Kingdom of Heaven and Han

In a small pavilion on the second floor of Yichunyuan Restaurant, Mo Yuanwai was drinking with Chen Xiaohui and Lu Zongyuan.Beside him, a big black-faced man and a white scholar accompanied him.

Suddenly, a man ran upstairs quickly.Arriving at Mo Yuanwai's pavilion, he bowed to Mo Yuanwai repeatedly.

Seeing that something was wrong, Mo Yuanwai complained to Chen Xiaohui and Lu Zongyuan, and got out of the court.

The man took a few breaths, and said to Mo Yuanwai, "Yuanwai, something happened to Han Chunchun."

Mo Yuanwai looked calm, and said to the man: "Don't worry, take a few breaths before talking. Han Chunchun is raising a baby at the Tongfu Inn, what can happen?"

The man said: "Today, an official came to the Tongfu Inn, who said he was an official who collected folk songs. The residence arranged by the inn happened to be next to Han Chunchun. Chunchun was raising a baby these days, and I think it was because he was restless, and had some conflicts with that official. I can't die, Chunchun made trouble for no reason, and offended that guest severely."

Mo Yuanwai heard this, frowned, and his eyes suddenly became sharp.

The man said: "I have asked someone to inquire, and the wind-collecting official is not a high-ranking official, but an official similar to the county's head book or county lieutenant."

Mo Yuanwai said: "No matter how young his official is, a prostitute like Han Chunchun can offend him? Not relying on me, who in Xin'an County would take care of a woman like Han Chunchun? She didn't use my name to offend officials."

After speaking, Mo Yuanwai bowed his head and thought for a while.He said: "Go and find out what this official does. I've never heard of a wind-collecting official before. Ask again, what does this official like and where he likes to go, come back and tell me."

The man said well, and hurried away.

Yuanwai Mo thought for a while before returning to the pavilion.Said: "Just now there is some family matter, but it makes me worry."

Chen Xiaohui said: "If we can help, Yuanwai must ask. These days, Yuanwai often invites us to drink and eat meat, and I feel very sorry."

Mo Yuanwai said: "We are just congenial, so get together and don't see outsiders. It's not a big deal in my family, I will handle it myself."

One or two years ago, Yuanwai Mo was just a rich man in the countryside, and Yichunyuan Restaurant was also called Sunjia Restaurant.The owner of the store, Sun Yuanwai, and the county magistrate and inspector at that time sang songs every day and had fun every night.When Wang Xiaolie arrived, Yuanwai Sun's family fled north, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.The Sun's restaurant was in ruins, and no one came to the door.Mo Yuanwai saw the opportunity, bought it at a low price, changed its name to Yiyuanchun, and managed it with great success in less than a year.

At that time, Mo Yuanwai was just a local rich man who came to the county to open a restaurant, and he was not very eye-catching.He opened a restaurant and asked others to take care of him.

At that time, there were three powerful figures in Xin'an City.A baggage clerk in a silk and satin shop, a baby clerk in a hotel warehouse, and a clerk in a grain store.These three people have a lot of money, each dominates one side, and plays a pivotal role in Xin'an County.However, Wang Xiaolie's policy is that all commercial banks and guilds are government-supervised and privately run, and they are supervised by officials.The three members were dissatisfied, and ran against the supervising officials openly and secretly, and were cleaned up within a few months.

It was the three heads of the line who were cleared away, and there was a power vacuum in Xin'an County, and Mo Yuanwai saw the gap to rise.

Different from the powerful figures before, Mo Yuanwai was kind on the surface and never offended anyone.Conflicts with others are always done secretly, and the strikes are steady and ruthless.In particular, Mo Yuanwai never offends officials. As long as he is an official, Mo Yuanwai respects them politely.

It is this feature that makes Mo Yuanwai coincide with the political characteristics of this time.The government will never allow the emergence of forces that can challenge the government, as long as they appear, they will definitely be removed.Mo Yuanwai's obedience to the officials was in line with the temperament of the officials at this time.

Strictly speaking, Wang Xiaolie's military occupation of various places is accompanied by a whole set of bureaucratic institutions.Unlike other occupiers, Wang Xiaolie does not rely on local forces everywhere.The bureaucrats were dispatched from the rear, their backing was the army, and the occupation of places was earth-shattering in nature.

If it was in the past, Mo Yuanwai was not as brave and ruthless as others, and it was difficult to rise up.It's just that under the new situation, he is most in tune with the official.When other forces are attacked by the government, it will be revealed that he has come.

After bidding farewell to Chen Xiaohui and Lu Zongyuan, Mo Yuanwai returned to the mansion.Called Wen Po and asked, "When will Han Chunchun give birth?"

Wen Po said: "It's been two days since I returned to the staff. I have already told his maid, Xiaomei, if there is anything, please come to me quickly."

Mo Yuanwai looked at Mrs. Wen, thought for a while, and said, "Find me two nannies. If you want enough milk, it's best to give birth recently."

The steady woman said yes carefully.

Mo Yuanwai said: "Look for it in private, don't let Han Chunchun know.——Go."

Wen Po faintly felt that something was wrong, and saw Yuanwai Mo's expression was not good, so she took her leave carefully and left.

Member Mo walked out of the room, looked at the sky, and walked out the door.When I arrived at the Bazhen Square under the Xuanfu Division on the street, I bought a box of Bazhen peach cakes and a box of sweet-scented osmanthus cakes, and brought them to Tongfu Inn.

When we arrived at the Tongfu Inn, the servant rushed to meet him.

Mo Yuanwai said: "I heard that there is a wind-collecting official from Luoyang. I don't know where he lives?"

The boy said: "Good luck for Yuanwai, I arranged for this official. Come with me, Yuanwai, this official lives in the backyard."

Mo Yuanwai waved his hand: "No hurry. I have two boxes of pastries here, and I'll put them here with you first. After I've gone to see Han Chunchun, I'll pay homage to this official."

After finishing speaking, he handed the pastry to the boy and went to the backyard by himself.After looking around, there was no one around, so he walked into Han Chunchun's courtyard.

Han Chunchun had a conflict with Zhang Di, and when he found out that he was an official, he was angry and afraid.He was angry because he didn't take advantage of it, and he was afraid that he was an official and might make trouble for him in the future.More importantly, his benefactor Mo Yuanwai is most afraid of officials, he is afraid that he will be angry with him.

Han Chunchun, who was sulking in the yard, saw Yuanwai Mo coming, and hurriedly stood up to greet him.Holding Mo Yuanwai's hand, tears flowed down her face involuntarily.

Mo Yuanwai said: "I heard that you had a conflict with an official today? It's all right, I'll talk it over myself."

Hearing Mo Yuanwai's words, Han Chunchun's heart sank.With peace of mind, I felt that I had been greatly wronged.With tears in his eyes, he said: "Where do the members know how hard it is for me to live alone as a woman! That official, after living in, looked at my beauty and spoke rudely! How can I bear him? In addition, I feel the fetus moving these days, and I am very irritable. When I have a conflict with him, he will humiliate me in every possible way!"

Mo Yuanwai patted Han Chunchun's back lightly and said: "Don't be angry, don't arouse the fetal gas. I will go to the official in a while and make an apology for you. We can't afford to provoke the official, and we won't. You should rest at home and don't get angry with him."

Han Chunchun was crying, just talking about Zhang Di's viciousness, making himself angry in every possible way.Didn't notice, Yuanwai Mo was getting impatient.

After coaxing for a long time, Han Chunchun gradually calmed down.Mo Yuanwai helped her to rest in the house, turned around and left the courtyard.

Seeing that the door of Zhang Di's room was still closed, Yuan Mo went to the front, took the pastry from the servant, and went back to the backyard.With the servant, he went forward and knocked on Zhang Di's door.After a long time, the door creaked open.

Zhang Di stood in front of the door and looked Mo Yuanwai up and down.Said: "I don't know Gao's name? Why are you here?"

Mo Yuanwai said with a smile on his face: "In Xia Moqiong, there is a Yichunyuan restaurant in the county. I have an outer room named Han Chunchun, and I live next door, and I just live next door to the officials. I heard that you are a little unhappy today, and I am here to accompany you."

Zhang Di looked at Mo Yuanwai, then at Han Chunchun's yard, and said coldly, "No need. Since it's your outer room, you should take good care of her. I just did this on the first day I came here, will I pay it back?"

Seeing Zhang Di's indifferent attitude, Mo Yuanwai felt bad, and hurriedly apologized.

Zhang Di said: "Although my official position is not high, I will always be an official. If that woman continues to make trouble for no reason like this, be careful to let the official deal with her!"

After speaking, he looked Mo Yuanwai up and down again.Said: "I'm new here, there is no tea at home, please go back, both of you!"
