Chapter 951: Send Me to the Docks, Quick!
cpa300_4(); I just felt a "buzz" in my ears, and the whole person froze there.
"What?!"
"Have you seen Li'er? Has Li'er come back? ”
I hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her arm and glared at her hard, "What did you say?" What's wrong with Li'er? ”
"Today, Li'er said that she wanted to cross the river to have a look, I thought that there was nothing to do, so I took her over, but who knows-" Han Ruoshi also gasped slightly, and when she said this, her voice couldn't come out, and she barely breathed a sigh of relief before she continued: "When we crossed the river, we found that there were many people at the official ferry over there, and it was crowded, as if something big had happened." As a result, when we crossed the river and got on the road, we heard from the people in Yangzhou that the governor of Yangzhou was going to sea today. ”
"What?!"
I was stunned.
Yangzhou Mansion's Mansion Yin goes to sea?
Liu Qinghan, he went to sea today?!
I suddenly felt a mess in my head, and my whole body was also chaotic at this time.
He's going to sea?!
Yes, that's right, of course he's going to sea.
Francophone artillery, this matter has been in the light of day, with Pei Yuanhao's personality, it is impossible to give up such sharp weapons, let alone let them fall into the hands of others, so it is inevitable to go to sea to find it.
But why him?!
He is just a scholar, the governor of Yangzhou Mansion, no matter how powerful he is, he is only a civil official, in the hands of Pei Yuanxiu, he forcibly pulled Yangzhou back, it is already nine deaths, why do you want him to go to sea to find the Franco machine artillery, doesn't that put him in the most dangerous situation?
But, that's all.
After all, he himself said that the food of the king bears the worries of the king.
But--Li'er?!
I grabbed Han Ruoshi's hand and couldn't help but tighten, and my fingertips pinched out a few blood marks on her snow-white wrist.
Han Ruoshi groaned slightly in pain, but she couldn't break free from my hands, so she could only grit her teeth and endure the pain: "As soon as she heard about it, she was very anxious to go to the dock to see." I had no choice but to take her over, but there were so many people on the dock that as soon as we got there, we were swept away by the crowd, and I couldn't find her everywhere, and I was worried that she wouldn't find me, so she came back by herself - after all, I heard from Childe that she had crossed the river by boat last time......"
Before she could finish her sentence, I let go of her hand and rushed out the door.
"Sister ...... Baby"
Han Ruoshi's voice sounded behind me, and one of my legs just stepped out of the door, but it stopped.
"Sister Qingying?"
She was still standing there looking at me, but when she saw me turn around with a pale face, she walked towards the house.
She seemed to be completely unable to keep up with my pace, and it was a little difficult to even walk a few more steps, and she could not stop me, so she could only call out to the maids who were hurrying not far away, and asked them to follow me.
|
I was walking around the house at a fast pace.
This huge mansion, in fact, I haven't completely figured it out, before Pei Yuanxiu only took me and Li'er to play through some places, but I still secretly took a few of the more important positions, including the front, through a long corridor, I saw a quiet small courtyard, a few budding plum branches appeared on the wall of the corner of the courtyard, and inside, it was the place where Pei Yuanxiu was busy every day.
Cabinet.
At this time, however, it is very quiet.
I hurried over and pushed open the door, only to see that it was empty, and there was no one inside.
"Yuan Xiu?"
I went into the room and looked at both sides, although there was still a side hall, which was covered by a beaded curtain, but the curtain was quiet and did not even move.
Strange, didn't he say that he still had some things to do today, why wasn't he in the Cabinet?
Moreover, Han Zitong is not there.
I was suddenly anxious, although the weather was cold, cold sweat came out - if one of them was there, they could immediately dispatch people, after all, there were so many people coming and going on the dock, and I was alone, even if I brought Han Ruoshi and a few maids around, it would not be enough to find it.
But where did they go?
I was so anxious that I couldn't help but reach out and slam the table hard, and hurriedly turned around and walked out.
At that moment, a mountain of paperwork on the desk fell and landed at my feet with a click, and I crouched down and picked it up.
And the words on it were also clearly reflected in my eyes-
Runan Yuan urgently told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Runan Yuan?
These words pierced my eyes like the tip of a needle.
Runan, Yuan? If I'm not mistaken, the Yuan clan is a well-known family in the Henan Province area, which is almost equivalent to the status of the Han family in the Jiangnan region, but Henan Province is the closest to the Gyeonggi region, and it is also the first place where the imperial family took it.
But their status is no different from that of the king of Runan.
What I didn't expect was that they actually secretly had dealings with Pei Yuanxiu, and in the letters, they even called Pei Yuanxiu "prince"!?
My heart suddenly chuckled, and I didn't have time to open the paperwork to read it carefully, so I hurriedly stood up.
The other paperwork on the table -
I picked up another one, with the inscription "The Marquis of Jin Urgently Sends a Letter to His Royal Highness the Prince".
There is also - the princes in the clouds are called His Royal Highness the Prince.
……
Looking through them one by one, all those documents, from different regions and different famous families, all of them have the same name.
His Royal Highness the Prince!
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince......
I looked at these words, obviously so familiar, and I had called them countless times in the palace, but at this time, behind the simple white paper and black letters, there was a burst of blood, as if it was going to dye the whole world red in an instant.
In my ears, a familiar voice sounded, and said with deep worry-
“…… Those powerful and noble, they only have interests in their eyes, there is no courtesy, they will not be loyal to the king, whoever gives them benefits, who protects their interests, they will support whom. ”
“…… But what about the rest of the world? Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi...... Although there is no king in those places, there is also the same power of powerful gentry like the Han sisters, the emperor is now bullying and weakening them, their interests have been violated, will they still serve the emperor as the king......"
"Moreover, just in the south of the Yangtze River, such a big civil unrest can be caused, if those powerful gentry in other places are also-"
"If, these people unite again......"
My heart throbbed, and my fingers holding a book tightened almost spasmically.
The paper was crumpled in my hands.
Wei Ningyuan's words, his worries ...... It seems to be about to become a reality!
Pei Yuanhao's implementation of the new policy in the Central Plains, including a large part of the reform of the tax system, did violate the interests of those powerful gentry, and as he said, these people have no idea of loyalty to the king, only the greed to pursue interests, if the imperial power can not guarantee their interests, but to seize the interests from their hands, then their final choice will be......
I looked down at the four words written on the paperwork scattered on the table.
His Royal Highness the Prince!
At this moment, the door that had been blown away by the wind slammed open again, and slammed into the walls on both sides, and I looked up sharply, and saw several attendants hurrying in, and when they saw me standing by the table, their faces suddenly changed.
"Ma'am?!"
"How did Madame get here?"
"The son has already ordered, Madame should go back to the inner courtyard to rest."
……
I settled down, put the crumpled paperwork in my hand back on the table, turned to look at their somewhat stunned expressions, and said calmly, "I want to come to him." What about Yuan Xiu, where are the others? ”
"Childe is not in the Chamber."
"Really?"
A few of them had already made a "please" gesture at the door, and I also walked out from the good stream, but the mood did not relax because I walked out of that room, but became more depressed: "Li'er is gone, I want to find Yuan Xiu, or Miss Zitong, and ask them to quickly send someone to the dock and cross the river to find it." ”
"Miss Leave?"
Those few looked at each other, and they were also startled, obviously, the previous departure had left a deep shadow on them.
I took a deep breath: "What about the Yuan cultivators?" ”
They glanced at each other, and one of them said, "Madame Hui, today is the day when Yao Lao's ship is going to sea, so Gongzi and Miss Zitong have also gone to the riverside." ”
"What? Yao Lao's ship is going to sea today? ”
"Yes. Early in the morning, Childe and they all passed. ”
“……”
"Ma'am? What's wrong with you, ma'am? ”
"Madame, are you feeling unwell?"
Several of them were completely frightened by my suddenly pale face, and they stepped forward one after another, and at this time, the maids who followed after listening to Han Ruoshi's orders also came over, and when they saw me like this, they all came forward to support me, and said anxiously: "Madame, is she uncomfortable?" We hurried to the doctor. ”
"Let's go!"
I gritted my teeth, barely stood up with their support, and raised my hand: "No. ”
"Ma'am?"
"Madame, how are you?"
I subconsciously wanted to push their hands away, but I found that my hands and feet were still out of strength, and I had no way to support my crumbling body, so I could only reluctantly stand against them.
Biting my lower lip so hard that I almost broke it, I struggled for a long time before I slowly raised my head and said to two of the maids, "Go to the inner courtyard at once, and pack up a few of my clothes, the thicker the better." ”
"Ma'am, what is this for?"
"No need to ask. After packing up, immediately send it to the dock. ”
“……”
The two of them glanced at each other, and they didn't know what the problem was, but they immediately leaned over and said, "Yes, madam." ”
After speaking, he turned around and hurriedly walked towards the inner courtyard.
I raised my head again, looked at the other attendants, and said a little dryly, "Send me to the docks." ”
“……”
"Quick!"
