"The Ministers Have Their Own ......"

The follow-up matters of the Ryukyus were handled very smoothly, (can it not go well, after Hai Rui took the head of the little treasure pad, he almost wiped out all the savings of the Dutch on the island over the years!) So at this day's court meeting, Li Desheng gave a rare face to the ministers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But...... Some people don't know how to cherish it at all!

"Your Majesty, Prince Duan abolishes his duties, he is so happy, he privately sends troops to attack the Ryukyus, despises the imperial court, despises the emperor's grace, and ignores the coastal people...... "Balabala, Jiang Yushi quoted the classics, impassioned, and did not look at Li Desheng's black face that gradually cooled down.

After saying that Prince Duan, Jiang Yushi was still not addicted, and continued to bombard Princess Duan, "Shu Qinglan, the political secretary of Qiongzhou, disregarded the national etiquette and law, used the public for personal gain, embezzled and accepted bribes, and used his position to open the door of convenience for King Duan, and made enemies with neighboring countries, and collected people's property ......"

Ji Zhaoya silently adjusted her cuffs and cursed secretly: Idiot!

If Li Desheng still couldn't understand whose team this Jiang Yushi was standing on before, it was very obvious now.

After scanning it at a glance, only the Su Wang Party, the Yan Party and the Ji faction represented by Lou Ge Lao did not move.

Li Desheng received a full of fine light, Pei's ah, Pei's, you are too anxious!

Pei Guifei has always been direct in her work, and she has never shied away from her ambitions. For all the obstacles that stand in the way of her son's path to becoming an emperor, she will find a way to clear them one by one, such as Shu Qinglan, the Lin family and the Zhu family.

Shu Qinglan has no foundation and is relatively easy to deal with, as long as King Duan is no longer King Duan, then Shu Qinglan is nothing. Isn't the emperor and King Duan brothers? That's good, this palace will sow discord, who won't take eye medicine~, if it doesn't work once, twice, if it doesn't work twice, it will be three times, and if you don't have a chance, you have to create an opportunity to provoke! It is said that there is no family affection in the heavenly family, and ordinary people only leave three points of affection when they meet, and King Duan can't come back for a while, and there is more time in the palace!

As for the Lin family, Pei Guifei's strategy was to persuade the Lu family and King Su to make a move, and promised King Su that if the Lin family could be brought down, the Northwest and Northwest armies would be King Su's. She didn't believe that the Lin family had been operating in the northwest for so many years, and it was impossible for them to have no trouble at all, even if they didn't have it before, they didn't have it now, and so on.

There is also a worry-free Zhu family, who is in charge of the military department and the arsenal, and is also Zhu Yuanrong's biggest backer. Hmph, this palace has prepared a big gift for them, and I'm waiting to see the dog eat the dog!

Of course, Concubine Pei knew that doing so was very likely to cause the emperor's dissatisfaction, but she was not afraid, she had a son. Moreover, for Concubine Pei, who is lonely in the deep palace, the throne is her only way out, and it is also all the motivation for her to live.

Li Desheng admitted that he was aware of most of Pei's plans, but did not stop or interfere. As a superior, Li Desheng is clear about his responsibilities and adheres to the rules of the game of "natural selection, survival of the fittest".

It's just that Pei's eagerness makes Li Desheng dislike it and at the same time very suspicious, is the matter of competing for the crown prince Pei Qingzhi's idea or Pei's family? Could it be that Pei already knows that I...

The young emperor raised the corners of his mouth, where did she know?

"Your Majesty," in the face of Jiang Yushi's sudden attack, the first to stand up for Thirteen and Qinglan was their teacher Ji Zhaoya, "There is the deep brotherhood of the Ban family in the front, and the Su family is in the back, and His Royal Highness King Duan is the emperor's younger brother, so he thinks about what the emperor thinks, and is anxious about what the emperor is anxious about." The Ryukyu Islands ......"

"Just because His Royal Highness King Duan is the younger brother of the saint, he is unscrupulous in doing things!" Jiang Yushi was quick to speak, and interrupted Ji Zhaoya's words very impolitely.

Zhang Juzheng frowned imperceptibly, obviously very dissatisfied with this "dead pig is not afraid of boiling water" Jiang Yushi.

To bite the king is to bite Shu Qinglan, to bite Shu Qinglan is to bite Ji's, and to bite him Zhang Juzheng!

It seems that Pei Guifei is really too idle.

Li Desheng sneered, "Jiang Qing means that my majesty is not strict and conniving at King Duan, so I am the culprit, is Jiang Qing going to join me next, so as to pave the way for your master?! ”

Tut-tut, all the ministers and workers all looked at Jiang Yushi, before the situation became clear, the people of King Su and the Yan Party would not make speeches easily, watch the play, and those who are not afraid of death will stand on it~!

"The minister is frightened," Jiang Yushi's expression was not panicked at all, and even had some righteous and awe-inspiring meaning, "The minister is a subject of Dashun, and he has always kept the four words virtuous and good in his heart!" ”

******

Since the court successfully recovered the Ryukyus, the impeachment of the two Qinglan in the court has not stopped.

What Shu Qinglan connived at King Duan to recruit thieves, raise private soldiers, and collude with pirates to occupy the territory of the subject country; What Shu Qinglan used power for personal gain, looted the fat and ointment of the people of Qiongzhou, enslaved the people to build ships for the Duanwang industry, and worked the people and lost money; What else is corrupt and bribery, plundering other people's property, supporting the army and self-respect, bringing great pressure and hidden dangers to the imperial court...

Qinglan threw the official document aside, "Just say that we want to rebel~!" ”

Thirteen smiled without saying a word, pinning the fire to his waist, "The cover you embroidered for me last time is broken, you have to make it up for me?" ”

"Oh," Qinglan pulled out a new set and handed it to him, "What else to make up, if it's broken, it's lost." ”

Thirteen took it with a rare face, mainly because Qinglan was too busy on weekdays, and she was rarely a female celebrity. After taking the fire down and putting it on again, the thirteen daughters-in-law said, "Don't take (the matter of impeachment) to heart. "Yes, when the master returns to Beijing, he will definitely invite these imperial historians to drink tea.

Qinglan lowered her head and drooped her shoulders, "I can see it, they are 'building momentum' for us, the so-called crowd is accumulating gold and destroying bones, and there are many rumors, everyone will naturally think that we are like that." Once in the future..."

Once you do something "out of line" in the future, okay, the remarks attacking your own house will come like a sea of mountains.

Thirteen didn't care, "Are you ready for the congratulatory gift?" ”

is talking about giving Lin Yinfei's daughter a 100-day gift.

Because it was too far away, by the time Qinglan received the letter, the Lin family's precious daughters were all full moon.

"It's ready," Qinglan still can't lift her spirits, she is still struggling to walk in such a position, you can imagine those poor children... It's bitter~!

"What have the Lu family been doing lately?" Qinglan keenly smelled that something was wrong, and always felt that King Su and his wife were not the fuel-efficient lamps.

"I heard that the Lu family's caravan passed through the northwest more than 20 times in a year." Thirteen left people in the capital, but the news sent was relatively late.

The Lu family's caravan has always been a horse seller and a medicinal herb in the Western Regions, and it is indeed an exaggeration to make so many trips back and forth in a year.

Qinglan couldn't help but fall into deep thought, what did the Lu family want to do?

******

Qin San held the medicine box uneasily, for fear of alarming the people in the room, so he carefully slipped along the corridor. This figure and trend really look like a thief, but it is the first secret guard around the emperor who leads the way, is this reasonable?

Qin San was sweating behind his back, he didn't care about being reasonable or unreasonable at the moment, he just wanted to get to his destination quickly.

The moonlight tonight was as white as new, but the two of them who were quietly moving forward had no time to appreciate it.

Passing through the empty corridor and bypassing the high palace wall, the two came to a courtyard, and Qin San was led by Wu Qi to a well platform.

If it weren't for Qin San's self-knowledge, he would have thought that this Lord Secret Guard was planning to abandon his own corpse and dry up the well.

"Go down."

The well platform was easily moved away by Wu Qi, revealing half of the stone steps.

Qin San pursed his lips with some disgust, fortunately, it was dark and Wu Qi didn't see it. But Qin San had a ghost in his heart, and he was almost slipped by the wet and sticky moss.

"Be careful." Wu Qi helped him and followed closely behind Qin San, and when he came down, he didn't forget to restore the well platform.

"Let's go, let's go..."

Qin San groped his way forward in the dark, the musty smell in the tunnel mixed with rancid stench, and the air was wet with a hint of rust.

"Wow-"

Wu Qi lit the fire, and Qin San saw the torch in his hand the moment he turned around. This is... Where are you going?

After walking for about an hour, maybe longer, the two finally arrived at a hidden underground palace. The yin wind blew, the light in the room flickered on and off, and Qin San swore that when he stepped into the threshold just now, he inadvertently caught a glimpse of the tablet placed in the side hall.

Oh my God, what the hell is this place? Qin San's heart was furious, as if tens of thousands of cockroaches were crawling at the same time.

Wu Qi grabbed his arm and motioned for him to follow.

Passing through the main hall, Qin San found that there was a small courtyard behind it, although he couldn't see anything at night, but from the neat green bricks under his feet, it was not difficult to find that this place was very elegant and exquisite.

"Oooo

"Squeak~"

The door opened, and the man was holding a candle in his hand, and Qin San could clearly see the appearance of the person who came.

(⊙ o ⊙)！

How, how...

It was obviously midnight in summer, but Qin San was like falling into an ice cave.

******

"Back to Beijing? Right now? ”

Before coming to Qiongzhou, Qinglan thought that she would stay here for five or six years anyway, but now... It's a little early, it's not so tormenting!

Thirteen was silent for a few seconds, "Pack up now, travel lightly, let's go back on the Qiongzhou." ”

Qinglan was stunned, "So urgent? "What the hell happened in Beijing?

Thirteen raised his eyebrows, "I don't know, Brother Huang... (The news from the came) only said that he would return to Beijing quickly. ”

Qinglan was silent, "Is it as long as you go back or... Shall we be a family? ”

Thirteen looked at his daughter-in-law firmly, "I can't leave you and the child outside, I'm sorry..."

Qinglan sighed heavily, "When are we leaving?" "It's the Midyear Festival in a few days, and it's time to hurry... Not very lucky, right?

"Three days, three days later early in the morning."

The next day, Qinglan looked at the panda and explained the itinerary to Beijing to the people.

The happiest thing is a group of maids, especially the natives of Beijing, who were so happy that they burst into tears when they heard that they were going back to Beijing.

In Qinglan's eyes, the scenery of Qiongzhou is beautiful, much thinner than the humanistic atmosphere of the capital, and it is natural. In the eyes of these maids, it has become a poor country, an isolated island on the border, and it is independent and left behind.

"Sister, I won't go back with you." Ming Zhuang likes it here, I don't know if it's because of the people here, or because of the scenery here, or... It's a freedom that I haven't had before.

"You..." As a cousin, Qinglan is well aware of Mingzhuang's sensitive heart, and when she encounters problems, she will give her cousin advice, but she will definitely not interfere with his decision. You have to take good care of yourself. ”

Ming Zhuang smiled gratefully at Qinglan, "Wow~!" Sister, don't worry, help me take care of the second uncle and the second aunt. ”

Qinglan responded on her lips, but muttered in her heart, I don't know if my father and mother will follow Mingyu back to Beijing, after all, grandpa and third grandpa... They are all old, especially the third grandfather, who has been recuperating in the past few years, and his body is good and bad.

Perhaps the orders of the two masters were too much in line with everyone's wishes, and the things were packed quickly, but in the afternoon of the next day, Qinglan found that many servants were wandering outside, as if they were just waiting for their own orders, and the army was mobilized.

On the morning of the third day, a group of local officials sent Cheng Yi, most of whom were local specialties.

To be honest, Qinglan likes Qiongzhou more than she imagined, the people here are quite simple, and the officials' minds are relatively simple. Think about it, as soon as you go out, most of the people on the street know each other, and the officials and the people break their bones and connect their tendons, which is the advantage of "small countries and widows".

These officials are reluctant to Duanwang and Shu Qinglan in their hearts, there is Duanwang and the sailor, even if they don't do anything, this person's heart is stable; As for Master Shu, he has indeed done a lot of good things for Qiongzhou, such as building roads and bridges, building houses and factories, breeding and planting, and adding schools... The life of the people of Qiongzhou is getting richer day by day, and the accounts in the yamen are getting better and better day by day.

Of course, what worries the officials and people of Qiongzhou the most is the future, who will become the next "soil emperor" on the territory of Qiongzhou, and how long can such a good life last?

No one can give them an answer.

Finally, on the day of parting, Qinglan's face was wet again.

I don't know if the water vapor in the air is too heavy or the scene of the people gathering to bid farewell is too profound, in short, many years later, Qinglan still remembers that light rainy morning, the swarthy smiling faces and the tall Wanmin umbrellas.

"Jingle Bell~"

The crisp brass bells on the umbrella rang out with the sailors' trumpets, Qinglan held one in one hand, Thirteen held the second son, and the family stood at the bow of the boat, waving to the wind.

Farewell, Qiongzhou.

"You're a good officer." Thirteen took out his left hand to hold his wife, and looked at the group of people on the shore and on the dock who were crying "Lord Qingtian", and couldn't help but feel emotional.

"You know what," Qinglan clenched Thirteen's fingers hard, "I have always believed that our love should not be limited to family and friends. You and I have the ability and responsibility to love more lives. ”

These words were like an invisible punch, hammering heavily on the thirteen hearts. His eyes were long, looking at the sea and sky for a long time, until Qiongzhou gradually became smaller in his sight.

"yes, you're right." Taught.
