Chapter 754: Raiding the House
"Good, good!"
Xiao Shaotang smiled and lowered his head to grab Bai Chenghuan's hand, and sighed with emotion:
"Thank you, Queen, for knowing the righteousness!"
Bai Chenghuan shook off his hand, turned around and left:
"I don't understand the righteousness, I'm going to take the life of the Feng family!"
"Huanhuan, listen to me!" Xiao Shaotang felt a twitch in his heart, and hurriedly chased after him, the emperor who was still thundering and angry in the Taiji Hall just now was no different from other men who annoyed his sweetheart.
"I don't want to listen to you!"
The two of them were entangled like cats and mice for a while, Xiao Shaotang still got his wish in the end, firmly held Bai Chenghuan's jade-like hand, and snickered in his heart-
He knew her strength, and if he was really angry, he really couldn't hold these hands today!
He hugged her and walked back, explaining as he went:
"Huanhuan, I know that this matter has wronged you, but the treasury is not angry - I owe you this matter, I remember in my heart, will I compensate you sooner or later?"
Bai Chenghuan stopped and looked at him, with a hint of cunning in his eyes:
"Xiao Shaotang, do you really think you're wrong about this matter?"
"Yes, I was wrong!" Xiao Shaotang didn't notice the smile in the depths of her eyes, but just happily admitted her mistake.
Bai Chenghuan looked at him fixedly for a while, and shook his head slightly:
"But Xiao Shaotang, I don't think you're wrong. β
"Huanhuan ......"
Xiao Shaotang was stunned:
"Am I wrong or not...... You, you're really making me dizzy......"
Bai Chenghuan looked down at his strong and powerful hands, pulled his hands up with his backhand, and said with a slight smile:
"Xiao Shaotang, your hands are not only used to protect me, but also to protect your people, so it's just to spare some dispensable people, what are you sorry for me?"
"Huanhuan, you ......" Xiao Shaotang's eyes flowed with shock, "Aren't you angry that I didn't consult you for what I mean, so I made my own decisions?"
"I'm naturally angry, so I'm going to play tricks on youβother than that, I think it's the best solution. β
The woman in front of her was dressed in a lotus-colored palace dress, with green silk and high silk, and a smile in her eyes that made people feel at ease, and was looking at him gently:
"The Feng family has been abandoned by the officialdom of the capital for so long, even if they forgive them, it is not a big deal, if you want to make a comeback, it depends on whether you agree or not. Then let them give all their property, what will happen in the future, you can imagine that such a punishment is also the most suitable for them. β
She raised her head and pointed to the faint outline of the majestic mountains and rivers outside the capital, and her voice was extremely gentle:
"It's not your fault that we've got it, but it's not your fault that you've gone to great lengths to repair it and cherish itβthat's where you are wise as an emperor. β
"So, Xiao Shaotang, how could I be angry with you? I don't want my husband to be a mediocre emperor who only cares about beauty and doesn't care about the country. β
Xiao Shaotang kept staring at her black and white eyes, and did not speak, because he found that in these eyes that he thought were very familiar, he saw another color.
Being stared at by him in silence like this, Bai Chenghuan gradually began to feel embarrassed, and reached out to cover his eyes:
"Why are you looking at me like this? Do you think I'm not right, or do you think I should be like a real little woman, arguing with you and not stopping until I reach my goal?"
"Nope. β
Xiao Shaotang took her hand away from her eyes, her eyes shone with a hot light, and without hesitation, she pressed her whole person in front of her chest that was surging with hot currents.
"I don't know if you are different from other women, but Huanhuan, I really like you like this. I've never liked someone like this except you. β
She can understand the choices he made out of desperation, and can forgive him for his self-assertions, so that he can still get such a joy after facing the intricacies of the court.
Such a her, whether it is the queen or his wife, for him, it is probably the luck of several lifetimes to meet her in this life.
Bai Chenghuan's laughter came from the hem of his dragon robe:
"I'm so good, of course you have to like me, of course, you're also very hard. β
Xiao Shaotang laughed silently, being an emperor is actually the hardest thing in the world, especially if you want to be a good emperor, it is even harder.
But with such a person by his side, he doesn't feel hard.
And today's debt to her, he has to find a way to make up for it.
After thinking about it, Xiao Shaotang had an idea:
"Huanhuan, how about we secretly go to the street on the Shangyuan Festival?"
"Parade?!
Bai Chenghuan raised his head, and a bright spark ignited in his eyes:
"When the time comes, we'll go secretly and don't let anyone know!"
This light made Xiao Shaotang's heart sour, as the emperor and queen, he got the supreme honor, but he also lost the freedom of ordinary people.
He took her to the palace and sighed:
"Huanhuan, the person who really worked hard, it's you. β
"yes, I think I'm working hard......
The laughter of the two spilled all the way, and the palace people who had just retreated to the side hurriedly followed silently.
"The emperor is really good to his mother...... The emperor is really a gentle person. β
There are palace maids who are quietly envious in private, and the look in their eyes gradually increases.
was heard by Ah Hua, Ah Hua couldn't say anything wrong, but immediately gave the palace maid a roll of the eyes:
"If you can be as beautiful and capable as the queen mother, naturally there will be people who are gentle with you!"
The palace maid smiled and walked away, Ah Hua snorted coldly and went to Shao Hui to complain.
"What does she mean by that? What does the emperor's gentleness have to do with her?"
Shao Hui thought about it, and her heart was bright, but she didn't make it clear to Ah Hua, she just said:
"Probably just talking about it. I heard that in the past, there could not be a palace maid in front of the abolished emperor, and the palace maid would be punished if she dared to appear in front of him without authorization, so compared to that one, the emperor was gentle, which is not wrong. β
"Well, that's right. β
The innocent Ah Hua quickly accepted this statement, and did not get along with the palace maid anymore, but Shao Hui quietly found an excuse to transfer people out of Huaqing Palace.
There are so many women in the palace, but there is only such a young, handsome and gentle emperor, and you can't blame those palace maids for being confused.
It's just that they are here, and whoever wants to spoil the blessing of the queen mother will never be allowed.
The emperor and queen in the palace are harmonious, and outside the palace, the Feng family, who has just received the holy decree, is a land of applause.
"Liang, did you promise the queen something privately? Why do you want to take away all our family property?
Mrs. Feng did not hesitate to think that it was all Liang Sirong's fault, and pointed at Liang Sirong and scolded.
But Liang Sirong no longer let her abuse as before, but straightened his back and said directly:
"When will I be in charge at home? Have I said anything to the queen, let's go to the queen and ask, and we'll know as soon as we ask!"
"Who is saying this, who is going to do this to us?"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quarreled, and Feng Jinniang instantly turned white.
And outside the gate, Master Feng was also like a blow to the head, he didn't care about his demeanor, and shouted:
"What do you mean, what do you mean by giving all your possessions? You can't go in!"
However, after shouting without two sentences, it was taken down by the inner servants who came to deliver the decree.
"Master Feng, our family is also acting on orders, you are still disciplined, let our family count the family property you want to give out as soon as possible, go back to hand in the errand earlier, and let the emperor remember your old man's work, it is the right thing!"
"No! we didn't say we'd give, we never said that!"
Master Feng felt aggrieved and wronged, and the waiter immediately sank his face and waved his hand behind him:
"It seems that Master Feng, you are trying to bully the king, since this is the case, don't blame our family for being polite!"
The Imperial Forest Army, who deliberately followed to count the Feng family's property, under the leadership of Yao Zezan, the Duke of Ningguo, immediately broke into the Feng family in batches.
The Feng family was suddenly in chaos inside and out, but fortunately, Yao Zezan still had some mercy, and he didn't think about killing them all, so he ordered someone to notify the Feng family's daughters in advance to avoid it.
Then he found out the Feng family's steward, the account room, and began to count the Feng family's property one by one.
Because they had never thought about this result before, and they didn't have the slightest preparation, even if the Feng family wanted to hide a little property, it was too late.
Master Feng was restrained by the Imperial Forest Army, and Mrs. Feng was driven to the inner house, where she was surrounded by other female dependents, crying and scolding.
Mrs. Feng's eldest daughter-in-law is the eldest daughter of Chen Qi in the household department, and she looked at her mother-in-law and younger siblings who were arguing, and her heart was cold.
How could this be? How did she get to such a point?
On weekdays, she only cares about her husband and children, although the Feng family has lost power, she has never felt any difference in eating, drinking and dressing.
At this time, suddenly someone wanted to take away everything from her, and she was completely stunned.
But fortunately, the years of calm and water have not completely worn away her alertness.
The words "holy decree" and "family property" kept wandering in her heart, and a thought finally flashed through her mind, and she stepped forward and grabbed her mother-in-law, who was still scolding:
"Mother-in-law, don't quarrel yet! Since it's a holy decree, this is a raid! First guarantee our dowry!"
"Dowry?"
Mrs. Feng was suddenly said by her eldest daughter-in-law, which was like someone ringing an alarm bell in her ear!
"Yes, the dowry! The dowry is not the property of the Feng family!"
According to the law of Daqi, the dowry when a woman marries is considered the woman's private property, and it can be taken away whether it is renunciation, divorce or righteousness.
And if the husband's family commits a crime and confiscates the family property, the dowry will not be counted.
Mrs. Feng immediately ran out, and she didn't care about the defense of men and women, so she desperately grabbed a passing Imperial Forest Army:
"Don't touch my dowry!
But the Guards ignored her:
"We only follow Commander Yao's orders to act, it's useless for you to tell us!"
Mrs. Feng had no choice but to let go, and she was going to run out to find Yao Zezan again.
Yao Zezan was still looking at Master Feng at the door.
"Yao Zezan, what was it like for your Ningguo Mansion to be raided and exterminated back then? How can you bear to do the same to our family now?!"
After scolding for a while to no avail, Master Feng went crazy and began to poke Yao Zezan's wounds, hoping that Yao Zezan would sympathize with him a little.
But he didn't know that Yao Zezan had gone through so many years of ups and downs, and he was no longer the heart of the year, and he was poked in the heart like this, so he just sneered and said:
"It seems that compared with our Ning Guogong back then, Master Feng's days are really good! At least you are just raiding the family, and you have not exterminated the clan, if Master Feng thinks that he wants to be like our Yao family, then I can also go back and tell the emperor, how about asking for the destruction of the whole clan for your Feng family?"
"You, you!"
Master Feng was so angry that his beard trembled, but he didn't dare to scold anymore, compared with the raiding of the family, the extermination of the clan was the most tragic end!
Yao Zezan smiled predictively, and said to the angry Master Feng:
"What's more, our Ningguo Mansion was innocent and convicted back then, but your Feng family deserves it!"
"The Feng family deserves it, but you are not allowed to take away my Wu family's dowry!"
Mrs. Feng broke out crying, and rushed to Yao Zezan's side.
Yao Zezan dodged it with agility, but frowned because of this.
Yes, the Feng family's property is to be taken away, but the emperor didn't say anything about the dowry of the Feng family's daughters.
If he was the emperor in the past, Yao Zezan felt that it would not be a big deal to copy them together, but now that he is following Xiao Shaotang, Yao Zezan feels that he needs to be cautious.
He immediately sent someone into the palace to ask the emperor what he meant.
Xiao Shaotang came to Bai Chenghuan:
"What do you think you should do?"
If you want to say that she offended Bai Chenghuan at the beginning, Mrs. Feng was definitely the main reason, so easily spared it, Xiao Shaotang was afraid that Bai Chenghuan would feel uncomfortable.
But Bai Chenghuan made a decision without much hesitation:
"That's it, although Mrs. Feng is really angry, there is no need to knock over all the jade bottles of the Feng family for the sake of her, a mouse. Even if it's not for others, it depends on Sixian's face. Keep the dowry of the Feng family's daughters. β
At the beginning of the founding of the country, Queen Dugu deliberately revised the law on women's dowry, in order to give innocent women a way to live in such a strict world.
Although she was not very happy to see that the Feng family would still live a good life with the dowry of their daughters in the future, there was no need to be resentful about this and force the daughters of the Feng family into a desperate situation.
"Okay, listen to you!"
Being able to get all the Feng family's property over, Xiao Shaotang is already very satisfied.
And after Master Feng heard the news, he was helpless, and began to think in his heart.
The family property was all copied, which he couldn't stop, but the dowries of his wife and daughters-in-law could be kept, and it was enough for the Feng family to slowly recover.
It's just that Master Feng never expected that his abacus would not be able to start at all.
As soon as the news of the Feng family's confiscation of family property spread, the Feng family's in-laws all felt that the Feng family was asking for their own death!
"It's good, you have to provoke the emperor, such a person, even if you don't get raided this time, there will be a next time!"
"This dowry can still be kept, if it is really annihilated, our daughter will definitely not be able to keep it!"
Chen Qi summed up with his wife at home in the household department, but he felt sorry for his daughter, so he immediately found someone to come to the door and asked his daughter to reconcile with the Feng family!
Needless to say, since Liang Sirong quietly sent a message to Liang Sixian saying that he was going to reconcile, Liang Sixian went to ask his father Liang Guogong to call the shots without saying a word.
Liang Guogong was originally a little hesitant, but as soon as this incident came out, he immediately sent someone to the door to make decisions for his niece.
Master Feng's illusions were shattered in an instant, and he was so angry that he scolded:
"You guys are trying to drive my Feng family to a dead end!"
