Chapter Twenty-Eight: Is Our Lao Ying Family Easy to Bully?
It is often said that good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. In fact, as long as it is done properly, good things can also go viral like rumors.
However, in one morning, the streets and alleys of Shuangzhou City were full of praise for heroes, and people no longer greeted each other with "Have you eaten", but asked "Did you know that something big happened yesterday"?
As for those dignitaries, no matter how stupid they are, they finally understand one thing - in His Majesty's mind, the future successor can only be the young palace master.
Thinking about it deeply, just through such a thing, not only established the positive reputation of the young palace master, but also shocked those who were ready to move in the Ying clan in one fell swoop.
If nothing else, in the next period of time, the life of the Ying family will not be too easy, at least those who occupy important positions must have something to say, otherwise, the day of Ying Jiqing and others is their tomorrow.
Resolute and neat, His Royal Highness has just passed the test of Bannu Mountain, and he has played such a wonderful cooperation game with His Majesty, which has made many officials who were optimistic about Ying Weixian before begin to re-examine their choices.
Of course, things are not perfect, and the matter about Ying Jiqing's concubine being taken to Bilian Garden made many people shake their heads.
Even though Ying Jiqing is guilty, he is also the hero's cousin in terms of seniority, and his concubine is the hero's uncle, forcibly occupying it, which is really unjustifiable and unseemly in ethics.
As a result, many officials appeared to impeach the hero for going against human morality, and His Majesty waved a pen and ordered the hero to return the person to his place of origin and fined him 20 boards.
The thumping board fell, and in the midst of the screams, the hero lay in the shade of the tree, opened his mouth and took the grapes and the white fingers of the family into his mouth.
Jia Qiao hurriedly pulled it back, blushed and peeked at the lady who was still angry, and when he saw that he was not found, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
The punishment of the 20th National Board was set by Jiang Qiuyun, but it was not the hero who was beaten, but Gao Wu.
Because it was the concubine he deliberately mentioned, as a house slave, he lured his master to make mistakes, and he really deserved to be beaten.
"Mother, that's what it means!" Listening to the wailing sound coming from outside the courtyard wall, the hero finally spoke unrelentingly, "Gao Wu has guarded the child for many years, although he is a little sleek, but his loyalty is true.
Besides, I didn't do it because of his advice. ”
"Why can't you do it, you have to make a fuss about women?"
Speaking of this, Jiang Qiuyun was angry.
She can understand the hero's thoughts of continuing to defile himself, but the name of lust is not good after all. Her son has always been clean and self-conscious, and he didn't even touch his personal maid, and he used to have a reputation as a silver devil to be wronged enough, and he finally had the opportunity to wash it, but this goods are endless, and he actually took the concubines of the elders to cut down, which is really annoying.
She was reluctant to beat her son, but fortunately, there was a clown-like Gao Wu who was fat and thin, which was just right to vent her anger.
"Mother, you should understand, that is, my son set up a target for others. Having existing charges naturally reduces the likelihood that they will create or frame other crimes. ”
"That's not going to work either!" Jiang Qiuyun said undoubtedly, "If you really want to use other people's wives and concubines to defile yourself, your mother can immediately find out seventeen or eighteen for you, such as Li Hexuan's wife, didn't you say it in public at the birthday banquet?" ”
The hero was speechless, so he had to raise his voice and said: "Gao Wu, Lao Tzu has done his best, if you endure it again, the twenty boards will end soon!" ”
"Your Highness Xie...... Care! The lowly position can still be endured. ”
Gao Wu replied quickly, so he quickly regretted it, because Jiang Qiuyun stood in front of the door of the hanging flowers, snorted coldly, and said: "It is worthy of being a well-trained tiger guard commander, and he can still be full of gas after receiving a dozen or so boards of genuine goods, so add ten more boards!" Did you all exert yourself a little bit and didn't eat? ”
"Whoa!"
As the palace attendant responded, the sound of the board immediately became dense and loud, and Gao Wu's screams became louder.
What else can a hero do? I could only mumble quietly: "I deserve it!" ”
"Mother, my father asked me to go to that Ganliang County to suppress bandits, what is the purpose, you can give me a breath!"
Hearing his son ask about business, Jiang Qiuyun turned around and sat down next to him.
"Why don't you ask your father?"
The hero pouted: "The child's ideas are contrary to him, and if he is not careful, he may talk back again." My grandfather who was angry just now said that he was sick, but I didn't dare to be angry with my father anymore. ”
"Then you can't bear to be angry with your mother?" Jiang Qiuyun glared.
"How could it be! You are the most child-loving person in the world, that is, because of you as a backer, your son dares to do anything outside. ”
After taking a grape from Jiaqiao's hand and feeding it to his mother, the hero smiled like a good student.
patting his mother's ass, he has always been from the heart, pure and natural, and not pretentious.
Jiang Qiuyun still eats his set, and he doesn't feel tired of eating it for more than ten years.
"You! I don't know when I'm going to really grow up. ”
Shaking her head with a smile, she said with a straight face: "Sending you to Ganliang County, the so-called suppression of bandits is just a name for you to make military merits, what you really have to do is to figure out the structure of the sugar industry there, as well as the strength of the local officials and wealthy businessmen." It's a good idea to leave a good name and lay the groundwork for our next steps. ”
"Sugar?" The hero is a little confused.
"Yes." Jiang Qiuyun nodded, "Ganliang County is the only place in our Shuangzhou that can grow sugarcane on a large scale. It is said that the sugar cane grown there is in excellent condition, and even in the three southern states, the local sugar industry is very prosperous.
However, Ganliang County was once a dependency of the Liang State, and the most prestigious time-honored sugar merchant in the area was still a member of the Liang royal family.
They have been operating in the local area for many years, and their forces are intertwined, and according to the night owls, the three largest bandits in the nearby mountains have close ties to them.
Every year, when the critical period of taxation comes, the bandits must go down the mountain to plunder, which leads to us holding a piece of blessed land in our hands, but we can't get a penny, and we have to pay for the military and appease the people every year.
On the other hand, the Liang royal family relied on the sugar trade to make a lot of money, the treasury was full, and the national strength increased greatly. ”
As he spoke, Jiang Qiuyun began to get angry again.
Anyway, in front of her son, she didn't need the shelf of the world, and slapped the handrail heavily, she gritted her teeth and said: "On our family's territory, using our people and goods to make money, but only fattening their own family, is simply a bandit!" Is it easy to bully when we are old Ying? ”
The corners of the hero's mouth twitched, and he didn't dare to say that Ganliang County was originally snatched by the Lao Ying family from the hands of Liang Guo. Because it doesn't do any good at all except for the effect of finding a beating.
What's more, it is obvious that my father and mother are going to use the knife against Liang Guo, and even the country is our Lao Ying's family when I turn around, what else is there to break in a small Ganliang County?
