When Hu Du arrived at Dianmao, the Chengdu government office, he had already seen many officials gathered near the official building early, and all of them had solemn expressions.
Hu Du took a slight breath and did not inquire about anything. He turned around and nodded first. Then he was summoned by the soldiers and went to see Dong He.
On both sides of the main hall, some officials were queuing up with written documents waiting for Dong He's approval. When they saw Hu Du coming, everyone nodded and bowed to pay tribute to Hu Du. Regardless of the comparison between this official position and Hu Du's
, is it high or low?
Two days ago, Hu Du was just a small village chief in Cheguancheng. But now, even the most stupid people know that Hu Du's future is bound to be limitless. It doesn't matter whether he knew him before or not, just say hello or something.
It has to be done...
Hu Du smiled and nodded in response, and then entered the main hall.
Nowadays, although Hu Du's position has not changed, because Xu Shu needs to make final adjustments, the number of errands on his hands has increased, which is also in line with the current needs.
Among the newly added errands, the most important one is Chengdu's outer perimeter defense. From Qianqiu Pond to Wudan Mountain, from the Timber Pier to Wanli Bridge, a patrol must be carried out every day...
Don't underestimate such armed patrols. In Chengdu, which has just been in turmoil, it can indeed play a very important role in stabilizing people's hearts. And armed forces like Fox Du are almost a deterrent force in Chengdu. Dong He
Leaving such a matter to Hu Du is naturally equivalent to giving your back to Hu Du's guards.
After a while, Hu Du came out with the latest order. This time, he did not say hello to the officials outside the foyer. Instead, he raised his head and strode away. Then he arrived at the school grounds and gathered his troops.
The new mission was sent quickly from Xu Shu...
Ransomware.
The Li family of Guanghan confessed that the Qin family and Ren family of Mianzhu were involved in the conspiracy, and their homes were immediately captured and confiscated!
The Qin family, there is nothing to say. Qin Mi followed Li Miao and waved flags, saying that no matter how he died, he was not unjust. He had been imprisoned long ago and his house was ransacked, but the Ren family...
Ren was implicated in this case, which indeed surprised many people.
Although the birthplace of the Ren family is in Mianzhu, the Ren family also has Zhuangzi near Chengdu, which is located in the northeast of Chengdu. This is where Hu Du wants to copy.
In the city of Chengdu, due to the restrictions of a large city and few cities, generally speaking, the courtyards are not large. However, in the suburbs outside the city, there are no restrictions on the courtyards, so there is no need to be frugal in the use of land. The scale is quite grand. If those in later generations are allowed to live in Tianluo
When you see the low-rent real estate businessman who runs the dojo there, you will inevitably feel heartbroken.
The Ren family of Mianzhu is now headed by Ren An.
Before Ren An, he was unknown.
When Ren An was young, he studied under Yang Hou. He worked hard and excelled in his studies. Later, he entered the imperial college in Luoyang, the capital. After successfully studying the Five Classics, he returned to Mianzhu. He was invited by the prefect of Shu County to serve as a meritorious official and benefited from the governor of the state.
During the recruitment process, he soon resigned from his post and began to recruit disciples. Then his reputation became more and more famous. Although he was not known as "three thousand disciples", he was later recruited by Taiwei. Even after Liu Yan arrived in Sichuan,
, all treated him with courtesy and recruited him as an official, but Ren An still refused, and his fame became more and more shining.
Before Liu Yan officially broke with the imperial court, Liu Yan went out to recommend Ren An, saying, "An's fine temperament, strict moral integrity, strict discipline and lofty ideals, and his ability are the treasures of the country.
The blame..."
Later, Han Ling Emperor Liu Hong didn't know whether he didn't receive the seal, or he didn't have time to pay attention to Sichuan. Anyway, he didn't reply in time. But because of this incident, Ren An's reputation became even bigger, and many students in Sichuan
They are all proud of their disciples...
This is the classic model of the operation of the Han gentry's children climbing up and trying to jump up the hierarchy. Some of them work well, and they are the glory of several generations;
Leave a little legacy, as for the third generation, just two words, haha. I am not saying that these second and third generations must be so stupid and incompetent, but as long as these second and third generations are a little more relaxed, they can even go at a certain node.
If you make a wrong step, all the efforts you put in to climb up will be wiped out in an instant.
Ren An's ancestors did not have any decent sages. Before that, Ren was just a moderate landowner in Mianzhu. He could not die of hunger, but he was not considered a high-class person.
Ren An is very smart, so even if he has not formed the concept of class, it does not prevent him from choosing the easiest way to improve his class.
read.
And I chose the "Jinwen Jingxue" which is the easiest and most likely to produce results.
To a certain extent, Ren An succeeded.
Ren An knew that fame and fortune were related, but they were also contradictory, so after holding an official position for a while, he quickly quit and began to recruit disciples...
The process of this operation is similar to that of various Internet influencers in later generations.
Drainage and solidify powder.
Ren An did not choose to cash out in his generation, but chose to continue to stabilize and successfully create a framework belonging to the Ren family. As long as Ren An's son can continue smoothly...
Of course, in history, there was only this generation of Ren An, and the next generation did not leave any information at all. Perhaps it was because Ren An’s descendants failed to keep themselves when the Ren family expanded, or they encountered people like
This is the current situation.
The Li family of Guanghan bit out the Ren family and participated in the rebellion!
Dong Yong carried out the house raids in Chengdu. Those were just Dong He's actions for his son, and there was blood. However, Dong Yong cannot really be bound to the word "house raids" forever.
.
So this time the action was naturally carried out by Hu Du.
Ren's Zhuangzi was more than twenty miles away from Chengdu. Hu Du, with his men and horses galloping, arrived quickly.
But when Hu Du arrived in front of Ren's Zhuangzi, he saw that there was already a mess outside Zhuangzi. Many utensils were pushed down on the small square in front of Zhuangzi's gate, as if they were used as roadblocks, and as if they were not used.
The horse was formed, and the gate of Zhuangzi was closed. There were some strong men shouting something on the wall of the village.
Seeing this scene, Hu Du had some doubts in his heart...
You must know that the order to copy the Ren family went directly from Xu Shu to the hands of Dong He. After receiving the order, Hu Du himself did not delay at all and directly ordered his troops to come here. And now it seems that this Ren family Zhuangzi
The people inside seemed to have received the news earlier than themselves, and even had some "preparations"?
During the process of conveying this order, Hu Du believed that Dong He would not delay deliberately, and there was no need to do such a thing. Then it is somewhat interesting how the news about Ren came about, and what is even more interesting is that in Ren's Zhuangzi
People actually want to "resist arrest"?
It turns out that Hu Du was still thinking about whether he needed to be a little more restrained. After all, he was just capturing and ransacking the house, and he didn't say he wanted to kill him on the spot, nor did he want to massacre Zhuangzi. But what are the people in Ren's Zhuangzi thinking now?
Spying on military orders, stubbornly resisting arrest, no matter which one it is, is enough for Ren to drink!
And under such a situation, if Hu Du still holds back, then he may become a burial object of the Ren family!
Hu Du frowned slightly, and then did not issue any pre-war mobilization. He just pulled out the sword, pointed it at Zhuangzi, and shouted to the left and right: "Knock on the door of the village immediately! If anyone in the village dares to resist with weapons, he will not follow from above."
Those who are destined to die will be killed without mercy!"
Everyone in the military school following Hu Du loudly accepted the order, roared forward, and formed a small formation into a frontal arrow formation. When they rushed to the small square of Zhuangzi, the team split into three parts and one part.
Arriving at the village gate according to the original march, the other two roads were opened to the left and right, and they began to ride their horses around the village wall. At the same time, they also took off their bows and crossbows, aiming at the village wall, ready to shoot at any time.
The soldiers who entered the square began to jump off their horses and clear the so-called "horse-rejecting", or more appropriately "roadblocks" in the square.
Hu Du, on the other hand, led a small team to hold the battle from behind. When performing this task, Hu Du had no pride in fighting in battle, nor any excited thoughts of fighting, only doubts.
Does this kind of resistance make sense?
The people of the Ren family must have been in a hurry. Although there were many barriers, they were in a messy manner. The debris in the square was quickly cleared out. While cleaning up the debris, they also found a relatively thick round rod.
The wood was used as a bumper, and after no one answered the door, the log bumper was directly thrown to the village gate!
There were a few loud noises, and the village gate was already crumbling. At this time, villagers appeared from the walls on both sides. They seemed to be preparing to throw arrows, or throw earth and rocks outside the wall. They had already been prepared.
The military academy suddenly shouted: "Shoot!"
Arrows and crossbows roared.
A series of wailing screams sounded from the village wall.
Then there was another loud noise, and then the door of the village was knocked open...
"Enter!"
The soldiers attacking from the front didn't have time to clean up the many debris behind the door. They just used their shields to knock it open, or used their spears to open it, and then quickly opened a path. The cavalry behind them shouted, and everyone rushed forward, rushing into the village.
In the door, he quickly went back and forth among the retreating villagers and guests, driving them to different corners of the area.
At the same time, the cavalry on both wings running around the wall to seal off the area also sounded warnings or simply slashed with their swords to force back the people who were trying to escape from Zhuangzi's side.
Because Ren's Zhuangzi is usually used for teaching. There are ordinary students who stay and study, and there are also many Zhuangding disciples. There are really a lot of people in Zhuangzi at this moment, at least four or five.
Hundreds of people. But so many people are like four or five hundred sheep at the moment, bleating, being driven from here to somewhere, and then bleating from the other side and running to this side, but the interesting thing is these people
, no matter how you run, you will never get within the scope of Hu Du's men's swords and guns, just like these swords and guns have an invisible fence...
After about an hour, the people in Renzhuang were basically under control. Those who tried to resist with weapons were killed on the spot. Blood overflowed. The thick smell of blood made those "bleating sheep" become more and more attracted to each other.
Snuggling, curling up together.
Hu Du did not enter the village, but stood outside the village and commanded, "Strictly guard all intersections and watch every door! Send someone to report to Yousi immediately, and quickly send officials to come and conduct an inventory!"
It only took about an hour to break through Renzhuang, but the follow-up search of homes, head counting, and escorting people was busy until late at night...
Hu Du has been on duty here with his people. When the sun rises again the next day, the inventory in Renzhuang has come to an end. When he got the final list, Hu Du was slightly agitated.
Shockingly, there are only 30,000 to 40,000 gold and silver coins in Zhuang Naiguang's cellar, as well as many gold and silver ingots, as well as many gold and silver utensils...
Hearing this number, Hu Du couldn't help but be stunned. There was so much gold and silver in a small Zhuangzi. If it were extended to Sichuan and Shu...
Not to mention those belongings that are difficult to count at a moment’s notice.
At the same time, this is just a Chengdu Zhuangzi belonging to the Ren family. If it were really in Mianzhu, I don’t know how much money there is, how many land deeds, house deeds, and various hidden household registrations!
Is it so easy to earn three thousand disciples?
Although Hu Du himself was from a noble surname, from a certain point of view, among the current Han Dynasty, there are very few direct descendants of the local noble surnames who go to the front line to fight in person. Only people like Hu Du, who have some food and drink, but
Only those who have no better future will lick the blood from the blade.
So Hu Du didn't have much money at home. Hu Du took this list and seemed to understand something, but more doubts emerged in his heart...
In Chengdu Political Affairs Hall.
The upper seat is vacant, which means that although Xu Shu is not here, he is still the official in charge of this place. Dong He sits slightly sideways on the second seat, half facing the first seat, and half sideways facing the people below.
There were more than a dozen officials, big and small, with different expressions. Some were excited, some were hesitant, some were squinting and smiling, and some were concentrating with their eyes closed. Although there were not many in number, it seemed as if all the sentient beings in the world had fallen into the hall for a moment.
generally.
Originally, when Li Miao invaded Chengdu, the blood stains around the Zhengshi Hall had already been cleaned away, but now, it seems to have begun to linger under everyone's nose, revealing an atmosphere of murder.
After the news of Ren's house being confiscated reached Chengdu, these officials, big and small, gathered involuntarily at the political hall, asking for an audience, handing out notes, and looking for someone. In the end, Dong He simply asked these people to come together. Face to face in the hall...
A middle-aged scribe stood up, cupped his hands and said: "The Li family of Guanghan has acted against the will and is unpardonable. This is natural... But now, the Ren family, based on only one word, is rounding up and capturing, confiscating their property." , it’s not a big deal, I hope Duke Dong will be merciful so as not to chill the hearts of the people of Sichuan and Shu!”
Dong He glanced at him and said, "Du Guofu is willing to protect the Ren family with his wealth and life?"
"Huh? This..." Du Wei suddenly took a breath of cold air. What do you mean by this? Do you mean to get rid of me too?
Du Wei spoke up for Ren because Du Wei once studied under Ren An.
In later generations, there is often such a saying, "Today I am proud of such and such, and tomorrow I will be proud of such and such." Regardless of whether the person who said this believes it or not, HR will secretly laugh after hearing this. , but it is enough to explain the current situation.
Du Wei is not a fool, and he also knows that there are risks in speaking out like this, but the problem is that he has to say it!
The so-called "speaking for justice" may actually be more about speaking for "profit".
The scriptures of the Han Dynasty pay attention to an orderly inheritance, that is, which family the knowledge came from and the person who taught it must have a traceable context. Only in this way can the inheritance of the family scriptures be recognized. In fact, this is somewhat similar to It's like bloodline. You have to check three generations of ancestors. Even like Liu Bei, if you really can't find any name, you still have to rely on someone as much as possible...
It can be said that Du Wei and others are closely related to Ren An and the Ren family to a certain extent. The more they admire Ren An, the more orthodox Du Wei's knowledge is. The greater Ren An's reputation, the more This means that in the future Du Wei can use the Ren family as the source of his inheritance of Confucian classics, but now that the Ren family has been convicted of treason, how can Du Wei and others, and a group of disciples who once studied under Ren An, feel?
"What the state minister said is wrong!" Zhou Qun stood up and said with a smile but not a smile, "What we are doing here is to punish the national thieves and eliminate the traitors. How can we ignore the national affairs because of personal affairs?! Nowadays, Chengdu has The corruption in this place is all caused by the collusion of these thieves, who disregarded the lives of the people and plotted great rebellion! If the Ren family is pardoned, how can the people of Chengdu be safe and how can the people's anger be relieved?"
Zhou Qun, it's a family tradition. His father, Zhou Shu, also studied under Yang Hou.
so……
Are the peers friends, are the relationships between Zhou Shu and Ren An, Zhou Qun and Du Wei, just like everyday...
How many times had Du Wei ridiculed Zhou Qun openly or secretly before, and then Zhou Qun returned the favor doubly and doubly!
One is Du Wei and Du Guofu, and the other is Zhou Qun and Zhou Zhongzhi. They all have well-known names, but they make a perfect pair. They are not enemies but enemies.
Dong He did not answer Zhou Qun's words. He just looked at Du Wei and said lightly, "Du Guofu, are you willing to protect the Ren family with your wealth and life? If you really want to do this, you can write a military order..."
"Hiss..." Du Wei took another breath, then angrily tossed his sleeves and said, "I originally thought that Mr. Dong was benevolent and virtuous, and loved the people like a son, but he never thought that he was also...such a confusion of right and wrong. This kind of official is not good."
Just do it!』
After saying that, Du Wei took off the Jinxian crown from his head, slapped it heavily on the ground, then threw Yinshou and others on the ground, and then walked out of the lobby with his sleeves waving...
