"Mr. Wangge, I am here today to discuss a deal with you." Xiao Wenjun strolled leisurely in the court, calmly and elegantly, and sat down at the guest seat minding his own business.
This move was a bit rude to the Wang family, which prides itself on being of a clean family. But Mr. Wang Ge did not think so, and instead showed some approval in his eyes. This calm demeanor was worthy of the title of general of the Xiao family.
"Tea!" Mr. Wangge ordered and sat back on the throne. His face was solemn and he said bluntly, "Princess, considering your strength, what qualifications do you have to talk to me?"
After Ming Jing brought the tea, he quickly left, closed the door softly, and removed all the people waiting outside the study.
"I wonder if the weight of the head of the Xiao family is enough?" Xiao Wenjun's face remained calm, and her voice was cold and unhurried. But the bare hands clenched into fists in her sleeves betrayed the nervousness in her heart.
"Enough is not enough. You and I both know the current situation of the Xiao family. After the death of General Zhenxi, no Xiao family member took over, and he did not even inherit the title of Prince Lanling. If we expect the prodigal son to wander around the flowers,
, the Xiao family will be finished sooner or later!"
Wangge's old fingers tapped on the table, tapping rhythmically, and when he opened his mouth, he pointed directly at the vital point, without any mercy, and continued: "What's more, the princess is a woman and seems to be in charge of the Xiao family, but I heard that,
Mr. Xiao doesn’t approve of you!”
"You don't need to worry about the internal affairs of the Xiao family. When the time comes, I, the princess, will clean up the Xiao family."
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Wang Ge felt that the girl in front of him had a dominating aura, like the rising sun, even more so than that of Mrs. Xiao back then. The joy in his eyes gradually became thicker, and he tapped his finger on the table.
Home never disappoints.
As long as the Xiao family remains standing, the Western Territory will be stable. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the magic needle of the Western Territory. However, in recent years, the Lanling King has declined, and the border has been peaceful for fifty years, but the people in the court have forgotten it.
"Stop knocking, it's so noisy!" Xiao Wenjun was not affected by Wang Ge's old aura at all. On the contrary, he had a tendency to overpower him.
"Hahaha, if it's just like this, it still doesn't weigh much."
Tapping on the table is a common tactic used by Mr. Wangge during negotiations. The purpose is to disturb the other party's mind. Being exposed by Xiao Wenjun in person like this, I can't help but feel a little surprised. This girl is too straightforward, but I appreciate it very much!
"Along with the position of Minister of Household Affairs, is it enough?" Xiao Wenjun also laughed, his voice was clear and clear, without any pretense.
"I am destined to win, Minister of Household Affairs. You have no one in the court. Even if you can make the matter bigger, you alone can't eat this piece of fat!" Mr. Wang Ge is indeed a master of negotiation, even if he admires the other party in his heart.
, we must also maximize our own interests.
"You also know that the prerequisite is to make the matter a big deal, but whether the matter will be a big deal or not depends entirely on the mood of this princess." Xiao Wenjun still had a smile on his face, as if he had a plan in mind.
"What do you want to talk about, Princess?" Mr. Wang Ge never thought of rejecting this deal. It was just a habit of an old official in the officialdom and he wanted to get greater benefits.
Wang Ge knew instantly what Xiao Wenjun meant. If the matter was too small, there would be no fuse, and the Yongchang Marquis affair would have to wait for another opportunity. The longer the delay, the more variables there would be.
Moreover, the eldest prince is not a vegetarian, so a quick solution is the best strategy!
"I want a chance to meet the saint." Xiao Wenjun secretly relaxed a little, and the rest of the things were easier to handle.
Hearing this, Mr. Wangge's eyebrows jumped, what a loud tone! He has been in the officialdom for many years, and he has never seen such a person who doesn't follow the routine. "The princess is very calculating. Do you know how much involvement I have to bear in this business without capital?"
"
"Old Wangge knows very well that what I want is not much. The position of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance is inestimable. Pull out the carrot and bring it out of the mud. From now on, the Ministry of Finance will clean it up, so that you can not only place your own people, but also
If the treasury can be filled, His Majesty’s Sacred Heart will surely be happy!”
"This is a sure-profit deal. Does Mr. Ge still think I want more?" Xiao Wenjun finished speaking with a smile on his face, waiting for the other party's reply.
Mr. Wang Ge's eyes narrowed and he looked at Xiao Wenjun with an inquiring and sharp look. This woman was more extraordinary than he imagined. She was an extraordinary woman in the backyard. Her ability to understand the current situation and strategize was better than that of most men.
She calmly met Mr. Wang Ge's sharp eyes. The blood in Xiao Wenjun's body was stagnant for a moment. The next second her expression became more determined. This marriage must be canceled as soon as possible!
She is also betting that after knowing her edge, the King of Gambling will not break her wings, but will recognize her abilities more and cooperate with her with confidence.
"Okay! Very good!" Mr. Wang Ge laughed loudly. How long had it been before he met such an interesting junior? He was straightforward and not secretive, which was to his liking.
"This matter also requires the involvement of the Minister of Punishment, because there will definitely be considerable people involved on the Third Prince's side." Xiao Wenjun was overjoyed, and the smile on his face became much more sincere.
"A lion fights a rabbit with all his strength. I have my own arrangements. The princess just wants to make things worse." Mr. Wang Ge said in an arrogant tone, opened the door and ordered outside, "Go and invite the young master to the study."
There is no one in the officialdom who is not a human spirit. Wangge Lao, who is in a high position, is naturally a human spirit among human beings. His son was put into solitary confinement yesterday, and today Xiao Wenjun came to the door. The matter is almost settled.
There was no need to hold him, so he let him go.
Because Mingyuan was caught by Ming Jing as soon as he came back, and Ming Xiu was imprisoned together, he casually recruited a boy who didn't know the truth to invite Wang Jiuyuan.
Wang Jiuyuan was tied up into a rice dumpling at this time, and there were several masters staring at him eagerly. It was impossible to escape.
The boy reported all the way, and when he saw Wang Jiuyuan, he was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth.
Seeing this, Wang Jiuyuan asked: "You said that my father invited me to the study, did you say anything?"
"The elder has not made it clear." The boy then remembered to close his chin and said in confusion.
"Is there anyone else in the study?" Wang Jiuyuan asked as he untied the hemp rope.
"Princess Lanling came to visit Mr. Ge today and is currently discussing matters in the study."
"Princess Lanling?!" Wang Jiuyuan suddenly felt his eyes darken. What rank was his father's? Wen Junhe would definitely suffer! "How long has it been since Princess Lanling arrived?"
"It's been about an hour..." The boy became even more confused, but still said honestly.
"It's broken!" Wang Jiuyuan ignored the rope that was not completely untied on his body, and the sweetness that had just risen in his heart was instantly extinguished, and he used Qinggong in a hurry and rushed towards the study.
"Master, wait a minute, little man!" The young man had a sad face and hurriedly followed.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the study, hearty laughter came from inside. Wang Jiuyuan was a little surprised. He took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
"Come in." Mr. Wangge's angry voice sounded.
Wang Jiuyuan entered the room, and they were indeed chatting happily. But when Mr. Wang Ge's eyes moved to him, he saw the wrinkles in his robes, and his anxiety was written on his face. The smile on his face was clean and serious.
