Wang An and Shi Duan stood under a big tree in Wangjiazhuang, carefully watching several old soldiers training the 100 Zhuang Ding, Wang An asked, "What do you think, sir?" Can you deal with bandits? ”

Shi Duan shook his head: "They haven't seen blood, they only have courage and no murderous aura, and they are afraid that they will flee for their lives in the event of life and death." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Killing a few more people will be murderous," Wang An said, "The Kong family and the Li family have already promised to support me financially and materially, and I plan to recruit another 200 people among the displaced people." ”

"Will this be overstepping?"

"Nanjun is a combination of military and government, and I, the head of the Yang, can command the county soldiers, and now I just lack the right to recruit soldiers." Wang An smiled, "I plan to go to Jiangling to meet the new Taishou, and he will agree." "I don't want your money, I don't want your people, I can help you solve the homeless people, where can I find this kind of good thing.

"This is the husband who asked the concubine to hand it over to the head of the yang." Zheng put a stack of documents on Wang An's case.

Wang An asked, "What is this?" ”

"This is the information of the five wealthy families in Dangyang," Zheng replied.

"Isn't your husband going down the mountain to help me?"

The husband of the concubine said that he was used to being at ease and could not be restrained. When Yang Chang's kindness is not blessed, if Yang Chang needs help, he can tell the concubine, and the concubine will tell her husband. "If you don't want to be Yang, it's better to find Miss Duan than to find you. Wang An then remembered that he hadn't seen Miss Duan for a few months.

"What is Lang Jun looking at, so serious?" The big girl walked in through the door. Wang An put down the materials in his hand and asked, "I've seen my mother, has my mother ever agreed?" ”

The eldest girl came over and sat beside Wang An: "My mother promised to send someone to Shangdang County to contact the Feng family and ask them to send elders to discuss the marriage, but because of my father's case, the wedding could only be carried out quietly. ”

Wang An stretched out his hand and grabbed the eldest girl's hand and said, "I have wronged you." ”

The eldest girl didn't speak, and after a while, she said, "My mother asked you to take a few concubines first, thinking that the Wang family would stay behind." ”

Wang An patted the eldest girl's hand: "The back house is your territory, you decide." ”

"The concubine body has been arranged, and from tomorrow night, she will take turns to sleep."

"And what about tonight?"

The eldest girl didn't answer, picked up the information that Wang An put on the table and looked at it: "This is the information provided by the Zheng family's men?" ”

Wang An nodded: "This is the five wealthy families of Dangyang, Chu, Zhao, Ou, Li, and Chang. I took a closer look, and only the Zhao family was still clean. However, these are superficial, and the specific situation needs to be investigated on the spot. Especially the Chu family," Wang An picked up a piece of paper and flicked it, "The Chu family, the head of the five families, started as a businessman, and became the head of Dangyang in just twenty or thirty years. I suspect that the Chu family is a bandit who specializes in business. ”

The eldest girl put away the information: "It's late, rest early, and sleep by the concubine tonight." ”

A richly decorated living room was brightly lit, with a screen facing the doorway, behind which sat five elderly men. The old man sitting at the top spoke first: "The old man sent someone to Xinye County to inquire a few days ago, and the new Dangyang Chang has been staying in Xinye County for ten days, and it is said that he is busy taking concubines. I invite you to come here today to discuss how to deal with this matter. "Look at me, people, I look at you, and no one will open their mouths. The old man was not very happy, and pointed to the first one on his right hand and said, "Zhao family master, you speak first." ”

The head of the Zhao family hummed a few times: "This person was recommended by Xiao Taishou, but the person was still on the way, Xiao Taishou was removed from his official position by the emperor's order, and he was inevitably uneasy in his heart, and it is understandable to stay in Xinye to calm down, and by the way, you can also consult with the Marquis of Xindu." ”

The old man looked at the next seat of the Zhao family master: "District family master, it's your turn." ”

The head of the district family stroked his beard: "Since he wants to take a concubine, we can send someone to congratulate him, or urge him to come to his post, isn't it a double sentence?" ”

The head of the Zhao family said to the old man: "The new Nanjun Taishou has arrived, the head of the Chu family, why don't we ask the Taishou to come forward and let him send a message to reprimand this person?" ”

The head of the Chu family vetoed: "Reprimand? Everyone has seen the official document of the imperial court, which does not say the specific date of his arrival, only stipulates that he will take office before February next year, and it is only November now, and there are still more than two months before February next year. ”

The head of the house who was second on the left hand said loudly: "Why should we be afraid of a stinky boy, he will come if he wants to, and if he doesn't want to come, he won't pull it." What can you do if you come, how many officials have changed in the past 20 years, and the whole Dangyang is not a few of us who have the final say? ”

The head of the Chu family looked at the other party with a calm face, and after the person stopped speaking, the head of the Chu family spoke: "The current head of the Yang family is no longer a director, all official affairs have been pushed to the next term, and some cases have also been sealed and no longer tried, Chang family master, there is a murder case in your house." You must know that the second brother, the new Yang Chang, committed suicide because of killing slaves. ”

The head of the Chang family shouted loudly: "That person died of illness by himself, and the government has closed the case." ”

"It's a pity that the rumors say that the head of the Chang family coveted this person's wife and deliberately killed him, if the county zun accepted this statement, the head of the Chang family, you are not good." The old man sitting next to the head of the Chang family said.

The head of the Chang family was very angry, and said to the old man: "Master Li, don't gloat, your family has forcibly occupied fertile land and forced people to die. Do you want me to give you all of them? Seeing that it was about to turn into a scandal exposing conference, the head of the Chu family hurriedly came out to speak: "We are here to discuss countermeasures, not to expose each other's ugliness." ”

The head of the Li family hurriedly said: "Let's give him a gift, ask for money for money, and ask for beautiful women for beautiful women." ”

"I know how to send money to beautiful women, vulgar." The Zhao family leader interrupted him.

The head of the Chu family pointed at the head of the Zhao family and said, "What do you say?" ”

The head of the Zhao family said: "Wang An is from a big family, will he lack money and beauties?" No, if the family wants to maintain its status, it must have a child to become an official, and if he comes out to be an official, he must have achievements, so we will help him make achievements. ”

The head of the district family said: "The Wang family is related to the empress dowager, and it is not easy to be promoted?" ”

The head of the Zhao family said: "What if you are related to the Empress Dowager, the Wang family is competing for the position of the Great Sima, but the brothers are not harmonious, not to mention these juniors?" The old man has also been to Chang'an, Wang An gave up Chang'an to be Yang, the picture is not small, we must be careful to deal with it, do not become a stepping stone for others. ”

The head of the Chu family couldn't help nodding after hearing this, and said to the head of the Zhao family: "The old man wants to ask the head of the Zhao family to go to Xinye to welcome the new head of the Yang on behalf of the people of the county, are you willing?" ”

The head of the Zhao family agreed.
