If one person says it, maybe no one will believe it, if two people say it, maybe no one will believe it. If a group of people say it...then others should think about it carefully...It's the same sentence: there is no smoke without fire. Since such rumors will happen,
This shows that there is indeed something wrong with Han Mingguang's style. Moreover, Han Mingguang's reputation is very bad, so everyone naturally regards Han Mingguang as a villain. Now that this rumor has appeared, many people have chosen to believe it.
Suddenly, everyone said that Han Mingguang was a beast in disguise and was not worthy of being a commander-in-chief! Han Yuanyuan also suffered a lot and was called a vixen. He even hooked up with his own father. It was really shameless.
The power of rumors is huge. At first, they only spread among the common people. Later, the guards and servants in the General Military Mansion also heard it. And then... Li Ming also heard it...
Hearing that his wife had cuckolded him, the protagonist was still his father-in-law! Li Ming was so angry that he went directly to Han Yuanyuan to question what was going on.
At first, Han Yuanyuan was kept in the dark and had no idea that she had become the protagonist of the story... After listening to Li Ming's questioning, Han Yuanyuan went crazy. She scolded Li Ming: "You are such a fool.
, you believe what the outside world says! You have some IQ, okay! Even if I, Han Yuanyuan, want to find a lover, I will not find my father. Besides, who is I, Han Yuanyuan? I act upright and sit upright, which I have never done before.
I'm sorry about you, Li Ming. If you don't believe it, I will die for you now!" At this point, Han Yuanyuan suddenly pulled out the dagger and put it directly across his neck. Han Yuanyuan wanted to die to prove his innocence.
.
"Don't! Don't be impulsive!" Han Yuanyuan flashed the dagger, and Li Ming was immediately frightened: "I was wrong. I shouldn't doubt you. I was really wrong. Put down the dagger quickly."
At Li Ming's plea, Han Yuanyuan finally put down the dagger.
"Li Ming, listen to me, you can doubt me about anything, except my loyalty to you." Han Yuanyuan said angrily: "Since I married you, I will love you well.
I will never do anything to regret you."
"Yes, yes, I did something wrong this time." Li Ming kept apologizing: "Actually, I care too much about you... so when I heard those words... I was angry... It's all because I was too impulsive.
, I didn’t calm down and think carefully...it’s my fault, it’s all my fault.”
"Remember your words, if you dare to doubt me again in the future, I will castrate you! Let you be a eunuch!" Seeing that Li Ming took the initiative to admit his mistake and his attitude was more sincere, Han Yuanyuan's anger weakened slightly: "I am now
I went to my father and asked him to investigate the matter clearly. I must find out the person who spread the rumors and cut him into pieces to relieve the hatred in my heart!" After saying this, Han Yuanyuan turned around and strode away.
go.
After Han Yuanyuan left, Li Ming's face darkened. Han Yuanyuan pointed at his nose and scolded him, which made him very embarrassed... Li Ming took a deep breath and secretly said to himself: Hold it back! You must hold it back! Wait until you are stronger.
After the amplitude is increased, you can feel proud and proud! You no longer need to pretend to be a grandchild!
…
Han Yuanyuan went directly to Han Mingguang, yelled anxiously and angrily, and finally forced Han Mingguang to immediately send people to arrest the rumor spreaders.
Han Mingguang was also very angry, and quite angry. What he cared about most in his life was Han Yuanyuan. Now that Han Yuanyuan had been wronged, how could he, as a father, let it go? Han Mingguang patted his daughter on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I
The person who spreads the rumor must be found out, cut into pieces, chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs!”
"Dad, this matter was obviously done deliberately. A few days ago, rumors were spread that you had an illegitimate child, and now they are spreading rumors that there is an improper relationship between us... This is obviously to destroy the reputation of our father and daughter. If
If we don't suppress it in time, once the rumors spread outside, we, father and daughter, will really be unable to live as human beings." Han Yuanyuan said through gritted teeth.
"I know, I will take care of this matter, so you don't have to worry." Han Mingguang nodded.
"That's it, I'm going back." After venting for a while, Han Yuanyuan left angrily.
"Asshole! Bastard! Damn it!!!" After Han Yuanyuan left, Han Mingguang's expression immediately changed. He grabbed the teacups and teapots and smashed them: "What a fool! I don't care who you are, you dare to spread rumors and destroy
With the reputation of our father and daughter, I will never let you go!!!"
Han Mingguang became anxious and directly sent a large number of people to arrest those who spread rumors in the city. As long as anyone dared to talk about Han Mingguang and Han Yuanyuan behind their backs, they would be arrested immediately, and their tongues would be cut out and their hands and feet chopped off, or they would be killed directly.
die.
Moreover, Han Mingguang also issued a decree: Neighbors should supervise each other. If one of them commits a crime and is caught, the other family will also be jointly liable and will need to be severely punished!
As soon as the law was promulgated, the people were full of complaints, and Han Mingguang's already bad reputation became even more bad.
How can the mouths of ordinary people be sealed so easily? Even though ordinary people are usually soft and weak, once you push them into a hurry, they will really dare to risk their lives against you. There is a saying that goes well: Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!
It really drives the people into a panic and will definitely make you walk around without food.
Being tortured repeatedly by Han Mingguang has put the people on the verge of collapse. As long as something happens again, the people may explode.
After being quiet for more than ten days, the rumor came out again. Compared with the last two rumors, the content of the rumor this time was more popular and eye-catching.
The content of the rumor is: Han Mingguang is ambitious, has secretly hid hundreds of thousands of taels of gold, and has kept a large number of dead soldiers in captivity, preparing to find the right time to seek the throne and usurp the throne!
As soon as this rumor came out, it caused a lot of abuse among the people. Before Han Mingguang could react, another rumor came out... Han Mingguang was the illegitimate son of a certain prince. He had hundreds of thousands of taels of gold and a large number of dead people in his private collection.
Scholars are all prepared for this prince, preparing to help him seek the throne in the future, and according to reliable information, this prince will soon break through the bottleneck and become a tenth-level warrior, fully qualified to compete for the throne!
Originally, the people were full of resentment towards Han Mingguang. Now as soon as the rumors spread, the people began to curse Han Mingguang for his ambition. Some people who were not afraid of death went directly to the gate of the General Military Mansion to demonstrate and curse Han Mingguang. In the end, these people were arrested.
Han Mingguang captured him and executed him secretly.
The more bloody methods Han Mingguang used to suppress, the more the people resisted. In just a few days, the two sides clashed several times, killing and injuring many people. The matter gradually escalated, and eventually the people above were alarmed.
…
That morning, Han Mingguang received news that the imperial envoy had come to Baihu City to investigate rumors. The so-called imperial envoy was an official personally appointed by the emperor. Holding the Shangfang sword in his hand, he had the power to kill first and report later.
After receiving the news, Han Mingguang stood at the door early in the morning to pick up the message. After waiting for several hours, the imperial envoy's motorcade slowly appeared.
"Han Mingguang, the humble commander-in-chief of the White Tiger Banner, respectfully welcomes the imperial envoy!" Han Mingguang walked a few steps forward and bowed in salute.
"General Soldier Han doesn't need to be extravagant." The imperial envoy looked very easy-going.
"Your Imperial Envoy, please come in. I have already prepared a banquet in the mansion..." Han Mingguang invited the Imperial Envoy into the mansion.
The Imperial Envoy did not refuse, got down from the carriage, walked into the General Military Mansion with square steps, hands behind his back. As he walked, he looked at the scene of the General Military Mansion: "Well, not bad, there are mountains and rivers, and the attic is towering...
… Mr. Han, you spent a lot of money building this government office, right?”
"Ah...it didn't cost much..." Han Mingguang shook his head hurriedly.
"How much does it cost?" The Imperial Envoy made up his mind to find out more.
"Uh...it only cost tens of thousands of taels of silver..." Han Mingguang said generally.
"Ten thousand taels? How many tens of thousands taels is it?" the imperial envoy asked relentlessly.
The corner of Han Mingguang's mouth twitched slightly: "More than thirty thousand taels of silver... Well, it's about this amount."
"Thirty thousand taels? That's a lot." The imperial envoy smiled lightly: "My government office only spent more than three thousand taels of silver, which is only one-tenth of yours. My annual salary is only two thousand taels.
, I would have to go without food for fifteen years to save thirty thousand taels."
"Well... in order to build this government office, I almost spent all my savings. My wife also pawned her dowry and barely scraped together 30,000 taels of silver." Han Mingguang said with a bitter smile: "
Thinking back now, it is really unnecessary and a bit extravagant and wasteful. If I could choose again, I would simply build a government office and the silver would never exceed two thousand taels."
"It's like you didn't say anything." The Imperial Envoy curled his lips and said, "How could time go back? Mr. Han, I don't mean anything else, so you don't need to be nervous."
"Haha...yes, yes, it is indeed a bit redundant for me to say this now." Han Mingguang said with a smile.
Accompanied by Han Mingguang, the imperial envoy came to the main hall, where there was a large table filled with a variety of dishes.
"Hey, it's really rich." The imperial envoy said with his tongue: "This table of dishes alone should cost at least a thousand taels of silver, and these bottles of fine wine are also very valuable, right? Mr. Han
You know how to enjoy life, and a casual meal can cost you thousands of taels of silver... Compared with you, I'm just a beggar."
From the moment he entered the door, the imperial envoy targeted Han Mingguang at every turn, and basically everything he said was thorny, which made Han Mingguang very depressed. However, due to the identity of the other party, Han Mingguang could only grit his teeth and endure it, and he couldn't help but do it.
Holding back, Han Mingguang waved his hands repeatedly: "The imperial envoy has misunderstood. I am usually very frugal. I only have two dishes and one soup for each meal. I only eat better during holidays." At this point, Han Mingguang said.
After a pause: "The reason why I bought so many dishes today is to entertain the imperial envoy. This meal has cost me several months of food expenses."
