Yan Qi smiled: "Is Master Kong Chen too worried? Maybe Jie Sanjia really has two brushes."
Kong Chen shook his head: "Jie Sanjia just took office, and he brought Xie Siwen, a big businessman from the capital, in an attempt to grab a piece of the pie. Isn't this too ugly? Jiangsu and Zhejiang's economy has its own system, and suddenly a businessman from the capital intervenes. It will cause a stir.”
"In particular, Suzhou weaving has a lot of power. If you want to do well, the first thing is to be fair, just and open. However, just because Xie Sanjia just took office, he brought businessmen from the capital, and he was from his family. , it has nothing to do with fairness and justice. Moreover, when he meets businessmen, he is always secretive, never in the government office, and has no record of it by the clerk. All these things are worrying. "
Yan Qi asked: "Is it possible that Suzhou will just let Jie Sanjia parachute into Suzhou?"
Kong Chen was a little angry: "Who among us junior officials would dare to make arrogant comments on the matters decided by Prime Minister Yang?"
Yan Qi smiled narrowly and shook his head: "I think flies don't bite seamless eggs. There must be a reason why Jie Sanjia parachuted into Suzhou. Otherwise, even with the dignity of the Prime Minister, he couldn't do it wantonly without making excuses. .”
Kong Chen looked at Yan Qi in surprise: "I'm really surprised that Mr. Yan is so familiar with official affairs."
Weird ass.
Seventh Brother has been doing this in his last life and is extremely proficient.
Yan Qi couldn't say it, but smiled and said: "Self-taught, self-taught."
Kong Chen sighed: "Master Peng Ran worked as a weaver in Suzhou when he was forty-five years old. It has been ten years now. Master Peng is dedicated to the public and is not greedy for money. Although he lacks courage, he is prudent and strives for progress. He has worked hard to bring Jiang and Zhejiang to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. The economy was opened up and a huge network was formed, which made an outstanding contribution to the imperial court's tax collection."
"However, Lord Peng has a hidden illness."
Yan Qi asked: "What hidden disease?"
Kong Chen lowered his voice: "Master Peng has a head problem. There is a blood bag right at the temple."
His face was full of mystery: "This head disease is easy to avoid, but once it occurs, it is extremely painful. In the past ten years, it has only occurred seven times in total. However, in the past month, it has occurred three times."
Yan Qi was shocked: "It only happened seven times in ten years, but three times in the past month? This is not scientific at all. Someone must have tampered with it.
Kong Chen cautiously said: "It is said that there used to be a miracle doctor named Hua Wubing who diagnosed Peng Ran's head disease. Hua Wubing once prescribed a prescription for Mr. Peng and told him: as long as you take the medicine according to the prescription, and don't Eating okra can alleviate the onset of headaches. Therefore, Mr. Peng never dared to eat okra."
"However, in the past month, Mr. Peng went out for inspection, and the food was tampered with, and there was even okra in it. Mr. Peng suffered from the attack and suffered a headache three times in a row."
Yan Qi sneered: "This is interesting. However, even if Mr. Peng has a headache and is in excruciating pain, as long as he gets through it, it will still be fine. Can't Suzhou Weaving still continue to serve?"
"The strange thing is here."
Kong Chen whispered: "The Prime Minister summoned Master Peng to Beijing on the grounds that Master Peng had made great contributions to the imperial court. He asked the imperial doctors from the imperial hospital to treat Master Peng and reported the matter to the emperor."
"The emperor also believed that this move was for the sake of Mr. Peng's health, so he approved it. Mr. Peng couldn't refuse the emperor's approval and could only let it go."
Yan Qi was also startled: "Oh, let me go, Prime Minister Yang is so powerful. If you put it that way, Peng Ran only left Suzhou temporarily, and his resume is still made in Suzhou?"
Kong Chen nodded: "Yes, Mr. Peng's visit to Beijing for medical treatment is not considered retirement, it can only be regarded as retirement."
Yan Qi interfaced: "However, Suzhou Weaving is very important and cannot be left alone for a day. Therefore, Xie Sanjia was ordered to 'take on a big responsibility' at the critical moment to succeed Peng Ran and serve as Suzhou Weaving. However, he is Suzhou Weaving's replacement. That’s all. As long as Mr. Peng gets better, Jie Sanjia will have to give way, right?"
"That's right. Mr. Yan's understanding of the mystery is indeed unique."
Kong Chen's eyes lit up: "It's just that Mr. Peng's head disease is almost incurable. Although the doctor at Taiyuan Hospital is very powerful, who dares to touch the blood tumor on the head? The head is the head of the six Yangs and cannot be operated on. .”
"Everyone knows this! Therefore, even though Xie Sanjia is taking over the position of Suzhou Weaving Company in Mr. Peng's place, Mr. Peng has been ill for a long time, and Xie Sanjia's position must be stable."
At this point, Kong Chen sighed: "Such opportunistic means are what makes me heartbroken the most. Suzhou weaving is the top priority, how can we make such random appointments? How can we treat the imperial government's affairs as child's play?" Isn’t it chilling?”
Kong Chen drank several glasses of wine and became drunk.
Yan Qi smiled and thought: "Master Kong Chen is too pessimistic."
"pessimistic?"
Kong Chen was so drunk that he couldn't stop talking. He slammed the table and said bitterly: "Jie Sanjia just came to Suzhou and he rushed directly into the office. He couldn't even hand over the words and drove Mr. Peng away." Get out."
"At that time, Mr. Peng happened to have a headache and was unable to move. Jie Sanjia ignored him and forcibly carried Mr. Peng out of the government office. Tell me, how can I not be pessimistic about such a wanton person? Mr. Peng, for the sake of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Economically, I have worked hard and made great contributions to the court. However, when I retire, I end up like this, how can I not be pessimistic? "
Yan Qi also felt that it was too much.
If you are a smart person, you shouldn't do this.
Isn’t Jie Sanjia smart?
impossible.
This just shows that Jie Sanjia is afraid that Peng Ran will be troublesome, and wants to drive Peng Ran out of Suzhou in a hurry, so that he can completely take possession of Suzhou's weaving rights.
Only in this way can we deploy people to benefit ourselves.
Haha, Jie Sanjia, what a selfish person.
Yan Qi asked Kong Chen: "Is Lord Peng being urged to leave Suzhou and go to the capital for treatment?"
Kong Chen nodded: "Prime Minister Yang sent three seals in one day, urging Mr. Peng to come to Beijing. Alas, even if Mr. Peng wanted to linger for a few more days, he couldn't. Just today, Mr. Peng was driven away by Jie Sanjia Woolen cloth."
Yan Qidao: "So, Master Peng will leave Beijing soon?"
Kong Chen nodded: "Leave Beijing in three days."
Yan Qi looked at Kong Chen: "Can you arrange for me to meet Master Peng?"
Kong Chen frowned: "Mr. Peng was disheartened. He closed the door to thank the guests. He also promised that he would not see anyone."
"Today, the Suzhou Prefect came to see him off, but he turned him away. Even if I went, I wouldn't be able to be more honorable than the Suzhou Prefect."
Yan Qi smiled: "Are you really not seeing anyone?"
Kong Chen nodded.
Yan Qi shook his head slightly: "I don't think so."
"Why did Mr. Yan say that?"
"If Mr. Peng really doesn't see anyone, he will leave tonight or tomorrow morning. How can he stay for another three days? Isn't that unnecessary?"
"Huh?"
Kong Chen was stunned: "Master Yan is very reasonable."
Yan Qi patted his forehead: "Master Kong Chen, please think about it for me. Who is Master Peng waiting for?"
