When the terrible news came from Zuo Liangyu, Wang Ting found that he didn't seem to hate Yun Zhao so much.
This is an extremely strange emotion.
In this Lantian County incident, the Wang family lost their eldest son, youngest son, and eldest grandson. It seemed that the casualties were heavy. Compared with Yang Sichang and Zuo Liangyu, this result is quite gratifying.
At least the direct descendants of the Wang family are still there, unlike the Yang Sichang family who were almost all killed.
It’s not like Zuo Liangyu not only lost his daughter, but also lost one of his eyes, let alone three of his most trusted generals lying dead on the street.
The Wang family only lost population, Yang Sichang was almost wiped out, and Zuo Liangyu suffered the greatest loss in his control of the army.
Wang Ting had a lot of dealings with Zuo Liangyu’s daughter Zuo Chunfeng. The woman who was as warm as the spring breeze, who swore not to marry but would support her father and brother on the ladder to heaven, died now?
When he thought of the happy scenes when getting along with Zuo Chunfeng, Wang Ting just wanted to leave this dangerous place in Nanjing as soon as possible.
Wang is not afraid of the wind and rain in the court, but he is really afraid of Yun's banditry, which only kills people and is unreasonable.
There are three new graves in the ancestral cemetery at home. White flags are fluttering in the lively Wang family mansion. There are constant cries in the back house all day long, and it looks gloomy and gloomy.
So, on the third day after receiving Zuo Liangyu's letter, Wang Ting got on the Jinyiwei's ship going south on errands, and sailed away with a group of juniors.
Wang Wenzhen stayed at the ferry for a long time, until the giant boat on which his son and grandchildren were riding disappeared, and he was unwilling to leave. In just one month, his hair had turned completely white.
Today, he specially brought an old servant to see his son off without a single guard around him.
He wanted to use this method to tell Yunshi Lantian that if Yunshi wanted to vent his anger, he could be killed and he should not embarrass his descendants again.
A man sat alone in the pavilion without drinking tea or alcohol, and had no idea of composing poetry. He just sat in the pavilion with white hair and tried his best to straighten his back and maintain his integrity. The last bit of pride of a scholar.
His waiting finally came to fruition.
A young teahouse owner who had been waiting for him for a long time and wanted to do his business sent him a piece of paper, saying that a customer had sent it to him.
Wang Wenzhen opened the piece of paper with trembling hands, and saw a line of words written on the piece of paper: This matter is over, you don't embarrass me, I won't hurt you, if you are unwilling, Let's do it again.
After Wang Wenzhen read the letter, in front of the teahouse owner, he asked the old servant to light a fire note, burn the letter, and gave the boss a thank you gift of one tael of silver.
Then he said to the old servant: "Bring the donkey over, let's go home."
Yun's actions did not leave any opening for mediation, not at all. From the beginningAfter Shiyun decided that these people were enemies, he completely closed the door to negotiations and acted ruthlessly from the beginning.
"Some people can be discussed slowly, such as Li Dingguo, Sun Chuanting, and Lu Xiangsheng. If you have more patience with these people, you will always have good results."
Facing Yun Yang who was eating sweet potatoes, Yun Zhao always showed the utmost patience.
"You have put the most effort into Hong Chengchou."
"This man is different. He is too smart, so he is very smart. Once this kind of person loses hope, he will He can do anything without a bottom line.
We have to give him hope. As long as there is a glimmer of hope in his heart, Hong Chengchou will be a qualified bureaucrat.
But. , Don’t expect this person to have good personal ethics.
This person has already read the book thoroughly. ”
Yun Zhao turned his head after finishing his words. I have watched Yun Yang eat roasted sweet potatoes for many years, and now I still can’t stand it. Especially the way this guy talks to you with a pulpy sweet potato in his mouth makes you just want to stay away from him.
"We will just kill Yang Sichang and Zuo Liangyu from now on. The problem is that Wang Wenzhen does not seem to be a very evil person. Why do you have to punish him so severely?"
Yun Zhao looked at Yushan and said: "What I hate most is that such a person's personal character is impeccable, but he can gain reputation for himself in the name of benefiting a small group of people, causing the interests of more people to be harmed.
It’s fine if he doesn’t understand the consequences, but he is an understanding person.
So, as the ancients said, if you have the intention to do good, you will not be rewarded even if you do good, but if you do not have the intention to do evil, you will not be rewarded. Evil will not be punished. Wang Wenzhen is the kind of person who does evil with intention, no different from Yang Sichang and Zuo Liangyu."
Yun Yang rolled his eyes at Yun Zhao and said, "How about this, tell this fool like me." After the phone call, have you become more clear-minded?"
Yun Zhao said: "When you use this kind of flattery in the future, remember to be more rounded and not so rough."
Yun Yang chuckled and said, "What I want to ask the most is why you didn't kill Zuo Mengeng, but why did you kill Zuo Liangyu's daughter?"
Yun Zhao looked at it deeply. Yun Yang glanced at him and said, "This is a smart question. Since you have read the information about Zuo Liangyu, haven't you noticed that Zuo Liangyu's daughter is already twenty-four years old and not yet married?"
Yun Yang said: "Maybe she is too ugly, or maybe she is too fat to marry."
Yun Zhao said angrily: "Think about it carefully, as long as she is Zuo Liangyu's daughter, How could he not get married? A man who marries a girl from this kind of family would never go for looks.
You may not know the reason why Zuo Liangyu has been able to expand so much in the past two years. Soon, his daughter took the greatest credit.
A person who led the army more viciously than the bandits, not only did he not receive much criticism over the years, but he rose steadily.
In the end, she was able to establish relationships with people like Yang Sichang and Wang Wenzhen. The biggest contributor was her daughter.
As for Zuo Mengeng, he is just a fool.
Since Zuo Liangyu will become our enemy sooner or later, if I don’t kill the smart one at this time, am I going to leave the smart one for her to become my enemy in the future? "
Yun Yang finished the last bite of the roasted sweet potato and sucked it. Yun Zhao resisted and waited for him to finish. Then he heard Yun Yang continue to ask: "This matter is big enough to reach the sky, Emperor. Why don't you listen and ask?
Yun Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, patted Yun Yang on the shoulder and said, "If you can ask this question, I won't treat you as a fool in the future."
I tell you, countless memorials must have been sent to the emperor about this matter. The problem is - the emperor does not believe it! "
Yun Yang's eyes widened and he said: "How could the emperor not believe it? I read the documents and found that Yang Sichang's private house in Dongtiao Hutong was almost flooded with blood.
Twenty-seven men wearing heavy armor have been wreaking havoc in someone's private house for half an hour. It would be strange if Jin Yiwei and Dongchang didn't know about this.
Yun Zhao smiled and said: "The dead people are real. The problem is that the emperor always wants to know why people die. If it is because of a dispute between Lantian County and Yang Sichang, the emperor will definitely ask the Ministry of Household Affairs immediately." Have you paid Lantian County’s autumn taxes this year? Have you paid Lantian County’s annual taxes in full?
When he discovered that this year, like previous years, we had completed the tax quota ahead of schedule and paid the full amount ahead of schedule.
After asking Jin Yiwei again, I found that a large number of forces in Lantian County are still active in the Guihua City area.
In addition, he had just learned that the Lantian County Township Warriors had killed 1,200 genuine Buddhist slaves in Xiaoyaotan. What do you think the emperor would do?
You must not think that the emperor does not know the purpose of Yang Sichang, Wang Wenzhen, Zuo Liangyu and others to torture Lantian County.
With Lantian County in our hands, the emperor will continue to receive taxes from Lantian County. With this money, the emperor will have the confidence to speak.
If Lantian County was handed over to Yang Sichang, Wang Wenzhen, and Zuo Liangyu, the emperor could predict that Lantian County would be finished, and any future attempts to collect taxes from Lantian County would be in vain.
The reason why I made things so cruel this time was to show the emperor.
We have offended three people to death in one fell swoop. If we want to live peacefully in the future, we can only hug his lap.
If we use the relationship in the court to resolve this matter, the emperor will lament all night long. In the eyes of the emperor, we are now a lonely minister who wants to do something!
Li Hongji is finished for the time being, Zhang Bingzhong surrendered, and the emperor believes that even if we in Lantian County have the intention to rebel, we will not risk the disapproval of the world at this time.
He can tolerate Zhang Bingzhong, but what can't he tolerate with Lantian County, which has always been loyal to him?
Especially the way we do things makes the emperor thinkWe are a bunch of fools!
I think I am a strong young man, and as long as I give him time, he will be able to subdue me. "
Yun Yang chuckled and said: "You are a strong person yourself!
Yun Zhao raised his head and looked at the snow-capped Yushan Mountain again and said: "These days, all we have left to live is bravery and tenacity!" ”
