Chapter 110: A chess piece shook Jiang Bi
The White Water Dock is indeed a beautiful place, and every place seems to be unremarkable along the way, but there is always a unique ingenuity everywhere, and there are always some details that can catch the eye.
Li Mi still felt good luck at the beginning, and as soon as he came, he met Jiang Taiyi, the father of Jiang Bi in Lao Zhi County, but when he walked inside, he found that there were not many slaves and maids in the huge grange, and there was only Jiang Taiyi such an idle character, who was wandering all day long, and he was the only one who could meet.
Although Jiang Taiyi's words and deeds are strange, he can feel that this is an old man with a true temperament, as if he has come over so vaguely in his life.
This old man said that he was looking around, and he took Li Mi around, and then he ate with Li Mi, which can be regarded as Mo Xiao's farmhouse wine muddy, and the guests in the harvest year are full of chickens and dolphins, the main dish is the fish caught, the chickens and ducks raised by themselves, the wild vegetables picked from the field, the hot dishes and fragrant wine are sweet, and the old man is interesting to talk about, and it is really comfortable.
Jiang Taiyi was also bored, so he asked Li Mi about some of his experiences, Li Mi was only on a serious errand for three or four days, where were there any interesting things, and the cases he investigated couldn't talk to this old man, so he had to pick out some interesting things in the future to talk about.
Although that old man has a forgiving personality, he is an old antique in the end, and he can't quite accept Li Mi's statements, so he just shook his head vigorously, and then he didn't ask.
After eating a meal, before nightfall, he took Li Mi to see his son, along the way, Jiang Taiyi was also nagging, saying how his son was in the past, and what is happening now, Li Mi didn't know why, until he saw this Jiang Bi, he was a little surprised and surprised.
Although it is said to be an old magistrate, this old word originally only meant that he used to be the magistrate of Jiading, in fact, he was only in his thirties.
However, this Jiang Bi is like his old man at this time, old and old, like a white-haired ghost, which is really scary!
He trapped himself in the study, the whole room had almost no place to intervene, all kinds of books and even bamboo slips, all over the floor, the four walls were nailed with dense codexes and images, etc., this Jiang Bi was in the room full of sweat, searching everywhere for something, muttering to himself, like crazy.
Regarding the arrival of Li Mi and his own Lao Tzu, Jiang Bi didn't seem to be aware of it, and still went his own way, and at this time, Li Mi finally understood what Jiang Taiyi said about entering the demon.
Jiang Taiyi seemed to be used to it, and he didn't need to deliberately lower his voice, and said to Li Mi with a big grin: "Has the old father ever deceived you, this unfilial son has become like this, you have a big business, how can you expect him to be in case?" ”
Li Mi also sighed lightly in his heart, but he was curious, so he walked into the study, and the tomes at his feet were all historical materials of all dynasties, as well as local chronicles and geographical chronicles in various places, and there were many handwritten essays written by savages.
Li Micai took two steps, and his face became a little solemn, because he found that most of the contents of the contents were inseparable from the Three Kingdoms of Shu and Han!
And the information on the four walls that are nailed or hung all point to one person, that is Zhou Yu, the Metropolitan Governor!
In fact, Li Mi should have thought that this Jiang Bi was humiliated by Zhou Yu, so he resigned from the county magistrate in embarrassment, and became a joke in the officialdom, and in the end he became a footnote to Zhou Yu's demeanor.
As the little official said, if anyone in the entire Jiading County knows the name and identity of the white-clothed scholar, there is only this old county magistrate Jiang Bi.
It's just that no one thought that this man who was only in his thirties would spend the rest of his life investigating Zhou Yu's origins.
Jiang Taiyi was also heartbroken, seeing that Li Mi was silent, thinking that Li Mi was disappointed, so he said to Li Mi.
"Don't care about this unfilial son who doesn't grow up, there are sour rot and damp molds of books everywhere, and it's not very easy to play, it's better to go out with the old man and drink two more glasses of wine."
Li Mi also said sincerely: "Lord Jiang, this is a heart disease..."
Jiang Taiyi also sighed and said: "Isn't it, the old man has been widowed for decades, and he would rather read books than continue the strings, let alone take a concubine, just to cultivate this unfilial son, it is rare for him to win the first, I wanted to shine on the lintel, who knew that he fell into such a madness, if he can cure this unfilial son, the old man is willing not to want this hundred acres of grange, I only hope that he can say a few words to me sooner or later..."
As soon as Jiang Tai talked about his son, his eyes were a little moist, the more cynical people are, once they get serious, the easier it will be to move people, Li Mi is also moved in his heart, and at this time he will go to Jiang Tai.
"Don't hide it from the elder brother, Ling Lang's heart disease, maybe I can cure the younger brother, although it may not be cured, but I can still let him speak."
As soon as Jiang Taiyi heard Li Mi's words, his eyes couldn't help but light up, but he quickly dimmed and said to Li Mi.
"It's also useless, the famous doctors in the ten miles and eight towns in Hengzhu and even in Suzhou, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the old man has already invited a round, what magic can you have?"
Li Mi didn't speak, but walked in front of Jiang Bi, took out the white seed from his arms, and gently put it on the table.
"Smack!"
When the white son settled, it was like the end of the chess game, this crisp sound fell into his ears, Jiang Bi was like being struck by lightning, trembling all over, then turned his head suddenly, staring at the white child, and then trembling his hands, touched a handful in his arms, spread out his palm, and there was a sunspot inside!
Jiang Bi put the sunspot next to the white son inside, and then looked at Li Mi deeply.
"Is he the self-proclaimed Metropolitan Governor of Zhou Yu?" Li Mi also looked at Jiang Bi, his eyes were full of sympathy and understanding, as if he could understand the torture that Jiang Bi had suffered in the past three years.
This is Li Mi's sincerity from the bottom of his heart, because he was also played and manipulated by Zhou Yu, and he was clearly born between heaven and earth, but he became someone else's chess piece, and fate made people feel controlled in their hands.
Jiang Bi looked at these two chess pieces in a daze, as if time was frozen in the present, and I don't know how long it took, the man who was trembling all over his body actually pounced on Li Mi, and cried out with a wow!
This cry also touched Jiang Taiyi, as if his child was crying when he was born, as if his own child was reborn again.
Jiang Taiyi also cried on the side, crying, Li Mi gently pushed Jiang Bi away, and the latter also realized that he was out of shape, but the three years of depression in Hengzhi's heart finally came out, and everyone thought he was crazy, and he finally met Li Mi, because Li Mi knew that he was not crazy, he was struggling to find out that there was indeed something to do, and there was indeed someone!
It was the appearance of Li Mi that made his investigation real, valuable, and worthless!
Jiang Bi returned to normal, but Jiang Taiyi was still wiping his tears, Li Mi couldn't help but glance at him, and asked him, "Brother, why are you crying?" ”
Jiang Taiyi glanced at his son, and then said without scruples: "My son, you are bitter daddy and me, I knew that you like men, and it is no wonder that you are a father, you can rest assured, your father is not an ordinary man, the ancients often liked men, and it was written in the book, how can you ignore it as a father?" ”
When Li Mi heard this, his face twitched, this old man's heart is too big, although it is indeed a little weird and awkward for two big men to hug their heads and cry, but they will not be misunderstood as so unbearable, right?
Jiang Bi understood his father's temperament, and knew that his father was deliberately joking, so he also said jokingly at this time.
"I knew that you were so reasonable, why did I marry a wife and take a concubine to have a son..."
It's been three years, since he beat his son and resigned in embarrassment, the family has stopped laughing, his son has been silent all day, and he has never heard his son laugh like this again.
After the death of his wife, he did not renew the strings, let alone take a concubine, he accompanied his son to study in the day, often said some crazy words, and joked with his son without taboo, which is really rare in the scholarly sect with strict etiquette.
But after his son suffered a setback, he never joked like this again, and now he sees his son with gray hair, but he is telling the joke of three years ago, Mrs. Jiang is so excited and emotional!
Jiang Bi has suffered in the past three years, why hasn't Jiang Taiyi suffered alive?
I thought that Li Mi was just an ordinary tolerance catcher, but who knew that he was not only so interesting, but like him, an old man, he loved to read a lot of miscellaneous books, not to mention, he could really cure his son's heart disease!
He is a man who regards his son as the meat of his heart, and naturally knows what his son is for, if he does not have the support of his old father, where does the son's room full of classics come from?
So he also knows very well what his son is investigating, but he has been unable to do anything, but now it seems that the official matter that Li Mi said is what his son has been trying to investigate!
This kind of stakes add up, Jiang Taiyi's attitude towards Li Mi is completely different, if he only thought that this young man was interesting and fun earlier, now he will be even more impressed!
Li Mi looked at the room full of information, and then said to Jiang Bi: "Lord Jiang, we have to have a good chat..."
Jiang Bi's eyes were also hot, and he said excitedly: "Yes, it's time to have a good chat!" ”
As soon as Mrs. Jiang heard this, she said on the side: "I'll let my subordinates prepare some food and drink, it's not too late for you to talk slowly, the little brother Li Mi and I have an appointment first, and I want to stay for a few days, and now it seems that it is to live for a long time, and the old man is also happy, hahaha!" ”
As soon as Jiang Taiyi said this, he didn't wait for Li Mi to respond, so he walked out of the room and greeted all the slaves and maids, as if he was celebrating the New Year.
Seeing this, Li Mi in the room also said to Jiang Bi: "Lord Jiang, you have a good father..."
Jiang Bi also looked at the slightly old but naughty back of a naughty child, and replied gratefully.
"Who's to say it's not..."
Seeing him like this, Li Mi was afraid that he would be sad again, so he hurriedly said to him: "Lord Jiang, why don't we talk about this Zhou Yu Metropolitan Governor first, exchange the situation we know, maybe there will be new discoveries..."
When Jiang Bi heard this, he frowned, shook his head and said, "No, if you want to investigate this person, the first thing is to change." ”
"Change? What's changed? ”
"Change the title, although this person claims to be the governor of Zhou Yu, but I know that he is not Zhou Yu, his name is Wang Zuo!"
As soon as Jiang Bi's words came out, Li Mi couldn't help but be shocked!
