Chapter 735 The Murder Case Caused by Inviting Dr. Lin

"Li Qingchen is going to die."

Inside the mansion, Wang Jiying had just changed into casual clothes. When he came to the hall, he saw Wang Jizhong pouring himself a drink with a relaxed expression.

This elder brother also has a face as black as iron, and a fat body, but his demeanor is not rude, but has a bit of refined literati demeanor.

When Wang Jiying heard the news, a smile appeared immediately: "This old man is finally dead!"

Wang Jizhong put down his wine glass: "Li Qingchen died of illness, and the Han family has no apparent supporters. They must restrain themselves a little, but they will not give up. The next magistrate of the Daming Prefecture will stay behind in Beijing. If someone still favors the Han family, then Our respite period is just a few months."

Wang Jiying snorted coldly: "Nowadays, the situation in the DPRK and China is uncertain. By then, maybe the New Party will gain the upper hand, and the Han family will be obediently dormant... These scholar-officials are even more greedy than us. It's really hateful!"

Wang Jizhong said: "With their power and status, it is not surprising that they expand outwards. Fortunately, the literati have the same name, otherwise the conflict between our two families would have broken out long ago. There has been no war for a long time, and the status of our Northern Army is getting lower and lower! "

Wang Jiying rolled his eyes: "Brother, since those scholar-bureaucrats cherish their reputation so much, why don't we expose that incident?"

Wang Jizhong played with the wine glass, thinking in his eyes: "Is it the crime of Qingmiao's loan?"

Among Wang Anshi's reforms, the most famous one is also the most notorious among the people. It is called a measure that disturbs the people and disrupts the government. I am afraid it is the green crop loan.

At that time, Hebei pacifier, Wei Guogong, and Han Qi, who was sentenced to the Daming Mansion, came out to play, saying that the local implementation of the green crop loan did not abide by the regulations, and all kinds of misconduct affected the people. The original intention of the reform to suppress mergers and relieve poverty is contrary to the original intention, and the government's pursuit of profit is even more disrespectful to the court.

Seen in this way, it is all malpractice, and I request the abolition of the young crop law.

As for the emptiness of the national treasury, it doesn't matter if the court can't make ends meet, please Your Majesty, "Practice frugality before the world, and naturally there will be no lack of national use."

Sima Guang nodded his praise.

Of course, Han Qi's political level is far from comparable to that of Sima Guang. He said a lot, which is indeed well-founded, and pointed out many disadvantages of Qingmiaodai. Respond to "Qizhen's loyal minister, although he is away, he never forgets the royal family. I said at the beginning that I can benefit the people, but I didn't mean to harm the people..."

But not to mention the turmoil in the court of the capital, the Wang family in Hebei can clearly see that although Qingmiaodai has all kinds of unbearable problems, it is actually the lesser of two evils.

Compared with the [-]% annual interest of private usury loans, the government's young crop loan is only [-]% in the first installment, and the interest rate is less than [-]% a year.

Of course, even if the people below deliberately made things difficult, the common people did not live any worse. What really can't stand it is the scholar-bureaucrat class who are used to drinking and drinking.

Take the Han family in Xiangzhou as an example. Half of the land in Xiangzhou is named Han. Countless people in Xiangzhou owe loans to the Han family to support this huge family. Once the Qingmiao loan is implemented, the government will take away the interest of [-] yuan a year. , the Han family can only live by collecting rent from the land, and the quality of life will drop instantly.

Is this okay?

No matter how poor you are, you can't be a poor monk, no matter how hard you are, you can't be a scholar!

Wang Jizhong witnessed the disputes all the way back then, and said with admiration: "Han Qi's brilliance is that he emphasized that the young crop loan is for helping the poor, and interest should not be charged, so that the common people can benefit."

"Is it wrong? Of course, who dares to say that it is wrong to do what is good for the people? But how can this Mr. Han not know how it is possible to continue a reform that is of no benefit to the court? It is beneficial to the country and must be profitable!"

"Besides, if we really want to follow what Han Qi said, if we don't charge interest, another group of civil servants will jump out and make admonitions, saying that such reforms are a waste of wealth and embarrassing the country, so we must stop!"

Wang Jiying curled her lips and said, "If you pretend to be ignorant and pretend to be ignorant, a literati is hypocrisy!"

Wang Jizhong thought it was normal: "If you are in a high position, you have to be hypocritical, and you have to say that you are doing bad things for the good of the people. This is something we can learn from. The reputation of our warriors is still too bad, so the literati can catch us! "

Wang Jiying said in a deep voice: "But what the Han family did in the Green Crop Law, especially their clansman killed the villagers with sticks and caused a tragedy. Don't we have evidence?"

"I was thinking about this just now, but after thinking about it carefully, I still can't expose it, not in any form..."

Wang Jizhong shook his head: "If that incident is exposed, it will not be the Han family that offends, but all the scholar-bureaucrat families. If we really want to fight openly, the imperial court will definitely help them and seize our military power!"

Wang Jiying narrowed his eyes: "Then don't let others expose it in our name, and let us reap the benefits!"

Wang Jizhong frowned greatly, and reprimanded in a tone of hating iron but not steel: "Don't play with your cleverness, if you really want to make trouble, no matter who exposes it, the Han family will be the first to suspect us, and then we will be in the same position. Water and fire, there is no way out!"

Wang Jiying was not too convinced, but he didn't dare to refute. He sat down and drank.

In any case, when Li Qingchen died, he could always talk about it for comfort, not to mention drinking too much.

But at this moment, the housekeeper hurried in, came to Wang Jizhong, and whispered.

Wang Jiying glanced sideways, hummed at this kind of behavior of hiding from himself, and then found that his brother's voice rose: "This statement is true, Li Qingchen is so old, is there any help?"

The housekeeper said: "I don't know about this matter, but that Lin Erlang is quite famous in the Daming Mansion now, and many deeds have been passed on. It is true that there is a saying that the needle can cure the disease, and the magic hand will rejuvenate. He came from behind in the capital, and intends to open a branch in our Daming Mansion..."

Wang Jizhong's face was ugly. They were oppressed by the magistrate before, and they finally hoped that the other party would die of a serious illness, but there was a possibility of a turnaround. No reasonable person could accept this.

Wang Jiying also understood it, stood up suddenly, and stared wide-eyed: "Is there any help for that old man Li Qingchen? This is absolutely impossible! Who is the genius doctor? I will immediately bring someone to tie him back!"

Wang Jizhong said in a deep voice: "Lin Chong, the son of Lin Yuanjing, is well-known in Bianjing as Lin Erlang, not to mention his high martial arts skills, if you go to Lin Yuanjing's mansion to lead soldiers to tie him up, are you going to directly rebel?"

Wang Jiying clenched his fists and sat down slowly.

Wang Jizhong didn't panic, he thought about it carefully, and asked the housekeeper: "How is father's health these days?"

The butler was startled for a moment, and then realized: "Ah Lang's body...does feel a little uncomfortable!"

Wang Jizhong immediately said to his younger brother: "Father is seriously ill, you go to the Lin Mansion and invite that Lin Erlang to treat him. If you meet other people who are ahead of you on the way, it is only natural for you to stop them..."

Wang Jiying understood, stood up abruptly, grinned grinningly and said, "I'm going to show my filial piety, and some conflicts occurred in my eagerness. I believe those scholar-bureaucrats who value filial piety the most will understand it with their noses!"

……

"This martial artist actually has a son who is quite famous among scholars, and I have to ask him..."

Li Qingchen's eldest son Li Zijing sat in the carriage and headed for the Lin residence.

Along the way, he tried his best to restrain the arrogance and resentment in his eyes, and put on an expression of asking for others.

No one can bear the charge of unfilial piety. After Han Jiayan opened his mouth, he immediately sent someone to investigate and confirmed the news that the Sui'an Medical Center was going to open in Daming Mansion, and Lin Erlang's name was heard logically.

As the son of the magistrate, he naturally knew something about the recent turmoil in the capital, but Li Zijing didn't connect the up-and-coming star who played an important role in it with Wu Fulin Yuanjing, who was set up by his father with a few words before. .

What was even more unexpected was that the other party had achieved such a great reputation in the capital, but he didn't miss it, and came to Daming Mansion after a year, just to reunite with his family.

In comparison, my own behavior is indeed a bit unfilial. The famous doctor from Bianjing came here, and even when his father was seriously ill, he didn't even send out an invitation. If this spread, wouldn't his reputation be greatly damaged?
So when he saw Lin Yuanjing next time, Li Zijing was going to keep his attitude very low, and bowed in the manner of a junior, saying that "my father is seriously ill, and as a son of man, all his internal organs will be burned. Fortunately, I heard that Erlang is a famous man." The genius doctor of the capital, the doctor is benevolent, so he took the liberty to come to the door to treat my father."

If the other party didn't respond, he could even bear the humiliation and prostrate himself. A literati worships a martial artist. Such a contrast, just because of his father's illness, it is a good story to spread. How dare the other party fail to fulfill his filial piety?
After arranging the next invitation method, Li Zijing's heart was settled, and when the carriage stopped, he straightened his clothes and walked down.

"Sorry--!"

But what I saw was not Lin Yuanjing, but a group of fast horses galloping over. The general at the head was majestic, as strong as a black bear, and wearing armor. come over.

Li Zijing's face changed: "Wang Dujian?"

Given the dispute between the Han and Wang families, the other party naturally did not want to see Li Qingchen's condition improve in the slightest, but the other party was too daring to block him with such a bravado, right?

The next moment he knew the answer, Wang Jiying's eyes showed undisguised sarcasm, and he shouted: "My father is sick and can't get up from the couch, quickly follow me into the mansion, and ask Doctor Lin to go back and treat my father!"

"Shameless! It's my father who is seriously ill, follow me into the mansion and invite Miracle Doctor Lin!"

Li Zijing never expected that this martial artist could be so despicable. Seeing Wang Jiying striding towards the Lin mansion, he screamed and rushed forward.

The two came to the gate of the mansion together, but saw that the gate was closed and no one came to welcome them.

This is not surprising, because of the normal procedure, they need to hand in the name card first, and then arrange a specific visit time, but firstly, they are anxious and can't wait, and both of them also look down on this unfounded commander of the Imperial Army. , this link is omitted through filial piety.

At this time, Li Zijing shouted directly: "Commander Lin, Doctor Lin, open the door! Human life is at stake, open the door quickly!"

What Wang Jiying hated the most was the high-spirited manner of the literati. He took a few steps back and rushed forward: "Fuck you!"

If it was an official appointed by the imperial court, Wang Jiying would still be afraid of it in broad daylight, but although Li Zijing was the eldest son of Li Qingchen, he did not pass the exam. He slammed into Li Zijing's body hard.

The impact of itself, coupled with the impact of the armor, made Li Zijing's small body, which had been hollowed out by wine, immediately fly up, fell to the ground, and rolled backward twice, with a bang on the head He hit the stone lion by the door.

"what-!"

After the rapid scream, the prefect's son opened his mouth and immediately passed out.

Wang Jiying laughed loudly, triumphantly: "You are so weak, why do you still want to be filial?"

When the guards who followed Li Zijing saw them, their eyes turned red and they rushed over: "Protect the yamen!!"

"Hit!!" "Hit me!!"

Just outside the mansion, the two groups of dutiful sons were fighting, and in the main hall of the mansion, Lin Yuanjing was drinking tea leisurely.

His expression was a bit weird, he wanted to smile, but felt that he shouldn't laugh out loud, and it was very hard to endure it.

"Murder! Murder!"

It wasn't until there was a sudden scream outside that Lin Yuanjing got up slowly, walked out, and made a surprised voice: "Hey, what's the matter?"
