After sending Xun You away, Jian Shuo sent someone to summon him, and the emperor had agreed to endorse Zhuang Shaoyou's business! Five million dollars per month for endorsement fees! He also gave Zhuang Shaoyou a gold medal with four big characters on it: If I am here!

Zhuang Shaoyou was immediately overjoyed, and summoned Sun Qian and Ronghua to discuss, and that Sunday did do some business on the ship, selling some ordinary goods.

"Ronghua, there are a few things for you to do! First of all, the auction needs to be put on the agenda immediately, you go and find an open house, if not, get a piece of land to build a new one, at least 5,000 people, the bigger the better! The sooner the better! It would be better to be closer to here!

The second thing is that you go and inform Zhou Tian that tomorrow night you will bring the weapons and equipment into the city and send them to the camp of the Northern Army!

Hurry up and prepare some gifts, and General Ben will go to the General's Mansion to pay a visit! ”

Rong Hua listened: "Huh? To the General's Mansion? Isn't this a sheep in the mouth of a tiger? It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate! Even if there is no problem with security, the face will definitely be damaged! Think twice! Why don't you let your subordinates go to explore the way first, and then the general will go in person? ”

When Sun Gan on the side heard this, he said, "General, can this matter be handed over to his subordinates?" The subordinates will definitely live up to the trust and complete this matter! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou listened to the words of the two and felt that it made sense, if he went, it would be a trivial matter that people would ignore, and if he was rude or humiliated himself, he would lose face! This Sun Qian is the most flexible and skillful, and is most suitable for this task. So he nodded and said:

"Okay, this matter will be handed over to Gongyou to deal with, you must be cautious, if it is not appropriate, come back quickly!"

"Yes!"

…………

In the evening, Zhuang Shaoyou went to Zongzheng Liu Yan's mansion for a banquet.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Liu Yan opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what General Zhuang thinks of this government?" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou said: "I'm just a rough man and uninformed, this government is so complicated, what opinions do you have in Xia, Lord Zongzheng shouldn't make fun of it!" ”

Liu Yan said with a smile: "The general just said what he thought in his heart: complicated! That's right, concise and incisive! This government has always been complicated, and today's government is even more so! What the general said was so bloody, how could it be rude? Isn't the general trying to perfunctory the old man? ”

Zhuang Shaoyou scolded secretly in his heart, this old fox who chews words and chews words, what is it to force himself to do by changing the law? What does he want to do? Ask such a sensitive question?

"Lord Zongzheng, the reason why I think this government is complicated is because when I first arrived, I was already in a quagmire unconsciously, and I couldn't extricate myself, but I didn't do anything, I offended so many people out of thin air, and I had a headache for this!"

Liu Yan smiled: "The general is a person of right and wrong, and second, this Luoyang is a place of right and wrong, so there is this is a place of right and wrong, we are all like this, if you want to jump out of this quagmire, there is only one way!" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou saw that Liu Yan deliberately sold Guanzi, and he didn't know what his purpose was, but he still asked very cooperatively: "What way?" ”

"Hehe, stay away from the land of right and wrong!"

"Oh? Why is that? Is there a better place in the world than Luoyang? ”

"Of course there is! The general's confusion, the old man also empathizes, so he has long had this idea, and is currently looking for the best place to hide, there are already some eyebrows, I don't know if the general can intentionally go with it? ”

Zhuang Shaoyou finally understood, he wanted to win himself over after making trouble for a long time, don't even think about it! On the subject of autonomy, not a word is mentioned! However, he couldn't refuse him too bluntly, so he began to think about it, and Liu Yan didn't urge when he saw this, waiting for his reply.

At this moment, a person hurriedly came in from outside: "Report to the master!" Checkmate! The palace is on fire! ”

"What!" Liu Yan and Zhuang Shaoyou jumped out at the same time, and the palace caught fire? Why did this fire happen? Most likely a conspiracy! The two of them thought of this almost at the same time, Liu Yan's eyes rolled, and he said, "General, let's go and put out the fire quickly!" ”

Zhuang Shaoyou secretly scolded, this dog's day, he was trying to win himself over just now, but now he is in trouble, but he can't wait to push himself out, as if he is afraid that he will implicate him!

What does this palace fire have to do with Lao Tzu? Isn't the palace guarded by the Southern Army? But I still quickly got up and said goodbye and went to check.

Zhuang Shaoyou left Liu Yan's mansion and hurried to the palace gate, when he arrived, he found that a lot of people had gathered at the door, but most of them came to see the excitement, but the palace gate was closed, and it was not clear what was going on inside, Zhuang Shaoyou observed for a while, and saw the fire flashing in the palace, it seemed that the fire was not small! After a little thought, let's hurry back to camp!

After Zhuang Shaoyou returned to the camp, Sun Qian stepped forward to report: "General, my subordinates are fortunate not to be dishonored!" Although I have never seen the general, the gift has been served! I think that since the general has accepted our gift, he will not ask me for trouble! ”

Zhuang Shaoyou breathed a sigh of relief, if He Jin didn't trouble himself, then he could basically walk sideways in Luoyang! So he praised: "I am very relieved that Gongyou is doing things!" ”

"The general praised it!"

…………

The fire in the palace was extinguished after a long time.

The fire was Wang Meiren's bedroom, Wang Meiren was killed in the fire, Emperor Han Ling was furious and summoned everyone to question.

In the main hall of Emperor Ling's bedroom, Empress Dowager Dong, Empress He, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, Jian Shuo, He Jin, Dong Chong and two unknown people were also present.

Emperor Han Ling angrily rebuked: "A bunch of waste! What if it was my dormitory that caught fire this time? Come! Drag the commander of the guard down and cut it down! Immediate execution! ”

Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty was very angry in his heart, Wang Meiren was burned to death, this is definitely a conspiracy! If they don't punish them severely, will they even dare to burn down my dormitory next time? Wang Meiren died, although she was reluctant, but it was not so important, the most important thing in this palace was women! This matter must be inseparable from He Lian's shrew and the ten permanent attendants, so they simply took this opportunity to fight back and recapture the guard! The side of the couch does not allow others to snore!

Wei Wei is in charge of the Praetorian Guard, the Praetorian Guard responsible for the security of the palace, and his status is still above the Jinwu, but there are not so many troops in his hands, but now, the Jinwu has become a virtual reality, so the power of the Weiwei is still very heavy, the key problem is that he is in charge of the troops in the palace, and such an important position is not the emperor's own cronies, so the party of the Ten Standing Servants and the Empress dare to be so strong!

When He Jin heard this, he quickly objected: "Your Majesty is angry!" The fire in the palace this time was quite strange, and the minister thought that someone must have done it on purpose, and the purpose was to frame the guard! ”

Zhang Rang next to him also hurriedly echoed: "Your Majesty, the old slave thinks that the general's words are very true!" The position of Captain Wei is very important, please be cautious with the emperor! So as not to be ridden by villains! ”

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that this palace fire is the duty of the guards! However, Zhijin Wu is responsible for the security of Luoyang, and he can't get out of it! Please ask the emperor to deal with these two together! Dong Chong, who was on the side, hurriedly stepped forward to express his opinion.

"Your Majesty! The concubine thought that there was something strange about the fire in the palace this time, and it might not have anything to do with Wei Wei and Zhi Jinwu! Seeing this, Queen He Lian also stood up and said a few words, this guard is the key to controlling the palace, and there is no room for mistakes, Zhuang Shaoyou's kid is not bad, just help him once!

At this moment, Empress Dowager Dong said slowly: "Your Majesty, the fire in this palace must be a dereliction of duty on the guard, but it has little to do with that ruling Jinwu!" ”

Emperor Han Ling was suddenly embarrassed, this group of guys discussed for a long time and there was no result, whether it was Wei Wei or Zhi Jinwu, neither of them was responsible? So who is responsible? Should I be punished? Then he said unhappily, "What do you think should be done in this matter?" ”

He Jin hurriedly spoke: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Wei Wei and Zhi Jinwu have a certain relationship in this matter; Especially after the ruling Jinwu Zhuang Shaoyou entered Luoyang, he caused trouble everywhere, and took over the Janissary Northern Army after committing misdeeds, resulting in a decline in public security in Luoyang, and chaos abounded. ”

He Jin was triumphant in his heart, Zhuang Shaoyou Xiaoer, do you think it's okay to give a gift to General Ben? Since you have offended General Ben, then you should wait for death! Anyway, General Ben didn't take your gift personally! But speaking of which, your gifts are pretty good! If I raid your house later, it'll all be General Ben's! Why do you need to send it?

He Jin looked at Queen He Lian while pondering, and asked her to hurry up and cooperate with her to kill Zhuang Shaoyou, but He Lian turned a blind eye and didn't care at all, and the same was true for Zhang Rang, except for wanting to keep the guard, he didn't want to get involved in the matter of holding Jinwu.

Dong Chong next to him just wanted to speak, but he was glared back by a look from the Empress Dowager Dong, this Dong Chong and He Jin are from similar backgrounds, they are both rural contemptible husbands, and they can't play politics at all, if it weren't for the Empress Dowager Dong, he would have been killed a long time ago, but Dong Chong is self-righteous and self-serving, which is very similar to He Jin! The only difference is that He Jintian is not afraid of the earth, the eldest of the heavens and his second, he is worthy of killing pigs, and his courage is big! He Lian and He Jin are interdependent, and Dong Chong's personality is a little cowardly, and he never dares to oppose the opinions of the Empress Dowager Dong.

Just when Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty was very embarrassed, Jian Shuo stepped forward and muttered a few words in a low voice, Liu Hong suddenly showed joy, and quickly reined in, glanced at everyone, and said, "Today's matter is over!" Wei Wei and Zhi Jinwu were derelict in their duties and fined for one year! Each paid another five million dollars to rebuild the destroyed palace! Alright, let's all disperse! After saying that, he turned around and left, and Jian Shuo hurriedly followed.

The rest of the people looked at each other, Empress Dowager Dong and He Lian glanced at each other, both of them showed a fierce light, snorted coldly, and left separately, then He Jin also glanced at Dong Chong and left first.

Zhao Zhong asked, "Gonggong Zhang, why did you stop me just now?" ”

Zhang Rang smiled and said: "Holding Jinwu is simply an ornament, the northern army has been evacuated by He Jin, and He Jin's husband is purely to vent his personal anger!" There is no benefit in waiting with me, I saw that Zhuang Shaoyou's kid was still acquainted, so I let him go, so that he could sell him a favor, no better than helping Na He to vent his personal anger! ”

"Grandpa Zhang! Our family is ashamed of itself! ”
