Lin Lang, the wood family of the Red Chamber

King Nan'an's eyes were bloodshot, "Stop, stop!"

Tu Yang smiled, "Is the king of Nan'an going to pay in cash?"

King Nan'an looked at Tu Yang's calm look, and was so angry that he vomited blood, "Tu Yang, my king will not let you go!" The king of Nan'an was confused and yelled out.

"Oh, this hall is really scared! Come here! The king of Nan'an threatened the current prince and took him to the prison. This hall will have a good talk with his father when he turns around." Tu Yang picked up the jade hanging around his waist Seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, he waved the side of "Ruzhen in person" on the jade tablet in front of King Nan'an.

"Pfft..." King Nan'an couldn't take it anymore, he spurted a mouthful of blood far away, rolled his eyes, and fell in love with the earth.

Two of Tu Yang's guards came over and dragged King Nan'an away.

Not long after, A and the others came out carrying boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, and the boxes lined up in a row dazzled the eyes.Tu Yang nodded in satisfaction, then turned his head and nodded to a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman, and kindly introduced to everyone, "This is the treasurer Wang of Dongfang Auction House. He can help us estimate the value of any item. .”

"Treasurer Wang, you can start." He signaled shopkeeper Wang to start, but he picked up some interesting things and looked at them: Well, this Ru Kiln Yuhuchun, Master should like it; this jade-carved narcissus must be Dad will like it; well, there is also this one, the tiger carved by Tian Huangshi, which looks like a big flower, I will take it back to Brother Lang later...

At this moment, there was a noise from behind, "Huh? What happened?"

"Fourth Master, is it the old concubine Nan'an who is clamoring to see you?" Xiao Shanzi hurried forward and said.

"Oh? Want to see the main hall? Let her in!"

Soon, the old concubine was brought in front of Tu Yang.Tu Yang glanced at the woman with exquisite makeup in front of him. In the words of the master, she is very good at taking care of herself. She looks almost like the king of Nan'an. If you don't know it, you can't imagine that she has such an old son. .

Concubine Nan'an stood in front of Tu Yang, standing straight, not kneeling down, raising her eyebrows, a little curious.

Seeing his appearance, Xiao Shanzi hurried over and whispered, "Back then, the emperor gave Concubine Nan'an an iron scroll of alchemy, saying that he could see that the emperor would not kneel."

Tu Yang curled his lips, it really was something his imperial grandfather could do. "If you don't kneel, don't kneel. I just don't know why the old concubine would do such a demeaning thing?"

Grand Concubine Nan'an looks like a person who doesn't smile often, with a serious face and no crow's feet. Dare, it's just that I don't understand why Fourth Highness put my son in prison?"

"It's nothing, it's just that the palace is ordered by the emperor to recover the money owed to the treasury. The old concubine should know that it is only right and proper to pay back the debt. Now that the northern border is in an emergency, my father is about to send troops to quell the chaos, but the treasury is empty. , just when a large amount of money was needed, King Nan'an neither paid back the money, but threatened the main hall there.

In today's dynasty, the sage once said that if anyone does not listen to the words of the hall and does not want to pay back the money, the hall can beheaded first and then played.That's right, this hall doesn't want to have any conflicts with the Nan'an Palace as soon as it comes up, so it can only let the Nan'an King be wronged first, and go to the prison for a few days. "Tu Yang said it very sincerely, for a moment Princess Nan'an believed him.

Concubine Nan'an was so angry that she covered her chest, and Tu Yang looked scared, "Xiao Shanzi, please take the old concubine back quickly, if there is any good or bad in a while, the hall will be in big trouble. At that time, Master will definitely You're going to whip me again."

Xiao Shanzi immediately stepped forward and took Princess Nan'an away in a semi-forced manner. After she got out of the front hall, Princess Nan'an finally came to her senses, and immediately burst into tears, completely gone. The demeanor of a concubine, unfortunately, no one cares about her.

When Shopkeeper Wang calculated everything, Tu Yang set off again with the debt collection team that had won the first battle.

After leaving Nan'an Palace, Tu Yang ordered: "Bring all these gold and silver wares back to the Ministry of Accounts for registration, and send antiques, calligraphy and paintings directly to Dongfang Auction House, and send the money back to the Ministry of Accounts. Remember, who If he dares to touch the money, this hall will definitely teach him a lesson he will never forget!"

"Yes!" Tu Yang's guards all agreed happily.

Tu Yang was overjoyed to get such good things for the first time.Under his instruction, Shopkeeper Wang set the price of every item two levels lower than the market price. Most of the money from the sale is from him and today's foreign money. This money is too easy to earn. up!

Tu Yang was happy, waved his hand, and said grandly: "It's exactly noon now, everyone has done a good job today, I invite everyone to have a good meal at Yipinxuan."

"Okay!" Hearing that His Royal Highness was going to treat guests, he immediately cheered, and quickly finished the work in his hands. Seeing their cheerful looks, they seemed to be a little drifting when walking.

When they arrived at Yipinxuan, the shopkeeper hurried forward, "Fourth Master, you are here, Mr. Mu is waiting for you in the private room."

"Oh? I just want to talk to him! I haven't seen him for a few days. By the way, get some delicious food for them, and put them on the signature dishes. The food must be enough, and it will be recorded in the hall account superior."

"Yes." The shopkeeper quickly nodded and bowed down to accept the order.

After giving the order, Tu Yang briskly walked to the private room they reserved for himself.

Pushing open the door, she saw Mu Linlang sitting inside.

"Brother Lang, why did you come here for lunch today?" Brother Lang usually doesn't like eating out.

"I'm here to wait for you." Mu Linlang turned around and saw that it was him, and smiled.

"Wait for me?" Tu Yang took a closer look at Mu Linlang, and sure enough, Brother Lang was a little nervous. "What's the matter? Is something wrong?"

Mu Linlang clasped his hands, and Tu Yang knew that this was a subconscious little movement when Mu Linlang was extremely nervous, and immediately sat up straight. How long has it been since Lang Ge'er looked like this?This time, things seem to be very important.

After arranging the language, Mu Linlang said: "This time the northern Xinjiang is quelling chaos, I also signed up to join the army."

Tu Yangteng raised his head suddenly, his face full of disbelief, "Brother Lang..."

It seems that the most difficult thing has been said, and the next words will be easy to say. At this time, Mu Linlang stared straight at Tu Yang, "You also know that I can't take the imperial examination, and I don't like to talk to those who are my own. Xu Qingliu is an official, so I don’t want to enter the imperial examination. Just this time, the emperor is going to send a large army to quell the chaos. My uncle said that this battle will be over in half a year or three years. I am still young. Go to the army for a few years, and when you come back, you can enter the court with military merit. Fourth brother, you should understand that this is the most suitable path for me."

Tu Yang was silent for a long time. He knew that Brother Lang still had some things to say. With his ability, he would become a marquis and king in the future, and he could easily capture him. But Tu Yang's biggest shortcoming now is that he has no soldiers in his hands!Even today's mastery of the soldiers and horses of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the lowest. It has been six years since he ascended the throne, and less than [-]% of the soldiers and horses are completely in his hands. It is written by people of this line, which has always been a thorn in my heart today.

Mu Linlang's joining the army happened to be able to take food from those veterans step by step... I'm afraid that Master would agree to this matter.

"...But Brother Lang, you are not yet old enough to join the army!" With red eyes, Tu Yang took Mu Linlang's hand and rubbed it against his face, feeling touched in his heart.

"As long as you have the heart, what does it matter if you are young? We can sign up to join the army when we reach the age of 15. I am 11 years old this year. It is easy to sign up a few more years. Fourth brother, I also want to stand by your side and shoulder your shoulders." Side by side, let's laugh at the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains!" Mu Linlang said very seriously.

After a long time, Tu Yang finally smiled, "Okay! I know Brother Lang is very capable. You are a goshawk, destined to soar in the sky. You can fly at ease! Just remember, Brother Lang, this place will always be yours Home!"

Mu Linlang smiled flamboyantly, the fourth brother really understood him.

In the days that followed, while Tu Yang was chasing back the money owed, he was busy helping Mu Linlang prepare the items for the expedition.Now that Mu Linlang is going to go out with the army, Tu Yang spares no effort to recover the money he owes. He can't and doesn't want Mu Linlang to stay far away at the border, but he can't eat well or wear warm clothes. He will feel distressed.

Tu Yang stepped up his efforts to recover the owed money, and ruthlessly rectified a few hard stubbles.The officials thought that Tu Yang would be scolded by the present this time, and if they were lucky, they would be spared the pressure to pay back the money.When they think about it, they have to pay back the money, but they can pay it back slowly.

However, today he is actually in favor of this, and even praised the fourth prince in front of all the officials at the court meeting.After that, needless to say anything, many officials behind all obediently handed over the owed money.However, there are also several companies that refuse to pay back the money, and Rongning and Ningfu are one of them.

In fact, Jia Lian had already set aside the money in the Rongguo Mansion, and the results of following Tu Yang this year have been very good.Originally, when Jia She heard that Jia Lian was going to pay back the money owed by the state treasury, he couldn't understand it. Even if the money hadn't been deposited with Mu Linlang, Jia She would have wanted to buy it to make him fancy old fan.

After Tu Yang started to collect the money, those who refused to pay back the money, no matter if they were the likes of four kings or eight males, or those from poor families, were all thrown into prison by the fourth prince by means of thunder.At this time, Jia She was a little scared and Ji Lingling fought a cold war.

Now that the money owed has been repaid, Jia Amnesty has no debts, and was about to sit and admire the embarrassment of the officials in Minjing, but Tu Yang came to the door.

Sitting on the high seat in the hall of Rongxi Hall, Tu Yang looked coldly at the disturbed Jia Zheng and the bewildered Jia She.

"Master Jia Er must know why I came to your residence today!"

Jia Amnesty looked at Jia Zheng in disbelief, now who doesn't know that the fourth prince is responsible for collecting money owed by the treasury, what else can he do when he comes to the house?But didn't they just pay back the money they owed?He still has the receipt and the IOU for returning it!

"Your Highness, I remember, didn't the previous Tianchen pay back the money owed?" Jia She asked in a low voice, although the money did not pass through his hands, but the receipt was clearly written.

Tu Yang raised his hand, not really appeasing Jia She's uneasiness, "General Jia paid it back, but you paid back the money borrowed by the Rongguo Mansion back then, and today the hall wants to ask for it from Jia She some time ago. The second master borrowed money for the construction of the family's villa. Second master Jia, tell me! How are you going to repay this dispute?"

Jia She slammed and looked straight at Jia Zheng, "What! Second child, you actually borrowed money from the treasury in the name of the mansion? Lian'er paid it back with great difficulty. What are you doing again?" Come hold back!"

Turning to Tu Yang, she said: "Your Highness, the virtuous concubine is the girl of the second room. If there is no niece Gui Ning, the reason why the uncle's family should pay for it, do you think that is the reason?"

Jia Zheng was not happy, "Brother, what is the meaning of this! Although the lady says she is the girl of my second room, she is also surnamed Jia. Could it be that in the past, I have benefited from it? I still remember that I am her uncle. Now I have to pay the money, so I belong to the second room." Is it a girl?"
