Seeing that the sky was darkening, Qi Xiangdi couldn't help asking, "Why are you and your younger siblings and children?" Why are you not at home.? ”

Hearing him ask, Man Tong said with a wry smile: "Some time ago, he had a problem with his business and asked me to find a way for him, but I didn't agree. Later, he asked me to sell the house to him to pay off the debt, but I didn't agree, so he sold the shop and returned to his hometown in a fit of anger and left us alone. ”

Qi Xiangdi frowned and said, "Why don't you teach him a good lesson?" ”

"What's the lesson? The child did not listen to me, and the more he taught, the more rebellious he became. Mantong said helplessly: "This kid is just high-spirited, and he obviously doesn't have the ability to do business and wants to make a lot of money." In fact, it is good to go back to your hometown, and you will not get into trouble if you go back to your hometown and live a down-to-earth life. ”

Qi Xiangdi said: "My family Yiqi also went back to his hometown to guard filial piety, but his filial piety is almost over, and he will be able to go out next year." ”

"Your Yiqi and Yihui have been well-behaved and obedient since they were children, unlike my son who has always been against me. My wife often said that we must have been enemies in our previous lives, otherwise why would we quarrel as soon as we met. ”

In fact, Mantong also regretted that he went to the capital not long after his son was born. At that time, because of the lack of money, he did not bring the mother and son into Beijing, and then he spent thirteen years in the capital, and his son was not close to him when he was not admitted to the Jinshi examination.

Qi Xiangdi said with a smile: "He himself is a father, and he will let him go when he returns to his hometown." Could it be that you are old, and he dares to ignore you. ”

Man Tong took a sip of wine and said, "I think so, but the child is always crying and crying and wants to go back to his hometown." Ahem, it's hard to put into words. ”

It is difficult for a clean official to judge family affairs, and this kind of thing is not good at judging who is right and who is wrong.

At this time, the door was knocked again, and Qi Xiangdi said with a smile: "It should be Jingene who is here, I'll open the door for him." ”

Man Tong hurriedly stopped him and said, "How can you let one of your guests open the door." You sit, I'll go and invite him in. ”

There was no moon this night, and it was dark outside, and the eyes were not very sharp. I didn't see Jing Ene's appearance clearly at the door, but when I entered the house, I was stunned when I saw him: "It's you?" ”

Qi Xiangdi originally wanted to make an introduction, but when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Have you seen it?" ”

Fu Jingene hummed and said, "I happened to be sitting at a table in the restaurant the day before yesterday, and I chatted with my husband for a while. ”

"What's your name, sir, it's called Shibo."

Man Tong thought about what he said at the time, and his face was a little embarrassed: "At that time, I had a casual chat with a friend drinking tea in a restaurant and listening to a commentary, but I didn't expect you to be the Qin Cha that everyone talked about. ”

In order to hide the embarrassment, Man Tong said: "Do you want to drink two glasses?" ”

Without waiting for Fu Jingene to speak, Qi Xiangdi said: "He can't drink now, let him accompany him as much as you want to drink after the matter is resolved." ”

After speaking, he looked at Jing Ene and said, "Don't drink during the case, otherwise it will be easy to make mistakes." ”

"It's uncle."

Seeing that he didn't drink, Mantong went to make a pot of tea.

Qi Xiangdi didn't drink either, he drank tea instead: "Jing Ene, tell us the news you have found in the past half a month, and we will discuss it together." ”

Fu Jingene didn't hide it, he told all the news he had heard during this time, and after he finished speaking, he said with a somewhat solemn face: "At all, the information I found shows that he is the mastermind behind the assassination of Lord Guan. This person is full of evil and the crimes he has committed are too numerous to mention, and this time I must arrest him and return him to the people of Anhui for a clear and clear world. ”

Mantong said: "Actually, I guess He Meng did this. Over the years, he has tried every means to force those officials to compromise and join him. Those who do not obey will be eliminated by the next means. ”

Qi Xiangdi didn't expect this person to be so bold: "Jing Ene, this person is very dangerous, you must be careful to prevent him from jumping off the wall in a hurry when you investigate." ”

Afraid that he would be young and vigorous and fight against He Mengming's sword and gun, Qi Xiangdi said again: "If necessary, you have to be false and wronged, and then bring him to justice after collecting all the evidence." ”

Man Tong couldn't help but look sideways when he heard this.

Fu Jingene smiled and said, "Uncle, I know. ”

Man Tong was silent and said: "Since He Meng took power, he has been domineering and arrogant, coercing the political envoys to obey him, and even starting a speech hall in the army. Leaving aside the political envoy for the time being, many people in the army have accumulated a stomach full of resentment, but they dare not resist because of his obscenity. ”

Fu Jingene asked, "Is there a candidate for Shibo?" If so, I'll find an opportunity to get in touch with it. ”

As the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance. He Meng is engaged in rhetoric and nepotism in the army, and the people below will definitely be dissatisfied.

Man Tong really knew one, and said: "He Meng has two henchmen, one is called Mao Dongfang and the other is called Di Haiming. A few years ago, Di Haiming fell in love with Yuan Yu and Yuan Baihu's sister in the army and wanted to marry her as a second room. Yuan Yu's sister was unwilling, who thought that Di Haiming begged He Meng, and then He Meng came forward to kiss Yuan Yu for him. ”

Fu Jingene really felt that he had seen a lot, the twisted melon was not sweet, and this He Meng didn't even know such a simple truth.

You must know that girls with a little backbone are unwilling to be concubines. He Meng also said that he was close to each other, which was clearly a feud. However, from this incident, it can be seen that Hemon is a very arrogant person, he only acts according to his own thoughts and thoughts, and does not care what others think.

Qi Xiangdi asked, "What happened later?" ”

Man Tong nodded and said, "That girl didn't want to be a concubine, so she ran to the nunnery to shave her hair and be a sister-in-law." Ordinary people can forget it here, but this Di Haiming threatened the master of the nunnery and said that if he dared to shave her, he would burn the nunnery. The girl was also strong, and immediately fell headlong to death on the pillar. ”

"That Yuan Yu didn't resist?"

Man Tong shook his head and said: "Yuan Yu not only did not resist, but also gave one of his distant cousins to Di Haiming as a concubine, and he was promoted to deputy Qianhu the year before last. ”

Many people secretly scolded Yuan Yu for being spineless, selling his sister for glory, and being a cold-blooded and ruthless wolf-hearted thing. But as far as I know, Yuan Yu has a good relationship with her sister, and when Di Haiming asked for marriage, he also refused. ”

Fu Jingene understood: "What Shibo means is that this Yuan Yu stammers to please Di Haiming on the face, but in fact hates him to the core. If he was given a chance, he would definitely avenge his sister. ”

Man Tong nodded and said, "Yes, I think he is just forbearance by doing this." Di Haiming's biggest backer is He Meng, and without He Meng's backer, it is not difficult for him to find Di Haiming for revenge. But these are all my speculations, and you have to check and judge for yourself. ”
