Chapter 821: The First Side Room (5)
The emperor really wanted to kick this old pious woman to death, because a few small money betrayed the master. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info provides the address of the young lady's residence to the gangsters, and wants to let Ulhan be kidnapped, and then ask the prince for ransom.
Eventually, he held back and said, "Open this door." ”
"Who are you? Take me as a slave? Here is the dowry of the second lady of my family, how can you look at it casually? What if it's going to be less? ”
Xuan'er said, "When did you become the master?" ”
"Lord Xuan, the slave maid is Miss Wulihan's nurse, is this how your house treats the nurse?"
Xuan'er said: "This king also has a nurse, and Mama Jiang has never betrayed this king, nor did she want the gangsters to kidnap this king and extort money." Hurry up and open the room, we have to check if Hada Fujin's dowry is missing. Or is it more than that. ”
Mama Zan was frightened, but she didn't dare to run. There were a dozen young and strong people standing in the courtyard. Trembling, he opened the door. Xuan'er said, "You stand there and don't move, maybe this king can ask you at any time." ”
"Yes, the slave doesn't dare to move." Now he calls himself a slave.
"Zanmama, are you sure no one has touched these boxes?" The emperor asked.
"Nope! Absolutely nothing! The slave was afraid that the young lady's dowry would be less, so she stayed in the innermost bed of this room at night and watched these things. ”
"Oh? Are you here all night? How can you prove that you haven't touched these boxes? ”
"There was a list of dowries in the box, and the old lady said that if there was one less, she would send me to the official. The old lady still has the same list in her hand, and the key is only held by the slave and maid, and if the thing is lost, the slave must have taken it. ”
"This king asks you again, did these things be placed here as soon as they were brought into the mansion?"
"Yes, I carried it into the house and put it here, and then I locked the door, and the key to the door was always held by the slave maid. Even the young lady had not checked her dowry. What is the slave doing when it has nothing to do? ”
"Alright then, with you present, the emperor wants to see if anyone has touched Hada Fujin's dowry."
Mama Zan almost fainted with fright, the young man in front of her was actually the current emperor! As soon as his legs were weak, he knelt down: "The slave doesn't know that the emperor has arrived ......"
"Okay, okay, we don't want your young lady's things, we just want to verify a thing, and then look at the results, maybe we can give Lord Hada a clean slate."
A relieved smile appeared on Mama Zan's face.
"Do you have the key to the box?"
"Yes, yes, all here are the slaves." With that, he untied a large bunch of keys from his waist.
"Wait a minute. I'll take a look at it first. Emperor Kangxi's heart was really fine, he observed from the front and side of the box for a while, and then drew a line on the surface of the box with his right index finger, and immediately there were traces of being wiped off the floating ash, and there was also a mark on the surface of several other boxes, and the traces were the same as the first box, which proved that no one had touched the box.
"Why are there so many empty boxes?" Kangxi's eyebrows gathered in the center of his eyebrows.
"Back to the emperor, these empty boxes are all covers, tents and clothes from my young lady's dowry, and they have been used in her room."
"Then open all the boxes and lift the lids."
Mama Zan agreed to open all the boxes, and the lids were lifted, and inside were neatly arranged silver bills of five taels and one ingot, arranged horizontally and vertically. Kangxi picked up one and looked at it carefully, it was not a unified treasury silver. I took out a few from the corners, and took them down, and there were only two layers of wood to see, and I reached out and took it, and it was actually a wooden plate. When I took the plate down, I was stunned: it was the same plate below, but it was not filled with silver, but with stones of uniform size! The granite quality is very heavy at the end, and the lower layer is still granite blocks. Although it is not as neat as silver, it is also placed in a very regular manner. Together with the top layer, there are five floors in total.
"Will you help you?"
"Okay, let's take a look."
It was sixty-four dowries, and the furnishings and furnishings that were placed in the room, clothes, fabrics, bedding, tents, etc., were removed, and fifty chests were to be examined. The two brothers looked at each one very carefully, and there were forty chests of silver in two layers, and the others were jewelry, shoes and socks, cloth, embroidery, purses, and so on, and there was only one layer on the top, and granite stones on the bottom. The emperor personally came to check the dowry of the daughter of the royal history of Chahada, which shows how serious the nature is. The emperor is afraid that there will be entrainment in the box of Hada Yushi, and when the time comes, the entrainment will be taken away, and the empty place will say that the people in the house stole it, blame the imperial uncle, and let the imperial uncle compensate him for his silver.
The total amount of silver in the chest at present is nine thousand six hundred taels, and the other things are not very valuable, only a few hundred taels. Plus those in the room, the side Fujin Hadanara? Ullihan's dowry was converted into silver, and the total amount was about 12,000 taels. Xuan'er's speed of settling accounts is not covered.
"Lock the door! Praise Mama and I will go on a trip. ”
Mama Zan's hands were not good, she locked the door tremblingly, and looked at the emperor with a panicked face.
"What do you see? This matter can't just be over, there is an assassin in the room of the royal lady, what is going on? Let's find a quiet place to talk.
"The slave says everything!"
"Okay, but this is not the place to talk, Brother Xuan will find me a quiet place."
"Then let's go to the upper floor of the Escape Hall, which is not only spacious, but also farther away from the other buildings, and no one should hear us talk."
"Okay, let's go." The emperor strode straight to the Xiaoyao Palace, Xuan'er followed closely, and Zanma was trotting all the way.
When he arrived at the Xiaoyao Palace, Xuan'er arranged enough guards in the house and guards in the house to wait around, and drove away the maids and women who were cleaning the dust.
The emperor sat on the big kang by the window, and Xuan'er sat opposite Kangxi across the kang table. Mama Zan is a clever person, kneeling directly on the brick floor in front of the emperor and Xuan'er.
"Tell me, why is the Hada Imperial History cheating?" Kangxi asked majestically.
"Back to the emperor, before the second miss, my family had just married the second young master, and I didn't expect that the second miss would be selected to be the side blessing of the Xuan prince, and the family's silver has been almost spent. The adults in my family are face-loving, and the daughter was personally married by the emperor, so she can't lose the emperor's face, nor can she lose the face of the two princes and his own face. While borrowing money from relatives, he also moved his wife's dowry. It's really too tight to get married, so I can't help it, so I put the stones underneath, and I look honest when I carry the dowry, right? This matter is known to Lord Yushi, Mrs. Yushi, the eldest young master, and the slave maid. Who would have thought that someone would actually think about it. ”
"Then you can tell me more about it."
"Yes, the day after the second lady got married, I was afraid that Mrs. Yushi would be worried, so I asked the slave to go back to the house and tell Mrs. that she was all right here. The slave and maid hurried back to the house and hurried back, and on the way someone put their heads in their pockets and put them in the carriage, as if they had walked for almost an hour, and in a very simple house, several masked men dressed in black threatened the slaves and maids, asking the slaves and maids to promise them to open the door when they came to the palace to kidnap the second lady. If you don't kill, fight, or scold, that is, the prince of Chaorui wants a hundred thousand taels of silver, or he will kill the whole family of slaves and maids. The slave maid has only one son, who is still a posthumous son, and he was finally raised, and he has just married and has no children, if he kills him, the offspring of the slave man's cigarettes will be cut off. Thinking that it would not hurt the life of the second lady if the prince of Chaorui asked for silver anyway, he agreed. Then they gave the slave and maid a silver ticket of fifty taels of silver, and sent the slave and maid back. Slaves and maids are not greedy for the robbers' money at all, they are forced to give them to the slaves and maids! The emperor, the prince, you just let go of the slave maid, the slave and the maid are inseparable from the second miss, and the second miss is inseparable from the slave and maid. ”
"You are very loyal to the Lord, for the life of your family, betrayed the prince, you got fifty taels, but let the prince take 100,000 taels, you think it's a decimal number, right? There were more than 1,000 people in their house, and they got up early and worked late to add money to the treasury. These gangsters are very good at enjoying ready-made children, taking them to spend all day drinking, and be merry. Then you talk about the height, voice and age of those masked people and all the clues related to this matter, if these gangsters are arrested through these clues, you can atone for your crimes and continue to follow your second lady, otherwise you will go to the prison of the criminal department to eat. Think carefully and don't leave a single clue behind. Now let you go back to serve the second lady, and don't tell her a little bit about today, you know? ”
"Yes, yes, the slave understands."
"Alright, you can go. Don't play tricks, I'm personally asking about this matter, and I can't run if I want to! ”
"The slave understands, the slave understands." Mama Zan knelt so numb that her legs were numb, and she finally got up, limped away, and wiped a cold sweat in a place where the emperor and Xuan'er couldn't see.
"Brother Xuan, what do you think is wrong with this? Hada Yushi is just deceiving for the sake of his daughter's face? If you look at it from the perspective of the Hada Imperial History, Ulihan's ability to marry the emperor or the royal family is my grace to him and the glory of their Hada family. No matter how you try to find a way, you have to make up sixty-four of your daughter's dowry. It seems that he has to prepare a rich dowry for his daughter for the sake of his daughter's face and his own face. I really couldn't get it together, so I thought of a bad idea to slap a swollen face and become fat? The emperor was thinking.
Xuan'er said, "It doesn't seem to have to be like this, right? Lord Hada is not a brain-dead person, and he made those boxes with a creaking sound, just to show the effect of a box full of gold and a box full of silver? Didn't he think he was the imperial history? Didn't you think that people would take advantage of the loophole and say that he was greedy for ink? Is face or head important? The king estimated that if it were calculated by silver, forty chests of silver would be one hundred and ninety-two thousand taels. From the annual salary of an official of Yipin is 180 taels, and the savings without eating or drinking to 1.92 million taels, it takes more than 10,660 years. So he filled the dowry box to prove that he was a corrupt official, right? Pure brain damage! ”
"Brain-dead? That's a good word, fresh! You say he deliberately got people to impeach him? Attention-grabbing? Isn't that too dangerous? In case I don't go the way he designed......"
"If he wants you to change the dowry and dowry in the marriage of the official's children, he can directly tell you in the fold, why take such a big risk? Besides, whether it's sixty-four lifts or one hundred and twenty-eight lifts, no one stipulates that it must be yellow and white, right? Wouldn't it be nice to make some quilts, shoes and socks, pillows or something, and take up space and be brisk? ”
"In a word! Who can be as smart as Brother Xuan? However, from the matter of Hada Imperial History, we can see the extravagance, comparison, vanity and other bad trends of the court officials. It seems that Tian Rui's dowry adopted the quilt strategy, right? ”
"I simply confess to you, although Rui'er's dowry is not cheating, it is also watery."
"Moisture? Another new word, what does it mean? ”
"It's still a quilt strategy. The dowry box was filled, light and fluttering, easy to lift and look good. Rui'er is a blessing of the Jin Dynasty, which is twice as much as sixty-four lifts. But we didn't use granite, we borrowed the exotic materials that Eniang bought first, and picked the lightweight, good-looking ones for everyone to see. Just go back and go back. We don't have one hundred and twenty-eight taels of silver, and if we have that money, we will send it directly to the treasury to fight the three feudatories. ”
The emperor laughed happily, laughed out of tears, and kept saying: "Up and down, up and down!" An honest person like Uncle Huang will also deceive. ”
"Don't wronged Amma, he didn't ask about the dowry at all, and it was the tricks of this king and the two mothers to say that the fraud was made."
"No, no, my stomach hurts with laughter! However, what you have done in your house is fair and genuine, and there are things in every box, all of which are full, and Hada Yushi is not very good, and it is not like to use stones to fill the number. ”
"The stone has weight, and when it is lifted, it crunchs, and it can be confused with the real."
Kangxi simply rolled on the kang and was very happy. I admire my cousin's intelligence and wisdom very much. It's affordable, generous and face-saving, who can say nothing? Hada Yushi is really brainless!
"I don't know if I personally participated in the raid of the palace today, will I let the imperial uncle have an idea, and here I will make amends to the imperial uncle and cousin."
"Holy and sinister. You are doing this to give our house a clear testimony that our father and son are not involved in this matter, and nothing has anything to do with us. ”
At this time, the prince hurriedly came to the Xiaoyao Palace and asked about the Hada Imperial History. Kangxi knelt in front of the prince and solemnly kowtowed: "I have made amends to the emperor's uncle!" ”
"Your Majesty, what are you doing here?"
"Uncle Huang, none of the 3,000 soldiers with yellow flags in Ao Bai have been able to enter your mansion, and now, when nothing happened, I personally came to raid your mansion."
"The emperor thinks too much, but he just looks at the dowry of Hada side Fujin." The prince said as he helped Kangxi up, "If there is no problem, let Hada Yushi out." This incident was enough to lose his face. ”
"I promise that I will never send a woman to Brother Xuan in the future, it's too troublesome."
The prince laughed: "The old minister likes to hear this." There are many women in the emperor, in order to have more princes, and in the future, you can choose the best inheritance from among the many princes. What does Xuan'er want so many women to do?
Kangxi was a little embarrassed by the prince's truth. Back then, Brother Xuan was named the son of the world as soon as he was born, and when the emperor's uncle only had one son, he was named the son, isn't the family still very good? You don't have to fight anyone. In fact, there are many troubles and troubles for sons. For the sake of a dragon chair, father and son turn against each other, brothers become enemies, and it is not for nothing that flesh and blood kill each other.
