high official

Chapter 688

After Wang Ning finished speaking, he stared at Wang Xian closely. If Dao Yan really sent him, this kid would agree without hesitation, at least help him to ask for instructions.

If Wang Xian hesitated a little, it meant that he was cheating himself under the guise of Dao Yan by selling dog meat.

Wang Xian nodded without hesitation, handed the pen to Wang Ning, and signaled him to write a draft according to his heart.Wang Ning felt relieved now, picked up a pen, and wrote a confession, explaining his request to Dao Yan.After finishing writing, when I handed it to Wang Xian for a review, it made his old face feel hot, and he felt that his tone was too humble.

Wang Xian didn't even look at it, and handed it directly to Yexian, motioning him to give it to the abbot.Then he poured water for Wang Ning himself, which meant to ask him to wait.

Wang Ning hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can wait."

Wang Xian nodded, and then sat and waited opposite him, the two of them didn't speak, just staring at each other, it was really embarrassing.Wang Ning closed his eyes and rested his mind, and stopped staring at him awkwardly.Wang Xian also lowered his eyelids, stroking the rosary with his fingers, pretending to be reciting the Heart Sutra silently.

How could Wang Xian recite the Heart Sutra, he was actually making plans in his heart... Wang Ning's reaction today was basically not what he expected.It's nothing to make a fuss about, as long as Wang Ning sees his outfit and thinks that Dao Yan sent him to see him, the balance in his heart will definitely tilt completely.

Thinking of this, Wang Xian couldn't help but cast a glance at Wang Ning, thinking that this fellow was so cautious that what he said was unsubstantiated, and he had to prove it with words.But this is also normal, after all, people are always worried if they don't see the rightful owner, and when the time comes, it will be many times more reliable to use the written black and white letters to wash away the relationship in front of the emperor than to rely on the old monk to intercede.

After pondering for a while, he suddenly understood Wang Ning's subtle state of mind - it turned out that this guy still wanted to step on two boats!With Daoyan's letter of guarantee, he can continue to hang out with the king of Han. If the king of Han succeeds at that time, he will burn the letter of guarantee and take refuge in him completely.If the king of Han is not successful, he will stab him in the back and repeat the scene of the Jingnan battle to see if he can become a duke for himself!

'This old fox! 'Wang Xian couldn't help cursing inwardly, but clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves, he couldn't believe that he could escape from his palm!

.

Not to mention the two people in the meditation room who had their own ghosts, but they also left with Wang Ning's note in their hands.As soon as he went out, his face was full of anxiety, thinking that the master's tricks could not be performed anymore, what should I do now?

Of course Wang Xian was not sent by the old monk to see Wang Ning, he asked Wang Ning to go there first, it was purely a false "imperial decree" and deceived Wang Ning who was kept in the dark!

Before that, I also admired Wang Xian's five bodies, admired him for predicting things like a god, and unexpectedly expected that Wang Ning would come today; I also admired his ability to fool people, playing the shrewd Hou Ye into a monkey .But after all, Lord Hou is smarter than a monkey, and he actually asked the old monk to write him a letter of guarantee. Where can I get him?

This is what Wang Xian did not order yesterday.

Write a fake?Just my own handwriting?What's more, the other party must have seen the old monk's handwriting, no matter how good his writing is, he can't pretend to be it.Then really go to the old monk?Wouldn't the master's trick be exposed?I also thought about it first, and suddenly remembered that the master said last night that if you encounter a situation, go to the southwest corner of the temple, kowtow to a dog hole there, and tell your troubles to solve it.

I didn't pay attention to it before, thinking that the master was teasing me.But there was no way out, so he had to use the dead horse as a live horse doctor, and ran to the southwest corner of the temple in one breath, and found a dog hole in the grass.

"Master is really amazing!" Ye Xian couldn't help being ecstatic, the image of Wang Xian in his heart was raised again, he was like a living god.He hurriedly plopped down on his knees, knocked his head towards the dog hole three times, and then whispered: "Grandpa Immortal, my master is in trouble, please help me quickly." After speaking, he closed his ears and hugged With a faint hope to hear if there is any movement.

Really amazing!After a while, I heard a muffled voice coming from the dog hole: "What's the trouble with your master?"

"My master..." Ye Xian was overjoyed, and hurriedly explained the matter briefly, and the voice instructed: "There is a box in the grass, you put the note in it, then put the box into the dog hole and leave. After a quarter of an hour Come back."

"Yeah." Yexian replied naively, groped in the grass beside him, and found a box that was not black, not iron or wood, put the note in it, and sent it to the dog hole.After three more kowtows, he patted the dirt on his body and left quickly.

After he walked away, a hand stretched out from the dog hole, and took out the box...

.

Outside the wall of Qingshou Temple, a hand took out the box, and the owner of the hand was Shi Wan, the former master of the Thief...

Wang Xian became a monk in Qingshou Temple, but his subordinates suffered a lot. On the one hand, they had to provide all-round protection and help for the adults, and on the other hand, they had to be careful not to leak the news.For this reason, Wu Wei mobilized elite forces and divided them into three shifts to wait around the Qingshou Temple day and night, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

As a master of flying over eaves and walls and slipping through doors and windows, the former thief Shi Wan is naturally the main force among the main force. He just replaced Deng Xiaoxian's class today, squatting outside the dog hole waiting for news, when he heard a fool kowtow inside God, he was so playful for a while, so he played tricks and played tricks on that kid.But when he took out the box, the playful expression on his face with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks disappeared without a trace, and when he put the note in his arms, it disappeared in a flash.

In a blink of an eye, Shi Wan appeared in a small courtyard near Qingshou Temple, where the able men and strangers from Fusi of Beizhen gathered... Shi Wan is such a gangster, some are good at changing appearances, some are good at making Those who are addicted to drugs, and those who are good at forging calligraphy and paintings... These crooked people in the eyes of others are the treasures in Wang Xian's eyes. They got them to be fed with good food and drink in the capital, and even made them into officials, which made these thick-skinned guys feel embarrassed, and always wanted to have a chance to show themselves in order to repay the adults for their kindness.

This time, Wu Wei gathered all these guys near the Qingshou Temple, and the preparation was that no matter what situation they encountered, there would always be someone here who could solve it.

Once Shi Wan entered the courtyard, everyone's eyes were fixed on him, watching Shi Wan hand the note to Wu Wei, and whispered a few words in his ear.Wu Wei nodded, and glanced at everyone, everyone looked back with that kind of hungry eyes, really hoped that he would be the one who got the chance to show his face this time...

"Mr. Zhang." Wu Wei called by name.

A middle-aged literati with a clear face and a chic demeanor stepped out slowly.

"Why is it him again..." Everyone said in dismay, "Your Excellency always uses acquaintances and doesn't give newcomers a chance..." "That's right, why do you always use ghost hands?"

Zhang Gui is the famous Guishou Zhang. His calligraphy, ink and painting skills have reached the pinnacle. When he was young, he was a famous painter in Hangzhou.Originally, according to the normal track, he should continue to dance and write, and become a famous painter in the whole province and even the whole country, and even a famous one in history.But 11 years ago, he was also involved in a plagiarism against Jianwen's old party.

Originally, Zhang Gui was a calligraphy and painting seller, and had nothing to do with the old Jianwen party, but Jin Yiwei found his calligraphy and paintings from the homes of several ministers whose homes had been ransacked. He was sentenced to exile in Yunnan and Guizhou... In the eyes of Chinese people at that time, exile in Yunnan and Guizhou was tantamount to a death sentence. For many years, it was not heard that anyone came back alive.

The prisoners who were exiled together were ashamed and resigned to their fate.But under Zhang Gui's elegant appearance, there was actually a heart of a desperado hidden. When he was escorted to Guangxi, he took advantage of the lax guards and the strong wind and rain, and escaped with several prisoners.Later, the rest of the prisoners were either arrested or killed, and he was the only one who fled back to Hangzhou incognito...

After returning to Hangzhou, Zhang Gui discovered that the successful jailbreak was only the first step, and he had to find ways to solve his own identity and livelihood issues.The Ming Dynasty implemented the Baojia system, neighborhood surveillance, and Baojia continuous sitting. A fugitive like him would be reported and arrested in minutes if no one protected him.

With no choice, Zhang Gui had no choice but to join the Salt Gang. This kind of gang organization that is officially engaged in the government-run salt business and privately smuggled official salt has taken in many fugitives from all corners of the country. Naturally, it can provide him with asylum. Let people think he is useful... Zhang Gui's stepping stone is a salt quotation. The other party looks at it and doesn't know what he means.Although Yanyin is valuable, it is wishful thinking to let the Yanbang protect him for the rest of his life just by relying on such a piece of paper.

At the moment when the leader of the Salt Gang kicked him out, Zhang Gui said something amazing, telling the other party that he had forged this salt quotation, which shocked the leader of the gang at that time.You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, when the salt was officially run, all salt sales were based on salt imports, and the amount of salt imports issued each year was fixed, which caused the extreme scarcity of salt imports.some merchants who mastered salt
, You don't need to sell salt yourself, you can become a wealthy businessman just by selling salt.And those merchants who worked hard to sell salt had much smaller profits...

The Salt Gang knows how important Yanyin is. If there are enough Yanyin, why would they bother to make a living by colluding with outsiders, risking smuggling, and losing their heads at any time?It's not that the Salt Gang has never thought of counterfeiting Yanyin, but this kind of thing is much more difficult to forge than treasure notes, and it has never been successful.Now seeing Zhang Gui's forged Yan Yin, he could even fool himself. The leader of the Yan Gang immediately asked him to make another one on the spot as if he had found a treasure.After witnessing Zhang Gui's miraculous skills with his own eyes, the leader of the gang immediately entrusted him with a heavy responsibility and treated him as a superior guest!

Ever since Zhang Gui forged salt quotations, the business of the Salt Gang has been booming, earning a lot of money, and Zhang Gui's reputation has become more and more famous among his colleagues, and he finally got the nickname of "Ghost Hand Zhang"!

It's just that flowers don't have a hundred days of success, and people don't have a thousand days of happiness.The Salt Gang is extremely happy and will be sad... because Zhejiang has newly appointed a procurator named Zhou Xin.
