Chapter 93: Fight for power
This matter was a sure thing. They even arranged for someone to take the lead in mortgaging the land deed. Who knew that someone would come out and make trouble. The other party was still a child.
Not only Wu Shancai was annoyed, but those squires looked at Mu Yangling as if they were killing his father and enemy.
Isn't ?? cutting off a person's fortune the same as killing his father?
This time the Hu people attacked the city by accident, but they wanted to buy more field slaves, but it was a long-term plan, but farmers regard the fields as eyeballs, unless there is a big change in the family, or no one will sell it for no reason land?
In the past, they could forcefully buy or borrow at high interest rates, but since Qi Xiuyuan was guarding Xingzhou, they had to be careful in their actions.
It was said that military attachés were not allowed to interfere in local government affairs, but his father was the imperial censor, and it was his duty to impeach officials, and they really did not dare to offend him too much.
As for the local squires, although they looked down on Qi Xiuyuan, they had soldiers in their hands, and they could still tell who was stronger and who was weaker.
It was easy to have a chance to plan these scumbags in a fair and honest way, and asked a child to mix it up, so they couldn't help but hate her.
Mu Yangling ignored their gazes and returned to the General's Mansion with Mu Shi.
"You can offend both Wu Shancai and the squires of Xingzhou Mansion." Fan Zijin's playful voice came from behind.
Mu Yangling turned around and saw Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin looking at her with a smile.
Mu Shi hurriedly bowed his hands in salute, "I have seen two young masters, and the little girl has no status, which made them laugh. I am afraid that this matter will affect the house, and we will move out when we come back."
"Am I still afraid that they won't succeed?" Qi Haoran waved his hand and said, "Uncle Mu just stay here for as long as you want."
then looked at Mu Yangling with admiration, "You're right, Zijin also said that they had colluded before, but it's a pity that my eldest brother can't meddle in local government affairs, otherwise I have to join them."
Emperor Sejong legislated more restrictions on officials' behavior, advocated the rule of law, and was more tolerant of the people, but Emperor Gaozong thought that the country's breaking up was mostly caused by the treachery and military generals, so he imposed more restrictions on the military attachés, and even transferred all the troops stationed at the border. prevent civil upheaval.
If Emperor Sejong hadn't left a decree that the constitution should not be easily changed before his death, Emperor Gojong would have re-enacted the law.
Therefore, Dazhou's current national conditions are very strange.
In the north, there are big golden tigers, and in the west, there are Xixia and Tubo, and in the south there is Dali. Don't offend your neighbors too much, and on the other hand, you must guard against the generals who lead the troops.
For the common people, the Great Zhou Emperor was able to scrape a little more, and all kinds of strange taxes appeared.
The strangest thing is that Da Zhou's freedom of speech was so great that Mu Yangling was speechless. The people scolded corrupt officials and the king was faint, while taking out money to pay taxes.
The emperor was scolded by the people to the gate of the palace, but he didn't even put a fart, and he turned around and committed himself.
The confrontation between the civil servants and the military attachés has reached an unprecedented height. It has become a common practice for the emperor not to allow military attachés to interfere in local affairs.
"But Mingshui County fell because the magistrate led people to escape, so let him go?" If Qian Shu hadn't taken away most of the yamen, Mingshui County would not have been breached so quickly.
Qi Haoran snorted coldly, "Of course it can't be done like this. My eldest brother has already written a document to impeach him. When will the idiot hide?" Seeing that the streets were full of victims, Qi Haoran protected them to the General's Mansion. , said: "But you have enough food for disaster relief. My eldest brother said that these squires and Wu Shancai have already agreed. It is difficult for you to get food from Wu Shancai."
Qi Haoran looked left and right, then lowered his voice and said, "Our West Camp is stationed in Fucheng, and it is impossible for you to riot and force him to submit."
Mu Yangling's face was full of surprise, "Who said we were going to riot?" Mu Yangling was very happy to move her lips, but if she moved her hands, she would rebel, and she was not tired of living.
Qi Haoran had a "don't lie to me" expression on his face, and said, "You guys almost broke your fists just now, aren't you going to riot?"
Mu Yangling hummed and said: "I don't do it, and I'm not a fool to do it with an official."
The Mu family has no land, and it is even more impossible for them to sell themselves as slaves. Two days ago, Shu Wanniang proposed to go south, and Mu Shi agreed. Now they will just wait for the people of Linshan Village to settle down.
Xingzhou Prefecture is now a border gate, and there will definitely be more and more Hu people going south to fight grassy valleys. In the past, only Shu Wanniang and Xiao Bowen, Mu Shi and Mu Yangling were able to protect them, but now that they have a dragon and a phoenix, they have no three heads and six arms. How can you protect so many people?
The best way is to stay away from here, go south, and find a place with beautiful scenery and hunting to resettle again.
Shu Wanniang has nothing to do here, Mu Shi is more of a responsibility to Linshan Village, but his feelings are indifferent. Now he is just waiting for the Linshan villagers to settle down. He can be regarded as an explanation to his parents.
Although Mu Yangling was reluctant to give up, he understood his parents' decision. Since he would never live in Xingzhou Mansion in the future, why should he be afraid of offending the squires here?
They are only within one county in this state, so don't worry about it now, they live in Qi Mansion, and the military and civil officials are not in harmony.
Thinking of this, Mu Yanglingte looked at Qi Haoran sincerely and said, "Thank you."
Qi Haoran was confused, "Thank me for what?"
"Thank you for letting me borrow your power," Mu Yangling said with a smile: "If I hadn't lived in the Qi Mansion, I wouldn't dare to blame the prefect of Wu and those squires."
Qi Haoran was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted, and then he waved his hand: "What's the matter? You just control the situation and see who dares to bully you."
Fan Zijin could not wait to step on him. As soon as these big words came out, what would Mu Yangling do if he really used his power to bully others?
Mu Yangling laughed and said equally boldly: "Don't worry, I will definitely not be polite."
Qi Haoran saw that she was in good spirits, and his heart moved, he pulled her over to avoid Mu Shi and asked in a low voice, "Are you injured now?"
"It's almost there, what's wrong?"
His hands were itchy, Qi Haoran glanced at Mu Shi secretly, and lowered his voice, "Let's go to the school grounds to discuss."
Qi Haoran has long wanted to discuss with Mu Yangling, but he has not been able to find a chance. This time he is living in his house, but he is injured. He has been waiting for this opportunity.
Mu Yangling also wanted to see ancient Kung Fu, which is a legendary thing. He also glanced at his father and nodded slightly when he saw that he and Fan Zijin were looking at the things on the booth.
Mu Shi took the splash drum from Fan Zijin's hand with embarrassment on his face, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Fan, we already have two children, so there's no need for so many."
Fan Zijin smiled lightly and said, "Children, prepare a few more, and the rest can be used when they have younger siblings."
Mu Shi had no choice but to accept it when he heard it, while Fan Zijin looked sideways at the two, and seeing that they had made a deal, he would no longer help them attract Mu Shi's attention.
Mu Yangling changed into light clothes and ran to the school grounds when he went back. Qi Haoran was already waiting there, and even Fan Zijin changed into a martial arts uniform and stood there.
Seeing Mu Yangling coming, Qi Haoran showed a big smile, bright as the sun in the sky, almost blinding Mu Yangling's eyes.
