"Master Huyan, sir, Hu Feng said that the current government is corrupt, the traitors are in power, a large amount of land and money are concentrated in the hands of a few bureaucrats and local tyrants, and the lives of ordinary people are becoming increasingly difficult. If this situation continues, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Hu Yun looked a little sad and said, "Later we agreed that after I finished my official work the next afternoon, I would go back to my hometown to visit my old mother. I never thought that the next day, I would be arrested by the Youth Guard.
The bandit Gai Jingtian was arrested, and Gai Jingtian would be escorted to Beijing the next day. I didn't dare to be careless, so I told Hu Feng to wait for me for another day. That night, I didn't go home, so I slept in front of the prison door.
Temporary residence. About midnight, Hu Feng came to my residence. I was surprised that he came to the prison to find me, when he knocked me unconscious. When I woke up, I found that I was already in the hut in the back mountain. At the same time, I
We also met our mothers.”
Hu Yun took a sip of water and continued: "When I woke up, Hu Feng briefly told me what happened that night, saying that after he knocked me out, he dressed up as me, entered the prison, and shot Gai Jingtian.
"
Song Chengzu asked: "What is the reason for killing Gai Jiaotian?"
This question is also what I want to know. Gai Jiaotian is a bandit who is not a popular bandit. Why did Hu Feng want to kill him? Besides, their lives seem to have no intersection.
"I later learned the reason for killing Gai Jingtian." Hu Yun paused for a moment and said, "In the following days, Hu Feng told me his experience intermittently. When Hu Feng grew up, he followed him
Benefactor Lang studied art. Over the years, he got to know a group of people who he thought had great ideas. These people formed
He formed an organization called the Tongmenghui, saying that he wanted to change the current situation and bring the world back to the prosperous days of the Han and Tang Dynasties, so that the people could have enough food and clothing. It was certainly a good thing to be able to bring back the prosperous times, and I had no objection. I then asked him how to do it.
Realize? He said that the current imperial court is extremely ill and there is no cure.
Only by establishing a new and effective court and completely changing the corrupt and incompetent regime can we achieve this goal. I was furious at the time and said, didn’t they just want to rebel? Hu Feng neither confirmed nor denied it, but just kept giving
I described the purpose of their alliance and said that my vitality was almost exhausted and only their leader could
Being able to save people from fire and water, I think they are simply branding them as a group of saints who rescue people in distress. Later, Hu Feng said that Gai Jiaotian was also a member of their peripheral organization. The prison was heavily guarded that night, and he knew he could not rescue him.
, and worried that after he was escorted to Beijing and revealed the situation of the organization, he would be killed and silenced."
Song Chengzu was shocked, stood up again and said: "What, you want to rebel?"
"The Alliance?" I was startled. I stretched out my hand to signal Song Chengzu to calm down and said, "Hu Yun, did Hu Feng say his purpose of coming here?"
"Sir, Hu Feng just said that he came to Jinhua to complete a task. As for what the task was, he did not mention it. He said that after completing the task, he would take my mother and me away."
"Did you say where to take it?"
Hu Yundao: "I didn't say that. I just said that it was like a scene in Peach Blossom Spring."
"Utopia? Haha." I smiled, "Hu Yun, what is Hu Feng's intention in telling you these things?"
"Hu Feng hopes that I can join their organization and rebuild a new dynasty with them."
"What do you mean?"
Hu Yun was filled with indignation and said: "Sir, I have studied hard for ten years. Although I have not received any honors, I know that I was born in the Song Dynasty. Of course I don't agree with this."
"Hu Yun, how long have you been an official in Jinhua?"
"I started as the earliest policeman, and it has been almost ten years now."
"Ten years is not a short time. You have been in the officialdom for a long time. Don't you think that what your brother said is not all nonsense? In today's Mongolia, the current court does have a lot of problems with the current situation and Hu Feng
It’s consistent with what he said.”
Hu Yun was stunned and didn't know how to answer for a moment. Even Song Chengzu was stunned and didn't know why I said this.
After a moment, Hu Yun said: "Sir, if it were in the past, I really don't know how to answer. In the past ten years, I have become more and more worried about our court, and I am even deeply disappointed with the future of the court. However,
After the imperial examination this year, my mind has completely changed because I see hope."
"Ah, you went to take the imperial examination?" I immediately denied myself, "This is impossible. How can any official take the imperial examination? Besides, if Hu Yun took the imperial examination, he would naturally recognize me."
"Sir, to tell you the truth, one of the candidates on the red list of the Xianchun imperial examination this time is a friend of mine. My friend said that his biggest gain from going to Beijing for the imperial examination is not that he can get the red list in high school, but that he has learned from the instructions of the current emperor.
I saw the hope of our country and expressed my gratitude to
I deeply feel the same and agree with this." Hu Yun said with some excitement, "Young master is unaware of something. The students who participated in this scientific examination summarized the emperor's instructions in Gongyuan into a poem and a couplet, from which everyone can see
The hope of my dynasty has arrived.”
"What is a poem, a couplet?" I was confused myself.
"Young Master, this poem refers to a poem that the emperor gave to the candidates in the Gongyuan. It goes like this: Jiuzhou is angry and relies on wind and thunder, and it is pitiful that thousands of horses are silent. I will inspire God to send talents to any one of them. What is this sentence?
, refers to the emperor’s expectations for the candidates. Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. And a couplet means
It refers to the emperor's requirements for those who are successful in the election when they become officials in the future. If you are an official and do not make decisions for the people, it is better to go home and raise livestock. Horizontal criticism is the way to be an official. It is from this that I see hope. The current emperor is so wise.
, comparable to the wise emperors of the Han and Tang Dynasties, I believe that the emperor will be able to lead us to revitalize the mountains and rivers of China."
I didn't expect that my instructions in Gongyuan would have such an effect. Now it was my turn to be stunned. I quickly drank a sip of tea and said slowly: "I see. Hu Yun, in these days, except for Hu Feng
, who else have you come into contact with?”
Hu Yun thought for a while and said: "There are only three guards and one food delivery person. The food delivery person is called Butler He by the guard. His accent sounds like a local. The three guards don't seem to be locals from Jinhua."
I said "En" and said, "Steward He is the steward of Hejiazhuang, He Dongfu."
"Hejiazhuang? Does this matter have anything to do with Hejiazhuang?"
I said: "It's hard to say for now. I guess it might just be He Dongfu's personal behavior. Hu Yun, if you think about it again, are there any clues?"
"By the way, sir, when the man in black was talking to Hu Feng, he mentioned Baoji Temple on Chisong Mountain."
"Baoji Temple? That must be for Chisongtie."
"What is red pine stick?"
"It's the secret book of the Chisong sect's martial arts practice."
Song Chengzu said: "Sir, it seems that Hu Feng originally came here for Chisong Tie, and it was just the right time to kill Gai Jietian."
"Well, I think so too. Mr. Song, we will arrange for Hu Yun and his mother to rest in the inn tonight. You will take the other four people back to the government office, interrogate them all night, and immediately draw a portrait of Hu Feng, walking along the two Zhejiang roads.
All government agencies will assist in the arrest."
"Yes, sir, it's time for Yi Changjiang to arrive. I'll go back right now."
After seeing Song Chengzu and others leaving, Wen Zhang looked slightly depressed and said: "It's a pity that the main criminal escaped this time. It's all our fault that we didn't find the carrier pigeon released by He Dongfu at that time. Master, do you think Hu Yun's words are credible?"
Fang Lingdao: "I think it's credible, right, brother."
"Well, it's very credible. We'll wait until Song Chengzu has interrogated the other people tonight before we can make a conclusion. Lan Yu, Shen Mo, and Wen Zhang, the three of you will spend your time tonight monitoring the movements of Hu Yun's mother and son."
"Yes, sir."
Fang Ling looked at me with admiration and said, "Brother, you don't act like a businessman at all when assigning tasks."
"Really, what does that look like?"
"Like a general holding a mighty army, full of majesty and grandeur."
"Ling'er, have you seen the general?"
Fang Ling smiled and said: "No, but I have seen it on the stage. Haha, by the way, brother, I just heard what Hu Yun said. The poems and couplets of the current emperor are indeed very insightful and extraordinary. It seems that I have
rival."
"Ah, what opponent?"
"Ling'er has always thought that among the knowledgeable people in this world, you are ranked number one. Now it seems that the emperor is not that simple, and you can compete with me."
I smiled and was speechless.
Yuan Ji on the side couldn't help but smile, and quickly changed the subject: "Sir, the organization that Hu Feng belongs to seems to be not simple, and its purpose is somewhat similar to that of our Long Ya."
"Well, let Lu Xiufu send someone to check it out after we get back. It sounds like Hu Feng has lofty ideals. It seems that the leader of their organization is a figure."
Most of the rebels in ancient times rose up to resist because they could not bear to be oppressed. But this organization gave me a different feeling. It seemed to have advanced views of modern people. Even the name was very modern. Could there be something else?
