Chapter 163: The Carriage
Yun Luan turned his head to look at Steward Yun: "Have you all arrived?" ”
Steward Yun nodded: "Miss, all of them are here." ”
Yun Luan's body hurt badly, but she gritted her teeth and endured it all the time. She pursed the corners of her lips, leaned back against the Taishi chair to feel a little more comfortable, and her eyes stared at those people, one by one. Those slaves standing at the bottom had never seen the fourth lady so awe-inspiring, and they couldn't help but feel a little more apprehensive. Those clear eyes, when they swept over them, lowered their eyes with a little weakness, and almost didn't dare to look at Yun Luan. Yun Luan pretended not to know, and the cold voice resounded faintly all around. "You've probably heard that someone just stole something from the house and ran away. These people who have stolen and escaped, I will have them arrested, sent to the government office, and handed over to the county government to judge and judge their guilt. According to the law of the Southern Prince, all the slaves who committed the following crimes, stole the master's belongings and escaped, as long as they were sent to the government, most of them did not return. ”
As soon as these words fell, everyone was suddenly shocked. Many of them were glad that they didn't run, otherwise they would have ended up the same as those people. The slaves who escaped thought that there was no man in the general's mansion to live in the mansion, and the general's wife fell into a coma, so they had the audacity to do such stupid things, but they didn't know that today's fourth lady, her methods are more ruthless than that of Mrs. Zhi. This coercion made everyone breathless. Among them is a Zhao mother-in-law, among the absconding slaves this time, including her nephew. At first, she encouraged her nephew to escape. She had planned to sneak into the yard of the lady and steal something of value before leaving, but before she could steal it, the butler asked all the servants to gather in the front yard. As soon as she thought that her nephew was about to suffer a catastrophe, she couldn't help but tremble her voice and began to question Yun Luan: "Fourth Miss, we have always been dedicated and conscientious in serving our masters in the General's Mansion. The general and the eldest prince are gone, we only feel that the sky is falling, we are no better than the masters, there are old and young, we have to think about our families. ”
"So some of them have done something wrong, and if you catch them and punish them a little, how can they escort them to the government? Isn't that killing them? Please also Miss Four, if you have a lot of adults, just spare them this time. Next time, they will definitely not dare to ......" Yun Luan's gaze fell on Mrs. Zhao's body with relish. She looked at the face of this old minion, and suddenly remembered an old incident in her previous life, when Yin Bailian was brought into the general's mansion by her, and the slave that Yin Bailian secretly bought was this Zhao Pozi. It was this Mrs. Zhao who led the officers and soldiers to open the door of the study, obeyed Yin Bailian's instructions, and personally found the letter of treason against the enemy from the study. Although in this life, because of the change of things, Yin Bailian has no chance to buy Mrs. Zhao, but this old slave is bad from the root. Yun Luan's eyes narrowed slightly, I'm afraid that among the absconding slaves, there are people related to her, right? That's why she was so bold and dared to challenge her authority...... As soon as Yun Luan raised his hand, he smashed the tea cup in his hand at Mrs. Zhao fiercely: "There are no rules, the following stupid things." Cloud Butler, Palm Mouth...... Take her deed of sale and hand her over to human teeth. ”
She didn't find any reason, and directly convicted this evil slave, and she had nothing to say about such a slave who eats inside and out. Since this person is in a hurry to jump out, she might as well kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey and stand up for it...... The tea cup fell on Mrs. Zhao, who was smashed and screamed, and when she heard that Yun Luan was going to sell her, her eyes were full of fear. She didn't care about being embarrassed, and hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Fourth Miss, stop your anger, old slave...... The old slave didn't commit any of the following crimes, the old slave was wronged......" Steward Yun stepped forward directly, raised his hand and gave her a slap. "Bastard, Miss is now the lord of Taiping County personally appointed by His Majesty, and it is really disrespectful for you to call Miss Fourth. Come on, slap your mouth twenty, and set an example...... Then sell her to the human tooth...... "The two strong mothers-in-law, when they responded, quickly plugged Zhao's mother-in-law's mouth with a ball of cloth and dragged her down. For a time, everyone was in danger, and when those slaves saw this scene, their faces turned white. They stood there trembling, lest one of the fourth young ladies would be displeased, so they would reprimand them with a rod and sell them to people. Yun Luan's face was calm, and he quietly looked at the panicked slaves below. The majesty has been established, and now is the time to show grace. "Each of you went to the General's Mansion and signed a contract. Don't think that if my father and my eldest brother are gone, and my mother is sick, the General's Mansion will collapse and cease to exist. I came out of the palace, and His Majesty had just canonized me as the Lord of Taiping County...... My father's and eldest brother's edicts will be issued later. ”
"My mother is still a lady of the First Order...... As long as there is a Yun family child in the General's Mansion, our General's Mansion will not fall. Nowadays, the general's mansion needs loyal servants who can advance and retreat together without any dissent, not those half-hearted villains who are always thinking about how to sell their lords for glory and harbor evil intentions...... "Don't think that I, the county lord, am not close to people...... Now, I give you a chance to make your choice. ”
Those slaves looked at Yun Luan with surprise on their faces, not quite understanding what the fourth lady was going to do, let them choose freely? What does that mean? Yun Luan held the Taishi chair and slowly stood up: "Now the General's Mansion, the wind and rain are shaking, and your thoughts are floating, which is also human nature. Instead of making a fuss and ending up unhappy, it is better to pick up all the words today......" "If you want to leave the General's Mansion, I won't stop you." I will have the steward give you the contract, and give each of you twenty taels of silver. The right should be compensation, and you have done your best in the General's Mansion over the years......" "Of course, if someone is unwilling to leave and is willing to advance and retreat with the General's Mansion, the housekeeper will give you fifty taels of silver as compensation. The contract or something, for the time being, we still have the General's Mansion to accept it, and when you want to leave one day, the General's Mansion will not be forced to stay. When the time comes, there will be a hundred taels of silver to compensate. ”
"As long as you work faithfully and are dedicated to the General's Mansion, the General's Mansion will naturally not treat those loyal servants badly. On the contrary, if you choose to stay in the General's Mansion, but still do things outside the food, if you are found by me, you will be killed with a cane, and you will not be merciful. Next. You choose for yourselves, whether you go or stay, you can gather and disperse. ”
