Chapter 984: When the Water is Clear, There Are No Fish (2)
At noon on this day, the family gathered together to eat. The lunch was particularly sumptuous, with 16 dishes and one soup. However, because there are many dishes, the amount is relatively small.
After eating the jujubes, he touched his round belly and said, "I haven't eaten so hearty for a long time." ”
Yuxi glanced at the jujubes, how could she look like a girl, but she didn't bother to say it now, she just turned her head, out of sight.
Liu Er couldn't see it, so she walked over and took the jujube hand: "Eldest sister, I have something to tell you!"
After the two sisters left, the triplets also left, leaving Qihao without leaving.
Yunqing glanced at Qihao and asked, "Ah Hao, is there something wrong?" Why did everyone have something to tell Yuxi when they came back, but none of the children had anything to say to him. Thinking about it, Yunqing was a little frustrated.
Qi Hao hesitated.
Yuxi smiled and asked, "Is it your uncle's business?" Seeing that Qihao was still hesitating, Yuxi said: "Ayou told us last night that he suspected your uncle of corruption and bribery. ”
Yun Qing frowned and said, "Ah Hao, do you also think that your uncle has embezzled and taken bribes?" If Qi Hao also thinks so, then this matter is serious.
Qi Hao shook his head and said: "It's not enough to be corrupt and take bribes, but it is certain to use power for personal gain." "Han Jianming is the governor of Jiangnan, and it would be too stupid to be corrupt.
This is the same thing Yuxi thought. Yun Qing's face was solemn, and after a while, he looked at Yuxi and said, "If the eldest brother really uses his power for personal gain, Yuxi, what should we do?"
Yuxi no longer had a smile on his face at this time, but he did not respond to Yunqing's words.
Qi Hao was silent and said: "Dad, mother, if the uncle's condition is not serious, he can be dismissed." ”
Yuxi sighed and asked, "Why do you say that?" Even if this matter is very serious, it can't be put on the table to deal with.
Qi Hao lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that my mother will be difficult to do." ”
Yunqing looked at Yuxi and said, "Yuxi, what do you think?" If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, in case Han Jianming really uses his power for personal gain, then he will have to deal with it.
Yuxi looked at Yunqing and said, "You are going to send troops next year, and you can't transfer the eldest brother back to Ho City before that." "Yuxi is talking about transfer, not removal.
Yun Qing immediately understood Yuxi's concerns: "You're right, even if the eldest brother is inappropriate, he has to wait until the battle is over." ”
Qi Hao understood the meaning of Yuxi's words. His uncle has been in Jiangnan for many years, and he must have attracted many people. If you change people rashly, it will not be so easy to raise food and grass at that time, and the grain and grass will not be able to keep up, and there will be no need to fight this battle.
Yuxi looked at Yunqing and said, "Herui, I have something I want to say to Qi Hao, can you go back to the house first?" It's not that you can't let Yun Qing listen, but I'm afraid that Qi Hao won't be able to save face.
The biggest advantage of Yunqing is that it is generous and does not think too much. Like now, if it were replaced by other men, he would definitely not be comfortable in his heart, but Yunqing did not.
There were only two mother and son left in the house, and Yuxi opened his mouth and asked, "You said that the situation is light on your uncle's position, if the situation is serious, how do you think you should deal with it?"
Qi Hao didn't think about it and said: "Deal with it according to the law." "If you dare to do something that violates the law and discipline, you must be prepared to pay the price.
Yuxi shook his head and said, "Even if your uncle uses his power for personal gain, my mother can't dispose of him." At most, he will be transferred back to Ho City and given him a false position to prevent him from holding real power. ”
In Qihao's heart, Yuxi has always been a person who never favoritism. So after hearing this, Qi Hao asked incredulously, "Why?"
In the end, he is young, and many things are not well considered. Yuxi said: "Your uncle abandoned the title of the grandfather of the country and the family to join his mother, if his mother dealt with him, what would outsiders think? A person who can't even tolerate his own brother, what do civil and military officials think, and how can others dare to submit?" The most important thing is that Yuxi is still very grateful to Han Jianming in his heart. As long as Han Jianming does not betray her, she will protect the prosperity and wealth of the Han family if she lives. It's just that she won't tell Qihao about these things.
Qi Hao really didn't expect this.
Yuxi remembered and said: "Besides, if you dispose of your uncle, your grandmother will have a bad time, and then your mother will be charged with unfilial piety." "Filial piety comes first, how can an unfilial person manage the country well. It may be fine in a short period of time, but it will definitely leave a huge hidden danger.
Qi Hao lowered his head with some shame: "Mother, it's me who didn't think about it." ”
Yuxi touched Qihao's head and said softly: "Ah Hao, if the water is clear, there will be no fish." Unless it is a felony of treason or a crime against the people, we will not be spared. Something like using power for personal gain, even if it is exposed, it can't kill your uncle. "The punishment is certain, but it can't kill him, and if it is not exposed, it can't be dealt with openly.
Qi Hao's brows furrowed.
Yuxi didn't force Qihao to accept her point of view immediately, some things will only know how difficult it is to do when you are in it: "This thing hasn't come to a conclusion yet, maybe it's just that we think too much." "Han Jianming's letter, Yuxi didn't show it to Qihao.
Qi Hao nodded: "Mother, I'll go back." ”
Yuxi hummed and said, "If you can't figure it out, you can ask your teacher and see how he answers." "Since I am a teacher, I should answer students' questions.
Back in the bedroom, Yun Qing saw Yuxi's tired face: "Thank you for your hard work." "Qihao is assertive, but it's not easy to teach.
Yuxi relayed her conversation with Qi Hao, and after finishing speaking, she smiled and said, "No matter how smart Ah Hao is, he is only twelve years old, and he can't think about many things. "I am young and inexperienced, and I think about many things too simply.
Yun Qing smiled and said, "You teach him more." ”
Yuxi nodded and said, "Now I know why I want to wait for Qihao to be twenty-five years old before he can take power, right? After two years, I am going to let him enter the Ministry of Rites as an errand boy." ”
"You can do it. After a pause, Yunqing said, "I want to take Ah Hao with me next year." ”
Yuxi smiled and nodded.
Qi Hao returned to the courtyard and called Brother Hua over: "Did Qi You tell you that the Han family is richer than the palace?"
Hua Ge'er shook his head and said, "I didn't say it, but I feel that he has a lot of opinions about the Han family." However, the Han family's life is indeed a bit luxurious, and I have already mentioned this to my father. "He never hid anything from Qi Hao.
Qi Hao's pupils shrank, and then he asked with a smile, "What did Uncle say?"
Hua Ge'er said: "My father was very surprised. After a pause, Brother Hua looked at Qi Hao and said: "Shizi, my father is the prince of the Guogong Mansion, and he has been clothed and fed since he was a child, so he didn't think that the life of the Han Mansion was too rich." ”
Qi Hao still had a smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes: "Are you excusing your uncle for this?"
Hua Ge'er shook his head and said, "No, I'm just telling the truth." When I told him about it, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. Shizi, I am also a part of the Han family, since I see that something is wrong, I will definitely say it. After speaking, Brother Hua looked at Qihao and said, "Shizi, I don't dare to guarantee that my father is fine, but I believe that he will not do anything that crosses the bottom line." ”
Thinking of Yuxi's words, Qi Hao's heart turned and asked, "If Uncle does something that violates the law, what do you think should be done with it?"
Hua Ge'er was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Shizi, aren't you embarrassing me? If my father violates the law, the princess will definitely deal with it." ”
Qi Hao asked, "Then what do you think my mother will do?" After speaking, he added: "Tell the truth." ”
Hua Ge'er was silent and said, "My father is not only the princess's brother, but also her right-hand man. As long as it is not a felony such as rebellion and rebellion, I think my aunt will be dealt with lightly. ”
After Qi Hao hummed, he didn't speak again.
A month later, Yang Duoming's secret letter came into Yuxi's hands. After reading the letter, Yuxi's brows relaxed: "Send someone to call the prince over." ”
Hearing that it was Yuxi who summoned him, Mr. asked Qihao to hurry over. Because Mr. knew that it didn't matter, Yuxi would not summon Qihao over at this time.
Seeing Qi Hao, Yuxi gave him the secret letter: "This is the result of Yang Duoming's investigation, you can take a look." ”
According to Yang Duoming's investigation, the largest restaurant and silk shop in Jinling have shares of the Han family, in addition to the Han family also doing some other business, and the Han family also has two large farms in Jinling. Together, these have an annual income of forty or fifty thousand taels of silver. This silver is enough for the expenses of the Han government.
After reading it, Qi Hao frowned and said, "Mother, those expensive furnishings in the Han Mansion, any thing is worth a thousand gold. Yang Duoming did not mention these in the secret letter.
Yuxi said: "A few years ago, my mother cleaned Jiangnan and copied the homes of those anti-thieves. It was at that time that the things used by the Han Mansion were obtained. "Most of the things that were fried were registered and shipped to Pickaxe City, and a small part was left by everyone.
After hearing this, Qi Hao asked, "Isn't that enriching your own pocket?" However, it is much better than using power for personal gain.
Yuxi still said: "When the water is clear, there are no fish." It is unrealistic to want them to go into the treasury without taking a penny. Even if you go to war, you will leave a part of the spoils of war and divide them. As long as it is not excessive, this matter should not be pursued. ”
Qi Hao frowned and said, "But Uncle has left too much, right?"
Yuxi nodded and said: "It's a bit too much, but he abandoned his entire family business in order to defect to his mother, and these are the compensation that his mother gave him!"
Qihao also knew that Han Jianming gave up a lot when he came to Ho City, and Yuxi wanted to make up for Han Jianming, even if he had an opinion, he couldn't say it. Qi Hao said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm afraid that my uncle doesn't understand your hard work." ”
Yuxi smiled and said, "Your uncle's greatest wish is to revitalize the Han family and let the Han family enter the center of power. So, he's not going to put the cart before the horse. ”
Qi Hao nodded and said, "Mother, my uncle has been in Jiangnan for so many years, and he will be transferred back when he conquers the capital!"
Yuxi nodded and said, "Wait for the capital to be taken, and then you don't need your mother to speak, your uncle will take the initiative to return to the capital." ”
This was a bit informative, and Qi Hao was very surprised: "Mother, do you mean that we will move to the capital after taking the capital?" Seeing Yuxi nodding, Qi Hao asked: "Mother, does my father know about this?"
Yu Xi smiled and said, "What do you say?" How could such a big matter not be discussed with Yunqing.
Qi Hao also felt that the question just now was a little stupid: "So dad agreed?"
Not yet, but he didn't object. "Yunqing said at the time that the capital has not been won yet, and it is too early to say this.
Qi Hao said with a smile: "I heard that the capital is more prosperous than Jinling, but I have some expectations." ”
"Your father means to send troops next year, and let you follow you when the time comes. What about your opinion?" Although he knew that Qi Hao would like to follow without asking, Yuxi still had to ask.
Qi Hao smiled and his eyebrows crooked: "Of course I went." By the way, mother, the eldest sister's health is almost better, will she come with us next year?"
Yuxi didn't give a definite answer: "It depends!" If her body healed, she would definitely not stop it.
At this time, Han Jianming, who was far away in Jiangnan, was very irritable. Han Jianming has been in Jiangnan for so many years, and he has many eyes and ears. Yang Duo checked him clearly, how could he not know. It's just that Brother Hua's words are in front, so he doesn't dare to act rashly.
Mr. Zhao comforted him and said, "Don't worry, master, I believe that the princess should not believe the fourth young master." ”
Han Jianming smiled bitterly and said, "If you don't believe Brother You'er's words, Yuxi won't let Yang Duoming check me." After a pause, Han Jianming said, "I was too careless." He didn't expect Qiyou to be so sensitive.
Mr. Zhao said: "Yang Duoming has a good relationship with the master, and I believe he will not do something out of nothing." "No one is perfect, Han Jianming has also done some outrageous things over the years, but there is no big mistake. Now is the time to employ people, and he believes that the princess will not punish Han Jianming severely for some small mistakes.
"I shouldn't make something out of nothing, I'm afraid that the princess will have a pimple in her heart. "It's also been in Jiangnan for a long time, I lost my vigilance, and if I didn't pay attention, I caused this turmoil.
Mr. Zhao said: "The lord gave up so much for the princess that day. The princess should not punish you severely for this matter. ”
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "Forget it, this time is a lesson, we have to pay more attention in the future." There will always be a light of light for this kind of affection, so he is the last willing to use it.
As he was talking, he heard the chief follow him outside: "Master, General Fang Xingfang asks to see you." ”
After talking, Han Jianming returned to the main courtyard.
When Xiang heard that Han Jianming was coming back, he hurriedly got up from the chaise longue, walked over with a smile on his face, and said, "Master, you're back." After becoming pregnant, Xiang not only did not become ugly, but his face was radiant and shiny. It is said that the pregnant child is ugly, and the pregnant girl becomes beautiful. In private, many people said that Xiang's fetus was afraid that it was a daughter, and this word also reached Xiang's ears. However, because of Han Jianming's words, she felt that it was nothing to give birth to a daughter.
Han Jianming didn't speak yet, but just looked at the room. I saw a tiger-striped leather quilt on the rosewood chaise longue against the wall in the room. The tiger fur is soft and flat, with clear markings and bright color.
It's okay if you don't pay attention to it on weekdays, but now that you look at it, Han Jianming is a little afraid. Everything in this house is worth a lot of money, and the layout of the courtyard where Yuxi lives is not so rich, no wonder Qiyou will feel uncomfortable.
Xiang keenly felt that Han Jianming was not quite right: "Master, what's wrong?"
Han Jianming said lightly: "The furnishings in this house are too extravagant, you can change them all!" Because the Xiang family had never brought it to Ho City, Han Jianming said more: "The place where the palace lives is not as luxurious as your house." ”
Xiang Shi is not stupid, his face changed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "I will change these things tomorrow." "No matter what, you can't get past the prince and the princess.
