Chapter four hundred and eighty first attack again
Tian Wenxiu has been very quiet in the past two months, and there has been no more trouble, mainly because Guo Song exposed his true identity, which made him a little panicked. He didn't know how many secrets Guo Song had mastered, so he didn't dare to act rashly. He had to
He had to ask Yuan Xuanhu for instructions before he could take the next step, but at this time, the Hexi Corridor was blocked by heavy snow. He did not have the eagle letter or the dove letter, so he could not get in touch with the family leader Yuan Xuanhu, so he had to remain silent and endure.
The sun is shining brightly in Zhangye during the day. Although the weather is still very cold, you can still do outdoor activities and bask in the sun under the warm sunshine. But at night, the temperature drops sharply, and it is so cold that even your blood will freeze. So after the sun goes down, Zhangye
There are almost no people on the streets.
At night, a carriage was driving on an extremely quiet street, its wheels rattling, and it was the only carriage on the street.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of Tian Wenxiu's house, the door opened, and Cui Wenjing got out of the carriage. In the past two months, Cui Wenjing's life has not been easy. It was rumored that he had a close relationship with the supervisor Tian Wenxiu.
This made Cui Wenjing hostile and marginalized in Hexi official circles, and Cui Wenjing had to live with her tail between her legs like a dog.
But today, Cui Wenjing received a pigeon letter from Lu Qi, and he felt that it was necessary to find Tian Wenxiu.
An attendant led him into the palace and to Tian Wenxiu's study. Tian Wenxiu was proficient in writing and could recognize thousands of characters, and his handwriting was pretty good. This was still relatively rare among eunuchs, so he was quite popular with Emperor Li Shi.
of importance.
Tian Wenxiu was practicing calligraphy in the room. When he saw Cui Wenjing come in, he put down his pen and said with a smile: "It's so cold outside, Cui Changshi must have something important to do!"
Cui Wenjing nodded, "I received a pigeon letter from Lu Xiangguo today. I think it is equally meaningful to Supervisor Tian."
"Cui Changshi and Lu Xiangguo had correspondence?" Tian Wenxiu was a little surprised.
Cui Wenjing quickly shook her head, "Normally there is no correspondence, but today a businessman came to me and provided me with a pigeon letter, and I found out that it was a pigeon letter that Lu Xiangguo asked them to send."
Cui Wenjing handed a pigeon letter to Tian Wenxiu, "Read it yourself!"
Tian Wenxiu quickly opened the pigeon letter and saw that there were only four words on it, 'normal supervision', and below it was Lu Qi's private seal.
This pigeon letter is not so much for Cui Wenjing as it is for Tian Wenxiu. Cui Wenjing does not have supervisory power, but Tian Wenxiu does.
Tian Wenxiu was stunned for a long time and suddenly asked: "Does Lu Xiangguo already know about the situation here?"
"That's right! Lu Xiangguo naturally has his own ways. I think this is actually news for you, so I forward this pigeon letter to you."
Tian Wenxiu sat down slowly. He pondered for a moment and asked, "What does Cui Changshi think this pigeon letter means?"
"I feel that the meaning of this pigeon letter is to ask you to take action, not to be timid, not to think about personal grudges, but to exercise your power of supervising the army normally. Your last setback was just a personal setback, but you are a representative
The emperor came to oversee the army in Hexi. He has been here in Hexi for more than a month, but he has done nothing. I feel that the army overseer Tian seems to have confused public affairs with private matters."
Tian Wenxiu gradually came to his senses. He seemed to be a bit over the top. He only wanted to deal with Guo Song, but he forgot that he was the supervisor of the Hexi Army.
"Then what should our family do next?"
Cui Wenjing felt a little contempt for this eunuch. His ability was too poor, he had almost no experience, and he was also timid. After being hit with a stick by Guo Song, he stopped moving forward.
Despite his contempt, Cui Wenjing still has to help him. They are now grasshoppers on a rope, and their fates are basically connected.
"I suggested that the supervisory army set up an inspection office and continue to investigate Pan Liao's case. Guo Song only accused the supervisory army of being rude, but he did not dare to say that the supervisory army had exceeded its authority. The supervisory army was more polite and invited Pan Liao for questioning.
This is the power of the supervisory army, and I believe Guo Song has nothing to say."
Tian Wenxiu nodded slowly, he knew what to do.
The sixth day of the first lunar month was the first day after the Spring Festival. Officials came to the official office one after another to start work and began to sort out various data from last year and prepare to report to the court.
Pan Liao had just arrived at the official room, and before he had time to sit down and have a sip of tea, a clerk said at the door: "Pan Changshi, Tian Jianjun, please come over."
Pan Liao was shocked. The scene more than a month ago was still fresh in his memory. Did Tian Wenxiu still refuse to let him go?
He had no choice but to use the word "please", which made him unable to refuse, so he had to bite the bullet and walk to the prison guard's room.
The Supervisory Army Room is located in the east courtyard. It is a separate courtyard. There is a plaque with the words "Hexi Supervisory Army" hanging on the door, but Pan Liao accidentally discovered that there is another plaque next to it, "Hexi Supervisory Room".
When was this inspection office established? It seems that I didn’t even see it before the holiday. How fast was it?
"Pan Changshi is here, please come in! The supervisory army is waiting for Changshi." A follower of Tian Wenxiu asked Pan Liao to come in politely.
Pan Liao walked into the courtyard and was greeted by Tian Wenxiu with a smile, "Pan Changshi, happy New Year!"
Pan Liao was surprised at the other party's attitude. The last time they met, he only had two words for him, 'Take it!' Now he has become amiable. Pan Liao really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine the other party was selling in his gourd?
He had no choice but to bow his hands and salute in return, "Happy New Year, Supervisor."
"It's cold outside, Pan Changshi, please come in and sit down!" Tian Wenxiu warmly greeted him into the room.
Pan Liao followed him to the hall. The two of them were seated separately as guests, and Tian Wenxiu asked someone to serve tea.
Pan Liao couldn't help but ask: "Does the Supervisory Army want anything from me?"
"It's just to understand the situation. This is the duty of the supervisor. Pan Changshi doesn't need to worry. Just answer truthfully."
Pan Liao secretly sighed in his heart. In fact, it was the same as last time, but with a different attitude. He still wanted to put himself to death. This kind of smiling tiger is actually more terrifying, letting you fall into the trap without knowing it.
"Commander, please ask me a question! I am humble enough to answer everything I know."
Tian Wenxiu still kept his smile, but his eyes became cold. He nodded to the side, and an employee in charge of recording picked up a pen.
"We would like to ask why the price you sell to wine merchants in Beijing is 10% lower than the other two wineries?"
In the military camp, Guo Song calmly listened to Pan Liao's report and asked: "Except for the three questions, did he not give you any trouble in other aspects?"
Pan Liao shook his head, "He was very polite to Ji Zhi today. It can be said to be unusually polite. But underneath his abnormality, I can feel his uncontrollable murderous intention. He just wants to find a reason to kill Ji Zhi and make a warning to others!"
Guo Song said calmly: "As long as I am here, he can't kill you."
Pan Liao knelt on the ground and said with shame on his face: "But the humble job in the wine business is indeed not very clean."
"I know!"
Guo Song calmly said: "You accepted the five thousand guan from Zhang Lei because you had to support two families and seven children. In fact, I asked Zhang Lei to give you the 5,000 guan. I know
Your family’s dilemma!”
Pan Liao was stunned, and then his nose felt sour. He was deeply moved.
"envoy"
Guo Song held his shoulders and said slowly: "There is no perfect person in this world, including myself. Everyone has a selfish side. The key is whether you can restrain it and don't become a slave to selfish desires. You get five thousand strings."
After making money, you no longer indulged your selfish desires, and never spoke to Zhang Lei again. Hundreds of thousands of dollars passed through your hands, and it was not less than a penny. This is enough to prove that although you are not a saint, you are a character.
Excellent person."
Tears welled up from Pan Liao's eyes. His heart was ups and downs, and he had the urge to die for his confidant. At this moment, even if Tian Wenxiu kidnapped his child and threatened him, he would never betray Guo Song.
"He focused on why our wine is 10% cheaper than the other two."
It was Guo Song's decision to make the wine 10% cheaper. Their wine was not sold directly to Meishou Winery, but to avoid suspicion, it was first sold to Zhangye Wine Shop, which is Anjia's wine shop, and then Anjia sold it to
Meishou Liquor Store, as a partner, Zhangye Liquor Store takes a 10% profit margin, so Meishou Liquor Store still gets the normal shipping price.
"Then how do you explain it?" Guo Songxiao asked.
"Bizi explained to him, because half of our grapes are new grapes, the quality is not stable yet, not as good as the old grapes from the other two companies, we can't sell them, we must give 10% of the profit before the wine dealer can accept it, Bizhi also showed him
I signed a contract with Zhangye Liquor Store."
"Then what did he say?"
"He didn't say anything. He obviously didn't believe what I said. He moved all the account books over and said he wanted to clean up the dirty snow in the official circles of Hexi."
Guo Song shook his head and smiled: "It seems that he is very self-aware and knows that he is the dirty snow in the official circles of Hexi."
"Your Majesty, how should you deal with your humble position?"
"He can't find anything wrong with the wine, but it's your private life that's the key to impeaching you. You should marry that woman back quickly. She gave you two children, and you still haven't given her a title?"
Pan Liao said with a wry smile: "It's not that I didn't give her a title, but she insisted that I divorce my wife. She didn't want to be a concubine, so how could I divorce my first wife, so the stalemate lasted for ten years."
Guo Song walked a few steps with his hands behind his back: "Let's do this! You voluntarily resign from the official position, but I will not report it to the court. Then I will appoint you as my staff and continue to be in charge of the winery and vineyard. When the time is right, I will
Reinstate your official position."
Pan Liao knew that this was Guo Song trying to protect him, so he bowed and said, "I will keep your kindness and humble duty in mind!"
