"no."
Tian Jiacong shook his head to stop his son from continuing to persuade. "The meaning of being a father is not that I don't want to fly high. It's that being a father is not far away from being promoted, so why waste the family wealth that I have saved so hard to feed officials who can't guarantee their bottom line?
You also know that Wu Qiongsi is in charge of killing and not burying that person. Yes, he will collect money to do things, but after the work is done, it will be someone else's responsibility; if there is any mistake, he will not help to cover it up.
Only if he has been filial to him continuously, and only if he can afford it, will he take action to protect others.
Too unsure. It is impossible for a father to depend on such a person for the lives of his whole family and nine clans.
Besides, your brothers and brothers are all promising. We can't afford to take any more risks. "
"Father, what do you mean when you say you are about to be promoted?" Tian Wu asked curiously.
Tian Jiacong stroked his long beard and said with a confident look: "Although the Khitan has rebelled and left the country, someone can bring it back. By then, a large number of officials will be needed to fill the gap. As a father, I am leaving. The Khitan is so close, and its official reputation has always been good, so he will definitely be transferred to any of the big officials. We can just wait."
After hearing this, Tian Wu became even more confused. "Is there someone? Who is so capable? Lou Jingde is gone."
"Who else could it be?"
Tian Jiacong glanced at his fourth son, who only knew how to make money, "Di Ying and Di Huaijie."
Tian Wu was silent for a long time when he heard the name.
Then he stopped trying to persuade his father and turned to talk about the current situation in the court.
Although his father has always been a small county magistrate, he is well-informed and experienced. Tian Wu still has a lot to learn from his father.
"Let's go and visit various towns and villages."
After chatting for a while, Tian Jiacong suggested to his son.
Tian Jiacong likes to do this very much. It feels like he is patrolling his own territory, and he feels full of accomplishment and practicality.
And if he goes to the capital city, he will feel that even the mansion is not his.
Tian Jiacong also passed on this habit of walking around to his sons. The fourth son, Tian Wu, learned best.
So as long as Tian Wu comes back and is free again, Tian Jiacong will ask Tian Wu to accompany him around every day.
Tian Wu also readily agreed.
He saves a month of leisure time every year, and when he has almost all his supplies, he goes home.
However, the length of time spent at home is not certain. He is a concubine, not a legitimate son. He didn't feel comfortable staying too long.
Usually, he would wait for his father to exchange all the items he brought back into money, then take half of them and leave.
The other half is the filial piety silver he gave me.
I brought back a lot of things this time, and Tian Wu was not sure how long he could stay at home.
When the father and son walked to Tiehe Village, Tian Jiacong also mentioned the case of Xian Dan'er's murder.
Tian Wu was very surprised to hear this and asked a lot of questions.
After knowing that it was County Lieutenant Liang Feng who surrendered, I felt very sorry. It's just that his father didn't know much about it, so he didn't ask anything.
"Master Di, didn't you take care of those five cases?" Tian Wu asked curiously.
Tian Jiacong shook his head and said: "He is now the Commander-in-Chief of the Border Army. How can he get involved in local cases? He has been in office for so long, and even the father still doesn't know what he looks like."
Tian Wu understood immediately.
And it was late at night on the twelfth day after he came back.
Another moonless night. Yongmu Village.
The villages where the six murdered boys lived were connected like a moon bud.
Yongmu Village is in the lower left corner of the moon bud, a place that has not been visited by the murderer, and it is also the closest place to the moon bud.
A dark shadow clung to the wall and slipped into the village.
It didn't disturb anyone, only the sounds of frogs and crickets stirred up one area after another.
But on such a summer night, those screams have long been regarded as ordinary, and no one will open their eyes.
Cao Dan'er slept on a couch in the courtyard next to her father.
Although six boys have been involved in accidents, it is impossible for the people of the whole city to close their doors and go back to their houses to sleep at night.
In addition, it has been so long, my memory has faded, and I don’t think my family will be the “lucky one”, so I have to do whatever I have to do.
But Cao Dan'er's father would prepare an ax next to the couch every night before going to bed. Then he didn't let Cao Dan'er sleep by himself, but slept next to him.
In this way, I feel that the protection is sufficient.
The black shadow touched the door of Cao Dan'er's house. Under the veil he was covering, the corners of his mouth curved diagonally, and a sinister look flashed in his eyes.
He retracted his head, squatted against the wall, covered a small space with his long black robe, then took out a small lump of something from his sleeve pocket, and blew out a small fire stick. He lit the object on fire and threw it into the yard.
Then he quickly stamped out the fire fold, picked it up, and held it in his hand.
The object that was thrown into the courtyard of Cao Dan'er's house did not emit bright firelight, but looked like a damp grass ball with only small sparks flickering.
Released streams of smoke.
Not choking and smells good.
It was heard that the family named Deng fell into a coma.
At this time, the mass had just been burned and turned into a small pile of ashes.
The dark figure waiting outside the hospital walked in confidently and boldly. By the way, he stepped on the ashes, making them completely blend with the soil on the ground.
In Father Deng's arms, Cao Dan'er was leaning on the armrest of the couch because she was sleeping too deeply.
The black shadow blew up the fire fold again. This time, there is no need to hide anything.
Seeing Cao Dan'er's small body and face, an evil smile appeared on Heiying's face again.
He walked towards Cao Dan'er and gently touched Cao Dan'er's face with his hand.
The way he walked was magnanimous, but his actions were extremely obscene and obscene.
At this time, I suddenly heard a sound outside the hospital.
The black shadow was instantly frightened, and immediately blew out the fire seal, and hurriedly hid behind the courtyard door.
When I wanted to listen more carefully, I suddenly lost consciousness.
When I opened my eyes again, the candles were bright and there was plenty of light in front of me. It was so painful that he couldn't even open his eyes.
As soon as he raised his hand, he touched his face without the scarf.
My heart was pounding and sinking rapidly.
He knew he was exposed.
However, he was not in a hurry.
He took out a small bag of broken silver from his arms, raised his eyes and shook it. He said: "I wonder which official has such a long hand? He even wants to stop me from secretly being a good person and secretly giving some scattered money to poor people?"
