Chapter XVI Follow-up
To be rich and powerful is to be capricious.
You must know that from now on, Wang Jibao will enjoy 30% of the tax revenue of the two fiefdoms in southern and northern Hunan every year. What's more important to know is that these two places are located in the richest Jiangnan realm, although they cannot be compared with large counties like Zhongzhou, but they are also much richer than the other places.
In this way, Wang Jibao children's shoes have become an authentic local tyrant. She has taken a whole big step towards the road of 'white rich beauty'.
Next, in addition to the emperor's reward, there were also congratulatory gifts from Empress Dowager Jiang, Empress Qin, Liu Guifei and the rest of the concubines. The legs and feet of the Heshun Hou Mansion received gifts were cramped. While busy receiving gifts, he was busy kneeling and thanking. Therefore, it is not only the hands that are tired, but also the feet that are tired walking back and forth.
The rewards given in the entire front yard palace are full of rows.
In the envy of everyone, it entered today's theme activity - grasping the week.
Deshou watched the ceremony for His Majesty the Emperor, and the attendants sent by the other palaces to give gifts also watched the ceremony on behalf of the masters of each family.
Wang Jibao finally lived up to expectations and grabbed a lot of things in her hands. Tired of everyone, everyone racked their brains and said all kinds of auspicious words.
After that, Wang Jibao was carried down to rest, and the first birthday banquet of the Hou Mansion continued to be more lively than before.
--------------------
The trial waiting for Aunt Wang and Aunt Yue also ushered in the final trial the next day.
Aunt Yue and her family were all sold from afar.
Aunt Wang was ordained in the family temple. It is called a blessing for the whole family.
In the courtyard of Aunt Yue and Aunt Wang, except for Aunt Wang's personal maid Ning Xiang, all the slaves were sold after 30 years of cane sling.
Ning Xiang was directly killed with a cane.
And the slaves in Wang Jibao's courtyard, except for Mama Xu, were also sold after being tortured.
Mama Xu also became a monk in the family temple with Aunt Wang. However, she has one more job, which is to be responsible for taking care of Aunt Wang.
Wang Yuting, the seventh young master who created conditions for criminals to commit crimes and pretended to be sick, did not escape punishment. He was punished to kneel in the ancestral hall for one day and copy the house rules a hundred times.
In the following years, because of this incident, Wang Jibao was guarded more severely.
Prince Jing's Mansion originally wanted to wait for Wang Jibao's matter to be dealt with before he came to propose marriage. As a result, it didn't take long for the news that Prince Jing's princess was seriously ill.
The matter of proposing marriage is really not suitable for discussion at this time, so it is delayed.
After this incident, Wang Jibao's whole person became wilted. At this time, the servants in the entire Baozhu Courtyard were cleaned from the inside out.
But what could she say? Those people were indeed derelict in their duties, and if only one person had been left to watch in her room, I am afraid that such a big thing would not have happened.
At that time, she did have the element of deliberately pretending to be dizzy in it. But no one knew that she had indeed walked through the ghost gate. If it weren't for Jing Yi's timely appearance, she might indeed have been thrown to death, or she might have been covered to death.
God knows that she was weak at the time, and it took several twists and turns to survive intact.
After that, the palace issued a punishment order to Wang Ziyi and told him to think about it behind closed doors. He also sent a lot of shocking gifts and supplements to Wang Jibao.
But the little guy's spirit has not been good.
Now Wang Jibao stayed in Jiang's arms and watched her mother choose a slave for herself.
"Mrs. Shizi, these are all new goods that have come recently, and I guarantee that my net worth is clean." The one who spoke was the most famous Ya woman in Yongdu, surnamed Li.
Of course, Jiang disdained to talk to people like Li Yapo, so he gave Jiang Ma a look.
Jiang's mother shouted at Li Yapo: "Then let's start quickly." The lady of our family and the county lord don't have so much spare time to spend here with you. ”
"Yes, yes, the old woman will bring them in."
Soon after Li Yapo bowed and withdrew, she brought in about twenty girls, ranging from seven or eight years old to eleven or two years old, lined up and waiting for the main family to choose.
Li Yapo said respectfully: "It's all here, please take a look at Mrs. Shizi." ”
Jiang glanced down and nodded at Jiang's mother.
Jiang's mother understood and immediately walked up to Jiang's. Jiang Shi whispered a few numbers to Jiang's mother.
After hearing this, Mother Jiang nodded to indicate that she understood, then got up and returned to the seat she had just stood up, and said loudly: "The second, six, seven, nine, ten, eleven, thirteen, and fifteen stand up." ”
A few girls, you look at me, I'll look at you. The first few sorts naturally stood up.
For the remaining few, Jiang Ma clicked a few times casually, "You, you, yes, and you, the one next to you, don't look at it, and you"
When the person stood up, Jiang's mother replied: "Mrs. Shizi, is it just a few." Is there anything missing? ”
Jiang Shi nodded slightly. These girls have beautiful faces and are not overly prominent, but they are not ugly.
Jiang's mother understood, "The rest of the people will be brought down first, and our wife will have to pick these few again." ”
"Yes, yes." Li Yapo nodded after hearing this.
Then he shouted and took the rest of the people down.
These people look like they have gone through a good **, and they haven't shouted, screamed, shaken, or moved from beginning to end. It's just that you can still see some clues on their faces.
The people who were selected naturally looked happy, and the disappointment of those who were not selected was overflowing. There are also those who want to fight for opportunities, and those who are eager to try and who want to say but dare not say it. Before it could be implemented, it was pulled down by Li Yapo.
Waiting for the superfluous people to go out, Jiang walked down with Wang Jibao in his arms.
Sniffed the scent of the people who had left them behind. He stretched out his hands and looked carefully at the fingernails of several people. Then he turned behind them and looked at their hair.
Finally, he returned to the main seat and asked a few people to take off their shoes.
Jiang's mother carefully checked whether the toenails of several people were neatly trimmed, and by the way, she smelled whether several people had foot odor.
In this way, two more people were eliminated.
Jiang asked the remaining few people to report their net worth.
The experiences of several people are very similar, either the family is poor and can't even afford to eat, so they have to sell themselves into slavery to reduce the burden on the family. Either there are unkind elders, brothers and sisters-in-law in the family, and they must not be sold to Ya Po as slaves and maids. None of them were trafficked.
It's just that one of them's eyes is rolling around when he speaks, and there is obviously an element of fraud. Therefore, this person was also eliminated.
The last few remaining people, Jiang Shi, asked Li Yapo to stay, and told them that they would be sent in again if there were good ones in the future.
After going down, Jiang's mother gave Li Yapo and the others money for selling themselves and hard money, and sent her away.
In order to become a slave of the Marquis of Heshun, you must sell a death contract, which is customary. Several people had no objections. Jiang's mother arranged for someone to complete all the deeds of sale of these people.
Then he asked someone to arrange the residence of these people, and uniformly arranged their future pre-job training.
