Although Sang Luo knew that Tang Xiaohao's request would not harm him, he would definitely not let him go easily. The most important thing is that Sang Luo could not predict what Tang Xiaohao planned because this kid's thinking was different from ordinary people and he would not let him go easily.
Play your cards according to the routine.
Tang Xiaohao stood up and deliberately walked in front of Sang Luo, stopping and stopping, and would also stop and deliberately look at Sang Luo.
Although Sang Luo kept smiling, he was still worried. He didn't know what methods this kid would think of to fix himself.
Suddenly, Tang Xiaohao walked directly to Sang Luo: "Great counselor, how much is your annual salary?"
Sang Luo said: "About 1,200 silver dragons."
Tang Xiaohao nodded when he heard this: "That month is almost a hundred silver dragons. However, that can only be seen from the outside. With your status, the emperor's reward, and the filial piety of those below, and those who use the back door to gain relationships, one
Why don’t you get a hundred gold dragons every year?”
The currency of the Dachang Dynasty, from top to bottom, was the Golden Dragon, which was the Red Dragon Gold, then the Silver Dragon, the Bronze Dragon and the Iron Dragon.
Originally, each type of coin had a different value, but later it was canceled because it was too troublesome. It was changed to one hundred iron dragons into one copper dragon, one hundred copper dragons into one silver dragon, and one hundred silver dragons into one gold dragon.
The golden dragon is also called the red dragon. Generally speaking, the golden dragon is the gold coin. In addition, there are the red dragon lin, the red dragon eye and the dragon tripod gold.
The red dragon lin is the gold leaf, the red dragon eye is the gold bead, and the dragon tripod gold is the gold nugget.
In addition, there is also the Jiuyuan Pass, which is easy to carry, but the pass generally refers to the Silver Dragon, and can only be used for large-scale transactions. When using it, you must have government approval, otherwise it is not allowed to be used.
Sang Luo just smiled awkwardly, because Tang Xiaohao was right. The money he actually received every year was much more than what he saw on the surface. However, it was naturally not as good as Tang Xiaohao, who had the Nanrong family behind him.
A prodigal son can take a bag of gold beads to the streets anytime and anywhere to squander it. This is a well-known fact in Shendu City.
At the same time, Sang Luo also wondered, is this guy trying to blackmail him? Not right? He is so rich.
Tang Xiaohao sat down again: "I am a person with no future. I only care about women and money, and I have no interest in power. Of course, you can't give me power."
Although Tang Xiaohao was mocking himself, he was actually mocking Sang Luo. Sang Luo could understand, but couldn't say anything. After all, as a great counselor, he had no real power, and he knew that Tang Xiaohao must vent his anger in words.
Sang Luo didn't take the initiative to say anything, just looked at Tang Xiaohao.
Tang Xiaohao finally said: "One hundred thousand golden dragons."
Sang Luo almost got angry when he heard this, but he still held it back: "Prince-in-law, this amount..."
Tang Xiaohao said with a playful smile: "Great counselor, you brought this to your door yourself. If you didn't tell me, how would I know about the adultery between you and the princess?"
"The word adultery is unavoidable..." Sang Luo suppressed the anger in his heart, "One hundred thousand golden dragons are too many. Sang Luo will never make so much money in his entire life."
Tang Xiaohao picked up Sang Luo's tea cup and handed it to him: "But I will wear this cuckold for the rest of my life. Besides, you also know that there is no way to take it off after wearing it."
Sang Luo could only say: "Can we discuss it again?"
In fact, Tang Xiaohao doesn't know how close Sang Luo and Princess Baomeng are to each other. Is there a physical relationship? Because for a girl like Princess Baomeng who has just begun to fall in love, even if there is no physical relationship, she will still think that some
Once the words are spoken, they last forever. Therefore, Tang Xiaohao opened his mouth like a lion to see how Sang Luo would react.
Seeing what Sang Luo said, Tang Xiaohao was still not sure, but it was still hard to ask directly, so he lied: "By the way, before the wedding last night, the princess was not feeling well and actually vomited. What do you think happened?"
Sang Luo was obviously stunned, and he was also trying to remember quickly. It was this stunned look that let Tang Xiaohao know that the two of them must have had sex. If not, even if Sang Luo was stunned, he would also look surprised and angry.
expression without showing surprise or fear in his eyes.
However, Sang Luo quickly reacted: "It must be that the princess is unwell, so I have to worry about the prince consort."
Damn it, are you still pretending? Tang Xiaohao stood up and said: "One hundred thousand gold dragons, every penny is a lot, I don't need you to give it to me now, just write an IOU, but you have to write ten IOUs, each one is written 10,000 gold dragons,
Not only do I need your fingerprints, but I also need your great counselor’s seal. Both are indispensable. I’ll give you some time to think about it.”
Tang Xiaohao said and walked out. The extremely angry Sang Luo sat there and tried to regain his composure. Unexpectedly, Tang Xiaohao quickly turned back and came directly to Sang Luo and said: "The time is up, have you thought clearly?"
Are you saying give me time to think about it!? Sang Luo looked helpless, but Tang Xiaohao had a playful smile on his face.
Is it true that Tang Xiaohao wants to blackmail Sang Luo because he was cuckolded? No. It’s because Sang Luo has a handle on him, and he must also grab a handle on Sang Luo in exchange, otherwise, he may do anything in the future.
Because this handle is controlled by Sang Luo.
Although Tang Xiaohao still doesn't know whether he will have any interaction with Sang Luo in the future, it is always right to prepare for a rainy day.
Sang Luo knew that he had no choice. He couldn't force it. He had to ease the matter first, so he had no choice but to say: "Please, Prince Consort, ask someone to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone."
While Sang Luo was writing the IOU, he kept taking deep breaths and trying to stabilize his uneasy emotions.
Tang Xiaohao was drinking tea and watching from the side. He thought about the teachings his father and teachers had given him since he was a child. He was glad that he had kept those teachings in mind, especially about matters between men and women.
This is the meaning of the saying "The wise man who is close to the color and far away is faint". The word "color" is a knife in the head, and there is no way to escape from the pomegranate skirt. Sang Luo, a great strategist, can't pass the test of love for his children, and he is basically finished.
However, Tang Xiaohao also considered another question, that is, was the incident between Sang Luo and Princess Baomeng a coincidence or inevitable? If it was inevitable, then someone deliberately arranged the matter, but there is only one person who can arrange it in this way.
.
That is the current emperor Ji Chengying.
This emperor is a bit interesting. Tang Xiaohao seemed to see the emperor's big hands grabbing the back of Sang Luo's neck, just like he sometimes grabbed the jelly beans trying to escape.
——
Imperial City, Qinzheng Hall.
Qinzheng Hall was originally supposed to be the place where the emperor met with important ministers and reviewed memorials on weekdays. However, after Ji Chengying came to the throne, because he did not want others to see through him, he almost never came here. Even if he reviewed memorials, he would always do so in his imperial study room.
, here instead became a place for him to meet and play chess with his younger brother Ji Hanguang.
Because all the servants had been sent away, Prince Xi Ji Hanguang was lying on his side, holding the white piece in his hand, hesitating because he had calculated that if he made the wrong move, everything would be lost.
"If you don't seize the key points of Yanqi, then you will lose," Ji Chengying stretched, "A white man is like a tiger, but what I am waiting for is your reckless tiger."
Ji Hanguang glanced at Ji Chengying: "I don't have a reckless tiger in my hand, but the emperor has a tight trap on the tiger in his hand."
Ji Chengying picked up the teacup: "What do you mean?"
Ji Hanguang raised the white stone and said, "Sang Luo."
Ji Chengying deliberately pretended to be stupid: "He is the most intelligent in the world, how can I trap him?"
Ji Hanguang said: "Really? Then why did you let him be Princess Baomeng's teacher after you ascended the throne? Isn't that just to set a trap for him?"
Ji Chengying said slowly: "To be afraid of something when you are rubbing it, to be afraid of it when it is high, to prove it when it is small. When my father was still alive, he repeatedly warned us to control people based on their nature, so we have to use different methods to deal with different people."
Ji Hanguang picked up the tea cup: "I didn't expect that Sang Luo couldn't pass the test of being a woman."
Ji Chengying looked at the chessboard: "I didn't know that at first, but before I took the throne, the Xuanbu investigated Sang Luo's past very clearly. He once had a serious illness, and the cause of the illness was because the woman he liked married.
For others, it was not because the woman changed her heart, but because his master Hu Shen believed that the woman was not worthy of him, so he tried to force the family to get the woman married as soon as possible. However, no one expected that Sang Luo would become ill as a result.
I also knew from this that this guy is a lover."
Ji Hanguang looked at Ji Chengying: "The shortcoming of love is sentimentality. Of course, Sang Luo is only like this when it comes to matters between men and women, not other things, which is a pity."
Ji Chengying shook his head: "It's a pity for him, but it's a joy for me. It's precisely because I know that I let him be a teacher for Princess Baomeng. You know, Sang Luo has not married and had children at this age.
, he does not have contact with women on weekdays, but once a girl like Princess Baomeng, who is simple and easily worships a Confucian scholar like him, is placed in front of him, it is impossible not to have feelings for her."
If she were just an ordinary woman, she would not necessarily like someone like Sang Luo. However, Princess Baomeng, who was locked in Rouyuan Palace all day long, saw an elegant and mature man like Sang Luo, and Professor Sang Luo.
When she goes to school, she will also show off her talents, and she will be impressed by Princess Baomeng from the very beginning.
Even if it's not love at first sight, with the blessing of the first good impression, it's only a matter of time before Princess Baomeng falls in love.
Princess Baomeng likes Sang Luo and will definitely be around Sang Luo all day long. Whether it is words, eyes or body movements, it will make Sang Luo confused and fascinated. In addition, his natural weakness is the affair between his children. Over time, the two of them will become obsessed with each other.
There will definitely be personal relationships.
This was Ji Chengying's purpose, because that was his only chance to seize Sang Luo's handle.
The great counselor of the dynasty, the so-called man with the most wisdom in the world, even if he has no real power, is no less a threat to the emperor than the powerful officials of the Nanrong family. Since the most terrifying thing about him is his head full of wisdom, he is trying to find a way to hide it in the pile of hard
Find the weakest spot in your wisdom, and then pierce it with a sharp sword.
Ji Hanguang asked: "If Tang Xiaohao finds out about this, will he be furious?"
"No, absolutely not," Ji Chengying said confidently, "This kind of dandy who shows mercy everywhere but never shows true feelings has many women around him. He will not be devoted to Princess Baomeng. If he is not devoted to Princess Baomeng, he will not
Jealousy, if you don’t feel jealous, how can you get angry?”
Ji Hanguang smiled: "What if you make a mistake?"
Ji Chengying was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Ji Hanguang said: "That's what I said. From your description of Tang Xiaohao, I feel that he is very similar to you. You know that he is hiding from powerful officials through acting, and he may not be hiding from those who threaten him."
Ji Hanguang's words reminded Ji Chengying, and he put away his previous confidence and looked at the chessboard in front of him.
He is the chess player who controls the overall situation and must not let the chess pieces in his hand turn against the guest. Although Tang Xiaohao still holds it in his hand, it is not considered a chess piece, because only by placing the pieces can the chess piece be completed. Everything is possible.
Hiding oneself makes things happen, and plotting evil makes things happen. Ji Chengying recited these eight words silently in her heart again. This chapter has been completed!
