Chapter 488 Lead the snake out of the hole (4)

Until Songjiang got off the boat, the "Nigui" not only gave Shenzhu a Duan inkstone and an ancient painting, but also visited Songjiang in person to witness the prosperity of the Shen family in Songjiang. Songjiang's fertile fields returned to the Shen family in three out of ten. How huge it is Numbers; three parts of the shops in Songjiang prefectures belong to the Shen family. It is only because the Shen family is studying and inheriting the family, and the number of people who have been in office for more than a hundred years has been continuously increasing, so they can protect their families, avoid the greed and peeping of outsiders, and become a leader. Local snakes in Songjiang.

The noble man was only twenty-five or six years old, with noble behavior and extraordinary appearance. With the beautiful maid who was accompanied by the guards and staff, Chen Zhu had speculations in his heart and became more and more flattering.

After learning about it for a while, the noble man did not directly mention the Shen family, but just held injustice for Chen Zhu. The noble man said that the Shen family's children were unique, and Chen Zhu was also a child prodigy. He shot the first bird with a gun, which made him afraid and suppressed. The career will not go well. The nobleman also mentioned that the chief examiner of the Nanzhili provincial examination last year was not someone else, but the house teacher of Chen Li's that year, and he could not say that Chen Zhu failed the exam after being Shen Li's instructions.

After half a year, Chen Zhu had long forgotten the anxiety and discomfort when he responded. The rest were all the depression of not being able to appreciate his talent. After hearing the noble man's words, the more he thought about it, the more he meant. Even Chen Quan, a dull person, passed the village examination. It’s unreasonable that I, a “child prodigy” who was praised by the Mongolian tribe as a child, failed.

Since the noble man said that the current clan leader of the Shen family was incompetent, the rooms were scattered and people with ability were needed to integrate. Chen Zhu substituted himself and felt that he was like the clan leader and the grandfather of the past, he was also a proud thing to be the leader of the clan when he called him. In that case, no matter Shen, Chen Jin, Shen Rui, and others, they must be polite. If they really want to anger themselves, they will get rid of them and leave them without a place to stay.

But Chen Zhu is not stupid, so he must also inquire about the identity of a noble person. The noble person is becoming more and more unfathomable and never let Chen Zhu find it to the end. When the noble person leaves, he suggests that he will support Chen Zhu as the leader of the Shen family, and Chen Zhu is I felt a little more awake and less eager, and I thought the other party was fooling people. I didn’t expect that a Fujian merchant would come to Songjiang and bring him a token of noble people. The opportunity to Shenzhu came.

Speaking of this, Chen Zhu was crying loudly: "I don't know they were going to kill people. Since they were pulling the He family, I just thought they had other plans to pull the Shen family into the water, so as to threaten the six tribes. Brother, I didn’t expect that they were Japanese pirates and would actually go into the city to rob. It was the He family, and they were all the He family..."

Two months later, Chen Zhu had already thought about it. Because he was the insider himself, the suspicion of "transmitting Japanese" is now tightly placed on the Shen family, and the disaster of the Shen family is right in front of him. As for the Shen clan, even if he is the leader of the clan, he is just a false reputation. Instead, the He family, holding the handle of the Shen family, has bribed the prefect Zhao, and is waiting to annex the Shen family's property and take advantage of the fisherman.

Chen Zhu regretted it too much, but he had no room for regret, so he could only be trembling. Because the Master Jiufang knew some of the fur, he was afraid that he would be pushed out these days, so he paid attention to the Lord Jiufang and knew that when he went out, he would bring people. Go to intercept.

Chen Zhu was crying in a mess, but Shen Rui suddenly realized that he had not heard of it and fell into deep thought.

Chen Zhu was born in the Shen family and grew up in the Shen family. Even though the third house was just a business business, he was a gentry style in terms of food, clothing and consumption. He could suppress Chen Zhu in terms of momentum, and was recognized as a "noble man" by Chen Zhu. That is definitely not an ordinary person. Of course, it is not an ordinary person to rob the city under the name of Japanese pirates. Such fierceness is not something that ordinary people do. Born in Jiangnan, there is really a "noble man" who has left a mark in history. Others are Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao.

Ningfan was the first king of King Ningxian, Zhu Quan, and the sixteenth son of Emperor Taizu. At the age of 16, he was granted the title of King Ning. In the later Jingnan Campaign, Emperor Chengzu threatened to "grab the river and rule the world equally" The King of Ning joined forces, but did not want to wait until Emperor Chengzu gained the power of the country. Not only did he not exchange his promise, he also moved the King of Ning from Daning to Nanchang and seized all his military power.

Due to this origin, several generations of Ning Wang were unfair. When the fourth generation of Ning Wang Zhu Chenhao, his ambition continued to expand. He first bribed Liu Jin beside Emperor Zhengde and restored the escort of Ning Wang, who was cut off. Later, because Emperor Zhengde had no The son sent his son to Beijing to obtain the position of heir; after the final attempt was not achieved, he directly raised the flag of the anti-bank.

Calculate the time, now is when King Ning Zhu Chenhao succeeded the throne for several years, the vassal states were stable, and his ambitions were first revealed, and he wanted to restore the vassal king's guards.

The time when King Ning and Chen Zhu met, the time when King Ning took turns to Beijing to pay homage to the emperor again

Although Shen Rui had no evidence, he felt that it was probably him.

Chen Zhu went from one horn to another. I don’t know if he was “waking up” or trying to “redeem his sins”, and said, “Rui Geer, tell the brothers of the six clans that this is the conspiracy of the He family. Since he fought against the eldest uncle of the second wife After dying, the He family thought that the Shen family's official position was not as good as the He family, so they began to peek at the Shen family's industry. Otherwise, they would not have used the sign of the fourth uncle to embezzle the three-bedroom industry, but they were greedy and wanted to kill the Shen family in one go. .That big liar, from the capital to Songjiang, must be from the He family!”

Chen Zhu is so resentful that he was looking forward to the "noble man" at the beginning.

Shen Rui did not think that the He family would take risks and make friends with vassal kings thousands of miles away. "The rabbit doesn't eat grass by the nest." Although it was the He family who came out with Chen Zhu to intercept the master of Jiufang, it was indeed the He family. It may not be the person of the acting patriarch He Xisheng. This time the "Japanese pirates" came ashore to rob, and the Shen family suffered a lot of losses, but the He family was not spared.

Whether it is He Dongsheng, the eldest master of the He family or the second master of He Xisheng, Shen Rui has seen them, and they are all sleek and sophisticated people. Even if they want to expand the power of the He family, He Xisheng will do things in a roundabout way, pushing the Shen family forward. , did not directly face the Shen family. Although these two brothers have ambitions to surpass the Shen family, they are both the ones who take one step and look at it three times, so they are not only not the mastermind, but most of them are like the Shen family. Therefore, In danger.

Since King Ning planned to restore Ning Wangwei, the first thing he wanted was to raise money and raise soldiers and do the robbery of Songjiang Mansion. It was not unusual. But since there was a ship, it was not a sea ship, but a river ship.

"Who is the waiter around the noble man?" Shen Rui said.

When Chen Zhu heard this, he hesitated and showed some advice, "Apart from the beautiful maid, there are a few young men who are as beautiful as girls."

If not, Chen Zhu would not have taken the words of "noble people" to support himself as the head of the Shen family. There has always been a manly style in Jiangnan. Although Chen Zhu has not experienced it personally, there are often beautiful servants around the master of the third room. But it was influenced by the eyes. Therefore, I felt a little happy and nervous, and felt that the nobleman looked at him with a little deeper meaning. Although I could not accept this feeling, I was unwilling to be too cold.

"Young people? They are all teenagers? They are not as good as the champion?" Shen Rui asked.

Chen Zhu thought for a while and said, "The leader among them is not a few years younger than the liar. But he is raised by Xiang Gu. He still speaks and acts with a feminine spirit. He only wins the rules, and moves like a rule. It seems that It was taught."

There is no feminine spirit, it is just a eunuch, lacking androgen. "Movement and stillness are like a ruler", but they are all trained by the palace. Although there are eunuchs in the local vassal palaces, they do not have the right to recruit people directly, and they are sent by the capital. Of course, they are all young eunuchs who have been trained.

After getting what he knew, Shen Rui did not continue to listen to Chen Zhu's confession and curse, and ordered someone to take care of him and went back to the city.

After returning to the sect room, Chen Hai was also there, his face was less solemn and he showed a little relaxed. It seemed that Chen Li's previous magistrate's office had good news.

Looking at Shen Rui's busy appearance, Chen Hai's eyes looked inquired: "I heard that Brother Rui has gone out of the city?"

Shen Rui nodded and said, "Brother Ying Quan San is entrusted to inquire about Qi Er's sister-in-law and his son."

Hearing this, Chen Hai's expression changed slightly, and he wanted to speak but stopped.

The Shen family is innocent, the man has no punishment, and the woman has no remarried woman. Even though he knows that the second grandmother Qi is innocent, she has been wandering outside for two months and her reputation has disappeared. Therefore, Chen Hai is more embarrassed. In his opinion, he sees it. Come on, it would be fine if you find a dead person, it would be unfamiliar with the reputation of the Shen clan; if you find a living person, how to place it is the problem.

Shen Rui thought Chen Hai had some clues at first, and was about to ask, but when he reacted, he couldn't help but feel angry. Although the ethics were strict and extremely harsh on women, after all, there was a reason for the incident. Is it impossible for the safety of the mother and son to be safe? An indecent reputation?

Thinking of Chen Qi, who was in trouble, Shen Rui complained about Chen Hai three more times.

Officials operate local areas and have never been willing to offend local gentry and have more room for work. If Chen Qi and others were arrested, Chen Hai's attitude would be tougher, it would be said that things would be another direction of development.

Perhaps Chen Hai himself knew that he was not kind enough to think, and did not say anything he would not let anyone find him. He only said that he had prepared Jiang Xian and asked Chen Li to take Shen Rui to the backyard for dinner at night.

Chen agreed and got up and sent Chen Hai out.

Shen Rui followed behind, looking at Chen Hai's slightly hunched back and his gray hair on his sideburns, he felt a little depressed.

Although the Shen family is known as the prominent family in Songjiang, their true confidence is the children of the Shen family who are officials outside. Chen Li and Chen Jin are both potential stocks, and they can't control the same side now. Shen Cheng and Chen Ying are all working on their qualifications and want to It will take ten or twenty years of elites to reach a high position.

Ning Wang's plan to rob, Zhao Xianzhong's choice, and He's taking advantage of the situation all show that the Shen family was regarded as a meat bun, and everyone wants to take a bite. This can't continue like this, otherwise there will be another chance to escape this disaster. Please wait. Songjiang not only has Chen, He and several other major families, and the fertile land shops of the Shen family are all the targets of being looked at.

Watching Chen Hai's back leave, Chen Li asked, "What did Brother Rui ask?"

Shen Rui said the content of Chen Zhu's confession, listened quietly, and his face became solemn.
