Chapter 108: Ancestral Things
"Li Zhaoxian, who is that?" Su Mo looked confused. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info For a person who doesn't even have a general understanding of the real Ming history, it is very good to know Li Dongyang at most. As for knowing or even understanding Li Dongyang's son, that requirement is too harsh.
Zhang Yue couldn't help but be stunned, frowned and muttered, "You don't know him......?"
Su Mo was keenly aware of something, and his eyes became a little sharp, "What, why, who is this Li Zhaoxian?"
Zhang Yue smiled bitterly: "Li Zhaoxian, the word Zhenbo." The eldest son of the crown prince Shaobao and Wenyuan Pavilion scholar Li Xiya. Does my brother really not know him?"
Li Dongyang's son, Su Mo's heart shook slightly, and his pupils shrank. On his face, he asked calmly: "Li Ge's son, how can I know such a big person." I'm afraid that if I want to know people, they may not want to know me. Okay, let's talk about it, what the hell is going on. β
Zhang Yue's brows furrowed even tighter, half confused and half distressed, and said, "Only after knowing about my brother's matter, my younger brother used his own way to inquire. As a result, I happened to hear a rumor that Li Zhaoxian had a certain drink and had a lot of complaints about you. Well, or rather, contempt and hatred. Originally, I thought that my brother knew him, and he had some holiday unintentionally, so maybe from this clue, I found the root cause of this incident. But now my brother actually said that he didn't know at all, which ...... This ......"
He shook his head and sighed with a wry smile, but Su Mo's heart was like a huge wave. Finally, there are some clues. Zhang Yue didn't understand the cause and effect, so he naturally felt completely clueless. But Su Mo knew that there was another key figure in this. That is the remnant of the Tian family, Tian Yu.
From the last analysis, we know that Tian Yu must have fled to Beijing. Originally, there were rumors in Wuqing earlier that Tian Yu, the son of the Tian family, had a relationship with a big man in Beijing, and it was precisely for this reason that he was able to enter the Guozijian to study. Now it seems that this big man is not this Li Dongyang's son Li Zhaoxian?
Just thinking of this, Su Mo couldn't help frowning slightly. Even if Tian Yu really caught Li Zhaoxian's line, as Li Dongyang's son, could he be so naΓ―ve and not even have this bit of political wisdom?
Even if Li Zhaoxian is a gentleman who doesn't understand these things, then his father Li Dongyang will never make such a low-level mistake.
Not to mention, Tian Yu is just the son of a rich family in the county below, and his status is far from that of the son of the second assistant of the cabinet. If these two people come together, then it must be Li Zhaoxian, and Tian Yu is at most playing the role of a minion. In this kind of relationship, Li Zhaoxian will make a move for him?
Take another 10,000 steps back and say, even if everything makes sense, Li Zhaoxian really did it. With Li Zhaoxian's ability, can he prompt a supplementary official of the household department to be willing to sacrifice his life and exert his strength? The answer is obviously impossible.
Then, the only possibility is that someone with more weight will make a move. And this person, there is only one ......
Su Mo's mind was spinning fast, but he thought clearly in an instant. Li Dongyang! It could only be Li Dongyang who made a move.
And the reason why Li Dongyang made a move, probably as the British public guessed before, just used his own incident as a fuse, but the real point was the struggle between the monarchy and the ministers.
But he actually had a feud with his son's subordinates, and used himself as cannon fodder, which not only achieved his goal, but also helped his son settle a small matter, which is not too suitable.
I have to say that Su Mo, who has more experience in a lifetime, is indeed like a golden finger at this moment. The conclusion that was deduced in an instant is not far away, although it is not true.
It was indeed Li Dongyang's hand, but it was not for the political dispute that everyone guessed, but purely for fear that his son would act rashly and cause unnecessary trouble. And Li Zhaoxian didn't come out for Tian Yu, and even he probably didn't even know Tian Yu. His hatred of Su Mo is just the jealousy of young people. Although, it's just his unilateral speculation, as well as the push behind the well-intentioned people.
Things in the world are so unpredictable. When everyone thinks it is a simple thing, in fact, there is a great meaning in it, and when everyone thinks that there is a complex internal story, it is often a simple factor that is unimaginably simple.
Obviously, Su Mo's incident is the latter. And because of the complexity of the people involved, this trivial matter that is not worth mentioning has finally been completely pushed in the direction of monstrous waves.
Li Dongyang!
Su Mo's face was expressionless, but the hand holding the arm of the chair was clenched tightly. Although he doesn't know the real history of the Ming Dynasty, he still knows the sentence "Liu Gongju, Li Gongmou, Xie Gongyou Kankan".
Li Gongmou, this Li Dongyang can make the world call the word "conspiracy," how can his wisdom be underestimated? This does not matter his position. Being targeted by such an enemy, Su Mo felt a chill down his spine when he thought about it.
Strength! It's still not enough. He muttered secretly, and his heart was a little more firm about the original plan.
He lowered his head here to think, and Zhang Yue couldn't figure out the mystery inside for a while, and the two of them were silent. Until the candle flame burst into a light shower, the two of them woke up at the same time.
Zhang Yue shook his head and said with a smile: "Since my brother doesn't recognize that Li Zhaoxian, then presumably this matter has nothing to do with the Li family and his son." Thinking about it from another angle, it's not a good thing. At least, you don't have to face Li Xiya, right? Li Xiya, tsk. β
He slammed his mouth twice, and there was a look of relief and relaxation on his face. Obviously, he is also extremely jealous of this Li Gongmou.
Although Su Mo had a guess in his heart, it was not easy to point it out at this time. After all, if you take 10,000 steps back, everything is your own speculation, and there is no real evidence. What is the truth of the facts, even he can't see through it, so why bother to say it to increase the psychological burden on his friends.
So, looking at Zhang Yue's relieved look, he just smiled and nodded. The two of them no longer dwelled on this topic, and chatted casually.
After chatting for a few words, Zhang Yue suddenly slapped his forehead, reached out and took out something from his arms, and handed it to Su Mo and said, "I just cared about talking to my brother, and I almost forgot about business." This is what my uncle ordered my younger brother to bring to my brother when I came, saying that it was the ancestral thing of your Su family. β
Su Mo was startled, and hurriedly reached out to take it, but it was a small boxy package, which looked like a small box.
Zhang Yue avoided suspicion and got up to say goodbye. Su Mo waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down. After all, Zhang Yue is also a young man, how can he not be curious in his heart? It was only a tutor to leave, and now seeing that Su Mo decisively said that he was not outside, he also sat down again.
The small package was opened by the candle flame, and it was indeed a small wooden box. The wooden box is half-new, and there is nothing special about it. Su Mo didn't look at it anymore, and opened the box with a slight force in his hand. In front of the eye, there was a ring quietly placed in the box.
The two looked up at each other, and they both saw a little surprise in each other's eyes. Su Mo looked at the lamp and reached out to take out the ring.
I don't know what material the ring is made of, it seems to be a little warm to the touch, similar to jade, and it seems to be carved from some kind of wood. The whole body is swarthy, and there seems to be some kind of pattern engraved on the ring face.
Brought the ring closer to the light, stared closely, and then vaguely saw clearly. It was a tower-like pattern that looked like auspicious clouds, and there were two ancient characters faintly engraved on it. Gently stroke with your fingers, and the bump sensation is extremely strong. When I raised my hand and looked again, I saw some black marks on my fingers.
Su Mo's heart moved, and his face became thoughtful. Could it be that this is what my father said that day, what was hidden under the kang in his house?
Thinking of this, he looked up at Zhang Yue and said softly, "Brother Yue, have you ever seen this thing?" Oh, I mean, when my father visited my uncle for the first time, did he show this thing?"
Zhang Yue was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This little brother doesn't know, but it shouldn't be." Seeing that Su Mo was puzzled, he explained: "This thing has really never been seen by the younger brother." However, after Uncle Su saw his father that day, his father sighed for a long time at the tip of a knife that night. Come to think of it, that is the token given by Uncle Su. Therefore, the younger brother guessed that it was definitely not this ring. β
Su Mo nodded, feeling a little more curious about his grandfather he had never seen before.
A martial artist in the rivers and lakes, but he did not pass on any martial arts inheritance to his descendants, nor did he leave any wealth to his descendants, which is a bit strange. You must know that the four words "poor, rich and rich" are not said casually.
Warriors have to work hard to keep their muscles and bones, and I don't know how many dark wounds they will leave, which require a lot of medicinal materials and resources to be calmed, how can they be supported without some financial resources? You must know that your grandfather is not one of those mediocre and unknown people, it seems that he has made some fame. It can be seen that the initial investment will definitely not be less.
This kind of famous person, other things may be lacking, but there will always be some gold and silver wealth, how can Su Hong's father and son live so hard? This is one of them.
Second, no matter how famous a character in the rivers and lakes is, how can he have an intersection with a figure like the British Gong? and still leave such a friendship? There is also the Cheng family, who has never seen the baby, is also the home of the official eunuch.
Usually from the perspective of the imperial court, the reason why the characters in the rivers and lakes are called Jianghu people is probably a bit derogatory. In the eyes of the imperial court, the Jianghu people belong to the uncontrollable and bandits. The so-called chivalrous martial arts are forbidden, which is what it means.
Whether it is a British public or a Cheng family, they are all officials. This official and bandit can actually get together, if you want to say that there is nothing strange inside, you don't believe it when you kill Su Mo.
Not to mention this, there is such a strange ring now. Su Mo had taken a closer look just now, and this ring was clearly some kind of seal, which should have been used as a seal in the first place. Daddy is sending this to himself now, apparently thinking that he might be able to use it. That means that this thing is very likely to have a specific meaning, and may even implicate a certain force......
All kinds of signs show that his grandfather is very mysterious.
Su Mo thought silently, and played with the ring a few times before putting it on his middle finger. The size is just right.
was stretching out his hand and Zhang Yue to look at it, but suddenly heard a rush of footsteps outside, and then, there was an exclamation outside the door, and the door was suddenly slammed open.
