Chapter 148 This Woman Is Not Cute Anymore (1/2)

"I am willing to serve the Marquis as a dog and horse." Si Changchi said excitedly. He has been working hard for this matter for the past few years, but he has never seen any hope.

In Liaoyuan City, the Xiang family is not so powerful, but at least the city lord Wang Mingyuan basically turns a blind eye to their affairs as long as they are not excessive.

He will not confront Xiang Yijing, the favorite concubine of Liaoyuan Marquis, for the sake of the common people. Feng Tianzong has no family, so the Jin and Xiang families, as the family members of Feng Tianzong's favorite concubine, are almost equivalent to royal relatives.

In addition, Jin Jinyun and Xiang Yijing hold real power in the city, and the officials in the city do not dare to bring their family matters to them.

Si Changchi is really good at taking advantage of the situation. He follows Feng Tianzong in the name of gratitude, and he also knows that Feng Tianzong does not like to deal with mundane affairs and leaves all the affairs in the city to Wang Mingyuan.

If he was sent by Feng Tianzong to do something, he would be Feng Tianzong's confidant who supervised many officials. Not to mention that he would rise to the top and be on par with Wang Mingyuan, he would at least be a middle-level official in the city, and the middle-level officials would not dare to look down on him.

Feng Tianzong saw the other party's little calculation clearly, but he did not expose it. Learn the arts of literature and martial arts, and sell them to the emperor's family.

The other party's intention to surrender to him is so obvious, and from the way he acts, the other party does have some ability.

He can see Feng Tianzong's extraordinaryness in the crowd at a glance, and understand all the big and small affairs in the city and all the people in power.

This ability is not much worse than Wang Mingyuan. The most important thing is that when he was counting the fortune just now, Feng Tianzong also saw the boy's previous things clearly, studied hard, and knew how to adapt.

He is indeed a talented person. If such a person is willing to be his subordinate, Feng Tianzong will certainly not refuse.

However, he did not want to agree directly. If he did it completely as the other party wanted, it would seem that he, the Marquis of Liaoyuan, had no scheming and was completely calculated by the other party.

"You do have some talent. Now our Marquis of Liaoyuan is expanding rapidly and preparing to annex the entire northern border. The government is indeed in urgent need of manpower. If you are willing to join us at this time, I can also give you a chance.

Now that General Zhang Weiyu is leading his army to the battle, there will be news of a triumphant return soon. When the time comes, we will take over the new city and recruit a group of students to follow the officials to govern the newly included city. You can go with them then.

If you are really capable and stand out among this group of students, then I will not be stingy with the official position. You also know that our Liaoyuan City is expanding and there are a large number of vacancies. Now is the best time to get a position. Seize this opportunity well." Feng Tianzong patted Si Changchi on the shoulder and said.

"Thank you for your cultivation, my lord. I will definitely live up to your trust." Si Changchi said excitedly. Although things did not go as he expected, this result also made him very excited.

Although he was just like other ordinary students who had just entered the imperial court, he had already registered in the heart of Liaoyuan Hou Feng Tianzong. What is this called? This is called being in the heart of the emperor.

Even if Feng Tianzong only asked a question when he occasionally remembered, it would be a great benefit to him.

As long as he can work diligently and do things well, the lord will see it. He regarded this as a test from Feng Tianzong.

"Okay, then go back first and wait for the government's conscription notice. I will give you an explanation about your parents' affairs." Feng Tianzong said.

"I obey your orders." Si Changchi bowed respectfully and left the room.

"My husband, you have to believe me. I have never sought any benefit for my family. You know that those people in the city are not my close relatives.

There is no need for me to upset you for these people. Please believe me." Xiang Yijing saw Si Changchi leave the room, and immediately knelt on the ground with a pale face, saying sadly.

After following Feng Tianzong for ten years, she knew her husband's temperament too well. It is taboo to know such things.

Although Feng Tianzong does not like to deal with government affairs, he can also be said to love the people like his own children, especially the people's livelihood is the most important, and he will never allow anyone to oppress the good from a high position.

She knew that those people were finished, and she did not even dare to plead for them. If she did not handle it well, she would fall out of favor today, which she would never allow.

Jin Jinyun's face was also not good. Since those people in the Xiang family were like this, what would her people in the Jin family be like? She didn't think that her Jin family members were better than the Xiang family members.

In fact, based on her understanding of the Jin family, she was certain that the Jin family members had done more than the Xiang family members.

It was just that she was lucky today that the first case she encountered was committed by the Xiang family. Otherwise, it would be her, Jin Jinyun, who was kneeling on the ground at a loss.

At the same time, Jin Jinyun also made up her mind that she must interrogate those family members after returning to find out how many evil things they had done behind her back over the years.

It would be best if this hidden danger could be solved before her husband knew about it.

But what she didn't know was that when Feng Tianzong counted the Xiang family members, how could he leave behind the Jin family members?

These things were all in his mind, but there was no need to say them out for the time being. When he went back to deal with the Xiang family members, he would ask Wang Mingyuan to check it out and report the matter to him, and he would deal with it together. It would save trouble.

Feng Tianzong didn't listen to Xiang Yijing's explanation. Compared with other people's stories, he believed in his own Lian Tian Yi Shu a little more.

After counting with his fingers, Xiang Yijing really didn't know that those clansmen were doing evil things outside under her banner, but she did give these people some convenient conditions.

Most of those Xiang clansmen were descendants of branches that were not valued. Although they could be called from a big family, they really didn't have much money.

After coming to Liaoyuan City, with the help of Xiang Yijing, they experienced a life they had never experienced before.

When they acted more strongly, the officials in the city would give them a step, and they became more and more arrogant.

Gradually, they really felt that they were superior to others, and they became more and more domineering.

This time, not many Xiang clansmen came, because Xiang Yijing asked the family for help at the beginning, wanting some trustworthy people who could do things.

The family sent him here, and the original intention was to get in touch with Liaoyuan Hou and give the family an extra way out.

"Get up. This matter really has little to do with you. I won't blame you too much. After all, we were short of people in Liaoyuan City at the time, and you invited these people to help me.

But these people dared to do whatever they wanted in Liaoyuan City and take human lives lightly. They are so bold. Today I know that if I don't kill a chicken to scare the monkey, someone will definitely do something even more excessive in the future." Feng Tianzong lovingly helped Xiang Yijing, who was kneeling on the ground, up.

"Thank you for your understanding, my husband. Now that this has happened, I can't manage the affairs in the government office. I will go back and explain it. I will serve my husband in the harem in the future." Xiang Yijing said obediently, without saying a word for those clansmen.

Feng Tianzong was still very satisfied with this. When a woman gets married, she is naturally a member of her husband's family. She should take her husband's surname. As the saying goes, a married daughter is like water spilled out. Naturally, she should think about her husband's family wholeheartedly. Her husband is their heaven.

Feng Tianzong felt it was a pity to kill those Xiang family members. After all, the New Year is coming soon, and that is also a tax. No matter how small the mosquito leg is, it is still meat.

Keeping them is also a disaster. Otherwise, just demote them to pariahs, let them do the hardest and most tiring work, contribute to the construction of Liaoyuan City, and do a good job of labor reform.

It happened that the city wall was blown up by the monks of Qianshan Sect when they blew themselves up some time ago, and now there is no time to repair it. It's just right to let these people repair the city wall, and then transfer some Hu slaves from outside the city to work together.

Thinking of this, Feng Tianzong said to Xiang Yijing gently: "After all, you have served me for so many years. Even if you have no merit, you have worked hard. What's more, I robbed you when you were in the capital."

"Husband, don't say that. It's my fault. I didn't restrain those clansmen well, causing them to make big mistakes." Xiang Yijing said in panic.

Feng Tianzong pulled the panicked Xiang Yijing into his arms, hooked her chin with one hand, and said gently: "I said these sincerely. Those guys are lawless and deserve to die.

But they are your clansmen after all. For the sake of your dedicated service to me for so many years, I can not kill them, but the death penalty can be exempted, but the living crime cannot be escaped.

I plan to demote them to pariahs, send them to repair the city wall, and do a good job of labor reform."

Since they are not going to kill these Xiang clansmen, they naturally have to do a favor here with the concubine. Women still need to be coaxed. The same thing, if you change the way you say it, can make the concubine grateful and serve you wholeheartedly in the future. Why not do it? This is called killing two birds with one stone.

"Thank you, my husband, for your generosity. I am grateful. My husband is willing to take care of my thoughts. I... I am already yours." Xiang Yijing was so excited that tears came out, and she hugged her husband's neck and said.

Her husband was willing to take care of her feelings, which means that she still has a very high status in her husband's heart.

Feng Tianzong patted his concubine's plump buttocks with satisfaction: "Okay, don't cry, the sisters are still watching, and you are not ashamed."

"What's there to be ashamed of? We have served my husband together for countless times. What's this matter?" Xiang Yijing said without any shyness.

This woman is not as cute as before.

Feng Tianzong actually still likes the kind of girl who blushes easily. He misses the Xiang Yijing who was still thinking about being a wife instead of a concubine when she was robbed.

It's just that after doing so many embarrassing things, the girls have become resistant to it and rarely show that shy expression.

"Time passes like water, and I am the only one who is immortal. It's really... great. It seems that we need to select a new batch of girls to enter the palace as soon as possible.

It just so happens that after this expedition to the Northern Frontier, after taking over the entire Northern Frontier, with the population base of the Northern Frontier, there must be a lot of beautiful girls." Feng Tianzong thought happily.

Now his vision has become more discerning. In the past ten years, the entire Liaoyuan City has a population of 100,000, and every year the most beautiful girl is selected to be sent to the palace.

Ordinary beautiful girls really can't catch his eye. They must be extremely beautiful and have outstanding talents, such as the light-bodied Yulian girl who can dance on the palm.

Before, he also had the idea of ​​finding a group of qualified beautiful women to teach them to practice so that they can accompany him for a long time.

Now this idea has long been thrown out of the window. If the woman around him has cultivation, wouldn't she be able to sense the speed of his cultivation improvement?

And even if the woman has cultivation, she can't accompany him forever. The longer they get along, the deeper their feelings are. When they finally part with each other, he will feel more uncomfortable.

It's better to be an ordinary woman. There are only a dozen years of youth. The beauties around him keep changing. It's actually pretty good to be accompanied by a woman who only cares about the body but not the heart.

"Okay, the New Year is coming soon, be happy. Today, your husband brought you out to relax. Let's go shopping.

Look at the current Liaoyuan City. What is it like now? Is it still my Liaoyuan City?" Feng Tianzong said with a smile.

Jin Jinyun followed Feng Tianzong in fear, for fear of encountering the crimes committed by the Jin family. At this time, she envied Xiang Yijing a little. The sooner she died, the sooner she would be reborn! The matter was resolved, and now at least she didn't have to worry.

She was not worried that Feng Tianzong would execute those clansmen. After all, they were just some clansmen, not her father. She didn't have much affection for her father, let alone the clansmen who were not close to her.

What she was worried about was whether she would be hated by her husband. After all, for a woman, her husband is her heaven.

The group walked along the main road in the city. Although they had just experienced a war and many people died in the city, it did not affect the atmosphere of the New Year in the city at all.

There are patrolling yamen runners in the city. If someone quarrels occasionally, they will be quickly resolved by the yamen runners who come.

It is indeed a prosperous scene, which shows that his governance of Liaoyuan City in the past ten years is still very effective.

Although there are still some big rats in the city, the flaws do not outweigh the merits. Feng Tianzong plans to clean up a batch from time to time in the future. If one is caught, the whole family will be demoted to pariahs.

The closer to the prosperous area, the more people there are on the street. Feng Tianzong is afraid that his woman will be secretly taken advantage of by others, so he directly uses magic power to separate them.

Ordinary mortals can't get close to them at all.

"Husband, look there, that little girl is so beautiful!" Xiang Yijing suddenly pointed to the direction of the second floor of the side house and whispered to Feng Tianzong.

Feng Tianzong turned his head and saw a little girl with outstanding temperament, wearing a light pink robe, elegant temperament, looking at the crowd below on the second floor next to her.
