Chapter 158: Doubts solved
"Uncle Shi made up for 1,000 households in May, and was promoted to deputy envoy of Jinlingwei in July...... The two uncles of the Jia family, who made up for their military positions in March, are now in office in Dongcheng Qianhu, the second uncle Jia is a thousand households, and Uncle Jia is the palm print......"
Speaking of this, Huo Bao paused: "Uncle Shi is very relieved of you, and asked my father to inquire about your news several times...... My father asked someone to go to Bozhou to look for you before, but there was no clue, thinking you used a pseudonym......"
Unexpectedly, Shi Cong didn't go to Bozhou at all, but Hezhou, which is dozens of miles away from Jinling.
Shi Cong was dumbfounded.
The brothers of the Jia family, a showman and a white body, within half a year, one from the fifth grade and the other from the fifth grade?
On the cousin's side, he has been on the five-rank palm print for many years, and his qualifications are enough to promote thousands of households, and it is not surprising that he will be promoted to thousands of households, but then he was promoted to the deputy envoy of the four-rank command envoy, which is too terrifying.
As he spoke, Huo Bao led him into a tea room.
It is a temporary hospitality place for the state government.
"Jinling, what's wrong?"
Relatives and friends are all in Jinling, and Shi Cong's concern is chaotic.
"At the end of March, the prefect was changed, and in April, the Jinlingwei commander was changed...... These two are both money-loving, and Jinling has raised taxes every month in the past six months, and the merchants have run a lot of ......"
Shi Cong's face was even more worried, and he couldn't sit still.
Seeing this, Huo Bao was afraid that he would run back impulsively, so he hurriedly said, "If your servants are outside, then it is better to hide for a few more days...... The prefect of Jinling, who left in front of him, only did it to the merchants, but now this prefect is a backer in Beijing, and he has accumulated too much money, and has found excuses to copy several gentry families. ”
This is not to scare Shi Cong, but the real thing.
It was because of this that Jinling City complained.
This prefect used to scrape the ground and squeeze the blood of the merchants and the people, and the gentry had nothing to do with themselves, hanging high, but now the meat is cut from their own bodies, which is really painful.
Shi Cong also understood Huo Bao's meaning.
Those who fled were all troubles.
If he never showed up, there would be nothing.
Even if the family wants to bite the master and kill the officers and soldiers, there is no basis for what they say, and there is no way to prove it.
If Shi Cong goes back, and others take out those family members to sue Shi Cong, even if the evidence is insufficient, just relying on a confession, if you don't die, you will have to fade your skin.
It was also because of this that he did not dare to contact his family, for fear of falling behind and dragging down his relatives.
It's just that......
He looked at Huo Bao with a courteous gaze: "There is a correspondence between the benefactor and Second Brother Jia?" ”
Huo Bao nodded and said, "If you have a letter, you can send it over...... Lingtang mourned in March, and announced to the public that Lingzun had an accident on the river, and a pair of children were missing, and I think I am still waiting for news from your brothers and sisters......"
Shi Cong's eyes were red.
Seeing that the atmosphere was heavy, Huo Bao diverted his words and said, "Fang is just outside...... Are you in trouble? ”
Shi Cong smiled bitterly: "Seeing that I was sitting and eating empty, I thought about trying to take the exam...... But his real name is afraid of future troubles, and he has no account post under his pseudonym, so he hesitates......
Huo Bao has been curious about one thing for a long time.
"I don't know the ...... of Sister Ling's kiss Which one is in Chuzhou? ”
When they fled from Nanshan Village, the Huo family's father and son met Jia Yuan and the Shi family were all related to Chuzhou.
Jia Yuan took his son and nephew to Chuzhou to pay homage to his elders.
Shi Cong's father and son went to Chuzhou to get married, but they encountered the rout of Lingshui, Shi Cong's father died tragically, and Shi Cong fled with killing officers and soldiers.
When Huo Bao arrived in Chuzhou, he inquired that it was Mr. Song who had his birthday in March.
The deceased uncle of Mr. Song and Jia Yuan's brother was the same year, and the wife of Song Erye was Jia Yuan's cousin.
But it's hard to inquire about which one the Shi family's in-laws are.
There are many marriageable teenagers in the seventeenth and eighth grades, and there are also several who delay their marriages due to natural and man-made disasters.
Shi Cong smiled bitterly, and said for a while: "It's the ...... of the Wu family in Chuzhou."
The Chuzhou army's "hoeing" in Chuzhou spread in the city as early as when the Chuzhou army besieged the city.
The evil of the Wu family's father and son is well known in Hezhou.
has been close to such a family, even if it is a former in-law, Shi Cong feels that his face is gloomy.
Huo Bao felt that it was wrong.
As early as before, he thought about whether it would be the Wu family, and specially asked someone to ask about the relatives of Master Wu's grandsons.
The older one has already been married, and it is the official daughter of the uncle who made the decision for the master in office, and for some reason he has not married, and the second grandson is the niece of the former Zhizhou, and the third grandson is a fool.
In March, the Wu family did not have Zhang Luo to marry.
"Is it the second room of the Wu family?"
Shi Cong shook his head and said, "It's the eldest grandson of the long house......"
Huo Bao smiled: "Come to think of it, Ling Zun Lingtang loves his daughter very much, and he should not look down on the ......children of the Wu family's second room."
Shi Cong sneered and said: "It's the two family affairs that my grandfather booked with the Wu family before his death......"
Huo Bao said: "I want to come to Hezhou here The news of the Wu family is not complete, in addition to rape and robbery, he also has a charge of killing his brother, killing his nephew, and embezzlement...... This is the property of the Wu family's house......"
Is it Wu Mo?
Huo Bao had a good impression of Wu Mo.
Huo Wu is in charge, and Niu Qing and Wu Mo's sister have changed their gifts in June.
The wedding is tentatively scheduled for next year.
Shi Cong was shocked: "There is still such a thing? I really can't see that the people who came to Jinling several times to discuss their marriage, and finally finalized the marriage date, it was Wu Erye ......"
If it weren't for the urging of the Wu family, how could their father and son go north directly without inquiring about the situation on Huainan Road?
Huo Bao's eyes narrowed.
Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief.
The second room of the Wu family had a marriage robbery before, and he must have got the sweetness and wanted to do it again.
Especially this daughter of the Shi family, because she is the eldest daughter of this generation, the dowry is very rich.
Huo Bao said what he knew: "The second room of the Wu family robbed the granddaughter of the long house last year to give her granddaughter, and even the dowry was ready-made; I want to get a bargain this time, so I want to come back a second time! It is estimated that the heart is also weak, so there is no fanfare about the wedding banquet, deliberately set it in March, urging you to send your relatives, most of it is deliberate, and you want to take advantage of the chaos to change the groom......"
When the Shi family comes over, they can explain that because of the chaotic situation, it is not easy to deal with it.
is so sneaky, most of them want to tell Shi Cong to the three fools.
Shi Cong "Teng" got up and trembled: "How dare they?" ”
Others don't know that Huainan Road is in chaos, but the Wu family in Chuzhou doesn't know?
They wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make a fortune, but they killed Shi Erye.
Huo Bao said: "I'm also guessing, how to do it, you ask Wu Mo later." ”
Shi Congqian said angrily: "He was raised in the second room, and he is a raccoon dog!" If you send a letter to Jinling to remind you, there will be no follow-up......"
Huo Bao thought about Wu Mo's situation in the second room, and mentioned murder, encroachment, and family exchange, but he didn't mention the family matter of the Shi family.
Most of them don't know.
"The first person to sue the second room of the Wu family is Wu Mo...... There are some things that it is better to make it clear in person, and save misunderstandings......
"Wu Mo is in Hezhou?"
"Well, I'll ask someone to come and talk."
Huo Bao got up and called at the door, and saw Niu Qing standing outside.
"Brother Qing."
"Fifth Uncle heard that you brought the 'old man' in, send me to take a look."
"It's not an outsider, it's Second Master Shi we met on the way to Jinling in March. Brother Qing went to speak first, and I called someone to call Wu Molai. ”
Niu Qing heard it clearly and confused, and entered the house.
Huo Bao had already summoned someone, whispered a few words, and sent him to the camp to call someone.
Now that Wu Mo is not married, and the daughter of the Shi family is not married, this family affair has been delayed for half a year, and it is impossible to say that it will be continued.
For the historians, the daughters have decided to marry in front of them, and they have reached the point of giving them off; Later, he "fell into the river" and disappeared for more than half a year, even if he had his brother by his side, he really wanted to get it on the table, which was also picky, and it was not easy to say a proper family affair again.
For the Wu family, the two brothers and sisters have nothing else to rely on.
Chuzhou over there......
Because Wu Mo first sued Master Wu, it was very controversial.
Although the hatred of killing relatives is not shared, but Master Wu still has the grace of nurturing Wu Mo and his sisters.
People in the world love to talk about "forgiveness," especially to ask for forgiveness from others.
If you can't be a saint yourself, you're more than willing to sanctify others.
He also likes to say that "nurturing grace is greater than giving birth".
As for how to raise it, I didn't go back to pay attention to it.
Two hairy children, who have no father or mother, grow up, and they are kind.
As for not being allowed to go to school, changing family affairs, it is a trivial matter in the eyes of others.
Continuing to have a relationship with the Shi family is not a bad thing for Wu Mo.
You have to say Wu Mo in advance, and stay in front of your brother-in-law in the future.
……
In the tea room, Niu Qing was already talking about the "merits" of Huo Wu's father and son.
He knew the relationship between the Huo family and the Shi family, and he had nothing to hide from Shi Congzi.
It's just that intentionally or unintentionally the paragraph of the third apprentice is omitted.
Now that the Chuzhou army is on top, when it comes to the past, it is basically the same.
No one wants to admit that they are blind and have voted for the wrong person.
The version that Shi Cong heard was that Huo Wu's father and son went north, unsuccessfully searched for their relatives, and reunited with a few brothers in Black Python Mountain, and everyone voted for the White Shirts.
Later, he met Quyang's cousin, got people, and occupied Chuzhou and Binjiang. In the past half month, the Chuzhou army entered Hezhou to suppress bandits, and won Hezhou again.
During this period, it is rare to describe the evil deeds of the government.
The "human wall" in Lingshui County and Chuzhou, and the massacre in Jiashan County, Bozhou a few days ago, are all unbearable to hear.
Shi Cong's blood boiled when he heard it.
He had personally encountered the rebellion of the officers and soldiers, and he had long hated them to death.
On the contrary, for the White Shirts, Xu has always had a good impression of the same enemy.
Otherwise, I wouldn't want to listen to Huo Wu's advice to go to Bozhou, and I wouldn't want to sign up for the exam today.
When Huo Bao came in, Shi Cong immediately got up and said, "Benefactor, can you allow me to join the army?" ”
He was originally a son of the martial arts family, and he had a child's fame, but he was more willing to engage in martial arts.
He thought about it, he followed the Chuzhou army well, and on the Jinling side, he asked the Huo family father and son to send someone to Jinling to bring his mother to Hezhou, and he had no worries.
Huo Bao shook his head and said, "This matter is not in a hurry...... Go back and talk to Uncle Shi about the letter, and then talk about it......"
Shi Jin's attitude has always been unclear, but he has good intentions towards the Huo family's father and son.
It's better to let him choose by himself, and it's not kind to use Shi Cong to pull him into the water here.
Shi Cong was stunned at first, and then he was ashamed and confused.
Forget about cousin.
My cousin is already a fourth-rank official of the imperial court, will he still support him to join the Chuzhou army?
