Chapter 324: Impostoring
Chu Lingxuan was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table and scolded, "It's so hateful, they have lost their conscience, and they dare to take this kind of military feat!" That assassination of Prince Wan was very famous, and I also know it, laying the foundation for our army to achieve the final victory. It is said that fifty dead soldiers went, and only three came back alive, and even the emperor issued a decree to commend them...... This matter must be thoroughly investigated and given an explanation to my uncle. ”
Wang Cheng hurriedly said, "So many years have passed since that incident, it must be difficult to investigate." Lord Chu must not offend someone who should not be offended for the sake of the villain, General Zhao said that the person's backstage is very hard, and we can't afford to provoke it. I've done that, so be it. ”
Chu Lingxuan comforted, "It's okay, my third uncle was also at the border at that time, ask him to help investigate, and he will definitely be able to find out." ”
Chen Afu didn't care about whether she risked leading the army or not, she kept wiping her tears, for Wang Cheng, who had many disasters and difficulties for half a life. She looked at Wang Cheng's left hand, half of the palm from the index finger was gone, only the small half of the palm and thumb, and a small index finger remained, as if the waist was a little not straight, and she was so distressed.
Wang Cheng smiled and comforted Chen Afu, "Afu is sad, compared with those dead brothers, my uncle is already very satisfied." Although he was crippled, he was still working in the army, and he married a daughter-in-law and had children. Now that I have found you and my sister again, God has treated me well. After speaking, he also wiped away tears.
Chen Afu asked again, "I heard that my aunt's health is not good, what's the matter?"
Wang Cheng sighed, "It's also useless for me." When she got married, she had to give her mother's dowry, and she had to buy land to repair the house, which caused a lot of famine. The younger brother and his mother were busy doing embroidery work day and night, and they didn't sit well during the confinement period, so they fell ill. My eyes are not good, so I can't do embroidery for a long time. I still have back pain, I can't walk far, and when it's serious, I have to hold on to the wall......"
Wang Cheng's army is one tael of silver a month, and he should be able to live well by marrying a daughter-in-law in the countryside. Before getting married, he saved more than 20 taels of silver, and originally wanted to save some more and take it back to Xiaoli Village to his adoptive father's family, so that they could tell him about his life experience. But when he met the Wu family, the Wu family was beautiful and diligent, and he liked it very much, so he thought about continuing to save money after getting married, and then returning to Xiaoli Village after saving enough money.
To get married, you have to give 30 taels to Wu's mother's family, 10 taels to buy land and repair a house, and spend money to get married, so he borrowed 30 taels of silver from a few robe brothers and made the marriage a match.
Wu wanted to repay his mother's money, and he was very reluctant not to use up the money that his husband wanted to inquire about his life experience, so he worked hard to do embroidery. In the first few years, he did earn a lot of silver, and Wang Chengpao's brother's money was repaid, and Wu's mother's family also repaid fifty taels. But later, as the health became worse and worse, the embroidery work became slower and slower, and generally only dared to make small pieces, and the silver was earned less and less......
Chen Afu asked, "How much is my uncle's family?"
Wang Chengdao, "The capital has been repaid, and most of the interest money of more than 20 taels has been repaid, and there is still a difference of nine taels of silver." ”
Chen Afu said, "Uncle, don't let your aunt do embroidery anymore, I'll pay back the money for you." My aunt's mother's family was really ruthless, and it was not enough to squeeze so much money from my uncle, and she had to charge interest, forcing her daughter to drag her sick body to repay her debts. ”
Wang Cheng blushed and said, "Hey, it's all uncle's uselessness." ”
Chu Lingxuan said disapprovingly, "How can my uncle be useless? Uncle is a hero of my Great Shun Dynasty." After checking the matter clearly, the uncle who should be returned will be returned. ”
The meal has been served, and the three of them sit at a table to eat.
After the meal, Chu Lingxuan went out. He first had to tell the old man that he would go back to the countryside another day, and at the same time he would go out to discuss countermeasures with the Marquis of Chu and the third master. On the surface, the old marquis of Chu is the head of the Chu family, and in private, the marquis of Chu is the real head of the Chu family, and the old man and the third master will listen to him in the court.
Chen Afu and Wang Cheng were talking in the room. Today, Wang Cheng will stay at Chu's house for a night, and Chen Afu will follow him to Wang's house in Jiuli Village early tomorrow morning. Prepare again, and in two days, the Wang family will follow Chen Afu back to their hometown to reunite with the Wang family.
In the middle of the night, Chen Afu was sleeping in a daze, and when he heard the sound of Suosuo, Chu Lingxuan lay down on the bed.
Chu Lingxuan kissed her and said, "Ah Fu, your name is good, you are my lucky star." ”
He drank wine, and it smelled good.
These words sobered Chen Afu up, opened his eyes and asked, "What do you mean, what blessing did I bring you again?"
Chu Lingxuan laughed in a low voice, "You brought your uncle to the Chu family - it's really hard to find a place to step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it......"
As he spoke, he lowered his head and kissed her.
Chen Afu was so anxious that he blocked his mouth and said, "You are so anxious, what the hell is going on, say," and threatened, "If you don't say it, you won't give it to you." ”
Chu Lingxuan laughed, lay down and said, "I heard from the third uncle, three people came back from the assassination, and the other two are fine, and the problem must be Yang Qing." The third uncle first wondered how Yang Qing could personally participate in such a dangerous task as assassinating Prince Wan, and he successfully ran back after the assassination. At that time, the third uncle secretly inquired, and Yang Qing was indeed involved and was seriously injured. My third uncle still thinks that he underestimated him, but it turns out that he is also a man. ”
"Who is Yang Qing?" asked Chen Afu.
"Yang Qing is a sharp knife of Uncle Wang's family. Because of his meritorious work in assassinating the prince of Wan, and with the help of the Wang family, his career was very smooth, and he climbed to the position of the general soldier of Shaanxi step by step, and the Wang family also married his own daughter to him...... In war, it is inevitable that there will be people who take the lead in the army, but most of them are the military merits of those who have died, but he steps on the shoulders of the living and climbs up, which is really hateful. If this matter is suppressed, it will be suppressed, and if it is revealed, it is a great crime to deceive the king...... If Yang Qing can be pulled down, the two princes and the party will lose one general. ”
Hearing that the power of the impostor was so strong, Chen Afu couldn't help but worry. He said, "Their power is monstrous, and after so many years, can they find out? Those people have all committed perjury, and it has been verified that they have also committed serious crimes, can they tell the truth? Besides, will Yang Qing kill people and kill people?"
Chu Lingxuan said, "It's definitely not easy to check, but as long as you do it, there will be flaws." Keeping his uncle behind may be a move by General Zhao to protect himself. General Zhao is a smart man, and there should be other evidence. The third uncle has been operating in the west for 20 years, and if he investigates slowly, there will be results. ”
After speaking, he went to kiss Chen Afu again.
Chen Afu listened to these words, and his mood was a little better. But Chu Lingxuan's wine smell was too great, she turned her face sideways and said angrily, "Oh, how much wine have you drunk?"
Chu Lingxuan said with a smile, "Happy today, Dad, Third Uncle, and I, we all drank a few more cups." ”
Chen Afu pushed away his face again, and said half-truthfully, "Your wine tastes so big, don't kiss it." ”
Chu Lingxuan buried his head in her neck socket with a smile, and said with a smile, "Okay, just don't kiss/mouth." ”
