Chapter 633: Doing Things

These two people had never met before. Baoyu was a Jia family member and had a relative relationship with Qin Keqing, while Bai Lang had none. So they just said a few very dull words, and Bai Lang walked straight downstairs. When he walked down, he saw a person in front of the building, a middle-aged man who looked quite handsome.

Seeing Bai Lang walk out, this person's eyebrows were not eyebrows and eyes were not eyes, and he directly shouted at a servant on the side, "What kind of person is this, and can enter the building? Where is the young mistress?" Bai Lang showed his teeth and smiled, and touched his bosom a few times, took out a large ingot of silver and threw it at this person. "Disrespectful words, this is considered your medical expenses."

After saying this, Bai Lang just punched him in the chest, and the man flew out and fell to the ground. "Afraid of a bird, you can't kill people after giving medical expenses, the old man still knows this rule." Bai Lang said this, and his attitude was to walk away, "At most, break a few bones."

From beginning to end, Bai Lang didn't ask the other party's name, and this person didn't ask Bai Lang's name. After going out, Bai Lang took his two younger brothers and went back.

The next day, Bai Lang already knew that Jia Zhen of the Ningguo Mansion was seriously injured, his chest bones were broken, and his limbs were all broken. Bai Lang just laughed. Did anyone in the Ningguo Mansion dare to come to him? It should be no, but they could go to the Emperor to cry. And not long after, there was a eunuch from the palace to pass the decree.

This was an oral decree, which was a heavy punishment for Bai Lang, saying that he was arrogant and unruly, and could be called the Taowu of the world. Now he had seriously injured Jia Zhen, the third-rank general of the Ningguo Mansion, which was really annoying. He ordered Bai Lang to pay money and also to be stripped of his title.

Stripping the title was actually stripping his family's hereditary ten thousand households, so the Emperor took the opportunity to write a big stroke and stripped him of five thousand households, so if Bai Lang wanted to raise an army, he could only raise one thousand now. "Hehe, this is a fart. Even if I only lead three hundred soldiers, I can still roam the world and be invincible." Bai Lang looked at his two younger brothers and said with a smile.

The eunuch naturally rolled away—in the past, he never gave any benefits to the eunuchs he didn't like. It was not bad that they didn't give him money to sell his life. As for how the eunuch would give Bai Lang eye drops when he went back, Bai Lang didn't care at all. "At worst, I'll rise up, kill into the palace, and seize this dog Emperor's bird position!"

This way of seizing power could only be said to be a kindergarten idea. Bai Lang naturally knew that this was just thinking about it casually, "This broken dynasty, I think it's gloomy and dying..." Think carefully about how long this has been. It's only the third generation since the current Emperor, but this Emperor looks like the template of the so-called "Ming Jun Kang Mazi," with a long reign and the first half is okay.

For such an Emperor, Bai Lang had no good feelings by nature. Even if it was a guy like Chongzhen who was arbitrary and had no responsibility and pitted all the dynasty's luck, Bai Lang could still do something for him, but like Kang Mazi and Qian Daye, these "Ming Jun," Bai Lang didn't even want to look at them, as for Daoguang and the like, it was even worse.

"Sooner or later, let him be Emperor Xiaojing of Wei!" Bai Lang laughed secretly. His two younger brothers were a little scared, "Afraid of a bird! I have already given him medical expenses, and I won't give him a penny if he wants more! As for stripping my family of five thousand households? Hahahaha, I wish for it, I can just replace the old and weak, and only keep... five hundred elite soldiers!"

Bai Lang simply cut the number of the Bai family army again—anyway, the military system at the border was no different from the end of the Ming Dynasty in Bai Lang's view. The main general raised family soldiers, and fighting relied entirely on family soldiers. Other soldiers were beggars. Since it was the same, why should Bai Lang specifically raise a group of beggars? It's better to let them go home and he can save some money.

Isn't it good to go home to farm and pay rent? Of course, this requires Bai Lang himself to go to the location of his ten thousand households at the border again to organize the land deeds—he is sure that these lands have been annexed a lot over the years, and the local gentry should occupy a lot. At that time, Bai Lang doesn't care about killing people.

Anyway, it can be pushed to the Mongolians, it can be pushed to the Cossacks—if these western barbarians can approach again.

Bai Lang just took the Emperor's oral decree as a fart, and he didn't go to the Ningguo Mansion, just practiced martial arts in the mansion, and of course, ran to the village outside the city to find horses. "I guess I still have to take it back to the border to raise. There is no way. If I leave it there, it will definitely be divided by those bastards. They won't care about an Earl who left."

After seven or eight days, the servants in the house brought a message, "The head of the Ningguo Mansion is dead. I heard that he died of serious injuries and was beaten to death by our old master." Bai Lang was also dumbfounded, "I just touched him lightly, broken bones but definitely wouldn't die—this guy must have done something in the injury, such as looking for a woman, which affected the injury and then died." It is thought that Jia Zhen is a real playboy and lecher, and it is absolutely possible for him to do such a thing.

"Oh, since the brother of the family is dead, I still have to go and offer incense." Bai Lang laughed loudly, took his two younger brothers, and went to the door as a bad guest. The three of them walked to the Ningguo Mansion swaggeringly, "Tianshui Earl is here!" Where did the servants at the door dare to stop these three bad people, so they had to pass the message loudly.

The one who handled the funeral was Qin Keqing of the Ningguo Mansion, Jia Rong was a filial son kowtowing in front of the hall, and the servants of the Rongguo Mansion also came to fill the scene. The old master and young master of the Rongguo Mansion also came over—even the Ningguo Mansion's old master Jia Jing, who practiced Daoism, rarely came out of the Daoist temple.

Hearing that Bai Lang brought his two younger brothers, Jia Rong of the Ningguo Mansion first became a pushover, looking left and right, up and down, and didn't know what to do. Was he going to kowtow or take a knife and go out to fight—although the public cause of Jia Zhen's death was "illness," but who didn't know that he was beaten to death by the Tianshui Earl Bai Lang? Only Jia Rong and a few others knew that Jia Zhen was lecherous and died after looking for a concubine on the sickbed...

The Rongguo Mansion was also waste. Seeing that Jia Rong didn't move, everyone played deaf and dumb—there were many words to comfort themselves, such as the Emperor had already punished them, such as this time it might be to apologize? Before Jia Rong could figure it out, Bai Lang had already stepped into the mourning hall.

Seeing a heroic man walking in swaggeringly, he grabbed a handful of incense, lit it, and didn't worship, but just inserted it like this. "Condolences." Bai Lang cupped his hands to Jia Rong, "Hurry up and donate an official position, otherwise I think your Duke mansion is hard to handle—inheriting the title to your father's generation seems to be the end. Are you afraid that you have no title to inherit? By the way, does the Emperor have any favor? Give you an empty title of third-rank General of Might is also good." Bai Lang kindly gave Jia Rong a trick.

"Actually, there is another way. You take your wife and follow me to join the army. Win a title with a sword and spear—how simple, you register grain and military supplies in the back, and when the time comes, I will share a military merit with you, inheriting the Ningguo Duke title is a small matter." ===== CHAPTER 634 =====
