After dressing up as a vicious female supporting character, she turned into a white moonlight

Chapter 39 Raising Silver
  Fang He, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, held a jade tablet in his hand and said in a stern voice, "Today I want to report that Grand Tutor Zhang is not strict in running the family, and the daughter of the family has committed adultery with her husband, which is a violation of the ancestral precepts!"

"I am wronged!" Zhang Zhongshan was shaken, then calmed down, and said sternly, "My granddaughter was harmed by someone. Many colleagues and wives were at the scene at the time, so they should have heard about it."

"Whether he was harmed by someone is another matter. The adultery is a fact. Liu Dianyi's concubine was also caught on the spot. Moreover, if he was really harmed by someone, it further proves that Taifu Zhang's family is restless and his younger generation did not have enough education. Later, he framed others. , if all the women in my dynasty follow suit, how can the matchmaker’s words, parents’ orders, etiquette, filial piety, integrity and shame not be in reverse order?!”

Fang He and Zhang Chongshan didn't deal with him, so they naturally grabbed his pigtails and pulled him to the ground.

"Master Fang, isn't this a form of public revenge? If a servant pursues a woman in the family because of his private revenge, doesn't the whole world regard the victim's guilt as the criterion?"

Zhang Chongshan said sternly, if he was really slandered by that old man Fang He, how could he, the great master, have the dignity to behave like a human being!

Xiao Qu sneered, "Mr. Zhang said that Mr. Fang is seeking revenge? Who in Kyoto doesn't know that your feud is the result of years of grudges and has long been mixed up between public and private affairs? Don't say it with certainty. My granddaughter attended your family's banquet well, but ended up walking back with sprained feet. , why do you have the nerve to act out the injustice here!?

"You! -" Zhang Chongshan was furious. He didn't know where he offended this old madman. Why did he come out to meddle in his own business today?
  His granddaughter has a sprained foot and she has to blame him? ? ?

Why didn't he blame him for being laughed at for wearing kun pants when he was a child? ?
  Then how many unjust, false and wrongful cases should happen in front of his house! ?
  Xiao Huanshan and Xiao Huanjun sighed in tacit understanding. The father was too impulsive and the sons suffered a lot...

"I think Mrs. Zhang has nothing to do with this matter. Which family doesn't have a few incompetent juniors? Let alone the grandchildren. If the juniors make mistakes and the elders are punished, won't all generations of grandparents and grandchildren be spared?" Someone from Taifu's party stood up and spoke.

"Looking back to the past, I only heard that my father's debt was repaid by his son, and my grandfather did not come to apologize. Mr. Fang, even if he resorted to personal revenge, he would have found a suitable reason, right?"

Fang He sneered, "I have never heard of elders apologizing. However, as a tutor, Mr. Zhang has the merit of teaching His Majesty, and he is familiar with etiquette and has the intention of setting an example. If the tutor himself cannot handle family affairs well, how can he still do it?" Do you set an example?!"

Li Rongyao, the Minister of Rites, seconded the opinion, "I second the opinion, why the servants of Mr. Zhang's family would take revenge for personal gain is worth considering. If the master's family is unkind, the slaves will feel resentful! There is a saying in the "Book of Rites": In the upper position, do not bully If you are in a superior position and do not seek help from those above, if you are upright and do not seek help from others, then you will have no resentment."

"If Master Zhang is really innocent? Why is the family in chaos?" Li Rongyao quoted the contents of "Book of Rites", how many people could escape?

"Teacher Zhang should reflect on his own mistakes!" The sonorous words resounded throughout the hall!
  Yesterday, Mr. Xiao Hou said that he wanted to vent his anger on his granddaughter, so of course he had to help him.

Zhang Chongshan was so angry that he gritted his teeth. Could this group of people really want to kill him?

Yesterday, His Majesty personally bestowed the four words "The best is like water" still in my ears, but today I was knocked down by a sentence of reflection on my own mistakes?
  The entire Kyoto joke is worse than this moment!

That old guy Li Rongyao, who is related to Xiao Qu, must have colluded to make himself look embarrassed!
  Xiao Qu shook his beard and felt anxious, so what? !
  Zhang Chongshan's eldest son, Zhang Shengmin, was appointed as the third-rank minister of Guanglu Temple. He was kneeling in the main hall and trembling. "This matter is the fault of a humble minister. The children in the back house are unfilial and will damage their father's reputation. It's all because of the fault of the humble minister." , all these things happened, please forgive me!"

At the end, Liu Xianming's father Liu Dianyi also knelt down, his legs shaking uncontrollably under his official robe.

The first time he was so "dazzling" in this hall was really thanks to his good son, Liu Dianyi thought through gritted teeth.

His official position is not high, and I don’t know how that bastard of his family dares!

It’s shameless to speak loudly in the Taifu Mansion!

You don't know what's going on after you've had some wine. How dare you challenge someone's daughter to seduce him?

Don't even look at how embarrassed he is!

If he dares to do such sloppy things in Tai Tu's Mansion today, he will be so bold as to be brave tomorrow!

Go back and break his legs!
  Pei Yuning tapped the dragon chair with her fingertips and asked quietly, "Master Zhang, do you still remember the birthday gift I gave you yesterday?"

Zhang Chongshan was frightened and said, "I remember, I am ashamed of my great love for Your Majesty."

"I shouldn't talk too much about Taifu's family affairs, but it is still reasonable to follow the ancestral precepts. Taifu still needs to discipline the people in the house more, not to be disrespectful, to be thoughtful, and to calm down. Taifu should reflect on himself."

Zhang Chongshan's heart trembled, "Yes." "Although there are other hidden reasons for this matter, the rumors must be put to rest, so I punished Zhang Taifu and his son with one year's monthly salary, and Liu Dianyi with one year's salary. The children of the two families closed their doors to think about the past three months. Do you have any objections?"

"The minister obeys the order!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

"The minister obeys the order!"

"Choose another day for the two of you to get married as soon as possible to put an end to the rumors."

"Yes."

"Yes."

This was the first time that the Zhang and Liu families were "promised" by His Majesty, and both families were disgraced.

Especially Zhang Chongshan, he wanted to beat Zhang Shengmin to death because his whole life would be ruined by this good son.

He couldn't control his lower body, so he gave birth to a concubine who had an illegitimate relationship with a lowly servant girl. He didn't take good care of her after she was born, and this caused such a scandal.

After all, this is not His Majesty's official decree for marriage, but a suggestion to calm the public opinion and urge the two families to deal with it as soon as possible.

Zhang Chongshan suddenly thought of His Majesty's private visit that day and couldn't help but feel frightened.

Could it be that I have made His Majesty unhappy and His Majesty wants to liquidate himself?

The Zhang and Liu families were worried, but Pei Yuning looked calm and seemed not to be affected by the matter at all.

Not angry or surprised, just like an ordinary trivial matter.

"This matter has come to an end. Do you have anything else to report?" Pei Yuning asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Huanshan stood up and said, "I have something to report to your majesty!"

"Go ahead."

"Zhuzhou flood relief money has arrived in Zhuzhou a few days ago, but the flood has had a wide impact. The amount of money required by the Zhuzhou Department of Housing and Urban Affairs needs to be increased. On the one hand, the number of refugees is still increasing, and the summer is approaching. When distributing preventive measures Medicines are used to prevent post-disaster plagues. On the one hand, I asked the Qintian Supervisor yesterday and learned that the weather in Zhuzhou has been bad and rainy recently, and repairing the river embankments is also a top priority!"

Wang Shulin, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, reported, "What Minister Xiao said is absolutely true, but the Ministry of Revenue has already spent 200,000 taels, plus the tax exemption for Zhuzhou for two years, it is already very difficult. At the same time, this year's military expenditures in various places are higher than in previous years. And the autumn tax will not start in two months, and building river embankments is not a trivial matter, so we really can’t afford to spend more money!”

"In that case, what solution do you have?" Pei Yuning asked in a deep voice.

When the people in the Ministry of War heard what that old guy Wang Shulin said, they didn't think about spending money on military expenses, right?
  He hurriedly came out and said, "Your Majesty, military expenditures are higher than before, but the changes on the border are also obvious to all. If we don't have strong soldiers and horses, how can we deal with the enemy? Is it possible to use the hoe for farming?"

"Your Ministry of War is very quick at tapping money. Today it says it wants to buy horses, and tomorrow it says it wants to build an arsenal. That's it. But some time ago it said that the post station must also be repaired. When the border changes, you should not use hoes, but use the wood to build the inn station. Just go and fight!" People in the cabinet sneered.

"That's right! Wouldn't it be better to save the money for repairing the inn?"

The person from the Ministry of War who just spoke was speechless, his face looked ugly, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.
