Chapter 332: The Duke of Fujian
"Brother Wei, please give me some idea." The panicked crowd on the village wall surrounded Wei Mingliang. They were all small minions, and there was no big evil, so there was no need to fight to the death.
The main reason is that the protagonists who were in power in the past died in Putian City.
"Or, let's surrender. Let's go to build roads together, and the road is not lonely." Wei Mingliang felt that three years were just a blink of an eye. If you go to build bridges and pave roads together, you can whitewash your identity. It's better than being scared all day long and hiding everywhere.
"Brother Wei, it's okay for me to go to build bridges and roads, but there are old people in this family and young people. What should I do?" A young leader was anxious. If I had been away from home for three years, how would I live at home?
"Or you take your family and hide from the back mountain first." Wei Mingliang was upset and said as if he was not a child. He was not a family member and lived with his family and hiding everywhere.
"This, I decided to share the joys and sorrows with everyone." This man's neck shrank, and there was something to do with running away. He didn't have much money at hand and couldn't run far. Everyone went to build the road together, and they had some care for each other.
"Brother Luo, if you don't ask, you have to leave a way out for your family." The other person had some friendship with Wei Mingliang and was also worried about the young and old at home. These days, the middle-aged man is the pillar of the family. Once he leaves home, the young and old will definitely suffer.
Wei Mingliang was also afraid, but he couldn't resist everyone's begging. Finally, Zhan Zhan Weiwei stood up and held the village wall and looked down. As soon as Sun Yu looked up, Wei Mingliang felt his legs trembling violently. He exerted force with both hands, but finally he did not continue to sag.
"That, Duke, Caomin has something to ask." Wei Mingliang thought about it and spoke carefully.
"If you have anything to ask, but it's okay to ask." Sun Yu took the big bowl brought by the evil dog, took two sips of hot water, took out the rice cake from his backpack, and stuffed it into his mouth.
"If we leave the village to serve labor, what should we do?" Wei Mingliang didn't know how the other party would answer, so he wouldn't help support his family.
"It's easy to say, there are two roads, free choices, and you can go to build roads with you. As long as you obey the arrangements, the government will take care of food and drink. If you don't want to go, work at home to support yourself. Of course, there is no major evil for these premises. If you commit a big deal, you have to go to the mine to work for more than ten years." Sun Yu carefully ate the rice cakes, and the food is still in short supply under the control, so there is no waste.
"Brothers, I heard it. The conditions are OK. Let's make a decision." Wei Mingliang breathed a sigh of relief. At least some choices were made, and it was finally a way out.
The small leaders looked around but couldn't make a decision. They were all decent figures in the village, but once they surrendered, they would become prisoners.
"Everyone expressed my opinion. I don't want to take my family to hide in Tibet. If you build roads, just build roads. If the whole family is together, it will take only three years." Wei Mingliang gritted his teeth. This time was not long. If the whole family was together, the conditions were more difficult and he could always get through it.
"Okay, surrender, that's the Duke of Min."
"Hey, damn Li Zhaoyuan, I deserve it, I'll surrender."
......
What everyone is thinking about now is whether to escape or surrender. As for resistance, it is not within the option. Since Sun Yu introduced himself, they have given up the idea of confrontation, and it is not at the same level at all.
"Mr. Grandpa, we are willing to surrender!" Wei Mingliang stood up and threw the long sword under the village wall, which was a statement.
The group of people behind him also followed suit and threw all their weapons under the wall.
Sun Yu waved his hand, and the infantry following followed stepped forward and collected all the weapons under the village wall.
Walk.
The village gate slowly opened, and Wei Mingliang held up his hands and walked out slowly. The captured people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw Wei Mingliang and others coming out, and were glad that they made the right choice and did not go to death.
The Lijia Village on Tianma Mountain and the surrounding large and small villages were all cleared by the officers and soldiers to the open space outside the village wall, and their identities were identified one by one. Only ordinary village residents who farmed can be exempted from punishment. Anyone who knows how to farm will be taken to the city first and handed over to Liu Chang for treatment.
The evil dog personally led his people to confiscate the homes of Li Lingfeng and other large and small village leaders, and took away all the gold, silver and soft materials. As for the fields, houses and family members, they were all handed over to the government for handling.
When Sun Yu and his party appeared outside the city gate, Liu Chang finally let go of his heart. He looked at the captive team that stretched for more than a mile behind Sun Yu. He was overjoyed. Lijiazhai, which gave him a headache, disappeared.
Sun Yu briefly explained, informed Liu Chang of his promise, and set off with the cavalry. Now, if you are on the road, you can reach Quanzhou City tonight.
Looking at the more than a thousand young men in front of him, Liu Chang wished he could whistle to the sky. Under the rule of the loyal and brave army, he was not allowed to collect labor service and could only hire civil servants. However, Sun Yu saved him a lot of money by this move. The road he was responsible for must have made much faster progress and a complete political achievement.
It was not until it was completely dark that Sun Yu and his party arrived at the city of Quanzhou. Although the city gate was closed, Sun Yu personally arrived, and the guard hurriedly ordered the city gate to be opened.
Sun Yu drove his horse directly to Zhenhai Hou Mansion, saying that the plaque on the house should be changed.
"Wow~" Sun Yu arrived at the gate of the Marquis' Mansion and suddenly found that the plaque on the mansion had been replaced. The original Zhenhai Marquis' Mansion had become the Mansion of the Duke of Min. If he was not at home, it must be Qing'er's work.
There were sounds of horse hooves, and the guardian of the mansion saw that it was Sun Yu, so he quickly opened the middle door and asked someone to go to the backyard to notify him.
Sun Yu handed the reins to the evil dog and walked straight back. He couldn't wait. He hadn't seen Qing'er and Xiaohuan for a long time. The evil dog took the reins and told his brothers to go to the stable to tie the horses first, and rest in the front yard of the Duke's Mansion tonight.
The originally dim Duke's Mansion immediately started to decorate the lights and the cook also started to work hard to make some food for Sun Yu's guards.
"Rou'er has met his brother!" Before Sun Yu could enter the backyard, he saw a little girl running out. It was Sun Rou.
Compared to the ragged clothes at that time, the current dressing makes the makeup look pink and jade-like, which makes people love it. When he heard Sun Yu come back, he couldn't wait to see him, but he was not so familiar. When he came to him, he was restrained.
"Does Rou'er like this?" He picked up Sun Rou and walked to the backyard.
After just taking two steps, Xiaohuan arrived. Perhaps he was a little anxious and his hair was a little scattered. Seeing Sun Yu, he felt a little embarrassed and slowed down.
Sun Yu swallowed. The small ring was developing so well now, not small at all. When he ran, he was so nervous.
"Xiao Huan has seen the Duke of the People!" Xiao Huan walked to Sun Yu and stood up to salute.
"Long time no see, our Xiaohuan is getting more and more beautiful." Sun Yu handed Rou'er to his left hand, blocking Xiaohuan's waist with his right hand and walked backwards.
"Sister Xiao Huan, you are so embarrassed. You are such an adult, and you are still scrambling me to hug me." Sun Rou made a face at Xiao Huan. They have become familiar with each other these days.
Xiao Huan was a little shy when he heard this, but he was reluctant to leave Sun Yu's arms. He just lowered his head and said nothing, and no longer had the liveliness of the past.
Qing'er was organizing the living room to provide Sun Yu with food for a while. He must be exhausted along the way. As for Ye Xiaoniang, now
She was busy working in the kitchen. The Duke's Mansion was big, but there were not many servants, so she would have to feel at ease when she did it herself.
"Qing'er has met the master!" Qing'er felt a lot of emotion when she saw Sun Yu walking over. After so many years, she finally lived together seriously.
"Are you still used to living here?" Sun Yu put down Sun Rou and Xiaohuan and stepped forward to support Qing'er's shoulders. Over the years, she must have felt a lot of grievances in Jiangning.
Xiaohuan looked at the situation and gave the maid a wink.
"Be good, let me go to the kitchen to help the old lady?" Xiao Huan knew they had something to say, and his lady's face was tender and she had to find a way to take everyone away.
"I won't go, I'll accompany my brother." Sun Rou refused to listen. Her mother met every day, and her brother only saw him once a day.
"The old lady is preparing something delicious in the kitchen. Don't you go? Then I'll go and have a taste first." Xiao Huan made a gesture and wanted to leave, but Sun Rou quickly followed. After all, she was still a child and was used to suffering before, so how could she withstand the temptation of delicious food?
"I'm used to living, you are a man who fights south and north, and you don't know how to take care of yourself." Qing'er reached out to touch Sun Yu's face, which was rough. I remember when I first left Jiangning, I was a beautiful young man with a white and tender face. This change was too big.
"Or why do you want to take a bath for your husband first, and Qing'er will help you sort it out?" Sun Yu was worried about finding an excuse. He was not in a hurry to eat, and he had not fulfilled his husband's duties for a long time.
"Okay, you can get rid of the fatigue and have more appetite." Qing'er didn't think so much. She had asked the servants to prepare hot water, so she took Sun Yu to Qingmeiyuan after hearing this.
Today, there are five courtyards in the backyard of the Duke of Min, among which there are the chief ladies who come from the future. Ye Xiaoniang brought Ye Rou over and chose the Danmo Courtyard, which is the worst in the west, to live in the front yard. Qing'er asked him to move, but he always refused. Qing'er lived in the Qingmei Courtyard on the east. Not only did it have a better location, but it also fits her name.
Sun Yu was not in the mansion, and the courtyard was vacant, so Qing'er naturally asked the servants to prepare hot water in his courtyard.
After entering Qingmeiyuan, Sun Yu directly picked Qing'er up and walked towards the bedroom. Qing'er was startled and screamed in panic. The maid who was boiling water came out and saw this scene. She was startled. When she looked closely, she found that it was the Duke and hurried back.
"Sister Xiao Huan, why are you still not here?" Sun Rou looked at the table of dishes and was already very hungry. Although she had had supper, the child did not know how to be full.
Xiaohuan had been very confused for a long time, and she didn't have to think about what she was going to do. She wanted to go, but she couldn't see her face.
"Xiao Huan, go and see if Yu'er is too tired. She has to finish eating before going to bed." Ye Xiaoniang knew this and deliberately spoke up to let Xiao Huan escape.
"Maid, let's go and have a look!" Xiao Huanru received a general amnesty and walked towards Qingmeiyuan.
"Sister Xiao Huan, wait for me!" Sun Rou got off the stool, called Xiao Huan, and prepared to follow him.
Xiaohuan, who was looking forward to it, was frozen in an electric shock. What should I do?
"Xiao Rou, come here, I have to check today's homework!" Ye Xiao Niang took out the ruler from somewhere and put it on the table. Sun Rou, who was originally happy, suddenly became depressed.
Originally, she didn't think she could enter a high-ranking family again, and Ye Xiaoniang didn't have high requirements for her. She could be sensible and just be an ordinary person. But in this situation, Sun Yu is young and is already a governor and has great power.
