Chapter 1297 Just die the whole family

Officials do not communicate with each other, high and low are different.

Unless one's luck is very good, it is possible to be noticed by the higher-ups and promoted exceptionally.

This is simply a myth, forget it.

Of course, if they encounter someone or something that is obviously wrong, they will naturally not let it go, because once they let go and are found out, it will be their serious dereliction of duty.

But if it's just a little strange, they ignore it, it's no big deal.

Because even if someone checks after the fact, they can't find out their big mistake.

When gods fight, people at the bottom should be more cautious and don't get involved.

Even "officials" who are despised by officials are not something they can easily offend!

As for ordinary crimes, there are no scourges, just kill them, this is the way of the public to bully the weak and fear the hard.

Under the complicated eyes of the head catcher, the bullock cart passed smoothly, and went all the way, and gradually arrived at the slums in the east of the city.

Here the road becomes narrower and more uneven.

They are all paved with loess, but the streets outside the slums are repaired and maintained from time to time.

Even if it is for looking good, the above will not leave it alone.

But the slum area is a place where the nobles will not come. It looks dirty and messy beyond 01:30, and there are occasional piles of garbage on both sides of the road.

The bullock cart moved forward, and the two people sitting in the carriage, their bodies would freeze suddenly due to the body of the carriage from time to time, and they would jump along with it.

Qi Huashan rubbed his lower back, raised the curtain of the car and looked out.

"This place is not much different from the countryside." He couldn't help but sigh with emotion after seeing everything.

He has been to this kind of place in the past, but he really didn't see it so carefully today, which made him feel touched.

Gao Qian said lightly: "The poorest place in the city is like this."

Anyway, not to mention officials and wealthy businessmen, even people with better family backgrounds moved away early if they could.

After all, when an area is populated by poor people, the issue of law and order alone is enough to make people feel uneasy.

However, the oxcart that Gao Qian and Qi Huashan were riding in looked like it wasn't something ordinary people could ride in, so someone from afar took a look at the oxcart and looked away lazily.

From the avenue, turn to the right again, turn into a narrower road, continue to go deeper inside, then turn a few more turns, and finally reach a place, before getting out of the ox cart, I heard a burst of crying from It came faintly from outside.

At this time, it was gradually getting dark, the oil lamp was on, and the bullock cart stopped at this moment. The two people in the bullock cart listened carefully, and finally understood what the people in the small courtyard next to them were crying about.

It is said to be a courtyard, but it is actually very dilapidated. The bullock cart is parked outside the courtyard, and when the curtain is opened, you can see a dilapidated wooden door with "patches" on it.

Such a family who can't even afford a good wooden door is really poor.

And such a family, who was not considered wealthy at all, encountered a new problem when the house leaked and it rained all night.

"The Wu family..." Qi Huashan heard what the people inside were talking about, and knew about this family.

Qi Huashan knew each other.

The grandfather of the Wu family died in battle with the Taizu. He belonged to a hundred households. Unfortunately, he died early, so there was no official award for shelter.

Only the father is employed on a business trip, while the son is studying, so he can make ends meet. Although he is not rich, he is barely decent. In winter, he can have firewood for heating, which is the best in this poor area.

But three years ago, his father died in the line of duty while catching thieves, leaving behind three mothers and sons, who originally had a share of sympathy food, but now, the imperial envoy and grandson checked the food and announced the abolition of the pension ration.

There was no food left at home, so we cried bitterly.

Qi Huashan blinked, a little hesitant: "Isn't this what we did?"

It seems that someone was sent to beat him with a whip very early: "By the order of the grandson, the pension is stopped."

All sinful things, including excessive expropriation, should be entrusted to the superior officials. This is the local way.

Gao Qian smiled: "We did it, and we also selected the second generation of loyal and poor people, and they are still scholars. Otherwise, how can we use righteous people?"

"Righteous man?" Qi Huashan murmured, suddenly trembling, he understood a bit, this is to make this Wu Wei die as a righteous man.

He was a little chilled, but also a little confused: "But this Wu Wei is a scholar, right?"

There is a saying that one who is useless is a scholar.

That's a bit of an exaggeration, but it's not without reason.

At least, when a scholar can only study and can't do other work before he gets fame, he is really a useless person in the eyes of others.

And a young scholar has another characteristic, that is: he has no strength to fight.

At least, this Wu committee is definitely not the "righteous man" in Qi Huashan's imagination.

The "righteous men" in the story are basically Kongwu powerful and righteous, right?

What can a young scholar do?

Gao Qian shook his head, this Qihuashan, I still don't understand!

"Kong Wu is powerful? Those are all desperation, no amount of death is enough to move people!"

"Only the sacrifice of a scholar who is powerless can move the world's scholars!"

Seeing that Qi Huashan was still half-understanding, Gao Qian said, "Look at this!"

This is a letter.

There are lights on the bullock carts, but the light is very dim and glows faintly, which is a bit eerie. Qi Huashan saw the calligraphy at a glance, revealing a great atmosphere.

This big popularity is very false, but after being an official for a long time, it really writes differently from others.

Qi Huashan couldn't help jumping in his heart, he saw that this was only one page, he read it hard, and it read:

"The Taisun's rebelliousness will cause great disasters, but the gentry can not break their lives, the world is so big, how many people are there?"

"However, Wu Wei was born in the countryside, and he was born as a child, and he was not supported by counties and counties. However, according to the teachings of "Poems" and "Books", he fought with anger, aroused righteousness, and disregarded death. huh?"

"The tomb of Aisi has its own stone, and as a record, it also shows the importance of life and death, and the importance of a righteous man is more important than the community."

"Is this the tombstone?"

Qi Huashan's heart was chilled, he was engraved on the tomb before he died?
He took the letter, read it carefully, and when he saw the bottom, he saw the signature below.

"Lady Ximing?"

Qi Huashan knew that since so many arrangements had been made in advance for this matter, the person who signed Layman Ximing must not be an ordinary person.

He didn't know him, so he asked, "Who is this Layman Ximing?"

Gao Qian glanced at Qi Huashan speechlessly, thinking that Qi Huashan was pretending to be stupid, but found that the confused look on this guy's face was real, this Qi Huashan really didn't know Layman Ximing!
"This is Mr. Pei's nickname, don't you know?" Gao Qian couldn't help shaking his head: "You are actually somewhat related!"

If it wasn't for this relationship, how could I communicate with him.

With Qi Huashan's level of education, he didn't even know what to say.

"Ah, it's my lord's nickname!"

Qi Huashan really didn't expect that this Layman Ximing was actually Mr. Pei's nickname.

But when I think about it, this is Mr. Pei's nickname, which is quite reasonable.

After all, in order to create a big public opinion, it is impossible that there are no heavyweights jumping out.

Others are not qualified enough to jump out, Mr. Pei's current status and status among scholars are just right, just right.

When Qi Huashan thought that it was written by Mr. Pei, he couldn't help but read it again carefully.

Gao Qian didn't bother to talk to him anymore, and said directly to the servant driving the car: "You send this letter, and the people inside will naturally understand."

"Yes!" The servant went away in response, and footsteps were heard in the night.

"Dong dong dong."

"anyone there?"

Although people outside knew that there were people inside and heard the cries inside, the servant who delivered the letter still walked over and knocked on the door.

Gao Qian and Qi Huashan didn't even get out of the bullock cart, but just sat in it, raised the curtain and looked towards the gate of the courtyard.

For the time being, no one came to open the door, Gao Qian looked away, and looked at Qi Huashan again.

Seeing that Qi Huashan still half understood, he had no choice but to say clearly: "With the inscription on the tomb of the old man, this family doesn't want to be this righteous man, so it's okay."

"You really don't want to be that?" Qi Huashan couldn't help asking.

What is a righteous man?

That must be a person who died a heroic death, a person who was arranged to die a long time ago.

Is anyone really willing to die?
That Wu committee should be young, right?

Is a young person really willing to sacrifice his life to be a righteous man?

If Qi Huashan were to make this choice, he would definitely not be willing.

Gao Qian smiled again, leaned back on the mat casually, and said: "It is his honor to let him be a righteous man, let him die, and make everyone happy."

"If you're really shameless, the whole family will die."
