Zhu Dawu and Feng Zheng came in with a sandalwood small table to avoid the paper and pen being wet by the rain, as if they had expected the weather.

Lu Ying was embarrassed, picked up the milk tea and took another sip.

The little man, who had only worked three hours a day, had been working for two and a half hours today, and as his hours were running out, his energy was declining, and not only was he listless in his speech, but his patience was at its worst in the day.

Usually, Lu Ying will consciously finish the work that requires rationality as soon as possible, just look at the documents and account books at this time, and if she wants to kill someone, she will not make a decision at this time, so she will save too much anger and kill those who should not be killed.

Who knew that there were guests today, the four maids, Hua Meijing, Lanshan Lanxi, Zhu Dawu, and Feng Zheng all knew about Lu Ying's temperament, and they were as quiet as chickens at this time.

Second Master Luo sat down cautiously and opened the polite words that are common when nobles talk about things.

Lu Ying sat and listened, occasionally answered, and after listening to a cup of tea, he saw that Second Master Luo was not going to finish, picked up a piece of paper, took a pen and hooked a circle on it, and curled his thin white little fingers on the ebony pen.

Second Master Luo didn't finish talking for a long time, Lu Ying ticked a few more circles, and handed it to Lan Xi: "Give it to Kofei, let him take someone to finish it tonight." ”

Luo Qiyi's eyes were better than those of the second uncle, and he could see that the paper was full of names, and he chuckled in his heart, and an indescribable chill rose, This, this, this...... This Young Master Sun of the Lu family is not listening to his second uncle's speech while circling the list of murderers!

He subconsciously pulled Luo Erye's sleeve fiercely, Luo Erye didn't notice it for a while, and was directly pulled by his nephew and slid from the chair to the ground, fell on his stomach, and the chair was lifted, and a loud bang sounded in the house!

Lu Ying closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, his face remained unchanged and asked Second Master Luo to help him up.

"I already know the intention of the two, now Qiongya Island is gathering many people to open up the wasteland, it is the time when there is a shortage of iron tools, Grandpa Luo is willing to use iron ore to settle the business with the Lu family, Lu Ying is grateful, it doesn't matter if the migrating woman can't do anything, we can talk about something else."

Luo Qiyi was a little stunned, and admired Lu Ying a little for a while, his second uncle was the best at using words to stun people, and then take advantage of business, but Lu Ying accurately summarized so much information from his second uncle's nonsense.

Second Master Luo is not surprised, Lu Ying is the only heir of the Lu family now, and in the future, the title of Duke of Qiongguo, the entire Qiongya Island, and Nanyang will belong to him.

I heard that Lu Xuan even invited Wen Yuyun, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, to be a teacher for Lu Ying, who was not only the founding courtier of the Kailong Emperor era, but also a well-known hard-working and lonely minister in the court, who did not form a party or engage in personal gain, and once served as a servant of the Ministry of Officials.

A noble like Lu Ying, who does not lack a title or even a throne, does not need to spend too much effort in the imperial examination at all, and it is the best arrangement to get one-on-one teaching from Wen Yuyun.

They negotiated that Qiongya Island would produce medicine, grain, salt and sugar from Yunnan for iron, and Lu Ying proposed that although it was impossible to buy women, he could also buy others, such as prisoners.

Second Master Luo's face was surprised: "Prisoner? What did Lu Gongzi buy these sluts for? ”

Lu Ying: "When opening mountains and building roads, digging wells and building land, it is inevitable that there will be heavy work with a particularly high risk of death, and it is inevitable and wasteful to let a good family do it, if you let the prisoners do it, because they have all committed serious crimes, it is not a pity to die." ”

Second Master Luo: "That's the same." ”

The two men did not care about the lives of the prisoners in their conversations.

Zheng'er Bajing read the "Yu Law" reader, Luo Qiyi has a different opinion, he interjected: "But the offenders have been punished, we should respect the orders of the imperial court, Qiongya Island is enough, Yunnan Road, still can't be arbitrary." ”

Second Master Luo glared at this nerdy nephew and wanted to scold him, but the court didn't really pay attention to the prisoner's life, so you want to talk too much here? What's more, the Luo family is short of military supplies, and they can't ask for good things that can exchange prisoners for money, food, medicine, salt, sugar and oil! This stupid boy still wants to push it out!

Lu Ying showed an interested expression, and he looked at Luo Qiyi's ...... first face, I found that this person, as the third generation of the Luo family, is much better looking than the second generation of Luo's second master, it seems that his father married a beautiful woman and improved his bloodline, although a face is not as good as Qiu Yu and Lu Fang, it can be regarded as upright and handsome, and his manners are gentle, and he is tall

is tall and sturdy, it should be the martial arts of the Luo family.

Both civil and military, young and upright, not stupid but not so smart that it is difficult to control, and the Luo family has an ancestral good physique.

Out of various considerations, Lu Ying cheered up and suddenly asked a few questions about "Yu Law".

Luo Qiyi only thought that this kid was asking for advice from himself, even if he felt that Lu Ying's question was abrupt, he answered them one by one.

Second Master Luo's emotional intelligence was higher, and he found that Lu Ying's tone was not so much asking for advice as it was about taking the school, and when Luo Qiyi answered the correct answer, Lu Ying felt a little more satisfied on his face.

Now Nanyu's law is basically inherited from the sugar sent before and farther forward, it is not strict, where there is a case, it needs to go through the government's preliminary trial, review before it can be judged, if the crime is committed by the gentry, members of the big clan, but also add a ring of mercy trial (mainly for vulnerable groups such as widows, widows, the elderly and the weak, but generally can enjoy the mercy of the trial will not be this group).

In the end, the government only warned and refrained, or fined some money, and the heavier ones were flogging, which was punished with a bamboo stick and a cane, and the sentence to imprisonment and exile was a very serious crime.

There is also a difference between imprisonment and exile, imprisonment is to be locked up in a fixed place for several years of hard labor, exile is directly sent to the worst environment, and it is not uncommon for prisoners to die on the road, which is much more cruel than imprisonment.

In order to sentence the three levels of imprisonment, exile and death, the case must be reported to the three legal divisions of the central government, namely the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Dali Temple.

The Criminal Department will send officials to review the case to avoid unjust and wrongful convictions, such as insufficient evidence, inconsistency between the case and the laws cited in the judgment, etc., the case will be sent back for retrial, and there is also a supervision of the imperial history to inspect the world, not only whether the local officials are clear or not, and have the power to directly play the emperor, but also to supervise whether the punishment has been implemented after the case is judged.

Luo Qiyi gushed endlessly, implying that the exiled prisoners who were sent to Yunnan were all severely interrogated! Death row prisoners have to be beheaded after the autumn, in case they live past the autumn in a daze when they are building roads, isn't it cheap to kill the death row prisoners!

When Lu Ying heard this, she assured: "Generally, the death row prisoners in the road construction team are doing the most dangerous work, which consumes quickly, and they will die within three months, and it will not be after autumn." ”

Since ancient times, building roads and embankments to open mines is the three major items of the dead, Lu Ying has a lot of projects within the three major items, Liu Ziyan came over this time, and also asked her if she could buy prisoners from Huxiang Huguang to open a mine, Lu Ying allocated to her people are almost dead, and some dangerous mines are not suitable for good families.

Luo Qiyi froze for a moment, and was about to say something more, but Second Master Luo pulled him behind him, and stepped forward to finalize the business of buying people with Lu Ying.

There are two main places of exile in the Yu Dynasty, one is the battlefield in the north, and the other is Yunnan Road in the southwest, both of which have the responsibility of fighting against foreign enemies.

Liangguang, which used to be a place of exile, now has a harbor business to make money, while Qiongya Island is protected by the rain god and has actually been ceded to the Lu family, which is no longer a desolate and bitter place for the exiled prisoners, and has no deterrent effect.

And the Luo family's attitude towards the prisoners is that it doesn't matter, they don't need the prisoners to repair the road (they can't afford to pay for the road at all), these thieves are sent to the battlefield and have to supervise the team to hold the sword, no different from the rest of the soldiers, it is better to sell it to Lu Ying as a personal favor and exchange for some more useful resources to go home.

After talking about this matter, all the death row prisoners and exile prisoners in Yunnan Province were covered by Lu Ying, and when Second Master Luo received the grain, oil, rice and noodles he bought from the Lu family, he had to go back and count how many prisoners there were in the family.

Lu Ying specially advised: "My family wants to be a real criminal, and I am not allowed to be temporarily arrested and bluffed." ”

Second Master Luo patted his chest and packed the ticket: "Don't worry, there is nothing else with our surname Luo, the righteous trachea to protect the family and defend the country is enough, and the business given is absolutely genuine, and it is never shoddy."

Target. ”

Luo Qiyi squinted at the second uncle, how is shoddy used?

Then Lu Ying changed the topic again: "Speaking of which, I still have one more matter, and I want Toluo Gongzi to help me." ”

Rocky Yi was curious: "What's the matter?" ”

They are all children, and the Luo family came over to deepen their friendship with the Lu family, Lu Ying has something to ask, regardless of big and small things, and also took the olive branch that the Luo family wants to make friends (if you don't make friends, you will only be clear, and you won't leave room for favors), Luo Qiyi is just a bit of a nerd temperament, it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand here

The Tao of the Head.

Lu Ying said with a smile: "My father is handling a case in West Guangdong Road, this time the Luo family purchased things on Qiongya Island, the Lu family will send a boat to Fangchenggang, West Guangdong Province, so that you can send them back to Yunnan Road, I heard that Luo Gongzi and Fangchenggang Shangguan County Commander are both disciples of Mr. Yao, I want to ask you to send a letter to your father when you pass by there, and then talk to Shangguan County Order, and ask him to take care of your father more." ”

Luo Qiyi studied in a famous academy in the southwest, and the head of the academy was called Yao Manlin, who taught and educated people for more than 20 years, and taught several people to raise people, and he was also regarded as a famous teacher in the south.

Luo Qiyi is still a big deal, it turns out that it is just to send a letter, Lu Ying is really just looking for a random reason to deepen her friendship with the Luo family.

He replied: "This matter is wrapped up in Brother Wei." ”

This self-proclaimed brother made Lu Ying raise her eyebrows, paused, didn't respond, and asked as if unintentionally: "Speaking of which, when did Master Luo go to Caiyun Academy to study, and how many years have you been studying?" ”

Luo Qiyi replied: "I read it at the age of twelve, I studied it for six years, and under the teaching of Master Yao, I have passed the examination for showing talent and lifting people. ”

Lu Ying: "The exam will be completed in six years?" Isn't that Luo Gongzi very busy, and he doesn't even have time to say goodbye? ”

Luo Qiyi smiled freely: "A man should make a career first, and then think about the family, I will make my own achievements, and if I want to marry a wife in the future, I will not be wronged by the woman." ”

Lu Ying is more satisfied, Luo Qiyi did not say kiss, and has lived in the academy since he was twelve years old, and it is estimated that he has not done the set of room maids (to be investigated), which can be regarded as innocent, after knowing that his biological father was unfaithful, he pondered to find a man who is still chaste for his mother, and the age is also appropriate, exactly eighteen, a white radish with water and spirit, it doesn't matter if he is eight years younger than his mother, male Xiaoba, hugging Jinshan.

Lu Ying said to Second Master Luo again: "How many prisoners are there, please report the number of them as soon as possible, and I will prepare to buy people's money and food." ”

Second Master Luo: "Okay, by the way, Lu Xiaogongzi, our family Qiyi has a younger sister, about three years older than you, who has always wanted to see the sea, and this time we came here to buy real estate, so that we can take the children out to play in the future......"

The meaning of this is that if Lu Ying is interested, she can directly tell her that there is no need to buy a house outside, and the lady of the Luo family can live directly in the Lu family when she comes.

Lu Ying replied: "I will order someone to take two of them to the county government to see the house, but unfortunately Lu Ying is weak and can't take the two of them personally, so I hope to bear with me." ”

The meaning of the villain is that he is not in good health, and he has no intention of marrying the Luo family.

Lu Ying's response in this matter was tactful and sincere, he was really not in good health, maybe he would be gone one day, in order not to make a girl he had never met look at at a young age, he did not think about marriage before the age of eighteen.

Qiu Yu admonished him that a person must be eighteen years old to be considered an adult, and his physical condition is relatively mature and stable, and that it is the right time to get married, and it will be healthier to have children, so please raise the marriage age of young men and women on the island, at least the government should make this example and reduce child marriage.

Lu Ying is eager for the population, but he also values human life, so he also listened to Qiu Yu's persuasion, and raised the woman's marriage age to sixteen years old, and the standard of eighteen years old really can't be raised, because if some standards are too high, the people will directly abandon the treatment, the government says the government, and the people do the people.

Anyway, no one put the marriage on the table, after Lu Ying accurately predicted the rain, Luo Erye felt that there was something strange about this child, people will always subconsciously find reasons for each other in the face of strong people, and dare not have any dissatisfaction, after Lu Ying refused, Luo Erye also felt that Lu Ying gave face, so he didn't say anything more.

Sending them away, Lu Ying exhaled, picked up a fragrant pear cake and put it in her mouth, thinking that she didn't know if her mother could look down on Luo Qiyi, in case she didn't like this type, he would have to find other types of men next time, after all, Lu Xiaoxuan had to be willing to fill the house, if she really didn't want to marry again, if she bought an outer room, Lu Ying still had to consider the identity of the person she looked at, and it was easy to do it if she had a low status, if it was a high status, she was unwilling to be a small one, and she had to clean up in advance.

The villain's family is also heartbroken for his mother.

Feixue, the eldest girl with the highest status in the house and in charge of the treasury, said quietly: "Young Master Sun, what if the young master notices what you mean and is really angry?" ”

Lu Ying's idea of finding a second spring for his mother was not only known to Qiu Yu, but also his closest servants, and his closest servants also noticed a little, plus he looked at Luo Qiyi's gaze unabashedly, and those with long eyes were all meaningful.

Lu Ying paused, and said lightly: "Let Lanshan practice light skills well." ”

This means that if Lu Xiaoxuan wants to go home and beat him, he will run on Lanshan, right? The servants in the house were shocked.

Lan Shan, who was named, was speechless for a long time, and said sadly: "My subordinates will start practicing weight running tonight. ”

The words of this hopeless servant added a few more pairs of dead fish eyes to the house.

Lanshan, it's because you help the mischief every day, and the master kills people, and you carry a knife, so that Young Master Sun is more and more able to make trouble!

Feixue's eyes were more painful than Lanshan's tone when she looked at Lan Shan, can you kid not be so fast, so persuade a few words!

Arashiyama looked back: I don't dare to persuade.

The other people in the room sighed in their hearts: This guy only has the qualifications to be a minister in his life.

At night, Lu Ying wrote a letter to Qiu Yu and told her about the marriage.

Brother Qiu Yu Zhan Xin'an

Ying Yu Qiongya presides over government affairs, busy affairs, I don't know how Brother Yu is at sea, business can be prosperous, I listened to Brother Yu's suggestion, increase investment in Ciyutang, although the cost is large, but it is also a gain, especially to discover a group of capable officials such as Tao Mama and Yang Langlang, it is very easy to use......

Lu Ying's letter is not many words, only talks about the recent experience, the aftermath of some government affairs, and cares about whether Qiu Yu is healthy, whether the coconut oil and soap business is going well, and finally said that the Luo family asked for marriage but he politely refused, and then said that Luo Qiyi's character and appearance and good birth.

When Qiu Yu received this letter, he spewed it out directly, and he held his forehead and sighed: "Save your life, this kid hasn't given up being a matchmaker for Aunt Lu yet?" I've even thought about good birth, oh my God. ”

The kid even figured out how to run away when he was beaten on the ass by his own mother afterwards, and Arashiyama, who he regarded as his mount when he escaped, probably had already started to practice speed.

Qiu Yu, who already knew Brother Ying's personality very well, rubbed her temples, thinking that Lu Ying might not be the only one mount, and the Lu family's light skills were all included in the preliminary list by him.

Don't look at Lu Ying's use of people as mounts, it seems that he oppresses other human beings, but everyone regards Lu Ying as a god, and contact with him is about the same as rubbing the immortal spirit, and there are many people who are willing to help him.

As for waiting for Yingying to grow up and then use him as a mount, I don't know who took advantage.

At present, 90% of all human beings are underfed, clothed, and warm, in poor oral condition, and in poor skin condition, as far as the treatment is abandoned, as a level of Heli Guifei, it is suspected that Lu Ying, who can evaluate Zhou grass in modern times, is probably the ball grass of the fourteenth century.

Thinking of the peerless beauty she had seen in her dreams, but she couldn't remember it clearly after waking up, and she could only vaguely see her peerless figure, Qiu Yu added in her heart that she was still a ball grass with a height of 1.88 meters and a high probability of a supermodel-level figure.

After the Yu Dynasty unified the world, it was the top power on the earth in the fourteenth century, and Qin Zhanying, as the ruler of this country, was also the top three on the earth in the fourteenth century (it is not an exaggeration to say that the first was the first).

Qiu Yu put her hands on her cheeks: "I'm really curious about what kind of god person can marry Yingying in the future." ”
