074 Old Accounts(2)
"You're right......" Qin Yu stood behind Tong Yao, listened to the other party's whisper, and then looked back at her,
With a shallow smile in his eyes. NOVEL WWW.し WXS520.COM,.
Qin Yu pursed her lips.
Master Tong Xiu, Tong Yao often met each other in the study these days, and was suddenly stopped by someone who couldn't enter the study.
Obviously, this kind of indiscriminate means will not be done by the head of the family.
But seeing that Master Tong walked up to the little guy in a few steps and scolded him sharply, he didn't dare to raise his head after a few words.
It was a long time before the sound stopped. Master Tong took a breath, turned around here, and waved his hand at Tong Yao.
Tong Yao pursed her lips and smiled, and walked forward with Qin Yu in her skirt.
"In the past, this was what the people in this courtyard looked like." Master Tong held the teacup in one hand, sipped it shallowly, with a trace of displeasure on his face, flipped through the book with the other, and said to Tong Yao.
"It's time for the people in this mansion to take care of it."
Tong Yao did not answer.
Qin Yu smiled and said heartily: "Master, a few days ago, this study lady was still able to enter, but I don't know why, I suddenly couldn't get in." It frightened the young lady and the slave. ”
Old Man Tong frowned.
Tong Yao raised her eyes and glanced at the other party, lowering her eyelids.
Master Tong squinted and thought for a long time, but he didn't say anything, nodded, and talked to Tong Yao about something else.
Recently, it was unexpected, but Master Tong and Tong Yao have become a lot closer.
……
The brothers and sisters of the Yao family arrived at the house in just a few days.
Qin Yu was really about to sneer.
I'm afraid that Mrs. Tong just wanted Yao Qian to come to the mansion at all.
Hongyuan, Tong Yao, and Qin Yu went to the main hall to meet them.
Still familiar people. It's still familiar.
"Sister Yao." Yao Qi laughed and pounced, reaching out and grabbing Tong Yao's arm.
When Yao Qian heard this, he also slowly turned his face sideways in the hall. Seeing Tong Yao coming, he smiled lightly.
"Miss Tong."
The old lady beckoned them all to sit down and talk.
It's only been a few days, and Mrs. Tong's meaning is really revealed.
After dinner, Mrs. Tong rested and drank tea in the room, and after Mr. Tong entered the house, he brought a little smile on his face.
"The Yao family is here?"
"Master, here we are."
Master Tong nodded. Let Mrs. Tong wait for the change of clothes.
"The little guy guarding the door of the study has some people."
Mrs. Tong was stunned, a little surprised.
"How?"
"When I went to the study today, I happened to bump into my eldest sister. The little guy guarding the door didn't call in. ”
Mrs. Tong's hand tightened with her clothes, and an embarrassed smile spread across her face.
Why not call in? That was her idea.
"The concubine knows."
With a slightly complicated look on his face, Master Tong looked at Mrs. Tong, but he still didn't say anything after all.
……
Yao Qian, Yao Qi and Tong Rui together, and Tong Yao took a walk in the garden. A few maidens meekly followed.
Tong Yao didn't bother to talk to them. walked slowly behind, but Tong Rui saw it, and deliberately stepped forward to pull it.
Tong Qingzhi is also rare, and when he and Yao Qian get together, he really has a little bit of a good brother.
Qin Yu looked at Tong Yao's face from time to time, and couldn't help but sigh.
The weather is gradually getting warmer, and it is a small half moon.
Qin Yu and Hongyu taught the little girl in their hands, so they didn't do much rough work in the small yard. There are enough people, and Bai Nen is much easier.
The two members of the Yao family lived in the house for half a month. There is no intention of leaving.
Mrs. Yao's original intention was actually to marry Miss Tong Er, but where would Mrs. Tong look down on their family background, he himself was low-married, where would he let his daughter suffer like that again? and the eyes of the world.
Tong Yao continued to greet Mrs. Tong once a day, and then went to the study.
When Master Tong came, he would talk to her more, but if he didn't come, Tong Yao would read a book in the study for an afternoon.
"Father, do you see an official document?"
Master Tong was a little surprised, and he was not annoyed when he was interrupted, but raised his head from the paper and nodded slightly.
"When my daughter poured you tea, she took a look."
In the past month or so, Mr. Tong has gradually gained a shallow understanding of this daughter who is not very familiar with him on weekdays.
Knowing that the other party was quite knowledgeable, he sighed a sentence or two: "The affairs of the court can be described as unpredictable. ”
I don't know where I said.
Tong Yao lowered her eyelids, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
"The Marquis of Yongzhi was hereditary by the current Shengshang, and went to the official position, not only the mansion was taken away, but the third generation was not allowed to participate in the imperial examination."
Master Tong was slightly shocked and looked at Tong Yao in surprise.
Tong Yao said again: "Father, my daughter knows, and I always know that this person is not a relative of the emperor, so she also relied on her own means to earn a place today." ”
"Today's tragic situation is embarrassing, but there is a big reason behind this."
There was an eerie silence in the study.
Although Qin Yu lowered her head, she hooked the corners of her mouth.
"Father doesn't need to be angry, daughter just just got a look." Tong Yao looked at Master Tong and said with a smile.
Master Tong looked at the other party, looked away, coughed, but didn't say anything.
But after thinking about it for a long time, I felt more and more pity in my heart.
Seeing that Master Tong had no intention of continuing, Tong Yao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and it was difficult to continue to speak.
I had been preparing for so many days, but it was still very difficult to use it.
Who knows, but after three days of light kung fu, when Master Tong came to the study again, he called Tong Yao, who was not in the study, but was resting in his own small courtyard.
Tong Yao was a little surprised, but after changing clothes. quickly led the girl to the study.
When Master Tong saw Tong Yao enter the study, he obviously still had a look of concern on his face, and then let her sit beside him.
Bow your head slightly and groan. His wrinkled fingers tapped at the pile of official documents on the table, "Look at it." ”
Tong Yao had a hint of surprise on her face, then nodded, reached out and picked up the things on the table, and looked at them carefully.
Moment.
"The father asked his daughter to see this, presumably there must be something to ask." Tong Yao put down the booklet and looked up at Master Tong.
Master Tong nodded. He frowned, and seemed to have some difficulty speaking.
……
"Tell me first about what you said a few days ago."
Qin Yu stood on the side. When he heard this, he couldn't help but smile at the corners of his lips.
Tong Yao squinted and thought for a while, and said, "Yong'an Hou? ”
"What does the father want to ask his daughter?"
Master Tong looked at the daughter in front of him, thought about it, and said, "Although the affairs of the court are not suitable for the daughter's family. But I'd like to hear from you. ”
Tong Yao pursed her lips and smiled when she heard this. He lowered his head and thought for a moment before he raised his head.
"Thanks to her father's love, even so, my daughter will be blunt."
Under the sight of Master Tong, Tong Yao slowly spoke.
"The year before last, a big event happened in the court, so naturally there is no need for my daughter to say more, the things that shocked the government and the opposition and those rumors always spread extremely fast."
My daughter didn't think much of it at the time. It's just that when I think about it now, I feel that there are a few doubts. ”
Master Tong looked at her suspiciously.
"Among them, the most implicated is the Yong'an Hou line. The father was looking at the official document at the time, and the daughter happened to take a look, and it was probably someone who folded the ginseng and asked the father to hand it over. ”
Master Tong was slightly surprised, stunned by Tong Yao's intelligence.
"It's been a long time since the incident of Yong'an Hou, but why are there still people who come to participate in the excerpts at this time?"
The nursery rhyme said, turning a corner in her words, and said: "Actually, my daughter is guessing that the official position of the Yong'an Marquis Mansion was reduced by the saint because of the involvement in the smuggling of salt." ”
Tong Lao took a breath and looked at Tong Yao: "How do you know this?" The Holy Admiral buried the matter cleanly, and sealed it unanimously inside and outside, except for a few people who tried the case, the rest of them were unknown. ”
Tong Yao is a girl waiting for the boudoir, this situation has to surprise him.
Tong Yao smiled and said quietly.
"Father doesn't need to panic, in fact, this matter is very simple to say."
"To put it bluntly, Yong'an Hou was convicted of those crimes at that time, which seemed to be light and serious in the eyes of his daughter. is not treason and is not a party for personal gain, how can it be condemned to the great crime of punishing the nine clans? ”
Master Tong listened, and his eyes gradually calmed down.
Tong Yao thought for a while and said: "Yong'an Hou is not a royal bloodline, he just climbed up step by step by relying on his official position, but he helped a little when Taizu was fighting the country, so don't blame her daughter for speaking harshly." ”
"That idea of friendship has long since dissipated with the ancestors' generation, even if the current saint knows the reason for this, if you want to talk about the truth, there is not a little bit of it."
"Generally speaking, this kind of thing is operated by the imperial businessmen themselves, after all, how much rations are in the country, how can they be separated from salt."
Tong Yao said, smiled, looked at Master Tong, and said: "Yong'an Hou has been famous in Beijing for a long time, and his official authority is even worse, and it is not easy to uproot the saint. ”
"I'm afraid, it is even more that the saint has been looking at it for a long time, and it will be involved in many things through the smuggling of salt, and it will be dealt with heavily, and even hereditary inheritance is not allowed, and the family property is confiscated."
Master Tong sighed when he heard this, with a complicated expression on his face: "I didn't think about it, you ......"
Tong Yao raised her head and looked at Master Tong calmly with clear and clean eyes: "Presumably, my father will be so troubled by this matter, it should be because this matter was tried by my father's hand in the first place." ”
In a word, it is broken.
Master Tong couldn't help but secretly inhale again, and looked at Tong Yao in shock, a little incredulous.
Tong Yao still looked that leisurely, there was not much surprise on her face, and there was no surprise, but she was very calm as always.
Qin Yu pursed her lips and smiled, raised her eyes to look at the two who were talking, and secretly thought to herself: The matter of Yong'an Hou actually involved many people in the previous life.
It can be said that it shocked the government and the opposition, there was a lot of trouble in the past few years, but it was deliberately suppressed later, and gradually after a long time, the wind became quieter.
Later, when she was a girl in the Marquis Mansion of Yueyang, she also learned a lot of new secrets.
The eldest daughter of the old marquis is a concubine in the palace, and the second daughter is married to the fifth prince as a concubine, and the power in her hands is really not small, and she even surpasses several cabinet ministers. Although Yong'an Hou was not originally involved in any state affairs, it was just a matter of all sizes, and there was always a strange force behind it.
The emperor is naturally strange, but he can't always find out the reason.
By Hou Ye's side, Qin Yu just took this matter as a joke at the time, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt more and more frightened.
She hadn't seen Yong'an Hou, this life was, and the previous life was too, but according to Hou Ye's description, it was an old man who looked extremely kind on the surface.
In fact, there is a good saying, dogs that can bite people don't bark, although it is very vulgar to say this, but in the end, Yong'an Hou can be regarded as one of the threats to the throne.
Naturally, the emperor will not be a fool anymore.
Yong'an Hou is just a waiter, but how to use the means to entrap those ministers? His daughter is a concubine in the palace, how does she rise to the top?
It's not power or money.
The saint groped for that clue and secretly sent someone to check for several years, including the Hou Shizi of Yueyang at that time, she had not yet entered the Yueyang Hou Mansion, so she didn't know very well, but she heard a lot later.
Later, there was a matter of the Marquis of Yong'an being copied and the title being stripped of.
It's just that the silver is just a marquis, where did he get it?
Just a little bit of money from the imperial court is far from enough.
Embezzlement?
This also requires silver and guts, and the strange thing is that Yong'an Hou has done so many things, and the reviews in the court are unanimous and good before the incident.
Illicit salt.
The profit of this thing is simply unimaginable, and it is true that this is why the royal family does not allow people to sell illicit salt.
Yong'an Hou didn't know who he was pulling the bridge from, and he actually touched this doorway.
I'm afraid it's been planned for a long time.
I'm afraid most of that silver was used to bribe the ministers.
The emperor was angry and didn't do anything else, but he pulled out a line, and there were too many people who were pulling and entangled, so he sealed his mouth on the government and the opposition.
Yong'an Hou's daughter was a noble concubine, and she didn't have anything at that time, but if her daughter had a son, wouldn't she have to rebel?
Find out that this series of broken things is that whoever it is, you will also dream night and night, and you can't sleep.
"Since the father is willing to leave his son behind and talk to his daughter, there must be something unspeakable, I heard that the matter of Yong'an Hou was tried by his father's hands."
Old Man Tong frowned tightly, looking extremely sad.
It is reported that when someone discovered the forces behind the Yong'an Hou, they went to the fold, and then the emperor sent someone to investigate. (To be continued.) )>
