Chapter 37: A clever mouth is a shield and a blessing
Having said so many words, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) has a clear purpose of making these people realize that she is not the princess of the previous dynasty, and this identity also forces her to avoid being arrested by the court in the future.
Qiu Tiankui saw that the soldiers in front of him were standing in front of the gate of Jifu, and saw Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) muttering non-stop, he was still a little puzzled that these people did not arrest Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting), but listened to her.
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) felt that no matter how much he said, it was not as good as the prestige of Jifu, and if Qiu Tiankui wanted to move his troops quickly, he would inevitably receive favors from nearby officials who were good friends with Jifu.
She decided to attack the heart, and put forward the metaphor of using her family being threatened as a hostage by others in an empathetic way, and tried her best to say things she didn't know from her own tone.
"Have you guys who have captured me ever thought that even if a woman is considered to be the main arrester today, it is obviously ridiculous for countless people to want to make a fortune from a girl, and it is the person behind you who contributes to maximize the benefits."
"It's as if you're fighting hard for a piece of fat, and at this moment your so-called achievements are being seized by some high-ranking people, just like your family members are being arrested by the so-called court because they can't afford to pay the burden of forced labor."
Everyone didn't know how to answer, and they didn't know that the court had sent them to arrest the woman in front of them, and if they were all arrested, who would the credit be given to them, so they couldn't help but hesitate to discuss.
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) saw that these people were obviously a little hesitant, and boldly guessed that if it was the nearby officers and soldiers who almost all knew Jifu, it would be better to use Ji Xiuming's prestige to deter them.
"Let me explain that this is Jifu, and you indiscriminately believe that such villains have injured my father, but who knows that my father is the most prestigious Jihou in this place, and officials everywhere dare not provoke him."
"You don't know me Jifu, I said that I am the only daughter of Jifu and there is a bit of hatred for your head family is the Qiu family, this hatred is pure misunderstanding, but this Qiu family relies on their own power to bully me a weak woman, and you still have to help bully."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) touched her tears, deliberately crying, she pointed to Qiu Tiankui, who did not know why, and justified herself for not being the princess of the previous dynasty.
"You might as well calm down and think carefully about my identity, if I am the princess of the previous dynasty, the guards in the palace are heavily guarded, and all the masters from all walks of life gather here just to clear all the bloodlines of the previous dynasty by the emperor's order, and you can secretly get rid of me without bloodshed and without losing your reputation, why do you want to make a big move?"
"That's what the girl said." , Some of the officers and soldiers felt that Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) spoke very smartly, and they all said involuntarily: "The royal affairs are not something that we ordinary people can understand, and besides, this emperor and that emperor, I have never seen anyone understand our hard work of farming every day." ”
"I don't know if any of you officials have ever done something under my father's hands, but then again, my father is a low-key person, and he used to treat his brothers who have been fighting for years and have been born and died very well."
Hearing Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) mention Ji Xiuming's name, it was a good official within a radius of 100 miles, and the people had to give a thumbs up and praise again and again, and even the people who had been favored by Ji Xiuming as a soldier also felt that he was a good official who thought about the people.
"If you are an outsider, you may not know Ji Xiuming's contribution to the local people, he is a food and clothing parent official for the relief of food and clothing in troubled times to benefit the people, if you are a local child, you must know that it is Ji Xiuming who risked his life to save your starving parents."
"Now you are wantonly listening to the words of the so-called villain, and you are trampling on the parents who helped you in the past, and in the face of the rapid drought, you still find that you have forgotten not long ago today, decades ago?"
Some people who have experienced drought in the local area understand that if there is no official like Ji Xiuming, they are afraid that they will be corrupt and corrupt to oppress their own family members, so they have to swallow their anger and do things for these masters.
"You have thought that there is no so-called reward, and in the end, it is not you who are at the forefront of the struggle to get it, but the one who can get the greatest reward for not working is the Qiu family."
"I don't know what kind of benefits the Qiu family has given you, anyway, don't forget that my Jifu has helped you in difficult times."
"Girl, you're right, Jihou didn't hesitate to bump into the court officials in order to open a granary for us, Jihou's position was not too high at that time, but it was indeed honest and honest."
When the officials heard that Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) was talking about Ji Xiuming's past, they couldn't help but oppose the local people or relatives who attacked Jifu, and they wanted to lay down their arms.
"My father's affairs will naturally be evaluated by future generations, no matter whether it is positive or negative, it is a clear conscience,"
"What a clear conscience, I don't know if our family, who was relieved and endeavoured by Jifu, unconditionally went to help the imperial court to attack Jifu, I don't know if it offended my parents."
Recalling Ji Xiuming's merits, when there was a drought here, there was no rain for many years, the crops were not harvested, the officials did not act to continue to increase taxes just to complete the bureaucratic rewards, and the granaries were closed, which caused many people to be disgusted.
"Fathers and fellow villagers, I just know that one sentence is good, there is no need to come and go often, at least we must tolerate each other, we are all from the same town or fellow villagers, no matter what difficulties you have, will you forget the people who helped you."
"Jihou saved our family in the past, and in those years of drought, Jihou provided food, we shouldn't help the imperial court to help Ji's family, that's our benefactor."
In the past, it was indeed Ji Xiuming who led the people to arrest corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and also reported to the court under great pressure, rather than the black gauze hat on his head, but also to maintain the noble character of seeking benefits for the people.
Ji Xiuming also wrote a series of articles to report the local drought to the former emperor Prince Liangfa, and later got the permission of the imperial court to open the granary to relieve the local people, Ji Xiuming was also very low-key to give credit to the imperial court some mercenary officials.
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) wanted to carry forward Jifu's kindness to you, thinking that Ji Xiuming's waist was unintentionally taking out a local government token.
"I don't know if you have heard me say so much, the token in my hand is better than my own three-inch tongue, this is the token of Jifu, and the meaning is extraordinary."
People who know each other are afraid of Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) when they see the token in his hand, this token is not an ordinary token, it can control the entire town for the Jifu concession, and it is also the right that the royal family has personally given to the Jifu to cut first and then play.
"You don't remember the kindness of Jifu, remember to acquiesce in your heart, for this token in my hand, I think everyone is familiar with it."
"I am a female streamer, and I am also my only descendant in Jifu." , Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) couldn't help but tears crossed her face, she looked at the token in her hand, her voice choked but shouted: "If you still support the kindness of my Jifu to you relief granary, please let me bury him with my own hands, and bury him near Jifu forever to kiss the land that raised him and continue to protect the residents of this town." ”
"We decided to see off Jihou together, to thank him for his kindness in the past, and now we can't use weapons against our own benefactors."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) deliberately fell to the ground with one foot, her arm was obviously slippery on the steps and accidentally helped Xiuming and fell injured, in order to win everyone's sympathy, she separated her injured arm on the cold road, rolled up her sleeves and turned purple, and her mouth was bitter.
"My Ji family is loyal and patriotic, and almost all the personnel in the family were mobilized on the battlefield, nine deaths, not seeking fame and fortune, the horse leather shroud is still there, and I am a young woman, and I enjoy the hard-won peace with my father, but I was slandered by the faint king, and the sky has no eyes."
At this time, only the token made the court officers and soldiers who were mobilized nearby by Qiu Tiankui obey, Qiu Tiankui saw that the officers and soldiers were still not arrested and were very impatient, and angrily scolded later.
"Dare this is the daughter of a criminal, what the hell are you going to do, don't be biased by her words, you stupid guys."
Everyone is very sympathetic to Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting)'s current experience, and Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) also relied on her acting skills to cry and Ji Xiuming's kindness to them.
In the face of Qiu Tiankui, who had no idea, some people with conscience chose to help Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting), Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) was also very considerate of these good people who could distinguish between right and wrong, and in order to prevent them from becoming victims of the power struggle, they chose to compromise with their own righteousness.
"I don't embarrass you, no matter how my Jifu used to treat you, no matter what your family situation is like now, whether your family is doing or not, it is your own achievement, I can't do much but to reduce the pain and let me face the mistakes that I shouldn't admit alone."
"We don't want to arrest you, after all, you are the only bloodline in Jifu, and if it is not necessary, we can't bear to kill you all if it is not for the will of the imperial court."
"I have a good way, you pretend to arrest me to deceive Qiu Tiankui, the nearby soldiers who should have rushed from Jifu, they will definitely take revenge when they learn that Ji Xiuming's accident was caused by Qiu Tiankui, and this matter has nothing to do with you at that time."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) had firm eyes and steady breathing, she swaggered forward, her eyes signaled the soldiers behind her who pretended to catch herself to stare at herself, and let the soldiers deliberately push herself in order to show the truth.
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) paused for a while, she used her eyes to let the soldiers continue to push her to Qiu Tiankui, in order to pretend to be caught, she actually approached Qiu Tiankui to avenge Ji Xiuming's unjust death, and many soldiers were treated by Ji Xiuming's kindness.
