Chapter 17 Rumors are fiercer than tigers

In the evening.

After Wei Banshan got older, although he was still in good spirits, his various desires were obviously not as good as those in his prime.

I couldn't get to bed, I didn't know the taste of food on the table, I didn't think much about it when I saw Huizi, and there was only one thing I thought about in my heart, how to continue the glory of the Wei people.

In addition, because of the trouble of his granddaughter in the past two days, Wei Banshan has no appetite.

After eating some meals at will, he took a walk in the garden in the backyard of the Wei Mansion with crutches and waited by the two maids, thinking about what had happened in the past two days.

The granddaughter eloped with the Xu officials, which was an unbearable humiliation for the Wei people.

In fact, if Lu Zhen's identity was slightly better, even if he was just a child of a wealthy family, Wei Banshan would probably agree to this marriage under the soft grinding of his granddaughter.

It's just that Lu Zhen is just a Xu official.

If you can't do anything, you can only pass the imperial examination, and you can only boast of being proficient in the art of war.

Otherwise, how could the people of Xiangyang County give him the title of Little Pony.

Ma Tan...... Isn't it just talk on paper?

Giving Shuliu to such a late student, how can you let me rest assured of her happiness in the future.

Besides, the third son Wei Pingjiang is such a daughter, and it is reasonable that she should marry into a good family, not a family of Xiangyang County officials.

sighed for a long time, the woman didn't stay, it was all her fault for over-spoiling her.

Wei Shuliu's status in the Wei clan in Xunri is not comparable to Wei Pingyang, and in her generation of Wei people, even the grandson of the long house is not far behind.

You can imagine what this girl has become.

She is now under the fence of Gangneung Mansion, and her life will be very hard?

It's okay to let her know the reality and darkness of the outside world, maybe she will wake up to the precipice.

Just when Wei Banshan secretly blamed himself, he saw Wei Pingyang, the eldest house, running in angrily, "Father, it's not good!" ”

Wei Banshan's brows jumped.

He paused heavily on crutches and reprimanded: "I'm about to know the destiny of heaven, why are you so impetuous, I usually teach you in vain?" As long as it is not the Jin people who enter Xiangyang City, no matter how big the matter is, they will be in a panic! ”

Even if the Jin people enter Xiangyang City, as a local noble family, the Jin people will not be treated well after they occupy the city.

Wei Pingyang lowered his head and admitted his mistake, and after the old man calmed down his anger, he said: "Father, I heard someone say just now, and now it has spread from nowhere, saying that Shuliu eloped with someone......"

Wei Banshan was stunned, "Who is talking about?" ”

Wei Pingyang said distressedly: "It's all talking, the streets and alleys are talking." ”

Wei Banshan was not in a hurry, his mind was spinning rapidly, could it be the handwriting of Zhen Shide and Huang Feihong?

When I think about it, I don't think it's right.

After talking with Zhen Shide in the afternoon, I can be sure that these two pickled goods are seeking money.

If they come and expose this matter in public, how can they threaten themselves and cut off their own money?

If it's not Zhen Shide and Huang Feihong, then who is it?

Is it the Ding family that has always had contradictions between the Changmen and the Wei people? Or is it the Huang family known as the Xiaowei clan in Xiangyang?

Although the old man of the Ding family has always been at odds with him, that guy has always been upright and upright, so he shouldn't do such a thing.

And the words of the Huang family seem to be impossible.

Huang Erlang's youngest son was kidnapped by bandits in Xushan last year, and he came forward to help him redeem it.

If he does such a treacherous thing, the Huang family will not want to gain a foothold in Xiangyang in the future.

Wei Banshan couldn't figure it out.

Who stabbed the Wei family in the back?

Somehow, Wei Banshan always felt that this matter was not simple, it seemed that someone wanted to catch Shuliu and elope to make a big fuss, but its purpose was confusing.

Zhen Shide and Huang Feihong are seeking wealth, which is easy to understand.

But what was the man's purpose?

You must know that the elopement of Shuliu alone is not enough to overthrow the Wei people, at most, Shuliu will suffer heavy punishments, and the Wei people will lose a layer of skin.

As long as it takes a while, the people of Xiangyang will forget about it.

Or when the Wei family has another Jinshi, Xiangyang will only admire the scenery of the Wei people more and more.

Who exactly? For what?

Wei Banshan immediately decided, "Pingyang, you quickly ask someone to check and see where the source of this rumor is." ”

It is impossible to find out who is behind the scenes.

Let him know that you can't touch my Wei ass.

Wei Pingyang reflexively left.

……

……

In the governance of Xiangyang Mansion, the prefect Di Shaosheng and the official Zhong Yu, who should have enjoyed a comfortable life in their respective mansions after the release of the government, sat together with their faces a little dignified.

Zhong Yu took the lead and said, "Does the Mansion know about today's events? Xiangyang feels a little messy, and I always feel that someone is secretly planning something......"

Di Shaosheng smiled bitterly, "If you don't know, how can you sit here and discuss with Brother Hongda." ”

Zhong Yu, the word Hongdae, thirty-seven or eighteen years old, was born in Shaoxing in the twenty-second year of Jinshi.

His face is white, and his hands are white.

At first glance, he is a pampered scholar from a rich and noble family, but he has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he also has a sleek and accidental officialdom atmosphere.

Hearing this, he smiled bitterly: "Does Fuzun know who it is, and who dares to touch the tiger butt of the Wei clan?" It seems that Xiangyang City has this courage, and there are not many people who have this ability. ”

Although Di Shaosheng called himself a word, Zhong Yu didn't dare to be ashamed, and still called the mansion.

Respect is mutual.

Di Shaosheng panicked and said: "Brother Hong, don't say this, you won't be arrogant enough to move the Wei clan, the old man is also a person who is full of peach and plums, and if you offend him, you can't eat and walk around." ”

The peach and plum are all over the world, not that Wei Banshan is a teacher, but that he has a lot of protΓ©gΓ©s.

As the head of the Wei family in Xiangyang, many of the people who were admitted to Xiangyang had worshiped the old man as a teacher.

Of course, it was hired by the prefect of Xiangyang at the beginning, and he did not eat imperial grain.

Zhong Yu was puzzled when he heard this, "Then the lower officials really don't know who has this courage, Ambassador Zhang shouldn't be able to." ”

Ambassador Zhang is the appeasement envoy Zhang Mingzhi.

Di Shaosheng thought for a while, "In the afternoon, Xiangyang County Yazhen Shide went to see Old Man Wei, do you know anything?" ”

Zhong Yu smiled, "I guess I want to take advantage of the muddy water to get some oil, and I have been following the scraping of the county order for a long time, and the one who is close to the ink is black." ”

Di Shaosheng nodded, "It's possible." ”

Both fell silent at the same time.

After a while, Di Shaosheng suddenly said to the horse: "Brother Hong should know that a few days ago, the newly arrived Li Zhixian, who is known as the Great Song Xiaofeng, came to the mansion to ask for money. ”

Zhong Yu suddenly had a cleverness, "Could it be him?" ”

Di Shaosheng smiled, "It's hard to say." ”

It's really hard to say about this matter, in Xiangyang Mansion, there are only three or two people who dare to move and can move the Wei people, one is Zhang Mingzhi, the pacification envoy of Jingnan Road, and the other is himself.

If there is a third person, it must be this new science detective. (To be continued.) )
