virtuous king

Chapter 31

The winter snow has just melted, the sky is freezing cold, and the strong wind is blowing past the ear, crying and howling, blowing down a chaotic cloud.

Yes, it's bleak enough, bleak enough, and it's just the right weather for raiding the house.

I sat in the sedan chair with my arms around Liu Yanqing, He Yunli followed on the left, and Zhou Quan walked on the right. Behind the sedan chair, two rows of armored and spear-wearing soldiers walked in square steps. Very full.

I opened the curtain and looked out, and saw that the people on the side of the road stretched their necks to look into the sedan chair, some of them met my eyes from a distance, turned pale, turned around and ran away: "It's terrible! Terrible! King Qi went out to commit crimes again—"

I tried to give them a friendly smile, but just half-closed my eyes, before I could raise the corners of my mouth, I heard a few beggars gathered together whispering in my ears.This one said: "The market is open, the market is open, ten coins, I bet the king of Qi will go out this time to rob someone!" The other said: "I don't think so, I'll pay twenty coins! Just look at the battle today, maybe Set fire to it!"

As soon as the words were finished, there was a crackling sound of a string of copper coins colliding, which made my heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys ache everywhere.I put down the curtain very dejectedly, turned my head and complained to Liu Yanqing: "No wonder it is difficult for prisoners to correct themselves after they are released from prison. They are discriminated against everywhere, how can they correct themselves?"

Liu Yanqing glanced at me, dozed off on the soft cushion with his chin propped on one hand, and said with a strong nasal voice: "Who told you to make the battle so big, you still have to mobilize troops, you can bring some yamen servants." Is it gone?"

I said with a bitter face: "Isn't it because I'm afraid that there will be fewer people and I won't be able to control the scene?"

Liu Yanqing sneered, looked at me with half-closed eyes and said: "What are you afraid of, notoriety has its benefits, and the words King Qi are placed here, and the emperor has to be courteous. I'm afraid I can't hold back a few Trouble?"

I thought about it, and felt that what Liu Yanqing said was reasonable, so I nodded and said, "That's right...wait a minute, are you praising me, or are you hurting me?"

I didn't hear what Liu Yanqing answered, because my sedan chair shook and I was stopped.

The one who stopped me was the caretaker of Boss Li's house who took the lead in making trouble earlier. This boy has a pretty face, and he is bowing to me with a smile at the moment, and his appearance looks very pleasing to the eye.The young man said: "Your Highness, forgive me. My boss happened to be out collecting rent and couldn't entertain His Highness. To express my apology, my boss has prepared some small profits for Your Highness. Here is the gift list. Please take a look at it, Your Highness. Is it still in your favor? "

I listened to the servant shouting in the sedan chair, and reached out to take the gift list handed over by Zhou Quan with a livid face. After a quick glance, I saw that gold and silver were all available, and the end page was emphatically marked with Loulan Moyu fish pattern in large letters. A pair, straight happy.

Good guy, I don't have money to lend to the imperial court, but I have money to give me gifts.

I didn't get out of the sedan chair, and pointed at the gift list, tilted my head and whispered to Liu Yanqing, "I'll keep the fish pattern pendant for you, and the rest will be confiscated."

Liu Yanqing twitched the corners of his mouth a few times, snatched the gift slip from me and handed it back to Zhou Quan, and said softly, "Master Zhou, confiscate all these things."

As soon as Liu Yanqing finished speaking, the way I looked at Zhou Quan seemed even more indescribable.

I was a little disappointed that the token of love I was looking for was not delivered, and my disappointment made me easy to get angry, so I leaned back like a master under the eager attention of everyone, and said in a strange way: "Just this little thing? "

The servant is probably someone who has seen the world, he frowned slightly after hearing what I said, and asked tentatively: "Your Highness, do you feel that something is missing?"

I said, "It's a lot less."

The little servant flattered and said, "Then, Your Highness, please report the number, and I will go back and discuss with the boss."

I stretched out a finger and said slowly: "Not many, I only want one Li family."

The boy was choked by my words for a long time and didn't catch his breath. He opened his mouth for a while, and finally he was not so calm: "Boss, come out quickly, the little one doesn't do this job— —”

The melodious baritone suddenly turned into a rooster crowing, completely damaging the ears.

I waited for him to finish yelling, and then I put down my hand covering Liu Yanqing's ears, got out of the sedan chair and said to the people behind me: "What are you waiting for? Go in and move it for me!"

The two teams of small soldiers were very efficient. After listening to my orders, they rushed into Li's mansion like robbers. Within half an hour, they brought gold, silver, antiques, treasured calligraphy and paintings, and "Boss Li who went out to collect rent" with him. The one wife and three concubines he married were all brought out without any hesitation.

With my hands behind my back, I lowered my head and looked at the two rows of people kneeling at my feet from front to back, and from back to front, and said with a smile, "Boss Li, didn't you go out to collect rent?"

The person surnamed Li probably didn't expect that I would come for real. He had already shaken his hands like a sieve, and couldn't hold back his temper at all.On the contrary, his big family is quite dignified. Hearing my question, he said boldly and sternly: "Dare to ask Your Highness, what crime did the grassroots commit, so that they should be punished so severely by ransacking their homes? Your Highness shouldn't be so contemptuous of the king's law! In any case, His Highness must give the grassroots an explanation today, otherwise, even if the grassroots go to the capital, they will cause some trouble to His Highness, and everyone will feel uncomfortable together!"

Threats and lures are combined, and the order is very clear. It can't be seen that this girl is actually a talent who is stable in times of crisis. It's a pity that she married a philandering radish, and let down her good life for nothing.

"Going to the capital to cause trouble for this king?" I couldn't hold back my laughter, and persuaded her earnestly with a sigh: "Girl, no, no, no, I should call you Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li, do you think this king will Do you care if you go to the capital to make trouble? Take ten thousand steps back, even if you sue the imperial court, are you still pointing at the emperor to punish the king? To tell you the truth, the emperor is as obedient as a rabbit in front of the king, and the rest are even worse. Don’t even dare to fart, Mrs. Li, take it easy, whether you want to admit it or not, judging from the current situation, this king is the king of Great Chu.”

I squatted down and whispered next to Mrs. Li's ear, so no one else could hear me. After I finished these few words, Mrs. Li's face turned from white to red and then to purple. The change was wonderful: " You...you this..."

I stood up, lowered my scalp and said with a smirk: "Although you scold me, you have said everything you need to say, even if the king has wronged you, you can only accept your fate, let alone - this king hasn't wronged you yet! "

Boss Li, who was shaking like a sieve, suddenly stopped shaking, and looked up at me with wide-eyed eyes in disbelief.

I met Boss Li's gaze, reached out and took out a booklet with a note from my pocket, threw it in front of him, and said with a smile: "Boss Li, buying and selling illegal salt is a felony, especially if you are like you." He should be sentenced to death according to the law, so what’s the point of ransacking his house?”

Boss Li spoke again, his voice trembling: "You, you...how did you get these sales certificates? I know...you sewed it into the pillow in the third lady's bedroom, it's safe!"

As soon as Boss Li’s words fell, Liu Yanqing was the first to react. The ancestor first let out a sigh, raised his eyebrows and glanced at me. The pleasant voice turned around and repeated: "Third lady's pillow in the bedroom? No wonder...you disappeared after dinner last night. You sneaked into the married woman's bedroom to dismantle it Pillows."

Oops, now the misunderstanding has exploded.

Yesterday I had dinner, and I went to the corner of the street to ask for help from No. [-] Land while it was dark. No. [-] Land is a man with a sense of justice. When I heard that I wanted to copy Boss Li’s home and build Fuzhou, he didn’t want me. Autographed autograph, and secondly, I didn't pester me to tell me about the romantic affairs between myself and Yaoguang. I didn't say anything, and I went through Li's house from top to bottom overnight, not even letting go of the latrine.

When he was worried that he couldn't find any evidence, Boss Li and Mrs. Li San didn't know what was going on in the middle of the night. He only heard Mrs. Li scolding his mother a few times at the top of his voice, and Boss Li rolled out of the bedroom in embarrassment with his pants in his hands , Immediately afterwards, there was a soft pillow that was viciously smashed out by Mrs. Li San.

At that time, the goose-yellow satin pillow was cut open by the wooden thorns on the door, and it was lying quietly on the ground, and a piece of curled blue cover happened to be exposed in the gap.The land is an easy-to-use god, but I am the only one who opened this cheat.

These things are not easy to explain clearly, I have to wait until the matter is finished, and then explain it to Liu Yanqing in private.

I stood there and waited for a while, until the surrounding people were almost gathered, Fang Qingqing cleared his throat, turned around and said loudly to the people: "Boss Li buys and sells illegal salt, he should be executed according to the law, now This king thinks that he has some repentance, and is willing to donate all his family for disaster relief, and spare the lives of his family, everyone present to be a witness, if he commits the crime again, he will not be lightly forgiven!"

"Those bosses hiding in the crowd, the business in your hands seems to be vague, as if it is not very clean, right? Think it over, should you buy a ticket, or raid the house?"

I could hear the sound of many people gasping for air, one after another, continuously.

After such an incident, the few bosses who insisted yesterday that they had no money at home were all willing to donate generously.Sitting in the grand teacher's chair, I watched Zhou Quan smile and think, I couldn't help but tilt my head and asked: "Master Zhou, this time the money is enough."

Zhou Quan nodded again and again, saying it was enough, and his attitude towards me was much better than the previous two days.

I thought about it, and then asked Ai Ai expectantly: "Since it is enough, can we stop eating bad food and bad food?"

Zhou Quan was taken aback for a moment, and looked at Liu Yanqing as if asking for help, Liu Yanqing got a hint, and immediately turned to look at me with a smile on his face, but it was with a sarcastic smile.

Liu Yanqing said: "Don't be too busy talking about food, if you have this spare time, why don't you tell me carefully about the incident that you ran into Mrs. Li San's bedroom in the middle of the night to disassemble the pillow..."
