Rebirth of the famous family

Chapter 389 Punishment (2)
How could Mrs. Liao not know Jinse's temperament? After thinking about it for more than three years, their negligence towards Jinse's siblings caused the two children to suffer a lot in Jiangzhou. If there were no Wanyan Zongze's many times of help , I'm afraid everything is irreparable.If he had insisted on keeping Jinse's siblings by his side at the beginning, Jinse would not have known Yan Zongze completely, let alone develop affection for him.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Liao only felt that she was wrong about what happened today, and she could see her firmness from Jinse's performance. Now she was crying in her arms, saying such words, Mrs. Liao The Taijun felt sad for a while, and said after a while: "Forget it, grandma can't control this matter, I will ask your grandfather to meet the child, it will be up to him whether it succeeds or not."

Jinse raised her head in surprise when she heard the words. It was hard to believe that she passed the level of her grandmother so easily. Seeing that her small face was full of tears, the old lady Liao tried it on her with a veil, and Fang stroked her hair and said, : "Grandmother is always doing it for your own good. If you forcefully stop you and tell you to wash your face with tears every day, isn't it putting the cart before the horse?"

"Grandma's lunch is useless today, and she didn't eat anything tonight. Now that Wei Wei has woken up and talked, grandma should go back to Songhe Yuan for dinner. I will take good care of Wei Wei. .”

At the same time, Liao Shumin's voice sounded, Hai Shi also persuaded Mrs. Liao to leave. Seeing that her grandmother's face was not very good-looking, Jinse felt guilty again. After Hai Shi helped Mrs. Liao go, Liao Shumin talked about it. What happened after Jinse disappeared.

Regardless of family concerns, after Liao Shuyi returned home yesterday, Mrs. Liao did not tell everyone in the Liao family about Jinse and Wanyan Zongze. Only the old lady, Hai Shi and Liao Shuyi knew where Jinse was. clear.And Liao Shumin also felt guilty that Jinse had left the Liao family to help her, so everyone had an accident, so she secretly hid in the old master Liao's study, and only then did she know everything.

Jinse was relieved that everyone in the Liao family knew about this. Liao Shumin had to complain about Jinse, but she also understood Jinse when she thought about Wanyan Zongze's identity.Seeing that Jinse had a smile on his face and a spring in his eyes because he had passed the level of Mrs. Liao, he couldn't help joking with Jinse, and the two of them talked for a while, Liao Shumin just said something, said: " You don't know, but something happened on the night of the Shangyuan Festival. That is, Princess Ruya, who was sent to the Zhuangzi of the Jianghuai Palace in the suburbs of Beijing earlier? The nanny disciplined her, but who knew that she insisted that the nanny was recommended by Yan Jun, and wanted to embarrass her on purpose, so she got into a quarrel because of this, not only did not change her temperament, but also confronted the nunnery from time to time, It was so noisy that she couldn’t come back to Beijing during the New Year’s Eve. On the night of the Lantern Festival, she got into a tantrum again and sneaked out from the farm with a maid to go to the city to see the lanterns. She didn’t think about the lanterns. Well, in the early morning of the second day, he was sent back by Uncle Annan, who was temporarily staying in the King of Wu's courtyard. I heard that the two of them spent the night alone in the courtyard of the King of Wu because they had a drink. The news yesterday Then the word spread in Beijing. At that time, Big Brother hadn’t found you yet. You don’t know how anxious I was when I heard about it, and I was afraid that you would too... Fortunately, good people have good rewards, and now you have finally returned safely... ..."

Jinse was stunned when she heard this, and felt that there was something wrong with it. No matter how mischievous Princess Rouya was, she didn't have the reason to bring a maid back to Beijing to join in the fun at night. On Wu Wang's Zhuangzi, Princess Rou Ya and An Nanbo's son happened to have feuds with him, and Wu Wang belonged to Wanyan Zongze.

Thinking about it this way, Jinse shook her head and smiled. Although Princess Rouya is arrogant, she is not an idiot. This matter can be done without cooperation from inside and outside. It seems that Wanyan Zongze has probably hooked up with Yan Jun.If not, why did Miss Bai happen just a few days ago, and now Princess Rouya has happened.

Obviously, it's not just Wanyan Zongze who is avenging her, but also Yan Jun who is paying back to Princess Jianghuai.Yan Jun is also a capable and sensible person. With him around, Liao Shumin will not suffer from marrying. Thinking of Jinse like this, she felt relieved, and took Liao Shumin's hand and said, "Second sister, I really envy you, you will soon be a bride and marry your sweetheart."

Liao Shumin didn't know why Jinse said this, but her face turned red because of her words, and thinking about the scene of visiting the Lantern Market with Yan Jun on the Lantern Festival the day before yesterday was even more frustrating, so she stared at Jinse and said : "Wei Wei said that as if he hated marrying. Is that King Wuying really that good?"

The benevolent sees the benevolent and the wise sees the wisdom, but life is her own, as long as she thinks all the tastes are worth it, when thinking of that person, there is only affection in her heart, so in her eyes, he is the best.

Jinse pursed her lips and smiled, but did not answer. Liao Shumin saw that she had only mentioned Wanyan Zongze, and Jinse's face seemed to be softened and charming as if she had been illuminated by a soft light once. He thought about that day in Liuyuan In the middle, Jinse was clearly helping Wanyan Zongze everywhere, she didn't understand anything, she just held Jinse's hand tightly, and said: "Weiwei, no matter what his identity is, just because he gave his life to save you this time , I recognized him as my brother-in-law."

Half a month later, in Old Master Liao's study room, Ying Qi helped Wanyan Zongze to sit down and then bowed out. Liao Zhengqi sat behind the big book case and stared sharply at Wanyan Zongze. He had a respectful expression since he entered the room. , the attitude is humble, but there is no trace of remorse, and the eyes are clear and upright, and there is no dodge from his gaze, and then the complexion is slightly pale, without turning around, straight to the point, and said in a deep voice: "My girl from the Liao family is not Will be a concubine!"

Wanyan Zongze heard the words and said loudly, "I am happy with Wei Wei, how can I let her be inferior to others? You are too worried, if you can always betroth Wei Wei to me, I can make an oath now, and I will get this in this life." A good wife is enough, we must cherish her for the rest of my life.”

Liao Zhengqi sneered, and said: "Any oath is false, will Wei Wei be betrothed to you? Although young men and women in Beiyan can develop their romance freely, but the marriage still needs to be approved by the family, and the three matches and six rituals are performed, right? King Wuying This is asking me how to betroth my granddaughter to you?! May I ask where your parents are, who is the matchmaker you hired, and where is the letter of engagement?"

Liao Zhengqi pressed the question, but Wanyan Zongze didn't panic, he suddenly changed the subject, and said: "You are the Minister of the Household Department of Dajin, in charge of the land of Dajin, the people, the administration of money and valleys, and the difference between tribute and taxes. Dajin San Years ago, at the beginning of Emperor Xiao Ming's ascension to the throne, Dajin had a population of 3000 million and 400 million mu of fertile land. The household department could collect 700 million taels of silver in real tax a year. Last year, the population of Dajin has dropped sharply to 700 million, and the fertile land has decreased by two-tenths in just two years. The household tax revenue is only 320 million taels, but it has doubled compared to three years ago This year, the Ministry of Households recorded a new record, and the population has decreased again, to only 500 million, and the fertile land has decreased by ten to twenty-three compared with the previous year. The cost of the new budget has already reached 300 million taels of silver. Millions of people have disappeared, why? Is it only caused by natural disasters? Why is the fertile land constantly decreasing? , taking advantage of the fire to rob, filling private pockets, and constantly robbing and annexing land. The people who suffered natural disasters, the country was unable to accommodate and appease them, but all the fertile land that should have been distributed to the refugees was all owned by the powerful. How could the people not A sharp drop? The population is getting smaller and smaller, and the barren land is getting more and more. Officials are corrupt, so how can taxes not be reduced year after year? And the cost has doubled, not because of anything else, but because of bandits and bandits. One year has passed, and the amount of silver allocated by the Ministry of Households to the Ministry of War for suppressing bandits and rebellion is 1000 million taels more this year than it was three years ago. The treasury has already been empty. I am afraid that even thousands of taels of silver have to be considered every day. Last year, you wrote a letter asking Emperor Xiao of the Ming Dynasty to reduce the salaries of hundreds of officials and give great rewards to meritorious persons, which attracted almost all civil and military officials to impeach. , the Ministry of Industry, and the Ministry of Rites just open their mouths to ask for money from you year after year. It is not good to suppress bandits. Pushing yourself, juniors dare to ask, how long do you think such a big brocade can last? Or, how many years do you think you can last if you tear down the east wall to make up the west wall like this? In the past few days, the three rivers and rivers in the Nanling area have been shaken, and the household department has been caught off guard. Up to now, there has been no relief money. In the past few days, there have been more and more refugees near the capital. , do you really think that nursery rhyme is nonsense?"
