Chapter 5 Ghostwriters

On the school ground, Wangqiu was pouring chicken soup into the soldiers, saying a lot of empty words, such as why I treat the soldiers as brothers, and when I win the battle, I will build a single room for each brother to live in a luxurious accommodation. However, the envoy said that, and the soldiers heard it, and no one took it seriously.

At this time, one of the staff members stepped forward and whispered, "My lord, those snake clans have rejected our request. ”

Wangqiu snorted coldly and said, "Don't worry about them, the fighter plane is fleeting, and I'll come back to clean them up after fighting Yingchuan." ”

"Campaign!" Wangqiu shouted, leading his soldiers to the north.

At this moment, an old woman with the corpse of her daughter blocked the army's march and cried.

"Dare to disrupt the people!" scolded the guard.

However, Wangqiu has always liked to maintain his image of a gentleman cherishing talents and loving the people, so he will let the madman talk nonsense every day, seeing the old woman kneeling in front of him, Wangqiu said solemnly: "What's the matter with the old man?"

The old woman wept and cried, "My lord, four soldiers rushed into the house of the people and asked for water to drink, and the women promised, but they did not expect to see the lust, and my little daughter was humiliated and maimed for her, and I begged the adults to be the masters of the people's women." ”

"Is there such a thing?" Wangqiu said angrily, but his heart was very entangled, now that he was about to go on the march, if he punished these soldiers, it would inevitably affect his morale, but if he didn't punish him, wouldn't the image of a gentleman he had built up with great difficulty be in vain.

"Then can you see who did it?" In the end, Wangqiu still thinks that his image as a gentleman is more important.

When the old woman heard this, she touched her tears, and pointed to the four soldiers who were near her, and said, "My lord, these are the four of them." ”

When the four soldiers heard this, they were so frightened that they immediately knelt down at Wangqiu's feet and shouted injustice: "General, wronged, the little one stayed in the barracks last night and never went out." ”

The officer on the side also stood up and said, "My lord, these four people really didn't leave the barracks last night. ”

At this time, Wangqiu actually understood in his heart that this old woman was probably sent by those rich businessmen who were against him to disgust him, but he had no evidence.

"This matter needs to be carefully investigated, but the death of your daughter cannot be in vain, first give some money for burial, and you will go back first. Wangqiu took some money and sent the old woman away first, after all, he still had to go to Yingchuan, and he didn't have time to deal with this matter.

In the distance, a few wealthy businessmen hiding in the shadows saw this situation and scolded softly: "This idiot, if he left for some money, can't he make more trouble?"

------------

I heard that the usurper of Yingchuan was sent to attack Yingchuan, and the people of Runan were very gossipy, and there were storytellers in the teahouse who told about the achievements of the Jinglu envoy when he conquered the Liukou before.

Xingkong, who was drinking tea in the teahouse, smiled and asked, "Then tell me, what will be the result of this Jingluo envoy's attack on Yingchuan?"

The storyteller shook the blackened fan and pretended to say: "Yingchuan Jingluo made Chu Lian a usurper, his name is not right, his killing of his biological father is unfilial, betrayal of the court, is disloyalty, and I, Lord Wangqiu, Lord of Runan, am a decent family, a frank gentleman, an officer and an officer, and he is canonized by the imperial court, and he is familiar with victory and defeat, isn't it clear at a glance?"

Starry Sky shook his head and said, "It's this cliché again, I'm tired of hearing it." ”

The businessman who came out to drink tea with the starry sky on the side said: "I'm tired of hearing this kind of cliché, that son has ever heard that there is a famous man in Runan, surnamed Jiu, named Ye, this person writes a good article, and the writing is brilliant."

The next day, Starry Sky brought some gifts and found the celebrity Jiuye.

"How about accompanying me on a hunting trip?" said Kuba with a smile.

"Ah, don't you write an article, there are hundreds of Runan women outside your house waiting for you to go out to pay respects, and there are still many people waiting for you to update the article you wrote on Runan current affairs?"

However, Jiuye smiled and didn't speak, and went hunting in the mountains with the starry sky, and was surrounded by all kinds of women when he went out, but fortunately, a family member stopped the women.

After several days of back and forth, the starry sky finally understood that those articles were not written by Jiu Ye, but were written by the rich businessmen who paid for countless writers, and Jiu Ye was only pushed out by the rich businessmen as a signboard because of his rather feminine appearance, and the articles written by the writers were hung with the name of Jiu Ye, so that the image of a famous man who was both feminine and quite literary was shaped, which attracted countless people in Runan, and the rich businessmen also took the opportunity to use the fame of Jiu Ye to write some rhythmic current affairs articles to mislead the people, and they would also be performed by the troupe hired by the rich businessmen。

"Fellow, where are you going?" asked Starry Sky to the old man who was hurrying beside him.

"I heard that an article written by Jiu Mingshi was taken by the troupe, and if it is going to be performed, we all want to see it. The old man replied briskly.

Xingkong was curious and came to the stage, and Xiao Meng'er was really bored, so she pulled Qianye to watch the play, and Dai Yan'er, who stayed at home alone, had already been familiar with the big guys, so she came over.

When I arrived at the stage, I saw a young woman beating gongs and drums, and shouted loudly: "Fellow villagers, fellow villagers, we hope that the Xia Opera Troupe will be valued by Mr. Jiuye and awarded the opportunity to perform an article under his name, and today's play is free!"

Hearing the word free, although the villagers had already known the news and came, when it was really confirmed, there were still cheers.

"The master is called Wangqiu, but this troupe is called Panxia, which is clear that he can't get along with the adult. Qian on the side saw it more thoroughly.

It didn't take long for the drama to begin, and I saw a young man and woman who fell in love with each other and made a private commitment for life, but not long after, a despicable official who usually pretended to be a gentleman fell in love with the girl, so he put the boy in prison on trumped-up charges, and the girl wanted to save the boy, but was defiled by the officials.

Seeing this, the villagers all shed tears, and some people cursed loudly for the actor who played the official, scolding him for being so bad, why didn't he go to hell. Dai Yan'er on the side also entered the play, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes: "It's so pitiful, that official is too bad." ”

"Then why didn't they kill the officials?" Xiao Meng'er was puzzled.

Qian on the other side had already known the true face of Jiu Ye, and when she saw this situation, she sneered: "Let's look at it." ”

Not long after, the drama was heavy, and a rich businessman appeared, and the rich businessman used all his family property to bribe the official, hoping that he would let go of the poor pair of men and women just now, but unexpectedly, the official accepted the money but did not let go of the young man and woman who loved each other, but framed the rich businessman with a sense of justice for colluding with the traitor, and arrested the rich businessman and executed him, followed by the snowfall in June, and the troupe closed the curtain.

Seeing that the villagers were crying even more miserably, some of the rich businessmen had already arranged to take the opportunity to say: "That official just now is too hateful, the rich merchant just wants to save people, but he wants to kill the rich merchant." ”

However, in the backstage of the troupe, the head of the troupe respectfully said to several wealthy businessmen sitting in the backstage: "Ladies and gentlemen, how is the effect of this play? ”

One of the obese wealthy businessmen smiled: "Yes, yes, the more this kind of drama in the future, the better, as long as it is an official, it must be negative, as long as it is a rich businessman, it must be positive, and then interspersed with some miserable love stories to move those ignorant mud legs." ”

After the play, Xingkong couldn't help but complain: "This is not written by Jiuye, it is really speechless." ”

However, Dai Yan'er still said fiercely with tears in her eyes: "I must let my uncle investigate Runan thoroughly, and we must not have the kind of hateful officials in the drama in Runan." ”

Hearing this, Xingkong complained again: "You still can't see that the drama just now is actually referring to Sang scolding Huai? ”

"Ah, this is not my uncle. Dai Yan'er was puzzled.

"It doesn't matter whether your uncle is that kind of person or not, what matters is whether the people think that your uncle is that kind of person, at least judging from the dramatic effect just now, the people think so. Qian reminded.

"It's just a drama, and it's so complicated. Xiao Meng'er touched her head and felt that her little head was not enough, this kind of adult world was not something she could understand.

"Damn, these people in the troupe dare to slander my uncle, and when my uncle comes back, they will definitely look good, hum!" Dai Yan'er snorted coldly.
