Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 593
The Qian Zong who was beaten to death by Xia Yuancheng on the school grounds did not remember his name or surname. They only knew that he had a bulbous nose, which was red all day long, so everyone called him "Suantou".

This Suantou gambles and drinks excessively, he is like a beast, his position is the size of a sesame seed in the Beijing camp, and he has no benefits or benefits, the pay is either drunk by him or lost by his bets, and he does not give a penny to his family. The mother-in-law can only sew and mend by herself, and do some needlework to support her two children.

If it's just like this, it's all right, but this guy likes to go home and beat his wife after drinking too much garlic. This is disgusting, and his colleagues in the army also look down on him.

I don't know what went crazy this year, nine times out of ten it was because of drinking and burning out the brain, and dared to scold the lieutenant while reviewing the soldiers, didn't he deserve to be beaten to death?

It's okay that he died, what about the orphans and widows in the family, there are those kind-hearted people who want to go and have a look. After entering this Suantou's house, they saw that the house was in a mess, no one took care of it, no one took care of it, Suantou's corpse Already restrained, the thin-skinned coffin was buried casually in wasteland.

Seeing the widow report that their daughter was sitting in the house blankly, she seemed to have no energy, it was really pitiful.

Everyone swept the snow in front of their own houses. Seeing this miserable appearance, everyone left a few pennies and sighed, and that's it. He looked miserable, and death might be a good thing for his wife and children.

But the neighbors in the neighborhood are a little strange. This Suantou family has a son and a daughter. Suantou goes home and beats his wife, but he never does anything to the children. Occasionally, when he is paid or wins, he often sells some snacks to the children. Why is there no such thing today? Meet the son.

The widow took her daughter to guard the zero for two days, and the next day packed up the things that could be taken away from home, and headed west. Some people asked about it, but they only answered back to their mother's house.

The widow took her daughter out of the city, and after walking for a few miles, she saw a carriage parked at the rest of the road, and a driver on the shaft was dozing off with a straw hat on his face. Trembling, he stopped there and hesitated, but still dragged his daughter and walked over.

As soon as she came to the front, the coachman sat up suddenly, the widow took two steps back in fright, the coachman looked coldly at the widow and the cowering little girl behind her, finally shook his head, and leaned into the carriage , A six or seven-year-old boy was caught.

The boy was stuffed with a cloth ball in his mouth, and he was struggling when he was dragged out. The driver glared at him, and immediately became honest. The driver turned his head and said to the widow:
"Wait and tear off this cloth ball yourself."

After speaking, she pulled a small bundle from the carriage and threw it on the ground. The bundle made a muffled sound when it hit the ground. The weight was really heavy. While comforting her son and daughter, the widow reached out to pick up the bundle and opened it tremblingly. White money, and a piece of white paper.

The widow stared at the pile of things, her tears couldn't stop flowing down, and she tried her best not to cry.

"200 taels of silver, and two miles away is the little Zhuangzi. The land deed of Zhuangzi is also here, and the two are cleared."

The coachman spoke coldly, and the widow choked up and nodded. The coachman glanced at the widow and the two children beside him, fell silent for a while, and then sat on the shaft of the car and said in a deep voice:
"Seeing you two children, I think of the two cubs who were starved to death at home back then. Suantou's family, hurry up and cash out your Zhuangzi, take the money and go far away!"

Hearing this, the widow raised her head in confusion, the coachman shook the reins, drove the carriage, and said in a deep voice:

"I was going to kill all three of you today, but when I saw your two children, I couldn't do it. Let's go!"

After the coachman finished speaking, he drove away with the carriage. The widow turned pale and stayed there at a loss, until the girl tore Seb from the boy's mouth, and the boy burst into tears. Then the widow knelt on the ground He kowtowed a few times towards the direction the carriage was leaving, packed up the money, and hurriedly dragged the child away.

The orphans and widows of Suantou's family did not go to that Zhuangzi, and no one saw them in the capital and around.

The life and death of a thousand generals is nothing in the capital. The most important thing for the senior officials and dignitaries in the capital is Zhang Juzheng's illness.

There are many rumors, and I don't know which is true or which is not, but they all say that the heat poison on Zhang Ge's body will not go away, but it is getting worse.

Zhang Juzheng promoted Xia Yuancheng, the deputy general of the Beijing camp. Some time ago, in order to protect Xia Yuancheng's position, he even refuted the empress dowager's elder brother Li Wenquan's application for an official position.

Zhang Ju was recuperating at home, Xia Yuancheng had to come to greet him, Zhang Ge always came out to meet guests with a white cloth scarf on his head, except for his abnormally red face, he looked pretty good.

However, after Xia Yuancheng came back, he always felt irritable and restless. That Boss Qian was late and scolded wildly on the school grounds. Although he was ordered to kill him on the spot, Xia Yuancheng became even more anxious.

Two days after the incident, Zhang Juzheng recovered and went to court as usual, but someone sent Xia Yuancheng a letter. There was no signature on the envelope, but the seal was sealed with wax.

After opening the letter, there was only one sentence on the letter, "Zhang Juzheng, you are the deputy general of the Beijing camp. If Zhang Juzheng is not here, what are you doing and how do you deal with yourself?"

After reading the letter, Xia Yuancheng sat in his seat for a while, but lit the letter in his hand directly on the lamp, and then asked the personal guard where the letter came from, and they all said it was stuffed in, no Know when and by whom.

After Xia Yuancheng asked once, he didn't ask again, but the lights in his room were turned off very late.

There were so many things going on in the capital, and everything that the Department of Public Security and other places could find out was organized into letterheads and newspapers, and sent to Tianjin Wei one by one.

Yu Siqiang fled north to Mongolia, Yu Yuangang committed suicide by taking poison, and the rest were deposed as ordinary people. This result surprised Wang Tong.

The ambush by the Tartar cavalry outside the Xuan Mansion was related to Yu's family. This incident was expected by Wang Tong. What surprised him was that he was able to find out the truth so quickly.

Compared to his astonishment, everyone in Tianjin Wei who knew the results of the investigation would yell curses there, or they would shout out loudly. Thousands of cavalrymen rushed to the grassland. If the formation is effective, it is very likely that all the confessions will be made on the grassland.

The Yu family's thoughts are so vicious, but fortunately he is still a nobleman of Ming Dynasty and an in-law of the Tian family, Wang Tong doesn't feel happy about the emotions below.

The imperial envoy was sent a letter in the middle of the night, reporting the Yu family's mischief. It was clear that someone lost his car to protect his handsome man. Such a timely broken arm of a strong man made Wang Tong even more afraid.

Everything in Tianjin Wei is functioning normally. Compared with the ninth year of Wanli, it is a bit more prosperous. This is also expected. A large sum of money from the capital has been invested in Tianjin Wei to sell land, open stores, and participate in various businesses. , as well as all kinds of consumption, all make Tianjin Wei more prosperous.

The high-ranking officials and dignitaries of the capital began to feel uneasy about Tianjin Wei. Although Wang Tong made this place prosperous, no one believed that it would last long. Fighting wits and courage, just survived day by day, and even made this situation.

High-ranking officials and nobles have a lot of money in their hands and don’t know how to spend it. The property purchased by the capital is too eye-catching. There is also a limit to the purchase of land in the hometown. There are risks in lending money to pay interest. good.

In the past, if I wanted to do this, I could only participate in the trade with the Tartars and the business and sea trade in the south of the Yangtze River. The former needs to be related to the border town, and there is a risk of being caught as a handle at any time. The latter is too far away, so don’t worry. I can't take care of it, and the crime of Tongwa is not a joke.

In political disputes, even if something that everyone knows well is not in compliance with the rules, it will be exposed as evidence of attack, so everyone is careful every step of the way.

But Tianjin Wei is different. As long as you open a store to participate in the transaction, there is more than [-]% chance of making money. Through Tianjin Wei, all kinds of goods from land and sea are collected, and then distributed to places outside the Great Wall, Liao Town, Wayang and Daming. It's all profiteering, and there is no reason not to make money.

If you don't want to worry about it and are afraid of taking risks, you can throw your money in the Sanjiang Bank. This bank guarantees a certain amount of interest every year. It can also do business for you and buy a store. You don't have to worry about it, and you can still collect money on the ground. It earns a lot, but it is safe. After all, it is a joint venture between several dignitaries in the capital and Wang Tong, which is also reassuring.

According to the reports from the servants assigned by the Haihe River, Shen Wang came and left in the first month, and came again in April, but this time he lived in that house and has not left until now, and even bought a house nearby to live with his entourage. , as if he was going to stay for a long time, listening to Zhang Shiqiang's report.

Wang Tong just said in a deep voice:
"If he wants to live, let him live, don't be taken away by him... Is everything settled in the Li family?"

"Returning to the adults, the people have already lived in, the maids and servants are all ready to serve the people, the wife has already made an agreement, and the young one in his family has also been arranged to enter a private school. It's hard to say about raising people, but the middle one We are still sure about being a scholar."

Hearing Zhang Shiqiang's words, Wang Tong nodded, and asked in a low voice even though there was no one in the room:
"Have you got in touch with the capital?"

"Return to my lord, there was a letter back yesterday, but no one has come to the door, my lord, how about using Eunuch Zou and the others..."

"No need! You know me, the less people know, the better!!"
