Chapter 645 Chapter 643
"Xue Yougui, you are really promising, you dare to sue my master!" Xue Xia frowned, and shouted angrily.

Song Yuanxuan waved his hand and said: "Patriarch Xue, even if this incident is over, he will be punished accordingly, but in the future you should restrain him and not go out to cause trouble again.

I have already discussed it with the prefect government office, they will keep an eye on Xue Yougui, if he dares to do things like galloping horses in the city, then it will not be a matter of thirty army sticks. "

Xue Tao breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly saluted: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely ground him in the future, so that he won't be able to step out of the house for a year."

As soon as these words came out, Xue Yougui's face turned pale and he looked helpless, but after glancing at Song Yuanxuan, he lowered his head again and dared not say anything.

In any case, he had to deal with the matter in front of him, otherwise, if he was beaten again, he would not be able to get up for at least half a year.

Now that the thirty sticks have been beaten, he will not be able to sit still for a month, so at this moment he is still honest and dare not have other thoughts.

"Okay, I'll let Xiaoxia keep an eye on this matter. If Xue Yougui dares to go out within this year, then he will live in the dungeon of the government office for a while."

Song Yuanxuan smiled, then got up and said: "Let's stop here today, I took Xiaoxia back, this time I came to Jiangzhou for a temporary uprising, and I will leave the day after tomorrow, so I won't stay any longer.

Xiaoxia said that she missed her mother, so why don't she let her follow her mother to live in Li County for a period of time... This time, she rewarded Xue's family with 5 taels of silver, which should be regarded as repaying the kindness of the year. "

Xue Tao hastily said: "What happened back then, it is true that the Xue family was ashamed of Xiao Xia, but the father is no longer alive, this responsibility can only be borne by the old man, if the prince wants to punish him, he can punish the old man.

As for the matter of my mother going to Li County, we still need to discuss it. After all, my mother is old, and it is not appropriate to travel like this. When people are old, they always want to return to their roots. "

Song Yuanxuan didn't pay attention to Xue Tao, but set his eyes on Xue Xia. This matter depends on her opinion.

Xue Xia smiled slightly, looked at Xue Tao and said: "Brother, mother has already agreed, she said that she has seen the Xue family rise and fall, and now that brother is the head of the family, she doesn't have to worry about these things anymore.

She has never left Jiangnan in her life, and she also wants to go to the north to see, see the heavy snow all over the sky, see the appearance of the ice front thousands of miles away, and see the most powerful city in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so I took her away. . "

"Then prepare the horse." Song Yuanxuan got up and directly settled the matter.

Xue Tao hurriedly saluted and said: "My lord, please have dinner at Xue's house before going back, otherwise it would be a breach of etiquette."

"There is a chance next time. I still have a side concubine at home. I agreed to go back for dinner. If I don't go back, I will annoy her." Song Yuanxuan shrugged and strode out.

Naturally, Xue Tao didn't dare to say anything to keep Song Yuanxuan, but he just asked people to prepare the carriage and prepared some gifts. Song Yuanxuan gave the Xue family 5 taels of silver, and he always wanted to return gifts, and even more silver.

The silver should not be less than 5 taels, at least doubled, which puts enormous pressure on the Xue family.

It was only after Xue Xia whispered a few words in his ear that he relaxed and took two boxes with him.

Xue's mother was not young, with gray hair, about 60 years old, and took two maids into the carriage. The maids were in their 20s, and they were pretty and pretty.

According to Xue Xia, these two servant girls have served Mother Xue for more than ten years, and they have already developed feelings for each other, so Mother Xue asked to take them with them.

The two carriages drove out of Xue's house one after the other. Xue Tao and the members of Xue's family knelt on the ground until the carriage disappeared in front of his eyes.

Xue Yougui leaned in front of Xue Tao, shrank his neck and said, "Father, don't you really want to ground me for a year?"

"What do you think?" Xue Tao said softly, and then sighed: "Originally, the prince should have dinner at Xue's house, in that case it would be the honor of Xue family.

But you made such a fuss and made the prince unhappy. We missed this opportunity. It’s okay if you can’t help but this time I won’t let people stare at you. If you want to sneak out, just go out.

But I believe that the government office will definitely watch you. If you fall into their hands, you will be imprisoned in a dungeon for a year. If you can endure this hardship, then just go out . "

Xue Yougui was stunned, and then said with a distressed face: "Your Highness is really ruthless!"

"Bastard! How dare you arrange the prince behind his back? If these words are spread, our Xue family will be destroyed! Look at the thousands of acres of fertile land we have now, did we have it before?
If the prince hadn't gained power, would our Xue family have such glory?During the time of the former emperor, our Xue family was not allowed to be an official. Now that we are well, we can finally enter the court as an official. If you don’t study hard and try to win a Jinshi, what should you do if you continue like this? "

Xue Tao kicked him again. He was going to kick his ass, but when he thought about it, he kicked his leg just after being hit by the stick.

When the eyes of several Xue family members around fell on Xue Yougui, with a bit of sarcasm, the Xue family was indeed facing a chance to rise again.

The Xue family has not been reused in the past 50 years, but there are also many people who secretly study hard for the glory of the family. Now the opportunity has come, as long as they can enter the court, even officials below the fifth rank can bring More convenience.

So Xue Yougui's actions are indeed very stupid, and now that he has even offended Song Yuanxuan, it will inevitably make people feel even more stupid.

Xue Yougui looked around for a few times, felt the strangeness in many people's eyes, gritted his teeth slightly, and said loudly: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely study hard in the future!"

"I hope so." Xue Tao sighed, became interested for a moment, turned and left.

Xue Yougui gritted his teeth and strode away, but his heart was full of anger, and there was even a kind of grief and anger for a while.

On the carriage, Song Yuanxuan sat with Yan Danchen and Xie Liuyan, and Xue Xia accompanied her mother. Along the way, Xie Liuyan and Yan Danchen each held his arm and rested their heads on his shoulder.

"Master, you should restrain your relatives in the future, otherwise someone will take advantage of their power to bully others." Xie Liuyan said softly, then changed the subject: "Liu Shui and I are both master's side concubines, and the favor we have received is even more prosperous. I will tell you Thank you family."

"There's nothing wrong with me here, after all, Yaowanggu shouldn't borrow my name." Yan Danchen said lightly.

Song Yuanxuan thought for a while, and then smiled slightly: "You can restrain the family, but don't worry too much, as laws and regulations are pushed out, as long as knowledge continues to spread, people will always have the opportunity to appeal.

In addition, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple have set up departments to accept grievances, allowing some voices from the people to enter the court, so that there will be more constraints. "

Xie Liuyan thought for a while, then nodded seriously: "Master is right, as long as the common people have a chance to redress their grievances, then the world will be clear."

"When the water is clear, there are no fish. The same is true in the officialdom. Sometimes you have to allow some harmless mistakes. How to choose between them is also a science."

Song Yuanxuan responded, and then stretched out his arms to wrap around the waists of the two women, with some warmth in his eyes.

 thank you all!
