The Evil King's Crazy Wife: The World of Ghost Concubine

Chapter 345 Persuasion
Yan Beihui showed a look of shock: "Sister-in-law, what do you mean, Zhao Dahu and his son are backed by Langzhou governor, that's why they are so bold, right?"

"That's right. Ningcheng is a big city. The younger sister of the prefect of Langzhou is not Zhao Dahu's original spouse. Mrs. Zhao Dahu married her after his death. Think about it, why does the younger sister of the dignified prefect want to be the prefect's stepmother?"

"This Governor of Langzhou is definitely not a good person. He wants to use his sister to win over Zhao Dahu, so as to control Langzhou more comprehensively."

Yun Lanyue nodded to her appreciatively: "Look, you are very smart, you can see through a little bit."

Yan Beihui snorted proudly: "Of course, anyway, Hui'er has been familiar with poetry, books and Five Classics since she was a child, and she grew up in the palace, so how could she not understand anything?"

"Then why did your elder brother release Zhao Dahu and his son instead of taking them into custody and beheading them? Do you understand the intention?"

After hearing this, Yan Beihui shook his head again: "If that's the case, wouldn't it be enough for the prince to send someone directly to suspend the governor of Langzhou for investigation? Why did Zhao Dahu and his son be released? Shouldn't they be detained for interrogation? more direct?"

"Hui'er, things are not that simple. Langzhou Governor Yin is a fourth-rank court official. Even if you are the prince's elder brother, you must have a reason to be held accountable. Otherwise, you will be contemptuous of Tianwei. Now that the emperor is not around, some Your prince brother can't deal with matters entirely according to his will, such as this matter, do you think Chen Leng didn't investigate when he found Langzhou Governor?"

"The results of it?"

Yun Lanyue shook her head: "Nothing was found, the governor of Langzhou is very clean, and in the eyes of the people of Langzhou, he is a good official who is willing to do good, and often distributes food and silver to the people in poor living conditions .”

"If that's the case, is the prefect of Langzhou a bad person?"

"If he was a good person, how could he allow Zhao Dahu and his son to bully the people in Ningcheng like this? Zhao Dahu's house was ransacked, and there are countless gold and jewels in his house. How can he get so much money when he is a mere magistrate?"

"The emperor's sister-in-law means that the governor of Langzhou used Zhao Dahu's status as the magistrate of Ningcheng to conceal the fact of corruption for him?"

Yun Lanyue nodded in a deep voice: "Thinking about these years, Zhao Dahu has not only embezzled these things, but also most of the money has been put into the pocket of Langzhou Governor, otherwise, where did he get so much food and silver? Come to do good deeds? Don’t the whole family need to eat?”

"Sister-in-law Huang is right, there must be something tricky about it."

"Because of this, your prince elder brother did not imprison Zhao Dahu and his son after considering it. First, the two of them naturally wanted to survive. Langzhou Governor was their only hope. Even if they were really imprisoned and tortured, father and son The two will not confess to the prefect, or they are asking for a dead end, so it is useless to imprison them. Second, let them go. The two are penniless and desperate, and they will definitely go to the prefect of Langzhou for help. At least It can also solve the problem of food and clothing, and thirdly, as long as the governor of Langzhou comes to the rescue, the prince will have a pretext to investigate the governor of Langzhou, and he must cooperate at that time, and he will definitely find some clues."

After hearing this, Yan Beihui suddenly realized: "It turns out that the elder brother of the prince wants to take a long time to catch a big fish. It seems that this time Hui'er really misunderstood the elder brother of the prince."

Yun Lanyue said with a smile: "Since you know it's a misunderstanding, can you understand him?"

Yan Beihui nodded, and just about to laugh, she pouted aggrievedly again: "But the prince's brother looks down on me too much, it's obviously the case, why do you have to hide it from me, and Hui'er misunderstood him like this, Could it be that Huier is such a stupid person in his eyes?"

"You, I still don't understand him."

"Sister-in-law, did you deliberately help the prince to speak!"

"You misunderstood me this time. I don't help my relatives. Your prince brother doesn't tell you the truth. It's actually for your own good. You stay away from officialdom. He doesn't want you to get involved in these dirty things, so he would rather Misunderstood by you, and this time, he also wants to take the opportunity to teach you a lesson."

"Teach me?" Yan Beihui didn't understand: "Why? Did Hui'er do something wrong to make the prince's brother angry? Or is the prince's brother angry that Hui'er refused to listen to persuasion and insisted on coming with you and disturbing you? gone?"

"Is the elder brother in your eyes such a stingy person?"

Yan Beihui shook her head with a blank expression on her face.

"Since you know that he is not such a person, believe that he will not teach you because of this kind of thing. As I said, he is for your own good. No matter what he does, it is for your own good."

"Sister-in-law, I don't understand."

Yun Lanyue smiled at her and said: "Your prince brother is worried that you will offend others if you marry in the future, and you don't want you to say something wrong without knowing it, so I want to educate you so that you can understand , Sometimes there are some things that cannot be said. He knows that when you are in the palace, it doesn’t matter what you say, because you are the most beloved princess of the father and queen. Everyone follows you and is willing to spoil you, but married It's different when you go out, in case your in-laws don't know what kind of temperament you are, you sometimes speak directly and can easily hurt others, do you understand?"

Yan Beihui blinked her eyes: "But isn't Hui'er going to marry the royal sister-in-law's family? The royal sister-in-law is so sensible, and the royal sister-in-law's parents and brothers must be very easy to get along with."

"Yeah, but your prince brother's status is embarrassing. He is from your side and from my side. I'm afraid that something might happen. Do you understand?"

Yan Beihui seemed to finally understand, nodded and said: "Sister-in-law, Huier is wrong."

"Then do you want to eat now?"

Yan Beihui looked at the food in front of her and thought of Chun'er, she didn't nod or refuse.

Yun Lanyue pushed the food in front of her: "I know you are very sad, but you didn't kill Chun'er. The person who really killed her will have retribution sooner or later. You believe in the emperor's wife, and you believe in you even more. Brother Prince, right?"

Yan Beihui looked at her, and suddenly threw herself into her arms with red eyes, choked up and said, "Sister-in-law, Hui'er has never harmed anyone, but although Chun'er was not killed by me, her death is related to Hui'er's death." There is a close relationship, if Huier didn't think carefully at the beginning, she would not have had an accident, thinking of this, even if the food in front of me is delicious, I can't swallow it in one gulp."

"Chun'er died wrongly, but I believe she won't blame you. If you punish yourself for this, Chun'er will feel uneasy. Be good, eat some."

"Sister-in-law."

"Be obedient and eat."

Yan Beihui looked at her with teary eyes, finally nodded and took two mouthfuls.
