The protagonist is super fierce [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 84 The Notorious General (3)
Taipinghou returned from the northern rebellion and brought back hundreds of concubines.After Lin Dao and his party entered the capital, the news spread all over the capital at a flying speed within a few days, and became a topic of discussion among common people and court officials after dinner.
Both the ministers and the people felt that it was unreasonable for Taipinghou to make such a move.Bringing one or two beautiful concubines back, everyone thinks it is normal, and they can give a thumbs up and say "chic and suave". …But accepting hundreds of beautiful concubines at one time is obviously beyond the tolerance limit of the masses-such behavior is simply reincarnated!
Those with good intentions even made a serious calculation for Lin Dao: Even if the Taipinghou Yeyu ten daughters, each of them would have to take ten days to get one. This amount is not enough for women who are like wolves and tigers. use it!Some people also said that the general brought back so many women in one victory. If he fought a few more battles, wouldn't the entire Taiping Hou Mansion be too big to hold it?
Some people said: Some women are not very beautiful, at best they are just ordinary people, and I don't know why Taipinghou is interested in her?Could it be that she is particularly slutty on the bed?
There are even more vicious sayings: other generals are chasing after the enemy's buttocks, but our general is good, he only knows how to run after women's buttocks!It's a country's misfortune that such an idiot general should be entrusted with such an important task--this is said, as if the victories that Lin Dao fought before don't exist anymore.
Regardless of how much of these rumors are Lin Dao's enemies deliberately discrediting him, and how much of them are rumors spread by ignorant people, in short, after this incident, Lin Dao's image of the God of War who has won all battles can be regarded as ruined.
Within two days, the emperor in the deep palace also heard about this, and specially called Lin Dao to the palace, and persuaded him worriedly: "Aiqing, you... are too much, right? You are a bone-scraping knife, Aiqing You have to be restrained!"
Lin Dao sat opposite the emperor with a face as heavy as water. He didn't answer the emperor's words, but just bowed his hands and saluted: "Your Majesty, most of those rioters were coerced by bandits and forced to fight against the officers and soldiers. Please give them a lenient sentence and give them A way out..."
The emperor looked at Lin Dao depressedly: I am telling you about Namiser now, what are you talking about with me?We can't wait to talk about this!Besides, I am not a fatuous monarch, of course I know that refugees should be treated differently, do you need to remind me?
Even though he thought so, the emperor also knew that Lin Dao changed the subject because he didn't want to talk about it.In fact, the emperor was too embarrassed to talk about it: Lin Dao was still his elder, even though he was the emperor, it was not easy for him to dictate the affairs of his courtiers' house.
In fact, the emperor still had something to say to him: Recently, some officials impeached Lin Dao for being lecherous and incompetent. Dispatch the army to counter the rebellion, have ulterior motives, and have no shame in competing with the generals... In short, they have everything.
However, as a general, Lin Dao was feared by others, and he had countless enemies. Every time he went to war, the memorials to impeach him could fill a basket. This little thing was actually a little bit painless.The emperor didn't bother to say anything after thinking about it.
Originally, the emperor wanted to wait for Lin Dao to come back and give him the marriage of Princess Yongxin, but Lin Dao's reputation is now in the street. The emperor thought that if he insisted on giving the marriage, maybe the prince Duan who loves daughters like his life will come to him Desperate.
Thinking of this, the emperor suddenly lost his interest, chatted with Lin Dao for a few more words, and then sent him back: He can degenerate as much as he likes, and I don't bother to care about it!
In fact, regarding this matter, the emperor was saddened and secretly delighted.The emperors of all dynasties have this kind of love-hate feeling when they treat military generals who have made great contributions.The emperor is now very fortunate that Lin Dao's reputation was ruined when the foreign troubles were almost eliminated, and it couldn't be more perfect.
Lin Dao ignored all kinds of criticisms against him from the outside world. He is now worrying about the recent expenses in the mansion.Although he was rewarded with a lot of gold and silver, Lin Dao has always been bold and unproductive. Most of the rewards were either distributed to his subordinates or squandered by himself.
Originally, there were not many people in the mansion, and they could handle it. Now that there are a hundred more mouths at once, the warehouse of the Taipinghou Mansion is really shabby—it is the remaining belongings, some of which cannot be taken. The treasure bestowed by the emperor to sell.
It would be great if we could continue to fight. When will those Xirongs attack the side again?The poor general Lin couldn't help but have the idea of distributing "war money".
At this time, in the small town bloodbathed by the bandits, a handsome young man with a thin figure was standing in front of a tombstone in the suburbs with difficulty hiding his grief.
This man was named Li Jinjiang, who left home to practice with a worldly master when he was ten years old, and never returned home for more than ten years.A few days ago, he was finally allowed to be a teacher by his master, and he returned home happily, only to find that his parents had died tragically, and his original hometown had long since ceased to exist.
"Father, mother!" Li Jinjiang knelt in front of the tomb, said firmly with tears in his eyes, "Don't worry, I will avenge you!" Pack your bags and head towards the capital.
In the past few days, he has inquired about the whole story from the people around him, and he knows that a group of bandits washed blood here.The gang of bandits and the bandit capital were arrested and taken to the capital, and they were about to be executed after the fall. Li Jinjiang was just going to rob them before they were executed, and then take their heads to pay homage to the souls of the dead— Just beheading, how can Li Jinjiang's hatred be eliminated!
Another purpose of his trip was to find his only sister: I heard that there was a general who suppressed the rebellion and transported all the surviving civilian women back here. Li Jinjiang hoped that there would be his own sister there—these days he I searched all the corpses here, and dug up the tombs frantically, but I couldn't find my sister. She must be among those people.
Hope that general treats her well.
******
At this time, the person who was missed by Li Jinjiang was hesitating in front of Lin Dao's study.After a while, Jin Shu gritted his teeth and knocked on the door.The door opened quickly, Lin Dao stared at the woman in front of him, was stunned for a moment, and asked uncertainly: "Are you that...uh, Jin Shu?"
When Jin Shu heard Lin Dao call out her name, his eyes lit up immediately: "Master Hou has a good memory, and this concubine is Jin Shu!"
Seeing Jin Shu's attitude, Lin Dao felt a drum in his heart. During this period of time, he was always a little uncomfortable facing the newly recruited concubines Ji, for fear that they would come here to recommend themselves as pillows.
It's not that they look down on their identities. Since they are married, if they make a request, Lin Dao feels that as a husband, he should be satisfied.But if you favor one, you must not neglect the other, and everyone must have a share... When Lin Dao thought of the frightening number, even a general who was used to seeing mutilated limbs and arms, killing people like hemp, couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.
——If this head is opened, Lin Dao feels that he will die suddenly in a short time!So during this period of time, Lin Dao has been pursuing the strategy of never taking the initiative, and he is determined not to invite anyone to serve him at night.Because of his guilty conscience in this matter, Lin Dao compensated them even more on weekdays, which made all the wives and concubines look at him more affectionately.
But since things came to him on his own initiative, it is not Lin Dao's style to avoid and retreat, so he coughed lightly and said, "What's the matter with you?"
"Master Hou is worrying about the issue of money and food?" Lin Dao stared at Jin Shu in shock, and blurted out, "How do you know?"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Dao blushed immediately and wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in: he couldn't even afford to support his own woman, and his wife and concubine said it to his face, it couldn't be more embarrassing!
In fact, Jin Shu said this because of an ideological struggle. Since Lin Dao bought them, Jin Shu has been silently observing him.After these days of observation, she can basically confirm that Lin Dao is a really good person: upright, kind, full of compassion for the weak, and what's rare is that he has a gentle temperament and no airs.
It is precisely because of this understanding of Lin Dao that Jin Shu dared to say this straightforwardly. Seeing Lin Dao's reaction at this time, Jin Shu confirmed his guess even more, so he said calmly: "After listening to a few words, my concubine Gossiping about other people, I had some doubts about the expenditure of the mansion, so I asked Steward Fang to ask, and only then did I know the current situation of the mansion."
After Jin Shu said this, he was afraid that Lin Dao would be angry and added: "This matter is due to my concubine's status, and Steward Fang is also concerned about his status as a concubine, so he revealed the affairs of the house to me... Please don't blame me, Lord Hou. he!"
Hearing this, Lin Dao immediately ignored the embarrassment, and hurriedly said: "You are also the mistress of the Hou Mansion, so it is not too much to ask!" He thought for a while, and then said: "How about this, I will serve His Majesty tomorrow. Here is a note, I will make you the wife of the Marquis Mansion!"
When Jin Shu heard this, his face turned pale with fright, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Majesty has ruined my concubine's life! The concubine is no more than a commoner girl, and she has dirty her body. How dare she steal the position of the main wife of the Hou's mansion!"
Lin Dao really didn't say this on a whim. During this time, he was also observing these women. Among this group of people, Jin Shu can be said to stand out from the crowd.
Jin Shu was born in a wealthy family. He had read books in his early years so he was able to write books. He also knew how to settle accounts and housekeepers. Marry one back, since Jin Shu is indeed a suitable candidate for a regular wife.
But Jin Shu obviously doesn't think so, no matter how much Lin Dao persuades, Jin Shu just refuses to obey, and repeatedly says "Don't joke with my concubine, rest your mind quickly", which makes Lin Dao very helpless, so he has no choice but to let it go give up.
After finally coaxing Jin Shu to his feet, Lin Dao quickly changed the subject and said, "By the way, just now you talked about the family's money and food..."
Jin Shu immediately replied knowingly: "I heard that the Hou Mansion has several stores on Longxing Street, and the business is not very good. If the Lord Hou can trust me, can you let me try..."
These words hit Lin Dao's heart, and Lin Dao immediately agreed to let Jinshu intervene in the management. Seeing that Lin Dao agreed so happily, Jin Shu asked the women in the mansion to help, and Lin Dao readily agreed.
Both the ministers and the people felt that it was unreasonable for Taipinghou to make such a move.Bringing one or two beautiful concubines back, everyone thinks it is normal, and they can give a thumbs up and say "chic and suave". …But accepting hundreds of beautiful concubines at one time is obviously beyond the tolerance limit of the masses-such behavior is simply reincarnated!
