Chapter 119: Humiliation
Su Tongju listened to Lu Weimang's words, and his face was red and green.
He rarely has a talent name that he grew up in the family, and there are famous talented women in Yangzhou City, and later participated in the imperial examination, but also won in one fell swoop, and was accepted as a student by the important ministers of the court, and was released to the general judgment, which is the sixth product, the starting point is not high, the key is that the general judgment is the Son of Heaven, so in this Yangzhou City, although he is the second person in the official face, he is respected as a guest by the county guard.
Since he was born, his life has been smooth sailing, so he will secretly compete with Huo Hou, who is also a young man and praised by the whole country, and privately feels that it is just so, at this time, he was asked by Lu Weimang, and his face was a little unbearable, and he felt that this Lu Weimang should be deliberate, although this person is kind on the face, but he is committed to stepping on other people's death holes, it seems that the county guard is right, these people from noble and high-ranking families are not good things, and they are very proud.
But I forgot that although my background is not as good as Huo Hou and Lu Weimang, I am also a prominent family in this Yangzhou city.
And Huo Hou was born noble, that is because his father dedicated himself to Daqian, Lu Weimang was born noble, and that was also his father Lu Qingshan fought with his life. How many people participated in the war at the beginning, and the soldiers were killed and wounded countless times, and how many people were born in the whole Daqian? is similar to this Su Tong Judgment, born in Yangzhou, who has not experienced much war, and has grown up rich and smooth since childhood, there are not a few.
This Su Tongju didn't know how to reflect on himself, he only felt that Lu Weimang, who was kind and talkative, was extremely hateful, so he gritted his teeth and responded, "Brother Ling has Lord Lu's sister to worry about, and naturally the future is bright." But let Lord Lu know that there is a big difference between a Beijing official and a local official. In Kyoto, it's good to just check the information and drink tea, but in the place, you have to know the meaning of the boss's words, and you have to control the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods under your control, and there are countless squires and rich people in the middle, and you have to have a good relationship, but you can't learn by staying in the school and reading a few books. Listening to Lord Lu's tone, he must be quite talented in books, but he has to practice and practice more to be a person and practice more before he can be released to do things. ”
Lu Weimang listened carefully, nodding as he listened, "There are so many famous halls, Master Su has been in this Suzhou City in just a few years, and it turns out that so much effort has been put in behind it, it really makes me feel ashamed to wait for the Beijing officials!" ”
"But?" Lu Weimang raised his head, and looked condescendingly at the smug Su Tongju, who was smuggling in the attic, through the air, "If I remember correctly, Lord Su is the general judge appointed by His Majesty, all the people appointed by His Majesty, Your Majesty should have told you that the duty of the general judgment is to supervise the local governor, and the lower is in charge of the soldiers, horses, money and grain, field grain transportation, and water conservancy lawsuits." Every time the general judge is sent to Beijing, His Majesty has high hopes for you, hoping that you will supervise the upper and lower levels for the imperial court and stabilize the place. But just now, Master Su talked eloquently, and he didn't say anything about how to make this general judgment. I would like to ask Su Tongju, in Yangzhou City, are there any officials who have violated the law and embezzled bribes and acted unsubordinately? Are there any squires and rich men who have embezzled the land and ruined the people's families, and you are still in charge of the lawsuits, and have the people cried in front of the adults, begging you to call the shots for them? ”
Su Tongju's face turned red, and his eyes were weak and hideous, "You don't understand." Where is it so simple to be an official. You are destined to stay in the capital, how do you know the difficulties of our magistrates? ”
Lu Weimang nodded, "Well, let's not talk about these official eunuchs and the oppression of local snakes, just talk about grain transportation and water conservancy." In recent years, what is the grain transportation in Yangzhou every year? How many more water conservancy sites have been dredged? I heard that a few years ago, a drought in the south of the Yangtze River killed a number of people, so what remedies did you do? ”
Lu Weimang asked sincerely, his face was sincere, and his black and white eyes looked condescendingly at the judgment, so that he didn't dare to look directly, he finally determined that this Lu Weimang was not just a bad person who said from the county guard, she came to want to overthrow everything in this Jiangnan and start again, "Okay!" Good! Good! Lord Lu is really a celebrity in the court that His Majesty loves to promote, and he never leaves the people of the court, and his words are righteous and high-sounding. Our local petty officials don't have the pattern of Lord Lu, and they can't stand Lord Lu's interrogation. If you have any tricks, even if you use them, it's a big deal to let the court punish me for dereliction of duty. When the time comes, you will have empty teeth and white teeth, and I will see how you cure my sins. But it's not a disaster for my family, I just want to come and take my wife away today, can you let my wife out now? Even more reluctant, our husband and wife are going home, so we won't gossip with Lord Lu. ”
Su Tongju's first calm expression since entering the Dream Garden seemed to have seen through the situation in front of him and was not moved by external words.
But Lu Weimang was not happy yet, she looked at the general judgment, "Husband and wife? Is Mrs. Su the wife of the general judge? Why didn't I see it? ”
"What do you mean?" The judge was in a hurry again.
"As far as I can see today, Mrs. Su is not having an easy time. If you had treated her as your wife, you would not have let her suffer the sufferings of those pickles. Lu Weimang shook his head and said.
"What did she tell you? It's just a skinny horse plaything, who doesn't have a concubine for a man in this world? It's not enough for her to mess with me in the house, and she puts on a dead face every day, so that everyone knows that I spoil my concubine and kill my wife, such a jealous and unvirtuous wife, I should have divorced her a long time ago! When Su Tongju spoke, the bruises on his face burst out.
It's strange that Lu Weimang sneered at him today, as if no arrogant person like him was so angry, but Lu Weimang was so angry as soon as he mentioned Mrs. Su.
Lu Weimang quietly looked at Su Tongju, who was bursting with green muscles, and Su Tongju quickly realized that he was out of shape, and said after adjustment, "Lord Lu, it's getting late, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you." There is still an old mother at home, waiting for the return of his wife in the next, please return the wife in the next. ”
Lu Weimang shook his head and said softly, "It's late." ”
Su Tongju's face changed greatly, "This is the first time she has come to this flower banquet today, unlike Mrs. Feng and others, can't you let her go?" ”
Sure enough, this Su Tong judge is not unaware of the seriousness of tonight's matter, the reason why he was easily provoked by the county guard and others to find the Dream Garden and confront Lu Weimang face to face is because he is not like the county guard, who can completely ignore his wife, regardless of their life or death.
Lu Weimang said softly, "Just now, before Mrs. Su was taken away, she knelt in front of me, but she didn't do it for herself, she begged me to let you go." She said that her husband studied hard for ten years before he got out of the middle. It's just that I was afraid that Shangfeng would blame him, so I had to take a thin horse home, and asked me not to punish him and let him go. ”
Natong's eyes were red, and he lowered his head, as if tears were dripping from his eyes, "I used to be as simple as Lord Lu, and when Your Majesty received me, I was also full of enthusiasm." But what about reality? I can't even handle my own mother's clan. I can't even protect my lover. If I don't go along with them, Qingshu will be grinded to death, and I will also be trapped in this Yangzhou City, not even a single person of my own, all of them will be controlled. ”
The judge wiped his eyes and looked up, "I admit it, it's my incompetence. I can only study, I can't do anything, not even my wife. But public opinion is like a knife, if Qingshu can't go back with me tonight, with her weak nature, she won't be able to live. Lord Lu, you can punish me however you want, and I will let you and Huo Hou fall. Even, I know that Huo Hou has something big to do when he comes to Yangzhou, so I can turn to Huo Hou and just ask you to open up. ”
Su Tongju's eyes were firmly fixed on Lu Weimang at this time, with a firm expression.
The human heart is unpredictable. Some people can tell lies with a resolute face to achieve their goals.
The so-called painting skin and tiger is difficult to draw bones, and being swayed by words is the most stupid thing.
This Su Tong's sentence, Lu Weimang doesn't care whether he believes it or not. Words can be turned at will, but actions cannot. Some people have bodhisattvas in their hearts but do evil things, and some people have evil hearts but pretend to do good deeds.
But at the moment, there is a reversal of the general judgment that Yangzhou City is only under the county guard, which will definitely be beneficial and harmless to Huo Jing's next plan. As for how to deal with this Su Tong judgment after the plan is completed, we will see when the time comes.
At that moment, Lu Weimang made a look of being touched by his true feelings, and sighed lightly,
"I thought you had lost your pride and self-esteem, your glory and your faith. Just now, I thought that in front of me, you were not the pride of heaven who was a teenager who won fame, but just a lump of mud that everyone avoided, indulged in lust, and was willing to sink into the flow of the river. Unexpectedly, you also have your own unavoidable hardships. Ding Yi, someone took him to see Hou Ye, and told Hou Ye what happened, and let Hou Ye let everything go. ”
Surprise flashed in Su Tongju's eyes, and then he bowed his head goodbye and followed a black-armored guard into the darkness.
"Miss, do you really believe what he says?"
Xiaoqiu couldn't help but ask, and Ding Yi couldn't hold back, "This kind of reader is the best at clever words." Miss Lu is not deeply involved in the world, but don't look at how much he looks like and be confused by him! ”
Lu Weimang smiled and looked back at Ding Yi, "Am I so easily confused?" He said that he had a hard time, but it turned out that his wife was suffering, and he hugged him left and right. When the situation was wrong, he immediately jumped out, blaming others for all the faults, and even faintly blaming his mother. This kind of person, if he doesn't take advantage of it, he is sorry for his good intentions. ”
"You take advantage of him? You have always been straightforward and disdainful of using these means, didn't you just let him go to see the young master? I thought..."
Lu Weimang chuckled, "Think I'm being confused by him?" Lu Weimang shook his head, "People are unpredictable, I expect people to be able to open their hearts, so they are often straightforward, and people who don't like the eye disdain." However, there are always some people in this world who think they can play with people's hearts. This time, I'm going to let him taste what it's like to be toyed with. Did you see that Mrs. Su just now? A second before she was taken away, she was still lying at my feet, pleading for her, the so-called beloved. If there was no Su Tong judgment, what a lovely and transparent woman would that Miss Qingshu be? ”
Seeing Lu Weimang's depressed expression, Xiaoqiu's expressionless face was a little worried, and he poked Ding Yi next to him and asked him to think of a way.
Ding Yi scratched his head and held back a sentence, "The young master of my family is the most sincere person in the world, and like Miss Lu, he doesn't disdain this kind of person who plays with people's hearts." It seems that you guys are a match made in heaven, haha..."
The atmosphere was dry, and Ding Yi couldn't laugh anymore.
Lu Weimang couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alright, let's go back. If you wait any longer, it's just some people with filthy souls coming over and talking righteously and acting coyly. I'm too lazy to look any further. ”
Xiaoqiu and Ding Yi breathed a sigh of relief, "It's just that they don't have to pollute their mood." This bright world is still brighter and more cheerful, and those rats are a very few, and it is not worth affecting their mood. ”
Lu Weimang was free, "That's right, it's just some timid rats who don't dare to fight openly and can't control their desires, and they are affected by their mood, which really lifts them up." I didn't eat well tonight, how about Miss invite you to have supper? ”
Approve with both hands!
