The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

Su Jin didn't want to stay in Yangzhou Mansion for a moment. Although there were still ten days before the New Year, but once the idea of ​​returning to Yangzhou came up, he immediately returned home and wished he could leave immediately.high-speed update

Of course, there is also vanity at work here. Wealth and honor do not return to their hometowns, and they travel at night like clothes!Hundreds of years ago, the overlord of Chu could not help showing off his glory, not to mention Su Jin; the later generation is a dick, and there is no good opportunity to show off, so how could he miss it in this life.

But before leaving, there are a few things that need to be arranged; Ouyang Xiu has made it clear that he will be passing through Huainan this New Year and does not plan to return to the capital. It was Zhu Shiyong who disclosed the news to the bandits, and the other was the Huainan Road transfer envoy Wang Qinian who informed Su Jin.

The former is not too busy. Although Chen Laogen is in hand, the evidence is not enough, so he has to collect it slowly; while Su Jin's case is his primary responsibility when he comes to Huainan Road. He was busy with the case of officials in Yangzhou, so he didn't start to investigate at all; if he just returned to Beijing like this, it would obviously be unreasonable.

A few days ago, Ouyang Xiu sent someone to invite a transshipment envoy to Yangzhou, but for some reason, Wang Qinian has not arrived yet, Ouyang Xiu decided to go directly to the door, Wang Qinian still has a personal ID in his hand, it is the little leader of the Bagong Mountain bandit called the big old king Yes, it was this person's confession that was extremely detrimental to Su Jin, so Ouyang Xiu would naturally go to interrogate this person to find out the facts.

Ouyang Xiu originally wanted to take Su Jin to Shouzhou with him, but he felt that it was inappropriate. It was Su Jin who was being investigated, and there was no reason to investigate in front of him. This would arouse Wang Qinian's great suspicion and wariness, which would actually be detrimental to the matter. .

In fact, Ouyang Xiu has already received the emperor's instruction. Even if this incident is true, it will turn into a trivial matter. After all, Su Jin has done a great job in destroying the bandits. As for making nonsense promises in order to deal with the bandits, Although it is hateful, it is not so hateful as to be a heinous crime; other things such as greedy for merit and reckless advances, and refusing the assistance of the garrisons in Shouzhou and Luzhou are all nonsense.

You want to say that a person like Su Jin would rather like to fight the bandits with his life for that little credit?Not to mention Ouyang Xiu's understanding of Su Jin, this person would never do such a thing, and it doesn't make sense in general logic.

All in all, Ouyang Xiu was going to wipe Su Jin's ass, and he was instructed to come here from the capital, not to mention that he has kept a secret with Su Jin at this moment, and has become a comrade-in-arms in the trenches, so naturally he will try his best to procrastinate for him Ouyang Xiu was also very puzzled, why a well-behaved imperial envoy of himself actually boarded Su Jin's pirate ship after many detours, and kept such a treacherous crime for him, even thinking about it is scary.

But now it's time to open the bow and there is no turning back. This is a road of no return, and they can only drag Su Jin and Yan Shu desperately, if they want to die, everyone will die together, as long as they don't die, everyone will rise to the top together.

Su Jin was not in the mood to tangle with Ouyang Xiu, he advised Ouyang Xiu to go back to the capital first, and come back after the first day, but Ouyang Xiu refused, so he gave up; handling the case with all his heart without rest on holidays, this in itself is what Ouyang Xiu wanted to do in front of the emperor He did not have such a high consciousness, and he could not prevent others from showing it; so after the meeting in Luzhou on the sixth day of the lunar new year, Su Jin completely forgot about Ouyang Xiu.

Another headache for Su Jin is how to settle down the women rescued from Fugui Building, neither can they be brought back to Luzhou, nor can they be kept in captivity in that inn all the time; These women distributed some money and dismissed the matter.

In the afternoon, Su Jin found an excuse to sneak into the inn, and gathered together a dozen women. Although these women had only met Su Jin once, they were not afraid of encountering them; Playing around, pointing and criticizing Su Jin in a low voice, and even secretly teasing Su Jin with their eyes.

Su Jin coughed, stretched out his hand and spread a large package on the table and opened it. The table was filled with jewels and jewels, and the gold and silver ingots dazzled people's eyes. Then he knew what Su Jin was going to do.

Su Jin coughed and said: "Girls, Feng Jingyao and a group of criminals were all executed yesterday, and most of the rest of the Dragon and Tiger Sect were also sentenced to imprisonment. I think you have heard about it; once this matter is over, you don't have to hide." I hid it, so I came here today to give you back your freedom, here is some money, it is up to you to take care of it, you take it and go to your relatives and friends."

The noisy laughter fell silent, and the women kept silent, looking at each other and not talking.

Su Jin smiled and said, "What? Don't you all hope to regain your freedom? You are so happy now."

Bai Mudan, who was standing by the side, suddenly knelt down on the ground, lowered her head and wept, "Young Master Su, the slave sisters were still discussing how the Young Master would arrange us yesterday, and also thought that the Young Master would dismiss us, but our sisters are I was taken captive here when I was a child, and my family and relatives are gone, there is a vast sea of ​​people, but there is no place to stand, where can I go?"

All the women also knelt down and wiped their tears, and a woman in red wept softly and said, "Yes, Mr. Su, the servants and others have never lived in the world. Where else can I go?"

Su Jin knew this woman in red. He was Red Rose who served her with Bai Mudan that night. Su Jin was deeply impressed by the ecstasy that night, and Red Rose's clever tongue almost sucked out her own soul.

Su Jin also didn't want to throw away these beauties in the world. Although these women were filthy, Su Jin had no taboos in this regard, and he didn't want to marry them. What he wanted was this coquettish style. Naturally, they are good wives and mothers, but if they are looking for flowers and willows outside, these people who are the best in the world are naturally the first choice.

But the question is, what can I do with them?It was absolutely impossible to bring them home, and it was such a rhetoric after they were dismissed, it really made Su Jin's scalp scratch like snowflakes, and there was nothing he could do.

"Master Su, my sisters and I don't have great skills. Many sisters don't even understand the worldly affairs. If you go out of this door, you're probably going to die." Bai Mudan cried.

Su Jin frowned and said, "Then what should I do? I have nowhere to settle you, so it's difficult."

Bai Mudan said softly: "My sisters and I didn't expect to be taken in by the young master, otherwise, please ask the young master to invite Mi Huaniang, our sisters will be under her care, and we may still be able to survive under her wings. "

Su Jin said angrily: "How can you do this? I finally rescued you from the government without telling the truth, and you still want to go back to your old career. Really... really... tell me what to say?"

Bai Mudan hurriedly said: "My lord, you may be mistaken. Although we are filthy, we are not so self-deprecating. It's just that Mi Huaniang once told our sisters that if one day we can get out of the cage, she will take us to the capital. Use your savings to open the next cottage, and my sisters and I can make a living by singing opera and music, but we won’t do this dirty business anymore.”

Su Jin suddenly realized that it turned out that Mi Huaniang still had such thoughts, which is really admirable. Thinking that this woman died for Feng Jingyao, she couldn't help sighing, and said in a deep voice: "It's a good way, but it's a pity, Mi Hua girl It's gone."

The girls were startled, and asked in a hurry: "Young master, what do you mean when Mi Huaniang is gone?"

Su Jin sighed: "She has committed suicide, but she is a strong woman." Immediately, she told the situation of Mi Hua's suicide.

The women were mourning and weeping. Su Jin never thought that these women would have such deep feelings for Mi Hua. He thought they should hate Mi Hua, but unexpectedly it turned out like this. It seems that Mi Hua must have loved Mi Hua every day They are extremely caring and protective.

Bai Mudan burst into tears, crying and coughing, and after a while, she collapsed on the ground. Everyone hurriedly helped her up, pinched her and poured hot tea before waking her up. Su Jin saw that there were spots on the corners of her mouth. bloodstains, and asked in surprise, "What's going on here?"

A woman sobbed softly: "Don't you remember Mr. Su? Last time Mr. Su took the list from Sister Mudan and escaped, the adoptive father... no no no... old thief Feng suspected that she was in collusion with you. My sister was kicked in the chest, and she vomited blood at the time. If it wasn't for Mi Huaniang's timely maintenance, my sister would have been beaten to death that day. Later, the injury has not healed, and she often vomits blood. This will hear bad news, which will naturally affect the injury gone."

Su Jin said in amazement: "Why didn't she say anything, the injury seems serious."

All the girls mourned and wept, and helped the half-conscious Bai Mudan wipe her chest to calm her breath, making a mess.

Su Jin paced back and forth, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Well, since you have nowhere to go for the time being, I will go to Luzhou to settle down with me first. In the afternoon, I will ask someone to help you call a few carts. You fell far away Behind the convoy, when I arrive in Luzhou, I will arrange a separate house for you, and help Miss Bai Mudan ask a doctor to take medicine to recuperate, no matter what, heal the injury first, and then worry about it after the New Year, what do you think?"

The girls were overjoyed, they were finally able to leave Yangzhou to live a new life, and under the protection of Mr. Su, it was something that they never even dared to think about.

Su Jin bent down and touched Bai Mudan's cheek, and said softly: "Did you hear that? Let's relax first, and follow me to Luzhou to raise her. Your body is important."

Tears rolled down Bai Mudan like pearls, struggling to get up and kowtow to Su Jin, Su Jin hurriedly held her down; Bai Mudan said: "My lord, you are so kind and virtuous, it is hard for me to repay my sister's death."

Su Jin said: "What are you talking about? You almost died for me, and you should have done so."

Bai Mudan said: "Your favor will be reported later, let's not mention it for the time being, the slave family has an unfeeling request right now, please fulfill it, young master."

Su Jin said: "Say."

Bai Mudan burst into tears again, and sobbed, "I want to go to Mi Huaniang's grave with my sisters to burn some paper money before leaving. If it weren't for Mi Huaniang's care for our sisters, none of us sisters would have survived to this day."

Su Jin nodded and said: "You are all affectionate and righteous women, much nobler than many women in the world who pretend to be innocent. Of course, you must agree to this request. I will arrange it right away. You just pack up your clothes and wait here."

Su Jin walked out quickly, with rustling clothes behind her, and a group of prostitutes knelt on the ground.
