Zhou Wen sighed deeply. While he felt more and more guilty, he was also thinking about his future and where to go. No one knew whether Wang Junlin could defeat the Li family in Longxi this time.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and his butler's voice came from outside: "Master, there are guests outside!"
"Didn't I say that I won't see anyone?" Zhou Wen said angrily.
"Sir, this is the imperial envoy."
"Wang Junlin!" Zhou Wen was stunned for a moment.
Wang Junlin stood in front of the steps, staring at the dark clouds in the sky. The dark clouds covered the sky, and there was no trace of the stars and the moon. There was already a trace of spring rain in the sky. Although the weather was still a little chilly, the warmth of spring was also obvious.
The door behind him opened, and a series of apologies came from Zhou Wen: "I didn't know that the imperial envoy was coming, and Zhou Wen missed the way to greet you. I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"
Wang Junlin turned around, looked at Zhou Wen and said, "I heard that Lord Zhou was once a staff member of His Majesty's side before he founded the country."
The guilt and sadness in Zhou Wen's eyes flashed away, and he bowed to Wang Junlin, sighed, and said: "Your Majesty, please don't mention the current matter anymore. I am so ashamed of Your Majesty!"
"I don't want to mention it again, but Zhou Juncheng seems to have forgotten His Majesty's original intention of letting you come to Longxi to serve as an official. This makes me quite disappointed."
Zhou Wen's expression changed, but then he heard something in Wang Junlin's words. He thought for a moment and then said: "It's not a place to talk outside. Your Majesty, please come to the study to talk!"
"Please, Zhou Juncheng!"
"please!"
Wang Junlin followed Zhou Wen to his study and sat down. A servant brought two cups of tea.
The two exchanged a few words, and Zhou Wen felt a little uneasy, so the topic turned to business and said, "I wonder why the imperial envoy came to my office?"
Wang Junlin pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: "Can't Zhou Junchen guess why I came here today?"
Zhou Wen nodded and said: "I understand in my heart, but I still ask the imperial envoy to give me some advice."
Zhou Wen's answer made Wang Junlin slightly happy. He knew that he had made the right move to come to Zhou Wen tonight. He immediately cheered up and said solemnly: "I know that Mr. Zhou doesn't want to do things for His Majesty, but he has a reason.
It's in Li's hands. I can help Mr. Zhou solve this matter, but Mr. Zhou must cooperate with me."
"Do you mean what Marquis Qin An said?" Zhou Wenteng stood up with a look of ecstasy on his face. The fact that his son raped and killed a common girl fell into the hands of the Li family has always been his heartache. If Wang Junlin can help him solve this matter, he will
If you no longer have any scruples, you can let go of your hands and feet and be loyal.
"Lord Zhou, do you think I, Wang Junlin, will break his promise?" Wang Junlin said seriously.
Zhou Wen thought for a while, then made up his mind, stood up and said: "Marquis Qin An, please come with me, I will take you to meet someone."
"who?"
"Marquis Qin An will find out if he comes with me."
Zhou Wen and Wang Junlin walked towards the east courtyard and walked to a small courtyard. There were two big men standing at the entrance of the courtyard, one on the left and one on the right, extra vigilant.
"How is that man?"
"Reporting to the master, it's very quiet!"
Zhou Wen nodded and led Wang Junlin into the courtyard.
In the yard, a three- or four-year-old boy was happily playing with a bamboo horse. A young woman was squatting next to him. Suddenly someone walked in. The woman took the child into her arms and watched Wang Junlin warily. On the steps at the door
Sitting there was a scholar in his thirties, wearing a scholar's shirt, with a gloomy look on his face. When he saw Zhou Wen and Wang Junlin coming in, he quickly stood up and led his family to salute Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen picked up the bamboo horse and handed it to the child, smiled at the scholar and said, "Tang Sanbi, this is your best chance to survive."
He pointed at Wang Junlin and said: "This is the Imperial Envoy, General Qin Anhou Wang."
The scholar known as Tang Sanbi was stunned for a moment, and then said ecstatically: "I join the imperial mission, sir, and am willing to serve you. I only hope that you can keep my family alive."
Wang Junlin glanced at Zhou Wen in confusion, and Zhou Wen smiled lightly and said: "This person's name is Tang Zhongxiang, and his name is Tang Sanbi, because he is good at imitating other people's handwriting, and the imitation is almost exactly the same."
Wang Junlin immediately remembered that Shen Guang had inquired about the news. Liu Fangyang and the Li family in Longxi might impeach him in the name of Zhang Dehong, and then Zhang Dehong was killed. Obviously the memorial that imitated Zhang Dehong's handwriting was written by this person, but it was obvious that Zhang Fangyang wanted to kill someone and silence him. As a result, Zhou Wen rescued him in advance.
Wang Junlin ordered Tang Sanbi to sit down at the small table, casually took a letter of his from his arms, handed it to him and said: "This is my letter, Mr. Tang, imitate it, and I will take a look."
"yes!"
Tang Sanbi spread out Wang Junlin's letter, looked at the handwriting carefully, and gestured with his hand in the air for a while, then picked up the pen and stroked it quickly, almost in one breath.
After finishing writing, he put down his pen and said with a smile: "The villain has shown his embarrassment!"
Zhou Wen presented the letter to Wang Junlin. Wang Junlin was stunned. If the ink on it was not dry, he would have thought it was his own letter. He compared his original letter carefully and couldn't help but be amazed. It was exactly the same. Even he himself was surprised. Can't tell the difference.
"Yes, it is indeed as good as its name."
Tang Sanbi suddenly fell to his knees on the ground, kowtowed and begged: "I am willing to serve the Imperial Envoy. I only ask that the Imperial Envoy can save the villain's family."
Wang Junlin laughed and said: "I already know about you. Now that you have met me, no one can hurt your family anymore. Well, I do lack a few civil servants under me. You can follow me from now on." ! Organize the paperwork for me and bring your wife and daughter with you, I won’t treat you badly.”
Tang Sanbi was overjoyed. Not only did he get a good job, but he also wouldn't be silenced. This was the most important thing.
"I am willing to serve the Imperial Envoy!" Tang Sanbi knelt down to express his loyalty to Wang Junlin.
Wang Junlin smiled and said, "Okay, get ready and follow me later!"
After saying that, Wang Junlin and Zhou Wen left the small courtyard. Zhou Wen smiled slightly and said: "As long as this person is in hand, Liu Fangyang and Li Zongxian's conspiracy to use Zhang Dehong has failed."
Wang Junlin nodded, which seemed to agree with Zhou Wen's words, and Tang Sanbi was indeed a talent, and he might be of great use if he stayed with him in the future.
Wang Junlin remembered the real purpose of coming to see Zhou Wen today, laughed, and said: "Actually, I came to see Zhou Juncheng for another important matter."
At this time, Zhou Wen had completely decided to obey the king's instructions. He bowed respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, just give me your orders!"
"I hope Zhou Juncheng can take charge of the overall situation of Longxi from tomorrow."
Zhou Wen was shocked all over and felt a chill in his heart. He understood what Wang Junlin meant and nodded slowly, "I obey your orders!"
