Chapter 95: Muddy the water

"Father, the matter has been roughly clarified. Gu Haoran suddenly asks for trouble. For Jiang Fan... I'm afraid it's just an unintentional disaster. For our own interests, we must also stop Gu Haoran. If possible, it is best to

Jiang Fan protects them, at least on the surface, so that Gu Haoran and Gu Yanyan don't dare to act unscrupulously."

Zhou He came to the courtyard where King Wu Zhou Di lived. After entering the house and meeting his father, he said seriously.

King Wu Zhou Di looked surprised, looked in the direction of the bedroom, and motioned for Zhou He to accompany him out of the house.

Strolling in the yard, he said softly: "Your mother and concubine have been sleeping more and more lightly recently. If you make the slightest movement, you may be awakened, and then you will be unable to fall back asleep for the whole night, which is really worrying.

"

"Is there nothing that Divine Doctor Liu can do?"

Zhou He asked with a frown.

"Hey, what Doctor Liu means is that there is nothing wrong with your mother-in-law's body. The reason why she is always unable to sleep peacefully is entirely due to a mental and mental problem. There is no other way except for recuperation. Let's not talk about this. Let's talk about Gu in detail.

Haoran’s question. Why does Gu Haoran’s dealing with that Jiang Fan involve our interests?”

Zhou Di shook his head and sighed. After saying a few words, he waved his hand slightly irritably.

"Father, do you still remember that we discovered not long ago that Gu Yanzhi wanted to secretly buy the land in Linjia Village not far outside the city?"

Zhou He asked.

"Of course, Gu Yan has ulterior motives. The place is too close to Heyang. It doesn't even take half an hour for a horse to reach Heyang. Moreover, the terrain is very special, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack. Once there is a simple transformation there,

It doesn't take long at all to turn the entire Lin Village into a simple military camp."

Zhou Di snorted coldly, and then said: "If there is an elite soldier hidden among them, given the terrain of Linjia Village, it is almost impossible to find out the actual strength of the army. When the time comes... once there is a change in Heyang, this elite soldier will be

It may become a force that affects the situation of the war."

"That's right, father, this Jiang Fan and the two people beside him are from Linjia Village."

Zhou He nodded and said.

"What? Are they from Linjia Village? How come there are ninth-grade experts in Linjia Village?"

Zhou Di looked surprised.

"This is unclear at the moment. There will be plenty of time to investigate in the future. Let's talk about Gu Haoran first. Gu Yanzhi wanted to buy the entire Linjia Village, but was rejected by the family with the most land in Linjia Village, and the refusal was completely ignored.

There is so much room that even if another family with a large amount of land is willing to sell it, it doesn't make any sense."

Zhou He continued.

"Yes, for Gu Yanzhi, if his purpose of buying the land is what we think, then he must buy the entire Linjia Village. Just because Gu Yanzhi's idea of ​​buying the land was directly rejected, we

That’s why you didn’t intervene. What? Gu Haoran is dealing with this Jiang Fan for the sake of land?”

Zhou Di asked with a frown.

"I guess that's the case, but there are too many involved, so I didn't tell Jiang Fan thoroughly. Therefore, many situations can only be speculated and I can't directly question Jiang Fan."

"I have actually been paying attention to the matter in Linjia Village. It has not rained for more than three months near Heyang City. The severe drought has almost eliminated the production of nearby fields, and Linjia Village has also been seriously affected."

"As far as I know, Gu Yanzhi took advantage of the severe drought to find another family in Linjia Village who was willing to sell the land, and promised a very high land purchase price, on the condition that... the entire Lin family must be sold at once

All the land in the village was bought.”

Having said this, Zhou He paused intentionally, letting his father digest the content, and then continued: "The family who is willing to sell their land will use this severe drought to sell their land to the family who is unwilling to sell it.

Making threats because the entire Linjia Village is extremely short of food."

"This is why Gu Haoran wants to deal with Jiang Fan. Jiang Fan... solved the food problem in Linjia Village. Since there is no longer a shortage of food, the family who is unwilling to sell the land will of course have no reason to sell the land."

An expression of surprise appeared on Zhou Di's face, and he asked curiously: "Jiang Fan solved the food problem in Linjia Village? He is a scholar... and he also knows how to farm?"

A strange expression suddenly appeared on Zhou He's face. He glanced at his father and said with a slight hesitation, "He...should not understand farm work."

"I don't understand? How to solve the food problem?"

The cycle gets even weirder.

"This...father, Jiang Fan sold a poem to Qian Rushan for a hundred guan. Later, he made two hundred guan from the Lu family in the south of the city by writing poems and betting. At the Fujiang Garden Poetry Recital that night,

In order for Jiang Fan to participate, I may have paid a reward of hundreds of dollars."

Zhou Henana continued: "The food in Linjia Village is purchased directly from Heyang City. The money used to purchase food should be obtained in this way."

Listening to his son's explanation, Zhou Di couldn't help but look blank.

After a long pause, Zhou Di took a deep breath and said with a mixture of laughter and laughter: "I thought he was just selling poems for fun, but I didn't expect that he actually made a living from it?! A man who was considered a poet by the masters

The most amazing person in the Great Zhou Dynasty is actually such a philistine? If those old masters found out about this, wouldn’t they all be pissed to death?”

"Not only does Jiang Fan make a living by selling poems, he also likes to write poems and curse people. Father, you also know what happened in Fujiang Garden on the night of the Reunion Festival."

Zhou He also shook his head with a wry smile, and then said: "By the way, after the kid figured it out just now, he made a joke with Jiang Fan and asked Jiang Fan to write a poem that the kid liked, and the kid came forward.

Help him, father, do you want to know what kind of poem he made?"

"Writing poetry again? What kind of poetry? I shouldn't have scolded you too, right?"

Zhou Di asked with a smile.

"That's not true. I told him that I like poems that are more detached and free-spirited. As a result, he made one for me on the spot."

Zhou He did not show off, and after a simple explanation, he said directly: "The house is in a human environment, and there is no noise of carriages and horses. How can I ask you? I am far away and am biased. I am picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, and I see you leisurely.

Nanshan. The mountain atmosphere is getting better day by day, and the birds are flying back and forth. There is a true meaning in this, I want to discern... I have forgotten to say it."

Zhou Di's eyes lit up and he murmured: "The heart is far away and you are biased? The heart is far away... and you are biased! What a person who is far away and biased! This Jiang Fan is indeed a strange person! Even if there is no incident in Linjia Village, just looking at

All his poems must be preserved by Jiang Fan!"

"Yes, my father, I think so too. To be able to write such poems, Jiang Fan... has great ambitions and great talents!"

Zhou He said with a smile.

"Then go. In addition, you said that you want to protect Jiang Fan... But listening to this poem, I suddenly had a new idea. Doesn't he want to be 'far away and biased'? Then let's

Just give him a chance to live in a human environment!"

Zhou Di's eyes flickered and he said in a deep voice.

"My father means..."

"Didn't the position of Heyang City Lieutenant just become vacant? It's our Prince Wu's request to arrange Jiang Fan there. If Gu Yan has any objections, just ask him to come to me."

"Ah?! Isn't this... inappropriate?"

Zhou He looked shocked.

"There's nothing inappropriate. The City Guards Mansion is a pool of stagnant water. Let's take this opportunity to try... to stir it up."

"Yes...Father...I'll make arrangements for the child now."
