During this period of time, Maggot in the Snow's complexion has improved a lot, and the handsome face of the once pampered young master has regained some of its beauty.
In addition, he has gone through many vicissitudes in his martial arts training, and now he has become a man with not too high kung fu, but a very tasteful temperament and demeanor, and he can win the hearts of many women in Longyin City.
Standing behind Qin Shou'an, he still looks a little dull. The Langya King, who was born rich and powerful, holds great power and has a high-spirited attitude like "a brocade hat and a mink fur, thousands of horses riding around the plain", but ordinary people can't fake it. Come out openly and freely.
The Fenglei Guards all over the Xin Qin are not as simple as thousands of horses rolling into Ping Gang. With the command of the Lord of the Nine Provinces, the gathered power can make any major sect in the world disappear in an instant - probably the grand master of that sect. Able to escape far away.
When such a person takes office, he will naturally get a lot of attention. Looking at Fu Jun's back, Xue Zhongzhong couldn't help but sigh with emotion, how could he get his attention when he was at his lowest.
"Congratulations to Mr. Fu, the young man has great ambitions and will ride a horse across the plains." The maggot in the snow looked forward to it sincerely.
After he entered Jiuzhou Mansion, in the short period of time, he gained more knowledge than he had accumulated from his previous wanderings in the world. He also learned about the old prince's behavior, while the prince was completely different, such as selling and smuggling red poppy grass. I'm afraid the old prince won't care about anointing.
"Haha..." Qin Shou'an looked up to the sky and laughed loudly. He likes people who can talk, especially those who speak with some literary talent, rather than outright flattery. These words like maggots in the snow actually come from the heart. Full of respect for him.
"I originally planned to summon you again tomorrow." Qin Shou'an was very satisfied with Maggot in the Snow's dedicated attitude towards his duties. Even though Qin Shou'an did not have time to tell him to stay, he still waited until this time in preparation for Qin Shou'an's summons. "Let's go for a walk and talk about what you've seen these past few days."
"Yes. I got Fu Jun's jade card that day, and I have been regarded as Fu Jun's confidant by the government. Even if they don't avoid me deliberately, they are still very polite and find it difficult to get close to me. It's not easy for Ji Zhi to make false statements. These days, I mainly observe people’s words and make insinuations. Currently, the top-ranked Fenglei Guard in the mansion, the one I am most familiar with is Mr. Li Renjun..."
Qin Shou'an listened to the report of the maggots in the snow and thought to himself.
When the late emperor and his father established the Kyushu Prefecture, they formulated relevant regulations to prevent officials from the imperial court from easily infiltrating the Kyushu Prefecture. For example, the Kyushu Prefecture had an independent official selection system and salary sources, and even the funds to maintain the operation of the Kyushu Prefecture were self-raised.
Of course, this self-financing did not really require Qin Heng to pay for it out of his own pocket... Just like Kang Mazi always stayed with the Cao family when he went to Jiangnan, it was also because he gave the Cao family the best job in the world for Jiangning weaving.
The late emperor handed over the Tang family's property in Junhai to Tang Wanrong, and then asked Qin Heng to provide Tang Wanrong with shelter. Tang Wanrong also managed the property in the inner treasury, so Tang Wanrong was naturally responsible for the financial expenses of Jiuzhou Mansion.
Under such circumstances, the Kyushu government and the imperial bureaucracy were naturally completely separated from each other in terms of system, but no matter how good the design and system were, it was difficult to suppress human nature.
The Jiuzhou government office is in Longyin City, and most of the officials live in Longyin City. After so many years, those officials who may have had little to do with Longyin City at the beginning have settled down here and have wives and children. , then it is inevitable to be integrated into this intricate network of interpersonal relationships.
If there are contacts, there will be people and sophistication, there will be transactions... The file sent to Qin Shou'an today is an example.
When the water is extremely clear, there are no fish; when people observe it, there are no disciples.
Originally, Qin Shou'an would turn a blind eye, but under the threat of his new official taking office, there are still people doing this, which can only show that in the eyes of someone in Jiuzhou Mansion, for The Rong family's affairs are more important.
If you don't use this kind of person to scare the monkeys, I'm really sorry that he comes forward so actively.
"Also recently, someone in the house deliberately talked about Rong Qingshu in front of me... Then I thought about it and realized that I couldn't let Rong Qingshu die so easily, so I cut out his tongue, severed his limbs, and destroyed She lost her appearance and was thrown on the street near the Rongguo Duke's mansion. Find someone to look after her so she doesn't die easily."
The maggot in the snow knew that Qin Shou'an entrusted the person to him not to specifically take care of Rong Qingshu, but mainly to punish this person's evil deeds and make evil retribution, so the maggot in the snow gave full play to it.
"It's good...I didn't even expect it. This is a good thing."
Qin Shouan was in a happy mood. How could someone like Rong Qingshu die so easily? It would make him feel like he was alive and suffering hellish torture all the time, so that his heart would be filled with resentment and desolation and pain, and he would no longer be able to feel any joy or joy.
"Where's that fish girl?" Maggot in the Snow asked again carefully.
"Fish girl?"
"Yu Wanqing is the girl that your highness sent you personally a few days ago." Seeing that Qin Shou'an was not impressed, Maggot in the Snow stopped addressing Yu Wanqing respectfully.
Originally, the maggots in the snow and the villagers saw that Yu Wanqing had a very good appearance and figure, and she was even more coquettish and seductive, so they were a little worried that Yu Wanqing was the woman that Qin Shou'an liked. They watched her carefully but did not embarrass her, and continued to watch her every day. Eat and drink well, lest Qin Shou'an come to see her again one day, but she is no longer as plump as before.
"It's not me. I will interrogate her when I have time. Just keep her until she dies." Qin Shou'an said nonchalantly. If it weren't for the fact that she seemed to be related to Liang Shisanniang, such a vicious and wanton woman would , you can go with Rong Qingshu to keep you company.
"Yes." The maggot in the snow breathed a sigh of relief. This Yu Wanqing was quite cunning. She didn't know Qin Shou'an's identity, but she found that the maggot in the snow and the villagers were testing her relationship with Qin Shou'an, and judged that they were most afraid of her. This is where she started to be vague, making the relationship between her and Qin Shouan ambiguous.
When I get back, I will ask the villagers to tie up Yu Wanqing more tightly and reduce the meal from three meals a day to one meal a day, as long as I don't starve to death. After all, life in Longyin City is not easy, and both husband and wife are people who are used to living a hard life. , Save if you can.
Qin Shou'an and Xue Zhongmaggot were talking, and they walked around the neighborhood until they came to the street in front of the Jiuzhou Mansion Office. They saw the lights spreading like a galaxy in the world, and the streets were crowded with tourists, and it was very lively, even if they were standing on the outermost edge. , and often need to avoid running children.
After walking a few steps, Qin Shou'an was surrounded by beauties. In addition to the girls from good families who came out to play, there were also girls from brothels with beautiful flowers and charming eyes, rubbing against him intentionally or unintentionally.
The girls in the brothel are not always in the shop to pick up customers. Some courtesans and red cards with loud names and already famous reputations will go out to parade in the streets like ordinary women during busy times. If they can get to know some talented officials and so on. , it is also very beneficial for them to improve their cards.
Maybe there is still a chance to climb a high branch and say goodbye to this protégé who sells flesh and smiles... Even if you are a concubine sometimes, it is not much better, but you always have to have dreams. How many stories of talented people and beautiful women deceive their destiny. Wrong women.
"The clouds are light on the colorful boats, and the herons are rising on the stars and rivers."
Qin Shouan was pushed to the outermost edge by the crowd. In order to avoid the women stuffing sachets, handkerchiefs and name notes, he came to the edge of the river.
The handsome eyebrows were slightly raised, and what came into view was a three-story boat. It was like a tall building built in the water. It was huge and majestic. The most eye-catching thing was the house number on the deck.
Qin Shou'an read it over and saw that the handwriting seemed slightly familiar, and then he saw the seal of the then Prime Minister Fang Du Wei.
"Caiyun Xinghe Tower, the prime minister wrote the inscription himself, it seems to have a great background." Maggot in the Snow was not a native of Longyin City. When he brought his wife to see the prosperity of this place, he was not in the mood to pay attention to such a place of drunkenness and dreams.
However, after entering Jiuzhou Mansion, I often heard colleagues mention that Caiyun Xinghe Tower was actually a gold-selling cave comparable to Wang Xie Fengyue Tower. Other than that, Maggots in the Snow didn't know much about it.
The maggots in the snow were a little curious, but not interested in experiencing it.
The pretty bodies in the village have taken good care of themselves and gradually regained their former beauty. During this period of night, the husband and wife would be intimate every night, which made the maggots in the snow seem to have returned to their youth. They only wanted to sink into the soft body of their wives. I have no interest in the decaying flowers and willows outside.
"It is said that Caiyun Xinghe Tower has regular customers and does not accept guests who board the ship rashly. If Your Highness wants to board the ship without revealing his identity, you can arrange it with Mr. Li. There should be no problem."
Maggots in the Snow are currently in an embarrassing situation in Jiuzhou Prefecture where no one dares to look down upon or neglect them, but there are no actual resources available.
He could only find out some information for Qin Shou'an and act as a thorn in the side. If he really wanted to do things, he would have to find someone else. An old man like Li Renjun from Jiuzhou Prefecture had resources and connections that were beyond the reach of maggots in the snow.
"Hmph, they're all just gimmicks to raise the bar to attract people." Qin Shou'an sneered at this. The only reason to open a business is to make money, but he still has to look proud in front of customers. What are you pretending to do?
Many people are also guilty of being cheap, so they have driven up the price of meat, raising the price of meat to the point where the price of silver, gold, and even bankruptcy is necessary.
Why bother?
Qin Shou'an doesn't think Caiyun Xinghe Tower really has a big backstage. No matter how big the backstage is, everyone has to bow respectfully when they see King Langya, otherwise Qin Shou'an will punch him in the face, and everyone will have their teeth and teeth knocked out. Swallowed with blood.
Just like when he went to Wang Xie Fengyue Tower, if it hadn't been for his own house, the building would have been demolished long ago - Ci Shu Xianfang is the best example.
Could Caiyun Xinghe Tower be the backstage of the Rong family again? If its backstage was the relatively less powerful Prime Minister's Office, Qin Shou'an would probably give it face, since he had to take care of Yiren's sister after all.
"Your Highness is right." Xue Zhongxiao also agreed. He wanted to settle down now and have a child with the village beauty while he was still young.
When people reach middle age, some things become less and less, so they must make the best use of them and not waste a single thing on women outside.
Although it is a gimmick in Qin Shouan's eyes, there are still many people who do this.
The Caiyun Xinghe Tower was parked on the river bank. From time to time, tall horses or gorgeous four-carrying or eight-carrying sedans would bring guests to board the ship, but no one disembarked. They all seemed to be intoxicated in luxury and unwilling to leave.
The two of them admired the large ship, which was comparable to a mobile palace, and were about to leave when they saw a sedan stop on the river bank. The curtain opened and a plump and beautiful woman came out. She had a delicate face. There is a slight evil look between the brows and eyes, but it does not detract from the graceful and luxurious appearance in the slightest. The clothes are loosely swung open casually, revealing the fat and plumpness that is difficult to hide.
Four government officials from Kyoto Prefecture followed her and climbed onto the Caiyun Xinghe Tower aggressively. They were obviously not guests, but no one dared to stop her.
"Watch the excitement..." Qin Shou'an greeted the maggots in the snow, "Do you know this woman?"
Maggot in the snow was a little surprised, but seeing the excitement, the master of the house greeted him, but he couldn't help but make people feel close and easy-going.
"I don't know... but being able to lead the officials of Kyoto Prefecture and break into Caiyun Xinghe Tower in such a flamboyant way must have a lot of background." Maggot in the snow analyzed conservatively. There are many dignitaries in Longyin City. There is a backstage.
"She is most likely Rong Shangqing, the wife of Su Changqing, the governor of Kyoto... Logically speaking, Su Changqing was an ordinary scholar back then. She caught the eye of Rong Shangqing because of her handsome appearance. Later, with the support of the Rong family, He can be said to be a winner in life if he has risen through the ranks, but...hehe, do you think Su Changqing has ever regretted it now?"
Qin Shou'an smiled. Neither Rong Shangqing nor Su Changqing were from the same group as him. It could even be said that they had already formed a grudge. Now they were naturally happy to watch the fun.
Nowadays, it is called romantic when a man hangs around in the house. Generally, a wife who adheres to women's ethics or is weak-tempered and has a good reputation can only tolerate it. But in a family like Rong Shangqing's where the wife is strong and the husband is weak, this is not the case. , if Rong Shangqing is unhappy, Su Changqing can only come here secretly, and there is a risk of being caught back.
Think about Du Wei, the prime minister, isn't he being managed by his wife? It is said that if you want to buy a flower basket or something for the girl you like, you have to rely on the writing fees you secretly saved.
A man must have financial power... Qin Shouan thought this, and suddenly realized that if he married Tang Wanrong as his father wished, how much financial power would he have?
Maybe it's not as good as now... Now as King Langya, he can go to the accounting office for any expenses without any obstacles.
After he marries Tang Wanrong, maybe the accountant will tell him in the future: Your Highness...this...this princess is not allowed!
Just when I was thinking about these nonsense, I saw Rong Shangqing appeared on the deck with an expressionless face again. The style of Mrs. Yin of Kyoto made the people in Caiyun Xinghe Tower tremble, and then a middle-aged man with several scratches on his face. The young man came out tremblingly and hurriedly got off the boat, almost losing his footing and falling into the river.
Seeing that the middle-aged man's face still had the handsomeness of his youth, Qin Shouan guessed that this person was Su Changqing.
Several government officials quickly helped him into an empty sedan at the back, and left with Rong Shangqing... Seeing Master Fu Yin in such a mess, Qin Shouan raised his head and laughed with everyone in the crowd, but at a glance At the third-floor window of Caiyun Xinghe Building, a woman in red stood holding a wine bottle in her hand.
I actually saw Liang Shisanniang here... Although I no longer want to investigate whether she is Tang Wanrong's person or the Queen Mother's, the revenge of being kidnapped and molested that day must be avenged.
