512 Xiao Wang Xianggong
"The ransom official is disrespectful, the lord is the teacher of the three princes, as long as it can drag on for a few years, maybe there will be some variables......"
Seeing that the horse really didn't think about a suitable way back, Gao Cuifeng was also anxious, stared at the beads of his eyes and looked left and right, to make sure that there was no one in the house, and even glanced at the beams, and then he came to the front and said what he meant in a very small voice.
“…… Hehehe...... I'm really convinced, what are you thinking about all day long? At this time, the expression on Hong Tao's face was wonderful, red for a while and white for a while.
"Xiaguan ......" Gao Cuifeng frightened the donkey's face, this kind of words came out of his mouth, and it was for nothing to be cut on the spot.
"Don't be nervous, this official is just a little emotional. What you said is right, there can be multiple variables, so let's do it in this direction for the time being, whether it can be as desired is still unknown. This must not be mentioned again, and the official knows it in his heart and is very grateful. I'm afraid you won't be able to get out of this place right away, so you can stay here for some time in peace, pick some promising young craftsmen, and don't be too late to do so once Your Majesty's will has been decided. ”
Hong Tao didn't mean to blame Gao Cuifeng, but he felt a little frightened. Now that Gao Cuifeng has seen this step, there must be no fools in the court, and there are many people who are more proficient in this way. You really can't listen to Gao Cuifeng about this, then you will fall into someone else's calculations.
But through this incident, Hong Tao has a high opinion of Gao Cuifeng's character, this is Sima Guang's clan, a real undercover agent, but his step-by-step changes are also the most obvious. Following himself so closely is basically equivalent to breaking with the original family, and the effort is not small, and even the back road is broken.
Even if he can't fully trust him, he can't hurt him, so it's better to let him stay here first, and then find a way to transfer him when he has a definite position.
After solving the problem of the crown and Gao Cuifeng, Hong Tao did not stay in Weiqiao Town for a long time, and continued to set off two days later. The craftsmen don't have to worry about him, whether it is the workshops in Weiqiao Town or Huangzhou, or Liangzhou and Suzhou, the craftsmen used are all from the same lineage, and they are all the descendants and apprentices of those families of Jin Mingchi.
In this era, there is an advantage, when a father or a master recognizes a path, children, grandchildren and apprentices must follow, otherwise they will not be able to mix in this society.
Master, Master, the teacher in front is the teacher, and the father is in the back, worshipping the teacher is equivalent to recognizing the father, and you can't disobey it for the rest of your life. This is the basic requirement of being a person at this time, and there is no possibility of flexibility.
When the children and grandchildren are even worse, Gao Yu's father is just a small businessman, because his son is disobedient and learns badly, a complaint is filed in Kaifeng Mansion. Gao Yu was sentenced to be confiscated on the spot, which shows that his father's words are basically equivalent to the law to a certain extent.
This way is really a wind and a meal, in fact, there is a pavilion Hongtao does not live, it is better to camp and be safe. The speed was about the same as the march of the new army, eighty to one hundred miles a day, and twelve days later, I saw the last pavilion post in the west of Kaifeng, fifteen miles away from the city.
Seeing that it was past noon, Hong Tao decided to set up camp here and enter the city early tomorrow morning. Then you can go directly to see your uncle, if you have something to say, it's boring to drag it out.
In addition, there are indeed a lot of people in the convoy, and it is too late to arrange to enter the city before evening, so you can't really bring the new army into the city, so it will be too high-flying. The emperor was just polite and trusting, just like in later generations, he couldn't take every word of the leader seriously, and it was immediately unlucky to do so.
"Official, Erlang is back." As a result, as soon as the camp was set up, Hong Tao's back had not yet been put on the felt, and Fu Ji's voice came from outside the tent.
"I'm afraid I have encountered the forbidden army, this place is not far from the lockdown, and no one can hide such a battle."
Hong Tao stretched his waist and didn't want to get up, he was not afraid of anyone in the northwest region, and he dared to open the way with crossbow arrows if he dared to block the road, but he couldn't be so fierce when he returned to Kaifeng. This is the national capital, the emperor's nest, and it is not his turn to make decisions about anything, so he must be a man with his tail between his legs.
"Erlang, who are you provoking?" But as soon as he stepped out of the tent, Hongtao noticed that the problem was flying, and the post road to the east was dusty, and it would have taken hundreds of horses to step on such a large battle.
"My lord, Erlang is not a new army who has never seen the world, how can he not understand such a truth. The last general didn't mess with anyone, but the court sent someone to welcome the adult, guess who? ”
Jiang Erlang said that he had seen the world, but in fact, the expression on his face fully showed that he was also a frog at the bottom of the well. No one needs to be so excited, unless it's the emperor.
"Greetings to this officer...... Okay, Lao Gao is right, there are really many people who are looking forward to the official to quickly receive the order to be the thunder, this is for fear that I will go slowly. In this sense, it doesn't seem like it's okay to say it without a prime minister, right? ”
Hong Tao didn't make fun of Jiang Erlang's shallow eyelids, but remembered what he and Gao Cuifeng talked about in Weiqiao Town. Isn't this the great general Desheng's class returning to the court, and the imperial court came forward to welcome a border general who returned to Beijing to perform his duties? There's no such rule.
But people are coming, why? Without it, this is pouring ecstasy soup on yourself. But if you don't understand it in your heart, you will immediately feel that you are a character when you are treated like this, and the bigger the official who comes to greet you, the stronger your self-confidence. So, the person who designed this bureau will not send an ordinary official, it must be of sufficient grade.
"My lord is wise, it's Wang Xiang and Sima Xianggong, hehehe......" Jiang Erlang couldn't help it, he had been a big soldier for half his life, and he had never been greeted by the prime minister out of the city, and it was inevitable to be happy.
"You, it's really not very promising, but if you change to someone else's errand sooner or later, you will still be sold. Go and go, dismantle the tent, and call Mrs. Lian by the way. Mrs. Ji, please go back to your account and dress up, and then go with your husband to greet the two fathers-in-law. ”
Hong Tao pursed his lips, if he was to change to someone else, he might not be sure that it was a game, since Wang Anshi and Sima Guang came forward together, then he didn't run. The two of them are professional pit people, and they are much more dedicated than their own amateurs.
To say that the ancients really did the ultimate in etiquette, anyway, Hong Tao thinks so. Why? Because Wang Anshi and Sima Guang's team arrived early or late, they just appeared in the field of vision after Lian'er and Fuji packed their bags.
After seeing Jiang Erlang come back to report, the bargain deliberately pinched the time to leave, no more, no less, enough to let others groom and dress up, this sense of proportion is really amazing.
If Hong Tao had just crossed over, he had to make sure that someone in his team was holding a mobile phone to report to Wang Anshi, otherwise how could it be so coincidental!
"Xiaguan Wang Shu returned to Beijing on the emperor's order, and he never greeted him from afar, and hoped that the two adults would atone for their sins." Not to mention, Hong Tao has not been an official in vain in recent years, and he has learned some of the rules of officialdom.
This was three or four years ago, he must have stood on the side of the road with a smile, waiting for Wang Anshi and Sima Guang to get off the horse and come over to say hello again. According to the habit of later generations, who Nima is okay and clenches his fists more than 200 meters away, neither seeing nor hearing clearly.
"General Wang is polite, courteous, you killed the enemy for the country at the border pass, and the good news is frequent, and the two of us go out of the city to greet it, how can we chill the hearts of the soldiers at the border pass."
Wang Anshi pretended to be quite similar, every sentence was spurted out of his heart, pulling Hong Tao's arm and not letting go, laughing so sincerely that his beard kept shaking with his face, as if he was excited to cry.
"Not bad, not bad...... These two are the heroines who went out with their husbands, right? It's amazing, there was Mulan in ancient times, don't let it go, don't let it go. ”
Sima Guang was even more shameless, seeing that the words of praising the concubine made Wang Anshi take the lead, so he simply went to Lian'er and Fu Ji, and even used Mulan. Hong Tao pondered, if he took Chen Niang and Sidi with him, what would this fat man say?
But no matter what he thought in his heart, he still had to have a humble smile on his face, and kept saying nonsense such as dare not, there and there, false praise and false praise, etc., and then his two arms were dragged to the forbidden army team on the opposite side, and he got on a white royal horse.
In front of the official to open the road, followed by the banzhi, a gong knocked into the Wansheng Gate, along the way attracted a lot of people to watch. Everyone probably doesn't know who this person who is riding side by side with the two princes of the dynasty is, and he is still walking in the middle.
But this does not delay their enthusiasm to watch the excitement and not be afraid of big things, just point the fingers, and throw flowers at Nima. This made Hong Tao very nervous, for fear that someone would throw the cactus ball over and smash his face.
Surrounded by hundreds of forbidden troops and entered the Liangmen of the inner city, there were more people on Xiyu Street, not only throwing flowers but also shouting, what was shouted Hong Tao didn't hear clearly, so he had to ask Wang Anshi.
"It's the little prince, more than the old man, and the future is terrifying." Wang Anshi answered this question with a smile, brushing his beard and bowing to Sima Guang, really taking the horse as his own junior to show off to outsiders.
"Naturally, naturally, there is a prince in this dynasty, and there is a little prince in Wu, congratulations, and a good story!" Sima Guang didn't go against Wang Anshi this time, and continued to talk about it.
"You two bastards hate me so much, you actually got rid of your previous suspicions!" The more they laughed sincerely, the more Hong Tao's heart beat drums. Well, in order to fool yourself, the two mortal enemies joined forces, and you didn't have such a tacit understanding when you dealt with the Xixia people.
"Don't dare, don't dare, this official just fulfilled his duties, and relied on the help of the two ministers in the court, so he barely lived up to His Majesty's trust, how can there be any comparison, I definitely don't dare to be, shame the official."
scolded in his heart, but he still had to say his lines. Acting, we are the masters who have watched N Oscar-winning films, and our acting skills are also very good, let's see who of us pretends to be.
