Chapter 85: Jia Yucun's Staged Shift in Politics in Yamen and Sun Shaozong Heard Good News at Home

Initially, Sun Shaozong thought Wang Xifeng would definitely encounter another nail with Jia Yucun.

However, facts have proved that he still underestimated Jia Yucun's political skills!

Two days later, Liu Chongshan, who was in the middle of treatment, dragged his sick body to the government office and removed Yu Tianbao's name from the "autumn execution list".

Everyone thought that he had received great benefits from the Yu family. Only Sun Shaozong vaguely guessed that Liu Zhizhong was dragged into the "Boat of the Rongguo Mansion" by Jia Yucun!

Since then, Jia Yucun's influence in the government has completely overwhelmed Han Anbang, the Governor of the government. Moreover, Governor Han of the government did not know that Liu Zhizhong had betrayed him and even cheered for him to rally.

Not to mention how the Infernal Affairs of the government were staged.

Sun Shaozong endured another six or seven days, and Wanping County finally handed in its "autumn execution list.” He spent another two days reviewing the list, and then hurriedly submitted it to the Ministry of Justice.

He then asked Cheng Rixing to write two notices, one on the bulletin board of the government office and the other on the door of the Sun's Mansion, so that those complaining about their grievances could be completely put out of their minds.

However, when Sun Shaozong returned home with the notice, he found that there were no people outside the gate, and even the umbrella had disappeared.

In the beginning, Sun Shaozong thought that those who had been wronged had gotten the news, so they left on their own.

But after entering the door, he found that the six umbrellas were all piled up in the corner, and they were smashed by people!

"Liu Quan, come here!"

He shouted out to the gatekeeper at the top of his voice. Just as he was about to ask what had happened, he saw that Liu Quan's face was red with palm prints. He frowned and asked, "Were you beaten by the Big Master?"

This "Big Master" naturally refers to Sun Shaozu, his elder brother.

He destroyed the umbrellas and slapped Liu Quan. If it had been done by an outsider, there would have been a lot of trouble in the mansion. Thus, it must have been Sun Shaozu's actions.

Liu Quan shrunk his neck and said with a bitter face, "I don't know why the Big Master got angry today. When he came back, he drove all those who were complaining away. I went up to persuade a few words, and then I was slapped by the Big Master."

Tch!

Last month, the competition for Commander failed. When he lost to Wei Rusong, the elder brother of King Beijing, he didn't see Sun Shaozu lose his temper. What's wrong with him today?

He threw the notice to Liu Quan and asked him to post it outside the gate so that those who complained of injustice would not return. Sun Shaozong went to the residence of his elder brother to see what stimulation he had received.

When he reached the backyard, he heard the hustle and bustle inside.

Sun Shaozong hurriedly opened the courtyard door and went in. Originally, he intended to go straight to the main room, but when he saw the scene in the courtyard, he was shocked.

He saw seven or eight concubines kneeling on the ground in a disorderly manner. All of them were trembling and looking worried. Several of them were even disheveled, revealing a large area of pink skin.

Even if he wants to find someone to vent his anger on, he won't call all his concubines together, won’t he?

Is it because the stimulation he was experiencing today was related to women?

Seeing Sun Shaozong come in, those disheveled concubines hurried to cover their bodies with their sleeves. The remaining concubines were overjoyed. Although they dared not get up to greet Sun Shaozong, they were all looking at Sun Shaozong eagerly, full of expectations.

After all, they were the concubines of his elder brother. Sun Shaozong didn't have a good response. He just nodded at them and hurried into the main room in the north.

The living room was a mess. Not only were countless pieces of porcelain broken, but nearly half of the wooden furniture was damaged. At this time, Sun Shaozu was carrying two copper candlesticks and smashing them like a pair of hammers.

Sun Shaozong smiled and joked, "What kind of routine is this, Brother? Do you plan to use double hammers in the future?"

When Sun Shaozu saw that it was Sun Shaozong who had come, he stopped and threw the two copper candlesticks to the ground. He said in a muffled voice, "Why are you here?"

"You chased away all those who complained of injustice, how can I not come and see what is going on?" Sun Shaozong complained half truly, "What good timing, Brother. You neither catch up early nor late. Unfortunately, I just submitted the list today, and you started to chase them away!"

As the saying goes, “Only relying on brine can it hold the tofu pieces together, everything has its vanquisher." Sun Shaozu was like a tyrant at home. He has always been the main decision-maker, and no one can question him. The only exception was Sun Shaozong, his younger brother.

Hearing Sun Shaozong's tone of voice, he immediately suppressed most of his anger, scratched his head, and said with a smile, "This... This... You know, when I get angry, I don't care about anything. I didn’t mean to damage your reputation."

"We are brothers of blood, is there anything about doing it intentionally or not?" Sun Shaozong waved his hand and said without taking it to heart, "What happened to you today, Brother? What made you so angry?"

If he doesn’t mention it, that’s fine. However, once mentioned, Sun Shaozu's chest heaved like a bellow when he raised it. He gnashed his teeth and cursed, "It's Wei Rusong, the son of a bitch! General Feng holds a wine banquet today, and Wei Rusong said in front of everyone that... That I'm a man with no child!"

Just this?

Sun Shaozong was speechless, "You are a recognized General in the patrol camp. With his empty words, it can't hurt that hair of yours. Why are you so angry?"

"That's not what he said!"

It seemed that Sun Shaozu could hardly speak. He paced back and forth for a few steps before he stamped his foot fiercely and said with hatred, "What that son of a bitch means is that... That I can't have a son!"

Tch!

No wonder.

Sun Shaozong was a child who was born when their parents were old. He’s 16 years younger than his elder brother. He’s now 20 years old, which means that Sun Shaozu’s already 36 years old.

Seeing that he was going to be in his forties soon, there was still no child under his knee.

If he was someone who’s not into women, it's all right. But he was a hungry ghost with tons of beauty beside him. Almost all the beauties in his family have been touched, but he still has no harvest.

If he was not in a hurry, he must be lying with his eyes open.

Therefore, in recent years, this matter has become Sun Shaozu's untouchable scale. This time, he was ridiculed by his competitors in front of his colleagues and superiors. It was not surprising that he would be furious.

As he spoke, Sun Shaozu's anger flared up again. He walked a few steps to the door, pointed to the outside, and cursed, "What's the use of raising these naughty hooves who can't lay eggs? I'll just sell them all to the kiln tomorrow!"

Before the words were heard, there was a cry outside.

Sun Shaozong had no choice but to go forward and console. "You are currently at your prime age, Brother. It’s not like you are incapable of doing it. Who knows that the time will come..."

"Second Master, Second Master, great joy, Second Master!"

Just as he was saying this, Wei Licai, the old housekeeper, rushed into the courtyard and shouted at the top of his voice, "Concubine Ruan has just been diagnosed to be pregnant. We have a future for the Sun's family!"
