Chapter 5
Xiuyun's brother's surname is Wei. Because of his clever words, he often helps people to make peace with things and win over business. He is called Wei Zuizi. Over time, no one knows his original name.
This guy can write and calculate, but his level is not very good. He once worked as an accountant for several days, and he made a lot of mistakes and was fired. However, he didn't know how to reflect on himself. He always felt that others had no vision and had no talent. As long as he was given a chance, he could become a high-ranking official, riding a horse, five or six people.
When he saw his sister come back with a child, he thought that his sister was not married, so who else could this child belong to the Guo family?
If the imperial court wants to destroy Guo Wei's family and secretly hide the descendants of the Guo family, that is a death sentence!
On the contrary, if you go to the court to give a speech, you will not only be able to make contributions and receive rewards, but you may also be able to rise to the top in an instant!
Wei Zuizi was desperate to take a gamble. Even when he saw his sister's body, he had no regrets at all. He worked harder.
On the third day, he roughly drew a circle of the route Xiuyun passed by, and then searched one by one. Although the method was rustic, he firmly believed that he could find it.
After finding many homes but failing, a large number of people appeared in front of me, and it seemed that there were almost hundreds of people!
What is this for?
"Are you going to rebel?"
"It's not rebellion, it's making rice!" An elderly beggar bared his yellow teeth and smiled, "If you have kind-hearted people give up porridge, we all come to drink porridge!"
"Save the porridge?"
Wei Zuizi wanted to laugh to the sky.
What a joke? The food is so expensive these days. In the past, who else has ever done porridge except the Guo family, it is obvious that it is a lie!
"I don't believe it, call the person who gave the porridge!"
He yelled loudly, and Ye Hua hurried over.
"Boy, is it you who gave the porridge?"
Ye Hua smiled and said, "It's my old lady. She made a wish to the Buddha a few years ago, saying that she could live together for four generations, so she rebuilt the temple and helped all over the world. This year, she really has a great grandson for the old lady. The old lady has come to fulfill her wish!"
Ye Hua pretended to be a servant, nodded and bowed, and it seemed that was the case. Chen Shi secretly stretched out his thumb from behind, and it came so fast that he would not blink without lying.
In the future, you must pay attention to this kid, who will definitely have the potential to become a bad person.
Chen Shi thought that these words could deal with Wei Zuizi. But how could he know that although Wei Zuizi was not very good, he was a knowledgeable and thoughtful person.
The leaves are as thin as bamboo poles, and their clothes are worn, but they are not like everyone else’s!
Even if you wish to give up the porridge, you can't live without an adult. Wouldn't you be worried about accidents?
The more he thought about it, the more suspicious Wei's mouth became. There must be something wrong. He suddenly laughed, "Okay, I want to do good deeds, I also want to drink a bowl of porridge!" He stepped into the crowd, and the yamen runners followed behind him.
Where is drinking porridge? It is obviously a mess.
The little thing is in the temple. If you are searched and you can't tell the origin clearly, it will be a bad thing.
Ye Hua was so anxious that his forehead was sweating. He had an idea and quickly shouted, "Old lady, is the porridge ready? Everyone is hungry!"
This throat worked very well. Ye immediately reacted and said in a hurry: "Okay, come and have a porridge!"
As soon as these words were said, the beggars who were so hungry that they held the bowls one after another, and pushed Wei's mouth aside, making him so angry that he had no choice but to do anything to deal with the group of people.
Ye Hua's lips curled up and continued to shout at the top of his throat, "Everyone is here to get the porridge, and I'll drink it all!"
All the beggars were moved, fearing that they would not be able to drink. Even after receiving the porridge, they drank all three sips. When they turned their heads, they came to queue up again. They formed a solid wall of people, blocking Wei Zuizi and others outside.
There are more and more beggars, and when they get together, the smell on their bodies makes people frown. Not to mention lice and fleas, they fall on their bodies, but they bite and suck blood.
Whoever saw them would not hide far away? Tan's head covered his nose and pulled Wei's mouth out. Wei's mouth was still unwilling to accept it. "Who can give up porridge these days? They must be unhappy!"
"I care about their evil intentions?" Tan Tou burst into anger and roared: "We are looking for Guo Wei's son. Have you ever seen anyone who is hiding someone and dare to come out to give up porridge? Are you impatient to live?"
What this person said really makes sense. Wei was speechless, and Tan Tou grabbed his neck and ran away.
"I finally escaped!"
Ye sighed secretly, tightened his hands and poured more and thicker into the beggar's bowl.
...
The porridge was stopped until the afternoon. Not only did it take for a bag of rice, Chen Shi bought three more bags, and he could only barely deal with it. The money given to the Ye family's grandchildren was actually used in this way to use it on the Guo family.
Since yesterday, she has not had a good sleep and is worried. After working for most of the day, Ye is in his seventies, and his bones seem to be dispersed. She barely hugged Mr. Guo and drank a bowl of rice paste. The old and the young all fell asleep.
Ye Hua was very tired, but he couldn't sleep, so he sat with his knees in his arms. Chen Shi was also worried and sat down again, continuing the topic during the day.
"I can kill people in the court! I want to join the army!"
He said his ideal, but Ye Hua didn't respond much, which was normal.
Born in troubled times, fools know that joining the army is one of the few ways out, that is, his unsatisfied uncle, so he dare not go to the army to make achievements, which makes people despise him.
Let’s look at Chen Shi’s body. He is big and thick at a young age. He is very strong. After years of training in the army, he may become a powerful general!
"Very good. There are recruiting soldiers everywhere anyway. When we were walking on the street, we saw recruitment notices!"
Chen Shi shook his head suddenly and cursed: "Even if I die, I will not be a minion for the foolish lord!" He said firmly: "I want to follow Marshal Guo and join him as a soldier. Seeing that the city gate is closed now, I can't get out, and I don't know if there is a chance..."
"You will definitely have a chance, and you will soon, believe me!"
Ye Hua blinked, looking confident.
Chen Shi didn't know where his confidence came from, and Ye Hua didn't want to say anything more. He stood up and looked out the window. The night was slightly cool, the sky was high, the stars were dense, and the depth was endless.
Ye Hua thought silently in his heart that the Guo family was dead, and the next step was that Liu Chengyou led his troops out of the city to be defeated and fled back in a panic. As a result, the civil and military officials in the city betrayed the emperor, the army died tragically, and the new king entered the city... Also, Feng Dao, the shameless prime minister who had served eight emperors, wanted to add a note to his resume. He could proudly claim that he had survived another dynasty. Then fill in a few prominent official positions on the screen and show off!
Ye Hua was very calm and silently calculated everything that was about to happen. He was particularly focused, with his eyes as if he could see through the deep night sky.
Chen Shi was staring at him. He felt that Ye Hua had a little temperament, very similar to his master. His master often looked at the stars in this way, and then calculated the fate of the officials of the dynasty, or even the emperor. He also said that he would become a general, with great might, great military achievements, and acquisition of his wife and children, and his descendants for generations. It would be a pleasure to think about it!
Could it be that Ye Hua, who is younger than him, also has the ability to see the secrets of heaven? Otherwise, how could he be so sure? Chen Shi was very conscious and did not ask too much. Anyone with ability has a little weird temper. It is better not to talk too much!
Slammed!
The bells and drums rang, and people shouted and the horses were neighing.
It's as if the sky collapses and the earth is broken!
Ye Hua's face changed wildly. The sleeping Ye family turned over and woke up in panic. The other beggars looked like frightened birds, looking outside in panic, and their hearts were about to jump out.
Chen Shi stepped forward, "I'll go out and have a look!"
“Be careful.”
After Ye Hua finished speaking, he quickly supported his grandmother and hugged Mr. Guo, and came to the base of the wall of the broken temple. A wall was separated by a wall, and there was a drainage ditch outside. Kaifeng City was next to the Yellow River, and it was severely flooded, so the drainage system was the most developed. Although it was far less dense than the Northern Song Dynasty, it was quite impressive. Ye Hua regarded the drainage ditch as his last hiding place, and had no choice, so he got into the ground. Of course, this was a last resort, and the smell of the sewer was not good.
Just like that, after waiting for a while, Chen Shi came back with his eyebrows horizontally, and was so angry.
"It's been collected again!"
"What? What are you recruiting tonight?" Ye was puzzled.
Chen Shi smiled helplessly, "Old Madam, it's better to catch people at night. If there is any movement in the daytime, why don't everyone run away? Where can I grab people and food?"
It turns out that the people of Kaifeng have learned to fight guerrilla wars with the yamen. Chen Shi continued: "The tyrant monarch must be in charge of the imperial army. The imperial guards should be dispatched, and they cannot be without food. All restaurants, inns, and tea shops in Beijing will pay for food! The minimum amount is 80 kilograms of steamed cakes, two stones of japonica rice, and 5 jin of money!"
"Crazy!"
Ye Hua only has these two words left to describe it.
Knock the bones and suck the marrow, exploit it excessively, and lose the hearts of the capital before going to war. It would be strange if you can win!
The change of dynasty is really close!
