Chapter 396: Gathering in the Guest Hall
Jin Yuanjing washed his feet, pointed to Runye and said to him, "Eh, you can help me get a foot cloth." ”
Runye stood up helplessly, walked to the basin stand, took off the white cloth on it, and threw it directly to Jin Yuanjing.
As a result, this loss was not lost, and it was directly thrown into Jin Yuanjing's face.
"Eh, what are you doing?"
Runye really had the heart to kill him.
"Jin Yuanjing, you remember it for me, now I am the abbot of Chaoyunguan, let the palm teach you to take the foot cloth, be careful that I will ask someone to tie you up in the future and stuff beef into your mouth."
"You, you, you're a little too vicious!"
Jin Yuanjing pointed at Runye, and he was not calm anymore, so he threw the cloth towel after wiping his feet into Runye's face, but was caught by Runye's backhand.
"You dare to attack me with a secret weapon, okay Jin Yuanjing, you are also a long skill, and when I succeed to the head of the sect, you will make you want to cry without tears."
Jin Yuanjing rushed up all of a sudden, pressed Runye on the Luohan bed, and the two of them made a mess, like siblings, and a cheerful atmosphere came out of the room.
The next day, the earliest one to wake up was Runye, he didn't wake up more people, but just woke up Jin Yuanjing.
He said yesterday that he was going to attend the morning class, but when he remembered it at night, he didn't know where the other Taoist priests lived, and it was not easy to sleep early in the morning, so let everyone fall asleep.
Jin Yuanjing was not so lucky.
As his "little follower" in the future, he will also be together in the morning class. So Runye dragged Jin Yuan Sedum and got up when it was bright.
The two of them went to Sanguan Temple together.
After entering the main hall, he hurriedly scrubbed, incense, and recited scriptures.
It was not too early to finish these things, and when they returned to Zhu's house, they found that there was no one.
So, the two of them automatically walked to the guest hall, because at this time everyone had already gathered very actively in the guest hall.
The Zhu family's guest hall is not big, because there are not many guests in it on weekdays, and the Zhu Hongyu family is not a particularly large family, just an ordinary well-off family.
But now it's different from the past, the people who run the night and Lu Mingci together, there are really a lot of them, and they gather together in the guest hall.
Because there were a lot of people who came all at once, and even Zhu Hongyu's family didn't have enough cups for drafting, which made May so busy that she wanted to cry.
But eventually all of them found a place to sit and a cup to drink. There are four stools on the main seat, which are the core force of this operation of the Zhu Hongyu case.
Runye and Jin Yuanjing walked into the gate together, and saw that the hall was full of people, including those brought by Lu Mingci and those from Wudang Mountain, and they sighed in their hearts.
"Yo, it's really lively, just like the New Year."
After speaking, Runye lifted his robe and sat in the middle position, while Jin Yuanjing sat in the most remote position.
Almost at the same time as they sat down in the night, Lu Mingci and Zhu Zhanao entered the door, and when they saw the full house, they thought it was quite neat.
He sat next to Runye, and Zhu Zhanao sat next to Lu Mingci, also by the side.
Zhu Hongyu probably never dreamed that her little lie would stir up the public, so that the core of the entire Hua Dynasty would gather in the small guest hall of their house.
Tea was served to four people in May, and the talks officially began.
Lu Mingci looked around, there were old faces and new faces, but he knew that they were all reliable people.
"Dao Chief, Brother Jinyiwei, were you okay yesterday? Anyway, I think the Zhu family gave me a feeling of being at home. ”
And so did the people, and said so.
Of course, last night was really a nostalgic night for Runye.
"I didn't introduce it yesterday, my surname is Lu, and my common name is Lu Mingci. Zhu Hongyu and I have known each other for a long time, I met her in Yunmeng Town in June last year, at that time she went to treat the plague, and then I met Rundao Chang, who is also half an acquaintance of everyone. This time, I brought my brothers over, just to save Zhu Hongyu, who was not angry, and a few Taoist leaders should have heard about it halfway, right? ”
Runye let out a "hmm", he looked at Lu Mingci with serious eyes, and let out a long sigh.
"It's really uneasy, I heard that I was dead halfway, which scared me, and I thought that I couldn't know about my death, so I quickly inquired around and found the place where Zhu Hongyu was being held."
Lu Mingci and the others laughed at the time, and Runye thought: Don't I want to lose face?
Everyone also finished laughing, and it was time to get down to business, but it was Runye, the spiritual leader, who opened his mouth first.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Taoist ancestor once said that I have the three treasures to hold and protect only, one is said to be kind, the second is thrifty, and the third is not to dare to be the first in the world. The first thing we should do is to be compassionate. Zhu Hongyu is my old acquaintance with Jin Daochang, she is good at medical skills, and she opened a small clinic before smallpox arrived in Yunmeng Town this time. The disease of smallpox is actually preventable and incurable, and Jin Dao Chang understands this better than anyone else. ”
Jin Yuanjing stood up and saluted everyone present.
"At the end of the Dao, Jin Yuanjing, I have a salute to all Taoist friends and officials. After Miss Zhu and I escaped from Kongtong Mountain in Liangzhou, we arrived in Baoji. Smallpox was rampant in Baoji, and Miss Zhu taught me a way, we tried to vaccinate all the children in the city, and none of those vaccinated children had smallpox! This method has been tested and effective, but I don't know why Miss Zhu was arrested and imprisoned by the county officials for this reason. ”
After speaking, Jin Yuanjing sat down helplessly, and everyone also questioned how this female doctor who didn't let her eyebrows provoke the county magistrate and how she became a female prisoner. The most important thing is why so many people are willing to go to the soup for her!
At this time, Zhu Zhanao stood up, because he had already heard the second sister say it yesterday after all the causes of this matter.
He also bowed to the crowd.
"I am Zhu Hongyu's younger brother, and I know the things about my sister best. I also listened to the news brought by the chief of Rundao. The reason for the incident was that my sister and Boss Du, who was in the medicinal herb business in the city, opened a small clinic together, and they went to the county official together, hoping that the county official could give them publicity, but the county official did not pay attention to it on time. Half a month later, smallpox swept over, and the only son of the county official also fell ill. He carried the child to his sister's clinic, hoping that her sister would save her life. But my sister can only prevent and not save people, so Boss Du took the child to the big pharmacy to see a doctor, but the child was not saved after all. The county lord has the power to rule a county, so he imprisoned his sister and Boss Du, just because he felt that his son would make everyone uncomfortable. The final result was that my sister was imprisoned, and the county official wanted to execute my sister in the lobby, and my sister was afraid so she made up a story about her murder. She hopes to be involved in the murder case and let the master of the criminal department above investigate, but there are obviously many people who are willing to administer justice for her, and Lord Lu is one of them. Master Lu and I were originally in Bianjing, and after knowing about my sister's affairs, we hurriedly ran back. ”
So the topic returned to Lu Mingci, and Lu Mingci felt a lot more relaxed when he said this.
He didn't need to explain too much, he was made clear by Zhu Zhanao.
I have to say that Zhu Zhanao's literary style is really good, if it weren't for the emperor's edict, he would have been able to get good results by taking the imperial examination by himself.
The Zhu family is really talented, not just a vermilion.
Lu Mingci continued: "The matter is already here, what we have to do after that is to get through the relationship, wait for the people from the Criminal Department to come down, and of course go to the court together." I am the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard, although the official certificate has not yet come down, but the old identity of a thousand households is still counted. After that, I hope everyone will unite as one, get Zhu Hongyu out first, and get this county official who eats people and doesn't spit out bones. ”
Everyone expressed their loyalty one after another, and the four of them felt a lot more relieved when they heard it.
In particular, the Taoist priests of Wudang Mountain have been practicing the martial arts of Wudang Mountain since they were young, some use swords, some use dust, and some play Tai Chi.
Although the weapons used by everyone are different, their hearts are gathered together at this time.
After all, Zhu Hongyu didn't do anything wrong in this matter, she was implicated to save people, and she shouldn't be treated like this.
"I have a question." At this time, Torrent Ran stood up.
He is an older cultivator in Wudang Mountain, and his relationship with Jin Yuanjing is extremely close, and it is precisely because of the three words "Jin Yuanjing" that he left Wudang Mountain, where he has lived for most of his life.
At the same time, not saying goodbye to the palace is another disguised expulsion of oneself from the mountain gate.
"Excuse me."
Runye stood up, ready to accept Torrent's question.
"What I want to ask is this Lord Lu."
Hong Liuran didn't give Runye any face at all, or he could only ask Lu Mingci this question.
"Excuse me."
Lu Mingci stood up, showing his full respect for Torrent Ran.
"The question I want to ask is very simple, you are Jinyiwei, right? This county official was also selected by the government, right? So why did you elect this county magistrate? ”
The question is acute, but it's also realistic.
Lu Mingci stood in place, he didn't talk like before.
It can be said that this question is asked to the root.
Although Jinyiwei is not a ministry, he doesn't care about the selection and deployment of officials at all, but when this question is asked to the head of the ministry, it is estimated that they can't answer it.
To be honest, Lu Mingci still wanted to defend the ministry.
"I don't care about the officer's deployment, but I can try to answer your questions. Because Liu Shaotong was edited by the Hanlin Academy according to my understanding, the person in charge of this work is the emperor's official documents, and he has no real power, only reputation. The reason why this Taoist priest practiced was mostly deep in the mountains and old forests, and the reason for this was to reject potential temptations. For Liu Shaotong, giving him a position as a county official with real power, although it is only a small county official, it is also a power that he has never gotten. That's how man changes, because he has a lot of power! These changes are beyond our control. But if we find a problem, we should pull him down as soon as possible, instead of continuing to let him play for the tiger. ”
Lu Ming's rhetoric was neat, but Hong Liuran looked at him with cold eyes.
"Wouldn't it be better if Yan Guo was to take care of the affairs of the Hua Dynasty? Will this kind of county official appear? ”
