Chapter 888: Quick Knife Cuts Through the Mess
[There are no eunuchs, but I have fallen into the decadence of the New Year, and then from today, I will enter a new era in February...... Well, there will be updates in the evening. γ
The eighth day of November in the thirteenth year of Guangde.
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, more than 40 young and strong male servants formed a loose phalanx outside the living room door of the Sun Mansion.
In front of the phalanx, Wang Jin, Liu Quan, and Sun Xi knelt on the ground in a row - the three people who had no obvious difference in height knelt out of the hierarchy.
Sun Xi trembled, almost prostrate on the ground.
He is not a slave in this family, and it stands to reason that Sun Shaozong will not punish him in a way that oversteps his authority.
But right now, when Nanzong is relying on Sun Shaozu and Sun Shaozong's brothers, even if it is just to show his attitude, he will inevitably punish him heavily.
Thinking of his originally good future, it is likely to be over because of drunken nonsense, and Sun Xi's ruined intestines are green.
Compared with Sun Xi, Wang Jin is much calmer, after all, he is nominally a victim.
But no matter how calm he is, his kneeling posture is much more humble than Liu Quan in the center - at least he doesn't dare and will never bend his neck at this time and confront Steward Zhao on the steps.
That's right, until now, Liu Quan is still in a fearless posture.
It's not that he doesn't think that he has any mistakes, but he feels that these small mistakes can't be compared with his own merits.
Except for him Liu Quan, who in this mansion can bring back hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to the Sun family?!
If you pile up the silver with white flowers, I'm afraid it will be enough to bury ten kings alive!
And he, Liu Quan, just gave Wang Jin a few old punches last night, what can be tightened?
Could it be that the second master is such a reasonable master, and he can still do the thing of unloading the mill and killing the donkey?
If this is the case, who is willing to work hard among the minions of this house?
With such thoughts, Liu Quan not only didn't think that today's big battle would have any adverse impact on him, but decided that this was a good opportunity.
A great opportunity to cash in on your credit!
He was depressed, and he couldn't 'speak up' in front of the second master immediately, how could he put Cho Joong Ki in his eyes?
What's more, Liu Quan has long decided in his heart that Zhao Joong Ki has been suppressing himself openly and secretly, otherwise why would the servants of this mansion not come to hug their thighs, but become more and more estranged from themselves?
The corpse is vegetarian, and the virtuous are jealous!
desperately labeled Zhao Joong Ki in his heart, and the provocation in Liu Quan's eyes became more and more serious.
At this moment, a dull sound of footsteps came from far and near, and when the burly and majestic body appeared in the verandah, the phalanx became silent.
Even Liu Quan subconsciously lowered his head - he still didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Sun Shaozong.
said that Sun Shaozong strode to the steps, turned back and looked around the audience condescendingly, and the increasingly strong sense of oppression made the breathing sound a little weaker.
Liu Quan, who was kneeling at the front, naturally suffered a lot of impact, so that he began to think about whether he should speak more tactfully when the second master asked later.
However, Sun Shaozong didn't mean to ask at all, and after he looked around the whole scene, he gave Zhang Cheng a look to follow him.
Jang Cheng immediately held a letter in front of Cho Joong Ki with both hands.
Zhao Zhongji looked at Sun Shaozong's face, carefully opened the envelope, carefully studied the contents, and then his complexion changed suddenly, and he subconsciously looked at Sun Shaozong.
"Read."
Sun Shaozong commanded lightly.
Zhao Zhongji hurriedly held his hands in his hands, and read in a low voice: "The marching department, the official department, and the fifty percent soldiers and horses...... There are Wang Yuanfang, He Jun, and Liu Quan...... Innocent background, proficient in guns and sticks, and coarse and ...... Therefore, please ...... Promotion, camping, etc., ......"
After reading it, he saw Liu Quan's eyes wide, obviously not understanding again, so he scolded: "Stupid! The second master is going to promote you to be an official, so don't hurry up and thank the second master! β
"Do...... Official? β
Liu Quan is still in a dream, what he is thinking about now is the position of the second housekeeper in the house, how can the old hen suddenly become a duck?
"The patrol battalion is being promoted."
Sun Shaozong said indifferently at this time: "Uncle Feng personally recommended it, and the official should be able to send it down before the year - originally I wanted to wait for the body to find out and tell you, who knows that you can't even wait for these few days." β
In fact, Sun Shaozong originally just planned to get him an official body from the ninth grade, or not into the stream, but now that he wants to do it once and for all, he naturally wants to raise the chips a little, so that it can be seen that the Sun family is not at all.
This time, Liu Quan finally woke up from a big dream, and couldn't help but climb forward two steps with joy, and grabbed the ground with his head: "Thank you for the second master, thank you for the second master!" β
And the many servants behind him were also in an uproar and envious.
Although the current ordinary military positions are far less expensive than civil officials, from a mere servant to an eight-rank military attachΓ©, it can also be called a step to the sky!
The most intense reaction in the heart was naturally Wang Jin, he raised his head suddenly and opened his mouth wide, a question reached his throat, and he held back after seeing Sun Shaozong, but the unconvinced and resentful emotion was beyond words.
However, Zhao Joong Ki seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Liu Quan's gaze, instead of envy, he showed disdain.
But he said that after Liu Quan was grateful again and again, Sun Shaozong said again: "If you are paid, my Sun family will never deduct anything; But the penalty will not be less than half a point. β
Liu Quan still didn't hear the implicit meaning of the words, and hurriedly kowtowed again: "The little one knows that he is wrong, and he will not dare to do anything with others in the future!" In the future, the second master will let the small one go east, and the small one will never dare to ......."
"Alright."
Expressing loyalty, Sun Shaozong said nonchalantly: "Originally, I fought on the basis of reason, and the uncle agreed to send you to the south, but I didn't think about it......
"That's it, it's also my Sun family's temple, I really can't accommodate your arrogance, now even if it's a good gathering and dispersing - Zhao Zhongji, give him the deed later, and he will not be allowed to step into this mansion for half a step in the future."
When Zhao Joong Ki respectfully responded, Sun Shaozong instructed again: "What is important for ushering in and sending is a group of harmony, what is the opposite of what is going to be in the nest all day?" Ming'er replaced the people, and sold the coolies for a few months before anything else. β
Wang Jin was shocked when he heard this, and was about to open his mouth to distinguish a few words, but Liu Quan next to him cried first: "Second master, second master!" The little one would rather not be an official, just ask the second master not to drive the little one away! The second master is gracious, the second master is gracious! β
Although he has been a little carried away recently, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by Sun Shaozong before, so he was naturally not a stupid master, so he didn't react for a while, but at this time he had already figured out his situation.
Even if he becomes an official of the imperial court, his Liu Quan's roots are still in the Sun family!
Especially in this patrol camp, the power of the Sun family is already intertwined, and now it has just been 'freed from the past suspicions' with the Wei family, if the Sun family goes to work as an abandoned slave, it will inevitably be squeezed out a lot.
At that time, don't say anything about the future, if you don't make trouble, you may not even be able to save your life!
However, how could Sun Shaozong pay attention to his cries?
After explaining the matter clearly, he ignored it and went back to the backyard.
