The Prodigal Son’s Happy Life - Chapter 650
[Chapter 650 Poor Gentlemen]
Linze Mansion, dungeon.
Even here, those gentry who were unwilling to pay their land taxes still had no intention of bowing their heads.
Although there was a gap between them, they still had a good time chatting with each other. As they talked, they couldn’t help but talk about the new Amber.
“Xin Anbo is too arrogant! Even when Linze was in the Central Plains Road, he might not have dared to treat us like this!”
“That’s right. I think Xin Anbo is just a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. He doesn’t know how high the sky is. How can he rely on himself ?
It’s Wu Xun who comes from a famous family and is so unscrupulous, but he doesn’t know that everything he has is given to them by us gentry!
If it weren’t for us gentry, they don’t know how to play in the mud!”
“Although that is the case! That’s what we say, but now that we are locked up here, what can we do?”
“We are locked up here, but there is Mr. Zhou Ge outside. As long as Mr. Zhou Ge sends a letter, he will have to behave. Go back to the capital, don’t think what I said is too big, just look at it, in less than three days, his new uncle will definitely come to beg us!”
“How do you say this?”
“Humph”
said that. The man showed a confident smile and said slowly: “To be honest, I have an uncle from far away, who is the current minister of household affairs!
I wrote to ask a few days ago, and he replied clearly. Everyone in the household department is With all the people working together, this plan of unifying the land and the Ding cannot go smoothly!
The dignified Minister of Household Affairs has said so, so what can he do as a little Xin Bo?
Does your Majesty trust the Lord Minister, or does he believe that he only knows how to fight? Wu Xun?
Bah, I was wrong. His father is still capable of fighting. Who is he, eating our things and using our things, but in the end he wants to harm us? “What a piece of shit!
” Hearing this, everyone felt relieved.
That’s the dignified Minister of Household Affairs, a real official of the imperial court, and the one in charge of the world’s money and food. Since he has expressed his stance, what’s left to be uncertain about?
Although they are locked in this cage, they just need to wait for good news.
With this thought in mind, the door to the dungeon was pushed open.
When everyone heard the sound of the iron lock hitting the wooden door, they all cast their gaze, and then saw Li Jing walking over with an imperial edict in his hand.
“How about it, am I right? You are here to apologize to us!”
The gentleman who spoke before saw Li Jing and said loudly with a look of ecstasy on his face.
Everyone looked happy when they saw this scene.
No matter what, it is a good thing that the imperial edict has arrived, it is a good thing!
No matter how evil this new Amber is, he can still disobey His Majesty’s orders. Compared with His Majesty, he is the Monkey King who was suppressed by Wuzhishan in the storybook produced by Zhuxuanzhai, and is nothing!
“Ahem, be quiet!”
Li Jing took the imperial edict, walked to the middle of the cell, glanced at everyone, coughed twice, and said.
Suddenly, everyone fell silent and looked at Li Jing and the imperial edict in his hand with hopeful eyes.
Li Jing picked up the imperial edict and read directly: “It is destined to be carried by heaven, the emperor decrees.”
Everyone knelt down and saluted.
Li Jing continued to read: “The policy of unifying the land and the Ding is a policy of pillars, a policy of founding a country, a policy of rejuvenating a country. It cannot be shaken easily. The Central Plains Road is a place of trial, especially so.
Fang Xiu Lingjie “Du
envoys and envoys have been inspecting and inspecting. Since I was appointed, I have been lamenting all night long. I think of their hard work and merits, so I would like to encourage them. The reward will be rewarded.”
followed by some insignificant awards.
In this era, the gold rewarded by the emperor was actually copper. Not to mention copper, it was real gold, so that’s not uncommon!
When it comes to gold, except for the household department, the national treasury, and the inner treasury, it belongs to Baolefang of Fang Mansion.
“”
Those gentry were happily preparing to receive the decree, but when they heard Li Jing’s words, they were completely stunned.
What?
Is the policy of uniting Earth and Ding unshakable? If Fang Xiu works hard and achieves great results, there will be rewards?
Is there any justice in this?
Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what exactly do you think?
No, you must be deceived by the villain. Your Majesty must be deceived by the villain!
Everyone looked at Li Jing blankly, feeling extremely tight in the chest. Not to mention smiling like before, they couldn’t even speak.
But at this time, Li Jing gave them a stabbing blow.
This is your Majesty’s imperial decree to Lord Jiedushi. After Lord Jiedushi has received it, let me read it to you, so that you bitches can wake up!
“You, Li Jing, you Qiu Ba, how dare you insult me!”
These gentry couldn’t afford to offend Fang Xiu, but they couldn’t afford to offend him as a city guard?
Suddenly, everyone started to fight back.
When Li Jing saw this scene, he was not angry, but found it ridiculous.
Then, he suddenly pulled out his sword, waved it twice, looked at everyone, his eyes flashed coldly, and said coldly: “Just now, Master Jiedushi told this general that the climate in the Central Plains is not good. It is now the twelfth lunar month of winter, and these two or three gentry who froze to death are normal people.
The general wanted to say that it was cold enough today, but not so cold, but he knew you were like this, so he didn’t say anything.
Tell me, which one of you wants to have a taste of the cold winter months? “
This is a threat. Qiu Ba actually dared to threaten them gentry!
For a moment, everyone stared at Li Jing with their eyes wide open, but no one dared to say even a word.
The previous voices also stopped abruptly. Stop.
Li Jing has always known what kind of virtue these guys are, but he didn’t expect that they
would bully those who can be bullied, and hide and pretend to be grandsons when they meet strong ones. This is the first time for Li Jing to be a gentry. I think these two words are so ridiculous.
“What Master Jieduzhi said is really true. You gentlemen are all like rats!” “
After Li Jing finished speaking, he turned and left under the angry eyes of everyone, laughing wildly as he walked: “You are all rats! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! “
The gentry just looked at his back with gritted teeth. Everyone dared to make a sound. They didn’t curse until he was far away.
“A little Qiu Ba bullies others too much, bullies others too much! “
My late emperor, if you were still alive, how could we, the gentry, have fallen into such a state? How could we!” “Someone knelt on the ground and burst into tears. When
everyone saw this, they felt a pang of sorrow and started crying too.
Suddenly, there was a loud cry in the cell, even in the main hall of the Yamen, which was separated by two attics. You can hear it.
“What is this sound? Fang
Xiu frowned, put down the document, looked at Li Jing beside him, and asked.
Li Jing hurriedly bowed and answered: “It should be the gentry who are crying.” “
“is crying? Fang Xiu had a strange expression. He looked at Li Jing and asked, “I just asked you to read out the imperial edict. I didn’t ask you to beat them. I told them to invite them to drink tea.”
“I’m unjust for my humble position. I didn’t move my humble position. I just read out the imperial edict. It’s those gentry who are too cowardly.
“
“
When Fang Xiu heard this, he waved his hand and said, “It doesn’t matter. Let me ask you, how much has the field tax collected? ”
