Traveling through the Republic of China, I married a dead person

Su Bai wanted to go to the county government to take a look, but then he thought that it might not be a good thing if he went there. Kong Chen came back this time mainly to target him for confiscating Kong Zhengliang's right to collect rent. If he looked for him now, he would become even more aggressive.

We can only ask Zhou Beiwang to keep an eye on it and report any news immediately. If Kong Chen wants to kill Yuan Yuze, please ask him to find a way to dissuade him.

In fact, Su Bai knew that for Zhou Beiwang, this sentence was the same as not saying anything. Kong Chen was his superior, and he could do nothing about what Kong Chen wanted to do.

He only had the responsibility of reporting the news.

A few minutes after Zhou Beiwang left, Kong Chen returned to the Kong Mansion.

He deliberately walked with a bowed step, sticking out his belly, and holding a gun in his hand. Dozens of soldiers followed him, who should have been brought back from Tianlong County.

As soon as dozens of soldiers entered the courtyard, they lined up in front of the doors of the east and west wing rooms. Each of them had a gun stuck on the ground and stood at his side, looking very majestic.

This is for Su Bai to see.

"Call Su Bai over to me!" Kong Chen said to Guo Deyi who was standing in the yard and trembling with fear.

"I'm here, no need to call!" Su Bai walked out from the lobby.

Now that things have come to this, I no longer need to call him Second Master respectfully as I did before.

Kong Chen came to the steps and stood beside Su Bai: "I haven't seen you for a few days. You have grown up, huh?"

Su Bai ignored him.

"Bring the man up!" Kong Chen waved his fat hand, and Yuan Yuze was brought into the yard from outside the door, tied up. Following behind him was a man in a Chinese jacket, Kong Zhengliang.

"Brother!" Zi Yan just ran from the backyard to the front yard and saw Yuan Yuze.

Several concubines also came to the front yard from various courtyards. The fifth concubine grabbed Zi Yan, who was crying and trying to rush forward.

"Come in?" Kong Chen said to Su Bai, "You don't want me to lose face in public, right?"

Face means nothing, but Su Bai had to listen to him at this moment and followed him into the house. Kong Zhengliang also followed him into the house, stumbling.

The two soldiers immediately stood outside the door.

Su Bai saw that several concubines were already standing on the steps outside the door, looking inside.

Kong Chen raised his head slightly, and Kong Zhengliang immediately handed him a piece of paper covered with words. It was an agreement.

The Kong family's more than 800 acres of fertile land are mainly used to grow wheat. Almost all of the wheat production is provided to Kong Chen as military rations. After the wheat is harvested, they plant corn, cabbage and other crops. Some of this production will be left for the farmers as food, and most of it will be collected by Kong Zhengliang as rent and then turned into money.

But before, Kong Zhengliang had only been asked verbally to accept it. This time, Kong Chen wanted Su Bai to sign the agreement.

The income of the Confucius Mansion was the same as before, only enough to provide food for the whole family.

Kong Chen slammed the gun in his hand on the table and said, "Let's make a pledge?"

Kong Zhengliang came over and pushed the agreement in front of Su Bai: "Madam, you should know the current situation. Commander Kong is very polite to you. The county magistrate and the special commissioner have been tied up like dumplings."

"Bah!" For the first time in his life, Su Bai spat on someone's face: "Who do you think you are?"

He turned to Kong Chen and said, "The land belongs to the Kong family, not to your army. I won't sign this pledge!"

"Ah?" Kong Chen stood up and rolled up his sleeves: "If I didn't see you were pregnant, I would have killed you right now!"

Outside the door, the third concubine shouted, "She is not the eldest young lady of the Kong family at all, and the child in her belly is not the eldest young master's!"

Kong Chen turned around and said, "Shut up! It's up to me to decide whether it's the young master's child or not!"

Good man, he has the final say in this matter.

Just then, Kong Dai brought the eldest and second daughters to the door, but was blocked by two guards with gun racks when they tried to enter the house.

"Uncle, let us in!" Kong Man shouted, and Kong Yun followed suit.

Su Bai didn't know whether the arrival of these two little ancestors was a blessing or a curse. At the moment, she was too excited to care about so much.

"Let them in!" Kong Chen gave face to his two nieces. Kong Man and Kong Yun pulled Kong Dai into the house.

"Uncle, don't listen to their nonsense. Su Bai is my sister-in-law. I suspect that the rumors outside are also fabricated by them!"

Su Bai was stunned. Could it be that what Kong Man said was true?

It was immediately denied, saying that the third and fourth concubines didn't know so many details, it wasn't them.

This was just what Kong Man said in an emergency.

Su Bai just didn't expect that these two young ladies, who had ignored him for several days, would speak for him at this critical moment.

"Hehe," Kong Chen pinched the cheeks of Kong Man and Kong Yun, "Whether she is your sister-in-law or not, it depends on your second uncle's opinion."

He turned to Su Bai again: "Will you sign it?"

"No drawing!" Su Bai was determined to fight to the end.

Kong Chen was about to get angry when Kong Man and Kong Yun stood between him and Su Bai.

"What's the matter? Why do you want to sign it?" Kong Man took the agreement and took a look at it.

Kong Chen explained to her that this was how they had always done it before, and today he was just putting it in black and white to prevent Su Bai from regretting it again.

"Sister-in-law..." Kong Man suddenly showed a pleading expression: "This is nothing, just draw it."

The second young lady Kong Yun and Kong Dai also came to persuade Su Bai.

Su Bai saw Yuan Yuze being tied up in the yard. Through the gate of the Confucius Mansion, she also saw Zhou Beiwang standing at the entrance of the regiment and looking at this place. She also heard Zi Yan's crying faintly coming from the yard.

Suddenly, my heart softened.

"Okay, I have one condition." She pointed at Yuan Yuze in the yard: "Let him go."

"That's right. As long as you sign your promise, I will definitely give him a chance to live."

"Let the people go first."

"Sign your name first, and I'll let you go after you sign. I keep my word!"

Kong Dai handed over Su Bai's seal, which he had carved for Su Bai a while ago and had never used.

"Huh? Now it's formalized! That's good, that's good!" Kong Chen praised twice, and Kong Zhengliang quickly handed over the ink box.

Su Bai looked at the seal in his hand and suddenly remembered the seal that his master left for him before he died. So much time had passed and he had forgotten about this mysterious seal because he was so caught up in the chaos.

The clue to the batch of gold bars is not only the word "Dong" that the master didn't have time to say completely, but also the seal!

"Why, do you regret it?" Kong Chen asked.

"Oh, no, I keep my word." Su Bai stamped the agreement, and Kong Chen handed a copy to Kong Zhengliang.

"Let him go?" Su Bai asked after handing the seal to Kong Dai.

"Hehe, I promised to release him, and of course I will let him go. I will also give him a way out, but this way of survival depends on whether he has the ability to get there!" Kong Chen smiled proudly.

"What are you going to do?" Su Bai stood up.

"What are you doing? Did my people die in vain?" Kong Zhengliang shouted.

"Get out of the way!" Kong Chen scolded Kong Zhengliang and said to Su Bai. He would let the soldiers untie the rope on Yuan Yuze and let him turn around and run out the door.

"What do you mean?"

Kong Chen picked up the gun on the table: "I will only shoot once. If he can outrun my bullet, he is lucky. Otherwise..."

"You!" Su Bai was completely furious and rushed forward to grab his gun, but Kong Dai and the two young ladies hugged her: "Sister-in-law, you can only listen to your second uncle, there is nothing we can do."

Kong Chen added: "If you don't agree with my method, then I will just beat him to death, it will save trouble!"

Su Bai felt like his throat was blocked by something and he couldn't speak.

The blood supply to the brain is also insufficient, and the person becomes light-headed.

The ropes on Yuan Yuze were untied, a soldier said something to him, and Yuan Yuze turned around and ran out the door.

Kong Chen raised his gun and fired three shots in succession. Yuan Yuze fell at the gate of Kong Mansion.

The beast fired three shots instead of the promised one.

Su Bai fell to the ground in a dizzy state. In the last moment before she lost consciousness, she murmured eight words:

"If I don't take revenge, I will not be a human being."
