Five days later, the county government of Xu Wuxian County sent Zu Fan to Zujiazhuang and summoned Zu Zhao, Zu Li, Zu Ling and others to inquire about the thief that day.
In the past few days, the matter of the children of the ancestral family crossing the county to seek thieves has spread as early as Xu Wu and Lingzhi counties, and it has even caused a heated discussion in the county. First of all, the ancestral family has no official status after all, and it is a controversial matter to spontaneously organize a thief; Secondly, for the thieves of such a scale who have just entered the winter this time, it really makes people have to worry a little more.
On the third day after the incident, the ancestral family allocated two pieces of silver to compensate the families of the victims of the robbery, not only the children of the ancestral family, but also the rangers who came to help Anyang Pavilion. All the bereavement pensions are treated equally, the children of this sect and the Anyang Pavilion rangers are all the same amount of generous pensions, and those families with only men are compensated twice.
At the initiative of Zu Zhao, the ancestral family held a large funeral for all the children of the sect who sacrificed for thieves, and the coffin was unified in the ancestral mound forest, and the monks were invited to chant for more than 20 days. During the Tibetan period, the ancestral family set up more than 80 tables of banquets every day, cooked sheep and slaughtered cattle, and feasted on wine and meat, entertaining the guests who came to mourn. Many neighbors who are not close to each other on weekdays also come to join in the fun, and everyone knows that the ancestral family banquet is extremely rich, which is nothing more than a mournful face, and you can eat a big meal beautifully. This move is nothing else, while mourning the heroic souls, it also promotes the feat of the ancestral family to beg the thief.
To a certain extent, the momentum of the ancestral family's night riding to suppress thieves is spread by holding banquets for days.
Regardless of whether the ancestor family's move to beg for thieves is quite controversial, it is precisely because of the reputation that Zu Zhao, Zu Ling and others were invited to the county government, and the officials of the county government were all very respectful. Although the ancestral family has a great business and is respectful on weekdays, it is obvious that they are more attentive in their attitude today.
After the main hall, I came to the small living room in the back garden.
Zu Zhao and the others drank half a cup of tea here first, and Chen Xianjun rushed over unhurriedly. After a polite courtesy, they each sat down, and Chen Xianjun asked the servants to serve a new round of tea, and while drinking tea, they chatted with some pleasantries, but the topic quickly turned to business. Chen Xianjun did not hide anything, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter.
With a long sigh of hot tea, Chen Xianjun's face was constricted, and he gradually became serious, and said: "A few days ago, the eldest prince personally led the clan to Lingzhi County to break the thieves and thieves, eliminate harm for the people, and make the county a lot of glory."
Zu Zhao smiled indifferently and said modestly: "Within the righteousness, within the matter, the seven-foot man of my ancestral family should not let it go."
Chen Xianjun said with emotion: "I came to visit the day before yesterday, and I had to sigh in order to pay my respects to the thieves and righteous people. The ancestral sons and daughters defend their homeland, regardless of their lives, but they can sing and cry, which is really admirable.
Zu Zhao replied: "On that day, there was also an inscription from the brothers in the clan who sacrificed for the sacrifice of the lord of Lao County, and they will be honored to receive it." My generation has been proud of this, and I will never let down the love of the county lord.
For this sycophancy, Chen Xianjun felt very useful, and he stroked his beard and laughed for a while.
At this time, Zu Ke on the side swallowed a cup of hot tea, and said with a depressed look: "Hmph, I waited for the righteousness to suppress the thieves, and I made people and efforts, and broke these relatives and brothers, but in the end, I still made wedding dresses for others." Hmph, the thief who kills a thousand knives is really more hateful than those thieves!
Hearing this, the atmosphere in the small hall suddenly became grim. Zu Fan took a sip of tea, put down his wine glass heavily, and subconsciously glanced at Zu Ke, but did not speak.
After laughing for a while, Chen Xianjun restrained his emotions again, recovered his solemn face, and said in a matter-of-fact manner: "Speaking of which, there is indeed a lesson to be learned in this matter, even if the ancestor is a righteous thief, but there should be a long-term plan in advance." What's more, before the incident, General Zu had invited his official to discuss it, but the plan of action that had been agreed upon was put aside because of the eldest prince's whims, so that there were many inconveniences now. Zu
Zhao and the others were not stupid, seeing that Chen Xianjun suddenly changed his face and said these words in such a tone, where did he not understand the true intention of the other party's heart. Zu Ke was in a bad mood, but at this time, in the face of Chen Xianjun's almost falling into a well, his face was naturally even more ugly, if it weren't for Zu Fan's frequent glances on the side, he was afraid that he would explode on the spot. After all, Chen Xianjun is not as good as Wang Xianjun, and he still has to be polite to his own land.
Chen Xianjun scooped up a bowl of tea from the teapot, filled Zu Zhao's teacup, and said quietly: "A few days ago, the county government sent an official document, and it was decided to negotiate with the local garrison to assist in suppressing the thieves this time. At that time, with the strength of the two counties and the actions of the official army, it is expected that the thieves will not escape. It's a pity..."
Zu Ke couldn't help but complain: "Isn't Chen Xianjun afraid that when the officials and soldiers are transferred, the thieves have already heard the wind and fled!"
Chen Xianjun glanced at Zu Ke, a trace of displeasure flashed on his face, turned to look at Zu Zhao, and said slowly: "Eldest prince, this official has no other meaning, but just hopes to use this matter as a lesson." The
reason why Zu Zhao didn't speak in a hurry was to find out what Chen Xianjun was thinking about in his heart. He can now roughly see that this crackdown on the thieves could have been regarded as the joint efforts of the two counties to handle the case, in other words, the two counties also received the credit afterwards. Now it is precisely because of his unauthorized actions that he cannot achieve the distribution of merit according to the original plan, which naturally makes Chen Xianjun, who has always been speculative, very unwilling in his heart.
He took a sip of the tea bowl unhurriedly, his face was not waved, and he said in a positive voice: "Chen Xianjun, this time my ancestral family was bloody and begging for thieves, and in the end he never said that he had the approval of the county government. It can be said that there is nothing wrong with the thief sooner or later, the so-called plan is nothing more than a sketch test, the art of war cloud, the impermanence of soldiers, the impermanence of water, and those who are good at fighting soldiers will be good at changing with the situation. Therefore, the matter of begging for thieves is reasonable and reasonable, and no one is wrong. "
As far as the current situation is concerned, if even Chen Xianjun begins to blame the ancestral family for acting without authorization and mistaking a major matter, then this matter must be big or small, and it will even be a big disadvantage to the ancestral family. When the time comes, Wang Xianjun will fan the flames casually, and Chen Xianjun will add oil and vinegar here, even if the ancestral family has the ability to reach the sky, it will also fall into a difficult dilemma. On the contrary, if Chen Xianjun can be enlisted to target Wang Xianjun, the situation can be reversed at once.
In any case, Wang Xianjun's fabrication of facts is irrefutable, as long as he can hold on to this point, he will definitely be able to set things right. At that time, it will also bring back the corresponding benefits to Chen Xianjun, presumably Chen Xianjun will be able to distinguish the benefits and disadvantages.
After hearing these words, Chen Xianjun's eyes lit up, and then he returned to silence, and he said calmly: "The eldest prince's words, will there be some support?" The county government has already heard a detailed report on the matter, and Liu Yuanjun and the neighboring county Zhang County Jun have contacted the matter. Right or wrong, sooner or later, the conclusion is obvious, why say anything else?
Zu Zhao smiled: "The conclusion is obvious? I'm afraid not. Facts speak louder than words, and who better to know what happened that day than my ancestors' own thieves? Wang Xianjun has selfish intentions, and the sacrifices of my ancestors will never agree. Speaking of which, this matter should also be asked by Chen Xianjun to preside over justice.
Chen Xianjun squinted his eyes and hid behind the heat of the rising tea bowl, looking confused, and he was thinking about something. He naturally understood the intention of Zu Zhao's successive words, he had contacts with several elders of the ancestral family in the past few days, and the grandparents had mixed praise and criticism for Zu Zhao leading the team to beg for thieves, and of course the praise was Zu Zhao's bravery as a young man, and he broke the thief overnight, and he still did not go with the officials and soldiers according to the rules. In his opinion, Zu Zhao now hopes to eliminate all criticism and strive to restore the honor that the ancestral family deserves.
For him, he can also get benefits from it, and he will not let the dwarf winter melon surnamed Wang in the neighboring county be greedy for credit alone, not to mention that the dwarf winter melon surnamed Wang was originally sitting back and enjoying the success.
After taking a sip of tea slowly, a smile appeared on Chen Xianjun's serious face, and he said kindly: "Think about it carefully, Zu Gongzi's words are not unreasonable, facts speak louder than words, this time Zu Gongzi made a bloody effort, how can some treacherous people be opportunistic?" Although Lord Fujun is very worried about this matter, he believes that as long as the ancestor can clarify in person, there will definitely be a result.
Zu Zhao thanked him and said: "With Chen Xianjun's words, I was relieved in my heart.
Chen Xianjun then said: "If the official's guess is correct, there will be news from the county government in a few days." At that time, the official accompanied the eldest prince to Pinggang and tried to make the matter clear.
Zu Zhao smiled and said, "Thank you Chen County Jun Chengquan." Since the beginning of the horse robbery case, Chen Xianjun has worked hard, and this kindness will be remembered in his later life.
Chen Xianjun laughed meaningfully, and said abruptly: "Where is it, it's just following the rules." Zu
Zhao saw that this matter had been explained, Chen Xianjun would definitely not disobey this favor, presumably even the county government also hoped to fight for the merit of the thief, and today I have seen it, it is nothing more than Chen Xianjun deliberately putting on a score to test it. He got up and prepared to say goodbye, Zu Ling, Zu Li, Zu Ke and others also understood the purpose of today's conversation, so they didn't have this hypocrisy with Chen Xianjunbai, even if the other party was hypocritical and official.
At this moment, Chen Xianjun spoke again without hesitation: "Eldest son, don't forget to inspect the tenth day of the first month of this month, after all, it is the intention of the official, and I hope that the eldest prince will remember more."
Zu Zhao subconsciously glanced at Chen Xianjun, first expressionless for a while, then showed a sincere smile, bowed and said: "Thank you Lord Chen for your concern, I will live up to it in my later life." "
