Wang Pu in the late Ming Dynasty
Chapter 16
"When the Holy Monarch is in the country and there is no plague, how can there be cause and effect, let's find a headwind place outside to camp, it is safer. Wang Pu looked at the back of the prison army who had gone away, and said helplessly, he had heard of a great plague at the end of the Ming Dynasty, but the exact time of the outbreak was unknown, and it was this that was particularly terrifying. Along the way, whenever he saw a large number of corpses in front of him, he didn't dare to go, and looked for a small path to bypass it, so that it was delayed for many days, and the prison guard Huang Dahu was angry enough.
"The owner, do you want to defend yourself on the table, the surname Huang doesn't know how to slander us in the table, if we don't defend ourselves, it will seem to be weak-hearted, and we will suffer a little. Lin Changxing leaned forward and asked.
"Naturally, it is time to justify, and by the way, I will give another suggestion to the imperial court, saying that we have encountered many hungry and rotting corpses on the way, polluting the water source, and fearing that it will cause a plague. "
Tongguan Wei guerrilla Pang Quan a pair of small eyes on the eight-character beard grunting, aiming at Wang Pu's three hundred heavy armor infantry all kinds of bad feelings, from a distance is only a little surprised, to see the iron armor closer, smooth as a mirror, straight out of the cold luster, actually fucking made of steel, the material is only afraid of not losing to their own saber, people are more angry than people.
"The king's temperance came from afar, and the contemptible people should do their best to be the landlord, and they have already prepared wine and food. "
"No need, I don't like to socialize, and besides, when I'm out on the road, I shouldn't drink. "Wang Pushi was afraid that when he went into the city to eat and drink, he unfortunately contracted the plague.
"This group of armor soldiers under Wang Jie's hands is a bit rare, all of them are bears and tigers, and they are usually only afraid of having a good meal of fish and meat to have such a body. Pang Quan grinned.
Thanks to the court's willingness to pay a full amount of silver, Wang also filled in all his belongings. Wang Pu smiled proudly.
"If the king does not give up moderation, there is a group of women from good families under the lowly subordinates who can sell and exchange some iron armor with the temperance lords. Pang Quan said with a bitter face.
Wang Pu looked back at Pang Quan with a puzzled expression, not understanding how this colleague could fall into human trafficking, he was also a third-grade military general, and he was guarding a dangerous place like Tongguan, even if the imperial court couldn't open the pot, it would try its best to squeeze out some food and pay for Tongguan Wei.
"In recent years, a large number of displaced people have fled from the Guannai, and many women have stayed in the disdainful places after not walking far. Pang Quan was a little embarrassed to justify, life in troubled times is not worth much, in the past, a woman from a good family sold her body for at least fifteen taels of silver, and she could buy a woman from a good family from the displaced people who passed through Tongguan for only three or five taels, this is a big business opportunity falling from the sky, how can you miss it with Pang Quan's shrewdness.
"My iron armor is one hundred and twenty pairs, and I will exchange it with you for ten adult women from good families. Wang Pu is somewhat interested in this business, a large number of his soldiers are still single, assign wives to them, and establish a set of honor and pension mechanism for the families of fallen soldiers, so that soldiers are not afraid of death, and they will be invincible on the battlefield from then on.
"Five for that. "
"No, change ten. "
"Wang Jiezhi doesn't know, these are all women from good families, and some of them are even good-looking, pick them out and sell them to big families with a little training, twenty taels or thirty taels are not expensive. "
"Is it really that good, take me to see it. "
At this time, in the mountainous area of Pinglu County, Shang Gongde worked as a miner in the copper mine for a month, and he could receive his salary today, and he thought in his heart: he should send some money back to his family. Out of some intuition, today he always pays attention to the movement outside the mine, and sure enough, Shen Shi has a group of people leading a few horses into the gate, the leader is obviously from a rich background, white and fat, and covered in silk, Shang Gongde's sharp eyes can see at a glance that this person's left hand is disabled, missing five fingers, and his heart suddenly chuckled, remembering the rumors that the miners had gossiped about the Fu family poisoning the robbers, could it be that person is the unlucky second young master of the Fu family.
Is it for the purpose of seizing this copper mine to mint coins privately, no, the secret thief is a big crime to destroy the door, just for a little profit is really incredible, this must be a big case involved.
That night, Shang Gongde asked for a three-day leave on the grounds that the lady in the family had no rice to cook, and he was anxious to take the money back. The next day, there were six people with him, all of whom wanted to send money home, but except for Shang Degong, the remaining five were all from the mountains.
"Do you see, it's us who have taken care of the family. Shang Gongde pretended to gossip inadvertently.
"What's strange, the Fu family is an evil ghost, and you can meet it anywhere. Someone gritted his teeth angrily.
"I noticed a few days ago that the people who collected the ore were all Fujia farmers. "
"This copper mine originally belonged to the Han family, and now even the Han family's house has been restored, the Han family is called a miserable, God is not long-sighted, the good people are not rewarded, and the wicked live for a thousand years. "
Shang Gongde listened to these words, and secretly calculated: The Fu family seems to have done a lot of evil, there should be many enemies, and if you are not familiar with the place, it is good to find an enemy of the Fu family as a helper to get twice the result with half the effort.
In the rain at night, Fu Wudou sat on the side of the threshold, staring at the dim shadows of the trees outside the courtyard, and really missed his wife in his heart. It is said that there are many sons and many blessings, and his wife gave birth to three babies, and he gave up his life to support them, is it worth it? Fu Wudou occasionally thinks that if he gives birth to one less, the food will be enough to eat, and his wife will not be kicked to death by Master Fu.
Just when he was annoyed by having an extra baby, he suddenly heard the sound of a person walking faintly outside the hospital.
"Who. "
"It's raining, borrow a place to hide from the rain. "
"Cheng, come in. "
The person who came was vigorous, the body was strong, and he couldn't say if he knew martial arts, Fu Wudou was a little scared, but then he thought about it, his family is just this little belongings, what is there to rob, they all say that the thief army does not rob the poor, if it is really a benefactor in the thief army.
"The mountain breeze at night is cold, and the little old man brewed some wine at home, and a few sips can warm up his body. Fu Wudou took a jar out, put it on the table, and lit the oil lamp with fire folds, thanks to the thief army, this year the government did not come to urge taxes, there is a lot of surplus grain at home, brewed more than ten catties of rice wine, often stolen by the greedy baby to drink, had to be locked in the cabinet.
"There is a treat, my brother is a miner from the north, and he is passing through here on his way home. Shang Gongde licked his dry lips, grabbed the wine cup and drank it all.
"Oh, that copper mine has opened a number of new mines recently, and many people have been invited, and the wages are not low. "
"Yes, the salary is not low, some of them are still locals, I heard them say that the Fu family is a bully, and they beat the mother-in-law of the Fu Wu Dou family to death. Shang Gongde asked someone on the hillside during the day to find out the location of Fu Wudou's house, and waited until night before entering the village.
"You, you're not passing by. It's coming for me. Fu Wudou took a step back.
"Yes, I have a way to get your revenge. Shang merit is not denied.
"There is no hatred, my mother-in-law was not beaten to death, she would die of starvation if she fell like that, she starved to death. "
"Don't you want revenge. "
"Yes. If you want to say that you don't want to be a lie, but how can he take revenge, and thinking of the ruthlessness of the Fu family, Fu Wudou suddenly became timid, and hurriedly changed his words: "No, I don't want to." "
"It's not for you to fight with your life, the Fu family has colluded with the thief army, and there is something abnormal in the past month. "
"I don't know, guest, let's go, I have no enmity with the Fu family. Fu Wudou pleaded bitterly.
"You can't trust me, then look at this waist card, I am the brocade guard of the imperial court, if this errand is done well, I will definitely promote you to be a general banner if I am promoted, follow me, and you can take revenge, and you have an official to do. Shang Gongde showed a waist card of a hundred households in brocade clothes.
"Official. As if touching a poisonous insect, Fu Wudou suddenly got up and took two steps back, his eyes full of fear.
"You already know my identity, and if you don't help me, you'll have to go to court. Seeing that this little people were scared, Shang Gong proudly threatened him.
"Official, official, don't be joking, I, I'm just a grass citizen, I don't understand anything, and I don't usually go out. "Hearing that he was going to eat a lawsuit, Fu Wudou almost peed his pants, for the little people, the county government prison is a living hell, in previous years, people in the village were often arrested for tax arrears, the officials in the yamen used all kinds of torture to serve, and the families of prisoners usually had to sell and borrow money everywhere to rescue people. But even if he comes out alive, he is no longer human, and he will not die after surviving the conscription, his body and bones are not as good as before, and his family will still be ruined in the coming year.
"What is going on in the Fu family, you can't hide it from the people of the same village. You can go and help me inquire, and you don't need much ability. "
"Yes, yes, what does the official know, Xiaomin will inquire by himself, no, don't dare to slack off. Fu Wudou's tongue was knotted in fear.
"Then I'll pass by here in five days, you'd better get a little bit of news, and ask if there are any suspicious people from other places who have come to Fujia, where Fujia's copper mine is being transported, and those people who are involved in escorting the goods, all this news is effective, and when you make a meritorious service, I will give you half of the reward." After Shang Gongde finished speaking, he turned his head and noticed a little baby in the back room with a probe in the back room, so he had a plan.
He got up and walked towards the baby, and said, "Your mother is dead, and she was beaten to death by the dog in the Fu family." Your father doesn't dare to take revenge, don't you dare. "
"I, I dare to take revenge, I want to avenge my mother. That baby really couldn't bear the agitation method, stood up with tears in her eyes, and gritted her teeth hatefully.
"Good, good, if there is revenge, it will be avenged, this is called a man. "
"I know. Wa'er suddenly said with a smug face.
"Don't talk nonsense, little kid. Fu Wudou hurriedly stopped in the back.
"Know what. Shang Gongde turned his head and glared at Fu Wudou, making him shrink in fright, and then turned back to ask.
"The backer of their return is Wang Jie, the leader of the official army. The second lady of the Fu family made the little wife of the man, and the Fu family talked to people everywhere about this, and she was very proud. "
"Temperance is an official name, that person should be Wang Pu, amazing, amazing, the court general actually fornicated with thieves, this is a big case of rebellion, now we can make a great contribution, not to mention that we will reward a thousand households, hahahaha. Shang Gongde was completely immersed in the joy of being promoted and making a fortune, and he didn't notice that Fu Wudou behind him was looking at him in horror.
Shang Gongde dropped a sentence: You wait for my good news. He stepped out of the house, he wanted to go back to the county seat as soon as possible and report this shocking case. The so-called speed is not reached, the mountain road is rugged, and the road in the dark is accidentally lost. After asking a few mountain people, they finally turned back.
After driving the mountain road all night, the day gradually dawned, the road was easier to walk, and the merit was earnest, and I ate some dry food, and found a spring to drink it to my heart, and after a little rest, I continued to hurry.
Before the dry food was eaten, he saw that he was getting closer and closer to home, but he was inexplicably uneasy, thinking: The only fly in the ointment of this rich and noble is that there is no evidence, and there is no human witness, will the court believe the words of a small hundred households, Wang Pu, a rebellious person, has the courage to fornicate with thieves, and most of them will rebel after the incident, and there will be a big war between the official army and the rebels in Pinglu County. He had to bring his family to other places in time to avoid being involved in the war.
Ahead is the mountain col guarded by the thief army, out of this mountain col two hours to walk home again, Shang Gongde came closer, thinking in his heart what to say to deal with the past, he has long been familiar with this, no problem.
I only heard a series of bows in the depths of the dense forest, and a dozen or so arrow feathers in a row rushed to the wind with cold light, "Poof, poof, poof." Three of the arrows nailed Shang Gongde to the ground, and it was only then that he had time to scream, and these three arrows were all from a stone strong bow, which could penetrate the bones, and it was difficult for the arrows to survive.
"I finally caught it and didn't run away. Master Fu came out of the dense forest with a dozen archers, came to Shang Gongde, and said with a cruel smile. After he got the news, he immediately took the archers and quickly laid an ambush here, and in order to avoid startling the snake, he also deliberately made a big detour, staggering from the path taken by Shang Gongde.
"Brother Wudou, come out and recognize, it's this person. Master Fu suddenly turned around and asked in a loud voice.
Fu Wudou followed with a cower, glanced inside, and met Shang Gongde's eyes, so he didn't dare to look at it anymore, only nodded. Shang Gongde was furious and wanted to scold, but he just spit blood in his mouth, and he was already dying.
"Brother Wudou, you should say a few words, let him die clearly, die in a daze, and when you get to the underworld, the king of Hades doesn't know, how pitiful it is, hum. Master Fu's words caused the archers to laugh.
"Yes, Master Fu. When Fu Wudou heard this, he approached, he bowed to Shang Gongde, and said in a flat tone: "I hate Master Fu, but I hate the government even more." Master Fu will not harm people for no reason, the government will. If you bring down the big official surnamed Wang, the thief army will be suppressed, and then the government will come to collect taxes, and we will have no way to live, and the good life now is not easy to come by, I don't want to lose, yes, I'm sorry. I'll give you sacrifices every year, don't blame me. "
Looking at Fu Wudou's back, Master Fu couldn't help but think of what Wang Pu said to him: Let the enemy drown in the people's Wang Yang sea.
