Daming: From the end of Hongwu

He guessed what he would get in return, from the promotion that he dared to imagine when he gritted his teeth at the beginning, to the large reward later, it has been narrowed down to the fact that he only hopes that the nobleman can speak for him, so that the stubborn old man Liu will give him a big reward. Just marry his daughter.

But Zhao Guogong came and left again. What he expected, nothing happened.

A colleague next to him patted him on the shoulder at this time, jokingly said: "What? Ever since the Lord of the Zhen family came to Wuji yesterday, you have been out of your mind, why, you are an eighth Relatives who can’t be hit by poles, is it possible that they still hope that Zhao Guogong will see you? If you want me to say, you should guard the city honestly, people like us will be guarding the city gates all their lives.”

He smiled wryly.

But at this moment, Qianhu from Zhendingwei Wuji Qianhu Office hurried to the city gate, shouting anxiously and expectantly: "Who is Zhen Daqiang?"

The little flag officer was taken aback.

He hastily stepped forward and said, "Report to Wu Qianhu and name him Zhen Daqiang."

Wu Qianhu's eyes lit up immediately, looking at Zhen Daqiang as if he was looking at a peerless treasure, then Wu Qianhu couldn't bear it anymore, put his arms around Zhen Daqiang's arm, and said kindly: "Brother Daqiang! , To tell you the truth, I have noticed you a long time ago. You are really a young talent with outstanding ability. My brother came here to look for you today, just to tell you good news. I just ran down the appointment for you today. From now on, you will be one of the hundred households of the Hundred Households Office in the north of the city."

"Ah?" Zhen Daqiang was dumbfounded.

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

In this world, how come there is such a thing as Qianhu personally coming to see off officials?

The colleague who spoke to Zhen Daqiang just now was also dumbfounded.

This...this...impossible.

Everyone is destined to guard the city gate, how could Zhen Daqiang become a hundred households?

Wu Qianhu turned a blind eye to the surprise present.

"Oh, what, let's go, I'll take you to go through the process, don't be nervous, it's easy to be a hundred households, in the future, in your hundred households, whenever someone blows up with you, you come and tell your brother I, my brother beat his mother and didn't even know him."

"No, Wu Qianhu, I..."

"What kind of family is Wu, called brother, what? Look down on me, brother? It's right to look down on me. After finishing the process in a while, let's find a place to worship as brothers. It's a coincidence. When brother sees you, he thinks of me. Younger brother who died young, you look exactly alike, if nothing else, you will be my own brother from now on, and you will treat me as your own brother." Wu Qianhu dragged Zhen Daqiang along while walking.

When Zhen Daqiang was stunned, there was only one thought left. The promotion he had imagined before had actually come true.

This…

Zhao Guogong gave too much, too generous.

Wu Qianhu is also very happy at the moment. There is a hundred households under him who can have a relationship with Zhao Guogong. What does this mean, let alone other things. Help.

After Zhen Daqiang finished the appointment process, Wu Qianhu forced him to become a brother, and then Zhen Daqiang couldn't bear it anymore, he wanted to tell his beloved Miss Liu about it immediately.

He has loved her with inferiority for many years.

He wanted her to see his future, and his love to blossom and bear fruit.

Zhen Daqiang ran to the door of Old Man Liu's house in a hundred-household uniform, calling Miss Liu's name loudly.

Everyone in Liu's family, as well as the neighbors in the neighborhood, were all alarmed. Everyone came out and looked at Zhen Daqiang in a brand-new hundred household uniform, puzzled.

Zhen Daqiang took a deep breath, as if he was releasing the emotions that had been suppressed for many years, and shouted at Miss Liu, as if swearing: "Miss Liu, I want to marry you, I, Zhen Daqiang, can finally give you happiness now. "

……

On the other side, Zhen Wu and the others did not stop on the road, they galloped all the way, and at night, they had already left the real boundary, Zhen Wu chose a post station on the official road as a rest adjustment.

It was very tiring to travel all the way, so Zhen Wu and the others had a quick wash after eating, and then went to rest early.

But in the middle of the night, Zhen Wu was awakened suddenly by a knock on the door.

As soon as he moved, Zhu Yuying also woke up, Zhen Wu patted her, and said softly: "Go on to sleep, I'll go out and have a look."

"Did something happen?" Zhu Yuying asked with some concern.

Zhen Wu comforted: "Don't worry, nothing serious will happen." While talking, he simply put on his clothes and walked outside.

After arriving outside the door, Zhen Wu hissed at Cheng Liang first, then took Cheng Liang a few steps to the side to ensure that the room would not be disturbed again, and then asked: "What need to disturb me?"

Cheng Liang opened his mouth and said, "Reporting to Duke Guo, there was some movement at the back of the post station a while ago, the sergeant on duty went to investigate and rescued a father and daughter by accident."

"save?"

Cheng Liang nodded and said: "Yes, there are five or six people chasing and killing the father and daughter. The most important thing is that the father, who claims to be Jin Yiwei, is seriously injured and is dying."

Zhen Wu frowned suddenly: "Who is chasing him?"

"I don't know. The person on duty was worried about transferring the tiger away from the mountain, so he didn't force them to stay, and let them all escape. I tried to ask the Jin Yiwei, but he was in a bad situation at the moment, and he only said that he wanted me to be the master, otherwise he I won’t say anything,” Cheng Liang said.

There's something interesting about this.

Jin Yiwei's people will be hunted down unexpectedly.

Zhen Wu became interested, he raised his eyebrows and said: "Go, go and have a look."

After finishing speaking, Zhen Wu waved his hand and asked Cheng Liang to lead the way towards the rescued Jin Yiwei.

……

Chapter 329 - Jin Yiwei and Lori Surnamed Sun

At night, the inn was silent, only the footsteps of Zhen Wu and others echoed along the way. Not long after, everyone came to a room.

As soon as he arrived here, Zhen Wu smelled a bloody smell coming from the room. He frowned slightly, wondering what kind of injury the person inside had suffered to leave so much blood.

While thinking, he opened the door and walked in.

There were several sergeants in the room looking after the injured Jin Yiwei. The sergeants saw that there was no injury, only the Jin Yiwei was lying on the bed and was dying of pain.

His chest and legs were covered with traces of soldiers bandaging him to stop the bleeding. The blood had stopped at this moment and showed signs of coagulation, but it was obvious that he had lost a lot of blood before. The mattress had long been soaked in blood.

As for his youngest daughter, she sat aside in an unusually obedient manner, watching him quietly.

Several sergeants inside saw Zhen Wu coming, and immediately wanted to see him. Zhen Wu waved his hand in distaste to dismiss their salute, and then set their eyes on the Jin Yiwei.

Zhen Wu stepped forward and briefly checked the man's injuries.

The next moment, he sighed a little.

Based on his understanding of sword injuries, it can be concluded that this injury is basically hopeless, and now it is nothing more than waiting to die.

Zhen Wu has always admired heroes, this man suffered such an injury, and still survived to this day, which is a testament to his perseverance, so Zhen Wu didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly: "Is there anything you can't let go of or need to explain?"

Jin Yiwei glanced at Zhen Wu, then turned his head with difficulty to look at Cheng Liang who was behind Zhen Wu, his eyes were clearly inquiring, wanting to know Zhen Wu's identity.

There was no need for Zhen Wu to hide anything, so he said directly, "Say it, I am Zhen Wu, and I won't just sit idly by if I can help you."

A gleam of surprise burst into Jin Yiwei's eyes instantly.

He forcefully raised his heart, and said intermittently: "I ask the Duke to help take care of my daughter for a while. I still have a younger brother, Sun Zhong, the head of Yongcheng County. You can entrust my daughter to him."

Zhen Wu glanced at his daughter, nodded and asked, "What about the others?" He was a little interested in why Jin Yiwei was hunted down.

Now he is not afraid of trouble.

Seeing Zhen Wu nodding, Jin Yiwei was about to continue, but perhaps the most worrying daughter had found out, which made the anger he had just forcibly raised dissipate, and even his boyhood began to dissipate gradually.

Zhen Wu frowned slightly, and just when he thought he couldn't get the inside story, he saw Jin Yiwei forcefully raised his arm and pointed at his daughter.

"My... my daughter... I have a letter on my body, the Duke... you can... open it..."

As soon as the words fell, Jin Yiwei's raised arm dropped powerlessly. Zhen Wumeng stepped forward to check his situation. The next moment, Zhen Wu sighed and retreated.

died.

When Cheng Liang and the others saw a person dying in front of them, they all sighed in dismay. Destiny is impermanent, and life and death are involuntary. It's just a pity that his daughter may be in trouble in this life.

After all, anyone who watched his father die in front of his eyes would have some shadows in his heart, let alone a four or five year old girl.

For a moment, Zhen Wu and the others all looked at the little girl.

Contrary to their expectations, the little girl didn't cry or make a fuss, as if she was used to seeing life and death with Zhen Wu and others, but her eyes were full of sadness, but her face was not moved.

The little girl first handed Zhen Wu a letter hidden on her body, and then, as usual, she gently climbed onto the bed and hugged her father, ignoring the sticky blood, and pillowed her little head on her father at the chest.

Seeing this, Zhen Wu sighed and asked people to watch carefully, then went to the outside room, found a place to sit down, and observed the letter in his hand.

But he had just glanced at the envelope.

Zhen Wu was taken aback immediately.

The letter turned out to be for Xue Lu.

He frowned and took out the letter paper from it, and then looked at it carefully, but as Zhen Wu learned more and more of its contents, his expression also changed several times.

This is a distress letter.

This Jinyiwei was originally a dark disk of the Daming Mansion, named Sun Cheng, who had received the favor of Zeng Gu, the magistrate of the Daming Mansion. Originally, the Daming Mansion had always been calm, but since the Jinyiwei of the capital came to the Daming Mansion, there was a wave of cleaning. It's fine that some people really deserve what they deserve, but many innocent people were also implicated and imprisoned in the big prison. This made Zeng Gu unable to sit still anymore, and couldn't help but speak up for the innocent people a few times.

But this also offended Jin Yiwei. Jin Yiwei planned to fabricate charges and frame Zeng Gu to take in the remnants of Jianwen. However, Sun Cheng found out about their planting and reported to Zeng Gu in advance. Zeng Gu knew that he was no match for Jin Yiwei, so he disclosed the matter. He wrote the ins and outs of the letter in detail, trying to ask for help, but was afraid of any accidents on the way, so he asked the servants of the family and Sun Cheng to go to the capital to ask Xue Lu for help.

What happened afterward was not mentioned in the letter, but Zhen Wu could roughly guess a thing or two.

Presumably Jin Yiwei must have discovered some clues about Sun Cheng and tried to silence him, otherwise Sun Cheng would not have been hunted down with his daughter.

This... is a bit interesting.

It turned out that the one who chased and killed Jin Yiwei was also Jin Yiwei.

Ah.

It is indeed the most popular yamen today.

But why did Zeng Gu ask Xue Lu for help?Zhen Wu was a little puzzled, he hadn't heard Xue Lu mention this person, but after thinking for a while, Zhen Wu suddenly realized.

After capturing Jinan City last year, Xue Lu once led troops to attack the imperial troops at the Daming Mansion and Zhending Mansion. I think it was at that time that Xue Lu had some contacts with this Zeng Gu.

Since it is Xue Lu's person, if this matter is found on his own head, it can be regarded as finding the right owner.

Zhen Wu knocked on the table.

It's about Xue Lu, he has to take care of it.

After thinking about it for a while, he planned to send someone to visit the Daming Mansion first. On the one hand, he was afraid that if he listened to others, he would be in the dark. After all, he doesn't know what the relationship between Xue Lu and this Zeng Gu is.

But just when Zhen Wu was about to send someone to go there first, another question suddenly appeared in his mind.

Since this Sun Cheng wanted to go to the capital to seek help from Xue Lu, why did he go north?

One south and one north, even if he wanted to avoid Jin Yiwei's pursuit and take a detour to Nanjing, he shouldn't go in the opposite direction.

No matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out, so he decided to ask the little girl himself.

Zhen Wu came to the inner room, and said softly to the little girl, "Little girl, uncle wants to ask you something, is that okay?"

The little girl who had been crawling on top of her father without moving, finally moved when she heard Zhen Wu's voice. She stood up, got out of bed and came to Zhen Wu's side obediently, waiting for Zhen Wu's inquiry.

Zhen Wu looked at the little girl, and found that there were two lines of faint tears on her cheeks, but he didn't hear the little girl's cry, Zhen Wu couldn't help but sighed again in his heart, the little girl fell It is distressing.

"What's your name?" Zhen Wu said softly.

The little girl looked up at Zhen Wu, then immediately lowered her head and said, "My name is Sun Youshu."

"You Shu, let's be strong, although your father...although..." Zhen Wu couldn't bear to say the following words when facing the little girl.

But Sun Youshu said crisply: "I know that my father is dead, just like my mother and my brother. My father told me that if he dies, he will never come back."

Zhen Wu's heart seemed to have been hit by a heavy hammer. He sighed and didn't know what to say for a while.

At this time, Sun Youshu took the initiative to ask: "Uncle, what do you want to ask me?"

Zhen Wu took a breath, calmed down, nodded and asked, "Youshu, how did you follow your father all the way here, can you tell me?"

Sun Youshu thought about it, but she was still young after all, so she had no concept of the route at all. She just said that her house was set on fire, and then her father took her to run and run, behind her. People kept chasing and chasing.

While she was speaking, she secretly raised her head to glance at Zhen Wu, timidly, as if she was afraid that the narration would dissatisfy Zhen Wu, so she told Zhen Wu everything she could think of.

But basically it was what her father told her on the road.

Her father told her that her mother and brother were dead and would never come back.

Her father also told her not to make any noise to see her mother and elder brother, or her father would leave her behind and never care about her again.

She started to be obedient, but she was really tired from running.

Whenever she couldn't hold on anymore, her father told her that her father found out that Zhao Guogong was visiting relatives in Wuji, as long as they found Zhao Guogong, they would not have to run away anymore, and then they could not only sleep well, but also eat A lot of delicious food.

This sentence gave Zhen Wu the information he needed.

Zhen Wu couldn't help sighing that Sun Cheng was smart, knowing that he couldn't escape to Nanjing, he decided to come to Wuji to seek help from him, but it was a pity that Sun Cheng fell down the moment he saw him.

Baimeng Book

Sun Youshu was still talking at this time, Zhen Wu patted her head and said: "Okay, okay, uncle knows, you don't have to run away from now on."
