Next, naturally they just chatted. Li Yuan left Wan He and Wang Gui behind. The purpose was just to confirm Wan He's identity. Wan He had just joined Li Yuan now. If there was really something important, Li Yuan would not arrange for Wan He to do it. After chatting for a while, Li Yuan asked Wan He, Wang Gui and others to go back.
Just when Wan He had just left the study, Li Jiancheng suddenly followed him out. He smiled at Wan He and said: "Mr. Qian, Yuan Ji and I are brothers. Since Mr. Qian was willing to help Yuan Ji before, I will also ask Mr. Qian in the future. Please help me more."
Li Jiancheng's words first stunned Wan He. Then Wan He understood what Li Jiancheng meant. This was another attempt to win over him. He thought about it in his mind. When they were in the living room before, Li Jiancheng had already stated that he wanted to win over him. Now the heat is on. It was almost done. Wan He immediately pretended to be moved. He bowed to Li Jiancheng and said, "If it weren't for the King of Tang and the Crown Prince, I'm afraid I wouldn't have met my cousin. The King of Tang and the Crown Prince I am very grateful for your great kindness. I am willing to take the lead and go through fire and water, no matter what the prince has to do in the future."
Wan He's words are equivalent to expressing his loyalty to Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng also looked happy. If it was just one person who was short of money, Li Jiancheng would not be so happy. The most important thing is that the person who is short of money is the richest person. According to the information coming from Jianghuai, Qian Que's business in Jianghuai can be said to be huge. He even has the title of the top four merchants in Jianghuai. If it weren't for offending the overlord of Jianghuai, Du Fuwei. I'm afraid I won't be able to do business in Chang'an.
Although people of this era attach great importance to the hierarchy of scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, being a big merchant means that he has more money. And for Li Jiancheng, who is determined to compete with Li Shimin for power, this money is particularly important. It's important. It costs money to win over the ministers of the DPRK and China. It also costs money to win over the military generals. Maybe one day we will have to fight with Li Shimin for real. Recruiting troops also requires money. It is precisely because of this that Li Jiancheng is here. After confirming Wan He's identity, the purpose of actively wooing Wan He was to obtain a large amount of financial support.
When he saw Wan He leaning towards him, Li Jiancheng couldn't help but shine. He immediately smiled at Wan He and said, "Mr. Qian is too polite. I will personally go to the fifth brother's place to visit Mr. Qian tomorrow." Li Yuan Still in the study, Li Jiancheng wanted to say something, but it was not convenient now. He made an appointment with Wan He, and Li Jiancheng said goodbye to Wan He.
After sending Li Jiancheng away, Wan He also breathed a sigh of relief. In any case, this trip to the Tang Prince's Mansion was finally safe. But when Wan He turned around, he was stunned. He saw that cheap cousin. Wang Gui was still standing there with a smile on his face, just waiting for Wan He. Seeing Wang Gui standing there, Wan He felt awkward in his heart. But Wan He couldn't say anything yet. He could only greet him with a smile. He went forward and said to Wang Gui: "Cousin, you..."
Before Wan He could finish speaking, Wang Gui took a step forward and directly took Wan He's arm. He smiled and said to Wan He: "Cousin, this is the first time you and I have met. We must stay close to each other no matter what. That's it. Come on, come on. Come with me, brother. We brothers are going to have a long talk by candlelight tonight."
After Wang Gui finished speaking, he didn't allow Wan He to say anything more. He actually pulled Wan He and walked out. Fortunately, Wan He reacted quickly. Otherwise, with all the fat on Wan He's body, he would have been pulled to the ground by Wang Gui. He fell down and then dragged him away. Even though Wang Gui was so thin and weak, he walked quite fast. And he was more familiar with the Tang Palace than Wan He. He walked out of the Tang Palace in no time. The servant who led the way earlier was much faster.
Soon, Wang Gui and Wan He walked out of the gate. It was already late at night. At the gate, the crowded carriages were all gone. Only Du Ruhui and others were left standing guard at the gate. Look. When Wan He came out, Du Ruhui and others immediately greeted him. However, when they saw Wang Gui, who was always holding Wan He's arm, Du Ruhui and others looked puzzled. They didn't understand how Wan He came out alone. It becomes two.
Seeing the appearance of Du Ruhui and others, Wan He was also a little embarrassed. He pointed at Wang Gui and said to Du Ruhui and others: "This is my cousin, Lord Wang Gui. You haven't met Lord Wang yet."
There was an allusion to Wan He's words, but he was reminding Du Ruhui and others not to make mistakes. Du Ruhui and Du Hao were both very clever. They quickly turned their heads and bowed to Wang Gui. As for the stubborn Cheng Yao Jin. Anyway, he is dressed as an ordinary clerk. Even if he doesn't understand, it doesn't matter. Wang Gui also glanced at Du Ruhui and others. But he smiled and waved his hands and said: "Okay. Okay. Everyone, get up. Well, cousin My brother's carriage has already left first. I see that your carriage is quite big. Let us brothers take your carriage and leave."
Wang Gui had already spoken. How could Wan He still say no? He secretly said to himself that this guy was really rude. On the surface, he could only nod in agreement. When Wan He nodded in agreement, Wang Gui actually He got on the carriage straight away and got into the carriage. Wan He also winked helplessly at Du Ruhui and others. With their help, he got into the carriage with difficulty. Naturally, Du Ruhui was also close to the carriage. Fortunately, the carriage is big enough. Even if three people get in, it won't feel crowded.
Seeing Wan He enter the carriage, Du Hao and Cheng Yaojin also took their seats one after another. With a wave of their hands, the carriage and the guards immediately rushed towards Li Yuanji's Duke Qi's mansion. As the carriage moved like this, everyone sat down. The three people in the carriage also fell silent. Wan He looked at Wang Gui and then at Du Ruhui, but he didn't know what to say.
After being silent for a while, Du Ruhui, who was next to Wan He, suddenly leaned towards the side of the carriage. He reached out and lifted up a curtain. Then he turned around and said to Wang Gui: "Brother Shujie, you're safe."
Du Ruhui suddenly said such a sentence, which made Wan He stunned. He widened his eyes and looked at Du Ruhui, and then at Wang Gui. His mouth was open for a long time. Finally, he said a sentence: "You. You. You know it."
But Wang Gui chuckled and sat upright. He bowed his hands in front of Wan He and said, "I have met His Highness Prince Liang. I have heard about His Majesty Prince Liang for a long time. I met him today. Prince Liang is extremely witty. Even better than the rumors. I really admire you. I admire you."
"Uh." This time Wan He was even more shocked. He never expected that the other party would reveal his true identity in one breath. Subconsciously, Wan He shrank back and was even more shocked. If he hadn't been wearing such thick clothes, Wan He would have been frightened and jumped up.
Seeing Wan He's appearance, Du Ruhui, who was next to him, quickly stepped forward and held Wan He's shoulders. He said, "My lord, please don't be surprised. Brother Shujie is a close friend of my subordinates. This time, thanks to Brother Shujie's help, . Only then can Li Yuan believe in the identity of the prince."
Wan He's eyes were still wide open. Looking at all this, it was as if he was watching a fantasy. Wang Gui also continued: "My dear brother Ke Ming is exaggerating. In fact, with the wit shown by His Highness Prince Liang just now, . Even without my help, His Highness Prince Liang himself can completely turn the danger into danger. What I have done is just the icing on the cake."
Wan He just sat there paralyzed. He watched Du Ruhui and Wang Gui talking to each other in a lively manner, but he couldn't understand what they were talking about. Now Wan He's mind had already changed. It's all chaos. It's so good. Why did Wang Gui and Du Ruhui know each other again?
Seeing the shocked look on Wan He's face, Du Ruhui and Wang Gui saw it. They laughed at the same time. Then, Du Ruhui slowly explained to Wan He. In fact, Wang Gui, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling were all. They have been close friends for many years. Although Wang Gui was older than Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling was much older, Wang Gui was impressed by their talents. Since Fang Xuanling set up plans for Wan He, he also actively attracted some of his friends to Wan He. Among them, Du Ruhui and Wang Gui were naturally included. However, Wang Gui had already come to Chang'an on the recommendation of another friend, so Fang Xuanling could only give up for the time being.
This time Wan He came to Chang'an. In order to find a reasonable identity for Wan He, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui thought of their good friend Wang Gui again. Although Wang Gui was now loyal to Li Yuan, the two of them had nothing to do with Wang Gui. They have known each other for many years, but they understand Wang Gui's temperament and will never betray their friends. Even if Wang Gui refuses to help, he will never leak the matter of Wan He's trip to Chang'an. And what surprises the two is that the two The person's emissary went to Wang Gui and explained the matter. Wang Gui immediately nodded and agreed. He also arranged the identity of Qian Que for Wan He.
In fact, there is a man named Qian Que in Jianghuai. But a few years ago, there was chaos in Jianghuai. Qian Que also moved his family north and died in the rebellion. Not many people know about this. It is limited to a few family members of Wang Gui. In this way, it is most appropriate to transfer Qian Que's identity to Wan He.
Hearing Du Ruhui's explanation, Wan He felt speechless immediately. He spent a long time trying to figure it out. This Wang Gui turned out to be one of his own. Fortunately, he had been nervous for so long in the study just now. It turned out that everything was due to Wan He. Why are you so worried?
After Du Ruhui finished explaining, Wang Gui smiled and said to Wan He: "I have offended the prince a lot just now. Please forgive me. With Li Yuan's character, there must be spies outside the study just now to spy on me and The process of meeting the prince, so I can only join forces with the prince to perform a play. The purpose is to deceive Li Yuan and his son."
