As soon as the heavy snow has passed, the snow on the roadside has not completely melted, and another layer of clouds has shrouded the sky over the capital. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Qi Jinzhi went to Dali Temple every day as usual, in fact, as the New Year approached, the affairs of the various yamen had come to an end, just waiting for the end of the year to be sealed.

The chief officer has nothing to do, let alone a small five-grade official like Qi Jinzhi.

But he still went to the Yamen on time, not for anything else, just to get the latest news and the dynamics of Beijing.

“…… Today's news came that several counties in Hebei Province suffered a snow disaster, the heavy snow collapsed the houses, many people were homeless, and the wheat seedlings in the field also froze to death due to the extremely cold temperature, and the harvest in the coming year is not optimistic. ”

Qi Jinzhi returned home, looked at his two daughters, his tightly locked eyebrows slowly loosened, he lay on his back on the thickened carpet in the west wing, and let the two daughters crawl around on him.

The two little buns are almost five months old, Gu Jialuo takes care of them very carefully, and now the twins can no longer see any signs of premature babies, they are all white and fat, and their round little faces are flushed, and they are attractive when they look at them.

Qi Jinyi was wearing a homely thin cotton robe, his hair was loose, he pillowed his head with one hand, and supported his eldest daughter sitting on his chest with the other, and whispered to Gu Jialuo about the latest current affairs.

Gu Jialuo sat cross-legged beside Qi Jinzhi, and her youngest daughter Sister Fu was lying quietly in her arms, staring at the cloth bag doll in her hand with two big black eyes.

The doll is a cute duck, half a foot long, Gu Jialuo put it on his right hand, the thumb and the four fingers close together one by one, the bright yellow duck beak will open and open, and Sister Fu is fascinated.

"Uncle means there will be homeless people?"

Smallholder economies are poorly resilient to natural disasters, and a single natural disaster can destroy hundreds or even thousands of families. Once these people can no longer live, they can only leave their homes and go to other places to earn a living.

Qi Jinzhi supported Sister Xing'er's chubby little body and sighed: "I haven't received the corresponding news yet." But I think it's not that there are no displaced people, but that they are hidden by local officials. ”

The New Year is coming soon, and the whole court is full of joy, the saint feels that his rule is too peaceful and rich, and the courtiers are even more praised.

At this time, he reported that there was a disaster in his jurisdiction, and a large number of displaced people were generated.

The emperor is not happy, those officials still have good fruits to eat?

Therefore, this kind of thing can be concealed, but it really can't be hidden, and it will be delayed until the next year.

Gu Jialuo was in a heavy mood, handed the doll to the maid beside him, and Sister Fu was also taken away by the nurse who was very discerning.

On the other side, Sister Xing successfully climbed over the mountain of 'father', and like a triumphant general, she proudly climbed towards the pile of toys in front of her.

Her nurse and maids hurriedly caught up and followed inch by inch, lest the little ancestor have any accidents.

Qi Jinzhi turned over, looked at his daughters again with Gu Jialuo, and saw that they were tired of playing, and were carried to sleep by the nurse, so they returned to the west room together.

"Xiao Shisan came over at noon today, saying that it was already ready over there, just waiting for 'him' to do it."

Gu Jialuo sent the maids out and poured tea for Qi Jinzhi in person, and the husband and wife sat on the big kang, whispering while roasting the fire.

"'He' may take advantage of the affairs of the displaced people, alas, I don't know how many innocent people have been implicated."

Qi Jinzhi's face was still solemn, and as the time approached, his spirit became more and more tense. Often waking up in the middle of the night, seeing Gu Jialuo's quiet sleeping face next to the pillow, his wildly beating heart can calm down.

"By the way, grandfather is about to leave Beijing, right?"

Qi Jinzhi thought of another thing that worried him, and his expression became even more serious.

Gu Jialuo nodded, "Originally, my father wanted to go with my grandfather, but my grandfather didn't agree, and I said that my father needed to preside over the ancestor worship on Chinese New Year's Eve, and I forced my father to stay." I was going to bring my second uncle and cousin over. ”

Gu Chong's statement is too official, in fact, Gu Chong's stay in the capital is more to show his heart and appease the heart of a saint.

This has been the case since ancient times, when military generals go out to fight, their families have to stay in the capital as hostages.

Gu Ze'an is the prince, the future head of the Zhao State Mansion, and only he is the best candidate for hostage.

As soon as Gu Jialuo thought of this, his heart was blocked.

It is enough for the grandfather to go to the battlefield at a very old age to make people feel distressed, but the Gu family also has to prevent a traitor from designing a frame-up.

Shedding blood and then shedding tears is the greatest sorrow for the generals.

The Qi family is also a generational leader, and he understands these very well, and he sighed silently.

Both husband and wife fell silent, and the room was quiet, except for the whirring wind outside the window.

After a while, Qi Jin suddenly asked, "Ah Luo, do you feel that something is wrong with this plan?" ”

Gu Jialuo's heart sank, and he raised his eyes to look at Qi Jinzhi.

Qi Jinzhi pondered the words and said in a very soft voice: "Ah Luo, for some reason, I always feel that things are not simple, and there seems to be an inside story in this. ”

The husband and wife had repeatedly studied the whole plan, and on the surface, they cooperated with the master to find out the mastermind behind the scenes hidden in the capital. That is, the big boss who manipulated his subordinates to frame Qi Jinzhi in the southwest, plotted to kill Gu Jialuo, and planted eyeliner in the Four Great Mansions.

Qi Lingxian said to Qi Jinzhi that that person was very likely to be from the royal family, but I don't know if it was the brother, nephew or current prince of the first emperor.

But no matter who it is, it is a catastrophe for the royal family, and if there is such a person hiding in the dark to stir up the wind and rain, the capital and the court will not be stable.

Therefore, the saint will make up his mind to find out this person and clear him.

Master Miao Zhen got the emperor's secret order, secretly investigated, and then worked out a plan.

Qi Jinzhi and his wife were also involved.

Halfway through the implementation of the plan, the net has been opened, and it stands to reason that as the plan progresses, some things should become clearer.

However, Qi Jinzhi was even more confused, and sometimes he even had the illusion of being in a fog.

Qi Jinzhi didn't want to think too badly, but he just felt that he was being taken advantage of.

He wouldn't doubt Gu Jialuo, but he couldn't completely trust Master Miaozhen.

Gu Jialuo bit his lip, thought about it again and again, and said in a low voice: "Don't hide it from uncle, I, I also have a bad premonition." ”

The husband and wife looked at each other, exchanged glances with each other, and after a long time, the two slowly nodded.

Maybe it was because of the words, Qi Jinzhi and Gu Jialuo's emotions were much soothed, and when they went to bed, the two of them had a rare good sleep.

But before they knew it, in the quiet of the night, the gloomy sky was once again snowing.

The snow flakes with goose feathers fluttered all night, and the houses of many poor farmers in the suburbs of Beijing could not bear the weight of the snow, and the roofs collapsed while the farmers were still sleeping...... (To be continued.) )
