Optimus One Pillar of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 238 Chapter 230 Six The house is restless
Hu Zongxian and Yin Zhengmao were both Dinghaishenzhen-level figures in Wang Daoqiu's future plans. Wang Daoqiu valued them more than he expected Zhang Juzheng.

So if Hu Zongxian didn't even dare to challenge Annan, then Wang Daoqiu would be very disappointed and reluctantly give up on him.

Fortunately, Hu Zongxian is a man with great ambitions, and his plans for his future are not just that of an official just waiting to die.So as soon as Wang Daoqiu finished speaking, he firmly stated that he was willing to go to Annan to challenge himself.

Hu Zongxian gave an answer that satisfied Wang Daoqiu, and Wang Daoqiu was very pleased.So Wang Daoqiu asked Hu Zongxian to read more information and become more familiar with the customs and customs in Jiaozhi during this period, and go to Jiaozhi with him in the spring of next year.He also hinted to Hu Zongxian that the court's next goal was to capture the city and Nanzhang.

Hu Zongxian is not a peaceful person. He is eager to make contributions. Now that he heard that going to Cochin is not only to consolidate the fruits of victory, but also to open up new territories. He was immediately excited. He wished to pack his luggage now and go to Cochin to start. His new life.

After conquering Hu Zongxian, a handsome man, Wang Daoqiu left Taicang and went home to recuperate.

As soon as he arrived at the door of the house, the old concierge Fan Er hurriedly came over and helped Wang Daoqiu lead his horse as usual. After Wang Daoqiu dismounted, he said in a panic and mysterious manner: "Master, it's not good, it's not good, six more people are staying at home today." I am said to be your bodyguard, and there are also twice as many guards in uniform at our gate. Master, what happened?"

"It's all right, it's all rewarded by the emperor. In addition, the house of the official prison in the original palace next to our courtyard, the emperor allocated ten acres for me. Someone will definitely come to the palace tomorrow to measure it. For those who are helping in the house, please help me."

"Hey, Master, I know, I know, I will definitely not lose you when the time comes."

There were suddenly so many officers and soldiers in the house today, which made Fan Er worried for a long time. He thought something had happened to his master!But now he heard Wang Daoqiu say that it was all rewarded by the emperor, and there would be ten acres more house in the house tomorrow, which made him happy.

After all, the dignity of these servants lies in the master's family. Just like Fan Er now, who among his acquaintances doesn't envy him!Ma De, a bad old man who knows nothing, is now the concierge of Zaifu's house. He eats delicious food and drinks spicy food every day. When he goes out, he has to curry favor with officials. What kind of shit luck do you think this is? !
Regardless of Fan Er's happiness, Wang Daoqiu stepped into his home and came to the middle courtyard. His mother, Mrs. Xu, was killing chickens and plucking feathers with Qiu's sister-in-law and mistress in preparation for today's dinner.

Normally Wang Zhaowen would not allow Mrs. Xu to do these servant jobs, and asked her to act like a mistress.But Mrs. Xu can't sit still. It's winter in Beijing, and there's not much work to do in her vegetable garden.Moreover, Wang Zhaowen was on duty in Taicang and would never start work in advance.

Therefore, knowing that Wang Zhaowen would not come back before dark, Xu secretly did the work of others at home.Today, Emperor Jiajing sent six more personal guards to Wang Daoqiu, and the number of royal guards stationed at the gate of the house also increased.When people just arrived, Mrs. Xu decided to kill a few more chickens in the evening to entertain them.So now she is killing chickens and plucking feathers with Qiu Sao and Xiao Sanniang in the courtyard.

As soon as Wang Daoqiu walked into the middle courtyard, the smart little Sanniang was the first to see Wang Daoqiu, so she immediately giggled, opened her arms and rushed over to ask for a "hug".As for Wang Daoqiu, he was injured on his back last night. If he exerts force, the wound will be affected and it will be very painful.

Therefore, he did not dare to hug the mistress and lift her up high, so he faced the begging mistress for a hug.Wang Daoqiu said apologetically: "Sanniang, my uncle is injured today and cannot be hugged..."

"What, Shitou, are you injured? How did you get injured? Is it serious? Let me take a look." As the mistress ran over, Xu said to Wang Daoqiu, who left work so early and didn't come back last night. Shi also ran over, wanting to ask what happened.

But as soon as Mrs. Xu came over, she heard Wang Daoqiu tell her mistress that she was injured, which frightened Mrs. Xu.I couldn't help but interrupt Wang Daoqiu's conversation with his mistress and asked Wang Daoqiu.

Wang Daoqiu knew that paper could not suppress the fire, especially for those powerful people who had flexible information.He even believed that when the powerful people received the news, they would definitely come and visit according to the courtesy.At that time, his family will know that he is injured, so instead of making a big joke when others come to visit and his family does not know that he is injured, it is better to tell him now.

So facing his worried mother, Wang Daoqiu smiled and said, "I had nothing to do last night, so I took my two guards to visit the night market. Unfortunately, I met a dozen yamen officials who wanted to extort money. My son couldn't get angry, so he took two guards and fought with them. During the fight, my son was scratched by their knives. He was treated at the Imperial Hospital last night and didn't come back."

"What, you were injured by a knife? Come in, come in, let mother see."

When she heard that Wang Daoqiu had been cut by a knife, Mrs. Xu turned pale with fright, and hurriedly took Wang Daoqiu's arm and went into the house.At this time, Mrs. Qiu heard that Wang Daoqiu had been chopped off, so she didn't bother to "undress" the chicken, so she quickly picked up Xiao Sanniang and followed Xu.

When they came to the house, Mrs. Xu moved the brazier in, and together with Mrs. Qiu, she helped Wang Daoqiu take off his clothes. When he saw Wang Daoqiu's body, it was wrapped in white cloth and there were red blood stains. At that time, Mrs. Xu suddenly felt distressed and cried loudly, cursing the assailant.

After crying enough, Mrs. Xu asked Mrs. Qiu to call Wang Daoqiu's daughter-in-law, Shen Xiangning.After Shen Xiangning arrived, the five women in the room, Xu, Shen Xiangning, Qiu Sao, Cui'er and Xiao Sanniang, cried loudly to Wang Daoqiu, making Wang Daoqiu dumbfounded. Am I dead? ?
After the women finished crying, they sent Wang Daoqiu back to their house and let Wang Daoqiu recover from his injuries.Mrs. Xu even said angrily that she would kill another chicken to make soup tonight, and she must make up for the blood Wang Daoqiu lost.

While several women in Wang Daoqiu's family were busy busy because Wang Daoqiu was injured, Yan Song, the chief minister of the cabinet, came to the door.

Strictly speaking, Wang Daoqiu's injury had nothing to do with his Yan family. After all, the blind Mao Jianhua was just the younger brother of Yan Shifan's concubine.However, a concubine in a wealthy family in the Ming Dynasty was just a plaything of the master, and was not considered the mistress of the house at all.

As for this concubine's family, whether they are considered relatives in the house depends on whether the master's family will give them face or not.Therefore, as long as Yan Song and Yan Shifan disown them, Mao Jianhua has nothing to do with the Yan family.After all, Mao Jianhua's sister was just Yan Shifan's concubine, not his official wife.

Mao Jianhua was blind to gold and jade, so he treated a dignified first-class cabinet bachelor as a dandy.Yan Song and his son did not know about this at all beforehand. Yan Shifan also went there afterwards to "make a mistake" and got himself into a trap by trying to extort money. Now he is imprisoned in the Mint.

So when it comes to this matter, his Yan family is also a victim.But so what?In order not to have a grudge with Wang Daoqiu, and not to let Wang Daoqiu take revenge on Yan Shifan, didn't he, Old Yan Song, have to come over and say soft words to Wang Daoqiu with a courtesy and a thick skin?
