Chapter 568: Confrontation
After two expansions, the building has reached the point where it can accommodate more than 5,000 children.
Although it is not yet fully occupied, there are nearly 4,000 children who have been taken in from the vicinity of Gyeonggi.
In addition, the husband, the housekeeper, the cook, the handyman, etc., are not counted as the soldiers of the forbidden army who are responsible for the guards, and the number of people in the entire health hall is close to 5,000.
Four or five thousand men, if it were an army, would have been able to take a great city.
Although the men, women, and children of the Yangsheng Hall are not in the army, so many people went out together, and they still set off a huge storm and sound in the entire Xicheng for the first time.
The soldiers of the forbidden army who were in charge of guarding the Jia family all looked nervously at the large number of people who came around.
No matter how large the two mansions are, two or three hundred of them are enough to guard them.
But now, the entire Ningrong Street and Ningrong Backstreet are blocked with people!
There are more than ten times as many people.
It's not that they're afraid, in fact, even if there are many people on the other side, but all of them are unarmed, not to mention that they have hundreds, even dozens of people, they won't be afraid, the key is ......
"Wow Wow Wow ......"
A child who was not yet three years old seemed frightened when he saw the soldiers of the forbidden army with knives, and suddenly threw himself into the arms of his eldest sister who was holding him, and began to cry loudly.
When he cried, he immediately didn't know how many similar cries he bringed.
As a result, the scene of saber rattling has become strange and alternative......
In front of the main gate, Han Zhilian's face was extremely ugly, looking at the young man holding a boy in front of him, and said coldly: "Gu Dingchen, what are you doing, do you want to gather a crowd to rebel?" β
Han Zhilian had followed the second prince to the health hall before, so he knew Gu Dingchen.
Gu Dingchen also didn't have a good impression of Han Zhilian, he sneered when he heard the words, turned the child in his arms, and looked around at the hundreds of big children around him, and said with a smile: "Lord Han is serious, Gu looks like a rebellion?" β
"And what are you doing here?"
Faced with Han Zhilian's questioning, Gu Dingchen didn't pay any more attention.
He held the child in his arms and led the people around him to walk slowly and steadily towards the front.
Although the children around him were afraid, they still unswervingly followed when they saw Mr. Big walking in front.
Those forbidden soldiers didn't seem to know whether to stop them or not, so they could only let Gu Dingchen lead people past them, and even watched some small dots drill through their crotches......
"A hundred years ago, the two ancestors of the Jia family followed Emperor Taizu to fight in the south and the north, and assisted Taizu in establishing this great mystical country.
It can be said that he is famous all over the world, and Ze is born by the common people.
Emperor Taishang also had a book inscribed in the ancestral hall of the Jia family:
He has inherited his children and grandchildren, and he still thinks of Rongning.
After His Majesty came to the court, he also continued to give grace to Jiafu.
If the saint is still like this, why do you dare to trample on this noble century-old mansion with a mere contemptible body? β
Gu Dingchen stood in front of the gate and asked in a loud voice.
When those forbidden soldiers heard this, they couldn't help but feel ashamed in their hearts.
This is the reverence of the people in the army for the founding marshal, and it is also the reverence of the people at the bottom for the century-old aristocracy.
Han Zhihuan sneered: "The Jia family colluded with rebellion and rebellion, and this official was ordered to arrest it, which is the outline of national law!" β
What about the mansions of the founding heroes?
In the 100 years since the founding of the country, except for a few mansions, most of the mansions that were once famous and glorious have been just empty heads, and have even disappeared into the clouds of the past.
The remnants of the ancestors are by no means indestructible talismans.
Today, he has to move this century-old mansion!
"On whose orders, by whom?"
"Naturally, it is the order of the King of Qi......"
"The order of the King of Qi?" Gu Dingchen looked at Han Zhilian coldly, and said in a surprising voice: "King Qi, what qualifications do you have to order the opening of the House of Meritorious Heroes?!" β
Gu Dingchen said righteousness and strictness.
Sending courtiers to prison and raiding their homes is the power of the emperor!
Because the second prince and others were busy countering the iron net mountain, although the "imperial court" had received the news of Emperor Jingtai's death from the second prince, they did not free up their hands to arrange a national funeral.
As a result, most of the people in the capital do not know the news that the emperor has died.
Even if you put aside Emperor Jingtai, there is still the Queen Mother above!
The second prince is not qualified to send his courtiers to prison and raid his house!
Of course, the truth is so, but in fact, now the capital is the second prince in charge.
Otherwise, why was the Feng family slaughtered?
"...... you?? It's the other way around, it's the other way around! β
Han Zhihuan shouted loudly: "Your Majesty has died, and you should be the king of Qi to inherit the unification!" This point, even the princes of the court have agreed, just because the king of Qi takes the overall situation as the most important thing and thinks that the rebellion outside the city should be suppressed first, and then the matter of ascending the throne should be discussed, so this is the case!
On the contrary, your surname is Gu, but a small man, first gathered a crowd to make trouble, and now he is disrespectful to His Royal Highness Qi Wang, such an act is no different from rebellion! β
Han Zhihuan originally wanted to directly accuse Gu Dingchen of rebelling against the same party, but he was afraid of so many people behind him, so he wanted to drink him back first, and after he disposed of the Jia family, he would go back and slowly clean him up.
Gu Dingchen naturally didn't take his threat to heart, just looked around and said: "King Qi is known as a benevolent saint, but now that the Emperor Taishang and His Majesty are not in the capital, they connive at such a young person as a disaster in Beijing, which really makes the people of the world cold!" β
After saying this, Gu Dingchen looked at the slightly older children around him and said:
"Although I am Mr. Er, I am like Er, and I am deeply favored by President Jia.
The teachings of the sage: The grace of a drop of water should be reported first when the spring springs.
Now that your eldest brother's family has been murdered for such a reason, can we sit idly by? β
"Can't!!"
"Can't !!"
From the very beginning, Jia Baoyu did not regard it as a simple health hall. In his vision, it was a cradle of education that was different from the national prison, the government school, and the private school.
He wants to teach the children in the health hall more knowledge than limited to the Four Books and Five Classics, and cultivate them from the lonely and weak who cannot survive to the talents needed by all aspects of society and can lead the progress of the times......
This is a long way to go, and it is also a little contribution that Jia Baoyu feels that he has the ability and should make to the times as a traverser.
It is also based on these concepts that a talented scholar like Gu Dingchen can willingly become his pawn.
Therefore, although the health hall has only been established for a year, the older children are basically able to read and write.
For some simple truths, there is also an ignorant and naΓ―ve understanding.
The grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring.
This truth was not only taught by Mr. Big (Gu Dingchen), but also by other gentlemen in class.
For those who have just come into contact with "light", light is obviously more precious.
Therefore, when Mr. Big said that their benefactor, their big brother was in trouble and needed their help, they all blushed and followed Mr. Big without hesitation, from the health hall, from their new home.
Seeing that the countless people around him became more and more neat and generous, Han Zhilian's face was faintly cruel: "The surname Gu, if you don't leave with them again, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!" β
It's a pity that Gu Dingchen didn't pay any attention to his threat.
Looking at the students whose faces were flushed but full of perseverance, he smiled with satisfaction.
He did not regret proposing to take these children hostage to protect Jiafu.
No one knows better than him what would happen to these duckweed-like children without Jia Baoyu.
No one knows better than him how the fate of these children will change with Jia Baoyu.
So, even though it would put these innocent, naΓ―ve children in danger, he did it.
He wants to make the fate of these children more closely involved with Jia Baoyu.
Pioneers always have to go through some hardships and risks to forge a new path.
As long as Jia Baoyu lives, as long as Jia Baoyu's original intention for these children does not change, then there will be more children like them in the world in the future who will benefit from this great cause.
So, children, don't be afraid, Mr. Big will stand with you......
Looking at the stubborn Gu Dingchen, Han Zhilian was completely angry.
"All the principals of the Jia family and their female dependents were taken into the trial department, and the rest were all detained in place. Those who were present but dared to obstruct were all considered rebellious and unforgiving! β
Han Zhilian ordered with a hideous face.
The trial department was a temporary deployment approved by the second prince to be set up, and was responsible for inspecting the rebels in the city.
Zhang Zhicheng's face was hesitant, and he whispered in Han Zhijuan's ear: "Lord Han, please think twice, if you kill these children, I am afraid that it will hinder the reputation of King Qi......"
Zhang Zhicheng was very worried, King Qi was known as a benevolent gentleman.
Han Zhihuan acted like this, but he was afraid that King Qi would not agree if he knew about it......
Han Zhihuan looked at him gloomily and said coldly: "Waste......!" β
Seeing that Zhang Zhicheng's face was embarrassed and ugly, he finally explained: "The child can't be killed, those people surnamed Gu, can't you still kill them?" β
Han Zhijuan didn't believe that these milky little children could have much willpower?
As long as you see blood, you will definitely cry and cry for your mother to escape......
Zhang Zhicheng saw that Han Zhihuan insisted on making a move, so he had no choice but to quietly order the deputy general and others: "Separate all those children, you just go in and arrest people, don't hurt your lives......"
As a result, all the soldiers of the forbidden army marched in columns, intending to line up the children blocking Ningrong Street.
But Han Zhihuan and Zhang Zhicheng obviously underestimated the banditry of teenage children......
Seeing that the officers and soldiers in armor had not even pulled out their knives, the more courageous ones had already pounced directly on them, pulling and pulling, and biting ......
Seeing this, others followed suit.
As a result, although the physique is different, in the face of more than ten times the number of children, the forbidden army still can't move an inch.
The spacious Ningrong Street soon became a mess.
β¦β¦
Across the street, dozens of officers from the Xing Ming Division of the Criminal Department stood neatly here.
A person dressed up quickly ran to the front of an official sedan chair, and explained the situation on Ningrong Street with Tian Heng in detail, and then asked, "My lord, are we still going over?" β
Tianheng thought for a moment and said, "Don't use it for the time being, you can go to the front and inquire about ......."
He was instructed by Zong Zhe to help the Jia family.
But there was no fear in his heart.
This is clearly against the party of King Qi, and if King Qi ascends the throne in the future, the future of his Tian family is worrying.
Now that he heard that thousands of children from the Jingshi Health Hall surrounded Ning Rong Street, he was relieved.
In this current situation, if the person surnamed Han really did something and caused the casualties of innocent children, the reputation of King Qi would definitely be greatly damaged......
This is not the Feng family...... Feng Tang led his troops to besiege the city is a fait and ironclad fact, and no one dares to say anything after copying the Feng family.
At that time, there will be another good show.
Just thinking about it, he suddenly saw seven or eight horsemen coming from the street, Tian Heng looked at it at a glance and immediately asked people to stop him.
"Uncle Tian? Why are you here? β
Du Shirong came across the horse, looked at Tianheng who was hiding here like a thief, and asked curiously.
Tianheng said with a smile: "There are thieves in the capital, and I will lead people to squat here...... But what is the virtuous nephew going to do in a hurry? β
Du Shirong's face was embarrassed, and he said: "King Beijing asked people to surround the Jia family, and now the person surnamed Han, who is in charge of affairs, has brought someone over, I'm afraid that the Jia Mansion is in trouble, I have to go and take a look......"
So saying, he turned his horse's head to leave.
Tianheng hurriedly said: "The prince of Beijing and Han Zhilian are both doing things for the king of Qi, if they want to embarrass the Jia family, what is the use of you going?"
As far as I know, the Du family has nothing to do with the Jia family, so why should the virtuous nephew take this risk for the sake of the Jia family? β
"I have a relationship with Jia Baoyu's brothers, even if I can't save the Jia family, I can't let the dog surnamed Han hurt people for no reason......"
Leave a sentence at will, Du Shirong has already left.
In place, Tian Heng bowed his head and smiled.
Others say that Du Jiahu's father is a dog and a son, and Du Anjiao finally got old and had a son, but he is a disciple who does not seek progress, only knows how to walk chickens and tease dogs, and sound dogs and horses.
But looking at his actions today, he is quite a man of courage and righteousness.
Smiling and smiling, Tianheng's eyes suddenly deepened.
If the guess of the ministry is right, maybe with Du Shirong's righteous act today, the Du family will not be extinct......
psοΌ
I actually wrote a large "apology letter" before, but I read it twice and didn't send it......
There should be plenty of time for the rest of the year, and I will try to end the second prince in about ten chapters, and then return to the plot of the Red Mansion.
