Blood from Daming

Chapter 129 Return to Beijing
Xue Yun got up early in the morning and walked around Xiao Xue Zhuang with Wu Hui. Xue Yun hadn't looked at the whole Xiao Xue Zhuang carefully so far. The whole Xiao Xue Zhuang was empty except for Wu Hui's big courtyard.

Xue Yun: "Hui'er, it's better to sprinkle some grass seeds in the spring for such a large open space. The female soldiers will not be easily injured in training in the future. After the expansion of Xuezhuang is completed, we will slowly add some buildings and landscapes in Xiaoxuezhuang. What kind of fun."

Wu Hui: "Then let's plant some grass. Now the house is big enough. I don't need any mountains or water to avoid wasting money."

Xue Yun: "Hui Er, your Plum Blossom Magical Art has improved very quickly. It seems that you are born to be a good material for martial arts."

Wu Hui: "Xue Lang, I insist on practicing the Plum Blossom Magic Kungfu every night."

Xue Yun: "Hui'er take your time, don't work too hard, um, let's see how the female soldiers' training is going." Xue Yun and Wu Hui went back to the yard to have breakfast.

Xue Yun and Wu Hui were having breakfast in their own inner hall. The servant girl came in and reported that Fourth Uncle Xue and the others had arrived at the gate of Xiaoxuezhuang. Xue Yun and Wu Hui hurried out of the courtyard after breakfast. behind the gate.

Wu Hui saw that the female soldiers under his command opened the door. Xue Si, Xue Shishi, Xue Keji, Wang Xiucai, Lu Yaojin, Wang Erwa, Xue Siyuan, Xue Dahan, and Old Man Lu were all waiting in front of the door. Xue Yun asked the female soldiers to open the door. People put them in Xiaoxue Zhuang.

Xue Si and the others came together mainly to move money, Xue Yun asked them to wait to see the training of the female soldiers. More than 30 maids and servants held long spears, and they performed simple assassinations, advanced and retreated for cover, and marched in a queue.

Next, the female soldiers performed an archery performance. Each of them shot three arrows to determine the winner. The target was placed at the position of seventy paces. The female soldiers took turns to shoot arrows. More than 30 of the more than [-] women had arrows. On the target, there are seven people who hit the target with three arrows, and five of them hit the red heart of the target.

Wu Hui stepped forward to speak according to Xue Yun's intention: "Today is a female soldier's test. Everyone performed very well. I decided to give each female soldier who participated in the training a silk encouragement." excited.

Wu Hui went on to say: "The seven female soldiers who hit the target with three arrows just now and the three female soldiers who were recognized by everyone as outstanding in spear skills will each be rewarded with one tael of silver. Among them, the best scorer will be rewarded with ten taels of silver. Five taels of silver are rewarded."

The girls below were happy and excited when they heard this, and they all got the silk for clothing, but they were envious and jealous when they saw others behave so well that they were rewarded with silver, especially those with parents and relatives in Zhuangzi were more eager for silver. Everyone secretly made up their minds to train hard and strive to get more rewards for themselves next time.

Xue Yun took another look at the middle-aged servant woman who hit the bull's-eye with three arrows. At this time, Wu Hui had disbanded the female soldiers, and the female soldiers became maidservants again. What should the servants do or do?

Xue Yun ordered Wang Erwa to move out the 10 taels of silver that was given to Xue Si. Xue Si, Xue Shishi, Xue Keji, and Wang Xiucai were suddenly dumbfounded. inside.

Xue Yun: "These were all picked up from the fire scene in the house of the thieves Zhang Wangcai in Zhangjia Village, Dezhou."

Xue Si: "Our workshop in Xuezhuang can be used after remelting, but the gold extraction is more troublesome."

Xue Si arranged for Xue Keji to take Zhuang Ding and Lu Laohan who were transporting them all the way to escort the batch of silver ingots to the secret room of the workshop for safekeeping. Xue Yun also took out most of the belongings obtained from Linjiashibao in Cangzhou and Majiaji Majiabao in Dongchang. It is estimated that there will be an income of [-] to [-] silver, and Xue Yun will include the money in Xuezhuang's investment.

When it was almost noon, Mao Laoyao, the little steward of the Xue Mansion in the capital, came, and Mao Laoyao was overjoyed when he saw Xue Yun: "Young Master, the old ancestor guessed that you were in Xuezhuang, and the old ancestor asked the young master to ask the young master to go back to discuss something. "

Xue Yun: "Youngest, my grandfather has something to discuss with me."

Youngest Mao: "There are a lot of things. The mansion has sent people to Xue Zhuang to look for you several times. The main reason is that there are officials from the imperial court who used officers and soldiers for private use to commit treason. Someone from the factory said that the factory owner wants to see you."

After the youngest Mao finished speaking, he lowered his voice again: "Master, Xue Bin and Xue Bo Nian beat Mistress Mei Xiang and Sister Yingchun in their thirties. I heard that Mistress Mei Xiang's fetal gas was disturbed, and Xiaoxue's mansion is in chaos."

Xue Yun was really angry and asked hastily: "How did grandpa handle it?"

The youngest Mao: "The old ancestor locked him up, but Xue Bin and Xue Bo ran away secretly the day before yesterday."

It took Xue Yun a long time to hold back his breath, and then he dealt with Xue Zhuang's affairs first: "Fourth Uncle, I'm going back to the city tomorrow, the money in the village should be available for a while, I'll leave you five hundred draft horses to set up transportation Caravan, [-] sticks of fire will be left in Xuezhuang, let Lu Yaojin and the others take those Zhuang Ding, shopkeeper Chen from Hangzhou will come to the south to bring more Zhuang Ding to escort, if there is anything else, Fourth Uncle himself or send someone to come Xiaoxue's mansion is looking for me."

Xue Si: "Master, don't you plan to come back to Xuezhuang?"

Xue Yun: "There are a lot of things to do in the city this time, and there are a lot of troubles. There may be a war in Datong in the spring. I won't stay in the capital for too long. I plan to take Wu Hui to Xiaoxue's residence for a while."

Xue Si: "Wu Hui's young master, you can talk about it. If it doesn't make sense, I, Xue Si, will definitely find a way to send the mistress to the young master." Xue Yun then exchanged some opinions with Xue Shishi, Xue Keji, and Wang Xiucai before returning Xiao Xuezhuang is gone.

Xue Yun returned to Xiao Xuezhuang and looked at the maids and servants in the village who were gesturing with silk on their bodies, all of them were beaming, but Xue Yun was in a depressed mood and when he saw Wu Hui, he said, "Hui'er, I'm going to go tomorrow. Back to the capital, you can go back with me."

Wu Hui: "Why did Xue Lang leave Xuezhuang and go back to the city so soon?" Xue Yun could only briefly mention the impeachment of himself by the court officials, and his two bastard brothers Xue Bin and Xue Bo beat Mei Xiang And Yingchun, now Mei Xiang's fetal gas may not be safe, but she just concealed the Yu family's marriage and didn't say anything.

When Wu Hui heard that her husband was impeached and that her sister Mei Xiang was about to miscarry, she was so anxious that she burst into tears: "Mr. Sister Meixiang is so pitiful, let's go and see her quickly."

Xue Yun: "Hui'er, no matter how urgent you are, don't be in a hurry. Today is one night. Let's make arrangements for Xiao Xuezhuang before leaving. Well, today, you know the middle-aged woman who hit three red hearts in a row with archery."

Wu Hui: "You are talking about Mrs. Feng, right? Her natal family is a hereditary soldier in Liaodong, so she has practiced kung fu with swords, guns, swords and sticks since she was a child."

Xue Yun: "Sister-in-law Feng came to Xue Zhuang from several people."

Wu Hui: "I voluntarily sold myself into Xuezhuang with my father-in-law and a couple of children. Is there something wrong with Xue Lang?"

Xue Yun: "Hui'er, you misunderstood. I just think she is good at martial arts among these women. If there is a chance, we can arrange her to take charge of the affairs first, and use her expertise to lead those female soldiers."

Xue Yun and Wu Hui got up very early the next day. They hurriedly ate breakfast and came to the gate of Xiao Xuezhuang. Wu Hui brought a personal maid, and the four maids prepared a lot of gifts.Wang Erwa and fifty soldiers had already put the goods designated by Xue Yun on the horses. As soon as Xue Yun arrived at the long horse team, he started to walk towards the gate of Xuezhuang.

Xue Si, Xue Shishi, Xue Keji, Wang Xiucai, Xue Siyuan, Xue Dahan, and Old Man Lu were all waiting in front of the gate of Xuezhuang. Lu Yaojin led fifty Datong elites to escort Ma Dashan to stand outside Xuezhuang. Beside the main road, after Xue Yun simply said goodbye to Xue Si and the others, he brought 10 taels of silver and precious gold and silver treasures looted from Linjiashibao in Cangzhou and Majiaji Majiabao in Dongchang. He ordered his officers and soldiers to set off for Guangqumen in the outer city of the capital.

When Xue Yun arrived at Guangqumen University, the gate had not yet opened, and the people who wanted to enter the city had already lined up for almost half a mile.Xue Yun saw that there was a small path in the middle of the road leading to the city gate of Guangqumen, and Xue Yun was anxious to go home quickly, so he crossed the path and ran towards the city gate of Qumen.

The more Xue Yun walked inside, the higher the status of the people waiting on both sides, but these people looked at Xue Yun and they were hundreds of brightly armored and murderous Ming army officers and soldiers. Dare to say it.When Xue Yun arrived at the gate of Guangqumen, someone attacked Xue Yun and his hundred subordinates.

An official in a seventh-rank official uniform standing beside the sedan chair said, "You guys, this is an important place in the capital of the imperial court. There is room for you warriors to gallop on your horses and get off your horses quickly."

Xue Yun heard someone yelling, so he looked at the official sedan chairs closest to the city gate. Xue Yun looked at the seventh-rank official and still didn't care about the contempt for no one in his words: "My lord, I am There is an important matter that needs to go to the palace to meet the saint, and I am a little anxious, please forgive me." Xue Yun jumped into the line and knew that he was wrong, so he made a fuss.

The officials in the seventh-rank official uniform were even angrier when they heard that, you, a little doll whose yellow hair has not faded, are actually here to face the saint, besides, Emperor Tianqi would not easily meet people.

The official was determined to expose Xue Yun's lies: "You little military officer dared to say that you were going to face the saint. Today you fall into the hands of me, the supervisory censor, and I will sue you for lying and deceiving the emperor."
