Chapter 1036 This Kid Rong Leng Has a Dirty Mind and Blood.
When Sima Xi received the report outside the door, he was surprised. He stood up from behind the desk full of documents, wiping his hands and walking in a hurry.
The yamen servant below is the one who came to report.
The yamen servant had obviously seen the official badge of the big shot outside the door, and said in a cautious tone: "Sir, the young minister of Dali Temple...why did you come to our Qingzhou? Could it be...for these recent cases?"
"The cases were only reported recently. It takes half a month to come from Kyoto at a fast pace. It must not be for this matter."
Sima Xi said this, but he was very worried in his heart. No matter what, he would not dare to suffer the consequences of the people in Dali Temple.
Rushing outside the door, Sima Xi saw the handsome young man who was looking around and looking bored. He hurriedly straightened his sleeves and cautiously stepped forward to salute.
Fang Ruozhu made a tie, asked him to stand up, and said, "We haven't seen each other for many years, Lord Sima, do you still remember me?"
Sima Xigan smiled and nodded; "No matter what you said, the official will naturally remember you. If it hadn't been appreciated by the imperial court, I would be just a scholar who failed the exam, running a street vendor somewhere, selling calligraphy for a living."
When Sima Xi took the scientific examination, the chief invigilator of that session was Fang Di. There is a saying in the literary circle that regardless of the mentor, the examiner will be regarded as the teacher of the students who took the scientific examination. .
Usually in the civil service circle, it is about mentoring and following. Only with the recommendation of a teacher can you integrate into this circle and go further.
Sima Xi's teacher is Fang Di.
He was said to be a teacher, but because of the reference of Fang Di's own students that year, he was pushed out by Sima Xi. Fang Di actually didn't like Sima Xi very much.
For the sake of appearance, he had always been tepid towards him. Later, Sima Xi was sent to Qingzhou, and Fang Di didn't even try to find a way for him. If he hadn't been smart and knowledgeable, he would have colluded with the Fu family and later committed suicide. He found a way and stepped onto the ship of the Third Prince. Now, he is just a petty official who can be rubbed and crushed.
Sima Xi has a very normal relationship with Fang Di, but because he is not the other's disciple in the first place and only has a reputation, they respect him as a master and have no contact with each other.
Today, Fang Ruozhu suddenly came to Qingzhou and mentioned his old friendship as soon as he opened his mouth. This made Sima Xi puzzled. What did this person want to do?
Sima Xi remained vigilant, but the young minister of Dali Temple stopped talking. He glanced around his courtyard with lowered eyes and asked him where he would stay tonight.
Sima Xi was shocked, thinking that if you were sent from Kyoto to Qingzhou for political reasons, you should stay in the post house.
But thinking about the people living in the post house now, Sima Xi didn't dare to drive people there, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Do you need me to arrange an inn for you?"
Fang Ruozhu said "tsk" and frowned slightly: "You can't even find a guest room in this government office?"
Sima Xi's face turned green, and he responded with a dry smile: "I will prepare a guest room for you, sir."
The guest rooms in the government office were not good, not to mention shabby, and even the bedding and sheets were shabby. Sima Xi did not dare to give Fang Ruozhu such housing conditions.
Not only did he find the best guest room for Fang Ruozhu, but he also sent people to his home to bring his private bedding for bedding.
Fang Ruozhu didn't say he was satisfied or dissatisfied with the room. He just leaned lazily on the chair, propped his head for a long time, and asked Sima Xi, "Are you not going to disturb Mr. Sima?"
What can Sima Xi say?
He shook his head with a smile on his face and said: "I don't want to bother you if you have anything to say, sir. I just wonder if you have political affairs when you come to Qingzhou this time? If so, is there any place where you need to serve as an official?"
"You want to work for me?" Fang Ruozhu raised half of his lips.
Sima Xi's scalp went numb and he didn't dare to say anything.
Fang Ruozhu snorted: "I'm just passing by. I can't stay for two days, so there's no need to be nervous."
Sima Xi just needs to deal with it calmly and pretend that he is not nervous.
After the people were settled, Sima Xi came out of the guest room and asked the Yamen servant: "Where is Mr. Liu? Where is the Third Prince? Did you see him?"
The yamen servant shook his head: "You two went out earlier and haven't come back yet. Sir, would you like to invite the younger one?"
Sima Xi hesitated and said: "No need to invite me, just say that the young minister of Dali Temple is in the Yamen, so that you two adults can understand."
The Yamen servant responded and left.
Sima Xi stood outside the corridor, looked back at the shabby threshold of the guest room, and felt scratched in his heart.
…
Liu Wei and Rong Leng were not in the Yamen, the Post House, or the Liulian Alley.
They were in a big ship in the harbor.
The boat has two floors and is very spectacular.
Liu Wei stood by the corridor of the cabin on the second floor, looking at the mottled and bloody walls in the room next to her, and asked Rong Leng in front of him: "Why are you here? Where is King Quan?"
Rong Leng pulled her forward and walked through the empty boathouses one after another until he reached the one at the end.
Inside, King Quan was indeed there, and he was not the only one.
Xingyi stood next to King Quan. When he heard the movement outside the door, he turned around and saw two familiar faces. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at his master, waiting for his master's next order.
King Quan seemed to have expected that these two people would come, and he was not surprised, but he was a little unhappy: "You would be filial to dig a trap for my uncle."
When Liu Wei heard this title, he knew he was talking about Rong Leng, and looked at Rong Leng unconsciously.
Rong Leng's face was calm and expressionless. He only asked Liu Wei to sit down and glanced at Xingyi.
King Quan groaned and waved his hand: "Go out and wait."
Xingyi left in response, and when he walked to the door, he gave Liu Wei a special look.
After Xingyi left, King Quan sat down and asked Rong Leng with a straight face: "Have you guessed it a long time ago?"
Rong Leng sat down opposite him, pulled Liu Wei and asked her to sit next to him, and then said: "Those who are capable work hard. My nephew trusts the emperor's uncle."
"Tsk." King Quan laughed out loud: "Who cares about your trust?"
Rong Leng said nothing.
King Quan knew that his nephew definitely did not know his fault and was not going to admit it. After holding it in for a while, he had no choice but to hold his breath and ask: "Tell me, what are the conditions?"
Rong Leng looked at Liu Wei.
Liu Wei looked confused and had no idea what the two people were talking about.
King Quan was surprised and pointed at Liu Wei: "She doesn't know?"
Rong Leng shook his head.
King Quan calmed down a bit and complained fiercely to Liu Wei: "This guy in your family is not a good guy. Let me know that Fu Hongmei, the old boy, had sex with his son. A dog bites a dog's hair. What kind of rare treasure was involved! I guessed that the treasure he was talking about was exactly what I was looking for. I thought he was selling me a favor and letting me take the thing away. Of course, in return, I knew what he meant. Don't you want me to come forward to contain the Fu family? I agreed, it's not a big deal! However, what this black-hearted bastard wants is not that simple at all! This brat's eyes and blood are dirty, even his intestines are dirty. He has more pleats than others, I tell you, break up with him as soon as possible, you cannot marry such a man, and if you do, you will suffer for the rest of your life!"
King Quan became angry as he spoke, and at the end of his speech, he began to attack him personally.
Liu Wei didn't quite understand. She looked at Rong Leng and asked with her eyes - Why did you stimulate him?
