Biography of the traitorous officials who dominated the Song Dynasty

Chapter 171 Tanabata
When Huan'er saw Pan Jinlian walking in, she immediately brought a stool and asked Pan Jinlian to sit down.

It turned out that Pan Jinlian suddenly came to Chunmei's room because she had something important to discuss with Earl Ying.

Pan Jinlian said: "My mother and those uncles and brothers followed the officers and soldiers from Qinghe County to Bianliang City."

"These damn short-lived ghosts actually mentioned to me that they want to double their monthly salary. Officer, what do you think?"

Earl Ying didn't know about this matter.

Cai Jing in the court sent two groups of officers and soldiers to Qinghe County.

The first time was to go to Earl Ying's mansion and bring the inheritance left to her by Li Ping'er's fancy old eunuchs from Qinghe County to Bianliang City.

The second time was half a month ago, when the second group of officers and soldiers went to Qinghe County and transferred all the things from Earl Ying's mansion to Bianliang City.

The servants and maids at home, such as Pan's mother, Pan Jinchun, Pan Jinyue and others.

Pan Yangji, Pan Yangming and others all followed the officers and soldiers to Bianliang City.

Earl Ying thought for a moment and said, "Actually, if the original salary has doubled, it doesn't matter much if it doubles like this."

"Think about it, no matter what, she is still your biological mother. It doesn't hurt to pay her more."

Unexpectedly, when Earl Ying said this, Pan Jinlian immediately became anxious.

She slapped her hand hard on the table and said to him: "Nonsense! Those people in my parents' family are all stupid people. How can I not count them in my heart?"

"If it were anyone else, they would have given us more money. After all, during the half year we were in Qinghe County, they served us well. They were conscientious and dedicated to their duties all day long."

"But if the wages of despicable people like them are doubled, let me ask, do they deserve it?"

As soon as these words came out, Earl Ying said nothing more.

Pang Chunmei sat in a daze, thinking over and over again about the nightmare she had this morning.

Li Ping'er said: "Since the eldest sister is unwilling to raise wages, we can just send them all away. Why bother and worry about it."

Pan Jinlian shook her head slightly and said, "That's not true. I really wanted to send them all away, but they didn't obey either."

"I can't let the officials send a line of soldiers and horses to beat them alive or beat them to death, right?"

"Hey! It doesn't matter whether he is a human or a dog, at least I don't want to get my hands dirty."

The fact that her natal family collectively proposed a wage increase really made this woman a headache.

In the end, several people in the room came up with a compromise.

It was neither serious enough to double the wages paid to Pan Jinlian's natal family, nor serious about maiming or beating them to death.

That is, on the basis of their original wages, each person will receive an increase of four taels of silver per month.

In terms of emotion and reason, this can be regarded as the utmost kindness and justice shown to them by Earl Ying's family.

The evening came quickly, and Earl Ying's colleagues in the court rushed to the house one after another to congratulate him.

The size of the ostentation is determined by the level of the official.

All the six thieves headed by Cai Jing and Gao Qiu were present.

Not surprisingly, Li Gang, who had developed a deep friendship with Earl Ying during the Bianliang defense battle, was also present.

Everyone congratulated Count Ying on his promotion.

Earl Ying said to everyone: "I, Lord Ying Guang, am able to achieve such a small achievement today because of your daily help."

"To be honest, we are both officials in the court, so we must do our best to relieve His Majesty's worries. I hope that from now on, we can work hard and work hard as always!"

What he said, "try hard and try harder", is exactly what he is talking about.

Li Gang laughed heartily, put his arm around Earl Ying's shoulders, and paced back and forth in the courtyard.

He told Earl Ying again and again that the second battle to defend Bianliang was fought very beautifully.Solidly caught Jinren by surprise, I believe that if this kind of battle happens again, he will still be like this time, completely disregarding his life.

Do your best and serve your country with all your loyalty.

Since Li Gang, Cai Jing, Gao Qiu and others were mortal enemies in the court, Count Ying specially divided Li Gang and them into two tables.

At this time, the night was dark and the bright moon was high.

On the temporary stage set up in the courtyard, a group of actors sang and performed, making the whole place filled with music and sounds of nature.

This year's Chinese Valentine's Day is also the happiest Chinese Valentine's Day for these women in the family.

In the past, several women were deeply beaten by life.

Everyone has their own difficulties, and they have nothing to do with happiness and joy.

But now that they have Earl Ying, they feel for the first time that the Chinese Valentine's Day is so fascinating.

Because the Jin people will withdraw their entire army in the next two days, they, who are loyal to the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, still need to deal with the big and small matters in the court.

So, everyone drank wine with Earl Ying until it was time for Haipai, and then went home one after another.

No one dares to delay tomorrow's morning meeting, otherwise, they will have to drink all night long.

I will never give up until dawn.

After everyone left, only Earl Ying and his family members were left in the courtyard.

On the stage, the actors who chanted and played still beat gongs and drums, played the erhu, the zither, the pipa, and the flute.

Huan'er asked several maids at home to remove the table in front of them and replace it with a new table, which was filled with a large table full of fine wine and delicacies.

Several women sat with Earl Ying, and Ying'er sat on Earl Ying's lap.

Li Ping'er said with a smile: "Now that all the officials are gone, let's have a good time celebrating the Chinese Valentine's Day."

Earl Ying and his family were eating, drinking and having fun at the dinner table until the fourth watch.

Seeing that half an hour had passed, it was almost dawn, and I was full of food and wine, so I got up and returned to the room.

Earl Ying decided to put all his "main battle force" tonight on Pang Chunmei.

The two women, Pan Jinlian and Li Ping'er, were of secondary importance.

Although Pang Chunmei was worried, her face was full of sentimentality.

But because she found good things with Earl Ying, her inner worries temporarily disappeared.

After just a few cups of tea, her pretty face was already flushed.

It seemed that Earl Ying's efforts were quite useful to her.

Beautiful Chunmei, naturally it is impossible to neglect Jinlian and Ping'er.

It was about dawn when Earl Ying fell into a deep sleep.

Several women lay on his left and right sides, feeling happy in their hearts, and fell asleep together with him.

Several women slept particularly soundly, of course, mainly because they had their husband by their side.

It is said that there are all kinds of joys and beauties in the human world that are similar to those in heaven and earth. In the eyes of these women, they are nothing more than this.

This year's Chinese Valentine's Day passed by in a hurry amidst the sounds of celebrations, music, and confusion and love in the warm and fragrant boudoir.

As soon as I woke up, there was no chance to look back or look back.
