Chapter 141: Danger Lurks (2)
In the middle of the day, Zhuang Shaoyou came to Taiwei Fanling Mansion early, the location of this mansion is not bad, not far from the palace, but the scale is much smaller! Not even half the size of Dong Chong's General's Mansion! But it also looks chic.
Zhuang Shaoyou handed over the post, and a middle-aged person who looked like a steward immediately came out of the gate of the mansion, and when he saw Zhuang Shaoyou dressed in white, his face was suddenly full of smiles: "This is General Zhuang, right?" The housekeeper in the Xia Nai Mansion, the master has been waiting for the general in the mansion for a long time! Shogun, please! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou followed the housekeeper into the house, this house is also a rectangular house with three entrances and three exits, the first entry is the outer courtyard, the second entry is the main hall, less than a quarter of an hour's effort, Zhuang Shaoyou has come to the main hall, and saw a man about sixty years old sitting in the hall, not tall, about seven feet, wearing light cyan civilian clothes, with a goatee, his face is wrinkled, his face is slightly yellow, his eyes are not big or small, just right, he looks like a polite old gentleman.
When the man saw Zhuang Shaoyou coming in, he said with a smile: "General Zhuang is here, and the humble house is shining!" The old Fan Ling is honored! ”
Seeing this, Zhuang Shaoyou hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "In Xia Zhuang Shaoyou, I have seen Lord Taiwei!" ”
"Hehe, General Zhuang is really a young hero! The old man was overjoyed when he saw it! If the old man has a daughter to be married, he must be cheeky to recruit General Zhuang as his son-in-law! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou said with some embarrassment: "Thank you Lord Taiwei for your kindness!" ”
"Hehe, patronizing and talking, General Zhuang, please take a seat! Come! It's time to feast! ”
The housekeeper hurriedly went to Zhangluo for a banquet, Zhuang Shaoyou and Fan Ling were also seated as guests, and soon, the housekeeper entered the hall with a team of maids, and the exquisite dishes were placed in front of Zhuang Shaoyou, and the maids poured wine for them.
Fan Ling picked up the wine glass and said: "General Zhuang, the old man is the host today, I will give General Zhuang a glass first, you and I are both newly promoted to high positions, and the old man is willing to encourage the general!" Be loyal to the court! As he spoke, he tilted his head and drained the wine in his glass.
Seeing this, Zhuang Shaoyou also hurriedly drank the wine in the cup, well, it tastes good, it seems to be rice wine, lighter than the wine in Liaodong, it is estimated that he will not get drunk tonight, he can drink it with confidence!
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Fan Ling suddenly said: "General Zhuang, I heard that the general and the general have some disputes recently?" Are the rumors true? ”
Zhuang Shaoyou was taken aback, too direct, right? I still like to be more subtle! After a while, he thought about it and said: "Lord Taiwei, I accidentally injured the general's subordinates when I entered the city a few days ago, so there were some entanglements, but it was not a big problem!" ”
Fan Ling smiled slightly: "If General Zhuang is young, he will have a city in his chest, and he will admire him!" However, the matter of the general and He Jin, now the city is full of wind and rain, although the old decay is old, but it is not so old and dizzy, why should the general perfunctory to me? ”
Zhuang Shaoyou was a little embarrassed, this old man was direct! So he said helplessly: "Lord Taiwei, don't blame! It is indeed a contradiction with He Jin in the next, and I am worried about this matter in the next, I hope that Lord Taiwei will teach me! ”
After Zhuang Shaoyou finished speaking, he gave a deep salute, without the slightest intention of being pretentious, and Fan Ling nodded very gratifyingly: "General Zhuang doesn't have to be polite!" I am a Han self-quality, Chong the second emperor to return, the women's temple interferes in politics, traitorous ministers take power, the dynasty is sluggish, and the people are not happy! There is the Zhongping Yellow Turban Rebellion! Although I Fan Ling is old, I still have a boiling blood, and I am willing to give up this mortal body, get rid of traitors, revitalize the dynasty, turn the tide of the tide, and return my big man to Lang Lang Qiankun! Can General Zhuang be interested in going along? ”
Zhuang Shaoyou sighed in his heart, he is a foolish and loyal person again! Courage is commendable, but I'm afraid it's hard to succeed! Although I hate He Jin, I don't want to get entangled in the whirlpool of these power struggles, the more I struggle, the tighter I shackle, it's really helpless! This old man is so blatantly trying to win himself over, it's really difficult to do it now!
Fan Ling looked at Zhuang Shaoyou, who was hesitant, and couldn't help but ask: "General Zhuang doesn't think that there is still a possibility of studying with Na He, right?" The old decay might as well tell the general, then He Jin was born from a humble background, once he gained power, he became reckless, those who obeyed and those who rebelled died, and he was narrow-minded, and he would be retributed! Even if the general wants to follow the flames, I'm afraid there will be no chance! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou smiled bitterly in his heart, this trip to Luoyang was originally intended to grasp the general trend of the world, and at the same time to dig out some talents to go back to southern Liaoning, but now he has been deeply trapped in the whirlpool of power struggle in Luoyang, and it is difficult to extricate himself for a while.
Fan Ling saw that Zhuang Shaoyou was reluctant to speak, and sighed: "Since everyone has their own ambitions, then the old decay will no longer force it!" The Tao is not the same, the old and decrepit are tired, General Zhuang, please take care of yourself! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou looked at Fan Ling in amazement, this old man has such a big temper, and he is also a straight intestine, he is very suspicious of how he climbed to such a high position? But since they sent off the guests, they had to leave, although they were not very decent and were kicked out, but it doesn't matter, I have been in the late Han Dynasty for so many years, and I have never had any awareness of the word decent! Otherwise, I wouldn't pretend to be crazy and stupid to fool Queen He Lian!
When Zhuang Shaoyou returned to the camp of the Northern Army, when he was already exhausted, he entered the official office and found that Sun Qian was still waiting for him.
When Sun Qian saw Zhuang Shaoyou coming back, he hurriedly got up and saluted and said, "General, just after tonight, the palace sent someone to find the general, saying that the queen mother was invited!" The subordinates couldn't shirk it, so they had to promise the eunuch that the general would enter the palace early tomorrow morning to meet the queen! The subordinates are incompetent, please forgive the general! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou's head was as big as a fight when he heard it, and the lonely old woman was addicted to listening to the story! If you pester yourself every day, then you don't have to do anything! If she gets her to bed to tell stories again, wouldn't it become a male pet? It's disgusting! And after a long time, if there are some scandals, it will be fatal! For example, the new ruling Jin Wuzhuang Shaoyou stayed in the queen's dormitory overnight and did not return all night!
Thinking of this, Zhuang Shaoyou shuddered, if this kind of thing really happens, I'm afraid that Liu Hong will kill himself! Dare to cuckold the emperor? It's a long life! No, we have to find a way to get rid of that old woman! Then again, in fact, He Lian is not old, she is only thirty years old, she is the age of full charm and wolf-like tiger, if she is not the queen, it doesn't matter if she plays by herself, she is already twenty-two years old! Twenty-two-year-old old virgin, what a cup!
By the way, there is also the palace maid who hooks the soul, it is really haunting! I really want to see her again! But what if you see it? Zhuang Shaoyou was very entangled in his heart, is this going or not going? Do you want to find a way to get rid of Queen He Lian's entanglement? Do you want to see the palace maid again?
"General, please forgive your subordinates for talking too much, now the general seems to be infinitely beautiful, but it is like the duckweed on the water, without any foundation, and the general has now offended the general He Jin, even the hussar general Dong Zhong is also a little misunderstood about the general, when today's son is moody, the ten permanent servants and Jian Shuo are insatiable, in case of a sudden turn of face in the future, the general is in danger! Therefore, the subordinates think that the general must not offend the queen! If you can get the support of the queen, you can not only stabilize He Jin and the ten permanent servants, but also contain the Son of Heaven and Jian Shuo! Please be cautious and don't like it! ”
Zhuang Shaoyou listened to Sun Qian's words, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, yes, after he came to Luoyang, he offended He Jin, Dong Chong, Yuan Shu, and Fan Ling tonight, the only reliance is the support of Emperor Han Ling Liu Hong, in case Emperor Han Ling turns his face, then he will die immediately without a place to be buried, even if he is lucky to get out, then this trip can be regarded as a failure! Isn't it true that he is engaged in politics? Seeing how calm Sun Qian is, he can clearly analyze the pros and cons of things, but he is always emotional! This pool of water in Luoyang is too deep!
Zhuang Shaoyou calmed down and said, "Gongyou's words are reasonable! General Ben knows! ”
Sun Qian saw Zhuang Shaoyou listen to his words, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and was still a little happy, he neither had the courage to fix the country like Tai Shici, nor the ability to settle the country like Guoyuan, and was even worse than Hua Xin, who was full of scheming, he relied on the ability to observe words and colors and a clever mouth, and now he finally played some role!
"General, tomorrow night's arrangement for you is Henan Yin Wangyun, this person is the descendant of the famous Wang family in Shanxi, has been in politics for more than 30 years, has been a Yuzhou assassin, engaged in Langzhong, is also a well-connected person, if you can make friends with this person, you can also make the general's foundation in Luoyang more stable!" Sun Qian carefully explained Wang Yun's matter.
Zhuang Shaoyou nodded: "Well, I know!" But I was thinking in my heart, there is a big beauty in this Wang Yun's family! I really want to see what it's like!
