Chapter 126: Mindset

If the Yu family was still waiting and watching before, now they are completely tied to Mu Yan's boat.

Ever since she witnessed Mu Yan's appeal at the South City Gate on New Year's Eve, she was even more convinced that the land of Yunnan could only be handed over to Mu Yan, and it could only be Mu Yan.

The eldest wife, Mrs. Yao, took Huo Xi's hand and said angrily: "Why do a family say such things that are foreign to outsiders? The Yu family is the son's maternal family, so naturally they will try their best to help him. If they don't help him, how can they help outsiders?"

?”

Helping Mu Yan means helping the Yu family. Now from top to bottom, the Yu family understands clearly the fact that they are tied to the same boat as Mu Yan.

"Yes. My eldest aunt, please forgive me, I said something wrong. My natal family is in the capital, and my eldest family only has my husband's family. Now, thanks to the help of the Yu family, otherwise my husband and I would be alone."

Mrs. Yao patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, you and your wife are not alone. I am part of the Yu family. My natal family, the Yao family, has many old relatives by marriage. If necessary, I will go back to my natal family and let them know."

Originally, Mrs. Yu was married to the late Marquis, and the Yu family used this common stock to do business in all states and counties in Yunnan. However, the good times did not last long. The First Marquis left early, and the title fell into the hands of the second wife, leaving the outsiders to the Jun family.

Overwhelming the Yu family, a prominent local family. The Yu family had to temporarily retreat and retreat from the place where the Jun family could shoot.

I just don't feel comfortable with Jun's suppression.

Now that they saw that their cheap nephew was willing to support the Yu family, the three brothers of the Yu family discussed it and immediately seized the opportunity and tied them to Mu Yan's boat.

The second wife, Mi Shi, and the fourth wife, Pi Shi, also nodded in agreement. If necessary, their natal families and in-laws are also willing to contribute.

Business women are often matched with merchants, and nowadays they pay attention to being well-matched. The natal families of the Yu family, as well as the natal families of the daughters-in-law of the younger generation are also merchants. Huo Xiruo teamed up with them to run against the Jun family, and the Jun family withdrew from Kunming City.

, and even withdrawing from the entire territory of Yunnan is not impossible.

Pingzhao Wushi Tusi Mansion.

When Uday saw his eldest son-in-law sitting crookedly on a chair with his chin propped up, he didn't respond to him several times. He frowned and asked, "Is your eldest son-in-law very tired from the journey?"

Seeing that Mu Zhan didn't respond, Wu Shi stabbed Mu Zhan. Mu Zhan came back to his senses and smiled at Udai: "Father-in-law, please forgive me. My son-in-law is distracted by something. What did my father-in-law just say?"

"Are you tired? Do you want to go to Wusu's boudoir to take a rest?"

Mu Zhan hurriedly shook his head and refused. His image as the eldest son of the Mu family still needed to be maintained. He concentrated and listened to what Uday and his wives and brothers were saying.

But in my mind, I can't help but think of Mu Yan standing on the city gate tower on New Year's Eve, shouting a hundred promises...

He was not much more noble than him, but standing there, he looked like the king of Dian.

For the past two days, Mu Yan's appearance that night has been in his mind. Mu Zhan was annoyed. He felt that he might have made a mistake in ignoring Mu Yan before.

Uday pointed something at Mu Zhan: "That second brother of yours..."

Udai took the initiative to block the title of Crown Prince. He was determined to marry his eldest daughter into the Mu Mansion and become the Marquis and Duke-in-law.

Seeing Mu Zhan come over, he continued: "Your second brother made frequent moves a year ago. Not only did he ask the various health offices to continue hoarding land, but he also encouraged the people everywhere to open up wasteland. He also said that land tax would be exempted for three years. Now the people are happy to enclose land. This

They have all circled to Wushi’s territory.”

Yunnan's border land was originally a place full of barbarians. Whichever family had more people and abilities would have more land. In order to compete for land, each chieftain government would fight with weapons every year. The big chieftains would eat the little chieftains, and the little chieftains would eat them.

Eating shrimps is a worldly custom. It has been like this for hundreds of years.

Their Wushi family was originally oppressed by the big chieftains, but he was smart and sent his eldest daughter Wusu to the Mu family. Now Wushi is also one of the top chieftains.

Relying on the Mu Mansion, the Wushi family lived a very comfortable life.

However, the prince made it clear to the various states and counties years ago that the chieftain government could not seize the people's fields. Those who violated the rules would be severely punished, or they might be demoted or demoted.

At the same time, local government offices also weakened the power of the chieftain's government and helped redress the grievances of the untouchables. Lawyers also wrote petitions to the illiterate untouchables, accusing the chieftain of oppressing the local people.

Uday was very dissatisfied.

This world is supposed to be about the weak and the strong, which is in line with the world. Who is the strong, who has more power and status. But this prince wants to make the decision for those untouchables.

Also, Pingzhao County, where Wushi is located, originally had no yamen and no official posts, but a new yamen was added two years ago and sent official posts, saying that they wanted to coordinate with Wushi to govern.

Isn't this a dilution of his Wushi's rights? Why did he, Udai, originally do a good job as the prefect of Pingzhaotu, but now he is asked to listen to the officials of the local government?

Went to his.

"Why is it that as soon as your second brother returns to Yunnan, you are nothing?"

How could Mu Zhan feel comfortable after hearing this? No one wants others to poop or urinate on their head.

"Maybe he will be recalled to Beijing this year."

A hostage who stayed in Beijing as a hostage came to quell the chaos. Now that the war in Yunnan has been calmed down, he still wants to stay in Yunnan? The emperor did not agree.

"Liu Qi? Your grandmother and your brother are already in Beijing, and he is not much more. And his only son is also in Beijing." Uday meant that Mu Yan might stay in Yunnan forever.

How could Uday be happy to be the lord of the land and now let others take the lead?

Udai still made a clear distinction between whether to let the prince take charge of the Yunnan region or let his son-in-law Mu Zhan take over.

It's a pity that dozens of killers were sent out years ago, but none of them could kill Mu Yan. That kid was too tough, which cost him dozens of good players. He was so heartbroken that he trembled. Now he wants to send out so many good players in a short time.

It can't be adjusted inside.

Uday couldn't help but sigh.

He glanced at Mu Zhan and didn't intend to say anything more to him. Young people don't listen to the advice of old people. They always think that they have no one to replace them. They underestimate the enemy and are careless. They don't act decisively enough, leaving big hidden dangers for themselves and the people around them.

Then there is no need for him to negotiate with him.

During the first month, Mu Yan held banquets constantly, either outside or at home. People who wanted to make friends with Mu Yan, the crown prince, queued up to hand in invitations. Mu Yan also had his own selfish motives and would not attend any important occasions.

fall.

As the wife of the crown prince, Huo Xi had many people entertaining her. The couple never had a free day.

It wasn't until the nineteenth day of the first lunar month, the day before the Yamen opened, that the couple had free time.

"So lovely!"

Huo Xi stared at the two Zhengyang green jade hairpins in the box. They were crystal clear and green, which made people happy.

"The Wandong family's son and son-in-law's jade carving skills are quite good."

Mu Yan was playing with one of them, a women's jade hairpin. The head of the hairpin was carved with a budding green lotus, and small water droplets condensed on the lotus leaf.

He put it on Huo Xi's head and looked at it again and again, his eyes full of doting.

"Does it look good?" Huo Xi shook his head.

Mu Yan nodded, with a smile on his face, and allowed Huo Xi to put a bamboo-style men's jade hairpin on his head.

"It's beautiful." Huo Xi also praised it, "The craftsmanship is incredible, it's even better than the jade craftsmen in the palace."

After admiring it for a while, they thought of the huge piece of imperial green that was sent to Beiping City. The couple felt a little sad and regretful.

"Tell me, has that piece of jade been delivered to the emperor now?"
