Chapter 783 Planning
Zhao Hanzhang handed over the money to Fan Ying and Zeng Yue, and told them: "You assist Mr. Ming to send them away. In two days it will be the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, and people must send them away before the ceremony."
Zeng Yue and Fan Ying responded in unison.
Zhao Hanzhang turned around and was about to go out. After thinking about it, he called the two of them back, "If possible, redeem Zheng Mingzhu and let them leave together."
Fan Ying's eyes were wet, she responded in a low voice, and went to find Mingyu with Zeng Yue.
Ming Yu heard Zhao Hanzhang's request, thought for a while and said: "We can't go together, I'll go to make arrangements first, so that they can leave today. As for Zheng Mingzhu, if she is lucky, I will redeem her and send her away."
Fan Ying asked: "Is it difficult to redeem?"
Mingyu sighed and said: "The general is very strict with the rules, Zheng Mingzhu is no longer a concubine, but the people in the general's mansion are restrained in every word and deed, and there is basically no possibility of redemption, so even if I have some face, It’s hard to redeem people.”
Fan Ying pursed her lips and said, "We will do our best."
Mingyu nodded, and planned the route with the two of them to send them away.
Ming Yu didn't intend to show up by himself, so he went to find General Pei.
The emperor sacrificed to heaven, and Gou Xi's generals also came to participate. General Pei arrived two days ago.
For the old friend's request, General Pei agreed after asking the identities of Tan Shen and Zheng Xiao.
Ming Yu asked him quietly, "Have you thought about leaving Yanzhou?"
General Pei took a deep look at him and said, "I'm afraid there is no way out."
Ming Yu poured him a glass of wine and said in a low voice, "I am your gateway."
General Pei was a little excited and nervous, and asked in a low voice, "When?"
"My family doesn't mean to fight against the general right now. The current enemy is Liu Yuan and Shi Le. Only when they are disabled can we fight internally. Otherwise, they will attack us as soon as we make a move. It's very annoying. "Ming Yu said: "She said that the world should be the most important thing, and the people should be the most important."
General Pei's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he was a little disappointed, "It's a pity, if Mr. Yan is still here, I would be so happy to know that I can meet such a good master."
Ming Yu was in a bad mood when he heard him mention Yan Heng.
He looked out the window and saw the people coming and going on the street. Gou Xi and Gou Chun should have known that he was back in Yuncheng, right?
But they didn't do anything, they even treated Zhao Hanzhang well yesterday, it really is bullying.
"General Pei, is it still the Jiang family who provide the treasures to the General's Mansion?"
"Yes," General Pei disliked the Jiang family, and said contemptuously, "The general was seduced by them."
Ming Yu smiled, but did not respond. He also knew that General Pei had a deep prejudice against the Jiang family, so he did not explain.
However, General Pei didn't know the inside story. As Gou Xi's former staff, he and Yan Heng had the right to check the account books. The Jiang family might not like Gou Xi very much.
The Jiang family was a gentry in Yuncheng, and even a big businessman in Yuncheng. When the emperor moved the capital at this time, it was their family who took out the garden and made it the emperor's palace.
Because of this, someone from the Jiang family entered the court as an official.
But compared with Gou Xi's status, the Jiang family is just a basin of water by the river, so the Jiang family flatters Gou Xi.
The gifts and treasures given at the beginning were just to improve the relationship between the two families. Who would have known that Gou Xi had bitten the Jiang family since then, and bought many things in the General's Mansion with the Jiang family.
But Gou Xi was obviously not a hospitable guest. Because he was short of money, he bargained for many things, and the Jiang family couldn't afford to offend him. Basically, everything was sold to him at a loss.
What the Jiang family has, as long as he likes it, the Jiang family has to sell it to him at a low price. If they don’t sell it, the Jiang family who are officials in the court will be embarrassed.
What the Jiang family didn’t have, they had to look for it. When Ming Yu left, the Jiang family would already shirk it. Seven or eight of the ten items Gou Xi asked for could not be found or bought, and the remaining two or three items would not be found. Raise the price and wait for Gou Xi to bargain.
Even so, Gou Xi is still a hole that cannot be filled.
Outsiders only know that the money from the emperor and the treasury flows continuously to the General's Mansion, and then to the Jiang family, so they all regard the Jiang family as profit-seeking people, and hate them from the bottom of their hearts, but they don't know that the Jiang family is also very troublesome.
If the Jiang family can turn these shortfalls in money into political resources, it’s fine. Except for matters involving their own interests, Pian Gouxi basically doesn’t care about other government affairs, and the Jiang family can use little;
Moreover, the Jiang family are locals. They pay great attention to their reputation and the relationship with the local people. It is impossible for them to let go and do anything wrong.
This put the Jiang family in a dilemma.
Meeting General Pei, Ming Yu didn’t return the box, and asked someone to pretend to be him to stay in the box, and then quietly went to the backyard of the restaurant with someone, oh, yes, this restaurant belongs to the Jiang family.
Ming Yu met the Da Langjun of the Jiang family in the backyard. Obviously, the Jiang family valued this meeting very much. Less than an hour after they received the message, they immediately came to perform the contract.
Jiang Chong saw Ming Yu, immediately got up and saluted, and said in a low voice, "Greetings, Mr. Ming."
Ming pre-returned the gift, "Young Master Jiang, you don't need to be too polite."
The two sat in separate seats, and Ming Yu was also direct, whispering the reason for inviting him, "I also ask Mr. Jiang to help me redeem Zheng Mingzhu."
Jiang Chong's eyes flickered, and he said: "I am willing to help you, but I just want to redeem someone from the General's Mansion. Our Jiang family has to be more cautious, so I want to make sure who this Zheng Mingzhu is? Redemption, or is Governor Zhao wanting redemption?"
"I want to redeem," Ming Yu said, "Zheng Mingzhu was kind to me after entering the mansion. If she had been favored as before, I would never have thought of redeeming her, but I heard that she has fallen out of favor and is living in the mansion." Difficult. The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, and I cannot let my benefactor suffer in vain in the general's mansion."
Jiang Chong felt a little disappointed when he heard this, but he still cheered up and said, "Okay, I will redeem him for my husband."
He was a little hesitant, not knowing how to speak to Ming Yu, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, their Jiang family was the lackeys of the General's Mansion.
Ming Yu seemed to know what he was thinking, and said in a low voice: "Tomorrow, officials from all over the country will basically arrive in Yuncheng. The governor of my family is also interested in officials and generals who have never seen him before. I heard that the restaurant in Mr. Jiang's house is located Best, so I want to book a box..."
Jiang Chong heard it, and immediately said: "Then I will leave my peaches and plums to Governor Zhao. The room is facing the street, and it is big and has the best view. As long as someone passes by the main street, everyone in the room can see it."
He'd better visit too.
Ming responded with a smile.
Jiang Chong breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "At that time, I will ask Mr. Ming to introduce you."
Ming Prediction is also accepted.
Jiang Chong didn't dare to neglect Mingyu's request, and started to operate on the same day. Of course, he didn't come forward for such a thing. Jiang Chong handed over the matter to a clan brother and the steward.
That night, the younger brother of the Jiang clan went with the steward to have a drink with the steward who was bought by the general’s mansion.
Their family is most familiar with the steward of the General's Mansion.
Yesterday we had a temple fair here, and my mother wanted to set up a stall in the temple fair, so I was temporarily called to help, and I couldn’t come back until early in the morning. I was too tired at the time, so I didn’t turn on the computer and asked for leave. Today, I will try my best to make up the three chapters of yesterday
