Little Peasant Wife - Chapter 487
Liu Jin and Mu Yu greeted him and greeted the magistrate.
At any rate, the county magistrate is also the acting magistrate of Meiyuan county and the parent official of the people on this side.
Lord Wang asked him to receive guests outside, which showed that it was an insult to him.
However, as an old man, he was used to the scene and did not show any dissatisfaction with it.
In the elegant room, Lord Wang looked at them and pointed to their position. “Sit down, don’t be polite.”
Mu Yu and Liu Jin looked at each other, then arched their hands and sat down in turn.
After the two sides sat down, Lord Wang ordered people to deliver the food.
Mu Yu also plans to ask Liu Jin to cook some meals for him. Now it seems that he can’t get what he wants.
Lord Wang looked at Mu Yu and said with a smile, “Mr. mu, we met in Lingyang county.”
When Mu Yu heard the speech, he nodded slightly, “my Lord is really unforgettable.”
Lord Wang smiled and stroked his beard: “I didn’t have a chance to have a good chat with Mr. Mu before. This time, you should drink with me and have a good chat.”
“It should be. Lord Wang invited villains to come for the victims and the people. I don’t know if it’s right?”
Lord Wang frowned slightly when he heard this.
If not, he is afraid that people will ignore the lives of the victims in the future, and he is still in the mood to have fun here.
If so, it’s hard to say why he came here today.
“Mr. Mu is really quick. In fact, I was entrusted by Lord Li. I believe Mr. Mu has heard from Miss Liu. I am willing to pay three times the price for the ten mile incense.”
Liu Jin frowned and didn’t speak, waiting for Mu to deal with it.
“Shili incense is not owned by Miss Liu. If you want to buy it, you naturally have to find the master of Shili incense. Lord Wang doesn’t know that Shili incense is only rented by Miss Liu temporarily?”
Mu Yu looked at Lord Wang with a look of disbelief.
Seeing Mu Yu’s suspicious look, Lord Wang grinned.
“Naturally, I know, and I have found the man named Chen Lin. it is a great honor for him to work for the prime minister. He directly transferred it to me and asked me to go to Beijing with the land deed and present it to the prime minister.”
Liu Jin and Mu Yu looked at each other. It seemed that Lord Wang was not idle. He had already prepared to take down all the shops in Chen Lin’s hands.
However, Chen Lin has only such a shop, and he was unwilling to sell it to Liu Jin before.
He said that it was left by his ancestors. There was only such a shop left. He would never sell it unless he had to.
Now Liu Jin rents it and gives him silver every month. He has no worries about his life. It’s really unreasonable to sell it.
Even the prime minister, he may not sell it, let alone give up the shop for nothing.
As long as you are not a fool, you can guess what’s fishy in it.
Lord Wang seems to have done something to Chen Lin, forcing Chen Lin to agree.
Now, Mingming has got Lord Wang of Shilixiang store and comes to Liu Jin and Mu Yu. Obviously, he wants to get more things.
“The little one will congratulate Lord Wang and the prime minister.” Mu Yu said faintly on one side.
People who don’t know him don’t know the real meaning of his expression. Liu Jin naturally knows that he is very angry now.
Businessmen work hard to earn a little money. These officials will leave in a few words. If they don’t give it, they will do it secretly.
This kind of behavior is really disgusting.
Lord Wang ignored it and replied with a smile: “the prime minister is a high-ranking and powerful man. Will you bow down because of this small rope? These jobs don’t need us to think about the prime minister. Young master Mu is a smart man. I think you know what I want to say?”
“Oh, forgive my ignorance. I really don’t know what adults want to say.” Mu Yu looked at Lord Wang coldly, with a trace of calmness in his eyes.
Lord Wang heard the speech and stopped his chopsticks. Originally, he was going to have some small dishes and had a pleasant negotiation with Mu Yu.
Seeing Mu Yun’s appearance, he immediately understood that Mu Yun did not intend to compromise with him.
“Do you know that many officials in the imperial court have doubts about the famine in Lingyang county? If the prime minister hadn’t insisted, there would be no food here. These are the prime minister’s credit. Unfortunately, the people in the market can’t sympathize with the prime minister’s good intentions. Miss Liu’s kindness is very small, but she can get the whole county , and even the support of the victims in several surrounding counties. Is this fair? ”
Lord Wang questioned them, as if they were unwilling to stand up for the prime minister.
Liu Jin and Mu Yu both looked at him quietly.
He eased his excitement for a while. “Now you two think about it. If you come forward and tell the victims that it is the prime minister’s credit and he taught you to do so, the prime minister will be very happy.”
“I’m really sorry, Lord Wang. We think the prime minister won’t care about this. He is for the country and the people. How can he care about such a small reputation? If other senior officials know, they can’t laugh at the prime minister’s idle work and come to such a remote place to teach a little woman to relieve the disaster and save the people? Is it true that Miss Liu is the prime minister’s illegitimate daughter?”
Mu Yu jokingly smiled and rejected Lord Wang’s words.
Lord Wang’s face suddenly became gloomy.
He believed that he had made his words very clear, but this mu Yu didn’t intend to give in, but felt like he wanted to argue with him.
The magistrate also came up with a voice to ease the tension between the two sides.
“Lord Wang, go back and report to Lord Li and say that what our businessmen value most is honesty. We won’t talk nonsense about nothing, and we won’t marry the prime minister. We appreciate your kindness. We just want to be worthy of our hearts.”
“Well, you are worthy of it. I will go back and report it truthfully.”
In his anger, Lord Wang responded loudly, then forced a smile, raised his glass and drank a toast to Mu Yu.
Seeing this situation, we all know that Lord Wang is probably hostile to Mu Yu and Liu Jin.
This matter has collapsed, and Liu Jin and Mu Yu also feel there is no need to stay.
“Thank you, Lord Wang. We have something else to do. We won’t bother the two adults for dinner. Goodbye.”
Mu Yu got up and said goodbye. The king looked cold and said, “No.”
Mu Yu and Liu Jin went out of the elegant room and chose another elegant room next to them. Liu Jin volunteered to cook some dishes for mu Yu in the kitchen. Mu Yu didn’t stop, so she waited for Liu Jin in the room with a small nail.
