In the main hall of the Qin Mansion, Qin Huaidao asked Jia Youcai to send the father-in-law away. He was a little irritable looking at the imperial edict in his hand. He couldn't guess what Li Er was going to do. He was a martial artist. As usual, he had to be prepared for a thousand beauties and follow the military path.
In the future, he will be a general on the battlefield at most. How can he become a civilian official?
Qin Huaidao was not interested in any official position at all, because he did not want to do it, but the imperial edict had been issued, and it was impossible to resist and disrespect the edict. It would lose his head. The era of imperial power was unreasonable, so he could only resist softly.
Not long after, Jia Youcai ran back excitedly: "Young Master, I'm so happy!"
"What's so exciting?" Qin Huaidao angrily handed the imperial edict to He'er who was waiting next to him, and said, "Take it and put it in the study."
He'er happily went away with the imperial edict.
Jia Youcai waited for He'er to go far away, and said in a low voice: "Young Master, if you become a civil servant, you don't have to go to the battlefield, and there is no need to worry about your life. There is also the imperial edict that establishes a dynasty to listen to the government. This is a great thing.
, is a signal from the Holy One that he wants an important young master. No one in Wu Xun’s younger generation has ever received such an honor. The general has appeared!"
"Okay, what are you excited about? The monthly salary of the sixth-grade is only two or three taels of silver, which can support a few people in the house. The top priority is to find a stable livelihood. If you don't have money, everyone will go to the northwest wind?" Qin Huaidao said angrily,
But I was secretly wary in my heart.
Chao Yilang was a civil official, and the imperial edict did not mention any specific affairs. I am afraid that the establishment of the dynasty and the administration of the government meant that he would stand around at every court meeting and listen to what others had to say. It was an idle job, but he could easily become the target of bribery. After all, every time there was a big meeting
It is compulsory to attend all court meetings, and even small court meetings and discussions with a small number of people must be attended, and a lot of news can be heard.
Once someone bribes someone, those who don't join in the same trend will be resented and offended, while those who join in the same trend will get involved in fights, or even get involved in national disputes, and everyone will be killed in a few years.
The last time he resigned was to avoid danger, he didn't expect Li Er to dig a bigger hole.
However, Jia Youcai didn't think so. He thought that Li Er was thinking about Qin Qiong's old love and wanted to cultivate Qin Huaidao. The opportunity for the Qin Mansion came. He was overjoyed and reminded: "Young Master, with the imperial edict, the news will be spread soon."
Yes, the younger generation of Wu Xun will definitely come to congratulate you, so you have to prepare some return gifts."
"what to prepare?"
Qin Huaidao immediately warned: "Don't prepare anything. Close the door tightly and refuse to see guests. Just tell the outside world that I have gained enlightenment recently by observing the magic soldiers and am practicing peerless martial arts in seclusion."
"But, as usual, the young master has to go to the palace today to express his gratitude."
"No time!"
"Tomorrow is the imperial meeting, you have to go."
"Send someone to ask for leave. Just tell me that I caught the cold when I was comprehending my secret knowledge and need to rest." Qin Huaidao dropped a sentence and walked towards the backyard, feeling a little suffocated in his heart. This Li Er is such a weirdo.
Luo Zhang caught up and asked in a low voice: "Uncle, don't you want to be the court minister?"
"Useless official positions also offend people. Remember, when you grow up and want to be an official in the court, it is best to join the military, go to the battlefield to kill enemies, expand territory, and make a name for yourself in history. Do not get involved in government affairs or get involved in party disputes.
, understand? It is best to follow your uncle and become a rich man in the future, marry more wives and concubines to spread the branches and leaves of your Luo family. You will be the only one left in the Luo family. If you are gone, I am sorry to the ancestors of the Luo family.
Zong.”
"Remember it." Luo Zhang agreed quickly, but he didn't agree in his heart. A real man fought on the battlefield and became famous, so how could he be attached to the gentle hometown?
Qin Huaidao knew at a glance that this boy didn't listen, but he couldn't persuade him much. Everyone has their own ambitions and cannot be forced. Didn't he have the same idea in his last life as a soldier?
Only by experiencing it can you see through it and know how to choose!
"Go prepare the car!" Qin Huaidao said angrily.
Luo Zhang didn't care, he smiled and turned to leave.
Qin Huaidao returned to the inner courtyard, took out ten gold cakes and packed them in a bag. He picked up another bag on the table, which contained things for disguise. He quickly came to the side yard and saw that Luo Zhang had prepared the carriage.
He walked forward quickly, got into the carriage and said, "Go to the World Gambling House."
"drive!"
The carriage slowly walked out of the yard and headed down the street. Luo Zhang concentrated on driving the carriage and did not ask any questions.
In the carriage, Qin Huaidao opened the small bag, rubbed the eyebrow pencil in his hands, wiped it on his face after getting it dirty, and his fair skin suddenly turned black. He then took out some short hair and glued it on his chin. He asked for everything he wanted.
It's not very easy to use, especially the glue. I'm really worried about it falling off, so I have to make do with it.
Not long after, the carriage arrived at the gate of Tianxia Gambling House, and Qin Huaidao jumped out of the car and went in. Luo Zhang had accompanied him last time, so he thought Qin Huaidao liked gambling and put on makeup because he was worried about being recognized, so he didn't bother to ask more questions.
After a while, Qin Huaidao came out of the gambling house, and Luo Zhang drove towards the next gambling house.
An hour later, Qin Huaidao exchanged all ten gold cakes and returned home. The carriage entered the yard directly from the side door. No one knew that Qin Huaidao was sitting inside, and he exchanged a large bag of silver.
After briefly removing his makeup, Qin Huaidao jumped off the carriage, signaled Luo Zhang to drive the carriage away, and went straight to the front yard with a large bag of silver. After finding Jia Youcai, he said: "Arrange for someone to send the silver to the village, and the rest will be used as a spare.
Starting today, everyone’s daily allowance will be doubled, and food expenses will also be doubled.”
For five hundred households, two taels per household is equivalent to one thousand taels. Ten gold cakes can be exchanged for one thousand, six hundred taels, which is enough. Besides, there is still a lot of silver from the last exchange. The family does not have to worry about money problems for a while.
Jia Youcai thought it was borrowed again, so he didn't ask any more questions, and reminded: "Young Master is kind, but this will increase the cost of the house, and I'm afraid it won't be able to support it for long."
"Just do as you are told. I will solve the money problem. In addition, the tea frying cannot be stopped. I remind everyone to save it and prevent moisture." Qin Huaidao warned and walked towards the backyard.
Jia Youcai thought about how he would earn at least 20,000 taels after bidding on the magic weapon. He really didn't have to worry about the family's expenses. At worst, he could ask the young master to buy another one in exchange for money. He stopped worrying and made arrangements quickly.
…
The palace, the backyard.
Wang Gui looked at the embarrassed Wang Fengsheng, who was devouring food. The fear in his eyes could not be let go. He was frightened, and his heart was filled with anger. He asked angrily: "I only know how to eat useless things. Tell me, is it?"
Who kidnapped you and hid you there?"
"No... I don't know him. He is thirty or forty years old. He has a beard, like a scholar. He is hiding in a cave in a big mountain in the west. The person who let me go is wearing a scarf, so I can't see through it." Wang Fengsheng quickly swallowed the food and said.
"What a waste!"
Wang Gui scolded angrily and turned to leave.
The man in jinyi also glared at Wang Fengsheng and hurriedly followed him into the study. After closing the door tightly, the man in jinyi whispered: "Father, there is something fishy about this matter."
"Tell me your guess."
"The murderer did not cover up when he was kidnapped, but he covered his face with a face mask when he was released. It can be seen that he was disguised when he was kidnapped and was deliberately exposed to Feng Sheng. This confuses our judgment. It may be too late to cover his face when he was released, or it may be someone else.
, In addition, the boy from the Qin Mansion went out of the city to the village today. It is entirely possible that he let him go when he came back. He didn't have time to change his appearance, so he covered his face with a cloth. "
"There is no evidence, and there is nothing we can do if we know it is him. This man is deceitful, his thoughts are difficult to predict, he acts calmly and cautiously, but he is also bold. I am underestimating him. What is he doing in the village?"
"I don't know the details, but the people who were following me came back and reported that they saw Qinjiazhuang digging fields to build a boundary line. The intention was unknown, and they didn't even say anything when they came up. I'm afraid there was a conspiracy."
"Building a border?"
A flash of surprise flashed in Wang Gui's eyes, and after pondering for a moment, he warned: "Even if it is raised, what will happen if it is widened? It is still a border line, and it will not grow food. However, this man's scheming is unpredictable. He must have intentions. Send people to watch him to death.
."
The man in brocade clothes hurriedly said: "My child has taken note of it. In addition, the person in the court appointed him as the Councilor of the Court. He is in the sixth rank. He established the court to listen to the government. Wu Xun suddenly became a civil servant. Is there any problem in this?"
"There must be something weird. I will arrange for someone to read it tomorrow morning and see what the person's reaction is. All you need to do is take care of the things at home and save me some trouble. Don't worry about anything else."
The man in brocade robes quickly agreed and asked, "What about serving as a student?"
"Whatever you have to do, do it. Don't worry about the Wang family's name. In addition, arrange for the secret protection of the Wang family's children. The same thing will not happen again. The Wang family cannot afford to lose this person. Also, temporarily cancel the action against the Qin family and prepare for it.
The money is being auctioned, and revenge is coming in a long time. If you offend my Wang family... you will fight to the death!" Wang Gui explained coldly, feeling a little irritated for no reason and wanting to hit someone.
The man in brocade clothes was so frightened that he hurried away.
