Chapter 22 A Strong Man Does Not Shed Tears

Zhao Hao's student life was full of hunger and pain. The only bright spot was the junior sister in front of him.

He still remembered that in those years, he would go home only after dark every day, and get up before dawn in the morning to mop the floor and wash the toilet for Mr. Qian as his own assistant. Fortunately, he was extremely strong, strong, and still a teenager.

, it took several years of hard work to earn this reputation as a scholar.

When he was studying, he did very well in his studies and often helped his classmates write to earn extra money. This junior sister was his biggest customer. If he was hungry and panicked, the junior sister would find a deserted place and take it out of his arms.

A few eggs.

While he was devouring his food, his junior sister would look at him with a smile, making him want to cry.

Back then, when Mr. Qian was not the boss of the county, some children from powerful families came to bully Junior Sister Qian after being punished by Mr. Qian. Zhao Hao would go over and beat that guy until his teeth were all over the floor, although he would definitely be beaten by his servants afterwards.

Blood streamed from his nose and mouth, but he often managed to escape due to his strong body and many brothers in his clan.

When he did this, in addition to having some thoughts of repaying his gratitude, more importantly, he enjoyed the admiration of his junior sister.

What he just said was not out of thin air. From the bottom of his heart, it had two purposes: first, he could learn the Wang Prefect’s treacherous plan from his junior sister, so that he could save his younger brothers, although they had different opinions.

They are conspiring to each other, but they are always brothers from the same mother. Blood is thicker than water, how can they be cut off easily? Secondly, this passage is in line with the character he tried his best to show in front of everyone. He has been a gentleman for a long time, and under Zhao Hao's

Deep down, it seems that he really considers himself a gentleman.

If Yang Tinghe and Han Bangqi heard this sentence, they would look for Zhao Huifu and tell him that he would not return until he was drunk. The elders, governors and scholars were truly outstanding representatives of the literati of the Ming Dynasty.

But the junior sister who hadn't seen him for several years seemed to have changed a lot. The look she looked at him was no longer one of admiration and adoration, but a mixture of admiration and a hint of disdain.

She stayed for a while before she came back to her senses. She looked at her senior brother who seemed to have lost his mind in reading, and said with a wry smile: "Senior brother, the world is as black as crows. No official is corrupt, and no official is traitorous. Common people, please cooperate with me."

It should be fish and meat. A few days ago, there was a bloody battle in Yingzhou, Datong Prefecture, and more than 100,000 civilians died. The imperial court reported nothing. Compared with this, these thousands of lives are nothing."

Although Junior Sister Qian married into a wealthy family and secretly cheated and did everything, she was still as pure and lovely as a girl in front of Senior Brother Zhao, and even tried to persuade the stupid Senior Brother in her heart to change her mind.

Zhao Hao said angrily: "The battle at Yingzhou was a battle between Han and Yi. It was a battle of righteousness. Even if millions of civilians died, it was deserved! But the people of Wen'an are innocent, and this place is not under the control of Hejian Prefecture.

That king's thief crossed the line and committed crimes, and ignored the law of the court. He is really hateful and deserves to be killed."

Wen'an County is under the jurisdiction of Shuntian Prefecture. It and Dacheng are part of Hejian Prefecture, and the distance to Hejian is much closer than the capital.

At this time, the sky was getting brighter, and there were more and more pedestrians on the road. The two of them were on the street, which was very inconvenient.

Junior Sister Qian looked around, pointed at the inn in front of her, hesitated for a moment, and then said decisively: "Brother, it's not appropriate to have a long conversation here. This is a big case, and I don't dare to leak anything to someone who is not a close relative."

If you want to know the inside story, go inside."

Zhao Hao led the way without saying a word, and Junior Sister Qian followed. After the two of them entered the inn, the servants, maids and servants who were left behind stood awkwardly for a moment, turning a blind eye to them all.

, carrying the blue sedan, circled around the inn.

After about two hours, Junior Sister Qian came out.

I saw her face was rosy, her brows were springing up, and she got on the sedan, and then she said to herself: "Has anyone seen it?"...

A middle-aged maid replied in a low voice: "Don't worry, Miss."

This group of people are all her dowry, and they have been raised since childhood. In addition, Liu Qian's skills are superb, so he is not afraid of their betrayal. Asking a question is just to remind these slaves.

"Go back to Renqiu quickly."

She wanted to leave this place of right and wrong before dawn. If she hadn't happened to meet Zhao Hao, she would have left Shuntian Mansion by now.

After Liu Qian left, about two moments later, Zhao Hao walked out of the inn quickly. He saw his face was ashen and his steps were flying, running straight to his home.

The pile of books he originally held in his hands had long since disappeared, and even the turban that he usually wore evenly on his head had been torn off. His hair was scattered, and coupled with his tall body, he looked a bit scary.

On the way home, the neighbor who was familiar with him wanted to say hello to Zhao Xiucai, but before he could open his mouth, he was forced back by the scholar's murderous aura. Only then did he remember that more than ten years ago, this guy did the same.

A demon king!

Kicking open the door of his own room, Zhao Hao called out to his wife, and when he heard Zhao Zhang's reply, he calmed down, sighed, and with all his murderous intent gone, he said to his wife: "Pack up and get out of the city quickly."

Mrs. Zhao Zhang saw that her husband looked wrong and did not dare to say anything. She quickly called her daughter, packed a few changes of clothes, and sewed the only silver ingot in the family to the hem of her underwear. Then she asked her husband: "But is it against the king's law?

"

Zhao Hao shook his head, led his wife and daughter in his arms, walked into the woodshed, took out a big mountain-cutting ax from the woodpile, blew the dust on it, and was stunned for a while looking at the bright ax blade.

.

It wasn't until his daughter reached out and touched his beard that he seemed to wake up and said with a smile: "Lan Lan, daddy will take you to the theater, okay?"

The little girl naturally liked it and asked happily: "What show?"

Zhao Hao sighed and said slowly: "Kill people."

The eight-year-old girl didn't understand what killing was, and she had never heard her parents and neighbors say this. If she was asked to kill a pig, she would understand. After all, her grandfather's family was a pig killer, and she immediately clapped her hands happily and said, "Kill someone."

went."

Mrs. Zhao Zhang followed behind, holding her husband's clothes tightly, with tears streaming down her face. Looking at his back, she knew that her husband, who valued benevolence and righteousness, and was full of poems and books, had disappeared.

But I don’t know what it has become like this one in front of me.

But no matter how she changed, he was still her husband, her heaven, her earth, and her only one.

Zhao Hao took a big ax and kicked away the heaviest piles of firewood in the room, revealing a wooden board. He put down his daughter, stretched out his hand, and lifted up the wooden board.

There were actually two pairs of soft armor inside!

Zhao Hao and his wife looked at each other and said, "Put it on!"

After his wife had put on the soft armor, he also took off his shirt, tied his daughter behind his body, and said with a smile: "Lan Lan, don't be afraid, daddy will take you to fight the bad guys."

The little girl also smiled and said, "I'm not afraid."

He put the soft armor on himself and his daughter, put on his outer robe, listened to the noise outside, and said to his wife: "If we unfortunately get separated and see Zhao Xiu and others, stay away from them! Come to

We meet at the fishing village where we often go to De Sheng Dian."

Zhao Zhang was surprised: "But the second uncle..."

Zhao Hao smiled coldly: "I don't have such a brother!"

After getting the true intentions of the officers and soldiers from Liu Qianshi, Zhao Hao thought about the matter and found that it was a big trap with small traps connected.

Everyone involved in this scam thought that they were the oriole, but they did not expect that the biggest oriole was actually the emperor in Shanxi!

What's even more ridiculous is that the emperor himself didn't know about this at all!

All of this was planned by the Hejian magistrate named Wang Qinian...

Zhao Hao hated this Wang Zhifu who ruined his great career in the imperial examination. His dream of being a gentleman and serving the country was completely destroyed by this Wang Zhifu.

If I don't kill this thief, I swear I won't be a human being!

A torch was thrown into the woodshed, and the originally cold home instantly burst into flames. Zhao Hao choked and said, "Let's go!"

I heard the daughter behind me ask softly: "Dad, if you burn down the house, Mom and Lan'er will have nowhere to go."

Zhao Hao couldn't control it anymore and tears burst into his eyes.

He held a big ax in his left hand, held his wife in his right hand, and walked away with the flames behind him and the roars and curses of the neighbors.

As expected, after turning two streets, a group of guardsmen gathered around. The leader, Xiaoqi, said with a smile: "Zhao Xiucai, you burned down your neighbor and the crime was committed. Come with us."

Zhao Hao said in a deep voice: "How much silver did my brother give you?"

Xiao Qi was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to speak, he saw Zhao Hao swing his ax in his hand and silently cut off the upper part of his hat. The flying hair instantly covered Xiao Qi's face.

"roll!"

Before Zhao Hao finished speaking, the group of guard soldiers dispersed in a hurry. They were just collecting money from people and just going through the motions, but they didn't expect to run away in fear when they met someone who really dared to risk their lives.

Zhao Zhang's hands were trembling slightly. After getting married, she had never seen such a tough side in her husband. In her eyes, he would always be that kind young man, gentle husband and kind father.

Zhao Hao sighed inwardly. Next, there will be more hurdles to pass, and their loving couple, who are envied by others, may really become separated.

Is God's will so funny?

No, it’s not God’s will! It’s those corrupt officials! There are also those so-called capable ministers and officials who treat the common people as just chickens and dogs for the sake of their own future!

When it prospers, the people suffer; when it dies, the people suffer.

At this moment, Zhao Hao suddenly understood the true meaning of this sentence.

Compared with those corrupt officials, Wang Qinian was an honest official and a good official, but it was he who handed over Wen'an County to the thieves in Hebei!

A massacre will take place as early as tomorrow morning at the latest. If it's earlier, the people of Wen'an may not even be allowed to eat their last supper!

Those who participated in the massacre included officers and soldiers, bandits, the emperor's student army, and even imperial guards!

What kind of world is this?

In the Ming Dynasty, is there still Wangfa?

Suddenly there was a sound of hoofbeats behind him. At this time, Zhao Hao had just led his wife through a side street and was about to cross two alleys and leave the city from the east gate to escape from trouble in Deshengdianli outside the city.

When he left, he had no intention of telling his neighbors or relatives.

Firstly, no one would believe him if he said this, and people would think he was crazy. Secondly, Zhao Hao no longer cares about the life and death of these people.

"Brother, why are you walking in such a panic?" The man chasing after him on horseback was disheveled and was none other than Zhao Hao's younger brother, Zhao Hao and Zhao Erye.

In the official history, this big bandit leader who commanded more than 10,000 troops across Anhui looked at his eldest brother longingly. His meaning was very clear: Are you just going to abandon brotherhood and leave? Where are your parents?

"Go away," Zhao Hao looked at his younger brother and said coldly, "I don't want to kill you. If you want to die, just stay in this city. If you can survive tomorrow morning, come find me again."

Zhao Xiu asked puzzledly: "Tomorrow morning?"

Zhao Hao suddenly listened, jumped up on the spot, kicked his younger brother off the horse, got on the horse, skillfully picked up his wife, put it in front of him, clamped the horse's belly hard, and ran quickly towards the east gate.

go.

His voice came from far away: "Tomorrow morning!"

After two updates, I am leaving the court to ask for votes...
