Chapter 3 Serial Poison Scheme
Fang Facebook was slightly surprised in his heart, the original Yu Lang was a demon king of the mixed world who couldn't penetrate the needle and couldn't splash oil, although he took advantage of the time and place this time, he still felt that it was too easy to win, and even doubted that Yu Lang didn't have some kind of retreat as a retreat.
Yu Lang was just silent.
The scholar raised his head and shouted, "Master Yu, are you listening?" Your grandson has confessed! Are we going to the government or what do we say? ”
A feathered arrow shot out, extinguished two torches, and then did not enter the beam, and still trembled. Old Man Yu walked out slowly with a bow, his steps were not hurried, and he was not angry.
In the face of this majestic old man, everyone lost their aggressive momentum.
Yu Lang just wanted to speak, but was slapped in the face by Yu Chaoran: "Waste! You can't stand the old man wearing clothes and taking the bow! ”
Fang Facebook's forehead was sweating, as if this slap had also slapped him in the face, and said in his heart: This old thing is a difficult bone to gnaw, and it will not end well if he wants to admit this account for his grandson.
Unexpectedly, Yu Chaoran took out a delicate Nanmu box: "This contains my Yu family's five shops in Yangzhou City and the title deed of this house, and the fifty acres of land in the east of the city also belong to your Li family, Wenshan Xian's nephew, is this matter over?" ”
Li Wenshan's face was still a little angry, it was completely irrepressible ecstasy, his face was flushed, like a gambler who made a lot of money in a casino: "Chaoran is just and righteous, this matter is over, it's over!" ”
"How did Sister Ling die?" Yu Chaoran asked lightly.
"She doesn't want to marry Xiao Yuxian's nephew and kill herself, hey, she doesn't have this blessing." Li Wenshan replied nonchalantly, and after speaking, he spat at the corpse, "Something that has no women's virtue!" ”
It wasn't until this moment that Yu Lang came back to his senses, if this Li Wenshan really wanted justice for his sister-in-law, he could go to the government to report the case, he wanted to make money from the beginning, but he didn't expect Yu Chaoran to be so generous and lose the entire family business. Thinking of the so-called serious illness before him, I am afraid that it was the Li family who poisoned the wedding banquet.
They want to poison our husband and wife, and Yu Chaoran is an old bachelor, and this family business can only belong to the Li family in the end. I wasn't poisoned, and the Li family was the wicked who sued first, but slandered me for poisoning my wife, this serial plan is really vicious. Thinking of this, Yu Lang couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
The grandfather and grandson simply packed their luggage and were about to leave the mansion in Jixianli.
Before leaving, Yu Lang suddenly turned back.
Yu Chaoran asked: "What's the matter, I can't bear to be rich this time?" If you don't have the responsibility to defend wealth, you don't have the right to have it! With your soft egg appearance, leaving your family business to you will only bring you death! ”
Yu Lang didn't answer, his expression was sad, he slowly knelt down in front of the female corpse on the ground that no one cared about, and solemnly kowtowed: "May you be born in a good family in the next life." ”
This kneeling can be regarded as breaking the front edge.
Yu Chaoran sneered: "Aren't you amnesia, I'm afraid you don't even know what this girl's name is, right?" Why bother. ”
Yu Lang got up slowly: "Even if it's a strange woman, isn't it worthy of sympathy to be used by her family like this?" I don't remember her, but I must have had a deep affection for her, and when they brought out the body, I was half terrified, half discouraged, unable to restrain my emotions. ”
When he saw the woman's corpse, the remaining consciousness of the other remnant of the wave was completely lost, and he desperately confessed his guilt, just bent on dying to die for this feeling. I kneel, not only for this woman, but also for Datang, a lazy young man who was once known as Yu Lang, because of my intrusion, your originally wonderful life came to an abrupt end, you must be very unwilling.
As soon as he thought of this, Yu Lang's eyes were slightly red, and he clenched his fists: "This justice, I will definitely get it back for you!" ”
Although the Tang Dynasty is in its heyday, it is still not uncommon to bully men and women into the weak, not to mention that ten years later, the Anshi Rebellion was turbulent in the world, and Yu Lang silently made up his mind to work hard to improve his strength and status, and seek stability in this troubled era. He knew that the crossing was no accident, and now he was too weak, too weak to be qualified to explore the truth, and could only be a pawn.
After Yu Chaoran knew the inside story, he didn't see Fang Cai's cold appearance, patted Yu Lang's immature shoulder and said comfortingly: "It's nothing to lose something, what I'm afraid of is that I don't have the courage to get it back!" But you are still too weak at the moment, don't be impulsive, you must know that the Li family dares to do this, it is someone in the court. Even if we can get away with it this time, we won't be able to escape next time, so I just give up that trouble. ”
The grandparents and grandchildren have experienced such a play, and the relationship has become a little closer, more like a pair of intimate New Year's friends.
Although the Yu family is not a famous family in Yangzhou City, they were once a wealthy family, but Yu Chaoran has a proud temperament, never disdains to interact with the powerful, and is unwilling to ventilate with other merchants The money of the common people, fell into the name of "Yu Duhuo", and gradually lost his friends after coming and going. Fortunately, although Yu Chaoran was angry and unwilling to take a copper coin from the mansion at that time, Yu Lang still hid twenty taels of silver in his arms.
The main currency in circulation nowadays is a square-hole copper coin called "Kaiyuan Tongbao" - called "Kaiyuan Tongbao", but it was not actually minted in the Kaiyuan period, but was minted and issued by Li Yuan in the Wude period. As a precious metal, silver is still relatively rare in the market, and there is little private circulation, mainly for the settlement of bulk goods. Yu Lang calculated, according to the price of eight Kaiyuan Tongbao can buy a bucket of rice, which is converted into a copper coin can buy about one and a half catties of rice, one or two ordinary silver can be exchanged for a thousand yuan, and the purchasing power of twenty taels of silver is almost equivalent to 60,000 yuan in modern times.
The two temporarily found an inn to settle down for a few days, and then bought a room in Ping'an to settle down. Ping'an Li is located in the civilian area of the city, and Yu Lang bought not a mansion, just a few tiled houses that are quite spacious, but despite this, he still paid ten taels of silver.
Seeing a large ingot of silver cut in half, Yu Lang felt quite painful.
Yu Lang sat in the newly cleaned up study, biting the pen and pondering, thinking about the way out in the future, the first step should be to find Ning Xue who led him here. If you want to find Ning Xue, you have to put yourself in a more conspicuous position first, otherwise it is pointless to look for a needle in a haystack. And if you want to make a name for yourself in this era, there are roughly three ways, one is to study and enter the army, the second is to enlist in the army, and the third is to get rich in business. As a traverser, no matter which path you choose, you have a natural advantage, and you have many poems in the middle and late Tang Dynasty in your mind to take the lead, which can give the examiner a good impression; When you enlist in the army, you can first go to Guo Ziyi and others, who are still not famous at this time, and make immortal achievements in the future; Business...... In fact, doing business can also be tricky, but it is difficult to make a name for yourself when you lack resources in the early stage.
After thinking about it for a while, Yu Lang's sharpness has worn off a little, and it is not easy to study these three ways out. What's more, the imperial examination system in the Tang Dynasty was neither perfect nor fair, and the examiners did not mark the papers, and most of them were biased towards the children of the family when they took the scholars. There are no resources in business, and there is no martial arts in the army, hey, it's difficult.
"Lang'er, come out to greet the guests." Yu Chaoran's drunken shouting interrupted Yu Lang's thinking.
Yu Lang came out lazily with a robe, glanced at the two people in the room who were drunk and crying, and hurriedly went to fetch the boiling water on the stove and brewed the soup for the two of them.
The person who drank with Yu Chaoran was a rather dashing-looking scholar, with a sword and a wine jug tied to his waist, about thirty years old.
The scholar suddenly slapped the table and recited loudly: "I love Master Meng, and the world has heard of it!" The red face abandons the Xuan crown, and the white head lies on the pine cloud.
The drunken moon is often in the saint, and the flowers are not a thing. The high mountains are safe and up, and they are in vain. ”
After reading the poem, I burst into tears.
The bowl in Yu Lang's hand fell to the ground, shattered into three petals, and the hangover soup was scattered on the ground, and his voice trembled slightly: "Li, Li Taibai? ”
Yes, this year is the 28th year of Kaiyuan, Li Bai Kaichun went to Yangzhou, and his friend Meng Haoran also died that year, this poem was written to commemorate Meng Haoran.
Where love goes, the export becomes a poem, and only the poet Li Baifang has such a talent in the world.
