Chapter 350: The Secret of the Yao Family
Xu Huaiyi listened to his words, but his heart moved, and he instantly had some thoughts, he pretended to be curious and asked, "Who can't be reincarnated, will become a ghost?" ”
Zhao Sanyou said mysteriously, "When you die, your resentment is too heavy, and if you are unwilling, it is said that you will turn into a powerful ghost, refuse to be reincarnated, and wait for revenge." ”
"What does it mean to be too resentful?"
"For example, those who have been treated unfairly, or suffered great grievances, and those who have died with hatred, are all very resentful, or they will die without a word, and most of those people will not be reincarnated normally."
Xu Huaiyi nodded solemnly, "I've been taught." ”
Zhao Sanyou laughed dryly, "What is this, that, Huaiyi, why are you asking about this?" ”
Xu Huaiyi groaned, "I'm wondering, what kind of situation is the ghost who appeared in Yao's house last night, is there grievance or hatred?" ”
Zhao Sanyou was stunned, and after a moment, he couldn't help but pat the table excitedly, "Yes, don't you know the origin of that ghost, and you also know the reason, why don't you go to other families and single out the Yao family?" There must be a grudge with the Yao family, first robbing money, and then hurting people, hahaha, the second master of the Yao family hurt there, it can be said that life is better than death, this revenge should be almost avenged, right? ”
Su Zhe's eyes flashed, "According to this, what happened in the Yao family last night was all caused by Second Master Yao?" ”
Zhao Sanyou said, "No, there is a debtor and a debtor, it wasn't the sin he created, why did the ghost pick him out and scare him?" ”
Su Zhe shook his fan slowly, "That's right, then Second Master Yao really deserved to be robbed like this, and he doesn't deserve sympathy." ”
Zhao Sanyou nodded vigorously and said with emotion, "It's not a gentleman to have revenge, or many people will shout before they die, 'I will turn into a ghost and I won't let you go', there is really such a thing as a dare to love." ”
The corners of Su Zhe's mouth twitched and looked at Xu Huaiyi, "Huaiyi, do you believe that there are ghosts and gods in this world?" ”
Xu Huaiyi nodded without hesitation.
Su Zhe raised his eyebrows, "Really believe?" ”
Xu Huaiyi said, "Of course, I have witnessed it with my own eyes, have you forgotten about the miracle in our Hutian Village?" What is that not God? And some time ago, the Changle Marquis Mansion was punished by thunder from the sky, and most of the people in the capital have seen it, so it's not all bluffing, right? Anyway, I believe that evil will be rewarded with evil, and good will be rewarded with good, it's not that we don't report it, the time has not yet come, so we have to do good deeds. ”
Su Zhe saw that he said frankly, even if he still had a little doubt in his heart, he couldn't confirm it, after all, he couldn't figure it out, it was easy for a person to pretend to be a ghost, but he could pretend to be so similar, and he deceived all the people of the Yao family, which was incredible, especially the descriptions from the Yao family, which were erratic, came and went without a trace, even if he was a master of light skills, he couldn't do it, right?
So, is it really a terrible ghost to take revenge? Nothing to do with Xu Huaiyi?
Back in the bedroom, there were only two people left, Li Yunting asked directly, "You didn't do the Yao family's business, right?" ”
Xu Huaiyi didn't feel a little weak, and spread his hands, "Do you think that with my current kung fu, I can achieve that kind of elusive point?" ”
Li Yunting shook his head and said very sincerely, "No." ”
Xu Huaiyi shrugged, "So, how could it be me?" I followed the master to learn light skills, not a few days, barely able to neatly climb over the wall, the eaves and the wall can't go, let alone come without a trace, go without a trace, I don't have that much ability, besides, according to the news from the Yao family, the things lost in the study, there are several huge jade ornaments, plus it has to be one or two hundred catties, I have a hard time carrying them, and I can carry them to avoid the courtyard in the house and then escape? ”
Li Yunting furrowed his brows, "It's really impossible." ”
"Besides, if it's really me, I'm not stupid, I have a way to get into the study, why don't you hurry up and find a handle that can handle the Yao family, what are you doing stealing those jades? If you have a handle, you can clean up the Yao family, and only let them break a little money, which is too cheap for them. Xu Huaiyi looked like he was very calm.
He was not afraid of Li Yunting's suspicions, no matter how suspicious he was, he would not be able to find evidence.
Li Yunting thought thoughtfully, "You're right, is it really a powerful ghost who went to seek revenge on the Yao family?" ”
"When you rule out all the impossible, the rest, no matter how unbelievable, is true." After Xu Huaiyi finished speaking, he added, "I didn't say this, I read it from the book." ”
"What book?"
"Uh, the book."
Li Yunting glanced at him, didn't ask any more questions, and turned back to the topic just now, "If it was done by a ghost, it can be regarded as an indirect breath for you, the Yao family's loss this time is not small, not only ruined the wealth, but also hurt people, and the reputation was also affected, I asked, Yao Changchang didn't come to school today." ”
Xu Huaiyi said, "What you plant, what you get." ”
Li Yunting nodded, "You're right, it's all your own fault, so are you still fighting back?" ”
Xu Huaiyi muttered, "Not for the time being, the Yao family is on the cusp of the storm right now, I make a move at this time, it is easy to be targeted, I have already arranged for someone to sneak into the Yao family to keep an eye on, no matter what the situation is, I can know it in advance, but I think ...... Since the Yao family is entangled by a powerful ghost, I don't think the bad luck will be like last night, and eighty percent will suffer in the future, I will wait to watch the play. ”
"Do you think last night was just the beginning, and there will be a follow-up?"
"We'll see."
He didn't have time to go into the RV at noon to chat with his daughter-in-law, so he could only wait for the evening, and in the afternoon, the Yao family's affairs spread all over the college, especially the statement of revenge of the ghost, most people believed it, and only thought that the Yao family had done something wrong, so there was a ghost calling the door, and it was also deserved.
But it is not only the Yao family who does bad things, so some people are inevitably frightened, lest they also follow in the footsteps of the Yao family, so that the Taoist priests suddenly became very popular, and they are secretly looking for advanced spells, so please go home to exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts.
At the same time, the previous haunting in the academy was also mentioned again, now, the courtyard is still empty, no one dares to go in to live, this old thing is about to be forgotten, and now the Yao family is rumored to be haunted, okay, to contact together, privately, many students are speculating that Xiang Chao did a few people at that time, so that they will provoke the ghost to call the door, in addition, they are also secretly vigilant, and they must not create any injustice in the future, otherwise there are really powerful ghosts to ask for revenge, they will definitely not be able to hide.
In this way, it inadvertently saved many souls who were about to 'lose their footing', and there were many fewer people who did evil in the future.
When Xu Huaiyi learned about it, he was overjoyed.
Of course, this is a later story, at the moment, Xu Huaiyi is worried about the letters and account books he stole back from Yao's house, so he can't stay up until the evening, and after getting into the RV, he can't wait to ask, "Daughter-in-law, tell me quickly, suffocate me......"
Gu Huanxi had already written down the important information he had sorted out on a blank piece of paper and handed it to him, "You can read it for yourself first." ”
Xu Huaiyi took it, the more he looked at it, the bigger his eyes widened, and he muttered in his mouth, "Good guy, really good guy, I didn't expect the Yao family to be so capable, a small five-grade official, can stir up the wind and rain, and hide it really deep enough......"
After he finished reading, Gu Huanxi asked, "What do you think?" ”
Xu Huaiyi patted his chest, "Let me slow down first, it's really amazing at this moment, it's really unseemly, you really can't underestimate any person in the officialdom, even if it's a small official, maybe at a critical time, it can play a earth-shaking role, just like a pawn, no matter how inconspicuous it is, it can determine life and death in one step." ”
He chattered for a while before he calmed down, took the paper, and half-lay down next to his daughter-in-law, "Let's talk about the catty in this account book first, looking at these records, it is far away for more than ten years, that is to say, since he entered the officialdom, he has begun to keep the bottom, what a far-sighted person......"
"How many of these names do you know?"
"Most of them know, before the master gave me science popularization of all the officials who can go to the court, I don't know if they go out of Beijing, you see a few of them are relatively old, and now they can all do the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials Zuo Shilang......"
"Well, it seems that he bribed these people to stay in the capital and serve, and he also entered the Ministry of Rites and was promoted to the rank of Wupin official."
"These are ordinary, giving gifts to Shangguan, especially the officials, is simply a convention, otherwise so many Jinshi are waiting to send officials, why are they sent to you? Either go to the relationship or stuff the silver, I am surprised that this ......"
Gu Huanxi sighed, "Yes, when I watched it at the time, I was also very surprised, the daughter of the Yao family entered the Meng family of Pingyuan Bofu, and the daughter of the Meng family entered the Great Prince's Mansion, but you see in this account book, the Yao family has never sent benefits to the Great Prince's Mansion, but to this King of Chu...... Sent one stroke after another, the time span is not short, I calculated, at least seven years, what does this mean? ”
Xu Huaiyi said in a trance, "It shows that Yao Changjun has long been the person of the King of Chu, the eldest daughter of the Yao family married into the Pingyuan Uncle's mansion, and it is all the plan of the King of Chu to keep it up, although the situation of Pingyuan Uncle has deteriorated in the past few years, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and there is still a need to win over, look, but let him be blinded, the Meng family has a Ping'an county lord, and it makes people look up to a few points in the capital, and the size is also a force, no wonder, last time I had dinner in Chunshui Building, I saw Meng Chonglou following the prince of Chu......"
"Meng Chonglou? The father of Meng Yao, the lord of Ping'an County? Didn't you say that he was a gentleman? Can the prince of Chu still play with him? ”
"Cover people's eyes and ears, play with him, so as not to make people think too much, if you play with Meng Chongshan, it won't be a clear win?"
Gu Huanxi was thoughtful.
Xu Huaiyi asked, "What do you want?" ”
Gu Huanxi looked at him, "Ping'an County Lord Meng Yao." ”
"The Reborn?"
"Well, every step of her should be useful, for example, through the prophet, she won the attention of the Meng family, and also sought the title of county lord for herself, and even married the daughter of the Meng family into the Great Prince's Mansion early and occupied the position of the harem concubine, this step by step is all for a clear purpose, right?"
Xu Huaiyi nodded, confused, "Yes, what's wrong?" Didn't she just use herself to live an extra life and play poor information, we really can't compare to this, but we can stare at her and analyze some useful content. ”
"Yes, the information is poor, this is the most important bargaining chip in her hand, she knows that in her previous life, it was the eldest prince who sat on the throne, so now when no one is optimistic about the eldest prince, she sent the daughter of the Meng family in, even if it is for the side concubine, but why does she want her father to follow the prince of Chu?"
Xu Huaiyi's eyelids jumped, "Could it be that the King of Chu secretly supports the eldest prince?" I think the eldest prince is soft and easy to control, and I want to support him to become the regent himself after he ascends the throne? Therefore, the eldest prince was able to defeat other princes and sit on the throne in the end, not because of the leakage, but because of the credit of the king of Chu? And Meng Yao knew these inside stories, and knew that even if the eldest prince became the emperor, he didn't have any real power in his hands, so he had to talk to King Chu in advance? ”
Gu Huanxi was speechless, "Since the King of Chu has the ability to support the eldest prince to ascend to the throne, why don't you simply ascend the throne as the emperor himself?" ”
Xu Huaiyi said as a matter of course, "The reputation is not good, there are six princes who have survived Emperor Jianxing today, and they have to continue to live after they are not guaranteed, even if they are all killed, in terms of relatives and distance, there are also princes, King Ping, King An, and there are many sons and daughters under their knees, and the King of Chu wants to take the throne, so how many people do you have to kill?" If so many people die in the royal family, there will be only one line left of the King of Chu, what do you say about the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and the people of the whole world to look at him? Is he still secure the throne? ”
Gu Huanxi groaned, "What you said is reasonable, but I always feel that this is not the case. ”
"Do you doubt that the King of Chu can also sit on the throne? Didn't the eldest prince be overthrown after only a few years? ”
"Or maybe he was killed."
"Huh?"
Gu Huanxi saw his frightened expression, and said angrily, "As for it?" So many palace fighting dramas have been watched in vain? Is it unusual for someone to die in the palace? Concubines, princes, and emperors are all vulnerable groups, okay? ”
"That's right, then our little fish ......"
Gu Huanxi furrowed his brows, "So we can't be in a hurry, let's take one step at a time, if the final winner is really the King of Chu, and the eldest prince is just his springboard, then we must not let Xiaoyu's identity be exposed." ”
Xu Huaiyi nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, it's too dangerous...... thinking of something, his tone was stunned, "Daughter-in-law, didn't I tell you before, don't you suspect that someone deceived the victims to be private soldiers?" I haven't found out who it is, the person sent by the second prince was tricked, my master reminded me not to meddle in this matter, we also guessed it, now that I think about it, do you think it will be the king of Chu? ”
Gu Huanxi smiled bitterly, "It's possible to ......"
"Then how did he end up in power? It's not going to be bloodied in the palace, is it? ”
Gu Huanxi shook his head, "I don't know, looking at Yao Changjun's letters, there is no Chu Wangfu in them." ”
"The king of Chu must be cautious, it is easy to leave a handle when writing a letter, if you have any orders, just send a henchman to pass the word."
"Well, you're right, Yao Changjun should have received his order before contacting those officials who were released, this is cultivating power for the King of Chu, there are already several, and the position is not low, even the county order of our Tong County is it, isn't it magical?"
Xu Huaiyi thought of his shock when he first saw the words of Tongxian, and sighed, "Amazing, how can it not be magical?" Dare to love that we have a relationship with the capital, I now suspect that there is a place for Shenglong Pavilion, Bacheng is the sphere of influence of the King of Chu, and the glass we were at the beginning may have been given to the King of Chu. ”
"What are you going to do?"
"King Chu won't be a good emperor, no matter how good his reputation is, what he does behind his back is not a gentleman, can the Yao family he collected be a good thing? There is also the county order of Tong County, during the drought, he didn't make any political achievements, and he was also a mediocre talent, and he didn't do anything for the people. ”
"So what?"
"We can't let him take the throne, otherwise it will be difficult for the people."
Gu Huanxi complained speechlessly, "Just the two of us?" Do you look down on the King of Chu or do you look down on yourself? ”
Xu Huaiyi said with a smile, "I didn't say that I would pull him off the horse all at once, plan slowly, isn't there still a buffer of the eldest prince in the middle?" Let's start by cutting off his forces, let's cut as much as he cultivates, and see how he rebels in the future, just while the old emperor is still here, let them fight in the ring, otherwise after the turn of the eldest prince to take the throne, he will definitely not be his opponent. ”
