Chapter 494 Revenge Never Overnight
The old Liu family has developed over a hundred years. There are not only thousands of direct and collateral lineage clans, but also hundreds of families, large and small.
As for those who came to the palace to attend the royal family banquet today, in addition to the old saint's nephews and grandchildren, there were twelve relatives in the fifth server. They were basically the first batch of Liu family members to participate in the enfeoffment overseas.
This group of people originally wanted to let the people from Prince Yingchuan's palace come forward to make trouble, but they stood behind to see if they could get some benefits from the emperor.
But as Daiyu stood up and started to argue, she suddenly realized that something was not right about this matter...
"Your Majesty, this case must not be repeated! We agreed at the beginning that we would pay for it ourselves and hire people from the Ministry of Industry to build warships, and we would also spend money to hire people from the Ministry of War to train sailors... If we don't say anything else, let's just talk about us. The Prince of Jiaodong spent three million taels of silver to sell all the land saved by his ancestors...Uncle Prince Yingchuan wanted to save so much money in just one sentence, why? This is unfair!"
Are you kidding me? We are all descendants of the old Liu family. Why can you get a good fiefdom with just a word and you don't want to spend money?
Hey, are you still staring at me?
What are you looking at? Is there anything wrong with what I said?
It's true that you, Liu Zhi, have a higher seniority, but I, Liu Zili, are both county princes and nobles, so who is afraid of whom?
This kind of thing simply cannot withstand provocation... There is no such thing as provocation.
Daiyu just felt that the old man was too greedy and wanted to teach him a lesson for the emperor, but without even using 30% of his strength, the people in the Yingchuan Palace were silenced.
The fighting ability is not as good as those cats at home, so boring!
Seeing that the clan members in the palace were almost unanimously siding with the emperor, Daiyu bowed to everyone in the Yingchuan Palace who had been glaring at her resentfully, sat back after completing the etiquette, and continued to enjoy the delicious food in the palace.
Seeing that all the clan members were targeting the Yingchuan Prince's Mansion, the emperor nodded happily towards Daiyu, and then glanced at the Yingchuan Prince's Prince Liu Mang who was still glaring at Daiyu fiercely.
He snorted coldly and said to Liu Zhi: "Is this what the tutors in Prince Yingchuan's palace are like? Wen An is my daughter, and her education has been praised by all the civil and military officials in the dynasty. Why did she come to your house just because she said a few fair words? Are you going to be hated by Uncle Wang’s son and grandson?”
"That's right! Brother Wang has never been in the market. People all over the capital, who mentions Princess Wen'an without giving a thumbs up and praises her, just because the people in Brother Wang's family are special and cannot take advantage of her, they immediately show their teeth and claws, and even want to help other people's Jia family, Lessons from the Lin family..."
There are many strange things in Lao Liu's family, but there are even more smart people.
This girl from the Lin family is not only favored by the palace, but also backed by the Lin and Jia families. Her father is the God of Wealth in Daxia, and her fiancé Jia Cong still controls the two most important departments of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War.
They were crazy enough to stand with the people from the Yingchuan Palace to offend the Lin family girl.
Praise, you must praise it hard!
It doesn't matter even if Liu Zhi is severely offended. A casual favor with Lin Ruhai and Jia Cong will be enough to make it much easier for their family to go to sea.
Haha~
This old clan member of the Liu family, whom Daiyu didn't know at all, was interesting. Suddenly the conversation changed and he winked at her, and said sarcastically towards Liu Zhi: "For the sake of everyone being brothers, I would like to remind Brother Wang. , it’s best to go back to Yingchuan as soon as possible, that bastard Jia Enhou doesn’t care how old you are or how high your title is, if he starts ruthlessly, no one can stop him.”
Many people in the palace shuddered with these words. These people were all people who had been beaten by Master Pardon.
Although Liu Zhi had also heard of Jia Enhou's nickname, he relied on his high rank to show his seniority and wanted to maintain his majesty.
I saw him shaking his beard: "Does he still dare to hit me? I'm just..."
"Brother Wang, there is no need to explain. I know, I know, you just want to teach your niece a lesson for him... Hey, Lin Yatou is the fiancée of Jia Enhou's precious son. This old boy has been beaten for his sake. How many princes and princes have demolished the mansions of princes and princes. I think Brother Yingchuan has been very skilled in martial arts since he was a child, so he can withstand the punch of the heir taught by Jia Daishan..."
Ding~
At this time, Liu Zhi's children and grandchildren all shrank back and did not dare to stare at Daiyu anymore.
Even Liu Zhi wanted to retreat, but he still wanted to say a few harsh words, but his sleeve was pulled by his eldest son.
"Father, what he said is true. That bastard Jia She even beat up the Emperor's own son. He even demolished Prince Zhongxin's palace. At that time, Liu Wei was extremely favored... The Emperor only punished him once. Years of salary!"
This sentence was like a heavy hammer that destroyed Liu Zhi's last persistence.
He felt that the old and young in Huangji Hall were all staring at him mockingly. He gritted his teeth and cupped his hands towards the emperor: "Your Majesty, I am not feeling well today. I will leave for now. I will come back to see the saint and Your Majesty another day."
puff~
I don't know who laughed first in the hall, and then many people laughed too.
Even the emperor felt happy, and tried his best to maintain his majesty, waving his hands and saying: "Uncle Wang will go on his own. After the father returns to the capital, I will ask people to invite Uncle Wang to the palace, and we will discuss the enfeoffment matter. Oh, by the way, Uncle Wang had better go out of the capital and hide for a while, Jia Enhou... I can't control him."
The previous words were normal, but the last sentence really made the people of Yingchuan Palace angry, ashamed and afraid.
They could no longer stay in the palace, so they bowed casually to the emperor and then left.
Hahahaha...
All the people from Yingchuan Prince's Mansion left, and the atmosphere in the palace became relaxed as everyone laughed.
In fact, the emperor does not object to enfeoffing the old Liu family to good places, but you cannot be greedy, let alone take the initiative to ask for things that the emperor has not planned to give you.
For example, the Prince of Yingchuan asked the emperor to send his family to the Japanese country at first, and later tried to seize the Jia family's fiefdom in Australia.
That Australia is a kingdom fief that the Jia family is planning to join forces with the Lin family to build for Yuanchun's son, the emperor's youngest son.
Liu Zhi is so stupid that he even wants to take away other people's wealth from the emperor!
"Wen An, I still haven't thanked you, my uncle, King Yue..."
Daiyu stood up and bowed down to the old clan member who had just ridiculed Liu Zhi: "I would like to thank my uncle, King of Yue. If my uncle hadn't spoken out just now, I would have been hated by others."
King Liu Xi of Yue, the only surviving member of the old Liu family, was of the Shui generation. He was not very old, but his seniority was really high.
He is about the same age as Master Sheda. His grandfather and Grandfather Taizu are brothers. They conquered Fuzhou, Fujian, and were named Yue.
This time I came to Beijing for the purpose of going to sea in March.
He gave Daiyu a hand, and after Daiyu got up, he smiled and said: "This king is speaking out for justice, you girl is the one... If you hadn't revealed Liu Zhi's rogue purpose, our old Liu family's face would have been ruined. I’ve been completely disgraced by this man.”
"The shame is secondary. If we really agree to his words, the enfeoffment policy decided earlier will become a piece of paper. Wouldn't our efforts over the past few years be in vain?"
Wu Wang Liu Chen suddenly said: "Your Majesty, Uncle Yue Wang, all elder brothers of the clan. We have signed a contract with the imperial court for this policy of enfeoffing overseas countries. Which family has not spent millions of gold and silver? The Prince of Yingchuan just said this lightly. If His Majesty changes the national policy, then who will dare to believe in the government's major policies in the future?"
Reputation is something that, once lost, is hard to build again!
The enfeoffment matter is related to the future of each family, and no one dares to be careless.
When Liu Chen said this, cold sweat broke out on almost everyone's backs.
The reason is very simple. Today, the Jia family's fiefdom can be taken away and given to the Yingchuan Palace. Tomorrow, the emperor's own son will take his fiefdom from whichever family he likes, and he can take it away with just one sentence.
"Don't worry, Brother Wu. It is a national policy, and it has been decided by the imperial meeting. The imperial edict is clearly issued to the world. How can I change it overnight?"
The emperor's words did not appease the anxious hearts of the people in the middle hall. In fact, in the past dynasties, the rule of man was greater than the rule of law, and it was not uncommon for orders to be changed overnight.
At this time, Daiyu tilted her head and suddenly said: "Why not write the policy of enfeoffing overseas into the "Daxia Code"..."
... The imperial guards in front of the palace gate were helpless. After Yongfeng Hou left and returned, he and the loyal king Liu Ke set up a stall selling barbecue in front of the Daxia gate.
Every noble family member who came to the palace to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor or the queen mother would be stopped by a big cat, who "forced" them to buy a few skewers of barbecued meat from a stall.
A small skewer of meat costs ten taels of silver, and even corrupt officials are not so ruthless in scraping the land.
Originally, Jia Cong planned to go home after playing in the market, but he did not expect to hear from Lao Shisan about the glorious deeds of Lin Daodong and Fengxue Emperor Ji Palace.
Although the emperor was here, Jia Cong knew that Sister Lin would not be wronged.
However, as Sister Lin's man and a member of Prince Yingchuan's palace, he must teach her a lesson.
"Master Thirteen, is your news reliable? Why hasn't Liu Zhi and the others come out after so long?"
Liu Ke made skewers with one hand and grilled them with the other. He was so skillful that he didn't look like a royal prince.
He glanced at Jia Cong, who stretched his neck to look into the palace, and said disdainfully: "Why are you so anxious? I have at least thirty or forty spies in Longshou Palace... You don't want to think about it, every time my father wants to beat me , I can accurately run and hide outside the city, what do I rely on?"
Come on, you are awesome! This is indeed something you, the Thirteenth, can do!
Sure enough, it didn't take long for people to send messages one after another.
"Thirteenth Master, Marquis, and Princess Wen'an were speechless when they refuted the remarks of the Yingchuan Prince's family. Prince Yingchuan also threatened His Highness the Princess, saying... that he wanted to teach the Princess for the Jia and Lin families. rule……"
Ha~ What a loud tone!
The cold light in Jia Cong's eyes flashed away, and then his face was filled with ridicule.
I only heard the chamberlain report again: "Your Highness the Princess is not afraid. The King of Jiaodong, the King of Yue and others spoke out in defense, and scared off everyone in the Yingchuan Palace with the reputation of your father, Lord Rongguo."
"At this time, Prince Yingchuan and his children and grandchildren came from Cining Palace to pay homage to the Queen Mother, and were heading to Daxia Gate. Superintendent Xia sent the young man over to inform the Marquis. The Emperor said, don't cause trouble, just teach him a lesson. good."
Tsk~
The emperor protects the calf, it is simply the same line as the Supreme Emperor and the old man, which is amazing.
"I understand, thank you so much, little father-in-law..."
Jia Cong had already seen a group of figures in python robes from the doorway. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, pushed the grilled meat skewers into the hands of the waiter, and said with a smile: "This meat tastes very good, little father-in-law. Let’s go aside for a while, and maybe I’ll ask my father-in-law to help me give a few replies to His Majesty later.”
Lao Shisan also saw the group of people walking out of the doorway. He slammed the ungrilled meat skewers in his hands on the shelf and whispered: "Come in directly?"
Jia Cong quickly grabbed Liu Ke, who was already rolling up his sleeves: "No, it's not appropriate for you, Thirteenth Master, to take action. After all, he is your clan chief... Let's look at mine..."
Before Jia Cong could step forward, Big Cat had already rushed forward skillfully.
Liu Zhi felt that he had been wronged in Huangji Palace, and originally thought that he could go to Cining Palace to seek comfort. Unexpectedly, Empress Dowager Cao did not see him at all, and even ordered someone to pass on a message: "You are my great-uncle." Isn’t it embarrassing for an elder to lead a group of children and grandchildren to bully a weak woman and come to complain before she can win the argument?”
Liu Zhi, who was full of anger, had just walked out of the Daxia Gate. Before he could adapt to the sunshine outside the door, he suddenly felt that he seemed to be stared at by a ferocious beast...
"Father...Father...Father..."
"Father, what kind of father? You can't even speak?"
"Father, tiger..."
Bang!
The big cat was already an adult and strong tiger. It knocked Liu Mang away with one head and then stood up and put its big paw on Liu Zhi's shoulder.
Who could have imagined that in a capital city with a population of one million, the emperor would be staring at a tiger at close range under his nose.
Liu Zhi could feel the hot breath of the tiger's breath on his face, and his body went limp and he collapsed on the ground.
roar~
wow~
None of the children and grandchildren behind Liu Zhi could still stand, they all collapsed on the ground. Not to mention saving others, their own legs and feet were no longer in control.
It wasn't until Liu Zhi saw the small gold medal on the big cat's neck that he remembered the mighty general raised by the Supreme Emperor...
"General, I am one of my own people. This king is one of my own people~"
roar~
I don’t understand this, Xiaomiao said, no matter who it is, they have to spend money to buy barbecue!
The big cat roared again, biting Liu Zhi's python robe with his teeth, trying to drag him to the stall to get money to buy barbecue.
Jia Cong ignored the interaction between humans and cats in front of the palace gate, and sneered as he kept brushing hot pepper, pepper, and chili pepper on the meat skewers...
"Your Majesty, the general is soliciting customers..."
The helpless captain guarding the gate once again acted as an interpreter, pulling the big cat away, helping Liu Zhi stand up and explaining in a low voice.
Soon, Liu Zhi figured out why the tiger raised by the Supreme Emperor suddenly appeared at the palace gate...
"It's ridiculous. If I don't buy it today, I'm just like an idiot..."
roar~
snort!
"Jia's son, how much do these meat skewers cost?"
"Ten taels, no credit!"
Jia Cong handed the meaty-looking skewers to Liu Zhi and grinned: "General Huwei likes my barbecue the most, and he also likes to share delicious food with others. Your Majesty must do it in front of General Huwei." Eat it, otherwise, he will be angry and the consequences will be serious!"
After hearing this, Liu Zhi did not doubt that he was there. The meat skewers smelled really good. He had not eaten anything in Huangji Hall before and was already hungry.
He nuzzled towards his eldest son, whose clothes were stained with dust, and said, "Give me money. Is the Yingchuan Palace short of this little money? I never give credit!"
Liu Mang took out ten taels of banknotes from his wallet and threw it at Jia Cong's feet with a disdainful sneer.
But Jia Cong picked it up without any care, blew the dust on it, and shook it: "Who said it was ten taels of silver? I said it was ten taels of gold!"
