Medicine Girl Jingjing

Chapter 237
In the study, Li Yunxiao held the official newspaper with both hands, frowned his thick black eyebrows, sighed like a little adult, and said to himself: "No wonder my mother is always in a bad mood these days, it turns out that our family's money Detained by His Majesty!"

"What happened?" He Yiyang lived in the deep mountains of Lintong and had no official newspapers to read. Ever since he arrived at Li's house and was inseparable from Li Yunxiao, he also began to read official newspapers.

Li Yunxiao pouted and said displeasedly: "My grandfather was listed in the first article of the official newspaper. It's not a good thing. He was fined by His Majesty for two years of salary. My grandfather has been in Hunan for several months from last autumn to a few days ago. To recuperate from illness, thousands of miles away from the Northland, where the army was defeated, His Majesty still punished my grandfather."

He Yiyang was pushed by Lin Hai in a wheelchair, took the official newspaper and read it at a glance, and tore it up directly. He said angrily, "I don't teach my father's fault. Why should the prince punish Mr. Crouching Tiger for committing a crime?"

"The prince's father is His Majesty. Your Majesty can't punish himself." Seeing He Yiyang's eyes widening, Li Yunxiao hurried forward to cover his mouth for fear that he would say outrageous words again.

Ten days later, He Dong blamed himself in the court, reduced the salaries of all the royal family members by [-]%, halved the palace expenses, and donated the money to the survivors of the martyrs of the Longteng Army and the Lion Roaring Army.

People in the royal family have no fief, and their salary has been reduced by [-]%, all of which are complaints from the heart.Several county kings and princesses specifically mentioned this when they went to the Qing Palace to celebrate the Empress Dowager's birthday.

Only then did the empress dowager know that her eldest grandson, He Yixuan, was demoted to the county king after being killed in battle, and she fainted from crying on the spot.

He Dongkou punished several nephews and nieces for copying the filial piety scriptures a hundred times, and they were confined for a month.

Emperor He Dong's grandmother, the Empress Dowager, worried about her daughter-in-law's death, went to the monastery to burn incense and pray for her. On the way back, she encountered a thunderstorm and collapsed from the shock of thunder.

The Kai Dynasty ruled that the royal family drafted every three years.After He Dong established the Ding Dynasty, it was changed to the royal family's five-year draft.

He Dong has been selected for the show three times since he ascended the throne, and this is the fourth time. When the eldest son is killed in battle, the army is defeated, and the first-line grandma dies, he will cancel it directly.

He Dong decreed that all members of the royal family could not marry within three years, and kept filial piety for the empress dowager.

Those county kings and princesses are at the age of marriage, some of them have been given marriages by He Dong and will get married this year, and some have not yet been given marriages, so all of them will be delayed until three years later.

Qin Lan, the concubine of the Duke of Chang'an's mansion, was conferred last year as the side concubine of King He Jingqing. She was supposed to get married this year, but it was also postponed until three years later.

She was extremely depressed, and she didn't want to make others feel better. She was so daring that she joined Qin Dong to take revenge on the second room, and planned to set up a poisonous scheme to frame her uncle Qin Yue and Li Qubing, who had come all the way to the Duke's mansion to mourn.

In the past few days, Li Bing sent people to send the bones of He Yixuan, Qin Nan and the soldiers to Chang'an. Because they couldn't tell which bones belonged to the crown prince and Qin Nan, the Duke's Mansion and Princess Hu Jing of Xuan County decided to build a big grave for them. They were all mourned at the foot of the mountain in the outer suburbs of Chang'an.

Qin Xionghuang's first wife Mi Shi was in charge of the Duke's Mansion before.

Mi Shi was originally the daughter of Orion. She accidentally saved Qin Xionghuang's life when she was a girl, and they got married.At that time, Qin Xionghuang was the leader of the bandits, but Mi's natal family disagreed.The Mi family actually severed ties with his mother and went to live in the mountains with Qin Xionghuang.

Later, Qin Xionghuang was persuaded by Li Bing to bring the bandits under him to submit to He Dong, and it became a climate.

When He Dong came to the throne, Qin Xionghuang competed with the other military officers for honors, because he was the first to follow He Dong and became the highest Cong Yipin Duke.

The Mi family became the wife of the Duke, and told people everywhere that she was a prosperous husband, and she obviously couldn't read a single word, so she insisted on managing the entire Duke's mansion.

She is a face-saving and stupid person, she listens and believes, she can use whoever flatters her, except for the three big butlers who are determined by Qin Xionghuang and cannot be changed, and the rest of the important positions are used to flatter her. people.

Qin Xionghuang had this idea for a long time ago, and he told Mi Shi several times every year, but Mi Shi refused every time.

When there is a big banquet in the Duke's Mansion, Mrs. Mi will hand over all the errands to Mrs. Deng.

This time, Qin Nan's funeral in the Duke's Mansion was bigger than that of Qin Xionghuang's birthday. There were so many things. Deng's husband was so sad that he didn't care about it, so many disadvantages of Mi's improper housekeeping were exposed.

The nobles who came to express their condolences drank bad tea, and this incident alone completely disgraced the Duke's Mansion.

Qin Yue returned to the mansion and heard from the guests' complaints about the mistakes made by the servants of the Duke's mansion a few days ago. This is absolutely impossible in the Duke's mansion of Tanzhou.

He deeply felt how difficult it was for He Huishu to be a housekeeper, and her ability was a hundred times stronger than Mi's.

One of the things that He Huishu handed over to him was to ask him to propose to Qin Xionghuang to cancel Mi's housekeeping rights and let Deng take over.

So he did it the same day he arrived at Chang'an Duke's Mansion.

Qin Xionghuang really didn't want the Duke's Mansion to continue in chaos and make outsiders laugh at him. This time even Qin Yue brought it up, so he directly ordered the butler of the Deng family to take back all the tokens of the Mi family.

Mrs. Deng was extremely angry at the messy funeral arrangements for Qin Yue. After receiving the order, she immediately rectified the whole mansion. She broke the legs and confiscated the property of the more than a dozen housekeepers who had embezzled the money in the mansion. The more than [-] servants and maids who have been confused and made mistakes in the past few days will all be given [-] boards. If they make mistakes again, they will be sold directly.

Deng's vigorous and resolute style is quite cunning, and most people can't fool her.

Seeing that she was much stronger than Mie, the servants couldn't fool her at all, so they all worked up their errands with all their energy.

However, in half a day, the Duke's Mansion obviously lost dozens of people, but there were only a few small mistakes, which was much better than the big incidents and jokes that happened every few days a few days ago.

Mi Shi originally wanted to get back the power of steward, but when he heard that the steward's wife and steward had embezzled tens of thousands of taels of silver from the mansion, he could only calm down for a while in shock.

Several aunts brought their concubine children to pay respects to Mrs. Mi and provoke the relationship between Mrs. Mi and Qin Yue.

Mi Shi was very upset about losing his housekeeping rights, only then did he realize that it was Qin Yue and Qin Xionghuang who suggested it.

She was foolish enough to fall into the trap of her aunt and concubine's children, thinking that Qin Yue's renunciation with her was instigated by the Ming family and He Huishu, and fell ill with anger.

Her two prostitute daughters, Qin Hong and Qin Juan, rushed over after hearing the news. They heard that she had lost her housekeeping rights, and defended her. They did not dare to scold Qin Yue, who had beaten them because of He Huishu, so they scolded Deng in front of the guests. Shi Wolf is ambitious and unfilial.

Mrs. Deng kept silent all the time, and when Qin Hong and Qin Juan finished scolding, she sent a servant to deliver a letter to their husband, saying that it was a matter of her natal family and that they would not bother them in the future.

All the guests had seen the jokes in Qin Guogong's mansion, and they said that the daughters married by Qin Hong and Qin Juan even meddled in their natal family's affairs when they left the mansion.

Mi Shi even complained about Shang Ming Shi and He Huishu after learning about it, thinking that if they hadn't instigated Qin Yue to help Deng Shi take over the housekeeping rights, how could she have complained to the two prostitutes, and what happened later would not have happened.
