Chapter 216: Madness

A single student would not dare to be so presumptuous in front of the local governor, but a group of students, and there are a large number of people behind this group of students, the situation is very different, everyone you say a word, the more you say, the more angry the group, the two county officials who have been the second official for many years and the main book at first coldly wanted to see the jokes of Wang County's order, but seeing that the people are raging and the bad words continue, if they are not suppressed, they are afraid that it will cause an uncontrollable situation, so they discussed a few words with Wang Shanji, and Wang Shanji had no choice but to promise to put the six beaten bachelors in prison again, And good words to appease Lu Tao and a group of people, and promise to strictly investigate the instigators behind these six singles - since the goal has been achieved, Lu Tao and Zhang Yuan will stop in moderation, otherwise, if you let the people behind you make a fuss, smash the county government, and beat the Wang County Order, it will be happy, but they will not be able to escape the responsibility after the fact, the power of the people is like a flood and fire, and it is not good to guide themselves to suffer first, and Zhang Yuan's goal is not in Qingpu, this Wang County Order can just beat it a little, not too much, So with his brother-in-law Lu Tao and Yang Shixiang and others, they helped persuade the people to disperse, until the three drums, and the Qingpu County Ya finally restored calm.

Wang Shanji stayed in the county, the main book, the history of the torture room, and the county school instructor to discuss together, and decided to report the matter of the party to the Huang Governor's Mansion and the Huang Governor's Office first, and the six Huating Bachelors were detained first, and saw how the Inspector Division replied, whether to confiscate the army or escort the Songjiang Mansion for interrogation, they had to be handled in accordance with the law, and they could no longer acquit people because of a private letter from the Huang Governor's Mansion...... The six young men who escaped at the Qingpu Wharf returned to Huating overnight, and hurriedly went to see Wu Long, the leader of the Songjiang Fighting Tour, who had more than 200 young hands under Wu Long, who colluded with Dong Zuchang, gambled at the beginning, bought and annihilated prostitutes, held the good hostage, bullied the widows, and did all kinds of evil, these singles and green hands entered the yamen as a common thing, and they were not afraid of being beaten, but it was the first time that they were beaten for Dong's errands, and they were beaten twice within three days, and six people were still locked up in the Qingpu County Prison and could not be released, which made Wu Long shocked and angry - Wu Long was in his thirties, The appearance is not tall and burly, but vigorous and strong, skillful in fists and feet, guns, and sticks, originally to teach people to practice martial arts as a profession, after gathering a group of disciples, he established a fighting line, hired to avenge others, deceive and steal "hit the six cities", set up a bureau to frame others for money, etc., and there is a generation of people to be beaten, because the government is urgent, some of the head of the first household can not complete the tax, they will be beaten, but they can hire people to be beaten, this is really a miracle, the people who fight are also hard money, but since they have made friends with Dong Hanlin's son, The young hands of the gang have long stopped doing the cheap business of being beaten on behalf of others, but full-time beating people - Wu Long has a young hand with outstanding martial arts named Wang Da Hammer, and said angrily: "Big brother, just call the brothers to rush to Qingpu and tear down the Lu family, so that the people of Qingpu can see how powerful my Huating is doing." ”

Wu Long is now also a rich man with a lot of money, and he will not be as reckless and reckless as an ordinary bachelor lama, and said: "Don't worry, it's late at night, and I will discuss with Dong Ergongzi that the revenge of the brothers must be avenged, otherwise how will I fight the people in Songjiang gain a foothold in Songjiang in the future." ”

The next morning, Wu Long went to Dong's mansion to see Dong Zuchang, Dong Zuchang was furious when he heard it, and he didn't have time to tell his father Dong Qichang, so he went to visit Huang Guoding, the prefect of Songjiang, Huang Guoding also received the documents delivered by Wang Shanji overnight from Qingpu County, and he felt that the matter was tricky, and Dong Zuchang also shouted to severely punish Qingpu Lu and arrest Zhang Yuan, which made Huang Guoding very unhappy, and handed a folded and somewhat broken Songjiang paper on the desk to Dong Zuchang and said: "Brother, hurry up and show this to Mr. Dong, this matter is not trivial, It was only the official who took it down from the Affirmation Pavilion. ”

Dong Zu saw that the Huang Governor's Mansion avoided talking about punishing the Lu family but gave him a piece of broken paper, and he was also angry in his heart, and said: "This paper will be shown to my father later, but Lu Tao and Zhang Yuan instructed people to injure my Dong family's disciples, and also arrested people, if Lord Fuzun does not punish him severely, I am afraid it will be difficult to convince the public." ”

Huang Guoding said lightly: "Qingpu Wang Zhi County has a document, those six people have been imprisoned in the county jail, it is inconvenient to release for a while, Brother Shi first showed this post to Teacher Dong, and the mansion will personally come to the door to explain to the teacher in the afternoon." ”

Dong Zuchang had no choice but to resign, he was very annoyed that he did not achieve his goal, unfolded the broken paper and glanced at it, what was written, "People's hearts are dangerous in the mountains and rivers, it is difficult to know the sky, the sky still has the period of spring, autumn, winter, summer, and twilight, and people are thick and affectionate-", the title is "Calligraphy and Painting are Difficult to Speak of the Heart", Dong Zuchang said indignantly: "Inexplicable, show my father this tattered paper is very bad, it is obviously prevarication, is Huang Guoding also afraid of the Shanyin Zhang family?" ”

If it weren't for Huang Guoding's repeated instructions to show this post to Mr. Dong, Dong Zuchang would probably have lost it casually, so he had to endure the surname to come to his father's house, Dong Zuyuan, Dong Zuchang, Dong Zuhe each have a mansion, did not live with his father Dong Qichang, but they are very close to each other, thousands of houses, even the streets, Dong Zuyuan was still building a new house by the Changsheng Bridge last year - Dong Qichang practiced in the painting Zen room in the morning, which is his habit for decades, Dong Qichang participated in the Songjiang Mansion Examination at the age of seventeen, and failed to take the first place in the government examination because of poor calligraphyFrom then on, angry post, from the Wei and Jin Dynasty Zhong, Wang to the Tang Dynasty Yan, Liu, from the five generations of Yang Ning style to the Song Dynasty Mi Fu, the post is very diligent, eventually become a generation of calligraphy everyone, now this year is sixty years, each still to write a thousand words in large block letters 100 words, this said just wrote the whole article, son Dong Zu often came, angry said that the Huang prefect refused to severely punish Qingpu Lu Shi beating people, but solemnly asked him to send a piece of broken paper - Dong Qichang remained silent, unfolded the broken paper to see, first look at the word, the word is very bad, only recognizable, obviously scribbled, There are thousands of words densely packed, and when he reads hundreds of words, Dong Qichang, who was originally sitting, stood up, propped his hands on the bookcase and continued to read, the more he looked, the more frightened and angry he became, and his hands on the bookcase trembled-Dong Zu saw his father so angry, and then he understood that this piece of broken paper was really important, and hurriedly asked: "Father, what is this writing, and my father is so angry?" ”

Dong Qichang was short of breath, and he kept seeing the poem that Yuan asked at the end of the article, and suddenly screamed angrily, stretched out his hand to tear the already somewhat broken Songjiang paper in half, and swept a small vial on the bookcase to the ground, with a "bang" sound, broken porcelain splashed everywhere, and then sat back in the official hat chair, panting and asking loudly: "Who is it, who wrote this article?" ”

Dong Zuchang had never seen his father so angry and out of shape, and he was also awe-inspiring, and replied: "Governor Huang said that the official took it down from the Shenming Pavilion early in the morning. ”

Dong Qichang screamed: "This article is vicious, it is to put me Dong Qichang to death." While shouting, he slammed the book in front of him, which showed that he was extremely angry and almost crazy.

Dong Zuchang hurriedly picked up the torn paper that was torn in half, and put it together to see where he scolded his father, looked left and right to see that he didn't understand, Dong Zuchang can only be regarded as literate, look at some popular novels, this "Calligraphy and Painting Difficult to Heart Voice" is an elegant and pure ancient text, quoting scriptures, sprinkled with joy, he didn't see which sentence was a curse, but his father was so furious, obviously this article was very vicious, so he said: "Father is angry, son will go to find out who posted this article!" ”

Dong Qichang couldn't control his furious emotions anymore, and shouted: "Go and investigate, if you find out who it is, hit me hard!" ”

Dong Zuchang agreed, took the two pieces of broken paper out of the painting meditation room, first went to discuss with his brother Dong Zuyuan, Dong Zuyuan put together the broken paper and looked at it carefully, Dong Zuyuan is not as unlearned as his brother Zuchang, and said angrily: "This is to slander my father's character, no wonder my father is furious, this article is really vicious, this article will be spread to my father's reputation, it must be investigated immediately, and don't expect Huang Zhifu, that class of officials is useless, let Wu Long's subordinates all go to check, since it is posted in the Shenming Pavilion, there will always be people who will see it, Even if someone wants to ruin his father's reputation, he must not just post it in one place in the Affirmation Pavilion, search and check it in other places, and tear it up immediately when he sees it, so as not to spread it. ”

Dong Zuchang immediately asked people to summon Wu Long, and ordered Wu Long to immediately send people around to search for and post this "calligraphy and painting is difficult to speak of the heart", the leader of the beating line Wu Long looked embarrassed, he was illiterate, and there were few people under him who were literate with green hands, and it was okay for them to beat people, and it was difficult for them to recognize words.

Dong Zuchang said impatiently: "No matter how much, seeing that all the posters were arrested and tortured and interrogated, my father was already furious, and he would stop if he didn't catch this person." ”

Wu Long asked: "Second son, do you care about the six people who are imprisoned in Qingpu?" ”

Dong Zu often shouted: "The thief who catches the post first is the most important, go quickly!" ”

After Wu Long went, Dong Zuchang sent hundreds of family members, all of whom knew a few words, the streets and alleys of Huating County were full of Dong Fu slaves and Qing hands, those who played Qing Shou by the way and bullied the good, flirted with women, for a time the entire county and the city were full of smoke and miasma, such a big county, there are always a few who are posting the revelation of looking for people or things, just by the Dong family slaves and beating the green hands, indiscriminately, they will be beaten violently, and the post of "calligraphy and painting is difficult to speak of the heart" is everywhere, Dong's house slaves and Da Xingqingshou uncovered more than 20 sheets, but they didn't catch the person who posted this article, so they took the two unlucky ghosts who posted the notice of finding things back to Dong Zuchang's mansion for interrogation -- Dong Zuchang set up a private torture hall, and let the two unlucky ghosts be beaten again, beaten half to death, but couldn't ask anything, thinking that the wrong person had been arrested, but he didn't let the two go, and first locked them in the firewood room to find out the truth before releasing them.

Dong Zuchang said to his brother Dong Zuyuan hatefully: "This matter must be related to Zhang Yuan, as soon as that kid comes to Songjiang, everything will come!" Suddenly remembered that Bu Shicheng said that there were three Huating Xiucai with Zhang Yuan, one surnamed Jiang I don't know who, and the other two were Jin Langzhi and Weng Yuansheng.

…… At this time, Zhang Yuan and his eldest brother Zhang Dai were playing chess in Chen Jiru's Dongshe Mountain Residence, and they were not leisurely.
