Chapter 202: The House of Virtue
Du Laoba had no objection and agreed with a smile.
If you have something to do, it's just a waste of snacks, but it's not good to eat and drink with your brothers.
β¦β¦
On September 27, the political envoy Yamen and the Jinling Prefect's Yamen finally posted a notice.
First, the city wall will be repaired on the first day of October, and the people and businesses along the way need to cooperate.
Second, Jinling Mansion will be exempted from military service this winter.
Thirdly, on the tenth day of October, the official examination will be held in the school of the government, and children and above will register, and those who have passed the mathematics can obtain the qualification by pre-examination.
The big seal signed by the notice is "Taiwei Huo's Seal"
The gentry of Jinling were still pondering what was going on, and the political envoy yamen had already changed the signboard and hung up the plaque of "Taiwei's Mansion".
On the side of the yamen of the Jinling prefect's mansion, the door that had been closed for several days was also open and began to work.
Marshal Huo of the Chuzhou Army has opened his mansion!
Jinling has a new prefect!
But what do those three notices mean?
Build a wall?
This is to be expected.
The Chuzhou army captured Jinling, but did not occupy the entire south of the Yangtze River.
The defenders of Jiangnan West Province were transferred by the imperial court to encircle and suppress Qichun, and half of the defenders of Jiangnan East Province were transferred to Hangzhou and half in Suzhou.
It is Yangzhou across the river, and there are 60,000 or 70,000 Huainan Road defenders.
If the city wall is not repaired, and when the imperial court transfers troops to quell the rebellion, the Chuzhou army will have no barrier.
Can you do it without servitude?
Isn't it when you borrow money to extort money?
When the time comes, when the people have no money to pay for their servants, they will go to work; The gentry and merchants gave money to the top of the service.
Isn't it supposed to be that way?
Don't smoke?
Is the repair of the city wall fake?
Do you want to use this to clean up the merchants along the wall?
And the clerk exam?
All children are eligible to sign up!
In the land of Jiangnan Wenxing, every family has scholars, and there are more than a few people who have children's fame.
Lack of officials, isn't it time to show favor to the gentry of Jinling?
It's okay to buy it with silver, why did the Chuzhou army change its style again?
The city gates are closed these days, but there is no martial law in the city.
Every family is inquiring in private, just to find out the style of the Chuzhou army.
As a result, all I heard was that the Chuzhou army treated the gentry well.
Occasionally, a few families are disobedient, and they are killed by themselves, so there is no need to blame the Chuzhou army for "killing chickens and monkeys".
Those who know the times are Junjie, and many people have the same idea as the Jia family, and those who want to "break the fortune and avoid disasters" can take advantage of this to "go further", of course, it is better.
But what does this Huo Taiwei mean?
didn't ask for money under the pretext of repairing the city wall, so how can this filial piety be given?
The door of the Taiwei Mansion is high, and there is no recommendation, and no one dares to take the liberty of coming to the door.
On the side of the prefect's yamen, as soon as the identity of the new prefect was spread, it welcomed many guests.
β¦β¦
Song Lin already had in-laws in Jinling, and he also studied in Jinling in the past, so there were many people who could be involved with him.
It's just that Zhishi was a third-grade Xiao Jiuqing before, and now he is a parent official in Jinling, and Song Lin has his own prestige.
Even if someone wants to inquire through old feelings, they are polite.
"Brother Song, when will Taiwei Huo meet the local elders?"
This is a former classmate or Shilin friend, who is similar in age to Song Lin, and they are all over the age of sixties, and they are among the "local elders".
"Uncle Song, is the threshold for the official test too low? There are thousands of talents in Jinling, and there are hundreds of people, where is the turn to get a child? β
This is an in-law and a son-in-law, studying for a career, and wants to take the opportunity to show his ambitions.
"Lord Song, we have admired Mrs. Huo for a long time, I wonder if I can bother Lord Song to introduce us and others?"
This is a Jinling official who is an official or a Zhishi, and he is moved by Song Lin's situation.
In any case, all everyone thinks about is clinging.
Song Lin's heart was very subtle.
I don't know if I should be happy for the Chuzhou army or sad for the court.
In the hearts of readers, who doesn't remember the words "loyal to the monarch and patriotic"?
It's just that there are too many bodies that can't help themselves.
Disappointment with the imperial court.
Consideration for the children and grandchildren of the family.
There was also a worry about Master Lin, so he quickly voted for the White Shirts.
If he has no worries, he prefers to live in seclusion.
Who in this world has no concern, who is like this, what qualifications do they have to despise others?
Song Lin thought of his own family, and his mentality calmed down for all the people who came to investigate: "I want to see the gentry and the elderly, but it will be arranged after the officials test!" β
When everyone heard this, they were stunned.
Don't let everyone meet the leader of the Chuzhou Army, how do you know if the Chuzhou Army can vote or not, and whether it is reliable?
I'm not sure that I think the Chuzhou army can take refuge, how can I be willing to arrange for my children to go out?
A gentleman hesitated: "I heard some words yesterday, and I don't know if it was a false rumor?" β
"Oh? What words? Song Lin said.
"That's it...... What's that...... 'friend or foe' or something......"
"This is true, it is indeed the words of the captain himself!"
ββ¦β¦β
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Everyone is a figure with a head and a face, and this kind of coercion is uncomfortable.
Song Lin looked around at everyone and said softly: "'The county order that broke the family, and the mansion Yin who destroyed the door'...... Those who remember this should be able to be safe! β
Why do you think you are qualified to talk to the Chuzhou army?
Isn't it contempt in the bones!
Before the prefect of Jinling plagued Jinling for half a year, no one dared to oppose it.
No matter how ruthless the scolding behind his back is, he is still obedient on his face.
That's just the prefect.
The crowd sneered.
Song Lin served tea to send off guests......
The Wu family is a lesson from the past, and I just hope that these people really have self-knowledge.
*
The gentry of Jinling were uneasy, but the Chuzhou army entered a stable stage.
Li Yao was summoned back.
Before officially going to Luzhou, he had to go to Bozhou again to make Huo Wu's identity as a "captain" clear.
The leader of the Chuzhou Army began to take a vacation.
Since the departure of Chuzhou on August 16, everyone has been busy for a month and a half, traveling 500 miles, and it is really hard work, and it is time to breathe a sigh of relief.
Even the Chuzhou Army, which arrived in Jinling one after another, also began to take turns to rest.
β¦β¦
Taiwei Mansion, Inner Courtyard.
Huo Wu also held a family banquet to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Uncle Huo, Aunt Huo Liujiao and others.
Uncle Huo was extremely happy.
My cousin got the big city of Jinling, and finally had a stable territory.
And then there's the future of the stone.
After Huo Wu discussed with Yu Dutong, he arranged for Shi to follow Yu Dutong and learn about the water master from the old Dutong.
Aunt Huo was also happy.
In this world, it is a good thing that everyone is reunited and safe.
Scattered in a few places before, it makes people panic when they think about it.
It's just right now.
Also came the second grandfather Huo and Huo Lin's grandson.
Although the previous handling of Huo Man's family made Second Master Huo frightened, he also knew that now was not the time to be hypocritical.
Due to his previous mistakes, Huo Lin stopped at Binjiang, which also alerted Second Master Huo.
He saw Huo Wu's rules for employing people, and he was obedient and dedicated.
The so-called kinship relationship can only be "icing on the cake", and it is not the reliance of the Huo clan.
Even if he is an uncle and grandfather, he doesn't dare to hold a shelf anymore.
Huo Jia......
How far he can go in the future, the old man is a little afraid to think......
The tribe that moved to Jinling before, Huo Wu also asked someone to invite over.
This master is a water character generation, called Huo Hong, a famous person, similar to Huo Wu's five years old, from Huo Wu, it is the blood of Gaozu, and it is the clan uncle in Wufu.
Counting from Huo Bao's side, this one is out of five suits.
Hohon has two sons and a daughter.
The eldest son, Huo Song, is about the same age as Huo Lin, has been married for many years, and the husband and wife died during the epidemic last year, leaving a son Huo Rui and a daughter Huo Zhen.
The second son, Huo Baixi, has not yet married a wife and is studying at Jinling Academy.
The eldest daughter, Huo Chun, is the same as Huo Bao, and she is in the boudoir.
Compared with Huo Man's family, this family is extremely measured.
Before, after Huo Hong knew that Huo Wu occupied Binjiang, he sent his second son back to recognize his relatives and walk around, and the relationship between the two families was also moving.
This time Huo Wu arrived in Jinling, and it was nothing for their family to take the initiative to come up.
However, the family kept to themselves and did not take the initiative to come to the door.
There are people who are close to each other, remembering that they are also the Huo family in Binjiang, and they also prevaricate when they come to inquire about the news.
Huo Wuzao was stared at, and he was very satisfied.
Not only is the current head of the family, Huo Hong, an understanding person, but his son Huo Bai's character is respectable.
He is nineteen years old, and he has a talent and fame, so he should have made a family appointment a long time ago.
In fact, it is.
He married a gentleman in Binjiang, and he was the in-law of the older generation.
Both of them are cultivators, and they can be regarded as door-to-door pairs.
If it weren't for his brother's filial piety for a year, he would have been married.
didn't want to wait for Huo Bai's brother to die, and the other party paid attention to the distribution of the Huo family's property.
According to the law of the imperial court, the family property is divided equally among the sons.
But because the ancestral property, ancestral house, and sacrificial field are not included in the family, it is actually more than seven or three points.
seventy percent of the eldest son, and three percent of the other sons-in-law; If there is a concubine, it shall be divided according to half of the concubine; The bloodline of the outer room is unknown, and it is not distinguished.
The Huo family is not only the old surname of Binjiang, but Huo Hong is still a person, and his family background is not thin.
According to the idea of the in-laws, the son of the Huo family died of illness, and only one son remained, so there is no need to divide the family property?
After all, this Huo family is old and small, and the pillar is Huo Bai.
The two nephews and nieces who did not become adults were raised under the name of their uncle.
They are afraid of the future ruffle, so they want to finalize the matter before the girl enters the door.
They were very justified and felt that they were in charge of their uncle.
When the meaning came out, Huo Hong had not yet expressed his position, and Huo Bai was annoyed.
Even questioned the character of the fiancΓ©e.
What kind of heart will a daughter raised by such greedy parents have?
People don't think about their family property before they enter the door, and they can still have a peaceful birthday after they really marry in?
My father is getting old, my two nephews and nieces are young, what should I do if I am bullied?
It's better not to marry than to get married in the end.
Hopper was very happy, and immediately invited the original matchmaker to withdraw from his family.
The reasons are all ready-made, keep the brother and filial piety, and dare not delay the other party's prosperity.
The family was definitely not happy, knowing that the Huo family was annoyed by the previous matter, they said that they could wait.
Hopper said that "the eldest brother is like a father", and he should keep it for three years and shut the other party's mouth.
The other party's daughter is already sixteen years old, and she doesn't dare to really drag it out to her twenties.
In the end, the two families tore their faces and withdrew from their relatives.
It's just that the other party is not reconciled, and there are many children in the clan, and there is no shortage of ruffians and scoundrels.
Here in the Huo family, there have been many incidents.
In order to protect his children and grandchildren, Huo Hong happened to have a letter from an old friend inviting him to teach at Jinling Academy, so he moved his family to Jinling.
Huo Wu is a man of temperament, and he loves Huo Bai's character.
With such a character as an elder, the rest of Huo Chun, Huo Rui, and Huo Zhen's aunts and nephews can't see anything, but they can't be far behind......
