Caring About Fast Wear Life
Chapter 74: His Royal Highness the Prince, demoted to commoner 6
After receiving the letter from his father, Wan Zhiming sent an entourage to Guojiazhuang to recover the imperial decree, and continued to live in the county government office.
Wan Zhiming fell in love with Wen Bowen's daughter Wen Wanxiu and wanted to take people away, expressly hinting to Wen Bowen many times, but Wen Bowen found various reasons to fool him.
Wan Zhiming told Wen Bowen about this again today, and his tone was much tougher than before.
It is clear that I see your daughter as a blessing to your family, I will bring her back to the house, and there will be another way for your family in the future, why not do it."
"Wan Zhanshi, it is of course my daughter's blessing to be seen by you, but you also know that my daughter is still young and has not yet reached the age of 笄, so you don't have to wait for a few more years."
"It's okay, I like small, take it back and wait for her to grow up." Wan Wen played with the fan in his hand and said casually.
Hearing this, Wen Bowen's temper was almost out of control. This beast, his daughter is only twelve years old.
"No, it really won't work, Wan Zhanshi."
?"
Wen Xingyan, who originally wanted to bring tea to the house outside the house, heard the conversation between the two, his face changed dramatically, he held back his panic and went back, he went directly to his sister's room.
"Brother, what's the matter with you?" Wen Wanxiuzhen followed her nanny to learn how to stitch and saw her brother running over in a panic.
Wen Xingyan took the needle and thread from her sister's hand, put it aside, and supported her shoulder.
"Wanxiu, that man surnamed Wan still wants to take you back as a concubine. He is threatening our father in the house."
Hearing this, Wen Wanxiu burst into tears.
"What about brother, I don't want to go."
"Don't worry, Dad will definitely not give you to the other party, I'm afraid that kid will make other bad ideas."
"Remember to bring only simple clothes and nothing else except a small amount of silver."
"Master, where will Miss and I go out of Li County, we are not familiar with each other outside."
"I heard that Guojiazhuang is recruiting workers, and the children of workers can study in the academy there, Qin Ma, you go to recruit workers, find a way to send Wanxiu to the academy there, wait for the surname Wan's gone, I'll go to Guojiazhuang to pick you up."
More than two hours later, an ox cart stopped on the cement road outside Guojia Village.
"The Guojiazhuang you are going to is here. If you go to the village and ask anyone, you should know how to recruit workers. Guojia Village is very short of manpower. My daughter is also working in that soap factory. There are three taels of silver every month." The old man who was driving the car called for the people in the car to get off.
Wen Wanxiu, dressed as a boy, pulled her nurse and looked at this strange place timidly. At this moment, she saw a little girl walking on a plank from a distance, followed by a shouting little boy.
"Xiaoyu, you are too fast, wait for me." Liu Hongyan stepped on his own labor and followed behind, passing the crowd of bullock carts that had just come down, he saw at a glance the people in the crowd. Extraordinarily beautiful little boy.
He touched his face, thinking that Xiaoyu likes beautiful boys, he is not very happy.
"Does your family come to work in Guojiazhuang? It's better to go home with such thin skin and tender meat."
"Liu Hongyan, what are you dawdling about? Ma will be finished in the morning, and she will have class in the afternoon, so she will be skating a lap at most."
"Okay, here we go."
After the two left, several others were talking.
"What are these two children stepping on, how can they still slide with their feet."
"Looks like a piece of wood on wheels."
Wen Wanxiu looked at her nanny. She was questioned by the boy just now, so she was afraid that the other party would find out that she was a girl, but fortunately she didn't find out.
Mother Qin could recognize some characters, so she chose it easily, because she brought a child and was assigned a small single-room dormitory.
Then it's not unnecessary for them to make men's clothing, and finally they simply put women into the academy.
After entering the academy, Liu Hongyan realized that the beautiful boy he saw that day was actually a woman.
Time goes back to the day when Wen Wanxiu went to Guojiazhuang.
Wan Zhiming didn't have a good talk with Wen Bowen that day because of Wen Wanxiu's affairs, he walked away angrily, went back to the room and lost his temper, smashing everything that could be smashed in the room.
Wan Zhiming, who calmed down, sneered, "There is nothing that I can't get to Wan Zhiming."
Wan Zhiming took the guards to visit Wen Wanxiu's room at night, and wanted to get some raw rice to cook cooked rice, but he went to bed and found that it was Wen Wanxiu's brother lying on the bed, and Wen Wanxiu was taken by the other party I don't know where to hide.
This can make Wan Zhiming angry. He slapped Wen Xingyan on the bed in a single game.
And let the guard with him punch and kick Wen Xingyan and ask Wen Wanxiu where he went.
But Wen Xingyan just gritted his teeth and didn't say anything. When Wen Xingyan was almost beaten to death by Wan Zhiming, Wen Bowen, who heard the movement, arrived with someone and saw that his son was beaten in an immature form, and he didn't know his life or death. , Wen Bowen's temper was unbearable at all.
"Wan Zhiming, don't be too much, your Wan family is powerful, but the old man has been in Lixian for ten years, and it's not that he has no power, you have to dare to touch my son again, you Believe it or not, I will let you out of Li County."
"Old man, are you joking? I'm still moving, what do you dare to do." With that, Wan Zhiming kicked Wen Xingyan, who was lying motionless on the ground, to Wen Bowen's feet.
The expression was very arrogant, "My father is the minister of military affairs, my sister is the queen, my nephew is the prince, and my brother-in-law is the current saint! You dare to touch me?" ."
Looking at his son's tragic situation, he knew that Wan Zhiming would not let his family go, and that Wen Bowen did not hesitate at all.
"You dare!" Seeing that the other party was real, Wan Zhiming panicked, hiding behind the guard and shouting.
But Wan Zhiming was here to do something bad tonight, so he only called the closest bodyguard, and the others stayed in the guest room, which was still a long way from Wen Wanxiu's boudoir, just to catch up It also takes a while to come.
That night, people in Lixian County were awakened by a loud noise. It turned out that the county government was on fire.
The fire was extinguished the next day, and only after reading the notice of the county government did I know that it turned out that it was Wu State scout who attacked the county government at night and assassinated the distinguished guests who lived in the county government. All the guests and guards were killed. The county magistrate's family was also affected. The magistrate's son was seriously injured and has yet to wake up.
Of course, the concern of pretending to have a broken leg in Guojia Village also received this news, and asked Wang Wu to send someone to check some details of the matter.
After Wang Wu left, he was concerned about leaving Song Kangping in the room to talk about things.
"Master, I received a report from my subordinates that a new woman recruited in the village soap workshop behaved abnormally. At first, she said she brought a boy, but the child was admitted as a girl. The girl looks like a girl. She is very beautiful and stands out in the crowd. Although the middle-aged woman works quickly, she doesn't have any calluses on her hands, and she doesn't look like she was born into a poor family."
"First press the watch and don't move, and observe it secretly to find out the details."
Because of Wan Zhiming's special status, he died in Lixian, but the road from Lixian to Baocheng is far away, and the road is difficult to walk. It is a month later when the prefect of Baocheng receives the news. I came to investigate for a few days but nothing suspicious happened, temporarily blocked the Lixian county government office, controlled the relevant people, and expedited the report of the case.
Wanyangwen in Licheng received the news of his son's death in Lixian, and he was furious. This is his only son. He only got such a treasure at the age of thirty-five.
I was about to mobilize people to Lixian County, but a big event happened in Chen Guo. The third prince, Li Chang, who went to the front line, gathered some generals on the front line and directly occupied the front line city as a stronghold Self-proclaimed king.
When Huang Chen heard the news, his anger was in a rush, and his health was getting worse. The fourth and fifth princes who were still in Licheng were also working in secret, and the crown prince was at stake.
He could only let a trusted man around him go to Lixian to investigate his son's death, and he stayed in Licheng to consolidate his grandson's crown.
It has been more than a month since the county seat of Lixian County was burned, Baocheng convenient sent a special envoy to temporarily act on the county’s official duties. The original county magistrate was temporarily detained for the crime of dereliction of duty. From one monitoring point, the entire Li County was under martial law, and people entering and leaving the city were strictly interrogated.
Because of the martial law in Li County, it is very inconvenient to enter and exit, and many villagers in the surrounding area are too lazy to go to the county seat, and directly take the surplus agricultural products to Guojiazhuang for sale.
There is also a grocery store, specializing in purchasing agricultural products, where you can sell excess grain and buy threshing machines, soap, vegetable oil and other products at low prices.
Threshers are more expensive, but Guojiazhuang can accept grain deductions in installments, which is very popular with surrounding farmers.
Guo Daliang's family is already preparing the dowry gift for his wife after the new year, because I remember Zhu Daniu said that he wanted a sewing machine, Guo Daliang went to his little cousin about this matter, and he still carried the family's cash in his hand. Made jelly.
Care just came out of the school laboratory and met Guo Daliang at the school gate.
"Little cousin, you finally came out. I've been waiting for you here for a while. This is the jelly made by my mother. It's delicious. I specially brought you a copy."
Don't let Caring refuse, Guo Daliang put the basket with jelly in Caring's hand.
Care but can only accept, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"That's right, can you give me a sewing machine?"
The entire Guojia Village only has one machine for his family and the younger cousin’s family. The other machines are used in the sewing room by everyone. He wants another machine.
"It's not for me, I'll prepare one for my future daughter-in-law."
"There is not much iron in the village now. I'm afraid there will be a few more iron smelting workshops in the next year."
"No hurry, just leave one for me when you leave."
On the day of Guo Daliang's marriage, Caring prepared a sewing machine as a gift.
"Li Chen is dead?"
"Yes, sir, according to our intelligence officer in Baocheng, now that Li Tai has ascended the throne, the third prince occupied the two cities in the west early in the morning, and after the death of the old emperor, he immediately Self-proclaimed emperor, the other two princes also refused to accept the new emperor, and secretly moved a lot."
"There is also news that the Wen County magistrate's family has been escorted to Beijing, and the new magistrate of Li County will arrive soon."
“Where are the Wen County magistrate’s family being escorted to now?”
"It's almost out of the treasure city."
"Notify outsiders to rob people back, and then in the name of Wen County magistrate express that they do not recognize the new emperor's rule and separate Li County."
"Okay, I'll do it now." Finally, when the day came, his son was about to take action, and Song Kangping felt a little excited.
Wu Guodong Palace.
"Report to Your Highness, I have received the latest information."
In the innermost part of the hall, a man of about twenty-seven or eighty-year-old was reading a book, and when he heard the report coming from his hand, he didn't lift his head, only said, "Read."
"The old emperor of Chen State, Li Chen, died, and the new emperor, Li Tai, succeeded him. Several other princes occupied the land and established themselves as emperors. Officials in several cities expressed that they did not accept the rule of the new emperor, and the state of Chen was in chaos. ."
There was also a middle-aged man sitting on the side in the hall, in his early forties, with a strong back, when he heard the news, he excitedly said: "Your Highness, this is the time for our full-scale attack. "
"No, wait. The situation is not chaotic enough. The camel is bigger than the horse. General Fu, don't worry, there will be a day when you will take action."
The person who spoke in the palace was the Prince of Wu, Zhao Yi. Wu Huang died a few years ago, and although he has not yet ascended the throne, the real power of Wu is now basically in his hands.
Care has long since found out that the daughter of the county magistrate Wen is studying in Guojiazhuang Academy as a worker's child. She has not made it clear that when the Wen family is rescued back to Lixian, she will let the family stay there. Guojiazhuang reunion.
"My son, thank you for saving your life." Wen Bowen came to express his thanks after he settled his family.
"Really? I rebelled against the new emperor in your name."
"Young Master, I was originally a sinner. Besides, Chen Guo's **, the new emperor is not benevolent, so what if he rebelled."
Speaking of this, Wen Bowen's eyes were scarlet, thinking of the inhuman torture he suffered in the past few months, his heart could not calm down.
With Wen Bowen, who is familiar with things in Lixian County, I quickly controlled Lixian County in my own hands. Lixian County is a small place, and its population is not as good as the treasure next door. City, but it also has the advantage that it is closed and backward, and people outside cannot notice it for a while, so there is a chance to breathe.
Six years, no, less than six years, the emperors of the Chen Kingdom killed each other during this period, and in the end only the most orthodox one remained, and the others died in this imperial power struggle, But before Li Tai was happy for a few months, he found out that the Wu State had already invaded the city, and Li Tai and the Wan family were all arrested.
For another four years, Emperor Zhao Yi of Wu State sent troops to attack the Xiongnu in the north, while cleaning up the local remnants of Chen State, rectifying the internal affairs of the country, and restoring vitality.
It started off well, but it got stuck in a small place called Lixian.
"What's the matter." Zhao Yi sat on the throne and asked the officials below.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the person we sent to Li County to seek safety has sent a message back."
"The magistrate of Li County is Wen Bowen, who has been operating in Li County for more than 20 years. He said that Li County can integrate into my country in the name of the county seat, but he wants the right to self-governance."
"Autonomy?"
"That is, Li County's officials, finance, military and other rights are all independent, not under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, they are selected and appointed by themselves."
The instrument does not cut the road.
"Your Majesty, the news that came back says that the records of Chen Guo's documents are wrong. It has a large population, estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands, and the life inside is not the same as outside."
"Oh, such a small county can squeeze so many people, what is the difference?"
"The letter said that people can ride on two wheels to run forward without manpower. The ground of the whole county is covered with slate without gaps. I can't step on the wet mud, and now there are soaps, soaps, matches, transparent mirrors, edible vegetable oils, toilet paper, candles, etc. on the outside world."
Speaking of this, the official pointed to the pendulum bell standing on the wall in the main hall, "And the objects called bells are all produced in Li County."
Hearing this man's words, the hall immediately started to discuss, these things have entered their daily life more than ten years ago, and many of them are not cheap.
In that case, how much money did Lixian County make for them in the past ten years?
"And they have something called electricity as a lamp, which illuminates the night in Lixian like day."
"The people we sent also said that the army of Wu State was pressing in, but Wen Bowen was very disapproving, only saying that the consequence of doing so would be to change the emperor of Wu State or change the name of the country, and it was not them who suffered. "
"Hey, this Wenbo's article is very big, he is a small county magistrate, he dares to make such a big talk, I don't know that our majesty is the one who dominates the world and drives the Xiongnu away. ."
Zhao Yi was also very angry when he heard the remarks, but he was not the emperor of the Chen State, and he acted arbitrarily. He decided to continue to understand Lixian's later policies.
In April, the weather is pleasant, and there are groups of people on the way from Baocheng to Lixian. Zhao Huai pretends to be a purchaser and follows these people. Zhao Huai is the younger brother of the emperor. Appointed to secretly investigate the situation in Li County.
Zhao Huai opened the curtains and looked out at the people who were going to Lixian. Most of them were women, young and old. , I don't know what they are doing in Li County.
The road from Baocheng to Lixian is a dirt road, but because more people have walked in recent years, the dirt road is compacted and there are no weeds.
Lixian County is too remote, Zhao Huai and the others walked on the carriage for three days before they reached the road barrier. Feeling that the team in front had stopped, Zhao Huai asked while raising the curtain of the car.
"Arrived?"
"Young master, not yet, there is a fence in front to check and ask us to get off."
After getting off the car, Zhao Huai saw a huge stone house in front of it. It was really too big. There were two floors that I didn’t know how to build. There were dozens of people with strange weapons on both sides. People stand on both sides of the wooden fence.
They were brought into the stone house, asked why they came to Li County, and their home address in Wu State, registered and issued a temporary identity sign, holding this sign and only in Li County for twenty days.
After checking, Zhao Huai followed a few entourages to drive past the wooden fence and continued onward.
After passing the wooden fence, Zhao Huai saw a stone road that stretched far into the distance. On this road, their carriage took another five days to reach the county seat of Li County.
No one left when empty.
"Master, Master, look, that is the legendary bicycle?" Zhao Wood knocked on the door of his prince, thinking he looked out.
Zhao Huai lifted the curtain of the car and saw several boys each riding a special lump whizzing past him.
He took a closer look and stared forward with the strength of his feet to let the iron car move forward.
"Find an inn to stay first."
After some inquiries, they went to the best inn in the county, Guojiazhuang Hotel.
This hotel was opened in the county seat by Guojiazhuang, and usually it is mainly handed over to Guo Daliang and his wife to help take care of it.
Watching outsiders, he hurriedly called Xiao Er to help the guests park the car, and went up to say hello.
“How many of you are staying at the hotel?”
Zhao Huai looked at the inn in front of him, and found that compared with some inns in the city outside, the style was different.
"The best of the three, now for five days."
"Okay, please show your ID, and I'll take you up after registration."
Zhao Huai asked Zhao Wu, who was beside him, to take out the temporary city entry certificates issued by him and hand them over to the other party.
Guo Daliang took over and was about to register when he saw that his cousin actually came back, he put down the pen in his hand and hurried out from the counter.
"A Xuan, you're finally back, you don't know these days when you're gone, no one can control the light rain, she's about to turn the village upside down."
"Take good care of her when you go back."
Because Guo Daliang's voice was really loud, Zhao Huai followed the voice and saw two people who were covered in mud and had messy hair, each carrying a large bag Entering this inn with walls painted in old white, the picture seems a little out of place.
The young man took off his mud-filled backpack and put it on the ground, saying, "Is there any hot water? I want to take a shower first, and talk to you later."
"Of course there is, I probably don't have a hotel. Don't worry about the best room. I'll get the keys for you and Uncle Wang." Guo Daliang ran to the counter and took out two keys, ready to hand them over My cousin was stopped by someone.
