434. in the first place
"Qin Bohou used to be the emperor's personal guard, and in recent years, because of his work from the dragon, he was sent to Fujian as a general soldier, but over the years, the lord found out that he colluded with some officials of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households, and he was greedy for water conservancy projects to repair the river......
Qin Bohou has always been the emperor's confidant, and once helped the emperor kill the prince of Thailand when the emperor ascended the throne, so that the emperor was saved from falling into a fratricidal situation, the emperor has always treated him kindly, that is, he was unruly in the early years, and the emperor did not control it much, and this time he found out that he was greedy for ink in Fujian, and the courtiers below could not guess the emperor's thoughts, so they could only help cover up.
That's why Xie Jianning was impeached, and using the imperial historian to suppress political opponents is also what these courtiers are good at.
Qiao Shi pursed his lips, raised his eyes and glanced at Old Madam Xia, this matter is very important, even the four princes have to avoid it, and if they put it on the third prince, they may not be able to reach in, but now there is no other way but to try it like this.
She sighed silently in her heart, she has been in Fujian with Xie Jianning all these years, and she has also seen what the situation in Fujian is, the lord is really dedicated to the people, so he will take on these things at this juncture, the lord originally wanted to control the flood, and then expose the previous corruption case when repairing the river, who would have thought that there would be a natural disaster like the plague?
It's a pity that the ambition of the old man is so out of place.
Chan Yi heard it in her ears, but it was like thunder rolling in the sky, it turned out that Qin Bohou was robbed of his title because of this incident.
The flood in the southeast of the previous life ended with Qin Bohou's seizure of the title, and the eldest uncle and cousin Xuanyun came back and were directly promoted to the official position, she thought that it was because Qin Bohou was unfavorable, how did she know that there was such a thing.
Old Madam Xia's face also sank, "Since Qin Bohou used to be the emperor's personal bodyguard and has such merits, I am afraid that the emperor will also favor him, and this matter is not easy to do." β
Chanyi's eyes rolled, and when she saw that after Qiao Shi heard this, the expression on her face was not as depressed as before, and she realized that her grandmother's words meant that this matter was not easy to do, not that it could not be done, so she suddenly became suspicious and looked in the direction of Old Madam Xia.
Grandmother, is there any other way for her uncle to get out of trouble?
I listened to Mrs. Xia ponder for a moment and said: "Although Qin Bohou is an important minister with the merits of the dragon, the emperor may not necessarily tolerate him to make such a big mistake, didn't you say before that there was an imperial history to impeach Jianning? What is the emperor's reaction to this matter?"
Qiao said: "The third uncle came back and mentioned a sentence, saying that the emperor temporarily suppressed these impeachment folds, and didn't say anything, but there are usually such things, the third uncle said that he was afraid that the emperor would settle accounts after the autumn, and if there was no progress in the flood and plague at that time, I was afraid that the lord would be difficult to escape his duties." β
Old Madam Xia shook her head and smiled lightly, "Mrs. Xie is also in charge of the feed, if there is a personal mother-in-law to tell you that the subordinate who procures is greedy for ink and money, will you not send him down for the time being because he still has errands?"
Qiao's eyes lit up, and he said continuously: "Are you saying that the emperor doesn't believe in the impeachment of the imperial history, and the emperor wants to let the master check without any worries!"
When Chan Yi heard this, she suddenly felt that a light flashed in her mind, connecting all kinds of things in her past life and this life.
In the previous life, the Marquis of Qin Bohou was robbed of the title because of greed for ink, and his arrest directly led the various forces of Fujian to fall into the hands of the four princes, and what role did the four princes play in this life?
Why did he choose to be ill in this matter, and could it be that what he is doing now is just waiting for the right moment?
Chanyi thought deeply, the fourth prince first dragged the eldest uncle into the water in the name of saving the eldest uncle, and when he made such a fuss, the eldest uncle was put on the bright side, no matter what the eldest uncle was doing in Fujian, he promised to call him a favor......
Chan Yi instantly blessed the soul, he is using his uncle to test the emperor's attitude, if the emperor's attitude is tough, then he can be called infected in the body, smoothly withdraw from the deep pit of Fujian, if the emperor's attitude is ambiguous, then he can be cured, Fujian's greedy ink case in his hands, and in the end the emperor will put these credits on his head.
She thought about it again, this matter was really in line with the fourth prince's style as Prince Yi, he had always been able to save the country, compared to him, Chu Shaoyuan's approach was simply a word, simple and direct, and the purpose was clear.
If this matter is encountered by Chu Shaoyuan, I am afraid that he will directly expose Qin Bohou, and then look at the emperor's attitude.
Old Madam Xia pressed Qiao down and reminded: "Now it's just your and my speculation, I don't know if this is the case, but it can be confirmed that although the emperor's attitude is unknown, I am afraid that Lord Xie will continue to investigate this matter." β
Qiao Shi nodded again and again, and said as he got up: "I'll go back and write a letter to Master SΓΉ..."
"Auntie, you wait," Chanyi suddenly interrupted Qiao's words, " I think my grandmother's words are half right, in fact, the emperor may not value Qin Bohou, but because Qin Bohou was kind to the emperor back then, the emperor did not dispose of him, this time there is such an opportunity, the emperor will not let him go, I think if you want to investigate, you must investigate clearly, so as to give the emperor enough reasons to send Qin Bohou, so that the people in Fujian can really get benefits, if the uncle collects these criminal evidence, it is best to present it to the emperor in person, in order to wash away his notoriety of being impeached by the imperial history. β
Since the previous emperor did not defend Qin Bohou, I am afraid that he will not be defended in this life, and the eldest uncle has been put on the shelf, so it is necessary to make a name, otherwise how can he be worthy of the four princes so deliberate!
This is the first time that Chan Yi has clearly said her thoughts on the government, but it surprised Qiao's heart, her niece is just a thirteen-year-old girl, but she is so keen about the political situation, no wonder the third prince will like her.
Chanyi thought for a while and said: "As for the impeachment, I will write to the prince tonight and ask him to help suppress it together, and the flood and plague in Fujian should also ask my uncle to insist, as long as I survive, there will be a turnaround." β
Qiao Shi came back to his senses, nodded and smiled: "I've bothered you, and when this matter is over, my aunt will thank you again." β
β¦β¦
The rain in May cleared up after a few days, and even Fujian's usual rainy days were sunny.
The condition of the fourth prince has also improved with the weather, and his body has become more and more healthy these days, and he has been able to move around the courtyard freely.
At this time, he was sitting in the simple study, looking at the thick stack of account books that he had taken from Xie Jianning, and the corners of his mouth were smiling.
Xie Jianning still thought that the evidence of the crime was in these account books, and stared at it tightly, for fear of being seen, but he didn't know that the evidence had already been put away by him and put it in a proper place, as long as the time was ripe, he would immediately present it to his father and give Qin Bohou, who was above the top, a big lesson!
