"It turns out that the meaning given to me by God is not to serve the country with loyalty. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The year 3270 of the Zhenwu calendar
The battle between the border pass between the ancient country and Guzirong has finally come to an end, and although the country won with difficulty, the national strength has been sharply reduced, and the people in the border area have been displaced and corpses are everywhere!
At the door of the restaurant 'Siwei Xuan' in Jiangcheng County, the two of them were shivering from the cold wind at this time.
"Brother Mao, if we don't see this master in charge today, then let's tell their superior yamen, your knife wound has not healed, and it has been frozen for a long time, I am afraid that your body will not be able to bear it." ”
It was Dong Biwu who spoke, and at this time, he was holding a clay pot to his chest, as if he was afraid that the jar would run away from his hand.
Glancing at the clay pot in his hand, Mao Chongde stubbornly shook his head: "No, I have to stop this dog official today and seek justice for my brother." ”
Gently stroking the jar in his hand, a trace of envy appeared on Dong Biwu's face, and he muttered to the clay pot: "Brother, you can meet such a big brother who values love and righteousness, you are so lucky." ”
The clay pot in Dong Biwu's hand contains nothing else, it is the remains of his eldest brother Dong Bizhong who died on the front line!
Mao Chongde and he were originally fellow villagers, and served in a barracks, the relationship between the two was the best, but the battlefield was treacherous, and in just one night, the two brothers of the opposite sex were separated by yin and yang, so after the war was over, although he was still seriously injured, Mao Chongde still took the initiative to ask for his life and escorted Dong Bizhong's remains back.
Revert to one 's origin!
Looking at the large piece of flying snow overhead, Dong Biwu squinted: "I don't know if this official will come here today, alas, this thief God, I don't say that God is pitiful, if it doesn't snow, Brother Mao's injury won't hurt so much." ”
The scar on Mao Chongde's face was left in the last battle, the opponent's knife was so powerful that it almost cut off half of his head, and it was also his life, he didn't die, in the blink of an eye, three or two months have passed, although the injury has improved, when the cold is heavy, the wound will be extremely painful, making him suffer a lot!
"I've heard people say that this dog official will come to this Siwei Xuan every night to eat and drink, and today, presumably it will be no exception, let's wait. ”
The two of them squatted in place for more than an hour, until the lights came on, and finally, a warm sedan chair came into the eyes of the two of them surrounded by several soldiers.
The sedan chair has not stopped at the door of the 'Siwei Xuan', and the restaurant maid greeted it from a distance, and at the same time that the sedan curtain was lifted, a middle-aged man stepped out of the car.
"I'll just say that this snowy weather is auspicious, there will be a distinguished guest tonight, Lord Ding, you see that the little one has just finished thinking about you, you will come, this auspicious Rui, it is really auspicious!"
The little guy's sycophant made the official surnamed Ding feel comfortable for a while, he coughed lightly twice and signaled a soldier to give the little guy some reward, and said in his mouth: "You kid, your mouth is full of oil and smoothness, but this official likes it, a long-sleeved and good dancing character like you, it's a pity to stay here as a handyman." ”
"Yo! That's all up to Lord Ding's cultivation, by the way, your guests have already come, please come inside, it's weird and cold outside. ”
A group of people were about to enter the Siwei Xuan as they spoke, and just as they were about to enter the door, Mao Chongde had already led Dong Biwu out of the darkness: "Lord Ding stays, Lord Ding!"
The official surnamed Ding heard someone call him, glanced back, and then frowned slightly: "How can I meet you anywhere?"
Mao Chongde pressed Dong Biwu's neck and knelt on the ground: "My lord, the villain is also because you refused to see you in the yamen, and there is really no way, so you came here to stop you, you must be the master of my dead brother!"
Originally, Dong Bizhong sacrificed his life for the country, and the country needed to give the pension, but this pension was distributed layer by layer, and when it arrived in Jiangcheng, there was very little money in the hands of the Dong family.
The official surnamed Ding looked grim: "Why can't you understand people's words? We have heard about the country's current pension standards, and you don't know it! The state has issued a part, and the local government has subsidized a part, and the money from the imperial court has indeed arrived, and we have also issued a lot of money to you, but every year in the war, our local finances are stretched, what subsidies will we give you? Let you file in our Tianfu Division, and if you have spare money and silver, we will naturally make up for you as soon as possible, go home and wait for the letter, you want to rebel against me all day long! Let you gang of people make trouble around every now and then, and the official's head will be blown up. ”
"Lord Ding, in the past few years, you Tianfu Division has not beaten the white stripes of the fallen soldiers, and I haven't seen you give a cent after all these years, this money is all exchanged for the lives of the soldiers on the front line, you can be merciful. ”
Mao Chongde said movingly, thinking of his deceased brother, he was even more sad in his heart, but the surname Ding obviously didn't eat this, and stomped his foot fiercely, and the official surnamed Ding said: "Compassion is a bodhisattva's business, what does it have to do with me? ”
After the surnamed Ding finished speaking, he was about to walk towards Siwei Xuan, and Dong Biwu hurriedly hugged his ankle when he saw this: "My lord, you can do well, this money is my eldest brother's life in exchange." ”
He originally just wanted to beg the official to stay, but who knows, this surnamed Ding is wide and fat, and the lower plate is unstable, so he didn't stand firm when he hugged him, and he almost fell, this time, the surname Ding was furious: "Presumptuous, you can't get the money, you want to change the robbery, right? Come on, give me a fight!"
Listening to the order of the surnamed Ding, several soldiers came up and couldn't help but say that they were beating Mao Chongde and Dong Biwu violently, Mao Chongde only had a first-order Lingyuan cultivation, and he was riddled with injuries, how could he be the opponent of these soldiers! In an instant, the two fell in a pool of blood......
