508 [Three Treasures]
Xiang Nan then went to find He Shen.
"Mr. Ji, what kind of wind is blowing today? It actually brought you here." Heshen asked with a smile when he saw it.
"My lord, Ji will come to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "I'm here to ask for your help."
"Mr. Ji asked me for help?! This is really new." He Shen was stunned and said with a smile, "Okay, if you have any questions, please just tell me. As long as He can do it, I won't refuse."
"Master He, I hope you can help me persuade Chen Weiyuan to write a letter of divorce to Miss Xiangyun." Xiang Nan said immediately, "If you have any conditions, Master He, you can just ask for it. As long as Ji can do it, I will
It’s also a definition that cannot be denied.”
"What's the meaning of Mr. Ji's words? Chen Weiyuan and I have never met each other." Heshen was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then laughed.
"Sir, you don't tell lies in front of a real person. If you don't know Chen Weiyuan, then who sent the servant Ah Fu beside him?
If it weren't for your support, how could Chen Weiyuan, a bookseller, dare to come to my thatched cottage to ask for someone?" Xiang Nan looked at He Shen and said with a smile, "Master He, Ji came here this time to sincerely ask for your help.
.If you continue to be conceited, Ji will have no choice but to leave."
After Xiang Nan finished speaking, he stood up and left.
"Slow down!" He Shen quickly waved his hand, "Since Mr. Ji is so sincere, He can't refuse someone thousands of miles away. Well, I can help. However, I want the three treasures in Mr. Ji's hands."
"What three treasures?" Xiang Nan asked.
"The Great Scroll of Landscapes written by Dong Yuan of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, the Praise for Taoism written by Fan Zhongyan of the Song Dynasty, and the Yuanshe Tie written by Zhuge Liang written by Wang Xizhi of the Jin Dynasty!" He Shen said immediately.
"Master He is indeed well-informed. Yes, those three ancient paintings are all in my hands." Xiang Nan nodded, "Since Master He wants them, Ji is willing to donate them."
"Master Ji really agreed?!" He Shen was shocked when he heard this.
These three ancient paintings are extremely valuable. I don’t know how many people have lost their money and want to get these three ancient paintings. Even the emperor is coveted by them.
Xiang Nan wanted to exchange these three ancient paintings for a woman, which was really unexpected.
"Ji Xiaolan just said that as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it." Xiang Nan nodded.
Although the three ancient paintings were precious, they were of little use to him.
First of all, Ji Xiaolan is not short of money. In addition to his official salary every year, he also has Bingjing, Tanjing, Enstipend, Lumi, etc., which is enough for his living needs. Naturally, he cannot afford to sell paintings for money.
Secondly, because Ji Xiaolan in the play failed to rescue Xiangyun, he finally burned the three ancient paintings, which shows that he is really an infatuated person. Now if Xiang Nan can exchange these three ancient paintings for Xiangyun
, it can be regarded as fulfilling Ji Xiaolan’s wish.
"Mr. Ji is truly a lover." He Shen exclaimed, "But does Mr. Ji think it's worth exchanging these three priceless ancient paintings for a woman?"
Together, these three ancient paintings are worth one million taels of silver, and can buy Huanghua Girl for tens of thousands of people. But Xiang Nan only wants to change to a woman, and a married woman. In Heshen's view, this is quite a loss.
In business, if it were him, he would never do this.
"Although ancient paintings are expensive, it's hard to find a close friend." Xiang Nan smiled, "A scholar can die for a close friend, let alone three paintings?"
"Mr. Ji is such a sweet-tempered person, He Mou admires him." He Shen said with emotion, "Mr. Ji, please allow me to take this opportunity to have a few words of confidence with you.
With your talent, knowledge, and courage, you can definitely influence the situation in the government. However, you are often pedantic and always get dizzy when you see a woman, so it is difficult for you to achieve great results."
Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Master He, I am not a fish, so how can I know the happiness of a fish? Wealth, glory, fame and fortune are not what I want. Being able to spend my life with my best friend is enough to comfort me."
"Mr. Ji is very advanced." He Shen said with a smile.
"Farewell!" Xiang Nangong said with cupped hands.
…
After Xiang Nan left, Heshen found Chen Weiyuan and asked him to write a letter of divorce to Xiangyun.
He has long been salivating over Ji Xiaolan's three ancient paintings.
Whether you collect it yourself or donate it to the emperor, it is a beautiful thing.
As for Chen Weiyuan, he was just a dog he took in. He was a small bookseller and a common man, and he could make Chen Weiyuan unable to live or die with just a few words.
It is naturally a trivial matter for him to write a letter of divorce to divorce his wife.
"Master He, you want me to write a letter of divorce?" Chen Weiyuan asked in confusion, "Don't you still want to use this to ruin Ji Xiaolan's reputation? As soon as I write the letter of divorce, our plan will be over."
Now that he has written a letter of divorce, Xiangyun is no longer his wife, and there is no use for him to arrange it.
"Hey, writing a letter of divorce will make things easier." Heshen waved his hands and said, "Although Xiangyun lives in Ji Mansion, there is no proof, how can we arrange it?
But now, Ji Xiaolan wants you to write a letter of divorce, which is the biggest excuse. Abducting women and forcing people to divorce their wives, combined with these two crimes, Ji Xiaolan will never be able to change his mind."
"This..." Chen Weiyuan hesitated for a while, "Sir, if I divorce Xiangyun, the manuscript of "A Dream of Red Mansions" will never be found again."
"If you can't find it, you can't find it." He Shen waved his hands indifferently.
Chen Weiyuan wanted to find the manuscript of "A Dream of Red Mansions" because he wanted to make money by printing books. But even if scholars came to buy his books, he would only earn tens of thousands of taels of silver.
Even if Chen Weiyuan donated half of the profits to him, it would only be 10,000 to 20,000 silver. But now he has taken three ancient paintings, each of which is priceless, much more valuable than the manuscript of "Dream of Red Mansions".
"Sir..." Chen Weiyuan was still a little unwilling.
"Dream of Red Mansions" doesn't matter to He Shen, but to him, it is the best opportunity to make a fortune.
He had been planning for several years to obtain the manuscript of "A Dream of Red Mansions" and even sent his wife to be an undercover agent.
Now if he can't get the manuscript, all his hard work will be over.
"Why, you didn't listen to what I said?" He Shen couldn't help but said with a straight face when he saw him evading in every possible way.
"I don't dare, I don't dare, I'll just write it now." Seeing this, Chen Weiyuan nodded quickly.
His business still relied on He Shen's protection. Otherwise, the prefect who ransacked his family, the county magistrate who exterminated his family, or any other official could kill him.
"Humph, you know what's going on." He Shen nodded.
…
Chen Weiyuan immediately wrote a letter of divorce with resentment, pressed his fingerprints, and handed it to He Shen.
The next day, Heshen handed the letter of divorce to Xiang Nan, "Mr. Ji, you are lucky to have lived up to your fate."
"It's really refreshing to work with adults, Ji admires it." Xiang Nan nodded, and then handed the three ancient paintings to He Shen as promised.
"Mr. Ji is true to his word, good, good, good!" He Shen said excitedly. He was really excited to buy three ancient paintings.
