Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather
Chapter 198 Placing bets and seeking help
"If you encounter any trouble on the way, arrange for someone to come back and send a message to me!" Yang Zhengshan stood in front of Yu Qingyi and said softly.
"Well, don't worry, Master, there will be no trouble!" Yu Qingyi looked at him tenderly.
After two years of marriage, this is the first time they have separated. Although they have only been separated for a few days, they are still reluctant to part.
Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, turned to Ding Qiu next to him and said: "After you go out, don't look back and forth. If someone dares to cause trouble, don't worry about the other party's identity!"
After all, this world is not a society ruled by law. Sometimes even if you don't take the initiative to cause trouble, there will be trouble to you.
So Yang Zhengshan is a little worried that Yu Qingyi and others will encounter trouble.
"Well, Master, don't worry, as long as the old slave is not dead, I will definitely protect the safety of the lady!" Ding Qiu said solemnly.
For Ding Qiu, the Yang family is not only his main family, but Yang Zhengshan is also the benefactor of his whole family.
If Yang Zhengshan hadn't bought his family back, their family might have been broken up.
After coming to the Yang family for several years, he and his family lived very happily.
Compared with the time when they were in the Zhang family before, their life in the Yang family was not like that of slaves.
Although the Yang family also had many rules, everyone in the Yang family was very tolerant in treating the servants. As long as they did not make mistakes, there would be no inexplicable beatings and scolding.
Although his cultivation has reached the fifth level of the acquired realm, he still has no disloyalty to Yang Zhengshan and the Yang family.
If necessary, he is really willing to die for the Yang family.
Yang Zhengshan looked at the serious Ding Qiu, smiled and patted his shoulder, and said: "Don't say anything about life and death, it's unlucky, I'll wait for you to come back safely!"
"Yes!" Ding Qiu smiled faintly and responded with a firm look in his eyes.
This is why he is willing to die for Yang Zhengshan. Yang Zhengshan never treated him as a slave and never treated their lives as something that can be discarded at will.
Everyone got on the carriage, and the team slowly left. Yang Zhengshan looked at the team going away and raised his head to look at the clear sky.
The weather has been very good in recent days, and they should have a smooth journey.
…
Just as Yang Zhengshan sent Yu Qingyi and others away, a group of miserable prisoners were repairing the road under the command of the police on the construction site outside Anyuan City.
In the past two years, the two main official roads to the south and west of Anyuan Prefecture have been repaired. The roads being repaired now are the roads leading to villages and towns around Anyuan City.
These roads are very simple to repair, and they can be compacted with cement as the foundation.
And because this task is not urgent, the prefectural government only used some prisoners to work.
According to Yang Zhengshan, this is labor reform.
Lin Shoude is very positive about this behavior of using free labor. Now the prison in the prefectural government is empty, and all the prisoners have been sent here to work.
At this time, on the busy construction site, several followers in blue shorts are surrounding a young man in brocade clothes. This young man in brocade clothes is the son of Jingyuan Marquis Mansion who was sent by Yang Zhengshan yesterday.
Jingyuan Marquis's surname is Su, and this son is Su Shansi.
At this time, Su Shansi was very angry and furious.
The anger in his heart seemed to be burning his internal organs, making him want to roar and shout.
He was the sixth son of the Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion. Even in Kyoto, he was considered a top figure.
As a result, in this remote Anyuan City, he was caught here to work!
Doing such a dirty job!
Just looking at these lowly things, he couldn't help but want to beat and kill these untouchables.
And looking at the officers blocking his way, he was even more furious and couldn't help but want to chop people with a knife.
"You idiots, do you know who this young master is?"
"Where is your prefect? Let him roll over to see me!"
Su Shansi roared angrily.
He had enough. He wanted to leave here. He wanted to tear that ignorant garrison into pieces.
A group of officers supervising the prisoners were really scared by this.
They were just a group of ordinary officers. It was OK for them to deal with some ordinary prisoners, but they really couldn't face the group of ferocious followers around Su Shansi.
And they could also see that Su Shansi's identity was not simple.
If Yang Zhengshan's followers were here, these people would naturally have no chance to clamor. Yang Zhengshan's followers didn't care about the background of these people. As long as Yang Zhengshan had an order, they would unswervingly execute it to the end.
However, these officers in front of them obviously did not have the confidence to suppress Su Shansi.
"A bunch of lowly things, didn't you understand what I said? Call your prefect to me." Su Shansi shouted with a sullen face.
The officers looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know how to deal with this matter.
But at this time, another group of officers came not far away, and Lin Shoude was surrounded by this group of officers.
Lin Shoude came to inspect. Winter was coming soon, and he wanted to see if he could finish repairing this road before winter.
Lin Shoude heard Su Shansi's voice, walked closer, and looked at Su Shansi with a puzzled look.
"Who are you?"
Su Shansi also noticed Lin Shoude, "Who are you?"
"I am the prefect of Anyuan Prefecture!"
"You are the prefect!" Su Shansi's face showed a cruel look.
"I am the sixth son of the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion. Let me leave here quickly, otherwise I will make you lose your official hat!"
"..."
After hearing this, Lin Shoude looked at Su Shansi as if he was a fool.
Let's not talk about whether you are the son of the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion. Even if you are, why do you want me to lose my official hat?
Have you asked the Ministry of Personnel?
Or do you think the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion has the ability to influence the Ministry of Personnel?
Damn, he has never seen such a shameless idiot since he grew up!
That's right, at this time Lin Shoude thought Su Shansi was an idiot.
The power of the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion is not small. The current Marquis of Jingyuan is the governor of the Fenwu Camp of the twelve camps of the Kyoto Imperial Army. In charge of the Fenwu Camp of the twelve camps of the Imperial Army, the Marquis of Jingyuan is also very important.
But the question is, can the nobles interfere in the affairs of the six ministries?
Of course not.
Let alone Marquis Jingyuan, even if it is Duke Ningguo, ask him if he dares to interfere in the affairs of the six ministries in the court?
If he dares, the old emperor will dare to execute the whole family of Duke Ningguo.
If the nobles and generals can interfere in the affairs of the six ministries in the court, how can the old emperor feel at ease?
Su Shansi can say such words, which only shows that this guy is a fool. He doesn't even know the most obvious rules in the court. He dares to talk nonsense here, and he is not afraid of bringing disaster to the Marquis Jingyuan Mansion.
If this word reaches the ears of the old emperor, Marquis Jingyuan will definitely not have a good result.
"What's going on?"
Lin Shoude asked the officer next to him.
The officer immediately stepped forward and whispered the general story.
"Did Lord Yang say how long he should stay here?"
"Well, Lord Yang's personal attendant didn't explain!" The officer replied.
Lin Shoude glanced at Su Shansi and his followers and said, "Then let them stay here for three months. If they don't work, they won't be given food! I don't keep idle people here!"
"This!!" The officer was a little distressed, "Sir, if they resist, what should we do?"
Lin Shoude glared at him and said, "Aren't there soldiers from the garrison over there? If they dare to resist, let the soldiers from the garrison come and kill them!"
Yang Zhengshan was not afraid of the Jingyuan Marquis' Mansion, let alone Lin Shoude.
At this time, Lin Shoude didn't care about the Jingyuan Marquis' Mansion at all. Since Yang Zhengshan sent people here, let them work honestly.
As for the rest, if he cared about these, he would not have been excluded to Anyuan Prefecture.
However, Su Shansi was stunned when he heard his words.
What's going on?
Why are the officials here not afraid of their Jingyuan Marquis' Mansion?
In Kyoto, he couldn't be arrogant and domineering, but why couldn't he do whatever he wanted when he came to this remote little place?
It would be fine if they couldn't do what they wanted, but why did they target him so recklessly!
"You, you dog official!"
Su Shansi was so angry that he pointed at Lin Shoude and cursed him.
Lin Shoude glared at him fiercely, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you with a stick!"
Su Shansi trembled all over and almost cried.
He really wanted to cry.
Wow, the officials in Anyuan City are too bullying!
They are not afraid of their Jingyuan Marquis Mansion and dare to let him, the son of the Marquis Mansion, do such a humble job.
At this time, the anger in his heart was like being extinguished by a basin of cold water, and the whole person fell into a daze.
His cognition was broken, his arrogance was shattered, and now there was only panic and fear in his heart.
Unfortunately, Lin Shoude didn't know these emotions in his heart at all. Seeing that he was not talking, he gave a few instructions to the officers and left.
After he left, the officers shouted to Su Shansi vigilantly: "Why are you still standing there? Get to work!"
Su Shansi's followers felt miserable.
They were guards, all warriors with cultivation. It was too shameful for them to work here.
They looked back at Su Shansi, but he was still immersed in his own confusion and had not come back to his senses at all.
The officers became alert when they saw that the group of people did not reply.
"I warn you, there is a team of soldiers from the garrison camp over there. If you dare to mess around, don't blame us if you are killed!" the officers shouted loudly.
"Young Master!" The followers also knew that they could not continue the confrontation like this, so they could only call out.
Su Shansi came back to his senses, looked around with lifeless eyes, and finally said with a sad face: "Get to work!"
As he said that, he walked towards the dusty construction site with tears in his eyes.
The thin and emaciated figure actually looked extremely sad at this moment.
Not far from the construction site, three figures were looking at this side.
"Miss, are we really not going to care about Mr. Su?"
A maid said to Ning Qing.
Ning Qing shook her head, "We can't care about his affairs. Didn't the garrison commander say that he wouldn't do anything to him! It's just some hard labor, it shouldn't be a problem!"
"And we have business to deal with. Tomorrow is the birthday banquet of the wife of the Marquis of Changping. We have to rush to Chongshan Pass as soon as possible!"
The purpose of their coming to Chongshan Town this time was to celebrate the birthday of the wife of the Marquis of Changping.
In fact, they originally came here by themselves, but they didn't expect to meet Su Shansi and his group on the way, so the two sides went together.
As for why Su Shansi chose to go with them, Ning Qing could guess his thoughts. He just wanted to win her favor, or should I say, win the favor of Qing'an Bo, so that Qing'an Bo would agree to the marriage of Jingyuan Marquis Mansion.
The current Qing'an Bo Mansion is naturally not comparable to Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, but don't forget that Qing'an Bo Mansion is the mother's family of the empress, and the current prince is the legitimate son of the empress.
Once the prince ascends the throne, Qing'an Bo Mansion will be the mother's family of the emperor.
Although Qing'an Bo Mansion has no power now, when the prince ascends the throne, Qing'an Bo Mansion will inevitably be conferred. It is estimated that it is impossible to confer the title of Duke, but it is completely possible to confer the title of Marquis.
If Qing'an Bo Mansion can show some ability at that time, it may be reused by the current prince.
Therefore, many nobles in Kyoto want to bet on Qing'an Bo Mansion in advance.
Ning Qing sees this very clearly.
Qing'an Bo also sees it very clearly.
Others want to bet on them, and they also want to find help from other places.
The help they were looking for was the Changping Marquis Mansion.
Ning Qing glanced at Su Shansi, who was buried in the dust, and shook her head slightly.
In fact, the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion was not bad, but it was a pity that this Sixth Master Su was too stupid.
"Let's go, it's time for us to set off!"
After saying that, she turned and walked towards the carriage parked behind.
In just a moment, the carriage drove towards the east under the escort of a dozen followers.
