Chapter 90 Whether to save Tang Seng or not
A few days have passed since the Zhou family's tragedy, and people have gradually discussed it less, as if the Zhou family did not appear in Beiping City.
The original address of the Zhou family has now become a ruin, and the dead bodies have also been cleaned up, but the blood stains on the ground are still there. The originally prosperous gate of the Zhou family is now full of doors. Those businessmen who have interests with Zhou Jie used to run to Zhou's house when they had nothing to do, but now they don't run anymore, and they do their own things in a proper manner.
They also consciously handed over all the money that Zhou Jie had invested in to Zhu Di, and swore that they would never do this kind of collusion between officials and businessmen again.
Zhu Di originally wanted to arrest all these profiteers and put them in prison, but considering their status among the merchants in Beiping, if they were all arrested, the price guarantee in Beiping would be in chaos, and the people would still suffer. For the sake of their good attitude, I let them go this time, but let them confess all the officials who had interests with them.
I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it. Only then did Zhu Di know that more than half of the officials and businessmen in Beiping had collusion, and then he realized that what Hu Ye said was right, there were few officials who were not greedy.
It is obviously unrealistic to dispose of all these officials, and the impact of dealing with these businessmen is even greater. But Zhu Di will never allow the officials in Beiping to go on like this, because the ultimate victims are the people of his fiefdom, so Zhu Di wants to sound a wake-up call for them.
So Zhou Yi and Zhang Yuan became the targets of Zhu Di's actions, Zhu Di did not want to destroy these two people, but to warn those petty officials while fighting hatred with these two people.
So Zhu Di asked Liu Sheng to take the people of the Soldiers and Horses Division to the two people's mansion on the grounds that Zhou Jie reported the two people.
After verification by the Soldiers and Horses Division, what Zhou Jie said was untrue, and Zhou Yi and Zhang Yuan were honest and honest. As for many precious items in the two people's homes, the Terracotta Division explained that Zhou Jie framed the two and wanted to take them back as stolen goods.
So the Terracotta Division took the opportunity to loot the two families, and the things they moved back were worth hundreds of thousands of taels. Zhou Zhang and the others are very unwilling, but they are helpless, if they really provoke Zhu Di, compared to the truth, the old background of the two of them will be known to everyone. If Zhu Di is put on a hat of corruption and perverting the law, the end will be extremely miserable.
So the two could only watch Zhu Di rob at home, and secretly sent someone to Nanjing to complain, saying that Zhu Di was arrogant and unreasonable in Beiping, and also privately set up a division of soldiers and horses, wanting to compete for the right to enforce the law according to the judge. There are also inscriptions for merchants, which damage the royal reputation, in short, the crime is no less than Zhou Jie's.
What Zhu Di wants is this effect, his father knows all these things he does, even if these two people sue him, they will not shake their position in his father's heart. There will also be an understanding in the imperial court that the three divisions of Beiping and the king of Yan are not in harmony.
Zhu Di really realized at this moment that the big gift that Hu Ye asked Zhou Jie to give was simply outrageous. He bought an extra million taels of silver in his house for nothing, and he also rectified the businessmen, beat the corrupt officials, and the most important thing was to have a grudge with Zhou Yi and Zhang Yuan, which is really killing multiple birds with one stone.
Compared with Zhu Di's joy, Hu Ye has a headache at the moment.
He was brutally taken to Zhang's mansion by Zhang Fu, and then told the story of Journey to the West to a bunch of little dolls to the Zhang family.
Hu Ye's storytelling skills are famous, and they are all casual in front of Zhu Di, so those little dolls worship Hu Ye to the extreme. So for the sake of his glorious image, Hu Ye had to reluctantly tell them the story of Journey to the West.
This talk is ten days, except for returning to the house at night, Hu Ye spends time in Zhang's mansion during the day. The group of women in the family are complaining, are you the young master of the Zhang Mansion or the young master of the Nameless Mansion.
Today I talked about the bridge of three dozen white bone spirits.
The four masters and apprentices were trekking through mountains and rivers, Tang Seng rode a white dragon horse, and Zhu Bajie Sha Seng followed closely from left to right. The pioneer is walking ahead, he is the Monkey King who subdued demons and subdued demons and made trouble in the Heavenly Palace. The scenery on the road to the west is good, and there are good scenery along the way. But I saw that the white clouds surrounded the mountain peaks, and the pines and cypresses were green and maple leaves were red. Strange flowers and plants are undefeated, and the flowing water of the mountain stream is tinkling. The mountains and rivers are as magnificent and beautiful as day, and the four of them walk in this painting. ”
The masters and apprentices walked forward, raised their heads sharply, yo! I saw a high mountain crossing the road. This mountain, with its rocky and steep cliffs, is full of cliffs and clouds. Sun Wukong sniffed the demonic aura with his nose, and he shouted loudly with his hand on the pergola: "Master, junior brother, pay attention, there are goblins in this place." "Monk Sha heard that he unpacked his bag and waved his Zen staff, and Zhu Bajie raised his chest as soon as he raked it, and the fat on his stomach was a few pounds."
……
……
"Wukong apprentice, I shouldn't have mistaken the monster for being a good person, and I shouldn't have driven you back to the Huaguo Mountain Water Curtain Cave, and I regret it now."
Hu Ye said that Tang Seng blamed Sun Wukong for mistake, and after he brought Sun Wukong back to Huaguo Mountain, when he was about to be boiled and eaten by the white bone essence, he saw that the faces of several little dolls listening to the story were all the same.
"This damn monk, now that he knows that he regrets it, why did he go earlier. If you had listened to Sun Wukong's words earlier, how could you end up like this. I think he deserves it, and Sun Wukong will not come back to save him. ”
Yingxue, as the eldest of several people, was the first to speak, and her angry expression strongly expressed her dissatisfaction with Tang Seng.
"Zhu Bajie is really useless, he knows how to divide his luggage in case of trouble, and he should let the white bone spirit eat him. Monk Sha is loyal, but it's too useless. Brother Ye, you should make Monk Sha more powerful, so that you can keep Tang Seng safe all the way. ”
Zhang Yu's second son, Zhang Hui (ni), opened his mouth and said that he was not interested in the life or death of Tang Seng, but was very concerned about the strength of these apprentices.
As for Zhang Yu's third son, Zhang Yu (Yue), he is only three years old now, and he is completely unable to express his opinion. I just felt that the words that popped out of Hu Ye's mouth were very exciting, because his brothers and sisters listened very seriously, so he also listened very seriously.
Zhang Fu's eldest daughter Xiao Ya learned to walk, and she didn't even know what Hu Ye said, she just followed the blind coaxing.
"Saren, what do you think? Is this Tang Seng saved or not? Hu Ye asked Saren, who was listening attentively.
Saren was soft-hearted, of course he didn't want Tang Seng to be eaten by the white bone essence, so he said, "Young master, although Tang Seng is very hateful, he was deceived by the white bone essence, and he can't be eaten by the white bone essence." Otherwise, Sun Wukong's previous efforts would be in vain. ”
"What do you think, dog? Is this Tang Seng saved or not? Hu Ye asked the dog next to him again.
When the dog first came to Zhang's Mansion, he didn't speak to anyone, but just read with these little dolls very seriously, and also read some books by himself. Since Hu Ye started telling stories, the dog has been completely immersed in the shijie of Journey to the West, and every time Hu Ye has not finished speaking, he knows the end of the story.
"Sun Wukong will definitely come back to save Tang Seng, this is his mission, and this is also the use of his powerful liliang. If Tang Seng dies, his liliang has nowhere to play, and he can't be restrained, he will definitely stage a situation of making trouble in the Heavenly Palace again, and Zuihou will also be suppressed by Wuzhishan. As for the White Bone Spirit, she will definitely be destroyed, because she is not strong enough, and she has no background, so there is only one way to destroy. The dog analyzed Hu Ye.
Hu Ye couldn't believe that this was popping out of the dog's mouth, you must know that the dog is only ten years old, and he can read Journey to the West so thoroughly. When I was so old, I was still playing in the mud in the field.
Listening to Zhang Fu on the side, he was also stunned by the dog's answer, he thought that the dog had really been buried before, such a talent had been in a noodle stall for so many years, and if he cultivated it, maybe he would become the second Hu Ye.
"If you can't save it, you should let the monk die, and the monk with eyes and no beads deserves to die." Faced with the dog's answer, Yingxue argued unreasonably.
"Yingxue, don't mess around!" Zhang Fu roared at Yingxue with a dark face, his sister is too unreasonable, he doesn't know who he needs to rectify it, and how to marry it in the future.
For such a problem, Hu Ye has never been worried, no matter how unreasonable Yingxue is, it will be Zhu Di's dish in the future. He is more worried about whether there will be a problem with Sun Wukong, if he really follows the meaning of Yingxue, where will there be a story to tell in the future.
So at the same time that Yingxue was angry, Sun Wukong appeared on the stage, rescued Tang Seng, and killed the white bone spirit. So the story of the three dozen white bone spirits ended perfectly.
