Chapter 676: Repeating the Old Trick
readx;
At noon, the snow ring did not stop, and sure enough, as the shopkeeper said, in front of the door of the rice shop. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info-=Member Hand Hit.. =* There are more people, the Chinese New Year's Eve snow of goose feathers is full of snow, and the silver frost is covered with snow and ice, and the entire slightly dilapidated Taiyuan City is carved and wrapped in silver.
Next year will be a good year, but with this snow, more people will be hungry and cold. So much so that some of the most stingy people were so hungry that they could not take the last bit of money from their hair, but begged for a bucket or two of old rice mixed with sand and chaff.
People always have to eat well, especially in this cold weather, and they are lucky enough to have a place to live in the city.
A faint mist rose from the breath of many people in the air, and the remnants of snow and ice on the old branches hung in long strips, crystal clear, and as white as a girl's skin.
A courtyard not far away has been repaired, the snow has been swept away, and a red lantern has been hung, making it a little warmer in this snowy day. The rubble of Hengyu in a few places has also been cleaned up, just like from the beginning, the ground collapse has nothing to do with this courtyard, and there is no trace of damage.
Several sedan chairs came out of the end of the street, and then a master came out of the snow, leading the sedan chair from the door of the corner tower to pass, until the side courtyard did not stop, the sedan chair took the lead in falling out of a middle-aged man in a purple robe, this person was a little thin, with a little wine-colored hollowed out of the tiredness on his face, but there was a little bit of nobility in the faint air. He stepped out of the carriage on his mink boots, and as soon as his feet saw the snow, a soldier who came with the cart came over with a fox fur Chinese New Year's Eve coat and put it on him.
Although it was cold, this person's body was as warm as spring, and he seemed to be not warm enough, so he couldn't help but tighten his jacket, his eyes couldn't help glancing at the principal, and said slowly: "If you come to a banquet on such a day, if you don't see it in the face of Zheng Guogong, you really don't want to come." The chief bowed down with a smile and said, "The minister is hard. Wen Xianggong just bowed his head lightly, stepped on the snow and led the people to the hall.
Several sedan chairs that fell behind were also scarlet officials, but these few were familiar with the principal, "the first one is the Taiyuan prefect Wang Zhi" Wang Zhi is not young, sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, always with a smile in his eyes, seeing this principal, he actually did not stand up, and said with a smile: "Today's dove hanging branches, the official thinks, there must be something happy to come."
Sure enough, Grandpa Guo actually came to Taiyuan. ”
Chief Wu smiled and said, "Chinese New Year's Eve is polite. ”
As soon as the guests arrived in the main hall, the dragon was burned in this hall, "no need to burn charcoal, as soon as he entered the hall, the previous man wearing a fox fur couldn't help but take off his coat, and said with a smile: "I knew this, so I didn't bring this burden." ”
In the hall is a round table, a total of twelve hot dishes, six cold dishes, on both sides there are small maids each holding a tray, the plate is steaming, presumably the dish is not finished.
Zheng Ke changed into a Confucian shirt today, and when he saw the guests coming, he had already greeted him with a smile, held Wen Xianggong with both hands, and said: "Wen Xianggong has all the opportunities, and he can't compare to the old man, an idler, who can come today." ”
This Wen Xianggong smiled faintly and said sincerely: "The prince of the country is called, how can the lower officials not come?" ”
The two sat down and exchanged pleasantries, and Wen Xianggong smiled bitterly: "Taiyuan collapsed, I don't know how many things have happened, I have been busy for so long, I can't imagine such an elegant place." Zheng Ke smiled and said: "If Xianggong Wen wants to come, he can come at any time." He whispered to the principal beside him: "Send the house vouchers of this mansion to the Wenxiang Mansion tomorrow." ”
The principal answered.
Xianggong smiled and tinked his mouth, neither showing greed, nor refusing, "just sat in the position of the guest of honor, and said: "I heard that the imperial court has appointed another Qin to send him, is it the king of Pingxi?" I wonder when he will arrive? ”
Speaking of King Pingxi" Zheng Ke's smile stiffened, and then said, "If he comes, I'm afraid that the life of the Chinese New Year's Eve family will be better." ”
Xiang Gong said lightly: "Bianjing is Bianjing, Taiyuan is Taiyuan, he came to relieve his disaster, what's wrong?" Chinese New Year's Eve can't be without dealing with him. ”
Zheng Ke and Wen Xianggong spoke, and the rest of the officials couldn't interject, they all sat quietly with smiles on their faces.
Zheng Ke frowned and said: "King Pingxi is not the Duke of Qi, so don't underestimate Duke Wen." ”
Xianggong pondered for a while, and said: "I naturally know this, I heard that this person has always been ignorant of the rules of officialdom, and he does things unexpectedly, and this governor has also heard of it, he is a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and we are idle clouds and wild cranes. Wen Xianggong smiled, as if he was sorry for himself, and continued: "But then again, Taiyuan has the rules of Taiyuan, he came, the Chinese New Year's Eve family respected him for three points, and the Chinese New Year's Eve family went their own way, and each had nothing to do with it. But if the rabbit is in a hurry, it will bite people, and the dog will know to jump over the wall when it is in a hurry! If you really want to be in a hurry, who in this room can easily provoke? ”
Everyone couldn't help laughing, and the king interjected a sentence straight and said: "According to the lower officials, King Pingxi is here to rescue his father-in-law this time, and he must be unwilling to make extraneous branches." ”
Xianggong smiled lightly and said: "The father-in-law who rescued him, he needs to pull a scapegoat out to carry the black pot for his father-in-law, this person is either you or me, otherwise it will be ......" He smiled slightly, his eyes fell on Zheng Ke, and said: "Even Zheng Guogong may not be." ”
There are many people involved in the affairs of Qi Guogong, and he came over this time and refused to buy grain, I don't know how many people were to blame, so someone would set a trap, and the Chinese New Year's Eve family fell into the well together, pitting that Qi Guogong.
Otherwise, relying on one Zheng family alone, how can they incite the people's uprising? The border army and the errand suddenly disappeared, and it was suddenly revealed when things were almost in between?
This coincidence of piles, what needs to be dotted is the relationship between all aspects, and now that the surname Shen is here, he is naturally here to settle the account. If the people here are not afraid, it is also false, but at this time, everyone is pretending to be calm and calm, trying not to be underestimated: it's just that many things are bitter and self-aware, what kind of person Shen Ao is, everyone knows a little, this person has always been resolute and decisive in doing things. When this person arrived in Taiyuan, the ground in Taiyuan had to be shaken.
Everyone was silent, no one squeaked. At this time, Zheng Ke picked up his chopsticks and picked up a mouthful of vegetables to chew slowly, and said with a smile: "What are you doing with these frustrating words?" Shen Ao is just a human being, and he doesn't have three heads and six arms, as long as he can do things without leaking and don't let him catch the sore spots, what is there to be afraid of? Go ahead. He began to eat and drink.
One dish after another came up, and one by one the empty plates were withdrawn, and it took half an hour to "work hard" A few people are full of wine and food. Let's get up and sit down in the side hall next door," the good tea was handed over, and I drank it slowly. Tea, all the bones are stretched. Wang Xianggong smiled and said: "Zheng Guogong, after eating this wine and food, and drinking tea, it's time to open the skylight and say something. Why don't you get straight to the point? Now the Chinese New Year's Eve home is a grasshopper on a rope, and there is nothing to hide. ”
Wang Zhi echoed: "What Wang Xianggong said is that the disaster of Chinese New Year's Eve is coming" What else is twisted? To be honest, Xiaguan is still regretting it now, Xiaguan is not afraid of Qi Guogong, but this King Pingxi will kill, the Shangfang sword in his hand can't cut the neck of Guogong and Wang Xianggong, but Xiaguan is not small Chinese New Year's Eve is just a five-product, really want to cut off the official's head, isn't it the same as cutting leeks? He sneered, and said that his neck was really a little cold.
Zheng Ke smiled and said, "Wang Chinese New Year's Eve people are relieved, no one can cut off your head." His face became serious, and he continued: "Since you want to say it, then it doesn't hurt to make it clear. This Shen Ao came to Taiyuan to kill people, and only by killing people can he clear the charge of losing the Duke of Qi. At the moment, he is ready to fly, and he can't refrain from sending it. But what about us? ”
Xianggong frowned: "We can't help but sit still." ”
Zheng Ke closed his eyes and said, "Exactly." It is not easy for the Chinese New Year's Eve family to get to this point today, even if it is dead, it is necessary to fight for a fish to die and break the net. So I thought about it, there is only one way to be arrogant to Shen Ao. ”
Everyone cheered up, "Discussing with a prince is enough to make them nervous, let alone King Pingxi?" It's just that the current situation is endless, and sitting back and waiting for death is the only way to die. Well, to this, the Chinese New Year's Eve family is not afraid, since there are only two roads, naturally have to fight.
Zheng Ke said lightly: "Why don't you repeat the old tricks" But this time, it is not the same.
The old technique was repeated with the ......, and this old technique was naturally an example of Qi Guogong, inciting the victims to "surround the Qin mission and make trouble."
Xianggong leaned over and said, "Why is it illegal?" ”
Zheng Ke said coldly: "It's a show in front of the domain" It's almost too much trouble, and then I'll give Qi Guogong to relieve the siege. But this time we have to fake it, let's not go and solve the siege......" He paused, looked at everyone, and then said leisurely: "Go collect the corpse!" ”
"What a borrowed knife to kill!" Wen Xianggong couldn't help laughing and said: "Qin sent the people on Chinese New Year's Eve to Taiyuan, did not think of helping the victims, the disaster people rose up angrily, besieged and killed Qin Cha, the governor heard the news, immediately led troops to rescue, but the thief was too Chinese New Year's Eve, and the incident happened in a hurry, compared to the time when the thief was dispersed, the king of Pingxi had already died for the country?" ”
Wang Zhi also followed: "The law does not blame the public, not to mention that on the cusp of this storm, although the homeless people besieged and killed the Qincha, they are also excusable. ”
Zheng Kedao: "This is the safest example, just like a cat eats a mouse, a mouse eats an elephant, the king of the west can eat us, but we can eat those homeless, the homeless people are crazy, no matter what prince he is or Qincha?" What if you kill it? ”
Jia Xianggong laughed, stroked the beautiful beard under his chin and said: "It's okay to do this, he wants our life, we want his life." ”
A Chinese New Year's Eve stone landed in everyone's hearts, so they moved the topic away and talked about the recent situation in Taiyuan.
Xiang Gong said with a smile: "Now that it is winter, the grain of the imperial court cannot be transported, and the surplus grain of the nearby Lufu has been snapped up by the Zheng family, and three months is enough for the Zheng family's business to prosper." ”
The implication is already clear, the Zheng family has made so much money, and the Chinese New Year's Eve family has to take such a Chinese New Year's Eve risk to protect the Zheng family, and they have to come up with some benefits no matter what.
Zheng Ke thought to himself, what is this money? The real Chinese New Year's Eve is still the 120 million guan, if you can get rid of the lost surname Shen here, the Zheng family will be willing to pay more money.
Zheng Ke said with a smile: "This is easy to say, there will definitely be a generous gift from the Governor's Mansion at that time." ”
Xiang Gong stiffened his face and said, "What did Guogong say?" The Chinese New Year's Eve family is in the same boat, as if the lower officials want to share a piece of the Zheng family's pie. Then he smiled, and the politeness was over.
As he was talking, a soldier crawled over and said, "Governor, it's not good, the king of Pingxi is here." ”
"So bolted ......"
The heart that had just been put down was all suspended again at this time, discussing that it was one thing to get rid of Shen Ao, and it was another thing for the person surnamed Shen to come, and it was also false to say that he was not afraid of the surname Shen.
Xianggong tried his best to make a calm appearance, and said slowly: "If you come, you will come, what are you doing?" Now that it is snowing so much on Chinese New Year's Eve, do you still want us to go out of the city to meet us? ”
Zheng Kedao: "I came a day earlier than him, I didn't expect that as soon as the old man arrived, he also arrived, it seems that he is not slow along the way, but he can't wait to throw himself into the net." ”
During the death of the army, Ai Ai said: "But the king of Pingxi does not enter the city......"
"Don't go into the city? What does he want to do? There was a hint of surprise on Wen Xianggong's face, the surname Shen has always played cards out of common sense, and he was not allowed to be careless.
The soldier said: "The brothers of the city gate and the king of Pingxi had a conflict, and it was a Chinese New Year's Eve, so let me report it first and ask Wen Xianggong to take a look." ”
Xianggong snorted coldly: "It's ridiculous, there was a conflict before entering the city, isn't this King Pingxi going to find fault and not stop?" He stood up, had his fox fur put on it, and said, "Go, look." ”
Zheng Ke refused to leave his seat, and said with a faint smile: "The model of the minister is gone, and the old man will not send it." ”
Wang Zhi and several other officials couldn't sit still, and they all stood up, wanting to go with Xianggong Wen to see what was going on.
