Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 264 Faction
Ruolan has been working hard to make up for the afternoon's work.

When she saw Liu Tiankuo walking this way at the gate of the courtyard, she hurriedly turned around and ran into the inner room to inform Jiang Zhixia that Uncle Xia was back.

Jiang Zhixia stood up, looked at the clock, and calculated the time, and it was almost nine o'clock.

"Why is it so late today? Have you had dinner yet?" Jiang Zhixia hurriedly asked Liu Tiankuo.

"I stuffed it indiscriminately. Let the small kitchen cook me a bowl of noodles." Although Liu Tiankuo looked tired, he still said to Jiang Zhixia with a smile.

Jiang Zhixia naturally asked Liu Tiankuo to wash the noodles with warm water, and asked the small kitchen to cook the noodles quickly.

She hurriedly went to the closet to get a replacement of home-made clothes and handed them to Liu Tiankuo.

Liu Tiankuo went behind the screen, changed into homely clothes, came out, washed his face, and took a sip of hot tea.

"In this weather, it's time to drink something cold." Liu Tiankuo said with disgust.

Now it is mid-April and it is summer. Although it is not very hot, drinking hot tea is not as pleasant as drinking cold tea.

"You should keep in good health. You've got injuries all over your body." Jiang Zhixia said angrily.

After all, Liu Tiankuo fought on the battlefield before, and suffered a lot of injuries, large and small.

Seeing Chu Xiong's body hurt frequently, Jiang Zhixia could only take advantage of Liu Tiankuo's youth and quickly raise him.

After hearing Jiang Zhixia's words, Liu Tiankuo had no choice but to remain silent.

After eating noodles, taking a bath, and dismissing all the servants, the husband and wife have time to talk in detail.

"Why is it so late today? According to you, it doesn't look like the emperor asked you to eat?" Jiang Zhixia asked.

When Liu Tiankuo returned late, most of them were left behind by the emperor.

At that time, the emperor would naturally give food, so he couldn't just stuff it indiscriminately.

"Well, today is considered a normal off-duty. Although it is a little late, it is not long. It is just that the men who went to inquire about the news came back to me. I went to listen and deal with some things by the way."

Liu Tiankuo said lightly.

The matter dealt with has nothing to do with Zhixia, so there is no need to talk about it.

It can be said that it is related to Zhixia.

"I know all the news that your envoy Song He told me today. I arranged for people to investigate in the afternoon, and went to implement it in the evening. Madam Lu doesn't need to think about it. This Lord Lu is the second prince. One faction."

Liu Tiankuo said lightly, but his eyes sank deeply.

Mr. Lu is hiding deeply.

Before, it was only known that he was promoted by a staff member in Prince Zhong's mansion, but he was not known to be the grandfather of the second prince.

It's just that I don't know if the Zhongwang Mansion knows about this situation?

If you don't know, you can sell favors. . .

Although the position of patrolling guards is important, its rank is not considered high.It's just a small official of the fifth rank.

Therefore, everyone didn't pay much attention to it before.

If Mrs. Lu hadn't brought Grandma Li here today, he would have sent someone to investigate, but he would not have known that Mrs. Lu belonged to the second prince.

However, Mrs. Lu probably didn't know about Mrs. Lu's appearance today, right?It is estimated that he will also blame Mrs. Lu.

However, he had already thought out what to say to Mr. Lu, so it must be that Mrs. Lu was familiar with Grandma Li in her boudoir, right?

That's right, Mrs. Lu's natal family, Grandma Li's natal family, and Mrs. Lu all belong to the second prince's faction.

No wonder they are so familiar.

Jiang Zhixia was extremely surprised when he heard this.

The second prince seems to be only ten years old now, right?Started forming cliques at the age of ten?

"As a prince, if you have that kind of thought, you will start forming cliques after birth. They are young, but the people behind them are not young." Liu Tiankuo said coldly.

In any case, he is an undisputed descendant, belonging to the faction of the first prince, this is a natural relationship.

There is no way to remove it.

Jiang Zhixia couldn't help clicking her tongue.

This is really, a simple life, no house fights, no palace fights, are you going to start seizing the heir?

Bah, now that you have a son, what do you want to win.They are more or less protectors.

"Since Mr. Lu is confirmed to belong to the Second Prince, it would be inappropriate for him to occupy this seat."

Liu Tiankuo looked at Jiang Zhixia's surprised expression, but said in a deep voice.

"You also understand the importance of patrolling the city guard. Now Master Lu is not only someone we cannot win over, but also someone we are against. Naturally, we can no longer use this position. We must replace this position with our own people."

Seeing Jiang Zhixia nodding his head in understanding, Liu Tiankuo laughed.

"However, it's hard to say who to change now. When I go to see my father tomorrow, I will have a detailed chat with him."

Liu Tiankuo said in a deep voice.

Naturally, Jiang Zhixia didn't ask any more questions, since she didn't understand the affairs of the court anyway.

"You know what Grandma Li told me, right?"

Now that Mr. Lu's topic was over, she talked about Grandma Li who came to intercede today.

Liu Tiankuo nodded, and was about to speak, but was stopped by Jiang Zhixia.

Jiang Zhixia told the story of Grandma Li's begging Ruolan for her kindness again.

"Now I find that the Tian family is almost insane. The previous lady of the Tian family used to ask for favors in order to buy the farm. Today, she used this method on a servant. A decent official lady , how could you ask a servant to go there?"

Jiang Zhixia sighed.

Today's Miss Guanjia really wants to save face.

Not only the lady from the official family, but even the males from the official family want to save face.

If not, why would Grandma Li have to sell the dowry farm and use the money to support her natal family?

Isn't it a group of scholars who don't work hard and don't know the grain, and don't want to think of other ways to make money?
"The Tian family is a well-known scholarly family in Linzhou. They are indeed the best at reading. It's no wonder they are in a hurry if they can't take the imperial examination for three dynasties."

Liu Tiankuo said with a half-smile.

He is indeed the best at reading, and he knows nothing but reading.

Today's Tian family basically spends money from the women's families.

It is also the general who ransacked the house and was soft-hearted.When the house was ransacked, it was up to you how much the female relatives could carry with you, but you didn't go for a body search.

That's why the women of the Tian family brought a lot of banknotes and jewelry.

That's it, the men of Tian's family still sit at home and study, but let the women's family members in the capital run around, trying to find a way for them to fail the imperial examination for three dynasties.

"About his family's affairs, you can ask Ruolan to reply to Grandma Li later, and say that she has already asked me, and I will also go around and ask the emperor." Liu Tiankuo said after pondering for a while.

"You want to intercede for them?" Jiang Zhixia stared in surprise and asked, "Do you want them to be used by you?".

"Tch, what's the use of those pedantic scholars?" Liu Tiankuo said with disgust.

Seeing that Jiang Zhixia was puzzled, he explained: "I saw that the emperor felt a little regretful when he mentioned the Tian family for a while. It is estimated that someone from the second prince's side has blown the wind. After all, the punishment for scholars is generally three generations. No imperial examinations are allowed, how can there be three dynasties for so long? If not, the emperor will really change his mind and become three generations. I might as well join in the fun. I will see whose favor the Tian family will remember. I'm on the side of the Second Prince."

Don't you want to pick up the old one and use it again?
I won't let you pick it up, I don't use it rarely, and I don't throw it to you.

　In the city where the author lives, the epidemic has improved.

　　But it hurts to see more cities getting sick.I hope that the epidemic will dissipate soon and our normal life will resume.
