Chapter 770: Lingering
Xie Zun's side had a very difficult time, although the Xie family had strong financial resources, so they would not really go bankrupt because of rescuing their son. However, the main industry of the rich people in this era is still in real estate such as fields and real estate, and a wealthy man with a lot of money may have limited funds for activities.
Although the Xie family has the benefits of sea trade and has a lot of cash in their hands, they have been hit again and again after experiencing things such as being a horse and holding a funeral, which has been quite sad.
Ningbo Prison is like a bottomless pit of gold absorption, no matter how much money is thrown into it, it can't be filled, from the clerk below to Yang Chengzu above, every level has to make money. At the same time, find someone to talk about it, dredge the joints, and find out the news, all of which are also to make silver. Now Xie Zun has begun to consider whether to sell some land or sell some rice savings for the sake of expenses.
In addition to economic problems, the pressure from the government also made the Xie family a little out of breath. Leng Feishuang's old White Lotus Sect, Nanjing's Jinyi Guard Yamen, and Yang Ji's guards, all of the forces were secretly staring at the Wuyi Xie family to ensure that no one could escape from the Changfang.
Of course, there are many adults in the Xie family, and they really want to escape, and it is impossible to destroy the group. But playing alone against a room can still be successful. In fact, the Xie family's room had sent out a few children, who wanted to be used as seeds and hide them first. If you really can't avoid it this time, with them, there is hope for the revival of this house. However, after these people left the city, it didn't take long for them to be targeted by several Jianghu people, and they soon disappeared into the sea of people.
On the Xie family's side, although he may not know the movements of the government, he can still feel the feeling of being targeted. Besides, the Xie family itself has a lot of high-tech nursing homes, and they may not be able to fight out, but telling the master that their family is being watched by the Jianghu people has this kind of professional skill.
In other rooms, some people began to come out and say some strange things, thinking that Xie Zun offended Yang Chengzu too ruthlessly, so he was made like this. The Xie family may consider changing the head of the family, and then they can talk. He likes his own rouge rice field, likes the cold and famous lady at home, likes the authentic handiwork of Mi Fu, these are not problems, give him whatever he likes, and then it will be safe......
In short, when the family is facing a crisis, there will always be fools who jump out, and Xie Zun is used to it. It's just that in the past, he had the ability to resolve the crisis, and afterwards he could use a silent slap to swell the faces of these idiots, only this time, he was really a little lacking in confidence.
In this kind of internal and external difficulties, he didn't take the news of Cao Xiaowan's suicide to heart at all, or rather, the attention of this rumor was no longer enough to attract his attention. He hadn't done it at all, did it make sense to splash this kind of dirty water, at this time, he didn't think that this kind of gossip would really have any substantial impact on him.
Cao Xiaowan left a suicide note before she died, believing that her body was polluted and she was not qualified to be buried. Request for incineration with fire and scattering of ashes into the sea. In accordance with her wishes, after the funeral, the coffin was burned with fire, and then the ashes were collected and loaded onto the ship to sail. Many talented scholars in Nanjing are still lamenting this flower-like beauty, which withers with the wind, and it is inevitable that there will be some whispers in this southeastern Confucian Xie Zun.
The Cao family's parents, brothers and sisters-in-law cried like tears, but they didn't curse or plead, they just kowtowed to everyone. This kind of wordless kowtow has inspired the enthusiasm of many people, and some people have begun to connect and want to do something.
On the big ship responsible for dumping the ashes, Yang Chengzu scattered the ashes for his younger sister as a brother. It's just that as soon as the ship left the shore, Cao Xiaowan, disguised as a servant, came to him and bowed down, "Engong, from today on, Xiaowan is a living dead, and it is grace to be able to eat a bowl of leftovers at Engong's house." Others don't dare to ask for extravagance, I just hope that Engong can not forget Xiaowan. ”
"Silly girl, what else is it called, let's call it husband. I can't give you a name, and I can't promise to give you more love, the only thing I can guarantee is that at home, no one dares to bully you. Yang Chengzu pulled Cao Xiaowan up, and the two hugged each other, "You have paid too much this time." ”
"For the sake of Engong, no matter how much I pay, I don't care."
Cao Xiaowan's identity is in the Yang family's house, and only Yang Chengzu's wives and concubines and the Liu family know, and no one else knows. I feel that this woman can give up the position of the imperial concubine first, and then even the whole family has given up, since the Liu family has been reduced, she is highly regarded by three points, although she has no name, but the treatment is better than that of ordinary concubines.
Director Cao and others didn't know that their daughter faked her death, but they only thought that she was really tainted by Xie Zun at the beginning. Therefore, he was relieved why Yang Chengzu refused to give his daughter a name, but felt a little guilty, and only aimed his anger at the Xie family.
The report on this matter was sent to the direction of Beijing at the fastest speed through the military post system of Jinyiwei. As far as the layout of the Xie family is concerned, it has entered the closing stage at this point, or there is only so much Yang Chengzu can do.
For a famous family that has been around for hundreds of years, as well as a prominent family that is very influential in the officialdom and literary circles, although Yang Chengzu has the banner of the king's order, he does not dare to act without authorization. It's not that he doesn't have this authority, but this permission comes from the trust of the Son of Heaven, and if he uses this permission casually, he will inevitably leave an impression such as being arrogant.
The more authority he has, the less he can be arbitrary, and he will be cautious, so that the emperor will not have any concern for himself.
As for the delay in the process, or the delay of military aircraft, he didn't care. The Xie family is a dead dog, and it is impossible to come and go all the time, which will lead to changes in the situation. To put it more clearly, the Xie family currently does not have a few cards available in their hands, and they have no capital if they want to turn over.
According to Yang Chengzu's thoughts, the news came and went, even if the Xie family's time in the capital was added to find someone to relieve their cheeks, one month would be enough to wait for the holy decree of the Xie family to behead the whole family. But without waiting for the Holy Decree on his side, an unexpected piece of information was sent to his desk from the news channel in Ningbo.
Leng Feishuang looked at the intelligence, and then looked at Yang Chengzu, "When will you go back to Ningbo or Hangzhou?" Sea King Xu Yang's movements are faster than we imagined, and his battle this time is so big, I'm afraid this battle will be very troublesome. He is not like the Black Shark Gang, the area of action is much larger than those sharks, Fujian, Zhejiang, Guangdong and several provinces, which can be used for him to come and go. This battle is about to decide the overall situation of the southeast to suppress the Japanese, and you must be in charge. ”
"Don't worry, Xu Yang's generation, no matter how many people, how many boats, or how many guns, it's just recklessness, I never took it to heart. Those who really interfere with our maritime trade and build big ships are not outside, but inside. There are pirates, they may be more honest, without pirates, they will really jump out and disgust people. Xu Yang came out, he came out well, if he hid in the nest, I wouldn't be able to move him. This time he came out to find his own death, and I sent him on his way. It seems that God still has mercy on the Xie family, and actually let him live a little longer, and ordered him to go down and prepare to set off. ”
