"Second son, the Ming Mansion has arrived!"

When Master Yu's voice came, Wang Zhongxiao had been wandering around in the narrow compartment of a two-wheeled mule cart for a while, and he was about to fall asleep.

Yesterday, he just met a nobleman in the imperial city, and kicked the bodyguard of the nobleman, and then he and the Guanyin Bao who was kicked by him had a lunch produced by the imperial dining room in the arrow pavilion outside Jingyun Gate, and they actually talked very happily, and also made an appointment for a meeting in the eight alleys, and finally sent the family home. In the middle of this, Zhang Xiaobao's sister Zhang Xiaoyu and Aunt Zhang also came to Wang Zhongxiao and sent a notice to Wang Zhongxiao to go to Haidian for an interview...... What a fulfilling day!

Early this morning, he quietly went to Guo's house for gunpowder, borrowed a small mule cart from Guo Jinbao, and then went to the Ming Mansion on the shore of Shichahai with Master Yu and Guo Jinbao.

The reason why he wanted to borrow a car from Guo Jinbao was because Wang Zhongxiao didn't want to ride a horse or walk the aisle, so as not to attract attention. Because when he went home yesterday, he had already inquired with Guo Jinbao and Zhang Xiaobao, and the Guanyin Bao who was kicked over by him was a famous warrior in the white flag and a master of wrestling. Because of his excellent wrestling skills, he was favored by Uncle Fu and promoted from the Lower Five Banners Guard Barracks to his side as the commander of the guards. It is said that Uncle Fu himself has nothing to do, and he will follow this Guanyin to learn two tricks.

Such a master was kicked and fainted by Wang Zhongxiao...... There's a sequel to this thing!

Don't provoke the small one, provoke the big one, hit the big one, and provoke the old drama. Wang Zhongxiao's ideal is to be a great minister, not a great knight. So he wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible, don't always swagger through the market, and save yourself from provoking the children of the Eight Banners who don't like him to compete with him.

In addition, Guanyin Bao also has to further "don't kick and don't know".

After contact yesterday, Wang Zhongxiao had already discovered that Guanyin Bao was not a person with a small belly and chicken intestines, but also a smooth donkey, who could coax well. And he also knew that he couldn't beat Wang Zhongxiao, he was a wrestler, and Wang Zhongxiao practiced murder, and he also got the true biography of Wang Fuchen.

Yesterday's kick, Wang Zhongxiao was actually merciful, otherwise he kicked him in the neck and kicked him to death!

So as soon as Wang Zhongxiao's posture was lowered, he immediately took advantage of the slope to come down.

Besides, whether it's wrestling or killing, isn't it all about making the emperor and King Yu happy? As long as the emperor and King Yu are happy, in the future, when Ao Bai dies, won't he be able to be a high-ranking official? Does it matter who wins and loses?

But Guanyin Bao is on the road, but what about other Eight Banners disciples? Wang Zhongxiao was not interested in kicking them over one by one.

At this moment, when he was wondering whether King Yu promoted Guanyin Bao to train the Kubu boy to catch the Aobai, the carriage had already stopped in front of a small house.

Hearing Yu Deshui say "The Ming Mansion has arrived", Wang Zhongxiao lifted the curtain of the carriage and got out of the carriage, and when he looked up, he was stunned, "This is the Pearl Mansion?" How is it so small? ”

Wang Zhongxiao, the former site of the Ming Mansion, has been there several times in his last life...... Mr. Song's former residence and Prince Alcohol's Mansion were expanded on the basis of the Ming Mansion, which is a big house! Historically, it was also used as a separate courtyard in the middle hall.

But what appeared in front of Wang Zhongxiao's eyes was just a courtyard house with three entrances and no one knew that it was four, which was of course larger than Wang Zhongxiao's house in Bean Sprouts Hutong, but compared to Mr. Song's former residence and the alcohol palace, it was simply small.

This Master Yu and Guo Jinbao didn't lead the wrong way, right?

Guo Jinbao is very good at "drilling", after Wang Zhongxiao got the "interview opportunity", he was very close to him, and now he is a cameo coachman, at this time he is tying the mule to a weeping willow tree outside the gate of Mingzhu Mansion, and when he heard Wang Zhongxiao's words, he laughed with a puff: "This is Beijing, not Qujing, the rules are big, what kind of official lives in what kind of house, all of them must abide by the system...... Although Mingzhu is a nobleman, his official position is that of a bachelor of Hongwen Academy, and he is not a prince who has entered eight points, and there is no emperor's decree to give him a house, how big a courtyard can he have on his own? ”

That's right, Wang Zhongxiao also remembered that although the children of the Eight Banners are not very capable of fighting now, the rules in the Four Nine Cities are still there. Moreover, Mingzhu's power is limited now, and there should not be much ill-gotten wealth from corruption, and it is reasonable that he can't buy a big house. But this is only temporary...... Wang Zhongxiao believes that as long as Mingzhu and himself form a party and dig the corners of the Qing Dynasty together, he will be able to live in a big house sooner or later!

Thinking of this, Wang Zhongxiao set his eyes on the gate of the Ming Mansion, this gate is still a lot more magnificent than the gate of Wang Zhongxiao's house, and the courtyard walls on both sides look very strong, built high with good green bricks, it seems that Mingzhu still made some money in the office of the Minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Alright, let's go through the back door!" Wang Zhongxiao looked back at Master Yu, "Are the gifts and business cards ready?" ”

"Alright, alright." Master Yu came to Wang Zhongxiao with a scroll in his hand, "This is what I bought from Dashilar Jewelry Zhai...... It cost two hundred taels, which is exactly the number of a meeting gift. ”

It turned out that Master Yu went to Dashilar to "Taobao" yesterday, but the real value of the "treasure" he bought was definitely not worth two hundred taels, and two coins of silver were not worth it...... But the owners behind this jewel shop are several current or former ministers of the Interior!

Therefore, this jewelry house is the favorite place for people to go to "Taobao" in Shangsanqi...... If you want to find someone to do something, you can find any kind of treasure, and as soon as you talk to the guys inside, the corresponding "scroll" will be presented immediately, and you can just pay the silver ticket and take it away.

Of course, the real "big treasure" has to take the strips of several ministers and former ministers to "Taobao" in order to find the corresponding treasure.

Wang Zhongxiao stretched out his hand at this time, first took the scroll, and then took two business cards made of white paper, looked down, one of them said "Wang Zhongxiao Shikai" and "Chaoyang Gate Inner Bean Sprouts Hutong", and the other said "Yunnan Aid to Suppress the Right Wing General Military Officer Wang Fuchen" and "Chaoyang Gate Inner Bean Sprouts Hutong".

"That's good, let's go to the door together!"

As he spoke, he walked to the gate of the Ming Mansion with a scroll and a business card in his hand.

With a few "pop" sounds, a black wooden door "creaked" open, and an old man in a green coat and a small hat leaned out of it, staring at Wang Zhongxiao for a while with a triangular squint, and then said slowly: "Go back, my master is not here." ”

After that, the door is about to close.

Of course, Wang Zhongxiao knew that Mingzhu was not at home, because he was here to find Mrs. Mingzhu...... He hurriedly handed over a "door bag" that had been prepared a long time ago, and said with a smile: "Slow down, I'm not here to see Master Ming, but to visit Mrs. Ming." ”

"What? Mrs. Baimin? The old man was stunned, "You, who are you?" Do you know who my wife is? Why do you come to worship? ”

Wang Zhongxiao smiled and handed over the two business cards, "Old man, I am the son of Wang Fuchen, the former guard of Prince Ying's Mansion, my name is Wang Zhongxiao, and I just came to Beijing from Yunnan." It was my father who asked me to come to Beijing to worship his late master. ”

The old man's face suddenly realized: "No wonder it looks so familiar, you turned out to be the son of Living Lu Bu...... Come in, come in. ”

The old man obviously knew Wang Fuchen, and as soon as he heard that Wang Fuchen's son was coming, he quickly led Wang Zhongxiao and others into the door, and let them wait while drinking tea in an inverted room for guests, and then trotted all the way to the door of the hanging flowers.

After a while, I saw this little old man happily walk into the room where Wang Zhongxiao was waiting, and when he saw Wang Zhongxiao, he said, "Wang Gongzi, Gege is invited...... Come with Little Lao'er! Gege was so happy when he heard that you were coming...... Don't be stunned, come on! ”

That sounds like maybe ...... What about adultery?

Wang Zhongxiao with a belly of question marks, followed the old man into the Ming Mansion Hanging Flower Gate, after entering, he saw a very large courtyard and a very bright hall - this should be a four-courtyard courtyard, there are two large and two small a total of four courtyards, the first courtyard has a row of inverted seats, the fourth courtyard has a row of back cover rooms, both courtyards are small courtyards. The second and third courtyards in the middle are both large courtyards, and the houses around the courtyards are similar, but their functions are different. The third courtyard is used to entertain guests, so the large room facing north and south is called the hall, and the third courtyard is the back house of the master's house.

As soon as Wang Zhongxiao walked into the third courtyard, he heard a sweet and greasy voice coming from the hall, "Like, it's really like!" ”

Then there was a young man's voice: "Eniang, what do you say it looks like?" ”

The sweet and greasy voice was a sigh, and he said quietly: "Like Wang Lang when I first met him, alas...... How nice it would be if life was just the first sight! ”

When Wang Zhongxiao heard this, he knew that his unreliable eldest brother Wang Jizhen did not cheat himself, so he strode to the outside of the hall, and then bowed: "Wang Zhongxiao was ordered by his father to visit Gege, Gege is auspicious." ”

The sweet and greasy voice spoke again: "The tone of his speech is the same as that of Wang Lang, he never calls himself a slave in front of me...... Loyalty, huh? Come on in! ”
