Chapter Fifty-Eight: Selling Charcoal
Yun Hao and Yu Lao followed the prestige, and saw an eleven or twelve-year-old boy holding the arm of a strong man in black shirt. The strong man in black shirt was holding a horizontal knife in his hand, and he was thrown out with just a flick of his arm.
His head slammed against the wall, and the blood flowed down like two red gummy candies.
"Brother! What's wrong with you, brother! You can't die! A little girl of seven or eight years old, with a muddy face, ran up to the young man and shook the young man's body desperately.
"Humph! Don't inquire, Lao Tzu's main family is the new Huoyi City Warden Lord Sun. You dare to shout here, Lao Tzu killed you like killing a chicken and a dog. The black shirt was not afraid when he saw that he had injured someone, but pinched his waist and pointed at the young man like a teapot and scolded.
"This official, my brothers and sisters are cutting and burning charcoal on the mountain. It's just to change the stuttering, and to grab medicine for the seriously ill uncle. It's all life-saving money, you can do it. Please! Ignoring the wound on his head, the young man knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the black-shirted man.
"Look what, get out!" The black shirts saw more and more onlookers, and although many people didn't say anything, their eyes were enough to prove their dissatisfaction. The black-shirted man pulled out half of his knife, and the onlookers dispersed in a hurry. After the Jinyang army entered the city, the residual power had not yet dissipated, and the people of Huoyi were obviously frightened.
"Hey! Who doesn't use red silk and silk to meet accounts, can't you exchange this thing for food? It seems that Lao Tzu bullied you, half a foot of red silk and a zhang of silk are to see that you are pitiful and preferential to you, and others don't have these. Roll on! If you mourn here again, Lao Tzu will kick you to death. With that, he stretched out his big feet and kicked the poor young man on his heels.
"Official, Hong Aya and Aya can't be money envoys! If you give us these things, the owner of the rice shop and the pharmacy will not accept them. If I can't buy rice today, my younger siblings and uncles will all die. Please! The young man pounced again, hugging the thighs of the black shirt and refusing to let go.
"Get out of your mother, they don't care about Lao Tzu. That's all, love or not. I'm not joking, if you don't roll again, I'll break your legs. The black shirt slammed the young man's back with a scabbard, and smashed it many times before he could be regarded as smashing the young man out of his hand.
"Brother......!" The little girl hugged the young man, and saw that the corners of the young man's mouth were bloody, and he squatted on the side and only knew how to cry.
"Cutting and burning charcoal in the southern mountains. His face was full of dust and smoke, and his temples were pale and his fingers were black. What is the profit from selling charcoal? The clothes on the body eat in the mouth. The poor shirt is single, and the heart is worried and wishes for the cold. At night, a foot of snow outside the city came, and Xiao drove a charcoal cart to roll the ice ruts. The cattle are trapped and the people are hungry, and they are resting in the mud outside the south gate of the city. Who are the two riders? The yellow-clothed messenger is white-shirted. The hand put the paperwork in his mouth, and returned to the car and led the ox to the north. A cart of charcoal, more than 1,000 catties, the palace envoy will not regret it. Half a horse of red silk and a zhang of silk, tied to the head of the cow to fill the charcoal straight. Yun Hao involuntarily began to chant.
"In addition to the two temples, your words are very appropriate. I used to think that you were cruel to the eldest grandson Xiaozheng, but now it seems that from the small to the big, the family style of the eldest grandson's family is really not very good. The fisherman twisted his beard, and his face was gloomy like the bottom of a pot.
"The community is the boat, the people are the water, and the water can carry the boat and capsize the boat. The common people could not reach the emperor, they could only see these grassroots officials. What the officials are like is their impression of the imperial court. After looking at what is in front of you, do you still think that the people will go to war for such a court? The people's hearts are back, which is the fundamental reason for the decline of the Great Sui River. What a pity! The current Xungui still doesn't learn this lesson, and in order to save a few firewood and carbon money, he insists on forcing the family to death. If the Li family uses such an official, the overthrow of the society will be a matter of the moment. ”
Yun Hao sighed deeply, it is common for the world to be unfair. But there is a degree to everything, and after this degree, even Da Luo Jin Immortal has no skills to return to heaven. The Great Sui Dynasty has fallen from so prosperous to today's point. In addition to Yang Guang's reasons, it is more the result of these noble fish and meat people.
"Okay, you kid, you actually said that my head of the commune will not be long in coming. Come on, take it down for Lao Tzu! A guy in a fur coat broke off behind Yun Hao, and then several big men rushed towards Yun Hao. But before they could pounce, they were kicked out by the Li family's guards. A guy like a local chicken and a dog, how can he be the opponent of the Li family's guards.
"Who are you? Dare to resist arrest! Do you think that my eldest grandson Rong's horizontal knife is unfavorable, and someone came to chop up this daring thief for me and feed it to the dog. Eldest Sun Rong pointed at Yun Hao and shouted angrily.
Today, when he went to visit Li Xiuning, he ate a closed door, and even threw back the gifts he sent in. I was not happy in my heart, who would have thought that as soon as I arrived at the door, some people said that the Li family would not last long. The eldest grandson's family rebelled with the Li family, and he was a pawn of the Li family. If the Li family falls, the life of the eldest grandson family will definitely not be easy. Hearing this, the already burning anger in Eldest Sun Rong's chest was even more like pouring a spoonful of oil.
"You don't need to know who I am, and you don't deserve to know. You just need to know that a person who can't even manage his family members is not worthy of being a city guard to govern these hundreds of thousands of Huoyi people. "The son of the eldest grandson Shunde, the eldest grandson Xiaozheng, was cut off by himself, and this eldest grandson who doesn't know how many zhang is far away, Yun Hao will not give face.
"Okay, let you be as strong as steel, and the city guard is also like a furnace. Today, the official wants to touch your untouchable character and take it! If there is resistance, kill on the spot. As soon as Changsun Rong gave the order, the guards beside him pounced. But it didn't take more than a cup of tea, and they were all knocked to the ground by the Li family's guards.
"Who the hell are you?" If Changsun Rong didn't care about this young man just now, now he is looking up and down. The guards around him are all good hands in the army. But in front of this young man's guard, he is simply a fish belly-like existence. Moreover, this young man knew that his city guards, and he had no intention of running away if he beat his own people. has a style of fearlessness to the extreme, which makes Changsun Rong a little uneasy.
"I am the enemy of your eldest grandson's family, and I think you should be older than your eldest grandson Xiaozheng. Then I'm your enemy who killed my brother, what? Don't you want to take revenge with your own hands? Yun Hao squinted his eyes and glanced at Changsun Rong, if it weren't for the people of the Changsun family, it was estimated that he wouldn't even be able to mix with a captain.
"You're Yun Hao......!" Yun Hao showed his name, and the eldest grandson Xiaozheng immediately looked at Yun Hao in horror. The body involuntarily retreated, for fear that this guy would even cut himself on a whim.
"Do you know you're scared? Don't worry, I won't cut off your head. Give the boy some money, that's what you should give. After Yun Hao finished speaking, he walked away with his hands behind his back.
The muscles on Changsun Rong's face twitched, and he really wanted to chop this hateful kid. But thinking of the eldest grandson Wuji's strict order, he could only hold back.
Yun Hao was a little wrong, although they were all surnamed Changsun. But the eldest grandson Rong is not the eldest grandson Shunde's family, but the eldest grandson Wuji's relatives. This time, he was able to get the position of Huoyi City Guard, and he also took the path of the eldest grandson Wuji and explained it to Li Er. Otherwise, the Li family has so many fierce soldiers. The position of this city guard really can't be his turn.
"Master......!" The steward looked displeased when he saw his master, but he didn't dare to really chase after him and kill the kid. Seeing that the old man was standing in the snow in a daze for a long time, he was helplessly born and asked.
"Give this kid a few bucks, grandma's! The face of the eldest grandson's family has been lost to you, and someone has come to pull in and hit twenty boards. Changsun Rong tapped the black shirt that had already frightened him with his finger, and immediately a guard rushed up. Pulled into the porter and pulled down his pants to reveal his white ass. The sound of the board hitting the meat sounded immediately.
The young man with his head broken took the copper coin, and tears welled up in his eyes. In the direction of Yun Hao's departure, he kowtowed two heads. The blood on his head was flowing down again.
"Why did you let go of that eldest grandson just now? That's not your character, is it? The old man followed Yun Hao, and he was very puzzled why Yun Hao didn't let go of Changsun Rong.
"Because I figured it out, Huo Yi was captured by the second son. In other words, nine times out of ten, his city guard was appointed by the second son. The person appointed by the second son should not be the eldest grandson Shunde, but the eldest grandson Wuji. Although they are all surnamed eldest grandsons, for us, one is a friend that can be won over. The other has become a mortal enemy. There are enough enemies, there is no need to provoke the wrong people anymore.
Back in Jinyang, we have to celebrate our birthday. If you offend a lot of people, you won't be able to live a peaceful life. As soon as Yun Hao said this, the old man was relieved.
Although the eldest grandson Wuji and the eldest grandson Shunde are both descendants of the eldest grandson family, there seems to be something dirty between the two families. After the death of Changsun Wuji's father, Changsun Sheng, the eldest grandson's family was not taken care of by the clansmen. The eldest grandson Wuji and his younger sister eldest grandson Wujian grew up in the family of their uncle Gao Shilian. If there is no dirt between the eldest grandson Wuji and the eldest grandson Shunde, the old fisher feels that he has lived to a dog at this age.
The two of them walked out for more than a mile, and there were guards running behind them. bowed down and reported to Yun Haoyu: "The villain understands that the eldest grandson Rong punished his family and gave the brother and sister two pieces of silver. Now the brother and sister have gone to buy food and medicinal herbs, and there is no one from the eldest grandson's family to follow. ”
"Look, this Changsun Rong is a clear brain. You will never get yourself in trouble for no reason. And I'm sure that what I'm saying today will reach the ears of the second son in just a few days. Even, to the ears of the lord. ”
Yun Hao was right, but two days later. The conversation between him and Changsun Rong appeared in front of Li Er's desk.
"The community is the boat, the people are the water, and the water can carry the boat and capsize the boat." Li Er looked at these two sentences and muttered softly.
