Chapter Twenty-Six: One Plan Is Enough (Part II)
In the lobby of the Yamen of the state city, which was deliberately transformed into a living room, the heads of the thirteen wealthy families together, together with the old lady of the Si family, surrounded Si Huaizhi, who had just come in to see the ceremony, in the middle, but the atmosphere in the field was not as angry as before, after all, it was in front of the juniors, and they should also pay attention to basic recuperation.
In the end, the old lady of the Si family coughed lightly twice, and after attracting everyone's attention, her mouth moved slightly, and then she slowed down her tone, tried her best to appear kind, and asked softly: "Good boy, grandpa asked you, this news has been handed out." ”
Si Huaizhi didn't raise his head, but just bowed to the other party again, but it was only half, and he was directly stopped by the old lady with a faucet, only to hear the old man say in a slightly eager tone: "We all know that you are a good boy who knows etiquette and observes etiquette, but this is an extraordinary period, don't delay, you can concisely tell all the details to your uncles." ”
First of all, the Si family itself is the leader of the joint Yongzhou family tyrants, and the old lady of the Si family has been reluctant to take the initiative to delegate power, so among the people who came today, his generation is the largest, and everyone else can only be regarded as his juniors, so it is just Si Huaizhi's uncle, as for those famous families who are in turmoil with them, they are not qualified to sit with these fourteen people, they are all looking forward to one of the families, so what these people represent today is not only their own family, but a complex interest group with huge vassals。
Si Huaizhi first calmly agreed, and then hurriedly said: "The news has been spread along the post station the day before yesterday, it is a fast horse to expeditious, except for some remote places, it will take some time to arrive, and the sixteen people in the vicinity have already received the news." ”
Marching and fighting, risking one's life, that is the most troublesome dirty work, almost all of them are done by the side children of the clan or the descendants of the concubine, after all, the life of the sister-in-law is the most precious, the son of the daughter can't sit down, it is impossible to run to play with these mud-legged people, it is not worth it, not to mention that they will be the commander of the whole family in the future, it is not necessary, and it is impossible to do the work of a soldier or a general.
The old lady of the Si family bowed slightly, and then continued to ask, "Okay, do you have a reply?"
Si Huaizhi immediately nodded and said, "Yes, these sixteen people, fifteen of them have already replied, and they should be on their way back now." ”
This is a helpless thing, the so-called people's hearts are unpredictable, and even the Si family itself cannot ensure that these people will not mess around after knowing the decree of the imperial court, so this time they must be recalled first to eliminate the influence of the imperial court on them, so that they can rest assured that they can go out again, even if this move will make people feel disgusted and not trusted, but they still have to do it, because they can't gamble, and they don't dare to gamble.
After hearing this news, the old lady of the Si family immediately breathed a sigh of relief, not only him, but in fact everyone else was also like this, his expression eased a lot, he was already a little more smiling, and he looked at each other, and he could see that he was temporarily relieved.
To tell the truth, they have no way to take the court's desperate plan at all, they can only hope that these people can remember the family's earnest teachings and dedication to cultivating them, hoping that their vision can be long-term, they can realize the importance of bloodline, and can understand how everything they have today came from, where the foundation is, and what the family means to them, but in fact, they themselves did not have much hope before, and it is expected that they can come back a few people, which is actually a kind of luxury, but they never thought that in the end, only one road of people did not come back, which is really an unexpected joy。
Thinking of this, the old lady of the Si family coughed lightly twice, and then asked, "Which way is it?"
Si Huaizhi hurriedly bowed his hand, lowered his head, and replied respectfully: "Back to the words of the ancestor, it is Yang Jian who was sent to attack Wanxian. ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone in the audience, except for Si Huaizhi, turned their heads to look at the head of the Yang family sitting on the chair, and many people's expressions were quite teasing, but when they thought that everyone was in the same boat after all, they needed to help each other, so they didn't speak in the end.
However, the head of the Yang family made a big red face first, raised his hands high, arched his hands in all directions, covered his face, and sighed helplessly: "Alas, it is my fault that I am not strict in governing the family, and this time I made you laugh." ”
The old lady of the Si family knocked on the dragon head crutch on the ground, and after everyone turned their heads, she hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, the situation has greatly exceeded our expectations, this is a good thing, it shows that the children still understand who is the relative and who is the enemy, I think the head of the Yang family does not have to blame himself, the child is just temporarily confused by the traitor, at least he is still surnamed Yang, or the Yang family, what else does the head of the Yang family need to worry about?"
As soon as his words fell, the others couldn't help but start talking, obviously after learning the news, they were in a good mood and talked a lot.
"What I'm saying is, heh, I was a little worried before, it seems that the children are still sensible!"
"That's it! It is simply impossible for the imperial court to divide us by such despicable means!"
"Bloodline is the most important thing! Bloodline is our bond!"
"Then don't worry about it now, I want to see what else the imperial court can do!"
"Since it's okay, let's hurry up and urge the children, our subordinates have to speed up their progress, we can't lose to those old guys in Jiangzhou!"
"What I'm saying is, let's go, that's the foundation of the human race, his surname Gu wants to dig up the roots of the human race, then God, the ancestors and the ancestors, can they succeed?"
Everyone kept talking, and the atmosphere seemed to be more and more active, but at this moment, a very noisy sound suddenly came from the door, as if there was some conflict, the old lady of the Si family raised his eyebrows, and the sense of majesty that had been in the top position for a long time and held great power naturally emanated, and the beard on his face trembled, and two words suddenly spurted out of his throat, and the breath was even more abundant than that of young people.
"Silence!"
Without waiting for the people outside to reply, Si Huaizhi suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Grandpa, I think it's them who have arrived!"
The closest person naturally arrives first, which is also reasonable.
Speaking of those who are loyal to the family and are willing to come back at this time, there are many smiles in the eyebrows and eyes of everyone in the audience, and they are obviously very satisfied with the choices of these juniors.
There is no way, the court's desperate plan really scared them, and even frightened them, otherwise they would not have been excited like that before, the more so, it means that they are more afraid, and now it can be such a result, it is really a surprise, this can only say that their respective family education inheritance is not wrong, the children can not be blinded by the enemy, distinguish right from wrong, and remain loyal to the family, that is all good education, they are not the pillars of the family, many people have made up their minds, these people who come back the fastest will tilt resources in the future and focus on training。
"Coming back?"
When the old lady heard this, he was so happy that his eyebrows and eyes were bent, he held the dragon's head crutch with both hands, trembling, and wanted to get up from the chair, "It's okay to be back, it's okay to be back!"
"Grandpa, slow down!"
Seeing this, Si Huaizhi hurriedly took a few steps forward and held him up before the subordinates came over.
Seeing that the old men had already gotten up, the others could not sit still, so they all stood up together, and waited quietly in the middle of the hall.
As the head of the family, in charge of the life and death of tens of thousands of people, they can take the initiative to stand up and wait this time, thinking that for those juniors, it is already a great honor, a gift, not to mention going out to greet, it is simply impossible, no matter how they are, at least they have to take care of the majesty of the head of the family, the other party is a junior, where do they have a reason to go out to greet.
But I never thought that the people who came in later did not see the head of the house waiting as they expected, so they were very moved, so that the scene with tears in their eyes, the people who came in, all of them had extremely indifferent expressions on their faces, even with a hint of sarcasm, and they were all dressed in military uniforms, holding swords, and after walking in one after another, they didn't speak, just stood together, looking at this side, as if they were facing each other in the air.
In such a strange scene, there were still people who didn't see the clues, but greeted enthusiastically: "This journey is tiring, the children are all hard, come on, get hot water for the young masters to wash their faces, and serve the young masters to take off their armor first!"
When the people on the side were about to get busy, there was a sudden shout outside the door, and the fourteen people standing in the lobby were very familiar with this voice, because this was the voice of the original owner of this place, that is, the voice of Yongzhou Mu, who was personally sealed by the imperial court.
"Don't bother. ”
As soon as the words fell, the fifteen people who had just come in suddenly stood in two columns, revealing a sturdy man in the center, who had just walked in from the outside, seeing that his clothes were covered with stains, and his eyebrows were also a little tired, but his eyes were brighter than ever.
As the pastor of Yongzhou, he is responsible for guarding one side, and the task is extremely important, not to mention that he has lost the state city, and he has been captured and imprisoned by the traitors, which is simply a great shame, if it were not for the heart and mind to recapture the state city for the imperial court, maybe he would have committed suicide in the house a long time ago.
But today, today's situation is different, today is the most proud day of his days!
"As a citizen of Daliang, you don't want to serve the country, but when the country is in danger, you take advantage of the situation, commit chaos, and have no king's law, it is really an unforgivable crime, but the matter is serious, and once it should be judged, it will be completed by the Qin messenger sent by the imperial court after the war, and now, the heads of the family, please!"
He grinned, turned sideways, and stretched out his hand towards the stunned crowd in the center of the hall, making a look of inviting you into the urn, with an expression of indescribable pleasure.
