One Piece of Song Dynasty

Zhang Hu led the team away, and Li Xin and Liang Hongyu continued to wander around the county town. net

After wandering around for a while, Liang Hongyu said: "The county under the government is really harmonious. Although there are many refugees outside the city, it does not affect the lives of the people in the county. The people's living conditions are also very good, and they smile from time to time. On the face."

Li Xin nodded and said: "Well, after all, XX is also the magistrate of Hui'an County. If he can't let the people of Hui'an live and work in peace and contentment, doesn't it mean that XX, the magistrate of Hui'an, is incompetent? Making the people under his rule live and work in peace and contentment is the best achievement of our office."

Liang Hongyu said: "The official said it was really good, and of course he did a good job."

The two walked around for a while, and Li Xin said: "It's almost done. Let's go back to the house and meet my family."

Liang Hongyu blushed a little and said, "Yeah, okay."

Li Xin smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, X's parents are no longer alive. The closest relatives in the family are the old housekeeper Li An and his sister Li Jing. X's sister is not easy to manage. Madam, I will have to worry more about it in the future."

Liang Hongyu nodded and said: "Yes, officer, the slave family will definitely handle the relationship with my sister-in-law."

Since the Fangla Uprising began, Li Xin had sent the housekeeper to the area at the junction of Liangzhe Road and Fujian Road to recruit refugees. It was not until Hangzhou was recaptured by the government troops and the rebellion was over that Li Xin recalled the housekeeper. 35xs

After the two returned home, they first went to find the housekeeper Li An. Li Xin took Liang Hongyu to the housekeeper's study. Li Xin knocked on the door and asked, "Is Uncle An here?"

After waiting for a while for everyone to respond, Li Xin said: "Uncle An may have something to do and he hasn't come back yet. Madam, let's go and see X's sister first."

Liang Hongyu nodded and said: "Okay, officer, let's go."

Just as the two were about to go find Li Xin's sister, they met the housekeeper coming back. Li Xin shouted: "Uncle An, what are you doing?"

When the housekeeper saw Li Xin and the two of them, he said, "Mr. Sir, a certain family has just returned from an inspection of the granary in the house. Who is this girl?"

Li Xin introduced: "Oh, Uncle An, this girl's name is Liang Hongyu, and she will be my wife from now on."

The butler hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists and said, "I have seen Madam."

Liang Hongyu nodded and said: "Hello, Uncle An. Hongyu has just arrived and is not very familiar with the house. Please take care of Uncle An in the future."

The housekeeper said: "Yes, madam. If you have any questions, please come to a certain house."

Li Xin asked: "Since Uncle An went to inspect the granary, what did he find?"

The housekeeper frowned and said: "There are indeed some discoveries, but..."

Liang Hongyu then said: "Officials, you guys talk first, I'll go look elsewhere. 35xs"

Li Xin nodded and said: "Okay, madam, go ahead first. I will go find madam after talking to the housekeeper."

After Liang Hongyu left, the housekeeper said, "Lang Jun, let's go into the house and talk."

Li Xin replied: "Okay, let's go into the room and talk."

After the two entered the house, Li Xin first said: "Uncle An, does he have any doubts about Hongyu's identity?"

The housekeeper nodded and said: "Yes, Lang Jun, do you know how big our family's fortune is now? It is tens of thousands of times stronger than when the master was alive. A certain family knows that these are the achievements of Lang Jun, but a certain family doesn't I hope that this family will eventually fall into the hands of the husband. The husband casually brings back a strange and beautiful woman and makes her his wife. If this is a honey trap by the enemy, our family will have a lot of enemies now! ”

Li Xin waved her hand and said: "Uncle An is worrying too much. It's my fault that I didn't discuss this matter with Uncle An in advance. However, Hongyu is definitely not an enemy. I can guarantee this. Does Uncle An know why I am out of town?" The first two Tianxiang Towers to be opened will include Huaian."

The housekeeper shook his head and said, "I don't know, maybe it's just for Miss Hongyu?"

Li Xin nodded and said: "It was for Miss Hongyu. The first time I met Miss Hongyu was when I traveled to Tokyo for the first time. I passed by Huai'an and met Miss Hongyu. Ever since I saw her, I I never forgot her, and later I found out through inquiry that Miss Hongyu was the daughter of General Liang of the Huai'an Navy of the imperial court. At that time, we were just small landowners with no status. Going to propose marriage rashly was tantamount to humiliating ourselves. People would definitely look at her. No, so after I came back that time, I decided to drive Tianxiang Tower to Huai'an, get close to the Liang family through Tianxiang Tower, and inquire about all the news related to the Liang family."

The housekeeper said: "At that time, a certain family was wondering why the husband put the Tianxiang Tower in Huai'an instead of other more affluent places. It turned out to be this reason. Then the husband refused to open the Tianxiang Tower to Liangzhe Road. Is it also wrong? Did you get the news about the peasant riots on Liangzhe Road in advance?"

Li Xin hurriedly waved his hands and said: "That's not true. I was just passing by the southeast and saw that the court was doing misery to the people in the southeast. Many of them could no longer survive, so I felt that it was unsafe to drive Tianxiang Tower to Liangzhe Road. If a riot breaks out, our family will lose everything." How could Li Xin admit such a thing as a joke? If others knew that Li Xin knew the news in advance, there would be a big problem.

The housekeeper asked again: "Then why doesn't the gentleman open a Tianxiang Restaurant in every state capital north of the Yangtze River? There are only a few Tianxiang Restaurants in every state capital in the south of the Yangtze River."

Li Xin said thoughtfully: "Our home is in Jiangnan, and it is close to various places in Jiangnan. Let's open up all the places in Jiangnan first. By the way, after the peasant riots are over, Uncle An will open the two Zhejiang roads. Let’s add all the Tianxiang Towers, as well as shops. In the entire Jiangnan and Sichuan areas, wherever there is a Tianxiang Tower, a shop will be opened. The shops will also be managed by the shopkeepers of the Tianxiang Tower in each place."

The housekeeper nodded and said: "Okay, Mr. Lang, I understand, so this time Miss Hongyu came to our house to marry Mr. Jun? If it is to get married, Mr. Jun's marriage must be carefully organized, right? , are the Hongyu girl’s parents here? Has Lang Jun been engaged to the Hongyu girl?”

Li Xin sighed: "Oh, Hongyu girl is indeed here to marry me this time. Hongyu girl will not leave after coming this time, but her parents and brothers are not here."

The housekeeper was surprised and asked: "Oh, why is that? Don't they agree with the marriage between Mr. Lang and Miss Hongyu?"

Li Xin waved his hand and said: "It's not that they disagree, but they can't come. Miss Hongyu's father and brother are both generals of the Huai'an Navy of the imperial court. During the peasant riot, they were both beheaded by the imperial court for suppressing the rebel army and wasting the opportunity to fight. Since then, the Liang family has been ruined. Girl Hongyu’s mother also committed suicide. The whole family fled to death. Girl Hongyu was originally sent to the Jiaofang Division in the capital by the imperial court. After I got the news, I reported it to the police in Tokyo. Gao Ping sent a message and asked him to take two thousand taels of gold to Taishi Cai's house and through Taishi Cai, he rescued Miss Hongyu. Now in the entire Liang family, apart from Miss Hongyu, there is only one younger brother who escaped from studying abroad. I haven't found her brother yet."
