Chapter 417 Inexplicable hostility
"Is he... getting angry in the yamen?" Patriarch Song frowned and pondered. The eldest son was upset at the yamen, he could understand that, but no one in the family offended him, why did he put on such a dead look?
The long entourage who was watched by him was in a dilemma. The onlookers could clearly hear him clearly from the side. The uncle was angry because of what the master said.
Can gangstership be a trivial matter? The uncle has just entered the yamen, and he can't stand firmly on his heels, so how can he talk? The uncle has worked hard enough in the yamen, and the old man still makes things difficult for him, it's no wonder that the old man is happy in his heart!
This is because the master did not behave properly. The long follower has followed the head of the Song family for many years, and he is the one who wishes the Song family the best. He could see very clearly that if the Song family wanted to be better off, it would have to fall on the uncle. So he didn't want to create a gap between the master and the father and son, so he gently persuaded, "Master, it's not easy for the master. For things like today, the slave thinks it's better not to bother the master."
To be honest, the uncle is the real son, and the others are outsiders. How can anyone make it difficult for outsiders to kiss his son?
"You mean, I made him unhappy by mentioning this?" Patriarch Song paused holding the cup, "No way, it's not a big deal, they are all relatives, and he is in the yamen again, When people begged to come to the door, they also gave him a high look. Besides, if you can’t help, you can’t help, and I don’t have to force him.” I couldn’t understand why the eldest son was unhappy.
Long follow...
Now he really thinks that there is something wrong with the master's thinking. As a slave, he can gently remind him that any more is inappropriate. He lowered his eyelids and said: "Uncle is not unhappy, grandma is ill, he is just worried about grandma."
Patriarch Song drank tea, but felt very uncomfortable. He always felt that the eldest son was becoming less and less close to him, but Lixian was still caring. When Lixian is elected next year, he will divide the family between his two sons. When the time comes, he will follow Lixian to Beijing, so let the eldest son stay at home.
The Ma family and the Yan family have been locked up for almost a month, and Wen Jiuxiao deliberately left them alone. These old ladies who are used to living a rich life, once fell from the clouds into the mud, panicked, and lost their previous glamor in just a few days. look.
One month is enough for them to lower their high heads, and now they rush to eat the prison food that they didn't even look at before. Now the interrogation is asking what to say.
Except for Patriarch Ma, this old man has a hard mouth, and the question is just one sentence, "Whether the winner or the loser, kill or cut, it's up to you." Whether it's wives, concubines, or many children and grandchildren, he doesn't care about any of them.
It is rare to be so cruel. If this person was born in Shanyun County, if he was born in the capital, he might stir up a **** storm.
But this doesn't affect anything. If Patriarch Ma doesn't recruit, others will naturally recruit. His valued children and grandchildren, his trusted servants, his beloved women... They are afraid of death, they want to live, and they have weaknesses.
Wen Jiuxiao put together pieces together, but he also figured out the matter eighty to ninety percent.
It turns out that the Ma family's collusion with the pirates was not a whim, but the two sides have been in secret for many years. The Yan family is the one who was tied to the pirate ship.
Among the many confessions, one person caught Wen Jiuxiao's attention. This person is the third leader of the pirates, no one knows his name, only know that he defected to the past, he is highly skilled in martial arts and ruthless.
According to Patriarch Ma’s favorite concubine, Patriarch Ma originally only planned to provide the pirates with information about the city and the Yamen, but changed his mind after going out for a trip. The concubine said that he met the third master.
Ma Patriarch's personal entourage also confirmed this point.
Three masters... Wen Jiuxiao always felt that there was some disobedience, this person seemed to have a great hostility towards him. I don't know if it's an illusion, but this feeling is very strong anyway.
Wen Jiuxiao had to pay attention to how many times he had escaped from death. It's a pity that no one in the Ma family has ever seen the face of the third leader, even the head of the Ma family can't guarantee that what he sees is the real face.
Wearing Jiuxiao, he thought of the captive pirate. In the first trial, someone really saw this third master.
Mentioning him, the captured pirate looked terrified.
I also heard that a servant accidentally spilled tea on his shoe, and without showing his face, he turned around and found an excuse to throw the man into the sea.
Although the time for the third master is short, the pirates are more afraid of him than the first and second masters, and they dare not even raise their heads in front of him.
According to the pirate's description, Yu Zhi drew a portrait of the third master, revised and revised it, and finally, Yu Zhi's eyes fell on the scar between the eyebrows of the person in the painting, "Why do I look familiar?"
Wen Jiuxiao looked familiar, "This is not..."
"The robber leader who ran away from Tiger Village!" The two looked at each other and said in unison.
The hatred of destroying the village, no wonder he hates him so much, Wen Jiuxiao's intuition is not wrong. He was still on the road at the beginning, and after the robber leader escaped, because he hadn't taken office yet, Wen Jiuxiao couldn't issue a wanted notice. Later, when he took over Shanyun County, he was too busy, so he forgot about it. Unexpectedly, this person ran off to become a pirate, and even became the third master.
"What is the third master going to do?" Yu Zhi asked.
Arrested and brought to justice? The sea is vast, and Shanyun County does not even have a decent official ship, which is obviously unrealistic.
Leave it alone? This man is cruel and merciless, and he has committed a heinous crime, Wen Jiuxiao is not willing to let him go unpunished.
"Offer a reward and issue a wanted notice." You can't let that mouse in the gutter hide in the dark and be proud.
As soon as he heard the word "reward", Yu Zhi's eyes lit up three points, "How much?"
The appearance of eagerness to try made Wen Jiuxiao's brain ache, "Don't even think about it, it has nothing to do with you, just give birth." This woman doesn't even look at her physical condition?
Yu Zhi was a little disappointed, his shoulders slumped, and he said stiffly, "I'm just curious, and I don't want to do anything." Even if she was pregnant, but she has Xiaolu, and it should be no problem to catch a third-in-command .
If the fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, wouldn't it be good for her to earn the bounty? mean!
Wen Jiuxiao didn't believe a word of her words, "It's okay to be curious, but not to go out. Before the child is born, I won't go anywhere, so I can stay in the city with you?"
Wen Jiuxiao took her hand and coaxed her softly.
Yu Zhi...
Can I apply not to accompany me?
Obviously not! Thinking of Wen Jiuxiao's intense marking in the next few months, Yu Zhi collapsed.
Wearing that Jiuxiao's letter to the capital asking for a cook was urgent, he actually went to the capital together with Fan Huailiang's memorial.
When I saw a comment, I was shocked. Hehe has always said that it is difficult to agree with each other. If you don't like it, you can click the fork, but don't attack personally. The author himself has worked so hard to write the article, so he naturally thinks it is very good, and I don't need Liang Jingru to give me courage. Is it possible that the author has to say: The writing is too bad, everyone don't want to read it?
Today is the 7th anniversary of Hehe Lai Xiaoxiang, and this happened, alas...
Forget it, let’s read the article harmoniously!
