Chapter 234
But before Song Jiyun could speak, Immortal Lord Baoguang jumped out.
He pointed at Eunuch Wan and cursed loudly: "Don't talk nonsense here! You just talk about things. What do you think I do? What does the matter of your royal kiln factory have to do with me? I just eat it." I've eaten a grain of rice or a sip of water, and you're going to bury me with such nonsense?"
Eunuch Wan obviously thought that the people who came could control Immortal Baoguang. He didn't even look at him. He just invited everyone to sit down on the Grand Master's chair in front of the statue of Immortal Baoguang. He also personally served tea and water snacks.
Immortal Lord Baoguang was extremely angry, but when Master Wang glanced over at him, he immediately stopped and shrank aside.
This reaction was a bit too intense.
Song Jiyun was secretly surprised and couldn't help but think about it in his heart.
It seems that Eunuch Wan came well prepared today. Not only did he invite so many officials, but all of them had high official positions.
She is at a disadvantage now because she knows nothing about the current political situation, and she doesn't even know the identities of these people.
If Eunuch Wan was not here for her, she could still delay time and find a way to find out the identities, origins, and relationships between these people in the shortest possible time. Unfortunately, she was being stared at by Eunuch Wan, so she probably couldn't avoid being watched.
But that Immortal Lord Baoguang... She didn't expect him to be so cowardly.
Song Jiyun's heart sank to the bottom of his heart.
What happened today is probably going to be difficult.
She quickly glanced at Eunuch Wan and the others.
Mr. Wang didn't know whether he was deliberately ignoring Immortal Baoguang or simply looked down upon him. He didn't even give him an extra look. Instead, he was chatting with Eunuch Wan. Judging from their posture, they seemed to be very familiar with each other.
Song Jiyun's eyes were dim.
Fortunately, when she was negotiating with Mr. Wu and others in Shuixie yesterday, she felt that Magistrate Jiang had limited restraint on Eunuch Wan, and insisted not to ask Magistrate Jiang to take action. Otherwise, when Magistrate Jiang comes, he will be crushed by these people.
Seeing an opportunity, she pulled Immortal Baoguang to her side and turned slightly sideways to ensure that Eunuch Wan and others wouldn't be able to see everything at a glance. Then she whispered: "I am the one who was told by Eunuch Wan The person who sold the emperor to Nanjing. If we work together, we will both benefit, if we divide, we will suffer two harms. Make your choice quickly."
Immortal Baoguang was stunned.
Although he was entrusted by Song Jiyun, he had never met Song Jiyun.
He looked at Mr. Wang, who looked gentle because of Eunuch Wan's diligent flattery, gritted his teeth and said "OK".
Song Jiyun breathed a sigh of relief and asked him quickly: "Who is Mr. Wang?"
"Chief Envoy of Jiangxi Province." He told several other people at once, "The one named Huang is the envoy to the Imperial Guard, and the one surnamed Xu is the Commander-in-Chief of the City. The one surnamed Wang was born as an official, and he was transferred to the Imperial Palace as the Censor." The one named Huang is a disciple of the former Minister of Civil Affairs, and the one named Xu is the younger brother of Duke Dingguo of the capital."
She asked, “Who can help us speak?”
"The surname is Xu." Immortal Baoguang said without thinking, "He is very greedy for money. He was dismissed from his post at the Five-City Governor's Mansion in the capital for accepting bribes. He followed the path of Concubine Wan Gui and went to Jiangxi to become the commander of the capital. Made it."
"How are they related to you?"
Baoguang Xianjun said: "I have no friendship with the person named Huang. The person named Wang once impeached my father, and my father was held accountable by the emperor because of him. The person named Xu has only been here for a month, and this is my third time. Meet him. He should better talk."
His father?
Song Jiyun's mind turned around and he realized that the "father" he was talking about was Qin Fang, the chief eunuch in charge of rituals.
Even Qin Fang dares to impeach and hold him to account, and he can also serve as chief envoy in Jiangxi. He is a great person!
No wonder Immortal Baoguang is so afraid of him.
Song Jiyun asked Immortal Baoguang: "Is there any way you can bribe the commander of Xudu to speak for us?" He also emphasized, "I will pay for it!"
Immortal Baoguang was obviously desperate for money. In this case, his expression became lighter when he heard this, and he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, this matter is taken care of by me."
He called an attendant beside him and whispered a few words.
Of course, Song Jiyun would not put his hope in these people. The temporary money relationship was too superficial after all.
In just a short time, several people on Eunuch Wan's side had already sat down in a hurry. Mr. Wang even asked, "Who is Song Jiyun?"
Song Jiyun didn't want to offend him, but he couldn't bow down. Otherwise, once she loses her character, she will no longer be able to control the thousands of kilns and workshops in Jingdezhen, which is the biggest loss and gain for her.
Therefore, even if today is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, she can only find a way to get through it!
She saluted Master Wang generously.
Mr. Wang was quite surprised. He smiled and said to the people around him: "No wonder you dare to sell the porcelain presented by the emperor to Nanjing. You are really brave!"
The others laughed.
After Song Jiyun waited for these people to laugh, he said in a respectful but not condescending tone: "Your Excellency, thank you. The common people have no choice. Eunuch Wan issued a new policy this year. All kilns and workshops in Jingdezhen must burn porcelain according to the quota assigned by the imperial kiln factory." . The imperial kiln factory did not allocate quotas for our kiln factory, so our family cannot make porcelain, so I took the risk and went to Nanjing."
She also complained: "Otherwise there are so many inspection departments along the way, who would be willing to travel far away!"
The imperial kiln factory did not allocate quotas to their kiln factory! ! !
Not only Eunuch Wan, but also the people in the main hall secretly clicked their tongues after hearing this.
Song Jiyun really dared to say this in front of a third-grade official.
What if we are investigated?
Everyone couldn't help but lower their heads.
Eunuch Wan opened his eyes wide.
Song Jiyun once again refreshed his understanding of her.
This woman is really brave.
Seeing the strong words on Song Jiyun's face, he laughed angrily.
"Please be careful!" He couldn't help but argue with Song Jiyun, "The Song family kiln factory was famous when it was in the hands of this girl's father, but since this girl has become the talker of the kiln factory, relying on her The secret recipe left by Song Youliang is domineering and has a very high self-esteem. You can tell by looking at her like this. She has never taken the imperial kiln factory seriously, and she did not come to the imperial kiln factory for bidding.
"I felt pity for her young age and her excellent porcelain-making skills, so I thought of a way to force her to bake a certain number of porcelains for the Royal Kiln Factory every year. When it came to her mouth, she actually said, "I won't let her bake it." Porcelain.
"If I hadn't asked you, sir, to uphold justice, I would have jumped into the Yellow River and I wouldn't have been able to clean myself!"
Song Jiyun felt that it was meaningless to say anything at this point.
Her only chance now is to delay time and let Baoguang Immortal Lord's people pass the message to Commander Xu, so that she may have a chance of survival.
She and Wang Gonggong argued: "The success of the Songjia Kiln Factory depends entirely on the insight of the Royal Kiln Factory. How dare I disrespect the Royal Kiln Factory! You said that I don't take the Royal Kiln Factory seriously, Yu Kiln Factory I didn’t go to the factory to bid, but I didn’t receive any notice about the kiln royal factory’s bidding at all!”
The two of them exchanged words with each other and started a quarrel and lawsuit.
But Song Jiuyun was always watching out of the corner of his eyes to see if anyone was approaching Commander Xu Du.
