Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 348 One Hundred and Forty Seven Life and Death

   Now is the perfect time.

   The death of Xu Ying and the shame brought by Zhang Linghui before, all need to be paid for with blood.

   Shao Wenxun looked at Xu Rui and Xu Yonghong thoughtfully, and finally said the most crucial point: "Are you sure we can take the Song family? We put all our hopes on you."

   He spoke earnestly, and Xu Yonghong narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled: "Don't worry, it's a matter of life, we won't mess around."

  With these words, Shao Wenxun didn't have much to say, nodded and stood up reservedly: "Okay, that's fine, then I'll wait and see."

As soon as he left, Xu Rui leaned back, supported his still vaguely drowsy head and looked at his father, frowning slightly: "Father, it's better to find Lai Weiqi as soon as possible, after all It's a hazard."

  Xu Yonghong gave a light hum, signaling his son to rest assured, and when he looked back and saw the blazing sun outside the window, he said coldly, "It's time to start, I don't have much time, and I have to rush back to Yunnan."

   The reason why he simply and neatly asked himself to be demoted was because Xu Yonghong had the confidence.

The indigenous people in Yunnan have been in trouble for too long. Since the time of Taizu, they have often rebelled. When the emperor was deposed before, it was calm for a while, but when he succeeded to the throne today, those rebels took the opportunity to make a comeback. He couldn't go away again, and even dared to proclaim himself king, it was a big taboo for the court, and it made his face very difficult today.

   The abolition of the emperor is very taboo today. The rebellion that can be suppressed by the abolition of the emperor has intensified when he came here. Why doesn't this make him angry?

  But several generals were dispatched before and after, but they failed to completely quell the matter, so Xu Yonghong was in command.

   After all these years of management and hard work, he has now achieved a little success. As long as the capital is stable, he can still get the title of Duke Guo back with the power of Yunnan's suppression this time.

   And it also solved a big problem for him - he was already a duke of the country before, with high authority, and he was a great official in the frontier.

Will    be suspected of having meritorious deeds?

   Now this problem has been solved--because of being so troubled by the Su family and the Song family, the current Xu family can be regarded as a big blow to outsiders.

   Even if it is awarded later, it will not attract too much attention.

After planning, Xu Yonghong calmed down a lot, took a deep look at his son and said: "And you, your daughter-in-law is like that, everyone outside knows that she has a bad reputation, although she is dead, you are still There's no need to mourner for her. While we're still in the capital, let's decide who you want to fill in the house, and wait until next year to go through the door, so that everything is complete, and no one can tell you what's wrong with you."

   Anyway, someone has to take care of this backyard. Mrs. Xu Er is always an elder, and she is separated from the family.

   Speaking of candidates, Xu Yonghong raised his eyes and glanced at his son: "Do you have anyone you like?"

He only has two sons, both of whom he loves in his heart. One of them is dead, and the rest is more important. Even if it is to fill in the house, the first priority is to make his son like him. Just like Zhang Linghui from the past the same.

   Xu Rui was silent for a while.

   Then he suddenly laughed and looked at Xu Yonghong with glittering eyes: "Of course, the candidates for filling the house should be suitable for my father and mother, but there is one person. I want to tell my father and stay for me first."

Um? Xu Yonghong raised his eyebrows.

   Xu Rui spit out two words of course: "Su invite."

   Zhizi Mo Ruofu, Xu Yonghong knew why as soon as the name came out.

   Zhang Linghui was thinking of plotting against Su Ying and sending Su Ying to His Royal Highness King Zhuang. Who would have thought that Su Ying would be plotted against it in return, and even lost her own sister.

   On the contrary, this incident also ruined Xu Rui's reputation.

   Xu Rui always has to make up for it.

   If this thing is successful, the Su family must also end in complete ruin. It is of no use to King Zhuang. Without that layer of golden light, His Royal Highness King Zhuang would not care about this kind of cat and dog.

   Besides, King Zhuang now has another concubine of the Tian family.

   It is not impossible to let his son vent his anger, Xu Yonghong raised his chin and agreed.

   Back to Mrs. Xu in the evening, Xu Yonghong mentioned this matter to Mrs. Xu with a smile, and asked Mrs. Xu to choose a good person.

   Mrs. Xu was watching the homework of her two grandsons under the lamp. When she heard about this, she took it to heart. After a while, she suddenly asked Xu Yonghong, "Didn't you mean Xu Lao's grand-nephew before?"

   The Xu family has not separated. Although she is a grand-niece, she is taught as a granddaughter. It is enough for Xu Rui to fill in the house regardless of identity or appearance.

Xu Yonghong squinted his eyes: "Look at it again, A Rui can't be wronged. If this happens, let alone Xu Lao's grand-nephew, even if it is Xu Lao's own granddaughter, we are not unworthy. "

   The tone is content.

Mrs. Xu also laughed: "The more you talk, the farther you go." But she felt relieved. She stretched out her hand and pressed her sore neck, handing over her grandson's homework to Xu Yonghong for him to see, and jokingly said, "That's right. Although I have never seen that girl from the Su family, I know from her description that she has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. How can such an ambitious girl be willing to be subservient to others? A Rui must have such a prodigal spirit What are you doing? If he really can't take that breath as I said, he'll just stuff her into our camp, so that he won't be more angry?"

  What the women who accompanied the army did, it was self-evident, Xu Yonghong gave her a light look: "Don't make things too big, the Su family still has some old feelings with the sage, it's okay to kill them, it's humiliating like this, too much will be turned against."

   Mrs. Xu didn't say anything.

As soon as the Dragon Boat Festival was over, a major event happened in the capital—there was a imperial history book impeaching the governor of Fujian and the governor of Guangdong for their ineffectiveness in resisting the Japanese, so that many people around were killed and injured, and the losses were heavy, and local officials even concealed layers of reports and covered up each other. , which caused public grievances to boil over.

   The censor's words were fierce and plausible, and the ministers heard the news for a while, and the southeastern protest against Japanese became a hot topic in Beijing.

   It is also because of this commotion that everyone learned that Japanese pirates have been rampant to such an extent that everyone changes their color when they mention Japanese pirates.

   On this basis, the voices of dealing with the group of people who were not able to resist the Japanese were also clamoring.

   When something goes wrong, of course, we must find ways to solve it, but at the same time, we must also severely punish those silverfish who are ineffective and cover up, so that the innocent people who died in vain can find comfort.
