Chapter 322: Loving Father
Lang Zhong of the Jiang family went to see Brother Huan.
Scholar Xia sat in the room waiting for news, and two lamps were placed on the table to illuminate the surroundings very brightly, but Scholar Xia still had the illusion that someone seemed to be staring at him in a dark corner.
As soon as he moved, the man would emerge from the darkness and grab him by the throat.
Scholar Xia inexplicably fought a cold war.
When the knock came, Scholar Xia shook his whole body, and hurriedly gathered his thoughts, "What's the matter?" ”
The steward came in and said, "Lord Xia, Lang Zhong of the Jiang family saw it and said that it was ...... Epidemic disease...... Medicine is boiling in the big kitchen, let us take the medicine to get rid of the disease......" The man paused, "Now let me ask my lord if you want to stay in this courtyard again, if you want to live in this courtyard, you have to fill the courtyard with medicine, otherwise...... The plague ...... Spread soon. ”
After the Jiang family's Lang Zhong saw the prince, he hurriedly took another layer of cloth towels to cover his face, and wore two long robes, and he was very careful in what he said and did.
The outfit alone was enough to scare the hell out of them.
The people who diagnosed the disease have all become like this, so you can imagine how serious this epidemic is.
It was rare that the people in the courtyard did not flee in all directions, and the cook in the big kitchen was busy vacating the cauldron to cook medicine for the guys in the pharmacy.
Scholar Xia could barely speak, and sat down for a long time, could it be that this was providence.
Because King Duan was a rebellion, so the heavens sent disaster to them, and he envisioned the possible results of supporting King Duan, either success or failure, either becoming a vassal of the humerus for a while, or a complete defeat. But I never thought that it would be because of the epidemic......
When there was an epidemic in Jixian County, he also asked people to quietly instruct the Tai Hospital, so that they must be cautious. It is necessary to check carefully before reporting to the imperial court, in order to delay time.
He knew that the epidemic was changing rapidly, and as long as it was delayed for a few days, there would be different results, and the worse the epidemic, the more they would be able to fish in troubled waters, who knew that this retribution would be fulfilled on him and bring him such trouble.
He's been in business for so long. You can't just throw in the towel.
Scholar Xia instructed the steward, "Let people go to the medicine first," he said and straightened his sleeves. "I'll go and ask Yao Yiwen to transcribe the edict."
He doesn't have much contact with the prince, and eighty percent of them will not be infected with the epidemic, as long as Yao Yiwen writes out the edict, he can abandon the people in this courtyard and go directly to see King Duan.
Such a major event is bound to be damaged. That's no way around it.
Xia University thinks well. Out of the house.
……
The paper was broken and one piece after another.
Fingers are covered in ink.
Yao Yiwen never thought that writing a word would be so difficult.
The pen in his hand weighs like a thousand pounds, and the barrel is as sharp as a knife, which can cut through his flesh and skin.
He just wanted to throw that pen away.
As soon as Yao Yiwen thought of this, the door was suddenly opened.
Yao Yiwen subconsciously raised his eyes.
A man walked in from the outside, and as he got closer, his face became clearer and clearer.
Yao Yiwen's mouth grew in surprise, and the pen in his hand fell to the ground.
"Teacher...... You...... How did you...... Will it be here......" Yao Yiwen couldn't have imagined that the teacher would walk in with grace. The expression on his face was calm, obviously not coerced.
What's going on.
What the hell is going on.
Scholar Xia sat in a chair beside him. looked at Yao Yiwen, "I thought you could understand what I meant, but who knew that it hadn't grown at all over the years." ”
"I single-handedly lifted you up to be my right-hand man, and you have disappointed me again and again."
Yao Yi heard the words of Scholar Xia, and suddenly became in a trance, as if his mind had already been out of his body.
Everything is fake.
The teacher's heroic righteousness is fake, the father's high festival and breeze are fake, Zhang's tenderness and sweetness are fake, what else is fake?
His life was living in these falsehoods, and he didn't know it.
Scholar Xia said coldly: "Write the edict well, your father and son can be reunited, and in the future, King Duan will ascend to the throne, and I will also promote you to the cabinet and pass on my mantle." ”
If not, Brother Huan will die, the fifth brother will die, and he will die.
Yao Yi came back to his senses after a while, "Can you keep my son safe?" ”
Scholar Xia suppressed the sneer that rose in his heart, and now he didn't know that it was someone else's heir, what a fool, how could such a person have a good future.
"Nature."
"What about my daughter and son-in-law?" Yao Yiwen raised his head, "Duan Wang Ye succeeds to the throne, what will happen to my daughter and son-in-law?" ”
Scholar Xia sighed, "The positions are different, not to mention that Cui Yiting has always targeted King Duan, but for the sake of your great achievements, I can intercede in front of King Duan." ”
This is a prevarication of his words, he wrote this edict I don't know if I can keep Brother Huan's peace, but I named the Yao family a crime of rebellion.
Cui Yiting is an important minister trusted by the emperor, and it is self-evident how King Duan will succeed Cui Yiting.
He can't do this, even if he wants to save Brother Huan, he can't do this, not to mention Wanning, he is Brother Huan's father and Wanning's father.
Think of the ridiculous things he's done in the last few years.
From home to court, he was laughed at, and he couldn't sleep in the dead of night because of guilt.
A man wants to live an upright life, but he lives a dark life.
On the day Shen married Yang Jing, he sat in the room and heard the sound of joy, and remembered the situation when he married Shen.
He was already wrong.
You can't make mistakes again and again.
Otherwise, even if he survives in the world, what face will he have to see Wanning.
Yao Yiwen's heart, which had been wandering, was firm at this time.
He is afraid of death but can't care about anything to save his life, and he is not admitted to the imperial examination to be a chaotic minister and thief.
Yao Yiwen put down the pen in his hand, straightened his sleeves, and raised his head to look at Scholar Xia, "I can't write this edict." ”
Scholar Xia was suddenly surprised.
Yao Yiwen had already agreed, but why did he change his mind at this time.
Scholar Xia gritted his teeth. "You've figured it out."
Yao Yiwen nodded, "I've thought about it." ”
It should be the father who teaches his daughter, but he still wants Wanning to teach him.
There is an epidemic in Jixian County. Wan Ning immediately asked people to buy herbs, and also went out of the city to see the epidemic, the herbs in Beijing were snatched up by dignitaries, Wan Ning thought of a way to let the relatives in Beijing also open medicine sheds to administer medicine, he was surprised, that child did such a big thing.
He's a father, but he's useless. It's just a matter of reading a few books.
Senior Xia's eyes widened, "I've never seen someone as stupid as you, don't you want to live?" ”
Yao Yiwen had a miserable smile on his lips. What else could he do? Sitting here for a long time, there is no expediency, he wants to be a father and a loyal minister, if he can cut off his hands in exchange for the safety of the children, he is willing to do it.
A father who has nothing to say for his children, what position does he have.
Wan Ning had distanced herself from him.
But he still had to stand up straight. Put yourself in the form of a father.
He knew he wasn't worthy of being a father anymore. But he's still going to do this...... Now that you know that you are wrong, you can't hide it, you can't pretend that it's nothing.
He felt that sooner or later, he would think of a way to compensate.
Now, that opportunity is in front of him.
Although this is not the result of his own efforts, and he does not have any decent good ideas to help himself and the entire Yao family tide over the difficulties, he always has the most stupid way to fight with this life. As long as he doesn't agree, the Yao family will not have anything to do with rebellion.
You don't need to think too much about it. He can do it.
No matter what kind of intimidation, he only needs to grit his teeth and get through, and in the end it is nothing more than death, and when he dies, he will atone for the sins on his body.
"I really don't know what to do," Senior Scholar Xia sneered, "Come on, Lord Yao is too comfortable, come over and relax Lord Yao." ”
Yao Yiwen's shoulders were strong and did not collapse.
Looking at Yao Yiwen's determined face, Scholar Xia almost thought that he was wrong, how could a person who had been cultivated for so many years exceed his estimate.
The door was opened, and a few people walked in from the outside, walked towards Yao Yiwen, lifted Yao Yiwen from the chair, and took it off.
"Just fight in the house, no matter where you hit, just don't hit Lord Yao's hand......" Scholar Xia said and stood up, ready to watch how those people punished Yao Yiwen.
Those who dragged Yao Yiwen did not stop, but walked straight out and brought Yao Yiwen into the darkness.
Scholar Xia was stunned for a moment.
What's going on?
Could it be that those people didn't hear him clearly.
"Bring him back to me." Scholar Xia yelled.
The voice was like Yao Yiwen rushing into the darkness, and there was no trace.
The hairs on Scholar Xia's body almost stood on end.
There was a dead silence in the courtyard.
The hot wind blew into the room, but it made Scholar Xia feel cold to the bone.
Scholar Xia subconsciously stepped back, took two steps back but clenched his hands, he wanted to see who was doing the ghost outside, Scholar Xia made up his mind to walk outside.
My feet had just stepped out of the house.
As soon as the fire flashed in the courtyard, torches were lit, and then one after another was lit, illuminating the whole courtyard.
There was a person standing in the courtyard, holding Yao Yiwen with his hand.
The man was petite, her dress fluttering in the wind, and her face was indifferent and haughty, and she looked at him with contempt in the posture of a victor with a slight tilt of her face.
A person's name has already floated in Scholar Xia's heart.
Miss Yao Qi.
No, Grandma Cui.
How she got into this courtyard, how she could stand in front of him.
Scholar Xia shook his head desperately.
It can't be, it can't be.
He worked so hard to arrange this qiē, how could he let a woman break in silently.
It must be Cui Yiting, it is Cui Yiting.
"Where is Cui Yiting?" He was willing to believe that this qiē was arranged by Cui Yiting.
Wan Ning's eyes were calm, but a smile appeared on her face, "He doesn't use here." ”
He doesn't use it here.
Because it can be solved here without Cui Yiting at all.
Yao Wanning's words were like a basin of ice water, pouring down from his head, and Scholar Xia was almost out of breath.
How ironic, he has always regarded Cui Yiting as a fierce rival, and tried every means to transfer Cui Yiting out of the capital, but he didn't expect that Yao Wanning would take advantage of it.
