Ouyang Rong understood something immediately, but his brows were still furrowed:

"It's not the promotion quota for your Yin Yang Family Qi Practitioners. What kind of quota is that?"

"This is the opportunity to preside over the Donglin Giant Buddha after it is built. Among the four giant Buddhas, the location where the Donglin Giant Buddha sits is Tiannan..."

Rong Zhen's words are unclear.

"What Tiannan?"

"Lingnan, Jiangnan Second Road."

"What kind of sit-down method?"

Rong Zhen took the bowl to drink the soup and stopped talking. Instead, he suddenly said:

"Ouyang Lianghan, you have been asking me whether Lin Cheng is competing for my position, and the answer is still... no.

"But when it comes to promotion, I feel that Lin Cheng has taken great pains to seize control of your statue this time because he can use the Xingzifang statue to gain the opportunity to be promoted to a high-ranking one.

"Especially, his teacher is the senior in the prison. He probably saw some opportunity."

When Ouyang Rong heard this, he suddenly calmed down and sighed softly: "It's okay, it's all the same."

"Everything is the same?"

Ouyang Rong didn't answer, he raised the soup bowl and drank it all in one gulp, his ears filled with the "summer chirping of cicadas".

"The female historian is also unfair?" he said suddenly.

Rong Zhen was silent.

…

Xingzifang, next to the bustling Buddha statue construction site, is in a temporary conference hall.

Wang Lengran was drinking tea and slowly adjusting the cuffs of his crimson official uniform.

Outside the door, a figure of a fat young man rushed into the hall without stopping.

"Sir Wang, who asked you to hand over the memorial that found out the relationship between Wang Yu and the former state scholar Ziyue Ziang? Are those letters true or false? It's too childish and obvious to use a gun and a stick like this."

Lin Cheng, who was extremely busy at the construction site, took the time to come over, and when he met Wang Lengran, he questioned Wang Lengran.

It turned out that after Lin Cheng handed in the confession, Wang Lengran immediately followed up with the memorial - criticizing Ouyang Lianghan based on the fact that Wang Yuzeng had friendship with Wang Junzhi and Yue Ziang from Jiangzhou Prefecture School - he had no intention of criticizing Ouyang Lianghan.

Unaware.

There were only two people in the conference hall, and there was no sign of Mr. Wei San.

Wang Lengran looked strange and asked: "We found out the clues and doubts, why didn't we report it to the court?"

"Why didn't I know beforehand? No one told me?" Lin Cheng sounded suspicious.

"I am the governor of Jiangzhou, and I must be responsible to the superiors. Of course, I should report to the court as soon as possible. This is my duty to fulfill my responsibilities.

"As for the matter beforehand... I was really busy and forgot about it, but Mr. Lin will certainly not disagree. It's not too late to know now."

"This is different..."

"What's different?"

Wang Lengran squinted at Lin Cheng, who blurted out subconsciously, and asked.

Lin Cheng stopped talking and swallowed it silently.

After a while he lowered his voice and asked:

"This matter about the Wang family's mother and son...is it the third young master?"

Wang Lengran replied expressionlessly:

"How do I know? Mr. Lin can ask directly."

"Okay, where is the third young master now?"

"Princess Anhui went out to give porridge in the afternoon. The third young master was worried and stayed by her side to look after her."

"Are you worried? What are you worried about? Someone dares to hurt the princess?" Lin Cheng was immediately puzzled.

Wang Lengran thought of the Third Young Master who stayed at the porridge shed with a look on his face to guard against thieves after explaining something to him not long ago. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly and he glanced at the top of Lin Cheng's head.

Aren't the Third Young Masters worried about you? They are patrolling intensively at 12 o'clock to prevent thieves.

The boy from Prince Xunyang's Mansion hangs around Princess Anhui every day when he sees the opportunity, just like a strong young farmer carrying a hoe to dig in your corner. He has the energy of a calf and is not tired from digging all day long.

But speaking of it, Lin Cheng was focused on the Xingzifang statue and had no contact with Princess Anhui. Wang Lengran only felt that he was really ignorant. If he were his son, he would not be able to give a few words to him, such as... the Big Buddha.

That's about right. From now on, it's more cost-effective to invest your energy on Princess Anhui's side than on the Big Buddha's side.

I glanced at the slightly fat young man who seemed to be mainly engaged in the Buddha business.

Wang Lengran's expression did not change:

"It's nothing. Some minor matters can be handled easily by Third Young Master. Young Master Lin, please concentrate on your business."

"Okay, I will go see the Third Young Master to discuss business."

Wang Lengran immediately changed his mind:

"The Third Young Master knew that you might be distracted and came to see him, so he specially asked me to come and tell you not to go. He is busy. And the Third Young Master has been in a bad mood recently."

"Bad mood?"

Wang Lengran sighed:

"The Qin family's matter is now completely over. Miss Qin has officially rejected the third young master... Mr. Lin had better not go over and get into trouble. Recently, the third young master wants to skin Ouyang Lianghan."

The old governor revealed in a low voice.

Lin Chengqi asked: "Take off Ouyang Lianghan's skin? Could it be that he poached the corner?"

Wang Lengran didn't answer.

Lin Cheng pursed his lips and returned to the original question:

"In the future, if there are any matters similar to the Wang family, please Third Young Master, Mr. Wang must discuss it with me."

Unexpectedly, Wang Lengran suddenly spoke:

"If Master Lin has something to do, can you also discuss it with Third Master and me?"

"I don't want to discuss anything with you?"

Wang Lengran's voice was calm and he asked something:

"If you guessed it right, this time by promoting the statue of Xingzifang to help suppress Ouyang Lianghan and the Xunyang Palace, Mr. Lin is not just doing it to give a gift to the Wei family, right?

"Young Master Lin, please stop hiding some things. Third Young Master has been waiting for a long time and has never taken the initiative to tell you. Some of them are too hurtful.

"Now that we have joined in, everyone should stop hiding their little thoughts from each other. We are all members of our own family. So what if we tell you, will the Wei family still harm you?"

Lin Cheng fell silent for a moment, then replied after a moment: "What do you mean, Mr. Wang? What are you talking about?"

Wang Lengran took a sip of tea and said:

"Let's not mention this selfishness. Just say that today, Mr. Lin is dissatisfied with this memorial and reacted so loudly. Doesn't it mean that he doesn't want to have a serious dispute with Prince Xunyang and Ouyang Lianghan and form a deadly feud?

?

"The Third Young Master said that he actually understood and sympathized with Young Master Lin's thoughts. From the beginning to the end, Young Master Lin always put catering to His Majesty as the first priority, and the Wei family came second, even though he was about to marry the Wei family's daughter.

"So, Mr. Lin wants to stop dealing with Ouyang Lianghan. He feels that His Majesty may return to Prince Xunyang's palace in the future. He wants to stay on top of things. He is afraid of offending Ouyang Lianghan too harshly. At the same time, he is also wary of his son-in-law, Prince Xunyang.

What is the identity of the insider strategist?

"That's why Mr. Lin is so dissatisfied with the memorial suddenly handed over by me in this case of Wang Yu...

"I'm afraid that Prince Xunyang and Ouyang Lianghan will also hold grudges against you, and that they will block a way out in the future, so I'm a little uneasy and feel that we have tricked you. Mr. Lin, is that right?"

A series of showdown questions made Lin Cheng slowly look sideways and observe Wang Lengran's face.

The latter also looked at him coldly and did not dodge.

The air is a little quiet.

I don't know how long it took, but Lin Cheng was the first to look away, "No, I don't dare."

Wang Lengran breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said:

"Master Lin, please don't forget that it is such an honor to be favored by His Highness the King of Wei and the King of Liang at the same time, and to be the son-in-law of the Wei family. It is not inferior to Ouyang Lianghan.

"Besides, if you think about it carefully, to please His Majesty is to get promoted and make a fortune, but if the Buddha is not built well, His Majesty will not throw you out as a scapegoat with no foundation to appease the public's anger.

"On the contrary, if you follow the Wei family wholeheartedly, if you do well, you will be promoted and make money as before, and even if you don't do well in making statues, at least you can survive."

Wang Lengran said it sincerely, with a sincere look on his face:

"Isn't it very clear how to choose? Master Lin should cherish this opportunity and stop being half-hearted. The two princes hate fools, but they don't like people who are too smart.

"I would like to express my heartfelt words to you, Mr. Lin."

After a long time, Lin Cheng lowered his eyelids, unsure of his mood or anger.

"I...of course I understand."
