Chapter 158: Solved the doubts

"Mr. Shi added a thousand households in May and promoted to deputy envoy of the Jinling Guard Commander in July... The two uncles of the Jia family were replaced by military positions in March. Now they are all in the office of the Thousand Houses in Dongcheng. Uncle Jia is the Thousand Houses, and Uncle Jia is the head seal..."

Speaking of this, Huo Bao paused: "Uncle Shi is very worried about you. He asked my father to inquire about your news several times... My father had asked someone to go to Bozhou to find you, but there was no clue. He thought you were using a pseudonym..."

Unexpectedly, Shi Cong didn't go to Bozhou at all, but Hezhou, which is dozens of miles away from Jinling.

Shi Cong was stunned when he heard this.

The Jia brothers, one scholar, one is white, and one is from the fifth grade and the other is the fifth grade in half a year?

My cousin has been promoted to the position of the fifth-rank Pin and Seal for many years. It is not surprising that he has been promoted to a thousand households. However, he was promoted to the deputy envoy of the fourth-rank Commander and Commander Department for two levels, which is too terrifying.

While speaking, Huo Bao led him into a tea room.

It is a temporary place for the state yamen to receive guests.

"Jinling, what's wrong?"

The relatives and friends are all in Jinling, and history is concerned about it and chaos.

"I changed the prefect at the end of March and the commander of the Jinling Guard in April... Both of them love money. Jinling has increased taxes every month in the past six months, and many merchants have gone away..."

Shi Cong's face was even more worried and could no longer sit still.

Seeing this, Huo Bao was afraid that he would run back impulse and hurriedly said, "If your servant is away, it's better to hide for a few more days... The prefect of Jinling who left before was only attacking merchants. Now this prefect has a backer in the capital and has made too much money. He has already found an excuse to confiscate several gentry families."

This is not a scare Shi Cong, but a real thing.

It is because of this that Jinling City has complained.

The prefect scraped the land before and squeezed blood from merchants and the people. The gentry and the family affairs were not related to themselves and hung up high. Now that the flesh was cut from themselves, it really hurts.

Shi Cong also understood Huo Bao's meaning.

Those servants who fled were all future troubles.

If he never showed up, there would be nothing.

Even if the servant wants to bite the master and kill the officers and soldiers, it is unreasonable to prove it.

If Shi Cong returns, others will take out the servants to report Shi Cong, even if the evidence is insufficient, they will only rely on confessions and will lose their skin even if they do not die.

It was because he was worried about this that he did not dare to contact his family, for fear of losing his fortune and dragging down his relatives.

only……

He looked at Huo Bao with a high-profile look intently: "The benefactor has any letters to Brother Jia?"

Huo Bao nodded and said, "If you have a letter from home, you can send it here... Lingtang is the mourning in March, and it is claimed that Lingzun had an accident on the river and his children disappeared. I think he is still waiting for news about your brother and sister..."

Shi Cong's eyes were red.

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Huo Bao said in a distant manner: "I'm outside just now... are you doing something?"

Shi Cong smiled bitterly and said, "I saw that I was sitting in vain, so I thought about trying to take the exam... But my real name is afraid of future troubles, and my pseudonym has no household address, so I hesitated...

Huo Bao was curious about one thing for a long time.

"I wonder which one is the one in Chuzhou who is Ling Mei Xu's relative?"

When they escaped from Nanshan Village, the Jia Yuan and the Shi family met by the Huo family and his party, all of whom were related to Chuzhou.

Jia Yuan brought his son and nephew to Chuzhou to pay his birthday to his elders.

Shi Cong and his son went to Chuzhou to see their marriage, but encountered the defeated soldiers in Lingshui. Shi Cong's father died tragically, and Shi Cong killed officers and soldiers and fled.

When Huo Bao arrived in Chuzhou, he found out that it was Mr. Song who passed by his birthday in March.

Mr. Song and his uncle who died in the same year as Jia Yuan’s brothers, the wife of Mr. Song, was Jia Yuan’s cousin.

But it is difficult to find out which Shi's family is.

There are many young people with suitable marriages in the seventeenth and eighth, and several people have delayed their wedding due to natural disasters and man-made disasters.

Shi Cong smiled bitterly and said for a while: "It's the Wu family in Chuzhou..."

The Chuzhou army's "elimination of evil" in Chuzhou spread throughout the city as early as when the Chuzhou army besieged the city.

The evils of the father and son of the Wu family are well known in Hezhou.

Shi Cong felt that he had been married to such a family, even if he was a former in-law, he felt that he was blind.

Huo Bao felt something was wrong.

Long before, he thought about whether it would be the Wu family, and he asked someone to ask Mr. Wu’s grandsons about their marriages.

The older one has already been engaged, and the daughter of the official family whom my uncle made during his tenure. For some reason, he has not married him for a long time. The next grandson is the niece of the former magistrate, and the third grandson is a fool.

In March, the Wu family did not arrange for a marriage.

"Is it the second wife of the Wu family?"

Shi Cong shook his head and said, "It's the eldest son of the house and the eldest grandson..."

Huo Bao smiled: "I think so, Ling Zun Lingtang loves his daughter very much, and he thinks he looks down on the family style children of the second wife of the Wu family..."

Shi Cong smiled and said, "It was the two marriages that my grandfather had booked with the Wu family during his lifetime..."

Huo Bao said: "I think there is no complete news about the Wu family in Hezhou. In addition to rape and robbery, he also has a charge of killing his brother, killing nephew, and infringing on property... This is the property of the Wu family's parents' house..."

Is it Wu Mo?

Huo Bao has a good impression of Wu Mo.

Huo Wu is the leader, and Niu Qing and Wu Mo's sister have changed the ceremony in June.

The wedding date is tentatively scheduled for next year.

Shi Cong was shocked: "Is there such a thing? I really can't tell. Those who came to Jinling to discuss their marriage several times, but the final date of marriage was all Mr. Wu..."

If it weren't for the Wu family's urging, how could their father and son go north without asking about the situation on Huainan Road?

Huo Bao narrowed his eyes.

If you have nothing to do, you will either be traitor or steal.

The second wife of the Wu family is in front of the marriage, so I guess they have won the sweetness and want to do it again.

Especially this Shi family girl, because she is the eldest daughter of this generation, her dowry is very generous.

Huo Bao said what he knew: "The second wife of the Wu family robbed the marriage of the eldest granddaughter of her granddaughter last year, and the dowry was ready-made; I thought I had gotten this time, so I wanted to have a second time! I guess I was guilty, so I didn't make a big fuss about the wedding banquet. I deliberately set it in March, and urged you to send a wedding, most of them intentionally, wanting to change the groom while the chaos..."

When the Shi family comes, they can explain that it is difficult to handle due to the chaos.

Such a sneaky person probably wanted to tell Shi Cong to the three fools.

Shi Cong Teng stood up and trembled all over: "How dare they?"

Others don’t know that Huainan is in chaos, but the Wu family in Chuzhou don’t know?

They wanted to make money in the chaos, but they cheated Shi Erye to death.

Huo Bao said: "I'm also guessing. What's the specific thing? You can ask Wu Mo later."

Shi Cong angrily said, "He is a second wife who is well-educated, and he is a bird of a feather! If you send a letter to Jinling to remind him, there will be no future..."

Huo Bao thought about Wu Mo's lawsuit against the second wife, and mentioned that he had murdered, infringed on the property, and changed his relatives, but he did not mention the marriage of the Shi family.

Mostly I don't know.

"The first person to report to the second wife of the Wu family is Wu Mo... It is better to explain some things clearly in person, so as to save misunderstandings...

"Wu Mo is in Hezhou?"

"Well, I'll ask someone to come over and talk."

Huo Bao stood up and went to the door to call someone, and saw Niu Qing standing outside.

"Brother Qing."

"Uncle Wu heard that you brought the 'old friend' in and sent me to have a look."

"It's not an outsider, it's the second master of Shi who we met on the way to Jinling in March. Brother Qing went in and talk first, and I asked someone to call Wu Molai."

Niu Qing could hear it clearly and confusedly, so he entered the room.

Huo Bao had already called one person, whispered a few instructions, and sent him to the camp to call people.

Now that Wu Mo has not married, the daughter of the Shi family has not married, the marriage has been delayed for half a year, and it is unspeakable that it will be renewed.

For the Shi family, the daughter was married before, and she was at the point of sending her marriage. Later, she fell into the river and disappeared for more than half a year. Even if her brother was by her side, she would really get it on the table, which was a picky person. It was not easy to say a proper marriage again.

For the Wu family, the brother and sister had no choice but to rely on.

In Chuzhou...

Because Wu Mo first reported to Mr. Wu, it was very criticized.

Although the hatred of killing relatives is irreconcilable, Mr. Wu also has the kindness of raising Wu Mo and his sister.

Everyone in the world loves to talk about "forgiveness", especially to ask others for forgiveness.

If you can't be a saint yourself, you are particularly happy to make others saints.

He also likes to say that "raising grace is greater than giving birth to grace."

As for how to raise it, I didn't go back to pay attention.

Two furry children, who have no father or mother, grow up, are kindness.

As for not allowing school, if you change marriage, it will be a trivial matter in the eyes of others.

Continuing the marriage with the Shi family is not a bad thing for Wu Mo.

You have to say Wu Mo in advance and leave it in front of your future brother-in-law.

...

In the tea room, Niu Qing was already talking about the "deeds" of Huo Wu and his son.

He knew the relationship between the Huo family and the Shi family, and he had nothing to hide from Shi Congzi.

I just skipped the understatement of Tu San intentionally or unintentionally.

Now the Chuzhou Army leaders are basically the same when they talk about the past.

No one wants to admit that he is blind and has ever voted for the wrong person.

The version Shi Cong heard was that Huo Wu and his son went north and failed to find their relatives. They met several brothers in Heimen Mountain, and they all joined the White Shirt Army.

Later, he met Qu Yang's cousin and got his men and occupied Chuzhou and Binjiang. In the past half month, Chuzhou's army entered Hezhou to suppress bandits, and got Hezhou again.

During this period, we must describe the evil deeds of the government.

The "human wall" between Lingshui County and Chuzhou, and the massacre of Jiashan County, Bozhou a few days ago, was unbearable to hear about it.

Shi Cong heard it with passion.

He was personally involved in rebellion by the officers and soldiers, and he had already hated them to death.

On the contrary, for the Baishan Army, perhaps because of the same hatred of the enemy, he always had a good impression of him.

Otherwise, I would not want to listen to Huo Wu’s advice to go to Bozhou, and I would not want to sign up for the exam today.

When Huo Bao came in, Shi Congru immediately stood up and said, "My benefactor, can you allow me to join the army?"

He was originally a child of the martial arts family, and he was more willing to do martial arts.

He had thought about it and followed the Chuzhou army well. In the Jinling area, he asked the Huo family father and son to send someone to Jinling to pick up his mother to Hezhou, and he had no worries.

Huo Bao shook his head and said, "There is no hurry to do this... Go back and you have a letter to Mr. Shi, and then talk about this matter..."

Shi Jin's attitude has always been unclear, but he has good intentions towards the Huo family's father and son.

It would be better for him to choose by himself. It would be unkind to use Shi Cong to pull him into the water.

Shi Cong was stunned at first, then was ashamed and confused.

Forgot my cousin.
