Chapter 20 Nanye Opera Zhongding Jiaozhou Zuo Ci Yuji Double Out of Customs 10

The Assassin House in Panyu, Nanhai is decorated with lanterns to welcome the arrival of the new Assassin Nanye. No one can see that a former assassin's funeral has just been held here a few days ago. The word "people walk with cold tea" is vividly reflected at this time.

As soon as Zhu Fu died that day, Shi Wu rushed to the assassin's mansion to copy Zhu Fu's home in the name of escorting the coffin. In this way, the Zhu family tree fell and dispersed, and Zhu Fu's concubines and servants were scattered cleanly. Only some of the veterans in the Assassin's Mansion had nowhere to go and helped the Zhu family take care of Zhu Fu's later life.

After the funeral, the Zhu family was afraid of the scholar's family and did not dare to stay in Jiaozhou, so they left Jiaozhou in the name of returning home. The Taishou, Juncheng and other positions in Nanhai County are all close confidants appointed by Zhu Fu. These people have no ability. They know that they can't fight against the scholars, and they can't provoke the mage Nanye, who holds the military power, so they simply left with the Zhu family, leaving only a deserted assassin's mansion.

After Nanye arrived in Panyu, he was simply shocked by the bleak scene in the Assassin's Mansion, and another inventory of the treasury made Nanye's heart cool. Not only is there no penny or a grain of grain in this treasury, but also owes the soldiers' salaries. If you don't know it, you will definitely think that the thieves broke through the Assassin's Mansion and killed Zhu Fu.

Nan Ye called the old soldiers in the house and inquired about it. Only then did they know that half of the things in the house were taken away by Shi Wu and half taken away by the Zhu family, which was so clean. Fortunately, the Zhu family was still afraid of Nan Ye and did not take away the assassin Dayin together and sell it for money, otherwise Nanye would really be blind.

Nan Ye is not without money, but his money exists in Luoyang New Town, which can't quench his thirst. Just when Nan Ye was worried about money, many gentry rich people in the city came to congratulate him and brought a lot of gifts. Nanye didn't expect that someone would bribe him as soon as he took office. He didn't want to accept it, but Xi Zhicai advised him to accept it and said that this kind of courtesy was not illegal.

It turned out that the law of the Han Dynasty stipulated the crime of bribery: the chief official received the property and seized the title, and the crime of receiving bribes or gold leaks was added to the first class. The so-called bribery refers to the selfishness of accepting bribes, while gold leaks refer to the disclosure of secrets after accepting bribes. Obviously, these gentry merchants who came to give gifts are not subordinates of Nan Ye, and they just want to have a good relationship with Nan Ye, the new assassin, rather than ask him to be selfish and leak secrets, so they don't bribe him.

Nan Ye nodded after listening to Xi Zhicai's explanation. He knew that the wind of gift-giving had never been interrupted even after a thousand years. Under the rule of the greedy Lingdi, officials were corrupt and bribed, and his predecessor Zhu Fu was still famous. If you don't accept it yourself, it will make these gift-giving people worried. It's better to accept these belongings at this time to relieve the urgent need and make plans later.

After receiving the gift, Nan Ye's hands were finally a little richer. The first thing he did with this money was to pay the county soldiers. Because it is far from enough to deal with the scholar family and defend Jiaozhou when the heroes compete in the future, the thousands of soldiers in their hands are obviously far from enough.

But when Nan Ye entered the barracks to count the county soldiers, his heart was cold again. There were only hundreds of old, weak and disabled soldiers left in the barracks. The elites in the camp either died with Zhu Fu, or fled everywhere after the defeat and did not return to the camp. Even if some people fled back, they were taken away by the Zhu family. If Nan Ye didn't come with him, he would have become a veritable light pole commander.

Nan Ye knew at a glance that these old, weak soldiers were useless, so he gave them double food and salaries to make their own living, and his elites lived in the military camp. In this way, the salary of thousands of people prepared before will be saved.

According to Xi Zhicai's intention, he used this money to recruit new soldiers, but Nan Ye thought that the money should be divided into those soldiers who died in battle. On the one Hand, because Zhu Fu owed the grain and salary of these soldiers at that time, and secondly, because Nan Ye felt that he should give these soldiers who died in the battle a pension. He could not write off the debt owed by the assassin's government and the pension of the imperial court because of Zhu Fu's death.

After Nan Ye expressed his opinion, he thought that Xi Zhi would oppose it. Unexpectedly, Xi Zhi thought about it and agreed with Nan Ye's approach. He also said that Nan Ye's behavior was a golden bone. He seemed to suffer losses, but in fact he took advantage of it.

Nan Ye knew that this allusion to the daughter bought horse bones came from the Warring States Policy, which was told by Guo Kui, the counselor of the King of Yanzhao. As soon as he thought about it, he understood the meaning of Xi Zhicai. He paid food and pensions for his predecessor Zhu Fu, which seemed to suffer losses. In fact, he did not gather people's hearts for himself and let the people of Jiaozhou know that he was a kind person who treated soldiers. If you recruit again in the future, you will definitely compete with each other.

Realizing the importance of this matter, Nan Ye decided to simply play a big one. On the morning of the second day, he led a group of Wenwu, guards and disciples under his command to walk around the city in plain clothes and went door to visit the families of the fallen soldiers. He not only brought a pension, but also praised these soldiers as heroes who died for their country one by one. If the mourning hall of someone's memorial has not been withdrawn, Nanye will definitely lead his subordinates to worship in person.

There are at least 200 people in Nanye's relatives and disciples. After rowing up, they are like a long dragon. Walking on the street is like a parade, which makes it difficult for people not to pay attention. In less than half a day, the people of the whole city learned about the new assassin, Mage Nanye, who comforted the soldiers who died in the war. This kind of thing has never happened before. The people felt curious and followed Nanye's team to see the excitement.

The families of those soldiers who died in the war are ordinary people. Not to mention the assassins of a state, even the governors of a county have never been with each other. They were a little overwhelmed when they saw Nan Ye leading so many people to the door, and some people were so scared that they didn't even dare to open the door. Nan Ye was not in a hurry. He said his intention over and over again. If he really couldn't open the door, he praised the soldiers who died in the battle outside the door and threw the pension into the door and turned his head and left.

After all, there are still a few people who dare not open the door and pretend that no one is at home. Most people are trembling to invite Nanye in and are grateful to send Nan Ye out. Many family members of soldiers cried after seeing the belated pension and knelt down to Nan Ye.

Nan Ye comforted these families one by one. In the afternoon, the whole city knew about Master Nanye's condolences to the families of the fallen soldiers, and no one let Nanye close the door. Several closed-door people also returned to it and deliberately caught up with Nanye's team to thank him.

Along the way, Nanye saw a lot of various family members. Some of them were relieved and some were sad to see Nanye, but the performance of one family made Nanye suspicious. There are three people in this family, an old couple with a little girl under the age of ten. There was nothing suspicious about this, but the little girl's words attracted Nan Ye's attention.

"My brother is not dead!" When Nan Ye was praising the family's son for his hero, the little girl suddenly interrupted.

When an old couple heard their little daughter interrupt, their faces changed. The old woman pulled the little girl in front of her and scolded her, "What are you talking about?" Don't let the mage see the joke.

The little girl's arm may have been pulled and hurt by her mother, and she said with tears aggrievedly, "I'm not talking nonsense. My brother is a great hero!" My brother is not dead!"

When the old man saw that his little daughter was still stubborn, he explained directly to Nan Ye: "This child is very close to his death brother. I can't bear to tell her the truth for fear that she will be sad. I didn't expect the child's family to be so ignorant that the mage laughed.

Nan Ye shook his head and said, "It's nothing! My condolences to the two elders. If there is anything difficult at home, you might as well go to the Assassin's House to find me. This Assassin will never let the sacrificed soldiers shed blood and tears.

The old man was moved when he heard the words and said, "The mage is so kind to me that I can close my eyes even if I know it."

Nan Ye nodded. Seeing that the little girl was still being scolded by her mother, he came forward to protect the little girl and said to the old woman, "Don't scold her."

When the old woman saw that Nan Ye protected her daughter, how dare she scolded the assassin and retreated. The little girl saw someone protecting her more vigorously. She pulled Nan Ye's clothes and cried, "I didn't lie. My brother didn't die. I just went to my uncle's house to recover from the injury. I went to visit my brother the day before yesterday.
