Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 631
Four days before Miss An San married General Jiang, Mrs. Gao returned to Beijing. The next day, she was paid a high-profile visit by the emperor and entered the cabinet.

When the news spread throughout the capital, Su Yue was drinking tea with Miss An San in the warm pavilion in Xinyue Hall.

"Still worried about General Zhao?" Looking at the snowflakes falling outside, Miss An San held up the tea bowl in her hand and asked in a low voice.

On the day of Cai Bing's execution, it snowed in the evening, and the snow fell heavily, covering the entire capital city in white.

This time, it's down to today.

Su Yue was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that she was distracted looking at the snowflakes outside, so she smiled apologetically.

On that day, Zhao Hao did not wait until the next day, but left the capital that night.

When she heard the news and was accompanied by Xie Jue and rushed out of the city, it was snowing heavily.

Zhao Hao was riding on a horse in black. Looking back in the heavy snow, he gave a distant salute to the carriage she was sitting in, and then rode away. The horse's hooves fluttered and disappeared in the snow in a blink of an eye.

Obviously at that time it was dark and dark, and it was obvious that the heavy snow covered the world at that time.

She seemed to be able to see the smile on his face.

And the firmness in his eyes like a rock.

This made her distracted by looking at the snowflakes outside in the past few days.

It was snowing all the time in the capital, and it was even more snowy on the way to the north, but the man left without hesitation.

"Don't worry, my family said that General Zhao grew up in the border gate, and he can come and go freely even in a snowstorm, let alone such a snowstorm." Miss An San said with a chuckle.

"That's right." Su Yue smiled and said, "Third sister is going to get married soon, did you come here today to talk to me?"

Miss An San chuckled, pointing to two red plum trees not far from the window that had just budded and said, "I'm here for you plum blossoms. Well, it's a pity that I won't be able to see it this year, thinking about it, I'm afraid you're the only one with buds in this capital, and I've been here for my eyes."

Su Yue chuckled, not believing it at all.

When I haven’t been to your Changningbo mansion, haven’t I seen the plum trees planted in your back garden?If you want to see the plum groves in the garden behind Prince Xian's mansion, it's okay, just these two trees...

Miss An San also laughed, and said with a slightly dark face: "Who did you send those things to me a while ago?"

"You mean the ones from outside the story?" Su Yue said, "Your ones, Rong Rong's ones, and Ning San Ning Si Ling's."

There was a pause in the voice, and Su Yue continued: "Niufu, I also gave some."

This time Wang Chun and Xia Li brought a lot of special brocades and gadgets from Baghdad and East Africa in addition to the usual ones.

She picked out some interesting ones and gave them to some good friends. At that time, she thought about it and prepared some parchment and ivory for Su Jinrong and Niu Erniu.

"Jiu Mansion?" Miss An San asked.

"Yes." Su Yue was a little strange: "What's wrong?"

Usually, she gave gifts to these families, and what's more, she gave some money to the original fourth house of Ningyuan Houfu.

"That's it." Miss An San frowned slightly and said, "Yesterday I went to the silver building to get the jewelry I ordered, and I heard someone chatting, saying that Princess Xian gave a great gift to the Niu family, and they were all things that I had never seen in the capital. It should be that King Xian’s ship came back and asked the concubine to come forward and give gifts to curry favor with the courtiers.”

"What else did you say?" Su Yue's expression froze slightly.

These two sentences alone are not worth making a special trip for Miss An San.

"They also said, but this concubine is really ignorant, she doesn't understand the meaning of the sage king at all, and she always makes troubles for the sage king." Miss An San glanced at her from the corner of her eyes, and continued: "The current situation , if you want to give a gift, you should come from Fang Xiang and Chen Xiang's house first, and it should be sent to Fu's house, and there are a few Shangshu's houses that shouldn't be neglected, but now it is going to the Niu's house Given a heavy gift, could it be that the concubine thinks Lord Niu can enter the cabinet?"

Listening to the previous one, Su Yue laughed twice, but her face darkened when she heard the last sentence, and said: "Who is the speaker?"

"I don't know him." Miss An San shook her head and said, "But I remember meeting her at the wedding banquet in the Huaining Hou Mansion. It should be a female relative of a civil official's family."

Su Yue flicked her finger on the tea bowl, and said, "If you don't know him, then he should be from a low-level family. How do they know that I sent a gift to Niu's family?"

"Don't you remember? Miss Niu married into the Xu family. There are many children and grandchildren in Xu University's mansion, as well as many relatives, and even more officials. It's not easy to pass on a message?" Miss An San's voice paused. He said: "Tell me honestly, does King Xian not want Mr. Fu Da to enter the cabinet?"

Su Yue was slightly stunned, she lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then said: "I'm really not sure about this, but the Fu family did some things this time that were very dishonest."

"About the military expenses of the frontier army?" Miss An San asked.

Su Yue was surprised: "You know?"

Zhao Hao collected tens of millions of coins from Cai Bing, as well as many treasures. Xie Jue asked the emperor to agree to give those, together with the nearly 2000 million coins found in other people's homes, to the frontier army. That's it.

But after retiring from the court that day, several members of the Fu family and several civil servants who claimed to support the virtuous king ran to find Xie Jue, and repeatedly persuaded Xie Jue not to give all the money to the frontier army, but to use the money to do things. Other purposes, such as building schools, roads, embankments, and tax cuts. As for the frontier army, hasn’t the autumn grain been shipped?One or two million guan is enough for the military pay. By the end of the year, the autumn tax has been collected, and some more will be given.

That night Xie Jue came back with a dark face, and cursed a few times while taking a shower.

"When the Fu family went to look for the prince that day, General Zhao was actually there." Miss An San smiled and said, "Not only General Zhao was there, but General Zhao's subordinates happened to be there too, just to avoid suspicion. It's just the room next to it, when the Fu family came into the room, they crackled and said, they didn't want to hear it, and when they went back, when they were drinking with my family, they cursed."

At that time, General Jiang told Zhao Hao that if the Fu family was in power, he would be the same as Cai Bing, but Zhao Hao said with a smile, don't worry, the virtuous king is not the current emperor, and told them that this matter will rot in their stomachs You must not tell the outside world.

General Jiang didn't say anything to anyone else, but in the end he was so angry that he told her.

At that time, she felt that the Fu family should have nothing to do with the cabinet.

Now it seems that it is.

Putting down the tea bowl, Miss An San said: "It's very wise for the prince to make such a decision, but it still needs to be considered carefully. Now the Fu family is taking advantage of the prince's influence. If something is not good, the prince will lose his mouth. For a fu home, it's not worth it."

Last year, Cai Bing implemented the new policy. Because of opposing Cai Bingna's new policy, the Fu family gained an excellent reputation. Although she later figured out that Xie Jue should have come up with those tricks, the outsiders didn't know it. It is the credit of the Fu family.

Moreover, in the past year, the Fu family has also stood up for Xie Jue. Although they are only executors, they have really won the favor of the emperor and many students.

Coupled with the one-sided support of the Fu family after the appearance of the Xian Wang, they also mobilized all their connections to support the Xian Wang. No matter in the eyes of others or in actual operation, they have become the No. 1 hard core of the Xian Wang.

With such an aura, and the fact that the emperor had proposed to let him enter the cabinet, if Xie Jue stopped him, he would be questioned, and people would think Xie Jue was ungrateful.

Furthermore, some people would doubt Xie Jue's motives.

At that time, I'm afraid that the sewage will be poured on Su Yue's head.

"What is the third sister's good plan?" Su Yue said with a smile.

"The queen is related to the assassination of the emperor, but the emperor did not deprive the queen of the position, but Cai Bing has obeyed the law, and it is rare that someone will raise this matter. At that time, the wise king can let the emperor take a step back and demote the queen's position, so that Fu Mr. Da is changed to be a Bachelor." Glancing at the vermilion figure standing quietly in the snow outside the window, Miss An San sneered slightly and said, "No matter what, the queen has made you suffer a lot, so just let it go." But, it’s really lucky.”

For a person like the queen, confinement is not necessarily a punishment, but depriving her of her proud post is the punishment that makes her life worse than death.

As for the Fu family, with such a stain in the family, they can no longer occupy the moral high ground, and regard themselves as the leader of the Qing Dynasty and the mainstay of courtiers.

At such a time, Mr. Fu Da himself has no face to enter the cabinet, and the emperor and Xie Jue can just make him a bachelor with no real job, and accompany Xu Dashi, Ji Dashi.

"But, who will say it now?" Su Yue hesitated and said, "If it's someone who talks about King Kang, I don't think they will come forward at this time."

Miss An San was stunned for a moment, and said: "Yes, your lord's methods are thunderous. Although General Zhao is not here now, Yu Wei is still there. Those who are savages will not dare to offend the virtuous king."

Uh, I forgot, since the outsiders regard the Fu family as the confidant of the virtuous king, no one would dare to directly offend the virtuous king at this time.

Eyeballs wandered around twice, Miss An San smiled and said: "However, with your third master's cleverness, this kind of matter can be easily resolved, okay, I'm done talking, I'm going back now, I still have more things to do, By the way, this tea is good, I took it away."

Su Yue sent Miss Ansan out, while Tang Bing went to the front yard and found Xie Jue who had just entered the mansion without taking off her cloak. Repeated exactly the same.

Xie Jue frowned and listened to his cold complexion without moving even a trace of skin, but his voice was full of ups and downs. After thinking for a long time, he smiled and said, "Yue'er is right, Miss An San is indeed a wonderful person."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, going to Gaofu.

It was night, and the new high minister entered the palace.

In the early morning of the next day, Prime Minister Gao came out to ask the emperor to close the case of treason and assassination, to bring the criminals who had been found out to justice, and not to hold others accountable.

However, for those who have been clearly related to the assassination and treason case, which is related to the safety of the country, no matter who it is, they cannot be lightly forgiven.

These words were righteous, Qin Yushi took the lead, and all the courtiers seconded.

Therefore, the emperor pronounced the verdict, Concubine Li and the assassin were executed, killing the nine clans, while the empress was demoted to common people, imprisoned in the cold palace for life, and all other palace people involved in this matter were executed.

Concubine Li and the assassin were alone, and they couldn't find any other relatives at all. To kill the Nine Clans was to kill them both.

But the meaning behind the queen's demotion is a bit bigger.

However, the emperor didn't let the courtiers guess for long, and then announced that Mr. Fu Da was called into the court to serve as a scholar.
