Chapter 113: Scolding
Xue Huaiyi was suddenly summoned to the small courtyard, kneeling quietly outside the house and motionless, the current Xue family, even he, the third son who was most favored by Xue Yong, had not seen Xue Yong for some time.
From the beginning of calculating He Wenchang, Xue Huaiyi had a plan to deal with this situation, as his father's most proud disciple, He Wenchang's status in his heart was much higher than that of Xue Yong's other students. Even if He Wenchang is a fourth-grade Yuzhou scholar and politician, a He Wenchang can bring countless talents to the Xue family, and He Wenjin, who has long been in a different place, has no effect on the third-grade master except for causing trouble to the Xue family.
The door was opened, Xue Yong's personal Taoist boy walked out slowly with small broken steps, Xue Huaiyi did not look up, since Xue Yong's retreat, everything has to go through the hands of this Taoist boy, Xue Huaiyi was not surprised, just knelt there honestly and did not move.
"Look up." Dao Tong's cold voice came, Xue Huaiyi raised his head a little strangely, looked at Dao Tong standing in front of him, and saw the other party raise his arm high, and fell on Xue Huaiyi's face with lightning speed.
"Slap~", Xue Huaiyi looked at the Taoist boy in front of him with some shock, his face instantly became red and swollen, this slap was extremely heavy, Xue Huaiyi was stunned for a moment in the face of this situation, what is the situation?
"The head of the family has an order, the third master is sorry." Dao Tong bowed to Xue Huaiyi to apologize, this was Xue Yong's order, he would only do it.
"Get in for the old man!" Xue Yong's voice came from the room, and it sounded full of energy. Hearing Xue Yong shouting to himself, Xue Huaiyi didn't dare to hesitate, instantly woke up from the slap just now, and crawled into the house.
Looking at Xue Huaiyi, who had no manners in front of him, Xue Yong took a few breaths and beckoned to Xue Huaiyi, and Xue Huaiyi, who was a little puzzled, knelt down in front of Xue Yong without hesitation. The withered old arm's arm was raised high, and it once again fell heavily on Xue Huaiyi's face, which was already the second slap Xue Huaiyi received today.
"Little belly chicken intestines, doing some stupid things over and over again for some trivial things, do you think everyone is not as smart as you? Why was the old man blind at that time, so he fell in love with you? This is a bit serious, Xue Yong has not scolded for many years, and his tone is obviously not light.
Xue Huaiyi didn't quibble, and hurriedly knocked his head on the ground a few times, and his head fell to the ground and he didn't dare to squeak. Seeing Xue Huaiyi's appearance, Xue Yong still didn't lose his breath, took a few breaths and eased up, Xue Yong looked coldly at Xue Huaiyi who was kneeling in front of him without saying a word, and the atmosphere in the room was cold.
"Look up." Listening to Xue Yong's words, Xue Huaiyi immediately raised his head, the whole person knelt there and trembled a little, and there was no slap falling, Xue Huaiyi quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Look at me." Seeing Xue Huaiyi's gaze on him, Xue Yong opened his mouth and said, "Do you know how many years He Wenchang has been in the position of Yuzhou Xuezheng?" I can tell you that it is not difficult for He Wenchang to pull up a team at the moment, from the officials of the six departments of the imperial court to the seven to five officials of the state capitals and counties, He Wenchang can be said to be full of peach and plum all over the world. And you don't want to think about it, why did he follow my Xue family with all his heart? ”
Xue Huaiyi was already in a cold sweat at this time, and he had estimated He Wenchang's strength, but he didn't expect that the other party's power was already so big. I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when I thought of this.
Glancing at Xue Huaiyi, who was sweating profusely, Xue Yong snorted coldly, and then said: "In the past ten years, He Wenchang has done things for my Xue family honestly, and he has not set up another door not because he can't do without my Xue family, but because the old man is still there, and he only has the old man as a teacher in his eyes, not the prestige of the Xue family that you go out all day long." Because the Xue family is nothing without the old man, understand? ”
Xue Huaiyi nodded hurriedly, straightened up again and listened to Xue Yong's words: "Xue Huaiyi, let me tell you, He Wenchang did what he did to the three of your brothers for the sake of the old man's face, don't think that the old man doesn't know that you have been doing a lot of unsightly things in private recently, but the old man doesn't blame you, but you are for some petty profits, or you are for the sake of the ethereal person who has repeatedly poured dirty water on He Wenchang." This is the most shameful. ”
Taking a breath, Xue Yong then spoke: "The old man is not dead yet, you are slapping He Wenchang's face now, you are slapping the old man's face, you pigs have not thought about what they are doing, the old man originally had a big plan, but your recent behavior is almost the same as a stupid pig, and you have attracted the attention of the court several times, and the old man can't wait to scrape you alive." ”
Glancing at Xue Huaiyi, Xue Yong breathed a sigh of relief. And Xue Huaiyi, who originally didn't care, realized at this time that he seemed to be in trouble, which was very difficult for even his father to deal with.
"In the past few days, I have had a good closed-door reflection and figured it out, and then come to me well." Xue Yong said coldly, and when Xue Huaiyi heard this, he hurriedly got up and left like an amnesty.
Looking at his son's appearance, Xue Yong sighed helplessly, pointed to the desk on the side, looked at Dao Tong and said, "Hand over this letter to the He family, and don't worry about the rest." ”
"Yes, Master." Bowing, Dao Tong walked out of the ashram with the letter.
He Mansion, in the study, He Wenchang couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the letter in his hand, the letter was personally delivered by the Xue family's housekeeper, He Wenchang didn't care too much, but the Xue family's attitude surprised him, when had he seen Xue Yong's such gentle words.
After reading the letter, He Wenchang did not breathe a sigh of relief, but frowned, Xue Yong's attitude was not quite right, no matter how important he was, but it was not an irreplaceable existence, in He Wenchang's opinion, Xue Yong's wording at the moment was tantamount to writing this letter to He Wenchang according to Xue Yong's standards.
Xue Yong must have something to hide from himself, and even ask for himself, thinking about Xue Yong's attitude at this time, He Wenchang felt a little uneasy more and more.
After putting down the letter, thinking about the recent prosperity of the Xue family, He Wenchang beckoned, the housekeeper hurriedly leaned up, took a look, He Wenchang ordered: "Go and check what the Xue family has done in the past three months." ”
"Master, I'm afraid it's a little inappropriate to do this, right?" The housekeeper was a little hesitant, it was just a joke before, how could he have thought that He Wenchang had moved seriously.
"If you go to check, you can honestly check people, where are there so many why?" Glancing at the housekeeper, He Wenchang said with a frown.
"Yes, sir." The housekeeper didn't say anything, so he had to honestly agree. Then he turned around and went out on a long expedition.
In He Wenchang's opinion, the Xue family must be hiding their own things at this time, otherwise Xue Yong would not be the attitude he has now, he must find out and avoid being confused until he dies.
He Wenchang checked the Xue family in Xue Yong's expectation, Xue Yong did not completely hide the secret, as long as He Wenchang dared to do it and wanted to investigate, it would not be difficult as long as he spent some effort. He Wenchang is in Xue Yong's plan, and he is a faction that wants to be absolutely wooed, as long as He Wenchang agrees to help him, Xue Yong will save at least half of his strength.
In Ruyang County, Lin Yuan tasted the grape brew in the cup and nodded with satisfaction, it is rare for the Internal Affairs Office to have this kind of hidden goods, Lin Yuan just said that he wanted to eat grapes, and Hao Peng took out all the grape brews in stock. Seeing that Lin Yuan was satisfied, he still asked cautiously: "Grandpa, this wine is still in good taste." ”
Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Hao Peng and said, "It's hard for you to waste so much energy." Hao Peng looked up at Lin Yuan at this time, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "Grandpa is happy." ”
A little surprised by Hao Peng's attitude towards himself, Lin Yuan thought for a while and asked, "Lord Hao, there is one thing I don't understand, why do you respect us so much?" According to the regulations, it is a big crime for you to transfer things from the Internal Affairs Office at will. “
Hao Peng smiled and didn't speak, pointing to the sign on Lin Yuan's waist. Glancing at the sign on his waist with some confusion, Lin Yuan was even more confused.
"Grandpa, please see, this sign on your waist was given to you by the emperor, and it can only be used by members of the royal family, so no matter how much money you spend today or how many things from the Internal Affairs Office you use, no one will ask."
Lin Yuan frowned, a little unsure of what Hao Pen said, thought about it and said: "If you have something, just say it, I'll see what it is, if I can help you, I'm still happy." ”
I saw that Hao Peng was still hesitating to say or not, but looked at Lin Yuan's impatient expression. Hao Peng fell to his knees all of a sudden, and began to cry at Lin Yuan, how many people were sad and sad by crying in this life.
"Speak slowly, not in a hurry." After comforting Hao Peng for a few words, Lin Yuan looked at Hao Peng and hoped that the other party would give him a satisfactory answer.
It turned out that Hao Peng became like this because of the Xue family, because Huangzhuang is located in Runan County, and it is under the rule of Yuzhou, and the Xue family was still restrained at the beginning, but then they simply didn't even cover it up. Several times he sent people to harass the management of the Imperial Village.
Fortunately, Hao Peng's errand was barely completed, but he could hide from the first day of junior high school, but he couldn't hide from the fifteenth, Hao Peng couldn't follow the Xue family every day, look at the current situation, he didn't think of a good way, and the warehouse in Ruyang County was afraid that it would have been emptied by himself a long time ago. At that time, he will have a few heads enough to cut off the other party. So the top priority now is to solve the problem of the Xue family.
After listening to Hao Peng's description, Lin Yuan frowned slightly, it seemed that he couldn't run away, and he could only solve this problem, otherwise Hao Peng's matter would become a big thunder sooner or later. Once it is detonated, it will not only make Hao Peng die without a place to be buried, but I am afraid it will also involve his trip to Yuzhou, so this problem needs to be solved as soon as possible.
