On the road leading to Jiangling County, a carriage was speeding at full speed.
Several bailiffs followed behind him on horseback.
In the carriage.
County Magistrate Wu was excited, but the green-robed man opposite him had a solemn expression.
At this moment, the green-robed man thought of the scene before he left.
Last night, when he was about to set off for Jiangling, the Provincial Governor suddenly summoned him.
"Yi Chuan, you and I have known each other for more than twenty years. Fortunately, with your assistance, I was able to sit on the position of provincial governor. This was already the position of the governor of the border. If he moved forward, he would need to take a gamble. I've already gone 800 miles to the emperor. This is a big gamble. If you win, you go straight to the center. If he fails, he will live in Jingzhou forever. "So…"
The Provincial Governor paused and said seriously,"I don't think so."Yi Chuan, can I trust you?"
"Milord, it is the duty of loyalty to the monarch. Yi Chuan will never let you down."
"Good! Go to Jiangling and examine that child. If the child prodigy is a fake, kill his whole family. After that, he gathered the surrounding prefecture troops, took down the Jiangling County Order, and killed the rest of the county officials. The crime of deceiving the monarch was pushed to Wu Wenxuan if needed.”
The green-robed man immediately nodded.""Sir, what if the child prodigy is real?”
"Then, you do this…"
The Provincial Governor leaned over and instructed in a low voice.
The green-robed man's expression changed rapidly when he heard the follow-up arrangements.
In the end.
"Yes, my lord! I will definitely do it."
The
events of last night flashed through the man's mind.
He then raised his head and looked at the Jiangling County Magistrate in front of him.
"Brother Wenxuan, I have something to say to you. I wonder if I should say it?”
County Magistrate Wu was stunned for a moment before he laughed heartily."You and I are brothers, what's there that can't be said? Hurry up and tell me."
"It's like this: There's a young daughter in Provincial Governor Zheng's clan who has just turned seven this year. You also know that the Zheng family is a thousand-year-old family. It's very difficult for them to look up to ordinary people. "It just so happened that I came to Jiangling and saw an excellent child
…"
County Magistrate Wu suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted the other party.
He finally understood what this "superficial brother" meant. He was trying to steal the bride. No wonder Scholar Yi Chuan didn't say anything when he was in the village. He had already heard about the marriage of the Wu clan.
They want our Wu Clan to back down!
As long as he could convince himself, Chen An's mother, a commoner woman, was not worth mentioning.
"Impossible! I've already reached an agreement with Chen An's mother to get married. He would never back down. Brother Yi Chuan, don't mention this matter again, or don't blame your brother for cutting off your robe and breaking your friendship!”
"Uh, sever all ties?" The man in green smiled."Brother Wenxuan, don't you know the name of the Zheng family of Xingyang?”
"Of course I know! The Zheng family belonged to the five surnames of the Seven Sects, which had been passed down for thousands of years since the Han Dynasty. The Retired Emperor had once wanted to marry the princess to the Zheng family, but the Zheng family had flatly rejected him. However, Retired Emperor was helpless.”
County Magistrate Wu spoke in a deep voice about the horror of the "thousand-year-old family", and his heart was incomparably terrified.
"Haha! Since you know, why don't you help me? Perhaps we can do this. You take Chen An as your disciple and the Zheng family takes him as their son-in-law. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?”
County Magistrate Wu: "If you want to be beautiful, with Chen An's talent, who in the world can be your teacher? Asking me to be his teacher, isn't that making future generations laugh at my Wu clan? There's no room for discussion on this matter!"
At this moment, County Magistrate Wu was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
I also have a "F * ck", but I don't know if I should say it or not?
"Wenxuan, aren't you afraid of the Zheng Corporation's revenge?”The green-robed man was furious as he shouted in a deep voice.
Hearing this, County Magistrate Wu nodded.""I'm afraid, but the Wu clan also wants to take a gamble. If your Zheng family really wants to take revenge on me, I will immediately report to the new emperor. The new emperor had long been dissatisfied with the power of the aristocratic families. There was no one in the Central Plains who didn't know about this.”
The green-robed man was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
The Zheng family was not afraid of the emperor. The new emperor had just ascended the throne for three years. He hadn't even secured his position, so where did he get the confidence to suppress the aristocratic families?
The Zheng family was afraid of the other prominent families.
If the news was leaked and other aristocratic families got involved, it would be a huge problem.
Or perhaps, the emperor would join in the fun and bestow a marriage…F *
ck!
Thinking of this, the green-robed man's scalp went numb, and his head grew big.
Stabilize!
He had to stabilize himself!
It was easier to persuade the Wu clan than to persuade the entire world.
"Haha!"
The green-robed man laughed heartily."Wen Xuan is right. I've been presumptuous. Let's not talk about this matter for the time being!"
Hearing this, County Magistrate Wu nodded, but endless worries welled up in his heart.
'Not mentioning it for the time', did that mean that they still had to talk about it later? Next, the Zheng Corporation would probably be afraid that the Direct Line members would come!
The main family was in big trouble!
Sigh!
County Magistrate Wu sighed in his heart.
The carriage was silent for the rest of the journey.
No one said anything. It seemed that the friendship between the two 'superficial brothers' had been shattered today, and only a little face was left to support it.
Where did all this come from?
Just because of a child, a seven-year-old child!
Two
hours later.
When the carriage arrived at the county town, Magistrate Wu quickly got off the carriage and gave it to the other party before ordering the bailiffs to escort him.
People who were in the official career, even if they wanted to pull out a knife to kill the other party behind their backs, they would still smile when they met.
"I wish Brother Yi Chuan a safe journey!”
"Thank you, brother. I'm leaving! Farewell!"
"Farewell!"
Sitting in the carriage gifted by his "younger brother", the green-robed man quickly left the county town and headed toward the Jing Prefecture under the escort of the bailiffs.
Similarly.
County Magistrate Wu immediately turned around and ran towards the county office.
In the backyard of the county office.
"Madam! Madam!"
County Magistrate Wu shouted as soon as they entered the backyard of the county office.
Hearing the urgent shouts, the county magistrate's wife hurriedly walked out of the boudoir.
"Husband, why are you doing this today? Why are you so flustered?"
"Furen, did my brother not reply to my letter?”
"No! I didn't receive a letter today!"
"Hurry up! Prepare paper, ink, brush, and inkstone, and wait for me to write a letter home!”
Upon hearing this, Madam hurriedly instructed the servant maids to prepare a brush and ink.
In the study room.
County Magistrate Wu quickly wrote a letter.
[Second Brother!]
[Things are not good. The Zheng family of Xingyang is coming to snatch her son-in-law. Second Brother, hurry up and bring the girl over to get engaged. Come quickly, come quickly!"
He stopped writing and sealed the letter.
"Men! Send the letter back immediately!"
"Here!"
The servant took the letter and left quickly.
"Husband, what's wrong with you? Why did he become so strange after a trip to Xishan Village?”The county magistrate's wife was dumbfounded.
"Madam, you don't know: Today, Fu Yichuan went to Xishan Village and saw the child. After just two questions, he prostrated himself in admiration!”
"What?" Madam was shocked and exclaimed,"There's actually such a peerless prodigy in the world?”
"Yes!"
"I didn't have it before, but I do now!" County Magistrate Wu nodded heavily. He has already descended upon our Great Tang. It's that child, and he's in Creek Mountain Village! Based on my forty years of experience, this child will definitely become a great figure and enter the Azure Cloud. Even the heavens and earth will change color for him.”
Hiss!
Hearing such an extraordinary evaluation, the county magistrate's wife was stunned on the spot.
Dumbstruck!
