Jinghong Tower

Chapter 309: Selling the House (two chapters in one)

After much deliberation, Zhou Cangyue told He Ran the details in his dream.

“They wanted to raise me to be a useless person, and then when they saw that I was rebellious, they wanted to use the animal school to transform me into an obedient fool.

Wait until I reach the age of eighteen before I, a fool, can inherit the inheritance.

Then they let me die and went from being my guardian to the heir to my estate. "

The more Zhou Cangyue wrote, the angrier he became. Unfortunately, he was too angry at the time and woke up immediately, unable to kill the pair of beasts in his dream.

Alas, there was another pity. He didn't know whether Sister Ran would be admitted to the university of her choice if she didn't want to go to the military academy.

Sister Ran studies painting, she will probably become a painter.

He Ran seems to be able to draw as well.
In the dream, he did not study hard and did not know that art students could apply for other majors besides becoming painters.

Zhou Cangyue really wanted to tell He Ran that there was a sister Ran in his dream who looked very similar to her and could also draw.

But he didn't dare. He was quite shameless in the dream. Sister Ran was so kind to him, but he hid in the corner and peeped.

Therefore, the letter He Ran received contained five pages of Zhou Cangyue's accusations against the couple.

After reading this letter, He Ran silently complained that Zhou Cangyue's two lives were merged together, and it was like "my father and stepmother made money and killed me to support me. Many years later, I led the army to level their graves."

I don’t know who Zhou Cangyue’s biological father is in this life.

For the first time, He Ran didn't know how to reply.

But she knew in her heart that Zhou Cangyue just wanted to talk, and it was best to talk to someone who was far away and difficult to meet.

Just like modern people, they don’t want their secrets to be known to their relatives and friends, but instead tell strangers online.

In He Ran's reply to Zhou Cangyue, he discussed with him the arrangements for Bai Zhiyu.

Bai Zhiyu is the number one scholar, and He Ran loves talents and wants him to stay in the capital. But Bai Zhiyu was sent here by Zhou Cangyue. What if Zhou Cangyue is reluctant and wants Bai Zhiyu to return to Xiangyang.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Cangyue was so generous. It would be great to stay in the capital.

He Ran had sent a team to him. Even if he couldn't bear to leave Bai Zhiyu, he was too embarrassed to mention it.

In the blink of an eye, midsummer entered, Feng Zan's army conquered Qingzhou City, and Bai Yan finally returned to his hometown after many years of absence.

In the early morning, Bai Yan rode out of the city and came to the graves of his wife and daughter. The graves were covered with thorns and there were no tombstones.

He did not dare to erect a monument because he was worried that his wife and daughter's graves would be destroyed.

Bai Yan sat in front of their graves and did not leave silently until noon.

The city of Qingzhou was destroyed, but the King of Qi was still alive. Not only was he alive, but he also became the emperor.

Feng Zan knew that Bai Yan was from Qingzhou and that Bai Yan was King Zhao's master. However, it was not until he came to Qingzhou that he learned from other people that the death of Bai Yan's family was all due to the persecution of King Qi.

Feng Zan was shocked, and then he yelled.

"Damn it, I really regarded King Qi as a figure before. He is a beast inferior to a pig and a dog. I should have gone to the capital to kill him that day!"

Feng Zan said to his cronies: "Whoever revealed this matter, find him and whip him. Anyone who dares to mention this matter in the future will be whipped to death!"

That person must have had bad intentions when he revealed the news.

Soon, the person who revealed the information was found. This person was a scholar, and he had actually been sponsored by Bai Yan. When something happened to the Bai family, he was so scared that he hid and never mentioned that he knew Bai Yan.

Now that Bai Yan is back, he has caused a sensation among the scholars in Qingzhou City.

Those people did not expect that Bai Yan not only did not die, but also transformed into a teacher of King Zhao.

King Zhao has already entered the capital. Once he becomes emperor, Bai Yan will be the emperor's teacher.

Some people were envious, and some were jealous, so the news that Bai Yan's daughter was insulted and died spread out among these scholars. The initiator was the scholar who had been sponsored by Bai Yan.

After Feng Zan found out the man's identity, he was whipped thirty times in public. The lashes were so severe that the man's skin and flesh were torn, and he was worse than dead.

Feng Zan's voice was cold: "If I hadn't hung up the flag of Ran Jun now, it wouldn't have been just these thirty whips.

According to my previous temper, I will pull out your tongue first to see if you still dare to talk nonsense.

Ungrateful villain!
Pooh!
Don't think I'm a big boss, I look down on you! "

The people onlookers cursed the scholar for being shameless, but Feng Zan's evil reputation was also spread.

Although Feng Zan was fierce, he was strict in running the army. After Ran's army entered the city, they did not burn, kill or loot, and even sent people to arrest the thieves who took advantage of the chaos. The people in Qingzhou City had a good impression of Ran's army.

After Bai Yan learned about this, he said nothing. The other officials who came this time quickly took over the local government office, allowing Feng Zan to have no worries and concentrate on recovering other territories in Qingzhou.

In the capital, He Ran finally met Lao Guanghuai and Mrs. Shangguan.

When the King of Qi moved the capital, Lao Guanghuai and his family traveled south with him. Before they arrived at Jinling, Lao Guanghuai complained of illness and stayed in Shunde Mansion for half a month. It was not until the royal family settled in Jinling that the couple arrived. After arriving, they continued to complain of illness.

Lao Guanghuai was old, so it was a bumpy road and it was normal for him to fall ill.

Soon, Lao Guanghuai submitted his resignation and asked for the remains.

He was transferred back to the capital, moved the capital before he could secure his seat, and kept complaining of illness when he arrived in Jinling. Therefore, the King of Qi had no impression of him, and others were eager to let him vacate his seat, so Lao Guanghuai successfully retired to seclusion and took his wife with him. Reunion with sons in Yangzhou.

As He Ran's reputation grew, Lao Guanghuai knew that King Qi would think of him sooner or later. After discussing with his sons, he quietly sold his family property and left Yangzhou.

As soon as they left, the people sent by King Qi arrived, but the building was empty and the Lao family had disappeared.

After He Hua and A Jin went south, they secretly inquired for information, and finally got in touch with Uncle Lao half a year ago.

He Ran sent He Jiangqi and the Eagle Team south, and it took three months to finally bring the Lao family to the capital.

He Ran saw that Lao Guanghuai and Mrs. Shangguan were getting older.

She respected these two old people very much. They wanted to cut Mr. He and Yan into pieces and humiliate them in public. However, in order not to worry about her, they still suppressed their anger and just let the two disappear.

Mr. He even "disappeared" with his good reputation and official position. In the future, the He family will build a tomb for him, and his rank and official position will be engraved on the tombstone.

And the reason why the Lowes did this was all because of He Ran.

At that time, they did not know that He Ran would rebel. They simply hoped that He Ran could get married happily like other girls.

You won't be affected by those two bitches, you don't have to keep filial piety for them, and you don't have to delay your marriage because of them.

Whenever he thinks of these, He Ran will feel grateful to them.

They are the people in this world who pity the original body and treat the original body the best.

Maybe Lan Ruo is really their granddaughter.

It was because of this pity that He Ran wanted to protect the Lao family. In addition to the Lao couple and their two sons, as well as their daughter-in-law and grandchildren, those arriving in the capital this time also included Lao Guanghuai's younger brother and his family.

Lao Guanghuai's house in the capital has not been sold, and now the two families live there.

After He Ran learned about it, he gave another house to the Lao family.

The capital city is different from the land of Jin. When he was in the land of Jin, He Ran had many houses in his hands, which were snatched from the hands of the King of Jin and the Cai family.

Although there were many empty houses in the capital, she couldn't just use them because the owners of those houses were now in Aurous Hill.

However, Master He has no obligation to look after the house for others.

In troubled times, the most valuable thing is not the house, but gold.

Therefore, when Head He Da came to Beijing, he confiscated all the houses in the clan's hands. Some of them were kept as rewards for meritorious ministers, while others were sold to the household department under Nie Chen's temporary supervision for money.

The news that He Ran had sold off the clan property soon spread to Jinling. The clan members cursed loudly, but they had no other choice but to scold He Ran for being shameless.

He Ran almost smiled and said to them: Come and beat me if you can!

Of course they didn't dare to hit He Ran, so they could only stomp their feet and curse in their own homes.

If others ask about this, they will grit their teeth and say, "Aren't they just a few properties? If you don't tell me, I will forget about them. I will give them to that evil woman named He."

Because of He Ran's sale of the clan's property, the word "shameless" was put in front of He Ran's name.

Shameless He Ran.

After He Ran heard about it, instead of being angry, he laughed.

Is this shameless?
She feels that her biggest shortcoming is that she is not shameless enough.

So, He Ran asked Nie Chen to sort out a group of houses, which belonged to the Liu family.

The head of the Liu family, Liu Shanhe, was the chief assistant who was highly valued by the King of Qi. He was ranked third on the most powerful list in the world, right after He Ran.

He Ran confiscated all the Liu family's houses and shops in Beijing and Qingzhou, a total of fifty-nine, and 3,600 acres of land except for the sacrificial fields!
He Ran was worried that the news would not spread quickly enough, so he sent a letter flying pigeons, ordering A Jin and He Hua to spread the news to the ears of the Liu family going south.

Sure enough, once the news came out, the Liu family couldn't sit still.

Although, when they left the capital, they had thought that their family fortune would probably be in vain, but they still had a trace of luck in their hearts. Maybe they would be able to go back in a few years.

Besides, with so many people going south, can they still take away all their property?

If you can’t grab everything, there will always be fish that slip through the net.

When they learned that He Ran had confiscated all the clan's properties and fields, they secretly laughed at the clan's desperate need to save face.

But now it's their turn. Although they also thought that these family properties would not be saved, when the day came, they couldn't sit still.

They dragged their entire family to the Chief Assistant's Mansion and gave Liu Shanhe's mother and wife a hard time.

"What's that? She knows who we are, and she can't take it from us. But who makes us unlucky? There is a chief minister in the clan, and he has not benefited from anything, but he has taken over the family. All the karma is lost.”

"Yeah, how can we live like this? I can't live anymore. We, the whole family, can't even lift the pot."

"Your family is the family of the chief minister and a powerful minister. One person is less than ten thousand people. You are prosperous and wealthy, but you can't let the whole family take the blame for you. Then it is your family that He Ran hates!"

Mrs. Liu was extremely angry. Even if He Ran didn't take away your family property, you couldn't keep it. Now it's better, it's all on my family. Who can bear this?
Mrs. Liu has never been wronged in her life, not to mention that now her son has become the first assistant. Even the Queen will smile and call her "Old Madam" when she sees her.

Besides, these poor relatives, if it weren't for our family, you might not even be able to come to Jinling, and you would have been captured by He Ran and used as cannon fodder. What grievances do you have?

Mrs. Liu went all out and drove these relatives out without mercy.

But this was only the first batch. Except for the sacrificial fields, all the family properties were sold off, and this involved more than just a few families.

The Liu family has never been so lively. In one day, seven groups of relatives came to the Liu family.

Mrs. Liu is very powerful, but there are relatives in the Liu family who are even more powerful than her.

Mrs. Liu couldn't even make it into the top ten in the Liu family's combat power rankings.

Old Madam Liu was very angry, and Madam Liu was also very angry, because she had just received the news that He Ran had so many supernatural powers that he even dug up her family's property and sold it together!

Shameless, so shameless.

Sure enough, the next day, Mrs. Liu's mother came to her door with her sister-in-law. She changed her usual intellectual and graceful attitude, pointed at Mrs. Liu's nose and cursed her. After asking, she found out that it was her relatives who had gone to the house to make trouble. pass.

It took a lot of effort for Mrs. Liu to persuade my mother to leave, and then turned around to find Liu Shanhe.

He Ran hated the Liu family, so why would she want to hook up with her natal family?

How will she face her family in the future?

In this era, if a woman no longer has her natal family, no matter how well she marries, she will not have the confidence to do so.

The more Mrs. Liu thought about it, the sadder she became. She rushed into the study, frightened Liu Shanhe and quickly pushed away the beautiful concubine in his arms.

At this time, does he still have the intention to flirt with Hu Meizi?
Mrs. Liu rushed forward and caught Liu Shanhe with a face full of flowers.

Liu Shanhe never dreamed that his always gentle and generous wife would turn out to be a hateful shrew when she went crazy!

From this day on, the relationship between husband and wife dropped to a freezing point.

Liu Shanhe learned that the Yue family was affected by him, but he didn't think it was a big deal.

The benefits the Yue family received because of him far outweighed today's losses.

The same is true for the relatives in the Liu family. Without him, the Liu family would be just a small, third-rate family. And now there are more than a dozen Liu family members serving as officials in the court, not to mention the huge family wealth.

What He Ran snatched was only a small part of them. It was like they had their flesh cut off, and they all fell on his head.

He supported his people, but in the end he raised a pack of wolves.

Those people in the Yue family are also wolves.

When the new emperor learned that the Liu family's property had been sold by He Ran, he ordered two carts of rewards to be delivered to the Liu Mansion. The Liu family members woke up from a dream. Are they in a daze?
Liu Shanhe was highly regarded by the emperor and had great power. With such a golden thigh, they had plenty of opportunities to make money. Why should they feel bad about what was taken away by He Ran, not to mention that they could not get it back in the first place.

Then Liu Shanhe saw another face. The relatives who had glared at him the day before were now following him like dogs wagging their tails and begging for mercy.

As for the Yue family, Liu Shanhe no longer intends to give them face.

He Ran also heard about these things about the Liu family. The news was not sent by A Jin, but by Xiugu.

Xiugu did not return to Huizhou, she now lives in Jinling.

He Rancai is too lazy to take care of the disputes in the Liu family. She is now addicted to selling her house. She has no choice but to make her short of money.
