Chapter 042: Governance

"What a Du Ruyan!" Shu Jinqi clenched his fists, and he couldn't wait to tear up that shameless woman now!

Shu Yan hurriedly comforted Shu Jinqi a few words, and Shu Jinqi's anger subsided, and then he spoke again, "The master is also angry, and ordered to sell Du Ruyan's hair." But Du Ruyan's deed of sale was not in the house, and the lord was afraid that his wife would be sad if he knew, so he thought about locking people up first, and only said to his wife that Du Ruyan was sick and sent to Zhuangzi to recuperate. After the lady gives birth, the decision will be made. It's just that I didn't expect that Du Ruyan actually found out that she was pregnant. ”

Shu Yan glanced at Shu Jinqi and saw that there was nothing unusual, and then said, "Du Ruyan is also a scheming, and the guards didn't pay attention to her, so they let her run out." When the lord knew, the lady also knew everything. The lady's first child was unstable and she was angry, so she lost the baby. ”

"Didn't my mother deal with Du Ruyan?" Shu Jinhua was surprised, and he didn't expect Du Ruyan to be so bold.

"When the lady was misconceived, she felt sorry for the master. But at that time, Du Ruyan's fetal image was stable, and his wife was kind, thinking that it was all the flesh and blood of the master, so he left Du Ruyan. Who knows, if you stay here, you won't be able to leave. After Du Ruyan gave birth, the old man planned to send people away. But that year, something happened to the Chen family. Prince Guang was killed, and all the evidence of the crime pointed to the Yangzhou State Mu, the Yangzhou State Mu of that year, who was the old lady Chen. ”

Shu Yan shook his head, "This qiē is all designed. If something happens to Mrs. Chen, the Chen family will be defeated, and among the several in-laws, only the Hu family's mother's family is in a high position. What's more, it was the Hu family who tried the case back then. The old lady was imprisoned, and the second uncle had no choice but to ask for help from the Hu family, but who knew that the Hu family only had one request, that is, to let Du Ruyan enter the house. ”

"Such a big deal, just to let Du Ruyan enter the house?" Shu Jinqi didn't understand, such a big battle was actually just to promote a concubine?

"Yes, just let Du Ruyan enter the house." Shu Yan nodded and said.

"This Hu family is too lenient, right? Why are they like this? What's more, although his father was a Beijing official back then, he only did some chores in the Hanlin Academy, and he was not in power? ”

"Miss doesn't know, the old man's entry into Beijing is the will of the emperor. The Empress Dowager obviously couldn't stop it, so she could only play some selfish means. is also the same, the old man knows that Du Ruyan relies on the Hu family. ”

Shu Jinqi didn't know what to say, she didn't expect that Du Ruyan would come from such a background.

"The lord tried his best to resist back then, but at that time, the first emperor had been on the throne for less than a year, and the regent was only a two-year-old child, and his foundation was not stable, so how could he fight with the Hu family? As a last resort, in order to keep Mrs. Chen, the old man could only take Du Ruyan back to the house. Speaking of the past, Shu Yan's eyes were full of unwillingness.

"But now that the regent is in charge, the little emperor has lived up to expectations, and the empress dowager has gradually withdrawn from seizing power in recent years, why can't Du Ruyan be moved?" Shu Jinqi was puzzled, now the Hu family is weak, his maternal grandfather is the governor of Liangjiang, and his uncle is also the governor of Yangzhou, not to mention that his father is a scholar of the palace and the head of the power center of the Great Xia Dynasty. Looking at the entire Tai'an City, in addition to the emperor and the regent, even the two grandfathers of the country saw Shu Yue, and they also had to give three points.

Shu Yan shook his head, Shu Jinqi still didn't look deeply, "A hundred-legged insect, dead but not stiff." Does the young lady know why the regent only assists the emperor instead of ascending the throne himself? ”

“…… Isn't it the first emperor who is located on the emperor? Shu Jinqi was puzzled.

"The edict of the first emperor said that it was passed on to the regent. Although the Hu family had been suppressed by the emperor back then, if the little emperor ascended the throne, wouldn't the empress dowager justifiably coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes? After all, the little emperor was only five years old back then. ”

Shu Jinqi thought about it, and then suddenly realized. The regent Qin Su was crowned king when he was five years old. In order to keep the only younger brother, the emperor sent Qin Su out of Tai'an City early, and decreed that Qin Su, the prince of Heng, was not allowed to enter Beijing in his lifetime.

Qin Su traveled abroad in his early years and learned all the skills. When he was fifteen years old, the first emperor died, and only then did he pass the decree to Qin Su to Beijing. But no one thought that the first emperor would be located in Qin Su.

Qin Su was born without a mother, was raised by the former emperor, and treated the former emperor like a brother and a father. The first emperor gave the throne to Qin Su, and he also valued Qin Su's ability, he couldn't let the Qin family's country change hands in his hands.

But what is even more unexpected is Qin Su. He did not ascend the throne, but supported the youngest son of the previous emperor, the current little emperor Qin Shen, and himself ruled as the regent. The princes of the early years of the emperor died before they reached adulthood, and Qin Shen, the sixth son, also stumbled and only grew to the age of five.

The five-year-old Qin Shen ascended the throne as emperor, and Qin Su eliminated most of the dissenting courtiers with thunderous momentum and rigid means. The Empress Dowager didn't expect that Qin Su, who was raised outside, would be so difficult to deal with. Without the suppression of not being allowed to enter Beijing without edicts, Qin Su flourished in Tai'an City.

However, this effect is also more obvious, as the regent, Qin Su has freedom of movement, and he is even more comfortable between protecting the little emperor and cleaning up traitors.

"I didn't expect the regent to be so powerful at such a young age." Shu Jinqi was all emotional.

"The emperor also played an emotional card." Shu Yan couldn't help but say out loud, "If you had bluntly said that you wanted the regent to assist the emperor, the regent would not have done his best. And it's possible that it will ......," he said, slitting his throat with his left hand.

Shu Jinqi was stunned for a moment and muttered, "Can't you stop?" The emperor is also the nephew of the regent, and I heard that their uncle and nephew have a very good relationship. ”

Shu Yan shook his head, "Royal, how can you have any feelings at all?" It was the emperor who sent the regent away back then, who could know that this was not a trick of the emperor? ”

"Even if it is, the regent also knows how to make the Great Xia Dynasty more stable, even if he is not the emperor, his position is now unshakable."

Nodding, Shu Jinqi asked again, "What does Uncle Yan mean, is it just around the corner to deal with Du Ruyan?" ”

"You still have to wait, although the Hu family has been silent for a long time, the Empress Dowager is still alive, the surface of the court is calm, but in fact it is also turbulent, after all, the Empress Dowager's arrangement in the past few decades is not to say that it can be destroyed. And this time, the fourth lady gave a courtesy, and the old lady Chen wrote to say that the second uncle's family would follow the old lady to Beijing together. ”

……

Shu Jinhua squinted his eyes, turned around and went back to the bedroom, and the early autumn who was following beside him, he didn't dare to breathe, and followed quickly with his head down.
