Chapter 45 Chapter 105 Ambition

County Captain Zhao thought to himself, if this case comes to fruition in his own hands, he will be appreciated by Mr. Zhao. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.It's just that Ding Hao's strategy of abandoning his pawns to protect his handsome man has many loopholes. One mistake, if Xu Muchen bites back, the Ding family will lose everything. What will Ding Hao do then? After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help thinking about the last time the official seal was stolen. Last time, with the help of Ding Hao, he got back his official seal. Maybe he could use Ding Hao's help to exchange for a bigger official seal this time.As an official, it is extremely difficult to transfer from a barren land to a rich land. Said: So, what does my brother want to do for my brother?

Ding Hao pointed to the account books scattered everywhere, and said: Ding Hao was ordered by Master Ding to help the government clean up the account books, but all the account books were copied by the government, so I ask Brother Zhao to agree to let me clean up the account books. The little brother will take care of himself. Zhao Xianwei nodded in agreement, and said: Brother Ding, I have always wanted to recruit you.The last time I mistakenly thought you were the young master of the Ding family. I thought you might not be willing to abandon your family business to become an official in Linqing, so I never mentioned it to you.When I arrived in Bazhou, I sent someone to investigate and found out that you are a steward of Ding's residence.To be an official next to me is much more glorious than the steward of Nading Mansion.It's a matter here, if you are interested, you can cast it under my door.

Ding Hao was a little moved. People who have been immersed in the officialdom for many years mostly only care about profit and loss. Zhao County Lieutenant is planning his own future, and he can still think about my future. Seeing that he didn't agree with him, County Captain Zhao persuaded him earnestly: Kunpeng is good at flying against the wind, and a wise man should use his strength to fly.The heaven and the earth are in harmony, so that the nectar will fall.Taking advantage of the situation and not being responsible to others, it is possible to choose people and take charge of the situation.My brother has such a thorough understanding of a borrowed word, is he not a wise man, how can he borrow the power of a brother if he borrows the power of Mr. Na Ding?Although I don't dare to say how much future you will have, it is better than you in Dingjiazhuang.Brother Ding might as well think about it.

Ding Hao thought in his heart: This County Captain Zhao really has a heart, but I have the power of General Guangyuan to borrow, and you, the County Captain of Linqing, have the power to thank you. Ding Hao was thinking how to politely decline, when he heard someone outside the door laughing loudly: County Captain Zhao, what's the problem with those account books found from Zhutou Xieku? As he spoke, a man in green official uniform stepped into the door with a smile. This man was about thirty, with a white face and a slight beard, clear facial features, and a harmless and friendly smile on his face, which made people fall in love with him at first sight.

When Zhao Xianwei saw this person, his expression suddenly became serious, and he hurriedly stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Cheng Yasi, if you have something to do, just call the boy to come over and say hello, how can you work hard?" Ding Hao was puzzled: "Abstainer?"The Yasi is just an official, so how can he be compared to Zhao Xianwei, who is a serious official, why does he want to salute the Cheng Yasi instead. Cheng Yasi quickly stepped forward to help Zhao Xianwei, and said with a happy smile: Mr. Zhao is so polite, Cheng Dexuan can't afford it.

Ding Hao's heart skipped a beat: The name is so familiar, could it be that this little prisoner is actually famous in history? Cheng Dexuan glanced at Ding Hao and asked: Who is this? Zhao Xianwei laughed, and said calmly: "This man's name is Ding Hao, and he is a steward of the Ding family in Bazhou."Cheng Yasi, please sit down quickly, come and serve tea. Ding Hao was busy and also bowed to return the gift: Xiaomin Ding Hao, see Mr. Cheng. Cheng Dexuan said with a smile: "Cheng is just an official, not an adult."County Captain Zhao, you summoned the steward of the Ding family to inquire about the case face to face?What progress have you made here now?

County Captain Zhao said in a calm and unhurried manner: Zhutou Xieku has a lot of account books, and it is really difficult to check the intricate details. This Ding Hao is the inspector of the Ding family's Xieku, so I called him here and wanted him to be in the office. Under the supervision of others, they sorted out the account books one by one, re-transcribed them, and the storekeeper Xu Muchen signed and confirmed them, and then sent the subordinate staff who are good at accounting to review them again. Cheng Dexuan looked at the messy account books in the room, smiled wryly and said: That's the only way, but this account book must be sent to a few capable policemen to take care of it, so that nothing is lost.

Zhao County Lieutenant smiled and agreed again and again. Ding Hao came out of the magistrate's yamen, stopped at the gate, turned his head to look for Xun Zhu'er's carriage, just in the time of stomping his feet, his heart lit up, and he suddenly remembered the history of Cheng Dexuan.It's him!Cheng Dexuan, it turns out that this person is the famous emperor killer! Meng Chang, the king of Shu, who was disarmed with 140,000 people, died of a sudden illness after a banquet shortly after he surrendered to the Song Dynasty. He died strangely and the cause of death is unknown.The homeland is unbearable to look back on. Li Yu of the Southern Tang Dynasty in the middle of the Yueming Dynasty died of the poison of the lead machine after he descended to the Song Dynasty, and his whole body shrank into a ball, which was unspeakable.Behind these two bizarre deaths of emperors, there is a mysterious figure of Cheng Dexuan indistinctly.

The founding emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Kuangyin, died strangely and suddenly, and his successor was the biggest suspect, Zhao Guangyi. Historians are always afraid of the emperor, so the writing is a little vague, but probably because of unwillingness, then It is recorded abruptly that on the night of Taizu's sudden death, Cheng Dexuan braved the heavy snow and stood under the government office in Kaifeng in the middle of the night, as if waiting for something. On the night of Zhao Kuangyin's sudden death in the palace, Cheng Yasi of Kaifeng Mansion stayed up most of the night and braved the heavy snow to run to the gate of the Yamen and stand there. What does this mean?This seemingly redundant record is very interesting.When Ding Hao made his next stop at the gate of Bazhou government office, the memory touched his heart, and he suddenly remembered this period of history.

Three emperors died strangely, two of them were subjugated and one was founded. If their deaths were all related to Cheng Dexuan, wouldn't this Cheng Yasi be worthy of the title of an emperor's killer? The more Ding Hao thought about it, the more regretful he felt: It's a pity, if he had remembered his identity earlier, he should have stayed a little longer just now, to see this character with his own eyes, and I will be the only one in the future who will have this privilege.This is the first celebrity I have ever seen that is recorded in history books. I am afraid that I will never have the chance to see another one in the future.But it's really strange. In the case of Liu Zhifu, Zhao Pu sent people, and Zhao Guangyi also sent people. It's full of gods and Buddhas. No wonder Zhao Xianwei said that the water is deep and muddy, so I can't get through it. I have to be more careful. .

The carriage stopped under the city gate, and Ding Hao and Xun Zhu'er boarded the top of Bazhou city.In the setting sun, the sky and the earth are golden.Standing on the top of the high city, the villages near and far and the rushing river, against the background of the faint green hills further away, there is movement in the stillness, and there is stillness in the movement, forming a very harmonious and beautiful picture. Sao Zhuer asked: Dumb, it's getting late, should I go to Zhutou to unload the warehouse now or where? Ding Hao said: "I'll go to the inn for a while, and tomorrow I'll go to the pig's head to untie the storehouse, and I'll go to the Yamen to settle accounts after I know the answer."You can't help here, so you should hurry back and help the young master get the medicine every day, and at the same time help us to breathe, besides, you have to take care of Dong'er for me. Sao Zhuer agreed, and asked: Miss Dong, did you agree to go with you? A smile appeared on Ding Hao's face: She, a soft and timid little girl, dared not tell her even if she wanted to.As long as Dong Lishi's trouble is resolved, are you afraid that she won't come with me?Liu Shishi failed to frame me, so I still hold the handle.Now that I have helped Ding's family solve this difficult matter, Young Master Ding will definitely have to repay my favor, so it is not too difficult to take her away.It's my mother's place, I'm afraid she is reluctant, but after all these days, she already knows my determination, and now she no longer persuades me to stay, nor does she mention the matter of starting a family.How is your place? Will Lan'er go with you?I hear that you two get along very well now. That's right, Sao Zhu'er smiled brightly: It's also thanks to you for giving me the job of delivering the medicine, otherwise, it would be really inconvenient for me to meet her because she is working in the inner house. Have you mentioned to her that you are leaving the Ding Mansion with me? No, you are still the steward of Ding's mansion, who will respect and fear you if you make public in advance, and obey your orders.Besides, you and Mrs. Dong haven't agreed yet, so I can't talk nonsense.But I believe Laner likes me.She is a hired servant and can leave at any time. You are General Cheng's great benefactor, and you will be reused in Guangyuan.I've thought about it, I don't plan to be a high-ranking official, as long as I can be a small school and manage more than a dozen people, it's better than being a slave here. Lan'er is willing to be with me now, I can have a greater future, What else is she not happy about. Sao Zhuer said happily, and said: "What about you, you are a person who has been enlightened by the fox fairy. If you follow General Cheng, you will at least be able to be a general in the future." Ding Hao couldn't help laughing: General?I really never thought about wearing armor and holding a gun to fight on the battlefield.I don't have any martial arts skills, so I'm afraid I'll die in one battle.Don't think that generals are just leading troops. Northwest China is still the domain of feudal towns, and feudal towns are just a matter of military and government control. Just like the little emperor under the great emperor, he doesn't necessarily have to lead troops when he works for General Cheng. Smell pig said: "Then you want to be a civil servant, like Zhao Xianwei?"Well, it's not bad, although it doesn't look as majestic as the general. Ding Hao scolded with a smile: "What kind of knowledge do civil servants have to do?"Can I pass the exam?Don't you always think about being an official? Smell pig wondered, "If you don't become an official, what will you do?" Ding Hao leaned on the wall, looked far into the distance, and said leisurely: Look at the continuous high mountains, which make people look up, but the high places are extremely cold; look at the rushing river, and the huge waves make people dizzy, but it is also I can't help myself; I don't have great ambitions, I just want to be that sparkling lake with clear water, quiet and secluded, doing whatever I want, it's good if someone appreciates it, and I'm happy if no one appreciates it. When the spring breeze blows, thousands of lotus bloom , Isn't it a kind of surprise? Sao Zhu'er rubbed his nose and said to himself: My mother, this is sour.If you say he is fat, he will be panting immediately. If you don’t want to be a civil servant, you will lose your book bag, so that I can’t understand it. Mountains, waters, lakes, everything is up to you.What kind of person is our official family in the Song Dynasty? Were they wrapped in yellow cloth and forced to become emperors? A hero like an official family can't do things by himself. Do you still want to do whatever you want?You're just smug in front of me, right?
