Chapter 176 The Seven Sons of the Shi Family

System: [“Mom-provoking death” originally means that if the mother of a mama’s boy offends someone, or is offended by someone, that person will die! ]

Crowd: !!!

What?

What is a Mama's Boy?

And whether you provoke me or you are provoked, you will die? Are you so overbearing?

Finally, General Lin couldn't help but steal a glance at Yuan Ruan.

Yuan Ruan: [Mama’s boy? Who in the Shi family is a mama’s boy?]

System: [All seven are mama's boys. It's a pity that these mama's boys didn't come. Lin Xiaojiang and Shi Jiazi don't have that much connection, there are only a few little ones in their family. But they are all outrageous. Ah Ruan, do you want to take a look? ]

Yuanruan: [Haha, here comes the melon. ]

System: [Each of the Shi Yiqi brothers has more than three heads in his hands. He usually slacks off in the Death Camp and leaves early every day to go home to accompany his mother.]

Yuan Ruan was stunned: [Huh? I suddenly thought of something. Since they have already redeemed themselves, why don’t they take their mother away? ]

System: [There are two reasons. First, military merit can exempt the slaves themselves, their wives, and their children from slavery. But only their wives and children can leave, and they themselves cannot leave the army. In addition, the seven people of the Shi family have become the bosses of the entire slave area. They think it is safer to keep their mother here than to let her leave.]

Yuan Ruan: [Is that so? Then I understand why Lin Xiaojiang did this. I support him too.]

Young General Lin's eyes lit up slightly. This was the first time he met someone who supported him. Even his brother thought his idea was crazy.

The other court officials clenched their fists, wanting to say something but not daring to.

They first looked at the emperor and found that he was thoughtful.

The court officials were all nervous, and all looked at the Crown Prince, as if to say: Crown Prince! Go ahead! Make the little Imperial Master change his mind.

The prince looked away calmly: learn a lesson, don't take the blame from too many ministers, otherwise he will be blamed for all the blame in the future.

System: [Ha, yes, I also think that those who are implicated or become slaves because of their parents should be given more opportunities. So Ah Ruan, under such circumstances, why do you think Shi Yi would join General Lin's death squad and stand out again?]

Young General Lin raised his eyebrows slightly with interest.

The others also pricked up their ears to listen.

Yuan Ruan observed Lin Xiaojiang carefully. She originally wanted to see if Lin Xiaojiang had any sisters that attracted Shi Yi.

But on second thought, Shi Yi is a mama's boy and not a love-minded person.

Yuan Ruan: [Is it related to Shi Yi's mother? Did General Lin save Shi's mother?]

System: [Wow! Ah Ruan is really smart. Yes, the seven brothers of the Shi family relied on their prestige to arrange a very simple job for Shi's mother to collect firewood. Then, in early spring, when the water level rose, General Lin saw Shi's mother fall and almost fell into the river, so he helped to pull her out. After returning home, Shi's mother kept praising General Lin, and took the initiative to help the fireman cook, and sent extra meals to General Lin every day.]

Yuan Ruan: [Sure enough, Shi Jiazi joined in order to repay the favor. ]

General Lin had a strange look on his face.

Repay?

Is Shi Yi's bad temper his attitude towards his benefactor?

There are also Shi Yi's other brothers who rush over for no reason and challenge him to arm wrestling, archery and martial arts. They don't look friendly at all.

System: [No. Because Shi's mother was helping General Lin, she had no time to make pancakes for the Shi family, so she let them go to other military camps to eat. The seven brothers of the Shi family were so upset that they pushed aside other slaves and joined General Lin's death squad in order to eat the food made by their mother.]

Crowd: …

Are you seven brothers a little sick?

Yuan Ruan's face was full of absurdity: [Pfft, just because you want to eat the pancakes made by your mom? So your whole family joins Lin Xiaojiang's team? ]

System: [Yes. It was also because Shi's mother praised Lin Xiaojiang for his intelligence and strength that Shi Yi refused to accept the fact, so he dared to fight and kill in the Death Squad, and became a famous beheading slave soldier, which attracted Lin Xiaojiang's attention.]

Yuanruan: [Mama’s boy…you are not lying to me.]

Everyone: ...Mama, don’t bully me.

System: [And from General Lin, I also saw some other little people related to the Shi brothers. It was also very funny. For example, after Shi Yi came to prominence, Shi Er suddenly said to his brother, "You killed ten more Huns here, and you have repaid the favor of General Lin. You have also proved that you are powerful enough. You can rest in peace now." Coincidentally, Shi's mother also expressed her sympathy for Shi Yi, and Shi Yi immediately became weak. As a result, Shi Er suddenly emerged as a new force. ]

Yuanruan sucked his fingers in surprise: [Huh?]

System: [Shi Er chopped off thirteen heads in a row. That night, Shi's mother gave Shi Er a chicken leg to praise him and felt sorry for his hard work. Shi Er said it was not hard, killing the enemy was also to protect his mother, and he would keep working hard for his mother. Shi Yi was so angry that his weapon was almost broken by him.]

Courtiers: ...

The way you play tricks is comparable to that of the concubines in the harem.

Yuan Ruan's eyes widened in shock: [Good fellow, using his own brother as a stepping stone, Shi Er is really good at tea art! General Lin's death squad has actually become an arena for their play.]

Lin Xiaojiang: ...

System: [Yes. Fortunately, Mother Shi is very good at keeping things balanced. She said that each of the ten fingers has its own strengths. No matter what you do, Mother loves you the most. Only then did Shi Yi and Shi Er settle down. But this is also the reason why they didn't act like a jerk and kill people on the battlefield. The main reason is that they want to compete for the first place with Mother.]

Yuan Ruan: [Pfft. This mama's boy is quite interesting. Also, I have to write down Mama Shi's words about keeping balance, so that I can use them for my brother and nephew in the future.]

emperor:……

Prince: ...

System: [Haha, Ah Ruan, if you are interested, wait until you meet him in person, and I will help you collect some good words.]

Yuan Ruan was so amused that she covered her mouth and laughed: [I'm kind of looking forward to meeting you. 】

The emperor paused and asked General Lin, "Are the seven sons of the Shi family you mentioned here?"

General Lin was stunned. The emperor doted on the imperial teacher too much! Was he planning to summon him?

But he still bowed and said, "Your Majesty, they are all chasing the remaining Xiongnu soldiers and have not yet returned to the army."

"Well." The emperor waved his hand. "When you have time in the future, let me see how brave the slave soldiers who have attracted your attention are."

Then the chief eunuch clapped his hands very cleverly.

More than a dozen beautiful dancers in gorgeous costumes, barefoot, came slowly towards the stage, following the sound of bells.

To the sound of stringed instruments, they began to dance gracefully on the deck.

But apart from the Emperor, Yuan Ruan and General Lin who were watching, the court officials in the rear were all discussing in low voices with their own thoughts.

The Minister of War whispered: "Sir, those slave soldiers are bleeding with the blood of criminals. How can we allow them to return to Kyoto?"

The Minister of Finance calculated and said, "I think what General Lin said makes sense. How much does it cost to train a soldier from scratch? Instead of letting them rot, it is better to hang a carrot in front of them."

The Minister of War frowned: "The key is not bravery, but blasphemy. Slaves are slaves."

The Minister of Revenue said, "According to what you said, it is blasphemy. Any heads cut off by slaves exceeding three will be invalidated. They can no longer be rewarded for their military merits as commanders. Come here to collect your money. My Lord, Minister of War, are you right? Did you use the heads of the slave army?"

The Minister of War was so angry that he fell backwards: "You are making a ridiculous excuse. Slaves are our personal property, so why can't we just let it go? It's worth it."

The Minister of War also looked unhappy, and turned to look at the Minister of Revenue: "Is this what you mean?"

The Minister of Finance glanced at him and said, "Why? You can't have different opinions?"

When the bosses of both sides were about to quarrel, Yuan Ruan's voice suddenly rang out in front.

Yuanruan: [Tong'er, you said before that there was something you forgot to mention. What was it? ]

System: [Ah, I almost forgot again! Xie Yulong’s national destiny mission has been completed. You can draw a new magical power.]

The courtiers who were about to quarrel: !!!

What?!

New magical power is coming? !

Everyone instantly calmed down and looked at Yuanruan expectantly.
