Quick travel: I am bound by the longevity system
Chapter 253 Leading the tribe to survive in troubled times 16
Yang took Lin Jiu's tea, took a sip and placed it on the small table nearby. The maid behind her placed a jade walking stick prepared by Yang on the tray nearby.
Lin Jiu saluted again to express his gratitude.
"This is the second brother."
"I've met my second brother."
"Brothers and sisters don't need to be polite, they will be a family from now on."
Lin Jiu nodded.
Then he met the third young master Qi Mingyang, the fourth young master Qi Mingsheng and the fifth young master Qi Mingyi. Naturally, I also received a lot of greeting gifts.
After acknowledging the kiss, the meal began to be served.
Qi Xiuwen was a military commander and did not have so many rules. In addition, this was a family banquet, so men and women were not separated into separate tables. Lin Jiu did not have a mother-in-law, so there was no need for her to serve.
This time Qi Mingjing got married, Qi Mingsheng and the others all rushed back from Youzhou, Zhuozhou and other places. Now that the wedding is over, they have to rush back. Although the Liao people are much more honest now, there has been a drought since the beginning of this spring. In addition, the Northeast Wanyanda in the direction is also not honest. If the drought continues, there is no guarantee that the Liao and Wanyanda will not unite and go south.
"Mingjing, why haven't you seen your sisters-in-law?" Lin Jiu asked in a low voice after returning to the yard. Lin Jiu could understand that Qi Xiuwen's wife and eldest son were in the capital as hostages. After all, the most important thing in a family is the eldest son.
But Qi Mingjing's other brothers' wives and sons were not around, so something was wrong.
"Several sisters-in-law and nephews are in Beijing to honor their mother."
Lin Jiu understood that the so-called filial piety was just a way of saying it to the outside world. He was afraid that they would all be detained in the capital to contain the Qi family army. It seemed that the dog emperor was more wary of the generals than imagined.
"Then after I get married to you, will I also go to the capital?"
"Even if I have to go to the capital, I will go with you. Don't worry, I won't let you fall into the center of the whirlpool alone."
"Well, I believe you."
After returning home on the third day of their wedding, Qi Mingjing and Lin Jiu returned to Linjia Village early in the morning with the gifts prepared by Mrs. Side.
As soon as they entered the village, Qi Mingjing was taken away by Lin Boda and the others, and Lin Jiu also went back to the room with Lin's mother.
Lin Jiu's room is still the same as when she was not married.
"Jiu'er, are you still used to it?"
"Mom, Mingjing is very kind to me, and my uncle and father are also very kind. Don't worry."
"Seeing that you are living a good life, I feel relieved. However, this woman is no better married than at home. You should be more restrained and discuss everything with your uncle." Mother Lin held Lin Jiu's hand and said.
Lin Jiu just nodded and said nothing.
The two of them returned to Qi Mansion in the afternoon.
The next day, Qi Mingjing took Lin Jiu to his new guard station. As soon as they left, Zhao Qian and the others arrived at Zhending Mansion.
Zhao Qian and his group have Qi Xiuwen and his military advisors to deal with it. Lin Jiu and Qi Mingjing only need to train soldiers and lead nearby soldiers and civilians to open up wasteland.
After Zhao Qian came to Zhending Mansion, he asked the government to convey the intention of the draft. However, Qi Xiuwen had already asked people to tell the truth about the draft. Therefore, before Zhao Qian and his group came to Zhending Mansion, many families with daughters had When a daughter gets married, even if she can't find a suitable match for a while, she hides her daughter and just waits for this storm to pass.
There are parents who love their daughters, and there are also parents and families who use their daughters as trading tools.
Because if you give a beautiful girl, you can receive ten taels of silver. As soon as this announcement came out, some families took their daughters to the yamen and exchanged them for ten taels of silver before going back happily.
"Qi Mingjing, I heard that the drought is severe in Longnan and Tongguan, and all the wheat has died, and there are floods in the two lakes, the rice fields are damaged, and the plague is rampant. But the court does not think about disaster relief, but instead recruits people. The officials in Beijing are extravagant. Such a court Do we really have to maintain it?”
In the past few days, the money Zhao Qian had scattered could save many people. Thinking of the people who were still in dire straits, Lin Jiu felt even more disgusted with the current court.
"Ajiu, I know you are dissatisfied with the court." Qi Mingjing held Lin Jiu's hand, "I am dissatisfied too, but now we are still facing threats from Liao people, Jurchens and Dangxiang people, as well as aunts and elder brothers and sisters-in-law. My nephew and the others are also in the capital now as hostages, we cannot act rashly."
Qi Mingjing knew that Lin Jiu had never been a rule-abiding person. If the court was unruly, she would really rebel.
"Then let's go to Beijing and rescue our aunt, sister-in-law, and nephews. As long as we rescue them, the court will have nothing to do with us."
"Going to Beijing?"
"Yes, let's go to the capital." Lin Jiu looked at Qi Mingjing, "You and I have just gotten married, so naturally we should go back to the capital to meet the mistress. Besides, the news about your destined marriage has been widely spread before, and those people in the capital must be very fond of you and me. Curious. I think someone in the palace must also want us to come to Beijing."
Xiping County Government
"Sir, all the household registrations in Xiping County are here." The county magistrate handed the household registration book to Zhao Qian.
"That's all?" Zhao Qian looked at the thin booklet in front of him dissatisfied.
"Sir, that's all the national registration. Xiping County is close to Xixia and has been in war for a long time. The original population is not large. In addition, last year, the officials assigned the fourth level of civil registration to the military registration. There is not such a thin amount of national registration left. A volume." The county magistrate looked at Zhao Qian and considered his answer.
"Where is the military register? Bring the general register to this officer."
"Sir, the military register is kept by the Qi Family Army, and the county government has no right to view it."
Zhao Qian's face turned ugly for a while. "I want to ask you if there is anyone named Lin Mao in Linjia Village."
"Sir, Linjia Village is now classified as military. I don't know who is in the village."
"Then you clean up and follow me to Linjia Village to find someone. When I came here, the prime minister told me that we must find the person named Lin Mao."
"Yes, let's go to Xiaguan to make arrangements right away." The county magistrate left Zhao Qian's residence, and then went to the nephew of the policeman who was on duty at the county government office. Linjia Village is looking for a man named Lin Mao."
"Second uncle, don't worry. I'll go find the sixth young master right away." Li Mulang was secretly shocked after hearing this. His second uncle might not know who Lin Mao was, but he knew very well that the person his friend Lin Jing admired most was the elder brother. There is a word "Mao" in the name.
And what a coincidence, this man is the father of the new lady.
Li Mulang did not dare to delay and went directly to the guardhouse to tell Qi Mingjing about the matter.
"What is Zhao Qian or Lin Jida doing with my father?" Lin Jiu looked at Qi Mingjing with some confusion after receiving the news.
"Probably because he wants to recognize your father." Qi Mingjing looked at Lin Jiu and said, "After Lin Jida married Princess Duanyang, he only gave birth to two daughters in these years. Lin Jida has always wanted a son in these years. Previously, because of Princess Duanyang He didn't dare to think about it while he was alive, but after Princess Duanyang died, Lin Jida took in several concubines, but no one in the backyard was pregnant. It turned out that Princess Duanyang had given Lin Jida the infertility medicine when her little daughter was born. "
