Chapter 948 (1/2)
”Yes, Princess!” Zhu Xing accepted the order respectfully.
Niu Chang'an lost all his strength in an instant, almost collapsed on the ground, and his heart was only filled with an idea: over! This is all over!
”No -” Niu Chang'an suddenly yelled, ”you can't sell me Yeah, you can't sell me! I didn't sell myself to the Xiao family. You don't have my contract. You don't have the right to sell me. ”
Nangong Yue eyes light micro motion, but is slightly surprised.
However, the rich families with a little foundation will not use the servants who have not signed the death contract, let alone let alone let them manage such a large Chuang Tzu. However, at this time, it is obvious that what he said is true. But what about that?!
Nangong Yue raised his lips and said faintly, ”it's still a runaway slave Housekeeper Zhu, please go to the government for a moment and tell them that the imperial concubine of this world has accidentally lost a contract for selling her servant's life, and ask them to make up a new one. ”
Power is a good thing. No matter whether Niu Chang'an has a personal contract or not, whether he is a good citizen or not, since he works in the Zhuangzi under the name of Xiao Yi, Nangong Yue says that he is a slave, and he is a slave!
Niu Chang'an Wan did not expect to be like this, suddenly silly eyes, paralyzed on the ground.
His body was wet and smelly.
For fear that he might run into Nangong Yue, Xiao Ying and Xiao dark went forward and dragged him out. On the way, Niu Chang'an yelled incoherently, ”no Uncle! Uncle! Help! You can't sell me! Uncle! Ah, ah, ah -- ”
PA! Bang!
The dull sound of the thick and strong wooden stick hitting the flesh overlaps with Niu Changan's heartrending scream. It sounds very frightening
”As for these people.” Nangong Yue's eyes swept over and knelt on the ground, and the bloodless ruffians said casually, ”send them to the government. They used to be fish and meat neighbors, and today they try to plan for the life of their sons and concubines. How to deal with them, please follow the laws and regulations of Dayu.”
According to the laws and regulations of Dayu, it is at least 3000 Li.
In response, Zhu Xing retreated and ordered people to go to renyazi and the officials.
Outside the hospital, the board is still playing.
When he could not find the wooden board for execution, Xiao dark simply found a wooden stick as thick as his arm. He lifted it high and dropped it again. Every time, he played with great strength.
Looking at the beating down of the stick and the skin of Niu Chang'an, the veterans and the tenants who were watching just felt happy, and the evil spirit that had accumulated in their hearts seemed to be half gone.
Although the cattle manager didn't catch him, Chang'an was not inferior to his uncle. Now he is finally punished. God has eyes! They were staring at the execution board, hoping to fight harder and harder!
”Dong! Bang! Bang
The stick is still falling down one by one, and Xiao Ying counts it with one stick 20、 21... ”
At first, Niu Chang'an still screamed and begged for mercy. But soon, he was hoarse. He was so hurt that he could faint, but he couldn't do it. Xiao Ying saw him pout in the past, immediately poured a bucket of cold water on his head, and then continued to fight.
People who practice martial arts like them are quite sure of the strength of their hands. They can beat him to death, but they can't let him die!
“…… 46、 47... ” Xiao Ying is still counting, straight to the last ”fifty.”.
After the 50 strong sticks were finished, Niu Chang'an was lying there half dead. He couldn't even make a sound of wailing. His back was bloody and fleshy, leaving only a slight undulation of his body, indicating that he still had a breath.
Xiao Ying put a heart protecting pill into his mouth to ensure that he could survive and go to the northwest Kuyao. Otherwise, it would be too cheap for him to die like this.
Although the fifty sticks can not recover the past damage, it can relieve the resentment that has accumulated for many years in my heart. Whether it is the tenants watching around or the veterans in the hall, they are not comfortable.
I don't know who broke the first rotten egg in his hand, and then all the rotten fruits and vegetables fell on Niu Chang'an. At the same time, the tenants also denounced, scolded and vented their anger one by one
Nangong Yue didn't let anyone stop him. These tenants had already suffered a lot. It was also time for them to vent their grievances and anger.
After a while, the officers and the people arrived. At this time, Niu Chang'an had a bad smell. It was as if he had fallen into a cesspool and was picked up again.
The servant saluted Nangong Yue respectfully in the courtyard and took away some ruffians, promising to take good care of them. And renyazi didn't dare to neglect him at all. After receiving Zhu Xing's money, he quickly dragged away Zhu Chang'an, who was half dead, and vowed that he would live.
After these people had gone clean, the courtyard was quiet, which made the veterans feel unreal. They looked at each other, today's all happened too suddenly, let them until now have not come back to God.Is it really because the cow family is acting recklessly without shiziye's knowledge, or is there any other intention?
The Veterans' suspicious eyes fell on Nangong Yue, who was not embarrassed. It's easy to destroy one's trust, but it's not so easy to rebuild one's trust.
However, people's hearts and minds can be seen over time.
Nangong Yue got up and went to the door. He raised his voice to the tenants outside the courtyard and said, ”I will order a new steward to come over later. Starting from this year, the rent will be free for three years. After three years, the rent will be adjusted to 20%. There will be no increase in rent for ten years. In addition... ” She said, and then told Zhu Xing, ”this cattle steward is just a servant, who is qualified to own private property. Housekeeper Zhu, you will take some people later to check all his private property and return all the rents collected this year. The rest of the money was repaired for the tenants in Chuang Tzu and bought some more cattle. In addition, if the tenants have ever sold their children, try your best to buy them back. ”
Zhu Xing responded respectfully.
As far as Nangong Yue is concerned, it will not have any influence even if he is exempted from renting for more than ten or twenty years here. But it's hard to predict. One year or two years will be regarded as the grace of the host family. But when you get used to it, you will take it for granted. I'm afraid it will happen again. Make a rule, rent free for three years is enough to recuperate. If there is a bad year in the future, rent will be reduced.
As for the new steward, Nangong Yue considered it for a while, and finally decided to let her accompany the room temporarily.
As soon as a young daughter-in-law enters the house, she enters into her husband's property and places her own companion room at will. If it falls in Xiao Fang's ears, this ”crime” is really serious. In fact, at this time, it would be more appropriate to have children in the palace. However Nangong Yue once again deeply felt that Xiao Yi's foundation was too thin.
Forget it. Take your time.
Anyway, Wang Du is far away from southern Xinjiang. In Wangdu, she is the biggest! Xiao Fang wanted to teach her a lesson.
Nangong Yue's words were like a drop of water falling into a hot oil pan. The tenants who were watching suddenly exploded. They almost couldn't believe their ears. They whispered to the people around them to confirm that the imperial concubine really wanted to avoid renting children? And building houses and buying cattle for them?
How good their life will be!
The tenants who had to sell their children were crying bitterly. Several women put their hands on their faces and sobbed.
Their tenants in liuhezhuang have finally come to the fore!
”Plop!”
The clever lady Yang was the first to kneel on the stone floor, holding her arms high and kowtowing: ”thank you for your kindness.”
Others knelt down one by one, kowtow and yell: ”thank you, son and concubine!”
”Princess Shizi is really the reincarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva. She is merciful.”
”Our life will be better in the future...”
“……”
Several tenants couldn't help but shed tears as they spoke. It was said that the men did not shed tears. They quietly wiped away the tears with their cuffs. After thanking them for their kindness, they ran back in a hurry to report the good news to their families and friends
This year, they can have a good year!
No, not only this year, but also in the future!
After the tenants gradually dispersed, Nangong Yue came to the veterans again. She looked at them and said with guilt: ”the son of a generation brought you here to support us. Despite this, I hope you will stay here. I can guarantee that there will never be a second time. ” After a pause, she added If you want to leave, you can do it, but at least you have to wait for the son of God to come back from southern Xinjiang and compensate you personally. ”
The oldest one armed veteran looked at Nangong Yue with burning eyes. After a while, he said, ”does the imperial concubine want to keep confining us?”
As soon as this speech came out, the veterans who had already calmed down were agitated one after another. Lily and Baihui could not help but step forward and protect nangongyue.
Nangong Yue did not agree, which is one of the reasons. Xiao Yi was in a difficult situation in southern Xinjiang. Obviously, these veterans still have resentment against him. If they go back now, if they talk about one or two with familiar people, they will inevitably cause military unrest, which is not conducive to Xiao Yi's safety. What's more, Xiao Yi brought these veterans to Wangdu for the sake of supporting them. Now, even if Xiao Yi is not here, she will do it well!
Nangong Yue didn't evade his eyes. Instead, he asked, ”I heard uncle Chu say that what Niu Guanshi told you is that the son of a generation brought you to the capital because of the imperial concubine's invitation. Is that right?”
The one armed veteran did not speak and his face was full of sarcasm.
”Do you remember what Niu Chang'an said just now?” Nangong Yue eyes a Lin, word by word said, ”he claimed that his uncle is the princess's uncle!”
One armed veteran's face suddenly changed. If it wasn't for Nangong Yue's reminding, he would almost ignore it.The veterans also looked at each other in awe. They all came from southern Xinjiang. Naturally, they knew that Xiao Fang, the second princess, was a commoner daughter of the Fang family. Since she was a commoner daughter, it was not surprising that there was a relative uncle who was a slave.
If it is because the princess has pity on them that they are brought to the capital by the prince, then why is it the Royal uncle who abused them?
However, the Niu steward often claimed that he was asked to do so by the son of God.
What the hell is going on here?
The doubts and contradictions among them make it difficult for them not to study them carefully.
The old soldiers can not help but emerge a thought: are they really wronged the son of a son?
It's not impossible to think about it carefully. After all, from the beginning to the end, it's Niu Guanshi, who bears the name of Xiaoyi, the son of the family. They haven't seen Xiao Yi from the beginning to the end Unconsciously, a part of the veterans began to waver, wondering whether they were blinded by a moment of anger. Even the eyes of the one armed veteran are not as sharp as they were just now.
Nangong Yue was a little relieved, and said that, she did not continue to explain.
Now all they need to do is to make them suspicious of what Niu Guanshi said. It is not beautiful to say more.
You can see people's heart with time.
Nangong Yue's voice was gentle, but he continued with strong words: ”the son of a generation brought you to the king's capital, not for anyone's entreaty, just because you are an old man who has been with the old lord. Just for this, it's what the son of a generation should do. The prince is not in the capital now. I will take care of your life in the future. ”
With that, she went back to the main seat and told Zhou Dacheng to settle the veterans.
The houses Niu Chang'an arranged for them were either transformed from pig sheds or dilapidated houses. Those houses must not be able to live in any more. Moreover, the clothes and bedding they wear are not as good as beggars. Besides, these veterans have some old wounds on them, and this year's torture has hurt their foundation. We need to ask the doctor to have a good look
These things can't be done in a day or two.
