Chapter 51 Chapter 51 Chapter 51
When System 679 heard Yinyou's words, it immediately followed his gaze and looked outside.
Not far from their carriage, they saw a girl of about fifteen or sixteen, with a look of fear on her face, her hands handcuffed behind her back by several servants, unable to move. In front of the girl stood a man in gorgeous clothes.
The man's voice also came towards them: "Your father sold you to me for ten taels of silver. You are mine. I have the final say on your life and death!"
Kangxi's gaze fell on the man in gorgeous clothes. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light quickly flashed across his eyes.
He didn't know that a 28-year-old woman was only worth ten taels of silver.
It means going to the palace to be a maid. Even the lowest-ranking maid could earn one or two taels of silver a month.
The higher ones are a few taels of silver or more than ten taels of silver.
And when she reached a certain age, she could leave the palace.
Outside, one can actually buy out his life for ten taels of silver.
Thinking of this, he said to Liang Jiugong who was driving, "Stop the car."
Liang Jiugong pulled the reins hard and the carriage slowly stopped.
Kangxi, holding Yinyu in his arms, lifted the door curtain and stepped out of the carriage. He asked in a calm voice, "Are you trying to forcibly seize a commoner's daughter in public?"
Upon hearing this, the man immediately put down his fan, squinted at Kangxi, and asked arrogantly, "Who are you? What does it have to do with you whether I, a young master, forcibly abducted a woman?"
"Mind your own business! You might not be able to leave soon!"
When Yinyu heard this, he suddenly laughed. He smiled at the 679 system and said, "System, is this person threatening my father?"
"Who is his father? How dare he threaten my father?"
Judging from the way this person is dressed and how arrogant he is, he is definitely not an ordinary person, otherwise they would have met him so soon after leaving the city.
When Liang Jiugong heard this, he couldn't help but take two steps forward and shouted at the man, "How dare you!"
After seeing Liang Jiugong's plump white face, the man sneered and said, "How dare you!"
"You know who I am, don't you? How dare you talk to me like that?!"
"In the entire capital, besides those in the palace, who dares to interfere in my affairs? Now that you've met me, don't leave. I think this child is quite good-looking, and maybe he can be sold for a good price!"
As he said this, he waved at a few people with a smile on his face that was a little cruel.
The people who followed the man, except for the two who were holding down the girl, all the others moved their hands and feet and surrounded Kangxi and the others.
Liang Jiugong looked at the men and suddenly became nervous. He stood beside Kangxi, his eyes wide open, and said to him, "Master, please take the young master back and wait for me to deal with them."
His kung fu is really a bit mediocre, with some tricks he learned along the way. He can deal with ordinary people, but if he goes against a martial artist, I'm afraid he won't be their match.
Kangxi looked at Liang Jiugong's nervous expression, raised his hand and said to the side: "Clean it up."
Suddenly, a black shadow flew out from the carriage. His figure was ethereal and very fast, and he shot towards the servants who were surrounding him.
In less than a minute, all the servants were knocked to the ground.
When the leading man saw the man lying on the ground, his breathing suddenly became disordered and his face turned pale. He pointed at Kangxi and said, "Do you know who I am? How dare you attack me!"
After the man in black dealt with all the servants, he flew towards the carriage and in an instant it was as if he had never appeared.
Yin Yu's eyes widened as he watched the scene before him. He excitedly said to the 679 system, "Wow! Wow, system, is that a secret guard?!"
"His movements are so handsome, and he flies so beautifully."
Upon hearing this, the 679 system said in a childish mechanical voice, "Don't overthink it. Your father would never give it to you. That secret guard is the leader of your father's secret guards. He has the best and highest level of martial arts skills."
"He's also someone who's been with your father all year round. Do you think your father would be willing to give it to you?"
He thought that if it were any other secret guard, Kangxi might have given it to Yinyou as soon as he asked.
But this secret guard leader is different.
He was in charge of the entire secret guard camp, so how could Kangxi be willing to give it to him?
Kangxi listened to the words of "One Man, One Union" and a bright smile appeared on his lips. However, his eyes were cold as he looked at the person in front of him and asked him, "Who are you?"
This man didn't look very smart, and he wanted to see who his father was.
If he says it's the best, I can find it out even without him saying it!
When the man heard Kangxi's words, he immediately felt that Kangxi was afraid of him. He looked up at Kangxi and the others and said arrogantly, "You may not know who my father is, but you will definitely know who my grandfather is!"
After saying this, he turned to Kangxi and said, "My maternal grandfather is Suo Etu. He was a high-ranking official in the imperial court and a relative of the Crown Prince. Moreover, the Crown Prince and I have a very good relationship. If you dare to offend me, I will make it impossible for you to stay in the capital, or even in the entire Qing Dynasty!"
Upon hearing this, Kangxi immediately understood who the person in front of him was. This was the filial grandson that Soetu had praised to God some time ago.
Although he is said to be Soetu's grandson, he is not a biological one. He is the child born to the eldest daughter of his brother's family.
Because he is the only male in the family, he is especially precious to him.
At that time, he wanted to revise the imperial edict for Yinzhen, and Soetu was the one who spoke to him. He remembered his name was Naso.
Yes, it’s Nassau!
Thinking of this, he chuckled, looked at Nasuo and said in a cold voice: "I didn't know that the prince had a good relationship with you. If I knew, I would definitely beat him up!"
The moment Nasuo heard this, he felt a chill run down his spine. He took two steps back, sank down on a chair, pointed at Kangxi, and said in a trembling voice, "You...you...what did you say!"
The Emperor?! Impossible. Although he called himself "Zhen", he definitely couldn't be the Emperor. He remembered that today was the Emperor's birthday, and many people went to the palace to attend the banquet.
Even his grandfather had passed away, so how could the emperor be outside?
Thinking of this, he shook his head vigorously, trying to shake off the fear in his heart.
Kangxi sneered while holding Yinyu in his arms, "Oh, then who do you say I am?"
Liang Jiugong stood in front of Kangxi, with a cold expression on his plump white face. This man dared to threaten the emperor, even if he was Soetu's men, they would not be able to stop him!
Nasuo's gaze fell on Yinyu. The moment he saw the jade pendant around his waist, he trembled all over. He suddenly knelt and kowtowed to Kangxi: "Your servant Nasuo pays homage to the emperor. May the emperor be blessed with good health."
He then frantically explained to Kangxi, "Your Majesty, please spare my life. I was too blind to recognize your identity. Please spare my life!"
He really didn't expect to meet the emperor in this place. If he knew any bloody news, he would never come out, let alone put himself in a dangerous situation for a peasant girl.
Kangxi looked at the man who was still holding the woman down, and frightened the two men so much that they suddenly let go of their hands and knelt on the ground.
When the girl heard it was the emperor, she immediately knelt down in front of him and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!"
Seeing this, Yin Yu sighed and said to the 679 system: "System, since Nasuo is here, does he know a lot of things?"
"Look at what he's involved in."
When System 679 heard Yinyu's words, it said to him with some disdain, "Host, your father is right here. He brought you out here to investigate Suo'etu's affairs. Now that Nasuo has been captured, how could he not know about his affairs?"
"Are you sure you want to watch the short video, just a little while before your dad left?"
Yinyou hugged Kangxi's neck and was stunned. He didn't expect that the 679 system had become so smart that it could tell him such things without his reminder.
It didn't seem to matter much whether I knew the answer immediately or from Nassau's mouth.
Thinking of this, he said to System 679: "Let's wait. The three short videos I made today are still very valuable."
Kangxi listened to the words of the one-man-one-union man and asked him, "Why do you want to forcibly seize this woman?!"
Nasuo shuddered when he heard this. He kowtowed to Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is truly not my fault. Chunhong is Old Sun's daughter. Old Sun's son was ill and needed money, so he sold her to me for ten taels of silver."
"Chunhong knew about it too. She actually changed her mind while following me. I've already spent money, how could I let her get away?"
After saying that, he lowered his head and looked at the ground, glaring at Chunhong with some annoyance.
Kangxi asked Chunhong, "Is it true?"
Chunhong's face turned pale instantly, and after a long while she nodded and said, "Yes."
"It was just that he said fifteen taels at the beginning, but who knew that he only gave my father ten taels, which is five taels less. Naturally, I can't go with him."
As she spoke, she kowtowed to Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, please help me. My brother is really waiting for money to save his life."
When Nasuo heard this, he was immediately furious. He yelled at Chunhua, "Can you blame me? Your father said you were beautiful, but you came here with a birthmark on your face. If I hadn't kept my promise, I wouldn't have given you the ten taels of silver!"
Kangxi looked at the expression on Nasuo's face and chuckled. "Then did you know that trafficking in human beings is punishable by caning?"
When Nasuo heard this, the excitement on his face disappeared. He looked up at Kangxi blankly, and after a long while, he shook his head and said, "I don't know. I only know that I can buy it with money, and after I buy it, it's mine."
Upon hearing this, Kangxi let out a faint smile. He said to the others, "It's not the case that ignorance is innocent. Since you've already trafficked in human beings, I'll punish you with fifty strokes of the cane as a warning to others. Liang Jiugong, you will carry out the punishment yourself."
Let’s fight first. After the fight, Nasuo’s family should be here.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. Now that he had caught Nassau's handle, how could he not find the person behind it?
Nasuo was stunned. He quickly kowtowed to Kangxi and said, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. You also said that ignorance is not a crime. I will never dare to do it again."
He didn't expect that the emperor didn't take action against him, but now he made him be beaten with fifty sticks.
Just based on his attitude towards Liang Jiugong, Liang Jiugong would definitely not show mercy to him.
When Liang Jiugong heard this, he pulled out a wooden stick from the carriage and said to Kangxi, "Your Majesty, I can't find a stick, so I'll use this stick."
As he said this, he walked towards the person step by step.
Nasuo was so frightened that he kept backing away on the ground. His eyes were red as he said, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me this time."
After fifty blows, he would have no chance of survival.
Yin Yu looked at the person in front of him, his eyes shining. "System, I just saw one of Nasuo's men run away. Do you think they beat up the younger one and then the older one comes?"
"Will we have a dozen or so?"
System 679 listened to Yinyou's words and said in a childish, mechanical voice, "He must have gone to get reinforcements. Perhaps this person has arrived before he was even beaten."
At this moment, a gorgeously dressed woman on horseback came galloping over from a distance. Before she even arrived, she whipped her whip and shouted, "Who of you dares to lay a hand on my son? Do you know who I am?!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she jumped off the horse. When she turned around, she saw Kangxi standing beside her with a dark face. She was stunned for a moment!
