Chapter 167 Sending troops
"Paila"
An exquisite vase produced in Jingdezhen was heavily thrown to the ground and turned into pieces, which fully demonstrates how angry the person who threw the vase was.
"Xu Hongji, how dare you bully our family like this!"
Angry and low roar sounded in the room, and Cao Dazhong kept gasping, like a mouse in a bellowski. His face, which was originally white and ruddy, turned red because of anger, and his blood-filled eyes were filled with anger and murderous aura. In front of him was a 16 or 17-year-old eunuch who was trembling with fear.
"Xiao Anzi, tell us the truth, are you saying what you just said true?"
The little eunuch was so scared that his face turned pale and said tremblingly: "Godfather, what my son said is absolutely true. Lord Yang Feng's house on Chaotian Palace Street has been sealed, and the old couple who stayed behind were also taken away by the people from the Yingtian Palace. Just now, Shopkeeper Shi urgently sent someone to tell you that the government also sealed our Donglaishun Silver Building, saying that this Silver Building was opened by the thief and that everything must be sealed. After the yamen is investigated clearly, we will decide whether to reopen it."
“Okay.”
Cao Dazhong's face was already a little blue with anger, and his hand holding the table was exposed because he tried too hard.
"It seems that Xu Hongji, Zhang Weixian and Liao Yongquan really think they can seize the handle of our family and swallow our silver house. Are these guys crazy? Don't they know that Donglaishun is a nine thousand-year-old property?"
Xiao Anzi, who was kneeling on the ground, looked at the furious Cao Dazhong and said tremblingly: "Godfather, the child thinks they don't know these, but they think they can no longer worry about these?"
Cao Dazhong's expression narrowed: "What did you say?"
Xiao Anzi quickly continued, "Godfather, think about it. Since Duke Wei and others dared to break up with us, it means that they think they don't have to worry about you or even nine thousand years old, so they are so unscrupulous to attack Donglai Shunyin Tower. We have to be careful about this!"
"Oh, I didn't expect you, a little monkey, to think of this layer. It's your little one." Cao Dazhong looked at Xiao Anzi with some surprise, and then said lightly: "Okay, get up. I've been kneeling on the ground for so long, and my knees are quite uncomfortable."
Any industry has its own tradition, and eunuchs are no exception. The tradition of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty is to like to take up godsons. Because what China pays most attention to is the continuation of offspring, and the most vicious swearing in China is to curse the other party to "cut off their children and grandchildren". Therefore, in the eyes of Chinese people, the most important thing in their life is to continue their bloodlines, even if they cannot adopt one or adopt one.
Eunuchs are naturally no exception. However, because eunuchs cannot continue their offspring due to physical reasons, it has become a custom or tradition to accept godsons. In addition to the desire to continue incense, the most important thing here is to find a way out and help him. The most representative person here is Wei Zhongxian. This guy is addicted to accepting godsons. There are a lot of adopted sons and grandchildren, such as "Five Tigers", "Five Dogs", "Ten Children", "40 Grandsons", etc., all of them are his minions and accomplices. Cao Dazhong naturally cannot avoid the common people. This little Anzi is the adopted son Cao Dazhong accepted two years ago.
Xiao Anzi, who received the praise from Cao Dazhong, quickly stood up. His face was so scared that he returned to normal. He secretly observed Cao Dazhong and found that the other party was no longer as angry as before. Then he walked to him and whispered: "Godfather, you know what happened recently. Lord Yang not only offended the imperial envoys a few days ago, but also killed two Jinyiwei who was responsible for escorting the imperial envoys. This is the emperor's personal army. He did such a rebellion and could the emperor bypass him? So the child thought that this was the reason why Duke Wei and the others were so impatient to deal with him. You must know that Yang Fengguang bought glass and those rare things he got from Obaro these days. I don't know how much money he earned. Who wouldn't be greedy? If you say Duke Wei and the others were not moved for the money, they wouldn't believe it if they killed the child!"
After saying that, Xiao Anzi secretly glanced at Cao Dazhong again. After saying this, he felt a little dry. After saying this, he felt a little proud. He thought that when he came to his godfather, he would definitely praise him when he saw that he could have such experience.
"Um!"
What surprised him was that Cao Dazhong just nodded lightly, but his face was still calm and his eyes were just faint. Such an expression might not be a big deal in the eyes of others, but the house, Xiao Anzi, who knows Cao Dazhong's temper, was different in the eyes of him. This means that Cao Dazhong disagrees with his words just now. He couldn't help but ask uneasy: "Godfather, is there anything wrong with what the child said?"
Cao Dazhong did not answer, but continued to ask: "Xiao Anzi, do you think they will have any other actions next?"
"This" Xiao Anzi scratched his head and said hesitantly: "It shouldn't be like this next time. After all, the imperial court's order has not yet been delivered, so they can do this at best."
"You!" Cao Dazhong didn't say anything, but just sighed lightly, waved his hand to signal him to go out.
After Xiao Anzi went out, Cao Dazhong looked out the window and murmured: "It seems that our family underestimated your greed. Jiu Qiansui said it right. Everyone likes silver. However, if you do something beyond your ability for silver, you may be broken. I hope you won't do anything stupid for this, otherwise if things get bigger, we can't escape."
For some reason, Cao Dazhong suddenly felt a deep sense of uneasiness. With his understanding of Xu Hongji, Zhang Weixian and others, these guys will not continue to leave Yang Feng, the person who could threaten them after he annexed Yang Feng's property in Nanjing. However, he can only watch what happened and nothing can be done.
Cao Dazhong's concern was right. While seizing Yang Feng's property in Nanjing, a Ming army composed of three thousand people was heading towards the Qianhusou, Jiangdongmen, and arrived outside the castle where Jiangdongmen, Qianhusou was located at the You hour in the afternoon.
