Chapter 118: The Alliance?
"Huyan Gongzi, my lord, that nonsense said, today's court [***], Jia thief is in charge, a large amount of land and money are concentrated in the hands of a few bureaucrats and tyrants, and the lives of ordinary people are becoming more and more difficult, if this situation continues, the consequences will be unimaginable." Hu Yun looked a little gloomy and said, "Later, we said that we would go back to my hometown to visit my old mother in the afternoon when I finished my official business. That night, I didn't go home, I slept in a makeshift accommodation in front of the cell door. About midnight, Hu Feng came to my house, and I was surprised how he had come to look for me in prison, when he knocked me unconscious, and when I woke up, I found myself in the hut in the back mountain, and I also saw our mother. ”
Hu Yun took a sip of water and continued: "After I woke up, Hu Feng briefly told me what happened that night, saying that after he knocked me unconscious, he disguised himself as me, entered the prison, and shot Gai Yutian. ”
Song Chengzu asked, "Why do you want to kill Gai Zhaotian?" ”
This question is also what I want to know, Gai Zhaotian is also a thief who does not enter the stream, why did Hu Feng kill him? What's more, there seems to be no intersection in their lives.
"I slowly learned the reason for killing Gai Zhaotian later." Hu Yun paused for a moment and said, "In the days that followed, Hu Feng told me about his experience intermittently. Over the years, he got acquainted with a group of people who he thought had a lot of ideas, and they formed an organization called the Alliance, saying that it was to change the current situation, so that the world could reproduce the prosperity of the Han and Tang dynasties, so that the people could have enough food and clothing. Of course, it is good to be able to recreate the prosperous era, and I have no objection to it, and I then asked him how to achieve it. He said that the current imperial court is terminally ill and incurable, and that this goal can only be achieved by re-establishing a new and effective imperial court and completely changing the decadent and incompetent regime. I was furious and said they were trying to rebel. Hu Feng neither affirmed nor denied it, but just kept telling me about the purpose of their alliance, and said that I was about to run out of vitality, and only their alliance leader could save the people from fire and water. Later, Hu Feng said that Nagai Zhaotian was also a member of their peripheral organization, and that the prison was heavily guarded that night, and he knew that he could not rescue him, and he was worried that he would tell the situation of the organization after he was escorted to Beijing, so he killed people. ”
Song Chengzu was startled, stood up again and said, "What, you want to rebel?" ”
"The Alliance?" I was shocked, stretched out my hand to signal Song Chengzu to calm down, and said, "Hu Yun, did Hu Feng say the purpose of his coming here?" ”
"Childe, Hu Feng just said that he came to Jinhua to complete a task, as for what the task was, he didn't mention it, saying that after completing the task, he would take me and my mother away."
"Did you say where to take it?"
Hu Yun said: "I didn't say this, I just said that it was like the scene in the Peach Blossom Spring." ”
"Xanadu? Hehe. I smiled, "Hu Yun, what does Hu Feng tell you about these intentions?" ”
"Hu Feng hopes that I can join their organization and rebuild a new dynasty with them."
"And what do you mean?"
Hu Yun said indignantly: "Son, I have studied hard for ten years, although I have not gained fame, but I also know that I was born a person of the Great Song Dynasty, of course I will not agree." ”
"Hu Yun, how long have you been in Jinhua?"
"I've been fishing for almost ten years since I started with the earliest hunting."
"Ten years, it's not a short time, it's been a long time since you were in officialdom, don't you think your brother's words are not all nonsense? In today's Mongolia, the current imperial court, there are indeed many current situations that are consistent with what Hu Feng said. ”
Hu Yun was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, even Song Chengzu was stunned, I don't know why I said this.
After a while, Hu Yun spoke: "Childe, if it was before, I really don't know how to answer, in the past ten years, I have become more and more worried about my court, and even I am deeply disappointed in the future of the court. However, since this year's imperial examination, my mind has completely changed because I see hope. ”
"Ah, you're going to take the imperial examination?" Immediately, I denied myself, "This is impossible, how can any official go to participate in the scientific examination, not to mention that if Hu Yun participates in the scientific examination, he will naturally recognize me." ”
"Childe, I won't tell you the truth, one of the Jinshi on the red list of the Xianchun Imperial Examination this time is my friend, my friend said that the biggest gain of his entry into Beijing this time is not that he can be on the red list of high school, but from the instructions of the emperor today, I see the hope of our dynasty, I deeply sympathize with this, and I also recognize it very much." Hu Yun said a little excitedly, "The prince doesn't know, the students who have participated in this scientific expedition have summarized the emperor's instructions in the tribute academy into a poem, a sentence and a couplet, from which everyone sees the hope of our dynasty." ”
"What is a couplet of a poem?" I'm confused myself.
"Childe, this poem refers to a poem given by the emperor to the candidates in the Tribute Academy, it is like this, Kyushu is angry and thunderous, and all the horses are sad. I make the heavens heavy, and I don't stick to one pattern to reduce talents. In a word, it refers to the emperor's expectations for the candidates, the rise and fall of the world, and the responsibility of the husband. The couplet refers to the emperor's requirements for those who are on the list when they become officials in the future, when the official is not the master of the people, it is better to go home and raise livestock, and horizontal criticism is the way of the official. It is from this that I also see hope, the emperor is so wise today, comparable to the Ming Jun of the Han and Tang Dynasties, I believe that the emperor will be able to lead us to revitalize the mountains and rivers of China. ”
I didn't expect that my instructions in the Gongyuan would have such an effect, and this time it was my turn to be stunned. I hurriedly took a sip of tea and said slowly, "I see." Hu Yun, in addition to Hu Feng, who else have you come into contact with? ”
Hu Yun thought for a while and said: "There are only three guards and one food deliverer, this food delivery is called Steward He by the guards, and the accent is local, and those three guards don't seem to be Jinhua locals." ”
I said "En" and said: "Steward He is He Dongfu, the housekeeper of Hejiazhuang." ”
"Hejiazhuang? Does this matter still have anything to do with Hejiazhuang? ”
I said: "It's hard to say at the moment, I guess it may just be He Dongfu's personal behavior." Hu Yun, think about it again, are there any clues? ”
"By the way, Childe, when the man in black and Hu Feng were talking, they mentioned the treasure accumulation concept on Chisong Mountain."
"Treasure Accumulation? It must have been for the sake of the pine stickers. ”
"What is a pine sticker?"
"It's the secret book of the Red Pine Sect to practice martial arts."
Song Chengzu said: "Childe, it seems that this Hu Feng originally came for the sake of Chi Song, and it was just the right time to kill Gai Zhaotian." ”
"Well, I think so, too. Mr. Song, tonight you will arrange for Hu Yun and his mother to rest at the inn for the night, and you will take the other four back to the government office, interrogate them overnight, and immediately draw a portrait of Hu Feng, and assist in the arrest of the government offices on the two Zhejiang roads. ”
"Yes, Childe, Yi Changjiang should also arrive, I'll go back."
Wen Zhang was a little depressed when he saw Song Chengzu and the others leaving: "It's a pity to let the main culprit escape this time, it's all because we didn't find the carrier pigeon released by He Dongfu at that time." Childe, do you think Hu Yun's words are credible? ”
Fang Ling said: "I think it's credible, right, brother." ”
"Well, the credible surname is very big, wait for Song Chengzu to interrogate the other people tonight and then make a conclusion, Lan Yu, Shen Mo, Wen Zhang, the three of you will monitor the movements of Hu Yun's mother and son tonight."
"Yes, Childe."
Fang Ling looked at me and said, "Brother, you don't look like a businessman at all when you assign tasks. ”
"yes, what does that look like?"
"It's like a general with a strong soldier in his hand, full of majesty and magnificence."
"Ling'er, have you seen the general?"
Fang Ling smiled: "No, but I've seen it on the stage, hehe, by the way, brother, I heard Hu Yun's words just now, the current emperor's poems, sentences and couplets do seem very insightful, extraordinary, it seems that my brother has an opponent." ”
"Ah, what opponent?"
"Ling'er has always thought that there are knowledgeable people in this world, brother, you are the first, and now it seems that this emperor is not simple, and you are comparable to brother."
I smiled and was speechless.
Yuan Jian on the side couldn't help but laugh, and hurriedly diverted the topic: "Childe, the organization that Hu Feng belongs to seems to be not simple, and its purpose is somewhat similar to the purpose of our dragon's teeth. ”
"Well, after I go back, let Lu Xiufu send someone to investigate, it sounds like this Hu Feng has lofty ideals, it seems that the leader of their organization is a character."
Most of the rebels in ancient times rose up to resist because they could not bear to be oppressed. But this organization gives me the feeling that this is not the case, it seems that there is an advanced view of modern people, and even the name is very modern, could it be that there are other time-travelers?
