Chapter 51 Ming Xiu Plank Road
It's mid-April. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A month has passed, the town of Mizhi is calm, and the things that can cause the people in the city to talk about are getting more and more serious famine, as well as more and more displaced people, the people in the city have spread the word of mouth, and there have been cannibalism in some places, and those children with fine skin and tender meat have become the first targets to be noticed, and the homeless people kill these children in order to eat human flesh.
It is impossible for the displaced people to enter the county seat, so in the process of the people's discussion, the tone is still slightly relaxed, and they do not feel any danger in themselves, because there are peasant riots in some places under the jurisdiction of Yan'an Prefecture, and the emperor has issued an order to exterminate them, and it is said that Wang Er and Wang Daliang, who took the lead in making trouble, were all killed by the imperial army, so the common people believe that this is also some hungry and crazy refugees, gathering together to grab food and money, and it is not a real riot.
It is impossible for the common people to know what they really think, and they will not believe that the peasant rebellion in Shaanxi was in full swing in the end, so that the Ming Dynasty was overthrown, and the common people did not know why the imperial court would send a large army to suppress the peasant rebellion, that is because it is no longer a simple peasant riot, and the sergeants of the northern part of the guard, because they have not been paid for a long time, and they have to endure the exploitation of the officers, they also can't survive, and they join the ranks of the peasant rebellion after the mutiny, and the imperial court calls all those who participated in the riot as Liukou, This title continued until the fall of the Ming Dynasty.
The thing that the people in the county know is that the grain is getting more and more expensive, a stone of millet has risen to eight taels of silver, and a bucket of rice costs a thousand yuan, which makes them unable to bear it and has to go hungry.
Wu Fanhui couldn't care about these things, he couldn't save the homeless people who were about to starve to death, and he couldn't care about the famous bandit leaders such as Wang Jiayin, Gao Yingxiang, and Luo Rucai, let alone find out the whereabouts of Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Liu Zongmin, and others who had not yet become the leaders of the bandits, what he cared about was why the He family had no movement.
There are less than two months to go, and the government test is about to be held, and the efforts that the He family can do, or destruction, are at most to Yan'an Mansion, that is, the government test, as for Xi'an Mansion, I'm afraid they don't have such great ability.
It is impossible for the He family to watch him Wu Fanhui go to the government examination in a dignified and chic manner, and it is impossible to tolerate the gradual growth of the Wu family, which will eventually threaten the status of the He family in Mizhi County, but why has such a long time passed, the He family has not made the slightest movement, and the patriarch Wu Mianqing has not said anything about this matter.
Although he is already the head of the county trial, Wu Fanhui's strength is still small and pitiful, negligible, and the Yanling knife that he snatched is still buried in the ground, including the Qianhu talisman, these things he still dare not dig out.
Under such circumstances, Wu Fanhui wants to know what calculations the He family will have, which is undoubtedly ascending to the sky.
It's like practicing boxing with a boxer, you can't and can't take the initiative, you can only show your maximum ability, move and dodge, and avoid being hit mercilessly.
This kind of game makes people feel aggrieved, and it makes Wu Fanhui, a person who crosses, helpless, who calls him so weak at the beginning of the crossing, and he can win his current status in less than a year, which is very good.
On the last day of mid-April, Wu Fanhui finally came to the wing of the ancestral hall.
I haven't seen the patriarch for more than half a month, and suddenly I saw Wu Mianqing frowning and contemplative, and Wu Fanhui was still a little uncomfortable.
"Qian Jue, sit down and talk."
Wu Fanhui sat down silently, and Wu Mianqing quickly spoke again.
"I can't imagine that the He family is doing things so despicable, they are too much, no matter what He Fangzhen says, he is also the identity of a person, how to do these indiscriminate things, does he think that this can bring down my Wu family, dream."
Wu Mianqing was a little excited, and his speed of speech was slightly faster, losing his usual calmness.
Wu Fanhui still didn't speak, from Wu Mianqing's attitude, he felt that this time the He family must have done very excessively, but he was also a little strange, the He family's shot must be secretive, how did Wu Mianqing know.
Sure enough, Wu Mianqing went on to tell the truth of the matter.
"He Fangzhen personally found Wu Qingtan, inquired in detail about the Kuang family, complained about Wu Qingtan, and promised to let Wu Qingtan re-serve as the patriarch of the Wu family and overturn the case for the Kuang family.
Wu Fanhui felt incredible, He Fangzhen's courage was too great, this is a principled big thing for the Wu family, thinking about calculating the Wu family on such a thing, this is tantamount to a fool's dream, and Wu Qingtan was deprived of all his identity by the Wu family, and there is no one around him who can be supported, even if he is not expelled from the Wu family, it is very good, and now he is praying for God's blessing, and being safe is the greatest happiness.
Wu Fanhui has observed Wu Qingtan carefully, this person's character should be a little cowardly, otherwise he would not have been controlled by the Guo family for more than ten years, and when the Wu family liquidated the Guo family, Wu Qingtan didn't dare to let go of a fart, the whole thing is the taste of Mingzhe to protect himself, and it is almost impossible to support such a man-made rebellion.
He Fangzhen is the patriarch of the He family, famous, nearly seventy years old, has experienced too many turmoil, and does things carefully and spicy, which can be described as leaky, otherwise the He family would not have grown rapidly in more than ten years, how could such a powerful old man do such an eye-popping thing.
When Wu Mianqing recounted the incident, he was still a little angry, but his expression was not nervous, and he didn't look particularly worried.
"Qian Jue, the reason why I am telling you this is that you don't have to worry, study with peace of mind, no matter how calculated the He family is, I can deal with it."
Wu Fanhui nodded, Wu Mianqing would definitely be able to deal with such a thing.
"Patriarch, how did you know about this?"
"Someone found out that He Fangzhen found Wu Qingtan, and the two were still eating in Sihai Tower, I came to Wu Qingtan to inquire and learned about the whole thing."
Wu Fanhui's back was a little cold.
It is impossible for He Fangzhen to be so naïve, such a major matter, he actually invited Wu Qingtan to Sihailou for dinner, is he afraid that others will not know, do you want to announce to everyone in the Wu family that he wants to calculate, where is this a mature and spicy person to do, even if it is an immature teenager, he knows that he needs to cover it up.
What kind of medicine does the He family sell?
There was some silence in the wing, Wu Mianqing had already finished speaking, and Wu Fanhui did not speak for the time being.
In just a minute, Wu Mianqing spoke again.
"I'm going to go to He Fangzhen to theorize about this matter, this is an internal matter of my Wu family, and the He family is too arrogant, if they insist on going their own way, then I will go to the official and ask the county lord to help with the theory."
"Patriarch, Qian Jue didn't think he could do this."
"Qian Jue, don't worry about this matter, I have already thought about it and made a decision, you study hard, prepare for the government exam, don't worry about other things, so as not to be distracted."
Wu Fanhui left the wing room unhappy.
Things have come to this point, he can't stop Wu Mianqing from looking for He Fangzhen to theorize, after all, He Fangzhen has gone too far, it's like pointing at your nose and jumping up and scolding, it's impossible for you not to fight back, even if it's a clay man, he has a bit of a temper.
Something is obviously wrong, it is obviously a calculation that is doomed to failure as soon as he makes a move, why should He Fangzhen do it, does he want to make trouble for the He family, even if the He family has strong strength in Mizhi County, but if such a thing is caused by the magistrate, He Fangzhen will definitely not get support, and he will be reprimanded by the magistrate.
Is He Fangzhen crazy, this is what only a fool would do.
Back at home, Wu Fanhui, who was a little depressed, opened the "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" on the table, and after just watching it for a while, a word popped up in his mind, "Ming Xiu Plank Road Secretly Crossing Chen Cang".
Hide your true intentions behind your back, confuse them with obvious actions, and give them the illusion that you can win by surprise.
Wu Fanhui put down the book in his hand and quickly began to think.
He Fangzhen found Wu Qingtan with great fanfare, provoked the relationship within the Wu family, and tried in vain to calculate the Wu family, but this matter was quickly known by Wu Mianqing, figured out the original position, and prepared to reason with He Fangzhen, and even did not hesitate to go to the county office.
The mistake of this matter is obviously in He Fangzhen, he doesn't need too much theory to know the ending, it is very likely that He Fangzhen casually found a reason to prevaricate in the past, and admitted that he did something wrong in disguise, and it is impossible for the county magistrate to reprimand He Fangzhen too much, after all, the facts have not been formed, and he said a few words lightly, and finally turned a big thing into a small matter.
Wu Mianqing, who was victorious, would definitely be very happy, and might even publicize this matter within the family.
As a result, Wu would ignore the other things that the He family wanted to do.
You must know that Wu Mianqing is highly nervous at the moment, paying attention to the He family's every move, no matter what, Wu Mianqing is also a person, with extraordinary ability and wisdom, and Mizhi County is only so big, Wu Mianqing can pay attention to the He family's every move.
But after Wu Mianqing thwarted He Fangzhen's so-called calculations, it is unclear whether Wu Mianqing will neglect the other measures and calculations of the He family.
What's more, in the midst of such a controversy, time will slowly pass by, and when the He family's real calculations are revealed, the Wu family is afraid that they will be caught off guard and can't think of a good way to deal with it.
With He Fangzhen's wisdom, it was not very difficult to do this.
Wu Fanhui almost jumped up, ready to go to the ancestral hall again, he wanted to inform Wu Mianqing of the analysis he had made, so that Wu Mianqing and the Wu family could prepare.
Before he rushed out of his room, Wu Fanhui stopped, he couldn't do this, you need to know that people have self-esteem, he Wu Fanhui can judge things that a teenager can judge, the dignified patriarch of the Wu family, Wu Mianqing, who is a lifter, can't think of it, do you want him to remind him.
Isn't this tantamount to a direct slap in the face of Wu Mianqing.
