Chapter 492: He shouldn't have died, but he died of illness
Yu Feng got off the carriage in Xiaodong City, an outer city, and first went to a teahouse to see Gu Qiuyue.
Originally, in view of the fact that Gu Qiuyue's previous matter of buying a house was handled very properly, it did not make Uncle Wei suspicious at all, and Yu Feng planned to see if Gu Qiuyue was usable.
This time, Gu Qiuyue inadvertently "handed over" Brother-in-law Zhou.
Gu Qiuyue is a businessman, and many gentlemen in Beijing have a relationship with wine and meat, and Zhou's brother-in-law has a banquet with several children of the family almost every day to celebrate the New Year, and it is certainly not uncommon to meet Gu Qiuyue once.
A businessman is already long-sleeved and good at dancing, and Gu Qiuyue was influenced by his cousin Yin Yong, and he has a little more Confucian demeanor than ordinary businessmen, and he established a friendship with Zhou's brother-in-law without any effort.
Gu Qiuyue had known Xie Qi for a long time, so she naturally had the opportunity for Xie Qi to get acquainted with Brother-in-law Zhou.
Although Brother-in-law Zhou is married to the daughter of the Su family, Erniang and Yijing are just cousins, separated by a layer, Xie Qi inquired again, Yu Feng and Brother-in-law Zhou did not have much contact, and he was a little moved at the moment.
I heard Gu Qiuyue mention the children's examination again, Brother-in-law Zhou admitted frankly that he was going to participate, and he would have to go through the imperial examination in the future, Xie Qi became more and more convinced that Brother-in-law Zhou and Yu Feng were not close, otherwise there was a word from the son, the Zhou family was originally also a eunuch, and he still had to waste his heart and try his best to fight for fame with the poor students?
Xie Qi inquired again, Brother-in-law Zhou is really a person who "cherishes beauty", the Zhou family style is upright, so although Brother-in-law Zhou pities the beauty, he is not better than those who do whatever they want to go to the fence to find flowers and ask willows, and after a few befriending, Xie Qi is even more sure that Brother-in-law Zhou is very cowardly, and pays attention to reputation, if something happens, the elders in the family will not be able to pass the test, not to mention that no matter if you want to take the path of the imperial examination, you have to be deprived of your reputation for the crime of "adulterous wife".
Compared with ordinary gentlemen, Brother-in-law Zhou does not dare to publicize his "notoriety".
There is simply no more suitable object for blackmail than Brother-in-law Zhou.
Xie Qi thought of Yu Feng's coldness, and he refused to help even his cousin, let alone Brother-in-law Zhou's brother-in-law.
The last scruple was dispelled.
Xie Qi finally introduced Hu San to Brother-in-law Zhou and got out by himself.
During the back and forth, Hu San and Zhou's brother-in-law also became acquainted, so they found an opportunity to rent a flower garden to set up a banquet, invite friends, and call a number of prostitutes to accompany them to drink and sing songs.
One of them was particularly weak, and there was always a pity between his eyebrows.
This woman naturally has a miserable life experience that destroys people's tears, and she said that when she came, the pear blossoms brought rain, which won a lot of pity from Brother-in-law Zhou, Hu San's layout, of course, will do some tricks and feet on the wine, and it didn't take long for Brother-in-law Zhou to get drunk, and was helped by the beauty to rest, Brother-in-law Zhou fell asleep next to the pillow, and he didn't return home this night.
Before dawn, he was woken up by a stick drink, Brother-in-law Zhou was surprised to find that he was sleeping on the bed naked, and there was a disheveled woman sitting in the corner of the bed crying, it was the one from yesterday, but there were two men standing next to the bed, claiming to be two brothers, one pointed at the woman but shouted at him: "What a cowardly madman, dare to rape my eldest sister-in-law, see if I don't peel your skin, and then send it to Shuntian Mansion to let the official convict you of adulterous wife." ”
At this time, most of them also knew that they had won the "fairy jump", and they would generally calm down and trade, and they would take the money to do something, because Xie Qi chose it properly, and most of the targets were people who cherished their reputation or did not dare to fight with the ruffians, or they were afraid that the elders in the family would punish them, and this kind of thing would also attract ridicule if it was publicized, so they all chose to suffer a dumb loss.
Some people also suspect that Shang Hu San has no evidence, and secondly, those who wear shoes have never been afraid of being barefoot, so they have not been investigated.
However, Brother-in-law Zhou is indeed too "pure" compared to those "happy old guests", and he was at a loss for a while, only arguing with others with his neck, saying that he did not commit adultery.
The two men were made impetuous, and finally lost their patience, and said bluntly that let Zhou's brother-in-law break the fortune and eliminate the disaster, otherwise he will be publicized to the official office, hehe, not to mention the bad reputation, bearing this crime, Zhou Gongzi still wants to enter the government through the imperial examination?
Brother-in-law Zhou was completely unconfident, thinking that his father and brother were strict, he didn't dare to make trouble, but because of his upright family style, he couldn't get the huge amount of money that the other party said.
Brother-in-law Zhou is too honest, he doesn't know that he has to bargain with others at this time, how can he give as much as people say they will lose.
So the only way that the helpless brother-in-law Zhou came up with was to let Erniang rescue him......
Erniang has a lot of dowry, and during this period of time, she persuaded him to concentrate on his studies, so that he could win a gold list title in the future, and he should not be disqualified from the imperial examination without even participating in the children's examination.
When the ruffians heard this, their hearts suddenly burst into joy, and they said that the surname Zhou was really a rare soft pestle, they opened their mouths, this person didn't know how to bargain, and when the house woman came, they were intimidated, and they didn't have to panic, this time they might have to make a fortune!
Erniang got Yijing's letter, knowing that this time was just a "lesson" arranged by her fifth brother-in-law, so she came to negotiate without saying a word.
said Yu Feng again, at this time, he heard Gu Qiuyue talk about Zhou's brother-in-law's predicament in the teahouse, but he didn't rush to collect the net, but asked Yin Yong - he heard Yijing say that the Queen Mother suddenly paid attention to Wei Zhao and An Ran, Wei Zhao didn't have to worry about it for the time being, Yu Feng analyzed that the Holy Lord would make a decision recently, it should be the Guild Zhuo's concubine, and Wei Zhao has not yet arrived, even if the Queen Mother intends to make her the third princess, she still needs to wait for a year, and there is a lot of room for change, but this one is safe...... Yu Feng also couldn't figure out the intentions of the Heavenly Family, for the sake of safety, of course, it was best to choose a marriage first.
Yin Yong is indeed the best candidate, but Yu Feng is cautious, and it is a lifelong event for Enron, so he is always unwilling to make a hasty decision.
At this time, I heard Gu Qiuyue say that because of the resumption of the imperial examination by the imperial court, Yin Yong studied hard behind closed doors, and wanted to be admitted to the prison exam, and hoped to be able to be the first Gongshi of Zhongdalong in the future, and he was very ambitious, and he felt satisfied in his heart.
After talking to Gu Qiuyue, the time was almost up, and Yu Feng took the car to relieve the siege.
In the alleys of Xiaodong City in the outer city, Erniang is in a big swing and is fighting against the ruffians.
When Yu Feng arrived, he happened to hear the scoundrel's weak words: "Yes, we think we are unlucky, I didn't expect the so-called famous family to be so unpopular, and would rather go out and ruin their reputation...... Zhou Gongzi, I really sympathize with you, marrying such a Hedong lion, regardless of your reputation. ”
Before these words fell, the little guy next to Erniang jumped to his feet and slapped him heavily: "Phew! A scoundrel, still dare to stir up trouble, did not listen to what my grandmother just said, if you let you blackmail the money today, it is the handle, and in the future, you will not let you pinch the handle to blackmail, and you will not be able to use the means on the table, but also dare to make it on our family Langjun, my family Langjun is a humble gentleman, how can he commit adultery, today you should be sent to justice and justice. ”
Of course, Erniang didn't go alone, Hao Hao brought a group of nurses, how could the two ruffians think that this time they met a person who was not convinced, the woman in the house was stronger than the masters, and now she was already anxious, and she gritted her teeth and mouthed: "I have a marriage letter from the yamen in my hand, and Zhou Gongzi was caught and raped in bed, even if I go to the yamen, you can't please it, am I barefoot and afraid that you will wear shoes, Zhou Gongzi has to think about it, you are a porcelain jade bottle, but it is not comparable to our pile of broken copper and broken tiles, broken and broken." ”
Yu Feng saw Brother-in-law Zhou, who was wearing a single coat, his hair was still scattered, his face was red and shrunk under a crooked neck tree, how could he still have the graceful demeanor of a scribe and elegant person.
Seeing the "miserable" beauty, her clothes were still untidy, and her face was full of pear blossoms with rain, and she was about to hit the wall headlong because of her "husband's" vision, but she fell down halfway because of her delicate body, clutching her chest and crying: "I live in the world without face...... You only forced me to death, even if you are a ghost, I will not let you go......"
Brother-in-law Zhou was frightened by this, and finally because of some of the courage that his wife had accumulated to support him, he was trying to persuade people to calm down, but in a blink of an eye, he saw the Qingyu nobleman who pushed the door in, standing in this simple courtyard like a pearl and jade wall, and immediately felt embarrassed, but he was afraid that even his toes would be red, and he was about to shrink to the foot of the wall in a hurry.
As soon as the ruffian saw the armor of more than ten swords hanging from his waist brought by the sudden nobleman, he stood all over the courtyard in a moment, and he was also dumbfounded, and he didn't dare to say anything threatening.
Yu Feng only glanced at the situation in the courtyard, and said with his hand: "Hu San has been sent to Shuntian Mansion, and it is estimated that Xie Qi has already been confessed to this time...... Gray crossing, someone sent one of the criminals who had blackmailed people to the official office. ”
Solve it neatly.
Only then did the Zhou family come back to their senses, and hurriedly took off their clothes and let Brother-in-law Zhou drape them on his body.
Poor brother-in-law Zhou was so embarrassed that he stammered his words, and he made a false gesture, and it was easy to finish the sentence: "Honest...... Seriously...... Mortified...... How, how, how did the son of the world come here? ”
However, Erniang was generous: "Husband should be ashamed, I advised you to stay away from those who only know how to spend time and drink, and concentrate on your studies...... I got the letter, I am convinced that even if the husband is playful, he is not a person who does evil and does not know the etiquette, and he will never do such a ridiculous thing, it should be a trap of the Chinese, I am a woman, and I am worried that the elders in the family will punish the husband after they know it, but if the villains take advantage of their wishes, let them pinch the handle of the husband and blackmail at every turn, it will be endless troubles, I have no other way, so I sent a message to the palace of the king of Chu, it should be the fifth sister to let the prince help. ”
Yu Feng was impressed by Erniang, and after these words, didn't let Brother-in-law Zhou be grateful?
Only then did he step forward to salute: "My sister is reasonable, brother-in-law...... Lessons should also be learned. He said again: "It was a gang of scoundrels and gentlemen who colluded to commit blackmail, and you can see the root of it at a glance, and my brother-in-law is not the only one who has fallen into the trap, just as the second sister said, breaking wealth cannot eliminate disasters, and my brother-in-law was innocent, of course, it is safest to let the yamen judge right and wrong." ”
In order to avoid the embarrassment of Brother-in-law Zhou, Yu Feng didn't say more, first said goodbye and went back, and told the curious princess at home what he had seen and heard that day. ”
"After this time, I want to come to my brother-in-law to serve the words of the second sister as a good word, their husband and wife are harmonious, and the second sister will not have those troubles in the future."
As expected, when Shuntianfu sentenced a blackmailer, Zhou's brother-in-law's reputation was not affected at all, and he was only blamed by his father and brother for a few words, and the elders felt that Erniang was decisive and virtuous, so they were exempted from giving people a handle, and they attached great importance to this daughter-in-law. I don't have the leisure to go to the hook bar to listen to the music and indulge in wine, and I can't avoid those beauties and maids, and completely "change the evil and return to the right".
Just said that in front of him, Yu Feng explained the matter of Brother-in-law Zhou, and while opening the secret report submitted by Ash Du, his eyebrows gradually frowned.
Yijing knew that he was troubled by political affairs, so he didn't ask much, and sat aside to watch his mansion copy.
But I overheard Yu Feng say: "News from Xiliang, at the end of November of the old year, Qinghejun died of illness. ”
It turned out that Tianchawei had penetrated deep into the northern plains and Xiliang, and the death of the heir of the king of Xiliang was naturally not a secret, and the royal family was mourned, and everyone in Xiliang knew about it.
Yijing was not surprised after hearing this, Yu Feng reminded: "You should not have paid attention to it back then, in that life Qinghejun not died early, but was appointed as the crown prince by the king of Xiliang at the beginning of the eighth year of Yuanqing, and in the ninth year of Yuanqing, the king of Xiliang was seriously ill and located in Qinghejun. ”
That is to say, the man who was supposed to be king died of illness at this time......
Yijing was shocked at this time: "The destined thing should not be changed, many changes are because of you and me, but why is Xiliang also involved?" ”
Because their rebirth has changed the fate of some people, compared to Yijing, Yu Feng suggested that the Shengshang first remove the gold party to carry out the reform of the system, and the reversal of the situation will undoubtedly cause more corresponding variables, but no matter how you think about it, the two of them will not lead to the death of the heir of the king of Xiliang, right?
There's a lot of weirdness in it!
Yu Feng bowed slightly: "Although Qinghejun has been sick and weak since childhood, the king of Xiliang has the intention to pass on the throne to him, and he should not suffer from an incurable disease, and Qinghejun's death is not simple." ”
Yi Jing still didn't feel heavy and just lonely, but Yu Feng's heart was covered with a layer of haze, and he always felt that some things seemed to be out of his grasp, but they were closely related to him, and he couldn't be negligent.
The two of them were silent for a while, each thinking about it, but a spring twilight picked up a curtain and entered the study to report: "Sanniang came to Guan Sui Garden, and waited to see the princess in the flower hall." ”
This Sanniang refers to An Jin.
