Chapter 167: Worrying Things

Shen Hongxue's words immediately held back the anger that the old man of the Shen family was about to emit, pointed at him with trembling shoulders and stared at him for a long time, but he couldn't say half a word. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

When Shen Hongxue was closed in the ancestral hall and asked Liu Qingxin to follow the marriage contract and marry outside, he didn't know ...... The two of them are already in love......

At that time, he was only angry with Shen Hongxue's unkindness, so he ......

Shen Hongxue looks very much like him, and Liu Qingxin looks very much like his wife who died early, he doesn't have the idea of matching the two of them into pairs, otherwise, he will not let Liu Qingxin live in the Shen family all the time, let her get along with Shen Hongxue at dusk, and get close to the two without interfering at all.

To regret marriage, there must be a reason, at least to ensure that Liu Qingxin, the girl he has loved since childhood, can be happy, but Shen Hongxue's disappointed him, and when he knew that Shen Hongxue's "unkindness" was actually just a misunderstanding, Liu Qingxin's wedding car had already entered the Ningxia territory, and it was too late.

Shen Hongxue mentioned to him that he wanted to take someone to hijack the wedding car and snatch Liu Qingxin back, but he thought twice and did not agree.

Of course, it is precisely because of this reason that Shen Hongxue couldn't afford to get sick, and she had been lying on the bed for more than half a year, suffering from madness, babbling nonsense all day long, and being groggy.

Although the old man of the Shen family likes Liu Qingxin's granddaughter, Shen Hongxue's grandson is also the object of his concern, Shen Hongxue's illness for half a year, his life was not easy, not to mention, the growing gray hair on his head was enough to betray what he wanted, Shen Hongxue's father and mother saw it in their eyes and understood it in their hearts. It is inevitable to feel distressed and blamed, but he didn't dare to say half a sentence, for fear that his old man would be too stimulated, and there would be something long and short.

"Boy, grandpa knows that you have been until now, and you have not been able to give up on the light-hearted girl. This thing. It's grandpa who is so confused that it hurts you......"

The old man of the Shen family closed his eyes painfully as he spoke. These two children are a good match like a golden boy and a girl, but it's a pity that they have no fate. destined for this life...... Can't be together anymore!

Before, Liu Qingxin evaded the murder of Bi Chengen and Cui'er's. ran away from home and her whereabouts are unknown, and the old man of the Shen family sent Shen Hongxue to find her, not without the intention of fulfilling them. Although, Liu Qingxin is no longer an unmarried lady, but. Shen Hongxue doesn't mind the person who wants to marry her, he is an old man. and what they do...... But unexpectedly, people are not as good as heaven, and some things cannot be made up for after all, and everyone has their own destiny......

"The past is all in the past."

Seeing that the old man of the Shen family was relieved, Shen Hongxue knew that there was a door for him to mention to the old man of the Shen family, "Now, I just want to be okay with my heart, be carefree, and live the rest of her life happily......"

Speaking of this, Shen Hongxue paused slightly, and then "pounced" and knelt in front of the old man of the Shen family, "Sun Er hopes that with the power of the Shen family, he can help the third prince survive the crisis, so that the second half of his life can be relied on!" ”

"Okay, this matter, grandpa promised you, get up, get up, Hongxue boy, hurry, get up."

Hearing that Shen Hongxue just said that he wanted to protect Liu Qingxin in the second half of his life and help Zhu Lingjun through the crisis, instead of fulfilling him himself, let him kidnap Liu Qingxin, live in seclusion with her, and never reappear in front of the eyes of the laity, the old man of the Shen family was also relieved, got up in a hurry, and helped him up from the ground.

The former is just a gesture, although it is dangerous, but it is not very difficult, but the latter is enough to make the entire Shen family be the "big deal" of the nine clans, the lesser of two evils, the old man of the Shen family agreed to Shen Hongxue's proposal without hesitation, and he did not embarrass him at all!

……

With the consent of the old man of the Shen family, Shen Hongxue went straight out, starting from Zhouzhuang, all the way to the south, in several powerful cities of the Shen family, and the shopkeepers in the city, one by one explained the "top priority" for a period of time...... The person who was born in Linglu, but received the favor and preferential treatment of Emperor Longqing, did not want to repay, but teamed up with his henchmen to rob the people of the birthday gifts offered to the late Empress Dowager Xiaoke, and quickly publicized it, striving to make it known to everyone!

Of course, as smart as Shen Hongxue, he did not forget to "mention" these shopkeepers, and began to hoard a large amount of grain, except for the ordinary people who came to buy grain, giving a limit of up to three catties, others, especially those in the army who wanted to buy grain on a large scale, refused to sell it on the grounds of insufficient storage.

This is true of grain, of course with horses, and as for salt...... It is even more so that he simply stopped trafficking, communicated with all salt transport convoys, directly parked on the spot, and hoarded in the local Shen family warehouse, and no longer moved forward!

The Shen family's tough attitude suddenly made the two big camps in the northeast and south of the Yangtze River, which were usually negligent in hoarding supplies, panic, seeing that the grain and grass in the big warehouse were decreasing day by day, but there was no supply coming in, and he heard a letter from home, talking about the despicable things done by Ling Ling and his henchmen, and the possibility that Emperor Longqing might impose heavy penalties on those who had anything to do with them...... The first deserter appeared!

There is one thing, there is another, and immediately after, there is a group of people who follow the trend.

The Northeast Battalion, which was the first to desert, "inexplicably lost" hundreds of soldiers in just three days, and by the fourth day, there was an incredible "whole tent escape", the so-called "whole tent escape", that is, more than 20 soldiers living in a camp tent, together with the commander in charge of these more than 20 soldiers, became deserters, and the entire military tent was vacated!

There are deserters, which is not a new thing, but a flight of this scale is unheard of in the entire Ming Dynasty and hundreds of years of records.

The first person to panic was, of course, Depingbo Li Ming.

The Northeast Camp, but the foundation of their Li family, if something happens to the Northeast Camp, even if Emperor Longqing doesn't clean up their Li family, they won't get half of the benefits!

Holding the power of the army, they have done too many immoral things.

Once the military power is not guaranteed, all the things that were forcibly suppressed in the past will have to be picked up, whether it is the private sale of military horses, the sale of official beards, even if it is a "trivial matter" such as taking the soldiers' salaries to put the money in prints...... It's enough for their Li family to be beheaded all over the house!

No, being beheaded all over the house, I'm afraid it's all light!

Glory and wealth are happy in the family, and everyone envy them when they become officials, but they also have to have a life to earn and enjoy their lives, which is worth it.

Faced with this embarrassing dilemma, Depingbo Li Ming couldn't help but waver.

Zhu Lingli is his grandson, surnamed Zhu, not surnamed Li, no matter how close he is, he is an outsider after all, even in the future, he can really sweep away the old enemy and ascend to the throne, they are only his courtiers and relatives.

With the laws of the Ming Dynasty, wanting the dictatorship of relatives is tantamount to ascending to the sky.

For him to be such a can't help Adou, he took all of their Li family's own, no matter how you calculate it, it's not worth it.

But...... If they just give in and admit their cowardice and make peace with Zhu Lingjun, will they be able to have good fruits to eat?

Obviously, it can't be either.

"Father, we have to quickly find a way to come out, if it goes on like this, there should be a big incident on the side of the Northeast Camp!"

The person who spoke was Li Ming's concubine Li Wang, who was favored by his mother, and was very close to Li Ming in ordinary times, especially in recent years, because of the family's property, and Ling Li's uncle was not very happy.

Before, because of Ling Ming's momentum, Li Ming had high expectations for Ling Ling, and he didn't dare to speak casually in front of people, only when there were two of them, only when there were two of them, one or two sentences came out from time to time to comment on Ling Ling's non-business, and he was addicted to it.

"Is there a good plan for my son?"

Li Ming was forced by the situation to frown, racking his brains and unable to think of a way to deal with it, at this moment, listening to Li Wang's sudden words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he looked at him, hoping to hear some valuable proposals from his mouth to solve their Li family's urgent needs.

"The girl who married out, the water that was spilled, Sister Yan couldn't be regarded as a member of our Li family a few years ago, as for that Zhu Lingling, don't say that Your Majesty has announced to the world, he is not Your Majesty's son, even if he is Your Majesty's son, whether he can gain power in the future or not, what does it have to do with our Li family? He became the emperor, and he can still make our Li family, all officials to the first grade, and he can't hold the seal in his hand! ”

Seeing that Li Ming signaled to himself but said that it was okay, Li Wang didn't care at all, and said his thoughts, while speaking, he glanced at Lingling's uncle with disdain, and the provocative meaning was overflowing, "Even if we do our best to help that Zhu Linglu now and support him to become the emperor, he won't read us either!" There is a lesson from the past that we helped him force the palace to seize the throne today, and in the future, will he not guard against us? It's strange if you're not guarded! ”

"You go on."

What Li Ming has always thought about is that after supporting Ling Ling to take the throne, their Li family will be able to rely on the identity of this relative, continue to hold the military power freely, ask for money, people, and food, at this time, when Li Wang said this, he was stunned for a moment, and his brows were slightly twisted to think about what he said.

That's right.

The emperor's heart, the needle under the sea, today's support, may not be able to exchange for the trust of the future, the stinky old man of the Jiang family is the best example, desperately helping Emperor Jiajing guard the border for decades, in the end, it is not the same, being suspicious, being deposed, to this day, can only be sent back to his hometown, and live a miserable life where he can't even get a salary?

Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, who knows if in the future, their Li family will also follow the path of the old man of the Jiang family?

With Ling Ling's ruthless temperament, I'm afraid ...... Only over, there will be nothing less! (To be continued)
