Chapter 47: The Dust Settles
The Gushan incident soon came to an end, Lin Ruoshi deprived the Chinese of his Ding status, punished him as a concubine, and prepared to decide how many years he would be imprisoned after the trial on a later date. Although he kept shouting grievances in prison, under the watchful eyes of the two colleagues of Zhishi, Qin Zhili and Qin Junshou quickly made a preliminary decision.
As for Bi Hua, who wants to marry his own sons and daughters, this person is incorruptible and shameless, and he actually charms nobles with women, although he retains his Chinese Ding status, he was removed to an official position and cannot stay in the school captain's mansion.
There is also the third son of Qin, who was beaten in the mansion by Qin Junshou and grounded for three months.
In a small house in the east of the city, Wu Gen and Sun Hong sat at the table and had a drink, and their faces were already slightly red.
"Brother, this time it's finally agreeable, Lin Ruoshi is taken care of by Captain Yuwen again, and the county guard is angry, I'm afraid no one will be able to save him." Sun Hong sat lazily on the chair, relaxed both physically and mentally. These days, he and Lin Ruoshi were false and wronged, pretending to deal with each other, and finally stole his waist card.
Suddenly, Sun Hong turned sideways with an obscene expression, "Are Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Ma still slender and exquisite?" ”
Wu Yan looked outside with a little weakness, and explained in a low voice, "Don't say anything about this, God knows you know and I know." The mist was steaming in the hot springs that day, and there were people chasing after me, so I still had the heart to take a closer look. ”
What Wu Gen was worried about was that if Zhu Qianhua knew about it, he would not have the face to meet people again.
"This matter is not over, that Qin Guan is still in Dingyuan City, it will be a big disaster." The light shone on Wu Gan's face, looking a little hideous. Thinking that Qin Guan's little white face was swaying around the school hall whenever he was free, Wu Gan felt a little embarrassed in his heart.
Sun Hong was taken aback, "That's a nobleman, let's not move, brother, if you don't forget it, the anger will come out, Lin Ruoshi will also be defeated, and even Bi Hua, who framed you with him, is also unlucky, and it is too big, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat it." ”
Wu Gen frowned slightly, ignoring Sun Hong's persuasion, thoughtfully, "Yes, I have to think of a way." ”
This time, in order to deal with Lin Ruoshi, Wu Gen stepped on the south of the city early to observe the daily whereabouts of the nobles. A few days ago, as soon as I was free, I took a group of little brothers and sisters to play, and took the opportunity to touch all around Drum Mountain.
Because he knew that with Lin Ruoshi's ability and Captain Yuwen's favoritism, it would definitely be difficult to bring him down by idle means, and only with the help of the power of the nobles and overshadowing Yuwenyan's power could it be effective.
When the documents were lost, Wu Yan was already keenly aware that Lin Ruoshi had made a move. When he humiliated him in terms of espionage, the other party would naturally treat him in the same way as others and do something in the paperwork.
He didn't suspect that it was Cao Jinren who set him up, but after getting along for a long time, he found that although this person was obedient and difficult to get along with, he couldn't do such things. Later, they got acquainted with each other, and took the initiative to hint and point out Bi Hua.
After Zhu Qian's painting of the lake and the startling of horses, suddenly Xiangxiang ran to the school captain's mansion to make such a scene, and Wu Jian knew that Qin Guan must join forces with Lin Ruoshi. From the very beginning, Lin Ruoshi had already laid out a little bit, dug the pit early, and waited for the opportunity to launch.
Seeing that there were more and more opponents involved, Wu Jian had to act in advance and find out that Qin Sangongzi had secretly had a tryst with Bi Hua's daughter. found the knife grinder, disguised himself into Lin Ruoshi, went to the hot spring to plant the stolen goods, and asked him to send Lin Ruoshi and Bi Hua to Bi's house after fainting. For this matter, Wu Yan paid a lot of price and promised to help him do one more thing in the future.
Of course, Aoki's help is indispensable, and although he is only a street leader and wanders underground, don't forget, he has a group of subordinates, and there are thirteen younger siblings, so it is easy to find out something.
With that, Wu Gan's eyes lit up, and he dealt with the third prince of Qin and forced him to stay away from Zhu Qianhua, and he had to fall on Aoki. What way, rumors, is there a more beneficial and cost-effective means than this?
The Qin family, shameless, snatched people's wives and daughters and broke the family. When the view comes, the door is closed, and the face is covered with ash and cannot be exposed.
A few days later, a nursery rhyme was sung in Dingyuan City. When the news reached the ears of Qin Junshou, it was naturally very angry, and the source of the nursery rhyme was strictly investigated, and it was strictly ordered not to be sung.
But the nursery rhyme, when it can be banned since ancient times, the more suppressed, the faster it spreads, and soon everyone knows it, and it has become a joke among the people of Dingyuan City after drinking.
In desperation, Qin Junshou had to send Qin Guan to the capital Fuli to study in Taixue, and strictly ordered him not to return to Dingyuan to avoid the limelight.
Early in the morning, Wu Gan hurriedly walked in the north of the city and came to Aoki's courtyard.
There was silence in the courtyard, and at this time, it was the time when Aoki went out to do things with the "Thirteen Taibao". Wu Yan walked to the front of the house and knocked lightly on the door. A woman's voice came from inside the door, "How did you come back so soon, how did you get today?" ”
The sound of footsteps came, the door creaked open, and when the woman saw Wu Qian, her face changed, and she was about to close the door.
Wu Yan propped his hand on the door and said with a smile: "Xiangxiang, meet again." ”
"How do you stay, my family is coming back, even if you are Chinese, you have to go around without food." The woman slandered Wu Gen for taking away his innocence, and when she saw Wu Gan, her face showed a vigilant look.
"Eh, where are you talking, isn't this an outsider. You didn't say in public that you had already obeyed me, but you also wanted a name. Come, today I specially came to pick up the kiss, although it is a little cold, but it is finally from your wish. Wu Gen looked like a scoundrel, pushed open the door and was about to enter the house.
"Get out." Xiangxiang's face was frosty, and she took a sip, "How did you know that I live here?" These days, Wu Gen and Aoki have been in contact with each other through a single line, and asked him not to mention his identity to others, and it seems that Aoki has kept his promise.
Wu Yan was not annoyed, "Aoki and I are good friends, I guess you don't know much, I have seen a pipa hanging on the wall here, which is somewhat similar to what you called."
Today I went to the Lanxiang class, and they said that your injuries are not yet healed, and you can't see guests, so you went home early today to recuperate, so I came to meet you directly. ”
Xiangxiang looked puzzled, "Do you know Aoki?" ”
"Yes, there are thirteen Taibao." Wu Yan spread his hands.
Xiangxiang's face turned red, and her shallow eyebrows lowered, "I'm sorry." ”
"How much did Lin Ruoshi give you?" Wu Gen went straight in.
"Fifty taels of silver." Xiangxiang snorted.
Wu Yan jumped up angrily, "Auntie, just for fifty taels of silver, you slandered my innocence, and almost killed yourself." ”
Xiangxiang sighed faintly, "People like you, naturally I don't know how difficult it is for me and other cheap people to earn these fifty taels, and it is not easy for Brother Aoki to raise younger brothers and sisters, if I don't help out, how can I do it." ”
Wu Yan took out five taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Xiangxiang, "Well, here you go, the pen fee." ”
"What retouching fee?"
"Nonsense, you dirty my innocence, you have to explain it to people, these days, I have been scolded for many days." Wu Qian's face was sad, Zhu Qianhua hadn't given himself a good face for a long time.
Xiangxiang rolled her eyes, pointed at Wu Gan and said with a teasing smile: "It turns out that there is a girl you like, right." ”
"Don't worry about it, hurry up and write down the inside story."
snatched the silver, Xiangxiang turned back to the house, "That Lin Ruoshi or something, I heard that he was already unlucky, so naturally I won't be afraid of him anymore, then I will write it down for you, and it will be regarded as compensation for you." As he spoke, he sat down at the table and wrote down a piece of paper about how Lin Ruoshi lured money and how he supported it.
After blowing the ink, Xiangxiang was satisfied, and got five taels of silver for nothing, and also gave Wu Gen a little bit of innocence, so he was naturally happy.
When Lin Ruoshi found himself, after all, Wu Gen had done him a favor, and he didn't want to do this kind of pickled thing, but he couldn't help the other party's coercion and temptation, and the promise only made Wu Gan's reputation unpleasant, and it would not have much impact on him, so he agreed.
These days, I have been very sorry, one is sorry for Wu Gan, and the other is if Aoki knows, where will he have the face to say goodbye, so he has not dared to return home until today.
Wu Yan looked at the words on the paper, "This word is Juanxiu, it's okay." ”
Xiangxiang was proud, "That is, in the Lanxiang class, you have to learn some piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”
"Tsk, I'm on my side, yours is here. Think about my acquaintance with Aoki, but you openly said that you had an affair with me, and you thought Aoki wouldn't know. Hehe, it's not easy to get five taels of silver, so you better think about how to explain it to Aoki. As he spoke, Wu Gan laughed, turned around and went out.
Xiangxiang smiled and sat at the table with a sad face, what is the matter.
Wu Ganxing rushed to the Chengnan School, and Zhu Qian came back from a walk, and hurriedly handed over the life-saving paper. Zhu Qianhua glanced at it, saw Lin Ruoshi's name, and thought of the turmoil in the county guard mansion in recent days, how smart she was, although she didn't know the grievances between Wu Yan and Lin Ruoshi, but she probably guessed the outline of the matter.
"Recently, the hot spring ......," Zhu Qianhua said to himself as he walked.
"I didn't do that." Wu Gen hurriedly answered, cut the nail on the head, and swore an oath.
Zhu Qianhua glanced at Wu Qian, and then said, "The hot spring water is a little cold. As he spoke, he glanced at Wu Gan, "Deng's disciple." Leave the next sentence and leave quickly.
Wu Yan knew that he had missed his mouth, and followed with a sad face, "I really didn't do this myself, it's wronged." "Again and again, complaining bitterly.
"Okay, I know your temperament, you still can't do this dirty woman's innocence. Don't play so much scheming in the future, or use more effort in your studies. Zhu Qianhua put on the style of a senior sister.
"Yes, yes, what Senior Sister said."
"These days, your studies have been wasted a lot, and you will be fined for copying 5,000 words."
"Five thousand?"
"What, less?"
"A lot, a lot, a lot, senior sister, you are well punished."
Wu Qian sat in the school hall with a sad face, and there was already a stack of written paper on the table. Zhu Qianhua held a ring ruler in his hand, and turned around beside Wu Gen from time to time, supervising a house full of students for his father.
Seeing Wu Gan's reluctant appearance, he gently stroked his sideburns and hair, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Lin Ruoshi escaped from prison, Wu Yan was sitting in the gatehouse of the school captain's mansion, and suddenly heard the news early in the morning, and couldn't help but be a little stunned. It took so much effort to put him in prison, and like this, he was still allowed to escape.
Wu Gen scolded the prison guards thousands of times in his heart, a bunch of rice buckets. This is good, Lin Ruoshi turned from light to dark, and he became the target of Minghuang. With his character, the damage this time was so heavy, he must have hated Wu Yan into his bone marrow, but he became an undying enemy.
After hearing the news, Wu Gen simply shrank in the gatehouse every day, not going out of the door, and not stepping out of the second door, just like a little daughter-in-law.
secretly instructed Sun Hong not to deal with himself openly. In case Lin Ruoshi knew that Sun Hong had stolen his waist card, this mad dog would go crazy, and I am afraid that Sun Hong would have to expose his body on the street one day.
But after some time, Lin Ruoshi's news never came again, and he may have fled from Bao'an County. With his status as a commoner, I am afraid that it will be difficult to make a big splash, Wu Gen gradually put his heart down.
Every day, I thought of ways to make Zhu Qianhua happy, and specially invited Aoki and Xiangxiang to have a meal, explained the reason, and solved the knot in Aoki's heart.
The two of them had grown up together since childhood, and their feelings were deep, and when they heard about Xiangxiang's suffering, Aoki was naturally full of apologies, but he didn't allow Xiangxiang to go to the Lanxiang class again, and Wu Yan borrowed the cost of this redemption from Sun Hong.
On this day, Wu Gen was enjoying tea in the gatehouse, and a word came from the house, asking him to return to the camp where Jin Song was located to deliver a letter. Originally, Wu Gen was a little surprised, but the person who came explained that he was familiar with the situation in the camp, so Wu Gen made it difficult for Wu Gen.
Thinking that he could meet a group of acquaintances, Wu Gen said nothing, packed his horses and went out of the city.
