The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 641
[Chapter 641: It’s here as soon as it’s said]
Mr. Zhou Ge said so.
Naturally, these gentry had no choice.
What kind of person is Mr. Zhou Ge? There is nothing he can do against Xin Amber, let alone them?
However, one person had a sudden idea and said, “Mr. Zhou Ge, what do you think if we sell the land?”
“Sell the land?”
When everyone heard this, they all looked at it with strange expressions. Looking at him, he obviously thought he was a fool.
But the man smiled and said: “Yes, we sold them all. The court stipulates that when buying and selling land, no land tax can be collected. It needs to be made up later. All
we have to do is delay, as long as the delay is long enough , Xin Anbo can’t do anything to us!”
Everyone looked thoughtful when they heard this.
“Brother Liu, what you say makes sense!”
“It makes sense. No matter how arrogant the new Amber is, how can he be more powerful than the imperial court? How much more powerful than the law!?
The regulations of the imperial court are that no matter how arrogant the new Amber is, how can he be respected by your majesty ?
“But”
at this time, someone put forward a different opinion: “But I heard that Xin Amber never does things according to the law, because he has a brain disease, and whatever he commits is blamed on him
.
The court is also very critical of this, but no one can do anything about it.
If the new Amber is still stupid this time and uses the same method to deal with us, how should we deal with it? “
“Oh, it’s just a person. Death! If he wants to touch my land, I will be the first to sell it!”
“I will sell
it too!”
“As long as everyone works together to sell the land, he can What can I do? Arrest us all!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice from outside the door.
“Master, something bad has happened, master!”
The man who spoke turned around and saw that he was actually a servant of his own house.
He frowned and reprimanded: “How do I teach you on weekdays? How can you be so rude as to panic and make a fuss!?”
The servant didn’t have time to pay attention to so much, and he knelt down with a bang. He fell to the ground, with tears and snot flying everywhere, and said loudly: “Master, it’s not that I have forgotten, it
is…”
“What is it, tell me!”
When the gentry next to them saw this scene, their hearts trembled. , feeling flustered for no reason.
At this juncture, we must not cause any trouble!
But then, the servant’s words made everyone present feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave.
“Master, someone has come from the Yamen. They say that you made a mistake, Master, and they want to take you back to the Yamen. I’m afraid those soldiers will be chasing you here soon!” When
the man heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously took a step back. , then, suppressing the fear in his heart, he asked: “Do you know what crime they charged me with?”
When the servant heard this, he thought about it and hesitated: “It seems that there is no crime.”
“There is no crime? “
When the man heard this, he angrily said: “It’s ridiculous! I am also an official of the imperial court. Even if I am Xin Anbo, I can’t be arrested without any charges!”
At this point, he looked at the person sitting in the seat. Mr. Zhou Ge, the expression on his face relaxed a little, and said: “Mr. Zhou Ge, do you think this is true?”
Mr. Zhou Ge picked up the teacup and took a sip. He didn’t know whether he was pretending not to hear, or whether he was pretending not to hear. Really didn’t hear it.
When the others saw this scene, they seemed to understand something, and all of them were a little uneasy.
At this time, another voice came from outside: “Master, something serious is going to happen!”
Again?
Everyone felt depressed when they heard this voice.
Could this new Amber really want to arrest all the gentry in the Central Plains?
As soon as this thought came to their minds, they heard the sound of neat footsteps coming from outside, as well as the sound of swords clashing with armor.
In an instant, my heart felt cold.
Even Mr. Zhou Ge didn’t expect that things would develop to this scene, and his expression was a little confused.
Just when everyone was at a loss, the door of Zhou Mansion was knocked open from the outside.
A group of soldiers rushed in, led by a school captain.
The captain held a document in his hand and read it directly without giving the gentry present a chance to speak.
“Zhou Zheng, Liu Yong, Liu Daoyi”
the people whose names were called all relaxed.
Because they have heard Mr. Zhou Ge’s name, and since their names can be listed alongside Mr. Zhou Ge, it means that there will most likely not be any more problems.
Who is Mr. Zhou Ge?
Even if you have to give some face today, no matter how bad the new Amber is, he will probably arrest Mr. Zhou Ge.
As they were thinking this, the captain had already finished reading out the names, put away the documents, looked at these people, and said in a cold tone: “Everyone whose names have been read out above, please come to the Yamen with me!
Master Jieduzhi wants to Invite you to tea! “
Drink tea! “
?
Everyone naturally knows what drinking tea means.
It is simply equivalent to ‘unnecessary’!
“General, are you sure you read his name? Did you not read his name?”
A local wealthy businessman asked doubtfully.
He is the one whose name is not read.
At first, I was already feeling cold, thinking that I would definitely be killed by the new Amber to make a fool of the monkeys, but I didn’t expect this to be the final result. Is it
just
a mistake?
After all, he clearly heard Mr. Zhou Ge’s name just now!
No matter how arrogant Xin Amber is, he still has to lock up Mr. Zhou Ge! ?
That can no longer be described by words such as arrogance and arrogance. It is simply audacious and wanton!
However, the captain’s words confirmed his thoughts.
The new Amber is so bold! It’s just wanton behavior!
“Those whose names were read, and those whose names were not read, can leave now!”
the captain emphasized in a cold tone.
After hearing this, Mr. Zhou Ge couldn’t help but burst into flames.
Even though he was a lot older, the feeling of oppression he caused to everyone was several times stronger than that of everyone present combined.
“I am the chief assistant scholar of Emperor Mingde’s cabinet. I don’t want to go to the Yamen for tea today. Let me see who dares to touch me!”
Mr. Zhou Ge glared at the captain and said coldly.
When the captain saw this scene, hesitation appeared on his face.
Although Xin Amber had made some explanations before coming.
But he still felt a little guilty when facing the new cabinet minister.
No matter what, this is the chief assistant bachelor of the cabinet who was once inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!
Seeing that he didn’t respond, Mr. Zhou Ge became even more angry. He leaned on crutches, took two steps forward, and angrily said: “I have devoted my whole life to the court and your majesty, and in the end I have to suffer from a bastard who has not yet reached the crown.” Are you angry?
Go back and tell Fang Xiu that you want to invite me to tea, but there is no way!
Even if I die in this house today, I will never step out!”
