Chapter 31 Rumors

Wang Ningzhi has been fascinated by Goji recently.

In the absence of postmodern electronic products such as TVs, mobile phones, computers and other postmodern electronic products to supplement their inner emptiness, in order to pass the time, he has been studying things that make him obsessed with it enough to forget the passage of time. Fortunately, he really found...but the search process is extremely painful. What is Taoism? It is a deceptive; what is martial arts? It is fitness. The colorful things described in later literary works, here, in the world he saw with his own eyes, seem to have lost their mysterious colors, become rough and boring, making him unable to get a little interested.

Obviously, the thoughts of becoming the Nine-Turn Earth Immortal or the leader of the martial arts world are gone.

Fortunately, there are also board games: chess, Go, Go. The first two categories are not only playing the same way as the styles of later generations, but they are soon abandoned by him, but only Goji is still a good match. That's it. He often loses chess during the game against the students... On weekdays, he is mostly lazy and unwilling to use his brain.

"Second brother, you are cheating again." Seeing Wang Ningzhi regretting the chess movement, the little girl Xi Daomao was so angry, but she had no choice but to threaten Wang Ningzhi, "If you do this, I will really complain to my second sister-in-law."

The students watching the onlookers laughed. It seemed that they were obviously used to Wang Ningzhi's regret. Mr. Wang Ningzhi was different from other gentlemen. Not only did he not have a sense of urgency when getting along with each other, he was also very friendly. Of course, the more intimate the person was, the more scared the person was, and they had tasted it.

Wang Mengjiang smiled and said, "The second brother regrets chess and has become a habit. Don't you know it?"

Wang Ningzhi smiled and didn't care at all about their reactions. For him, it was boring to play chess simply. If he regretted a few moves on the way and the two sides were quarreling, it would be interesting. In this way, he could also pass the time that made him feel bored.

For example, at this time, it is cloudy and may rain at any time, and you cannot go out. After exercising in the morning, you will come here to teach students after taking a shower. You don’t rush to leave after class. You can play chess and quarrel. During the idle play, you can use the techniques of later generations to guide students to learn and cultivate their views.

Unlike other men who were immersed in business wars, he felt very kind to children. Getting along with them could bring him short childhood memories, which were one of his few innocent and free days.

"Five consecutive games, I won." After regretting the chess, Wang Ningzhi began to be smooth sailing. Instead, Xi Daomao made mistakes one after another, and was exploited by the treacherous black boy, and the fifth consecutive game was successful.

"Hmph, I will never play with my second brother anymore, I will always be fooled." Xi Daomao turned his head and said that he was a principled person.

Wang Meng and Jiang Surili next to him had a good relationship with the little girl. At this time, he stretched out his hand and pinched her face and laughed: "Oh, are you really not playing anymore? I remember you said that yesterday, but today my second brother set up the chessboard. Who took the lead in taking the position?"

"Sister Meng Jiang is also good or bad." Xi Daomao blushed, but it was difficult to see people. He got up from the mat and threw himself into Wang Meng Jiang's arms, and started to fight.

Just when Wang Xianzhi wanted to take over Xi Daomao's position, a dry cough came from beside him, which attracted them to see, but it was Wang Xian.

The two little girls fighting immediately dispersed and sat down honestly. Wang Xian was obviously different from Wang Ningzhi. He had always been disliked by their ignorant fights. Now it was just because Wang Ningzhi was here that he did not criticize them, otherwise they would definitely be punished.

"Erlang, come on." Wang Xian said, although his face was plain, Wang Ningzhi still saw a trace of uneasiness.

So he said to the people on both sides: "You guys have fun first, I'll go there."

After saying that, he followed Wang Xian and walked out. Wang Xian didn't stop, so he had to follow him and talk while walking.

"Is there any rumors about my elder brother or the Wang family outside?" Since Wang Xuanzhi resigned, he has been thinking about this matter. The seventy plots sent to various places are due to the distance and the time intervals when the news is transmitted, which is not easy to overcome.

Wang Xian shook his head: "It's not this, but Saburo Silang is back."

"An Shi's official leave? They have only been away from home for more than a month, why are they back so soon... Something happened?" After a brief analysis of Wang Ningzhi, he noticed something. First, it was Wang Xuanzhi, and now it was Wang Suzhi and Wang Huanzhi. Xu Shen's speed of action was not slow. Instead, he neglected and did not plot them for a while.

They left the school but did not go to Wang Xizhi. Wang Xian explained a few words, probably because he was afraid that his father would blame him, so he had to come back secretly. Because Dalang was seriously ill, he was inconvenient to disturb him, so he was now waiting in the second room.

After arriving at the second room, Wang Xian left, but before leaving, he said to Wang Ningzhi: "This matter is strange, Erlang should be cautious."

This was something that was noticed, but even so, Wang Xian didn't have the intention to leave the Wang family. Although the lean camel was bigger than a horse, even if there was something wrong with the Wang family, his personal character was also shown, which made Wang Ningzhi very fond of him.

Since Wang Ningzhi took over the family, the second house has become a constant area for slaves to enter and exit. However, Wang Ningzhi doesn't like to stay at home every day, so he puts the time to handle things before dinner every day. So now, there is no one except the slaves who originally belonged to the second house.

Seeing him coming back, Qing'e hurriedly answered, without saying a word, but pointed to the study and said, "The young lady is inside."

"I understand, go and watch, don't let others get close." Wang Ningzhi explained a few words, walked towards the study room, pushed open the door and went in, and saw Xie Daoyun sitting upright on the mat where she often sat, combing her hair bun, looking extremely virtuous. There was a cup of hot tea in front of her, but she didn't drink it. Instead, Wang Suzhi and Wang Huanzhi spoke opposite him. When he saw him coming in, he hurriedly got up to serve him, and after everything was arranged, he refused to leave.

When she was not alone with her husband, Xie Daoyuan was just an ordinary woman, so she naturally would not deliberately show her intelligence.

Wang Ningzhi looked at the two younger brothers opposite him, and saw their clothes wrinkled, their faces were exhausted and filled with unhealthy pale. He frowned. He was so embarrassed that he obviously encountered something bad: "How could Mr. An Shi allow you to pretend?"

The two of them had ashamed on their faces, and Wang Huanzhi replied: "I was driven back by the teacher."

"Come back?" The hot tea left by Xie Daoyun was obviously drunk. Wang Ningzhi didn't dislike it. He picked it up and drank it all, and continued, "Are you two causing trouble? Or are you framed? The Wang and Xie families have a relative. If it is too much, Mr. Anshi will not drive you back."

"It must be framed..." Wang Huanzhi hesitated a little, looked around and finally said, "Second brother, have you ever heard about the elder brother... Is the elder brother really forced to resign because he was discovered to have moved military funds and weapons privately?"

"Oh? Do you all believe this?" When they heard that Wang Xuanzhi's incident was obviously a rumor, it seemed that Xu Lian had really taken action. It was just because the inquiring department had not come back, so the information was accepted a little late, but he was not panic. After all, in his expectation, "It was obviously a rumor. Even if it was not a rumor, Mr. An Shi would not blame you two for your elder brother's affairs, right?"

"We had a fight with the person who spread the rumors because of this. When Mr. Anshi discovered it, he punished us... Afterwards, Yougong and I were angry and drank too much, and we ended up talking nonsense while Mr. Anshi was giving lectures..."

After hearing this, Wang Ningzhi rubbed his forehead and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: They are really two naughty kids.

No wonder they sneaked home and didn't dare to let their father know. There was no need to think about it. Once Wang Xizhi knew about such embarrassing things as being driven home by his father's friends, he would inevitably get angry even if he had good cultivation. The fate of the two of them was easy to guess.

"Second brother, this is the letter that Mr. An Shi asked us to bring back, saying that he would let his father see...but it is a bit inappropriate for us to appear in front of his father." Wang Suzhi begged, "Or, second brother, you should first look at the contents inside. If it is a big deal, then the second brother will tell his father."

A well-sealed letter was handed over, but it has not been opened yet.

Wang Ningzhi did not refuse. He is now in charge of the family. Logically speaking, this kind of thing should be handed over to him first. Then he opened the envelope and saw the content in his eyes. He quickly shook his head, glanced at his two younger brothers with some evil taste, but did not tell them the specific content... The two of them dared not hand the letter to Wang Xizhi, but did not know that the letter itself was not written by Xie An to Wang Xizhi, but to himself. The letter was written in classical Chinese, but fortunately he could understand it. The beginning stated that if the guess was right, the person who opened the letter should be Wang Shuping, Wang Erlang, etc., who had already seen through the dirty Wang Huanzhi and Wang Suzhi.

The letter was not much. First, he mentioned the affairs of Wang Huanzhi and the others, saying that he knew that they were killed, and that they were not because of drinking, but because they were drugged - Wushi San. This shows that he could not tell the difference and talk nonsense. The reason why he was sent home was to worry about something happening there. In addition, he also mentioned Wang Xuanzhi, analyzed the information of each party, and then asked Wang Ningzhi to pay more attention.

After reading it, Wang Ningzhi grouped the letters into a group, looked at his two younger brothers, and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal. You can go and dress up first. I will take you to see your father tomorrow. Don't worry, I will tell my father that I have some concerns about you because of my elder brother's affairs, so I will take you back."

...

...

Xie Daoyun didn't know what Wang Ningzhi was busy with. In her opinion, Sanlang Silang's return home was not a big deal. However, after they left, Wang Ningzhi still locked himself in the study and was busy. After dinner was prepared, he ordered several times but still couldn't come out. Knowing that Wang Ningzhi changed the dishes, their daily food became richer. As Huaner said, although Guo Shisi, the kitchen chef, was stupid, but after doing so, he was quite good.

"When you go in, send these foods to your husband." Xie Daoyun said to Chen Quan and others who came from outside, stuffing the things Qing'e was holding into their hands, "Go, remember to let your husband eat while it's hot."

"Yes, it will definitely be done." Chen Quan and the others dare not underestimate the second young lady. They often come here know that the second young lady is not easy to mess with. Unlike the peasant women who are shy, bold but vulgar when they see them on weekdays, they often squint their eyes and make them scared for a long time, and they will sigh after they go back. Only a big man like Erlang can suppress this talented woman.

In the study, Wang Ningzhi was still writing.

After more than a month of study, his calligraphy level has improved rapidly. It seems that it should be related to the remaining inertia of his predecessors. Whether it is calligraphy, painting, or the language of this era can be clearly understood as time traveling... Although calligraphy cannot be called "master", it is still easy for people to understand.

"It should be related to my elder brother's affairs? Is it privately to use military equipment, or to transfer military funds, or to have bad character, and has a bad relationship with colleagues?" After Chen Quan and the others came in, Wang Ningzhi stopped pen, washed his hands in a basin on the side, and washed away the ink stains stained on his hands. Then he took a towel and asked while wiping his hands.

"Yes...yes." The seven captains nodded and pushed the harvest. The servant said, "In addition to Dalang's affairs, there are many other remarks, which are targeted at our Wang family."

"Speak and listen."

"There are also rumors that Sanlang and Silang like male sex when they were studying abroad, and that they took Wushi San during lectures, as well as rumors that Lang Jun (Wang Xizhi) was critically ill, and even some bad words about Shuhu Gong (Wang Biaozhi) and Jinglun Gong (Wang Shao). Now they have heard of them in the countryside. We have already verified that these news are related to the county magistrate." Fengshou is smart and knows what Wang Ningzhi wants to hear, so he will try to throw away those useless nonsense. "It cannot be verified for the specific matter. But these rumors are reported by different people. We have not been able to verify them all, but what has been verified is related to the county magistrate's office."

Wang Biaozhi and Wang Shao and others are all Wang Ningzhi's uncles and uncles, and they are close. And if Wang Ningzhi remembers well, Wang Biaozhi's current identity should be the general of the army, the inner historian of Kuaiji, and the attendant of the Sanqi, and now he lives in Kuaiji County. Obviously, Xu Shen's public opinion and rumors about the Wang family are all-round, not just Wang Xizhi's lineage... This is enough to make him think deeply. If he simply deals with himself, or Wang Xizhi's lineage, he should not have to make such a big fuss, which is obviously arousing disputes among the gentry.

"If something goes wrong, there will be a demon..." He sighed in his heart. For him personally, he was unwilling to get involved in these troubles.

After sorting out the desk, he handed over the things he wrote out in a hurry to Fengshou and said, "I have already made it clear. Thank you for your hard work, but at an extraordinary moment, I will remember your hard work in my heart. When this storm has passed, I will reward you on merits and deeds... This is recorded on what I need you to spread to the villagers. What should I do not need to teach you, right?"

Fengshou took it over and looked at it, his expression changed richly. After a while, he raised his head, as if he had re-recognized Wang Ningzhi, but he quickly returned to normal, and he laughed and said, "No need to teach."

"Okay, you guys go, go back and have some good food, and have a good rest tonight."

"Yes." They agreed, but when they left, Chen Quan pointed to the food and said to Wang Ningzhi, "Erlang, eat while it's hot... you must remember!"

Wang Ningzhi, who knew very well, couldn't help but smile and waved his hand hard: "Gongguangguang..."
