Chapter 163: Apology
Surprise?
Gong Yichen was so angry, it was obvious that he had collected money by himself, but in the end, he actually said that it was a surprise for him? The scare is pretty much the same!
But no matter how angry he was, Gong Yichen's face also had a smile of relief: "Uncle Huang has a heart, since it has been burned, I don't need to pay tribute for the time being." ”
Gong Xiangling's face was ugly.
I can't wait to unload the person who caused the fire on the tribute ship.
If he doesn't have to pay tribute, then he won't be busy in vain.
Now is the critical time to use money for medicine, those boats of things are necessities, and they are still his share when they are sent to the capital, but if they don't have to pay tribute, they really can't get half a dime.
Thinking of this, Gong Xiangling's teeth were about to be crushed.
But when he raised his head, he looked bitter: "Your Majesty, no matter what you say, it is the will of the people in Jiangnan, if you don't accept it, it will inevitably chill the hearts of the people." ”
"Uncle Huang didn't say it back just now, that's your intention. Why, I saved money for Uncle Huang, but Uncle Huang is still not happy? ”
Gong Xiangling only felt that a mouthful of phlegm was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down, making it difficult for him to speak.
But my words have been said just now, and now I can't take them back.
He regretted the excuse he had made, but now he couldn't do anything about it.
If you want to pay tribute again, it will really be your own money.
"Thank you for your understanding." Gong Xiangling gritted his teeth and exited the door.
As soon as the door of the imperial study was closed, Gong Yichen's expression changed.
Gong Xiangling is stealing chickens and rice this time, but the losses of the people in Jiangnan are real.
Now that it is eventful, Gong Xiangling wants to win people's hearts, and he can't be willing to be left behind.
Gong Yichen pondered for a long time, and the tea in his hand was cold for a long time before he picked up the pen on the side of the desk.
The Jiangnan tribute ship caught fire, and in order to recuperate from the people's livelihood, it was exempted from paying tribute for three years.
Gong Xiangling, who got the news, smashed almost everything in the study.
Late autumn came in with her head down, thinking about the news she had just received, and she felt that her throat was stuck with paste, and she couldn't say anything.
"Gong Yichen is really hard wings."
Gong Xiangling stood in the middle of the study and said with a gloomy face.
Late autumn didn't speak, Gong Xiangling looked over and squinted: "But you did something wrong again?" ”
"Lord, the concubine is incompetent." Late autumn knelt directly on the ground, and before the words fell, Gong Xiangling picked up the paperweight and smashed it straight over.
Fortunately, he lost his head in anger, and the paperweight fell on the edge of late autumn.
Late autumn shivered, the paperweight was extremely hard, even so, it was still smashed to pieces, if it was smashed on herself, she really didn't dare to imagine.
"Say."
Gong Xiangling suppressed his voice, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked very terrifying.
"None of the six masters sent to assassinate survived." Late Autumn had just gotten the news that the gang had been missing for a long time, and it wasn't until two days ago that the men she sent to find their bodies in a mass grave.
Thinking of the words of his subordinates, Late Autumn's mouth moved and did not say anything more.
When those people were found, they were covered in bruises, obviously tortured, I am afraid that the fact that they assassinated Yu Wenhao was already known to him.
As soon as she thought of this result, Late Autumn felt a layer of cold sweat break out on her back.
"There is no life to ......" Gong Xiangling read these four words, and then looked at the late autumn sharply, "Waste, a group of waste!" ”
Late autumn trembled, she had been with Gong Xiangling for so long, knowing that he was ruthless, and he would definitely not be able to die if he fell into his hands.
Gong Xiangling looked at the late autumn and took a deep breath.
Now is the time to employ people, although the late autumn has suffered frequent losses recently, but the ability is undoubted, let alone the sincerity of oneself. He rubbed his temples: "Lord Liang will come to the mansion in the evening, you can arrange it." ”
Late autumn's face suddenly turned white.
The world only knows that she is Gong Xiangling's favorite concubine, but they don't know that she is a bargaining chip for Gong Xiangling's transaction.
On the surface, the scenery is private, but in private, it is the plaything of those big people.
Gong Xiangling was proud of the spring breeze before, and it was too late for people to stammer, she thought that the gloomy days were over, but she didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
She lowered her head, hid the humiliation and despair on her face, and took the order.
Maple Bridge.
Lin Jiujiu walked on the road, and the little guy behind him carried a large pile of medicinal herbs.
The climate in the south is humid, and there are more medicinal herbs than in the north. Many of them have never been seen before, and she has been cultivated by Hengyuan's notes in the past two days, and she can't put them down.
Recently, she also needs a lot of things to make health pills, and she has to try the effect herself before putting it into production.
Time waits for no one, she feels that her feet don't touch the ground, and she doesn't even have time to rest.
"Girl, there's a market ahead!" Fifteen was tiptoeing when he saw a crowd of people in front of him.
She didn't want Lin Jiujiu to go to a crowded place, and the incident of being separated at the Lantern Festival last time still made her feel palpitations, but Lin Jiujiu was full of interest.
This market is not the same as the Lantern Festival, and you might even find something good.
Thinking of this, she couldn't wait to walk forward.
Fifteen asked the little guy to carry the things back first, and then caught up with Lin Jiujiu.
In a place like Maple Bridge, it's the center and it's surrounded by villages.
The market is held twice a month at the beginning of the fifteenth month, and it is used to sell goods to the people of the village.
Along the way, there were all kinds of agricultural products, many of which Lin Jiujiu had never seen.
She was so happy to see it that she couldn't help but buy more.
Originally, there was a little guy who could carry things, but now the little guy was sent away, and he could only carry it for fifteen.
She had a bitter face, it was originally inconvenient to follow Lin Jiujiu empty-handed, and it was even more difficult to keep up now.
"Fifteen, what's going on up front?"
Lin Jiujiu turned around and saw that the fifteen large bags were full, so he was a little embarrassed, "It's okay, I'll go and see for myself." ”
Before the words of fifteen blocks were spoken, Lin Jiujiu had already squeezed in.
Sell yourself to bury your father.
Lin Jiujiu didn't expect such a thing. The little girl kneeling there was no more than twelve or thirteen years old, with a person wrapped in a straw mat on the side, and her face could not be seen clearly, except for a pair of feet covered with dirt.
The little girl looks good, her eyebrows are clear, and she looks like a beautiful embryo, but the price is a little high, thirty taels of silver.
The people who come here to buy things are not rich people, and besides, a little girl is only fifteen or twenty taels at most, so that there are many people who wait and see, but there are no people who really want to buy this little girl.
Lin Jiujiu wanted to help her, but she thought of Zhao Yan'er.
She didn't also look at Zhao Yan'er pitiful, but she didn't expect to lure the wolf into the room in the end.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiujiu's hand that was originally stretched out to the purse was taken out again.
As soon as she put down her hand, she heard a voice: "Yo, the little girl looks good." ”
