Chapter 424: The Last Stand (1)
Huang Jin's cadre was beaten very seriously, Concubine Jiang, who has always been generous to others, also dealt a heavy hand this time, and even the twenty vigilant military supervisors, including the twenty vigilant military supervisors, were beaten mixed with blood, and the injuries were not light. People still have to kneel there to plead guilty, the situation is miserable, even if these people are full of martial arts, their faces are still pale in pain, and their bodies tremble.
Only Huang Jin knelt there, his back straight, still like a javelin, his teeth clenched. In the cold autumn weather, he could still see beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.
"Father-in-law Huang, looking at you like this, it seems that you are a little unconvinced?"
"In order to maintain the Taoist system and etiquette, the slave maid broke the rules and laws of the palace, and the mother punished the slave and maid, which is a matter of course, and the slave and maid dare not have half a word of complaint, nor dare to disobey."
"So, you're not convinced? But it doesn't matter, it's your business to accept it or not, and it can't change the facts, forget it, let them go. At the moment, when people are employed, these twenty people are used to guard the palace wall, which is more useful than kneeling here, Niangniang's side, I will explain. ”
The old eunuch smiled, "It's still Yang Yizheng, benevolence and righteousness, this matter can be regarded as their creation, otherwise, they will be cut off directly, and it will only be a matter of one sentence." A few of you, kowtow to Yang Yizheng, thank you for not killing. ”
Huang Jin did not have any resistance, but piled up the gold mountain and poured the jade pillar, and kowtowed three times. After kowtowing, he didn't say much, but staggered over to move things, and the old eunuch shook his head and said: "It's such a donkey, Yang Yi is not the same as him, and he is destined to not eat good things." ”
"It's nothing, everyone has their own ambitions, don't you have to force it. Thank you for helping with the move, and I'll have a drink later. ”
When all the belongings were moved, it was already evening, and the front yard held a ceremony for the fallen soldiers, and Tao Zhongwen personally came forward to start the practice. Now is a special period, many things cannot be paid attention to, and the dead bodies are mixed together and buried in a centralized manner, which is no better than mass graves. Therefore, these ceremonies can only maintain morale and gather people's hearts.
After all, Tao Zhongwen was born in this profession, and he is familiar with it, so he will not make any mistakes, and his disciples have also come up with all their solutions. The sound of the magic weapon, the foot-long flame, like a tamed snake, turned in the hands of the Taoist priest, and the scene was very lively.
After all, this is a death in a winning battle, and the emotions of death and injury after defeat are different, as long as a little rendering, everyone can dilute the sadness, full of optimism that this battle will be won, and morale has not been affected.
It is said that Yang Chengzu should have come forward on such an occasion, but these things happened in his family, and the Miao family and Tie Coral needed to be comforted, so they couldn't leave no matter what. Before the move was completely over, some women in the backyard came to visit one after another, both to greet and show goodwill, and of course, there was a more important thing: sending money.
Those who are qualified to come and walk around are themselves characters who have a certain influence in the local area, and if they are at other times, they may not be in the mood to pay attention to a guard of honor. But now that people live in the palace, they have to maintain this relationship, and everyone's ears are very smart, Yang Chengzu and Mrs. Wang confronted each other, and the result was that the princess stood up and supported Yang Chengzu with a clear banner, and got her sister-in-law and several nieces to live in the cold palace.
At this time, if you don't know who to befriend and who to show favor, then you are not qualified to be the head of a large family. Liu's concubine and stepmother's identity were originally not looked down upon in the eyes of these ladies, but now, they want to befriend her as a woman with equal status.
In the final analysis, it is still status that determines everything, especially in this special situation, and those who control the force will speak louder.
Liu is a kind-hearted woman, her background is not high, she is used to seeing the cold and warm world, and she is also extra careful. Hearing that Yang Chengzu and the Wang clan had a conflict, she was very worried, and when she knew that she had killed dozens of people in one go, the whole person was almost paralyzed with fright.
She was always afraid that this matter would not pass like this, and she wondered if she would go over to apologize to Wang and talk about it. It was Yang Chengzu who pressed her so hard that he didn't let her move.
Now that so many ladies have come over, they are giving gifts and congratulating and saying congratulations, as if they don't know that dozens of lives have just been solved in this courtyard, and she doesn't know what to do. Fortunately, there are immortals on the side to help her deal with it, and with her Oiran means, it is not difficult to receive these noble ladies, and everyone is flattering on the surface.
A generous gift was handed over, and he also left his name, which does not mean that there is any alliance, the left and right are just a face, and I don't know when I will be able to use it in the future.
Yang Chengzu has actually collected a lot of money in the front yard, and these people are also a little particular about sending money, not to say that the bereavement is burned and buried, that is, to send condolences to the front-line soldiers, anyway, the silver is in your hands, how to arrange it, isn't it up to you?
Not all of them thought about destroying something or taking something from him, but some of them had a big business, and they thought that if they fought the rebels a day earlier, they would be able to reduce their losses a day earlier.
They sent money just so that Yang Chengzu could decisively send troops for the sake of money, and promised that as long as the rebellious army was defeated, he would be willing to pay more money. They didn't know much about the art of war, and they thought that the rebels had already lost the battle and would definitely win if they went out again, so they also urged them to go into battle.
But no matter what their starting point is, seeing this scene, smart people know how to shut up and seize the time to mend the relationship. Yang Chengzu naturally stayed with Miao and Tie Coral this night. He took the two women in his arms, stroked them gently, and asked softly, "How is it, does it still hurt?" ”
"It doesn't hurt anymore, when I am touched by my husband like this, I don't feel pain at all. No matter how seriously injured you are, if you touch it like this, everything will be healed. As he spoke, Iron Coral arched again into Yang Chengzu's arms, like a tired cat.
"Shameless little girl, if you let others hear it, you should laugh to death." Yang Chengzu patted her lightly on the back, and said to Miao: "Aunt Xiu, your matter is completely solved this time, with the palace coming forward, there is nothing to do." Whoever makes a fuss about this matter in the future will be ugly. In fact, there is a palace or not, you are the same Xiugu in my heart, there is no difference. However, we have to admit this favor, and we must repay the debt we owe. ”
"Also? How can you pay it back? ”
"Naturally, it's a hard time, it's nothing more than a day, you don't think the battle is over, the rebels have suffered a lot, they must have to rest, but the battle is far from over, you wait, it won't be long before there will be a lot of excitement." When the time comes, I will have to throw this life out to repay the princess for her kindness. ”
