Chapter 413 How can this be reformed?
Liu Bian went in anyway.
Because he was recognized.
Zhen Yan, who was in her early twenties, had stayed in Luoyang for a while, and met Liu Bian with the help of her ancestors. After repeated confirmation, she still came up to see Liu Bian.
Liu Bian and the Zhen family entered the Qiao Mansion together.
As soon as I entered the house, I saw that the side room in my hand was already full, and all kinds of gifts filled the yard.
"Please please please."
I don’t know who was registering the gifts at the door. He was sweating profusely and kept waving his hands. No matter who the visitor was, he was just registering his name and checking the gifts.
The middle-aged man looked unusually stern and said, "Second Young Master Huangfu has come forward in person, so what can we do? Let's spend our birthdays in peace. We will discuss other matters tomorrow."
Liu Bian listened quietly, holding a copy of the gift list in his hand. A rough calculation showed that the number was close to 700 million, which was equivalent to the annual tax revenue of the Han Dynasty.
……
The girl has bright eyes and white teeth, and skin like snow. Although she is young, she is both pure and charming, making her a beautiful woman at first glance.
Zhen Yan's whole body was cold, even Zhen Mi and her brother behind him immediately knelt on the ground, trembling.
Zhen Yan's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he said, "Hui Hui..."
"Hit me!" Before Zhen Yan could say anything, the steward was already furious. He waved his hand and ordered the servant behind him to step forward.
"Call me Young Master." Huangfu Jian Chang reminded him in his ear.
Zhen Yan was not nervous and said: "I have seen the jade pendant on your majesty's waist once. It is the only one in the world, so I dare to confirm it."
Zhen Mi was nervous, but she didn't dare to disturb her second brother.
When he took Zhen Mi out of Changshan County this time, he was actually preparing to go south. Mrs. Zhen is ready to become an official, but where she wants to become an official requires careful selection and screening.
Zhen Yan's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately fell to the ground and said: "Your Majesty...Young Master has misunderstood. My ancestors are only officials in the imperial court and have nothing to do with the Yuan family. Please tell me!"
With that said, he came to Liu Bian, stretched out his hand to help him up and whispered: "Your Majesty, I got it."
More than a dozen servants immediately swarmed forward, holding big sticks and hitting Dian Wei.
"It's not that easy to leave!" The manager had already had enough of Liu Bian's neglect. He was so angry that he was unwilling to give up.
Zhen Mi looked at Zhen Yan and said softly: "Second brother, is the matter serious?"
A middle-aged man who looked like the steward of Qiao Mansion shouted to Liu Bian, Zhen Yan and others.
The middle-aged man put his hands behind his back, his eyes like eagles, and said calmly: "I don't know him, but to be able to make Master Zhen kneel down and be supported by Second Master Huangfu is nothing more than those dignitaries from Luoyang City."
Liu Bian was walking in the courtyard, with crowds of people and noises coming and going, making it a lively scene.
Hearing Liu Bian's footsteps, Zhen Yan didn't care about anything else. She quietly wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, crawled over quickly, and followed closely.
Dian Wei used his backhand to hold the middle-aged man and almost lifted him up.
The middle-aged man was in pain, his face was red, and he said urgently: "Stop! Stop! Do you know where this is!?"
Zhen Yan felt like a stone had fallen from her heart and had difficulty breathing. She said, "Go back. Let's think about the intention behind your Majesty's words."
Zhen Yan crouched on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Young Master's words are taboo for a villain."
Liu Bian ignored him at all and walked straight to the atrium, saying, "You are pretty good if you can recognize me."
Suddenly, Huangfu Jianchang appeared out of nowhere, with a middle-aged man beside him.
"Hey, didn't you hear? Get down!"
Zhen Yan quickly bowed and said: "Back to... Young Master, my father died of illness and my brothers and sisters are still young. I respect my father's instructions and dare not leave without permission."
Huangfu Jianchang immediately raised his hand to the middle-aged man and said, "Thank you very much, uncle."
His younger brothers and sisters also lowered their heads and dared not breathe.
Liu Bian didn't care about this and walked straight into the atrium. He saw that the three tables were neatly arranged and no one was seated yet.
Liu Bian couldn't help but laugh, raised his head and glanced at the young Zhen Mi, and said, "Do you still have contact with the Zhen family? I heard that Yuan Shao is looking for a good match for his favorite son. This time you Is coming to Julu a way to go to Jiangdong? "
As he spoke, two men and one woman aged thirteen or fourteen behind him bowed, as if to prove Zhen Yan's words,
Behind him were a pair of boys and girls. The boy had bright eyebrows and a calm demeanor. He showed that he had studied a lot and had an excellent tutor.
61.223.141.203
Liu Bian glanced at him and said calmly: "I remember, didn't you promote filial piety and integrity? Why didn't you become an official?"
"what……"
Zhen Mi's pretty face turned a little pale, she bit her lip and said, "Second brother, what should I do?"
Liu Bian nodded slightly and then stood up.
Dian Wei waved his hand and threw the middle-aged man out.
Zhen Yan's face was as cold as iron, and her brows were knitted into the Chinese character "Chuan". She glanced at her and said, "Your Majesty will definitely not come here by accident. Perhaps, you met me on purpose."
Zhen Yangong saw Liu Bian off, not daring to stay any longer. She got into the carriage with her younger brothers and sisters and left in a hurry.
Liu Bian held the gift list in his hand and heard Huangfu Jianchang's words in his ears.
"Your Majesty, I have inquired carefully. The Qiao family owns almost all the shops in Liren County, so it is also called 'Qiao Yicheng'."
Dian Wei took the lead and stood in front of the steward. He picked up a bench and stared with a fierce look on his face.
"It's hard to calculate the Qiao family's land, but most of the farmland in Lieren County and nearby areas belongs to the Qiao family."
"Misunderstanding!"
Zhen Yan stood beside Liu Bian and remained silent.
After Liu Bian and his party left the atrium, the steward came to the middle-aged man and said angrily and doubtfully: "Master Wu, who is that person?"
"Yes." Zhen Yan sat cautiously next to Liu Bian, remaining respectful and restrained.
Zhen has been quiet for a while since his father's death, especially after Yuan was executed, he has been shutting himself up and rarely socializing.
The steward was startled and said, "Then do you want to make some preparations?"
The steward who was thrown out by Dian Wei came to the atrium with a livid face. Behind him were a dozen servants holding big sticks.
Huangfu Jianchang stopped in front of Dian Wei and said with a smile: "It's all a misunderstanding. Let's leave now. We'll leave now."
Liu Bian was noncommittal about this excuse. He looked around and said, "It's not easy for you to still recognize me after not seeing me for so many years."
"In addition, Weichen heard that the Qiao family is related to Ying Shijun by marriage and has moved around frequently in recent years. Most of the Qiao family's children are serving as officials in Jizhou and have not taken the entrance examination."
Liu Bian didn't care about the shouting outside. He sat down on the main seat, nodded towards Zhen Yan and said, "Sit down."
"I don't dare, a villain." Zhen Yan said. He clearly felt that Liu Bian was a little careless, as if he was thinking about something, so he followed Liu Bian step by step according to his uneasiness.
"Hey, you guys, right, you guys, sit there, sit outside, you can't go in inside!"
The Zhen family has some reputation in Changshan Kingdom, and with the shadow of their ancestors, they are qualified to come and celebrate Mrs. Qiao's birthday, but if she wants to sit inside, his junior level is still far from enough.
Liu Bian sat still, smiled and said to Zhen Yan: "Okay, I just asked casually, it's not important, you are busy with your work, come and see me in Luoyang when you have time."
The steward stared at Liu Bian coldly, then glanced at Zhen Yan and others, and shouted: "I don't care who you are, if you dare to act recklessly in Qiao Mansion, even gods can't save you!"
I never thought that when I went out for the first time in nearly ten years, I would meet the current Emperor!
Zhen Yan frowned in pain, but he didn't care. The fear in his heart had reached the extreme.
On the other side, Liu Bian was also riding out of Liren County.
The middle-aged man in charge was directing the servants to carry the gifts. When he saw Liu Bian and others swaggering into the atrium, he rushed over in a rage, shouting and trying to pull Liu Bian away.
Liu Bian ignored him, looked at Zhen Yan and said, "I heard that Zhen is a disciple and former official of Yuan?"
The steward obviously knew something and nodded in agreement.
Zhen Yan immediately said: "Yes, Young Master."
"How can we change this..."
Liu Bian looked up at the city gate not far away and couldn't help but sigh.
The Qiao family owns a city in Liren County. How to change this? Is it possible to kill all the people and snatch them back?
