"If you have anything to say, tell me now and stop quarreling here. Men are all good-tempered."

When speaking, you must pay attention to rhythm, advance slowly, and guide the audience.

Li Jinglong originally wanted to whet everyone's appetite and give it a try. But before he could get into his tone, there was a sudden shout from the side, which startled him.

Turning around, I saw the old man Guo Ying, Marquis of Wuding, with his beard and hair spread out, kicking him like a man-eating tiger.

Li Jinglong cannot afford to offend this man.

Even though the other party was just a Marquis, he was a local rich man in Huaixi back then, and he followed the old man with hundreds of people. Since he joined the army, he has always been the commander of the old man's bodyguards, and he is an absolute confidant. Even his grandfather back then

Li Zhen, the old man’s brother-in-law all call him brother-in-law.

When Xu Da, Chang Yuchun and others saw the old man, they also called him Fourth Brother Guo affectionately.

From a family perspective, this man's biological sister is the old man's second daughter-in-law, Concubine Guo Ning. After the death of the first empress, Concubine Ning once commanded the East Palace. This old marquis is also a serious uncle of the country.

"Say it!" Guo Ying yelled again.

Li Jinglong laughed twice and said, "Don't be anxious!"

"If I don't say I'll beat you up!" Wang Bi directly showed his fist.

The initial website address is https://m.

In front of him, Li Jinglong was sure that as long as he couldn't explain clearly, these people would punch him. Although he was the Duke of the country, the title was useless against these killers.

"You guys are confused, but you still don't believe me!"

But Li Jinglong knew better that he must speak with force at this time and not be timid. He sneered and said, "Your Xuntian is a big deal? Do you know why the old man Ling Han dared to challenge the emperor and shout about Duhuangzhuang?"

Take it back to the imperial court and distribute it to the people!"

As soon as he said this, all the military princes fell silent for a while.

After thinking about it for a while, I felt that something was wrong. The ministers were just attacking their nobles, but how could they be so brave that they dared to argue with the emperor about the emperor's estate and live impatiently? Who doesn't know that Fengyang is all because of this?

The presence of the Zhu family's ancestral tomb is the most important thing for the emperor.

"Hey!" Old Marquis Guo Ying said anxiously, "You kid is out of breath when you talk, who is so anxious?"

"Old Marquis, please be patient!" Li Jinglong looked around and whispered, surrounded by everyone, "Actually, this matter is also behind the instruction of His Majesty the Grandson. Moreover, His Majesty has already been angry with His Majesty!

"

Everyone became more and more puzzled, and Cao Zhen shouted, "Since Your Highness and the two of you have discussed it, why do you let me say it in the palace? Besides, what does this matter have to do with our Xuntian Zhuangzi?"

"Marquis Jingchuan, you are always so impatient! Please think about it more deeply!"

Li Jinglong shook his head deliberately and spoke slowly, "I'm going to Dufengyang this time. I'm escorting you there, right?"

Everyone nodded.

"After His Highness arrived in Fengyang, he found that the land in Fengyang and even half of Huaixi was basically in the hands of Huangzhuang and us nobles. However, there was no good land in the hands of the common people, and some of them could not grow crops.

Slope."

"Half of the people in Huaixi are working as tenants in the village owned by nobles like us. Everyone, if I have to put it bluntly, you are also from poor families. You don't know how the tenants live, right?

"

"Especially when His Highness paid a private visit incognito, I heard from the common people that no matter what the weather is like, the rent on your village is not less than a grain of rice. People have worked hard for a year, but in the end they still owe money. Your life is not as good as yours."

The animals at home are good, you are absolutely right, how can your heart feel better due to His Highness's kind-hearted nature?"

Everyone's expressions changed slightly, no longer as violent as before.

Li Xin, Marquis of Chongshan, thought about it and said, "That has nothing to do with us. It is natural to cultivate land and pay rent. Besides, those lands are our credit!"

"Yes, it has nothing to do with us because the people are poor. We can't rely on us just because the people are poor!" Other military princes nearby muttered.

"Hey, everyone, do you believe what you say? We nobles naturally don't bother to bully tenants. But who dares to say that all the people in charge of Zhuangzi are clean!"

Suddenly, no one around said anything. Since ancient times, it has been normal for slaves of wealthy families to bully others.

"Let me just listen to this. What do you think if it reaches the ears of the Emperor and His Highness?" Li Jinglong looked at everyone again, "This is not knowing how to advance or retreat, this is talking nonsense!" As he said, he patted the table, "

Don’t forget the lessons learned from Pingliang Marquis Fei Ju, Yan’an Marquis Tang Shengzong, Yongjia Marquis Zhu Liangzu and others!”

"hiss!"

Everyone took a breath. These few people said that they died because of Hu Weiyong, who was affiliated with the Party. In fact, everyone knew what happened. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there have been quite a few nobles who have been killed because of the cruelty of the people.

"Think again, why did His Highness just stay in Fengyang for a few days and then return to Beijing immediately?" Li Jinglong said again, "Logically speaking, should His Highness stay in Fengyang for a few more days and walk around more?

!" At this point, Li Jinglong pinched an edamame with his hand, threw it directly into his mouth, and whispered again, "Your Highness is scared!"

"Speak clearly!" Wang Bi, the Marquis of Dingyuan, asked.

"Your Highness is afraid that something embarrassing will be found out about you!" Li Jinglong said, "Your Highness is afraid that if one of your tenants really comes to the city to file a complaint! Think about it, think about it, if something like this really happens.

, Your Highness, will you investigate or not?"

"If you don't investigate, you will fail the people. If you investigate, if the quarrel becomes too big and the old emperor is unhappy, who can protect you? Your Highness, you have to wipe your ass for us nobles, don't you have too much to do?"

The crowd was silent, with sweat on their foreheads.

"Your Highness is so benevolent and righteous!" Song Guogong Feng Sheng said.

"More than benevolence and righteousness, it is simply God's grace!" Li Jinglong cupped his hands in the direction of the imperial city and continued, "On the way back to the capital, His Highness was thinking that paper cannot contain the fire. Zhuangzi's land in Huaixi, all of you, has been occupied. Those who

Sooner or later, I will take this matter as a sign. Seniors, we are all members of our own family. It is not nice for juniors to say it. Although we do not pee his fermented bean curd, the Dali Temple of the Supervisory Office, the Inspection Department of the Imperial Envoy, and the Hanlin Academy give the matter a

Scholars in the Department of Science and Technology, would you be afraid of impeachment if you fight to the death?"

"If the ministers are really willing to risk their lives, what will the emperor do? Let alone saying that it is impossible, what can't those scholars do for the sake of fame?"

Everyone was stagnant again, speechless.

Song Guogong Feng Sheng was more thoughtful and said, "You're right, that's really what happened! Although everyone is not too sorry, but people's words are terrible, and if we really hold on to him, there is nothing we can do!"

"You are a wise old man!" Li Jinglong complimented the other party and continued, "So, His Highness might as well ask these scholars to write letters about the fields first, in order to give us people a dignified and honorable retreat!"

"Like you, hand over Zhuangzi?" Cao Zhen asked.

"Yes, everyone will be happy if we hand it over, and no one will think of making an issue out of it in the future!" Li Jinglong said, "After handing it over, even if something happens in the future, let's forget it!"

"This is His Highness's love for us!" Li Jinglong said in a long voice, "Everyone, let's be fair. Does His Highness do this to us? If His Highness pretends not to know anything and allows those officials to impeach,

Will we be disgraced in the end?"

"That's right!" Everyone nodded.

Seeing that the fire was almost done, Li Jinglong lowered his voice again, "But His Highness still felt sorry for all the heroes, so he talked to me on the way back. Those fields were all earned by you fighting for your life. Although the people suffered a loss, the imperial court did not.

The principle of taking it back.”

"What is the field? It's heirloom! The military princes' families have great achievements and many descendants. But the title can only be passed down to one person. If there is no military merit, this big family will be broken up after three or two generations. Only the remaining

Leave this little land to your descendants and make them rich and idle people!"

Cao Zhen said calmly, "His Highness is truly affectionate and kind to us immortals!"

"When I returned to Beijing, Your Highness was thinking about this all the way. I told Your Highness that for the sake of the people of Fengyang, there is nothing we can do. We cannot leave the people of the capital without land to farm. But you know what Your Highness said?"

Whoops, heads from all around came over and sprayed hot air on Li Jinglong's face.

"Your Highness said that the imperial court will not take back Zhuangzi's land in vain, but will compensate all the meritorious officials! What your highness means is that the imperial court will redeem it!"

Buzz, the surrounding area suddenly exploded.

"What compensation?"

"The imperial court redeemed it? Give money?"

"What else did His Highness say? You should tell me quickly!"

Li Jinglong smiled mysteriously, "Take my Li family's land as an example. Do you know how much compensation His Highness has given?"

"Speak quickly!" Everyone wanted to pick him up and get out everything he was saying.

Li Jinglong smiled slightly and said, "Guess!"
