Chapter 19 Bamboo Slips
The bitter Jiang clan left satisfied, and Qi also put away the letter. When he arrived at the city lord's mansion, he thought for a long time before he called a servant and said to the servant: "You take this letter, and you will leave tomorrow, you will deliberately fall and let this letter be seen by Ku Shangqing, if you cry Shangqing and ask whose letter it is, you will say that it is your wife to his brother, if Ku Shangqing does not ask, you will immediately come back to me." If Ku Shangqing arrests you, remember, don't say my name, so that I can rescue you, you know. ”
The man said respectfully, "The little one understands, the little one understands." Even if you don't save the little one, the little one won't give you up. If it weren't for the adult, the little wife would have been ruined by that person, and the little one would have always remembered your deep kindness to my family. ”
Qi sighed and patted him on the shoulder, and said to him, "If I can't save you, I will take care of your family." ”
The man said respectfully, "My lord, it is my blessing that you chose me to help you with your errands. Half of the people of this city have received your favor, and everyone hopes to repay you one day, and now the little ones will definitely take care of it. ”
When Kai heard him finish speaking, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the servant.
The servant hurriedly helped Qi up, and hurriedly said, "Sir, aren't you tormenting the little one? ”
"This is what you deserve, you go, I will pray to heaven and you will be fine."
The servant nodded, and left with tears in his eyes.
After he left, Kai walked around the room uncertainly, his heart full of fear for the future.
He swallowed his anger for the past two years, just to wait for this opportunity to come.
If you fail, you will have nothing, and the suffering you have endured in the past two years will be in vain.
The sense of powerlessness about the future makes him like a ship sailing in the reef, and he doesn't know when he will be able to sail out.
He could only cultivate when he was uncertain, and soon he was angry and sank into the dantian, allowing his true qi like a little earthworm to travel according to the upper meridians, and he was finally no longer in a state of mind when he controlled his true qi.
After two hours of cultivation, Kai opened his eyes, his eyes calmed down again, and his heart was not so panicked, he said with a smile: "It seems that it won't be long before I can enter the supreme position." ”
When I think of this, I am much happier in my heart.
He began to rest up, while the rooster crowed. Kai got up and sat cross-legged there, waiting for news.
As uneasy as he was the servant, he took the letter, demonstrated once again how he had fallen, and then went to the front of the Kufu and waited quietly for Uncle Ku to appear.
He stood around the corner, swallowing his saliva. The tongue licked his lips from time to time, looked at the sky from time to time, and then looked at the gate of the Kufu.
While he was anxiously waiting, the gate of Kufu opened, and the carriage reached the gate, and at this time he shrugged his shoulders and lowered his head, and looked like a thief.
Uncle Ku, who was about to board the carriage, saw him like this, and immediately drank: "Who are you?" Stand for Lord Ben. ”
When the servant heard this sound, he subconsciously fell to the ground, and then the bamboo slip in his hand was thrown over.
"Pick it up and see what?"
Uncle Ku asked the servant to pick up the bamboo slips, Uncle Ku looked at the mud seal, his heart moved, and asked, "This letter is for you to send." ”
"Lord Qiyu, my wife asked me to give it to his brother."
Hearing this, Uncle Ku's face changed, he opened the mud seal, and looked at what was written inside, his face changed instantly.
"Put this man in the house, and remember not to let anyone know. If someone asks, they say they were caught stealing. Uncle Ku took the bamboo slip into his arms, and then calmly entered the carriage and went to the city lord's mansion to report.
Although Jiang Yuan was not there, the scholars still had to go to the city lord's mansion and hand over the official documents.
Qi waited in the City Lord's Mansion until dawn, and the servant did not come back, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He put on his iron armor and went to the lobby, where he and a few of the iron guards stood next to the empty desk, and then watched as the servants handed the official bamboo slips and placed them on the table.
Qi looked at Uncle Ku's silent face, and couldn't help but curse the old fox in his heart. Uncle Ku also looked up at Qi at this time, his eyes were meaningful, which made Qi's heart move.
He bowed slightly to Uncle Ku, and then waited until all the Shiqing handed over the official documents and left here.
After Uncle Ku left here, he immediately returned to the mansion, he returned to the study, and instructed the servant to call the Ku Jiang family over.
Soon the bitter Jiang clan came here dissatisfied, and did not salute Uncle Ku, and sat directly on the couch.
"Your brother is cruel and unreasonable, and the people are miserable, I will unite with Baiqing and prepare to abolish his position as the city lord." Uncle Ku said calmly to the Ku Jiang clan.
Ku Jiang's face turned pale in an instant, and he pointed at Uncle Ku and said, "Are you crazy?" Don't forget, how could you be a secretary without my brother? You wolf-hearted thing, are you right about my brother? In vain, you are a scholar, it is better to have a conscience than this subordinate. ”
"Yes, Jiang Yuan promoted me to be Shangqing, so I silently raised my son for him. Originally, I was grateful to him, but you shouldn't have burned my daughter to death for that evil seed. Before Qing'er's spirit, I swore that I would take retribution on you, my unruly brothers and sisters. ”
Uncle Ku could no longer remain calm, his face was bruised, and he roared angrily like a man-eating beast.
Seeing Uncle Ku's delicate face turn like this, Ku Jiang was so frightened that he fell on the couch.
Uncle Ku watched the arrogance of the bitter Jiang clan disappear without a trace, and the indescribable happiness in his heart.
"After all these years, your days of power and fortune should be over. Hmph, I originally wanted to spare your life, but you are still looking forward to your good big brother, so you can go to meet your eldest brother under the Nine Springs. ”
Uncle Ku threw the bamboo slip in Ku Jiang's face. Ku Jiang looked at the bamboo slips and immediately panicked, but a sharp pain made her wake up, and she saw a sword stuck in her chest, and the hilt of the sword was holding Uncle Ku's slender woman's hand.
Ku Jiang remembered how much she liked these hands many years ago, and when her brother was about to marry herself, she did not hesitate to think of the owner of these hands.
She also understood why she hated his daughter so much, and she couldn't stand another woman taking this man's love.
She smiled bitterly and looked at Uncle Ku's still demeanor, wanting to reach out and touch it.
At this moment, she realized that when she first met in the study that day, she had a good impression of this man.
But he refused to believe it, so as not to betray his love and that of his brother.
By the time I realized it now, it was too late.
