MTL - Drunk House-Chapter 544 Blessing (two more)
Chapter 544 Blessing (second update)
This time I came to Jibei City, less than a month since the last time, but there have been obvious changes in Jibei City.
If it is said that the sky of Jibei City last time was covered by dark clouds, and the whole Jibei City was oppressive and gloomy, then today’s Jibei City is bright and lively. Although it is still winter, it is full of vitality everywhere.
This is the newly appointed state capital, thanks to Su Xingze.
Everyone in the Zhang family was imprisoned. After the court order was issued, the Zhang family was punished by the nine clans. Because Su Rong pleaded for Zhang Mao, the prince extrajudicially merciful, Zhang Mao's mother and younger brother were exempted from the death penalty and sentenced to exile.
Su Rong sat in the Drunken Goose Square, and gave Su Xing a thumbs up, "Brother, it's amazing. In a short period of time, it changed the look of Jibei City."
"I would like to thank the two members of the Zhang family. When I was in the army, they learned that I was going to take up a post in Jibei City, so they sent someone to help me. They are most familiar with Jibei City. If someone helps me, I will naturally get started very quickly." Su Xing said.
Su Rong nodded, and asked while gnawing on the drunk goose: "Zhang Mao's mother's younger brother, before he was exiled, did he see Zhang Mao?"
"See you." Su Xing said: "I sent people to send them to the army before exile, but it is said that after seeing Zhang Mao, Zhang's mother yelled and even used a knife to kill him. Originally, it was not difficult to arrange them secretly to avoid the suffering of exile, but when something like this happened, Zhang Mao did not mention resettlement, and the government sent someone to send them to the place of exile."
"If Zhang's mother is smart, she should know that Zhang Mao would have died long ago without Zhang Mao taking refuge in me, and the Zhang family would not be able to win the world. It is also the fate of the Zhu Jiu clan. The reason why she was saved from being punished should be thanks to her for giving birth to a good son. Otherwise, her most beloved youngest son would also die. Now that her two sons are alive, where did she hate Zhang Mao? She even used a knife against him?" Su Rong said: "The only two smart people in the Zhang family are Zhang Mao and Zhang Yun. That's all."
Su Xing said: "Mrs. Zhang is probably dreaming of being a queen. Now that the dream is shattered, she naturally hates Zhang Mao. She is full of anger and blames him for harming the Zhang family."
"Ridiculous." Su Rong commented.
Su Xing said: "That's fine, Zhang's mother and Zhang Mao have also completely cut off their mother-child relationship, and Zhang Mao doesn't have to worry about his kindness anymore."
Su Rong asked: "Is he seriously injured?"
He had already suffered a leg injury, but before he recovered, he was stabbed again.
"Heavy, but with Doctor Zhang here, there is no danger of life." Su Xing said: "Originally he could escape, but he didn't."
Su Rong nodded, she could guess that Zhang Mao didn't hide his mind at that time, and cut off the family relationship with a single knife. Since her mother can do anything to him, he doesn't have to worry about the relationship between mother and child anymore.
Su Xing said again: "The gold and silver in the Zhang family's private treasury, and what is on the books, have been filled into the national treasury."
"What about the ones that are not on the books?" Su Rong asked.
Su Xing looked at her, "Zhang Ping was holding onto what wasn't on the books, but when Zhang Ping died, it naturally fell into Zhang Yun's hands. A few years ago, Zhang's family mined a gold mine and used it to raise soldiers. I don't know how much was used and how much was left. Because Zhang Yun is yours, I didn't ask anyone to investigate the confiscation."
Su Rongxiao, "Since it's in Zhang Yun's hands, even if you check it, you won't be able to find it out."
"It can't be found out in a short time, but it doesn't mean it can't be found out in a long time. The difficulty is not to find out, but to let him spit it out." Su Xing said: "But since he is already your person, there is no need for this. I will tell you, and I will report this matter to His Royal Highness."
Su Rong nodded and asked Su Xingze, "Brother, do you know where the 300,000 soldiers and horses I borrowed from the imperial court at the border come from?"
Su Xing was taken aback, "You didn't pay the army?"
"Did not give."
Su Xing looked at her, "Because the 300,000 yuan was originally the Northern Hebei Army raised by the captured Zhang Ping privately, it was not in the imperial court's establishment, and the imperial court did not allocate military pay."
Su Rong laughed suddenly, "So, I don't need to worry about it, and no one asks me for military pay. It should be Zhang Yun who is raising these 300,000 soldiers and horses."
Su Xing put his hand on his forehead and rubbed it, "I actually ignored this matter." He asked: "When you go to Beijing this time, you ask the imperial court to borrow troops, is there any difficulty?"
Su Rong shook his head, "No, His Majesty readily agreed, and it doesn't make sense for important officials in the court. I signed the agreement, and the 300,000 soldiers and horses can be taken away with the tiger charms and His Majesty's imperial decree."
Su Xing nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."
After dinner, they left Drunken Goose Square, and Su Xing took Su Rong back to the government office.
On the way, he asked Su Rong, "How are the mother and sisters at home? I went back to Jiangzhou and met my father and aunts. How are they?"
"It's all good." Su Rong said: "Mother is reluctant to part with me, I promise her to stay in Nanchu to gain a firm foothold, and take her to live for a while."
Su Xing smiled, "It's good for you to leave, and take away mother's heart."
Su Rong pursed her lips and smiled, "Let me give you an idea. You get married earlier, and your mother will designate her to be by your side for the sake of her grandson."
Su Xing laughed angrily, "In that case, let's tie you down!"
After returning to the government office, Su Rong didn't go to rest. Su Xing handled official business, and she also went to the study to accompany her. She stayed for half a day until she had dinner, and she continued her journey and left Jibei City.
Su Xingze was going to send Su Rong out of the city, but she stopped her firmly, "Brother, stay here. In the capital, I didn't ask anyone to send me off. In Jiangzhou, my father and aunts wanted to send me off, but I didn't agree. Now that you are in Hebei, you don't want to send me off, so as not to make me feel uncomfortable."
Su Xing had no choice but to stop at the door and look at her.
Su Rong took the initiative to reach out and hugged him, "Brother, my parents will always be my parents, you will always be my elder brother, and my aunts and sisters will always be my aunts and sisters. Even if I go to Nanchu, these things will not change."
Su Xing's eyes turned red, and he touched her head with his hand, "It's good that you know, take care."
"Yes." Su Rong let him go and got into the carriage.
The carriage went away, while Su Xing stood at the gate of the mansion, until the figure of the carriage and horse disappeared, he still stood for a long time.
He recalled the scenes of his past with Seventh Sister since childhood. At that time, I thought that he would worry about her for the rest of his life. After all, she was too much to worry about. Even if he married someone, he, as the eldest brother, would not have to worry about it. Maybe he would beat his brother-in-law every now and then because of her. He never thought that she would go to Nanchu, and one day she would be thousands of miles away from him, and he would not be allowed to follow her.
Then, he can only wish her that everything goes well, that she is honored in your land, and that she will be happy and peaceful every year in the future.
Babies, monthly pass, what?
