Chapter 1587 What else did you do
After Wei Guogong arrived, Marquis Linhuai ordered someone to serve a pot with a small charcoal stove under it, and then ordered some hot-boiled meat and vegetables to warm up a pot of Shaoxing daughter red, and the three of them sat around the pot.
"Nephew, I didn't expect you to have friendship with Eunuch Chen. Hehe, I really underestimated you. Not bad, not bad. Speaking of which, now I have an opportunity to take your relationship with Eunuch Chen to a higher level."
Wei Guogong picked up chopsticks to boil the mutton, and said to Zhu Pingan with a face revealing the inside story.
"I" Zhu Pingan was about to tell them the truth about his relationship with Chen Hong. What kind of friendship is it? Marquis Linhuai on the side couldn't wait to speak, interrupting Zhu Ping'an's words.
"Old Xu, do you know what's going on? Don't play tricks, tell us quickly." Marquis Linhuai urged impatiently, not giving Wei Guogong a chance to cheat.
"Hehe, it was also by chance. I accidentally overheard Eunuch Chen chatting with Eunuch Wang, and I got an insider tip. Eunuch Chen came to Jiangnan to buy pearls by order last month, and he was rewarded by His Majesty when he returned. But, Chen The father-in-law said that there is still a big gap in the pearls in the palace. He said that the treasures accumulated by the ancestors, including pearls, etc., were all spent by Emperor Hongzhi and Zhengde. It’s seven or eight. The courtiers in the court know to persuade the Holy Majesty not to care about precious jewels, do you want the Holy Majesty to abolish all expenses?! So, this time, Eunuch Chen wants to take some pearls back on the way and present them to the Holy Majesty.”
Under the urging of Linhuaihou, Wei Guogong spoke with a proud face and told the news he had heard.
"He wants to claim credit." Marquis Linhuai touched his chin.
"Right, so if we give Eunuch Chen some pearls at this time, it will be what he likes, and he will definitely be happy. When he returns to the capital, he will be able to say something nice for us, and we will have an extra door in the future."
Wei Guogong nodded vigorously, and expressed his plan with excitement.
Marquis Linhuai followed suit, agreeing with Wei Guogong's plan, "Well, Lao Xu, this is a good idea. If you give him gold and silver treasures to play with, he may not accept them, but if you give him pearls, he will definitely not refuse."
"Uncle, in my opinion, he's doing this in the name of making contributions to the sage and asking for merit, but he's actually doing things to make money." Zhu Pingan shrugged his shoulders and said sharply.
Anything that brings pearls along the way to dedicate to the Holy One is all a pretense. If he brings the pearls back, it will only fall into his own pocket, and he will definitely not dedicate it to the Holy Majesty.
"Nephew, this is a bit arbitrary." Wei Guogong said in a daze.
"It's not my arbitrariness, but the facts. Uncle, do you think, if Eunuch Chen collects a lot of pearls, what name will he dedicate to the Holy One?" Zhu Pingan shook his head slightly and asked the two.
"Is there still a need for a name to dedicate to the Holy One? This is his loyalty." Linhuaihou said puzzled.
"He is a **** in the middle palace, where did he get so much money to buy pearls?" Zhu Pingan slightly pulled the corners of his lips, "Did he **** it by chance? Or was it a gift from someone below? He couldn't have picked it up, right?"
"Uh, that's a problem." Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai pondered for a moment, then nodded involuntarily.
It’s definitely not okay to steal and plunder; it’s not okay to give gifts to the lower people; if it’s said that the lower people dedicated it to the Holy One, then there will be the same problem, where did the lower people get the money to buy so many pearls.
If you have a small amount of pearls, you can also say that you bought them with your salary, but do you have the nerve to dedicate a small amount of pearls to the Holy One? ! Even if you have the nerve to contribute to the Holy Majesty, the Holy Majesty will not notice it.
Therefore, even if Chen Hong took the pearls, it was not easy to present them to the Holy Majesty, and there was a high probability that they would be kept in his own pocket.
It seems that, as the nephew said, Chen Hong used the name of making offerings to the sages to ask for credit, but he was actually doing things to collect money.
However, it doesn’t matter, our purpose is to make friends with Chen Hong, as for whether he dedicates to the Holy Majesty, it has no effect on us.
"Nephew, it doesn't matter whether he dedicates to the Holy One or collects money, as long as he collects it is enough."
Wei Guogong said indifferently.
"Exactly, it would be better for him to make money. Knowing that he likes to make money, we'd better do what he likes."
Marquis Linhuai also had the same attitude.
"Nephew, you have friendship with Chen Hong, which is more convenient for us to do things. Tomorrow, Lao Li and I will pool a sum of money to buy some pearls. When the time comes, you can find a chance to give the pearls to Chen Hong in the name of the three of us. Hehe, Then your personal relationship with Chen Hong can't be improved, he will definitely give us some good words when he returns to Beijing."
Wei Guogong ate a large chopsticks to boil mutton, drank a glass of wine, and said to Zhu Pingan with a smile.
"This is good." Marquis Linhuai agreed.
"Ahem, Uncle" Zhu Pingan coughed, and looked at the two with a troubled expression, ready to tell the truth.
"Nephew, this is not the time to be noble." Wei Guogong thought that Zhu Ping'an's scholar was noble, why didn't he bend his waist for five buckets of rice, why An Neng could bend his eyebrows and bend his waist to serve the powerful, making me unhappy.
"That's right, nephew, you have to learn to be flexible. You should know that when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when people observe it, there will be no disciples."
Marquis Linhuai also persuaded him.
"Uncle, that's not the case." Zhu Pingan smiled wryly.
"Why is that?" Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai asked anxiously.
"Uncles, my relationship with Chen Hong is not what you think, nor what Chen Hong said."
Zhu Ping'an spread out his hands.
"Didn't you do him a big favor by catching a thief pretending to be his adopted son?!"
Duke Wei Guo and Marquis Linhuai looked at each other, with a sense of foreboding in their hearts, they looked at Zhu Pingan nervously and asked.
"Uncle, didn't I arrest the thief pretending to be his adopted son?" Zhu Pingan shook his head.
"Then who is pretending to be?" Wei Guogong and Linhuaihou asked hurriedly.
"It's not impersonation, I caught his adopted son." Zhu Pingan said to the two of them frankly.
"What? You caught his adopted son?" Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai couldn't help turning pale when they heard this, and the corners of their mouths twitched, "In other words, you beat his adopted son? !"
Zhu Ping'an nodded, and then added, "It's more than that."
"What else did you do?!" Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai couldn't sit still and asked tremblingly.
"I confiscated the nearly ten thousand taels of silver, antique calligraphy and paintings, etc. that his adopted son robbed and took bribes."
Zhu Pingan said slowly.
"Ah?!" Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai jumped up from their chairs when they heard the words.
It's like being struck by lightning.
"Uncle, don't worry, the pearls purchased by his adopted son and the official silver in Taicang, etc., will be handed over to Chen Hong when I send his adopted son under escort." Seeing how excited the two were, Zhu Pingan hurriedly reassured them.
"Nephew, you, you, what do you want us to say about you, his adopted son's money, isn't that his money."
"You confiscated 10,000 taels of silver from him. These unhealthy eunuchs have lost their lifelines and ambitions in that area. They all regard silver as their lifeline. You castrated him again. "
Duke Wei and Marquis Linhuai sighed again and again, walking around the house like ants on a hot pot.
