Chapter 256: Killing Chickens to Alarm Monkeys
Although Xue Youfu is only the housekeeper of Xue Huaiyi, the Duke of Hubei, he is a man of the hour in the legends of Yangzhou.
He was originally called Liang Youfu, his parents died when he was a child, and he and his brother Liang Yougui depended on each other. The brothers became more and more depressed, and finally sold their ancestral homes in order to fill their stomachs with food.
The ancestral house of the Liang family is only three thatched houses, and the land outside Yangzhou is not valuable. The money from the sale of the ancestral house only sustained the two brothers for two years.
In the end, there was no way, and the brothers had to worship a wicked beggar as a teacher in order to make a living, and learned the ability to steal chickens and dogs.
One day, Liang Youfu stole people's money, was caught, and chopped off half of his index finger, and his ability to steal was abolished.
In order not to drag down his brother Liang Yougui, Liang Youfu said goodbye one night without saying goodbye, asked for food all the way, and came to Luoyang City.
Maybe it was the blessing of the ancestors of the Liang family, or it was time for him to come and run, so that he met Xue Huaiyi, who had just embarked on the road to his career.
At that time, Xue Huaiyi was still a monk of the White Horse Temple, and he had just hooked up with Wu Zetian and was appointed as the host of the White Horse Temple in Luoyang, but he was just a potential stock. Although he was appointed as the presiding officer of the White Horse Temple, the White Horse Temple was dilapidated, and Xue Huaiyi was a bare-bones commander.
How can this be? So he hurriedly recruited monks.
But the problem is, Xue Huaiyi himself is a fake monk, how can a real monk be willing to wade into this muddy water?
In the end, Xue Huaiyi had no choice, so he looked around, and there were a few beggars on the side of the road, so he shaved them first.
Liang Youfu seized the most important opportunity in his life, hugged Xue Huaiyi's thigh, greeted him with small intentions, and changed his surname to Xue, he was very trusted by Xue Huaiyi, and was soon appointed as the supervisor of the White Horse Temple, and became Xue Huaiyi's private housekeeper.
Later, Xue Huaiyi was very much loved by Wu Zetian, and gradually soared to the top, and the official residence was second-class, known as "Xue Shi". Xue Youfu also followed the rising tide, and the officials met in person, and they had to call "Brother Xue".
Liang Yougui, who was in Yangzhou City, relied on his younger brother's power to extort and take over lawsuits, and he made some black money and bought the ancestral house back.
Not only that, but he also expanded vigorously and built a large mansion with seven entrances, which was carved with beams and paintings, and was extraordinarily gorgeous.
In the eyes of the world, the Liang brothers can be regarded as glorious ancestors.
However, in order to build this big mansion, I don't know how many families were forced by Liang Yougui to die.
……
……
Dangdang~~
The gong opened the way, the flag was erected, and Cui Geng came to the door of the Liang Mansion with a full guard of honor.
As soon as he made a look, Song Genhai took a few steps forward, slammed the door hard, and shouted, "Is there anyone panting?" Get out of here! ”
"Seeing his servant and knowing his master, hehe, Cui County is a good official!"
Suddenly, the middle door of Liang's mansion opened wide, and a group of people walked out.
The leader was two people, one was about thirty years old, slightly chubby, dark-skinned, wearing silk and satin, and his face was full of meat.
Another Cui Geng has seen it, it is Wang Dazhong, the son of Wang Hongyi, the "White ~ Rabbit Imperial History".
Yo, it's a coincidence?
Cui Geng didn't expect to meet this kid, he changed his mind a little, and then teased: "Half a month ago, at Quy Nhon Restaurant, Wang Gongzi said that he wanted to open up the way of Master Xue. The means of daring to love your father and son is the elder brother of Master Xue's housekeeper. Hey, this circle is a little bigger, huh? ”
"No, the reason why this son is here is because of ......"
"Ahem!" The middle-aged man with a meaty face hurriedly interrupted: "Prince Wang, please be cautious." ”
While speaking, the middle-aged man stepped forward, clasped his fists and arched his hands: "I am Liang Yougui, Cui County Ling put on such a big formation today, I don't know what to teach?" ”
"I don't dare to teach." Cui Geng smiled slightly and said, "It's that the government wants to expropriate this house, and the official wants to talk to you about the price." ”
"Negotiate the price? There's no need for that. I have already said that 500,000 yuan is not a single child. ”
"It's really not negotiable?"
"It's not negotiable." Liang Yougui raised his head slightly, his expression was extremely arrogant, and said: "Don't say it's you, even if it's Zhang Qian's own person, it's still this price." If you can afford to dismantle it, you will dismantle it, and if you can't dismantle it, you will leave quickly. ”
"Don't talk so dead...... Cui Shen's expression was slightly dark, "Liang is expensive, no matter how much money you have, you have to have a life to spend, right?" ”
"You threaten me?" Since beating his brother Xue Youfu and the Eguo rooster dog ascended to heaven and soared to Huang Tengda, Liang Yougui has not heard anyone dare to talk to him like this for a long time.
"Hehe, whatever you think," Cui Geng shrugged and said, "It's just a kind reminder, you have to take it as a threat, and the county doesn't matter!" ”
After that, Cui Geng made a look, and Song Genhai alertly handed over a deed and shouted: "The surname is Liang, sign this deed." My county order is willing to pay five times to buy your house, which is generous enough. ”
Five-run money?
Liang Yougui thought that he had heard it wrong, so he snatched the Chinese deed from Song Genhai's hand and looked at it fixedly...... It reads five pieces of money on it. Black and white, nothing more, nothing less.
, really... It's really a lot of money???
"Cui County Order, you're not kidding, are you?"
"Of course not." Cui Geng's old god said in the tunnel: "Now the official also gives you a word, your house is worth five yuan, and the official doesn't give much money." And ......"
Song Genhai, the fart spirit, took over the conversation and shouted loudly: "This deed, you have to sign it, and you have to sign it if you don't sign it!" ”
"And what if I resolutely refuse to sign it?"
"Then please go to the county office! These days, my county magistrate has turned over a lot of old files! Don't think that no one knows about the you did with the old sesame seeds and rotten grain! ”
Flute ~~
Speaking of this, as soon as Song Genhai stretched out his hand, he pulled out the iron chain around his waist: "The surname Liang, go to the yamen to fight a lawsuit, or sign this deed, you can choose one yourself." ”
As soon as the voice fell, Song Genhai waved his arm and beckoned, and the arresters who accompanied him rushed up as soon as possible, and there was a great tendency to detain Liang Yougui on the spot.
Liang Yougui was not only not intimidated when he saw this, but was a little funny, and said happily: "Cui County Order, don't you know the identity of the next?" If you move me, you will slap my younger brother Xue Youfu in the face, and you will slap Xue Huaiyi, the Duke of Hubei Kingdom, in the face! Can you afford a small Jiangdu county magistrate? ”
"Pull the flag and pull the tiger skin!" Without waiting for Cui Geng to answer, Song Genhai, the fart spirit, scolded again, and said, "Do you know the Duke of Eguo, do people know you?" When it comes to this roundabout relationship, what about my eldest brother's second aunt and third niece who are still working as slaves and maidservants in the palace? Did someone move me to have something to do with Your Majesty? How unreasonable! ”
This guy subconsciously glanced at Cui Geng, and after getting a meaningful look, he shook, shook the chain, and directly put it on Liang Yougui's neck, and shouted: "Seven life lawsuits, thirty-four injury cases, surnamed Liang, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out if you enter the yamen!" ”
"Wait! Wait, don't be impulsive! ”
Seeing the situation deteriorate, Wang Dazhong hurriedly jumped out.
He came with a mission today, but he couldn't let Liang Yougui be arrested, walked to Cui Geng, and persuaded: "Cui County Order, although Master Xue doesn't recognize Liang Yougui. But as soon as we introduced Lijingmen, didn't he know each other? Once today's events reach Master Xue's ears, I'm afraid you'll be in a lot of trouble."
"Oh? Is it? When Wang Gongzi said this, the county is really a little jealous! The corners of Cui Geng's mouth raised slightly, and said: "Since this is the case, this official will give Master Xue a face, and he will not take this Liang Yougui back to the yamen." However, capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped. He was a grass citizen, and when he saw the official just now, he actually stood up and did not kneel, obviously despising the county. Song catches the head! ”
"In!"
"Give me ten boards for him!"
"Yes!"
Obviously, Cui Geng had already made arrangements, and as soon as the words fell, Song Genhai and Feng Changqing set up Liang Yougui from left to right, and walked to the shade of a tree not far away.
Liang Yougui was not convinced, and shouted: "The surname is Cui, if you dare to beat me, you are simply eating a bear's heart and swallowing a leopard's gall." After I go back, I will send a letter to Youfu to disgrace your official position and dismiss you...... Ah, no, I want you to destroy your family! ”
"Oops, oops, oops, oops......"
"Let's fight! You fight! If you kind of say, you're going to beat me to death......"
Boom!
Feng Changqing was really too lazy to go through this scene, and when he went down on the third stick, he beat him to ten thousand peach blossoms.
The red is blood, the white is the brain, Liang Yougui was killed by a living rod!
On the spot, Wang Dazhong was scared.
He shouted, "Crazy! Cui Erlang, you're crazy! In broad daylight, everyone is watching, killing people on the street, do you really think that there is no king law in this Yangzhou territory? Your Majesty will not let you go. ”
"It's a pity that this Liang is unlucky!"
After Cui Geng sighed lightly, he smiled strangely, asked for a hand, and said, "You can go and sue, isn't your father the imperial history?" It's better to let him personally impeach the officer! But...... I just don't know how Li Xiang will feel when he sees this bullet stamp. ”
So what else can you think?
You must know that Li Zhaode has used the trick of accidentally killing people at the moment of the cane after paying homage to the prime minister this year.
The first time was to kill the cool official Hou Sizhi.
The second time, there was a person named Wang Qingzhi.
Wang Dazhong has been in Chang'an City for a long time, how could he not know about Li Zhaode's killing of Wang Qingzhi with a cane.
It was also not long ago that Wang Qingzhi was instructed by Wu Chengsi to lead hundreds of people to write a letter outside the palace, asking Wu Zetian to establish Wu Chengsi as the crown prince.
Wu Zetian didn't look down on Wu Chenghei, and he didn't want this nephew to be too faceless, so he instructed Li Zhaode to persuade Wang Qingzhi to make up the prince.
As a result, Li Zhaode pursued the principle of "try not to make noise if you can do it", and as soon as he saw Wang Qingzhi, he asked people to pull him down to play the board. Three times five divided by two, a moment of hand slipping, Wang Qingzhi ...... He's dead.
……
Wang Dazhong understands the meaning of Cui Geng's words, if his father Wang Hongyi is allowed to impeach Cui Geng on this charge, Li Zhaode will inevitably suspect that his father Wang Hongyi is insinuating, and when the time comes, with the heart and ruthlessness of Li Zhaode, an old dog, he will not find a chance to kill his father with a cane again?
Although Wang Dazhong is usually quite a straw bag, he can still carry the importance and reason clearly at the critical time, his face changed, and he said: "Even if my father doesn't impeach you to Your Majesty, there is still Master Xue!" Don't forget, Liang Yougui's brother is the housekeeper that Master Xue relies on! ”
Cui Geng stretched out his right hand, made another gesture of please, and said, "Prince Wang, please!" ”
"Okay, let's see!"
Wang Dazhong beckoned a few companions, turned over on his horse, and went straight to the Ruyi Building, the headquarters of Lijingmen, Jiangnan Province.
He truthfully reported this matter to his father Wang Hongyi, and Wang Hongyi was also so shocked that his eyebrows trembled, and he shouted: "Cui Erlang is so bold that he dares to kill Xue Youfu's brother alive?" Tsk, what else in the world he doesn't dare to do? ”
Subsequently, he thought about it, this Xue Huaiyi, the Duke of Hubei Province, has a good temperament, and he will repay him, as long as he tells him this matter with oil and vinegar, Cui Erlang can still have good fruits to eat? At that time, Cui Erlang's resignation will be light. If you can get rid of Cui Erlang, hehe, what he Meng Shenshuang didn't do, I, Wang Hongyi, did it, wouldn't it be a great achievement?
Immediately, he asked Wang Dazhong not to pester Lu Ruolan in Yangzhou, and hurriedly rode a fast horse and went straight to the White Horse Temple in Luoyang.
Looking at the background of his son's departure, Wang Hongyi smashed his mouth and looked at himself, "I don't care if I can use this to get rid of Cui Erlang, this time Xue Youfu must accept my son's love." At that time, you will not only be able to have a good relationship with Xue Youfu, but you can also say a few words to Master Xue, but you will not lose money. If you can get rid of Cui Erlang, hahahaha...... Beautiful, fast! ”
……
……
Wang Dazhong went fast and came back quickly.
Ten days later, he rushed back from the White Horse Temple in Luoyang with his companions.
As soon as he saw Wang Hongyi's face, Wang Dazhong cried and said, "Dad, you made a mistake this time. My son went to Luoyang, so he lost his life there! ”
"What's wrong?" Wang Hongyi knew his son's temperament too well, his face changed slightly, and he said, "Did you say something wrong and make Master Xue angry?" ”
Wang Dazhong was even more aggrieved when he heard this, and said: "No, what my son said was your original words, and he didn't change a word." ”
Then, he repeated the passage of Wang Hongyi's teachings in detail. It's really hard for him, the content of two or three hundred words framing Cui Geng is really word-for-word.
Wang Hongyi frowned slightly after hearing this, and said, "That's right, this is all for my father to teach you the truth." It shouldn't be...... And then what? Did you say something you shouldn't have said? ”
"Not really." Wang Dazhong pointed to his left cheek and said, "As soon as my son finished speaking, Master Xue's big mouth twitched. Look at it, it's still swollen. ”
"Then you didn't ask, why the hell did he hit you?"
"I asked, Master Xue said, it was our father and son who sincerely ridiculed him! He can't take care of us now, and when he frees his hand, he must let our old Wang family wipe out the family! ”
"Huh? This... What's going on? ”
Wang Hongyi's face turned pale, and he muttered: "Originally, Li Zhaode didn't like me, but now that he has offended Master Xue, isn't our father and son dead?" This is in order to please Master Xue to sue him, why did he sue a big disaster? Weird! ”
