Chapter 43: The Unlucky Gu Mengping
There was a carriage parked outside the street gate, it was the green cloth oil-walled car that Gu Mengping often cared in, but the people in the car were extremely unexpected.
Jiang Sixian?
Why did he go to the outer three-room house in person?
Gu Mengping was full of doubts, but he didn't dare to ask, and led him to see the old monk according to Jiang Sixian's instructions.
Jiang Sixian didn't carry Gu Mengping behind his back, and directly ordered him to serve in the upper room.
It's just that what he said surprised Gu Mengping.
"Master Dong died by insertion, does the master know?"
Not only Gu Mengping was surprised, but even the old monk was extremely surprised.
Immediately, he bowed slightly, "It is known that the chief butler in Beijing has sent a message to report the news." ”
Seeing that he didn't hide it, Jiang Sixian's face was much better, "I'm afraid that this time, the Gu family will be involved." After he said this, he glanced at Gu Mengping, who was standing with his hands tied.
The old monk's gaze turned accordingly, and then he smiled, "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven, that's all." ”
Jiang Sixian's face changed slightly, but he maintained a good demeanor and sat firmly on the futon.
Gu Mengping's heart was surging.
Governor Jiang is here to ask the old monk for help? The old monk seems to have refused?
Thinking of this, he looked at Jiang Sixian carefully, but he hadn't seen him for two days, Jiang Sixian looked a lot thinner, and the beard on his face was a little messy.
As if sensing Gu Mengping's gaze, Jiang Sixian looked back at him and smiled kindly.
Jiang Sixian turned his head and finally mustered up his courage, "This time it's not only the Gu family, I'm afraid it's the Jiang family, it's also involved." ”
It turned out that the disappearance of the three princes involved a lot. Not only were officials in Jinling arrested and held accountable, but even some people in Beijing were dismissed because of this. Seeing that two months have passed, the three princes have not been seen, and the big bosses in Beijing are in a hurry.
As a result, there was an impeachment in the Imperial Court of Governors, demanding that Dong Zhizhong be brought out of the edict and handed over to the Three Law Divisions for trial. Coincidentally, this letter has just been put on the dragon case, but Dong Zhizhong in the edict prison is dead......
The superintendent Yushi was furious, thinking that someone must have bought the edict and put Dong Zhi more important than death, so as to annihilate the factual evidence.
He put ten stamps in a row, demanding a thorough investigation into the matter.
His Majesty stayed in the middle of the day, but he frequently urged Jinyiwei to find out the cause of Dong Zhizhong's death.
For this reason, Jinyiwei executed one thousand households and three hundred households......
But faintly, there is evidence that the Gu family was involved in the extermination. Not only that, but even the Jiang family was involved.
The Gu family supports the eldest prince, and the Jiang family supports the second prince......
What the ultimate purpose of this is, of course, is self-evident.
Jiang Sixian came this time to hope that the Gu and Jiang families could join forces for the time being, and not expose each other's shortcomings, so as not to be harmed by a third party.
"The surname of the superintendent is Lu, he is Chinese New Year's Eve nine years old today, he is not friends or parties, he does not associate with anyone, and he is a lonely minister...... I concluded that he was His Majesty's ......" Jiang Sixian said slowly, and then his tone changed, "After this incident, the capital of Jinling, the top and bottom of the capital water Qing officials have been emptied, and I don't know when His Majesty will appoint a new river official......"
The old monk raised his eyebrows slightly and sat quietly on the futon.
Although the Gu family is a thin family, there are many old students, and it is really good to be able to win the position of the river.
Although this position belonged to the Gu family in the past, Dong Zhizhong died......
There is no way for a dead man to occupy a position!
Seeing that the old monk didn't speak, Jiang Sixian said again: "Shang Yanming, the capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, has completed the examination for nine years, and he has been specially promoted to the prefect of Nanchang Prefecture, and he will be able to take office in a few days......
A six-grade capital jumped two steps in a row at once, and became a four-grade product, and there are several layers of meaning revealed in these words.
However, in Gu Mengping's opinion, this most important layer is that the position of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is vacant, do you want the people of the Gu family?
If you want, stand beside my Jiang family and don't make trouble, if you don't want to, this time my Jiang family will deal with you first, and then deal with the eldest prince after dealing with it.
It's a big deal that the fish dies and the net is broken, and both sides lose.
The old monk recited the Buddha's horn and said, "Got it." ”
Jiang Sixian didn't want to come, and returned satisfied.
The old monk sent Yijing to invite Gu Qi again, saying that he had something to entrust.
When Yijing walked for a long time, the old monk Fang said quietly: "I don't see it, I don't hear it, I don't see it, I don't see it, I don't want to be a person's righteousness?" He glanced at Gu Mengping.
Gu Mengping knew that this was telling him that he couldn't get bored with Jiang Sixian because he threatened the old monk! He gently bowed his head and pounded the old monk's leg lightly.
The old monk sighed, frowned slightly, and slowly closed his eyes.
Although Gu Qi was puzzled, he still came with Yijing in the end.
However, after half a tea time, he left the outer third room in a cold sweat.
After going back, he went to Dongfu without telling the Yang family, and after only spending tea time in Dongfu, he whipped up and hurried to the capital.
Gu Mengping squeezed the old monk's hand tightly, unwilling to let go for a long time.
The old monk is letting both the East and the West accept his affection, and it will not be good not to take care of Gu Mengping in the future.
Thinking of the old monk who had ignored the world for decades and was so anxious about him, the tears in Gu Mengping's eyes couldn't be stopped.
Actually, he doesn't like to cry!
The old monk didn't persuade him, but just looked at him with a smile.
Gu Lixian wrote the letter to him, but he didn't read it after all. It is nothing more than a word of encouragement, nothing more than asking him not to forget his background and not to lose Xifu in the future......
He had been in Fenglin Temple for eleven years, and Gu Lixian didn't even know about his existence at all, let alone writing letters.
If it weren't for the old monk, who would know who he Gu Mengping was?
Dong Zhizhong's death of Lord Dong seems to have not even lifted a flower in Suiping, except for the fact that Dongfu secretly hung white.
As if none of them knew.
Gu Mengping still went to Runing Mansion every three days, and took care of the old monk the rest of the time.
Jiang Sixian never mentioned the matter of Jingzhong in front of him again, but asked him to redouble his filial piety to the old monk.
"Use the way of heaven, divide the benefits of the land, use it sparingly, and support your parents, the filial piety of this people. Therefore, since the Son of Heaven is to the people, filial piety has no end, and those who cannot suffer will not have it. ”
Gu Mengping said yes, and even his jaw was headed.
Walking out of the corner gate of the prefect's yamen, Gu Mengping took a long breath.
He sighed more than ever in the past few months.
That is, for the old monk, but also for himself.
Knowing that the old monk was running out of oil, he still hoped for a miracle to happen......
As he thought, he walked towards the carriage, not seeing the two of them in front of him.
The two of them, a middle-aged man and a teenager, both have bitter faces.
The middle-aged man kept complaining about the young man in his mouth, "Zimo, it's all your fault." Master, I obviously said that I wanted to live in the official's post station, but you have to save those two copper dimes...... Now it's okay, the two of us are afraid that we will not be able to sell ourselves and beg all the way back to our hometown. If you make the master angry, the master will sell you to Jiang Zijiu! His wife is a jealous ......."
Zimo behind him seemed to be a scholar, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and his mouth was open enough to fit a whole duck egg, "Master? This is a great injustice...... When did Zimo say that he was going to stay at the guest house? Obviously, the old man saw that little lady looks like a Peugeot ......"
Before he finished his words, he heard two 'ouch' sounds, and Gu Mengping and the middle-aged man collided.
Gu Mengping only cared about walking and didn't look at his feet, but at this time, he was hit, tilted to the side, and hit his head on the wheel again, only to have gold stars in his eyes.
Screaming again.
When the middle-aged man saw it, he couldn't care that he was also hurting, so he hurriedly went to inspect Gu Mengping's injuries.
As a result, the arm was stretched too much, and it happened to hit the bridge of Gu Mengping's nose with a punch......
Gu Mengping only had tears and snot flowing together in pain.
He wanted to scold his mother......

Brothers and sisters, this is the first shift today, and there will be another shift around 8 o'clock in the evening. If there is a make-up, it will be at noon or in the evening. If there are only two watches, it means that the energy is not enough to make up for it.
