Chapter 363: Raiding the House
The formation of a person's personality is too complicated, and countless external factors will affect it to a greater or lesser extent, and Hai Rui's personality is not innate, but largely comes from his mother.
Hai Rui's first wife gave birth to two daughters, and was forced to divorce his wife by his mother, and the second wife started for a month, and the relationship between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was not good, so Hai Rui immediately kicked her out of the house...... Qian Yuan listened to the servant's flattering whisper, and was glad that he hadn't met this kind of old lady.
In the backyard of the county government, Hai Rui stepped into the field barefoot and picked a few vegetables to cook...... Qian Yuan only cooks because he likes food, and Hai Rui can only cook by himself.
After a simple meal, Hai Mu put down her rice bowl and sat down to look at her son, Hai Rui immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, and knelt on the ground to listen to the teachings.
"I've heard about it." Hai Mu said softly: "I heard that although Qian Zhancai is a child of a family, he has unparalleled integrity, and he has repeatedly gone into battle to fight the Japanese, and the guards around him are even more famous in the southeast, and he has repeatedly broken the Japanese invaders, is this true?" ”
"That's true." Hai Rui didn't raise his head, he knelt on the ground and replied: "Songjiang, Suzhou, Jiaxing, and Hangzhou are all over the country, and because most of the civil and military officials in the southeast are old friends, their reputation spreads all over the southeast. ”
"The guards in the downtown area trampled on the horses and injured passers-by, and they did not flee, but dismounted and apologized to accompany Yin, why did you embarrass him?"
Hai Rui fell to his knees and said nothing.
Hai Mu sighed, "I know that you can't sleep night after night because of the matter of repairing the river embankment, and when you see the Hao slave riding the horse, you want to use it for the benefit of the people." ”
"Why did it end up like this, have you ever thought about it?"
"My son should ask ...... history first" Hai Rui raised his head slightly and saw his mother's ugly face, and quickly lowered his head again, "Please teach my mother." ”
"Even if you are dedicated to goodness, but you don't follow the right path, you will always end up in the inferior." Hai Mu advised: "People are taking advantage of it now, and they haven't left yet, so obviously their anger hasn't disappeared." ”
Hai Rui hesitated: "Then the son is going to apologize?" ”
"Why should my son apologize for the benefit of the people?" Hai Mu snorted, "The so-called Gongshengming, Lian Shengwei......"
In the middle of speaking, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and Hai Rui's two daughters rushed over, causing Hai Rui's face to change, and reprimanded: "There are no rules!" ”
The eldest daughter, who was already ten years old, hurriedly grabbed her sister and stood by the door in a proper manner, "Grandmother, father, there are soldiers outside who surround the county office." ”
Hai Rui got up in shock, but the mother of Hai on the opposite side said: "Every time there is a big event, there is calmness." ”
Hai Rui calmed down, saluted his mother, slowly exited the room, turned and walked to the front yard.
The lights in the county hall were bright, Qian Yuan was still leisurely sipping tea, talking and laughing with the guards around him from time to time, seven or eight generals around him stood solemnly, Wang Yin and Zheng Ruozeng sat around Qian Yuan, with solemn faces.
Seeing Hai Rui appear around the corner, Qian Yuan put down the teacup and said softly: "Go, Yang Wen, you take two officials to lead the way, and you must catch them all." ”
Hai Rui was about to enter the lobby to ask what was going on, when a guard stopped in front of him with one hand, pressed the other hand on the hilt of the knife, and shouted, "Stop." ”
Wang Yin and Zheng Ruozeng turned their heads to look, they both turned their heads indifferently, and their eyes fell on the head catcher who was kneeling on the ground.
Hearing the neighing and shouting of horses, seven or eight generals led their troops to the west side of Fuyang County, and Liu Zhu's head, who was kneeling on the ground, collapsed as if he had no bones.
It is difficult to say whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, but at least, if you enjoy the money of the Japanese Invaders, you will be raided, exiled or even have your head cut off.
Qian Yuan got up and paced a few steps, and kicked the calf of the head catcher, "I moved to Fuyang County at the beginning of last year, and three months later, I sent the previous county order three hundred taels of silver to become a catcher, and I was trusted by Haizhi County to be promoted to the head catcher, presumably the Liu family should have a lot of money." ”
Liu Zhutou perked up and was about to speak, but Qian Yuan waved his hand, and a guard stuffed a piece of cloth into this guy's mouth, he didn't want to listen to this guy's nagging.
Qian Yuan smiled gently: "Liu Zhutou, remember the name Wu Dahu, right?" He should be called Liu Hu, right? ”
"It was also nicknamed the Spotted Tiger, and it is said that it went to sea more than ten years ago."
"I regretted handing him over that day, and I regretted it even more when he died in Nanjing prison the next day."
"You should dig out his skin and flesh piece by piece and make a dish, and it will definitely sell well...... At least hundreds of people in Yanzhou Mansion, Huizhou Mansion, Ningguo Mansion, and Taiping Mansion are willing to spend this money. ”
Qian Yuan didn't speak loudly, and his tone was quite gentle, but the people around him could hear the slightest smell of blood from his words.
Wang Yin went back to report the news, Hu Zongxian thought about it again and again and nodded, Zheng Ruozeng followed, and only on the way did he know that the second child of the Liu family was the guide of more than 100 widows who traveled thousands of miles last year.
Last year, Qian Yuan intended to let people investigate one or two, but he was summoned to Beijing before the arrangement was completed, and he was going to deal with it later when he returned to the southeast this time, but he didn't expect it to hit it today.
The piggyback thing happened to send some silver to Hu Zongxian's Governor's Mansion, which was also a small favor.
"A few days ago, you instigated Haizhi County like that, because your eldest brother died at the hands of the Governor?" Qian Yuan smiled and said, "It's really stupid, don't shrink your head...... Now it's okay, one knife down, one hundred. ”
Qian Yuan whispered softly, the faces of the guards around him were all hideous, they were the old people around Qian Yuan, they all followed Yang Wen and Xu Wei for thousands of miles to pursue the Japanese Kou, and everywhere they passed was scorched earth, miserable.
Zheng Ruozeng and Wang Yin were expressionless, slowly drinking tea and waiting for the news to come.
And Hai Rui was stopped outside the county hall and was not allowed to enter, and his eyes were full of fire...... It's a pity that no one takes him seriously.
"If Hai Gangfeng is in the early years of the dynasty, he should be a generation of famous ministers." Zheng Ruozeng glanced at Hai Rui outside the door.
In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, it was more common to raise people to enter the office, and even prisoners from the Guozijian could become high-ranking officials...... Of course, the most important reason is that Zhu Yuanzhang likes Qingguan and likes to peel skin and fill grass, which is more in line with Hai Rui's temper.
Wang Yin has a different opinion, "Taizu attaches importance to practical results, and Haigangfeng has no talent for governance." ”
"It's hard to say, I heard that he cleared the land when he first arrived and decided difficult cases." Zheng Ruozeng said with a smile: "It is said that it is to repair the river embankment that I found Zhancai." ”
"At this time, the land of Qingzhang ......" Qian Yuan couldn't help but shake his head and said: "A fool, judge the case clearly...... He doesn't call it judgmental. ”
"How?"
"Rather than wronging the small people, I would rather wronged the villagers." Qian Yuan spread his hands and said: "Someone sued the rich man for forcibly occupying the land, and he asked the rich man to return the land without asking right or wrong...... The head of that family is a two-rank jinshi who has just passed away. ”
Wang Yin and Zheng Ruozeng both shook their heads slightly, this kind of thing is too complicated, and Hai Rui handled it too roughly.
In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, once someone was promoted to Jinshi, not to mention relatives and friends, even the nearby people would donate land for tax exemption and wait for Jinshi to die...... Naturally, those people wanted to get the land back, so there were some cunning people who took advantage of this loophole.
In fact, if Hai Rui can be admitted to the Jinshi, his life trajectory may be completely different, Qian Yuan thinks that the best position for Hai Rui is the imperial history of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy...... However, this guy's temperament is only afraid that he will not be a gunman, whether it is Yan Song, Xu Jie, Li Mo, Gao Gong or Zhang Juzheng, they will all spray wildly, and it is estimated that Yushi will have to get out of the country in less than a month.
In the lobby, Liu Zhutou, who was gagged, was thrown into the corner, the guards stood guards, and Qian Yuan and the other three chatted casually.
Hai Rui outside the lobby has calmed down, if it is just Qian Yuan, it can only be said that everyone in the world has misjudged him in the past few years, but there are also Wang Yin and Zheng Ruozeng, the two henchmen of the governor of Zhejiang, which makes Hai Rui have to think more.
The news from the outside world has also come, Liu's family has been raided, the whole family of thirteen people, and dozens of servants have been detained, Hai Rui asked people to inquire, and the crime reported back was that he was a widow.
Hearing the neighing of horses outside, Qian Yuan, who had drunk a belly of tea, said with a smile: "Come on, come on, see how lucky Hu Ruzhen is tonight." ”
It was the leader of the Governor's Mansion who led the team to raid the house, but it was actually Hu Zongxian's eldest son Hu Guiqi who was in command, and this guy walked in excitedly. (Recommended reading: Reading Files 2013)
