As soon as Han Yuxi said these words, she completely turned the passive situation into an active one. If Li Zexuan were here, he would definitely give his wife thirty-two likes~!
"Every family can get ten dollars every year~?"
When everyone below heard Han Yuxi's words, they couldn't help but start whispering among themselves. Most of them came here to seek money. Now that Han Yuxi has given such a generous pension and compensation package, almost no one is dissatisfied.
"Master Li is so grand~! This is really a big deal~!"
"Yes~! Each family has ten guan per year, which is enough to live on no matter what~!"
"Tsk tsk~! Just based on this condition, I want to work for Lord Li~!"
"Haha~! I just said that Lord Li is kind-hearted and would not do such unconscionable things~! How about~? I am right~? You are the only one who insists on making fun~!"
"Yes, yes, you are right, Boss Mao~! We are the ones who are indiscriminate~! My lord and lady, we all can't help you~!"
"Yes~! Madam, we can't help you~! We shouldn't follow in the booing~!"
Not only the widows of the martyrs, but also the surrounding onlookers felt that the compensation and pension plan offered by the Li family was very generous, and some people even wished they could replace it with their own lives. Han Yuxi turned retreat into advancement, turned passivity into initiative, and instantly changed the unfavorable situation. Turned back.
When Jiang Cuihua in the crowd saw this, her face became extremely ugly. Now she and this group of women had indeed achieved their goal of asking the Li family for money, but the Li family took the initiative to give it and they took the initiative to ask for it. These are two completely different things. Different concepts, Han Yuxi completely broke her planned plan - to completely ruin Li Zexuan's reputation in the name of asking for money~!
However, now just looking at the reactions of the people around him, we know that Li Zexuan not only did not get a bad reputation, but also gained a good reputation as a benevolent and righteous person.
"Haha~! Your Majesty and Madam are really kind and righteous, but I don't know how long the Li family can give them these ten dollars a year~?"
The more Jiang Cuihua thought about it, the angrier she became. Suddenly she thought of a flaw and asked aloud.
When she thought about it, if each family had ten guan per year, more than 200 guan would be more than 2,000 guan. She didn't believe that the Li family was willing to maintain such a large amount of expenditure for a long time.
The coldness in Han Yuxi's eyes flashed away. The Jiang Cuihua in front of her was polite on the surface, but her words were directed at the Li family. This made her somewhat sulky. She glanced at Jiang Cuihua thoughtfully, and then said:
"Aunt Jiang, that's a good question~! My Li family plans to provide each family with a pension of ten guan per year for fifty years~! A total of one hundred and seventy-seven thousand five hundred guan~! Within half a year, I and I My husband will raise this money in one lump sum and hand it over to the court, and the Ministry of Household Affairs will distribute it to you all every year~! In this way, no matter whether our Li family is poor or rich fifty years from now, the pensions for the families of all the soldiers and soldiers will be provided. There will be no shortage of money~!”
After learning the new arithmetic for so long, Han Yuxi almost effortlessly calculated the total pension of the 215 martyrs over fifty years. When the onlookers heard this, there was a commotion immediately. Although they thought the ten guan was too much, it was still within the acceptable range. Now they heard that the Li family was going to spend hundreds of thousands of guan all at once. This was really disappointing. They opened their eyes~!
"Okay~! Lord Li is awesome~! Madame Li is awesome~!"
"What a turtle~! More than 100,000 swords~! Lord Li is so benevolent and righteous~!"
"Yes~! Today these women are blocking the door of Li's house to make trouble. It's really too much~! Fortunately, the lord and lady are magnanimous. Not only do they not care about it, but they can also repay evil with kindness. It is really rare~!"
"Yeah~! That's right~!"
………………………………
Under Han Yuxi's step-by-step offensive, the balance of victory has begun to tilt towards the Li family. The widows of the martyrs in the field were pointed at by the people around them, and many people did not dare to raise their heads and look at Han Yuxi again.
A person has a face, and a tree has a bark!
In fact, most of them don't have that much hatred towards Li Zexuan and the Li family. The main reason is that Jiang Cuihua used some bewitching words to trick them into making trouble. Now in front of the Li Mansion, Han Yuxi not only did not say anything bad to them Xiang Xiang, gave them a cold drink of Gentle Countryside and a clean, soft mat to sit on, which immediately relieved the hostility in their hearts a lot.
In the end, Han Yuxi didn't need to talk to them, but took the initiative to give such a generous pension plan. While they were satisfied, they also felt a lot more guilty. They always felt that they were the villain in this matter.
"Madam and Lord are kind and righteous, but my family doesn't want money. I just want my husband's bones. I beg Madam and Lord to help me~!"
Just when Han Yuxi thought the matter was about to be resolved satisfactorily, she saw a delicate-looking woman in mourning clothes standing up and saying.
"Yes, yes, yes~! Madam, during this battle at Snake Spirit Mountain, why didn't the Ministry of War send back the bodies of the soldiers~! You said they were so sad that they didn't see the dead bodies~!"
Jiang Cuihua's eyes lit up and she quickly jumped out and followed.
"Hmph~!"
Han Yuxi's face turned cold and she said coldly to Jiang Cuihua: "I wonder if among the 215 soldiers who died in battle, are there any family members of yours, Aunt Jiang~?"
Jiang Cuihua's old face darkened and she said weakly: "This...ahem...it doesn't happen~!"
"If not, then why is Aunt Jiang more anxious than these parties~? Can I understand that these people are all instigated by Aunt Jiang to ruin the reputation of our Li family~?"
Han Yuxi, who had been speaking softly before, suddenly became stern, and her pretty face was filled with dark clouds.
Jiang Cuihua panicked, but she was an old Jianghu after all. After taking a few breaths, she hurriedly defended:
"What the lord and lady said is wrong~! Justice lies in people's hearts. I, Jiang Cuihua, saw that they were pitiful for those who lost their husbands, so I stood up and said a few words to help. Why did I encourage them to ruin your family's reputation~? I Call me anxious and righteous~!"
"Haha~! Impatient and righteous~?"
Han Yuxi sneered, then walked up to the pretty woman in white who had stood up earlier, and asked softly: "Dare I ask my sister's name~?"
The pretty woman Yingying bowed and replied: "I am Xia Wanqing, and my husband Zhao Siwei is the lieutenant of the Forbidden Army and the captain of the personal guard of General Dugu~!"
Han Yuxi was slightly shocked. The night before yesterday, Li Zexuan briefly introduced her to the battle on Sheling Mountain. At the last moment, Zhao Siwei took the remaining imperial guards and spared Li Zexuan, Duguxin and others with their lives. Han Yuxi deeply remembered the opportunity to retreat.
