15 Su Cong, the grass people
Because of having a "big fat son", Su Jingyi also reviewed the kneeling and saluting before going to bed.
After all, you have to follow the locals!
The next day, he was in high spirits, skillfully dressed in filial piety clothes, and put on a military uniform. There is no way to compare with filial piety, and the emperor's order is a higher level of existence.
Accompanied by Jinyi Wei, their group directly entered the gate of the capital unimpeded and came directly to Beizhen Fusi.
Smelling the smell of blood wafting out of the gate, Su Jingyi looked at the wide open door, and felt like he had seen a fierce beast open its bloody mouth, which made him feel terrified for a moment, and completely understood what feudal society was.
You must know that the privileged institution of Jinyiwei will basically appear once in the novels of the ancient dynasties. The functions are the same, they are all secret agencies directly under the emperor, dealing with cases appointed by the emperor, and they also have independent prisons, called imperial prisons. Therefore, it is a combination of arrest, interrogation, execution, and execution, and it is the most powerful and the sharpest knife in the hands of the emperor! What you can do is completely free from the normal legal channels!
It is a retrogression of the rule of law!
Thinking about the knowledge points she had memorized for the Fa exam, Su Jingyi swallowed nervously.
Previously, he didn't feel much about the cheap Hou Ye's low-key complaint about Jinyiwei's investigation. Because the two brocade guards who followed were really low-key, they couldn't be found in the crowd.
Can ...... now
Cautiously followed Su Congbin, Su Jingyi still relied on his own rural area, he had never seen the world, and directly took Su Cong's hand.
Su Cong clenched Su Jingyi with his backhand.
By heart, he ...... He was also a little scared.
He was born and grew up in the capital, and he has heard of and seen the bloody methods of Jinyiwei with his own eyes.
The case they are personally staring at, after the punishment results come out, Jinyiwei will personally be the executioner.
On the guillotine, he was beheaded directly with a knife in his hand, which is the easiest way for a condemned prisoner to die; The punishment of 3,600 knives is also called happiness for criminals. The most torturous thing is the grilling, the criminals are like pigs, horses, cattle and sheep barbecue skewers, they are skewered and slowly cooked on the gallows, and occasionally sprinkled with green onions. And the executioner of the execution even grilled real meat skewers next to him, eating slowly and leisurely, and his face did not change.
Thinking of the punishment he witnessed when he was a child, Su Cong was terrified and almost oozing out of his bones.
He had to be cautious and cautious in everything he did before, almost walking on thin ice, refusing to say a word or take more steps easily, lest he add trouble to his family.
But...... But now it's different.
Feeling the unfamiliar warmth coming from his palm, Su Cong gritted his teeth to restrain his fear and forced himself to straighten his spine.
He's different now!
's father told him privately that Su Jingyi's "father-son" relationship was a bit whimsical. But if you think about it in other words, it is slightly more reasonable for him Su Cong to be his father-in-law and Su Jingyi to be his grandson.
Because Su Congbin, who is a "grandfather", can also be a "grandson" and kiss from generation to generation, don't beat Su Jingyi, who is not good at learning!
He agrees with this!!!
As the "sixth generation", Su Jingyi also has more and more desire to struggle, so that he can also burn his fighting spirit, no longer willing to fall because of his identity as a merchant, but try his best to think about changing the court!
Thinking about it, Su Cong burned with the fighting spirit of being a father, held Su Jingyi's hand tightly, and led people step by step into Beizhen Fusi.
Looking at the two young masters of the Su family, true and false, side by side, striding with their heads held high, quite a posture of being a husband and a wife, the Jinyi Guard, who had been secretly observing, commanded Zhong Xing to slowly pace and greet him.
"Suhou, you have worked hard. I never expected you to come in person. The lower officials are not welcomed. ”
Su Congbin stopped his surprise.
Even if the official of the post house bent down and bowed, he was burning with blood and pride at that time, and accepted it without hesitation. But...... He didn't dare to accept the power in his hands, Jinyi Wei saluted, hurriedly avoided it, and even was quite polite and thoughtful: "Commander Zhong, you are polite." It's all because Su is not strict in governing the family, and you and Jinyiwei help finish it up. Don't talk about officialdom, the lower officials are just a mere five-grade outsider, how dare you bow down! ”
When the Jinyi guards who followed the command heard this, they looked at Su Congbin, who was still respectful, and looked at each other: They all heard what happened at the post station last night. The boss has a lot of opinions about this, but their only feeling is that the Su family is still loyal, that's all. There is no need for them to command the adults to come out to greet them personally!
However, they are still satisfied with Su Congbin's attitude.
Seeing the two greeting each other, Su Jingyi followed slowly, bending over in a similar way. Anyway, he is new to the city, and the main thing is to be a courtesy, and many people are not to blame! After following the guidance into the flower hall, which looked like a place for hospitality rather than a public court, he dared to take a quick peek at the commander.
After all, the commander!
This boss!
Commander Zhong seems to be from a military background, even if people are stubbornly fiddling with some officialdom etiquette, they can't change the killing aura exuded by people.
"This is the little boy, right?" Zhong Xing felt someone's curious gaze, and also raised his eyes directly to look at Su Jingyi, and praised: "It's a smart and alert person." It is reported that the two villages fought, and all of them were due to the alertness of the little boy, but they stopped a private fight. ”
"Commander Zhong has overrated you. It's also because this kid is crawling, he has experienced a lot at a young age, and he has some experience. Su Congbin was humble in his words, and even stood up and replied, his posture extremely low: "The struggle can be stopped, thanks to the two thousand households who urged the county order to do a good job of appeasing afterwards." ”
"Su Hou, you have always been kind, I know. And I won't tell you the truth, thanks to the craftsmen you sent to find them. This craftsman really found a water source in Qingyuan County. And it is quite abundant, which can alleviate the drought situation in the whole county. Three hundred miles in an emergency, just last night. Commander Zhong looked at Su Congbin, who was so respectful, his smile deepened a little, and he slowly told the reason why he went out to greet him: "Therefore, this official has asked you to say a word of joy." ”
Su Hou's eyes lit up, and then he bent down: "I don't dare to praise this." I'm just doing my part. I just want to do something for my child, but it's just selfishness. Na Sukin's ......"
Commander Zhong slowly put the teacup on the coffee table: "Master Hou, the right should be for the sake of the princess who protects the country, and the official will say something to the bottom." If the master doesn't hold you accountable, Su Congbin's lack of strict governance of the family is already an extrajudicial grace. The imperial court attacked you, and there were many clear streams of attacking the founding nobles. At this juncture, you still don't have to think about it, everyone belongs to you, and the merchant is the merchant! ”
The sudden coercion made Su Jingyi tremble in fright, and she stood up straight, not daring to sit and act as an ignorant boy.
Su Cong knelt directly on the ground, and spoke extremely fast: "Thank you for the guidance of the commander, Su Cong knows that everyone will belong to you, and there will definitely be no thoughts about it!" ”
After saying that, he heard his resolute response seem to float in the air, and only then did he begin to be afraid.
After all, this ...... With this idea, he didn't look at Su Congbin's face.
But the dignified commander said everything so bluntly, he didn't dare to imagine how the court was staring at the Su family at the moment. After all, the drought is a matter of participation, and the more it is played, the more upset the emperor is. can participate in the honorable and noble, and participate in the Su family, which is not liked by the emperor, some courtiers must be happy. Maybe you will want to copy the Su family, so that you can give more silver for disaster relief!
At the same time, Su Congbin's face suddenly darkened, and he also speculated that people just said a few more words for the sake of easing the drought and making the emperor happy. But if some things are not said at this time, he may not find a chance in the future.
pondering, Su Congbin took a breath and bent his waist lower: "The commander makes the adults so careless, thinking about the Su family, I, Su Congbin, naturally feel it." It's just that as a father, there are always some thoughts, if ...... If according to the household registration policy of Qingyuan County, Su Cong is attached to Shijia Village, can he be a farmer? Don't listen to Cong'er's nonsense, he is young and ignorant. This kid is a nine-year-old Xiucai Gong, Xiao Sanyuan, and the youngest Xiucai Gong in Da Zhou! ”
"Da Zhou Chaopin Rong Guohou, do you want to be a talented man and don't want the Su family?" Zhong Xing said coldly: "You also know that he is Xiao Sanyuan. It's too young. Those of them who read have a saying that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind! ”
Su Congbin heard this like falling into the abyss, and his whole body stiffened.
If you are a real merchant, you will ...... You can only follow the martial arts.
But at present, it can be regarded as a peaceful and prosperous era, and there are very few opportunities for military generals to come out.
"Thank you, Commander Zhong, for your advice." Su Congbin pondered "their scholars", and immediately had a few sentences to condescend to his dignity and communicate with him in person: Wenchen!
These ministers regarded Jinyiwei as the emperor's lackey, and they were afraid of Jinyiwei but worried about Jinyiwei's power, and from time to time they would play a book and quote various scriptures. And Wen Chen, who is also a little scrutinized and a little jealous of the emergence of a young talent among the children of Wu Xun, especially Wu Xun who is as down-and-out as they are, is considered unworthy of being born as a Wenqu star.
Therefore, the enemy of the enemy is the friend.
"My two children are pure and filial, and I am not afraid of your jokes, Cong'er actually wants to avenge her mother in person. Even shouting that even exile at the border can't. After all, military generals have more opportunities to get ahead, and they are more fair, and they are allowed to make meritorious contributions! Therefore, the lower officials were afraid that they would be young and vigorous and would be instigated by some well-intentioned people. Please give me some advice. Su Congbin took out the silver ticket that had been prepared from his sleeve: "I am stupid, if it weren't for the nobles, the emperor instructed me, Su someone's own ability, he might starve to death when he finds Su Jingyi." And my Su family will be exiled because of this true and false young master scandal. ”
Looking at Su Congbin, who was so obedient, Zhong Xing directly took the silver ticket, glanced at the amount and the stamp of the emperor's private treasury maritime merchant firm, and seemed to smile: "Master Hou, you are really too polite." We're all loyalists, so we don't have anything to hide from you. The atmosphere of the Guozijian is really too bad. Some masters do not want to make progress and covet the glory of Tung Wah College. Therefore, they pondered that through your Su family, they would drive out all those tribute students who were the country's eunuchs, and in the eyes of the master, a rat feces and a pot of porridge. ”
"What?" Su Congbin couldn't restrain himself from being shocked, and was angry: "This ...... This...... This is the number of shade places stipulated by Tai and Grandpa. ”
Gongsheng is the son of an official eunuch, but to be exact, a son of Wuxun. Officials only have one place, and they must be descendants of their descendants, but Wu Xun can have two! And there is no limit to the use of the quota, which can be given to your own children or to the potential stocks you like.
"Hou Ye is also temperamental. Calm down first. Commander Zhong smiled: "In addition, Donghua Academy is also a little cautious and wants to see Su Cong's choice." If it is a merchant, then their income is really the core of the descendants. In the future, it will also be a good seedling of the clear stream. ”
"They have stopped their defense since they found out what happened at the inn last night."
As he spoke, Commander Zhong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he glanced at Su Cong.
This glance, as if looking at the value of a commodity, was accompanied by contempt from above. But for Su Cong, it was a bit like using a knife to shatter the last innocence and purity in his brain. It made him instantly surge with a thirst for power.
Otherwise, no matter how much he is a businessman, even the Su family, even if there is a lintel of the Hou Mansion, is just a pawn in the hands of the powerholder, and he has no right to speak. It's not even as good as the common people, who can look forward to tomorrow in peace.
"Commander Zhong, please forgive the boy for being bold." Su Cong knelt on the ground: "Father mentioned the exile meritorious service earlier, I ...... No, grass people ......"
The tip of his tongue turned, forcing himself to tell two words that he had never said before, even if he was excluded by the children of the family again-grass people, Su Cong's eyes were red, and he said hoarsely: "Actually...... In fact, there are more daring ideas. If the grass people make meritorious service and obtain the status of a military general. After that day, he was disarmed and returned to the field, which is the official registration. Is it possible to participate in the cultural competition? The grass people don't fight for steamed buns, I want to fight for breath! The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knew that the emperor was gracious and handed over the matter of the true and false young master to Jinyiwei for thorough investigation, but these people had their own plans before Jinyiwei closed the case, and even ignored the spirit of the deceased mother in the sky. ”
"This revenge will be avenged for the sons of man, and they must be repaid with the ranking of the imperial examination that they are proud of!"
The loud words resounded in the flower hall with resentment.
As for the hatred and hatred of those who are determined to take revenge, as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, who is the megatron of the world and has been ridiculed for countless unjust, false and wrongful cases, he is disdainful. But the one in front of me is a little different.
He gave a clear plan.
Sighing with emotion, Zhong Xing was very interested, and it was rare to look at Su Cong with his eyes down: "Wu Zhuanwen? This has never happened before, has it? I don't read much, and I've only heard of those who abandoned their pens and followed Rong, and I've heard of civilian officials leading troops to fight, but I haven't heard of military generals writing champions. ”
Having said that, the atmosphere of bloody revenge is burning.
As Su Cong's adoptive father and as the head of the Su family, Su Congbin rarely straightened his back, hugged his fist in the direction of the palace, and respectfully said: "Commander, you are laughing." My ancestors have been given the seal of superb, and it has never appeared before. But too, grandpa is sealed, rewarded! So this may be the backbone of the Su family. Those people can ignore and ridicule the Su family, but there is no rule to be a man and leave a line, that is, to force the dog into the poor alley! Our Su family naturally has to fight back. ”
This sentence is conclusive, and there is also obvious anger. It's not at all like what officialdom shrunken turtle Su Congbin said. But inexplicably, he suddenly had some faith, and Su Congbin should also have some backbone.
"Then I'm looking forward to it. But before the ugly words, Hou Ye still took care of the housework first. The emperor is gracious once, and there will be no second time. Zhong Xing's eyes swept back and forth over the three members of the Su family, and gave the right words: "Xungui's children are not successful, the emperor has ordered us to punish us with a small punishment and a big commandment, and the participating students will each play 30 boards, and Ling Yue and Su Yu will play 50 boards and expel the Guozi Prison." As for the Master, he will be stripped of his fame. However, the most important thing for your Su family is that there is a disagreement with the political opinions, the Li family from Donghua Academy, and the guide of literary debate. ”
"Thank you for your advice." Su Congbin bent over.
Seeing this, Su Jingyi followed the same gourd and saluted.
Su Cong even knelt down and bowed. After all, he is a merchant, not a nobleman, and he has to bow down when he sees an official.
Looking at the three father and son with good etiquette, Zhong Xing was quite satisfied: "Originally, the merchant was uprooted. But the embroidery building also has some connections, and if we pay attention to it, it seems that the case of the true or false young master is too important. On the contrary, it provoked those people to chase after them more and more. Therefore, the Su family's shopkeeper and slaves will be dealt with easily. ”
"I hope that the Hou Ye will forgive me, and explain a thing or two to the noble lady, and we will try our best to be considerate."
"This is natural, the shopkeeper and servants can handle this, and they are already tired of you.
"Speaking of which, it is also because I am not strict in governing the family, which has affected the emperor and the princess who protects the country in the past, and I have been ashamed. I have to ask the conductor to make you say a few kind words. ”
"Then Master Hou is here, please, the verification process of the eldest young master is still needed." Zhong Xing got up.
From a little boy to a young master, although Su Jingyi doesn't understand, she also learns from each other and is extremely obedient. Following the guidance of Jinyiwei, the ten fingers were pressed on the ink, which made it easy for people to compare with the original household registration and land deed, and also sat obediently, so that Bai Mama, the imperial merchant Su family's washing three grandmothers, who had participated in the full moon ceremony and other ceremonies, still remembered Su Jingyi's people, identified them one by one.
It was determined that Su Jingyi, who was ten years old at the moment, was Su Jingyi of Su Chengyan and Su Jin's family, and Su Jingyi, who had been in the spotlight since the age of six.
After Su Jingyi held back the complaint that the "core" could not be tested, her phoenix eyes were raised, and she looked at the official seal in the hand of Commander Zhong with a solemn expression.
When this seal is knocked down, it means that the emperor certifies who the eldest son of the true and false young master of the great Zhou Chaopin Rongguo Marquis is, and it is completely clear.
Only...... Just like a newborn baby in modern times, with a birth permit issued by the hospital.
You can get a household registration and you can apply for an ID card.
