Chapter 2095: A Calculation
"If Miss Lin is like in the past, she will be able to talk to Lao Yu about tea, maybe she can still have a chat or two, but if she mentions the affairs of the court, Lao Yu has already withdrawn from the court, and Lao Yu can't help!" Mr. Bai said lightly, no longer interested in talking, and picked up the teacup to signal the expulsion.
Tong Dacai pursed his lips, and saw that the master did not move, like a wooden pestle and did not move.
Lin Mei not only didn't get annoyed, but smiled: "Some people are dead but still live in the hearts of many people, while some people live as if they are dead." Although Mr. has long since retired from the court, he is concerned about the ambition of the people, and he will not want to be born as rotten as dead wood. ”
These words were light and indifferent at first glance, but they had a deep meaning after a careful aftertaste, but such words came out of a woman's mouth, which made Mr. Bai look at her again with admiration.
Mr. Bai gently put down the teacup, stroked his gray beard, looked at her with deep eyes and said, "You and I have known each other for many years, and you don't need to talk to me, what do you want to know and say directly?" ”
Lin Mei was not in a hurry and gave a big gift, and then said: "Mr. Wise, my father is now unjustly locked up in prison, the little woman is really desperate, I heard that Fu Shilang of Dali Temple was once your student, and asked Bai Lao for guidance." ”
"The matter of the Lin family, the old man has also heard about it, and it is not you who is wronged or not, and it is not up to you to say that the grain shop has nothing to do with your family, this is not foolable." Bai Lao said with a smile.
Lin Mei took out a handkerchief and sniffled, and said: "Mr. is aware of everything, the little girl doesn't dare to hide anything, the grain shop was opened by my stepmother Zhou and the Shen family in partnership with the Lin family, and my father and I only found out about the incident." Even if this matter is investigated, it is the responsibility of the two families, but it just so happened that my father was arrested and imprisoned...... The little girl went to theorize with witnesses and evidence, but Master Fu from Dali Temple said that if he didn't have 200,000 taels of silver, he refused to let my father go, and the little girl was really desperate and asked Mr. for guidance. ”
"It's ridiculous...... Old Mr. Bai stood up in shock, and looked at her thoughtfully, "The judgment of Dali Temple has always paid attention to the evidence is conclusive, and the judgment is fair, how can it be so nonsense!" 200,000 taels of silver, he dared to open his mouth like this, who gave him the guts. ”
Tong Dacai was suspicious in his heart, and was frightened by his sudden temper, and couldn't help but glance at his master: Master's trick is wonderful! According to Mr. Bai's integrity, he will not sit idly by.
"Bai Lao Mingjian, the account book of the grain shop is still stored in the mansion, you can find out when you check it!" Lin Mei looked left and right, and then said: "The little woman doesn't understand the laws of the Tang Dynasty, and she still wants to ask, which law did my father break and punish him so heavily?!" ”
Bai Lao was speechless when asked, dressed in a half-worn cotton robe, slightly hugging his back, looking like an old pedant, thinking about it, Fu Shaokun has been in the position of the waiter in Dali Temple for more than ten years, it is said that he will not be so confused, there is something hidden, and he said to the door with a calm face: "Come on, prepare the car." ”
"The little girl thanked Mr. Bai on behalf of the Lin family!" When Lin Mei heard this, she hurriedly blessed her.
……
"Folks, don't be impatient, please go back first, it's easy to talk about the porridge shed and discuss."
"Don't come to this set, if you want to send us away like this, no way, if the government refuses to open a porridge shed, then open a warehouse to release grain."
"Yes, open a warehouse and put grain ......"
When Qi Jusi heard this, he remembered the entourage who called himself Cao Shilang just now, and his face changed a little. It has always been easy to invite God, but it is difficult to send God, not to mention to coax away refugees, and when the government is also short of food, it happens that this goods rushed in, and said that Cao Shilang ordered the grain to be transported, and now he is detained in Hanjiacang, isn't this a matter of self-defeating? Now I can't even circle if I want to.
When Lin Mei and Bai Lao arrived, the government was already surrounded by crowds, and Qi Jusi and Fu Shaokun were fighting against it.
Liu Dawu saw the people getting off the carriage from afar, and the corners of his mouth inexplicably hooked up a smile, and he didn't know that she was satisfied with the gift she had just given.
Lin Mei accompanied Mr. Bai to listen to it, and couldn't help but wonder: Didn't Liu Dawu want to say that grain transportation was a private matter, and he was not allowed to publicize it to the outside world, and he tried to save people by himself? How did everyone know about it at this time?! But if you look closely, there are many local people among these refugees.
"Lord Qi, this official is still the emperor, so I will leave first." Fu Shaokun, this loach, is slippery and not lost, seeing that this matter is not easy to handle, he does not dare to force his head, and plans to take the opportunity to slip away.
"Master Fu, what are these words!" Qi Jusi's face sank suddenly, holding back his anger, he grabbed him, and read aloud: "Lord Fu is a new upstart in the court, he has to do errands, and the people have to take care of it. ”
With such a shout, Fu Shaokun, who didn't want to stir up, only felt that it was difficult to get out of the big face, and his mind changed, if it was rumored in the past that he was an official who was unjust, and he didn't care about the life and death of the people...... When Fu Shaokun thought of this, he couldn't help but shudder, snorted coldly, and when he raised his eyes, he happened to see the old man in the crowd, and he was overjoyed!
"Why is Mr. here, please sir!" As he spoke, he strode towards the old man.
Qi Jusi was also surprised when he saw Mr. Bai, but looking at Miss Lin beside him, she was calm again, thinking that she was begging for intercession.
Although the refugees did not know who this old gentleman was, it could be seen that the officials looked respectful, and the people, officers and soldiers who stood at the forefront of the way in the way consciously retreated to the side and made way for them.
In the crowd, some people recognized Bai Lao's identity, and in addition to exclaiming, they also took the initiative to ask for help: "Bai Lao is kind, save us, this day is almost unbearable." ”
Only then did someone inquire who it was.
Bai Lao was not affected by others, walked towards Fu Shaokun, and asked, "What is going on?" ”
Fu Shaokun didn't notice the person behind him, his eyes flashed slightly, he stretched out his head and whispered: "Sir, please take a step to speak, the students also arrived overnight, and I don't know the details!" ”
Fu Shaokun observed his expression as he spoke, although he said so, he had no confidence, but this was not his own errand, what did he have to do with himself! The matter of Luoyang should naturally be dealt with by the officials of Luoyang, and to give Mr. a breath, he also hopes that there will be someone to speak for him afterwards.
Seeing that he was still playing Tai Chi in front of him, Bai Lao suddenly frowned, and in the face of a familiar face, he felt that he was so unfamiliar. Annoyed: "It seems that the old man is really old, so I will personally ask them why they are blocking the gate of the mansion." ”
Qi judged the monkey-like elf and made a salute, "It's all because the official is ineffective, which alarmed Mr. Bai, and I hope that Mr. Bai will enter the palace to discuss today's matter together." ”
This attitude was respectful and modest, which made Bai Lao look at him differently, and nodded at him: "Lord Qi raises love, the old man is a cloth cloth, how dare you discuss with him, or you discuss, I will listen to it and have some knowledge." ”
"The lower officials don't dare, Lord Changshi, Lord Shaoyin and others are all discussing the matter in the palace, and I hope that Mr. Bai will go in and negotiate together."
The people behind him had already exercised patience, shouting "open the warehouse and release grain", and some reckless men turned their faces and rolled up their sleeves, as if they were going to rush in. But wave after wave of trouble, just those dozens of officers and soldiers, how long can they be guarded? !
Lin Mei was secretly anxious, if Bai Lao was invited into the mansion, then what else would he do, wouldn't it be a calculation in vain? ! Seeing that the scene was indeed a little chaotic, and he was afraid of hurting the innocent, he couldn't help but propose, "Your Excellency, it is better to appease the people's hearts first, and recommend a few representatives among the people to go in and negotiate together, such a disturbance will not be a long-term thing." ”
