I was vying for favor with four big daddy

Chapter 526

The Su family has two accountants in each state capital, who are served by the Su family's confidantes.

They are usually responsible for checking the accounts of all the shops of the Su family, and preventing the shopkeeper from tampering with the accounts. Of course, they also know more about other shops.

Before Tangtang left Beijing, Su Qingyun gave orders in advance to all the account-checking gentlemen in the various state capitals along the way, and whenever the little Patriarch had orders, he would obey them all.

After finishing the arrangements, Tangtang signaled Tang Bi to continue.

"Su Chenxing is knowledgeable, but not enough to be a Juren. All the way, he relied on the fame that Su's father donated to him, about 2 taels. After three years, he will be able to enter Beijing Chunwei."

"His family bribed the governor and the magistrate not too much, and not too little. Xunfu and the magistrate valued him very much, so they let him call the wind and rain in the Confucian scholar's hall."

The Confucian Scholars Hall was originally established for Confucian scholars to discuss knowledge and help each other, but in recent years it has become a place for Confucian scholars to form cliques.

Last year and this year, many children from poor families came to the Confucianism Hall in Chuanzhou.

The poor ones who couldn't pay for their filial piety were squeezed out by the dandies headed by Su Chenxing, and those who remained were from relatively wealthy families.

But those who give less, the treatment is still very poor.

I lived in a cold and damp room on the north side of the guild hall. I had nothing to eat and wear from time to time, and I had to buy my own pen and ink.

As for the money allocated by the yamen to the guild hall, all the Confucian scholars headed by Su Chenxing were ignorant of it, and then gave it to the magistrate and governor as a filial piety.

In winter, a Confucian scholar from a poor family rushed over and refused to give them money or leave, so he was beaten to death by Su Chenxing and his gang and buried in the outskirts of the city.

Yan Gui found the Confucian Scholar Guild Hall after accepting the Confucian scholar's consciousness, and then lobbied the Confucian scholar and the guild leader.

Tangtang asked Yan Gui again: "Brother, you really didn't see the face of that leader."

Yan Gui shook his head: "He should be a warlock, the mask on his face is a cloud of gossip."

"It's no wonder. Not only did the poor students convince him, but even Su Chenxing and his group obeyed him."

Since the leader of the meeting came, he has helped many students from poor families and comforted Confucian scholars from aristocratic families. The aristocratic families and poor families have temporarily calmed down.

And the prestige of this leader is getting higher and higher, as if he has the momentum of the leader of Confucian scholars in the world.

Su Chenxing and the others have restrained a lot because of this, but the governor and prefect have given them new orders, which is to slander the imperial examination and the new policy.

In addition to letting the Confucian scholars in the guild hall know, it is also necessary to let the newcomers join in publicizing how bad the New Deal and the imperial examinations participated by the empress dowager are.

The governor and the magistrate also told them that the crown prince is the foundation of a country and cannot be shaken, and they can do whatever else they want, so there are various rumors about Chuanzhou Prefecture.

Especially after the leader left and before Tangtang arrived, the rumors got out of hand.

Combining the news from various sources, it is not difficult to see that Feng Mingxiu took the exam and Confucian scholars resisted the cause and effect of the whole incident.

In addition to Yan Gui and Qiang Jun's people who contributed to the flames, the governor and prefect of Chuanzhou Prefecture joined forces with some officials in the court to plan together.

If it was discovered after the fact, Feng Mingxiu was pushed to the front, the crown prince and the empress dowager were slapped in the face in public, and the imperial examination and the new policy would have died as soon as they were implemented.

Fortunately, it is not too late to remedy it now.

Tang Bi spread out these brochures on the table: "There are 21 people in total."

Tangtang looked at it: "Wait for the news from Mr. Account Checker, once the account of Su Chenxing's family is withheld, the second step of the plan will be carried out."

"Yes."

After drinking tea and listening to the play, Tangtang went to the guild hall again according to the greeting card given by Su Chenxing yesterday.

Today's atmosphere is obviously more depressed than yesterday's, it seems that every Confucian scholar has endless anger.

This time, Su Chenxing saw that Tangtang could not walk anymore, but he still stuttered a bit when he spoke:

"Here comes a troupe that sings praises to the Empress Dowager. It's so noisy. It seems that the Empress Dowager is playing tricks. Children are children, childish."

"Brother Susu, don't misunderstand, there are usually none. If you intend to stay in Chuanzhou Mansion, I will guide you to choose a room, and you can live here tomorrow to discuss knowledge with your classmates."

Tangtang looked around and chose a spacious, bright and clean room: "Let's go with this one."

Su Chenxing said with a smile: "Brother Susu really has a good eye, this is the best room in the entire Confucian house, it's just this month's money..."

"Huh?" Tangtang pretended to be stupid, "Isn't the Confucian Scholar's Guild Hall provided to Confucian Scholar for free, and money is required?"

Su Chenxing shook his head: "Of course you don't need to live in a Confucian house, but Brother Susu, think about it, the servants buy vegetables, cook, clean up the house yard, and guard the safety are not all expenses?"

"Not to mention the books and pens in the guild hall, and asking a doctor when you are sick."

Tangtang nodded: "Brother Chen Xing is right, how much money do you need every month?"

"Not much, 100 taels. If Brother Susu can give it for a year, then he will give 1000 taels directly, and I will pay for the remaining 200 taels for you."

Tangtang nodded with a smile, and took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket, and Su Chenxing's eyes were straightened as he counted them.

"Then let's get 2000 taels first!"

When Su Chenxing took the money, his face almost turned into a flower with a smile:
"Brother Susu, you really have extraordinary bearing and generous spending. My brother will definitely recommend you to the magistrate."

Tangtang's eyes lit up: "You can still meet the magistrate, Brother Chen Xing, you are really amazing."

Su Chenxing was full of complacency, so he tactfully established a relationship with the prefect, the governor, and the precautions in Chuanzhou Prefecture, and finally sent them away with a smile on his face.

After Tangtang's carriage left, Su Chenxing's smile cooled down, and he beckoned for a confidant:
"Follow them and find out who this Susu is from. There is such a wealthy family in Changnian County?"

The carriage rolled forward, Qian Shuang gently lowered the curtain: "Your Highness, someone is following."

"It's not normal if no one follows you." Tangtang held his chin and blinked his eyes. "It's 2000 taels. Who can be as inhuman as Tangtang?"

Qian Shuang: "..."

You are right about everything.

The carriage turned a corner at the intersection and stopped in front of an inn. There were signs of the Su family on the door of the inn and the account room.

Tangtang went straight up to the second floor because she had said hello beforehand. She glanced at her tail and was still looking around foolishly downstairs.

She smirked a bit, then walked up.

Seeing that the tail followed in, no one expected to meet Su Qingyun on the second floor.

Young Master Yun hugged a large group, waving his fan and walking triumphantly, seeing Tangtang's eyes widened: "Oh, Tang..."

Tangtang: "..."

It's over, it's been discovered, why didn't anyone stop Rich Daddy?

Hurry up and save Tangtang personally.

That tail has already started going up the stairs.
