From beginning to end, Wang Wenshan listened attentively to the conversation between the two.
He heard what Xiao Chen said, but he didn't believe it all.
Xiao Chen ignored past suspicions and handed over all the officials in Jiangnan to the Ministry of Justice. Although his achievements in Hangzhou cannot be denigrated, he did involve the Ministry of Justice in this case, which allowed the emperor to use the Ministry of Justice more seriously.
Why did he do this?
Is it to win over the Ministry of Justice?
However, Dongchang is directly under the emperor and is not restricted by any department of the imperial court. He has no reason to win over the Ministry of Punishment. Could it be that Xiao Chen is doing things for others?
Before leaving, he said that the prince had something to do with him. Could it be that the prince's eyes were also on Xiao Chen, and that Xiao Chen was secretly trying to win over the prince's connections in the court?
Thinking of this, Wang Ziwen secretly became nervous.
As for Li An, watching Xiao Chen hurriedly disappear at the gate, he sighed and sat back on his seat.
"Sir, why did Xiao Chen suddenly treat the Ministry of Justice so well? The trial of hundreds of officials in Jiangnan was a great achievement. He gave in so easily. The villain always feels that he has an agenda." Standing there.
Beside Li An, Wang Wenshan bowed and said.
"Plot? What plot could he have? It's just that he is afraid that like last time, hundreds of officials from the DPRK and China will jointly target him, so that our punishment department can stand on his side and speak for him. Now he is wearing purple clothes and has unlimited glory.
, what if he arouses the jealousy of others and targets him again." Li An lowered his head and thought for a moment.
In his heart, he was scolding the eighteenth generation of Wang Wenshan's ancestors.
He is just here to ask for money. Can't you see the obvious purpose? He insists on talking about these useless things.
Didn't the King of Han give you a large amount of silver notes? Hit him hard with the banknotes in your hand. Hit him until he is dizzy, and then he falls to the King of Han. He is asking questions like this, and then
If you continue to ramble like this, I will have to go back to the Criminal Department.
Wang Wenshan rolled his eyes a few times, and then said slowly: "Is he planning for a rainy day? At his peak, he could consider the worst possible consequences, the city of the purple-clothed captain, and his age.
Extremely unworthy. This person is really a talent."
After hearing Wang Wenshan's words, Li An felt even more angry.
Xiao Chen is not a talent, but he can be given purple clothes by the emperor? Do you think the emperor is blind? Besides, it is none of your business whether he is a talent. If you work for the King of Han, whatever the King of Han says will be taken. What are you blindly analyzing?
Since they all think Xiao Chen is a talent and haven't taken action yet, does that mean they don't plan to win over him? Since you are such a mother-in-law, forget it, I will dig a bigger hole for you.
"All the officials in the court are trying their best to get close to him. How many people gave him money, but they didn't even have a chance. But I don't have money to give him. It's really sad." Shut your mouth,
Li An let out a long breath through his nose.
He didn't mention the banknotes sent by the King of Han. He just gave Wang Wenshan a reminder: This is Xiao Chen's time to use silver. Giving him a banknote is like giving him timely help. Don't let others snatch this opportunity away.
.
Being able to be arranged by the King of Han to work as a housekeeper in the Shangshu Mansion in every possible way, Wang Wenshan's palace is not comparable to ordinary people. Although the banknotes belong to the Han King's Mansion, the control power belongs to him.
The most important thing is that the purpose of these tickets is to win over the purple-robed captain. If the higher-ups didn't find out clearly and just gave out the banknotes rashly, without even a splash rising, the prince would blame himself.
.Twenty thousand taels of silver notes are not a small amount.
"Sir, do you think Xiao Chen has turned to other forces at present?" Wang Wenshan asked with a strange smile.
Li An couldn't help but be startled: "Other forces? What do you mean by other forces?"
Wang Wenshan smiled: "For the King of Han, the biggest threat is naturally the prince. Of course, although King Zhao has been unknown and has not taken any action, everything can guarantee that he is not acting secretly. The other forces mentioned by the villain are the prince and the
King Zhao."
"There is no one else in the living room now. What's the point of being so mysterious? Can't you just talk to the prince and King Zhao directly? According to the current situation, he should not have fallen in love with anyone. However, he was leaving just now
I told you when I was here that the prince has something to do with him. As for what it is, you and I are not able to guess it." Li An said a little angry.
Seeing that Li An was a little dissatisfied, Wang Wenshan moved forward, forced a smile on his face, and said flatteringly: "Sir, please don't be angry. The reason why I didn't directly give the purple-clothed captain a silver note just now was because I wanted to
Let’s see what he is planning. Moreover, my lord, you are working for the King of Han. You cannot tell the purple-clothed captain yet. We need to win him over step by step. If we carry the King of Han out rashly, I am afraid that he will be taken out together with him.
The banknotes were sent to the emperor together. By then, not only the King of Han, but also you, my lord, will be implicated."
Staring at Wang Wenshan, Li An said: "I don't know this. I still can't figure out what he really thinks in his heart. How can he dare to mention the matter of King Han? Only by gradually making King Han feel good in his mind, gradually
Accept it, and it’s never too late to tell the truth fully.”
Li An's face was serious, but he was smiling in his heart.
I gave the banknote, but I didn't dare to say it was from the King of Han. When the time comes, don't blame Xiao Chen for not admitting it.
"No matter what, it's time for Xiao Chen to use his money. Sir, please give him some timely help first and leave a good impression in his mind. As for the rest, we will make plans in the future."
As he spoke, Wang Wenshan took out two banknotes from his arms, thought about it, and handed one of them to Li An.
Li An looked carefully and saw that what Wang Wenshan handed him was a large silver note of ten thousand taels. Although he had never touched such a large silver note in his life, he watched as the other person handed him another silver note.
He put it in his arms, but felt a little dissatisfied.
"As for Xiao Chen, he had hundreds of people and traveled thousands of miles. In addition to the personal compensation of those captains, these ten thousand taels were barely enough. However, it only passed through Xiao Chen's hands for a while, and then transferred to
In the hands of others. If you want to leave some traces in Xiao Chen's heart, I'm afraid this banknote must also leave some traces in his hands."
Li An did not reach out to pick it up, but looked meaningfully at the place where Wang Wenshan kicked the banknote.
"Sir, the prince has given me a total of 20,000 taels in silver notes. What should I do if there is another operation later?" Wang Wenshan looked confused.
Even so, my heart is as stable as Mount Tai.
Zhu Gaoxu sent a total of 50,000 taels of silver notes, and he withheld 30,000 taels in case of emergencies. Although he only sent 20,000 taels now, he could not act too casually. He could control it more or less and let Li
I have something to say at the purple-robed captain.
