Da Wei Chun

Chapter 157 Ginger is still old and spicy

Just as he was spinning random thoughts, he found that the personal guard stopped.Li Chengzhi raised his head subconsciously and saw Hu Baozong standing more than ten meters away.

Really can't stand talking?

He muttered something, and then took a closer look: Hu Baozong's face seemed to have been covered with some powder, but it still didn't cover the palm prints on his cheeks.His face was white or not, purple or purple, blue or pink, pink or pink, as if he had put on makeup and was about to sing a big show.

His brows were tightly wrinkled, his face was sad, his eyes were bloodshot, his clothes were wrinkled and stained with a lot of mud, as if he had rolled on the ground, how could he still have the chicness of a nobleman?

Li Chengzhi knew he shouldn't, but he just couldn't help laughing.

When he got closer, he realized that Hu Baozong's body was wet, and there were mud marks on his knees?
Really kneeling all night in the open air?
Li Chengzhi was taken aback: "What happened?"

Hu Baozong cried and said: "Grandpa locked up my father..."

I thought your grandpa was angry, what happened?
He felt relieved, and squinted at Hu Baozong again.

You idiot, is this a good thing?

With your wolf-hearted father around, maybe one day he will dig a big hole for you to jump in, just like he cheated me.

Your grandfather saw this and locked him up.

"Then why are you doing this?" Li Chengzhi pointed to his clothes and the soil marks on his knees, "Just for this, you knelt down and begged Hao Minggong all night?"

"What's more?"

Hu Baozong was crying, "Even the title of 'Shi' has been abolished, my grandfather clearly wanted to depose my father... I just begged, I suffered a battle, and then I was kicked out of the mansion... Grandfather also said that if Liu Huiwang is dissatisfied, I will not be allowed to go back for one day?"

The more Li Chengzhi listened, the more startled he became, until finally he couldn't close his mouth.

Confine and depose the eldest son, send the eldest grandson to fight and make meritorious deeds...

Why is this routine so familiar?
This is clearly the rhythm of helping Hu Baozong to the top?

What a great thing...

Li Chengzhi was ecstatic, and cursed loudly: "You idiot..."

"You are an idiot!" Hu Baozong said angrily, "That's my real father..."

Coauthor you know everything?

Li Chengzhi couldn't laugh or cry, and his heart was slightly moved.

Knowing that his father was cheating him, but he didn't take it seriously, and defended him everywhere... This is the ultimate filial piety mentioned in the book, right?
Or foolish filial piety.

But no matter what kind of filial piety it is, it shows that I have read the right person.

No matter how bad this kind of person is, how bad can he go?
His heart skipped a beat, he jumped off the horse, and put his arms around Hu Baozong's neck with a smile: "What are you panicking about? Even considering your feelings, it is impossible for Mr. Hao Ming to abuse your father. Don't worry.

You don't need to be distracted anymore, follow me to fight well, and when the merits are established and you take over the position of patriarch, the Hu family will naturally be up to you. At that time, whether to close or let go is not a matter of your words? "

Hu Baozong rolled his eyes: It's easy to say, my father has been the patriarch for nearly ten years, isn't he shut down by my grandfather if he says it, or abolished if he says it?
But it was a family scandal, and he was unwilling to talk about it with Li Chengzhi, so he took the initiative to change the topic: "Where are you going?"

"I wanted to find Mr. Hao Ming to discuss something!" Li Chengzhi pondered, "But your house is closed, so I don't know if you can get in?"

Hu Baozong was overjoyed: "Others can't get in, but why can't you get in? Go fast..."

He wanted to go in and see if something unbearable had happened in the house after this night?

He is very clear about his grandfather's temperament, and he has also vaguely heard some of his cruel methods. It is impossible to guarantee that when he is extremely angry, he will not be cruel to his father and uncle...

Li Chengzhi thought for a while, then nodded again: "Then let's go!"

It's really not a coincidence, I didn't expect such a big thing to happen to the Hu family in just one night, presumably Hu Hai is not in the mood to talk about it.

But Li Chengzhi was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, and something would happen.

According to Yang Shu's estimate, the Hu family must still have quite a few fields like the one Hu Hai gave him with a somewhat complicated background.

Maybe Hu Hai will cut his tail to survive, or give it away for nothing, or sell it half-sell and half-give it away.

So start as soon as possible.

The two quickly got on their horses and ran towards the city gate.

……

Hu Baozong froze outside the gate of Hu Mansion, looking like a sculpture.

Unexpectedly, even Li Chengzhi couldn't get in when grandfather said he would close the mansion?

Li Chengzhi didn't care much.

If you think about it, you can know that Hu Hai is so angry that even his own son can't wait to kill him with a knife. How can he be in the mood to see foreigners?
Do you want Jin to see a joke?

However, the steward who guards the gate has already conveyed his intention of coming, no matter how bad Hu Hai is in a bad mood, he will definitely respond.

The steward asked him to wait in the anteroom, but Li Chengzhi waved his hand. He looked at the family status and status of the Hu family with great interest, and thought in his heart: I don't know what the situation of the Li family in Jingzhou city is like. ?
I heard Li Song and Guo Cunxin mention it occasionally, it is said that the ancestors were also rich...

Li Chengzhi only remembered it at this time, and even forgot to ask who was the ancestor of the Li family?
……

Hu Mansion North Courtyard, study room!
Hu Hai half leaned on the bed, fixedly staring at the two jade discs in front of him.

In just one night, he seemed to have aged several years again, his face became more haggard, and his figure became more rickety.

His eyes were bloodshot, and with the sound of exhaling, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder between his chest and abdomen.

The steward stood under the hall, waiting quietly, and only after a long time did he hear Hu Hai sigh: "You really know how to invite famous people to buy straight?"

In the past two months, Hu Baozong has sent many letters, so Hu Hai knows everything about Li Chengzhi.

Although amazingly talented and unparalleled in talent and affection, Hu Hai always thought that Li Chengzhi should be no different from Li Shixian in essence, and his temperament should not be much different from the children of this era.

The same selfishness, the same greed, is the purpose of this rebellion. I'm afraid it's not as bright and upright as he said.

However, everything he did seems to be in line with the style of a gentleman and a benevolent advocate advocated by the gentry of this era.Not to mention Baozong, even Yang Shu and Zhang Jingzhi were coaxed by him?
Just like now, these treasures are returned as soon as they are said, just to rent some fields and house homeless refugees?
If it is said that this is Li Chengzhi's original intention, Hu Hai does not believe it.

You don't even have an official status. How much does it matter to you whether the refugees die or not, how many die?

Wouldn't it be better to fight your battle well and make your contribution, why bother causing more trouble?

The distinction between officials and civilians and scholars and ordinary people is as different as heaven and earth. There are quite a few officials who keep saying that they "caring for the common people", but how many of them really did it like Yang Shu?
But it’s okay to be too exploitative and harsh, and you still want Yourong?

If they are really going to be turned upside down by the common people, how can the aristocratic families survive?

Just look at the fate of Brother Yang Shu. If you really want to do it, you will definitely be tolerated by the gentry.

Li Chengzhi is so smart, he will not fail to understand this truth.

So Hu Hai concluded that he was inviting fame to buy straight.

This is also the place where Hu Hai admires Li Chengzhi the most: he is so good at things!
As long as there is a child in the family who has half the scheming of Li Chengzhi, why should he kill the killer to clean up the house at an age when the coffin boards are covered up to his neck?
Fortunately, Baozong had a very close personal relationship with him, and he hoped to learn something from him.

If you want to invite a name, then I will help you, and if you want to come, you won't let Baozong suffer...

Thinking of this, Hu Hai sighed again, and pushed the wooden box in front of him: "Send it out, hand it over to Baozong, just tell me what I said, let him watch and deal with everything inside..."

"Grandpa?" The steward exclaimed, sweating coldly from fright.

In that box was not only the entire wealth of the Hu family, but also the property that the governor Hu Shichang entrusted to Hu Hai to take care of.

What if Hu Baozong's brain got hot, or he was bewitched by Li Chengzhi and cheated them all?
Hu Hai sneered, and just waved his hands: "Let's do it?"

Worry!

Could it be that Baozong is a fool and an idiot, how could he be bewitched by someone to disperse his wealth with a few words?

Besides, the old man is not blind yet, if Li Chengzhi really wants to be so short-sighted, how can it be worth my heavy bet on him?

The caretaker stood still, and Hu Hai said coldly: "Aren't you going?"

The steward hugged the box tremblingly, and walked out of the study step by step.

……

With tears in his eyes, the steward put the box in front of Hu Baozong with a "boom", and then knelt down straight: "Mr. careful……"

After finishing speaking, he kowtowed heavily, and after getting up, he closed the door of the mansion, leaving Li Chengzhi and Hu Baozong outside.

so formal?

Li Chengzhi was very curious and poked Hu Baozong: "What's inside?"

Hu Baozong just shook his head, his lips were trembling, as if he couldn't even speak.

After taking a few breaths, he settled down and opened the box with trembling hands.

It's all silk paper... no, land deeds!
Li Chengzhi glanced at it for the first time, and his pupils shrank: South to Yushu River, north to Guandao... 220 acres of open land, the third courtyard of the farm...

The barracks were stationed within this range, and Li Chengzhi thought it was official land.

More importantly, a deed is worth thousands of acres, so there must be hundreds of them in this box?
He asked in surprise, "It's all there. Is there [-] mu?"

Hu Baozong nodded silently.

I went to...

Not to mention Hu Baozong, he wanted to shake it twice.

This is tens of thousands of acres of land, how much is there in the whole of Jingyang?
Hu Baozong explained: "Not only my family's, but also the family's uncle who entrusted him to cook for him..."

Who do I care?
He could hear clearly, Hu Hai said: Let Hu Baozong handle it.

Isn't it the same as saying: you can plant it for whoever you want, but if you have benefits, you can't forget Baozong?
Raising one household on ten mu can accommodate tens of thousands of households.

Calculated as food, it is at least 30 million shi a year. How many people can it support?

How many rioters are there under Liu Huiwang's command?
20 is the sky...

In addition to the 20 mu of monk farmland at the foot of Kongtong Mountain, even if all the [-] rioters were captured, more than [-]% of them could be resettled...

Li Chengzhi never thought that he would have such a big harvest just with the mentality of giving it a try?
Although he knew that Hu Hai's mind was not so pure, but he still had the urge to kneel down and kowtow to Hu Hai...

After a while, Li Chengzhi straightened his clothes regularly, bowed deeply towards the gate of Hu Mansion, and said loudly:

"Don't worry, my grandpa, this junior knows how to do it. There is also this land, which will be returned in full after autumn. If there is an acre less, this junior will come to see you..."

The sound was very loud, and it had already passed through the gate wall and spread to all the courtyards.

Hu Hai stood at the door of the study, squinting his eyes slightly, and nodded slightly.

It really is clever!
Li Chengzhi was expressing his heart to himself: Since you have given me a peach, I will repay you with a favor. Baozong will definitely not suffer a loss if he follows me.

And this land, since you gave it to me, I will naturally try to save it for you...

The steward who delivered the box before was even more brilliant.

Sure enough, the mind of a big man is not something that a servant like me can guess.

If Li Chengzhi dared to yell out in such an open and aboveboard manner, it meant that he had absolutely no desire for greed.Otherwise, if he really lost an acre, his reputation would be ruined...

Hu Baozong had already cried into tears.

What Hu Hai is thinking, he is very clear: If heaven fails to fulfill people's wishes, if the Hu family is still facing disaster in the end, he can only rely on himself in the future...

He kowtowed hard to the ground, and he didn't know how much he kowtowed, blood was already on his head, and he was pulled up abruptly by Li Chengzhi.

Li Chengzhi watched with cold eyes and sneered.

If your Hu family had fallen so easily, it would have fallen eight hundred times, and it would still be your turn to cry here?
Your grandfather is obviously trying to provoke you, and by the way, he uses me, not only to give you credit, but also to support you to earn fame.

Knowing that Hu Hai was plotting against him, he still had to appreciate it, let alone expose it.

He gently persuaded: "Instead of crying and whining and acting like a woman, it's better to save your strength and think about how to make meritorious deeds against thieves!"

In the past, Hu Baozong would have scolded him earlier, but today he is exceptionally well-behaved.With a hmm, he got up.

"go!"

With a cold shout, Hu Baozong carried the box and got on the horse. Looking at his expression, he wished he could rush to Jingzhou immediately and fight to the death with the thieves.

Li Chengzhi secretly admired: being so excited by Hu Hai, Hu Baozong's fighting spirit is more than ten times stronger than before?
There is also Hu Hai's courage, which is probably unmatched by anyone, so he is so relieved of himself?

If you are greedy for money, not to mention taking advantage of the fire and looting, you will be greedy for everything. If you are greedy for [-]%, [-]% or even half, there is no problem at all.

As for whether he will be choked to death, that is a matter for the future.

But Hu Hai entrusted it to himself without showing his face?

Older gingers are more spicy……
