Chapter 473: Jizhou Strategy (15)
When the judge gave an order, the sergeants on the left and right listened to it, and one by one they rushed forward like wolves and tigers, and tripped over the galloping horses and fell to the ground. Then he grabbed the grip and pressed the legs, and in a few moments he bound the knights. The first knight, but it was a young man, whose shoulders were held down by several arms, and he was still unconvinced, and while struggling desperately, he shouted: "Slave! Do you know who I am, and dare to do this? ”
When the soldiers heard this, although they never let go, the strength in their hands was invisibly weaker. Hearing the young man's clamour, the judge became even more angry, rushed to him in a few steps, leaned down and picked up the horsewhip on the ground, whipped it, and scolded: "You are the eldest prince, and you must also be martialed in the market!" ”
The young man was whipped by this whip, and a blood mark appeared on his face, and his body was also in hot pain. He has been clothed and fed since he was a child, how could he have suffered such hardships, and he was angry in his heart, but he didn't dare to say another word. This man is so fierce that if he quarrels with him, he will have to suffer. So he just lowered his head and kept silent, so as not to be looked at.
When the judge saw that he had whipped down, the young man obeyed and obeyed, and the anger in his heart subsided a little, so he threw the horsewhip on the ground and said to the left and right: "Escort back to the government office, so that you can take care of it." I'll judge him when I get home. ”
After speaking, he ordered the sergeant to escort these people to evacuate first, but he persuaded the complaining people on the spot. After dealing with it, the judge hurried back to his house, ordered the prisoners to be brought up, and then asked the young man who was the leader: "Who are you?" ”
The young man glanced at the judge, his eyes were afraid, and he said: "The boy's surname is Xu, he is the fifth in the family, and his father is secretive, and he is serving in front of the general's account. ”
When the judge heard that he was Xu You's son, he was very unhappy in his heart. Xu You is a minister in the same hall with him, but he has always relied on being a lord and an old minister, he likes to show his qualifications, not to mention, and he has always been open-mouthed, which has offended many people. It's just that he doesn't know how to converge, but he is very greedy and loves land and money. In the past, there was a miasma of smoke in the door, and now they still connive at the wanton behavior of the children in the family, so what's the point?
The trial made up his mind in an instant, Xu Wulang couldn't spare the past, and he had to let him suffer a lot before he would know what the laws and rules were. His father doesn't teach, I'll teach!
So the judge said: "Drag it down, whip it twenty times, and punish it as a subordinate!" ”
After hearing this, Xu Wulang couldn't help but be shocked, his eyes were round, at first he was incredulous, and then Xu wanted to be angry, but he forcibly suppressed it, and lowered his head to beg for mercy: "Don't drive, the kid knows that he is wrong, and he still wants to see his father's face, and spare the kid once." ”
Lichen is a kind of fixed-term imprisonment in the Han Dynasty, although it is very light, but it is also the work of miscellaneous servants. At this time, the gate valve had been formed, and the scholars were very different from ordinary people, let alone slaves who operated cheap business. Xu Wulang is Xu You's sister-in-law, he has been pampered since he was a child, he is arrogant, he still has some bottom lines, and he also has a good father, so some trivial things that he causes on weekdays are also covered up by Xu You. This time, the horse galloped and collided with the trial patrol city, he thought he was unlucky, and he could bear it with 20 lashes from the trial, but he could never agree to the punishment as a subordinate.
This will not only make his father Xu Yu lose face, but also make him lose face among the children of a family in the city. As long as he thought that he had been assigned to run errands everywhere, and that he had to go to the fields to work with the farmers, and then there was a family of people laughing and laughing next to him, he felt that if this was the case, he might as well die.
Xu Wulang begged bitterly, judging where to respond. Seeing that Xu Wulang was still obsessed, he said sharply: "Where are you left and right, drag it down with me!" ”
Xu Wulang was arrested, and the news soon spread to the Xu Mansion. Xu You was not there, and his wife, Mrs. Xu, listened to it at home and couldn't help but be shocked, so she busily passed on the housekeeper and ordered him to go to the trial house to intercede. After a while, the steward replied that the inquisitor had disappeared behind closed doors. Mrs. Xu's heart couldn't help but pinch, thinking that her beloved son would suffer hardships and be frightened, she couldn't help herself and cried sadly. After all, it was a housewife, and after crying for a while, she stopped her mourning and said to the steward: "And take my letter and go to the eldest prince's mansion." ”
The steward went to Yuan Tan's mansion again as he said. Yuan Tan also listened to the report of the people in the palace who had arrested Xu Wulang. Xu Wulang and several family members are together all day long, and there will always be some trouble. and disturbed the peace in the city. Now that he has been judged and bumped into, it is better to treat him and others. So I didn't care. was sitting in the study, and suddenly came with a report, saying that the steward of the Xu Mansion had asked to see Mrs. Xu outside the mansion with a letter.
When Yuan Tan heard this, he knew that he was here to intercede, and he didn't want to see it, but suddenly he thought about it again, and said to his relatives: "You take the letter and bring it to me." ”
After listening to it, he bowed and went out. Yuan Tan sat quietly on the chair, and couldn't help but think for a while. He is the eldest son of Yuan Shaoyan, and it is natural for him to inherit his father's inheritance. However, his father Yuan Shao favored his third brother Yuan Shang, and after Yuan Shao went to Luoyang, he raised troops against Dong in Guandong, which annoyed Dong Zhuo and killed the Yuan family who was still in Luoyang. Every time Yuan Shao thought about it, he cried endlessly. Because of the guilt in his heart, Yuan Shao wanted to take his eldest son Yuan Tan as the heir of his brother Yuan Ji. After such a news spread, countless people were moved by it.
Yuan Shao was also kind-hearted, wanting his brother who died tragically because of himself to have a descendant to worship. As a result, the hearts of the people below are floating. One faction of people wished that Yuan Tan would succeed Yuan Ji, but the other faction of people protected Yuan Tan to the death, and the two groups of people quarreled over the issue of heirs. Yuan Shao also had a headache. Originally, his three sons were all adults, and he had to set up an heir early. The result has been delayed until now. It's no wonder that Cao Cao said that Yuan Shao was late.
Yuan Tan was naturally unwilling to let the third Yuan Shang get this foundation. However, his father's heavy ministers were judged, and Feng Ji did not have a good relationship with him. It's a real headache. But today's incident is an opportunity. If you can save Xu Jiagolang, then Xu You, who has always been neutral in the matter of establishing an heir, has to admit his favor.
Just thinking about it, the pro casually took the letter, Yuan Tan opened it and saw that it was the case, so he said to the pro: "You go and inform the Xu family's steward, and say that I know about it." ”
The housekeeper of the Xu family got the letter, and hurriedly went back to the house to report. Yuan Tan sat down for a while, then wrote a letter, and was about to order someone to send it to the trial mansion, but suddenly thought about it, Zhen Zhengnan has never been emotional, and this matter must be done properly by me.
So he ordered to change his clothes, passed the car, and went all the way out of the house to the trial mansion.
