Chapter 259: Intercession

Tang Guixi's heart was also very uncomfortable.

But she continued.

"I just chatted with your mother for a while, her ideal daughter-in-law should be a gentle, generous, knowledgeable lady, but I'm not, I can neither take good care of you well, nor can I stay at home all day to help you with housework, I can't integrate into your family."

Lu Yao: "Don't listen to her nonsense!" You are my marriage, not her marriage, what do you care about her?! ”

Tang Guixi: "But she is your mother, she worked so hard to raise you as an adult, and she is an important part of your family, how can I not care about her opinion?" ”

Lu Yao was speechless.

Tang Guixi took a deep breath and said slowly.

"I can actually understand what your mother does, she is all for your good, if it were me, I also hope that my son can find a gentle and considerate wife, instead of marrying a fierce woman like me who can only fight and kill."

Lu Yao: "Don't talk about yourself like that, I think it's good for you to be like this." ”

Tang Guixi felt that his nose was sour.

She resisted the urge to cry and smiled.

"Then your taste is quite peculiar, and you will actually appreciate a woman like me."

Lu Yao wanted to reach out and hug her, but he was afraid that he would surprise her, so he could only resist the impulse in his heart.

"Don't be in a hurry to quit your family, okay?

You give me a little more time, and I'll convince my mom and dad.

Let them agree that I will live with you in the barracks.

If they insist on disagreeing, then I'll wait for you.

When you finish the three-year filial piety period,

When you have taken care of all the things in Liaodong County,

When the imperial court sent someone to take over the Eastern Expeditionary Army,

At that time, we will be married again. ”

Tang Guixi shook his head: "No need, the two of us are not suitable, the marriage contract will be invalidated, this is your Geng post, and the jade pendant you gave me, return it to you." ”

She took out the Geng post and the Guanyin jade pendant from her arms and handed them over.

Lu Yao refused to reach out to pick it up.

He pleaded with his eyes: "Guixi, I finally looked forward to being with you, can you not give up so easily?" ”

Tang Guixi was ruthless: "Since you refuse to accept this Geng post and jade pendant, then I will send them to Lu Junshou later." ”

With that, she turned and left.

Lu Yao shouted at her several times, but he couldn't stop her, and could only watch her go away.

……

Lu Luoguang found that his son was gone, so he laughed and scolded angrily.

"This kid must have gone to find a return."

Shen Xu asked curiously, "How do you know that you are looking for Miss Tang?" ”

Lu Xiaoguang sighed.

"I've been young, and I've had girls like him.

When you like someone, you can't hide that kind of look. ”

Don't think he didn't see it just now, Lu Yao's eyes were almost glued to Tang Guixi.

Shen Xu touched his chin and said, "When you say this, I also want to taste the bitterness of love." ”

Lu Xiguang smiled and asked, "Do you need me to introduce you?" There are a lot of good celebrities in Liaodong County, as long as you want, I will immediately ask those people to send the portraits. ”

Shen Xu immediately waved his hand and said no.

He just said that he was just talking about it, and the days of freedom were not enough, so he didn't want to get married so soon.

Xiao Ti suddenly said: "I have recorded all the things that happened in Liaodong County, and tomorrow I will order someone to send the letter to Yujing and present it to the emperor." ”

The smile on Lu Luoguang's face suddenly froze.

Once the affairs in Liaodong County are exposed, he will not be able to cover up the matter of colluding with local tyrants to wantonly annex the land of the people, and his black yarn hat will not be able to keep it at that time.

Although Lu Luoguang was already mentally prepared for this matter, he couldn't help but have a little luck when it came to the moment.

He said flatteringly: "Your Royal Highness the King of the County, can you please let me go for the sake of me taking the initiative to confess everything?" I promise that I will be a good official conscientiously in the future and never do anything illegal and undisciplined again. ”

Xiao Ti said coldly: "This king told you in advance, you confess everything, this king will protect your whole family's life, as for the rest, don't think about it again." ”

Lu Luoguang didn't give up, and wanted to intercede.

Xiao Ti interrupted him.

"Although this king cannot absolve you of your guilt, he can intercede with the emperor and reduce the punishment for you."

Lu Luoguang was overjoyed, if the punishment could be mitigated, maybe he could still keep the black gauze hat on his head.

He hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness!" You are really a noble man! ”

Xiao Ti said lightly: "Don't be in a hurry to thank you first, there are conditions for letting this king help you intercede." ”

"Please say, as long as the lower official can do it, the lower official will definitely do it!"

Xiao Ti: "Return all the land you have swallowed to the people." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Lu Luoguang's face changed, but even King Min's father and son also showed surprise.

Lu Luoguang hurriedly said: "This must not be! ”

Xiao Ti asked rhetorically: "Why not?" ”

Lu Luoguang seemed to want to say something but didn't dare to say it, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped.

Xiao Ti: "If you have something to say, just say it, there are no outsiders here." ”

When King Min and Shen Xu heard this, they immediately became happy, it seems that King Langjun regarded them as his own.

King Min said: "If you have anything to say, Lu Junshou, we will definitely not spread it." ”

Lu Yaoguang hesitated for a while before saying.

"Okay, let's go through hardships together, so I'll tell you the bottom line.

There are more than 10 powerful and small in Liaodong County.

Those families have much more influence in the local area than I am.

As the saying goes, the iron is strong and the water is the county guard.

The county guard may be transferred away at any time, but those heroes have been rooted here for generations.

If I offend them, my life as a county guard will not be easy.

It is precisely because of this that I have to go along with them and cooperate with them in their wanton annexation of land.

If I want them to spit out all the land now, it will be tantamount to grabbing the tiger's mouth, and they will definitely not agree.

If they make a fuss, they can do anything! ”

Shen Xu snorted: "Is it difficult for them to rebel?" ”

Lu Luoguang said busily.

"It's not going to be a rebellion, but they're going to find a way to get us in trouble.

The previous county guard here was reported for accepting bribes and was removed from his post for investigation because he offended those heroes.

I don't know if he took bribes or not.

Anyway, I know that the people who bribed him are in the same league as the people who reported him.

What's even worse is that after the dismissal, the man returned to his hometown with his family, but unfortunately encountered mountain bandits on the way, and the whole family died. ”

Shen Xu's scalp tingled when he heard this: "How dare they be so rampant? Didn't anyone report it to the court? ”

Lu Luoguang said helplessly: "After I arrived, I reported this matter to the imperial court, and the imperial court ordered General Tang to send troops to extinguish the mountain bandits, and during that time, the mountain bandits in Liaodong County were almost wiped out, but so what? The local heroes are still as stable as Mount Tai. ”
