Chapter 342 I heard that an important minister is recuperating in the Lin family
The Princess Xunyang gave the guards to Su Jinxin. For Su Jinxin, it was like picking up for free. He didn't have to pay every month's monthly money, but he could also ensure loyalty to his master. Such a good guard would be where to find such a good guard? Besides, on the way to Chuzhou, they could take a guard from the royal palace to show off everywhere. Not only was he powerful, but he could also protect her and Fan Fan's safety. Although the guards of the Su family also brought four or five, they were not as good as the guards carefully trained by the Xunyang Palace. They fought against ten or even dozens of them. Moreover, this guard named Lou Tian looked more straightforward and loyal, and should be reliable.
"If you refuse again if you give up your foster mother with such kindness, wouldn't it hurt your foster mother?" Miss Su Er was so mean and did not forget to praise the Princess Xunyang. "Preferred Mother, you are really worthy of being the dignified Princess Xunyang. As soon as you meet, you gave your daughter a guard."
"You girl is cursing your adoptive mother for being stingy. Don't worry, I will not treat you badly after becoming my adopted daughter." Xunyang said with a smile, "I have no daughter under my knees. It is also a blessing for me to recognize you as my daughter today, but you have already been engaged, otherwise I will definitely do it and choose a good son-in-law for you personally, let alone those nobles from Jiangnan, even princes and nobles far away in the capital. I will also invite you to ensure that it will be more glorious than the cousin of your grandfather's family."
The lady of the Lin family selected her husband, which alarmed the entire Jiangnan. The Xunyang Princess didn't care much, but now Su Jinxin became her adopted daughter, and the Lin family was Su Jinxin's grandfather's family. Therefore, the Xunyang Princess felt that her adopted daughter was compared by the lady of the Lin family. She couldn't hold on, so she slapped the table and said, "Jinxin, you are the daughter of this princess, how can you get married casually? This way, when this princess returns to the royal palace in Jiangzhou, let the prince prepare a book to the Yun family, and ask their Yun family to ask for a marriage and give a betrothal gift."
She asked for a kiss and gave another betrothal gift. Why did her adopted mother think about it? Su Jinxin held her forehead with a headache.
"The princess is not, you can't do it. Mr. Yun is no better than others. What if he annoys Mr. Yun?" Qiaolan was so scared that she hurriedly stopped him. He was a banished immortal, but not an ordinary young man from a noble family. How could he let others tease him like this?
"What are you afraid of? I have this princess to support your lady behind your back. No matter how powerful the Yun family is in Jiangnan, it is just a family. Can it be compared with this princess Xunyang's palace?" Xunyang said indifferently.
"You don't know anything about Princess. The Yun family has already given us seventy-two betrothal gifts to our second lady. If you give it again, it will be more than the rule." Qiaolan explained timidly.
Seventy-two carry the betrothal gift. When the princess Xunyang heard it, she was shocked. Indeed, if she gave it to her, it would be the same as the royal family. She looked at Cao Huiqin and thought to herself, what did the Yun family want to do? She dared to blatantly violate the laws of the court and give the Su family a betrothal gift in the specifications of a prince and a wife. Are you not afraid that the court will know how to blame it?
"This kid has put his heart into it." The one who can give out the seventy-two betrothal gifts, thinks that the third son of Yun really wants to marry Jinxin, Princess Xunyang couldn't help but praise him.
Su Jinxin looked outside the window frame and the sky was getting darker, and she said, "Jinxin, let the servant arrange a residence for your adopted mother. You can rest as soon as possible."
"Grandmother, Qi'er wants to sleep with you." After Su Jinxin said this, Qi'er hurriedly rushed forward and rushed into the arms of Princess Xunyang, and said coquettishly.
Fan Yichu was in front of the Xunyang Princess. As soon as Qier came over, he was squeezed outside by Qier again.
He didn't ask her to provoke her, why did this stubborn little princess always go against him? Fan Yichu frowned in confusion. He originally wanted to tease Qi'er, but later he was afraid of causing trouble for Su Jinxin, so he gave up.
The big ship of the Su family mainly transports tea, and there are not many places where people can live. The Princess Xunyang has a prominent status, so there is no reason to let her and Su Jinxin squeeze her, so she can only let her live in Fan Yichu's place. As soon as Princess Xunyang and Qi'er left, Su Jinxin said, "Yi'er, you will sleep with Tianhua and the others tonight."
"Sister, it's not just tonight." Fan Yichu said dissatisfiedly, "That's my master's bed. I don't want to sleep with that stubborn little princess."
"Tomorrow we arrive at Kuaiji County, the rude princess you mentioned will clamor to change the boat, so you don't have to worry about her continuing to sleep in your bed." Why did Fan Fan become so petty? Su Jinxin smiled, Princess Xunyang and others were going to Jiangzhou, and the boat was everywhere in the province. Although they went south together, the water route was different. Besides, with the wet nurse Ruan, they would definitely try every means to persuade Princess Xunyang to change the boat, so that Princess Xunyang would not be able to save her secret with Qier.
Sure enough, as Su Jinxin expected, on the second day, as soon as the Su family's ship approached the ferry of Kuaiji County, the Xunyang Princess said goodbye to her. Before leaving, the Xunyang Princess once again instructed Lou Tian to protect Su Jinxin and Fan Yichu, and then he took Qier to board a luxurious and spectacular painting boat.
Finally leaving, the young master can finally sleep in his bed. Fan Yichu stood at the bow of the boat and shouted happily to Qier, "The unruly little princess will never be able to do anything later!"
The Qier on the painting boat stared at her little eyes and said to herself, "Little bad guy, wait, don't let me see you, otherwise I will not spare you."
The Su family's large ship sailed away from the Kuaiji County Ferry and continued to move south.
There were also several painting boats of prominent families who were traveling with the Su family. Although Su Jinxin didn't know which family's son was inside the painting boat, there was no need to guess that they must be some playboys. Relying on some money at home, they sang and danced day and night, and indulged in their voices. Miss Su Er felt more and more irritable when listening to the intoxicating sounds. So one morning, when the clouds and mist were scattered on the river, Miss Su Er was wearing a plain dress and fur coat to the bow of the boat. She held the purple bamboo flute that Master Yun gave her to her and blew a song "Wusheng".
"Wusheng" is an ancient song with endless sadness and deep sorrow, and the mourning part is suffocating. It is the kind of depression with tear-like pain, which tells life is worse than death.
The song is sad and has high requirements for the person who plays it. Therefore, almost few people in this world choose to play this song "Wusheng". After all, once they are not played well and cannot reach the true artistic conception of the song, they may be that they are not a tiger or a dog.
"Which bastard dares to disturb me when I sleep!" The sound of the flute came along, and in a short while, the painting boat closest to the Su family's ship was moving. A young man from a disheveled family ran out angrily and shouted, "What a song of howling in the morning..." Halfway through the words, when he saw the woman standing in the clouds, his curses stopped abruptly. He couldn't see the woman's appearance, and only felt that she was standing alone at the bow of the boat, so lonely and lonely, as if everything in this world had nothing to do with her, and she was just a passerby.
Su Jinxin got off the carriage and walked a few steps before he saw that the county yamen was shouting while beating the gongs and drums. Among these yamen, there was a blue official sedan chair, with three yamen runners guarding each side, majestic.
"Bah, corrupt official!"
In the crowd, Su Jinxin heard someone cursing at the county magistrate in the official sedan chair, and then the cursing sound never stopped.
Su Tianyao was a county magistrate in Songyang County. He always liked to set up clever names and impose various taxes. He also liked to indulge his subordinates, forcing people to rob people and fish and meat. Su Jinxin had some hearing about it. Now he saw it with his own eyes and heard the people of Songyang County curse Su Tianyao in a low voice. He felt a little gloating and couldn't help but say, "I am indeed a corrupt official." He scolded him well.
"Sister, who is the corrupt official?"
Su Jinxin spoke in a low voice, but Fan Yichu shouted loudly. How could he not be heard by the county officials, "Bold, you dare to insult the county magistrate!" and surrounded him without saying a word.
"He is a corrupt official, why can't I scold you?" Sister Su said she was a corrupt official, so the county magistrate must be a corrupt official. With Lou's guards here, Fan Yichu cursed loudly over and over again, "Corrupt officials, corrupt officials, corrupt officials..."
The people present were so scared that they took a breath, but they all admired Fan Yichu. It is rare to have such courage at such a young age and dare to speak out for justice.
As soon as Fan Yichu shouted, the people of Songyang County, who were deeply oppressed by Su Tianyao, also shouted, "Corrupt officials, corrupt officials..."
"Do you want to rebel?" These people under Su Tianyao were used to doing evil on weekdays. When they saw these people making trouble with Fan Yichu, they pulled out the knife on their waists and said fiercely, "Rebels, kill them without any hesitation!"
"Officials force the people to rebel. I think this is not what you Lord Su like to see." Su Jinxin pulled Fan Yichu to his side, and with a look, Lou Tian stepped forward, kicked the arrogant yamen officer away, and then stepped forward. Before the long sword in his hand moved, two more and three yamen officers fell to the ground.
On this side, Lou Tian and the Su family's guards fought with the officials from Songyang County. On the other side, Su Tianyao, who heard the reports from the yamen, said furiously, "I want to see who is causing trouble under my jurisdiction."
"Cousin Tianyao." The county magistrate was the opponent of Guard Lou. In a few seconds, Lou Tian broke his limbs and wailed all over the ground. Therefore, before Su Tianyao could get out of the official sedan chair, Su Jinxin walked over.
Miss Su Er shouted, which scared the county officials who were fighting. The sky, the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and they actually offended the adult's cousin and cousin. It is said that one of the adults' cousins was a tough character, and even the adults were afraid of three points. The more they thought about it, the more they were afraid of these officials.
"What are you doing in my Songyang County?" Seeing Su Jinxin, Su Tianyao naturally had no good expression.
"I went to Chuzhou Lin's house and just happened to pass by." Miss Su Er said without hesitation.
"Su Jinxin, this is my Songyang County. With my order, you don't want to step out of here today." Su Tianyao was furious. It would be fine if Su Jinxin, the cousin, was domineering in the Su family, but she dared to be arrogant in Songyang County. "Hmph, even if you are my cousin, you insult the imperial court official, I can still punish you!"
