Chapter Eighty-Seven: One Lives (Part II)
Late at night, the hazy rain fell down, and the owner of Chengdu Fucheng, Wei Dongcun, who had reached the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, could see that he was burly and had a large skeleton, but now, he was very thin
Coming in from the outside and entering the door of the study, the little maid next to him helped him go to the official uniform, changed into a spacious homely clothes, and waited for him to wash his face before carefully retreating
Wei Dongcun stretched his waist, sat down on the chair, picked up the book casually and held it in his hand, his brows furrowed unconsciously—the familiar soreness of his body surfaced again
At such times, he felt that he was already old
Counting this year, he is fifty-four
was a handsome young man, but now he has become a person who is about to grow in his twilight years
Over the years, he has fought all the way, from the second son of the lineage who was not valued by the family, to the only heir after the death of his two elder brothers
Now it has tens of thousands of soldiers, responding to every call and holding the power of millions of lives and deaths...... However, as the years passed, the faint pain in his body made him feel more and more that his life was approaching
"Master" Wei Cundong raised his head, smiled and took the teacup held by the thirteenth concubine who had just entered the door for half a year, took a sip, and said, "Your craftsmanship has improved, where did you learn this skill?"
Mrs. Auntie smiled when she heard this, and kept silent, just a little smile in her eyes, but it aroused Wei Cundong's curiosity: "You goblin, you are still selling with the master, look at how I clean you up, the master."
Although he is getting older, Wei Cundong is becoming more and more dissatisfied
If Wang Hongyi is here, he will definitely understand his mind - it is time for old age and rebellion
Towards the end of their lives, all those who are in high positions and powers, and those who are wise, will have a great fear, which arises from the smell of death
The greater the power, the deeper the fear, and the envy and hatred of young people
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty killed the crown prince, Li Shimin killed the prince and the prince, and Kangxi abolished the prince and imprisoned the sons in the last ten years, all of which were the embodiment of this great fear, and they were forced by death to turn their anger on their young sons
In their subconscious, it was the son who took their lives and wanted to seize his power
Wei Cundong has not killed his son like this, but in the past few years, the concubines who have entered the door are younger than the other, and this thirteenth beautiful lady is even a few years younger than his second son, but he loves her simplicity and youth the most
This seems to prove that he is not old
At this time, when my aunt was about to say something, she saw the voice of the housekeeper outside the study: "Master, someone from the prison said that there was something urgent to report to you, and it seems that something happened to the head of the Song family......
When Wei Cundong heard this, he couldn't care about anything else, stood up, and left in a hurry
Looking at his master's hurried appearance, his aunt and wife were still a little unaccustomed
On weekdays, even if there is something, the master will appease himself first, and the special pet of this period of time has made her almost forget her identity, and she is just a plaything in the end
She smiled to herself, but thinking about Wei Cundongyuan's wife, her life was not as good as her own, and her heart was balanced
This thirteenth aunt is the daughter of an ordinary businessman in Chengdu Fucheng, if there were no exceptions, she would have married an ordinary man to make a main house and live this life
It's just that I don't know when Wei Cundong suddenly saw her at the temple fair one day, and he actually sent someone to propose marriage
There is a huge age difference between the two, and they are concubines, which girl's family would be willing?
But her parents and brother were very happy, and three days later, a small sedan chair carried her into the Dashuai's mansion
Among them, there is naturally a noble arrangement, she does not dare to resist, even if she does not reach this marshal's mansion, she is afraid that she will be sent to other places
She is still well-dressed here, so I don't know how much time I can enjoy
The rain outside was still dripping, and the aunt smiled a little, and then went out to order the people to set the meal, and saw from a distance that the two maids who had been bought were muttering quietly, chuckling from time to time
On her soft countenance, a smile appeared again
"Mother Zhang, look over there, those two people still don't understand the rules of this house, you go over and teach them" she chuckled, turned her face, and said to a woman with a kind face next to her
"Yes, madam," the woman respectfully replied, and walked over to the two of them, and when she saw Mama Zhang talking to them, she took them away, and Madame Auntie once again focused her attention on the flower scene not far away
In a few moments there was a scream, and when they came out again, the maid who had had her face cut trembling was brought to her
"Remember, this lesson, if you are so unwell-behaved, it won't just scratch your handsome little face" smiled at them gently, and the aunt saw the two of them tremble greatly as she wished
"Retreat" stared for a while, and Fang lightly opened his thin lips
The two maids hurriedly retreated cautiously
"Mom Zhang, I'm a little tired, help me over there" Pointing to the gazebo on the high place next to him, Mrs. Aunt said casually
"Yes, madam" Mama Zhang's lowered eyes flashed a glimmer of light, and she walked respectfully over, helped her, and walked there
Until she was sure that there were no outsiders nearby, Mama Zhang, who had always been respectful to her, said in a low voice: "You are messing around again, if you let Wei Dashuai notice your appearance, your fall from grace is small, and if you delay the affairs of the manager, your ten lives are not enough to die."
"Hehe, you are too careful, Mother Zhang, don't forget, now that I am the master and you are the servant, what should I do, it is not your turn to teach a lesson?"
"Hmph, don't care about you in general, let me ask you, what useful news can you hear recently? They are very dissatisfied with the news you have sent recently, if this continues, you and I will inevitably not become outcasts."
"Look at what you said, how dare I not do it well? It's just that during this time, the old thing has come to my room a lot less, and they are all busy with things, and most of the time they are resting in the study, and I really don't have much chance to get his news."
Very dissatisfied with her neglectful behavior, Zhang's mother stepped forward and said coldly: "Don't think that you are really a master now, you can ignore the order of the governor, if the governor did not send someone to teach you before, how could you have today's wealth?"
A hand pinched Mrs. Aunt's wrist, and Zhang's mother whispered more and more: "Tell you, the manager wants to take your life, there is a way, you better not be stupid, do things for the manager, don't think that the manager is sent to Chengdu Mansion, only you and me, if you annoy the manager, it is thousands of miles away, he wants to pinch you to death, just like pinching a bed bug to death, you don't want to live, don't bother me"
After speaking, Zhang's mother left slowly, sitting alone in the pavilion, and his aunt watched her leave, and slowly sad laughter overflowed along her fingers
In the side hall, Wei Cundong's mood was already low to the bottom when he saw this "Song Han".
"Who are you?" Sitting on the big chair, Wei Cundong asked lightly, although he only asked calmly, this kind of killing intent made the prisoner on the opposite side pounce, knelt on the ground, and wept bitterly
"Dashuai, it's not that the villain wants to do this, the villain was knocked unconscious and thrown here, the villain really doesn't know what's going on, ask the handsome to be gracious"
"Chop" didn't want to take another look, Wei Cundong drank
Suddenly, two pro-soldiers stepped forward like wolves, grabbed and pulled down, this man struggled desperately, crying, begging for mercy
When it was pulled outside, there was a soft sound of "poof", which was very familiar to Wei Cundong, and it was nothing more than the sound of cutting off his head
He turned a blind eye to it, listened to it, and continued to ask a half-kneeling middle-aged man: "Has the situation been investigated clearly?"
This middle-aged man also has whip marks on his body, which was smoked by Wei Cundong just now, and his hand was very heavy, and the blood from the wound was pouring out, but the middle-aged man was unmoved, as if it was not on himself
The middle-aged man was half-kneeling, without raising his head, and responded: "It has been investigated clearly, it is the deputy director of the prison, Cao Jie, who transferred the bag in the middle of the night with his authority, and directly led the person out of the prison, and when he found out, he had already gone out for half an hour, and I immediately searched his residence, but the person went to the empty house, and this person even the family members of the two prison shifts have disappeared."
"This kind of prison soldier is really damned" Wei Cundong's face was gloomy at this time, and he forcibly suppressed his anger, revealing this sentence from between his teeth
At this time, someone handed over the cup, he held it, slowly sipping the tea, from his somewhat trembling hands, it can be seen that he is already angry in his heart at this time
It's just that it's just being pressed
After a while, he sent a general to return, knelt in front of him, and said cautiously: "Dashuai, we have searched the surroundings, but we have not found any traces."
"Who's behind it, do you know?"
"Dashuai, we really didn't check it at this time"
"Bang" The anger was finally uncontrollable, and he threw the cup casually, Wei Cundong had already stood up, and his eyes were already red
"Very good, under my hands, there are still people who dare to betray blatantly, and these dark hands in the dark, hehe, it's amazing"
With that, Wei Cundong conveyed a series of orders
"Give me the order to block the traffic along the road, and I don't believe how far they can run out at this time"
"Chengdu Prefecture has completely banned and blockaded, and made every effort to search for me"
"Pass my order, immediately search for the people involved in the case, and if there is any suspicion, immediately detain and stand trial, if you disobey, you will be killed"
"The rest of the Song family's family members will be immediately put to death and executed in public three days later" Speaking of this, Wei Cundong asked lightly: "Are these people still there?"
Everyone knows that the big marshal at this time is the most dangerous, and the two generals behind are all awe-inspiring, and they are busy replying: "The big handsome, I have ordered people to check them one by one, these people are still there, and there is no one who has been dropped."
"Hmph" anger filled his chest, and Wei Cundong looked into the distance
"What a Wang Hongyi, even the old man has been running in Chengdu for decades, there are such people, how can I keep you?"
