The fifty-third to fifty-fourth chapters funeral (1)
Chapters 53 to 54: The Great Mourning (I)
Lai Tongyu naturally knew that the lord’s most anxious thing is to mine gold mines. He had already discussed it before, and all military expenditures were counting on!
But he stayed for three days and waited for a team of personal soldiers to come. The team was trained by the lord in Jishui County. His family background was innocent and he had not yet become a habit of a tooth soldier. It was the most useful.
On this day, Lai Tongyu rested in the county munition and read the book in the hall for half a day. Although he wanted to see the miserable appearance of this county and wanted to rectify it, he was not within his authority and could only breathe out.
After all, Lai Tongyu is from an official family. He knows the joints and rules. He insists on not speaking or interrupting.
At this time, Chang Sui came up and reported: "Master, the army is coming, and a team is asking for a meeting."
"Are you finally here? Let him in." Lai Tongyu said happily.
After a moment, a young man in leather armor, with heroic spirit on his body, came to the hall and saluted: "Captain Zhou Bin pays homage to the Lord."
When Lai Tongyu met, he said, "Did you come from Jishui County?"
"That is, on the order of the lord, I wait for the order of the Lord."
"Very good. It's the most important thing to avoid inciting trouble among miners among miners and gathering people to cause trouble. So I'll call you here. Come with me now and take turns to guard the periphery. You don't have to worry about the matter inside." Lai Tongyu was anxious and immediately said, and stood up.
The entourage asked with a smile: "The master is going out now, but I will come back for dinner? If I don't come back, do you have to give it to me if I give it to you?"
Lai Tongyu pondered: "This time you will send someone to organize it and make more food, both the military and the civilians will supply it. It is considered a reward for mining!"
The attendant responded and went to do his own work.
When Lai Tongyu went out, he saw fifty soldiers waiting outside. He immediately ordered people to pull over the carriage, go up by himself, and slowly head towards the mining area.
This road is difficult to walk. After an hour, I arrived at the mining area.
When I arrived at the mining area, I saw that the mountain was not high, and now the mountain was full of dead grass. When I looked again, I saw that the wooden houses in the camp were cleaned up very neatly, at least without water or rain, and a big stone suddenly fell in my heart.
As soon as he passed, Zhao Lingli ran over and kowtowed and bowed: "Sir!"
"Have you finished what I told you?"
"Sir, you're done, look, everyone has arrived." As he said that, he ordered to take people. After a while, hundreds of people were already there. Everyone had a good face, but they were indeed young and strong, so he couldn't help but nod.
Zhao Lingli was really talented by Lai Tongyu's words. He actually comforted these people in just a few days.
Lai Tongyu said instructed: "It is divided into external camps and internal camps. The external camps are guarded by the team, and the internal camps are divided into two and a half. There are still some people who are coming. You can just assign them according to this!"
He said again: "Today I will give you wine and meat, you can go and rest first, and work will start tomorrow."
"Abide by the order!" Zhao Lingli and the team leader Zhou Bin immediately responded.
Lai Tongyu knew nothing about gold mines, but according to the lord's words, he just digs around and digs deeper. Sure enough, the bottom layer is not thick. On the third day, Zhou Bin, a team leader, sent someone to report: "Sir, you have dug out the gold."
At this time, Lai Tongyu was waiting in the hall. After hearing this, he quickly stood up.
I saw that there were a few pieces in the basin I was given, some of which were so-called natural dog-head gold, and some were stones with golden light. Lai Tongyu hurried forward and looked carefully. It felt very heavy, and it was indeed gold. Lai Tongyu let go of his heart and couldn't help laughing.
You should know that this time he came to Shunyi County and shouldered the most important mission, which was to mine gold. If this matter is not done properly, he would be ashamed of his trust in the lord.
"I'm passing the order that the wages will be increased by 50% and the food will be increased by 50%. I must dig it up carefully. Also, the guards must strictly search their bodies. Whoever dares to carry gold out will be punished immediately!"
"Abide by the order!"
Ten days later, the ore veins were completely found, and gold was mined continuously. After one and a half months, Lai Tongyu made a small pot of gold to turn into gold bars. He weighed it, and it was worth more than 6,800 taels. Even if it was not pure now, there were still five thousand taels of gold. Lai Tongyu laughed loudly, and finally felt relieved and said, "Hurry, bring it to the lord, and transport it to the lord!"
When Lai Tongyu arrived at Wenyang Mansion, he arrived at the Marshal's Mansion to announce the good news, but he saw people coming and going, all in a hurry, but with a kind of sadness and amazement.
Lai Tongyu stayed for a while and finally saw a familiar person passing by. He hurriedly pulled him over and asked, "What's going on? This mansion?"
The man was angry at first, but then he looked up and saw that it was Lai Tongyu. He hurriedly endured it and whispered: "Don't you know yet? The old handsome guy is almost out of his way!"
"Ah!" Lai Tongyu was startled and his eyes jumped: "So fast?"
"Sir Lai, there is no news in the mansion now, so I don't know outside. Sir Lai, you should sit for a while first. I think the lord will meet you soon."
Lai Tongyu bowed and said, "I understand. Just go, I'll wait here. If the lord cannot meet, I will come again tomorrow."
He took out some silver again, and the man took it and went out silently.
After a while, a man hurried over with his servant. When Lai Tongyu saw him, he quickly saluted: "Lord!"
The person who came was Wang Hongyi. At this time, he looked pale, smiled reluctantly, and said, "I heard that you have dug out the gold?"
"Yes, lord, look, 6,500 taels of gold!" As soon as the box was opened, there were golden gold bars inside. Although the production was a bit rough, it was indeed gold bars.
Wang Hongyi casually ordered: "Take one and follow along."
"Yes!" Lai Tongyu responded quickly, a gold bar was heavy, but not large. He took it and followed.
I saw a group of people running to one yard, where there were people coming and going.
Some were preparing to move the clothes box and take out the mourning clothes, some carried kettles, and several medical officers were rushing in and out, and the smell of medicine was everywhere in the yard, but at this time, although there were many people, they all tiptoed.
Wang Hongyi took several people in and saw that the old man was lying on the bed by the window, his face turned yellow, his eyes closed, and his breathing was subtle.
Medical Officer Zhao was taking care of him, and someone was holding a bowl of ginseng soup, and even Wang Hongyi was not aware of it when he came in.
"The general is here!" When a man heard the movement, he turned around and saw that it was Wang Hongyi, so he hurriedly pushed Medical Officer Zhao. Medical Officer Zhao felt that he wiped his eyes and bowed.
Wang Hongyi nodded and said, "How is the situation?"
Medical Officer Zhao said, "Yes, this morning, Dashen felt very tired and asked me to come and have a look. I didn't expect that before I could do it, Dashen fell into a coma."
Perhaps because he heard Wang Hongyi's words, Wang Zunzhi's face turned bloody like a miraculous look and opened his eyes. At this time, Medical Officer Zhao hurried forward, took the bowl, took the spoon, and fed it bite by bit.
This is the Fifty Old Ginseng Soup, which is used to silence your life. Wang Zunzhi took a few sips and looked a little better. He smiled at Wang Hongyi and said, "My son, it seems that he can't escape this time."
Wang Hongyi felt a pain in his heart, and he stepped forward and whimpered: "Father, you only need to take care of your disease and it will be cured. Don't think about it!"
"Hey, I'm clear, this is a rebirth." Wang Zunzhi smiled and said, "Maybe I understand it very much before I die, and I really gave you a problem in the end."
Wang Zunzhi paused and smiled sadly: "General Dingyuan, hehe, General Dingyuan, it is not easy to sit firmly in this position!"
Wang Hongyi burst into tears and said, "Father, don't worry, I will hold on and watch me make the overall situation back."
As he said that, he stepped forward and whispered two more words.
"Oh, so, you are blessed. I don't care about this little gold. What I care about is that you are blessed. When you want it, you will have it. I feel much more at ease!"
Wang Zunzhi showed a child-like smile, his eyes lit up and dimmed again. At this time, his face gradually changed and he became gray and white.
Wang Hongyi was shocked and stepped forward.
Wang Zunzhi's body suddenly twitched and he whispered: "Don't be afraid, I'll make up all the cooking... That woman died with me today, you buried me with her..."
Wang Hongyi leaned on him and listened to Wang Zunzhi's weaker voice: "I figured it out, the Li family is a disaster, and I don't protect me... Oh... I'm going to die, what should you do... I'll do... You said you want to take over the world... I support, hey, our Wang family's world..."
At this point, Wang Zunzhi just twitched his lips and could no longer hear it.
At this time, Medical Officer Zhao rushed forward and stabbed it with a needle.
Wang Zunzhi suddenly opened his eyes and said, "My son, I'm watching you make achievements underground..."
Speaking of this, when you tilt your head, your breath will disappear.
Wang Hongyi felt confused. After taking a few steps, he was about to fall. Several people behind him rushed forward and helped him sit on the stool. Wang Hongyi was stunned for a moment, staring at Wang Zunzhi's body, and said for a while: "Then, come according to the rules..."
From then on, no one secretly helped or cared about him behind his back.
"As for order!" Everyone should be together.
Wang Hongyi was quiet for a moment, his eyes kept crying, but his heart became clearer and clearer. He said desperately: "The whole mansion has changed into filial piety clothes, so that the two counties will not be happy."
"I ordered all officials to come to the mansion to pay homage to the kid spirit and hold a grand funeral." At this point, he remembered that Wang Zunzhi had dealt with his affairs in the past few months. He didn't need to do anything at this time, just use it.
He felt sad again and said, "My father was uneasy for a long time. Now he has passed away. Thinking about his words and expressions, how can he be sad? Mrs. Zhang, the wife, was so sad that he died. He also died. How can I bear this? It's just that the son is filial and dedicated to his heart and etiquette. He should have had a great funeral for three years, but I am the lord of the two counties and the government and military are busy. If I am a mourning person and are negligent and have a major cause, I will hurt my father's entrusted career. I will hold a funeral for 27 days."
Speaking of this, he said, "The two counties suddenly undergo a major change. I am mourning. I am afraid there is something wrong. Even if Li Gang and Secretary Lang Yu Zhao handle the funeral, Wang Yan is an uncle, but Changding Mansion is very important. It should not be left without a master for many days. After bowing, I will go back to the mansion to serve the matter. All the other generals and ministers will respond!"
"When there is a big change, if there is any change, and rumors will be killed without any scruples!" At this point, there was already a murderous aura.
