Chapter 140: Shen Tuo is awesome
As soon as he heard Feng Pu inquire about Wu Liangju, the corners of Shen Tuo's mouth twitched slightly, and he said astringently: "Good news and bad news!" β
"The good news?"
"The Japanese invaders retreated quickly, and there was no loss in Quanzhou City."
"Where's the bad news?"
Shen Tuo swallowed his saliva, and said in a tone as gentle as possible: "Old Thorn Shi, you have to calm down, Wu Liangju he... He... He's dead! β
Gur~~
Comrade Feng fainted cleanly!
Wang Liang saw the opportunity quickly, and hurriedly supported him, and everyone took materials on the spot and laid a soft bed for him.
Cui Geng's performance was better than Feng Pu's, although he was scared out of a cold sweat, he still had a fluke and asked, "Why did Wu Liangju die?" Shen joins the army, are you sure you can see it clearly? Can't you salvage it again? β
Shen Tuo smiled bitterly: "Wu Liangju was cut into a bunch of meat sauce by the Japanese bandits, and he can be used as flat food." Cui Changshi is well-informed and knows which doctor has this means of reaching the sky? β
"Uh...... Since he can't distinguish his true face, will someone die for Wu Liangju? Cui Geng questioned again.
Seeing Shen Tuo looking at himself like an idiot, Cui Geng himself was also deflated, shook his head and gave himself an explanation, and said to himself: "Alas, when I didn't say it." As far as Wu Liangju's virtue is concerned, who is willing to die for him? And in broad daylight, the people are not blind. Hey...... Wrong? β
Cui Geng suddenly discovered that Shen Tuo's state today was very wrong.
Being good at finding clues and details in the ordinary has always been Cui Geng's strength.
In his impression, Shen Tuo has always been a sticky guy, and he has always been respectful and cautious to his boss; But he doesn't pretend to be a wolf with a big tail.
Why did he change sex today? first sold a small pass with Feng Pu, and now talking to himself is completely in the tone of an equal relationship?
Cui Geng said tentatively: "Shen Shenjun seems to be in a good mood today, Wu Liangju was suddenly killed, and the entire Quanzhou officialdom is bound to have a big earthquake, isn't there any way for Lord Shen to be alone?" β
"Alone?" Shen Tuo smiled bitterly again, but did not answer Cui Geng's temptation directly.
Instead, he changed the topic and asked: "Does Cui Changshi know where the former Quanzhou Changshi Song Lian Song has gone?" β
Ge Laozi, where do I know where to go?
Cui Geng rolled his eyes secretly, when he first arrived in Quanzhou City two months ago, Song Lian disappeared, and the military order to change the defense was still passed down by Shen Tuo.
Suddenly, he remembered that he had asked Guo Ke this question that day, and Guo Ke seemed to say something ambiguously at that time.
Immediately, he followed Guo Ke's words and said, "But it has something to do with Lord Song's master? β
"Huh? Cui Changshi's news is quite well-informed. β
Shen Tuo glanced at Cui Geng in surprise and continued: "Song Changshi's master is none other than Pei Wang, the squire of Lintai Pavilion, who was beheaded because he opposed His Majesty's accession to the throne. Although Lord Song did not write to oppose His Majesty's accession to the throne, he was also implicated in the matter of his teacher Pei Wang, and he was dismissed from office. Do you think Song Changshi has suffered an unwarranted disaster? β
I see!
Cui Geng asked again: "Song Changshi's matter is also related to Shen's joining the army?" β
"The relationship is also there, because Song Changshi was dismissed, so Shen picked up a bargain!"
Shen Tuo nodded slightly, and said, "It is said that it will not be long before the official document will come down from the ministry, and this official will take over the post of governor of Quanzhou." However, what the official wants to say is not this, but what he wants to say...... In this life, just now there are still flowers, maybe in the blink of an eye, there is no unwarranted disaster, everything is better to be safe with the situation, and it is useless to be anxious. β
Well?
Cui Geng was stunned for a moment, this is something in the words, didn't it mean that Wu Liangju died suddenly, and Shen Tuo also saw it, ready to break the jar and break it?
Shen Tuo saw that Cui Gengyi was speechless, and said, "What? Cui Changshi seems to be unimpressed by the official's words! This official's opinion of Wu Liangju is the same as yours. Even if this person was killed or wounded a thousand times or ten thousand times, he was not wronged. But it shouldn't be, it shouldn't have been killed at this juncture! Flowers are like flowers, and if you are not careful, it will become a cloud of the past! The world is impermanent, let's see some of it! β
As soon as Shen Tuo's chatterbox was opened, it was like chattering, and Cui Geng's face was strange when he heard this repeated emotion, and he was a little suspicious that the person in front of him was the one who didn't like to talk and joined the army Shen Tuo.
However, he also understood that Shen Tuo was lamenting his ill-fated fate, and he was about to be promoted to take over the post of governor Shi, but he was implicated by Wu Liangju's death. Now let alone promotion, it is unknown whether he can keep the current ministry of recording and joining the army.
Seeing that Shen Tuo was young, but not as anxious and impatient as Feng Pu's old man, Cui Geng couldn't help but look at it twice, and said approvingly: "Lord Shen's state of mind is beyond things, and he is quite a bit of Mount Tai collapsed without being shocked!" β
"What kind of bullshit is beyond things, Shen is also an ordinary man, and he also has a heart of gain and loss. It's just helplessness to look away! If you can't see Cui Changshi, it's because you're too young and have too little experience! Shen Tuo snorted angrily.
Saying that you are fat and you are really gasping, Cui Geng pursed his lips and said, "Shen is not much older than Xia Guan, right?" β
Anyway, everyone is going to be implicated, and Cui Geng is not used to his stinky problems, and if he has something to say, he will say it directly.
Shen Tuo didn't care about Cui Geng's tone, but his eyes suddenly lit up, and he said proudly: "You and I are the same age, this official is a few years older than you, but this official's experience is much richer than Cui Changshi......"
Well, I don't know if it's because of the implication of Wu Liangju's death together, or because of the same illness, Shen Tuo, who was already silent, opened the conversation box again, and on this occasion and in his state of mind, he actually talked about his past experience.
It turned out that Shen Tuo was a native of Chaozhou, and he was not a good bird when he was a teenager, and he made a group of fox friends and dog friends, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling.
But suddenly a catastrophe fell from the sky, and his father was a general of Chen Zheng's department, and he died in the rebellion of Ping Miao Zicheng and Lei Wanxing.
Although there is a pension in the imperial court, firstly, there is no father's care in the official face, and secondly, he spends money like flowing water, and the family road quickly falls.
Three years later, Shen Tuo had no last meal, and could only live in the broken temple.
Shen Tuo was so disheartened that he even had the heart to hang himself. But there is no endless road, and at this time, Chen Zheng's son Chen Yuanguang found him.
At that time, Chen Zheng was dead, and his place was taken over by Chen Yuanguang.
Remembering the previous friendship between the two families, Chen Yuanguang gave Shen Tuo a sum of money and persuaded him to reform and revitalize the family business.
Since then, Shen Tuo has really turned back.
He studied literature during the day, practiced martial arts at night, practiced penance for three years, participated in the martial arts of the imperial court, was named on the gold list, and obtained an official position.
In less than five years, Shen Tuo joined the army as the secretary of Quanzhou Prefecture, and married the second lady of the Lin family.
This is not over, pie fell from the sky, Song Lian was dismissed by Wu Zetian, Shen Tuo was vacant in front of him because Jane was in the emperor's heart, and he was about to be promoted two levels in a row to become the long history of Quanzhou with six products, which can be called a bright future.
But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, he would lose his official position and be dismissed because of the Wu Liangju case, and he would not even be able to keep his head.
Isn't this called creation, what is it called?
Cui Geng listened to Shen Tuo's words, but he didn't feel that creation was making people, but instead made a four-word comment on Shen Tuo - it's really awesome!
Because he heard a person's name - Chen Yuanguang!
After hearing this, he felt that Shen Tuo still underestimated himself, and his future was more than just that.
Chen Yuanguang: Who is that? Tang Dynasty famous generals! In his own absurd dream, this person was even called the "Holy King of Kaizhang" by the people of Fujian in later generations.
Today's Zhangzhou is the Han people occupy the plains, the wingmen occupy the mountains, the two sides have conflicts from time to time, Chen Yuanguang for the Zhangzhou assassin history, often have to fight with the wingmen.
Shen Tuo hugged this big thick leg and went to mix up some military exploits, isn't that just fun?
Chen Yuanguang didn't rise because there was no one above, but Shen Tuo, as a martial artist personally supported by the Empress Wu, can be said to be a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, and the channel for rising is absolutely leveraged.
As long as you find some military merits from Chen Yuanguang as a foundation, it is not impossible to get out of the general. The lowest is the lowest, and you can also mix a five-grade official.
Don't look down on Wupin, this is the difference between high-ranking officials and low-level officials in the imperial court. As long as the official residence is of the fifth grade, he is eligible to let his children enter the government with the shadow of the door, and his wife and mother can obtain the title of the imperial court.
This is the legendary "Shadow of the Wife".
If a person lives to this point in this life, he is worthy of his ancestors and his descendants, and he is considered complete.
But......
Before Wu Liangju died, maybe all this was impossible.
But now that Wu Liangju is dead, indeed, as Shen Tuo said, it has really become a thing of the past!
After Cui Geng learned about Shen Tuo's past experience, he suddenly felt that he couldn't stand Shen Tuo.
Although Wu Liangju's death was very much due to the factors of his own death, it would not be appropriate to say that it had nothing to do with him at all.
Shen Tuo, since he met the other party, is actually quite good. Especially if it wasn't for his unexpected move, he wouldn't have become the lieutenant of Qingyuan County.
In addition, this person's martial arts fame was hand-picked by the Empress Wu, and now the Empress Wu has become the Son of Heaven of the Great Zhou, and Shen Tuo can be regarded as a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven. Now I know that he has such a relationship with Chen Yuanguang, the Holy King of Kaizhang, who was honored in later generations.
Why don't you give him a favor?
After Cui Geng secretly pondered, he said: "Shen joins the army, in fact, don't be too pessimistic. Xia Guan thinks that this matter is not without a turnaround. β
"Turnaround? What else could there be for this to turn around? Shen Tuo shook his head dejectedly and said: "As soon as the cool officials arrived, more than a thousand were implicated, and the security of Quanzhou City was managed by this official, who could run me?" Wu Liangju's death, this official is to blame! β
"Not necessarily!"
Cui Geng pursed his lips and smiled, stretched out his hand and pointed not far away, and said, "What do you think is that?" Beast Kirin! Just offer it, what sin can be on you? β
Kirin?
Shen Tuo did see the giraffe at first, but he didn't think about it. But now if you think about it carefully, there are horns on your head, tattoos on your body, all four hooves, and the body of an oxtail deer, isn't it the unicorn recorded in ancient books?
Offering auspiciousness and forgiveness of its sins, this matter is really feasible when it comes to the Son of Heaven!
In an instant, Shen Tuo turned from worry to joy, overjoyed, patted Cui Geng's shoulder, and said warmly: "What did the official say just now?" It's better to let things go with the flow, isn't this going to turn around soon? Cui Changshi, Shen owes you a great favor! Belch... But..."
Suddenly, his face turned pale again, looked at Cui Geng in embarrassment, and said, "But this... Not quite right, right? Cui Changshi gave this Rui beast to this official, what should you do? Wu Liangju's death, you have been blamed, you are not much younger than this official! β
Cui Geng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Shen doesn't need to care about me when he joins the army, he has his own way to get out and get rid of crimes." β
His method is naturally to offer a porcelain statue of a "green ox to Buddha".
However, this trick may be able to be done by the imperial court to avoid the crime of implication, but whether Wu Liangju's father, the new Lingnan Provincial appeasement envoy Wu Sanzhong, can pass the test, Cui Geng is really not sure.
You must know that the three major tragedies in life are the loss of a young age, the loss of a wife in middle age, and the loss of a child in old age. Others don't know the inside story of Wu Liangju's death, can Wu Sanzhong not know? The order to mobilize Guo Ke was given by him personally.
If this guy is bent on avenging the murder of his son, even if the merits of Xian Xiangrui are offset, can he let himself go?
That's it, let's beat a level!
Shen Tuo saw that Cui Geng's words were insincere, but he misunderstood the stubble, and was instantly moved, and said excitedly: "Don't say anything, this official understands everything." Cui Changshi's kindness is unforgettable. From now on, you and I will be brothers in life! Cui Changshi rest assured, your family members and subordinates, even if you fight for your life, you have to save it! β
Sweat!
Cui Geng was uncomfortable for a while, how could he listen to this, as if his buddy was inevitably dying?
How can Lao Tzu be so noble, if there is only one giraffe, I can cheapen you?
Cui Geng couldn't laugh or cry.
He was just about to explain a few words, but he heard an old and very unhappy voice sound: "You both have a rut, what can the old man do?" β
It was the old thorn Shi Feng Pu.
The old man had already woken up for a while after he fainted, and he deliberately didn't make a sound, so he took the opportunity to listen to what he said behind his back for a while.
At this time, Cui Geng and Shen Tuo were dumbfounded.
Of course, Cui Geng refused to let go of the only surviving porcelain statue, it was a matter of life and death, and Shen Tuo couldn't let go of the giraffe!
Feng Pu understood that Cui Geng's method of saving himself was very unreliable, so he looked at Shen Tuo pitifully and said, "Otherwise, this unicorn will be sacrificed by the two of us?" β
It is said that Feng Pu is enough to make such a request as an official. However, is it enough to share the credit between two people?
Shen Tuo couldn't help but hesitate.
Feng Pu was anxious when he saw this, and said loudly: "Shen joins the army, you touch your conscience and say, how does the old man treat you on weekdays?" You can't bear to see the old man so old, and he is still being escorted to Chang'an, go to the door for a while? β
In the Tang Dynasty, the places of execution in Chang'an were mostly cities and dynasties.
The city is also busy! Most of them are places where ordinary death row prisoners are executed.
Pilgrims, pilgrims! Refers specifically to the outside of the gate of the court. Most of them are the places where officials above the fifth rank and the Tang Dynasty nobles were executed. With the head of an unscrupulous official, to deter the ministers!
"Okay." Shen Tuo sighed and said helplessly: "This unicorn is even if the lower official and Feng Tingshi offered it together." β
Feng Pu suddenly smiled, gave a thumbs up, and said, "Okay!" This official is not wrong! Shen joined the army is true...... Yes! β
Puff~~
As soon as he said this, in front of everyone's eyes, suddenly, the Rui Beast Qilin fell to the ground!
Feng Pu's personal guard Wang Liang ran forward, probed the giraffe's snort, and replied with a sad face: "Master Shi, the big thing is not good, the unicorn it... It... Dead too! β
