Overgod Ascension - 312. Chapter 312 Undercurrents (7600)
Chufeng County City.
After collecting the entrance fee, Wu Ming’s bullock cart entered the city without hindrance.
The journey was also very peaceful, there were no bandits, enough to see Wu’s pheasant’s ruling methods.
However, Wu Ming knew very well in his heart that even if the reputation is good, once it is related to this year’s harvest and the livelihood of the whole family, the scholar-officials and the common people of Chufeng County will not hesitate to abandon Wu’s pheasant!
“Master, where do you go next?”
Old Luo likes this young customer very much. He doesn’t talk much, and he doesn’t have any unreasonable demands. Of course, the most important thing is-give money happily!
As soon as I entered the city, I settled the money for the car. Anyway, it was only two steps away. After saying that it could not be delivered, I could ask for a few more rewards!
The fare needs to be shared with the cattle and horses. This reward is my own, so there is eagerness and sincerity on his face.
“Oh?”
There was a playful smile on Wu Ming’s face.
“It’s only a few steps left and right, the old man has to send the son safely to him!”
The old Luotou laughed with him, his criss-crossed faces also looked flattering.
“Never mind… Go directly to Jiedu’s Mansion, you can’t do without you…”
Wu Ming said leisurely.
But these words made Old Luo Tou’s steel-cast arm shook, and almost made the bullock cart rush to the edge of the road.
‘Oh…is this young man still a small official in Jiedu’s mansion? ‘
Old Luo’s heart shuddered, but at this moment he didn’t dare to say more, drove the bullock cart to the center of the county city.
As the power center of Chufeng County, Jiedushi Mansion is naturally a landmark building, with two huge stone lions standing at the door, showing its majesty.
And on the front street, there is a row of gorgeous horse-drawn carriages, all waiting for officials to see Wu pheasant.
Numerous horse-drawn carriages, either luxurious, simple, and of different shapes almost blocked the road. Old Luo looked at this scene, and he dared not step forward, so he could only stop by the side and smile with a smile: “Little official… I really can’t get through ahead!”
In this world, the ranks are so distinct that he wouldn’t dare to go parallel with a carriage. Where would he dare to step forward?
“Never mind!”
Wu Ming threw out a few large sums of money and walked to the gate of the Jieduzhifu.
Old Luotou did not leave. On the contrary, he looked at Wu Ming’s back with expectant eyes, eager to know the status of this little official in the Jiedu Mansion.
If it is a real noble person… he feels that he will have the capital to brag to other guests in the future.
Before Jiedu Mansion, there were more guests waiting, all holding famous posts and queuing one by one.
But Wu Mingli ignored them and walked in directly to the gate of Jiedu’s Palace.
This blatant jump in the line immediately made him feel the focus of a large line of sight behind him, and there is still a lot of good drama, but no one directly jumped out, as if he wanted to see him hit in front of the tooth soldier. Battered.
but……
“Uncle?!”
The guards of the Huofeng Camp who had been guarding made a cry of surprise, and immediately saluted Wu Ming in.
“Aunt… Uncle?!”
The officials lined up behind were messed up in the wind. At this time, seniors came to tell their faces. After a while of whispers, those people looked at Wu Ming’s back and were full of jealousy…
“I’ll drop a mother…”
Old Luo’s mouth is also wide open, like a sculpture, but he knows one thing in his heart, he will definitely not lack the boasting talk in the future.
…
On the other side, Wu Ming didn’t care about the flies behind him.
It made him a little bit regretful, but he didn’t jump out of a certain second generation of silly fork and gave him a plot of slap in the face in public.
It seems that there are still a few fools in this world.
“But… if you really care about it, I’m the second largest generation in Chufeng and Nanfeng County, right? No! It’s just one generation…”
Wu Ming put away his own bad taste and went to the backyard of Jiedu’s Mansion.
Obviously, Wu Pheasant had lived in Jiedu’s mansion during this period, and even brought her boudoir equipment.
“Where is your lady?”
“The young lady is still inspecting the drought situation outside the city, and the layout of the water keel… I am afraid I will be back very late…”
The one who led the way was a close-knit handmaid from before Wu’s pheasant, who seemed to be called a servant knife or something else, but at this time, there was no arrogance in the front yard, and the smell of disagreement, pulling the knife towards each other, whispered Wu Ming in a whisper. When he arrived at Wu Pheasant’s bedroom, he changed his robes and boots for him. Then he asked: “We have already sent a flying horse to report the news of my uncle’s arrival. Uncle has been exhausted all the way and needs a meal?”
In the words, there was a three-point flattery unconsciously, but it was thinking of the promise of the young lady.
The members of my own camp are actually concubines married to Teng. Speaking of which, Wu Ming is also her husband, and naturally she serves more carefully than usual.
“Also…”
When Wu Ming agreed, he could obviously feel the surprise of the maid, and he couldn’t help but smile again. The red sleeves added fragrance, and the beautiful lady accompany the meal. It was originally the pleasure of the literati’s boudoir, so why bother to refuse?
…
Time into the night.
Inside Chufeng County, the sky was dim, and a row of lights was on.
A conversation is going on in a secret room in the famous Sifang Inn in the city with decades of gold-letter signs.
“This is the news from your newspaper today…”
In the secret room, a little oil lamp flickered, dim and dim, with a mysterious smell.
Under the lights, there was a huge desk, the shopkeeper of the Sifang Inn, the originally kind-looking man, now with frost on his face, glanced at a beggar in quail clothes in front of him.
“Master Qi… today’s news in the city is here!”
This beggar was very old and looked like he had weathered the world, but in front of this adult, he did not dare to neglect.
“Then why is this person just a few strokes?”
An adult who looked like the shopkeeper pointed to Wu Ming’s dossier!
“This person?”
The old beggar stagnated: “This person is just a big family in the county, and at most one sister has a way…If it weren’t for the name of Jiedu’s husband-in-law, I am afraid that Wu Tiehu in the family has more monitoring value…”
“Confused!”
The shopkeeper said with a cold face: “I won’t say much… Within three days, I want to know all the news about Wu Ming, from childhood to adulthood, the troubles that have been caused, the woman who has molested her, everything is fine, don’t let it go. pass!”
To be in the dark is to be as careful as a hair.
In his opinion, even if he is only the husband-in-law of Jidu, he is already worth the cost, not to mention the other party seems to be a little mysterious…
He glanced at the old beggar again, and said softly: “I also know that it is not easy for you…I think back then, 30 of us were ordered to stay here and stay here for 20 years… Some people died directly, and some couldn’t bear it. , Gone, some people have even passed it down for several generations. The descendants have forgotten the mission on them… It was only recently activated. Do you have any complaints?”
“Subordinates dare not!”
The old beggar smiled bitterly, this is still understanding the situation of the boss, otherwise the subordinate dare to admit that he has resentment in his heart? In the future, just wait for the day before your head!
“I know you worked hard too!”
The shopkeeper is also a person who has been dormant for decades, and he has acted a lot more gently: “Recently, Jiedushi Mansion is renovating the county, and your days are also sad. You will bring a few ounces of silver back later…not no more, but more. , It’s easy to attract attention!”
“I know!”
The old beggar smiled bitterly: “Boss! If you hadn’t been there, the brothers would have been gone!”
In my heart, I still admire the leader very much, and I can’t help but bring out the old name.
“Well, Shangfeng has already made a promise. After doing this, all the previous things will be wiped out. Brothers can all get rid of the shackles and be honest!”
After the old beggar left, the leader was silent for a long time under the candlelight before clapping his hands again.
“grown ups!”
The black shadow in the corner squirmed and turned into a young man dressed as a small servant, with a cold face, kneeling on one knee.
“Although everyone is a loyal minister, after so many years, it is hard to guarantee that he has no ideas…”
There was a chill in the words of the boss who looked like the shopkeeper: “Go and follow him, if everything is as usual, if you want to inform the secret… you know what to do!”
“Please rest assured, your subordinates will make him disappear silently!”
The youth quickly retreated.
The shopkeeper looked at this scene, but sighed.
It’s not that he doesn’t trust his subordinates, but since Dinghou’s intelligence network was uprooted, Chufeng County has conducted raids many times, and all spies have suffered heavy losses.
If this is not the case, they still don’t know how many years will pass before they will be remembered again.
“It’s not that I’m sorry, brother… It’s just loyalty and filial piety, I can’t have both ends!”
The shopkeeper said coldly, his eyes flushed.
The Great Zhou has been raising the people for three hundred years. There are still people who are loyal to the liver and righteous.
Thinking like this, he opened the wooden table and took out a secret order:
“At all costs, we must ensure that the court rules and prevent Wu’s pheasant from unifying Dingzhou…”
The leader murmured, put the secret order on the oil lamp, and let the flame swallow the paper.
He closed his eyes and opened them after a long time. There was coldness and sharpness in his eyes, but all the pity he had before disappeared.
“God help me!”
“The drought in Chufeng and Nanfeng counties, this is the destiny!”
“As long as the spring ploughing is delayed, there will be disasters in the coming year. Wu’s pheasants have no time, they can’t gather soldiers at all, and they can’t even attract Dinghou’s soldiers to attack…”
“At that time, the literati and officialdom’s homes that I have connected in series, and the big households, can all rise up. When the inside and the outside are combined, they will be exhausted. It is best for the imperial army to destroy this woman and sweep the other two territories by the way. That will be great. !”
Although he knew it was difficult, he never regretted it and did it.
This is his commitment and his loyalty!
Otherwise, these decades of dormancy, incognito, and the death and injury of a large number of brothers, and the reclusive and desolation of a large number of brothers, are they all in vain?
If the Great Week is gone, who will acknowledge the achievements of these people?
This is the sorrow of the little man, and it is the pain of the secret spy!
