Chapter 252: When its over, brush off your clothes and go away, hiding your merits and fame

"Well, what's the matter?" Jiang Hao asked casually.

"All safe."

Jiang Hao walked around the city gate and looked at the dark night outside. He didn't know where Wang Yangming's men were hiding, but he knew that it would be very lively tonight.

Jiang Hao said to the captain guarding the gate: "I have received an order. At about midnight tonight, one of the prince's grain transport troops will come over to carry grain for the front. I will guard here and cannot delay the prince's important event."

When the captain heard this, he immediately said: "Your Excellency, you are really attentive."

Jiang Hao sighed, "You can't be careless. Your Majesty is sending troops in the front, and tens of thousands of troops are eating, drinking, sleeping, sleeping. I have to ensure the supply in the rear. I have a heavy responsibility."

"Yes, thank you for your hard work, sir." The captain guarding the gate immediately flattered him.

When midnight arrived, the captain guarding the gate suddenly said: "Sir, look at the people coming with torches in the distance. Are they the food transport team?"

When the army came to the city, there were about five or six hundred people. When Jiang Hao saw the people coming, he immediately said: "It must be one of our own. How could the enemy dare to be so blatant?"

"Yes, sir, you are right."

"Why are you still waiting? Hurry up and ask people to open the city gate." Jiang Hao said.

The captain who guarded the gate immediately went down and ordered people to open the city gate. The team entered the city in a hurry. After approaching the gatekeeper, someone suddenly shouted, "Control them all."

The steel knives and spears in the hands of these people were immediately pointed at the guard soldiers. They were so frightened that they did not dare to move. The guard captain also said in a daze: "We are all our own people, what are you going to do?"

"Hey hey hey, what are you guys? We are Lord Wang Yangming's soldiers and we are here to destroy the rebellious officials and traitors."

The east city gate opened and Nanchang City was defeated. Wang Yangming captured Nanchang City without spending a single soldier. At the top of the city, Jiang Hao met Wang Yangming again.

"I've met Mr. Yangming." Jiang Hao saluted.

Wang Yangming looked at Jiang Hao and said: "The previous intelligence allowed the court to respond in time and stop Prince Ning's rebels in Anqing. You are also the first to capture Nanchang City this time. Your contribution will be rewarded by the court, so stay here

By my side, come and kill the enemy with me."

Jiang Hao smiled faintly, "My lord, now that Prince Ning is in a dead end, with your ability, it will not be easy to destroy Prince Ning."

"When I did this, I never thought about the reward from the court. I just hope that you can explain it clearly to the court and Your Majesty, so that I will not become a rebel."

"As for the future, if I want fame, I will take the exam myself. I stay here just to say goodbye to you. I plan to go to Huguang to reunite with my family."

After Jiang Hao finished speaking, he raised his hand and saluted Wang Yangming, then turned and left, mounted his horse outside the city, and quickly disappeared into the night.

Wang Yangming looked at Jiang Hao's disappearing back and said calmly, "When it's over, go away and hide your merits and fame. Although he is a scholar, he is also an outstanding and righteous man."

...

Jiang Hao galloped on his horse, and it took him an hour to catch up with Fu Bo and his team, and then continued on the road. Jiangxi was a mess right now, and the sooner they left, the better.

The carriage shook and the wheels made a creaking sound. It was already getting brighter and several women were woken up. Min'er rubbed her swollen head and wondered where she was.

Mu Xue next to her was also confused, "Sister Min'er, why are we in the car? Where are we going?"

The little girl Yun'er next to her said tremblingly: "Miss, we are not being kidnapped by others and they want to sell us to other places."

Min'er glared at her maid, "Don't talk nonsense."

Opening the car curtain, they found a figure outside, who was a servant of the Jiang family. This immediately reassured the girls. When the servant saw the car curtain lifted, he immediately went to report it to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao then waved his hand and ordered the convoy to stop.

.

The four women got off the car. Jiang Hao came over on horseback, stepped off the horse, and walked to the women. The women immediately saluted, and Min'er asked: "Mr. Lang, where are we going?"

Jiang Hao waved his hand to the surrounding servants to disperse, and looked at the girls with deep eyes. The girls looked a little uneasy when Jiang Hao looked at them. Jiang Hao then said: "King Ning has been defeated. At this moment, Nanchang City has been controlled by the imperial army.

I believe that in a few days, Prince Ning will kill him."

The girls were all shocked when they heard what Jiang Hao said, but no one dared to say anything.

Jiang Hao continued: "I know that you all took orders from Prince Ning before and served me to monitor me."

The faces of the women immediately turned pale.

Justify?

With Jiang Hao's intelligence, lying is useless.

The women were already thinking about how miserable they might be treated next.

But what Jiang Hao said next surprised the girls.

"But don't worry, I know you are also forced to have no choice. It may not be a bad thing for you if Prince Ning is finished. Now that you are free, you no longer have to do things for Prince Ning in the future."

"Although you were ordered to monitor me, you have served me for more than a year. I will not make it difficult for you. I will give you a sum of money. This money will be enough for you to live peacefully for the rest of your life."

Min'er and Mu Xue looked at each other and suddenly knelt down together. The two little maids behind them quickly followed suit.

Min'er begged: "Sir, we did things before just to survive. We are rootless and we can't go anywhere. Please don't drive us away. We are willing to stay with you as slaves and maids."

Mu Xue looked at Jiang Hao with her beautiful eyes, tears welling up in her eyes, "In the troubled times outside, how can we single women survive? Young Master, our slave family only wants a place to stay. From now on, we will only serve the Young Master wholeheartedly and will never have other thoughts.

"

Looking at the two women who couldn't stop crying, Jiang Hao was helpless. Even in modern society, it is very difficult for a single woman to live in society. What's more, it is the Ming Dynasty. The two of them went out alone and had no ability to protect themselves.

If you don't use it, it will be eaten clean by others.

"That's alright, you just follow me first, but my wife will decide whether you will stay or go, so get up." Jiang Hao said.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! If you don’t drive them away directly, there is room for change. From the mistress’ side, you can just ask for it when the time comes. As for the possibility of being beaten and scolded by the mistress, not all concubines

So alive?

The girls got on the bus and the team set off again. The motorcade headed all the way to Huguang. The ancient road was difficult to navigate and the speed was maddeningly slow. There were also traffic jams everywhere. Fortunately, Jiang Hao had the status of a civil servant. No one dared to stop him after showing his credentials.

.

In this way, after walking for about half a month, the convoy finally arrived at Anlu Mansion. Jiang Hao knew the location of the Tie family through previous communication. He found an idle man in the city and gave him half a tael of silver to lead the way. Soon he arrived at the gate of the Tie family.

outside.

A nice high-gate house, no less generous than the Tie family's previous courtyard in Nanchang City. The servant came up to call the door. The servant who opened the door seemed to know someone. Isn't this my uncle's servant? Then I looked at the servant standing at the door.

Jiang Hao immediately stepped forward to salute and shouted in surprise, "Uncle, uncle, you are here."

After saying this, the guy immediately turned around and ran inside, "Master, Miss, my uncle is here, my uncle is here."

The Tie family suddenly became lively. Tie Yuxiang was the first to run out. After seeing Jiang Hao, she threw herself into Jiang Hao's arms and looked at Jiang Hao with tears in her eyes. "Husband, you are finally here. I heard about the chaos in Jiangxi these days.

I am worried every day, it will be nice to see you."

Jiang Hao patted his wife on the back and said with a smile: "Your husband is a very smart man, how could something happen? Well, this is outside, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Only then did Tie Yuxiang react, her face flushed with embarrassment, and she immediately let go of Jiang Hao. Her servants arranged for the Jiang family's motorcade to enter through the back door. Jiang Hao and Tie Yuxiang went to the front hall to meet their father-in-law, Taoist Tie Fei.

Taoist Tie Fei looked Jiang Hao up and down and kept nodding, "I heard that Prince Ning was rebelling a few days ago. I was very worried. Just come over. By the way, how are things going over there?"

Jiang Hao spread his hands, "I don't know now. That day I led Wang Yangming's army into the city. After handing over Nanchang City to Lord Wang, I took my family and left directly. But thinking about it, King Ning was destroyed in these few days.

It’s something about that.”

Taoist Tie Fei nodded, "You are tired from traveling, so let Yuxiang take you to wash up first, and then I will help you wash away the dust during the dinner."

"Thank you, father-in-law."

In the bathroom, Tie Yuxiang looked at Jiang Hao, her eyes full of tenderness, and she couldn't bear to look away for a second. The servant heated up the water in the pool, and Tie Yuxiang said softly: "Husband, let me help you take off your clothes."
