Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 15 Reaction of the Parties

Xue Pan is usually the most playful, and he has stepped on all the wonderful places in the south of the Yangtze River.

He had heard that the capital city was the most prosperous place in the world, and he had long wanted to take a tour and see the scenery of Shang Kingdom.

At this time, when he heard that his mother was going to take his younger sister to the capital, he himself wanted to follow.

"no!"

Unexpectedly, Mother Xue frowned and refused.

"You killed a person yesterday, and you need to personally go to this matter!"

Xue Pan was stunned for a moment, his face full of doubts.

"Have I ever killed someone?"

"You! Oh!"

Mother Xue looked at her useless son, first sighed, and then told the news she had received.

"Isn't it because you competed with the Feng family yesterday to buy a maidservant? The little girl's father was injured by your servant and died within an hour. There are witnesses all over the street. You can't deny it even if you want to."

"I……"

Xue Pan subconsciously felt wronged, and then said angrily:

"That old man is a kidnapper! I'm too lazy to argue with him, but he's planning on me, and he deserves to be killed!"

Turning his head away angrily as he spoke, he let out another foul breath after a while.

"Wow~!"

Seeing that no one ignored him, Xue Pan started playing tricks again.

"I don't care, I'm going. If I want to come to Jinling Mansion, I won't be arrested because of a kidnapper."

He hugged Mother Xue's arm, and said: "I think it's not a big deal to ask someone to give me more money."

Seeing that Xue's mother was still silent, he simply resorted to his trump card.

"Mom~! Since my father left, all the businesses in the provinces have been gradually consumed, and there are a few businesses that are the most eye-catching. I just need to go and see for myself."

Every time something didn't go his way, Xue Pan would move his father out to save the situation.

Now there are more excuses for business, and I feel more comfortable.

"So, I really have to go to Duzhong this time!"

"First, I will send Baochai to be selected. Second, I will send my mother to visit relatives. Third, I will go to the Ministry to settle the old accounts and then calculate the new ones."

Mother Xue gave him an angry look.

She knew that her son was playful, but after thinking about it, she couldn't bear to part with him.

Immediately, he nodded in agreement.

Xue Pan was very excited, and immediately started to prepare for the trip to the capital.

Baochai had no expression on her face, and when she happened to return to her room, she sighed softly.

Xue's mother wrote two letters, telling her brother Wang Ziteng and sister Jia Wangshi respectively about the news that the three of them were going to Beijing.

I even talked about the past few days, hoping they can help make up their minds.

…………

When Mu Kun learned that Liu Zhao had returned and wiped out the Japanese pirates, he was a little dubious.

However, he went to the city gate immediately.

People inspected the head of the Japanese pirates, and after getting the exact information, they immediately went to the Ministry of War to ask for orders to open the city gate.

Liu Zhao was brought back to the camp by him.

"You mean, your thousand elites were defeated by Japanese pirates in one encounter, and they were powerless to fight back."

"And the [-] Zhuang Ding of Fengjiazhuang not only wiped out the Japanese pirates, but also remained unscathed?"

Even though Mu Kun already knew the general situation.

But after listening to Liu Zhao's detailed report, I still couldn't believe it.

Mu Kun also knows that the world has been peaceful for a long time, and the military equipment in the south of the Yangtze River has long been relaxed.

But the Beijing camp is still a regular army, let alone Liu Zhao's elite!
How could he be inferior to Zhuang Ding?
This gap made him a little unacceptable for a while.

Seeing Mu Kun's expression suddenly lost, Liu Zhao thought it was because he had lost his troops.

He hastily pleaded guilty:
"My lord, it's because I didn't do my job well that I let you down."

Mu Kun came back to his senses, and waved his hands tiredly.

"Liangming, don't think about it, it's good if you can come back! You just need to rest in peace and recuperate, and I will take care of the rest."

"Ashamed subordinate!"

Liu Zhao was really ashamed, but also very disappointed.

Mu Kun only said to solve it, but didn't say to repay the credit.

What needs to be resolved?It was nothing more than his loss of soldiers and generals.

But how many officers and soldiers have been defeated by the Japanese pirates for several months?

No matter how you punish him, it will not be his turn!
Liu Zhao understood what he should do.

"My lord, I don't know what to do with a truckload of seized items. They have already been sent to your lord's house."

"Huh? I see."

Mu Kun immediately cheered up when he heard the words, pondered for a while, and said again:

"Anyway, you saved the face of the Nanjing Jingying this time. Although it was the righteous people who helped you, it was you who commanded it properly. I will definitely ask for credit for you."

"Ashamed subordinate!"

Liu Zhao bowed his head again.

He knew that the matter had been settled, but he just wanted to ask someone to carry him out.

But Mu Kun asked again in a low voice: "Is this the only car that the Japanese pirates have robbed for several months?"

The commander's greed made Liu Zhao somewhat disdainful.

He can become Mu Kun's confidant because he is not so greedy.

Of the five thousand households in Nanjing Jingying, only Liu Zhao's troops were barely fully equipped.

And you can practice three or five times in a month.

Thanks to his support on the surface, Mu Kun's face is not so ugly.

Of course, it is also because of this that Mu Kun gets the least benefit from him on weekdays.
It's a matter of mutual benefit.

Although disdainful, Liu Zhao will not show it.

Hearing the words, he replied: "If you want the Japanese pirates to flee everywhere, you have to prepare some food and grass, and you can't carry too many things. This car should be full of essence."

This is what Feng Yibo told him.

In fact, Liu Zhao didn't believe it either, but he wouldn't say much about it either.

After all, what he wants is credit.

In order to make his credit more stable, Feng Yibo was able to share a load of goods, Liu Zhao was already extremely grateful.

Unfortunately, he didn't quite believe it, how could Mu Kun believe it?

"Oh."

Mu Kun's noncommittal made Liu Zhao secretly sigh.

He knew that if he didn't say anything at this time, Mu Kun would definitely trouble Feng Yibo.

As long as the interests are sufficient, he can unite with other yamen.

At that time, it is not impossible to confiscate the house for any crime.

Don't think they can't deal with Japanese pirates, they are very good at such things.

"Actually, there is another car, which was transported to Li's residence by Feng Yuan."

Liu Zhao's words caused a brief silence in the camp.

After a long while, Mu Kun sighed: "What a pity! He is also very filial."

…………

At this time, in the Li Mansion, PY transactions are also going on.

The way of possible transactions is different from the direct here.

However, the shock caused by the extermination of the Japanese pirates by Zhuang Ding of the Feng Mansion was the same.

As Li Shouzhong, he had naturally heard about this gang of Japanese pirates.

He robbed the south of the Yangtze River for several months and defeated an unknown number of officers and soldiers stationed there.

Even the elite of the Beijing camp fled back yesterday.

Such ferocious Japanese pirates were wiped out by Feng Yibo and Zhuang Ding.

How can you not shock him?
"The Japanese pirates just fought a battle, and the disciple just picked up a mistake."

Hearing what Feng Yibo said, Li Shouzhong reluctantly accepted.

Seeing that his expression was relaxed, Feng Yibo no longer hid it, and said directly:

"This time, I troubled my teacher to run for me. I am really afraid that I will be swallowed up by others."

"how do I say this?"

Li Shouzhong didn't understand what he meant.

You Xie Yuan today, but you still want this military exploits, can you transfer to a military officer?

He felt that as a teacher, he had the responsibility to make corrections.

"Yibo, you are now a mansion Jieyuan, in the spring, as long as you perform normally, you will be a Jinshi."

Li Shouzhong didn't want Feng Yuan to make a mistake, so what he said was sincere.

"The imperial examination is the foundation of your life, don't put the cart before the horse!"
