Ma Erniang's Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 200
The white-skinned and white-bearded middle-aged man squinted his eyes and clicked his lips: "Then let a few companies urge them to see how they respond."

"Yes, Lord." The steward immediately arranged for people to go down.

When the steward arrived at his own site, his actions were very sloppy, and he immediately called a few capable men, "You can choose as many as you want, and let them go to Mafu to collect debts, and if they don't get the money, they will block the door and don't come back."

"Yes, boss, the younger ones will do it right away."

The steward glanced at Xiao Luoluo: "Be careful with your actions, don't let anyone catch you."

"Boss, don't worry, we have done this kind of thing many times, and no one will notice us."

"Yeah." The steward said, "It's good to know."

One of the little Luo Luo said: "Boss, don't worry, the people below are watching. The Ma family is very timid. They must have gone to collect money these days."

The steward's triangular eyes cast a dark shadow on him: "Don't think I don't know about the Ma family. The third wife of Ma has been silent since she went to the Beijun Prince's Mansion. She probably didn't get any money. You need to work harder."

"Yes, yes, boss." Xiao Luoluo didn't dare to be shy when he saw that he hadn't been flattered and had been exposed.

The leader Xiao Luoluo led a few people to go out quickly. After they left, the younger Luoluo surrounded him, "Brother, there is no movement at all in Ma's house."

"20 taels, probably fainted from fright, the superiors told us to add fire and get the money quickly."

"Boss, there are so many this time, we can't do it alone."

"That's natural. Hurry up and find your brothers. If you don't get money today, you will never stop."

"Okay, brother, let's go."

-

At the back door of Beijun Prince's Mansion, a young man with slender legs and long feet was running in the cold wind. He arrived at the door in a blink of an eye, and the door opened without even knocking. "Did you come back and forth?"

"Yes!"

"Then come in quickly."

The young boy was quickly taken to the recovery room. Ma Min'er was sitting inside with her hands on her forehead, her eyebrows lowered in thought, and when she heard the sound of walking at the door, she immediately raised her eyes, "Is there any news?"

"Yes, young lady, they moved."

"Already at the gate of Mafu?"

"When I came, they had already reached the entrance of the alley."

Ma Min'er stood up suddenly, and said to Zhuang Hao who was opposite: "The show has begun, and we are all relying on you here."

Zhuang Hao had already stood up: "Young Madam, don't worry, I will do my best."

"Okay." Ma Min'er took a deep breath, "Whether it's knocking mountains to shake tigers, or killing chickens and respecting monkeys, whether we can live peacefully in Beijing depends on this time."

Zhuang Hao nodded slightly, showing a slight smile: "Young Madam, be careful."

"it is good."

Zhang Nianmei had been sitting in the corner, and seeing Ma Miner stand up, he had already stood beside her, and followed her out of the hall.

At the corner of the corridor, Ma Qifeng stood there with his youngest son in his arms, "Min'er—" He already knew that his third brother was extorted 20 taels, and he didn't know how his daughter would solve it, with a worried expression on his face.

"Father, it's cold outside, take brother and aunt Wan back to the room."

"Second Sister..." Ma Yue'er trotted to her sister's side, putting her arms around her waist, "Don't go out, let brother-in-law take care of outside affairs."

"Your brother-in-law has your brother-in-law's affairs."

"Second Sister..." For some reason, Ma Yue'er's eyelids kept twitching, feeling that something serious was about to happen, so she hugged her tightly.

"Yue'er, don't worry, go with the third brother to take care of the younger brother."

"Second sister..."

"Be good, little sister, trust the second sister, the second sister is a lucky baby."

"Aren't you the Goddess of Rain, why have you become a blessed baby again?" Ma Yueer held back the tears that were about to shed.

"If I am the Goddess of Rain, then you don't have to worry!" Ma Min'er smiled and said, "Help Second Sister with housework, Second Sister will be back soon."

"Okay." Ma Yueer sighed secretly, loosened the arms of the second sister, "Come back early."

"Ah."

"Er Niang..." Although Mo Wanyi didn't understand the nature of the matter, she felt it was troublesome, "If it's not easy to solve, we... we can ask Grand Master Feng for help."

"Okay, Aunt Wan, don't worry, I will ask my wife for help."

"That's good." Mo Wanyi smiled reassuringly.

Ma Min'er said again: "Third brother, read more when you have time, don't be obsessed with playing."

Masanlang nodded: "I'll read a book later."

She smiled at them, turned around and left. When Zhang Nianmei turned around, she bowed her hands to everyone, and followed Ma Miner out of the gate of the mansion. At the gate of the mansion, Gu Dun was waiting there with six hundred guards.

Seeing Ma Min'er and Zhang Nianmei, "If they weren't allowed to enter the city, I would have pulled 2 horses here."

"Fatty Gu, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and lead the team."

"Yes, General Zhang!" At this moment, Gu Dun lost his usual hippie smile and returned the military salute solemnly.

Before Ma Min'er got on the horse, she glanced at the people following her, as if she was looking for someone.

Shan Xiaodan immediately stepped forward, "Are you looking for Xiaoyou?"

"What about people?"

"Still following the path we're taking with Dayouhe."

Ma Miner nodded, "Tell him to be careful."

"Yes." Shan Xiaodan held his breath and asked Xia Xiaoren to let Ma Min'er ride in the carriage, and she landed on the next carriage.

After turning around the alley of Beijun Prince's Mansion and turning into the main road of the capital, the passers-by on the street didn't expect so many guards and guards to pour out in the alley, and they all moved to the side of the street in surprise.

After standing still, I saw the guard of honor clearly, "What is this for?"

"I do not know!"

"Is it going out of the city to offer incense?"

"possible."

"Sure enough, it's the Prince's Mansion of Beijun. The journey of this trip is really leveraged."

"That is, it is really expensive and rich, comparable to the relatives of the emperor!"

……

Ma Min'er was sitting in the carriage, listening to the discussion outside, her expression was normal, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking from her expression.

Xia Xiaoren sat on the bench next to her with her arms folded, and glanced at her a few times. She was not a good talker, so despite all the curiosity and doubts in her heart, she behaved without saying a word.

-

In an unknown corner, Jing Mo was standing in the corner with his sword in his arms, when a shadow guard came over and immediately asked, "Did you find him?"

"The location has been touched, but it is not easy to get close, and there is no way to go in and verify it."

Shocked Mo's eyes were tightly closed, "If there is no way, I have to find a way."

"Yes, surprise the general." The dark guard flashed away again.

-

Liu Zaili was standing in the dungeon. One of Nanmanzi had committed suicide, and the other had his tongue gagged to prevent him from committing suicide. He couldn't commit suicide, but he couldn't ask questions.

Turn around and walk away, "Think of another way."

"Yes, sir."

Liu Zaili quickly transferred to the private house on the ground. As soon as he entered the house, someone approached him, "Master, there is something happening about what you asked us to watch."

"Say--"

The person who happened said: "Several restaurants sent cashiers to Ma Lao San's house."

"Is Ma Chaofeng at home?"

"Master Hui, I'm not here. I have an early morning today."

Liu Zaili sat down behind the desk indifferently, "Just keep staring."

"Grandpa, what else..."

Liu Zaili raised his eyes.

The person who happened said: "My lord, the Beijun Prince's Mansion was dressed in Chinese clothes, and he took six hundred guards out of the alley and onto the street."

Liu Zaili's eyes suddenly changed, "So many people?"

"Yes, it caused many people to watch in the streets and alleys."

Liu Zaili quickly asked, "Where are we now?"

"It looks like they are going to Mafu, but they are not going fast, and they are a little slow."

"Take six hundred guards and walk through the market?" Liu Zaili was a little puzzled.

"Master, for the official ceremony, the emperor will travel with more than a thousand people, the prince with 800 people, and the county king with up to 600 people." The steward said.

"What day is it today, do you need an official guard?"

"Back to the prince, the winter solstice will be in a few days. It is a grand festival. Maybe the princess of Beijun will lead people to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense."

"Xiangguo Temple is in the west, where are they going?"

"East...to the south." The steward's face turned pale, "Ma Fengchao's house is in the south of Dongcheng."

What does she want to do?This sentence Liu Zaili just wanted to ask himself secretly in his heart.

"Master, if there's nothing wrong, the younger one will leave first."

"Wait a minute—" Liu Zaidao said suddenly, "Hurry up and send more people to pay close attention to Princess Beijun."

"Yes, my lord."

-

On the second floor of a morning tea house in Beijing, Liu Zaiwen was sitting among a group of young students, listening to them discussing knowledge and pointing out current problems. Sometimes they laughed and laughed, and sometimes they faced each other. Who do you think is right?"

At this time, Liu Zaiwen would put down the cup in his hand, and smiled softly, "Everyone is right, and no one is right. You only said what you want to say one-sidedly, and you don't have the big heart of a saint, so I don't judge who is right and who is wrong."

"Brother Ziwen, you're like this again..."

Liu Zaiwen smiled lightly: "The Master said: If you don't worry about others, you don't know yourself, and you don't know others.

The questioner said sincerely, "Is the sage's words reasonable? They are also reasonable. What Ziwen said is very true. I'm going to be arrogant." Well, anyway, flattering people quietly is the skill of these stinky literati.

"Brother Wen Bing, why be modest." Liu Zaiwen said with a smile: "The evidence you gave one by one just now is very convincing."

"Brother Ziwen's words are right, I'm not as good as Ziwen."

The back-and-forth debate seemed to be over, and Liu Zaiwen's servant leaned into his ear, "Master, there is something lively on the street."

"Really!" Liu Zaiwen's voice seemed a little louder.

When the students heard that there was excitement, they hurriedly looked out of the window of the tea house, but unfortunately they couldn't see anything, "Hey, there is excitement to watch?"

"Back to you, gentlemen, this street is not so lively." The entourage replied immediately.

"Where is that?"

"Go to the big street in the south of Dongcheng."

"What's the fun?"

"It's Bei..." The boy was interrupted by Liu Zaiwen before he finished speaking, "In half an hour, it will be noon, why don't I invite you all to have a rub."

"Brother Ziwen, what a kindness, and let you spend money again."

"It's all for one meal." Liu Zaiwen didn't care, "Let's go to a restaurant on Dongcheng South Street, and eat while looking at the scenery on the street. It's not an elegant thing."

"It's indeed an elegant thing, so thank you brother Ziwen."

-

Although the niece told her to calm down and pretended that nothing happened, the man didn't come back for a day, and Mrs. Ma's heart was like a knife. On the outside, if there is no man, this family will be like the uncle's family, scattered in all directions, the most realistic thing is that Mei'er will not even be able to return to her mother's family.

This man is still useful, he can't have an accident, Mrs. Ma San has been in fear, but something she didn't want to see happened, and those restaurant managers still came to ask for money.

The niece said she wanted to help her solve it, but she still came to her door, "Madam... Madam..."

The concierge stumbled in to report back, but before he could say anything, the creditors behind had already squeezed in, "Madam Ma, I have received all the IOUs, why don't you pay back the money?"

"Does your family want to eat free food?"

"If you want to do this, you can't blame us for not caring about Ma Tongfeng's face, and let everyone in Beijing know that your Ma family is a family that eats, drinks, and pays for nothing."

"Yep……"

"Hurry up and pay back the money..."

……

A few words from you and me, Mrs. Ma San's ears were buzzing like bees, and she kept ringing, "No, no..." She no longer has the dignity and bearing of being a housewife, and her face is full of tears. Lian, poor as a bereaved dog.

Min Niang...Min Niang...Didn't you say you helped me solve it?Where are you... Mrs. Ma San kept calling Ma Min'er in her heart against the buzzing sound, come and save me, come and save Ma's family!

The noise in the main hall alarmed Mrs. Ma, she took her servants to the front hall, and saw a group of men begging for money around their daughter-in-law, she was very angry, and called Xiang, "What are you doing, counting around a woman?" what happened?"

The steward turned around, "You are..."

"You don't care who I am, this is not a place for you to ask for money, hurry up... hurry up..."

"Mother... Mother..." Mrs. Ma San seemed to have grasped at straws, and hurried to her mother-in-law.

"It turned out to be Master Ma San's mother. It just so happens that your son owes our restaurant 3000 taels, so hurry up and take it out."

"Who said my son owes you money?" Mrs. Ma said this, obviously lacking confidence.

"Your son has already signed and pledged, the old lady can't help but you don't recognize it..."

"Yes, it's up to you not to admit it, take the money quickly..."

"I...you...then what do you want from my son, what do you want from our wives?"

"Your son is hiding. I can find it there. Your house is erected here. If we don't look for you, are you looking for a push?"

"Guan Zhang is right, we don't ask you for it, we ask someone else."

……

The stewards all brought a few entourages, and they rushed up to talk, as if they were eating people, Mrs. Ma and Mrs. Ma's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had never hugged each other like this before, "Come here, drive these people out. "After all, the old lady was the mistress of Shengshi, and she was still a little calm, but unfortunately there were not many servants in the family, and no one dared to step forward to stop these people.

"Mrs. Ma, if we don't pay back the money, we won't be able to leave today."

"Then you go to my son, the food is his food, not ours!"

"Old lady, do you want to cheat?"

"What do you mean I want to make excuses? You said that my son ate it, and my son ate it. What if someone else ate it?"

"There is your son's red handprint on the IOU, you can't deny it."

"I don't care, you go to my son face to face, we are women, we have no money..."

"If you don't have any money, then move things...Come here, pick something worth moving for me..."

"No..." Mrs. Ma San's yelling stopped abruptly, and a light suddenly appeared on her desperate face.

The steward felt strange, turned his head to look at the hall, and looked against the light. The dazzling light made him subconsciously put his hands on his eyebrows, and at this moment, he... No, they saw the person coming clearly.

The skin is as smooth, pink, and fair as jade porcelain, and the eyes are like ice beauties, looking at them coldly and calmly. The standard willow leaf eyebrows paired with the flaming red lips are really beautiful, but they have their own beauty. Fan Qinggui Gaohua.

"Moving things?" Today's Ma Min'er is wearing the uniform of the princess of the county. The red and gold floor-length gown is dignified and elegant, with flaming red lips, her aura is wide open, and her coldness makes people daunting.

"You... who are you?" The steward, Sui Shou, followed Ma Min'er gently into the main hall, stepped back from the side unconsciously, and rushed to the door when the nobleman didn't answer, as if meeting someone What can escape at any time makes them less panicked.

"Who am I, the master behind you has already planned it, how can you not know?"

"Princess Beijun..." The steward who answered realized that he had slipped his tongue, and backed away in fright, "I... didn't say anything... I didn't say anything..."

……

Everyone was silent for a while. Although they were small butlers who ran errands, they had seen many nobles in Beijing, but they had never seen such an aura of a county princess. Could it be because her husband is the northern wolf and tiger general, she Are you confident?But this is the imperial city, and the relatives and relatives of the imperial family can grab a lot of them with their hands. Isn't this aura just pretending?
"Grandmother, Third Aunt... Min'er came late, which surprised you!" Ma Min'er smiled softly, her facial features softened a lot.

The instant gentle expression brought the stupefied Mrs. Ma back to her senses, "Miss Min...they...they're finally here..."

"I know!"

"Miss Min, what should we do?"

"Auntie!" Ma Min'er said, "I'm here to solve the problem."

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Ma San took Ma Min'er's hand with both hands, holding it tightly with excitement.

The gray-haired Mrs. Ma stood aside, staring blankly at the granddaughter in front of her. For some reason, she remembered the scene when she first entered the palace after marrying a man. When she saw the empress dowager for the first time, the empress dowager's expression changed Like this, dignified, strict, and sacred, people dare not raise their eyes, but... But she is just a child of a bastard, and she has been exiled for so long, when did she become so graceful and magnificent?

"Grandmother, don't worry, I will take care of it." Ma Min'er looked at the yellow-faced grandmother, and it was really emotional to worry about her adult son even though she was old.

"Miss Min..." Mrs. Ma didn't know what to say.

"Grandma, my third aunt and I are going to solve the problem, and you are always at home."

Hearing this, Mrs. Ma felt mixed feelings. It was really... her heart was desolate and emotional, "Ma... trouble you!"

"Grandma, here we go."

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Ma personally sent her granddaughter to the door.

Those stewards and attendants who came to ask for money saw them go out, and some couldn't help asking: "Aren't you going to solve the problem, where is the money?"

Ma Min'er raised her brows: "How can I solve such an important matter with you, I must go to the store to find your boss."

"Looking for a boss?"

The corner of Ma Min'er's mouth curled slightly, "Who is the first one, lead the way!"

Seeing the situation of Princess Beijun, although some stewards felt that something was wrong, they were dazzled by Yin Zi, "My house...go to my restaurant..." A sharp steward rushed to the front to lead the way, "Our restaurant, come to our house first Restaurant..."

"Our house..."

"Our house..."

……

Seven or eight stewards rushed forward, but were stopped by the guards around Ma Min'er. The stewards trembled unconsciously as they looked at the spears and swords, and dared not squeeze forward.

Ma Min'er smiled coldly, "Let's go!"

The crowded and taunting courtyard of Ma's house was suddenly empty. Mrs. Ma stood blankly in front of the empty courtyard, looking at the magnificent procession ahead, thinking of the past, the bustling grandeur seemed to be just yesterday, and she turned to look Gatekeeper article, "It's true that there is one emperor and one courtier, and the replacement is so fast!"

Ma Yihui hid in the corner, and waited for the spectacular team to leave before he reached the door and saw his grandmother standing there desertedly, "Grandma, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Ma turned her head and looked at her eldest grandson, the young man who placed the hope of the entire Ma family: "Why are you back?"

"I'm going to the bookstore to buy books, and I'll come back to see you and grandpa by the way."

"Your grandfather hasn't come down yet."

"Oh."

-

Recently, Liu Zaicheng always feels bored, sitting on a chair, with his butt facing west for a while, and moving for a while, the old Princess Liang scolded with a smile: "You monkey, what are you doing, if you want to go out, you go out , don't look impatient, let grandma look angry."

"Grandmother... No, I'm not impatient." Liu Zaicheng grinned.

"He still said no, look at you..." Old Princess Liang shook her head.

The old Liang Wang was holding a teacup, sipping it unhurriedly, listening to his wife and grandson bickering in his ears, having a lot of fun, enjoying the family happiness, and seeing that his grandson really didn't seem to want to go out, he said with a smile: "How about, Our grandparents play chess?"

When Liu Zaicheng was thinking about whether to leave, there was something important to do at the door.

The old concubine Liang called: "Come in."

"Yes, yes." In the middle of winter, the steward ran in wiping his sweat, "My lord, my lord, it's not good, someone is messing around in our big restaurant."

"Who dares to spoil my property." Liu Zaicheng, who is bored and has nothing to do, really hates that there are not many things in the world. When he heard about it, he stood up happily, "Who is it, who is it, let the young master beat him to death."

The old Liang Wang's first reaction was also like his grandson's, but he knew that with his status, if someone dared to make a fuss, the status must not be low, otherwise who would dare...

With a sharp edge, the old Liang Wang quickly stood up, "Did Xia Erlenzi come to make trouble again?"

"My lord, my lord, is Xia Erlenzi's wife. She smashed the lobby of our house to pieces."

Liu Zaicheng, who was jumping happily, was stunned, "You...you just said...who..."

"My lord, Princess Beijun smashed the lobby of our restaurant to pieces."

The old King Liang and his little grandson looked at each other in blank dismay, and were stunned.

The old Princess Liang asked puzzledly: "This man came to grab the money, and the woman came to grab it again. What's the reason? I want to go to the palace to find the emperor."

Liu Zaicheng grabbed her and said, "Grandmother, Ma Erniang is not that unreasonable person, it must be someone from our restaurant who provoked him."

"what……"

"what……"

The old Liang Wang and his wife looked at the little overlord's grandson together, and they actually said such...so...shocking words from his mouth, the devil in the world, it's going to rain black?
