Chapter 131: King Yue Gives Marriage
As soon as the fat old man heard that he had committed the crime of killing his head, he was frightened, and he cried out "wow", and sweat beaded on his bald head.
He cried and said, "My lord, what I did was allowed before, right, why is it illegal now?" Please be gracious! ”
Fan Li said: "It was allowed before, but now it is not possible, and now it is illegal." When the king returned to his homeland, he was about to issue several decrees, one of which was that the old man could not marry a little girl. ”
The pavilion chief said: "Great grace, the villain is wronged. The villain is not a lawbreaker. Ask for your kindness. ”
Fan Li said: "What can I do about this?" You hit the tip of the sword yourself. The decree is given by the king, and the only one who can save your life is the king. Otherwise, I think you are also pitiful, I will take you to beg the king, the king promised to spare you, count your fate, if the king does not agree, you will wait to cut off your head. ”
The pavilion chief hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you, sir, please take the villain to beg the king!" ”
Fan Li sighed and said, "Okay, who told me to be soft-hearted?" I will take you to the king. ”
The group left Ji Yun's house and came to King Yue's tent in a short time. Fan Li said: "Pavilion Master, let me go and ask if the king is willing to see you." ”
The pavilion chief said, "Please say good things about the little ones." ”
Fan Li, entered the tent and met King Yue. King Yue said, "Young uncle, how are things going?" ”
Fan Li reported on the trial of the case, and King Yue smiled dumbly: "Young uncle, you are really good, such an arrogant bad old man, I will subdue you in one fell swoop." What are you going to do with him? ”
Fan Li said: "I just scare and scare him, I can't kill him because of this." But this good man is made by you, the king. ”
King Yue said, "I understand what you mean. You've got a heart. ”
Fan Li said: "But you can't just let him go in this matter, you should let him bleed." ”
King Yue said, "I know how to do it." Let him in. ”
Fan Li walked out of the tent and said to the pavilion chief: "I have pleaded for you for a long time, and the king finally agreed to see you." If you are sincere, the king may be able to spare you from death. ”
The pavilion chief said, "Yes, yes! I listen to the king in everything. ”
Fan Li said: "Okay, let's go in." ”
Fan Li walked into the big tent with the pavilion chief. Elder Ting knelt down from afar, walked on his knees, knelt down in front of King Yue, and cried and said, "The king spares his life, the villain did not deliberately break the law. Ask the king to give the little one a way to live. ”
King Yue said: "The general has already told the widow about your situation, and you are the first civilian case tried by the widow. According to the law, you have broken several laws, and the sin is too great to be killed. ”
The pavilion chief said, "The king spares his life, and the villain worships the king from generation to generation." ”
King Yue sighed. He said, "The widow has just returned to China, and it is unlucky to kill people at this time, so the widow will exempt you from the death penalty." ”
The pavilion chief hurriedly kowtowed, thank you, thank you, thank you! ”
King Yue said, "It's okay not to kill you, but you have to admit punishment." ”
The pavilion chief said: "As long as the king does not die around the villain, I will accept any kind of punishment." ”
King Yue said, "Good! Let me ask you, does the marriage contract with Meng Ji still count? ”
The pavilion chief said, "It doesn't count, it doesn't count." ”
King Yue said, "Then what should I do if Ji Yun owes you a debt?" ”
The pavilion chief said, "Forget it." He tossed the contract aside.
King Yue said, "This is to make amends for your sins." I'm going to punish you. ”
The pavilion chief said, "The villain admits punishment. ”
King Yue said, "How many people are there in your family, including the miscellaneous workers in the nursing home?" ”
The pavilion chief said, "There are thirty-five people in total. ”
King Yue said: "From now on, there are still six months left until next year's wheat harvest, and you are willing to keep enough food for these thirty-five people, and the rest of the grain will be distributed to the people under your care according to the capita?" ”
The pavilion chief was sweating on his head, which hurt more than cutting his flesh! But it's much better than killing the head. So I cried again.
Fan Li said: "Don't thank you yet! ”
The pavilion chief wept and said, "Thank you for the king's grace! ”
King Yue said: "Okay, you are still the pavilion chief, and you will be kind to the people in the future." Go ahead and do it. ”
The pavilion chief kowtowed and withdrew from the big tent, and then two soldiers followed him and carried out the punishment.
In the big tent. Ji Yun took his wife and daughter Meng Ji to kneel in front of King Yue, and kowtowed repeatedly: "Thank you to the king for saving my whole family." ”
King Yue said softly, "Please get up and speak." "I personally got up and helped up a family of three. He said, "Ji Yun, your son died for the country. Your family should be beneficial, but you are allowed to suffer such a sin, and the widow is sorry for you. ”
Ji Yun cried loudly excitedly: "King, it is right for my father and son to fight for the country, with a king like you, the villain is willing to die ten thousand times." Crying and about to kneel down and kowtow, King Yue hurriedly pulled him.
King Yue looked at Meng Ji and said, "Meng Ji is fifteen years old and doesn't have a mother-in-law yet, Ji Yun, you should find a mother-in-law for your daughter." ”
Meng Ji blushed and lowered her head. Ji Yun said: "Yes, yes! ”
King Yue said, "Is Jiang He here?" ”
Jiang He stepped forward to salute and said, "My subordinates are here." ”
King Yue said, "Jiang He, how old are you this year?" ”
Jiang He said: "I am twenty years old this year. ”
King Yue said: "Are you married?" ”
Jiang He said: "I haven't married yet. ”
King Yue turned to Meng Ji: "Girl, what do you think of this young man?" ”
Meng Ji's face turned even redder, and she couldn't speak shyly. In fact, she had already noticed Jiang He. This young man has a fair face, bright eyes, a slender figure, and a straight waist, not a beautiful man, but he is shrewd and capable, giving people a feeling of being able to rely on.
King Yue smiled: "Meng Ji is shy and doesn't speak, I'll treat you as if you like him" and turned to Jiang He and said, "What do you think of Meng Ji?" Do you like it? ”
Jiang He's face also turned red, and he bowed down to salute: "Back to the king, Jiang He thinks that Miss Meng Ji is very good-looking." ”
King Yue laughed happily, turned his face to Hou Yayu and Fan Li, and said, "You can tell the rest of the words." ”
Yayu smiled and said, "What the king means is that I will be a matchmaker and let these two people get married." ”
Fan Li said: "The woman's matchmaker is the queen, and the man's matchmaker is me." ”
Yayu said: "Meng Ji, are you willing to marry Jiang He as your wife?" ”
This is really joy falling from the sky, Meng Ji panicked, her face was like a big red cloth, and she said like a mosquito: "I am willing!" ”
Yayu said, "Jiang He, are you willing to marry Meng Ji?" ”
An unexpected good thing, smashed Jiang He's head and dizzy. Hurriedly said, "Jiang He is willing." ”
Fan Li said to Ji Yun and his wife: "Are you willing? ”
The king gives marriage, the queen and the general are the matchmakers, how can there be such a marriage in the world! Jiang Yun and his wife hurriedly knelt down. "Thank you, King! Thank you, Queen! Thank you, General! The king's marriage is a great honor for our family, and we are willing! ”
King Yue laughed happily: "Jiang He, don't you kowtow to your father-in-law and mother-in-law soon." ”
Jiang He knelt down and kowtowed: "I've seen my father-in-law and mother-in-law!" Jiang He said goodbye. ”
