Chapter 294 Mrs. Huo

Although she is Mrs. Huo, she was also arranged by Li Yunsheng to come to Huo's residence.

Therefore, when she saw Li Yunsheng's name, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

I always feel that Li Dang is going to arrange for her to do something.

In fact, she has complicated feelings about Huo Dingwen.

She was the one who fell into the abyss, but it was Huo Dingwen who rescued her.

However, it was Cui Yan who instructed her to approach Huo Dingwen.

Once the minister's house was ransacked, if not the whole family, the family members would be sent to the Jiaofang Division.

To put it bluntly, the people who are received are either rich or expensive.

To put it bluntly, it is an official brothel, a place for pleasure.

And she, from a young lady of an official family, was once reduced to a prostitute of the Jiaofang Secretary.

She could never forget the day when Cui Yan entered the Jiaofang Division and asked her by name.

But the two of them were alone in the room, just when she thought the other party wanted it, Cui Yan nodded in satisfaction and said something that made her puzzled.

'It is indeed suitable to be Mrs. Huo. '

At that time, she didn't know that there was an official from Weidi in the capital named Huo Dingwen.

Until under Cui Yan's arrangement, she ran into this man in front of her.

And Huo Dingwen was also the only man who didn't look at her like a prostitute.

It can be said that the two fell in love at first sight. Under Cui Yan's arrangement, her registration was very easy.

After leaving the prostitution, she married into the Huo Mansion and became Mrs. Huo.

She knew that Cui Yan was a member of the Li Party, and the leader of the Li Party was the name on the envelope—Li Yunsheng.

After getting along for this period of time, she found that she really liked Huo Dingwen.

However, she also had to admit that she approached Huo Dingwen at the beginning just to get registered.

Moreover, under Cui Yan's coercion, she did many things behind Huo Dingwen's back.

Even if she found out that she liked Huo Dingwen, it was too late to stop.

Cui Yan held onto her handle, as long as he didn't obey her words, he might return to that dark place again.

"Ma'am, what's the matter with you?"

The reason why Huo Dingwen showed her the letter was because she was the daughter of an official family.

He knows more about the officialdom than Huo Dingwen, the minister.

But what Huo Dingwen didn't expect was that she was so frightened just by looking at the envelope.

After recovering from Madam Huo, she never focused on the letter.

But after seeing the contents of the letter, she let out a cry of surprise and pressed the letter to her chest.

"Is this letter written by Li Yunsheng to you?"

Huo Dingwen shook his head: "Although it's Li Yunsheng's name, it's not his handwriting."

As soon as she heard that it was not Li Yunsheng's handwriting, Mrs. Huo understood.

This letter was not directed at her by Li Dang's people, but by Huo Dingwen.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm worrying too, it's public—"

Before Huo Dingwen finished speaking, Mrs. Huo immediately interrupted him.

"Absolutely not!"

"I know this is a bad idea, so I'm hesitating whether to report it to His Majesty in private so that His Majesty can make up his mind."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Huo couldn't help sighing in her heart: Could it be that all the upright officials in the world are elm-headed?
"It's even more impossible!"

"Why doesn't this work?"

Huo Dingwen was a little puzzled, and he didn't make this matter public, nor did he hide it.

In his opinion, reporting in private is the best solution.

"Once you say this in front of His Majesty, it will be no different from making it public.

Moreover, if you tell His Majesty, only you and Your Majesty will know about this matter. If the news spreads in the future, who will spread it? "

Mrs. Huo pointed to the tip of Huo Dingwen's nose.

"The first person His Majesty suspects is you."

Huo Dingwen argued.

"But this letter was given to me by someone else, and I'm just reporting it as it is.

Even if it spreads in the future, it may be spread by the person who wrote me the letter. "

"What evidence is there that this was written to you by someone else?"

"This—I—"

Huo Dingwen pointed to the letter, but was speechless.

Indeed, even if he took out this letter, His Majesty would think that it was written by him, with the purpose of extracting himself.

Therefore, once the empress was told about this, it would be his fault if the news leaked in the future.

Moreover, this letter was indeed written by someone else. Once he told the Empress privately, the person who sent the letter would very likely release the news.

He couldn't help but start to feel a little annoyed, who on earth set him up for such a trick.

If his wife hadn't reminded him, he might have really slipped into the trap.

"What's your idea?"

Mrs. Huo took the letter in her hand and carefully glanced at it again.

Then she glanced at the memorial on the table, the memorial was still open, so she saw the word impeachment at a glance.

Mrs. Huo asked seemingly casually.

"What is written in your husband's memorial, can I have a look?"

Huo Dingwen hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the memorial and handed it to his wife.

"Tomorrow I will go to the memorial to impeach these corrupt officials who broke the law."

Mrs. Huo quickly saw something was wrong.

"As far as I know, all the people you want to impeach are officials of the Li Party."

"Madam can tell at a glance that this is His Majesty's intention.

In order to rectify the administration of officials, His Majesty specially sent someone to bring me evidence of these people's corruption. "

"I'm afraid, it's not the officials that His Majesty wants to rectify, but people like Li Dang."

"How is it possible!" Huo Dingwen picked up the list of personnel on the side, "There is evidence of their corruption."

"But haven't you noticed, these are all from Li Dang."

At this time, Huo Dingwen hadn't realized the real intention of the Empress.

"That's right, Li Yunsheng is the number one corrupt official in the world, and of course everyone in the Li Party is a corrupt official."

"Could it be that, except for Li Dang, everyone else is an upright official?"

Mrs. Huo's question made him speechless, and it was really impossible to think about it carefully.

If it was said that all the royalists were honest officials, he would not believe it.

"Others, that's, that's His Majesty's people, maybe His Majesty doesn't want to touch them yet."

Huo Dingwen didn't have the confidence to say this, so his voice became smaller and smaller.

Mrs. Huo showed a gentle smile.

"So, rather than saying that His Majesty wants to rectify the administration of officials, it is better to say that His Majesty only wants to rectify the Li Party members.

Moreover, these seem to be officials who have not resigned from His Majesty. "

After staying with Huo Dingwen for a long time, she became more sensitive to official affairs.

Moreover, all the original servants and six books of Shangshu that she knew were not on this list.

Huo Dingwen didn't want to get entangled in this matter.

"Anyway, they are all corrupt officials, and if one can be caught, there will be one less.

You haven't said, what should I do with this letter? "

Mrs. Huo put the memorial and the letter on the table.

"Let the head of Baique nunnery report to Jingzhao Yin's mansion that the late emperor's concubine is missing."
