Compete for the Song Dynasty

Xiaotianshui Lane is close to Yujie Street, and all the big families in the capital live on this street. -"

Officials in the capital all have official residences, and their residences are basically settled by the imperial court. The so-called big households are considered wealthy people. There are so many houses in the house, and the inside is not just pavilions, pavilions, carved beams and painted buildings.Now that money is tight in the imperial court, the emperor should be frugal, just like this time when Zhao Xu went south, officials were not allowed to receive him.

Ordinary officials tried their best to keep a low profile under the eyes of the emperor. Unexpectedly, a eunuch actually built such a house in the capital.Just having such a house is not a big deal, but there is a large group of charming wives and beautiful concubines hidden in the golden house.

Shi Qian pointed to a house not far in front of him and said, "My lord, I guess it is there. You see there are several sedan chairs parked there, and there are people watching the horses outside the house. Look at the excitement. This mansion must be working on something."

Wang Bang stopped in his tracks: "Okay, I got it. I'll go to do some other things first, you go over and step on the spot, be smart. Look who are the people who come and go in and out of the mansion." [

Shi Qian agreed, and walked in the direction of Yang Jian's mansion in a carefree manner.

Wang Pang turned around and walked across the streets and alleys towards his Meyer Mansion. After crossing two streets, he just got on the Yunqi Bridge and suddenly saw two figures standing on the bridge, a man and a woman seemed to be tugging.

When I got closer, I heard the woman say: "My lord, don't pester me anymore, I have to go back."

The man stopped in front of the woman: "Girl, if you don't promise me, I won't let you go!"

"Get out of the way!" It seemed that the girl was a little anxious, and wanted to move away from the man in front of her, but was stopped by him abruptly.

The black light is blind, is this man going to steal sex?Wang Pang quickly stepped forward and patted the man on the shoulder: "Hey, brother, what are you doing?"

The man turned around to see what Wang was doing, and the woman slipped around him and trotted down the bridge.

"Oh, oh, you ruined my big business!" The man wanted to chase after Wang Pang, how could Wang Pang let him go after him, he grabbed the man's wrist: "I'm here to spoil your business, you Stopping a girl in the middle of the night, if someone from the government sees it, they won't arrest you to see the government!"

"Why are you so unreasonable? Who are you? Can you handle it?!" The man was a little anxious, so he simply grabbed Wang Pang's collar, stared at Wang Pang for a closer look, and suddenly let go A: "You are, are you?"

"What am I?! It's okay, let's go, don't do such a thing next time, go to Qingfeng Building if you have money, the girl has a good environment, safety and environmental protection. Okay, let's go!" Wang Pang didn't have time to chat with him, and let go of his wrist,

The man trotted two steps and stopped Wang Pang: "Don't go, don't go..."

"Hehe, what's the matter, are you a man and woman??" Wang looked at the other party's intentions, as if he didn't want to let himself go now.

The small bridge with a width of two or three people was blocked by the other side so much, no wonder the girl couldn't get across it just now.Wang Pang rolled up his sleeves, and if he stopped him again, he would be thrown into the river.

"My lord, are you my lord?" The other party asked eagerly just as he was about to make a move.

"Who are you?!" There are many people who know me.

"I, I, my surname is Zhou... Take a closer look!"

Under the bright moonlight, Wang Pang took a closer look. This person was about 26 or [-] years old, and his facial features were considered normal and upright, but he didn't know him, and he couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time.

"Oh, I really don't know you. For the sake of you knowing me, I won't care about you if you get out of here today."

Who knew that the other party grabbed Wang's side: "My lord, I'm Zhou, Zhou!"

He hesitated for a long time without knowing what he was thinking, and for a long time he didn't report his name, Wang Pang was very angry and funny.With a flick of his arm, he almost threw the man into the river, and Wang Pang walked away.The person behind finally said: "Sister"

This man is so nympho that he can't tell the difference between male and female.

"I'm Zhou Meimei!"

Wang Pang immediately stopped and turned around to look at that person, they were somewhat similar!

That little servant Zhou Meimei back then?He was only twelve or thirteen years old at that time, unlike Tong Guan, who was almost an adult, whose outline was so clear after more than ten years. For a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, the changes will be great after more than ten years.

"Are you Zhou Meimei?"

"Oh, my lord, I'm Zhou Meimei! Just now I thought, this name has not been used for many years, and I can't say it myself all at once."

Wang Pang smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "It was you, did you just throw you? I didn't expect to meet you like this. How did you become a rascal?"

Zhou Meimei's face was blank. He looked back at the direction the girl was walking and suddenly realized: "My lord, you have misunderstood. That girl is from the residence of Cai Luanzi, the prefect of Suzhou. Today she was ordered by the prefect to ask me to get some things. I know His sister, Yue Chuyun, wanted to ask her to give his sister a message, but she refused. Didn't this just happen to be met by you, my lord?!"

"Look at you mess!"

"My lord, let's not stand here and talk, please hurry up." Zhou Meimei said, pulling Wang Pang off the bridge, and walked two steps to the front of a mansion.

Zhou Meimei stepped forward and knocked on the door, and a servant opened the door: "Boss Zhou, you are back!"

"My lord, please!"

They were all at the door, and Wang Pang stepped into the courtyard.Zhou Meimei turned her head and said to the servant: "Go and invite General Tong, just say that the prince is old."

"Child General? Is this the mansion of the Astor?"

"Isn't it! He just happened to be at the house today, I guess he would never have imagined that I could drag you away!"

Wang Pang knew that Tong Guan also had a mansion in the capital, but he still had the chance to meet him. Today, in terms of location and the size of the mansion, it is far worse than the mansion of Yang Jian just now.

Under the leadership of Zhou Meimei, the two of them entered the hall, and Zhou Meimei was busy serving tea and water: "My lord, I heard that you are back, but I have no time to see you."

Wang Pang smiled: "It's fine if you have the heart, and now you are also the manager of the Daofu's house, so you have survived."

"This is Mr. Tong taking care of me. He is seldom here. There are only one or two servants in the house who are in charge of taking care of me. There is nothing to manage."

While talking, Tong Guan walked in with sleepy eyes: "Father, what's wrong with you?!"

Zhou Meimei blushed a little when he asked this question, and then said: "I just went out, and happened to meet the prince passing by, so I dragged him in."

Wang Pang shook his head and smiled.

Tong Guan said: "Since it's done, don't leave tonight. Tell them to get some more wine and vegetables later, and we will continue to drink."

Wang Pang thought to himself, how can I do anything else in one day.He waved his hand and said, "It's fine to drink. If you have good tea, you can have a pot. I was going out to do some errands, and I thought I would pass by here, so I think you should too."

"Look at what you said, how can I look after my son!"

What Tong Guan said was not good at all, Wang Pang was quite happy in his heart, the eldest son was older than himself.

"By the way, I just passed Xiaotianshui Lane and saw a family taking concubines today. It's quite lively."

"Father, are you talking about Eunuch Yang?"

"Oh? You know what?"

"Hey, there's nothing I don't know!"

"Then how do you go?"

Tong Guan curled his lips: "He always takes a concubine, once he takes a concubine, he goes there once, then don't do anything else, it doesn't matter if he doesn't go!"

"No, Dad has something for you to do!" Wang Bang paused after speaking.

Tong Guan turned to Zhou Meimei and said, "Meicheng, don't you still want to write something for Prefect Cai?"

Zhou Meimei was looking at Wang Wang happily, thinking how could this person live younger and younger?He also remembered that Wang Pang was kind to him at that time, and he was happy to follow the prince every day, and he was much happier than being in the Salesian Bureau.He fully noticed that Wang Pang and his son were talking, and when Tong Guan called him, he recalled: "Oh! That's right! I'll excuse you first!" After speaking, he turned and left the room.

"Father, tell me, what's the matter?"

"I want to find out what happened when Zheng Xia presented the "Refugees Picture" to the emperor. Did you do it?"

"How to check?"

"I suspect that someone in the palace brought him in at that time, and this person should be able to speak in front of the emperor. I analyzed several possibilities: the first is the censor, but the censor is in charge of impeaching people. The picture is enough. The second one is the people around the emperor. There are many people around here. It may be the harem, the emperor's relatives, or the courtiers. But no matter who it is, the Ministry of Internal Affairs should have records at that time. "

"Records, there should be, but I can check the authority of the records of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Unless there are assassins in the palace or things are lost, I can make use of it, but that was all years ago. I'm afraid I don't know the files Can't find it."

Seeing that Wang Pang frowned, Tong Guan hurriedly said: "Father, don't worry, let me think of a way." His eyes rolled: "Although I can't check, there must be someone who knows what happened at that time. It's just that ..."

"Who?"

"Yang Jian! But I rarely interact with him!"

"Then how do you usually get along?"

"It's not too bad. In the early years, the eunuchs had a slight disagreement, but in the past few years, everyone seems to understand that the position of the eunuch is three levels lower than the normal official position. If everyone is not in the same heart, they will have more status in front of the emperor. How about People support each other, and everyone lifts each other up to have a chance."

"Huo, the eunuch also has an alliance? Then why don't you go if he takes a concubine?"

"I've been there before, this time I just went south with the emperor, and I'm also preparing some gifts..." Tong Guan said with a forced smile.

"You ask Zhou Meimei to come to my house and ask Mr. Jiao to get 500 taels of silver. Now that you are an official, you will inevitably have to socialize in the future."

"This, no need!"

"Go, why are you being polite with your father!" Wang Bang felt that his waist was very straight when he said this.

"Man! Go and call Manager Zhou!" Tong Guan and Wang Pang also had to be polite, because they thought Wang Pang's money was easy, and it always cost money.

Zhou Meimei was fine. When she heard that she was going to the Wang's mansion, she shook her head: "My lord, how dangerous it is to take so much money in the middle of the night!?"

"You also know the danger? You did something dangerous just now!" Wang said incredulously.

"Huh?" Tong Guan suddenly seemed to think of something: "I said Meicheng? Didn't the people from the Cai Taishou's mansion give you a seedling just now? Can you give it to me?!"

"See what you said, why not? I'll get it for you!"

When Steward Zhou went out to get the kung fu, Tong Guan said with a smile: "Father, I have a gift for him, it must be his favorite!"

After a while, Zhou Meimei hugged a flower pot with a plant in it. Wang Pang was curious, could this be some kind of exotic flower and herb that would be Yang Jian's favorite?
