, and now she looks like a delicate teenager.
Cui Yuanting smiled slightly.
They came all the way to the rice market, and the situation was similar to what he expected, and several rice shops put out rice, and it was really a thousand wen and a bucket!
