Chapter 300 Titans
"Is King Yan very fierce when he was alive?" Chen Tong was a little curious.
Xiao Ren nodded, but then said, "For the general, how can you say that you are fierce or not?"
This is indeed a fact. The merits of military generals are based on blood and bones.
"But the King of Yan was indeed a teenager who was a great contribution. Emperor Taizu was very happy, but at this time he was a thirty man. Li Yongji, the Marquis of Anchang, took over the matter of the Censor in the court. Emperor Taizu did not want this to become a stain on the King of Yan, so he fined Li Yongji a year's salary. Since then, no one in the court mentioned this matter again." Xiao Ren smiled and said, "I also heard people when I was in the military camp. Li Yongji, Anchang, handed over military power since then. Many of his old subordinates still complained, but Emperor Taizu did not treat the Li family unfairly. Although no one in the Li family made achievements, they have been smooth sailing over the years. Li Guanzhong, the commander of Feiyuwei, is the prince of Anchang,."
"What was the reason for that time? The King of Yan was about to be shot by the censor?" Chen Tong had no idea about the affairs of the court, let alone these old things, but she knew that the King of Yan was in the limelight at that time and Emperor Taizu was very favored. Unless something big happened, the Censors would not flirt with the emperor's tiger beard at this time.
"There is a village in Yanbei called Sunjiazhuang. It is said that the King of Yan suspected that the people in Sunjiazhuang colluded with the Tartar spies and hid the seriously injured Tartar generals, so he killed more than a thousand people in the village. Sunjiazhuang is not an ordinary village. The Sun family is a famous farming and reading family in Yanbei. His ancestors had a Jinshi and many juren. All the people living in Sunjiazhuang were the direct descendants and branches of the Sun family. That time, except for the children of the Sun family who were officials in other places, the rest of the people, whether men, women, or young, were killed. The bodies were piled up into a mountain. Later, they were covered with heavy snow, which was extremely terrifying. Some people painted the scene at that time and were repeatedly copied among the people and spread widely. One was called "The Atrocities of King Yan" and the other was called "The Snow of the Corpse Mountain in Yanbei."
Chen Tong was slightly surprised and said, "Have you seen those two paintings?"
Xiao Ren smiled and said, "How could I see this? Since Anchang Hou took this matter on his body, Emperor Taizu would certainly not let this painting be passed down to the world. I just heard what the military men said. I asked Zhou Zheng, and he ran to someone to find these two paintings, but the prince found out, so he called us to scold us and punished us to go to Xianyang Camp to feed the horses that had been for a month."
Chen Tong said, "This is strange. Since all the people in the village, regardless of gender, age, are they killed, who painted these two paintings? Could it be based on legends?"
"It should be true. The Sun family has some prestige among scholars in Yanbei. They have many old friends. I think it was painted by those people." Xiao Ren said.
The two of them sighed again, but the matter was not related to them and they quickly left behind.
But Chen Tong, like Xiao Ren, became interested in the disappearing Tartar army, but this interest came and went quickly. When the butcher's family returned to Xi'an, Chen Tong lost all his interest.
Huang was placed in a proper place, and Jiang Tuhu's second son and daughter-in-law also lived there. His second daughter-in-law was Chen Tong met on the street, a handsome daughter-in-law selling lotus leaves.
The Jiang family and the son are all driving big carts. Although the Jiang family is not in Xi'an, it does not affect the business. The carts come and go, and the father and son can meet every few days.
The one who came to see Chen Tong was Jiang Da’s wife. She had the tall figure unique to women outside the control room, thick eyebrows, big eyes and loud voice.
When Chen Tong heard her talk, her ears were buzzing.
"Mrs. Chen was dejected when she was on the road, but when she got to settle down, the next day she seemed to be fine and stopped crying. We were worried that she would seek death at the beginning, but Mrs. Chen was really not that kind of person. She could eat and drink, and a big bowl of pork vermicelli was eaten. By the way, what would she say?"
Chen Tong was very surprised. If she hadn't personally arranged for the butcher's family to go there, she would have thought that the person Jiang Da's wife mentioned was not Ah Niang.
"What do you say, my mother?" Chen Tong asked in a deep voice.
As soon as he said that, Jiang Da’s wife regretted it a little. She reached out and gave herself a mouth, saying, “Miss Chen, don’t be upset. I am a person who can tell the truth to the end. When the words come, I don’t know if they are hidden. If the girl doesn’t like to listen, just scold me.”
Chen Tong smiled. She had heard a lot of nice words, and she wanted to hear bad words too.
"It's okay, tell me." Chen Tong said.
Jiang Da’s wife finally suppressed her voice and whispered: “Ms. Chen said she wants to live well and watch with her own eyes…………… Watch you pay Lang Yue’s life.”
Although Chen Tong had been mentally prepared, her heart was still stinged when she heard these two sentences.
After Jiang Da’s wife left, Chen Tong sat in a daze on the chair. I don’t know how long it took, but she felt someone was pulling her skirt. She thought it was an orange, but when she looked down, she looked it was Fangfei.
Fangfei squatted on the ground like a kitten. When she saw Chen Tong looking down at her, she immediately meowed, and her two black big eyes looked at Chen Tong pitifully.
Chen Tong was amused by her little appearance, reached out to touch her head, and said, "Go and clean up the house. I will move to the opposite house tomorrow. You can let the little sister move over here. From now on, you two live in this house."
Fangfei was happy at first, then she turned her face down: "My little sister will definitely not agree. She wants to be with Han Wuji and A Shao."
Chen Tong said, "Just say it was what I said. She is growing up and can no longer live in the same room with Han Wuji and Young Master. If she doesn't want to come, let's go with Han Wuji and the others."
Fangfei stuck out her tongue, jumped up and ran to find her younger sister.
After a while, she pulled her little sister over.
The little sister was sad and was about to kneel down when she saw Chen Tong. Fangfei grabbed her and said, "Miss doesn't like being kneeling the most. If you have something to say, you must leave and you can't stay for a day."
Chen Tong was stunned. She didn't say that. Fangfei actually said it backwards.
"Miss Chen, please don't let us go. Young Master A loves reading very much. If we let us go, Young Master A will not have any books. Besides, we have not yet repay your kindness."
Chen Tong laughed, Fangfei seemed to be becoming more and more clever.
"Since that's the case, then you can move to me and follow Fangfei to help me with work. In this way, Young Master can continue to study at Mr. Chi's place." Chen Tong said with a stern face.
"Okay, okay, I'll move here now. Miss Chen will do whatever I want." The little girl immediately burst into tears and laughed. She even forgot that they have been doing things for Chen Tong these days.
The next day, the younger sister moved here. The two girls happily arranged the room, but Fangfei was a little confused. Why did the younger sister have to move here? The Xu family doesn’t have an empty house?
