Chapter 251: Anger
After the wish left, Cui Keyin smiled and said to Zhou Heng: "Sure enough, he is a strange person." ”
I've never heard of civil officials knowing eighteen kinds of martial arts.
Zhou Heng nodded: "No, if I can send this person to Datong to garrison, I can also put half of my mind at ease." ”
While speaking, the little chamberlain came and said, "Lord." Jiang Xiaotian, the chief soldier of Datong, sent someone to ask for a meeting. ”
Zhou Heng and Cui Keyin glanced at each other, both surprised. Cui Keyin said: "The concubine will go back to the Purple Smoke Pavilion first." ”
Zhou Heng said: "Okay, you go back first, and I'll see what he sends someone to do?" ”
First caused the soldiers to mutiny, and then was defeated in the enemy's siege of the city, suffering heavy casualties, and instead of saying that he was guilty of the crime, he sent people to Beijing to ask to see him, what is this to do?
Cui Keyin saw that Zhou Heng's face was not good-looking, and comforted him: "Let's listen to what the person says first, don't be angry with this kind of person." ”
Zhou Heng put a cloak on Cui Zhenyi and said, "It's cold outside, be careful not to catch a cold." ”
From here to the Purple Smoke Pavilion, the road is not close. Cui Keyin responded, tightened her cloak, and walked out.
Cold winds are blowing from the sky, and this year's weather seems to be colder than usual.
Back in the Purple Smoke Pavilion, Cui Keyin went to see Lele, and when she saw the nurse teasing him, she took him over. When Leguang saw her, he spit bubbles to express his happiness.
Cui Keyin teased him for a while, coaxed him to sleep, and let the nurse carry him over.
Zhou Heng came back earlier than she expected, Jun had an angry face, and said as soon as he entered the door: "Do you know what Jiang Xiaotian sent someone to do?" He actually came to bribe/bribe me, and gave me five hundred taels of gold, saying that as long as I raised him up one more liter, he would sit in the position of overseer. and a thousand taels of gold. ”
After Jiang Xiaotian gave Wang Zhe a generous gift, he thought that it was Zhou Heng who had the final say, Wang Zheye had fallen out of favor and had no power, so he sent someone who would be able to rush to the capital day and night to bribe Zhou Heng. The people who had just come were dusty, apparently having just entered the city before dark, and had come here when they had entered the city.
"Where did he, a man who received a fortune, get five hundred taels of gold? I'm afraid that this gold is eaten out of empty salaries, right? Datong's defense and pragmatism are worrisome. Zhou Heng frowned.
Cui Keyin was silent.
Five hundred taels of gold. It's not a small amount. The most hateful thing is. This person does not repent, and he still wants to climb to a higher position and harm others. It's climbing up on the corpse of a soldier.
"Don't be angry with this kind of person, it's not worth it." Cui Keyin said: "Are you hungry? Do you want to make some red beans for supper? ”
Zhou Heng said: "No need, sleep." ”
Nothing was said all night. The next day, Zhou Heng went back to the court.
Cui Keyin saw him come back so early. Strangely said, "What's the matter today?" ”
There is nothing special in the house. Why come back so early? Looking at it again, although he deliberately forbeared, his face was still wrong.
"What's wrong? Who made the prince angry? Cui Keyin said. stepped forward to widen the prince's robe for him, and asked Lu Ying to take his household clothes to change into for him.
Zhou Heng opened his arms and was tossed by Cui Keyin, and when he had changed his clothes, he tried his best to say in a normal tone: "It's nothing, if you want to go home, you can go home." I'm going to Biyunju Governor. ”
Cui Keyin called Huanxi over, and after asking, he learned that this morning, Zhou Heng advocated that Jiang Xiaotian be dismissed from the post of chief soldier and escorted to Beijing to await trial, and at the same time strongly recommended Xu Yuan to take over as the chief soldier of Datong. At the same time, Zhou Heng also submitted the evidence that Yuanshan went to Datong to investigate, and Jiang Xiaotian's deduction of military salaries caused the soldiers to mutiny, and questioned the whereabouts of a military salary issued by the Ministry of Households. This military salary was sent out in the records of the household department, but Jiang Xiaotian did not receive it. In other words, this military salary disappeared without a trace.
This military salary was the one that Xue Ping'an withheld, and later made a record of the distribution, which fell into Wang Zhe's pocket.
When Wang Zhe saw that Zhou Heng had actually investigated here, he couldn't help but be anxious, and splashed it on the court, with a handful of tears and snot, telling about his relationship with Emperor Zhi'an for more than 20 years.
Those who can sit high in the temple and are qualified to go to court are all smart people who are better than monkeys, how can they not understand the reason why this military salary fell into Wang Zhe's pocket?
Even military salaries can be embezzled in such a blatant manner! Zhou Heng only felt as if he had been immersed in an ice cellar, and now he only knew that Wang Zhe had withheld a military salary, so what about before? How much of the military pay in recent years has been distributed to soldiers?
The following quarrel was turned upside down, until An Di'an sat like a mountain, and finally personally got off the dragon chair to help Wang Zhe get up, and then announced the dissolution of the dynasty.
Zhou Heng was angry and did not go to the Qinzheng Hall to correct the folds, but returned home.
Emperor Zhi'an is really muddy and can't support the wall. Cui Keyin knew Zhou Heng's temperament, he didn't want to be disturbed when he was angry, he just wanted to be quiet. She instructed Hongdou to make a few delicious snacks and send them to Biyunju, and then took care of Hongdou's family affairs.
She bought a two-entry yard near Liyu Hutong to make a new house for Hongdou. Cheng Wen is a staff member, and he lives in the front yard of the Jin Palace's mansion with a group of staff members every day. This time, he married a beautiful wife and had his own house, and all the staff members were envious and shouted for him to have a treat.
Red beans made a few snacks and sent them to Biyunju, where they were brought in by Huanxi. came back Cui Keyin and discussed the dowry with her: "The four of you, I will give you a house and a small grange for each of you to marry." Let the sprouts come, and the maid will pick a few by herself. Clothes, shoes and socks, you can solve it yourself. ”
They have served Cui Keyin since childhood, and the Cui family has always been kind to their subordinates, as the personal maid in Cui Keyin's house, there are many monthly cases. Regarding the clothes, Cui Keyin didn't plan to pay attention to them. These days, as soon as Hongdou has free time, he hides in the house and makes needlework and embroidery wedding dresses. She wasn't good at needlework, so Lu Ying and Mo Yu had to help her.
Hongdou blushed and kowtowed to Cui Keyin, and said, "Princess Xie." Don't want slaves and maids in the courtyard and grange, it is their duty for slaves and maids to serve the princess, how dare you ask for the princess's reward? I only ask the princess to enter the palace to serve in the future. ”
She was reluctant to Cui Keyin, and she didn't cook snacks for Cui Keyin for a day, so she felt empty in her heart. Thinking of getting married, he was naturally happy, and when he thought that he couldn't be by Cui Keyin's side day and night in the future, he was so sad that he couldn't stop shedding tears.
Cui Keyin helped her up with a smile and said, "Of course, I can't do without you." Give you a month off, and after a month, go back to the house to be the housekeeper on the stove. ”
Hongdou was overjoyed and kowtowed to Cui Keyin again.
Mo Yu listened to it and stepped forward to say hello to the red bean. The last thing they want is to leave Cui Keyin after getting married. Now it's okay, you can go back to the house in the future, although you can't wait in Cui Keyin's house, you can finally see each other every day.
Hongdou happily hugged Moyu and said, "I can still serve the princess in the future." ”
There was laughter in the room, and in the midst of laughter, the curtain was lifted, and Zhou Heng walked in and said, "What are you so happy about?" Tell me to hear it. ”
Hongdou blushed and didn't dare to speak, Mo Yu happily said that she could still enter the mansion to serve in the future, Zhou Heng glanced at her and said, "Let's go down." ”
The laughter stopped abruptly. Cui Keyin knew that he was unhappy, and said to the maids: "You go down first, let the prince be quiet." ”
Mo Yu and the others bowed and retreated, the princess treated them like this, the prince wouldn't be angry, right? (To be continued.) )
