Chapter 117 The Battle of She County's Leading Figures
It is not difficult to find out about Wang Shangning, who is famous in She County and even Huizhou Prefecture. ¢£ But Wang Fulin knew that he was a little famous person now and could be recognized wherever he went. He could no longer be so busy in a winery and teahouse like he did when he asked about Mr. Nanming in Songmingshan, and then sent out Ye Qinglong, who was too smart, and at the same time, while he continued to take root in the study of Master Li who taught Jin Bao and the other two, he pretended to inadvertently ask the Nanzhili Yayuan, who was obviously familiar with the celebrities in Huizhou.
However, what he had unexpected was that Master Li, who had carefully commented on the hero banquet, glanced strangely after hearing his question: "Why, that Old Master Wang has a grudge against you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Bao and Qiu Feng didn't need to say anything. Even Ye Xiaopang, who was ordered by Master Li to copy books, turned his head and looked over, his eyes flashing, obviously wanting to get into it. Wang Fulin glared at him, and Jin Bao and Qiu Feng immediately stopped and lowered their heads. Only Ye Xiaopang was not afraid at all. While pretending to copy books, he quietly raised his eyes from time to time to peek, and his ears even raised high.
In desperation, Wang Fulin could only cough dryly and said, "Brother Li, why do you think so? He was a big shot who once served as the governor of Yunnan and the governor of Nangan. How could I, a young scholar, have a grudge against him?"
But Master Li is not a fool. He ignored Wang Fulin's powerless explanation at all. After pondering for a while, he said with understanding: "I understand. Zhao Sicheng said before that he heard from the envoys of the five counties and township officials, and insisted on recruiting the grain chief of your family to force Mr. Nanming out of this way. But he was afraid he didn't know it. Perhaps there was also the pusher of Mr. Wang behind it. Maybe even if you could not save your fame at the beginning, there was also the shadow of Mr. Wang. Although you could not write two characters Wang in one stroke, there were still irreconcilable contradictions between the same clan, let alone the same surname?"
Speaking to himself, Master Li suddenly looked over. The three little guys who were originally focused on eavesdropping were frightened by his fierce eyes and hurriedly bowed their heads. Master Li knew that some things they didn't understand, but it was not good to be heard after all. He immediately said lightly: "You three, go out and stand under the eaves, and recite the Xunzi Encouragement Chapter I taught you before and come in."
The sun is fierce outside now. Even if it is not basking directly, it is hot enough under the eaves. Jin Bao and Qiu Feng are fine, but Ye Xiaopang is very reluctant. He is not afraid of memorizing the book. Anyway, there are two studious people around him who are studying together, so he is not afraid of basking the sun. At worst, it will be hot for a while. It hasn't been too long. He is angry that he can't hear the following!
You know. He was very concerned about the grudge between Wang Xiaoxiucai and Mr. Wang. He turned around and told her to his sister, which would definitely surprise her! But in the end, his arms could not resist his thighs, so he had to walk away with his head hanging down. But when he went outside, he immediately disappeared the expression of the mouse in front of Master Li when he saw the cat, and pulled Jin Bao and Qiu Feng and muttered.
If Wang Fulin doesn’t say it, he can’t let his classmates ask?
In the room, Master Li sent away three students and then said, "Brother Wang, I don't know much about other things. I can count the people in She County in the court. Now among the officials in She County, Yin Zhengmao, who is fighting in Guangxi, is the most popular. Secondly, he is a nephew of Wang Shangning. Now he is a step away from Xiao Jiuqing, and secondly, he is a few young heroes who have been selected from Hanlin. Wang Shangning is old and his son is not good at playing, so he hopes for his grandson. That nephew has inherited his great favor. If he can continue to rise and unite with the party forces of She County, his grandsons will have a reliance on the future. Mr. Nanming and Yin Daling were in the same year, and it is said that they have a good relationship, but they are not very harmonious with Wang Shangning's nephew."
Hearing this, Wang Fulin finally got a rough idea. At the same time, he immediately admired Master Li, a juren, who laughed at the profound background of a sensational figure. But for such praise, Master Li was a little embarrassed. After drinking a sip of water, he coughed twice: "I remember that before I ran from Ningguo Mansion to Huizhou Mansion, my teaching teacher told me in detail about these famous people. I am just learning and selling. In short, if you really want to face Mr. Wang, it is too dangerous to charge alone, you have to go back and ask Mr. Nanming for help."
"Thank you, Brother Li, please don't worry, I won't be so conceited!"
Regardless of whether Mr. Li's news was wholesale and transferred from the teacher to retail, it was extremely precious to him, so Wang Fulin naturally thanked him again and again. Then when three students who were wilted by the sun returned to the house, Wang Fulin had already packed up his things and walked. He had been calling it a lesson here for several days, but actually doing his own work. Now this departure clearly confirms Mr. Li's previous inference.
Wang Fulin did plan to go back to Songmingshan. However, before returning to Songmingshan, he certainly did not forget to report to Ye County Zun about his experience of meeting Zhao Sicheng and the inside story revealed by Master Li. He did not say how he scared the poor official in front of the household, but only said Zhao Sicheng's confession in detail and did not say it easily. Sure enough, Ye County Zun was shocked and angry. After opening his mouth and spitting out a series of prohibited words, he did not care about embarrassment, and raised his hand to vent his anger, but in the end he was pitifully defeated in the competition between the palm and the handrail.
"Shameless, despicable, old bastard!" He cursed viciously again, and finally sat down on the Grand Master's chair and said dejectedly, "If I had known that the lord of a county was so difficult, even if I begged my grandfather to sue my grandmother, I would have asked me to stay in Beijing! I would have forgotten that the townships in the other five counties were cheated. The old man Wang Shangning was obviously from She County, but he actually cheated me. I really thought I was a soft persimmon and couldn't bully me!"
Seeing Wang Fulin sitting there, his face seemed a little dark, obviously remembering the past that he had been plotting again and again, Ye Junyao couldn't help feeling sympathy. Because of his improvement in his prestige and the establishment of political achievements, he had a good impression of Wang Fulin, and now his favorability has soared by 30% compared to before. So he immediately said righteously: "Fulin, when you returned to Songming Mountain, you will send me a message to Mr. Nanming. I have heard that Mr. Nanming has a high reputation in the literary world, but he has been bullied again and again. It is unbearable. As long as he says, I, the county magistrate, will definitely support me!"
Sure enough, after the rookie Ye County Zun was bullied repeatedly, his anger was terrible!
Wang Fulin quickly thanked Ye Daxianzun for his righteousness, and then stood up to say goodbye. When he left the study, he saw a pretty girl in a lilac dress coming towards him. She was the girl who had been called Xiaobei before. After smiling and saluting to him, she passed by him, but the fragrance she had smelled before was gone. However, since he had determined that it was probably the little girl who pushed him behind the screen, although he would not continue to hold grudges, he was still a little more alert to others. Sure enough, after taking a few steps, he heard a voice coming from behind him.
"Xiao Guanren and Mr. Cheng from Huangjiawu are friends, aren't they?"
Wang Fulin couldn't help but stop and then looked back. Seeing that she was smiling and looking at him, he couldn't help feeling a very inappropriate feeling, but he asked in an understatement: "So what?"
"I heard that Mr. Cheng is going to get married. If the young official doesn't expect to be in a hurry, please prepare a gift early."
Until he came out of the back door of the official party, Wang Fulin couldn't help but think about Xiaobei's words - it is undeniable that if she did it on purpose, then she succeeded! Although Cheng Naixuan was a standard bad friend, he was a trustworthy "good person". So after he expressed his extreme fear of getting married, he encountered the dilemma of getting married immediately. However, he had no choice but to do anything to Mr. Cheng, a sensible person. Besides, he had not come back yet, and he was in a state of anxiety. Therefore, after returning home, he was preparing to go back to Songmingshan early the next morning, and at the same time, he sent a post to the Cheng family.
However, Mr. Cheng and Cheng Naixuan and his son still had no news and still did not come back.
In the evening, Ye Qinglong found out about the family issues that concern Wang Shangning's family. Although it was not so insightful compared to Master Li's, there were also many things worth noting - such as the sequence of wives and concubines in the old man Wang's family, internal struggles between sisters and nephews, and disputes between children and nephews... Anyway, there was never a shortage of gossip about these big names. The two confirmed that Wang Fulin felt that the gains were quite good. However, just when he was very grateful for Ye Qinglong's efficiency, Ye Qinglong mysteriously took out a handful of money from his arms, and it looked like he had a dozen or so papers.
"Little Official, this is when I came back from the back street of the county, I ran into Wu Sili, a household house. He stopped me and insisted on treating tea. Later, he forced me to give me such a little money and asked me to make an appointment with the Little Official, saying that he wanted to invite the Little Official to have some tea together."
Wu Sili, the boss who experienced a triple jump, went from a white-clothed book to a boss of the house, and Liu Hui, who was the one who was in charge of the house after a three-level jump?
Wang Fulin saw Ye Qinglong as he looked at the dozen cents. Compared with the young man's attitude of the two taels of silver, he couldn't help but feel angry and amused. After following him, the young man had already made a total of three hundred taels of silver, which was much richer than his lover. No wonder he looked down on Wu Sili's bribe of more than ten cents. However, in this way, he didn't have to worry about the young man being bribed.
Now in front of Ye Qinglong, the strength of the sugar-coated cannonballs is not strong enough, and the cannonballs will definitely be eaten and returned to the cannonballs!
