Chapter 129 Wang Sun
"Ahem," in a small courtyard in the city of Suzhou, a pale young man was leaning on the head of the bed covered with a thick quilt. There was an old man beside him, holding a bowl of soup and carefully serving it, and said: " Young Master, the government office can no longer hold back. The prefect has received a strict order from Nanjing and must give an explanation."
The young man said: "Okay, you tell them to let them go and do it. How did you see the blood? How did it come?"
The old man was stunned and said: "Sir, this------"
The young man said calmly: "Do you think this is not my family's family tradition? If I do this, it will be an insult to my ancestors?"
The old man said: "I don't dare."
The young man slowly closed his eyes and thought back to everything that happened a few months ago. He was the youngest son in the family and never liked reading. Nice clothes, nice food, nice reading. Not interested in fame, this was how he spent his life. With his family's status, he didn't need to do anything. Both father and brother have official positions in the court, not to mention the family's own property. Even without official positions, it is enough for the family to keep the family together.
But in the past few years, their family has become more and more miserable every year, and their father and brother have been dismissed from office, so that's fine. Anyway, his family doesn't care about official positions. Next, there will be attacks from all aspects. A few months ago, just because the family was related to the Zheng family by marriage, the family was destroyed.
It's simply unreasonable.
It was only thanks to the back-up arrangements arranged by his father that he escaped from death. Recuperate in Suzhou city.
With this, the former playboy suddenly came to his senses, but this time he was in jail. It greatly harmed his health, and soon he heard the news that his father and brother were executed. It made his heart burst into tears and he couldn't stop feeling sad.
From then on, he was determined to avenge his father and brother.
But how to take revenge?
It's not that this young man is unintelligent, he just didn't put his intelligence to good use before.
Now, after several months of observation and his own thinking, he discovered the opportunity. He designed this situation. In fact, this situation was not designed by him. But what he discovered. Such cases have happened several times outside Suzhou.
People are pushed to their limit. Will take desperate risks.
The so-called Jiangnan folk customs are weak, it is better to say that Jiangnan is rich, and most people rarely reach this point. The folk customs in the northwest are tough, it is better to say that the life of the people in the northwest is too difficult. He couldn't bear any setbacks, so he could only stand up and fight for his life.
It's just that the prosperity of Jiangnan is due to various handicraft industries, among which the textile industry is the most important. Now the pillar of the textile industry has been overturned. The impact will be felt at the bottom of society.
That's why he lit a fire.
And he also knew that the people in Jiangnan were inherently weak. After all, they rarely encounter times when they risk their lives to fight, and they are not as familiar with such things as the people in the northwest. Therefore, he wanted to force him to arrange such a situation.
First find a way to build relationships and let the Suzhou magistrate support them, and then when they can't stand it anymore, increase the pressure on these subordinate officials. Let them put heavy pressure on the people.
He is trying to think of a way here again, determined to cause a big mess.
It can be regarded as revenge for his father and brother.
As for family tradition.
His family can be regarded as a heirloom of poetry and calligraphy. Since the Tang Dynasty, they have been scholars for many generations, and the family atmosphere is also very good. Even though he is a dandy, he does not seek advancement or official career, and he has never done anything to harm the people.
Now that he is doing something, he feels a little guilty in his heart.
But then this trace of guilt was replaced by the thought of revenge.
He said calmly: "This situation in Suzhou, with or without me, will happen sooner or later. I just let them happen in advance."
The old man sighed, he didn't know what to say.
It is indeed the current situation of the main family. It's really hard to say.
But at this time, a shout of approval came from outside, saying: "Okay. This dear friend is so generous, but he was too careless. I guess it won't be used for much."
After a long time, Jin Yiwei arrived. "
After hearing this, the young man felt something in his heart and said, "Why don't you come in and talk."
But when the door of the room opened, it was none other than Ji Gang who came in.
The old man was already frightened by the situation in front of him. But this young man is very calm, knowing that since the man in front of him mentions Jin Yiwei, it proves that he is not Jin Yiwei. Not even from the imperial court. As long as you are not from the imperial court.
Now, he is willing to cooperate with anyone for revenge.
Even the White Lotus Sect is fine.
What's more, it seems that this person is not a member of a cult.
The young man said calmly: "Brother, why did you come to see me?"
Ji Gang said: "What you did was too rough. Many traces were not cut off. As long as the imperial court comes to investigate, they will definitely find you. But don't worry, I will do the finishing work on your behalf."
The young man said calmly: "So, do I still want to thank you?"
Ji Gang said, "We are all in the same camp, so you don't need to thank me."
The young man said, "I haven't asked yet, which side is this brother from?"
Ji Gang took out a waist card. Hand it to the young man.
The young man looked at it and saw that it said Cabinet Investigation Service.
Although the young man did not become an official, he had a good family background. I know that the Nanjing cabinet is determined not to have this official position. We also know that the great changes in official positions in Beijing are completely different from those in Nanjing. Most likely, this official position belongs to Beijing.
Ji Gang said: "You haven't asked me your name yet?"
The young man pondered for a moment and said, "Gu Wangsun."
Ji Gang immediately understood that this person was neither named Gu nor Wang Sun.
Prince Wang and Sun Gongzi are called together, Wang Sun is the Prince, and the Prince is the Prince, and he calls himself the queen of aristocratic family. The Jiangnan Gu family is of course also famous. But if he is later called Wangsun, then the Gu in front of him may not be his real surname. It is very likely that he was just found by Ji Gang.
After all, the so-called big family not only refers to the power in the family, but also the population of the family. Without tens of thousands of people gathered in one place, it can hardly be called a big clan.
If a family has constant talent, it must have a population base.
Since he did such a thing, he was naturally worried that he would be caught and die. Involving other members of the family. But it's not good.
But Ji Gang said: "Master Gu, now that you have made a start, what are you going to do next?"
Gu Wangsun said calmly: "Those who have survived the punishment just want revenge and have no long-term thoughts. However, if Mr. Ji is willing, I am willing to provide advice to the court."
Ji Gang said: "Ji will naturally make recommendations to the court."
Gu Wangsun said: "There is no time to arrange other things. But the show is about to begin. Sir, are you willing to watch it with me?"
Ji Gang said, "That's exactly what I meant."
-------
In front of the Suzhou government office, there is a row of standing cages. Standing cages are a kind of punishment, which means making people stand in a wooden frame. It was impossible to squat down while wearing shackles, and many people were forced to stand to death.
It was also a punishment commonly used by the imperial court to deal with people.
However, such punishments are rare here in Suzhou.
After all, Suzhou has been prosperous since ancient times. If there were fewer things to do, the court wouldn't have to use such brutal methods to suppress the people.
At this time, a group of people rushed over from nowhere and rushed to the front of the government office. They knelt down in a dark crowd and screamed loudly, asking their parents to make the decision.
For a time, it was very lively in front of the government office.
It's on a restaurant not far from the government office.
Gu Wangsun was wearing a fur coat with white down, and his skin was as white as snow, with no blood at all.
This is all what Ji Gang brought to Gu Wangsun.
Ji Gang was able to prosper in Nanjing, and he was involved in everything from top to bottom. There is never a shortage of money in my hands, and as far as fur is concerned, it is the flagship product of Northeast China. During this period, it has become more and more valuable. after all
The fine fur in the Northeast is not industrially produced.
It was originally a luxury item, but now it is even more expensive, with one item costing several hundred yuan. But Gu Wangsun had been wearing fine clothes since he was a child, and he put them on without any hesitation.
But even so, his body was still painfully weak.
Gu Wangsun coughed twice and asked, "How many people are there in the imperial court here?"
