Chapter 474: Do I need an imperial edict to buy a few servants?



From now on, he doesn’t want to eat anything cooked in this kitchen!

But there was nothing to do next. Chu Youyang held the title deed. This yard was no longer his. Although he was allowed to recuperate here, Jiang Bai had just lay down anxiously when someone came into his room.

The eldest son, the second son, the third son, the youngest daughter...

All the children of the Jiang family are here...

"Dad, what's going on? Why did King Jin's people come to inform me and tell me to move out?"

"Yes, isn't this our home? Prince Jin is really going too far. What's wrong with being a royal relative? Can he bully the common people like this?"

"We have to file a complaint with the emperor! I don't believe that there can be such lawless things under the emperor's feet!"

Jiang Bai felt a headache after hearing this, and he yelled, "Get out!"

This matter is Mrs. Jiang's fault, but it is also his own fault.

If he had gone to the government to reissue the real estate deed earlier, this wouldn't have happened. But he always felt that Mrs. Jiang had hidden these things, and always wanted her to get them out herself, so he never went to reissue them.

But Jiang Bai refused to admit that it was his fault. He had lived for half his life, when had he missed it? After the children quarreled, Jiang Bai figured out one thing. He hurriedly called his eldest son Jiang Gaozhe and said, "Go to the government office and get the indentures of the servants and concubines reissued!"

Jiang Gaozhe was completely puzzled, but Jiang Bai's attitude did not allow for any discussion, so he had no choice but to obey.

But Jiang Gaozhe's trip was still delayed.

Because before he even walked out the door, he heard that Jiang Ruijin was missing.

I clearly saw her in Jiang Bai's room just now, but who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, no one could find her.

The Jiang family searched for him for a long time.

How could they possibly find it?

Jiang Ruijin had already boarded the carriage and left the city.

This is also thanks to Jiang Gaoyun.

He sold the Jiang family house to Chu Youyang, and knew that he was coming to take over the house today, so he wanted to see the excitement. As a result, he almost laughed his teeth off.

When the Jiang family members went to Jiang Bai's room, they didn't say everything. Some people even thought that the Jiang family was going to fall and whether this was a signal sent by the royal family.

With the attitude of watching the fun and not minding the trouble, Jiang Gaoyun decided to add more fuel to the Jiang family's fire.

So he lay on the top of Jiang Ruijin's wall and said sarcastically, "No matter how proud you are, you will soon be no match for me. You should know that chopping off a head is not fun. Who said that a scar the size of a bowl will remain after a head is chopped off? Let me tell you, after a head is chopped off, the eyeballs can still move and you will even scream in pain!"

Jiang Rujin was a smart little girl. She was discussing the future of the Jiang family with her maid. When she heard these words, her heart trembled.

They all knew that Jiang Bai had been demoted, and after what happened today, she was already unsure. After hearing what Jiang Gaoyun said, she had even more thoughts in her mind.

All signs are not good at the moment. It seems that Jiang Bai has no hope of making a comeback, and she may be implicated. She can't just sit there and wait for death.

So Jiang Rujin took advantage of the chaos and ran away with her valuables, not even taking her mother with her. She was worried that her mother would not want to leave, and she was also worried that her mother would tell Jiang Bai about it, and then she would not be able to leave.

She left quickly and cleanly, but it took the Jiang family a long time to find her. When Jiang Gaozhe remembered that he had something to do, it was already dark.

It can’t be done today. Let’s talk about it tomorrow.

He didn't expect that such a delay would lead to something bad.

The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, Chu Youyang came again.

Everyone was confused and thought he was here to collect the house again, but they didn't expect him to look at everyone, take out a stack of papers, and chuckled, "Everyone whose name I read, please stand up."

Jiang Gaoyun took the lead and stood up, "Your Highness Prince Jin, may I ask what you are doing? Although my father is no longer the prime minister, he is still an official of the court. How can I allow you to make trouble in my house like this?"

"Yes, yes! If the emperor has an order, you can take out the order!"

"What is this for? It makes people panic!"

Everyone agreed.

Chu Youyang remained calm and just smiled, "I didn't do anything. The emperor doesn't need to issue an order for this. Do you think I need the emperor to issue an order to buy a house and some servants? Listen carefully! Jiang Fu! Oh no no no, this one is dead, the next one..."

The next one is Jiang Bai’s concubine.

The next few are all of them, as well as the housekeeper and maids in the mansion.

The Jiang family is in chaos.

Before he could finish, Jiang Bai had already asked his servants to carry him over, and asked anxiously, "What's going on? What's going on?!"

Chu Youyang looked puzzled, "I should be the one asking you, you are selling houses and people, don't you want to stay in Wu Country anymore, and plan to go somewhere else?"

Jiang Bai was already feeling guilty, and after hearing this, he felt even more insecure. He said hurriedly, "No! How could it be possible? Although I am not satisfied with my current position, as long as I am still alive, there is always a chance that I will be favored by the emperor again. How could I possibly want to leave!"

"That's good, that's good!" Chu Youyang looked relieved, "I was just saying that when I entered the palace yesterday, my brother and sister-in-law were still talking about you. If you leave, it would be a pity!"

Jiang Bai's eyes lit up instantly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern!"

“No thanks!” Chu Youyang waved his hand and then waved the pile of papers, “Then I’ll take everyone away!”

As he said this, he asked someone to take those concubines and old women away.

Jiang Bai's face turned pale. "Your Highness Prince Jin, it's a misunderstanding! It's a misunderstanding! These are all from my house..."

"It's in my house!" Chu Youyang turned over the pile of papers and saw two big words written on the top - Personal Indenture.

Jiang Bai's face turned green...

Jiang Gaozhe's face turned pale...

If Jiang Gaozhe had known that delaying for one night would lead to such a big incident, he would definitely not have helped to find Jiang Ruijin.

But it was too late to make amends. Chu Youyang took the indentures of those people and took them away as it was natural.

Jiang Bai had no choice but to drag his injured leg to meet the emperor.

Yesterday, Chu Youyang went to the palace to report on his battle situation. Chu Younan and Su Bei were cracking melon seeds and listening there. As they were talking, Su Bei suddenly said that the corner of the table was unstable, and asked Zhizi to take the pile of paper inside to pad the table.

When Chu Youyang saw the pile of paper used as padding for the table, his eyes widened as big as cow eyes, "Third sister-in-law, you are using the indenture to pad the table? This pile must be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver!"

Su Bei threw the stack of papers on the table nonchalantly and sighed, "This thing is of no use to me. It doesn't even look good as a table mat. If you want, just use it as toilet paper!"

Chu Youyang understood what he meant, took the stack of papers, and created today's scene.

Chu Younan knew yesterday that he would do this, so when Jiang Bai told him the story, he was not surprised at all.

After hearing this, he thought about it for a long time.

Jiang Bai was secretly delighted, it seemed there was a way.
