Chapter 31: The Heir (I)

“...... At that time, he was the commander of Jishui County, and he had judged a strange case, and the murderer was difficult to find, so he threw his wife into prison, and after three days, he ordered someone to follow him secretly, saying: He will not go for ten miles, and when there is a man waiting for him to talk, he will be bound. As a result, the women and silver women were captured together. People asked the reason, and said: Communicate with this wife, kill her husband together, smell the wife, want to talk, worry about the county, so wait for each other from afar. As a result, a county passed on its knowledge. -- "Shu Qi Talks and Solves Cases"

After Wang Shoutian got the benefits of publicity, he had already ordered Lai Tongyu to find a group of storytellers to go to the countryside and cities to tell people.

Storytelling, in order not to show traces, but it is a normal storytelling, and when I have spare time, I tell some stories about Wang Shoutian to tout Wang Shoutian - this is called raising hope!

When it was said, those who were fortunate enough to witness the trial of this case were Song Ziye and Wang Yan.

Seeing that the young woman was brought back to the court, they were very strange, and they didn't know what kind of reputation this Wang Shoutian was doing.

After binding the pair of men and women to court, Wang Shoutian only deduced himself one by one, and the two of them collapsed to the ground and recruited.

The people were in an uproar, and they looked at the people in the hall as if they were gods.

Just looking at the reactions of this pair of men and women, you can know that what Wang Shoutian said is true, how can ordinary people do this like seeing it with their own eyes?

This thing seems to be easy, but it is not possible for ordinary people to grasp it and grasp it.

At this point, Song Ziye is extremely satisfied with the person in front of him, he can govern a county in an orderly manner, and he has such a talent for judging cases, if he can't be regarded as a hero among people, I'm afraid that he will be ashamed to kill the children of a big clan in Shudi.

"Song Gongzi, the case has been tried over there, so you and I will go over. Wang Yan had long since lost his previous worries, and was already smiling at this time.

Having children and nephews like this is really a blessing for the royal family!

The ancient clan concept was very strong, one glory was all honored, and one loss was lost, Wang Yan was really happy.

Song Ziye nodded, and a few people walked towards the mansion.

One person had already stepped over first and sent a message to Wang Shoutian, and when the two approached, Wang Shoutian had already tidied up his clothes and greeted him.

He and Wang Yan knew each other, after all, they had met a few times, so he worshiped this clan uncle first.

"Tian'er, please get up. Wang Yan accepted his salute calmly, and then helped him up and introduced Song Ziye to him on the side.

"I've seen Song Gongzi. ”

"I've seen Lord Wang. ”

The two of them each have a courtesy, because Wang Shoutian is an official, and Song Ziye is just a citizen in the end, so in terms of etiquette, Song Ziye is more solemn.

However, even so, everyone's demeanor is still obvious, and it looks good.

"It's finally here!" Wang Shoutian thought in his heart, he didn't have a deep relationship with this person in his previous life, but as soon as he saw him, he remembered Song Xinyou, his wife in his previous life.

After Wang Shoutian's defeat, Song Xinyou fell ill and died, which made his heart ache.

Because he knew that Song Xinyou deliberately drenched himself in the rain in winter, and refused to take medicine, and eventually died.

This is to save the Song family from disaster!

And as a man's husband, he watched his wife lying in bed with nothing but helplessness, which was so heartbreaking.

In a trance, I heard a voice.

"Tian'er, Song Gongzi is here with me, and I want to discuss something with you, but seeing that it is not early today, it is better to talk about it tomorrow if there is something. ”

Hearing Wang Yan say this, Wang Shoutian complied, and ordered people to clean up a few courtyards in the palace for the group to rest.

In the middle of the night, when no one was around, Wang Shoutian was called to the room by his uncle.

"Tian'er, do you know why Song Gongzi came here this time?"

"The little nephew doesn't know. Wang Shoutian said, although he knew it in his heart, but this kind of thing was not something to talk about, so he had to say that he didn't know.

Wang Yan smiled, stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It's a happy event, the festival makes the adults value you very much, so a marriage is specific for you, and the person who is determined is the eldest daughter of the Song family." ”

Immediately, he added: "The Song family is a big clan in Shudi, and the children of the clan are well-informed and have the style of a big clan, and your brother has also seen it today, and if you have a brother like this, how can her sister be bad? Although I didn't know that I would meet you before, it's not too late to ask you at this time, and I'll ask you, are you willing to get married?"

Wang Shoutian knew that there would be a future, how could he make his own decisions about his own marriage?

Besides, the Song family actually has a lot of potential, but unfortunately there are too few things that they can master in their previous life, and even if they have strong reinforcements, they can't play it.

The figure of his wife flashed in his heart, he sighed in his heart, and when he heard Wang Yan ask, he said respectfully: "Little nephew, listen to the arrangement of the elders." ”

The attitude is very sincere, and there is no perfunctory meaning.

"Good. Nodding, he was very satisfied with Wang Shoutian's attitude, but Wang Yan didn't forget to remind him one or two.

"The son of the Song family came here this time to confirm the engagement gift with you, and you said that you would accompany him around the county so that you could achieve this as soon as possible. ”

Although it was not explicitly stated, it was also pointed out in the words that the key to the success of this marriage lies in the son of the Song family.

"No. Wang Shoutian nodded.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Wang Shoutian took the son of the Song family to inspect the county together.

Wang Shoutian was dressed in civilian clothes, although he was not extremely handsome in appearance, he could definitely be called a talent, and Song Ziye was also satisfied.

Song Ziye is humble and polite, without the arrogance of a big clan, but he has the spirit of a big clan, which also makes Wang Shoutian very satisfied, in his previous life, his situation was too poor, and he didn't know why he succeeded, but he didn't get the sincere effect of this person, in this life, it is different.

Along the way, the two talked very happily, and Wang Yan, who was traveling with him, deliberately slowed down the horse, slightly behind the two.

At this time, it was summer in Jishui County, and the sky was red and empty, and it was hot after only a while.

So, after a quick turn, the group returned to the palace.

Song Ziye has already seen it clearly, and the governance here is very good.

Looking at Shoutian, the king who was urging the horse to move forward calmly, he nodded secretly, this son is okay with his own little sister.

A few days later, Song Ziye still stayed.

Accompanied by Wang Shoutian, he toured the city medicine hall and the north and south cities, and even went to the Dragon Girl Temple to make incense.

Before leaving, he handed over his sister's belongings to Wang Shoutian.

Wang Shoutian handed over a heirloom jade pendant to Song Ziye.

At this point, this marriage was officially decided.

After Song Ziye left, Wang Shoutian was busy with the appointment, and Wang Yan took the good news and returned to the Wenyang Mansion first.

Wenyang Mansion, the Jie Du Embassy Mansion.

The kingfisher in front of the window was singing, and in the study, Wang Zunzhi's face was gray, and in front of him, a woman, with cold eyebrows, stared at him.

"Madam, why are you so ......" Wang Zunzhi said with a sigh.

"Master, why I am here, don't you know? I have three sons, two sons died young, one son died, the pain of losing a son, let me ask you, can you really empathize?"

"Madame, what do you mean by that?"

Wang Zunzhi looked at his wife, thinking of the rumors he heard at this time, his face sank.

"What do I mean? Hmph, am I really ignorant when I am a woman? Your second brother went to Chengdu Mansion, I already know what happened, why, I want to recognize a nephew casually, take him as an heir, and enjoy the wealth and glory of my poor son? You are really ruthless, I can tell you, you want to accept the heir, this candidate, must be decided by me. ”

"If it depends on you, who should you accept?" At this time, Wang Zunzhi calmed down and only asked lightly.

But the woman didn't know the inside story of accepting the heir, so she only had to obey Wang Zunzhi, and this handsome position was originally passed down by her father, and of course she could manage it, so she put forward the person she chose.

"Nonsense! What nonsense! This son is just an ordinary clansman, how can he take on a big responsibility?" Wang Zunzhi shook his head after hearing this.

It turned out that the person chosen by Mrs. was not even as good as the other two candidates.

But the woman made a fuss and said, "If you don't obey, don't think I'll confess the heir."

In peacetime, if she makes such a fuss, the king will obey everything and follow it.

has been married for 20 years, Wang Zunzhi has always respected her, but she only takes it for granted.

Later, her three sons died, in order to appease her sorrow, she made trouble in every possible way, and Wang Zunzhi only comforted her with gentle words.

She thought that as long as she didn't follow her, things would go as she wanted.

What does Wang Shoutian have to do with her?

All of this is owned by her son, how can she give it to outsiders?

But the person he chose was obedient to his words, which made her happy to see him, and his appearance was a little similar to that of a dead boy, so he was a little closer to him.

Her plan is clear, that is, she really hands over this great inheritance to outsiders, and she needs to be a person she approves, so that she can continue to enjoy wealth in the future.

But how can this matter be compared with that trivial matter?

Not to mention that the person chosen by Wang Zunzhi is his own illegitimate son and is connected with his own blood, so he is not, how can he listen to a woman's words and choose an ordinary son as his successor?

Seeing the woman crying, he endured it again and again, and finally completely chilled his heart, and said flatly: "Madam, do you know that if it is up to you, this great inheritance will eventually be destroyed?"

The woman opened her mouth and said, "This inheritance was created by my father, and you married me to get it, and the next generation is my son, and now that my sons are all dead, of course I have to choose the right person!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zunzhi closed his eyes and sighed softly.

"Someone. ”

"Your Excellency. Immediately someone answered, and came in from outside.

"Madame's surname is Xili Buddha, I have always refused, but now I think it is a great goodness, come to someone, send my wife to the city meditation nunnery, cultivate the heart surname, and worship the heart of the Buddha!"

“...... "If you have a personal soldier, you should respond."

When the woman heard this, she was dumbfounded and said hatefully: "Wang Zunzhi, you are so ruthless, my father has mistaken you, you wolf-hearted thing!"

Wang Zunzhi didn't look back, and waved his hand.

The soldiers no longer hesitated, and pulled her out, and along the way, the crying and shouting continued: "Wang Zunzhi, you will regret it!"

And the person who was left alone in the room seemed to be ten years old for a while.

A day later, when he heard that the second brother returned, he regained his spirit and summoned him.

"Big brother, it's done, this son is really good, big brother, the decision you made, the younger brother is now convinced. After telling everything he saw and heard on this trip, Wang Yan expressed his sincere convincing attitude to his brother's choice.

Seeing this, Wang Zunzhi finally showed the only smile in a few days, and he was in a happy mood, Wang Shoutian did this, he was really happy.

"So come and draft the paperwork, and in a few days I will take him as my heir. Wang Zunzhi said that his body was already worse than one day, if he didn't set his name early, he was afraid that there would be an emergency, and everything would be water.

He knew that his wife had a good temper, and if that was the case, he was afraid that this huge foundation would really be destroyed by him.

Wang Yan also heard about this, as the second brother, but it was not good to ask about it, so he had to pretend not to know, seeing that his brother's decision had been made, he no longer persuaded him, anyway, Wang Shoutian's son is indeed talented, but he can take on a big responsibility, if the future is really inherited by him, it is the blessing of the Wang family.

So, happily said, "No." ”
