Wang Wenzuo didn't speak and was silent for a long time: "Just step back first! You don't have to worry about this anymore!"
"I obey!" Yijirenbod bowed.
After Igilianbod left, Wang Wenzuo stood up and looked out the window. In the yard below, the groom was washing his clothes. According to the arrangement, he would go out of the city to hunt in a while. The naughty beast swung its tail and sprinkled the groom and sentries. Wang Wenzuo could even hear the groom cursing.
If only life could be this simple and fun! Wang Wenzuo thought to himself that although Wang Ence had no blood relationship with him and he did not want the other person to die, in this position, he had to do some things that he did not want to do but had to do.
"Sancho!"
"Master, what's the matter?" Sancho hurriedly came in from the outside and bowed.
"I have something to do in the afternoon. The hunting will be postponed to the day after tomorrow. Please tell others who are participating!"
"Yes, I will go and give my orders immediately! Master, what do you have to do this afternoon?"
"Go and find Wang Ence yourself. I have something to tell him!"
"Yes!" Although Sancho didn't know the whole story, he knew it was definitely not simple. To this day, Wang Wenzuo rarely asked Sancho to invite someone in person. He bowed to Wang Wenzuo, exited the door, and immediately called his men and gave them instructions.
Wang Wenzuo returned to the cases, picked up his pen and began to review the documents, but soon he found that he was so upset that he had to put down his pen, stood up again, and paced back and forth in the room. Isn't this very simple? It was the most advantageous choice to end the matter by dying alone, and it was indeed Wang Ence who caused all this. If that ignorant, stupid boy died, no one would be sad except for his family. Then why are you upset? Aren't these hands already covered in blood? Damn it, when did I become so pretentious and mysophobic? Wang Wenzuo laughed at himself in his heart.
A knock on the door woke Wang Wenzuo out of his thoughts. He raised his head and found that it was Cui Hongdu. He said with a smile: "Sanlang, let me tell you some good news. Miss Cui is here in Chengdu!"
"Miss Cui?" Wang Wenzuo was stunned. Before he could react, Cui Hongdu smiled and said: "Sanlang, you are so heartless. She came so far away to look for her husband, but you can't remember it. Why don't you let others know about it? Are you so sad? Quick, pack up quickly and go out to greet us!"
"Oh, oh, it's Yunying who's here? Why didn't you let me know?" Only then did Wang Wenzuo realize that it was his wife, Cui Yunying, the legitimate daughter of the Cui family in Qingzhou.
"She is your first wife, what kind of notice do you need when she comes?" Cui Hongdu said with a smile: "Besides, a long separation is better than a new marriage. Isn't this also a surprise?"
"Okay, okay! You are always right!" Wang Wenzuo shook his head: "Where is he?"
"It's at my house!" Cui Hongdu said with a smile: "Don't change, just go out like this? Otherwise, if you wait too long, my wife will get angry and won't let you go to bed at night. Don't blame me!"
Wang Wenzuo was pulled out of the door by Cui Hongdu. He got on his horse and took a dozen of his followers to Cui's house. After entering, he straightened his clothes a little and then followed Cui Hongdu to the back house. As soon as he entered the door of the back house, Cui Hongdu Then she said loudly: "Seventh sister, seventh sister, come out quickly and see who I bring to you!"
Following the words, a familiar figure came down from the hall. She jogged a few steps towards Wang Wenzuo, then turned into a walking step. She bowed down and said, "I came uninvited. Please forgive me!"
When Wang Wenzuo saw Cui Yunying's handsome appearance and elegant demeanor, which were even more colorful than when they left, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart. He rushed forward to help him up and said, "Why did Yunying say that! I used to be an official in Songzhou. It's a remote place, so I didn't invite you to come; now that I've been transferred to Chengdu, I wanted to invite you to come, but I didn't expect you to come first!"
"When I heard that my husband was promoted, I was really happy, so I didn't care so much and came here myself!" Cui Yunying smiled like a flower: "By the way, you should be damned if you haven't congratulated your husband on such a happy event!" After that, she broke away from Wang Wenzuo's arm and took a step back to salute.
"That's all!" Wang Wenzuo stopped Cui Yunying from bowing down: "This manager probably won't be able to serve for a few more days, so I'll just skip the congratulations!"
"Where do you start talking about this?" Cui Yunying's face changed drastically: "What happened?"
"Something happened in Chang'an!" Wang Wenzuo whispered: "We'll discuss the details when we get back!"
Cui Yunying thought that it involved matters between the DPRK and China and was not appropriate to talk about here, so she nodded, but there was a little more sadness on her face.
Wang Wenzuo and Cui Yunying thanked Cui Hongdu and his wife and got into the carriage together. Cui Yunying was worthy of being a daughter of a high family. She was not in a hurry to ask about such matters, but just waited silently for Wang Wenzuo to speak.
"Here's what happened!" Wang Wenzuo hesitated for a moment and offered his tribute of Shu brocade, but there was mixed gauze in it, which happened to be given to the passing garrison, which caused a rebellion. When discussing punishment, the prince spoke to the prime minister for it. There was a conflict, and the incident that angered the emperor was recounted. Finally, he said: "Because of this incident, the prince was also reprimanded by the emperor. It is estimated that I will also be implicated. Most likely this manager will not be able to continue!"
"So that's what happened!" Cui Yunying looked calm: "That's not surprising. It involves the internal affairs of the Tian family, so it's not surprising what happened. Lang Jun, you should indeed be prepared, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. At least the Crown Prince’s friendship for you is unquestionable. As long as the Crown Prince is fine, you will only be dormant for a few years at most, and one day you will soar into the sky!”
"Ahem!" Hearing what Cui Yunying said, Wang Wenzuo was a little embarrassed and said with a wry smile: "It doesn't matter whether I fly to the sky in the future. I just need to rest for a few years. It just so happens that I have been running around every day these years, so early I just want to take a good rest for a while!”
"Yes!" Cui Yunying said with a smile: "We were newlyweds and were sent to Luoyang by an edict from the emperor, and then we parted ways. It was rare to see each other. If we could really rest for a few years, we would have become concubines. wish!"
"Hahaha!" Wang Wenzuo laughed when he heard this: "You heard that I was going to be demoted and you didn't even care?"
"What's there to worry about!" Cui Yunying said with a smile: "Have you forgotten? I am the daughter of the Cui family. There are many officials in my family. How can it be that someone from a small family and a small family can get an official title from the imperial court? Are you looking bigger than the sky? With your husband’s talents and the care of the prince, if you want to be an official, it’s just a matter of care, so there’s nothing to worry about!”
Wang Wenzuo was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed. He had only been with this new wife for a few days, and he didn't understand her temperament. But now it seems that at least she is not shallow in terms of knowledge and bearing. No wonder the new rich at that time They are all willing to pay a high dowry to marry a daughter of the Cui family, which is indeed unusual.
"Husband, why are you laughing?" Cui Yunying said angrily, "Is it possible that I said something wrong?"
"It's not wrong, but things in the world are constantly changing, and no one can tell what the future will be like! Take the prince's case for example! As far as I know, the prince's health is not very good, and he is often sick!"
"Oh!" Cui Yunying was stunned when he heard the words, and immediately understood the meaning of Wang Wenzuo's words: "The matter of life and death is unclear and difficult to know, but even if you are not an official, hunting at home in the spring and autumn, studying in the summer and winter, there is nothing wrong with this life. OK!"
Wang Wenzuo nodded. Cui Yunying's words just scratched his itch. Just as he was about to say something, the carriage stopped and he heard Sancho's voice coming from outside the carriage: "Master, the young man has arrived. Waiting in the side hall!"
"Since your husband has something to do, I won't bother you!" Cui Yunying didn't wait for Wang Wenzuo to speak, then smiled and said: "It won't be too late to come back to accompany me when the matter is over!"
Wang Wenzuo nodded, the original cheerful atmosphere in the vehicle disappeared, and he had to face real troubles again. He coughed and got out of the carriage: "Sancho, you go and take Madam to the backyard to rest first, and then come to the side yard!"
"As you command!"
When Wang Wenzuo walked into the side hall, Wang Ence stood up hurriedly and saluted his nominal brother. Wang Wenzuo nodded and even showed a smile on his face: "Ence, how are you doing in Chengdu during this time? ?But everything goes well?"
Wang Ence was somewhat flattered and replied: "Brother, I am living a good life in Chengdu. For your sake, everyone has helped me a lot and everything has gone smoothly!"
"That's good, that's good!" Wang Wenzuo sat down and said with a smile: "Sit down and talk, you're not outside, and you don't have to be so polite in private!"
"Yes, yes!" Wang Ence responded. Seeing Wang Wenzuo sit firmly, he sat down carefully. He didn't know why Wang Wenzuo was so friendly today, but this was always a good thing. Could it be that he had done a good job some time ago and gave it to him? It left a good impression, so I praised myself.
"How is your father at home? How is the situation over there in Qingzhou?" Wang Wenzuo asked a few more questions about his hometown. Wang Ence answered cautiously, and finally boldly said: "Brother Wenzuo, I didn't know the heights of the world like I used to do. During this time, I gradually understood what a great thing you have done. I also ask you, sir, to remember it in your heart and forgive me!"
"Haha!" Wang Wenzuo smiled: "This is all in the past, do you understand? It's all in the past!"
"Yes, yes!" Wang Ence was secretly happy when he saw Wang Wenzuo say this, and was about to say something. At this time, Sancho came in from the outside and said to Wang Wenzuo: "Master, madam and everyone have made arrangements!"
"Madam?" Wang Ence was stunned when he heard this: "Yes -"
"That's the one from the Cui family in Qingzhou!" Wang Wenzuo said with a smile: "I was in Songzhou some time ago, and it was not suitable for a woman to come there, so I didn't let her come! This time I came to Chengdu, and she listened He said that since I got promoted, I came here on my own!"
"Congratulations, brother!" Wang Ence said quickly.
Wang Wenzuo nodded, stretched out his hand to summon Sancho, and whispered a few words in his ear. Sancho just nodded repeatedly but said nothing. Wang Ence knew that Sanqiu was Wang Wenzuo's confidant, so he must have some important matters to give, so he did not avoid him. If he asked for avoidance again, he would be ignored. So he concentrated on studying the patterns on the pillars next to him. After studying for a long time, he heard Wang Wenzuo say: "Ence, I have something to do and I have to go out first. Please wait here for a while!"
"Brother, please help yourself!" Wang Ence hurriedly stood up to see him off. Wang Wenzuo stood up, waved to Wang Ence, and went out. However, Sancho did not follow Wang Wenzuo out, but stood at the door with a cold expression and a terrifying gaze.
Wang Ence coughed. He didn't know how to talk to Sancho, so he had to pretend not to care and looked at the ceiling. Sancho walked to the door, whispered a few instructions, and then two lean men came in from the outside. He led the men to Wang Ence, and then Wang Ence felt something was wrong: "Sancho, what are you going to do? What to do?"
"Nothing!" Sancho smiled, his face suddenly turned cold, and he shouted: "Take it!"
The two men grabbed Wang Ence's arms, twisted them, carried them behind his back, and tied them with a cowhide rope. Only then did Wang Ence react and shouted angrily: "Sancho, are you crazy? What are you doing?"
Sancho did not answer, but looked at Wang Ence coldly, as if he was looking at a dead man. The two men moved very quickly, and tied up Wang Ence's hands and feet with a few clicks, and put a belt around Wang Ence's throat. , but did not exert any force, waiting for Sancho's order, Wang Ence said angrily: "Sancho, if you treat me like this, my brother will not let you go!"
"I am disposing of you just on the order of my master!" Sancho said coldly.
"Impossible? My brother just praised me, how could he kill me? I'm not guilty! Sancho, are you doing this on your own?" Wang Ence said anxiously.
"You have caused a huge disaster and implicated my lord. If it were someone else, it would have destroyed the family!" Sancho sneered: "Thanks to God's help, my lord was able to protect himself. How dare you say that you are not guilty? If you hadn't been The brother of the lord's mother-in-law has long since lost his head, so how can he keep his body intact?" After saying that, he waved his hand and shouted: "Do it!"
The two Mohe men immediately tightened the belt around Wang Ence's neck. Wang Ence struggled hard, but could not move. After a moment, his whole body became limp, his eyes rolled white, and he died.
Sancho checked Wang Ence's breathing, then rolled his eyes to confirm that the other person had died. Then he ordered the two Mohe men to collect the body and go to Wang Wenzuo to recover his life!
————————————————————————
"Master!" Sancho stood outside the door and said in a deep voice: "The matter is done!"
Wang Wenzuo was joking with his wife when he heard Sancho's voice and stood up: "Just wait a moment, I'll be right back!"
"Speak slowly, I just need to tidy up the things in the house!" Cui Yunying said with a smile.
"Well!" Wang Wenzuo walked out of the house and saw Sanqiu standing under the locust tree in the courtyard, with his hands hanging down, and asked: "Is everything done?"
"It's all done! Do you want to test it?"
