As he spoke, the two went straight to the door of the house.

Suddenly, I saw two people walking out of the house, and after a closer look, they knew that it was Zeng Di and Xu Shilin's son-in-law.

The moment Zeng Di walked out of the Hou Mansion, he had already seen Zhang Shuo and Yue Lin from a distance, so he walked towards the two of them quickly.

When he came to the nearest place, without waiting for Zeng Di to greet him, Zhang Shuo anxiously asked: "Brother Zeng, who is in this mansion to be mourned?" ”

Zeng Di looked at Yue Lin and Zhang Shuo, and then sighed and said, "It's none other than Lord Ye!" ”

"What! This ......"

Hearing this, Yue Lin immediately took a few steps back before standing firmly, looking at the gate of the Hou Mansion with a blank expression, and it was difficult for his steps to move forward for half a minute.

Zhang said that after hearing this bad news, his expression changed several times but he was puzzled: "Are you sure?" ”

"The body is still lying in the spirit shed, and the lower official and the little son-in-law Shilin have already worshipped......"

Zeng Di is his own person, and he can naturally trust what he says. He had always hoped that Ye Yu would die, because this was the biggest obstacle to their political struggle.

However, when he heard the bad news outside the Hou Mansion, Zhang Shuo was not happy at all, because he was worried about the safety of the Great Song Dynasty.

Infighting is infighting, but when it comes to the safety of the imperial court, all the infighting can be put aside for the time being, after all, there is no even the society of the country, and what is the point of the endless fighting.

So, as time goes by, the state of mind of these people is also changing!

Just as a few people were talking, a lot of people gradually gathered outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, and most of them were dressed as people in the city, and everyone looked gloomy as if they were mourning, and consciously lined up a long line to enter the Hou Mansion.

"This is ......," said Zhang, who was still feeling lost, and suddenly became suspicious when he saw the situation in front of him.

Xu Shilin, the prefect of Fuzhou, saw Zhang Shuo asking about this, so he explained: "Don't hide it from Lord Taiwei, this is a worship procession organized by the people of Fuzhou spontaneously, and it has already started to do so two days ago, and the number is ten times as many as today......

"Ten times!?"

Xu Shilin's explanation made Zhang Shuo, who was a lieutenant, stunned on the spot, because this tenfold jù shocked him too much.

Because in just a short period of time, there has been a spontaneous queue of less than marginal, so you can imagine what a huge number of people are ten times the number in Xu Shilin's mouth.

"Yes, Zeng didn't expect that Ye Yu would have such a big influence. In the past few days, most of the people in Fuzhou will come to the Hou Mansion to worship, which has become a great spectacle in Fuzhou City~! ”

Zhang Shuo was stunned, and said with a gloomy face: "It seems that this Ye Yu's means of buying people's hearts is also beyond the reach of everyone I am!" ”

"Lord Zhang, whether or not to buy people's hearts, the people have their own opinions, and slandering others behind such a back is not a gentleman's doing!"

Yue Lin saw that Zhang Shuo slandered Ye Yu with words, so he continued unhappily: "Even if it is a means to buy people's hearts, at least the people of Li have got the benefits they deserve, and it is better than some people who only know how to fight for power and profit, and do not care about the life and death of the people!" ”

"You! ……”

"Since you're here, as a colleague, you should come forward to worship, Lord Zhang, let's go!"

"Humph!"

The two of them walked into the Hou Mansion one after the other, and they did not pretend to be angels of the decree, but in order not to alarm the people who came to worship, everyone entered the mansion in a low-key manner.

As the magistrate of Fuzhou, he naturally wanted to follow, so Zeng Di, the two sons-in-law, also followed.

In the courtyard of the house, blowing and blowing, knocking and knocking, monks and Taoist priests are chanting scriptures. As the saying goes, everyone understands when one person raps, and everyone raps and coaxes.

At this time, in the Hou Mansion, monks and Taoist priests all gathered together, and they all recited words, and all kinds of super-spiritualizing methods were readily available.

But I couldn't hear a word of what I was reading or singing.

In the well courtyard, Baili Feng wore a filial piety hat on his head, a filial piety robe, and a white hemp rope tied around his waist, greeting the crowd who came to worship.

Although Bailifeng has never been a high-ranking official, and he does not know many Beijing officials, he only knows Yue Lin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry. Because when he was in Yefu in the capital, Yue Lin had several encounters with each other in and out of Yefu.

Now when I saw Yue Lin coming with a gloomy expression, followed by an old man in a purple robe, I knew that this was the second batch of people who passed the decree.

So he greeted him and cried: "Oh, Lord Yue, you are a step late, Brother Ye...... He...... Already ......"

In the end, the grief is already difficult to control.

This bad news was confirmed again, Yue Lin hit his head like a heavy stick, and he almost fainted.

Fortunately, the entourage around him supported him in time, and after a while, Yue Lin's feelings eased up, and he couldn't help but burst into tears: "Baili, what kind of illness does the virtuous nephew have, why is it so sudden?" ”

Baili Feng cried with a sad face, and said sadly: "Alas, Lord Yue doesn't know, Brother Ye's old illness has been for many years, and it all stems from the duel with the Eight Mountains of the Jin Country back then, due to excessive exhaustion, he often has a faint pain in his head......

On the one hand, the hundred miles of wind were crying and talking, and on the other hand, the ladies in front of the spirit shed were whimpering and crying, and under this depressing atmosphere, people were crying and listening to sadness.

At this moment, a group of scholars poured in from outside the house, entered the courtyard, and surrounded Zhang Shuo, Yue Lin and others without saying a word.

Seeing that the royal forest guards who came with him were about to draw their swords to resist, a guard of the Hou Mansion was personally commanded by the lone wolf and trapped these royal forest guards in the encirclement.

The people who came to worship did not know why, but when they saw that both sides had moved their swords, they hid in horror and watched from the sidelines.

At this time, one of the young scholars stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Shuo's shirt and shouted: "I was looking for you to settle accounts, but you took the initiative to send it to the door!" Dear classmates, fellow villagers, this adult is the murderer who killed Master Ye! ”

After saying this sentence, it broke the sky, and these scholars shouted one after another, telling the people present the reason!

"How many practical things Master Ye has done for our people, how many contributions he has made for the imperial court, and how many opportunities have given us poor students the opportunity to enter the imperial examination, but all these achievements have been erased by these traitors!"

"Yes, the promotion of looms has made it affordable for all of our people to buy cloth for clothes. Rectifying corrupt officials and asking for the lives of the people is a blue sky. Paper printing has given us poor bachelors the opportunity to study, so that reading is no longer the patent of rich and noble people! ”

"Back then, it was Master Ye who strengthened my Great Song Guowei with one enemy and eight enemies, and it was Master Ye who quelled the rebellion of King Fu and repelled the 100,000 sailors of the Jin Kingdom.

"There is no heavenly reason, Hou Ye has been in our Fuzhou for more than a year, building water conservancy to benefit the people, and it is more prosperous than the Fuwang period, so it is really unreasonable to treat Hou Ye like this!"

"That's right! No reason! ”

Under the speeches of the scholars, many onlookers began to respond.

"In the six years since Master Ye entered the court as an official, everything he has done conscientiously is a major event that ordinary officials cannot do in their lifetime. The young man shouldered morality and wrote wonderful articles, but it was these traitors who forced Master Ye to a dead end, you say, these people should not be killed! ”

"Damn it! Kill them and sacrifice the spirit of Hou Ye! ”

"Yes, kill the priests!"

The literati were good at oratory, and under the explanation and clamor of many scholars, the people who came to worship shouted like a cry of condemnation!
