Jiang Wang was stunned.
That's it? It's that simple?
Chung Geng Sheng had to ask Marquis Bowang or Marquis Dingyuan to do this, but you just need to send a letter?
Brother Yan, if you're so powerful, why didn't you say so earlier?
"Brother Yan." Jiang Wang was filled with respect. "I was young and didn't know any better. If I did anything wrong, please forgive me. Now that I've grown up, it's good for us to be on good terms. "
Who did he learn this from?
Yan Fu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I'm not saying that I have more connections than Chongxuan Fat. The entire Qi Department's government affairs are like mountains and seas. Even though there are nine court officials, they can't do everything by themselves. There are many officials below them. For example, the list of participants for the Yellow River Meeting has to be reported up level by level.
For example, Junggenjia's foundation is in the Military Hall, so he has to rely on the influence of the marquis to pass a message directly to the court officials.
I only need to write a letter and hand it to any official, and it can easily be passed to the court officials. When the court officials see that I'm the one who recommended it, they usually won't make things difficult for me. After all, my grandfather … "
He paused at this point. "Of course, the main reason why this matter is easy is because you do have the qualifications to do so. Your strength and reputation are enough. It's not against the rules to recommend you! "
People who weren't close to him wouldn't say such things.
He didn't need to say anything. He just needed to mention it lightly, and it was enough for Jiang Wang to owe him a big favor.
Chung Geng Sheng knew that it was easy for Yan Fu to do this, but he didn't say how easy it was. It was because if Yan Fu wanted a big favor, it was only right!
Yan Fu was very familiar with the formalities between nobles, but he didn't want Jiang Wang to do this.
That was because those who were truly familiar with Jiang Wang knew that he was a rare and sincere person. If you treated him with sincerity, you would definitely get sincerity in return.
Jiang Wang didn't say anything to express his gratitude. Instead, he continued to make jokes in a deadpan manner. "Brother Yan, it was presumptuous of me to address you as my brother in the past. At that time, I only knew that you were rich, but I didn't know that you were so rich. Later, I found out that you were so rich, but I didn't know that you were so powerful! Don't say anything else. In the future, I will call you Brother Fu, and you will call me Brother Wang! "
Some things only needed to be kept in mind.
Not everyone could casually write a post and hand it in front of the Imperial Councilor. Yan Fu's casual actions were the power and status that many people dreamed of. However, Yan Fu would not help everyone. For a Young Master like him, money could be thrown away and spent as he pleased. However, something as simple as writing a post was not something he would do easily.
This was because every post was a waste of the Yan family's friendship that had been accumulated over the years. If Yan Fu couldn't get up before they ran out, the Yan family would be gone.
Many top notch families and meritorious families had fallen in this way.
Yan Fu didn't argue with him. With his usual demeanor, he continued in a gentle voice, "There won't be any problems with the Political Affairs Hall. When the list is presented to the Emperor, no one can say for sure. Both the civil and martial competitions are possible. Of course … the most important thing is the Emperor's heart! "
Jiang Wang rubbed his chin. He wondered if the purple robe that he had been given before counted as "the Emperor's heart".
However, there was really no need to think about it. He had only been in Qi for a few years. Although he had settled down, some things needed time to accumulate. There were many disciples from famous families who might have been watched by the Emperor of Qi as they grew up. How could they compare?
Jiang Wang stopped thinking about it and chuckled softly. "Who cares if it's a civil or martial competition? I will fight with my sword!"
Indeed, there was no need for him to think about it. Since he had already made up his mind to fight, no matter who the opponent was, no matter how they fought, he would fight with his sword!
"Good courage!" Young Master Yan clapped his hands and sighed. "I'm already looking forward to that day!"
The two of them chatted for a while and talked about the opponents they should pay attention to. The Yan Prefecture's butler hurried in and whispered something into Yan Fu's ear.
With Jiang Wang's hearing, he could hear it clearly. However, he deliberately controlled the transmission of the sound and didn't listen.
Yan Fu turned around and said to Jiang Wang with a complicated expression, "Miss Wen is coming …"
His new bride was Wen Tinglan, the daughter of Wen Yanyu, the Imperial Court's Minister of Justice.
Jiang Wang stood up considerately. "Then I'll leave first. Let's drink together later."
"No, what I mean is …" Yan Fu reached out and stopped him. "Don't go yet. Stay with me for a while. I didn't know that she suddenly came. I feel a little guilty now … "
"…" Jiang Wang said in a muffled voice, "I don't have any experience either."
"Stay with me for a while," Yan Fu persuaded him. Then, he said to the butler, "Quickly invite Miss Wen in."
Jiang Wang still wanted to decline, but he heard the sound of footsteps.
"There's no need to invite me in." A gentle and pleasant voice sounded. "I've already come uninvited."
Yan Fu quickly stood up to welcome her. "Hahaha, Miss Wen, how come you're free today?"
No matter how one listened to his laughter, it sounded dry.
Then, thinking about how Yan Fu was sent overseas by Jiang Wuyou … Jiang Wang suddenly felt uncomfortable sitting in this chair. He really wanted to go home.
Yan Fu was right. If he had known that it would be so easy to get the quota for the Yellow River Meeting, he would have written a letter. Why did he have to come to the Yan Prefecture and suffer with them?
Lord Jiang forced himself to calm down and sat firmly.
No matter what, he couldn't be weak.
He tried to look as calm as possible and smiled as gently as possible. "Miss Wen, it's an honor to meet you today."
The person who walked into the hall was a gentle and beautiful woman. She had excellent manners as she walked. At first glance, one could tell that she wasn't raised by an ordinary family.
When she saw Jiang Wang, she bowed. "Prince Jiang, Ting Lan has been rude. I hope I didn't interrupt your business? "
Her voice was pleasant, her expression was gentle, her attitude was kind, and her words were polite. However, why did it sound a little awkward?
Da Qi didn't have a rule that men and women couldn't meet before the wedding. It was normal for men and women who were engaged to meet and have fun together.
If one put their identity in her shoes, one would know why it was awkward. Yan Fu's future wife came to see Yan Fu, but she said to Jiang Wang that he was being rude …
Jiang Wang, who came from the countryside, didn't know how to respond. He stood up and said, "No, no, we've finished our business."
He wanted to leave and completely forgot about Yan Fu's request. "Why don't you talk first? I still have something to do … "
"Hahahaha." Yan Fu laughed nervously and covered up Jiang Wang's excuse. "It's not rude. We're all friends. Come, sit down and talk!"
He pushed Jiang Wang back to his seat without a trace.
He turned around and ordered, "Hurry up and serve the tea. I don't need to emphasize what Miss Wen likes to drink, right?"
