This is already the third time the maid has served tea.
Xu Qing looked at King Xian and said, "My lord, why are you here?"
The Xian King looked at Xu Qing and said: "I asked you to divert the attention of the ministers in the court. How come you also diverted the attention of the scholars in the capital?"
Xu Qing looked at the King Xian and asked expectantly: "This is a mission that has been exceeded, right? Is there any additional reward?"
King Xian glanced at Xu Qing: "What the hell!"
Xu Qing: "You are a relative of the emperor, shouldn't you speak more politely?"
The Wise King: "Add a false compliment!"
Xu Qing: "..."
After the wise king took a sip of tea, he put down the water cup, looked at Xu Qing and said: "What you said and done has gone beyond what I originally imagined for you. It is true that the scholars in the capital were inspired, but not all of them came from those people."
Most of the officials who have been corrupted come from famous scholars in the capital! Moreover, there are also upright officials in the court to join you."
"Especially in our country, there are several great Confucian scholars who have practiced the way of saints and sages all their lives. They are quite prestigious among the literati in the world. Even if I see you, I will give you some face. Now they have been living in seclusion for many years.
The finger is pointed at you."
"I really didn't expect you to write this article on paper. In this situation, even if I want to help you end it, I can't do anything. Now it's not just you Xu Qing who has a bad reputation in the capital, but also the entire Guoshang
hospital!"
"You are really capable of drawing the entire capital's attention to the Guoshang Yuan. The result I want is to be able to release and contain, but the current scene is overwhelming! This is not what I want.
the result of!"
Xu Qing smiled and said: "Since I dare to do this, I will naturally have the means to disperse the public opinion. It depends on when the prince wants to disperse."
This scene was something he had expected. After all, he was the first to spread the news about soft paper and its functions to the scholar circles in the capital.
When it comes to those who are behind the scenes, on a first-come, first-served basis, those corrupt officials with impure motives will be ranked behind Xu Qing!
In every dynasty, there are some corrupt Confucians who have old ideas but are virtuous and respected. They will lead scholars to oppose themselves. Of course Xu Qing can do it.
Now that he can calculate it, Xu Qing is even less likely to put himself in danger. If his reputation becomes bad, he will be of little use to the wise king. If he abandons him here, won't he be at the mercy of others?
Feelings never stand up to scrutiny, and only interests are the basis for maintaining the relationship between the two parties.
There are still many places where Xu Qing can use the Wise King. In the same way, when Xu Qing still needs to use the banner of the Wise King, he must ensure that his use value is still there.
Xu Qing understood, and so did King Xian, that there was a business between them from the beginning.
There is no other relationship to talk about between the two except Xiao Ruxue.
What? You said there is still Xiao Ye?
It is estimated that if Xiao Ye is brought along, the few feelings between Xu Qing and Xian Wang can be softened...
King Xian glanced at Xu Qing in surprise: "You mean, you have a means to end it? What means?"
Xu Qing smiled and said: "Which ancient book has said that white paper is a holy thing? Public opinion must be defeated by public opinion."
Yes, which book said that white paper is a holy thing?
There isn’t any!
Isn’t it easy to defeat a rhetoric that doesn’t even have its source?
When the Xian Wang who felt relieved was about to leave, he suddenly turned around and glanced at Xu Qing, and asked in surprise: "Why did your skill suddenly increase so much?"
Xu Qing coughed and said: "Ahem, my wife gave me guidance on that secret book..."
The wise king pursed his lips and said: "I am observing the aura on your body. I guess your lady has been guiding you for more than half a month, right?"
When King Xian left, there was another stack of paper missing from the warehouse of Anding Bo Mansion. Xu Qing didn't know why King Xian was joining in the fun. If King Xian's house was short of paper, could he just ask someone to get it from the warehouse of Guoshangyuan?
Do you need to worry about your own family?
Prince Qi's Mansion
King Qi, who was still recuperating at home, was shocked when he heard the news from the court. Then he couldn't help but feel scared. A few days ago, he even thought about wooing Xu Qing again. Fortunately, the leg disease recurred.
The order was not given.
Otherwise, whatever happens today will affect me.
Moreover, Xu Qing is now at home under the heavy responsibility of his father. He has lost the qualification to run the Guoshang Yuan, and has lost the need to win over him.
Are you really still young and vigorous? You are so unscrupulous because of your power in the court. Now you have aroused public anger. Let's see who can save you!
Thinking of this, King Qi said: "I will serve you with pen and ink!"
Winning over? What a fart! While the father is still angry, hurry up and read Xu Qing's book again. The first priority is to increase your weight in the heart of the father!
…
night
Anding Bofu
Su Qian sat on the bed in the bedroom and glanced at the "Beijing Xun Bao" that was released today and put it aside.
Xu Qing walked into the bedroom and closed the door, looked at Su Qian and said, "Why don't you look at me?"
Su Qian said: "They are all bad remarks about your husband. Some even say that your husband is a traitor and I don't like to see it."
Xu Qing sat next to Su Qian and said, "Do you think your husband is a treacherous sycophant?"
Su Qian shook her head and said: "I don't care what my husband looks like outside. When I get home, my husband is just my husband. No matter what happens to my husband in the future, I will always be with him."
Xu Qing hugged Su Qian and said, "How can I ask for a wife like this?"
Soon the lights in the house went out.
"By the way, madam, which move have we reached?"
"Don't you have a photographic memory?"
"There are so many moves in that book that I can't even remember them anymore. Why don't you practice them all over again to get a feel for them?"
In the following period, several court meetings were spent criticizing Xu Qing. However, whether it was among the people or the court, the criticism became smaller each time.
Why is it getting smaller and smaller?
Because His Majesty has never mentioned the accounts again for such a long time, and neither the capital nor the local government has ever sent a prisoner to the capital.
More importantly, all the layers of investigations originally set up in the capital to prevent criminals from absconding in fear of crime have been withdrawn.
It is precisely for this reason that they were able to process most of the evidence that could be found. Even the dirty silver was quietly transported out of the capital little by little during this period, and was secretly found somewhere to be buried so that it would never see the light of day.
Even if His Majesty remembers this matter one day and really uses the debit and credit method to check the accounts, there is no way to convict them based on just a simple number on the accounts.
It can be said that those who are still clamoring for severe punishment of Xu Qing are almost all truly honest people!
