Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 187 An unexpected treasure

Although the small courtyard is small, it has its own benefits. Although the big mansion is good, it also has its own troubles. When Yang Ming came to the former Hedong County Governor's mansion in Xianyang, he realized that the intuitive mansion was better than the one on plain silk. The lines are more vivid.

Even in the inner city of Xianyang, the size of this mansion is quite large. It is no more than a wealthy family. Although it is not as good as a mansion like the Meng family, in the inner city of Xianyang, it can definitely be regarded as a mansion. Entering from the main entrance, there are three lobbies in the front, middle and back. There are about a dozen small courtyards scattered around the two central and back lobbies. This is a place that can accommodate more than a hundred people.

However, taking care of such a mansion is quite troublesome.

At the very least, just a little Hu Ji will never be able to do it.

"Is this a little too big?" Sure enough, Hu Ji, who was following Yang Ming, could not hide her surprise. Although it was a good thing that the house was too big, she was the one doing the work.

"Such regulations can only be considered moderate, but Brother Yang is indeed considering taking in some slaves." Meng Tian, ​​who has almost recovered and can be said to be full of life, said from the side.

Yang Ming doesn't have many friends in Xianyang, and there are even fewer people who can accompany him to look at the house.

"I know, Brother Yang, you already have the title of Fifth Doctor. According to the regulations, you can have dozens of slaves. When the time comes, you can either find them from your own manor or buy them." I like to join in the fun and come with you. Meng Yi said.

"Let's talk about it. Now let's see how this mansion is like. Little Hu Ji, you can find a yard as your own residence." Yang Ming took the lead and walked into the mansion as he spoke.

At this time, there were still several petty officials and soldiers from Neishi Mansion in the mansion. When Yang Ming and Meng Tian arrived at a small courtyard, they found that dozens of people were crowded in the small courtyard.

"These people are the family members of the former Hedong County Governor and will soon be exiled to the Longxi border." The petty official responsible for checking the mansion explained to Yang Ming.

"Yeah." After knowing the identities of these people, Yang Ming roughly understood why some of these people looked at him with such anger. However, Yang Ming was too lazy to pay attention to these people. Their anger was related to What's the matter with him? In those angry eyes, Yang Ming's last trace of sympathy disappeared.

When Yang Ming was about to leave, a young woman pulled two little girls and rushed out under the obstruction of the soldiers. People like Yang Ming and Meng Tian naturally would not worry about the threat that young woman would pose to them. .

Sure enough, when the soldiers were about to stop him, the young woman had already pulled the two little girls and knelt on the ground: "Please be kind and accept my two daughters. They can serve as slaves and maids." My lord."

"Who are they?" Meng Tian frowned and looked at the clerk of the Neishi Mansion aside.

"Returning to Major General, she is the concubine of the former Hedong County Governor, and the two girls are her daughters." The clerk of Neishi Mansion quickly replied.

"If Master Zhongcheng is interested, I can issue a document and banish him to the land of Longxi. The master may be able to survive, but it will be difficult for a little girl like this to survive." The clerk of the Neishi Mansion said.

He had been favored by the governor of Hedong County, and if he could be of some help, he would naturally be very willing.

The land on the west side of Longxi is a place of bitter cold. The wealthy families may not be affected, but the life of homeless prisoners is extremely miserable. Even adults can hardly survive it, let alone such a group of people who are less than five years old. little girl.

Moreover, they are only daughters born from concubines, not legitimate daughters. They are not that important. They have room for manipulation, but it all depends on Yang Ming's wishes.

Looking at the woman with a pleading look on her face and the two little girls behind her who were trembling with fear, Yang Ming pondered: "Will there be any trouble?"

Yang Ming's sympathy for strangers was really limited, but if he could save two little lives with a little effort, Yang Ming wouldn't mind doing it.

"It's not troublesome. Because they are daughters of a concubine and they are still young, they are not on the household registration list." said the clerk of the Neishi Mansion.

"Then please help me issue such a document." Yang Ming had already left as he spoke.

Finally, Yang Ming came to the backyard and found a pavilion to sit down.

"Brother Yang, it seems that there are quite a lot of things to buy here." Meng Tian looked around and said.

"As long as you can live in it, as for the rest, take your time." Yang Ming said nonchalantly.

"Brother Yang, this is different. Now you have established a family. Many things are no longer a matter of whether you like it or not, but a matter of status and appearance." Meng Yi, who is already quite capable of being a housekeeper at a young age, stood aside. reminded.

"Identity and appearance? Can this kind of thing be exchanged for my own comfort?" Yang Ming said nonchalantly. His pursuit of power is not an end, but just a means, and he will not do anything against his will for the sake of power.

"That's what I said, but in the future, Brother Yang will inevitably welcome and send you off." Meng Yi reminded.

"Take your time, there's no need to rush this," Yang Ming said.

"By the way, Brother Meng, do you have any plans in the future?" Yang Ming asked.

Meng Tianxu was almost twenty years old, so he naturally wanted to join the army. Before that, he had already participated in the battle against Wei in the fifth year of Qin Wangzheng's reign. At that time, he was considered to have left the army. Now, Meng Ao was about to take off all his burdens. Since he had the position of general, he naturally had to make arrangements for Meng Tian before leaving.

"Grandpa is going to let me go to Pingyang." Meng Tian said.

"Pingyang Heavy Armor Army?" Yang Ming said without surprise.

In the original trajectory, Meng Tian originally went to the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army, and therefore, he got an opportunity three years later, an opportunity for him to become a confidant of the King of Qin.

"Yes, my grandfather said that the infantry combat capability of the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army is the strongest in the Qin State, and our Meng family is good at cavalry combat. We still need to practice in the Pingyang Heavy Armor Army to make up for my shortcomings." Meng Tian said.

"What position?"

"Based on his military exploits during the Battle of Qicheng, he was given the position of captain of thousands." Meng Tian said.

"That's not bad. It seems that the people under your command will soon surpass mine. I only have 200 people left under my command, and I can't even make up to 600 in a hurry." Yang Ming was so envious. Said jealously.

The guards of Ganquan Palace have not been able to fill up for a while, and Yang Ming is really a little pitiful now.

"How can it be compared?" Meng Tian said speechlessly. He had experienced Yang Ming's joking temper too many times, so how could he take it seriously.

"Work hard, Pingyang Heavy Armor Army is a good place, a place where you can really take off." Yang Ming said meaningfully.

"Could it be that Brother Yang has learned the prophecy and divination techniques of Taoism and Yin-Yang School?" Meng Yi asked.

"Of course I haven't learned it, but when it comes to the art of prophecy and divination, Taoism and Yin Yangism may not be as good as me." Yang Ming said confidently.

Although Yang Ming can't predict the art of divination, he can cheat. If we really talk about it, Taoism and Yin Yang are far behind.

"Brother Yang, this is not a joke. The mountain gate of the Second Heavenly Man Sect of Taoism is not far from Xianyang. There are also people from the Yin and Yang family in Xianyang. Be careful of people coming to your door." Meng Yi reminded.

"Then let them come to your door. Speaking of which, I have long wanted to meet people from the Yin and Yang family." Yang Ming glanced at somewhere inadvertently as he spoke. There was probably a very fierce and fierce person hidden there. The big guy.

"Why is there only the Yin-Yang family and not the two sects of Taoism?" Meng Yi asked curiously.

"Because the two sects of Taoism, Heaven and Man, are not good-looking." Yang Ming explained seriously.

What kind of existence is the Yin Yang Family? Can Yang Ming still not know?

From Dongjun to Moon God, to Da Siming, Shao Siming, and Mrs. Xiang, there is no one who is not the most powerful woman in the country. Dealing with such women is always more interesting than dealing with the two sects of Taoism. After all, the Yin Yang family truly led the aesthetics of this era.

"What's the reason? It's just enough to fool a child." Meng Yi said dissatisfied. He was an adult now, but did Yang Ming's words sound like he was completely deceiving a child?

"Maybe that's it?" Yang Ming said half-truthfully.

While a few people were chatting, the official from the Neishi Mansion came back with the young woman and two little girls from before.

"Lord Zhongcheng, this is a document issued by the Neishi Mansion. From now on, the two of them will be the servants of Mr. Zhongcheng." The clerk from the Neishi Mansion sent a volume of documents to Yang Ming.

"Thank you." Yang Ming took the document and unfolded it immediately.

"The sinful woman thanks you for your great kindness." The woman pulled her two daughters to kneel on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly.

The two girls beside her looked panicked when they saw their mother like this.

"Black and white, you must always remember my great kindness. From now on, I will be your master. You must listen to your words just like you listen to your father and mother." The woman pulled her two daughters with a look of reluctance. said.

She doesn't know whether her two daughters will live a better life in the future, but now she has no choice. If she brings her two daughters to the border of Longxi, it will be difficult for them to survive. Besides, being a slave in a powerful family will always be a waste. It's better than being a prisoner in Longxi.

I just hope that Yang Ming will be a good master. At least from the performance point of view, Yang Ming is kind, and at least he is willing to help them.

"Black, white?" Yang Ming looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, and when he heard the woman call her two daughters this way, he suddenly thought of a possibility.

No way? However, if this were not the case, what was the purpose of the thief hiding under the eaves?

I really have a destiny with the Yin Yang family. Yang Ming thought about putting away the bamboo slips and said to the woman: "The land in Longxi may not be a place of death. They may be able to take you back in the future."

"Yes." The woman was slightly startled, and then she understood Yang Ming's good intentions. People must have a thought in life. If not, it would be difficult to persist in a place like Longxi.
