Through this Oiran incident, Fang Yingwu realized that the current hype for fame is too hot, and it is a bit too much, which will cause the danger of public opinion losing control. In that case, it is not guiding public opinion, but being kidnapped by public opinion, so it is time to leave Hangzhou
.
My friend Xiang Gongzi planned to return to his hometown in fine clothes and show off in his hometown, while Fang Yingwu planned to go directly to the capital.
First of all, the canal has not yet frozen, so it is relatively comfortable to take a boat for the entire journey north. Otherwise, if you leave later, you will have to transfer to a horse-drawn carriage and take the overland route when you reach the north, which is very inconvenient.
Secondly, with his father's dazzling achievements ahead of him, Fang Yingwu felt that it would be meaningless for him to return home. The main reason was that he didn't have too many feelings about returning home in glory and honoring his ancestors. He might as well seize the time to go to the capital as early as possible to prepare for the exams in the spring of next year.
Before leaving, there was one last thing to do, which was to bring Mrs. Wang, whom she had known for several years, into the house as her second concubine.
This happy event was held in a very low-key manner. Neither the Wang family nor Fang Yingwu himself wanted to make it too public. For Wang Dahu, giving a daughter as a concubine was not something worth showing off. If possible, keep it low-key. As for Fang Yingwu,
You also have to be low-key.
In the end, it was simply done behind closed doors, and only Wang Kui and Xiang Chengxian from the same clan were invited to the scene. Even though Fang Yingwu felt that he owed Mrs. Wang something, he had no choice but to make up for it slowly over time.
Then Fang Yingwu dragged his family and left Hangzhou and headed north along the canal, retraveling the waterway he took two years ago. Of course, it is much more comfortable now than it was two years ago.
In order to save the trouble of transferring ships on the road, Wang Dahu directly arranged a large ship to transport the goods to the other end of the canal. In addition, he also sent a family of three as servants and maids, including a middle-aged couple and a
My daughter went north with Fang Yingwu.
In this way, Fang Yingwu and his party consisted of one master, two concubines, one attendant, and three servants and maids, a total of seven people. This posture was much more luxurious than the last trip. It was somewhat like a rich man.
After going to say goodbye to Governor Wang again, Fang Yingwu set off from the pier outside Wulinmen in Hangzhou City, which is also the southernmost end of the canal, and his destination was the northernmost end of the canal.
Among the new imperial examination candidates, Fang Yingwu was probably the first one to set out to the north. He did not see any of his colleagues from this province along the way. However, he was accompanied by two beautiful concubines, one charming and the other charming. They talked and laughed or played chess on the way.
It won't be too lonely. It's much better than the lonely journey he took when he returned from the north last year.
Crossed the river from Zhenjiang, then crossed the river from Huai'an, and walked for another half a month until we reached Tongzhou. This is the end of the canal. It is still dozens of miles away from the capital, but the waterway below is not accessible to ordinary civilian ships.
.
At this time, the world was at peace for a long time, business gradually prospered, and Tongzhou Zhangjiawan Terminal also emerged in response to the situation. With its unique hub location, it became one of the largest material distribution centers in the north, known as the gateway to Jingdong.
However, Fang Yingwu and his party who came from Hangzhou were not new to this kind of prosperity. After landing, they found a large hotel to stay in. After that, Fang Yingwu sent his chief follower Wang Ying to rent three large cars.
In preparation for traveling tomorrow.
Fang Yingwu was talking to Yu and Lan in the house when he suddenly heard a lot of noise outside. First there were a few noises. Then there were shouts like ghosts crying and wolves howling, occasionally mixed with a few muffled sounds.
It seemed like there was a group fight? Fang Yingwu frowned and said, "Sit down here and let me see what's going on outside."
Fang Yingwu lifted the door curtain and stood outside to watch. At this time, many guests secretly watched the excitement.
There were already no less than twenty people crowded in the courtyard. On one side were a dozen sergeant-looking men, and on the other side were storekeepers and the like.
But I saw people who looked like sergeants holding sticks, chasing the shopkeeper and beating the storekeeper. The shopkeeper had little power to fight back, or he didn't dare to fight back, so he only dared to run around and try to escape. The scene was extremely chaotic, and it was like a chicken and a dog.
Jump.
Fang Yingwu then saw a dignified-looking man standing under the tree in the courtyard. He was wearing a well-made satin jacket with arrow sleeves and kept shouting orders. He seemed to be the leader of the sergeant side.
Fang Yingwu shook his head. This situation seemed to indicate that some powerful slave had come out to bully others. There were many rich and powerful families in the capital, and the water was very deep. Now he had no official, no position, no power, and he couldn't take care of it at all - he was here
He may be considered a figure in Zhejiang, but he cannot be considered a big figure in the capital.
The curtain behind the door flickered, and Sister Yu poked her head out of the room and looked around. Of the two concubines, Wang Lan was the more calm-tempered, but Wang Yu was the more active one and couldn't help but pop in to watch the fun.
The leader who led his team to attack the store saw that he had won a complete victory and couldn't help but look forward to his success with pride.
Seeing a lot of spectators inside and outside the surrounding rooms, he looked around and said loudly: "I'm just here to look for the store. It has nothing to do with you. Guests don't need to panic! Maybe the store will change hands in a few days, and the store will still be open."
Please ask Thor to continue taking care of the business!"
This attitude was extremely arrogant, and it was simply a blatant and unscrupulous grab for land. Fang Yingwu thought for a few times, whose family they were from?
The leader suddenly seemed to notice something, his eyes lit up, and he walked towards Fang Yingwu. Seeing a stranger approaching, Wang Yu retracted his head and hid in the house.
The leader reluctantly glanced at the door curtain for a few times, then looked away, and the other party responded: "I am Xu Da, I am the Jin Yiwei Baihu, I wonder what I call this little lady?"
Fang Yingwu was surprised, not because of Xu Baihu's name. There were many people with the same name in the world. What surprised him was that looking at Xu Baihu's squinting look, could he be running towards Yu who showed up?
Is your sister here?
Don't these bloody things only happen in novels? Fang Yingwu muttered and replied: "Yingwu below, my father..."
Xu Baihu waved his hand impatiently, "I didn't ask you! By the way, who is the young lady?"
Fang Yingwu's face darkened, "Don't you know not to ask questions if it's inappropriate? It has nothing to do with you who the other people's female relatives are, so please go back!"
Xu Da smiled and said, "Young man, I am on a business trip under the orders of Commander Wan. Do you know how powerful it is?"
Commander Wan? Could it be Wan Tong who had dealt with him? He finally became the commander? Fang Yingwu subconsciously asked: "Where is Mr. Yuan?"
Xu Da was even more proud, "Yuan Bin has been promoted to the Governor's Office and no longer has to take care of the royal guards! Now Commander Wan is in charge."
Of course Fang Yingwu understood that the main purpose of what Xu Baihu said was to threaten him. A Jinyiwei commander was certainly very intimidating. Moreover, he knew his own family affairs. The last time he went to the capital, he did not get along with Wantong very pleasantly.
, I just don’t know if Wantong still holds a grudge.
He took a few deep breaths to calm down. It was useless to be angry at this time. However, the name of the person in front of him was Xu Da, and his master was Wantong. These two names put together made Fang Yingwu vaguely feel that there were some rumors and allusions.
