Chapter 602 The Situation in the West

Seeing that Jiang Yuanlin remained silent for a long time, some of the people outside the hall couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted: "The prefect of Yongzhou, don't you want to pay compensation? Or do you think the compensation is too much? No! Your wife can pay for it." It costs 8000 million taels to buy jade, and your family is not short of money, so why don't you accept the compensation from Princess Li?"

Jiang Yuanlin understood that Ganqing was waiting here.

He felt disgusted and had nothing to say in his heart. At this moment, he really wanted to see with his own eyes what Princess Li looked like, and how such a powerful woman could please everyone in the capital.

Suddenly, Vanilla's voice came again, reminding him, "I just forgot to say that this compensation is not the idea of ​​my concubine alone, after all, there was His Royal Highness Li Wang who was present yesterday.

The little girl did not come to tell Mr. Jiang that yesterday your wife, daughter and servant girl spoke disrespectfully to His Royal Highness Prince Li, and even said such words as shameless. Mr. Jiang should feel lucky. The madam has long been turned into a wisp of soul under the hands of the prince, and she has not been wronged at all.

If you want to deny the compensation, that’s fine too. Your Highness said that since you are an official, you should use the official method to solve the problem. Please go to the Li Palace with the little girl after Mr. Jiang retreats, and then go with His Highness Li Wang. Entering the palace to face the saint, please the emperor come to determine the crime of insulting the prince and concubine in public, and see if the 8000 million taels of silver is worth it, or your wife's head is worth more. "

Vanilla was not polite at all when she spoke, and Jiang Yuanlin's complexion turned pale, and he didn't dare to speak too much.

It is a serious crime to insult the prince of the current dynasty, let alone the Li Wang who is more favored than the prince, it is not just a matter of crime, but a matter of fate.

He stared at Zhao Shi and Bai Ling, seeing that the two lowered their heads, he knew that what Xiang Xiang said was probably true.He sighed in his heart, it was only because he spoiled his family too much when he was in Yongzhou, and left her to do everything, but the west is his own territory, no one dares to say no to the magistrate's wife, which not only makes the lady used to it When something goes wrong, it spoils the girls around her into lawlessness.

It's a pity, it's too late to regret it now, Jiang Yuanlin kept thinking about what General Huwei said before he left, even the dignified General Huwei was somewhat jealous of King Li and Princess Li, so what if he was dissatisfied?
That's it!

"Okay!" He nodded, "We agree. Lord Wang, please allow my followers to go back and fetch the bank notes."

Naturally, Wang Yuan wouldn't stop him, so he temporarily closed the hall until Jiang Yuanlin's entourage delivered a stack of banknotes to Xiang Cao, then announced Zhao's release in court, and reminded Jiang Yuanlin: "Remember Say thank you to Princess Li."

Ji Ling was so angry that he couldn't care less about the small talk, so he pulled Mrs. Zhao up and left without looking back.

Bai Lingben followed behind, but he didn't want to be kicked into the street by Jiang Yuanlin as soon as he left the gate of the court.This kick was so powerful that it made Bai Ling vomit blood.Some people frowned when they saw it, but some said it deserved it, such a girl, it would be best to kill her.

Even Wang Yuan turned a deaf ear to this, slaves have no human rights, masters have the right to decide their life and death, he just said to Xiang Cao: "Take the jade and send it back to the princess!"

Vanilla thanked him with a smile, then approached him and said, "My concubine said that she and His Royal Highness Prince Li will remember the kindness of Mr. Wang's many help."

Wang Yuan thanked repeatedly, and personally sent the vanilla out.

It was already noon when Xiangcao returned to Prince Li's Mansion, and Mu Shuyao was eating lunch. When she saw her coming, she said directly, "Reserve 6000 taels for the bank note, and send the other 2000 taels to Lingsongtang to give to Jiu Niang and open a branch for her." use."

Vanilla laughed and said, "Why is the princess so sure that this lawsuit will win?"

Mu Shuyao shrugged: "If you can't win this lawsuit, Wang Yuan's Jing Zhaoyin will be in vain."

Huarui even laughed at her and said, "Xiangcao, you are still holding that wooden box in your hand, how do you know?"

Xiang Cao looked at the wooden box in her hand and said with a wry smile: "I'm really confused." After finishing speaking, he put the box on the side of the table and opened the lid again, "The slaves have checked everything, nothing is missing, and nothing is broken."

This is the first time for Huarui to see these beautiful jades, and she was amazed for a while.But after all, she has cultivated her mental quality very well over the years, and she is still not as sensitive to this kind of thing as vanilla. She knows beauty and knows the value of these jade materials.

Mu Shuyao nodded and said, "Leave it alone, I'll put it away myself later. By the way, have you seen the prefect of Yongzhou?"

Vanilla replied: "I've seen it before. A person who is very domineering and hostile. During the interrogation, he was angry many times and expressed some dissatisfaction with the princess. The slave girl felt that if he hadn't moved out of the prince to come to the town in the end, I'm afraid I really can't hold him down."

Mu Shuyao snorted coldly, "There is General Huwei in the west now, and even a small magistrate has such momentum. I really don't know what it will be like when General Huwei returns in the new year."

But Xiangcao didn't pay attention to that General Huwei at all, and said disdainfully: "Then Wu Shaolin was originally the eldest prince's man, but now the eldest prince is paralyzed in the mansion, even Wu Shaolin can't make any waves .”

Mu Shuyao let out a sigh of relief, asked Huarui to scatter the food, and then said: "Prince, he is probably dishonest, even if Luo Yun is paralyzed, his mouth can still move, not to mention he has arranged and planned for so many years. , do you think he will be so honest now?

The eldest prince's people have ruled the western region for many years, and they have established a firm foothold there, and even established a small court. Although they are still under the control of Tianli, you also know that the people in the western region are very wild, and they submit to the tyranny of the force. It is easy for the first prince, but it is too difficult for them to submit to the Dashun court far away in the sky. "

Huarui frowned when she heard this: "Master, you mean that the eldest prince is still willing to give up, and wants to use the forces in the west to rebel?"

Vanilla covered Hua Rui's mouth and said, "Don't say such nonsense!"

But Mu Shuyao waved her hand, "It's okay, just talking, it's better if no one hears it, even if it is passed on by someone who cares, it should be a reminder to those far away in the west.

The emperor called so many officials from other provinces to gather in the capital for this Yuexi palace banquet. Chu Yuchen said that he just wanted to take this opportunity to see the reaction of the provinces. Look at the attitude of officials.The most important thing is that we have to pick out those who have other motives, especially the officials in Xitou, and we must know what to do. "

Both of them understood the meaning of Mu Shuyao's words, and for a while, neither of them made a sound.Things in the court are changing rapidly, and no one can tell what tomorrow will be. As servants, they only care about their masters, but there are some uncertain crises, and they still feel worried when they think about it.
