Chapter Ninety-Eight: Ten Thousand Taels of Silver for Wine Money
After they left, Master Fan carefully looked at this cockfighting cup, this cockfighting cup was used by the royal family of the previous dynasty, there is no market, he once saw it in King An's mansion, King An proudly told everyone that this cockfighting cup, according to historical records, there are only twelve pairs. At that time, the Wei Dynasty collected heavy antiques, only this cockfighting cup, cherished by collectors, in the middle of the Wei Dynasty, there was a pair of outflows, but sold for 100,000 taels of silver.
King An said that after the war, there was only one pair, and even if anyone offered a high price, he would not sell it, but if someone sold it, he would buy it at a high price.
Master Fan naturally wouldn't sell this to King An, he planned to give it to King An, and if he could get a prince, it wouldn't be a loss.
Master Fan personally put away the cockfighting cup, and then went to see the prefect.
The prefect was enjoying the cool in the backyard, and when he saw Master Fan, he said with a smile: "Bozong, what are you doing when you come to see this mansion?" ”
"My lord, today there is a father-in-law from other places who came to find the little old man and give you a birthday gift."
"What kind of gift, let you make a special trip to tell this house."
"Zhou's Treasure Chest."
After hearing this, the prefect was also surprised and said, "Are you sure it's Zhou?" ”
"That's right, there is also Master Yan's money on the top, which should be treasured in Master Yan's mansion."
After hearing this, the prefect was silent for a while, stood up, and said to Master Fan: "It's for that Zhang Longqing's matter." ”
"Your Excellency will guess it."
After hearing this, the prefect paced back and forth, and said to Master Fan: "In this way, this Zhang Longqing still has some money. ”
Master Fan knew the meaning of the prefect's words, and because of the cockfighting cup, he said to the prefect: "My lord, the origin of this little minister is not simple, the little courage, if that Zhang Longqing is really innocent, then let it go." ”
"What is the origin of a businessman's friend?"
"My lord, you are also from Fengcheng, have you ever known about the Ge family."
"I know, the head of this Ge family is the same year as me, and now he is on duty in the Xia Guanfu."
"This little minister's name is Ge Guangmu."
"Cantonese generation? This is right, since it is the same clan of the young brothers, then it can be opened. ”
"The small one will let the gentleman co-brand, and it won't make the adult embarrassed."
After hearing this, the prefect nodded, and said to Master Fan: "When the time comes, I want to meet this Ge Xianggong, if it is true, then naturally I can release him, if I come under an impostor, then I will naturally be punished." ”
Master Fan said yes, but he was very sure in his heart, this Ge Guangmu is real, Ge Guangmu talks and talks with demeanor, all of them look like they come out, not like a liar.
Mr. Fan asked the prefect when he was free, and the prefect said that tomorrow, Mr. Fan would write the joint letter today.
Master Fan said yes, so he went to Zhangluo, and in the afternoon, he also asked the servant to inform Ge Guangmu and let Ge Guangmu and himself go to see the prefect tomorrow.
When Ge Guangmu got the news, he settled down, rested for a night, changed into a gorgeous costume the next day, dressed up and went to Master Fan's mansion, and then went to the prefect's yamen together.
After waiting for half an hour, the prefect announced that he would see them, and after Ge Guangmu came in to salute, the prefect saw that Ge Guangmu was a talent, as if carved from jade, and couldn't help but feel a little happy.
The prefect asked Ge Guangmu if he knew Ge Guangsen, and Ge Guangmu said that he knew that they were of the same clan.
Ge Guangmu told the situation of the Ge family, and after listening to it, the prefect matched what he knew, so he was relieved.
Next, the prefect told the truth about the incident, and he naturally didn't say the truth and stayed here, but said that after being punished by himself, he drove away.
As for why Zhang Longqing was not released, this matter was a big matter, and he did not dare to release him easily.
Ge Guangmu naturally said that he understood the difficulties of the prefect, and he would definitely not blame the prefect for this incident, but the villain who chewed the root of his tongue.
After saying this, Master Fan also handed over the joint letter, and after the prefect read it, he said that if there was a guarantee from the gentry in the city, then he could also release him, so he asked Ge Guangmu and the lieutenant to go to the prison together.
Before arriving at the prison, Wan Er was already waiting there, Wan Er saw the captain, took out ten taels of silver, and said to the captain: "This official, I'm tired of you, this little wine money, warm your body." ”
The lieutenant accepted the silver and said with a smile: "Two ministers, I'm really embarrassed, this prison is very unlucky, your two elders are both golden, just wait outside." ”
Speaking of this, the lieutenant asked if Manji had come with clothes, and Wanji said that he had prepared new clothes, and the lieutenant said that it was fine, and then asked them to wait.
Soon Zhang Longqing was brought out, Wan Er took out the prepared new clothes for Zhang Longqing to change, and then burned the torn clothes.
Ge Guangmu couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw his uncle looking haggard, hunched over, and completely devoid of energy, thinking that his uncle was so old and suffered such an unwarranted disaster, which really made people cry.
Wan Er asked the coachman to take everyone to the store, and Xiao Er and the bookkeeper couldn't help but be happy when they saw Zhang Longqing come back.
Wan Er had already ordered him to come in the morning, Xiao Er prepared a table of banquets, and after these few glasses of wine, Zhang Longqing had his spirits, sighed, and told Ge Guangmu that this prison is really not a place for people to stay.
Zhang Longqing said that although he did not receive any torture, but this cell is not big, the torture room is in the prison, and he hears the screams of people being tortured every day in this prison, which scares away two souls of the three souls, and Zhang Longqing is always worried that he has really been convicted of rebellion, and when the time comes, the whole family will be beheaded, and the seven spirits will be lost at once.
Ge Guangmu hurriedly said that everything was over, and Zhang Longqing also asked Ge Guangmu how to save himself.
Ge Guangmu told him what happened, Zhang Longqing hurriedly got up and saluted Wan Er, Wan Erlian said that he didn't dare, stopped Zhang Longqing from saluting, and said to Zhang Longqing: "You are always the uncle of Brother Ge, and you can be regarded as my uncle, why thank you." ”
After Zhang Longqing heard this, he sighed that Ge Guangmu came here and made a friend. Next, Zhang Longqing asked about money, this relative is a relative, money is money, how much it costs this time, he has to pay it back to Waner.
Wan Er smiled and said: "A little money, just a piece of furniture, to be honest, this furniture is useless in my house, if I die in the future, I don't know if future generations will chop this as firewood." ”
Zhang Longqing insisted on paying back the money, Wan Er thought about it, and finally said that if Zhang Longqing had this thought, he would give himself a jar of wine every month, he didn't have any hobbies, he just liked the things in this cup.
Ge Guangmu knew Wan Er's character, so he also asked Zhang Longqing to agree, and when the time came, Zhang Longqing could buy some famous wine for Wan Er.
Zhang Longqing could only agree, and asked Xiao Er to write it down.
Next, Wan Er asked what was going on, Zhang Longqing was also a second monk who was confused, and told the prefect about the questioning, and after Wan Er heard it, he said to Zhang Longqing: "I know this Wu Shitai, so that's the case." ”
Ge Guangmu saw that Wan Er understood, and asked Wan Er what he knew.
Wan Er said that Wu Shitai was his enemy, and the two of them had a feud, his grandfather was called Wan Shitai, and his father deliberately took the word Shitai in his son's name, taking advantage of his grandfather in turn.
As for why he blamed Zhang Longqing, it seems that Wu Shitai also knew about his relationship with Ge Guangmu, and knew that he would help him and make himself ruined.
Speaking of this, Wan Er told Zhang Longqing that this incident was still caused by himself, and he made Zhang Longqing suffer.
Zhang Longqing said that his loss was worth it, and he was able to know a good man like Wan Er, who was righteous and squandered money, and his prison in the past few days was worth it.
Wan Er said that Wu Shitai would definitely not let him go so simply, and he had to be on guard.
Ge Guangmu said that he now has martial arts, and if Wan Er needs anything, he can also help him.
Wan Er drank a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Brother Ge, you are practicing the authentic sect of Xuanmen, and your achievements in the future will definitely be above me, but now that you are still shallow, I understand your intentions, and when you really need Brother Ge in the future, I will ask Brother Ge for your help." ”
Wan Er poured a glass of wine for Ge Guangmu, and then the two sides toasted, not mentioning this matter.
When the feast was over, Zhang Longqing and Ge Guangmu watched Wan Er leave, and Zhang Longqing said to Ge Guangmu: "This Young Master Wan has helped us too much, we should find a way to repay him." ”
"Maybe someone knows." Ge Guangmu thought of someone, and then said to Zhang Longqing, go find a friend and ask.
Zhang Longqing asked Ge Guangmu to go early and return early, Ge Guangmu arrived at Yusheng Garden, it happened that the rose girl was free, the rose girl looked at him now, the smile on her face was even sweeter, and she greeted him and asked Ge Guangmu why he was free to see him.
Ge Guangmu asked about Wan Er, and Rose said with a smile: "Young Master Ge, if you ask about other people in the concubine body, the concubine body may not know, but the matter of this young master Wan is clear in his heart." He, the daughter of a minister in the court he likes, so the girl once went to Qingzhang Mountain to incense, and I don't know how she met Young Master Wan. However, that family is a noble family, although Young Master Wan is not bad, but he can't climb high. ”
"I don't know which family?"
"That woman's aunt is the wife of Duke Lin Wenzheng, now you will understand."
Ge Guangmu has heard that Lin Quan's wife is a lady in the Kangguo Mansion, so this person's father is also in the Kangguo Mansion. With such an identity, even if a person like Wan Er is indeed not a good match.
Ge Guangmu doesn't have any good solutions, although the Ge family is a family, but compared to the Kangguo Mansion, it is nothing. And he doesn't have an official position, so it's not easy to fight.
