The first one was the emperor's commendation and encouragement to general Luo Yao. It was full of colorful words. When Fang Jie read it, he felt that flowers were blooming on his tongue. Based on this, Fang Xie had to admire Pei Yan, the yellow gate waiter who drafted the will, because Fang Xie could never think of so many words with similar meanings and write a will that can be summarized in three sentences.
Three sentences are really enough.
First, you worked hard. Second, the emperor can trust you. Third, you have to work hard in the future.
However, a purport with such a simple meaning can write hundreds of sentences, and almost the same words will not appear in each sentence, which is a test of skill.
The second purpose is to seal Luo Wen, the son of Luo Yao, as the general of the five grade Hussars. This title is similar to Fang Xie's Ranger general in nature. They are all empty posts and have no real power. Fang Xie wanted the emperor to grant Luo Wen a real lack before he came to Yongzhou, but the emperor was too stingy to agree.
It is also the fifth grade. A person will be far happier than an Hussars general.
However, for Luo Wen, this is a good thing after all. Even if the five grade general is a virtual position, with this virtual position, Luo Yao can openly arrange military positions for him, and the virtual position becomes a real lack. So Luo Wen was quite happy. He felt a little pleasing to the eye when he saw Fang Xie.
Zhongbo said that the man could not move now. The death of the imperial envoy in Yongzhou had a great impact on Luo Yao. Rowan himself didn't understand this. He was just angry.
The whole process of the announcement is actually very short, much shorter than the preparation time. After that, Fang Xie has to go to the governor's Yamen of Yongzhou Pingshang road to make a decree. Luo Qiu is already waiting there. Luo Yao sent Fang Xie out with his family until the imperial team disappeared at the street corner.
The last one to turn back was Chu.
"You come with me."
Luo Yao paused slightly, looked at Luo Wen and said four words coldly. Luo Wen's face suddenly changed, and the fear in his eyes overflowed uncontrollably. Like a child, he hung his head and followed Luo Yao to the Yamen. He didn't even dare to get out of the atmosphere.
"Uncle Zhong, you too."
Luo Yao glanced at Uncle Zhong, who immediately lowered his head.
The southwest garrison mansion covers a small area. In front of it are several rows of strong green tile houses behind the Yamen. This is the place where the people on duty rest and live. Most of them are civil servants. Because they seldom come to the southwest garrison house, to tell the truth, many people in the Yamen can't name Luo Yao.
He went into the back yard and told everyone to go out.
Standing under the banyan tree in the backyard, Luo Yao's face became colder and colder.
"Kneel down"
He said two words coldly, and rowan immediately fell on his knees with a plop.
Luo Wen's forehead touched the cold bluestone, and the sweat soon wet the stone. Because his head hung low, his ass looked very high and his posture looked a little embarrassed. Not only did he kneel down, but also uncle Zhong with a refined steel sword box on his back.
"Where's the medicine."
Luo Yao asked.
Luo Wen looked up at Luo Yao and quickly lowered his head: "father... The medicine has been destroyed, uncle Zhong... Uncle Zhong can testify. The monk left, and the child destroyed the medicine."
"Really?"
Luo Yao asked.
Zhong Bo's shoulder trembled and his voice was a little hoarse: "general Hui... Yes... It's ruined."
Luo Yao nodded, walked slowly to Luo Wen's body and asked in a low voice, "who gave you the courage to open the small gate in the backyard?"
Luo Wen's body trembled and replied, "boy... I just feel that my father is not in the house. I should... Share my worries for you. I'm an adult. It's time to do something for my father..."
Pop!
Before he had finished speaking, his voice was interrupted by a loud slap in the face.
Soon, Rowan's face was swollen on one side. The slap was very hard, and half of his face quickly changed its color from pale to swollen red.
"Share your worries?"
Pop!
The second slap came one after another. The corner of Rowan's mouth was opened and the blood flowed out immediately.
"Are you sharing your worries or causing trouble for me? You're getting bolder and bolder when you meet the people of the Buddha sect in private. If you can't let go of you in the general's house, you can go away immediately. I said that no one should question and violate my words in the house, including you. Have you forgotten all about the small gate in the backyard if no one except me is allowed to open it ?”
"I dare not. I really just want to do something for my father."
"General, it's the fault of the old slave. Don't punish the young master any more."
Zhong Bo repeatedly kowtows and pleads.
Luo Yao snorted coldly, "Uncle Zhong, you grew up caring for him. I know you treat him like your relatives. You are the old man around me. Luo Wu also liked to play with you when he was a child... You should know what indulgence will make a person look like!"
He kicked Luo Wen over with one foot: "I don't care what you do outside on weekdays, because those are small things. As long as you don't involve officials, it's not related to human life, I'm too lazy to ask. If my son Luo Yao is honest outside like a scholar who can only talk nonsense, it's not like words! But you should know what the bottom line is... Why your eldest brother Luo Wu died, don't you know?"
He kicked Luo Wen's body out again and hit the banyan tree hard.
"Keeping you is also a curse. Today I will kill you myself, so that you will not be killed later!"
He walked to Luo Wen, who bent and vomited blood under the tree. Zhong Bo climbed forward on his knees and kowtowed and begged. Luo Yao's face was still cold. He pointed to Luo Wen and scolded, "what's the use of keeping such an idiot except his family?"
At this time, Luo Wen laughed bitterly. He spat a bloody spit and roared at Luo Yao: "kill me! Anyway, I'm not the first one you killed!"
Luo Yao's already raised hand froze in mid air, and the expression on his face froze immediately.
……
……
Chu stood outside the moon door and looked coldly at his husband beating his son to vomit blood. From beginning to end, she didn't say a word, but the chill in her husband's eyes was too cold. Chunlan looked at her face and whispered whether to persuade the general. Chu shook his head and said that he had killed his own son. After saying this, he turned and left.
Luo Yao looked back at his wife, and his face was also very cold.
"Uncle Zhong, come with me."
Luo Yao ignored Luo Wen sitting under the banyan tree and left the yard with Zhong Bo. After they left, Qiuju and Dongmei walked in quickly and helped Luo Wen up.
"Young master, why? You know the general's temper. The more you talk back, the more angry he is."
Qiuju took out her handkerchief and wiped the blood off the corners of her mouth for him. Her tone was full of heartache.
The four of them have deep feelings for Luo Wen. Chu was very weak after giving birth to Luo Wen. The children have always been taken care of by the four of them in turn. It can be said that the four of them watched Luo Wen grow up. Only in front of Rowan, these four women will have some human spirit.
"Why don't I know?"
Luo Wen took Qiuju's handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth: "but sometimes I think that instead of facing a cold father every day and living in fear all day, it's better to be killed by him earlier."
"Young master, that's serious."
Dongmei held his hand and said: "The general's temper is like this. Since his death, his temperament has become more and more withdrawn. Even his wife has tried her best not to provoke the general. Young master, you have known this since childhood. You are getting older and older, but you are more and more fond of cutting corners. Even if the general says some cruel words and hands, isn't this big family property purchased by the general for you? As long as you don't disobey him It would be better to live a good life. "
"Easy to say..."
Luo Wen angrily said: "But I'm a man. I'm so old that I don't want to be arranged like a child every day! I also want to have my own actions and achievements, rather than waiting to take everything from him! From small to large, he doesn't allow me to touch military affairs and government affairs. Have you ever seen the son of a major general so oppressed?"
"I never thought of relying on him for my life."
Luo Wen clenched the pill in his sleeve: "I have to rely on myself!"
Luo Yao walked slowly along the path in the backyard.
"Uncle Zhong, tell me the truth. Has the pill Shiyuan gave Zixu been destroyed? It's no small matter. You should know that some things of Buddha sect can't be touched."
"It should be destroyed."
First road of zhongbertie: "When Shiyuan gave the things to the young master, the old slave wanted to stop him, but he didn't have enough cultivation. He was controlled by Shiyuan and couldn't speak... The old slave was entrusted by the general... But after Shiyuan left, I asked the young master to destroy the pills in the brocade bag again and again. The young master hesitated for a while and agreed. I watched him throw the brocade bag into the kitchen stove and burn it ……”
Luo Yao said: "Shiyuan, as the Buddha's Heavenly Master, has a good cultivation. You don't have to blame yourself if you're not as good as him. Zixu, you continue to take care of him and never let him have anything to do with the Buddha's people. I've lost a Wu and can't lose Zixu... He's too free-minded and hard. I wanted to polish his edges and corners, but now look at his appearance and he's more like a Wu in those days Come... "
"Don't worry, general. The young master has discretion. He's not a child."
"Well"
Luo Yao answered, remained silent for a while and said, "you will call Zhan Yao later. I have something to tell him. And... From today on, you will keep an eye on Zixu and will not allow him to go to the imperial envoy for trouble."
"Here"
Zhongbo answered.
Luo Yao paused and asked, "how profound is Shiyuan's cultivation in your opinion?"
"Old slave... I can't see."
Zhong Bo shook his head: "the difference is too much. The old slave can't feel how deep the strength of Shiyuan is."
"You'll ask Xing Tu to find Shi Yuan later. I'll see him in the study tonight. Let Mo SA accompany me to see the guests. No one is ordered to stay away from the study tonight without me."
……
……
The governor's Yamen is larger than the southwest garrison mansion and looks very imposing. The stone lion at the door was gnashing his teeth and claws, and his face was ferocious. The Yamen servants wearing blue coats outside the door and red robes inside stood in two rows, looking very solemn and solemn. Luo Qiu and all the officials of the governor's Yamen were waiting outside the door.
When Fang Xie's carriage was halfway there, he suddenly moved in his heart. He lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. Then he saw the man in a hat and white robe in the crowd. The monk slowly raised his head and showed his face under the hat. He looked at Fang Xie and smiled. After laughing, he said a word in his mouth without making a sound.
"It's time for you to choose!"
This is what he said. Fang Xie's heart sank fiercely.
