Chapter 852 Hometown Wishes (II)

Xu Jie handed over the two housekeepers, originally intended to calm things down, who knew that Xu Cheng and Xu Yuan did have solid evidence for bullying the villagers, once it was verified, dozens of cases were triggered, robbing women, killing people and stealing goods, everything, and Xu Ying and Xu Ke were also involved in the case...... The two minions who didn't do anything explained that everything they did was at the behest of the two sons!

Seeing that Xu Gelao's son was involved, Wang Xijue was a little uncertain, and said to Hai Rui: "After all, Xu Gelao is the former prime minister, and it is just a matter of investigating and punishing his slaves, if his son is moved, it may cause an uproar in public opinion." ”

"The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people." Hai Rui said disapprerovantly: "Besides, because they are the sons of Xu Ge Lao, we should find out more clearly and return Xu Ge Lao to his innocence." ”

"Dugong, do you know what the consequences of this are?" Wang Xijue said in a low voice.

"It's nothing more than tearing your face," Hai Rui said coldly, and then issued a summons and ordered the official to send it to Xu Jie's mansion. After finishing all this, he glanced at Wang Xijue, who was full of melancholy, and then said lightly: "If Xu Ge still wants to be faced, I will naturally save him some face......

"Dugong must pay attention to proportion...... Wang Xijue's eyebrows are difficult to go.

Nanchan Temple Xu Jiefu.

Seeing Hai Rui's summons, Xu Gelao, who had been depressed for the past few days, his face became more and more gloomy, and he asked the eldest son who was standing beside him: "Are they going to arrest someone?" ”

"That's not ......," Xu Fan said softly, "Just inform us and let them pass the hall on time." He comforted his father softly and said, "It seems that the sea governor does not know how to measure at all. ”

"Measured?" Xu Jie smiled bitterly when he heard this: "He really understands proportion, one step at a time, step by step, step by step, to pull our family into the water." As he spoke, he closed his eyes slightly and said, "Find those two brutes, I want to ask for an understanding." ”

Xu Fan knew that 'beast' referred to his two younger brothers, and he couldn't help but feel a little weird in his heart, so wouldn't I also become a beast? So what are you old?

After a while, he took two 'brutes' with a worried look and returned.

"Meet Daddy. Calling the child out, what is the command? On the way here, Xu Ying and Xu Ke already knew the reason, so they behaved very well-behaved.

Xu Jie slowly opened his eyes and looked at the two sons who were actually a little strange...... Over the years, he has been an official outside, and he has been separated from these two sons a lot, especially when they grow up, they have hardly seen each other again, let alone taught by word and deed.

Back then, Xu Jie saw Yan Donglou behaving recklessly, and it was expected that he would finally bury the entire Yan family. In order to prevent his son from following the path of Yan Shifan, except for the eldest son next to him, he did not let the other three sons go out...... Even Xu Fan has been isolated from the circle of power by him, and later as soon as Xu Fan became a waiter, he was ordered to resign and return to his hometown. It is precisely because of this that Xu Jie feels deeply sorry for his sons, is in a kind of compensatory mentality, and ignores their actions in his hometown...... In Xu Gelao's opinion, no matter how fierce the sons are in the local area, they can't be compared with Yan Shifan's scourge. What's more, he has worked hard for the court all his life, and he can be regarded as setting things right and carrying on the past, can't he shelter his son?

But now it seems that I was wrong...... When he left the throne of power, he lost the initiative, although his influence was still huge, but Gao Gong, who was now in power, was eager to dismantle himself, and Hai Rui was the knife he stretched out to his neck.

It seems that they have made up their minds to open a breakthrough from their unsuccessful son, but it is ridiculous that they are still counting on peace of mind before, which is really old and confused. It can be seen that more than a year of leisure has made my level drop too much......

The sons were also looking at their father, looking at Xu Jie, who was tired and helpless, and gradually rejuvenated their fighting spirit, especially the old eyes that were dizzy in the past, but now they became shining, it seems that the great Ming minister who called for wind and rain is back! This made them feel at ease and more submissive.

"Someone sued the two of you, snatching people's property, arson and murder, and robbing people's daughters," Xu Jie broke the silence, looked at the two sons and said, "Is there really such a thing?" Don't lie to me. ”

The two sons whispered, "This, this...... Someone sued, but the case has been closed. ”

"Where did you end the case?" Xu Jie asked in a low voice.

"The case closed in Huating County."

"How did you settle the case?" Hai Rui asked.

The two originally planned to lie, but looking at their father's appearance, they suddenly understood that this was the only person in the world who could help themselves, so they knelt in front of Xu Jie, squeezed out tears and said: "It was us who helped the previous Hou County Commander, let us go out to study for a period of time, he only took a few slaves in the family to prison, and soon reported a violent illness and died, so he secretly let them go." In the end, the family lost some money, and the cost of burning and burial with the bitter master, so they learned about this lawsuit. ”

"Alas, what a son, it's ridiculous that I still laughed at Yan Song, but now it seems that it's just fifty steps and a hundred steps." Xu Jie's accusation was weak, and he didn't seem to be upright: "I want to come this time, the bitter master saw Hai Rui coming, and he had a heart of revenge again." I hate this Hai Rui's iron-faced selflessness, if he breaks it according to the law, you two will lose your lives......"

Hearing his father say this, the two sons were so frightened that they cried: "The child knows that he is wrong, and his father will help him......"

"I don't know until now, it's too late!" Xu Jie snorted coldly and ordered: "Come on, tie up these two rebels and send them to ......."

"Daddy, don't send them to the Yamen......" Xu Fan and the queen rushed to Xu Kun quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, crying: "That Hai Rui is a madman, his younger brothers fell into his hands, can he still have a job?" Xu Ying and Xu Ke were even more in tears, as if they were about to be escorted to the execution ground.

"Who said to send it to the Yamen?" Xu Jie's words stopped the crying and mourning of his sons: "Lock them up in the ancestral hall for reflection, and copy the family motto 500 times a day!" ”

Xu Ying and Xu Ke were immediately pardoned, of course...... It would be nice not to have the latter sentence.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the two younger brothers were escorted down, Xu Kun looked at his father worriedly and said, "Then how does Hai Rui explain there?" ”

"This guy is too unsympathetic, it's really a problem...... Xu Fan said depressedly: "My father saved his life back then, thinking that he was a sincere gentleman, and he knew how to repay his kindness, but I didn't expect him to be so wolf-hearted!" ”

"Don't be too pessimistic...... Xu Jie said slowly: "Don't think that Qing officials have no weaknesses, Qing officials are also greedy, but they are only greedy for fame." I am very grateful to Hai Rui, and if I ask him with an open face, he will not turn his face. I think that the lives of those two evil animals can be saved. Having said that, when he thought that he was getting old, he wanted to pull down his face and beg for someone, Xu Ge Lao was in a very bad mood, and his sons also felt sad and wanted to persuade him not to go, but he waved his hand and said, "Alas! I couldn't think about it too much, so I had to make mistakes and deal with it like this. Let's see how he reacts, and then make arrangements. ”

Since you have decided to go to Hai Rui to intercede, it is natural that there is no delay, if you go after the opening of the court, what is the point?

So early the next morning, after the meal, Xu Jie put on his own first-class clothes and went out in a sedan chair. But when I walked to Taiping Bridge, I thought it was inappropriate, and I said that with Hai Rui's stinky temper, it must be soft and not hard, so let's lower my posture and go to see him.

He ordered people to turn back, changed back into civilian clothes, and changed the sedan chair into a four-carried one, and went to the governor's office in a low-key manner.

Hearing that the old Shoufu was visiting in a sedan chair, Hai Rui hurriedly left what he was doing and walked to the door of the office to greet him.

Xu Jie got off the sedan chair at the door of the work, Hai Rui took two quick steps to greet him, and said with both hands: "Taishi, why are you here in person this early in the morning?" ”

Xu Jie felt a little more comfortable when he saw him as a junior, but he was not lazy, he returned the salute and replied with a smile: "Gangfeng has been in Songjiang for more than a month, but he hasn't gone to my place for a meal, so I had to invite myself." ”

Hai Rui remembered that when he visited Xu's mansion, he said 'I'll eat next time' in order to excuse himself, although he knew that Xu Jie's visit this time must have something else, but he, a square gentleman, still felt a little embarrassed, and said: "I have been busy with official business, and I also invite the old lady Haihan." ”

"Are you going to let me in?" Xu Jie said with a smile.

"Where is it......" Hai Rui hurriedly turned sideways, and when he walked inside, Xu Jie finally made his intentions clear: "Actually, I have something in my heart and want to talk to you." ”

"If you have something to do, you can call the students over." Hai Rui knew that Xu Jie's old qualifications were going to be put on the table, but the other party could really afford it.

Xu Jie shook his head and teased with some sourness: "I am no longer the first assistant, but now you are my governor, how can I rely on the old and sell the old and lose the rules of the court?" ”

While talking, the two of them had already walked into Hai Rui's outer signing room, and in the living room, Hai Rui gave up the main seat to Xu Jie, and sat on his right head. After taking a few sips of tea, Xu Jie wanted to say something about pleading, but when the words came to his lips, he found that it was too difficult to let himself and his former subordinates spit out the word 'begging', and he couldn't help but secretly regret it in his heart, why did you say that I easily left the court and lost my authority? Now you want to ask for this humiliation?

Seeing him spitting and flickering, Hai Rui still had to hurry up to open the hall, how could he have time to talk to him, so he took the initiative to solve the problem: "Didn't the old lady say that there was something to find me?" Just say it. ”

"There is indeed something, Gangfeng......" Xu Jie said with a ashamed face: "Alas! The matter has come to this point, what kind of face do I have to take care of, let me tell you directly, yesterday I received your summons, I called the two rebels to interrogate, but the two confessed, those things are indeed true, but they are not the mastermind, but there are evil slaves below who make claims, and beat people and rob the fields under their banner, which caused this disaster. As he spoke, he burst into tears and said: "But the master is responsible for the slave's murder, and in any case, the two of them will not be able to escape from this charge of lax discipline and cover-up afterwards." ”

"I see," Hai Rui sneered in his heart, and sure enough, he was worthy of being the old man Xu Ge, who was known as the 'Songjiang Shadowless Hand', and his kung fu of avoiding the heavy and light was really first-class, so he comforted softly: "If this is the case, I only need to ask the two sons to come over and make it clear, and the students will be treated lightly." ”

"Alas, I should have sent two evil animals to ask for ......guilt," Xu Jie said with shame on his face: "But my eighty-six-year-old mother, when she heard that she was going to send her two grandsons to the official, actually looked for death and life, and threatened to find a rope for me to look ugly as long as I took them out of the mansion." Saying that, he covered his face with his sleeves and sobbed: "I want to be cautious all my life, but I can't imagine that I am old and old, and my face has been ruined by the scourge of two rebels......"

"The old lady is serious," Xu Jie, after all, is the former prime minister, crying there, and pulling his superb old lady, even Hai Rui has a big headache, so he can only helplessly say: "The lower official is abrupt, and he frightened Mrs. Tai, I am really guilty." ”

"You're not wrong," Xu Jie wiped his tears and said embarrassedly: "Let Gangfeng see and laugh, it's my old mother who is confused, but the old man is stubborn, can't listen to persuasion, and does what he says, I can't help but follow her......" said in a voice like a mosquito fly: "I can only come to ask with a shy old face, as long as Gangfeng can raise his noble hand and let go of the two of them, he will definitely be strictly disciplined in the future, so as not to let them cause trouble again......" paused, and begged: "But I hope that Gangfeng can remember the old friendship and save my family's life, I will grit my teeth here and give up the property to pay a heavy fine, Listen to everything! ”

"Master," Hai Rui said with his eyebrows locked: "You make me embarrassed, if I let go of the two sons today, what kind of face will I have to ask the case again and judge fairly?" ”

"Lord Hai, she is old and old, she is sick, if she has three longs and two shorts, I can't live as a son, then my two rebels can't be a human being in the world." Xu Jie said and said to him deeply: "I remember the mercy of Lord Hai, and I will never forget my gratitude and virtue." ”

When it came to this, even the iron man had to be moved, Hai Rui said helplessly: "Master Xu, you know the mother and son who love you, but you know where the victim's mother is?" Where are the children? And there is not only one family, but also many orphans and widows, who have no parents and no children? Saying that, he sighed: "Could it be that 'no matter how high or low the person is to break the law, the prince is average', is just an empty word?" ”

"Hai-sama is right. It's just that Lord Hai was imprisoned in the prison back then, and the old man was also in front of the emperor, politely relieved, and had this friendship, and begged Lord Hai to think about it. Xu Jie saw that Hai Rui was a little shaken, and took out his killer weapon. It means that when you disobeyed the emperor and scolded the monarch's father, it was a serious crime to punish the nine clans, and it wasn't for me to settle it, so you can have today!

"The difference between the Taishi's words," he didn't say this, but when he said this, Hai Rui said with a straight face: "When Hai Rui angered the emperor, it was indeed rescued by the Taishi." But the lower officials are straightforward, loyal to the monarch and patriotic, how can they ever commit crimes? The two sons instructed their subordinates to fight for their lives first, and bribed the county officials to escape the king's law, the two things are obviously different, how can they be compared? ! ”

"Lord Hai teaches you ......" Xu Jie smiled miserably, stood up slowly with the foot of the table and said: "I can't raise my godfather's fault, the old man has been a eunuch outside for many years, and he neglected to discipline the rebel son, so he has today's result." If you want to say that the sins are all my sins, let me, as a father, take them together! After speaking, his knees weakened and he knelt down for Hai Rui......
