Chapter 085 Showing off one's power(2/2)
"Mingren don't tell secrets. Wang came here today because he wanted to ask Mr. Liu for help with something."
Liu Zhenfeng said: "Deputy Envoy Wang is very polite, but now that the official is behind bars, I'm afraid I won't be able to help Deputy Envoy Wang."
"Master Liu is too modest!" Wang Zhong smiled and pushed the box on the table to Liu Zhenfeng: "Master Liu, you might as well take a look at the gift I brought for Master Liu first."
"Gift?" Liu Zhenfeng, who was lying on the ground, opened the box doubtfully and took out a small skirt worn by girls, a pair of embroidered shoes, a rattle and a jade lock.
The moment he saw these things, Liu Zhenfeng's expression changed. He looked at Wang Zhong in shock and asked in confusion: "What does Deputy Wang mean by this?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Zhong said calmly: "Master Liu was also a first-ranked scholar in the second rank. It is said that he is Wang's predecessor. He has served as county magistrate in many places.
Tong Yan was transferred to the Lianghuai Salt Department and served for only a few years. Although he was in charge of a small document library, he could be promoted to Tokyo as long as he had enough qualifications, and it was not necessarily impossible for him to rise to the top.
Now that he has become a prisoner of the rank and file and is behind bars, is it possible that Mr. Liu is not unwilling at all?"
"So what if you don't want to give in?" Liu Zhenfeng's face showed a bit of helplessness: "Deputy Ambassador Wang, just say what you want to say."
Wang Zhongdao: "Master Liu is a smart man, so Wang will not go around in circles. This time King Huan went south to patrol the salt, it was a decision jointly made by the official family and the eldest lady. King Huan is the eldest son of the official family, and he only waits for this inspection."
After the salt is over and great achievements have been made, the officials can issue an edict and canonize King Huan as the crown prince. Now that this great opportunity is in front of you, Mr. Liu doesn't know how to cherish it?"
Liu Zhenfeng was stunned for a moment, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but he finally closed his eyes: "Why can't Liu understand what Deputy Ambassador Wang said?"
Wang Zhongdao: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, but if Mr. Liu doesn't think about himself, shouldn't he also think about his father and two young children at home?"
Liu Zhenfeng had a look of horror on his face: "What does Deputy Ambassador Wang mean by these words?"
Wang Zhong smiled mysteriously: "Of course it means literally!"
After saying that, he turned around with the lantern and walked away without stopping at all, and without any intention of saying more. He didn't give Liu Zhenfeng any time to think about it.
But Liu Zhenfeng, who was lying on the haystack, instantly filled up countless messages in his mind.
What did Wang Zhong mean when he suddenly mentioned his father and children just now? Was he trying to harm them? To threaten himself? But this dynasty has always treated civil servants favorably, and even though King Huan was a prince, he could not go beyond the ancestral precepts.
But those are his father and children! What if...
Invisible threats are the most deadly, and invisible thoughts are the most unstoppable.
The moment Wang Zhong stepped out of the cell door, Liu Zhenfeng couldn't help but stretched out his hand to stop Wang Zhong.
"etc!"
