Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

In the royal house, all the masters and servants of the royal family kneeled on the stone road in the front yard, and the father-in-law with the imperial decree stood on the high stone steps, announcing the new emperor's will.The kneeling Mrs. Wang almost fainted after hearing this. The master had already guessed that the new emperor would take the throne. He was afraid that he would not be able to tolerate the chancellor standing up to the crown prince. He had already planned to resign and return to his hometown for retirement, but it was still a step too late.

After hearing the imperial decree, Tian Ding only had one thought. Being an ancient man is really tiring, and the imperial power is really supreme. No wonder everyone wants to be an emperor. If the prime minister is not pleasing to the eye, there will be officials involved. If you don’t let him die, it will be the opposite. Let people be grateful to Dade.As his mother kowtowed to the imperial decree, he wanted to thank the new emperor, and at least spared the lives of his family.

The father-in-law who announced the decree waved his hand, and a group of people came in, including eunuchs and a group with weapons. I don't know if they were soldiers or guards in the palace.After a while, the officers and soldiers moved out a lot of things, most of which were books, followed by cloth, women's jewelry, high-quality furniture, and a few land deeds and bank notes. The scattered money was not taken away, the father-in-law looked at it The amount on the bank note is too small.Mr. Wang is the current prime minister, why is there only so little money?The Wang family hid it privately?Have a secret room?It seems unlikely that the people who followed him to raid the house were the owners who ransacked the house. Didn’t they go back to talk about what they saw and heard when they ransacked the house, how many valuable things they collected, how many boxes of jewelry were sealed, and how much money they paid? How thick is the banknote alone.You can look at the thin sheets of paper in your hand.The father-in-law didn't know what to say.

Looking at the things being carried out, Tian Ding's thinking was exactly the opposite of his father-in-law's. He felt that his family was quite rich, even if his father had the word "Lian" on his head, he was still rich.Looking secretly at the elder brother, the elder brother didn't have much money marked on it originally, and the amount of money has not changed much now, and the same is true for the elder sister, but Tian Ding clearly saw the grief in his elder brother's eyes, and looked along the elder brother's line of sight, Tim Ding Wu Yes, big brother is distressed about the books that have been taken away.Tian Ding was full of questions. He felt that he didn't understand the thinking of the ancients. It was the new emperor's kindness that he didn't kill his father. If the new emperor wanted to kill, then their family would have to go to see the King of Hades.

Unconsciously, he leaned towards his mother. Looking forward to the future, Tian Ding felt a little melancholy. His home was raided and his place of living was gone. Where would they go?Home?At least they still have a place to live in their hometown and five acres of land. The family donated a few acres of tribute land to their hometown before. People in their hometown should not bully them. What they say may not be very pleasant, but most of them are not malicious. .Is such a place suitable for their family?Leaning against his mother, Tian Ding sighed silently. Fortunately, he is a child. He doesn't need to worry about such a headache, and his parents will take care of it.

The father-in-law led people to carry boxes of things one after another, and the things that could not be moved were sealed in the yard together when the door was closed.After the people left, Mrs. Wang sat on the ground with a face like a white cloth. The house was deserted. Wang Xiubai got up and came to help his mother, and Wang Xiuyun took his brother's hand. Understand that they have no home.Tian Ding just looked at his mother, there is nothing valuable at home, so he must be careful not to be taken advantage of by the servants at this moment.The eldest brother who only reads sage books can't be counted on, and the appearance of the elder sister... is not the master who can support things. I hope my father will come back soon.

Tianding completely ignored the class system of the feudal society. When servants entered the mansion to work, they basically had contracts of prostitution. The master was kind enough to pay a few dollars for wages, and he gave a great kindness for food and housing.The master has the right to sell off the servants. If the servants want to escape privately, even if they are beaten to death, no one will jump out and say something. On the contrary, they will say that the fleeing people are not blessed.It is rare for servants to take advantage of the disaster of the master's family and take away the last money.

Worryingly, Tianding stared at the gate, afraid of missing his father's return.

Mr. Wang was "sent" back by the guards. When he saw his wife after entering the door, Mr. Wang sighed and shook his head. How could the new emperor tolerate the courtiers who stood by the crown prince? The courtiers who supported the crown prince knew all about it. , but no one expected that the new emperor could not bear it even for a day.He was not the only one who was put out of office today, even the three elders in the cabinet were also put out of office.Mr. Wang has a clear conscience, but his family suffers as a result.Holding Madam's hand, even though Mrs. Wang had a thousand words, he just said, "You and the child are suffering."

"What did the master say? I married into the Wang family before the master came to Beijing..." Mrs. Wang bit her lower lip, before finishing her sentence, she continued, "How can you say bitterness now."

Mr. Wang patted his wife's hand, "It's still a master." Mr. Wang shook his head. They have to move out of the mansion today, and there are too many things to deal with.As an official, Mr. Wang has already turned cold-hearted, and Mr. Wang has no idea about the future. He just wants to go back to his hometown, at least there is a place to stay.

When his father came back, Tian Ding's tight strings were finally loosened. He leaned against his sister and fell asleep after a while. Five-year-old Tianding couldn't bear it.It's not easy to resist going to bed now.Wang Xiubo hugged his younger brother, envious of his carefree, he was able to sleep soundly after such a big incident happened at home, they were already homeless, this year's imperial examination, he was afraid that he would not be able to pass the exam, he had the name of a talented scholar, but no one. Every time he failed the imperial examinations, Mr. felt sorry for him. It was not easy to restore the prosperity of the Wang family.

Mrs. Wang and his wife are the masters of benevolence and righteousness. If they get married at the age, and those who are already married, they will return the deed to each other and give them some money, so that they can make a living by themselves, or go back to get married.But before they reached the age, let the housekeeper take them to a decent person to find a good job.No one accepted the money for those who returned the deed. When they were working in the mansion, the master and wife treated them well, never beating or scolding them, and the monthly money was enough. How could they ask for the money when the master was down and out.These people took the deeds and left quietly.

The housekeeper who was planning to go back to his hometown for the elderly did not take any money. The old man’s family went back to his hometown and traveled hundreds of miles. Money is a must.Watching the old housekeeper leave, Mr. Wang was filled with emotions, but time did not allow him to stay any longer. He took his eldest son and hurriedly got into the carriage, loaded the packed luggage into the carriage, and spread all the bedding and so on in the carriage. , to save space, and secondly, it can also reduce the bumps on the road.

From the beginning of packing, the father-in-law, who came out of nowhere, followed him all the time. The father-in-law didn't say a word, he just watched. Even when he saw something valuable, the father-in-law didn't open his mouth.The father-in-law feels that Mr. Wang is an upright official, but he speaks lightly, so he can't help Mr. Wang, so he can only take care of him at this time.

The family went out of the gate, looking back at the plaque still hanging on the palace, Mr. Wang was in a very complicated mood. He was young and successful, but he was like a short-lived epiphyllum, and his glory was short-lived.Mrs. Wang pulled her daughter and stood at the door, the corners of her eyes were moist, do you complain?Blame, but who should blame.Wang Xiubai didn't look back, he hugged his younger brother and stood beside the carriage, with his head slightly lowered, wondering what he was thinking.

"Master Wang, the city gate will be closed later." The father-in-law who followed reminded him in a low voice.

Lord Wang retracted his gaze, and took out a pendant from his sleeve, "Thank you for reminding me, Eunuch, I don't have anything to express my gratitude for now, please accept it, Eunuch."

The father-in-law hesitated for a while, and finally accepted the pendant, "If our family asks for something in the future, Mr. Wang must not forget this piece of jade."

"You should write it down." Mr. Wang cupped his hands, turned around and helped his wife into the carriage, and then handed over his youngest son and daughter to his wife's care. Before getting into the carriage, Mr. Wang saluted his father-in-law again. Afterwards, Wang Xiubai imitated his father He saluted his father-in-law and quickly got on the carriage.

The father-in-law followed the Wang family to the gate of the city, watched them leave the city, and then turned back to the palace.

After leaving the city, the carriage started running fast, and they wanted to reach the nearest landing place before dark.The carriage looked huge, but with five people sitting in it, it seemed crowded.Tian Ding was woken up by the bumping of the carriage, rubbed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the surroundings were dark, and his whole body was swaying again, so he sat up quickly, blinked his eyes, and saw the mother who was closest to him, "Mother?"

"Mother fell asleep, and Tian Ding leaned against elder brother to sleep for a while." Wang Xiubai wanted to hug his younger brother, but he refused.

Tian Ding shook his head and rubbed his eyes, looked around, and then guessed that they were leaving. He missed the last moment to say goodbye to the house before leaving, and he lived in the house for five years anyway.Nostalgia, uneasiness, and indescribable intertwined emotions, he didn't know how to describe that feeling, it was his first home after waking up, and it was also the place with the deepest memory, no matter where he went in the future, he would still love that place Will remember it well.Maybe after a few years, he will have the opportunity to return to the capital, or even to that house, but at that time he could not regain the emotion he had forgotten.

Holding his chin, after thinking about it, Tim Ding tapped his head, isn't he too artistic.Shaking his head, he threw out the sour things in his head, and crawled to his brother, "Brother, where are we going?"

"Go back to my hometown, Wangcun, Xiangcheng. My father has lived there for more than [-] years, and my elder brother was born there. There are many children in the village. Tim can play with them and grow up together." Wang Xiubai can't remember being in the village. What he was like in life, what he described was just to comfort his young brother.

"Brother, I'm afraid." Wang Xiuyun had been very silent all this time, but now she heard her elder brother talk about the days after returning to the village, so she leaned over and whispered her uneasiness in her heart.

Tian Ding looked at his father. His vigorous father looked much older at this moment. He couldn't guess what his father's plan was, so he just went back to the village. Is there any problem?Using modern thinking to analyze the brain circuits of ancient people, Tim, looking at the roof of the car, fell asleep with the shaking again and again.
