"Uncle, where have my father and Jixiang gone? They haven't been home for two or three days in a row, right?"
In the study in the courtyard of Zhaizi West Road in Dafu Lane, Wang Zhongxiao, who had sent Wu Shijue, Wu Xiaotuo, Yang Xiaohuan and Master Yu away together, was unhappily asking Li Fuhan, who had just returned, about Wang Fuchen's whereabouts.
Today was originally a good day for Wang Zhongxiao. On the way to Dafu Alley, Yang Xiaohuan agreed to everything... but Wu Xiaotuo appeared halfway and took Yang Xiaohuan away!
Although Wu Xiaotuo agreed to marry Wang Zhongxiao with Yang Xiaohuan, he also agreed that they would be sisters from now on. But she is a "traditional woman" and insists on visiting the court first and then going to bed. Not only did she refuse to hand herself over to Wang Zhongxiao first, she also refused to allow Yang Xiaohuan to enter Wang Zhongxiao's room before worshiping.
This is good, Wang Zhongxiao's good things have to be postponed again, and I don't know when this "baby marriage" will be consummated.
And to make this "baby marriage" successful, there is another old thing that cannot be avoided, and that is Wang Zhongxiao's unfilial father Wang Fuchen... If Wang Zhongxiao just took Yang Xiaohuan as his concubine, this matter There is no need for Wang Fuchen to participate. But now they are getting married, and they have to arrange a baby wedding. In order to make this baby marriage look more reasonable, Wang Fuchen has arranged a brother-in-law, Mrs. Yang, whom Wang Fuchen has never met before!
Although it is not Wang Fuchen's turn to make the final decision on these matters, he must be informed, and it is best to get him to nod... When he nods, good things can be pushed forward as quickly as possible, and Wang Zhongxiao can live a better life earlier. One wife and one concubine, a happy life.
In addition, Wang Zhongxiao also wanted to arrange a big contribution for his underachieving brother Wang Jizhen, and get a good job by the way. Wang Jizhen already had an official status. He was an alternate county candidate in Yunnan and an official elected to the Western Region. Without the help of Wang Zhongxiao, his younger brother, with his family background, if he wanted to be promoted, he would probably have to wait until the San Francisco Uprising.
So Wang Zhongxiao wanted his brother to share some of the credit for chasing Obei... With this credit, he would not only be able to clear the Western Selection, but also allow the Wang family to further draw a clear line with Wu Sangui.
Because Wang Fuchen, his father and his son, and Ao Bai are incompatible with each other! If Wu Sangui took in Obai, it would be impossible for him to take in Wang Fuchen and his son.
And Ao Bai's value to Wu Sangui, who wanted to rebel, was far greater than that of Wang Fuchen and his son. Obai is the ceiling of the Eight Banners' combat power. Although he is old, he still has the ability to command tens of thousands of troops to fight against the Qing army. As for the handsome men in the Qing Dynasty who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Obai, I am afraid that no one can be found now. Even if they invite Yue Le, they will not be as good as Batulu, the number one in Manchuria!
But brothers Wang Zhongxiao and Wang Jizhen waited in the West Road courtyard of Cidi in Dafu Lane until it was almost dark. When Li Fuhan and the others who went to do some decoration work in the old house in Douzhaocai Hutong came back, they did not see the "old man" who lived next door. "The King" is back!
And this is not the first time Wang Fuchen has stayed away from home... The last time Wang Zhongxiao, a filial son, saw Wang Fuchen at home was before he raided Ao Bai's house!
"Shikai, your father has been socializing a lot these days and is busy running official posts for his subordinates, so..."
"So he stayed up all night?" Wang Jizhen frowned, "Isn't he running away from office and running to Bada Hutong?"
Wang Zhongxiao's face also darkened, "That's not a place where a court official should go. Besides, he's still the Admiral of the Nine Sects, so he can't enforce the law and break the law!"
"How could it be possible? How could this be possible?" Li Fuhan shook his head repeatedly, "He really didn't go to Bada Hutong..."
"Then where did he go?" Wang Jizhen, the eldest son, was not used to his father. He continued to ask in a calm voice, "Did he go to an old friend's house? Is it the Cao family in Bean Sprout Alley? Or the princess on the street outside Dong'anmen. Mansion?"
"What?" Wang Zhongxiao was shocked, "Our father is really having an affair with the emperor's wet nurse and Dingnan Princess?"
"Why are you so surprised?" Wang Jizhen glared at his good brother, "You don't know what our father likes? You relied on your good looks and good health to flirt with women everywhere... Back then in Beijing When I was a bodyguard, I cuckolded many Eight Banners dignitaries!"
"This is so inappropriate!" Wang Zhongxiao looked indignant, "Brother, we have to take care of him!"
"Return to us?" Wang Jizhen snorted, "I can't care less about him, why should you care? You and our father have different virtues? By the way, my father's ninth aunt Taixiao Jinlian always talks about you to me. Said that you were unlucky, failed to fulfill your promise, and even caused her to receive a severe beating from our father in vain..."
"What? This old guy actually hit Xiao Jinlian?" Wang Zhongxiao became angry immediately, rolled up his sleeves and asked Li Fuhan, "Second uncle, tell me quickly, who did that old guy go to cuckold tonight?"
Li Fuhan became anxious when he heard this, and hurriedly said to Wang Zhongxiao: "Shikai, that's your father...and Heshuo Gege also has some support for you!"
"Oh, I got it!" Wang Zhongxiao stood up and said to his brother, "Dong'anmenwai Street is not far from here, let's just take a trip!"
"I...I still won't go." An angry Wang Jizhen shook her head, "Shikai, I entered Beijing secretly...and Dingnan Princess recognizes me!"
"Okay," Wang Zhongxiao said, "Then I will go alone!"
...
When Wang Zhongxiao went to Kong Sizhen's house, their unlearned father had just arrived at Kong Sizhen's Heshuo Gege residence. He was playing games and discussing with Kong Sizhen in an attic next to the back garden of Gege's house. How to be loyal to the Qing Dynasty...
It turned out that Wang Jizhen and Wang Zhongxiao, two filial sons, had misunderstood Wang Fuchen. Although he and Kong Sizhen were old friends, that was all in the past. The reason why he rekindled his old relationship with his old friend this time was mainly to serve the country and the people, and also to become the governor as soon as possible.
After all, Kong Sizhen was one of the empress dowagers, and her appointment as a vassal was also a nail in the coffin between the two vassals of Wu Sangui and Shang Kexi by the Qing court!
Once she is coaxed, Wang Fuchen's governor can be obtained earlier.
"My uncle, you haven't come to play here for a while... let me give you a shoulder first!"
The person who called Wang Fuchen "Uncle" was Wang Zhongxiao's "Aunt Zhen" Heshuodingnangegekong Sizhen. She was wearing a pink close-fitting jacket on her upper body, and she seemed to be wearing nothing underneath, showing off her good figure. . The lower body is a pair of red trousers, and the feet are bare, revealing a pair of white and slender feet.
This kind of dress is not what a princess should have, but the dress of a prostitute - the prostitutes of the Qing Dynasty did not wear skirts, only trousers. Moreover, her outfit is not the outfit of a high-end "Qingyin Xiaoban", but the outfit of the lowest prostitute. However, her appearance, figure, and the down-to-earth charm contained in her whole body and every gesture were not something that a low-class prostitute could have.
Wang Fuchen, on the other hand, was wearing shorts and long trousers, dressed as a traveler. He sat in front of a square table with some wine and food, drinking a small wine and enjoying Kong Sizhen's service. He also praised Kong Sizhen from time to time: " You old bitch are really strong, you can press it comfortably...I will reward you for this."
While talking, he actually took out two copper coins and threw them on the table.
"Thank you for the reward, uncle!" Kong Sizhen actually accepted the two coins and stuffed them into his trouser pocket.
While she was getting the money, Wang Fuchen took her into his arms and let her sit on his lap, and then whispered in her ear: "My darling, you still know how to play..." ....The emperor has said that he wants to reward me with a governor-general for my work. Otherwise, I will ask for a governor-general of Guangdong and Guangxi. How about we go to Guangdong and Guangxi together?"
"Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi?" Kong Sizhen rolled his eyes, "The muddy waters of Guangdong and Guangxi are not easy to navigate! In Guangdong alone, in addition to the Shang family of Pingfan, there is also the Shen family of Xushun Gongfu... a province There are two vassals! In addition, there are Zu Zeqing and Liu Jinzhong from Geng Jimao's group who were encircled by Wu Sangui, as well as a group of local snakes in Guangdong. In Xiangshan County, there is also the Hao'ao commercial port where the Xiyi Franji people are entrenched. Everyone They are all difficult to deal with!”
"I'm not afraid!" Wang Fuchen said with a smile, "Are we afraid that we can't suppress those demons and monsters if we join forces? Moreover, everyone knows that Wu Sangui is going to rebel. I'm afraid many people in Guangdong, Guangxi and Fujian will respond... I want to If you don't become the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, can you control the situation in Guangxi alone?"
After hearing this, Kong Sizhen leaned on Wang Fuchen's shoulder and said, "You still feel sorry for the Nu family!"
As soon as Kong Sizhen finished speaking, an older woman's voice suddenly came from the back garden: "Gege... the first-class bodyguard Wang Zhongxiao is here to visit!"
