Chapter 113 Don't Be a Gentleman(1/2)
Chapter 113 Don’t be a gentleman
Wang Ping, who looked like a down-and-out scholar, left the Weiwu Bo Mansion with a hunched over, turned over a few willow trees on the top of the stream, and immediately straightened his waist and left quickly.
Since Yang Ling was imprisoned and all the girls stopped the court, Yu Tangchun's life experience has been well known. Wang Jinglong and Wang Ping were expected to use this excuse. For the sake of the young lady's face, the Gaofu housekeeper would inevitably hand the letter to her. In this way, the plan was halfway.
According to Wang Qiong's arrangement, as soon as Wang Jinglong was rescued, he immediately sent him to Jiangnan. However, Wang Jinglong was already blinded by hatred and would rather burn his jade than live in vain. Wang Ping had no choice but to cooperate with his plan.
Two men in gray-clothed clothes in bamboo hats turned out from a pile of firewood piles on the yard. A man in his early twenties stared at Wang Ping, who was walking hurriedly on the riverside at the entrance of the village and smiled: "Are all the factory guards so idiots? Wouldn't he be hunched out of the village?"
Another man in gray-clothed thirty years old looked around alertly and said, "No wonder he is, even if he is in the palace of kings, princes and ministers, who would have nothing to do to put a secret stump at the door? Follow him and I will report back to President Liu."
Yang Ling knew that the establishment of the inner factory would sooner or later, with the Jinyiwei and the East Factory. Liu Biao was just a small lieutenant in the Jinyiwei. He was always loyal to himself and was very respectful to his young lady during his imprisonment. He was really short of people in the construction of the western factory, so he told Liu Biao frankly. He wanted Liu Biao to kill the official and rebelled with Yang Ling. How could he disagree with Yang Ling to get promoted and make money?
At this point, Liu Biao had already followed Yang Ling with all his heart. In order to prevent the East Factory, someone from Jinyiwei was brave enough to do something unfavorable to his family. Yang Ling secretly asked Liu Biao to be on guard with great care, so Liu Biao naturally spared no effort.
These five hundred personal soldiers were all healthy men selected from the scouts, and were trained by Han Lin, Liu Biao and others in the mountains. They were all masters of hiding, tracking and assassination. Liu Biao had more than a dozen spies like spies around the Yang Mansion day and night. There were few outsiders in this small village. Now, a strange fly could not hide it from their eyes.
Yang Ling met Liu Biao in the living room. After hearing his report, he said to the old housekeeper in confusion: "A down-and-out middle-aged scholar came to the mansion just now?"
The senior manager said, "Master, there is such a person. The man said he was Miss Su's distant relative. When he found out that Miss Su married into our family, he wanted to ask the lady to help him. The old slave thought this was not a glorious thing, and was afraid that Miss Su would not be able to bear the face. So he secretly handed her the letter from his relative, so he never reported it to the master and asked him to forgive him."
Yang Ling said suspiciously: "Her relatives, how can they leave in a hurry after sending a letter to Qiufeng?"
Liu Biao said: "Sir, it's not only that. The man came here as a hunchbacked scholar, but he straightened his waist and couldn't wait to leave. If a poor relative came to the door, why should he be so secretive? There must be something strange about this."
Yang Ling was worried that Su San did have personal privacy and was considering whether to ask her. A servant came and said, "Master, there is a messenger from Eunuch Dai who wants to see the Master."
Yang Ling hurriedly asked someone to call the little eunuch into the hall and took Dai Yi's secret letter. After opening it for a long time, he suddenly bounced his fingers on the letter and chuckled gently...
Miaoying Temple, also known as Baita Temple, is located on the north side of Fuchengmen Street. Two sedan chairs arrive in front of the temple gate. When the curtains are raised, two charming and picturesque beauties come out.
The two beauties had black hair like ink, both wearing emerald green jackets, lake-colored eight-spoke wind skirts, lightly moved the bow shoes, slowed the hem of the skirt, and thin pleats spread like water patterns. They looked even more graceful and graceful, like blue waves. The two pretty women immediately attracted the eyes of the pilgrims.
Xuelimei was bored for a long time. This was the first time she went out with Yu Tangchun, so she was very happy. She didn't pay attention to Yu Tangchun's hesitant expression. She rushed into the hall and snatched a cushion. She greeted Yu Tangchun and said, "Sister, come, let's worship the Buddha first."
Yu Tangchun forced a smile. She walked to her side and knelt down next to her. Xue Limei closed her eyes slightly and worshiped the Buddha devoutly. There was a satisfying and sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, and she didn't know what wish she had made.
Yu Tangchun looked dazed and had been hated for so many years, but when she saw the misery and pitifulness mentioned in her biological father's letter, she had no choice but to beg her, but she had no shame to see her afraid of scolding her. She only asked her to come to the Miaoying Temple Tower Lin today, and when she saw her, she couldn't help but feel pity.
No matter how hateful he is, his body and life are always given to him. I will help him to do this for the whole father and daughter. Yu Tangchun sighed in her heart and touched the silver bill in her arms. It was all her savings.
Among the crowd outside the hall, several men stood leisurely beside the large copper stove with cigarette curling cigarettes, squinting at the backs of the two, just like looking at the prey in their eyes. A man with a scar on his face looked at the absence of outsiders and said nervously: "Brother Huang, we made tens of thousands of taels of silver in a few tickets we went to Beijing this time. Is it necessary to take this risk again?"
The bearded man named Huang, who was assisted by Wang Jinglong to escape from prison. He smiled coldly and asked, "What? Are you scared?"
The scar man said: "Brother, I'm not afraid, but... this female relative is a mighty uncle's woman. I heard that he stopped the emperor from raising taxes for the sake of our hardships. He almost got his head beheaded and touched his woman..."
Brother Huang smiled coldly and said disdainfully: "Where are those dog officials good people? Isn't it to gain a good reputation for themselves? Our land is still annexed by Guanzhuang and Wangzhuang, and is still forced to raise horses by the court every year. Grandma's, if the stallion dies, you have to pay for money, and if the stallion doesn't have a horse, you have to pay for money. How many people are forced to lose their entire family?
This world is over. Brother Hu recruits soldiers and now he is short of money. Let's get more money before going back. Hey! When Brother Hu rises up and conquers the world, you and I will be the founding fathers."
Another man was so excited that he couldn't help asking: "Boss, do you think Brother Hu can really succeed? If he fails, then... it's the crime of beheading."
Boss Huang glared at him, lowered his voice and cursed fiercely: "Barring the truth, can we survive now? Didn't Liu Shenxian show Brother Hu's appearance to Brother Hu? Yang Hu, Bazhou, Ziwei is reincarnated. Brother Hu has the emperor's appearance, and God is protecting him."
He didn't seem to want to talk about this issue, and changed the topic: "After a while, the man named Niu led two women to Tallinn, he immediately followed and kidnapped people and left."
The scar-faced man's cheek twitched and said, "Brother, I think this Niu is not an ordinary person, otherwise how dare he go against the mighty uncle? And he is generous. We tied up people and went out to find them to hide. Do you want to...hehe. I copied them all?"
Boss Huang said decisively: "No, there are also thieves. You cannot break the rules of the law. Otherwise, who would dare to do business with us in the future? After collecting the money, we will immediately rush to Qingfeng Temple in Xishan to avoid it for a few days. When the wind is low, we will return to Bazhou. Let's settle their destiny."
Xuelimei and Yutangchun kowtowed shoulder to shoulder. Xuelimei approached Yutangchun a little, put her hands together, and asked whispered: "Sister Yu. What wish did you make?"
Yutang was in a daze and asked her, and she couldn't help but panic: "Ah? What? No...I didn't make any wishes."
Xue Limei curled her lips and teased, "Then why are you so panicked? She still hides it from me. Humph, with the master, I won't kiss my sister. I'm not afraid to tell you, I... I'm making a wish... I wish the Buddha blesses you and give birth to a son and a daughter for the master next year..."
Although Yu Tangchun was full of thought, she still laughed at her and said coquettishly: "You are so shameless, how can a big girl make this wish?"
Xue Limei raised her mouth and said, "What else? I can't compare to Madam. You are more beautiful than me. If you don't give birth to a child in front of you, can the master love me?"
Yu Tangchun sighed: "Silly girl, women still have to be virtuous. Look at the wife so virtuous. How much the master respects her. How long can she last for a long time when serving her with beauty? You. Keep dreaming about your spring and autumn here."
She stood up and rubbed her knees. Xue Limei also stood up and asked, "Where are you going? I heard that the hexagrams in this temple are so powerful. Let's go and dig up a hexagram."
Yu Tangchun shook her head and said, "You go, I want...I want to untie it, and I will be back in a while."
Yutang Chunzhi responded to a reason, walked out of the hall gate and pretended to leave the temple to get out of the temple. After walking halfway, he saw no one paid attention. He flashed from the small path of pine and cypress to the Tallinn in the middle hall.
There are more than a hundred white pagodas, with small copper bells tied to them. When the wind blows, a pleasant ringtone sounds are made. Yu Tangchun hurried into the tower forest with her skirt, looking around and walking towards the depths.
Because most of the places where Buddha worship are locals, the Talin tree has been visited all over the place, so there are not many tourists in the Talin tree. Sometimes three or two people can be seen from afar. Yu Tangchun turned several pagodas and looked around. Suddenly, a sinister voice behind her called out: "Zhou Yujie!"
Yu Tangchun was shocked and turned around suddenly. She saw a scholar in green robe with a gloomy face looking at him coldly. Yu Tangchun was shocked and understood that she had fallen into a treacherous plan. She took two steps back and said in a lost voice: "Wang Jinglong, it's you... have you escaped from Tailing?"
Wang Jinglong couldn't hide his pride and resentment on his face, and said in a silence: "Da Gui is not good at it, but it is beautiful. Miss Zhou is so charming even when she is panicked."
He pressed over excitedly and said, "Little bitch, you have caused me so much trouble. Now I'll cheat you and then go, where will you escape? Hahaha, don't worry, I won't kill you, I will take you away, and deal with you, a bitch who rides thousands of people and ten thousand people, before sending you back to Yang Ling."
He couldn't help laughing wildly with excitement: "At that time, you couldn't see your eyes, your ears, your mouth, and your limbs were gone. They were dirty like a pig. I hope Yang Ling would still love you and love you, hahahaha..."
Yu Tangchun said that he was terrifying like life was worse than death, and his pretty face turned pale. She had a cold war and turned around and ran away. When Wang Jinglong followed Tallinn just now, Boss Huang and his men had already looked at him. At this time, he heard the footsteps behind him and couldn't help but laugh: "Where can you run? Hahaha, grab her for me and take it out of the city immediately."
A voice behind him laughed and said, "I dare not. Xiaodi is not crazy, how dare I touch Lord Yang's woman?"
Wang Jinglong turned around in shock and immediately saw a big fist hitting his nose, slamming his nose with a punch.
Xue Limei begged a sign up for the upper limit and ran out of the hall gate happily, trying to show off to Yu Tangchun. As soon as she walked out of the hall gate, she suddenly saw a noise in the courtyard. More than a dozen big men dressed in various colors walked out of the pine and cypress forest with twisting a few people, and couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Then two bald monks were dragging a man out like a dog, strode out, followed by a smiling man in green, and behind him, like stars holding the moon, Yu Tangchun was protected by six or seven people.
Xue Limei saw the man in green and recognized that it was Liu Biao, the commander of Yang Ling's personal army. When she looked at Yu Tangchun behind her, she couldn't help but face him strangely and said, "My Lord Liu, Sister Yu, what's going on?"
Liu Biao was about to talk when a big man rushed over to Liu Biao and said, "Tell me, there is one of the thieves who is very skilled in martial arts. He was hit by a young raid. He climbed over the wall and ran away when he saw that the opportunity was wrong."
Liu Biao said angrily: "Doctors can't hold on to a few kidnappers. They are really a group of people who don't have any money. Hurry up and chase them."
At this time, four personal military lieutenants outside the temple gate carried their waist knives and surrounded by Yang Ling, who was wearing light shirts and swords, walked in. Yu Tangchun and Xue Limei were both surprised and happy when they saw it. However, Yang Ling only glanced at the two girls, then smiled and greeted the monk who was walking over quickly, and said with a polite manner: "I have to thank the master for the convenience that I can hold these kidnappers and robbers today."
The fat monk laughed like Maitreya Buddha and said to the commander of the imperial guards: "Where is the general, he designed to eliminate evil and uphold justice. I should help me."
Yang Ling laughed and shook his hand. At this moment, two constables from the Five City Military and Masjids who had arrived after hearing the news broke into the temple with great momentum. As soon as they entered the temple gate, they shouted: "Who is taking people randomly without the permission of the Military and Masjid?"
They saw Yang Ling and his men's imperial guards' clothing. Before they could see Yang Ling's rank clearly, the two "urban management" had already been three points shorter, and nodded and bowed everywhere with their waist knives and chains, "The small five-city military personnel, Xiao Yu, Jing Ge, have seen all the soldiers. Uh... What kind of thief is the soldiers taking?"
Yang Ling walked over and said, "I am Yang Ling. I am taking the bandits who intend to kidnap my female family. Haha. You are here just in time and take me to meet your Censor."
Although the emperor's personal army had a high position and was in power, he did not have the right to arrest people at will in the capital. Yang Ling did not want to be criticized and said that he set up a private court, so he naturally wanted to hand the criminals over to the Wucheng Military Office. Seeing that the master had entered the temple gate, Yu Tangchun didn't look at her directly. She felt both grievance and fear in her heart. She walked over timidly and whispered: "Master..."
Yang Ling was annoyed that she had something to do and discussed it herself. Although he didn't know why Yu Tangchun was browsed by Wang Jinglong, if it weren't for the fact that he had received Dai Yi and reported it in time to prevent the factory guards, wouldn't she have been kidnapped and humiliated? So he was angry. When he saw her coming, he looked slapped and snorted heavily: "If you have anything to say when you go home, go to the Five City Military and Ma Situation with me."
Xiao Yu and Jing Ge saw the hero in front of the emperor cooperated so much, and hurriedly followed behind his butt with gratitude and shouted with mightyness to watch the fun. The people dispersed. Because the weather was hot, the imperial envoy had just given the official robe and drank tea. When he heard that Yang Ling was coming, he hurriedly put on his clothes and ran out in panic.
Yang Ling was sitting on a chair at this time, performing a story about taming his wife. Yu Tangchun knelt in front of him, and said the deceiving of the book in a sympathetic manner. Yang Ling snorted coldly: "So you made your own decision and made up a reason to come to the temple to burn incense? If I hadn't received the news in advance, would you think about what would happen now?"
Yang Ling winked at Xuelimei, but still showed her power and said, "Get up, go home and settle the score with you." When Xuelimei saw his wink, she went over to help Yu Tangchun up, pulled her under the flag behind the side, and laughed in her ear: "Okay, okay. The master is angry because he loves you, don't be afraid, go back and take out your charming methods to the master, and tell him that he is weak in his hands and feet, so he will naturally spare you."
Yu Tangchun was so scared by Yang Ling that he was so scared that he heard the girl say something crazy, and he was angry and ashamed. But if Yang Ling hadn't been ambushed here in advance today, pretending to be a pilgrimage, hawker, monk, and capturing the group of thieves in time, the consequences would be really unimaginable.
So no matter how the master punished her, she really had nothing to say. Yu Tangchun thought nervously: I just don’t know what the master’s family rules are. I heard that some officials beat slaves and concubines with either whips or wooden sticks. I hope the master will not be so cruel.
The commander of the city patrol ran out in panic. In the lobby of his own, Lord Yang showed his official power and taught his wife a lesson. He couldn't even interfere, so he had to stand respectfully on the side. At this time, he finally took the opportunity and hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "The commander of the commander of the city patrol, Hu Zhou, please see Lord Yang."
Yang Ling did not intend to be arrogant in front of him, but Liu Biao had reminded him in advance. He knew that the city patrol Lord Hu was also an official promoted by Wang Qiong. Although Wang Qiong did not take charge of the Ministry of Personnel, he served as the Minister of Rites for many years. Many of the people who became officials after the imperial examination were promoted when he was an examiner. According to the rules, even if he was a disciple, although it was easy for a cheap teacher to do it, many officials were indeed grateful for his appreciation. Yang Ling was worried that he would be polite to Wang Qiong, so he intended to give him a warning.
Seeing that he was very respectful in his rituals, Yang Ling stood up and said, "Mr. Hu, this person in the hall is the son of Wang Qiong, the Minister of Rites of Nanjing, and the emperor appointed a criminal. He escaped from Tailing, colluded with a group of bandits, and deliberately plotted to murder my family. Fortunately, he was taken by my guards. Please ask for a crime."
Although Wang Qiong fell down, he had a wide range of connections in Beijing, so Hu Zhou, a small patrol envoy, could not afford to offend the Lord Yang in front of him. However, he could not afford to offend the Lord Yang even more. Hu Zhou had to bite the bullet and agree and go to the court to ask about the case.
The yamen runner brought a basin of water and first slammed Wang Jinglong to wake up with a "slam". Wang Jinglong woke up quietly and saw Yang Ling sitting aside, Yu Tang standing behind him with a roar of love. The governor was exposed, and he couldn't help but shouted in hatred and rushed towards him with red eyes.
Although Wang Jinglong was a weak scholar, his crazy aura was so heartbroken that Yang Ling was shocked and stood up involuntarily. The two yamen runners reacted very quickly and caught up with two wind and fire sticks and fell to the ground with a little bent in Wang Jinglong's knee. Wang Jinglong fell to the ground with a "bang", and was then stopped by the two yamen runners and controlled them with both hands.
Wang Jinglong couldn't move, so he stretched out his neck and bit Yang Ling's hem. He stared at two eyes that seemed to be devouring, and stared at him tightly. The endless hatred made Yang Ling stand up with a chill.
He understands that Wang Jinglong wants to take revenge on him, but why does he hate him so much? Are these people all irrational, just not considering the reasons for the matter, and not thinking about how much harm it will cause to others if they succeed when they harm others?
Yang Ling knew that his destiny was not long, so he didn't really think much about the harm others had to him, but he would never tolerate others' harm to his family. That was his only position to insist on and never give in.
At this time, seeing Wang Jinglong's venomous eyes, he finally realized that the hatred between the two families was impossible to reconcile: when he was in power, he could think of letting go of others, and never thought of hurting other people's family, but if he fell into the hands of others, would that person let him go? Will he let his innocent family go?
Yang Ling said in shock and angrily: "Mr. Hu, this prisoner escaped from prison and was injured by buying a murderer. He was still so rampant in the lobby. Have you seen it?"
Hutong gritted his teeth and shouted, "Come on, drag the criminal down, hit the forty boards again, and then take it to the court to ask questions!"
Two more yamen runners went over, and four people grabbed Wang Jinglong and dragged them down the hall. Wang Jinglong stared at Yang Ling with extremely hatred eyes, and gritted his teeth and refused to let go. The yamen runners were immediately annoyed. No matter who you are, a yamen runner immediately let go of his hand, pulled out his palms and mouth to scrape the floor, and looked at his cheeks with a few slaps. Wang Jinglong's cheeks were tickled, and his mouth was bleeding, and even his teeth were loose.
The yamen runners took advantage of the situation and pulled off Yang Ling's robe. Several people dragged Wang Jinglong to the threshold. A yamen runner hurried in and said, "Your Majesty, the three great scholars of the cabinet, the rituals, the officials, the four ministers of the households, and the ministers of the court have arrived."
Wang Jinglong opened his bloody mouth and laughed wildly when he heard this. Hu Zhou was shocked and stood up in an instant. He hurriedly clamped the black shawl and said, "Hurry up, take the prisoner into the class room and leave the class for the time being."
Yang Ling was shocked when he heard that so many famous people came. He quickly waved his hand to let Xuelimei and Yutangchun retreated outside the hall. Three yamen runners retreated, and as soon as they reached the door, they saw a group of white-haired veterans in the court hurriedly coming.
It turned out that Wang Jinglong bribed the thieves to try to capture Yu Tangchun out of the city to vent his anger. Wang Ping drove a carriage to wait on the gable outside Miaoying Temple. Unexpectedly, he saw that the sedan chair in the Yang Mansion arrived, Yang Ling led a group of personal troops into the temple. He immediately knew something was wrong, and it was too late to notify the young master at this time. Wang Ping immediately abandoned the car and hid in the alley beside him.
The thieves were loyal. After being caught, no one confessed to him. There were also friends outside the temple to help him. Seeing these people and the unconscious young master were taken to the Wucheng Military and Masji, he immediately took a small road to the Meridian Gate.
Liu Jian, Xie Qian and Wang Qiong were also friends who often drank and poems. Wang Ping was the manager of the study in the Shangshu Mansion. He was very familiar with them, and even their housekeepers and sedan chairmen recognized them. When he arrived at the Meridian Gate, he had just found these adults, sedan chairmen, and it happened that such adults had just left after Wu Chao came out.
When Wang Ping saw several grand sects, he rushed over and kowtowed. He only said that the young master was deliberately tortured by Dai Yi and others in Tailing, and wanted to kill him. The young master could not bear the pain. With his help, he fled back to Beijing to ask the court to give him a way out, but was framed by Yang Ling and took it to the Wucheng Military and Ma Si.
Although these old ministers were dissatisfied with Wang Qiong's performance a few days ago, they were colleagues and friends for many years. Now that Wang Qiong's son was sent to Tailing and exiled to Jinling, it was miserable. He felt compassion when he heard this. Among them, the official who had long been dissatisfied with Yang Ling angrily blamed Yang Ling for breaking the rules and following him.
Yang Ling and Hu Zhou met the Grand Secretary, the Secretary of the People, Yang Fang, Wang Jiao and others, and hurriedly bowed to salute. Liu Jian, Li Dongyang and others were still calm. Yang Fang, Wang Jiao and Yang Shousui and others were angry when they saw Yang Ling. They shook their sleeves and stepped into the hall with anger.
To be continued...
