This chapter is a full 300 collection of additions.,It's not easy...... Thank you for the ironcore of the book friend Camby, the Qingxuan Sanren, and the reward from the farm by the sea!
Cheng, who is only a few miles away from the township temple, is indeed decorated with some sketches at this time and is organizing the funeral. The Cheng family didn't lie, one of their branch uncles happened to die yesterday, but this funeral was really important to the point that even the new township lord and the little gentleman of the Zhao family had to be absent?
Not really.
For example, in the side room of the mourning hall, the three elders of the township Cheng Weng, the township Situ Cheng Uncle, and the township Sima Cheng Ji did not have much sadness on their faces. The old and young sat on the side of the desk, ignoring the funeral etiquette system of not drinking together, and staggered to celebrate today's first "victory" against the gentleman.
The third old man is dying, he is the old minister of the Wenzi era of the head of the Zhao family in the previous generation, although he was originally just a vertical person who drowned the pot, and there was no meritorious service, but he was stunned to accumulate qualifications and mixed into a "doctor". That is to say, although his identity is still a sergeant, he is treated as a doctor by Zhao Ying, and he can be buried with the doctor-level Ding Gui after his death.
But after all, he is not a real doctor, Cheng Weng did not get a fief, and returned to Chengyi after old age and decay, so he simply gave up the position of township leader to the young and promising eldest son Cheng He, and became a respected township elder, thinking that he would completely retire after a few more years of residual heat for the Cheng family.
Now he gathers his people together for a funeral, but it's just a pretext.
Because Cheng He became a gentleman Zhongxin Yurong, Cheng Weng has always classified his family into Zhongxin's camp, and he naturally repelled the gentleman who had just arrived and robbed the position of the head of the Cheng family. What's more, Junzi Wuxian also smoked his eldest son Cheng He on the winter hunt some time ago.
The master beats the servant, and he should be beaten. Cheng Weng couldn't say anything about this, but since he had no mercy on their territory, he took a non-cooperative attitude by taking the lead and letting the young gentleman eat and choke as revenge.
He did this, although he risked offending Wuxian, but he made a sufficient gesture to show the gentleman Zhongxin who had already served him: You see, the Cheng family is not anti-water, and he is still your person.
The punishment is not a doctor, this is the rule, Cheng Weng expected, even if the gentleman is unsympathetic, he will not dare to openly do anything to his own family.
The strong dragon can't overpower the ground snake!
However, he was still a little apprehensive in his heart, because the rumors of this gentleman's unsympathy have been a bit magical recently, and he is a hunting and auspicious luck, and he is a musician who exports chapters......
However, after Zhao Wuxian's attendant Yu Xi came to attend the funeral, presented silk coins, and handed over the prayer post, the three elders' hanging hearts finally let go.
A gentleman has no mercy, but that's it.
His youngest son, Sima Chengji, a smug townshipman, thought like this.
"Father, that gentleman is really a yellow-mouthed child, timid and afraid, I really don't know how he dares to humiliate his brother, but I will find a place for my brother today! Hahaha! ”
Uncle Xiangsi Cheng said with some concern: "Ah Weng, but after all, he is the gentleman of the Zhao family and the master, why should we offend him too much for the matter of the Zhao family's succession, in case we accidentally put the Cheng family in......"
Cheng Weng, the third elder of the township, took a sip of sobering water and said: "It's okay, looking at his appearance today, I'm afraid that as Tong Ah He said, his status is low, his foundation is unstable, and he doesn't dare to openly confront us." Anyway, since he is soft, we don't have to embarrass him too much, after all, he is the master of the Zhao family, and everyone is embarrassed. Let him get together here for a year, be a comfortable townsman with no real power, and naturally leave after a year. ”
He sighed and said, "Only in this way, on the side of Junzi Zhongxin, can we explain the past." ”
Township Sima Chengji said hatefully: "Originally, it was good to unify the whole township, but the son Chengwu quietly came back yesterday, and teamed up with Dou Pengzu's dead fat man to do another set, and when the uncle's funeral was over, the son went to the place where they were to clean them up." ”
Cheng Weng bowed: "But, I want them to know who Chengyi has the final say!" ”
After discussing it properly, Xiang Sima asked again: "Uncle usually likes a little maid to serve his daily life, and he also likes a little boy with dogs, and before he died, he instructed them to be buried, father, do you think it's okay?" ”
Although there has been condemnation in the world for hundreds of years, it is a tradition that has lasted for thousands of years. Duke Qi Huan, Duke Qin Mugong and other well-known monarchs were martyred, and the number of them was hundreds or thousands, and with them taking the lead, the scholars naturally dared to ignore public opinion and go their own way.
It's just two concubines, and it's not even as good as dogs and horses, if you kill it, you will kill it, so what's it?
By the way, I don't know what the situation is in the township, why hasn't the eyeliner that my family arranged to spy on there come back yet?
At this moment, the door of the side room was pushed open, and a Cheng's soap ran in in a panic, and tripped and fell, knocking out a nosebleed, and he didn't care about wiping it, so he hurriedly crawled over and said: "Three elders, it's amazing, it's amazing!" ”
Cheng Weng frowned, and Xiang Sima Cheng Ji reprimanded Soap Li and said: "What kind of system!" What the hell is going on, tell me quickly. ”
"It's a gentleman without compassion......"
"What's wrong with the gentleman without shirts?"
He ...... He showed the flag, took the Zhao soldiers in the lower palace to wear armor and lead the soldiers, and entered the township temple with great momentum, driving out all our people! ”
"Ahh
Uncle Cheng, the township situ, was a little flustered, but the well-informed three elders Cheng Weng was still calm: "What's this, he is a young man with thin skin, and the Cheng family made him suffocated, he didn't dare to be our enemy, so he could only show favor in secret, but on the bright side, he had to make his voice bigger, so that the villagers would not despise him." ”
So that's it, so that's it, Uncle Cheng Ji bowed his head one after another to agree. Jiang is still old and spicy, and Ah Weng can see it thoroughly and understand, and he is worthy of being a person who has served the head of the Zhao family for three generations.
"But the third elder, there are still things ......"
"What's the matter?"
"He also ordered the soldiers to take over the garrison in the township and close the gate of the township temple, our people wanted to go in and have a look, but they were beaten by the slammed-nosed Zhao soldier who was full of evil at the gate, and he didn't know life or death!"
The third old man frowned, it was too much, is this gentleman too involved in acting, is it necessary to do it so realistically?
At this moment, another dusty soap came running over again, also stumbling at the threshold, breaking his scalp, and simply lying there and shouting: "It's not good, it's not good, it's not good!" ”
"What's going on?"
"The door of the temple has been opened."
"Opened? Isn't that nice? ”
But the one who came out said...... said that the gentleman had already dismissed the three elders, Sima, and Situ from their positions! Appointed Cheng Wu, Dou Pengzu and others as officials! ”
"Third Elder, you are no longer the Third Elder!"
"What!"
At the moment when his authority was deprived, Cheng Weng felt fear for the first time, and Uncle Cheng got up tremblingly, accidentally overturned the case, and the wine flowed all over the room.
Only the arrogant Cheng Ji drew out his short sword and said viciously: "This must be the ghost of Cheng Wu and Dou Pengzu, father, do you want your son to take the family soldiers to kill them now." Without helpers, I see that the gentleman has only a few dozen people under his command, and he can't make any big waves. ”
Cheng Weng's old face was pale, he waved his hand and said, "Let me think about it, let me think about it again......"
He really remembered something, and hurriedly beckoned Uncle Cheng to bring the gentleman's shirtless prayer post, they were so happy just now that they didn't even have time to open it to see what was written inside.
Several people in the room got together and watched Cheng Weng open the wooden box with a slightly trembling mottled old hand, revealing the bamboo piece in it.
The eyes of the three Cheng clan widened, to be honest, the words on it were very ugly, with teeth and claws, as if they were making grimaces, as if they were laughing at the stupidity and ridiculousness of the Cheng clan.
Cheng Ji frowned and interpreted the ugly seal characters on it: "Don't ...... Not ...... Also? ”
Cheng Weng let go of his hand, and the bamboo pieces snapped to the ground, making a crisp sound, as if indicating that Cheng's century-old family business was also shattered.
"Don't be unpredictable!"
Don't blame me for not saying hello to you beforehand, since you dare to do such a thing, then don't regret the result!
