Section 23 Dong Ping
Wu Ge sent people to the town to report that after a while, a military horse came out of the town. He was the first general, with a helmet and armor, and an arrow bent his bow. He went into the bow bag and quiver. There were two small yellow flags on the side, with five golden characters on each of them, and wrote: "Heroes and two generals are the heroes, and the heroes are the marquis of thousands of households."
Wu Ge thought to himself: "It's just a military officer, so arrogant?" He kept silent and urged the horse to meet him.
It was Dong Ping who hung a pair of four-foot iron spears on the victory hook and laughed exaggeratedly: "Dong Ping stays here and finally sees the angel today."
Wu Ge also smiled happily: "I heard about the name of the two guns for a long time. When I saw him today, I was indeed extraordinary and majestic."
Dong Ping then jumped off the horse and met Shangguan.
Wu Ge saw his arrogant attitude in his eyes, calmly accepted his visit as the deputy envoy of Dongye, and then rode into the town with Dong Ping.
Wu Ge asked: "In addition to the capital magistrate, what other officials are there in the town?"
Dong Ping hesitated for a moment before saying, "The parents of the Dongping Prefect Cheng also stayed here."
Cheng Wanli, the prefect of Dongping, had also learned some things before Wu Ge entered Shandong, and knew that Cheng Wanli was not very respectful to Zhao Bozhen and was at the two ends of the rat between Bianliang and Hangzhou.
Seeing Wu Ge fall into deep thought, Dong Ping said: "Cheng's parents told Mo Jiang more than once that he wanted to resign and took his whole family to live in the south. Mo Jiang repeatedly dissuaded him, so that he could survive the difficulties together."
Oh, Cheng Wanli thought of taking refuge in the south? Wu Ge thought that this is also human nature. Who doesn’t want to leave a chaotic place? However, the officials were responsible for defending the territory, so he ran to Jiangnan like this, and it was still possible that he would have a situation.
As the two were talking, they saw in front of a big mansion in the center of the town. This place should be the rich man in the town. Cheng Wanli stood at the door to greet him.
After everyone sat down in the house, Cheng Wanli briefly introduced the situation around Dongping, which was very organized. Seeing Wu Ge nodding slightly, Cheng Wanli suddenly fell to the ground and requested to resign.
Wu Ge pretended not to know the reason, so he asked for it carefully.
Cheng Wanli said that scholars are powerless and cannot take on great responsibilities, and they are by their side
He had only one daughter, for fear that she would encounter an unexpected situation in this chaos. The Song Dynasty was not short of him, a scholar, to guard it, so he was willing to give up the wise.
Wu Ge comforted him and saw that Cheng Wanli was not a fake, so he agreed. Cheng Wanli immediately asked his master to bring out a bunch of books, all of which were written by Dongping Mansion and handed them over to Wu Ge on the spot.
Wu Ge asked the reporter room to collect it. Seeing that the delivery of Dongping Mansion was about to be completed, Dong Ping suddenly shouted: "Cheng's parents went south, and there were many bandits along the way. He might encounter a golden thief. How could a daughter take risks?"
Cheng Wanli suddenly changed color. How could a man ask about the reason for his relatives? He immediately said goodbye to Wu Ge and retreated into the inner hall.
Dong Ping was busy organizing and asked Wu Ge to live in the house. When the servants retreated, Dong Ping left a step and said to Wu Ge: "Defense envoy, Dong Ping thought that it should not be allowed to go south." Dong Ping called Cheng Wanli's name directly.
“Why?”
"Even if Cheng Wanli resigned from office, he should go to Bianliang to meet with the sages and submit to the village. He just spoke to the guardian envoy and went south to join the captain... King Kang had two intentions, and the guardian envoy should take his official position and escort him back to the capital for his crime."
Bianliang is currently siegeing the city. Whether it is returning to Bianliang to resign or escorting him back to Bianliang to question, he needs to break through the blockade of the Jin soldiers. How can Cheng Wanli, a civil servant, and his family still brings his family?
Wu Ge waved his hand: "Super Dong Dulu retreat first, I will discuss it tomorrow if you have any questions."
The next morning, Wu Ge got up and took his personal soldiers to inspect. Suddenly, a cavalry commander arrived: "My family chief asked me to report the guards. Cheng Wanli escaped, and my family chief chief went to catch him and came back."
Wu Ge was shocked. Cheng Wanli left without saying a word. Dong Ping was also bold and dared to chase and kill the retired officials without asking for orders.
Wu Ge hurried back to his residence, dressed neatly, and took people to the intersection to look around.
Seeing noon, more than a hundred riders came in front of him, and the first one was Dong Ping. There were two heads hanging in front of his horse, and a woman was placed horizontally on the horse's back.
When he saw Wu Ge, Dong Ping jumped off the horse and reported to Wu Ge: "The fugitive Cheng Wanli and his wife have been killed, and the head is here." He pointed to the woman who was standing on the horse, "The fugitive's female family, I will also capture her. Please reward me with the Lord."
Killing parents and taking off children! Is this still a human being? Wu Ge was furious: "Dong Ping, do you know the crime?"
"The guards, Cheng Wanli escaped at the last moment, and he should be punished." Dong Ping was still afraid that Wu Ge would not understand the situation: "The soldiers of Dongping Prefecture all obeyed my orders, and Zhang Qing, the chief of the military and horses of Dongchang Prefecture, are like brothers and sisters. Don't let the soldiers of the Song Dynasty feel disheartened."
Wu Ge was stunned. He had already realized Dong Ping's domineering arrogance, but he would never have expected that Dong Ping would be so stupid and openly threatened the envoys sent by the court.
Wu Ge shouted: "Take this rebel to me."
Several personal soldiers followed the order and wanted to hold Dong Ping up. Unexpectedly, Dong Ping used his two guns with great force and broke free in an instant. He ran towards his mount.
At this time, Suo Chao rushed out behind Wu Ge, and took Dong Ping with axe and iron armor.
Dong Ping had no time to jump on his mount, so he had to run away, let his personal soldiers block Suo Chao for the time being, took one of his horses, and fled in panic. Most of his subordinates escaped with him, and the rest surrendered.
Wu Ge asked someone to remove the Miss Cheng family and asked in detail. It turned out that Dong Ping had long coveted her beauty and asked Cheng Wanli for marriage, but Cheng Wanli refused. This time Cheng Wanli went south, and Dong Ping thought he was seizing the opportunity, so he wanted to rob him. When Cheng Wanli and his wife stopped him, they were killed by Dong Ping.
"Miss, what relatives do you have?"
"There are some distant relatives in the folk, but their parents die, so I'm afraid these distant relatives can't count on them." She is Cheng Wanli's biological daughter, Shiruo's bright pearl in her hand, but once her parents die, she goes to rely on relatives and friends and live under someone else's roof, and it depends on the other person's face and his status is not much higher than that of the concubine's daughter.
This is also another time and space. When Dong Ping killed her parents, she still married Dong Ping because as long as she didn't want to die, marrying a general to become a wife is her best ending.
"What are the plans for the girl?"
"It depends entirely on the adults."
Wu Ge felt it was a bit tricky, so he asked Miss Cheng to go down and rest first and discuss with the recording master.
The master said, "It is better to be included in the side room than a master."
"Then what is the difference between me and Dong Ping?"
The master laughed secretly. In this era, women without fathers and children are not as good as goods. The master is still too chivalrous. The master suggested: "It is better to send them to Hejian for such female family matters. Please ask Mrs. Xuan Shuai to leave."
Wu Ge was about to praise him, but then hesitated and said, "But Xuan Shuai has a minor illness."
The master smiled and said, "What will happen to Mrs. Xuan Shuai do with me? Besides, even if you stay in Mr. Xuan's mansion, it may not be a blessing for this woman."
Wu Ge thought about it and found his most reliable personal soldiers leader and asked her to escort Miss Cheng to Hejian.
