Chapter Six Awe-inspiring righteousness
Chang Sihao changed his new clothes and led the two maids out of Yunchun Pavilion. He moved to the front yard. The craftsmen who built the house had stopped working and were waiting next to him. Chang Sihao met the team to welcome him, and stood side by side with Qin Ziyin standing behind Qin Menghuan. Qin Yi was hanging his arm and injured, and Gu Changxin and Mo Ruzhi were all there. Looking back, Qin Juexiang and Qibei Mountain were not seen.
As soon as Chen Sheng arrived beside Qin Langchuan, he whispered: "Young Master refuses to come out, and I don't know where to go in Beishan."
Qin Langchuan waved his hand and said it was not important. Chen Sheng retreated and stood behind Chang Sihao. The servants and maids stood in four positions in the two sides. Qin Langchuan then led his family out of the sedan hall.
One carriage is eight-carrying green sedan chairs parked in the courtyard, and the sedan chair is not dusty, and the jujube wooden sedan chair poles are still carried on people's shoulders. The eight sedan chairmen are burly, with chests and backs raised, and are extremely strong. They only look ahead and never look sideways. There are more than forty people with their waists and scimitars, standing on the side, and their clothes are bright.
Qin Langchuan came to the side of the sedan chair and knelt down and saluted: "Qin Langchuan, the grass-roots, led the Qin family to welcome the Lord Futai." After saying that, the Qin family and others also knelt down together.
The sedan chair rod sounded gently, and the sedan chairman slowly lowered the sedan chair. The police lifted up the curtain of the sedan chair. One official boot was stretched out and stepped steadily. Then the gold-edged black gauze crown above slowly revealed a corner. One was wearing a green jade ring, and his white-skinned hand stretched out to support the councillor's arm. After raising the force, the other official boot followed and stepped out of dust.
When the people of the Qin Mansion saw that the governor, Lord Yu, came out of the sedan chair, they each lowered their heads again.
Yu Yaoting straightened his body, swept to both sides, shook the folding fan in his hand, and smiled and said, "The Lord is going out this time. Brother Qin doesn't have to be too polite, get up quickly."
Chang Sihao looked sideways and saw that he was not wearing an official uniform, wearing a purple satin peony robe, with a green jade belt on his waist, and two small white jade fish hanging from his silver waist, and a folding fan was pinched in front of his abdomen. On it, he drew beautiful mountains and rivers and flowing rivers. Looking up at his face, his silkworm's eyebrows were thin, his nose was straight as if it were cut, and his five strands of ink beard were about one foot and four inches long. He was covered with his chest, his temples were like a knife cut, and his silk board was straight, and there was no mess. There was a soft smell of sunshine in his eyes, and there was a crow's feet at the corner of his eyes, but it did not look old, and his charm increased. He stood in the courtyard, and he was so elegant and graceful.
I heard what he said just now, it was definitely because I overheard the person who spoke last night. I thought to hear the tone of his speech at that time, and I was so disgusting and annoying that I couldn't say. Now I saw him, I felt a little intimate.
The sedan pole was raised from behind, Yu Yaoting took his robe and stepped out. Qin Langchuan thanked and stood up, and led the guests into the mansion. Eight conscripts helped to protect the left and right, and the Qin family's relatives followed on both sides.
Yu Yaoting walked in a square step, walked steadily, entered the two doors, glanced at the main hall halfway up, and smiled and said, "Duke Qin is worthy of the richest man in Jin, and the palace is more grand than the governor's yamen of the lower-ranking officials. Is Brother Qin going to build an open palace?"
Everyone in the Qin family changed their faces, thinking that no matter how rich the people are, they would have the principle of building an open palace, that is the crime of rebellion.
Qin Langchuan hurriedly smiled and said, "I don't know anything about it. A bandit gang came on the night before, trying to rob property. Fortunately, the magistrate sent a public servant to rescue him and tried hard to kill him. The thieves not only robbed the property, but also destroyed the main hall of our mansion, and also collapsed the southern wall, and the grass-roots were renovated."
Chang Sihao laughed in his heart, thinking that your stare and lies are the same as the truth. If I don’t know the truth, I really want to believe it.
Yu Yaoting held the fan and tweeted it in his palm, and suddenly said, "Oh! That's right, yesterday, Grandpa Sun asked for a meeting and said that there was a report of the bandits, but the officials had too much official duties and were too busy for a while and had never received them. I think this is what he was going to say."
Qin Langchuan said: "Yes, these small things are nothing. The Futai University is working hard for the country and working hard. Every day, all the people in Jinzhong rely on the kindness and blessing of the adults. Just like a baby's parents, adults should rest in time and not be overworked."
Yu Yaoting shook his head and sighed: "Mencius said: The people are the most important, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important. The affairs of the people are the biggest thing. If the public is not good, how can the people live in peace? Bandits are so rampant in Taiyuan City. This is the dereliction of duty by my official and all subordinates!" Chang Sihao remembered the *** in his house last night. He was angry and finally suppressed it. He cursed his grandma several times in his heart.
Qin Langchuan said: "Sir, I have a lot of words."
The group came to Zhiyu Xuan, and Qin Langchuan gave Yu Yaoting to the main seat. The two of them sat down, and Qin Yi was behind his father. The servant presented tea and sent someone to stay outside the pavilion. The rest of the Qin family were also blocked under the corridor.
After making a polite manner, Yu Yaoting asked Qin Yi, "Why is the eldest son hanging his arm? Could it be that the bandits were injured?" Qin Yi frowned slightly and said, "That's right." Yu Yaoting sat upright, tilted his beard and sighed: "Oh, there are chaos in the family and national sorrows, it's really a troublesome!"
Qin Yi glanced at his father and thought to himself that he was about to get to the point.
Qin Langchuan said lowly: "Sir, it happened that Caomin recently learned about a secret matter and was about to report it."
Yu Yaoting was stunned: "What's the matter?"
Qin Langchuan leaned out and leaned closer and said, "The Tatar Khan Altan led his army to invade the territory and will arrive in Datong soon." As soon as this said, even Qin Yi was shocked, thinking that we were thinking about how to avoid this matter, but why did Dad poke it out first? He glanced at him sideways, wondering what he was thinking about.
Yu Yaoting's expression changed slightly: "Where did you know?"
Qin Langchuan leaned back and put his hands on the armrest of the chair, calmly saying, "The Qin family also has several small businesses on the Tatar border, which is the news that the local shopkeeper heard the news." Yu Yaoting pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Is the news true?" Qin Langchuan nodded and said, "This matter is not small. After the grass people learned about it, they wanted to report it to the adults immediately, but the bandits were killed at home, which was delayed for a day."
Yu Yaoting's eyes were concentrated, and waited for a while, saying, "Yu received the favor of the emperor and assisted in the military affairs of the three sides, but he always felt powerless and was constrained everywhere. Datong's strategic position is extremely important. At present, the troops are insufficient and the money and food are insufficient. If Altan really comes to attack, it will be worrying..."
Qin Langchuan stood up and said calmly: "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country. As a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, how can Qin stand up? The Qin family has some strong servants and guards, all with loyalty and righteousness. They are even more loyal and righteous, and they feel that the adults love the people's morality and cannot repay them. At this time of national crisis, they just devote themselves to their efforts. Qin has sent a message and summoned people to join Taiyuan soon, so that they can all be promoted by the adults." He bowed.
Yu Yaoting was overjoyed: "That's great! At that time, I will order General Ma to set up places to recruit volunteers in the urban and rural areas. If the Qin family arrives, they can report to other places and obey the orders. Then they will form a team to go to the national crisis together, defeat Altan, and make sure that he will not dare to underestimate my Ming Dynasty again!"
Everyone in the corridor was full of people with deep internal strength, clever ears and eyes. They could hear clearly what the words in the Xuan were. Chen Shengyi was quite excited and rubbed his hands and said quietly: "Where the Tartars went, they slaughtered the people like dogs, robbed them all, and their methods were very cruel. This time we could go with the army to fight and kill the Tartars, which would be the best!" Chang Sihao thought, nodded in a daze, thinking: "Qin Langchuan would actually say this. Could it be that I misjudged him?" After seeing off Governor Yu, the Qin Mansion breathed a sigh of relief, and the craftsmen started to do their jobs again. Qin Juexiang heard the decisions made by his grandfather, and he was so angry that he couldn't leave the house.
Two days later, the main hall and wall of the Qin Mansion had been repaired, and everything was as usual. It was said that when the Qin family heard the news, they should have come to Taiyuan one after another, but there was no movement. Chen Sheng and his friends went to the street to inquire, and there were no soldiers to set up offices to recruit volunteers. They felt strange and thought that the military situation was urgent. Why was Governor Yu and General Ma so inefficient in their work, and they were even worse than plasterers?
It was approaching Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Qin Mansion was busy, with lights and decorations, customizing mooncakes, and joyful things. Chen Shengyi was responsible for everything, and put this matter aside. Chang Sihao was so tired that he went out to buy goods with him. When he walked to the shopping street, he saw artists juggling and admired them everywhere. He felt a little relieved. Suddenly, he heard the sound of shouting and scolding. A soldier drove away from a distance, and the pedestrians scattered. Later, a tall horse and a tweed sedan chair appeared. The horseman was wearing military uniforms and a long sword on his waist. Chen Sheng was stunned when he saw it: "Isn't this General Ma?"
