――――――――――――――――――――――――
As soon as Yang Zhi's debt collection order came out, not only Xu Wenhan broke out in a cold sweat, but even many internal guards who were not good men and women couldn't help but gasp. As the saying goes, the world is like a new chess game, and An Guihou was once prominent for a while, but in less than half a month, he was defeated to the end. Now that his son is dead, Lao Tzu is also crazy, and they all say that killing people is not enough, what do you want to do with him?
Knocking people to the ground and stepping on one foot doesn't count, and they also pour salt into people's wounds. This debt collection order is not only ruthless, but also poisonous: I originally claimed 1 million taels, and the emperor only asked you to give one-tenth, which is already extraordinarily gracious. That's what the emperor judged, what can I do? Ask someone to carry the incense case for the holy decree, and you have to hold it back in your stomach even if you want to go crazy. I'm calling it a debt collector! Do you dare to give? Is it really against you?
The guards of the Yang Mansion already had considerable immunity to Yang Zhi's shamelessness, and soon reached a consensus on whether to carry out this vicious instruction: except for a few people left behind, everyone else went. As soon as I came to see the excitement, there were two hundred taels of silver to take, so it would be a pity if the opportunity to work part-time to earn a high salary was wasted. Second, I really can't rest assured, if something really happens, it's not easy to deal with the emperor.
The bounty of two hundred taels of silver per person will not be missing Ah Fu if there is no one. He was entrusted by Yang Zhi with the important task of accounting, and he was very emotional. A group of guards, under the leadership of Ah Fu, carried the incense case to worship the holy decree and went to the Anguihou Mansion to kill. With such an open flame, it is natural that all eyes will be on it. Many passers-by along the street asked the reason, and they spontaneously joined the ranks of the account collection team with great interest. Its momentum is huge, and it is comparable to the day when Yang Zhi went to the Hou Mansion to mourn.
As the saying goes, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, An Guihou's father and son are notorious on weekdays, and most of the people who are bullied by them dare not speak out. It's rare to meet a ruthless person like Yang Zhi who comes out and tries to fix him, how can it not make people applaud?
The feelings of the people in the Anguihou Mansion when they hear Yang Zhi's name now are really not something that can be described by a hateful word. Hate to hate, fear to fear. The little marquis just inadvertently bumped into his wife and laughed a few words, not only did he lose his life, but he was also made into a rebellion by that guy. This time, he brought all the incense cases for the holy decree, and he wanted to find a "big disrespect" to sue you, isn't it like playing? Not only did they dare not close the door. I don't even have the courage to shout a scold.
The little marquis is dead, the old marquis is crazy, and the two little sons are so scared that the six gods have no owner, and now they are ordered to come to the door to ask for debts, and An Guihou's family can be said to have a house leak that happened to rain overnight. Mrs. Hou's usual image of a wealthy and compelling noblewoman is gone. Sitting at the gate of the Hou Mansion like a shrew in the market, he grabbed the sky and the ground, and put on a rogue posture of "asking for money and life".
Ah Fu came out after being fed by Yang Zhi Lingfande, and this kind of small scene was obviously difficult for him: "My young master said, if you can't get together the money, it's okay to discount the valuable things of the Hou Mansion." ”
The crowd of onlookers all roared, and immediately a dozen or so do-gooders claimed to be the shopkeepers and men of the pawnshop, and volunteered to stand up and rub their hands, ready to enter the house at any time to carry out the voluntary appraisal work.
The scene was full of people, and the uproar became a pot of porridge. Just when the Hou Mansion was about to be completely lost, the two brothers of An Guihou, Li Zhongmin, the Marquis of Anxiang, and Li Ruosong, the Marquis of Anxiang, rushed to hear the news.
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads. It is true that the emperor ordered reparations. They simply brought all the decrees. Besides, if you are beaten to death by hundreds of people and then rush into the Hou Mansion and loot it, I am afraid that when the time comes, you will not be able to find the grave even if you want to cry!
No matter how wealthy a wealthy family is, it is impossible to have 100,000 taels of silver in the house to spend it at any time. The Li brothers decisively ordered someone to pull Mrs. An Guihou into Sapo, and had to swallow their anger and have an urgent consultation with Ah Fu, the chief representative who was ordered to collect debts.
Helplessly, the loyal Ah Fu is very principled, and as soon as the two of them spoke, they were almost choked up: "My young master said, he is not the kind of person who resists and disobeys the order, and today he can't miss a penny of 100,000 taels of silver." I'm sorry, two marquis. I'm afraid this matter is not negotiable. ”
The people around Ah Fu heard it clearly, laughing and making noise again.
The Li brothers were so angry that they almost bit their lips and bled blood: Who doesn't want the silver of Baihuahua? In this way, can he not obey the holy decree of the stone and knock the bamboo in the well? Besides, we didn't say that we would resist and disobey. But at this time, you have to ask us to "comply"!
In desperation, the Li brothers had to be embarrassed and promised to compensate in full. While asking the iron-faced and selfless Ah Fu for a few hours, he sent his cronies and subordinates to hurry up and try all means to raise silver taels.
Ah Fu has unknowingly been upgraded to "Brother Fu" in the mouths of everyone. It has never been so majestic as it is today since it was beaten. Surrounded by a group of internal guards, the chair that the man who had miraculously moved the good deeds found sat down in front of the Hou Mansion, wishing that the Li brothers' silver would be collected for as long as possible.
The Li family and three marquis are known as rich and noble for generations, and they are not in vain. Only half an hour later, the 100,000 taels of silver were all gathered. Except for the Li brothers, who were mourning and secretly gritted their teeth, the rest of the people were all happy. The crowd of onlookers then dispersed.
After more than two hours, the vigorous debt collection action was finally declared a successful end, and Ah Fu handed over 100,000 taels of silver bills to Yang Zhi. Yang Zhi thought that this money was far easier than his father's cheeky collection of entrance fees, and on a whim, he announced on the spot that a cat and a dog would have a share, and those who did not participate in the debt collection would also be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver each, and the Yang Mansion suddenly thundered with joy.
Xu Wenhan has no home and no room to worry about, and has been chatting with Yang Zhipin in the Yang Mansion. Shen Yu was flustered by Yang Zhi today, and took advantage of the gap to plead: "Uncle, why is Xianggong a little moody today? Xiaomei always feels that she is as noisy as Fang Cai, and it is inevitable that she will have an inextricable grudge with others. In the future, I will ask my uncle to persuade my father-in-law more. ”
"It's okay, it's okay!" Xu Wenhan shook his hand and smiled: "The third brother acts in his own way, and the younger brother and sister don't need to worry too much. The younger siblings and the third brother still need to spend a lifetime together, and some words are much more effective than what I said. ”
The topics involved in Shen Yu are too mysterious, and Xu Wenhan can only deal with prevarication.
Yang Zhi was angry and heavy, in fact, he hated iron but not steel. The fierce pursuit of An Guihou to ask for compensation is not entirely out of a black hand: while the emperor has the intention to use Yang Zhi's hand to suppress the foreign relatives group, he also gives a solemn warning to the increasingly powerful military group, and can also kill chickens and monkeys to show a group of imperial relatives and magnates.
Although Yang Zhi has won prestige and fame, and has also won the absolute favor of the radical Wenchen and the military clique, he does not have the power that can be seen and touched, and he has offended his relatives and the old warrior clan Haoqiang group behind him to death. If you don't clung to the emperor's thighs and take this opportunity to make a ruthless move, it will never be possible to gain a firm foothold in Chang'an.
The emperor and Yang Zhi each had their own needs, and half-concealed and half-stuffed a knife into his hand. Such two ruthless people tacitly got together, didn't they hit it off?
