Chapter 342 I heard that an important minister is recuperating in the Lin family
[６９书吧-ＷＷＷ６６ＨＵＵ.COM] Princess Xunyang sent the bodyguard to Su Jinxin. For Su Jinxin, it was like picking it up for free, without having to pay every
Months of monthly money can still guarantee her loyalty to her master. Where can she find such a good guard? Besides, on their way to Chuzhou, they can take them with them.
A guard from the palace swaggers around everywhere. Not only is he majestic, but he can also protect her and Fan Fan. Although the Su family also brings four or five guards, they are not as good as the guards carefully trained by Xunyang Palace.
, one against ten, or even dozens, and this guard named Lou Tian seems to be relatively upright and loyal, so he should be reliable.
"My adoptive mother has such good intentions. If I continue to refuse, wouldn't it hurt your adoptive mother's heart?" Miss Su Er took advantage of her good behavior and did not forget to praise Princess Xunyang, "Foster mother, you are truly worthy of being a noble lady."
Princess Xunyang, as soon as we met her, she sent her daughter a bodyguard."
"You girl, you are just going around the corner and scolding your adoptive mother for being stingy. Don't worry, as you become my adopted daughter, I will not treat you badly." Princess Xunyang said with a smile, "I don't have a daughter under my knees, so what can I do today?"
It’s a blessing for me to recognize you as my daughter, but it’s just
You are already engaged, otherwise I will go to great lengths to pick a good son-in-law for you, not to mention the young masters from the Jiangnan families, or even the princes and nobles far away in the capital.
That cousin of mine has done a great job."
Miss Lin's choice of husband shocked the whole Jiangnan. Princess Xunyang didn't care much about it at first, but now Su Jinxin became her adopted daughter, and the Lin family was Su Jinxin's maternal grandfather's family. Therefore, Xunyang
The princess felt that her adopted daughter was being compared to that of the Lin family.
She couldn't keep it up, so she slapped the table and said, "Jinxin, you are my princess's daughter, how can you get married casually? Let's do this, wait for my princess to return to the palace in Jiangzhou, and let the prince repair the books in Yunnan
Family, let them ask the Yun family to propose marriage again and give them a betrothal gift."
Asking for another marriage, giving another betrothal gift, how could her adoptive mother think about it all at once? Su Jinxin held her forehead with a headache.
"You can't do that, princess. Mr. Yun is no better than others. What if, what if I offend Mr. Yun?" Qiaolan was so frightened that she hurriedly stopped her. That was Mr. Yun who was like an immortal. He was not an ordinary young man from aristocratic family. How could he do that?
Let others tease you like this.
"What are you afraid of? With this princess supporting your young lady, no matter how powerful the Yun family is in Jiangnan, it is just an aristocratic family. How can it be compared with my princess' Xunyang Palace?" Princess Xunyang said nonchalantly.
"Princess, you don't know something. The Yun family has already given seventy-two betrothal gifts to our second young lady. If you give us any more, it will be against the rules." Qiaolan explained timidly.
Seventy-two raised the betrothal gift. When Princess Xunyang heard this, she was shocked. Indeed, if she continued to give it away, she would be like the royal family. She and Cao Huiqin looked at each other and thought, what does the Yun family want to do? How dare they blatantly do it?
If you violate the laws of the court and give betrothal gifts to the Su family according to the standards of a prince marrying a wife, aren't you afraid that the court will find out and blame you?
"This boy is really attentive." For someone who can give out seventy-two betrothal gifts, it seems that Third Young Master Yun really wants to marry Jin Xin. Princess Xunyang couldn't help but praise.
Su Jinxin glanced outside the window and saw that the sky was getting dark, so she said, "Jinxin will let my servants arrange a place for you to live. Mom, please rest early."
"Grandma, Qier wants to sleep with you." Su Jinxin said this, Qier rushed forward and threw herself into Princess Xunyang's arms, saying coquettishly.
Fan Yichu was originally in front of Princess Xunyang, but as soon as Qi'er came over, he was pushed outside by Qi'er.
He didn't provoke her. Why did this unruly little princess keep going against him? Fan Yichu frowned in confusion. Originally, he wanted to tease Qi'er, but later he was afraid of causing trouble for Su Jinxin.
, and gave up.
The Su family's big ship is mainly used to transport tea, and there is not much room for people to live in it. Princess Xunyang has a prominent status, so there is no reason for her to be crowded with Su Jinxin, so she can only live in Fan Yichu's place.
As soon as Princess Xunyang and Qi'er left, Su Jinxin said, "Yier, you will sleep with cousin Tianhua and the others tonight."
"Sister, it's not just tonight." Fan Yichu said dissatisfiedly, "That is my bed. I don't want to sleep with that unruly little princess."
"When we arrive in Kuaiji County tomorrow, the naughty little princess you talked about will be clamoring to change ships, so you don't have to worry about her continuing to sleep in your bed." Why did this brat Fan Fan become so fussy, Su Jinxin
Wan'er, Princess Xunyang and others want to
Going to Jiangzhou, and this ship is from Wuzhou. Although they go south together, the water route is different. Besides, the nanny Ruan is here, so she will definitely do everything possible to persuade Princess Xunyang to change the ship, so as not to let Princess Xunyang see Lin.
, the secret between her and Qier can no longer be kept.
Sure enough, as Su Jinxin expected, on the second day, as soon as the Su family's ship approached the ferry at Kuaiji County, Princess Xunyang said goodbye to her. Before leaving, Princess Xunyang once again told Lou Tian to take good care of herself.
After protecting Su Jinxin and Fan Yichu, they safely took Qier on a luxurious and spectacular painting boat.
After finally leaving, the young master could finally sleep in his own bed. Fan Yichu stood at the bow of the boat and shouted happily to Qier, "The unruly little princess will never see you again!"
Qier, who was on the painting boat, stared at her little eyes and thought to herself, little naughty man, just wait, don't let me see you, otherwise I won't be able to spare you.
The Su family's ship sailed away from the ferry in Kuaiji County and continued southward.
Accompanying the Su family's big ship were several painting boats belonging to aristocratic families. Although Su Jinxin didn't know which family's young masters were in the painting boats, there was no need to guess. They must be some dandy boys.
Silver, singing and dancing day and night, indulge in sensuality,
Listening to those intoxicating sounds, Miss Su Er felt more and more irritable, so one morning, when the clouds and mist were shrouding the river, Miss Su Er, dressed in plain clothes and wearing a fox fur coat, came to the bow of the ship, holding Mr. Yun's hand as a gift.
Her purple bamboo flute played the song "Wu Sheng".
"Wu Sheng" is an ancient piece of music, with endless sadness and deep sorrow, and the sad part is suffocating, it is the kind of depression with tearing pain, listening to it makes life worse than death.
.
The music is sad, and it places very high demands on those who play it. Therefore, very few people in this world would choose to play this song "Wu Sheng". After all, if the performance is not performed well and the true artistic conception of the music is not achieved, there is a possibility that
It's better to paint a tiger than a dog.
"Which bastard dares to disturb my son's sleep!" The flute sounded, and soon there was movement in the painting boat closest to the Su family's ship. A disheveled young man from aristocratic family ran out angrily and shouted
, "It's so early in the morning, why are you crying like a ghost and howling like a wolf?"
"The song..." Halfway through the words, when he saw the woman standing in the clouds and mist, the cursing stopped abruptly. He couldn't see the woman's face clearly. He only felt that she was standing alone on the bow of the boat, looking so lonely and lonely.
It was as if everything in this world had nothing to do with her, and she was just a passerby.
"Who is she?" The young man from an aristocratic family was stunned.
"A woman who can never be guessed." In the painting boat, the warm voice of another young master from aristocratic family sounded out slowly, "Brother Gao, since you are awake, let's continue drinking."
The clouds and mist on the river cover the distant mountains, the water flows slowly, and the cold wind gradually rises.
"Second Miss Su, do you want me to go down and find out?" Lou Tian, holding a long sword, looked respectful. Originally, he had some complaints about Princess Xunyang asking him to protect the second young lady of the Su family, but these days with
After getting along with this second young lady, I found that this second young lady Su was decisive in her actions, not sloppy, and somewhat manly. Moreover, every time the Su family's big ship
She would make careful arrangements when arriving at a prefecture or county. Although there were many ships going south together, there were six large ships traveling on the same waterway as the Su family. Four of them were painting ships belonging to aristocratic families, but only the one that was far away
The nearest painting boat seemed to follow them intentionally. When they stopped, the painting boat also stopped, and followed them almost all the way from Kuaiji County to the current Songyang County.
The distance between the two boats is not far. If Lou Tian wants to go over, it will not be difficult with his martial arts. Su Jinxin stopped him and said, "No, they don't mean any harm. After a while, Songyang County should
When we arrive, we will disembark there.”
Songyang County is under the jurisdiction of Chuzhou Prefecture, and the Lin family's residence is in Kuocang, Chuzhou Prefecture. If you want to go to Kuocang, the closest route is Songyang County.
"Sister, we're here." At this time, Fan Yichu yawned, walked out sleepily, and muttered, "I will never take a boat again from now on. It's so wobbly that I almost fainted."
."
"I don't know who originally wanted to take the boat to go south. If you don't take the boat, you will get angry with me." Su Jinxin held the purple bamboo flute in one hand and pushed Fan Fan with the other, "Let's go quickly, we still have to hurry.
."
"Second Miss, you have to come back early." Su Tianhua said while ordering people to carry the tea on the boat, "I have already ordered people to prepare a carriage at the ferry. You can take the carriage directly into the city later. I will also go to Yaodi's place.
We said hello, we are all one family after all, and now that we are under his rule, he, the county magistrate, should also fulfill his duties as a landlord."
"Thank you for your kindness, cousin Tianhua. Jinxin has something important to do, so I won't go to cousin Tianyao." Su Tianhua didn't say anything, but Su Jinxin really forgot that her cousin Su Tianyao was from Songyang County.
She is a seventh-grade county magistrate, but she has enmity with Su Tianyao. She should be thankful that Su Tianyao doesn't make things difficult for her. It's impossible to ask him to provide money to entertain her.
Su Tianhua was a little disappointed and said, "Okay then."
"Cousin Tianhua, I'll leave this business to you, thank you for your work." Su Jinxin bowed slightly and saluted, which frightened Su Tianhua into returning the gift, "Second Miss, you are serious, this is Tianhua's responsibility.
Don’t dare to take it seriously.”
After getting off the boat, there were two carriages waiting beside the ferry.
Qiu He helped Lin get into the car in front, while Su Jinxin, Fan Yichu, and Qiaolan sat in the car behind. Guard Lou and several guards from the Su family rode on horseback to accompany them.
The carriage galloped and soon entered Songyang County.
Dong dong dong... A burst of gongs and drums sounded in Songyang County, where people were coming and going.
"Common people, listen, if you find anyone acting suspiciously, you must go to the Songyang County Government Office immediately and inform Mr. Su. Otherwise, you will be severely punished!"
Dong dong dong...
Su Jinxin got off the carriage and walked a few steps before she saw the county government officials beating gongs and drums and shouting. In the middle of these officials was a blue official sedan, with three squads of government officials guarding it on both sides.
, majestic.
"Bah, corrupt officials!"
In the crowd, Su Jinxin heard someone curse at the county magistrate in the official sedan, and then the curse never stopped.
When Su Tianyao was the county magistrate in Songyang County, he always liked to create clever names and levy all kinds of exorbitant taxes. He also liked to indulge his subordinates, rape women and prey on the common people. Su Jinxin had heard about it. Now he saw it with his own eyes and heard about it.
The people who came to Songyang County cursed Su Tianyao in a low voice one by one. They felt a little gloating in their hearts and couldn't help but said, "He is indeed a corrupt official." Good curse.
"Sister, who is the corrupt official!"
Su Jinxin spoke in a low voice, but Fan Yichu shouted loudly. This shout could not be heard by the county officials, "How dare you insult the county magistrate!" They gathered around without hesitation.
.
"He is a corrupt official, why can't I scold him!" Sister Su said that he was a corrupt official, so the county magistrate must be a corrupt official. Because Guard Lou was there, Fan Yichu cursed loudly over and over again, "Corrupt official, corrupt official, corrupt official...
…”
The people present took a breath in fright, but they all admired Fan Yichu. He had such courage at a young age and dared to speak out for justice, which was rare.
When Fan Yichu shouted, the people of Songyang County, who were deeply oppressed by Su Tianyao, also shouted, "Corrupt officials, corrupt officials...!"
"Do you want to rebel?" These people under Su Tianyao were used to doing evil. Now when they saw these people making trouble with Fan Yichu, they pulled out the knife from their waists and said fiercely, "Rebels will be killed without mercy!"
"The government is forcing the people to rebel. I don't think this is what Mr. Su wants to see." Su Jinxin pulled Fan Yichu to her side. With a look, Lou Tian stepped forward, kicked the arrogant yamen away, and then
He stepped forward without moving the long sword in his hand, and two or three more officials fell to the ground.
Here, Lou Tian and the Su family's nursing staff started fighting with the officials from Songyang County. On the other side, Su Tianyao, who heard the report from the officials, said angrily, "I want to see who is under my jurisdiction."
Making trouble inside."
"Cousin Tianyao." The official officer of the county government was the opponent of Guard Lou. He was beaten by Lou Tian twice and his limbs were broken. He was wailing on the ground. Therefore, Su Jinxin left before Su Tianyao could get out of the official sedan.
Came over.
And when Miss Su Er shouted, the county government officials who were fighting were shocked. Oh my God, the flood rushed into the Dragon King Temple, and they actually offended my cousin. It is said that my cousin
A cousin is such a ruthless character that even adults are afraid of her. The more she thinks about it, the more these officials tremble with fear.
"Why did you come to Songyang County?" Su Tianyao naturally had a bad look when he saw Su Jinxin.
"I was going to Lin's house in Chuzhou and I just happened to pass by." Miss Su Er said bluntly.
"Su Jinxin, this is our Songyang County. I give you an order and you won't be able to step out of here today." Su Tianyao was furious. Su Jinxin, a cousin, was just domineering in the Su family.
Dare to act recklessly in Songyang County, "Huh, even if you are my cousin, if you insult the imperial official, I can still punish you!"
"Guard Guard Lou, I'll leave it to you." Second Miss Su took a step back. Amid Su Tianyao's shock, Lou Tianfei stepped forward and grabbed Su Tianyao who was sitting in the official sedan with one hand, and fell to the ground.
"Bold, I am an official of the imperial court!" Su Tianyao was immediately thrown to the ground with a bruised face and a bruised face.
good!
The people of Songyang County who were watching applauded, "Well done!"
"What happened recently?" Based on her understanding of Su Tianyao, if something big hadn't happened, he must have been hiding in the county government office for fun. How could he leave the county government office.
Su Jinxin knelt down and took off the black gauze on Su Tianyao's head with one hand. Su Tianyao was stepped on the ground by Lou Tian and could not move. With a sad face, he began to please Su Jinxin, "Cousin Jinxin, we
We are a family, let him let go of his cousin, he is the county magistrate here after all, this...how will my cousin gain a foothold in Songyang County from now on."
"Sister is asking you something, corrupt official." Fan Yichu kicked Su Tianyao hard, "Speak quickly."
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you." Su Tianyao was greedy for life and afraid of death. He didn't care about his face at the moment. He said truthfully, "This is an order from the prefect. The Lin family chooses a son-in-law. The prefect doesn't want thieves to sneak in."
, Secondly, I heard that an important minister of the court was recuperating in the Lin family. In order to protect this gentleman, the prefect ordered all the county offices in the prefecture to cooperate as much as possible. "
"An important minister in the court." Su Jin was suspicious.
"Yes, he has reached a position of great power at a young age. I also heard that although the Lin family seems to be choosing a son-in-law with great fanfare, Mr. Lin actually likes that adult the most... Oops, it hurts..." Yi'er
, I am your cousin, oh...it hurts me to death..." This little bastard was really cruel, each kick was harder than the last.
"You are a corrupt official, and corrupt officials deserve to die." Fan Yichu finished kicking Su Tianyao, then placed Su Tianyao's black gauze hat on the ground, stepped on it several times, and then kicked it violently, sending the black gauze hat into the crowd.
As a result, the people of Songyang County, who usually dared to be angry but dared not speak out, became excited. Anyone who saw Su Tianyao's black gauze hat stepped on it to vent his anger. If the black gauze hat was Su Tianyao, I am afraid that Su Tianyao would be trampled to pieces at this moment.
"You..." Su Tianyao was almost crying now. This little ancestor actually kicked his black gauze hat as a ball. If the court knew about this, he, a seventh-grade county magistrate, would not be able to survive. I think he studied hard for more than ten years in a cold window.
In 1999, he passed the Jinshi examination and finally became an official, but his face was ruined and his official position was lost due to Su Jinxin, a brother and sister.
The Songyang County officials on the side all cowered and did not dare to step forward. They were not very clear about the Su family's affairs. In addition, with Guard Lou around, they were no match for Guard Lou, so they all chose to bow their heads.
, turning a blind eye, and said secretly, Sir, that is your cousin, we don’t dare to offend, just take care of yourself.
"What's that gentleman's last name?" Although Su Jinxin vaguely guessed it, she still asked in disbelief.
"Say it." Fan Yichu grabbed Su Tianyao's hair with one hand.
"Hey, my little aunt and little ancestor, I'm just a seventh-grade county magistrate. I can't even enter the Lin family's house. How do I know..." If he had known it was Su Jinxin, his cousin, he would have brought his hand.
The yamen officer under his command ran away far away. Su Tianyao was so regretful that his intestines were green. It was okay. What was he doing out there? Anyway, it was the prefect who wanted to curry favor with that gentleman, so what did he have to do with it?
