Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 646
The matter of the road tax caused great disturbance in the court, and within two days, the matter had already spread throughout the capital.

On the third day, Miss Ning Si arrived at Prince Xian's mansion.

It was the time of mid-spring, and the back garden of Prince Xian's Mansion was full of purples and reds, and the scenery was extremely beautiful.

Su Yue was picking flowers in the back garden to make scented tea, when she heard Miss Ning Si came, she sent people to the back garden directly.

In February, Miss Ning Si also made an engagement, the youngest son of Hong Shangshu's family in the Ministry of Punishment, this year's Xinke Tanhualang.

This marriage was still created by Miss Ling during the Chinese New Year. After the two of them met, seeing that they were in love with each other, Ling Juefeng came forward to propose marriage for the Hong family.

At that time, Marquis Huaining was still hesitant, but Mrs. Marquis Huaining agreed without hesitation. Afterwards, Mr. Hong was awarded Tanhua, and Marquis Huaining didn't say anything.

It's just that the fourth girl Ning has just turned fifteen, and the two families agreed not to get married until the second half of the year, so they can still dance around now, and no one in Shangxian Palace cares.

It's just that as soon as Xie Jue fired a cannon in the court hall, Miss Ning Si came over.

Seeing Miss Ning Si's face, Su Yue smiled and said, "Why are you so anxious?"

"I knew I couldn't hide it from you." Miss Ning Si picked a blooming peony hairpin in her hair, and nuzzled at the small pavilion next to her.

Su Yue shook her head with a smile, put down the things in her hands, clapped her hands, and led her to sit down in a small booth beside her.

After everyone retreated, Su Yue poured a new cup of tea for Miss Ning Si and said, "Let's talk."

"Oh, I'm not going around anymore." Miss Ning Si smiled and said, "Is your third master going to investigate the road tax corruption case? My brother-in-law and my fiancé also want to go with me."

Su Yue frowned unconsciously and said, "Go down?"

Xie Jue had indeed said that once this matter was singled out, it would be a big deal, and he did have a plan to go down and get rid of some local officials.

but……

"Yes, my brother-in-law said that judging from the ten commercial routes proposed by the virtuous king, the disaster of road tax will lead to the disaster of destroying the country. Moreover, the greed of those local officials is beyond imagination. ..." Miss Ning Si laughed twice and said: "He said too much, and I can't remember too lightly. In short, my brother-in-law and my fiancé are very angry, thinking that the people below must be investigated, arrested and killed, but Well, after being arrested and killed, the local government offices cannot be left alone, so the virtuous king should bring some people down, but after the investigation and punishment, people will be the first to take over."

Su Yue let out an ah, and understood.

This spring, the one with the most limelight is the Marquis of Huaining. The fourth girl Ning just got married, and Mr. Hong won the prize. The husband of the third girl Ning who married last year is this year's champion. .

The No. [-] Lang who has won three prizes in a row.

Except that they are not as handsome and elegant as Yun Qinghong, and they are also older than Yun Qinghong, the two are about the same in terms of fame.

However, when the emperor wanted to personally appoint him as Zhongshu Sheren, the number one scholar declined politely, saying that he wanted to do some basic work.

Although it is said that three months after the Qionglin Banquet is the time for new Jinshi to report to the Ministry of Officials, it is just that those newly promoted Jinshi did not report to the Ministry of Officials early in order to seek a good position, but now it has been one month. However, Yang Zhuangyuan remained silent.

It turned out that I was waiting for this opportunity.

When Xie Jue goes down to arrest people, he will naturally not catch some soldiers and crab generals. Even if the transfer above keeps them temporarily motionless, those prefects and magistrates who directly make money will probably kill a few people on the spot.

If you follow to fill the vacancy, it will be either the magistrate or the magistrate.

Moreover, the more serious the corruption, the more it is a transportation hub (the hairy business road in the backcountry), and the more prosperous the place is where the population gathers.

but……

Blinking her eyes, Su Yue asked, "Your brother-in-law, didn't you already notice this?"

Miss Ning Si smiled and said: "Yes, during the Chinese New Year, our house has those things you gave us. Although I have noticed it, the impact is not too big, but my brother-in-law and his family all came from Huai'an. Looking at it The soaring prices in the capital felt that something was wrong, so people went back to inquire, and learned that the caravans from Huaiyang did not dare to come at all, saying that most of the goods were stripped off after passing through Yangzhou. The goods in the store have not been broken because there are still a few big merchants with backgrounds. This year, the prices of many daily necessities are ridiculously expensive. My brother-in-law said that something will happen. Don’t talk about my brother-in-law, my family Hong Lang also thinks something is wrong!"

"Your Hong Lang..." Su Yue laughed at her.

"Oh, you are also the name of your family's third master and third master." The fourth girl Ning blushed across her face, stared at Su Yue, and continued: "Although there is a minister in their family, but Hong The family has a large population, and the family background is not too good. Hong Shangshu often has to help those clansmen. This year's Chinese New Year, the annual gifts for the clansman are three times more than in previous years. According to Hong Lang, Hong Shangshu and Mrs. Hong this year There are three elders on the other side, when he and my brother-in-law were discussing together, they all said that there was a problem with this matter, and later, the emperor handed over this matter to the virtuous king, and it turned out that the virtuous king..."

The voice paused, Miss Ning looked at Su Yue and giggled twice, but was squinted by Su Yue, she hurriedly stopped her smile, and said as seriously as possible: "That's someone else's nonsense, my brother-in-law and Hong Lang But I don’t think so. My brother-in-law said that the virtuous king must have his own reasons for doing things. The source of the soaring prices in the capital is not in the capital, but outside, so it is right for the virtuous king to go out. They came to win him over, but he insisted on not moving, and even persuaded Hong Lang not to go to the Ministry of Punishment, and to wait for the wise king's next move."

Su Yue said with a slightly restrained expression: "You can talk about this matter through Ling Juefeng, why do you want me to talk about it?"

"That..." Fourth Ning's eyes rolled around.

"I don't understand, I don't want to spread this word." Su Yue said slowly.

Ling Juefeng and the No. [-] scholar were both from Huai'an, and their relationship was different. Wouldn't it be better for Ling Juefeng to reveal this kind of thing?
Why take the lady route?

Tricky!Absolutely tricky!

"That..." Fourth Miss Ning said with a smile: "You don't know yet, it's like this, Master Ling invited King Xian and my brother-in-law to hold a banquet and drink by the Bian River yesterday, and we haven't talked about it yet, Fu Then the two sons of the Fu family came, and brought a group of dancing girls, saying that they were just to help the fun, but half of it was helped. The two sons of the Fu family said that Liu Sisi, the lead dancer, was beautiful and good, and she could just add fragrance to the red sleeves of the virtuous king. , and then led those people to make a fuss, saying that the virtuous king should be brought into the mansion."

Seeing Su Yue's face darkened, Miss Ning lowered her head and pointed her fingers: "Well, my brother-in-law is not a frivolous person, but his group of students are actually...that...so, he also We booed together..."

Hao's family was well educated by Hong Shangshu in Hong Lang and had a distant relationship with Fu's family, so he didn't make a sound.

"And then?" Su Yue asked in a deep voice.

"Then, then the virtuous king was furious." Miss Ning looked sideways at Su Yue, but she said with a smile on her lips: "The virtuous king scolded them sternly, and even scolded Ling Juefeng. Well, now that the state affairs are critical, they only think about women, and they like red sleeves so much, so they don't want to be officials, and they all stay at home. They sent that Liu Sisi and a few dancers to the Fu family, saying that they would let the two sons of the Fu family enjoy themselves."

Su Yue was silent for a moment.

This is really a complete and direct slap in the face of the Fu family.

No wonder Xie Jue didn't mention it when he came back, presumably he didn't want her to worry.

"Well, my brother-in-law sent out the two beautiful girls in the family when he returned home, and told my sister that the virtuous king would not be close to women for the sake of state affairs. As a courtier, how can he delay his business because of his beauty? In the future, unless my elder sister has no children in her thirties, there will definitely be no other women in the family." Miss Ning Si smiled and said: "My elder sister asked me to tell you, thank you, my lord!"

"This number one scholar is quite clever." Su Yue nodded unconsciously.

"Then..." Miss Ning Si said with some trepidation: "Sister, can you help me?"

Third Miss Ning came back in a hurry last night, and she talked to her about this in private. At that time, Third Miss Ning said that after the Zhuangyuan Lang returned, he said that there was no room for the Fu family to see the King Xian like that, and he would not reuse it in the future Fu family.

And the wise king does not use the Fu family, which means that the wise king wants to use real capable people, not someone who can only play tricks in the face of loyalty.

The people who came out of Qishan Academy thought they belonged to the Fu family faction, and thought that the virtuous king would definitely reuse them. It seems that they had completely miscalculated the form.

So in this case, instead of making friends with those people from the Fu family, he and Hong Tanhua should start from the lowest level and rely on their own ability to make the virtuous king agree.

Now that we have decided to start from the grassroots, it is more reliable to follow the virtuous king.

Because, from the present point of view, the virtuous king has left them behind in general affairs. Instead of thinking about fooling him, it is better to learn the real skills from him.

It's just that although the number one scholar thought so, he also sighed and said that he was implicated by the fools of the Fu family. I'm afraid that in the eyes of the virtuous king, he, like the people of the Fu family, has become the kind of person who only talks empty words. A person who can work.

Miss Ning San volunteered to come back to find Miss Ning Fourth, and asked Miss Ning Fourth to walk away from Su Yue.

Now that she is married, it is not good to go directly to Prince Xian's mansion, but Miss Ning Si is still easy to move around.

Needless to say, I will show the determination of Zhuangyuanlang and Hong Tanhua, and don't let the king drag them to the Fu family.

Su Yue nodded with a smile and said, "Success, let me convey this for you."

It's rare for the number one scholar to have such awareness. Xie Jue needs such a person, so it's okay to help convey it.

"By the way, there is one more thing. My sister said that what the virtuous king did yesterday slapped the Fu family hard." Ning Si's face darkened slightly and said: "Their family dare not say anything about the virtuous king. I'm afraid that the sewage will be poured on you again, saying that you are jealous or something."

Su Yue smiled lightly and said, "So what if I'm just jealous? Don't worry about this kind of thing, and the left and right can't hurt me."

"That's true." Fourth Miss Ning said with a smile.

Now that Su Yue's level is here, there are not many opportunities to invite her to come forward. Besides, even if she is invited out, so what, with the outstanding martial arts Eunuch Tang, the so-called princess can fight, who else? can not fight?

It's just a private discussion to discuss some happy mouth.
