Chapter 2716 Clouds move in all directions


Chapter 2716 Clouds move from all sides

Only then did Du He suddenly realize, but he asked again: "This kind of matter involves a lot of things. I'm afraid no one can make a decision in a short while. Can we keep waiting?"

Fang Jun had already ordered the shopkeeper to remove the banquet and set up a coffee table and a few chairs near the window. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "I've had enough wine and food. I just happen to have a cup of hot tea here. Let's wait." The time for a pot of tea is to wait until the tea is tasteless and out of date.”

The shopkeeper now knew the identities of the people in front of him. Seeing that Shen Zong, the son in charge of his family, was being suppressed, he didn't dare to neglect. He quickly removed the banquet, arranged the coffee table and chairs, and brewed a pot himself. The fine tea leaves are placed respectfully on the coffee table.

"My dear gentlemen, please bear with me. This tea is just an ordinary grade on the market. I couldn't find a better one in a hurry. I apologize."

Fang Jun laughed and said unconcernedly: "Drinking tea is a state of mind, just like drinking wine is an atmosphere. When three or five friends sit across from each other and drink tea, what they taste is the state of mind, not the quality of the tea. .”

The shopkeeper quickly nodded and bowed, saying yes again and again.

But I couldn't help but wonder in my heart: just now, the Duke of Yue was so powerful and domineering in front of Shen Zong and Wang Jing, but now he can be gentle and kind. There is no violation in the change of style, it is smooth and natural, he is really a strange person...

The three of them sat down at the coffee table by the window, and Fang Jun called Pei Xingjian over. The four of them drank tea and chatted together, which was very comfortable.

Du He was most proud of occasions like this. As long as he was not talking about business, he would be very lively and smart. He would tell ordinary anecdotes, add jealousy and exaggerate them, and it was full of fun.

Pei Xingjian is also a son of a famous family, and is no stranger to socializing. In the past two years, he has controlled the distribution of wealth throughout the south of the Yangtze River in Huating Town. He has great power and is well-informed. His temperament is extraordinary. He cooperates with Du He to make the atmosphere even more intense. easy.

I don't know when the light rain started to fall outside the window. A breeze blew in from the open window. The hot steam from the tea was swaying in the wind, and the fragrance of the tea was dense.

They were sitting here sipping tea comfortably, but the whole city of Suzhou seemed to be exploding...

*****

The Suzhou government office was only separated by a wall from Wangjiang Tower. The government office had already received the news before hundreds of soldiers entered the city. Later, Shen Zong and Wang Jing felt that they were beaten by a group of forbidden troops and were running around crying for their fathers and mothers. , the government office is already shaking up and down.

Every official who can enter the government office has one or several clan members standing behind him. They themselves represent the interests of their respective clans, and they are all outstanding figures in the family. These people know the situation of each family in the south of the Yangtze River very clearly. Don't look at the Xiao family of Lanling who is the leader of the south of the Yangtze River, the Xie family of Chen County who is literary and elegant, and the Wang family of Langya who has a profound background... The one who is most difficult to offend is Wu Xingchen. Shi.

"Family style is fierce", this is the most intuitive label of the Shen family in Wuxing. Back then, Shen Faxing raised his arms and led thousands of his descendants to run rampant across the Yangtze River, coercing tens of thousands of elites from each family to rise up and become king. This can be seen from the Shen family. The children are more engaged in business and read less poetry and books. They are brave and fierce in the countryside, which gives everyone a headache when they see them.

His Highness the King of Wei performed an operation on the Wuxing Shen family, which made these people feel happy and even more worried.

They don't even bother to deal with such a difficult character as the Wuxing Shen family, which shows how determined they are. If anyone wants to deny those goods and farming industries, His Highness the King of Wei may come to their door tomorrow.

The misfortune of the Shen family made everyone realize the fact that the eloquent and eloquent descendant of the Taiyuan Wang family did not seem to be very reliable.

At least it’s not enough in front of Fang Jun...

With the majesty of King Wei, a noble man in the sky, and the tyrannical power in the hands of Fang Jun, these two people were like fierce dragons crossing the river. As soon as they appeared, they had the power to shock Jiangdong.

Thinking back to the vacillating attitudes in their respective homes, it was inevitable to worry about gains and losses, and kept staring at the situation at Wangjiang Tower.

As for His Highness the King of Wei, riding horses in the streets, causing trouble and hurting people... everyone has a tacit agreement to remain silent, and no one even mentioned it.

In the governor's room, Mu Yuanzuo drank the best Longjing tea, savoring the fragrant aroma of the tea. He smiled and said to the two people in front of him: "Wang Dalang is as gentle as jade and full of knowledge. Although he is a great man among men, he is more and more beautiful." The Duke is still a little bit behind.”

The admiration is extremely obvious.

Previously, Wang Jing crossed the river in white clothes and secretly contacted various Jiangnan noble families, which made Mu Yuanzuo worried, fearing that his sharp tongue would be used to connect various Jiangnan families to form an alliance to jointly resist the prince's influence. So, he The governor of Suzhou could not sit still.

But who would have thought that when Fang Jun arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, he would directly confront Wang Jing with his back foot. There was no conspiracy or strategy, and he just faced Wang Jing straight up, leaving Wang Jing in a state of embarrassment and losing all face.

He really turned his hand into clouds and turned his hand into rain, reversing the situation in an instant.

Mu Yuanzuo couldn't hide the look of pride on his face, but the two people in front of him just forced out a smile in embarrassment, without even the slightest hint of laughter.

The younger man was fair-faced, beardless, and quite handsome. He coughed and said: "The Duke of Yue made countless achievements in the southern and northern campaigns. His navy even traveled across the seven seas without a single defeat. He defeated Silla, Japan, and Annan. They are all manipulated by him. His strategies and skills are rare in the world, and Wang Dalang is naturally difficult to compete with. ”

Although these are all facts, this person just said a kind word. After all, everyone knows that Mu Yuanzuo can firmly hold the position of Suzhou governor to this day, and may even go further to the central government because of him. He joined Fang Jun's camp and received Fang Jun's strong support, otherwise the Jiangnan nobles would have joined forces to squeeze him away...

In front of Mu Yuanzuo, who can say anything bad about Fang Jun?

Unexpectedly, Mu Yuanzuo didn't seem to know that he was talking politely. He pretended to be surprised and said: "Hey, there are rumors that the Xiao family and Wang Jing are secretly flirting with each other. I am still very puzzled. After all, the Xiao family and the Duke of Yue have an affair." In-laws, Xiandi and Fang Jun are more like uncles, so how can they turn their elbows outward? Seeing that Xiandi admires the Duke of Yue so much, it turns out that the rumors are wrong. "

This young official is a descendant of the Xiao family. At this moment, he looked ugly due to being bullied by Mu Yuanzuo, but he could not get angry. He could only forcefully laugh and drink tea with his head down.

Mu Yuanzuo looked up at another person.

This man was older, about forty years old, with a slender face and a long beard. He had an elegant demeanor and an outstanding temperament. Upon seeing this, he cupped his hands and said with a bitter smile: "Don't cancel the official position in the Ming Dynasty. The lower official is just the Langya Wang family." How can a boy from a branch of the family obey the orders of his family and do anything he can? The Duke of Yue slapped him in the face, but he couldn't hit the little guy like Xiaguan in the face. "

Mu Yuanzuo laughed, gestured for the other party to drink tea, and then said slowly: "That's what I said, but back then, I had heard about the grievances between your Langya Wang family and the Duke of Yue. I don't care who is right and who is wrong. The estrangement between them is difficult to cover up. It can only be seen that the Yue Guogong's current methods must be used to sweep away the public opinion with the power of thunder and level Jiangnan in one fell swoop. For all the opponents, the Langya Wang family is now closer to the Taiyuan Wang family. This is not a good thing. No one can guarantee that the Duke of Yue will not attack the Langya Wang family after the Shen family. And if the Yue Duke really wants to attack the Langya Wang family. Naturally, it is impossible to attack the Langya Wang family, so cutting off the Langya Wang family’s wings is the best way to deter them.”

The Wang family's face turned bitter and he couldn't laugh.

The truth is obvious. Fang Jun has tortured the Jiangnan nobles several times before, causing them to bleed and lose their faces. If he went straight to confront any one of them, the emperor would not agree.

But you can't barge in and fight hard, but it doesn't mean that you really can't do anything to these Jiangnan nobles. Choking each family's neck from the sea trade is one way, and attacking them from the officialdom is the other way.

There is no doubt that as long as Fang Jun seriously thinks about punishing the Langya Wang family, he, a Suzhou Mutual Market Supervisor from the sixth grade, will be the first to bear the brunt.

It's a pity that I have spent more than ten years of energy. Although I have the support of my family, I have only relied on my own efforts to get this official position. I am afraid that if there is a strong wind, I will lose everything. If Fang Jun is cruel and malicious, he may even be able to arrange for himself. For one crime, he was directly sent to Lingnan.

In political struggles, there is no mercy, and I will never hesitate to use any tricks that can be used...

He could only smile bitterly: "The interests of the family come first. We, the children, should sacrifice our lives to repay each other. How dare we talk too much?" (End of Chapter)
