When Princess Ji'an was provoked, she killed a person without blinking an eye. The person was a private soldier of the Teng family. The remaining people who were injured on the ground were terrified. When they looked at Feng Yuheng again, they felt like they were looking at a jade-faced king of hell. With just a few words, a person's head fell to the ground. Even the county magistrate Teng Ping was not so decisive, right?
Some people were slightly less injured and were crawling back on the ground. Feng Yuheng did not stop them and said, "Go back and tell Teng Ping that this princess killed him. As for the identity of the dead man, don't be so shameless as to call yourself a private soldier of Ji'an County. You are just members of the Teng family. Ji'an County does not want such scum. Go, people of the Teng family, tell your master that this is the consequence of openly confronting the Dashun Dynasty."
Seeing that she agreed to let them go, the injured people seemed to have been granted amnesty. No matter how badly they were injured, they tried their best to crawl as far as possible, as if they were afraid that they would lose their lives if they climbed too slowly.
Feng Yuheng was too lazy to care about it. She just asked the people around her to invite all the people to get up, and then raised her crisp voice and said, "Don't worry, since ancient times, evil has never prevailed over good. You are the people of Dashun, and the Dashun court has the obligation to guarantee your personal safety on your own land. As for the people of the Teng family, since they do not admit that they are the people of Dashun, they are rebelling. Today, my princess will come forward and send troops to suppress them on behalf of the court. Ji'an County will beat me down even if it hits me. However, those who have made our Ji'an County riddled with holes must pay the price for this. Don't worry, the Teng family and a thousand private soldiers are not enough to support a war. Since you are queuing up for a doctor, I'll go to the government office." After saying that, he turned to Li Zhu and said, "You don't have to follow. Go back and ask twenty brothers to come and guard the area around Baicaotang. Anyone from the Teng family or anyone related to the Teng family who comes to make trouble will be killed without mercy!"
She issued the death order, and Li Zhu saluted and immediately went back to mobilize troops. At Baicaotang, Wang Lin also led people to clean up the body and bloodstains, and ordered people to point the body directly to Yuzhou City and throw it into the mountains to feed the dogs.
Feng Yuheng bid farewell to the people and hurried to see Qian Fengshou.
Qian Fengshou had heard what happened at the entrance of Baicao Hall, but this was the only time he did not feel helpless or afraid when facing the affairs of the Teng family. Feng Yuheng had killed the man, which showed the position and attitude of Princess Ji'an. She wanted to take back Ji'an County! She wanted to fight the Teng family to the end! This was the result that the people of Yuzhou had been waiting for for generations, and this was something that Qian Fengshou had dreamed of making happen.
But he was also a little worried. After all, he knew how many soldiers Feng Yuheng brought. The Teng family had nearly a thousand private soldiers! So, when Feng Yuheng came to the government office, the first thing Qian Fengshou said when they met was: "The Yuzhou City Guard has 500 soldiers, all of them are at the disposal of the princess!"
Feng Yuheng nodded, and without being polite, he just said to Qian Fengshou: "Transfer the household registration of the Teng family so that I can see. Is it with you or in Yuntian Mansion?"
"Household registration?" Qian Fengshou was stunned, then shook his head, "No, no, I haven't seen it since I took over as the governor of Yuzhou. It is said that the household registration of the Teng family has not been in the Dashun government office for several generations, and it is not preserved in Yuntian Prefecture either."
"Oh?" Feng Yuheng raised an eyebrow, "Aren't they illegal residents of Dashun?"
Qian Fengshou thought for a moment and said, "They can't be called illegal households, right? At least they are not illegal households of Dashun. I heard that the Teng family established a separate household registration in the fiefdom of Ji'an County several generations ago. Not only the Teng family, but all the people living in Ji'an County were forced to cancel their household registration in Dashun and join the fiefdom household registration. From then on, they became people of Ji'an County and had no relationship with Dashun anymore."
"Da Shun doesn't care? You didn't report it to the court? Yuntian prefect didn't intervene?" Feng Yuheng couldn't figure it out. "You can be independent just by saying so. Could it be that the laws of the Great Dynasty are just a decoration here?"
"Princess, calm down." Qian Fengshou quickly replied, "This humble official has no way to deal with this. It happened decades ago. After this humble official took over as the governor of Yuzhou, he asked the governor Yuntian about this matter, but the governor Yuntian was also helpless. He once told this humble official that he had submitted a memorial to the court as early as the year he took office, but for some reason the memorial was suppressed by the people above, and there has been no news since then. Since then, no matter how many times the memorials related to the Teng family were submitted, they only ended up falling into the sea. It is obvious that someone in the capital is protecting them. We are not officials in the capital, so we cannot attend the morning court. There is no other way except submitting memorials. Later, slowly, no one was willing to care about the Teng family anymore."
Feng Yuheng frowned when she heard this. It was obvious that the Teng family had found a backer in the capital since the previous generations, and that backer was so powerful that he could suppress all the memorials. This generation was the eighth prince, who was the one in the previous generation? However, she had no intention of investigating things that were too far away. It would be useless to investigate them. Anyway, now that she was here, she could not let the Teng family continue to exist. It would be better for her, Feng Yuheng, to take back her territory as soon as possible.
"Take the soldiers guarding the city and immediately seal off all the properties of the Teng family in Yuzhou. Immediately!" She gave Qian Fengshou an order with a cold face, "If anyone obstructs, no matter who it is, they will be killed without mercy."
It was still the same sentence of killing without mercy, which frightened Qian Fengshou so much that he shuddered. He felt that the little girl in front of him was emitting a murderous aura that could not be ignored. He could feel the shock caused by the murderous aura even though he was five steps away from her. But he was still a little hesitant. Seize all the properties of the Fuji family! The Fuji family had more than one or two properties in Yuzhou. He had counted them and found that there were a total of eighteen. People secretly called those shops the eighteen levels of hell. As the governor, he would try to avoid those shops when he saw them in the city on weekdays, but now he had to take people to seal them up. Why did he always feel a little timid?
Feng Yuheng saw what Qian Fengshou was thinking and shook his head. "Master Qian, Deputy General Qian Li has never hesitated like you. If he had any hesitation about the orders given by his superiors, if he had any fear of the enemy, he would have no other end on the battlefield except death."
Qian Fengshou shuddered, and then remembered that his son Qian Li had said in a letter that Princess Ji'an Feng Yuheng was not an ordinary woman, and her martial arts were superb and profound, and even the Ninth Prince admired her. There was no trace of the petty nature that women usually have in her. This woman was naturally generous and gifted. The archery and formations in the army were all created by her. On the battlefield, she charged like a man, fighting side by side with the Ninth Prince, and was no less than a man.
Qian Fengshou gritted his teeth and said without hesitation, "I obey your command." Then, without further delay, he went to mobilize the troops.
And those seriously injured private soldiers, after Feng Yuheng and others left, found their companions who were also wandering around Yuzhou City and disturbing the people. They were carried back and recounted the tragic scene of the killing of the little leader along the way. They gritted their teeth and wanted to go back and report to the county governor, Lord Teng, to avenge them.
However, they didn't know that the county magistrate's mansion was in chaos at the moment, and he had no time to care about their affairs.
From the nightfall of yesterday until the end of the afternoon today, Fujihira had been enjoying himself in the small courtyard and had not come out. He had only summoned two male concubines last night, but for some reason, at midnight, all the male concubines and female concubines in the mansion gathered in the small courtyard. The servants wanted to stop them, but Fujihira and the two male concubines in the house were like crazy, expressing their infinite and warm welcome to the people who came later.
Since Fujihira had done this kind of absurd thing before, and it was not uncommon for him to summon seven or eight concubines at a time, the servants thought that he was having too much fun this time and was ready to take it to the next level, so they did not stop him. They knew the master's preferences, and they knew that if they stopped him at this time, they might lose their heads. So, all the male and female concubines were let in last night, and the sounds of revelry in the room were simply unstoppable, so noisy that even the old lady in the mansion could hear it.
The servants were secretly envious and jealous, but they did not expect that the noise would not stop all day and all night, until after noon, when the concubines, who could no longer bear it, crawled out of the house without caring about their image and shouted for help. The servants looked at the blood gushing out from the concubines' bodies and realized that something was wrong, so they hurried to the front yard to invite the guest doctors from the mansion.
Unexpectedly, the doctors came, three in total, and soon after they entered, two of them desperately ran out, one lost his clothes, one lost his pants, and the remaining one did not run out. Soon, the doctor's pig-like howling and Fujihira's obscene sounds were heard from the room.
The two doctors who ran out were so frightened that their faces turned pale. They quickly ordered the housekeeper of the Teng Mansion: "Quick! Go and get someone who can make the decision! I don't know what evil has befallen Master Teng. If he continues like this, he will die of exhaustion! Quick! There is no time to waste!"
The housekeeper turned around and ran away, wondering who to look for? Should he look for the old lady or the lady? Then he thought, the old lady is too old, and his body is about to fall apart, how can he withstand such stimulation? What if he comes and doesn't come like the doctor... He shook his head, not daring to think about it, but wondering why his master suddenly became so powerful. Could it be that the medicine prepared by those doctors was too strong to be controlled? In this way, even if this matter can be suppressed, the master will have to take good care of it for a while, and as for the male favorites and female concubines in the mansion, I am afraid they can no longer be used, so they will be thrown out and replaced with a new batch.
He was thinking while running towards Madam Teng. When he arrived in front of the yard and saw the maids and old women standing anxiously in the yard, he said anxiously: "Quick! Take me to see Madam, I have something urgent to report!" He was about to rush in while speaking. It was dinner time. He was the housekeeper of the mansion and he often reported the affairs of the mansion to the first lady on weekdays, not to mention that there were several things between him and the first lady that were unknown to others, so he didn't care about it.
He thought that he could just go in after the servants called out outside, but he didn't expect a row of maids and servants to suddenly block the door and not let him go in any further...
