Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty-Three Scary People
Xu Jingzong walked slowly to the front office. The front door of the front office was also wide open, but it was a place for handling official affairs of the state, not a place for the host's family to welcome guests. The two passed by the main door and walked a few steps forward.
Stopped at the front side door.
The front side door for VIPs to enter and exit had already been opened by the servants. Several neatly dressed male servants held long brooms and symbolically "swept" a path in front of the door. Wang Tong's eldest son Wang Shouwen greeted him with a smile and walked to
Xu Jingzong stood still in front of him, hugged his heart with his hands, bowed and said: "Shouwen has seen Sanlang. He didn't know that Sanlang was coming from afar, so he couldn't go out to greet him. Don't blame Sanlang!"
Xu Jingzong secretly lamented that the etiquette of a thousand-year-old family is indeed very particular. He smiled and bowed down early, saying: "Coming here without telling me is very presumptuous. Please don't laugh at my abruptness!"
The corners of Wang Shouwen's eyes twitched. He remembered his father's explanation and that the strange young man in front of him who claimed to be Wang Jiasanlang might be disguised by the poisonous general. He couldn't help but his heart beat faster. He exhaled slightly and the two of them bowed to each other and saluted.
Cheng, holding hands with each other, Wang Shouwen suppressed the nervousness in his heart and laughed casually and said: "You and I haven't seen each other for more than three years. I didn't expect Sanlang to come to Yongzhou."
After greeting each other, Xu Jingzong accepted the host's invitation and entered the door. He waved away the servants and asked in a low voice: "My father specifically confessed that the Marquis would probably come here secretly and concealed his identity, so I told my younger brother to wait at home at any time in the past few days. My younger brother has already
I sent someone to deliver a message to my father, Lord Marquis, please wait a moment."
"I wonder why Mr. Wang went to see General Yang Hushi?" Xu Jingzong did not admit that he was Wang Junlin, but he did not deny it either. Instead, he handed over his hand again and asked seriously.
Wang Shouwen didn't notice Xu Jingzong's abnormal expression and said, "This little brother doesn't know either. It's better for the Marquis to ask my father later to find out."
The two of them were talking, then took a few steps forward, bypassed a corridor, and sat down to drink tea with the guests of honor in the living room. After a few words, Wang Shouwen finally felt that the guest he welcomed in was not the famous guest.
Qin Anhou, but he had never met Wang Junlin. He was worried about causing unnecessary misunderstandings, so he did not dare to ask questions rashly, so he could only make insinuations.
…
…
There is a three-story attic in the Governor's Mansion. Standing on it, you can overlook most of the city. Usually, only the Governor Wang Tong occasionally comes up to take a look, and the rest is empty. But at this time, Wang Junlin was standing on it.
Wang Junlin seemed to be standing casually, but in fact he was standing in a very clever position. There was a column on the left and a wall on the right. He could just see most of the entire governor's mansion, but the people below the attic could not see him.
When Xu Jingzong was brought in by Wang Shouwen, he saw a servant of the Governor's Mansion running out, heading towards the Marching Commander's Mansion.
Wang Junlin knew that Yu Juluo was now on his way to Kyoto, while the old general Liu Fang, the chief strategist, was recuperating at home. The person in charge of the palace was Yang Hushi, the general of the palace for the time being.
Although Wang Junlin had some friendship with Wang Tong, and even secretly formed an alliance when they were in the capital, and even dealt with Yang Su together. But under the current circumstances, it is absolutely impossible for Wang Junlin to completely trust Wang Tong. After all, Wang Tong came first
He was asked to come to Jincheng to take charge, and then the "sixteen-character" rumor came about. What's more, officials like Wang Tong who come from aristocratic families always put the interests of the family first.
Wang Junlin wouldn't be surprised at all when someone made a deal, so he asked Xu Jingzong to interview him first, but he was still hiding in the dark. As for Xu Jingzong's safety, as long as Wang Junlin was in the dark, there was no need to worry.
An hour later, when the sky was getting dark, Wang Junlin saw a carriage, surrounded by a group of knights, rushing from the direction of the Governor's Mansion. Wang Tong got out of the carriage, and a steward of the Governor's Mansion was already at the door. While waiting, Wang Tong asked the housekeeper something and walked towards the living room where Xu Jingzong was.
The sky was dark at this time. Standing in front of the attic viewing hall, Wang Junlin did not have to worry about anyone seeing him, so he simply walked out, stood on the viewing hall, and looked around the entire Jincheng. When he found that there was no sign of mobilization of soldiers and horses in the Jincheng, he He breathed a long sigh of relief.
In addition, there was no warning from Shen Guang, so it can be initially confirmed that Wang Tong did not collude with the secret enemy.
Of course, this is just the preliminary stage. After Wang Junlin came to this era, there were very few people who he completely trusted, and Wang Tong was definitely not one of them.
With a plan in mind, Wang Junlin jumped down from the attic like a big bird and landed silently on a big tree under the attic.
…
…
Entering the living room, Wang Tong's eyes were as bright as lightning. He looked at Xu Jingzong who stood up to greet him. He looked carefully for a moment, smiled bitterly and said, "The Marquis of Qin An didn't come in person. How can I even suspect this?"
Xu Jingzong did not dare to be negligent, and bowed deeply to Wang Tong and said: "The Marquis has something to do at the moment, so he sent a humble official to discuss some matters with the governor."
Wang Tong sighed, waved his eldest son Wang Shouwen to step down, and then said: "Forget it, sit down! That boy Wang Junlin asked you to come and discuss something with me."
Xu Jingzong was about to speak when he suddenly saw a servant walking in from the door. He said he was a servant because he was wearing the clothes of a servant of the governor's house, but the man had his hands behind his back, his footsteps were silent, and his demeanor was leisurely. He didn't look like a servant at all.
Wang Tong took a sip of tea. He didn't see Xu Jingzong talking for a long time. He looked up and saw Xu Jingzong staring at his left back with a strange look on his face. He was confused and turned to his left with a look of astonishment. At this glance, , but Wang Tong's pupils shrank, as if he had seen a ghost, and he stood up suddenly.
At some point, there was an additional person on the low platform beside the wooden table to his left.
"Who are you? How dare you enter the Governor's Mansion without permission." Wang Tong was startled, his face turned slightly pale, and he shouted sternly.
Naturally, the visitor came through Wang Junlin in disguise. He originally wanted to show his elusiveness in front of Wang Tong, so that Wang Tong would have more scruples and not have any ideas, but he did not expect to frighten Wang Tong. Jump. It's no wonder. Imagine, you didn't hear any sound before, and suddenly there was a person next to you when you turned your head. What kind of scene is this? And although Wang Tong is the governor, he is just a scholar.
Wang Junlin smiled awkwardly, stood up, bowed his hands to Wang Tong, and said: "Your Majesty, Wang Junlin, is paying homage to the Governor. He came a little abruptly, and I hope the Governor will forgive me."
Wang Tong was startled for a moment, smiled bitterly, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and scolded with a smile: "You are the noble Marquis of Qin An in the Sui Dynasty, but you are still acting like this, pretending to be a magician like a magician."
Wang Junlin chuckled, touched his nose, and did not answer.
