Chapter 113 Marriage counts?

It's already August, and on the fourth day of the lunar new year, it's another day for courtiers to go to court.

In the middle of Liangyi Hall, Xie Zhan, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, dressed in a crimson official uniform, stood upright like a pine tree, and was about to report the affairs of the governor of Geyang County and the Liang family in public.

Afterwards, the Liang family knelt on the ground, their entire upper body lying on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.

Emperor Mu Andi got up from the dragon chair, and on the white jade steps, with his hands behind his back, he paced back and forth without saying a word.

Needle drop can be heard in the hall, and only the bead curtain in front of the emperor's crown can be heard as it moves.

All the people in Liangyi Hall held their breath and focused, each with their own thoughts, waiting for the new emperor to make a decision.

After a while, Emperor Mu Andi stopped, sighed deeply, turned around and looked down, and then threw the account book of the Liang family into the center of the hall with a "slap".

"What a big dog!"

Judging from the evidence exported by Xie Zhan and the Liang family, [-]% of the prosperous business in Geyang County, and even half of the business in Nanyang County, are all tightly held by Jiang Qiao.

The remaining [-]%, because it is on the border, is also squeezed out by high taxes on merchants.

This kind of money is comparable to mountains of gold and silver.

And the most shameful thing is that such affluence is obtained at the cost of the lives of tens of thousands of ordinary people.

Such cruelty can be said to be unprecedented.

It is not uncommon to raise a tribal song, but if a privately raised soldier who has not been reported to the court is brought to the public, it is tantamount to hitting the emperor in the face.And open corruption, collaborating with the enemy and treason, and disregarding the law to sell prohibited drugs have all stepped on the bottom line of the emperor.

There are all the witnesses and material evidence, at least the head of the sheriff of Geyang County will not be preserved.

The major families are well aware that the cost of raising trilogy is huge, which can be regarded as a bottomless pit. Once the money and food are used up, it will be like water pushing sand, and it is easy to lose money. If you don't have a rich family background, if you want to raise it, then is extremely difficult.

And after being raised, there must be a general to lead it to play a role, otherwise, it is tantamount to raising people for nothing.

That is to say, Jiang Qiao, who has a humble family background and an insignificant position, is not the one who really raised the soldier.

As for who was behind it, no one dared to talk about it above the two halls of ceremonies, not even Emperor Mu Andi.

Above the court, people's hearts are different.

When they didn't know which family was the culprit, everyone's eyes stopped on the young and tall future head of the Xie family.

No one could have imagined that this powerful sound of thanking the family would now start to give the emperor a bit of face and help him beat up the next family.

After coming down to court, Xie Zhan was invited by Emperor Mu And to the Hall of Qinzheng.

Same place, same two people.

Emperor Mu And walked up to the straight Xie Zhan, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Xie Liulang, I didn't believe you wrong."

"Your Majesty is merciful, I will do my best." Xie Zhan replied in a well-mannered manner.

Seeing that he remained calm, Emperor Mu And said again: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I intend to ask you to be the prince's teacher."

As soon as the words fell, Xie Zhan froze.

As the prince's teacher, whether it is the prince's grand teacher or the prince's grand master, they are all third-rank officials. Although it is a bit quick for him to rise to a rank, it is not too surprising.

What is unusual is that the second teacher of the prince has always been held by members of the royal family, and no family has ever participated.

As for why, the royal family and the aristocratic family all tacitly understood that they didn't trust each other enough.

So, Mu Andi is here now, treating him as one of his own?

Although it has not been decided yet, whether the Xie family should become the "family" of the royal family, now, facing the kindness offered by Emperor Mu Andi, he naturally has no intention of rejecting it.

Everything in the future can be discussed again.

Xie Zhan clapped his hands and answered, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your love."

Seeing that he accepted, Emperor Mu Andi became more and more satisfied with his expression.Being able to find the Xie family for his son to rely on, even support him, will give him some peace of mind when he closes his eyes for a hundred years in the future.

Thinking of this, Fu Yiwen's expectant look reappeared in front of his eyes, Emperor Mu Andi sighed slightly, stretched out his hand to help Xie Zhan, and asked: "Now that the Duke of Nanjun has passed away, what about your marriage with the little Fu girl?" Still want to count?"

This question really touched Xie Zhan's heart. There were several flashes of inspiration in his mind at the right time, and then he cupped his hands and replied solemnly: "Naturally, it counts."

Emperor Mu Andi nodded with relief, "That's good, otherwise I have a heavy trust."

Xie Zhan replied: "The minister will take care of the girl for Nanjun Gong."

Emperor Mu Andi was slightly startled, his eyes narrowed, and he said: "You still need to investigate the matter of your father-in-law supporting the minister. If there are... special circumstances and you can't make up your mind, you can come to the widow to make a decision in person."

Xie Zhan heard the implication, the special circumstances probably refer to the saint's "relatives", those from the empress's natal Yu family.

He followed the example of kindness.

**
The fifth day of the next day is the day when the law allows one to visit the prison once a month for support.

Mrs. Fu is weak, so only Fu Xuan and Fu Yun came to visit the prison.

Going to Dali Temple Prison again, as soon as she entered the door, she smelled an unpleasant smell of blood like last time, Fu Xuan bent over and retched a few times.

Hearing the movement behind her, Xie Zhan, who wanted to see the two of them in personally, raised his eyebrows, thinking that Fu Yun was beside her, and he turned around to comfort her, but he stopped in time.

During the few days in Geyang County, she did this every morning because she was "pregnant". Sometimes he was quicker and could even pat her on the back.

Thinking of "pregnancy", the saint's words turned around in his mind again, and Xie Zhan walked faster and faster.

Seeing that Fu Xuan was unwell, Fu Yun asked nervously in a warm voice: "Xuan Xuan, are you okay?"

Fu Xuan waved her hand, "I'll just get used to it."

Fu Yun smiled and said, "I've grown up and become more sensible."

Fu Xuan grinned, but said nothing.

After the cell door opened, Fu Xuan rushed to Fu Yiyan's side again, grabbed his arm and asked, "Father, you've suffered a lot, are you feeling better?"

Fuxuan Xiao's mother, Fu Yun Xiao's father, Fu Yiyan saw all the children coming, it seemed as if the whole family was reuniting for a moment, his voice choked up, and his eyes were red.

Seeing her father crying, Fuxuan went to check Fu Yiyan's clothes and asked loudly, "Father, but someone attacked you? Who gave the order? Is it Xie?"

Outside the cell, when the surname Xie heard her gnashing of teeth, his forehead twitched several times.

Co-author, good things have nothing to do with him, and all bad things are done by him?

Besides, with him coming to make inspections every now and then, who else would bully her father?

Inside, the three members of the Fu family talked for another quarter of an hour, and then Fu Xuan reluctantly dragged her heavy steps out of the prison door.

Before leaving, he still did not forget to tell Fu Yiyan: "Use the sachet I gave you well, but it is all herbs for relieving cough and reducing phlegm. Your body is just right, so be careful, and don't relapse again."

After leaving the prison, Fu Yun solemnly bowed to Xie Zhan to thank him, and Fu Xuan also cooperated with Fu Yun in bowing to him.

After Xie Zhan accepted, the two Fu family said their goodbyes and walked out of the yamen.

Xie Zhan heard Fu Yun say: "I met Prince Duan in the palace just now, he said he would come to the mansion to see the second cousin later, and said that he found out what you asked, and told you to wait at the second cousin first." Go. Did you ask him what's the matter?"

Fuxuan lied and said: "About Tangchi Villa, I went back to play in his Tangchi Villa last time, and left something behind..."
