My bad words were heard by all the civil and military officials in the court

With the evidence, Emperor Jingming quickly decided on the punishment for the family of Marquis Wenxin.

According to Ye Shengxin's instructions, they were driven to the thousands of acres of fertile land they had occupied and given seeds and hoes.

Let them farm until they die.

The minor official in charge of supervising them observed them for a few days and found that they did not need any supervision at all, as these people would continue to swing their hoes and sow seeds.

Look at them, they wanted to stop and rest countless times, but their bodies were out of control.

I feel uncomfortable all over as soon as I stop.

Among them, Wenxinhou was the most obvious.

As soon as I stop, I kneel down, and as soon as I kneel down, my whole body aches.

This led to him working the hardest and being the most unable to stop.

The young official was surprised and immediately reported the news he had discovered.

He was told directly by his superiors not to worry too much about this matter, and just to harvest the grain from the ten thousand acres of land on time.

After receiving the reply, the young official was puzzled.

Can these people really cultivate tens of thousands of acres of land?

With doubts in his mind, he once again came to the place where everyone was hoeing the fields at Wenxinhou Mansion.

After a few days, they found that these nearly 100 people had turned over nearly 2,000 acres of land.

Even cows can’t reach this speed!

He suspected there was something fishy going on.

But my subordinates reported that no one had ever helped these former benefactors.

Today's achievements are all the result of these noble people resting only two hours a day.

So hardworking?

The junior official sighed.

His eyes lit up and he said, "Prepare enough seeds. Since they like farming, let's give them the land on the hill next door that needs to be reclaimed."

"My subordinates will make arrangements now."

The young official stroked his beard happily.

With these people in hand, when the grain is harvested, he can add to his achievements.

There is hope for promotion!

Of course, these are all things for later.

At this time, Ye Shengxin and a group of ministers had just finished dealing with the affairs of Marquis Wenxin and had just left the Marquis' Mansion.

After turning a corner, I saw a funeral procession.

People died in the city every day, but the ministers did not find it strange.

They even think that the dead are more important and take the initiative to give way to the funeral procession.

But what surprised them was that Meng Da was also in this team.

The ministers suddenly lost their composure.

They carefully considered the people in Meng Da's family who might die.

It seemed that only his uncle Meng He, who was fifty years old, was suitable for burial.

Meng He has some connections with them and has a good reputation.

If he dies now, even if the Meng family falls into poverty.

As people who had some friendship in the past, they should at least give some money or gifts to show their appreciation, and say farewell or something.

So when the team arrived in front of them, the ministers headed by Zhang Liang were the first to stand up.

"Brother Meng." He said in a sad voice.

"Brother Meng."

"General Meng."

Seven or eight ministers looked at Meng Da together, their expressions filled with indescribable sadness.

This made Meng Da's expression freeze. He had been keeping his head down since he saw these ministers, fearing that they would find out that he was doing a second business.

Now that his name was called, he raised his head and had to greet them.

"My Lords, I, Meng Da, greet you all."

"Stop being so polite."

It had only been a few days since Meng Da lost his position as general, and they were not used to him saluting them.

Don’t you see that the way he calls himself makes his face look unhappy?

They understood and did not waste time, for fear of delaying Meng He's burial.

They all took out their silver.

"Brother Meng, don't be too sad. Your uncle's spirit in heaven only hopes that your Meng family can live a better life."

"Take this money and take care of your children and your uncle's family. This way, Meng He can rest in peace."

"Brother Meng, I am deeply sorry for your loss."

"General Meng, your uncle is gone. You have to stand up and take good care of your Meng family."

……

The ministers were talking at once, and Meng Da's head was buzzing.

His uncle Meng He died?

How can it be?

Wasn’t his uncle following behind the convoy?

He opened his mouth, wanting to say that you misunderstood.

But the purse in his arms was filled with heavy silver, which made him unable to speak as he was in extreme financial difficulty.

He glanced at his uncle Menghe who was holding the coffin behind him.

Just happened to meet his gaze.

His eyes asked him what to do?

The coffin blocked the view of the people on the left. Meng He, who was on the right, lowered his head deeply and let him accept it.

At the same time, stay close to the coffin to prevent yourself from being discovered.

Today, all the wealth of the Meng family added up to less than ten taels of silver. It can be said that the money was sent by the ministers very promptly.

Maybe he could buy the yard of Miss Huang Mian's mother-in-law's house, so that their whole family would have a place to settle down.

Understanding his uncle's meaning, Meng Da went along with it and kept his purse.

She even pretended to be sad and cried a few times.

"If Uncle knew that you all cared so much about him, he would definitely be grateful to you all."

Huang Mian stood aside and listened to these people talking about Meng He in front of her mother-in-law's coffin, her brows tightly furrowed.

Isn’t Meng He still alive?

How come it died in their mouths?

After all, she knew a little about Meng Da's background and understood that she could not get involved in this matter, so she did not say anything.

But Ye Xingxin saw her.

[Hey, isn’t this Miss Huangmian? ]

[Is he attending his mother-in-law's funeral? ]

[But why is General Meng Dameng in this team? ]

【What is the relationship between the person in the coffin and him? 】

Ye Shengxin directly exposed Meng He and Meng Da's plan with just a few words.

Under the gaze of many ministers, Meng Da held the purse tightly in his hand and explained calmly:

"My Lords, although my uncle is still alive, this day will come sooner or later."

"Just think of this as funeral money given in advance."

"If my uncle knew this, he would be very pleased that you all valued our friendship so much."

"I'll come visit him some other day when he's free."

There was a coffin behind Meng Da, and he said in front of everyone that Meng He was going to visit them.

Everyone had goosebumps all over their body.

Look, is this human language?

How could a nephew curse his uncle to death?

He also cheated them of money in the name of his uncle.

It is really……

Several ministers attached great importance to such matters after his death and grabbed Meng Da by the collar and wanted to punch him.

"Everyone, please don't hurt the harmony."

The person involved, Meng He, could no longer hide and hurried over to stand in front of his nephew.

You know, if he was beaten, he would have to see a doctor, and his family wouldn't have that much money.

"Meng He, I wonder if you are right behind us."

"You just let your nephew set you up like that!"

"Meng He, since you are not in the coffin, who are you and your nephew burying?"

Meng He rubbed his hands awkwardly: "The person in this coffin is Miss Huang's mother-in-law, and we are her tenants."

"Come here to attend a funeral, that is...that..." He chuckled.

"Everyone knows that I have many jobs, right?"

“It’s all about supporting the family.”

"I, Meng He, have accepted your generosity. Just consider it as an advance donation to me."

"If you all really feel cheated, I will give myself a funeral someday when I have more money."

"When the time comes, everyone can come and have fun, and there's no need to pay any more money."

Everyone:...

Look, is this human language?

Nowadays, he is becoming more and more shameless for money.

Ye Xingxin: [Wow, this Uncle Menghe has quite avant-garde ideas.]

【Not bad. 】

System: [Yes, he is the one who is sending off his own funeral. Uncle Meng can even know in advance where he will be buried in the future and what materials the house will be made of.]

[It would be nice to feel whether this house is comfortable or not in advance. ]

[Much better than these ministers who have no idea of ​​what will happen after death. ]

[After all, we will be living in that place for thousands of years, so we can't be careless at all.]

【You can feel at ease if you go and see it yourself. 】

Ye Shengxin nodded as he listened.

[Yes, but they can’t envy this. ]

[They are limited in their thinking. Even if they have the courage, they would not be able to do such a thing.]

Everyone:...

Even though I don't have the courage, what can I do?

What's going on? I feel a little moved.
