On this day, I met Jiang Yuhan by chance on Zhuque Street. Jiang Yuhan, also known as Qiguan, was a famous character promoted by King Zhongshun.
There were rumors in the capital that he was King Zhongshun's favorite, but Wang Tingxuan knew that was not the case. Those rumors about King Zhongshun at that time were just for self-protection. After all, no one could have guessed that the least favored King Zhongyong could ascend the throne.
Jiang Yuhan relied on the reputation of King Zhongshun to get along well with the rich and powerful in the capital.
"Master Wang, why do you have time to come to the restaurant today?"
Wang Tingxuan smiled and said: "It's nothing, I have nothing to do today, I'm just wandering around the capital. You don't have to be so polite, just call me Tingxuan."
Jiang Yuhan said with a smile: "This is my honor. Tingxuan, I have made a few new friends. If you don't mind, how about meeting them with me."
Jiang Yuhan's friends were probably Feng Ziying and others recorded in the book. It was nothing, and Wang Tingxuan did not refuse.
In fact, just as Wang Tingxuan guessed, those partying with Jiang Yuhan were Feng Ziying, Wei Ruolan and others.
Speaking of which, they are also from the Dragon Guards, but they bought this background from Dai Quan, with a quota of 5,000 taels of silver and a fifth-grade official position. Apart from being nice to hear, they have no use whatsoever.
The reason why Dai Quan dared to do this was because of the tacit approval of the emperor. Many noble families have many heirs, most of whom are concubines. There is only one title in the family, which is not enough.
Despite the Emperor's high tolerance for nobles, it is not easy to obtain a title. In order to gain a good reputation, donating money to obtain a spot in the Dragon Guard has become a good way out.
Anyway, these powerful children neither knew how to work as errands, nor did they care about their salary. They happened to meet an emperor who was crazy about money, and the two of them hit it off.
Dragon Guards like them are just used to scare the people. In fact, they don't even have a salary, and they often give gifts to Dai Quan.
While Wang Tingxuan was sizing them up, Feng Ziying and others were also sizing up Wang Tingxuan. Many people were very envious of his sudden rise, and even more laughed at him.
Just look at the money the emperor made through those few recipes and you will know that for such a business, Wang Tingxuan would only be replaced by a fourth-grade official, and there would not be much other benefits.
If a family like theirs had such a recipe, they would never hand it over stupidly.
Wang Tingxuan was not very familiar with them, so he didn't say much. They didn't come out and said anything in front of Wang Tingxuan. From the oiran of Li Chun Yuan to the party of King Beijing, they didn't know anything about it.
He said it covertly, which made Wang Tingxuan a little embarrassed.
Suddenly, Jiang Yuhan said to Feng Ziying and others: "Don't you want to get rich? The best business in the capital now is glass and wool. These are Brother Wang's ideas. If you ask for his consent, you can get rich at the King's place.
Take a piece of the pie.”
When Wang Tingxuan heard this, he immediately became angry. This Jiang Yuhan was too imprudent. These two businesses belonged to the emperor. Not to mention the ministers of the court, not many members of the royal family could get involved in them.
No wonder it is recorded in the book that Jiang Yuhan escaped from Prince Zhongshun's palace through a fool like Jia Baoyu. He really didn't know whether he would live or die. If Prince Zhongshun let him go, it can only be said that he was destined to be lucky.
Feng Ziying used Jiang Yuhan's words and asked: "Brother Wang, I wonder if you can help me to say a word to Prince Zhongshun."
This is definitely impossible. Wang Tingxuan has no friendship with them.
Wang Tingxuan said: "Everyone really thinks highly of me. These two businesses are in the hands of the prince and the court, and no one else is allowed to interfere. To be honest, I came out today to find a shop and see if there is anything
A profitable business.”
Wei Ruolan asked doubtfully: "Don't you have any part in these two businesses?"
Wang Tingxuan said: "The emperor has already rewarded me with a fourth-grade official and a house. How can I still be greedy for a share of it?"
Fortunately, there was no old fox-like figure among them, nor did they pursue Wang Tingxuan.
The Zhou Rui family's status in Mrs. Wang's heart is still not small. A few days after Leng Zixing was arrested, Shuntian Mansion received a post from the Jia family. If it had been the case, the Shuntian Mansion would have given the Jia family some face.
But this time, the little privilege of the Jia family didn't work for him at all. Not only did it not work, the Shuntian Mansion didn't even reveal any useful information. Zhou Rui's family made a lot of money by asking their grandfather to sue their grandmother, and even the old man
I don't even know what to say.
Zhou Rui and his wife were really worried and angry. If it hadn't happened, they wouldn't have known that their stupid daughter didn't even know where the family money was. Now, whether it's for their daughter or for them,
family property, Zhou Rui and his wife must find a way to rescue Leng Zixing.
Zhou Rui's family was crying and thinking about what to do.
Zhou Rui was upset by her and said: "Now I have to ask my wife to see if I can get the empress to send a message. Shuntian Mansion can not give face to Rongguo Mansion, but it must not not give face to the empress."
The Zhou Rui family's eyes lit up and then disappeared in an instant. As Mrs. Wang's confidants, how could they not know Mrs. Wang's character? Not to mention whether Mrs. Wang agreed or not, even if she agreed, the two of them would have to pay a lot.
of blood.
What's more, Mrs. Wang will never agree to let the empress come forward, and the Zhou Rui family knows this very well.
"My wife won't ask anything."
Zhou Rui also knew, but besides Mrs. Wang, who else could they ask for. After searching through the relatives of the Jia family, they found two people who could come forward, Wang Ziteng and Lin Ruhai.
Since Wang Ziteng was not in the capital, he had no choice but to turn to Lin Ruhai.
Zhou Rui's family still felt unsure and said, "My wife won't agree either."
Zhou Rui said: "Besides the Lin family, who else can come forward to help? Nowadays, the eunuchs in the palace are coming more and more frequently, and my wife is overwhelmed. Take the three thousand taels of silver and go and beg your wife."
"
The Zhou Rui family knew that even if Mrs. Wang agreed, she would not come forward in person and would most likely have to ask Wang Xifeng to come forward.
"I'll take another five hundred taels. My wife will probably ask the second grandma to go to the Lin family."
Zhou Rui replied: "Take it, as long as the people come back, sooner or later you can make money back."
The Zhou Rui family members smiled apologetically in front of Mrs. Wang and said, "Madam, those people from Shuntian Mansion didn't pay any attention to the posts in our house. It's obvious that they don't take the empress seriously."
Mrs. Wang closed her eyes and held the Buddhist beads in her hand, but her heart was not so calm. Now the post of Rongguo Mansion represents not only the face of Rongguo Mansion, but also the face of the empress.
Now that Shuntian Mansion has disgraced the Empress, Mrs. Wang does not dare to move, and she is unwilling to stand up for Zhou Rui's family.
Zhou Rui's family calmly put the banknote in front of Mrs. Wang and said: "I shouldn't bother Mrs. Wang anymore, but now that I only have one daughter, I really can't bear it. The other one is not angry on behalf of the empress and obeys.
Tianfu is obviously trying to offend the empress. I guess this may be the work of other empresses."
"Madam, no matter what happens now, we have to save face for our empress."
This sentence has touched Mrs. Wang's heart, but how to save face for the empress?
Zhou Rui's family member continued: "My intention is to find a way to get Mr. Lin to come forward. In this way, I can not only save the queen's face, but also tie Mr. Lin to the queen."
