[Ming] Wuzong's Chronicle of Rebirth
Chapter 125 The 9th Year of Hongzhi
Du Ruo's family has been single-handed down for four generations in his generation, but in ancient times, the fifth generation was the threshold, so Du Ruo still has to take care of his nominal uncles, uncles, cousins and cousins.Du Ruo's great-grandfather's father only gave birth to three sons. Needless to say, Du Ruo's family was single-handed for four generations, but the other two families were very capable of having children, and now they are a big family with a hundred years old.
As the eldest son, Du Ruo's great-grandfather was quite up-to-date and won the honor of a Juren.His son passed the examination for a Juren, and the two of them were rumored for a while because the whole family was a Juren.Du Ruo's grandfather was even more powerful. He passed the Jinshi examination with a colleague. Although he was not a Jinshi, he was still a step ahead of his father and grandfather.He later found a real lack in the southwest and took office by himself. Unfortunately, he soon encountered the Yao people's rebellion, and the officialdom in the southwest was reshuffled. .
After staying in the Northwest for two years, after his wife passed away, he was transferred to the Ministry of Rites because of his merits in sorting out the historical books of the Southwest and Northwest.So Du Yide, who lost his mother in his early years, went to Beijing with his father.Du Ruo's grandfather still remembered the impression of the clan quite clearly, after all, he spent the entire first half of his life there.
In Du Yide's generation, there are only lonely graves in the cemetery and the annual gifts that must be given out on time every year.When it came to Du Ruo, the relationship became even weaker. Even Du Ruo had only been to the clan's cemetery twice, leaving only two memories that were not very good or even painful.He didn't know any of the people in the clan.But what is also indispensable is the generous annual gift every year, and the so-called family letter urging him to go home.Generally speaking, Du Ruo didn't have a good impression of these so-called relatives.
For example, this time, people said it nicely, but the gongs and drums came to pick up the grandpa who had returned to his hometown, so he really didn't give face.Du Ruo didn't have a good reason to refuse. Could it be said that he was investigating Xu Jin, the national hero in the minds of Northwesterners?Du Ruo's breath was stuck in his chest, and he couldn't get up or down, choking him extremely uncomfortable.What's more, there were a group of officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of War congratulating him, their envious expressions made Du Ruo want to vomit blood.
So Du Ruo could only temporarily end his trip to Hami and go to his hometown in Lanzhou.It is said to be in Lanzhou, but in fact the Du family's ancestral house is not here, it is a little further west.It was still Ming's territory before the Tumubao Change, but after that it was abandoned because it was too close to the Tatar occupation.It wasn't until Xu Jin and Zhu Hui successfully defended against the Tatars and Huosai's attacks, and the Tatars were defeated across the board, that the Du family reorganized their ancestral property and rearranged their ancestral house for living.
And Du Ruo was welcomed into this century-old ancient house.Du Ruozu's family can only be a well-to-do family, so this house is not so luxurious and magnificent, even the surrounding walls outside can be seen to be completely newly built, without any old look.As a high-ranking prince, Du Ruo was arranged in the largest and best courtyard, but even so, Du Ruo's subordinates were not particularly satisfied, because they did not arrange Du Ruo in the main house.
This is also a bad debt that is not clear.Du Ruo should be the eldest grandson of the eldest family, and his status is high enough, but in Du Ruo's father's generation, Du Yide gave up the position of patriarch because he lived in the capital for a long time.But when Du Yide died, no one mentioned this stubble at all. At that time, everyone put their experience on Du Ruo's custody battle. It turned out that the eldest son of the second room continued to be his patriarch.Now Du Ruo didn't ask them and didn't mention it, so it was fine, Du Ruo didn't want to be the patriarch of Lao Shizi.
However, after Du Ruo compromised and listened to them time and time again, the patriarch seemed to really treat himself as an onion, and now it was getting more and more excessive.If Du Ruo is the grandson of the head of the family, he is the Duke of the imperial court. Of course, the old house should be renovated and the upper house should be reserved for Du Ruo to live in, but now the patriarch has moved into the upper house in a grandiose manner.Du Ruo lived in this nominally best-repaired courtyard.And judging from what they vaguely revealed, they seem to want Du Ruo to return all the land purchased by the Duke's mansion in Lanzhou to the clan and treat it as clan property.
Both Du Yide's and Jiang's cemeteries are here. In order to guard Du Yide's and Jiang's cemeteries, Du Ruo bought over a thousand mu of high-quality land here to support the people who guard Du Yide's tomb .Although the specifications of the cemetery where Du Yide and the Jiang family are buried are quite different from those of the Du family, it is also in the Du family's cemetery. Such a large piece of good land produces thousands of taels of silver every year. Who would not be tempted to look at it.Du Ruo didn't know if it was just the patriarch's idea or if everyone had already discussed it. In short, Du Ruo knew that they were going to take themselves for granted.
In fact, Du Ruo knew that it was his own fault, and he shouldn't have spoiled these people from the beginning.But he can't help it, the clan is the basis for every Daming person to live and work.It is impossible for Du Ruo to handle everything single-handedly. After all, he is beyond his control in the capital. Du Ruo must rely on his clan in Lanzhou when it comes to the cemetery and ancestor worship of Du Yide and his wife.So Du Ruo can only give them what they want, and endure what they do.
There is a living Duke who makes a sign, and they have collected a lot of money in the past few years, and what they have done is not too much. Du Ruo has always turned a blind eye.However, judging from the recent information, they seem to be going too far, especially when Zhu Houzhao came to power. After Du Ruo made another great contribution, the entire Du family seems to feel that they are honored, and they can't wait to get a share from Du Ruo. Soup to go.
It is still a trivial matter to forcefully buy and sell in the name of the government, and accepting bribes and champering lawsuits are not uncommon.Du Ruo knew that it was time for him to act, otherwise he didn't know what kind of disaster they would cause.
Du Ruo arrived at the ancestral house at night, and saw several very beautiful women setting breakfast there early the next morning, the servants he brought couldn't stop him, so he simply guarded the door of Du Ruo's bedroom to prevent them from coming in.Seeing Du Ruo getting up, the servants rushed to help Du Ruo get dressed.When Du Ruo came out, these Yingyingyanyans had already been reprimanded and stood aside.Seeing Du Ruo's uneasy expression, the servant who chased them away immediately scolded them out.Only then did Du Ruo sit down and enjoy her breakfast with peace of mind.
Only halfway through the meal, Du Yiqian, the current patriarch of the Du family, appeared.Du Ruo had no choice but to temporarily put down his chopsticks to greet him.In terms of seniority, Du Ruo wanted to call Du Yiqian his uncle, but when he heard that Du Yiqian talked about his nephew, Du Ruo felt a little sick to his stomach, and Du Ruo didn't want to call him uncle anymore, so he just called him patriarch.On the contrary, Du Yiqian was overjoyed when he heard Du Ruo calling him that, his face turned into a bun.
After finally dismissing Du Yiqian, each house of Du's family began to send people to the door to make friends and inquire about their tone.Du Ruo's stomach wasn't feeling well at first, but seeing the waves of people coming and going, they simply claimed to be sick and saw no one.The last time Du Ruo returned to his hometown, Zhu Youtang thought that he was young, and those who accompanied him back were people from the palace, and they cleaned the mansion here in the Duke's Mansion in advance.There are people in the palace to help Du Ruo block, Du Ruo sees that there are very few people.Especially when some unhappy things happened later, Eunuch Niu, who followed Du Ruo, directly pushed Du Ruo back to the capital, fearing that he would be frightened.
This time, they came in a hurry, did not bring enough manpower, and coupled with the exhaustion of the journey for several months, Du Ruo was so tired of dealing with them.Although he said he was sick and no one was seen, the entire Du clan opened an ancestral hall to worship ancestor Du Ruo at noon.This time it was just a small-scale ancestor worship activity, mainly to welcome Du Ruo back to his hometown.After the complete set of ceremonies, the entire Du clan held a feast, and basically all the Du clan members who could arrive attended this gathering.
Not only the members of the Du clan, but basically all the famous local people showed up.They only told Du Ruo that this was a gathering of members of the Du clan, but they didn't tell Du Ruo that the venue was so big.Du Ruo's face froze to deal with such a single person, and seeing Du Yiqian who was chatting happily with the guests and several members of the Du clan with higher generations, Du Ruo's face would not be able to hold on any longer.If he didn't still care about Du's surname, Du Ruo would just throw his sleeves away.
After the banquet, Du Ruo, who locked himself in the courtyard and saw no one, met someone he had already made an appointment with, a young general under Zhang Yue, Yuan Yuze, the son of Zhu Houzhao's martial arts master.He is also the head of a thousand households now, and being able to achieve this position in his thirties can be regarded as a successful young man.Du Ruo didn't see him to reminisce about the old days, but for the Du family's affairs.
"The subordinates have already received the letter from the Duke of the State, and everything is ready, and they can act when the Lord of the State gives an order." Zhu Houzhao and Du Ruo grew up together in this life, and even the teachers and masters basically all the same.Yuan Yuze's father was not only Zhu Houzhao's martial arts master who practiced martial arts when he was young, but also the riding and archery master of Zhu Houzhao and Du Ruo later. The friendship of more than ten years is not for nothing.Logically speaking, Du Ruo should still call Yuan Yuze his senior brother.
"Then this matter will be troublesome, senior brother. I don't know where General Zhang is now, and when is it convenient to visit." Yuan Yuze is not only a simple general, but also a bridge of communication that both Zhang Yue and Zhu Houzhao trust.There is a certain degree of control between them, most of Zhang Yue's itinerary will not be hidden from Yuan Yuze, and Yuan Yuze is also responsible for communication and coordination between him and Zhu Houzhao.If you want to know where Zhang Yue is now, you can definitely ask Yuan Yuze.
"The general went to Datong in person a few days ago, it may not be convenient to see him now." Du Ruo nodded to show that he understood. "In that case, I'll find you tomorrow to catch up on the old days. Get ready to drink well, and we won't go home until we're drunk."
Since he wanted to cheat these people, he definitely couldn't stay in the Du family's old house, otherwise it really wouldn't make sense.It seems a good reason not to talk to Zhang Yue, but to be with this senior brother. "I don't dare to give good wine to my junior brother, otherwise my father's riding whip will be ready when I go home. But the food is as much as you want."
