Chapter 1014: The Great Good Man (2)
Wang Dashan was obviously relieved, and said with a smile: "That's good." Go and rest. ”
"Yes." The servant respectfully retreated.
Wang Dashan said to Qin Yining: "It's not early, why don't you go and rest for a while?" ”
Qin Yining shook his head, "Thank you for your kindness, but I'm not tired yet." ”
Although her dress was stained with blood and her long hair was scattered, these were not important matters in her opinion, and she was not at ease about putting the young man alone in front of Wang Dashanren.
Wang Dashan also seemed to see Qin Yining's concerns, smiled bitterly, and stopped persuading.
The bright silk lamp outlined the thin and pale outline of the unconscious youth, and Wang Dashan looked down and opened his mouth for a long time.
"Once upon a time, there was a man who was born in the countryside, his father was a down-and-out scholar, and his mother died young. He grew up in poverty, and when he was seven or eight years old, his biological father also died, so he became a small shop boy. ”
Qin Yining looked at Wang Dashanren and did not interrupt his words, listening to his slightly hoarse voice.
"He is a smart boy, because he was enlightened by his father since he was a child, although he is not talented, at least literacy and accounting are not a problem, so he is very popular with the shopkeeper in the shop. Later, due to the war, the shop could not be opened, in order to make a living, he became a businessman, traveled to the north and south, saw a lot of the world, experienced a lot of hardships, because of the wider and wider vision, the brain is also flexible, his business is getting bigger and bigger.
It's just that the world is chaotic, and he is a businessman, and he has not married.
He was twenty-seven years old. When I walked to a wealthy county town, I met a young lady when I was doing business. He was quite handsome, and the young lady took the initiative to contact him a few times, and later a matchmaker came to kiss.
However, the young lady was the daughter of a large local family, and his father originally disdained the merchant, but after several twists and turns, he proposed to let the merchant join their family.
"The businessman is used to wandering, there are no relatives in his hometown, and he really loves Miss, so he agreed to join the family. became the son-in-law of that big family, and got the support of his father-in-law Lao Taishan, and he was like a tiger in business, set up his own door, and created a great career, but in a few years, the income he earned was thicker than the family foundation of his father-in-law's old Taishan's family. ”
Wang Dashanren raised his head and looked at the bamboo embroidery on the tent, and continued: "Originally, he and the young lady were still very affectionate. It's just that no matter how deep his feelings are, he can't help but time to grind, and he can gradually feel that Miss Dao has begun to perfunctory to him.
One year he went on a long trip, and when he returned to the county seat, he picked up a young man who was unconscious, the young man was wearing a long robe with a collar, and he was barefoot and stepping on straw sandals, and he was not dressed like a Tatar, nor like a Fanbang like Baiyue, and he also had a strong smell of the sea, and he knew at a glance that he was not a Han.
The merchant was moved with compassion, rescued the young man, and sent him a doctor to heal him, and fed him for a few days. When the young man had recovered, he bowed down to the merchant and often followed him like a guard. At that time, the merchant thought, maybe this young man wanted to be a guard to protect him, so as to repay him for saving his life? ”
Qin Yining had already opened his eyes at this time and looked at the unconscious young man on the bed.
Wang Dashan continued: "The merchant originally thought that the young man was an honest man, and he had martial arts on him, he often did business, and it was also a good thing to have a strong martial artist around him to protect him, anyway, he would not treat the young man badly, so he acquiesced to his approach.
"Who knew that only one day later, something big happened to the merchant's house."
Wang Dashanren suddenly looked back at Qin Yining, his eyes were dark, and his voice trembled, "That night, the merchant actually found out that his wife was committing adultery!" He has been single-minded towards his wife all these years, and even if her wife is cold to him, he has never thought much about it. At first glance, I found that she was rolling with the adulterer, and immediately her anger and blood surged, and she had to fight hard to catch the adulterer.
"It's just that the merchant is so angry that he forgets that he is not a master, but he can do the kung fu of a three-legged cat, and in two or three strokes he is tied up by her wife and the adulterer.
"From the conversation between her wife and the adulterer, he realized that his wife had been having an affair with the adulterer for a long time, and his father-in-law, Lao Taishan, of the local clan, also knew about it, and even connived at his daughter to act like this, and wanted to rob his family wealth!"
"He already has too much wealth in his hands. His father-in-law was a greedy man, so he and his wife made this plan, wanting to take this opportunity to kill people and justifiably get his property.
The merchant was in despair. But just as his wife and adulterer were about to kill him, the young man he had rescued suddenly appeared
"He's extremely fast. Before the merchant could stop him, the adulterer* who was about to kill him was killed by the young man, and the merchant was almost stupid, and it took him a long time to react after he was untied from the ropes, and before he could think of a solution and a solution, his father-in-law came with a large group of people as if he had planned it and surrounded their mansion.
The merchant's father-in-law found his daughter's corpse and questioned him sharply, and the clan elders and guards who came with him were also aggressive. The merchant was shocked and angry, and there was a deep unwillingness. If his father-in-law succeeds, he will not be concerned if he loses his life, and he will not be concerned if he loses his family property, but he really can't swallow this breath.
So, in his haze, the merchant blamed his wife's death directly on the young man he had picked up. said that he kindly picked up someone, but he didn't expect him to commit murder.
His father-in-law probably didn't want his daughter's affair with others to be heard, and his daughter was already dead, and he still needed to think about it in the long run, so he didn't immediately investigate it, and he ostensibly believed the businessman's words.
"The merchant's father-in-law is going to send the young man to the government. Although the merchant sacrificed his youth for revenge, he was uneasy in his heart. Especially when his father-in-law ordered someone to arrest the young man, the young man looked into the merchant's eyes in disbelief......
"The businessman will never forget that look in his life, the look in his heart after being betrayed. The young man was such a strong martial artist, but he suddenly felt like he was dead, and he didn't resist, and let people arrest him.
The merchant did not want the young man to die, so he persuaded his father-in-law not to report to the government, saying that it would not be better to keep the man, and that it would be a relief to die. His father-in-law lost his daughter, so he naturally wanted to find an outlet to vent, so he agreed to this request.
The merchant's father-in-law then annexed the merchant's property little by little, and at the same time ordered people to torture the young people who were wandering in the streets. He told everyone that the young man was an ungrateful wolf cub, a man who did not deserve to eat people, and that he was inferior to a pig and a dog.
But only the merchant himself knew that the young man was a loyal man who knew how to repay his kindness, and although he was deaf and dumb, he knew everything, and he was rewarded by the merchant's life-saving grace, so he took the merchant as the lord in return, and he saved the merchant's life, and killed the man who wanted to kill him for the merchant, but he bit the young man back. The young man was betrayed by his trusted master, and he was so lost!
"People who value morality and kindness, regard these as beliefs and beliefs, and after being betrayed, they are disheartened, allowed to be bullied, and have their arms and legs broken."
Wang Dashan looked at Qin Yining with a smile, and said in a calm voice: "It's been more than four years, the merchant's property has almost been annexed, he is alone, he can't fight the big power of the clan, and he is powerless to resist at all." He lost his wife and family, all because of his father-in-law's greed, and he was also innocently betrayed!
And what he has experienced, don't the people around him know? Are those who have seen his inheritance change hands unaware of anything?
"Those people just got more or less benefits from his father-in-law, and they didn't want to pay much attention to it.
"The businessman is worthy of everyone, he has done everything in his life, he is frank and open, and the only thing he is sorry for is the young man who has been abused for four years."
Wang Dashan looked at the unconscious man on the bed, and his voice became softer and softer: "So, just now the grass people said that the princess is a good master." If only he had met you sooner. ”
Qin Yining pursed his lips and said nothing.
The room was quiet and you could hear the sound of breathing.
After being silent for a long time, Wang Dashan suddenly stood up, turned to Qin Yining with his hand, and said with a smile: "For the sake of that loyal person, the grass people will tell the princess one more thing." ”
"What's the matter?" Qin Yining's voice was a little hoarse.
Wang Dashan said: "The matter that the people have not come to Huichuan County, where is the cause of your Tao?" Actually, this was my idea. ”
"What?" Qin Yining stood up suddenly, and his voice couldn't help but rise.
"Don't be surprised, this was really my idea. Although Cheng Zhixian has an inextricable relationship with the Lumen family, you may not know that Cheng Zhixian is still a bad person who is dedicated to the country and the people. ”
Qin Yining was dumbfounded and slowly stood up.
Wang Dashan said: "Cheng Zhi County Guandi reported that there will be a big flood this year, and the big flood will be followed by a big drought, and within a year, there will be a hunger in the south!" At the beginning of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the treasury was empty, and the internal treasury was limited. The Son of Heaven did not consider the question of how to provide disaster relief, but built a large number of buildings to repair the imperial tomb. The limited silver is not used to save people, but it is used to do such things, and Cheng Zhixian's hair is half white. ”
The corners of Wang Dashanren's lips hung up with a smile, and when he looked closely, he was a little mocking.
"I have known Cheng Zhixian for a short time, but I am honored to be regarded as a confidant by Cheng Zhixian, I said this during a meal, Cheng Zhixian was worried that the famine would come, and the court would not be able to provide disaster relief, but I was afraid that the country that had just stabilized would be unstable again, and it would be the people who would suffer.
"It can be seen that Cheng Zhixian is a person who would rather sacrifice his ego to save the people, and I naturally admired it very much, so I gave him an idea: to slow down the construction process of the imperial mausoleum. And the most effective way is to replace an imperial mausoleum official. As long as there is a problem with the imperial mausoleum official, the imperial court must change the superintendent, and there will be no one who cannot be done in a year and a half. And a year and a half later, the disaster in the south has occurred, and the holy silver naturally does not need to be on the people. ”
