Volume 2 Entering the Beijing Division Chapter 71 Filial piety is born to attract talents
Then he and Guo Lianqing grabbed Yun Hetai's arms left and right, and then lined up to Yun Hetai's back, and shouted:
"Don't wake up yet?!"
Yun Hetai was slapped so that a mouthful of essence blood splashed out of his mouth, but his eyes became more and more scarlet.
As soon as he turned his head, he stared at Guo Lianqing and shouted:
"Slut! So what benefits did Hou Shigui promise you to make you speak for him everywhere for a year? Couldn't you conceive his?! ”
Guo Lianqing was stunned when she heard this, her heart was desolate, but Yun Hetai couldn't help roaring:
"Your husband, your lover is me!! From today on, if you dare to see that Hou Shigui again, I will go crazy and send you, the adulterer and adulteress, to the Yellow Spring!! ”
Because Yun Hetai roared too loudly, Qin Tian was afraid that the people of the Hou Mansion would hear it and reach Hou Shigui's ears.
He raised his palm and slapped him on the neck, knocking him unconscious on the spot.
I saw Guo Lianqing hugging the fainted Yun Hetai crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and the flowers were discolored:
"Big brother...... I...... I'm not sorry for you......"
Qin Tian also knew about this matter, Yun and Tai had endured it for a whole year, and today it finally broke out.
Now that the words have been spoken, he also said to Guo Lianqing:
"Qing'er, I think that Hou Gongzi has a broad heart, he is a person who does great things, and he has no time for children to grow up, so why should you?
Besides, a person of Hou Gongzi's status, even if he wants to marry, there is a marriage, you ...... Alas...... Do it yourself. ”
Qin Tian sighed faintly, and then brushed his sleeves away.
Only Guo Lianqing was left holding the unconscious senior brother and sobbing in a low voice.
After a long time, Yun Hetai also slowly opened his eyes and looked at her directly:
"Did you hear what Master said?
Even Master, who has always loved you the most, is on my side!
Half a month later, I will complete the exercises, and you and I will have a round house! ”
"Yes......"
Guo Lianqing lowered her head and slowly responded, without saying more.
The next day, anxious to find out why Linben County had changed so much in a year, Xin Dingkai hurried to Yamen to take office.
Only the daughter was left at home with his wife.
I didn't see him come back until nightfall, and I didn't eat or speak, but sat alone on a chair.
His wife and daughter were so anxious that they were about to cry before he got up and said:
"I'll come when I go."
He hurried away.
Hou Shigui was writing a letter to Wang Zhen in the house, and suddenly someone came to report that Xin Dingkai asked to see him.
After carefully putting away the letter, he asked Xin Dingkai to come in:
"Uncle, how's he?"
"It's good."
Xin Dingkai's tone was a little heavy, and he didn't need Hou Shigui to greet him, he found a chair and sat down, and said bluntly:
"I've already asked your second brother, if it weren't for the fact that I really couldn't help it, I wouldn't have come to you.
Virtuous nephew, eighty percent of the population of Linben County is all small households in your house, and this matter is not appropriate. ”
Hou Shigui thought about it for a while, and knew that this was indeed a bit excessive.
In the past, no one came to remind him, and he didn't feel it yet, but now that he was reminded, he found that eighty percent of the population of Linben County had become a small household in the Hou Mansion.
If this matter is stabbed into His Majesty's ears by someone with a heart, Linben County will become Hou County.
Even if it is not against the law, the emperor has a hundred ways to make himself die silently:
"Uncle has worked hard, I will handle this matter properly, and I will never embarrass my uncle."
After Xin Dingkai left, Hou Shigui took out the letter again to confirm, and then called Lu Xing'an:
"This letter will be sent to the Inner Prison Office of King Jingshi, and then Master Wang will be called."
Soon after Lu Xing'an left, Wang Hou hurried over:
"What does Childe command?"
"Arrange it, divide fifty percent of the small households in the house into the names of the squires everywhere, but in fact, it is still under our control, and I will say to that Xie Jing, and in half a month, give me a filial piety."
The official position of Da Chu is not something that can be taken office if he is filial piety.
All those who have been promoted to filial piety and honesty still need to go to Beijing for an examination and confirm that their conduct is not hindered before they can arrange official positions according to the matter.
This was the case when Hou Wenbo was promoted to filial piety last year.
So when Xie Jing's letter of filial piety came, Hou Shigui had arranged for someone to pack their bags and prepare to go.
On the day of departure, the people of Linben rushed to tell each other and spontaneously sent each other.
The long queue has been squeezed from the Hou Mansion to the eastbound official road, and even the officials of all sizes in the county have come out.
Hou Shigui drove lightly, and only brought Bao Ji, Bao Sen, Xiang Xu, Lu Xing'an, the Tang brothers and Master Wang.
Speaking of Master Wang, since Hou Shigui's bold remarks on that day, Master Wang handed over his resignation to Xie Jing that day and decided to follow Hou Shigui with all his heart.
In addition, Hou Shigui has a total of eight people, one person and two horses, so that there are three large horses pulling goods carrying heavy goods.
"I went to Jingshi, don't contradict your father again, Jianyuan's child also went to Beijing to work after he went back, you can also go and walk around, after all, they are all relatives, and he will help if he can help."
is the so-called son Xingqianli mother is worried, even if there is still Hou Shigui's father in the Beijing Division.
Hou still gave thousands of instructions, for fear that his son would suffer a loss and be bullied.
"The mother can rest assured, the child can be saved, and this time in the assessment, I don't know where I will be sent to train as an official."
The last time Hou Wenbo entered Beijing for the assessment, Hou Puru took a lot of connections before he could be sent to his hometown as an official.
That's it, it's better to sit up with a small paperwork.
This time, Hou Shigui will not be sent back to Linben no matter what, and it is estimated that Xiling will also be hanging.
That's why Hou is so worried.
But Hou Shigui's heart is clear, and he has already made a plan for the future, so he is not panicked in his heart.
After talking with his mother, Hou Shigui said goodbye to his second brother and others one by one, and then led everyone away from Linben.
Not long after entering and exiting the official road, a rider came from the rear:
"Hou Gongzi! Master thanked Childe for his kindness and asked me to be by Childe's side to protect Childe! ”
Guo Lianqing approached the horse, and I don't know how much courage she mustered to say this.
Let a married woman accompany me to protect me?
Hou Shigui glanced at Guo Lianqing with a little deep meaning, and saw that her face was blushing, and he didn't break it, but said:
"In this case, there is Miss Lao Guo."
On the side, Bao Sen's eyebrows fluttered and he said to Wang Hou:
"What's the matter, I just said that Guo Nuxia fell in love with our son, right? Willing to gamble and lose, take the money! ”
Wang Hou took out a few taels of silver from his arms and stuffed them into Bao Sen's palm with a gloomy face, and then sighed:
"Childe is so blessed, but this Guo Nuxia is afraid that she has made a mistake in her wishful thinking, what kind of character is Childe? Marriage matters have their own masters' decisions. How can she be allowed to go around as a woman? ”
However, Bao Ji looked at Guo Lianqing next to Hou Shigui's horse like a personal guard, and his eyes were full of distractions.
Turning his head to Xiang Xu beside him, he said:
"Old Xiang, do you think the two of us are too useless? can't even compare to a girl, and she has to rely on her to protect her son. ”
Xiang Xu grinned and quipped:
"Is the name of your seven-fingered Yama for nothing? If you really want to work hard, Guo Nuxia is not your opponent. ”
What he said was a joke, but Bao Ji took it seriously, nodded seriously and said:
"That's true, and we've both been with Childe for more than ten years, how long has this girl been with Childe? Do you also deserve to compete with the two of us? ”
