Chapter 9 Miscellaneous Matters
Qi Acheng still lives in the Xiang family's inner house, but he is not as crowded as before.
In the first month of the New Year, her courtyard was deserted, and she met men, women, and children of the Xiang family along the way, and even her subordinates hurriedly avoided her.
Qi Acheng didn't think it was easy to act.
"What attitude do they have!" Back in the study, the maid raised her eyebrows and shouted, "Miss is going to pay them a New Year's greeting!" Why do you look like a young lady wants to raid their house! ”
Qi Acheng glanced at her waist: "Do you use such a big knife when you go out?" ”
The maid slapped her leg-long knife on the table.
"I'm just alone, what are they afraid of." She said, "The rest of our guards are all outside, if you want to say that you are afraid, you should be afraid, Miss!" ”
Qi Acheng was not afraid at all, Qi Shan and Xiang Nan had previously cooperated in western Zhejiang from cooperation to competition, and even the two sides used weapons to kill each other, when the news came, several masters of the Xiang family called her to ask, and she was not afraid.
"What's this?" She said calmly, "Those who fight wars and fight with knives and guns, the war is changing rapidly, opinions are inevitably different, and their own people will inevitably clash and bleed, which is the same as hitting your lips with your upper and lower teeth." ”
The old man of the Xiang family was speechless for these shameless words.
"My father and Xiang Gongzi are both for Great Xia, in order to quell the rebellion."
"Aren't you all guards?"
"It's Wei Jun is a family, and the family quarrels and does things because of different opinions and ways of doing things, it's a family matter, and it's good to talk about it."
"Look, isn't my father and Nan Gongzi okay too?"
It was all gibberish before, and the last sentence was the truth, although you used knives and guns to fight for me, but in the end, Qi Shan and Xiang Nan divided the western part of Zhejiang, coexisted in peace, and did not continue to fight.
Since they didn't continue to fight, they were scruples about each other and needed each other, if they fought with Qi Acheng, Qi Shan and Xiang Nan could only tear their faces.........
Xiang Yun and Xiang Nan didn't say anything about tearing their faces, and Qi Shan also gave a New Year's gift......
The people of the Xiang family can only do this.
Although he didn't question Qi Acheng again, his attitude towards her was definitely not as good as before, guarded, alienated, and cold......
treated each other like this, Qi Acheng still didn't leave.
"They think Miss is scary, but in fact, Miss is the most dangerous." The maid said indignantly, "Miss lives alone in their house, and the people of the Xiang family can harm Miss at any time." ”
Qi Acheng said: "How can it be at any time!" Only when Xiang Yun or Xiang Nan wants to kill their father. ”
Or when Qi Shan wants to make a move on Xiang Yun and Xiang Nan.
It's not time now.
"So I'm going to stay here." She said, "One is to let outsiders see that the two families are on good terms, and the other is to take the Xiang family as a hostage!" ”
Although she is in the Xiang family, her soldiers and horses have surrounded Andong City, and these men and women of the Xiang family are hostages!
"I'm just one person, and they're hundreds." Qi Acheng tapped the table and smiled, "No matter how powerful Xiang Yun Xiang Nan is outside, he doesn't want to be exterminated." ”
So Nan Gongzi wrote to her, saying that his dispute with his father had nothing to do with her.
The maid pouted: "Just listen to this." ”
How could it be true.
"Who cares if it's real or not!" Qi Acheng said, "This shows that he can't do without us now." ”
The maid smiled: "I don't know if Nan Gongzi has written a letter to Miss Li, Li Dudu and the soldiers and horses of Jiannan Dao are now driven by the female marquis." ”
When it came to the female marquis, Qi Acheng looked envious: "I really didn't expect her to do this." ”
The maid said, "Miss, you don't have to think about it, you are not as good-looking as her." ”
Qi Acheng snorted at her: "No...... Simply because it's good-looking. ”
"It's not because it's good-looking, how can you win Han Xu." The maid pouted, "Without Han Xu's help, how could she kill the monarch and hold the young emperor hostage?" ”
Han Xu was the emperor of the Qinghe River Road, and asked the emperor to rest on the way, and then the lady of Chu Guo went, and the three princes of Emperor Cui Zheng died overnight...... Rebel assassins? Let's coax a three-year-old child.
This assassin was planted by Han Xu.
Then the lady of Chu came to take over the young emperor.
"Not only the young emperor, but even Li Mingyu was taken over by her."
"Han Xu has always been in charge of Jiannan Dao."
"It's all three of them...... No, there is also Wu Ya'er, the Quartet joins forces. ”
Listening to the maid's analysis, Qi Acheng was absent-minded.
It doesn't matter if it depends on beauty or what, Mrs. Chu has done it anyway.
Since Mrs. Chu can do it, so can she!
She is not beautiful, but her father has soldiers and horses.
Now it doesn't matter what happens to the court or the princess, what to do is to hoard more soldiers and horses to control more power, and then ......
Qingjun side! Hoe rape! Bless the Young Emperor!
As long as the female marquis is killed, it is as great as killing the traitors in Ankang Mountain, and the regent can support the young emperor.
When the time comes, it's not impossible to let my father also make himself a marquis, right?
Qi Acheng pursed his lips and smiled.
However, there must be many people who think this way, and she smiled and cheered up.
Therefore, we must gather more soldiers and horses to strengthen our power, and now is not the time to tear up your face with Xiang.
The maid snorted: "Xiang thinks so too. ”
"I'm afraid they don't want to!" Qi Acheng said, "Everyone wants to work better together." ”
As for how to divide the profits after cooperation, it depends on their respective abilities.
Qi Acheng stood up: "Let's go, go and pay New Year's greetings to Mrs. Tai." ”
The maid said, "Is this a New Year's greeting?" This is a blockage! ”
She grabbed her broadsword and strode after it.
………
………
On the road far away in western Zhejiang, there are also people who bring gifts to visit relatives and friends.
"Qi Dudu's side won't let us into the city." Chen Er looked at the gifts on the horse's back, in addition to the gifts, there were also heavy weapons, "They have already suffered a loss last time." ”
The accompanying soldiers and horses were also heavily armoured, and they made a lot of marks on the winter road.
Xiang Nan smiled: "Try it, what if they think that a method will not be used twice, I am sincerely here to pay New Year's greetings, and invite me into the city?" ”
Chen Er sneered: "Then do you dare to enter?" Last time, they didn't expect you to dare to enter the city and rob the city, but now they have seen through your sincerity, and you will be locked up when you enter the city? ”
Xiang Nan said honestly: "I don't dare." ”
Chen Er was angry: "Then this is for a trip for nothing?" Is it so idle in the winter? If you don't care about Huainan Dao, your ex-wife's housekeeper will change Huainan Dao's surname to Li! ”
"I haven't separated from Miss Li, we're husband and wife." Xiang Nan corrected, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm now a relative and friend of the Li family's Qi family!" ”
Chen Er heard him joke and was silent.
When attacking Anton, Miss Li asked the housekeeper Jiang Hui to bring some soldiers and horses to help, and since then these soldiers and horses have remained in the white-robed army, unlike other soldiers and horses that the white-robed army has collected and replenished along the way, they do not wear white robes.
Miss Li left Anton and went home, without taking Xie Bingma away.
"If you say that you will help your son, you will always help your son."
This kind of affectionate words are very touching in the peaceful and prosperous world, now......
"It's just to put people here and grab credit!" Chen Er sneered, "You better send the people away quickly." ”
"Not good, not good." Xiang Nan waved his hand, "You don't understand, and this time I really went to pay New Year's greetings, as long as I don't do it, they won't do it, just hello, I'm good, everyone." ”
Chen Er felt so bored: "What's so good about this, why do you all like to lie to yourself?" ”
"Wrong." Xiang Nan waved his hand at him again, "We are lying to the imperial court." ”
Said here and smiled again.
"To be exact, it's a liar."
"We're all fine, she's not going to be too good."
"If we don't have a good relationship with each other, her life will be good."
Chen Er didn't understand, so he simply threw it away, and since he mentioned the female marquis, he asked, "What did you write to her?" Didn't you say that you had broken off the relationship? ”
"I broke off contact with her." Xiang Nandao, "So I won't go to the capital to visit her, and besides, I am very poor this year and poor next year, so there will be no taxes, silver, rice and grain to be handed over to the court within three years, so that she can take pity on me in the past." ”
I can't help but laugh when I say this.
"I wonder if she's free to pity me?"
As a female marquis, the regent is very busy.
………
………
The officials and people in the capital are very busy this New Year, and they are busy with a Lantern Festival.
Although there were many guards on the streets, although the people were restricted to different areas and were not allowed to move around casually, although they were not allowed to set off firecrackers and fireworks without permission, for the officials and people of the capital who had not celebrated the Lantern Festival for five years, that day was like a dream.
There are fixed lanterns in every street and alley, and there are floats and floats passing by, and the Son of Heaven rides the dragon to watch the floats, and all the people rejoice, bow, cry, and finally countless people sing and dance together......
Just like in the peaceful and prosperous times, the emperor often rejoiced with the people at that time.
It's back to the peaceful and prosperous times of the past.
Crying and laughter circled the capital for three days.
The top and bottom were also exhausted, and Chen Xiangye asked the officials to rest for three days.
But there are also many people who can't rest, and in the First Marquis's Mansion, Li Minglou's desk is piled up, and several officials are reading one document after another.
Li Minglou held his head in his hands, as if he was listening and seemed to be distracted, until the last person finished speaking.
"So, they either only have gifts and no one comes, or they don't have gifts and no one comes?" Li Minglou asked.
"Huainan Road, Hebei Road, Hedong Road, Shannan Road, all have gifts." One official said, "People are here." ”
Two of them belong to Li Minglou, she herself is in the capital, Shannan is controlled by Li Mingyu, Li Mingyu was sent out by the female marquis to inspect various places, Hebei Province is his own Liang Zhen, he said that if he can't leave, he really can't leave.
Li Minglou hummed and looked at the documents they put down: "There are a few who don't even have gifts." ”
It's too lazy to put on a show.
If you don't come to worship the new emperor, as soon as you stretch out your hand to the court empty-handed, we have nothing, can you do this?
"This side is the state capitals......" On the other side, several officials held papers.
Li Minglou said: "No need to read it, I know." ”
As she expected, for many people and places today, the court and the Son of Heaven are just decorations.
They don't pay their respects, they don't pay taxes, and they pay lip service to ministers, which is already the greatest respect.
Jiang Liang said: "It's acceptable if you don't meet or pay taxes." ”
After all, the world is not yet peaceful, all places need to be stable, the commander of the guards and horses cannot leave, and the people who have experienced war and chaos are not living, and the imperial court will also take the initiative to exempt taxes......
"The biggest problem is that they don't follow orders."
Once the orders of the imperial court are not conveyed and the government decrees are not passed, the world will not be considered a complete world.
