In any case, your brand is obviously higher than his, which means your status is higher than his, and that’s enough!
It seemed that nothing was going according to his wishes today, so Xiao Han had no choice but to act like a dead horse, so he bit the bullet and said: "Ahem... As long as the two of us know this, don't make it public...
"
"That's it, that's it!"
After all, it is the first level of officialdom that kills people. Shopkeeper Wang has now become like a small official who is waiting for the superior's instructions. He moves his head up and down as fast as a sewing machine, and he is not afraid of concussion!
He is also scared now. Fortunately, he didn't attack anyone just now, otherwise it would be terrible now. If he drives this young Shangguan out with a broom, wouldn't this leader be very offended?
In my own organization, although I get a lot of benefits, the rules are also very strict. I am only half of the establishment now. If something goes wrong, I don't know how I will die!
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper glanced at Xiao Han secretly. He probably thought that this Shangguan should be easy to talk to, so he quickly asked with a smile: "I was old and blind, and I really didn't see that Shangguan arrived. There was so much offense in his words. I hope you can."
Haihan!! I wonder what Shangguan has to say about this? What happened to my young lady’s marriage?"
"What happened to your lady's marriage? What should I do if your lady marries someone else?"
After slandering for a while, Xiao Han shook his head and looked at the shopkeeper pretending to be very sad: "Hey! This matter is really difficult to explain. By the way, how far has the marriage between your lady and the Marquis of Xiangcheng progressed?
"
"How far has it gone?" When the shopkeeper heard this, he replied without hesitation: "The Hou family of Xiangcheng just sent someone to propose marriage a while ago, and tomorrow is the day of Najib!"
"So soon? Najib tomorrow?" Xiao Han was shocked and asked quickly: "Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't your lady just come home yesterday? What happened recently?"
Shopkeeper Wang glanced at Xiao Han in surprise, and thought to himself: "Shangguan is worthy of being a Shangguan. He knows this information quickly. As soon as the young lady came home, he knew about the back foot!"
But this is absolutely impossible to say! Leaders are always famous and have great magical powers! So the shopkeeper only glanced at Xiao Han, then quickly lowered his head and said: "I'm sorry that my subordinates don't know this very well, and they are also surprised.
, The mistress of the house was not anxious about the young lady’s marriage before, but since the past few days, the matter has suddenly become urgent. Yesterday, when the young lady came home, she had a big fight with the mistress and was locked up in the embroidery building and grounded. "
"Grounded?" Xiao Han was anxious in his heart. Just as he was about to ask again, he met the shopkeeper's probing gaze. His heart trembled, and he immediately suppressed the question and changed his face to a calm look.
"Whether it's grounded or not, these are all Mo Ye. You just mentioned a few days ago, so did any strange people come to the house? Or did anything strange happen?"
Shopkeeper Wang frowned and thought about it, then said: "This, my subordinates don't know. The main reason is that the past few days were the day for reconciliation at home. At that time, I was in the shop every day, so naturally I couldn't take care of things at home, and then I didn't
No one said anything, so..."
"Yes, this guy doesn't know anything about it." Xiao Han patted his head and felt a little pain in his brain. He really wanted the shopkeeper to take him to Xue's house to have a look, but he was afraid that he would be recognized as soon as he entered.
If you get beaten with a stick sometimes, you will lose your face...
Not getting any useful information, and not willing to go all the way in vain, Xiao Han's mind turned around and he suddenly remembered what he had just said to scare the shopkeeper, and an idea came to his mind.
"Come here..." Xiao Han waved to the shopkeeper.
"Yes..." Shopkeeper Wang didn't know why and hurried over to get close to Xiao Han.
"Come closer! Come over here!"
"oh……!"
When the shopkeeper leaned over with his ears raised, Xiao Han whispered to him: "When you go back today, remember to tell your mistress that you must not agree to this marriage! Otherwise, there will be a big disaster!"
Xiao Han has said this word of disaster several times, but at first the shopkeeper didn't take it seriously at all. But as Xiao Han's identity was confirmed, the shopkeeper had no choice but to believe it! He quickly asked in a low voice
: "A big disaster? What a big disaster, please let me know clearly!"
"The Marquis of Xiangcheng is an enemy!"
Xiao Han gritted his teeth and uttered this sentence. He was just trying to break the bad news of the Hou family in Xiangcheng. Anyway, there is no slander in this era. My mouth is on my face. I can say whatever I like!
However, Xiao Han's words sounded like thunder in the ears of the shopkeeper, who was so shocked that he opened his mouth and couldn't even close it for a while!
Xiao Han gritted his teeth and said this, regardless of the shopkeeper who was in a panic in his heart, and continued to talk to himself: "I am investigating this matter. If this young master and Xue Shou were not as close as brothers, there would never have been anything like this.
Let me tell you a little bit of news! Moreover, this news can only be known to you and your mistress, and at most to Xue Pan! If someone else gets wind of it! Hum hum..."
The shopkeeper was already stunned by the word "Zi Enemy". He still had doubts about the authenticity of this statement. He could only nod his head and swore that he would never reveal a word!
My mother-in-law is an enemy! As the saying goes, it means eating the inside out! If a commoner touches these two words, he will die miserably! If a nobleman touches the two words, he will be executed. This is all trivial. How can this be a marriage? This is obvious
It’s an invitation from the Lord of Hell!
However, despite being shocked, Shopkeeper Wang did not forget to keep an eye on him. Is what Shangguan said true? How could he have access to such secret information at such a young age? And he even came to me specifically to tell me! Could it be that he was still so young?
Is he really a good friend of Master Xue? Because apart from this explanation, this kind of thing will not do him any good. No one will bother with something that has no benefit at all...
Hey, forget it, this kind of thing, I would rather believe that it exists than that it doesn’t exist!
The shopkeeper had been sitting in the quiet room since Xiao Han left. It wasn't until the shop assistant came to knock on the door that he stood up tremblingly and ordered the shopkeeper to close the door immediately. He stopped doing business and rode a horse that he didn't usually work on.
The fast horse is riding fast, rushing towards the master's house!
He hurriedly entered the house, threw away the reins from the servants who were waiting on him, and shopkeeper Wang ran towards the mistress's residence with a sullen face! Soon, an angry female voice came from the Xue family mansion: "Zi Zi
Enemy?! Is this Marquis of Xiangcheng crazy?! Old Wang, is this news reliable?!"
Shopkeeper Wang, who was standing in the center of the room, had a bitter look on his face. He cupped his hands and said to the lady in front of him: "Madam, keep your voice down, keep your voice down, if others hear you, this will be a huge disaster!"
"Okay, okay..." The noble lady was obviously panicked at this time. After hearing what Shopkeeper Wang said, she came to her senses and quickly looked around. Fortunately, Shopkeeper Wang had already taken people there when he came.
All screened out!
"How did you get the news? Is this true?!" The lady fell weakly on her chair, as if she couldn't believe it, and asked Shopkeeper Wang again.
Shopkeeper Wang didn't know how to answer, so he could only say to her: "Madam, don't ask where this news came from, but there is no smoke without fire. Even if the news is nine percent false and one percent true, we don't dare to gamble with the entire Xue family.
ah!"
The noble lady nodded. Shopkeeper Wang was right. Regardless of whether this matter is true or false, it cannot be taken lightly!
"Old Wang, what do you think we should do about this? I have already notified the Xiangcheng Hou family, and they will come tomorrow. What should we do about this?"
Shopkeeper Wang saw that his mistress was already panicking, so he had to make up his mind and said: "What should I do? Forgive me for talking too much, madam, no matter what the final outcome of this matter is, I feel that now is definitely not the right time to talk about getting married! Tomorrow
When they come, no matter what they say, my wife can't agree hastily, just postpone it first. Anyway, if the marriage contract is not signed, then the Xiangcheng Hou family has nothing to do with our family. Even if this happens, it will not happen.
It can’t be found in our house!”
When Xue's mother heard this, she finally had some assurance and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, let's push it first and talk about it later, but... what should I do with Shu'er? The prophecy said by the Shinto man that day..."
Hearing Xue's mother murmuring about the word "Shinto", shopkeeper Wang's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked: "What prophecy? Shinto? Why don't I know this?"
"This..." Xue's mother also knew that she had accidentally let it slip. It was too late to deny it at this time. Seeing shopkeeper Wang hesitating again and again, Xue's mother gritted her teeth and recounted what happened in the past few days.
When I told him about it, Shopkeeper Wang felt chills in his heart.
After Xue's mother finished telling the whole story, she stood quietly for a long time, and shopkeeper Wang solemnly said to Xue's mother: "Hey! According to what I see, there may be something fishy about this matter. Madam, don't worry about it now, I will put it aside tomorrow!
I’ll go* to discuss it and talk about anything else!”
Xiao Han didn't know anything about the secret things the shopkeeper said at home. He was rushing to Changsun Wuji's home with the fool Xiaodong.
Strategies never exist alone, and Xiao Han never expects that one or two sentences can turn things around. Moreover, these words were made up by him and are baseless lies!
He only hopes that these lies can slow down the process of this matter, so that he can have more time to get rid of the current predicament, and in order to get rid of the predicament, he has to start asking outsiders for help!
There is no shame in asking for help. No one in this world is powerful enough to solve everything by himself, not even the emperor. This visit to Chang'an also made him realize:
In the elite class, it is almost useless for a person to fight alone. Just like now, if you want to smear everything, you have to do it yourself if you want to get some information!
I went to tea shops to eavesdrop a little, and went to other people's shops to lie a little. Not to mention how little information I got, but if this scene was seen by someone who knew me, Xiao Han, the Marquis, would probably never be able to regain his dignity.
Therefore, he must now look for foreign aid! In Chang'an now, Xiao Han only has one foreign aid, and that is Changsun Wuji, who he does not want to have a close relationship with.
