Tan Zong asked so suddenly that Jiang Wu had already calculated that Tan Zong knew his identity, but he didn't expect Tan Zong would come out straight to the point.

According to the result of Jiang Wu and Cao Qiaomu, I am afraid that Tan Zong will not only not expose the identity of "Jiang Wu", but will also take the opportunity to get closer to him and seek some convenience. If he is more despicable, he may also take advantage of Jiang Wu's love for Su Jin and create more conveniences, sacrificing Su Jin to make his own disciples.

However, since Tan Zong appeared, he not only did not comment on Su Jin and Jiang Wu's slightest evaluation of Yin, but also did not even cover up at all, so he directly picked out his identity as Jiang. How could this make Jiang Wu unsurprising and how could he not be surprised?

If he went out to wash up so naturally before, he ignored Jiang Wu and instead went to tease the situation of the Chow Chow, even if Jiang Wu couldn't figure out Tan Zong's way out for a while. For a moment, Jiang Wu could only secretly regret that he was talking too much before going out, so he didn't even bring Cao Qiaomu out.

Cao Qiaomu vaguely saw that the young master seemed to have no grudges in his heart, but in fact he was quite contemptuous of Tan Zong. It was nothing more than the inner demons that were caused by the evil spirits - beautiful women are indeed all disasters!

"If Qiao Mu was there, how could he suffer such a loss!" Jiang Wu's teeth were so eager to bite them. At this moment, he was really full of temper, but he was unable to do so, and he felt very uncomfortable.

To put it bluntly, the self-confidence that was proud was trampled on without hesitation.

But he didn't know that his condition was exactly what Tan Zong expected.

Like these princes, from ancient times to the present, who have been so arrogant, and how many of them are not a sensation? The so-called high-minded people are mostly for them to use! And these princes are the most unavoidable, and even more so, they cannot stand the slap of others. As long as you suffer a little loss, you will try every means to find a way to get the place back. However, these princes are the easiest to coax, and coax these people is like coaxing a donkey. As long as you touch the hair, you will naturally be able to smooth out your temper.

Therefore, since seeing Jiang Wu, Tan Zong first hit two sticks and deliberately shocked the person with words, so that he would not get angry for a while. The next thing to do is to see how the person is cultivated: if he is a good temper, he might have to spend some more time to find out the bottom line of the person; if he is a bad temper, he would have to beat the side drum a few times to stabilize the scene so as not to part with the trouble and let the other party leave directly, which would be unbeautiful.

There are many twists and turns here. But Tan Zong dared to take it out when he was about Jiang Wu. If someone was so old and sophisticated, he could only hide his energy.

At this time, when Tan Zong saw Jiang Wu's condition, he knew that this man's temper was not bad, at least he could tolerate others, much better than the princes and men in later provinces. No wonder he was sent to do business by the officials. Therefore, Tan Zong was also calculating in his heart, so he put down the Chow Chow and sat on Su Jin's left hand.

But here, the thin waist prepared tea for Tan Zong early - the cold Baikai he liked, and he specially used a small porcelain pot to pack it, which seemed a bit out of place in this living room.

Tan Zong smiled at Su Jin who was looking for it, drove away his thin waist, and then asked again: "Why is King An coming this time? Is it to reminisce about the past with Jin'er, or to find me, Tan Menghua?"

Tan Zong's words were actually very rude. Even if there was someone else, he would directly scold Tan Zong for deceiving the king - isn't bullying the prince equivalent to deceiving the king? But now, let alone others in the living room, there are only Jiang Wu, even outsiders. This is why Tan Zong dared to speak in such a presumptuous tone.

He knew clearly that the princelings' face is not so easy to beat. They must have a good time and place. What's even more rare is that they are not allowed to be watched by others, otherwise they will be afraid that they will lose their heads. The so-called princelings value this face the most!

What money, what kind of bitch, what kind of house are all secondary, only this face is the most important thing!

Now that the time, place and people are in harmony, Tan Zong has taken all of it. He couldn't say that he had to make a small note to give the other party more impressions, so that he could show that Tan Zong was arrogant because of his talent.

Jiang Wu on the other side was asked by Tan Zong, and he really forgot about his previous unhappiness. He was just confused about whether he wanted to be arrogant and fool him today, or asked him directly what he knew. After all, Tan Zong dared to shout out the name of King An in person, and probably he was in stock.

For a moment, the living room became quiet, and only the slight sound of the blood-red ring circling gently on the fingers was left.

Half a cup of tea passed, even the tea in the cup was cold, but Jiang Wu didn't realize it. He just picked it up and took a sip, and then slowly said: "Jiang Wu came this time to reminisce with everyone in Su, and to see the style of Yayuan, Nanjing Prefecture this year. But he wanted to see how capable the young talent who could make Lord Cao praise him endlessly have."

"Oh?" Tan Zong smiled again in his heart, but he knew that at this moment, he was afraid that the first two were smoke bombs, and he was afraid that the third one was the focus of Jiang Wu's heart.

But he deliberately did not point it out, but just followed Jiang Wu's words: "Jin'er talked to me about Mr. Jiang last night, saying that the young master left a folding fan to help me, but I still had time to thank me. I was really ashamed and could not thank the young master again in the future. Fortunately, Mr. Tan was also in danger one night. I saw that the folding fan was too expensive and I was afraid that it would be stolen by the thief, so I asked the thin waist to return the folding fan, but I didn't know if the young master had received it?"

Tan Zong's pretending to be crazy and stupid did make Jiang Wu punch some fists, but he just couldn't touch the force. He was just so uncomfortable - he wanted to make it clear in his heart, but for some reason he held his breath and refused to speak in front of Su Jin.

Fortunately, Qinghe suddenly walked in from outside the courtyard gate with dewdrops one after another, and a young man tiptoed behind him, wearing only a single piece of sewn-up clothes. However, although the young man tiptoed and his clothes were worn, he looked quite upright and did not look like a traitor at all.

As soon as Qinghe entered the living room, she saw Jiang Wu sitting there - but she had never seen the true face of King An, so she didn't recognize him. Qinghe hesitated for a moment, and then Tan Zong couldn't help but shout in his heart that God would help me, so she threw Jiang Wu down and went straight to the young man.

I wondered who Jiang Wu was. Although he had a good temper, he couldn't stand Tan Zong's idleness again and again. He couldn't say anything, so he accused Su Jin of guilt. He didn't say a word with Tan Zong, and turned around and left like this.

Because he was angry with Tan Zong, he was too lazy to hold the Chow Chow who was holding the country, so he just let the beast run afterwards, regardless of the ground was filled with water left by the spring rain in the morning, making the best fur dirty.

In the small side hall of the Wang family in Nanjing Prefecture, the doors and windows were closed at this time, and the inside was full of people. In addition to the large tent Li Xilai was recuperating at home due to injury, the Wang family's confidants were all here. Even Wang Dong had his head down and could only be a role to listen. In addition to Wang Ren and Wang Dong, two masters of the Wang family, there were four people sitting inside, three of whom were dressed as Confucian scholars, while one of them had a high muscles, and even Chunchang was swollen. It was obvious that he was a warrior.

The three who dressed as Confucian scholars were Wang Ren’s three aides. They usually held the offerings of the Wang family, but they didn’t care about the affairs of the Nanjing Prefecture Office, and only gave Wang Ren’s advice or went to Beijing to walk around and contact the Wang family’s backer instead of Wang Ren.

Although the three of them are all staff members of the Wang family, their status is also high and low. The person with the highest status is not the oldest, but the middle-aged man sitting next to Wang Dong.

This middle-aged man called Zhan Muyun, with a mysterious origin and little talk on weekdays, but he was very trusted by Wang Ren, so he contacted Wang Ren specifically for news about the capital. This time, the official sent someone to check the account book of Nanjing Mansion. He got the news from a boss in the capital and rushed back for a few days.

You know, those officials who were ordered to leave the capital at this time may be two or three days away from Nanjing Prefecture.

Among the other two, the one who sits closest to Wang Ren is a famous person in Nanjing, named Han Yishen. He has extraordinary achievements in classics and is a Juren during the late emperor. He has a lot of family background and studies, so there must be a few scholars in each generation of the Han family. There are also Juren, but there are many people who can go to high school during the exam.

The other person sitting in the corner was dressed as a crazy person. At this moment, he was not tea or water, but a pot of wine. This person was a great talent invited by Wang Ren from Hunan. He didn't know what his real name was. Because he was drunk every few days, others called him Li Zuiren. But there were thousands of ravines in his stomach. Even though Han Yishen was extremely belittled by his drinking all day long, he had to admit that this person was quite talented when he came to make suggestions.

It was this person who easily learned from the news that Zhan Muyun collected in the capital that the government had to send two groups of people from light and dark, and the group of people in the secret must have been King An who had disappeared in the capital for several months.

Wang Ren was sitting on the Taishi chair, his eyes closed slightly, and a cup of tea on his left hand was placed on a high table. The lid of the cup was slightly lifted, and a few wisps of fragrance came out from it, surrounding the room with fragrance, which was the famous West Lake bird's tongue.

After a long time, Wang Ren finally spoke and said, "Where can the whereabouts of that King Cheng be found?"

Zhan Muyun has always been a little talkative, and Li Zuiren doesn't care about such trivial matters at all, so Han Yishen only took care of it. But this kind of job of finding people and things is not something he is an old juren who is capable of. He could not say that he turned his head and looked at Wang Fengxian on the other side.

Wang Fengxian was the son of the Wang family, and he was also Wang Ren's companion as a child. He has outstanding martial arts skills since childhood and has been terrifying. What he admires most in his life was the first god of war in the Three Kingdoms in the "Three Kingdoms" written by Long Junshi of the previous dynasty in his spare time. Therefore, he changed his name after he became sensible and called Wang Fengxian.

Although Wang Fengxian is a martial arts man and he usually acts as the martial arts coach of the Wang family, all the servants are under his control, including Chun Er, who specializes in collecting the green skins of Nanjing Prefecture, who is just a pawn under his command. The matter Wang Ren asked about was exactly what he gave to Chun Er to do, and there was news yesterday.

Seeing Wang Ren ask, Wang Fengxian stood up and said in a trembling voice: "Reply to the master, Chun Er sent a message yesterday, saying that someone had seen this person in Suzhou. But where this person is now, I'm afraid it will take some time to find out."

"It's okay, you know that you have appeared in Suzhou, but you don't rush to know the specific ones so clearly. But you should keep an eye on Chun Er, don't let this kid make trouble randomly and cause trouble for no reason." As he said that, Wang Ren glanced at Wang Dong intentionally or unintentionally, and the meaning of the knocking was very obvious.

Even though Wang Dong was dissatisfied with the fact that he was beaten by Wang Ren, he had to sit upright to show his intention to correct him.

Waving his hand, Wang Fengxian sat down, Wang Ren asked Han Yishen again, "Old man, this year is different from the past. The news in Beijing is clear. The government is afraid that the officials are determined to investigate. Although the spring flood has passed, the summer flood is not easy and cannot be ignored. Especially when there is a prince An peeking around, he is afraid that even if he is careless, he will be held in his hands. Therefore, during this period, he has to trouble the old man to take Fengxian to the Qinhuai River several times to shock the uneasy bunch of uneasy people, and to save people from cheating and delaying our major affairs."

Han Yishen saw Wang Ren first thought of himself. Although it was a thankless errand job, the matter itself was simple, so he responded happily.

Wang Ren turned to Zhan Muyun again and said, "As for Suzhou and Hangzhou, we have to trouble Mr. Zhan to go down and supervise it so that those individuals can wake up their spirits to repair the river embankment this year. Don't delay the business for such a little money. At that time, I'm afraid that if the money is gone, people will go in. That's stupid."

Zhan Muyun nodded and responded.

Seeing that Zhan Muyun responded, Wang Ren nodded, knowing that although he didn't talk much, he was the most worry-free when doing things. If he went to Suhang to take charge, there would definitely be no big mistakes.

He arranged some trivial matters, and at the end, Wang Ren finally ordered everyone to go back and do their own things as they were told, but kept Wang Dong down and asked him to ask: "You have been studying hard at home these few days, and you are not allowed to go out of the mansion, even in other courtyards. I have already told your mother that in a few months, when the rainy season is over, I will ask her to take you back to my family in Shandong to find a family that is of equal status..."

Seeing that his father gave a strict order, Wang Dong felt a little dissatisfied, but he could only nod and respond.

"Hmph, let you guys and women live for a few more days. When the old man is in a good mood, I will leave the house to look for you to be unlucky!" Thinking of Su Jin's pure and clean appearance, Wang Dong just wished that he could tear the adulterer and mistress now, otherwise he would not be able to vent his anger.

After having supper with Su Jin and others, Tan Zong pulled a few people to sit down in the courtyard.

After an afternoon, there was not much water on the ground, so people were allowed to move a stool and chat outside the house. Unfortunately, the temperature seemed a little wrong, but it seemed a little colder after the rain, which made several women unable to help but put on their clothes.

But Tan Zong had this intention, and Su Jin and the other two were not good at opposing it, so they could only give up their good flesh to accompany him. At this time, there were already frogs outside the house, and mosquitoes were just emerging, and there were a few maids wearing palm-leaf fans on the side, so they were not afraid.

Tan Zong was also rare to drink tea with Su Jin. When the first pot of tea went down, it was almost nine o'clock. Su Jin thought of Jiang Wu who was angry in the afternoon, and couldn't help but worry, "My husband, why are you so angry with King An today? When I saw that he was out, I was afraid that he would hide his hatred for you, but I was afraid that he would not come to the door again next time."

When Tan Zong heard Su Jin talk about this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "If this master had only one person, I'm afraid it would be as you said. Unfortunately, I knew that Lord Cao must be by our master at this moment. With him there, I'm afraid that this master's anger would be dispelled in a few words. Maybe he is urging him to come to me again tomorrow to find clues. However, my clues are not so easy to get, and it's not possible to have no sincerity.

It should be noted that Wang Ren has been famous in Nanjing Prefecture and Suzhou and Hangzhou in recent years. Even the promoter behind this case was approved by the government, and he only dared to investigate the case under the name of inquiring about the account book. Our Prince An could only come secretly, fearing that an improper method would arouse the anger of the local public. When the intrusion started, he was afraid that the government would not be able to protect him, so he could not say that he would follow the public opinion and he would be charged with it. In addition, the person behind the Wang family pushed the move, saying that the government would not be able to issue an order to calm the people's hearts. Therefore, he should be the one who is anxious at this moment, but I don't need to be anxious.

Besides, although there are some people around Prince An, there are many martial arts masters like Hu San. I am afraid there are not many people who can really share his worries. Otherwise, I would never have been to visit Suzhou and Hangzhou for a while but could not see any flaws. I could only guard this Nanjing Prefecture."

"Fuse?" Lian Xiang was confused over there. When she heard these two words, she immediately felt energetic: "Master, tell me, what is the flaw?"

Tan Zong ignored this little confusion, just picked up the teacup and drank the tea inside, then put the quilt on the coffee table, and then he spun and said, "This promotion depends on the brain, and corruption requires even more brains. Those who only stuff silver into their pockets are the stupidest person in the world. If Wang Ren only knew these methods, he would have been angry and resentful, so how could he gain such a huge reputation? It also made the capital afraid of being afraid to attack.

So, after all, this case is just to see if the people on Prince An are smart enough. As long as you can see the flaws, everything will naturally be solved. Otherwise, I am afraid that if I stayed in Nanjing for three or four years, I would not be able to catch Wang Ren's tail, and then it would be a futile thing, making him a laughing stock."

"Master, have you seen a flaw?" Lianxiang couldn't help asking again.

Qinghe saw her asking again, and quickly pulled her clothes and blamed her for talking too much. This kind of big deal between men is not something she can ask about, not to mention that the few people have not yet gone to the government to file a record, and even the title of the concubine has not been decided. She is really ungrateful.

Tan Zong saw Qinghe's small movements, but he didn't think Lianxiang was asking such a question. It had become a habit to discuss things with his women in the future. There were a few women in the high-ranking officials who were easy to fool. They might be smarter than those young leaders, but they just didn't show any signs of dew. Moreover, he also realized that in addition to Lianxiang being a little confused and confused, he was afraid that Su Jin and Qinghe were both strange women with ravines in their hearts, and they might be their help in the future.

But what I said about this place was that there were ears in the walls. I had already said a lot of things just now. Even if I missed a little bit, it didn't matter if I knew about that Jiang Wu. But I couldn't say it again about the secret matters related to my future. I couldn't say it again. I couldn't say it, so I beat several people, shook the fan and went straight back to Su Jin's room, regardless of Lianxiang's pouting.
