Chapter 90: The Lobbyist
The greeter came up with a tie and a tray, and there was a price list on the plate: "Daochang Zhao, this guest, what do you two need to order?" said politely, and at the same time handed the price list to the middle-aged monk opposite Zhao Ran.
Zhao Ran waved his hand: "I don't need it, you ask the distinguished guest." ”
The monk on the opposite side looked at the price list, then at Zhao Ran, frowned and was puzzled, and Yingkesong immediately explained: "This inn operates independently and accounts separately, and has nothing to do with the Zongsheng Pavilion. ”
The monk thought about it, took out a silver ingot, a full five taels, and slapped it on the table: "A pot of silver silk fragrant root tea, two cups, and I will pay for Zhao Xingxing's tea." ”
Welcome Song politely reminded: "This distinguished guest, a pot of silver silk fragrant root tea is five taels of silver, add two cups, each cup is fifty taels." ”
The monk froze for a moment, and was about to get angry, when Yingkesong added, "Infinite refills." ”
The monk thought about it, gritted his teeth and took out a hundred taels of silver ticket: "Plus!"
Zhao Ran bowed slightly: "Thank you." ”
The middle-aged monk said: "My surname is Gu, my name is far away, and today I was ordered by my uncle to come here for the dispute between the Zongsheng Pavilion and the Chongde Pavilion. ”
Zhao Ran was puzzled: "The ...... of the Zongsheng Pavilion and the Chongde Pavilion Strife?"
When the tea was served, Gu Suiyuan first filled the two cups, pushed one of the cups in front of Zhao Ran, picked up the other cup and poured it down, poured it full, and then poured it again...... Until the tea in the pot bottomed out, he greeted the welcome pine: "Refill the cup!"
He urged Zhao Ran again: "Drink tea!"
Zhao Ran took a sip of the cup funny, and saw Gu Suiyuan smiling, turning his teacup with three fingers, and said slowly: "Master Jiang broke into some trouble this time, which made the Chongde Pavilion very displeased, and Elder Jingda wanted to go to the general view theory, but was dissuaded by my uncle......"
Zhao Ran asked, "What kind of disaster?"
Gu Suiyuan said: "Zhao Xingxing doesn't know, when Master Jiang was in Guizhou this time, he happened to see Elder Jingda's maidservant, and suddenly ...... Hmm, haha...... Supposedly, it's just a servant girl, if Master Jiang really likes it, it's not impossible to tell Elder Jingda, but he ...... Alas...... Anyway, I can't say it......"
Zhao Ran stretched out his hand and signaled: "Continue." ”
Gu Suiyuan said leisurely: "This is strong, isn't it just that things have changed for the better?" Elder Jing felt humiliated...... Well...... Deeply humiliated, you said that he was the great elder of the pavilion and the master of the Jing clan, and he couldn't even cover the safety of a little maid beside him, how could he have the face to walk in the cultivation world?
Zhao Ran understood now, the other party changed Shui Yunshan's matter to a different person, and wanted to leave Qing Shui Yunshan as bait, set up a bureau to frame Jiang Tenghe, and use others to take the pot, which is really a good calculation.
I only heard Gu Suiyuan continue: "Fortunately, my uncle has an old friendship with Elder Jingda, and he has also had a friendship with Master Jiang for decades. The old man said that if this matter is opened, it will also be a great blow to the prestige of the head of Jiang, for the sake of a servant girl, alas...... Why bother?"
Zhao Ran smiled and asked, "So, you're here to negotiate the conditions?"
Gu Suiyuan poured the tea in the cup into his mouth again: "Well, this tea is really fragrant...... Zhao walked misunderstood, what conditions are not conditional? Gu came to Dajun Mountain to resolve the entanglement. Elder Jingda and Master Jiang are both old friends of my uncle, and my uncle really doesn't want to see the two of them have a quarrel over this matter, so he asked me to come and be a Chinese person. ”
Zhao Ran nodded: "How do you want to resolve it?"
Gu Suiyuan leaned forward, looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "This matter is easy to say, Elder Jingda has a junior of a lay family, and Zhao Xingxing must know about it." ”
Zhao Ran was stunned: "Jing Zhimo?"
Gu Suiyuan leaned back, leaned back on the back of the chair, pointed at Zhao Ran with his fingers, and said with a smile: "Zhao Xingxing is a clever person, no need for Gu to say more." That Jing Zhimo didn't care what he had done, after all, he was just a man in the world, and he had been imprisoned in the Zongguan Prison for five years, and he had endured enough hardship. For the Chongde Pavilion, it is really a very undignified thing, and now it is even more involved in the missing Jing Zhiwu. It is said that Jing Zhiwu is the real murderer who assassinated Zhao Zhiwu, but in any case, the murderer is dead after all, if the murderer is really Jing Zhiwu, Zhao Zhiwu, your revenge has already been avenged, if it is not Jing Zhiwu, where is there any revenge?"
"What do you want to do?"
"So, what my uncle meant, Lou Guan can withdraw this case, this lawsuit is not interesting, I don't know how many years it will take to fight. It's better to let Jing Zhimo go home and detain and take care of it, and don't pursue Jing Zhiwu's matter anymore, what do you think?"
Zhao Ran smiled: "Such a big case, Dongji Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion jointly investigate, can this be withdrawn by my Louguan Pavilion?"
Gu Suiyuan also smiled: "Don't hide it from Zhao, this case spans too long a year, and it involves a lot of energy from the Dongji Pavilion and the Sanqing Pavilion, and the two pavilions have long complained about it." In fact, it has basically been investigated, Zhang Yunzhao's death was due to Jing Zhimo's inadvertent leakage of the news, and the murderer Jing Zhiwu also died when he assassinated Zhao Xingxing, Zhao Xingxing had already mentioned Zhang Yunzhao's revenge, and Jing also paid the price in this matter, so the case was closed, isn't it very good? Zhao Xingxing can rest assured, as long as Louguan reports and withdraws the case, we believe that Dongji Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion will definitely not be able to ask for it. ”
"I see......"
"Just such a thing, as long as Zhao Xingxing agrees, and the grievances between the Zongsheng Pavilion and the Chongde Pavilion are written off, Elder Jingda will not only not go to the General View to report the head of Jiang, but will instead send the maid to Dajun Mountain to serve the head of Jiang. Saying that, Gu Suiyuan showed a yearning on his face: "That maid is nicknamed Shui Niang, Zhao Xingxing only needs to report this name to the head of Jiang, and the head of Jiang will know what it means, hehe." ”
Gu Suiyuan leaned back leisurely and sneered twice: "If not, the matter of Master Jiang forcing women in Chenshan will definitely be boiling and known to the world, and Louguan's thousand-year-old reputation may fall today......"
As he was talking, he suddenly felt a stagnation in his mind, and his thoughts suddenly couldn't keep up, so he thought about it and muttered, "I just talked about ......."
Suddenly, he was stunned again, and his mind was blank one by one, and when he was gradually confused, the teacup in his hand fell to the ground.
Yingke Song and Ma Gong heard the sound of the teacup shattering on the ground, and hurriedly rushed over, only to see Gu Suiyuan's eyes full of sluggishness, and a piece of saliva left on the corner of his mouth......
Seeing Zhao Ran smiled contemptuously again: "Dare to insult my teacher, he is still a great ruthless character, but it turned out to be a waste firewood Jindan, and he didn't even use the phantom array." He picked up the teacup and smashed it on Gu Suiyuan's face, and suddenly smashed it all over his face.
Gu Suiyuan, who was sent by the Gu family to negotiate the conditions, was knocked down by Zhao Ran from Dajun Mountain, Zhao Ran informed Wei Zhizhen of the matter, and Wei Zhizhen nodded: "Senior brother did a good job." ”
Let's not talk about whether Jing Zhimo's matter can be brought out and discussed, no matter what the conditions, as long as you talk about it with the other party, it will be confirmed that Jiang Tenghe forced the people's daughters, then it will really be planted, this is the most dangerous place. Once the handle is in the hands of the person, it will be subject to the person for life, and the other party will never use it only once or twice, it must be again and again, endlessly.
