Lord of the House

Vol 3 Chapter 76: black and white

Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan hid in the restaurant, thinking that they would be able to see more clearly when they were on the second floor, so they went upstairs with Zhao Shuhan, and before they passed the corner of the stairs, they heard a slightly familiar man from upstairs. Voice: "This Dongcheng Colonel Chen Zhi doesn't have the ambition of a warrior, and the patrol soldiers are like mice staring at cats, they are really a bunch of rubbish..."

Zhang Yubo wondered who this person upstairs was, and his voice sounded familiar? Slow down with Zhao Shuhan, thinking about eavesdropping on what other people are saying about today's events.

"This person is just a small gesture, Jinchuan Prison is a nine-rank prisoner, and he cuts off people's hands and feet on the street. At this moment, he dares to issue a killing order against Dongchengwei's troops. It is too arrogant, and he is not afraid of offending people? "At this time, another clear and delicate female voice came down.

"He is not arrogant and domineering. How many people in Jiangning City know Dongyang Juzi and Jinchuan Prisoner? I have been a shrinking tortoise for most of my life. If it weren't for the burden of MG, I would like to live arrogant and domineering." The old voice came again.

When Zhang Yubo heard this, he looked at Zhao Shuhan and smiled.

The female voice really laughed: "How can you compare yourself to a turtle with a shrinking head? A few days ago, I was so angry that I blew my beard and stared, and I wanted to screw this turtle son's head off. Seriously, in the eyes of you people, human life is not worth a few cents, and I don't think this farce will end easily. Those people who have broken their hands and feet are not all the landslides in the East City..."

Zhang Yubo also guessed that there was someone behind the scenes of today's incident. He thought that the person upstairs should see it more clearly. He and Zhao Shuhan went up the stairs to the second floor, an old man in brocade clothes with a white chubby and a slightly frosty beard under his chin. He was sitting at the table near the window at the entrance of the stairs, looking at the street outside the window and discussing the downstairs with Chen Qingqing, a famous prostitute in Xiubai Building, who was sitting opposite him at the same table. Seeing that he was an acquaintance, Zhang Yubo went over to salute Zhao Shuhan: "I didn't know the grandfather of the country was here, but Zhang Yubo (Zhao Shuhan, head of the Jiangning Penalty Department) was here to be polite..."

Zhang Yubo, Chen/Yuanliang and other Dongyang officials took it for granted that they belonged to Gu Wuchen. Chen Qingqing had never met Zhao Shuhan, but after hearing his name and knowing that he was on good terms with Lin Fu, Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan came upstairs. He was slightly startled, thinking that he didn't say anything good just now, which made him a little embarrassed.

The old man in Jinyi sat there with a slight smile, and said, "Master Zhang and Director Zhao also have leisure time to come to Dongshi for a drink at this time, so you might as well sit down together."

"It's better to be respectful than to obey..." Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan were also inconvenient to refuse, and they didn't expect to meet the hereditary Mu Guogong Zeng Mingxin in the restaurant.

Although there are countless high-ranking officials in Jiangning City, there are only three hereditary nobles who are not downgraded. This generation of Mu Guo's grandfather is arrogant by nature, but he does not do business. , Zeng Ming was suave and suave when he was young, quite talented and famous, and he was also arrogant and self-willed in life. After middle age, it can be said that his reputation has become quiet. Mu Guogong has once again become a talking point after dinner in the well of Jiangning city.

I didn't expect that Mu Guo's Guild would invite Chen Qingqing to come to Dongshi to drink for fun. Besides, after listening to Mu Guo's talk just now, it seems that they have no ill will towards Lin Fu, but they will not take Chen Qingqing's words seriously. The attendant brought the chairs, and Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan sat down at the table, still thinking about the situation outside the window, and looked around. The row of knights in front of the inspector and the charioteer pointed their spears at the present, forcing Dongchengwei's men and horses to retreat from the street to make way for the road. , To stand up for Yan Yu, even those who have broken legs should stand up with each other's arms, and if there is a slight hesitation, they will call Ji Qi with a stick. The carriage that was protected in the middle also moved slowly. Zhou Pu sat in front of the carriage and led the horse, with Lin Bing at the front of the carriage.

At this time, there were people in front of the eaves downstairs porch talking loudly about the gang of gangsters who molested Lin Fu's family to the gangsters. Zhang Yubo and Zhao Shuhan could hear them clearly upstairs. They had all seen Liu Yueer, Qian Although Yunniang, the wife of Xiaowu, is beautiful, she is not a big beauty, but she does not know who is the other beautiful girl with Liu Yueer?

Zhang Yubo suddenly thought of one person, kicked Zhao Shuhan lightly under the table, glanced at the carriage, Zhao Shuhan understood it, and thought that if this group of scoundrels were instructed to target Gu Wuchen's family, if this matter was easily settled, then Gu Wuchen would really be a piece of dough It's easy to be bullied by others; Lin Bedang's cruel hand in the street is probably due to the accumulation of grievances after the massacre of the refugees.

"I just bought Director Zhao's "Prison Book" from Zhengyetang the other day, and I wanted to have the opportunity to ask for advice in person, but I didn't expect to meet here..." said Mu Guogong Zeng Mingxin.

"The Book of Raising Prison" has been engraved and delivered by Zhengyetang. Lin Fu and Zhao Shuhan put 20 copies of the book for sale at Zhengyetang Bookstore. Zhao Shuhan did not expect Muguo Guild to buy it. Said: "The grandfather of the country has lifted it up, and the meager remarks are embarrassing for the grandfather of the country..."

"Well, Director Zhao is really humble, this old man has lived most of his life, do you need to praise people?" Zeng Mingxin laughed, letting Zhao Shuhan sit and talk, don't be too restrained, "I heard that Director Zhao will choose a day to gather at the mouth of Jinchuan River. Yunzhutang opened the scriptures and preached the prison book, the time has been set, can it be convenient to tell the old man?"

"Dangdang, dangdang." Zhao Shuhan only listened to the guy there when he was buying books in the main hall. The so-called Jiyun Bamboo Hall was still under construction. Zhao Shuhan didn't know when it would be completed, but he just perfunctory. on.

Zhao Shuhan and Zhang Yubo were thinking about how today's events would end, and naturally they were not in the mood to discuss the prison book with Mu Guogong in the restaurant. Lin Fu and the envoy's chariots were about to leave the street corner. Although Dongchengwei's soldiers and horses did not dare to block them, they refused to stop and dragged away. Zhao Shuhan and Zhang Yubo announced to Mu Guo. quit.

After going downstairs, Zhang Yubo felt that he was still wearing an official robe, which was a bit inappropriate, so he said to Zhao Shuhan: "We still find a restaurant to drink and wait for the news. Everyone is escorted to the inspector, and we can be afraid of what storms they will cause. Come?"

Zhao Shuhan thinks so too.

************

In the end, Lin Fu requisitioned four carts of cattle on the street and escorted 17 people who had broken hands and feet to the police officer as if they were transporting **** to the local ruffian who had broken their hands and feet.

Mrs. Gu, Gu Siyuan, Yang Shi and others received news that they were already waiting in the other courtyard of the Commissioner. Lin Fu sent Gu Junxun to the other courtyard to be taken care of by Mrs. Gu and others. Send Liu Yue'er back to Jiyunju to avoid Madam Gu's unhappiness from her meeting with the Gu family.

Although the great prison in the city was nearby, there was still a prison cell in the office of the inspector. Although it was not big, it was enough to detain a hundred or ten people. Yang Pu led the people to imprison these gangsters in the city, and Lin Fu went first. See Gu Wuchen.

Gu Wuchen was already waiting under the eaves of the porch, and Ma Chao, who came back to report the matter first, stood behind Gu Wuchen, and the other messengers in the yard today were dispatched.

"Is there nothing wrong with Mother Xun?" Gu Wuchen asked. It was inconvenient for him to go directly to see his daughter in another courtyard, because he was afraid that if it fell into the eyes of someone with a heart, it would make up some rumors.

"It's not a big deal, just a little frightened. Madam picked up the lady and went back..." Lin Fu asked again, "How about Mr. Jia and others?" When he just passed the side hall where the inspector Jia Pengyu was in charge of official business, he couldn't see it there. Some people saw Jia Pengyu in the yamen at noon.

"I just went to Shangyuan County, and I will go to Pingjiang Mansion to inspect again. I left in a hurry." Gu Wuchen said.

Leaving Jiangning to inspect the following prefectures and counties, he would not be able to come back for ten days and a half months. Lin Fu thought that Jia Pengyu should know something to avoid getting involved, so he simply left Jiangning and handed over the entire commission to Gu Wuchen. He really wanted to Be a tumbler in officialdom.

"What to do now," Lin Fu asked, "I'm afraid there will be someone from Jiangning Mansion?" The fact that Zhi is a soft egg does not mean that Jiangning Governor Wang Xueshan will swallow his anger when he finds out about it.

"It's important to get the transcript first, Ma Chao, you go over in person..." Gu Wuchen said in a suppressed voice.

"Lin Fu, Lin Fu, where are you, the villain who is telling lies? Come out to me!" At this moment, Gu Siyuan was heard shouting loudly in the passage outside the yard. Lin Fu didn't know what medicine Gu Siyuan took wrong, and went to the moon gate in surprise. Looking over there, I saw Gu Siyuan rushing in angrily, roaring at himself, "You little man, you have a grudge with Wang Shaojun, but you blamed Wang Shaojun for today's incident, and you have to use a knife to kill and drag my Gu family. In your personal grievances, what are your intentions?"

"What is the conflict between me and Wang Xueshan's son?" Lin Fuyin looked at Gu Siyuan who rushed in and lost his temper.

"Don't you just fancy that little **** in Baiyuan and want to redeem her? Fan Zhimei has already sold the little **** to Wang Shaojun as a concubine. What qualifications do you have to compete with Wang Shaojun for beauty? Jun Xun has been bullied by others. It's not fortunate that Wang Shaojun and my Gu family have no grudges and no grudges. Last night, they invited me to meet in the vassal building. Why do you want to harm Jun Xun? It's not your villain who wants to use this to trap my Gu family and Wang's family as enemies..." Gu Siyuan said angrily. .

"Crack!" Before Gu Siyuan finished speaking, Gu Wuchen slapped him in the face with a slap, and shouted in a deep voice, "You want to shout so that everyone in the yamen knows?"

Gu Siyuan never thought that his father would give him a slap indiscriminately, covering his face and arguing: "It's obviously a villain like Lin Fu who is telling the truth. I know that Wang Shaojun is a human being, and it will definitely not be bad for Jun Xun..."

Gu Wuchen can't wait to kick his son to death, how stupid does Lin Fu have to be to lie about this? Besides, Yang Pu and Ma Chao are not blind, and Dongchengwei's men followed him until Siqian Street, the inspector, before leaving. Why are they only for these gangsters in the market? Gu Wuchen let out a sigh of relief, thinking to himself: No matter how bad he is, he will be his son after all, and he also complained that he had not taught him well in the ten years of the army, and said to Ma Chao, "Take this beast to the prison to gain some insight, don't you think? Don't wait for others to entrap the Gu family, and he wants to have a good time with others."

The Hekou refugee massacre was suspected of targeting Gu Wuchen, but in the end it was an irrelevant refugee who died. Gu Wuchen could still compromise with Jiangning Mansion. Today's matter is directly aimed at his family, so how could he easily stop?

Lin Fu stood there without saying a word. He didn't know how Gu Siyuan and Wang Chao came to know about his close relationship with Xiaoman. Maybe he met Wang Chao, Yuan Jinsheng and others when they visited Baiyuan before the festival to show them. What happened? Maybe Su Mei had already told the Fan family about Xiaoman's redemption, but Wang Chao would take the lead in buying Xiaoman as his concubine.
