Chapter 347 Chapter 347: Chaos in the Northwest (10) [Yesterday's]
Qin Li didn't say anything.
Wu Xian stroked his fingers.
Question: "Probably, maybe...Qin Qing, do you think there is such a possibility that the evil plotted against him?"
Qin Li: "..."
Wu Xian said that he really couldn't blacken Shen Tang.
"Ask yourself, if Shen Youli was the one who suffered heavy losses due to the epidemic, and I held a good recipe to control the epidemic in my hand, do you think I would lend a helping hand?" In front of his confidants, he is not stingy with his imperfect side, because he knows that what is false will always be false, and no one can pretend for a lifetime.
Especially in front of smart people.
The more perfect his disguise is, the easier it is to be rejected when he reveals his true face at critical moments, and the faster and more thorough his renunciation.
Wu Xian does not need to be perfect in front of Qin Li.
He said frankly: "I won't."
In Qin Li's silence, he said: "I will watch Shen Youli being dragged down, maybe I am thinking of the old alliance in the past, and I am willing to help the other party when they are desperate and desperate, and use the smallest price in exchange for a flawless reputation..."
Qin Li couldn't sit still.
"My lord, you..."
Wu Xian raised his hand to signal him to stop talking, and smiled casually: "If it's not as good as it is, it's not as good as it is. There's nothing you can't admit. It turned out that I used the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman, and I made things difficult for Shen Youli many times. Still choose to calm down..."
He regretted that the sickle for cutting leeks was too sharp.
Shen·Leek·Tang, does it hurt?
Qin Li, as Qishan's biggest black fan, can't accept the reality, but the reality is in front of him, and the evidence is solid. Perhaps—Qin Li's heart was shaken for a moment—the lord really guessed it right, and the evil plotted him to be a good one?
No no no!
The country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change!
How many **** examples throughout the ages!
"When the epidemic is completely gone, prepare a generous gift for Brother Shen. In this troubled time, the two families need to move around more and help each other to survive in the world." Wu Xian tested Qin Li's tone, but Qin Li didn't "beat the mandarin ducks" Or hold on to evil plots.
So, Wu Xian was satisfied.
Qin Li, as the biggest obstacle to the closeness of the two families, has no objection, and this alliance is a certainty. But, who will be the middleman between the two? Wu Xian thought of Zhao Feng. Anyway, Zhao Feng is still in Heyin to pay back favors, so one thing will not bother the two masters.
Now, Wu Xian is not in a hurry to recall Zhao Feng.
Let him stay.
Tianhai is short of people.
If Qin Li could hear Wu Xian's heartfelt voice, he would probably be so angry that the three corpses would jump violently—this prodigal son!
Although Wu Xian’s tent lacks everything, there is no shortage of powerful and brave fighters. Like Zhao Dayi who can fight, he still has five, but talents are always raised in other people's nests, Wu Xian is not afraid of being hooked up by Zhao Feng or Shen Youli?
Wu Xian is still in the mood to make jokes, but Gu Ren is not so relaxed - all kinds of epidemic prevention measures have also had a certain impact on his good reputation - he is famous for "benevolence", and the common people in all towns and villages know that he is a money-loser , Pity the poor and poor good people, but not to mention the burning of the corpses, the buried corpses will also be dug out and burned. This is really appalling!
Where is this benevolent and righteous gentleman?
Obviously cruel thugs!
Except for Gu Ren's twelve righteous brothers, everyone else looked at him with a little fear in their eyes. As the epidemic was brought under control, the matter spread to the ears of Gu Ren's father-in-law and his wife like wings. The father-in-law is as old as the son-in-law.
Regardless of the fact that the epidemic area has not yet been unsealed, they went straight to the door.
As Gu Ren's father-in-law, he didn't dare to be too tough as a soldier, so he finally asked Chao Lian to be the master and welcome him in.
"Why did the woman come here? It's dangerous here."
"If I don't come, I don't know when I will be deceived by you!" Yue Zhang's tone was not kind, and Gu Ren was confused when he heard it.
"Why did the wife say that?" Although the two were Weng's son-in-law, they were also close friends before and talked about everything.
How did this pure friendship go bad?
It’s a long story. One day, the father-in-law lamented that his youngest daughter had a bad temper, and that he didn’t like any of the young talents introduced by the Iceman. She insisted on marrying the best man in the world... said "the best man in the world" , In fact, it's because of Gu Ren.
At that time, Gu Ren was a widower for the second time and had been widowed for two years. The father-in-law admired Gu Ren's behavior and was so rare that he couldn't help thinking of marrying his youngest daughter to him.
The two families get closer, and the daughter can get what she wants.
Best of both worlds!
However, this weird father-in-law didn't tell Gu Ren directly, but took a detour and found Gu Ren's former father-in-law and former former father-in-law. .
In short, Gu Ren's third marriage was settled like this.
The day before yesterday, I promoted my friend who had a good time drinking and talking to be a parent.
Gu Ren: 【…】
At the moment, the third father-in-law is talking about his son-in-law.
Angrily asked about digging people's graves and burning their bodies.
Gu Ren did not hide anything, and confessed the cause and effect.
San Yuezhang frowned: "That's the case, this move is really against the harmony of heaven, and is extremely detrimental to you! Then do what Shen Youli says, and you do it? How do you know that this person didn't hurt your thoughts? Even For the sake of the common people, we should be flexible."
Seeing Gu Ren haggard and thin for several laps, his father-in-law felt sorry for his son-in-law, and didn't speak too harshly, but the meaning must be conveyed in place! To prevent the son-in-law from being sold and paying for the money!
One poor and two white can still gain a firm foothold in the area of Heyin, saying that he is a snow-white, plump, innocent and cute rabbit?
Who will believe it!
Has Shen Youli ever done exhumation and burning of corpses?
Never tried to encourage others to do it?
Gu Ren: "...Brother Shen really did it."
San Yuezhang choked.
Change the subject: "What about your reputation?"
Gu Ren was not too worried about this, he just said in a low voice: "I, Gu Ziyi, did not gain a firm foothold in Shangnan by relying on a false name. A good reputation is the icing on the cake. How much can a bad reputation hurt me? I have a clear conscience!"
It is true that he cherishes feathers.
But it's not so morbid that it doesn't distinguish between right and wrong.
Shen Youli can regard the common people who are not under his rule as important and be honest with each other, can't he, Gu Ziyi, be able to do that? It is his duty to protect the common people under his rule.
Furthermore—
"Woman, too much fame is not a good thing."
San Yuezhang was puzzled: "Isn't it a good thing?"
Gu Ren twitched the corners of his mouth, and sneered.
"In the past, I was too gentle, so that people mistakenly think that Gu Ziyi is a soft and bully old man! Anyone can step on it! In the current epidemic, don't take me seriously!"
San Yuezhang didn't know where Gu Ren's anger came from.
Gu Ren said: "Women may wish to think about it, the epidemic area has not yet been unsealed, how did these news reach your ears?"
His rule tends to be broad and peaceful.
As long as it is not something that touches the principle, it is generally a major event that is reduced to a small one. Of course, there are not many people offended, Gu Ren has his own set of imperial skills, and he hasn't made mistakes all the time. However, this epidemic has sounded the alarm for him.
Should he change his style appropriately?
When there are few people, there is no harm in doing so.
But as the number of people increases, the voices become more and more, and they continue to follow the old path, and sooner or later there will be chaos.
Throughout Shangnan, not everyone is used to Gu Ziyi. Many people think that he is easy to bully, taking advantage of this epidemic to occupy his whole mind, sowing trouble everywhere. They are jumping around like this, Gu Ren doesn't do anything...
Didn't he disappoint others' good intentions?
San Yuezhang calmed down and thought about it.
He is not as knowledgeable as the first father-in-law and as shrewd as the second father-in-law, but as a wealthy gentry in Shangnan and an old fritter in Vanity Fair, he quickly figured out what was tricky inside. He also heard Gu Rensheng's determination to kill chickens and monkeys, so he naturally supported it.
San Yuezhang and rushing here are also worried.
Since Gu Ren has plans, he doesn't have much to do.
Just relay a few instructions for his daughter, send a few carts of supplements, and let Gu Ren take care of himself.
Squatting in the epidemic area all day, pity him.
Gu Ren saw off his father-in-law, his expression turned cold.
But this coldness is not aimed at anyone, but the news of the epidemic area has been spread, which means that some people have disregarded the epidemic prevention order and openly had close contact with the outside world. Once the epidemic spreads along this line, who can afford it? This person must be caught!
Gu Ren changed from being gentle in the past, and used thunderous methods.
Suppress a large number of people who are not firm.
The position is becoming more and more consolidated.
After the epidemic area is unsealed, it is already 20 years later, and the weather is getting hotter.
When the soldiers removed the wooden horses and fences, the people in the epidemic area who survived the catastrophe wept with joy and tears.
Seeing this, Gu Ren felt heavy.
Although Shen Tang's epidemic prevention strategy was given in time, and Gu Ren's side copied 100% of the homework, but there were still irreparable patients who lost their lives, and the population of the epidemic area lost nearly 60%. He had no choice but to move the slaves from other places, lest the place be completely deserted.
Is this the end of the matter?
Hehe, no.
Whether it's Gu Ren, Shen Tang, or Wu Xian, they are all thinking about one thing—how did the plague and worms come about?
Ha Yoon has an element of luck.
It should not be deliberately aimed at Shen Tang.
But what about Wu Xian and Gu Ren?
Under the rule of the two, there was no precedent for epidemic disease before.
Even if there is, the symptoms are different from this time.
Not a source of disease at all.
Gu Ren asked the sixth brother: "Guess who did it?"
Sixth brother naturally didn't know, but he knew that Gu Ren had already suspected the target at this time, so he asked: "Zhang He?"
"He is the most suspected."
There is a conflict of interest between Gu Ren and Zhang He.
Zhang He's ruthless hand can also be explained.
Sixth brother: "Even if it is really Zhang Yongqing, elder brother can't seek justice from him, at least not now."
Although the epidemic only claimed hundreds of lives, most of them were old and weak, and compared with the entire Shangnan population, they were not even injured, but a lot of money was spent to control the epidemic. was indirectly delayed.
There is a lot of mess that needs to be solved urgently, and there is no time to mobilize troops to Zhang He.
"...The most suspected does not mean that it is the real culprit. Before there is hard evidence, the eldest brother should not rashly make enemies."
"I know. Please write this down for now."
Gu Ren thought so.
Wu Xian's attitude is similar.
If it were really Zhang He, he wouldn't be so stupid as to fight alone. Naturally, Wu, Shen, and Gu would join forces to snap Zhang He's head! One-on-one is not popular these days, it is popular to bully the few with the more.
Quack and kill!
Only Shen Tang didn't play cards logically.
She chose to call directly to ask for an explanation.
Emmm…
Simply put, she was on a business trip.
_|￣|●
I'm guilty.
I broke my promise and gained three catties!
When I was tidying up at night, the manicure was broken, and I thought it was too early to go out to make a new one. Who knew that it took more than an hour to repair the manicure, and another hour to do the new manicure.
I really didn't count the time well.
There was a chapter 2-in-1 updated yesterday, and this chapter was also yesterday, only seven days old...
PS: The background setting of Gu Ren was mentioned in 217. His first father-in-law was his mentor, his second father-in-law was the previous county governor of Shangnan, and his third father-in-law was the current third father-in-law, Shangnan Fushen.
