The fool suddenly stopped and looked at him, then shook his head and said, "I don't have a name."

"Then you will be called dumb from now on, and I will take you in."

Dumb heard that someone took him in and gave him a name, and immediately danced happily, "Hello, Dumb, I will have a name in the future, and I will be Dumb, and Dumb will be me!"

Seeing his happy look, Li Wei felt happy and felt sad for him. Seeing that he looked not bad, but his whole body was dirty, he decided to take Dumb to buy some clothes.

When I came to the clothes shop, the waiter at the door saw Ah-Dai entering the store after Li Wei, and immediately reached out to stop Ah-Dai, "What do you think this is? Go to another place for food."

Duan had obviously encountered such a cold look before, he stood timidly at the door, Li Wei saw it and said to the waiter, "This is my man, I brought him here to buy clothes, you let him in."

Unexpectedly, Xiao Er is not good at it, "Our store still has business, if you bring such a dirty and smelly person, who will dare to come to our store in the future? Besides, what can a beggar have to wear, isn't it a waste of money?"

As soon as these words were said, Li Wei was directly annoyed, "Say it again, what's wrong with the beggar? You look down on it or something, I said it all, he is mine now, if you don't let him in, I will kill you This store is smashed!"

"Guest officer, don't threaten me. I'm not afraid. We are in business, and there are regulations at the gate. Beggars and dogs are not allowed to enter. Don't make things difficult for you."

In anger, Li Wei grabbed Xiao Er's collar. Seeing that Li Sanwei was angry, Dumb punched Xiao Er in the face without saying a word. Seeing this, Li Wei couldn't help laughing.

As soon as I brought Dumb back to the gate of Wenyanghou Mansion, a guard hurried over, "There are many dignitaries from the former Tang Dynasty inside, Your Majesty should not go in for the time being."

In order to calm the hearts of the people, after the Great Qin destroyed the Tang Dynasty, they did not start a massacre, so Jinghuai County, the hinterland of the former Tang Kingdom, retained many old people and children. These people have resentment towards the Great Qin in their hearts. Now Li Wei is nominally the son of the Great Qin clan. , after entering, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents.

"A group of trash who eat and wait to die. When Tang Guo was still there, I was not afraid. Now I am afraid of a group of bereaved dogs? What happened?"

"I don't know, I just heard from them that Ma Minjun caused them to pay a large sum of money to ask for an explanation."

"Go, go in and have a look."

As soon as Li Wei entered the mansion, it was because of the attention of the elders and children of the former Tang Dynasty who gathered in the front yard to make trouble, but at this time they were more concerned about their own money, and they directly regarded Li Wei as air.

Knowing that he had made a big mistake, Ma Minjun lowered his head and did not speak. Ma Chuanan cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, I have roughly understood the matter. It is indeed wrong for my daughter to invite you to play polo, but you can't let her bear all the burdens." loss."

"Wen Yanghou, it was your daughter who patted her chest to ensure that she had some inside information. The polo bet was sure to win. We believed her words before taking out the money to bet. Now that we have lost all, if we don't look for her, who will we look for?"

Hearing this, Ma Minjun couldn't help retorting: "Then I led you to win once, why didn't you say that I won the money?"

"shut up!"

After angrily scolding his talkative daughter, Ma Chuanan said helplessly: "Everyone, you have lost so much money, and I can't afford to pay you back. What do you really want? Let's talk about the regulations."

These ex-Tang nobles obviously discussed it long ago, and said directly: "We will not force you to sell Wenyanghou's mansion, even if it is not enough, we will not ask for it anymore."

Chapter 660 Claims

Ma Minjun still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Ma Chuan'an's stern eyes, "Everyone, it's too much, are you trying to make my Wenyang Hou Mansion go bankrupt?"

"If you cause a disaster, you should bear it. Marquis Wenyang has always understood the truth, so he won't mess around this time, right?"

"That is, Marquis Wen Yang of all dynasties were all moral gentlemen, how could Marquis Wen Yang be so messing around?"

"Wen Yanghou, the matter started because of your daughter. No matter what, you, as a father, should bear some responsibility. More or less, you have to take some money."

These nobles from the former Tang Dynasty were also veterans in the officialdom. It seems that there are many ways to run people. After a few words, even Ma Chuan'an's ancestors were incidentally mentioned, which made him unable to refuse.

"What are you doing? What are you making trouble for?"

Seeing Wu Zhendong walking in, the ex-Tang survivors subconsciously shut their mouths.

With their country ruined and their families destroyed, their last dignity is to remember the glory of the past, but in front of Wu Zhendong, the former Tang prince, their honor is not worth mentioning.

Moreover, they were all dignitaries of the former Tang Dynasty who surrendered to the Great Qin Dynasty. After meeting Zhongliang who died in a fierce battle, they didn't have any confidence in their hearts, and felt that they were much shorter than Wu Zhendong.

"Wang... Mr. Wu, I made you laugh."

Remembering that there was a Great Qin Clan next to him, Ma Chuanan had no choice but to change his name.

"Marquis Wen Yang, I also know about this matter, it's not easy to handle."

Hearing Wu Zhendong's words, Ma Chuan'an couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Since it's a gamble, winning or losing depends on God's will, but Ma Minjun took the lead in this matter. Now that he lost all his money, he should or shouldn't be responsible.

"My lord, I am willing to offer some money to compensate, but I have lost all the money in my mansion. The Hou mansion is the ancestral property, if it is sold..."

"Wen Yanghou, don't worry, with me here, I won't embarrass you. If we become a family, I should take care of what Ma Minjun caused."

Wu Zhendong had asked a matchmaker to be a matchmaker before, but Wu Zhendong had been removed from the king by Daqin long ago, and now he is just a commoner with no family property and his character is a bit unbearable.

Seeing that both Wu Zhendong's father and brother died in the national war, Ma Chuan'an could maintain respect for him, but it was absolutely impossible for him to marry his daughter.

The old story was brought up again today, but the situation has reversed. The Hou Mansion is the family property and the last glory of the family. If it is sold, he will have no face to see his ancestors. If he does not sell it, how will this pass today? "Marquis Wen Yang heard that Mrs. Zun is pregnant. You don't think about yourself, you have to think about your family, and you have to think about your soon-to-be-born child."

Ma Minjun's mother died young, and Ma Chuanan remarried, and now his wife is pregnant, so it's impossible for the family to be gone before the child is born, right?

Thinking of this, Ma Chuanan couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and subconsciously looked at Ma Minjun.

"Father, don't marry me!"

"Miss Ma may have misunderstood this king. This king can swear to heaven that if Marquis Wen Yang agrees to such a marriage, he will immediately come forward to help the Hou's mansion through this crisis, and he will treat Miss Ma kindly in the future."

Naturally, Ma Minjun could guess what his father was thinking, stomping his feet in anxiety, and subconsciously looked at Li Wei who had helped him out of the siege twice.

Seeing Ma Minjun's pleading gaze, Li Wei couldn't help but soften in his heart.

Seeing that Ma Chuan'an was about to agree, a burst of laughter suddenly came.

A former Tang Dynasty elder who had no sympathy for the Great Qin clan asked coldly, "What are you laughing at?"

"At that time, the 10,000+ army of the former Tang Dynasty was like a chicken and a dog in front of our Great Qin Tiejun, vulnerable to a single blow. As pointed out by our Great Qin soldiers, there was no place in the former Tang Dynasty that was undefeated, and no place that was not surrendered. Taking the land of the former Tang Dynasty is like picking something out of a bag .”

Such arrogant remarks made the nobles of the former Tang Dynasty feel a strong shame of subjugation in their hearts, and glared at Li Wei.

A former Tang survivor immediately criticized: "Ma Chuan'an! This is the tenant you recruited into the mansion? In order to make money, you really don't want any face!"

Li Wei sneered and said, "Call me if you can. What's the deal with Ma Chuan'an? Do you know why your former Tang Dynasty is such a waste?"

"Why?"

"Because you are not united, as my great Qin Bingfeng pointed out, you are still fighting among yourself and attacking each other. How can you not be defeated, how can you not subjugate the country? Now that the country has been subjugated, you still want dogs to bite dogs. You are really thieves!"

"Nonsense, I, the civil and military forces of the Great Tang Dynasty, are united as one, fighting the enemy wholeheartedly..."

"What did you say? What dynasty and generation is the Great Tang you are talking about? Dedicated to fighting the enemy? Who is the 'enemy' you are fighting against?"

As soon as Li Wei finished speaking, Li Renhe and more than 20 people around him drew their knives. Seeing this situation, the old Tang Dynasty survivor who made the most trouble broke out in a cold sweat.

Now it is the world of Daqin, they usually scold the idle streets behind their backs, but now they say these things in front of the Daqin clan, at least they are resentful, at worst, they are dissatisfied with the rule of Daqin and intend to revive country.

"Why don't you talk anymore? Didn't you have a lot to say just now? Come on, come on, you answer my previous question, but don't answer? Then you answer, you, you, and you, answer all of them."

As long as Li Wei points it out, no matter who it is, they will back away in a hurry. The nobles of the former Tang Dynasty who were aggressive just now are like chickens waiting to be slaughtered, trembling, and dare not say a word.

"I, I, I didn't mean that."

"Then what do you mean? The atmosphere here is not good, you don't want to talk about it, no problem, go to the county guard's mansion and talk about it."

"Just go, do you think we will be afraid?"

Wu Zhendong roared directly.

"In Jinghuai County, there are quite a few nobles from the former Tang Dynasty. Can you still arrest them all? You are just a family member who came here to play. Do you have such a great ability? Even if you have this ability, if we start a fight, Jing Wai County is bound to be in chaos, will the local officials let you run amok?"

After hearing Wu Zhendong's words, all the nobles instantly regained their confidence. Most of them have been officials, so they naturally know that what officials are most afraid of is civil unrest under their own rule. No matter what the cause is, as long as it occurs, the officials will be held accountable .

The light ones will be thrown out of office, and the serious ones will be executed all over the house. The officials of Jinghuai County will definitely be the first to stand up and stop them.

With the support of other former Tang dignitaries, Wu Zhendong is even more proud, and seems to have restored the honor of the former Tang prince.

"If you have the ability, you can arrest people. Arrest me first, but I want to remind you in advance that it is easy to arrest me, but it is difficult to let me out of prison."

"Well said! This old man is sixty-four this year, he has already lived enough, catch me too!"

"count me in!"

"We all share weal and woe, and everyone who has the ability is caught! Come on, if I frown, I will take your surname!"

Looking at the betrothed nobles, Ma Minjun's face was pale, even Li Wei was useless, he might really be betrothed to Ma Chuan'an today.

Thinking of this, Ma Minjun closed his eyes in despair, as if he had accepted his fate, but Li Wei didn't care about their threats, "You are right, I don't have any great skills, but I am a son of the clan, and I have the right to go to the emperor, so I don't care about it." Need to say more, just talk about the rampant remnant forces of the former Tang Dynasty in Jinghuai County.

Of course, I will go to the sheriff to talk to the sheriff before I play it. Haha, what do you think the sheriff will do? "

As soon as the words fell, the expression on Wu Zhendong's face immediately froze. In order to appease the people of the former Tang Dynasty, Daqin gave preferential treatment to the dignitaries of the former Tang Dynasty. On the surface, hello to me, big guy, but they knew it in their hearts. The imperial court didn't trust them at all, and even the great Qin dignitaries didn't like them.

Once the news is sent back to Chang'an, the imperial court may directly issue an imperial edict, and the county guards may all be punished.

Wu Zhendong gritted his teeth and said, "I...preferential treatment to us is the promise of the late Emperor Qin! Even if the emperor is here, he will not be too harsh on us!"

"You're right. You can't disobey the late emperor's will, and the emperor won't make things difficult for you, but will the great Qin dignitaries be polite to you? A group of old people from the former dynasty still occupy precious titles and occupy the land and property. If you are swept away Once empty, how many resources can be freed up to distribute to the dignitaries of Daqin?"

As former dignitaries, they know the virtues of this class too well. Not to mention the dignitaries of the Great Qin Dynasty, even the officials in Jinghuai County often look at them with envy and covet their property.

If there is a riot, with the acquiescence of the Great Qin Emperor and the promotion of the high-level dignitaries, the county officials will never be polite to them. Even if a civil uprising is really stirred up, it will turn into a rebellion for the restoration of the country. The county guards wiped them out.

Seeing that all these guys shut up, Li Wei asked coldly: "Have you lived enough, are you not afraid of being caught? Old man, why are you pretending to be brave? If you really have backbone, why didn't you die for the country when the Tang Dynasty fell? With you, I am the clan. You want to have my surname, and you want to be my relative of the Great Qin Emperor. Isn’t it too shameless? What’s the matter, you can’t go on with your life anymore, and you want to go to prison and rub against my Daqin’s prison ?Okay, anyone who wants to go, write down a name, I will help you, anyone, sign up! I am a policeman of Dali Temple, and it is also my job to investigate treason, so I just sorted out a list of treason to repay your kindness. "

Li Renhe flashed the steel knife in his hand, and said with a sneer, "It's not enough just to sign up, let's make a finger print by the way, there is no ink pad, and one person makes a cut with his finger."

"I, I... Oh, I'm old and useless. The pain in my stomach is unbearable. I'm going to see the doctor, so I'm leaving."

"I still have something urgent at home, so I'm leaving first."

"We'll talk about the money later, it's not over yet."

Li Wei was right, they didn't have the guts to resist Daqin Wangfa at all, and when they raised the word "rebellion", they were so scared that they couldn't stand still, and they left one after another without being chased away.

Wu Zhendong, who lost everyone's support, shrank his neck in fright when he saw Li Wei's malicious gaze, "You are arrogant and domineering, you will pay the price for your actions, Marquis Wen Yang, be careful with this guy, I, I will leave first Already!"

After successfully surviving this catastrophe, Ma Minjun excitedly ran to Li Wei's side, and when he was about to speak, he heard Ma Chuanan's cold reprimand.

"return!"

"Father, he can help..."

"I'll let you come back! People are poor and have a lot of ambition, and the mud legs in the country know the truth, don't you understand? It's a waste of reading sage books, I don't need his help, I'm going to find someone now, sell Wenyanghou's mansion, Give the money back to other people."

Chapter 661

Li Wei stood up for himself in front of so many people, Ma Chuanan didn't have any gratitude in his heart, only a deep sense of shame.

"Father, the Hou Mansion cannot be sold!"

"Thanks to your friend's help, if you don't sell it, you have to sell it. Do you want the descendants of my Ma family to never lift their heads?"

Ma Minjun also knew what his father was thinking, bit his lip and said? "My daughter is willing to marry Wu Zhendong."

"You... I've suffered for you."

"Why is it so hard? Ma Minjun is also a victim of this matter. As a father, you sell your daughter if you don't give your daughter a head? Is this your way of being a father?"

"My housework has nothing to do with you!"

"What I look down on is people like you. What kind of loyal minister do you pretend to be? If you were really a loyal minister of the former Tang Dynasty, why didn't you die on the battlefield? The former Tang Dynasty was destroyed, why didn't you commit suicide and die for the country? You have no kind, so follow the example of Uncle Boyi After the death of Qi Yushang, he died without eating Zhou millet, which is considered your loyalty.

What about you?After accepting my Great Qin's consolation, don't forget that the titles of the former Tang Dynasty were all abolished by my Great Qin. Your current Marquis of Wenyang was bestowed on you by my Great Qin. Daqin's title and salary, but he always thinks about the goodness of the former Tang Dynasty. What is the difference between the three surnames? "

Hearing Li Wei's words, Ma Chuan'an almost vomited blood, but he couldn't refute, after all, what Li Wei said was the truth.

He is afraid of death, and he doesn't want to die, he can't die for his country, he wants to live but he doesn't have the skills to survive, he can't let go of his body to do business and farm, so he can only continue to be a marquis, but he can't forget the kindness of the former Tang Dynasty in his heart. Can not think about these.

The topic that has been avoided all the time was brought out by Li Wei without any concealment, and Ma Chuanan's face was flushed with anger, but Dui, who had been playing with ants when he walked in, stopped what he was doing, and looked at Li Wei with great interest.

"Stop talking... I agreed to marry."

"I don't care if you marry or not, but I can't ignore the fraud case in Jinghuai County."

Ma Minjun hurriedly said: "What kind of fraud case? I was thinking that everyone would get rich together and collect their labor fees, but I didn't intend to lie to them, so don't talk nonsense!"

"It's not that you are cheating, you are also a victim, and you want to catch the person who cheated you."

"Lied to me?"

"I heard you quarreling just now, and I understand it too. You met a guy in the restaurant who sold inside information and was able to win every bet. Afterwards, he relied on his advice to bet. You won a few times, but the last time you lost it all. ,Yes or no?"

"Yes."

"He's a fraud."

"He shouldn't have lied to me..."

"Catch the person first, and you will know if it is a scam. Lead the way."

Ma Minjun still hasn't figured out what's going on, but he immediately cooperates when he hears that someone can take the blame.

Betting with all his net worth, Ma Minjun actually knew the real name of the other party. Fortunately, there were so many guards in the county, it was a bit difficult to find out about Guiyuandao, but it was not difficult to find someone who often hangs out on the streets.
