Chapter 1928 Stop, Make a Robbery 86
After an incense stick of time, all the boxes of the team were opened, and seeing that in the opened wooden boxes, there were books besides clothes, Xining couldn't believe it.

Looking back, it was true that there were no other cars following behind, but I was still not sure: "That's all?"

This is an official returning to Beijing for the New Year. You must know that the welfare of this dynasty is the best in all known dynasties. Even in such a wealthy previous dynasty, the salary of an official for a year is only that of an official of this dynasty for a month.

It's almost the Chinese New Year when I return to Beijing, and I will definitely bring money back.

The one who was robbed was an old man in his 50s, with gray hair and beard, who had just put on winter clothes, with a disdainful expression on his face: "The sky is bright and the sky is bright, and there are still people robbing halfway."

The clothes are the regular clothes issued by the imperial court.Even the clothes are covered by the imperial court, which shows that the welfare of officials is not low.

A bit arrogant, Xining actually likes this kind of person, although he is a bit old-fashioned, but ordinary people lack this kind of upright official.

The servant next to him couldn't see it anymore, and shouted: "We are honest and upright all our lives, you robbed the wrong person."

A follower came forward and clasped his fists: "May I ask if it is Mr. Zhong Ling?"

"It's the old man!" Xiang Zhong Ling stroked the beard on his chest, although his fingers were red from the cold and his whole body was shivering because there was no brazier in the car, he still maintained the integrity that a literati should have.

To Zhong Ling?Xining looked at the entourage, and the entourage explained in a low voice: "Master Xiang is a well-known upright official."

"But the salary of upright officials?" She was still puzzled.You must know that this dynasty supported honesty with generous salary. If you are a first-rank official, your income is equivalent to one million in future annual income.

Xiang Zhongling's old slave couldn't help but said: "That's because my lord always uses his own salary to subsidize the people. The drought in the past few years, and the hailstorm later, the government's disaster relief food couldn't arrive for a while, so my lord put all the family wealth into it." It's..."

"Hmm~" Xiang Zhong Ling drew a nasal voice, warning the old slave not to say any more.

Xining blinked her eyes: "For the money pasted in, write a letter and ask the household department for it."

The old slave is old, probably an old man in the mansion, older than Xiang Zhongling.At this age, dare to say something.So I stood up for my master: "I wrote it, but I haven't seen any approval. At that time, I asked the merchants to borrow money, and then I carried the disaster over. All the adults' salaries have been paid off in recent years. This year, the debts are repaid. Don't, otherwise you will have to sell the old house to pay off the debt before entering Beijing. You guys came to rob, and you really hit the wrong person. This time, my lord really didn't bring any money with you. When you enter Beijing, you have to visit some acquaintances , Borrow some money to survive until next month when the salary is paid."

Xi Ning couldn't help being awed, there are not many such fools, I didn't expect that they really existed.He bowed to Xiang Zhong Ling, but he looked like he was wearing brocade clothes, but he was doing quack salutes, which was a bit nondescript.

Xiang Zhongling still stood there with his back straight, stroking his beard: "It's the reward of the emperor and the matter of loyalty to the emperor. Since you are an official, you should protect the people of one side. This is what an official should do."

Xining looked at the luggage in the car, except for books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, there was nothing of value.There are also official uniforms inside, which are the fifth grade.In the bullock cart with people, there is not even a charcoal basin, only a quilt to keep out the cold.

An official of the fifth rank, who can be so poor, is indeed a very good and honest official.

Xi Ning asked Yun Lian next to her, "How much money did you bring today?"

Yun Lian took out her purse: "That's all."

Xi Ning knew the approximate amount after he took it, just like in the past, two strings of ten big copper coins plus five or six cents of broken silver.Anyway, if you don't have enough money, you can still rob.It's just that today the boat capsized in the gutter and robbed an upright official.

Turning to ask the person next to you: "How much you have brought, I will borrow it."

So everyone took out the silver one after another, and Liu Lu had the most money, because Li Cheng handed over five taels of silver as soon as he saw her, and he was very conscious of being robbed, which made Liu Lu flushed immediately.

Packed together, about a dozen taels of silver.Xi Ning asked Yun Lian to pass the money to the old slave next to her: "It's getting cold today, I can't live without money, take it."

"Thank you, hero!" The old slave quickly took it.People are poor and short-sighted, and now it doesn't matter who owns the money. After entering Beijing, they need money to live and eat. This money is enough for everyone to live for half a month. If they don't take it, they have to wait for their own adults to give it to them The face is knocking on the door everywhere, begging for a loan.

Xiang Zhong Ling was taken aback, and immediately reprimanded the old slave: "Repay it immediately, this is the robber's money!"

Xining rolled her eyes, turned her head and left.

"Come back, take the money back, I don't accept bribes!" Xiang Zhongling was in a hurry, but the old slave beside him was holding the money bag tightly with both hands, because of the cold, the money bag was almost buried in his arms.

"Wrong, it's robbery!" Xining pulled up the cloak trimmed with fox fur, and helped Yunlian's hand to get into the car.

And Tao Hong Liu Lu also got into the car extremely fast, and everyone ran away in no time.

Looking at the extremely fast group of people, and here are all old and weak, no one can catch up.It was indeed a robbery just now, but whoever heard of it, the robbers paid for it...Xiang Zhongling could only mess around in the snowy cold wind.

It was another morning morning, and Xiang Zhong Ling came out of the court and knelt down to thank him.

"Exemption from courtesy and peace!" Emperor Dechang only remembered that the second generation of the Xiang family was an official, recommended by Zhong Lingjing, and returned to Beijing to be a writer and editor of national history.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After Xiang Zhong Ling got up, after thinking for a while, he mustered up his courage: "I want to impeach Princess Yong'an, but as a princess, I know that I broke the law and robbed..."

This was the beginning, and all the ministers looked at each other in surprise.Isn't this Princess Yong'an only robbing rich royal relatives, why did she actually rob officials this time?

Emperor Dechang got a headache when he heard this, what happened to Princess Yong'an, isn't a group of princes, even the fifth prince, enough to rob him?
"...We must not encourage this trend, Your Majesty, please investigate thoroughly!" Xiang Zhong Ling knelt down again, although she was getting older, she still knelt straight.

Check it out, check it out!I didn't know that she was the posthumous daughter of the King of Chu, the heart and eyes of the Queen Mother.

But I can't always smile and say: "Hehe, isn't it just a robbery, why take it seriously."

Forget it, let's ask how much money was robbed first, and pay some later, just to calm down the hungry.Emperor Dechang asked, "I don't know how much I lost to Aiqing?"

Xiang Zhong Ling hesitated: "This..."

Is it a lot?Forget it, come to report from Heihuzhai, and he will bring [-] years old coins in a short time, and he will have money to pay.

The treasury has money, and the confident Emperor Dechang chased after him and asked, "How much?"

Hearing the official's protracted tone, he was obviously a little displeased, so Xiang Zhong Ling could only answer honestly: "11 taels of silver, plus 57 Wen."

Emperor Dechang heaved a sigh of relief, it was only 11 taels, and he would pay 20 taels later, no, no, 50 taels, it seems generous.

But what he said next made him think he heard it wrong.

Xiang Zhongling said with some difficulty: "The minister was not robbed of the money, the money was given to the minister by Princess Yong'an."

"What, what did you say?"

"The money was given to the minister by Princess Yong'an, and forced into the minister."

The whole court...
