Chapter 202: Funeral procession to block the city gate, Zhou Xin in white!
Outside Hengyang City, the white spirit banner spreads in the wind.
Paper money, crying, all white.
The funeral of the deceased is an extremely ordinary thing.
However, this funeral procession did not go out of the city, but came from outside the city and into the city.
There is no cemetery in the city, and there is no cemetery.
Carrying the coffin, so swaggering towards the city, how could the guards guarding the city let the other party into the city?
And this funeral procession, driven by the defenders of the city, did not leave, but stopped directly outside the city gate.
The mortuary outside the city, such a big bustle, naturally attracted countless onlookers.
And the city gate was blocked for a while because of these onlookers.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way and see the excitement in front! King Zhou has come to administer justice! ”
"King Zhou! It's really King Zhou! ”
"Lord Zhou!"
"Lord Zhou!"
Zhu Hu, who was dressed in formal clothes, was riding a tall horse at this time, and slowly drove towards this side with a personal guard.
And with the appearance of Zhu Hu, the people who were originally onlookers spontaneously moved out of the way.
Looking at the guards with a long lance in their hands flashing with cold light, their steps were almost uniform, and their eyes were full of murderous energy.
There was not the slightest hint of horror in the eyes of the surrounding people, but there was a trace of fanaticism.
These guards, when they followed King Zhou to Hengyang City, they were indeed walking on the streets, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight, so that the people could avoid them.
After all, these people have just arrived in Hengyang City, and they are rumored to burn, kill and rob, and do all kinds of evil, comparable to the existence of bandits.
However, as some of the rich and unkind people in Hengyang City were gradually purged, and the situation that no ordinary people were persecuted gradually spread.
In the eyes of the people, these guards around King Zhou seemed to be incarnated as their patron saints.
The people no longer felt that these murderous guards were fierce.
On the contrary, it is more because they feel that they are kind and give people a sense of security.
"Let's all spread out first, okay? The city gate is congested, which is not conducive to travel. Everyone gave me Zhu Hu a face, and let go of a road for the time being. Let pedestrians pass, it is convenient for others, and it is also convenient for yourself. ”
"Now, please back down in an orderly manner."
After Zhu Hu rode to the city gate, he looked at the city gate that was almost impassable by onlookers, and Zhu Hu frowned slightly.
When he looked at the funeral procession that stopped not far from the city gate, his face became even more ugly.
Because, on the coffin and the spirit banner of the leader, there are big words of injustice written on them.
"You first divide a few people to maintain order, and remember, don't drive away, lest you cause a stampede."
"Yes."
After Zhu Hu opened his mouth to appease the surrounding crowd first, his personal guards and the city gate defenders began to command the traffic in an orderly manner.
The surrounding people were also extra face-saving at this time, and the traffic quickly returned to normal again according to the orders of the defenders who commanded the order.
And Zhu Hu also came to the funeral team with his personal guards at this time.
At the head was a young man with an extremely white complexion.
It looks like he's only sixteen or seventeen years old.
However, the other party's eyes were extremely firm at this time.
After seeing the legendary Zhou King Zhu Hu coming to him, the young man was dressed in filial piety clothes and held the spiritual throne in his hand.
Without the slightest hesitation, he knelt heavily in front of Zhu Hu.
"White-clothed Zhou Xin, meet His Royal Highness King Zhou!"
"White? You're still a reader."
When Zhu Hu heard the other party claiming to be white, his brows furrowed deeply.
This white coat is a name only given to scholars who have already entered the examination and are qualified to participate in the imperial examination.
It's just that looking at the other party's move of leading the funeral into the city, Zhu Hu's face couldn't help but become more and more ugly.
"Since you are a scholar, you should know that leading the funeral into the city is disturbing the order. Although this crime is not serious, it can also be punished with three years of forced labor! ”
"As a scholar, how can you still do such a foolish thing?"
"Also, on the day of the funeral, the deceased is greater. How can you write a word of injustice on a coffin and a spirit flag? Do you know that this is a great unfilial act? ”
Zhu Huan's words were not loud, but they were filled with a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
After listening to it, it is difficult to have the courage to look at him directly.
And such a momentum made Chu Ze and Zhu Di, who were hidden in the crowd, nod.
Not to mention anything else, Zhu Hu at least has a good grasp of this momentum.
"I really didn't see it before, but the fifth child can still be so imposing. It's very good, it looks like it's about to have the momentum of the big brother. ”
"But... Didn't you say that the fifth child will contribute a lot to the whole society in the future? Now that he is the lord of this city, will his contributions be gone in the future? ”
In the crowd, Zhu Di looked at Zhu Hu, who was sitting on a horse with an extremely serious expression, which made people dare not look directly.
He couldn't help but push Chu Ze on the side with his hand.
And Chu Ze, who heard Zhu Di ask this, smiled indifferently.
"His subsequent contributions were mainly in rewriting most of the medical books, integrating and revising prescriptions, etc."
"But in my opinion, it is easy to train a doctor who heals the sick and saves people, but it is difficult to train a person who discovers and treats the diseases of the world."
"Just like today's King Zhou, if he is a healer, he can treat one person, ten people, but if he is a person who dares to change government decrees, dare to create a new policy, and implement a new policy, then his new policy may be able to save thousands of people at one time."
"Those who do not seek the world are not enough to seek the safety of a place!"
"Okay. Maybe you're right. But. Let's take a look at the excitement first. ”
While Chu Ze and Zhu Di were talking, the Zhu Huren in front had already jumped off the horse.
and took people to look at the funeral procession.
Both young and old, with a yellow complexion, tattered clothes, and the smell of wind and sand on their faces do not seem to be a temporary thing.
With rough skin and somewhat cloudy eyes, it can be seen that these are people who have been farming all year round and have been exposed to the wind and sun.
"Remove all the injustices on the coffin and the spirit banner to this king! If there is a grievance, this king will naturally not cover it up, and the person who complains is not guilty, but it is unfilial and disrespectful to treat the dead like this! This is not to be done! ”
"Zhou Xin, right? You stay and tell the king what happened. The others continue to go out of the funeral, the deceased is the greatest, and the burial is peace! ”
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Zhou! Folks, take off the flags and go out for the funeral! ”
After Zhou Xin heard Zhu Hu's words, he kowtowed to Zhu Hu with great gratitude, and then got up to greet the funeral team back.
And he himself stayed where he was.
"This spiritual position in your hand?"
Zhu Hu looked at Zhou Xin, who was still holding the spiritual position, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
It is clearly written on this spiritual throne that the deceased: the position of Zhao Sanjiu.
And now the one holding the spiritual position is a young man surnamed Zhou
This seems to be a bit of a difficult matter.
"Back to His Royal Highness King Zhou, the deceased was not Zhou Xin's close relative, this person's name was Zhao Sanjiu, Zhou Xin's parents died in the war at an early age. grew up eating hundreds of meals, and Uncle Zhao has given Zhou Xin many times to save his life! ”
"Now Uncle Zhao died unjustly, so Zhou Xin should be sued in white!"
"No matter what the final result is, Zhou Xin should be responsible for it! The folks who came here today were all encouraged by Zhou Xinzhi, and I hope His Royal Highness will not be held responsible! Life and death are all handled by Zhou Xin alone! ”
Zhu Hu looked at Zhou Xin, who was about to kneel down again.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile slightly.
"You have an appetite for me! Dare to do and speak, encourage the villagers, and bring out the funeral procession to congest the city gate. That's right, you kid is here to cry out for injustice, if it's not good, you're looking for death. ”
"Do you kid know what I did in Hengyang City?"
"Know a little bit about it!"
"How do you evaluate it?"
"Eliminate harm for the people, kill decisively, do practical things, and at the same time offend people, if you are not the prince, I am afraid that life and death are gone!"
When Zhu Hu heard Zhou Xin's comment, the corners of his mouth curled slightly.
This Zhou Xin, although he looks young, he likes this energy.
"Tell me, who are you going to sue?"
"Back to His Royal Highness King Zhou, what Zhou Xin wants to sue is not one person, but a group, a sect!"
"Zhou Xin wants to sue some people in the name of monks, absorbing the people's incense money during the day, shouting compassion in his mouth, and shouting for purifying sentient beings. Behind the scenes, they are wantonly accumulating wealth and releasing high-interest Yinzi money to the people! ”
"My Uncle Zhao has no children and no daughters under his knees, and he still followed His Majesty to resist the veterans of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!"
Later, after being injured and retiring, the villagers in the township were well-known good people. Although he has no children, he has provided for dozens of orphans in the war. ”
"I, Zhou Xin, am one of them."
"In order to treat a few of our brothers and sisters, Uncle Zhao had no choice but to borrow ten taels of silver from the Wushan Temple in Hengyang City."
"And my Uncle Zhao is honest, even if Yueyue eats less and wears less, he will repay the temple regularly!"
"But now that he has repaid it for four years, Uncle Zhao learned a few days ago that he has repaid a total of thirteen taels of silver to the temple in the past four years, and now he still owes the temple one hundred and seventy taels!"
"When I learned about this, Uncle Zhao quarreled with the other party in the temple, but the other party beat and humiliated Uncle Zhao because of the large number of people."
After Uncle Zhao was beaten unconscious by them, he was thrown out of the temple directly. When the person was found, he was already on the way home and had an attack of injuries, and the person had already gone! ”
"His Royal Highness King Zhou, Zhou Xin knows that it is natural to repay debts! But if such a thing is taken advantage of the fire and has no bottom line, after being branded, it can be taken by ingenuity without any scruples."
"Where is the law of the king of heaven and reason?"
