Chapter 65: Willing to Be a First Bird

(Thank you for the book friend Baby Panda and the book friend L599XL for the 100 coins reward again~)

The little uncle often stayed idle in the village these days, and how to be comfortable without his father's discipline, often hunting and returning late, and then sleeping lazy.

Today is the third pole of the sun, he is still asleep, until Chang Gui looks for it, then he rubs his eyes in a daze and asks, "Uncle, what's the matter?" ”

Chang Gui was already anxious, his nose was covered with beads of sweat, where did he still have the heart to chat with the little uncle, and said urgently: "Brother Feng, the big thing is not good." Today, I asked someone to go to Hou Xiucai's house to collect the land, but Hou Xiucai was pestered and driven out, and he kept saying that he did not sell the land. The old servant took the deed signed with him that day and prepared to go to the county government to ask for an explanation, who would have wanted to open the box containing the deed to take a look...... The deed has become a blank slate! ”

"What!"

When the little uncle heard this, he woke up, kicked open the thin quilt sandwiched between his legs, and asked, "How can a good deed become a blank slate?" ”

He hurriedly put on his pants and blouse, and walked out while tying his belt.

"Uncle Gui, don't worry, I'll take a look at the deed first."

Chang Gui hurriedly opened the box, took the deed and handed it to Chang Feng.

The little uncle was also surprised when he unfolded it.

"How can this deed become a blank slate? Isn't that what kind of means Hou Xiucai used on paper? ”

Chang Gui sighed and said, "It's all to blame for the old servant being too careless and letting this guy take advantage of the loophole." Seven hundred and fifty taels of silver, it looks like it was lost. The old servant should die, the old servant deserve to die. ”

The purpose of the deed is to prevent a situation where one party suddenly does not want to sell, or wants to sell at a higher price.

People's hearts are not ancient, and they have to set up a document, and only then can they have the bottom of their hearts.

Who knew that this Hou Xiu had such magical powers, and he could turn a deed into a blank piece of paper.

In this way, Hou Xiucai will be sued to the yamen, and I am afraid that the county officials will not stand on the side of the Chang family.

The mute loss of the Chang family is a certainty.

"That's it, that's it. In that case, it is better to spend money on a lesson. Don't deal with that Hou Xiucai in the future. He dared to cheat my Chang family like this, and he also had the guts. Master, I want to fix him, there is a way. I don't have to report this to my father. ”

Where is the little uncle's temperament to swallow his anger. As he said, there will be opportunities and excuses to rectify Hou Xiucai in the future, and this time let him be proud for a few days.

"Hey, thank you Brother Feng."

Chang Gui is grateful for Chang Feng's decision.

If the master knew about this, he would inevitably have to eat a meal and hang up, and maybe he would have to take a board. His bones are beaten and the board must not fall apart?

Two flowers bloomed, one on each side, but it was said that in the Lu Mansion in Jingzhou, in the middle of the night, Lu You'an, the head of the Lu family, worked hard to write a letter, read it several times in a row, and after confirming that it was correct, he took a deep breath and put the letter paper into the envelope.

He took the candle and dripped the wax oil on the mouth of the envelope, sealed it full, and then said in a deep voice: "Someone." ”

The housekeeper Lu Fang limped into the house and replied respectfully, "What does the master command?" ”

"Here's a handwritten letter I just wrote. You send a reliable henchman to take him to the Beijing Division, and personally hand it over to Lord Shen Lun Shen in the matter. Remember to let him hand it over to Lord Shen himself. ”

"Yes."

Lu Fang cautiously took the letter and said, "Does the master have anything to say to Lord Shen?" ”

Lu Youan shook his head and said, "Lord Shen will understand it after reading the letter. ”

He sighed in his heart, Mr. Chu is really reliable, and he will do things when he takes the money, which is much better than those black and black officials.

He, Lu Youan, naturally had to abide by the previous gentleman's agreement, and he came forward to impeach Wu Changbo and Zhang Juzheng.

If it weren't for the collusion between the third son of the Zhang family and Wu Changbo's little scumbag, the Chen County Order would not have made a sentence to punish the servants of the Lu family.

hurt the face of the Lu family, and still pretend to be nothing?

Although he was pushed out by His Royal Highness the King of Liao to be the first bird, he admitted it.

The world only knows that Zhang Juzheng is in power and opposition, but he does not know that when the water is full, it will overflow, and when the moon is full, it will be lost.

He believed that Zhang Juzheng's decline began with this letter!

......

On August 29, it rained heavily.

In front of an inconspicuous mansion in Yongfang, a middle-aged man in a cloak and a hat kept knocking on the door.

The rain fell down his hat, forming a curtain of rain, and then fell on the bluestone slab, ticking and crackling.

At last the door opened, and an old gray-haired butler with an oil-paper umbrella opened the latch and leaned out half of his body.

"You are?"

"I am a servant of the Lu family in Jiangling, and I personally handed over a letter to Lord Shen at the order of my master."

"Please wait a moment, little old man will go and say goodbye."

It stands to reason that it is raining heavily at the moment, and it is too rude to shut people out of the door like this, but rules are rules, and the old housekeeper can't lead him to see Shen Lun without informing.

Shen Lun was closing his eyes at the moment, and when he heard a knock on the door, he opened his eyes and said slowly, "Come in." ”

"Master, there is a servant who claims to be from the Lu family in Jiangling outside the house, saying that he has brought you a letter and wants to hand it over to you."

"Oh?"

Shen Lun nodded and said, "Bring him in." ”

"Yes."

The old housekeeper retreated again, opened the door, and said to the servants of the Lu family who were sheltering from the rain under the eaves: "My lord invites you in." ”

As he spoke, he led the visitor in.

Shen Lun's official residence is in the matter, although he is a ruthless character that everyone fears. But because his grade is only seventh, he is really meager and can't afford to buy a big house.

Housing prices in Kyoto are extremely expensive. A three-entry house costs only three or five white taels in Shen Lun's hometown in Shaanxi, but it costs more than two thousand taels in Beijing.

Shen Lun borrowed money everywhere and gritted his teeth to buy a two-entry house, barely able to accommodate the next family.

The old housekeeper took the servants of the Lu family to the main house, and the servant who delivered the letter arched his hand when he saw Shen Lun and said, "Dare to ask if this is Lord Shen Lun Shen in the matter of Hu Ke?" ”

"Yes, the old man is Shen Lun."

Shen Lun sat on the circle chair and stroked his chin and said unhurriedly.

"My lord ordered the villain to send a handwritten letter to Lord Shen, and the villain did not dare to delay, so he took a boat all the way to change boats, and it took more than 20 days to arrive in Beijing."

Shen Lun is such a human spirit, he knows that this guy is a reward, so he said to the old butler: "Go and prepare ten taels of entanglement for this strong man." ”

The servant who delivered the letter was a great joy. Ten taels of silver is his monthly money for half a year, and it is not in vain that he has to travel for a long time.

Satisfied, he began to untie his trouser belt, and Shen Lun couldn't help but change his face and scolded angrily: "What are you doing here? ”

"Lord Qiyu, my lord told me that this letter is very important, so the villain has been hiding him in the safest place."

After saying that, he put his hand into the crotch of his pants, took out the letter, and respectfully handed it to Shen Lun.
