Dawei Fanghua

Chapter 4 Too Disappointed

In the study room on the attic, Qin Liang was carefully looking at a piece of mulberry paper.He didn't realize anyone came in until he heard Zhang's voice.

Zhang's voice sounded very angry: "Erlang still has the heart to read here?!"

Qin Liang's eyes moved away from the mulberry paper. When he looked up, he looked a little embarrassed and blurted out: "I remember when Emperor Ming (Cao Rui) was granted the title of Pingyuan County, my eldest brother copied a map back from the county government. I searched all over before. I searched the whole mansion but couldn't find the picture. I thought I remembered it wrong..."

At this time, he breathed a sigh of relief again, "Unexpectedly, other text and graphics were written on bamboo slips, but this picture was copied on mulberry paper. So I looked everywhere for bamboo slips at first, ignoring that there was still paper."

After he finished speaking, he realized that his words were a bit meaningless. He just said what he was thinking, but when he turned around and thought that it would take more than a few words to explain this matter clearly, he could only sigh.Sure enough, Mrs. Zhang frowned and looked at him, as if she was too angry to speak.

Qin Liang thought for a while and explained as best he could: "This map is the most accurate and authoritative evidence of county boundaries. With it, you can find help. As long as you point out the key source of the matter directly, the reason for the false accusation will be logical and obvious. Without it, the big shots might treat the elder brother’s affairs as trivial public security matters and send them to the county to handle.”

Mrs. Zhang said coldly: "Who does Erlang want to find?"

Qin Liang said: "Of course it is the superior of the two counties of Pingyuan and Qinghe, the governor of Jizhou. Otherwise, who do you think we should look for?" (Mu and the governor are both the governors of the same state. Mu was abolished in the Han Dynasty and re-established in the Three Kingdoms. The governor is the supervisor in name.)
Only then did he notice that his sister-in-law had changed her clothes and came back from outside, and he immediately asked: "Sister-in-law went to find He Jun?"

Zhang said: "I think it is more useful to find He Jun! At least the Qin family has some connections with the He family, and Erlang has a personal relationship with He Jun, so they can talk to each other. Do you know who the governor of Jizhou is?"

Qin Liang immediately replied: "Lü Zhao, who also leads the general of Zhenbei, was granted the title by the Ming Emperor."

Zhang changed his words and said, "Do you know him?"

Qin Liang gritted his teeth and said: "If officials would only do things for people they know, the Wei Dynasty would have been destroyed by Wu and Shu long ago. The key is that we know He Jun and it won't be of much use. He can't control this matter."

Zhang remains stubborn.Perhaps it was just because she didn't believe in Qin Liang's scholarly knowledge at all, her voice said: "He Jun's father was a minister of the dynasty and a minister of the Ministry of Personnel. Your Lu family also said that General Cao Gong (Cao Shuang) and the He family Make good friends. With such power, what can’t be accomplished?”

Qin Liang couldn't answer for a while, because it was very complicated to explain, and some things were difficult to explain clearly. After all, he had to guard against misfortune coming out of his mouth.My sister-in-law Zhang is also very powerful. What she says may not make sense, but it is simple and intuitive. This way of expression is at least very useful when arguing.

Qin Liang had no intention of arguing and could only say: "It is better to go to Anping County first and try to see Lu Zhao."

Mrs. Zhang frowned and stared at him for a while, sighed, turned around and left.She walked to the door, turned around and said: "Erlang, how did your brother treat you! You let me down so much!"

Her back disappeared through the door.Even though Qin Liang prided himself on being mentally mature and confident, Zhang's expression and tone stung him a bit.Because this once again made him feel the experience of failure in his previous life. No matter how good his mentality was, it was hard not to let others get in trouble if his closest family members complained all day long.

He even recalled the scene when his wife secretly burned his old clothes after she was diagnosed with cancer in his previous life.According to superstition, if your relatives burn your clothes, you will die quickly.

Qin Liang spent a while trying to get rid of those irrelevant emotions. He took a deep breath and tried his best to calm down and think.

Regardless of the fact that Qin Liang was not very optimistic about Cao Shuang, that was a long-term worry; even if he only focused on urgent matters, he still felt that the young master He Jun was really unreliable.Mr. He most likely has neither the will nor the ability to influence this matter.And He Yan, the official minister, seems to have no hope either.

Qin Liang weighed it up and made up his mind to do what he wanted first.

He called Rao Dashan, the village guest, and ordered his horses and food to be prepared at dawn the next day. Then he returned to his room and began to prepare his luggage.He has the clerical credentials of a Tai student, so it won't be a big problem on the road, but can he meet a governor just by being a Tai student?
He thought about it and decided to write an article and send it.In this era, articles are more popular than people, because those who can write articles are not ordinary people.

Fortunately, Qin Liang still has some ancient scriptures in his mind. Otherwise, with Chen Xiaoqiang's skills, he would only be able to write some half-written articles.After all, he was not majoring in ancient Chinese.

When Qin Liang was kneeling in front of the case and conceiving, he heard Rao Dashan's rough voice: "Erlang, the wife of the Wang family wants to see you."

"Oh." Qin Liang responded.

Rao Dashan said: "I asked her to come up and then went to feed the horse."

After a while, Ms. Dong walked in the door. She changed her usual aggressive attitude and huddled up.Her eyes were a little swollen, she had obviously cried, and there was a fear of the unknown in her eyes.Looks like someone asking for forgiveness.

Qin Liang didn't wait for her to say anything, and directly ordered: "Get some water and help me grind the ink." Dong was stunned for a moment and responded: "No."

She ran around and worked for a while, then knelt in front of Qin Liang and carefully rubbed ink in the inkstone.Or maybe Qin Liang looked so focused that she didn't dare to say anything anymore.

At this time, Qin Liang had roughly thought of the content.

Of course, what is written on the slips is not the same thing as what is said in daily life, even by the ancients.First of all, there must be an upright intention, and then the language must be concise, otherwise there will be a lot of bamboo slips.

He planned to focus on the boundary dispute between Qinghe and Pingyuan counties, focusing on giving Lu Zhao a high hat.Trouble has arisen on the territory of General Zhenbei. Fights and false accusations often occur. Please ask the general to use fair means to stop the trouble and calm the place. All the officials and people in the county and county will be in awe... Although some family members have advised him to entrust Qin Liang to Relatives and friends, rescue the eldest brother, but I firmly believe that the general hero, the humerus of the country, must be able to distinguish right from wrong.

Qin Liang picked up his pen and started writing on the bamboo slips. There was almost only a faint sound of "rustling" in the pavilion.

I don't know how long it took, Qin Liang finished writing the draft and let out a long breath.Only then did he suddenly see that Mr. Dong was still beside him.

He put the brush on the inkstone and said, "What happened in the village recently has nothing to do with you. You don't need to put unfounded charges on your head."

"Really?" Dong asked carefully.

Qin Liang said: "At most, it's a bit of a teaser, but the point is that the people from Zhong Chang's family want to take advantage of the situation. Some people are greedy and push for more, and want to annex our family's fertile land and supporting farmers. It's impossible for you, a woman, to do this. Take the blame.”

Dong's expression of concern was sincere: "Will Mr. Qin be okay?"

Qin Liang said: "I will find a way to rescue brother."

Mrs. Dong nodded vigorously: "Erlang is a man who can do great things and achieve great things. I believe in Erlang." Her voice became lower and lower as she spoke, "When I see Erlang writing and doing things, I look like a benevolent and wise lord."

Qin Liang smiled bitterly and said casually: "It would be better if my sister-in-law could think so."

Dong's eyes suddenly changed and returned to the way they were when she first entered the door, "I..."

When Qin Liang saw this, he immediately said: "Don't think too much, just go back."

Dong finally said no more, knelt on the ground and said, "No."

After she got up from the ground, Qin Liang raised his chin again.When Mrs. Dong walked to the door and turned around, she turned her head and looked this way again.

Qin Liang continued his own business, found the slips, copied them neatly again, and then checked what he needed to prepare.The eldest brother is behind bars, and things cannot be delayed for a day. Although the preparations are hasty, Qin Liang feels that he is quite organized.

I just couldn't sleep well at night and couldn't help but think too much.

The next morning, before dawn, Qin Liang took Zhuangke Rao Dashan and set off on horseback. The place they wanted to go was Anping County, the prefecture of Jizhou. Just take the post road.The sister-in-law and a group of bankers sent them outside the earthen wall of the manor.

The two were holding torches.The road was not only dark, but also covered with fog in the early morning. Qin Liang looked at the road ahead and saw only gray.
