Chapter 172: Tao Yunke's Letter
Song Wenjian said disapprovingly: "Hmph, if he wants to send it, he will send it, if he doesn't send it, he won't send it, it's nothing." ”
Liang Xing went out, but after a while, he ran in again: "Young master, an official came to look for you." ”
"Official? Is it from our county inspection department? Song Wenjian asked strangely.
Liang Xing shook his head and said, "No, I asked, and he said it was from Leizhou Wei." ”
"Lei Zhouwei?" Song Wenjian let him in.
The person who came was a hundred households in the guard, and he saw Song Wenjian, who did not have the domineering just now. "Song Dianshi, it was Tao Yishi who asked me to come over."
"Oh, you're from Brother Tao?" Song Wenjian deliberately screamed in surprise. "Please take a seat, Lao Liang, and serve the best tea."
This kind of hospitality is also exquisite.
Generally, guests come to serve tea.
Good guests, good tea.
If it's a distinguished guest, serve the best tea.
Liang Xing heard Song Wenjian's instructions, and he must have known what kind of tea to let the maid make.
This time, Song Wenjian did not invite Tao Yunke, but he didn't expect Tao Yunke to send someone to congratulate him.
This friend is really interesting, at that time, Song Wenjian and Tao Yunkora had a relationship, just thinking about taking advantage of it.
Because Tao Yunke is a philistine, this kind of person can only use money to deal with him, and it is difficult to communicate with him.
But now Tao Yunke actually sent someone to congratulate him, and Song Wenjian remembered this feeling.
When the hundred households heard Song Wenjian call Master Tao Yunke Brother Tao, they secretly said in their hearts: Sure enough, Song Wenjian has a relationship with Lord Tao, but fortunately, he didn't have a handle just now.
"Lord Song, don't be polite. It was Master Tao who asked me to send you a letter. Baihu whispered.
"Deliver a letter?" Song Wenjian was stunned for a moment: "Bring it to me." ”
But when Baihu heard Song Wenjian's words, he shook his head and said: "Lord Song, Lord Tao has explained, if you want to read this letter, you will give a hundred taels of silver." ”
"What?" Song Wenjian exclaimed in surprise. "Didn't Brother Tao ask you to come over and congratulate me on moving into my new home?"
"I haven't heard this from Master Tao." Baihe shook his head.
Song Wenjian was a little angry, just now he wanted to say that Tao Yunke was a good person, but he didn't expect that the other party not only didn't congratulate and give gifts, but also asked him to give money.
"Then I won't read this letter, you can go back." Song Wenjian waved his hand.
Baihu said: "Lord Song, Lord Tao said, this letter is related to your net worth and life, and it is not expensive." "What?" Song Wenjian's face changed greatly.
After a while, Song Wenjian took out one hundred taels of silver tickets from his arms and handed them to the hundred households.
Baihu took the silver ticket and also took out a letter from his arms to Song Wenjian.
After that, Baihu said goodbye to Song Wenjian and left.
Song Wenjian opened the letter and was taken aback when he saw the contents inside.
The handwriting of this letter is distorted, and it is estimated that it was written by Tao Yunke, a big old man.
It was written that Yongchang's people came to the Leizhou Guard, found the commander, and said that they suspected that Song Wenjian was related to a rebellion of the people, and asked the Guardhouse to send someone with them to arrest Song Wenjian to the provincial capital for interrogation.
This kind of thing, no matter whether Song Wenjian is a rebel or not, as long as he is arrested, all the connections he has established in Suixi County will be cut off.
And his men, who are either captured or flee, will no longer be able to gather.
And Song Wenjian knew more about the shady scenes in the interrogation organs, which were no better than the so-called judicial fairness in later generations.
As soon as the person was caught, the eight punishments were waiting first.
It doesn't matter if you are wronged or really committed something, let you take off a layer of skin first.
Under such torture, many people could not stand the persecution and confessed everything.
Song Wenjian saw that there were too many unjust cases in the torture room, and some officials wanted to make an errand early, so it didn't matter if you were really guilty or wronged.
If you don't give money to be accommodating, then call until you admit it, and finally hand it over, and you can get a reward for your merit.
Therefore, if Song Wenjian is arrested in the provincial capital, and Yongchanghou wants to harm him again, he will have only one way to die.
Value, this news is worth a hundred taels of silver, and Tao Yunke risked his life to deliver the letter.
The letter also said that the commander of Leizhou Wei had promised Yongchanghou that he would send a thousand people to arrest Song Wenjian, and that he would soon rush to Suixi County.
As the so-called soldiers and horses have not moved, grain and grass go first, and it is estimated that it will take two or three days for the troops to come to Suixi County.
At the end of the letter, Song Wenjian was reminded that after reading it, he must burn the letter.
Song Wenjian lit a fire and burned the letter, and asked people to notify Wu Guanhai and others to come over.
Wu Guanhai and the others came to the study and saw Song Wenjian sitting there with a black face, all of them standing there and not daring to make a sound.
Song Wenjian smiled bitterly and waved everyone to sit down and speak: "Things are really bad." ”
When everyone heard what Song Wenjian said, they were all shocked.
"Young master, let's go to the master and find a way. If you are caught, let the master follow him, with the identity of the imperial history, others will not dare to do anything to him. Zheng Sike said anxiously.
Now Zheng Sike knows that Song Hua's identity as a royal historian is still useful, although he can't be greedy for money, he can maintain justice.
Wu Guanhai shook his head and said, "Even if you let the master pass, it won't work." You don't know the shady scenes of the interrogation in the torture room, if the young master enters it, he will shed his skin if he doesn't die. Especially with Yongchang Hou playing ghosts in the back, I'm afraid that after the young master goes in, he won't be able to come back alive. ”
Now that human life is not valuable, Yongchanghou can find a dead ghost to kill Song Wenjian at any time.
Even if you have to investigate in the end, it's a big deal to find a bad person to answer the guilt.
As long as you can afford to pay for it, there will be many people who would rather die for you, let alone the culmination sin.
"Brother Guanhai, what should we do now?" Zheng Sike said anxiously.
"Young master, you can't let them catch it." Wu Guanhai gritted his teeth and said, "It's a big deal, you go back to Yangqing Township and hide." ”
Dai Wang also echoed: "Yes, Yangqing Township is our territory, and it is not so easy for them to arrest you there." ”
Song Wenjian smiled bitterly and said, "If I escape, wouldn't I be guilty of colluding with the rioters?" ”
"This ......" Wu Guanhai and the others were speechless.
Song Wenjian said: "What you said is the next step, I'll find a way to deal with this matter." ”
"Young Master, do you want to beat Zhu Gongzi's idea?" Wu Guanhai's heart moved.
Song Wenjian said: "Whether it works or not, I have to try it tonight to see if I can ask Zhu Gongzi's origin." In addition, we also have to make another preparation, if it doesn't work, I will go back to Yangqing Township. ”
This is Song Wenjian's back road, he has secretly purchased a house in Yangqing Township, and outsiders don't know that the house is his.
When the time comes, he will be hiding inside, and he will be able to live for a while.
"Yes, young master, let's go with you." Wu Guanhai and the others shouted.
But Song Wenjian shook his head when he heard it and said, "No, you still have to stay in the yamen to be my eyeliner." But if I leave, you may be demoted and become ordinary officials, so be prepared for that. ”
