Yu Shi thought for a while and said: "The concubine sees that Qingsu and Yuan Yi have a deep relationship between brother and sister, especially after Yuan Yi's accident, Qingsu takes care of Yuan Yi carefully. So when the concubine knew that Chai Mansion was coming, she wanted to let Qing Su go with her to take a look, Chai Fu hadn't been here for a long time, who knew that Chai Fu would be so decided...... Seriously, you have to quit your family. ”

Yu originally wanted to say that he was resolute, but after a pause, he changed the word serious.

Liu Jingye didn't want Liu Qingsu to be there when he retired from Chaifu, and he was brought by the Yu family.

The reason why Yu said this was that he knew that the old lady must have known her purpose of taking Liu Qingsu to Qingfeng Courtyard together. But Liu Jingye didn't think much about it after listening to Yu's words.

But Liu Jingye's previous words, coupled with the fact that Yu finished speaking, Liu Jingye didn't say anything. So Yu smiled cautiously and said: "The old lady often says that let Qingsu learn more things, and you can use it in the future, and the concubine thinks that her mother just let Qingsu be in Qingfeng Courtyard mostly to let Qingsu see more things."

Yu guessed correctly. Liu Jingye originally thought more, and he believed most of Yu's statement, and he knew Yu's thoughts. I was also afraid that the Yu family would be even more uneasy, so I said: "Qingsu should also learn more, usually housekeepers and the like, let her take a look on the side when she is free."

Yu nodded and said, "The concubine knows."

After Liu Qingsu returned to the leisurely residence, he told Mama Wei about the matter in general, and then rested.

What Liu Qingsu didn't know was that everything in the leisurely residence had been passed back to the Seven Princes' Mansion by Bixiao.

The next day, Liu Jingye went to the yamen after taking leave from the court.

Xu is there no major event in Beijing for a long time, or maybe it is the time for Liu Mansion to attract attention. Therefore, it didn't take long for Liu Jingye to hand over the paper, and many people in Beijing knew about it.

Many people in Beijing are talking about what heirlooms Liu Mansion has lost. Especially after knowing that Liu Fu once presented a picture of Master Wenxing's "Autumn Water and Autumn Geese and Birds" on the He Garden, which was liked by Emperor Wen, everyone became more curious about the family heirlooms lost by Liu Fu's officials.

There are even many people speculating whether the heirlooms lost by Liu Fu are similar to "Autumn Geese and Autumn Water Birds", otherwise they would not have worked Liu Fu to report to the official.

But I don't know if someone deliberately did something behind the scenes, and the next day after Liu Fu reported to the official, Chai Fu got the news, and he was almost one of the last people to know the news.

It's just that the news that Chai Fu heard was learned from Emperor Wen's mouth.

In the early court, there was still a long sentence from Huang Gonggong: "There is something to play, nothing to retreat", everyone knelt down and said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live", what was waiting for everyone was not the usual "flat body", nor was it the vigorous pace of Emperor Wen.

"Liu Aiqing. I heard that the ancestral heirlooms of your house have been stolen? ”

As soon as Emperor Wen's words came out. The whole court was shocked.

Everyone didn't expect the news to spread so fast, even Emperor Wen knew about it.

This made many ministers think that Liu Fu was already a big celebrity in front of Emperor Wen? Or do some people wonder if Emperor Wen has always been concerned about overweight ministers in private?

In short, Emperor Wen's seemingly unintentional move made everyone in the court think differently.

Liu Jingye was also shocked in his heart.

The other two brothers of the Liu Mansion also told the two of them about the matter that night after the old lady said it. Liu Jingping and Liu Jingming also agreed to report to the official.

Emperor Wen asked like this, Liu Jingye first glanced at the other two brothers, and then Liu Jingye said: "Your Majesty, there are indeed a few ancestral things in the Liu Mansion that are missing. It was left by the ancestors. So Weichen had to be cautious. ”

It is not abrupt to say that Liu Jingye looked at Liu Jingping and the brothers. The key is that the three brothers of the Liu Mansion are all officials in the court, and Emperor Wen's "Liu Aiqing" said three people at once.

Emperor Wen had no expression on his face when he heard Liu Jingye's answer, and he didn't seem to react to Liu Jingye's words. On the contrary, it was as if the ministers were still kneeling on top of the Jinluan Hall just now.

So, Emperor Wen said with a look of sudden realization: "Zhong Aiqing is flat!" ”

In the middle of the court, the mountain cry of "Long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live" sounded again.

Just as everyone was getting up, Emperor Wen opened his mouth and said: "Jingzhong actually let the family of a dignified first-class official be stolen, and it is said that I have no way to govern it. I'm ashamed of Liu's house! ”

Emperor Wen's words made the hearts of the three brothers Liu Jingye and the officials who managed the capital tighten, and then the legs of the ministers of the civil and military officials seemed to suddenly weaken and they were about to kneel.

Seeing this situation, Emperor Wen waved his hand, and the civil and military officials did not kneel, but the three brothers Liu Jingye and the officials who managed the security of the capital were sweating profusely.

Before Liu Jingye and a few people could say something like the ministers didn't dare, Emperor Wen said to Lord Fei of Dali Temple: "Fei Qing's family, the affairs of Liu Aiqing's mansion will be for you." ”

Master Fei only felt a lot of pressure on his head, and even felt that the official hat on his head seemed to be faintly shaky.

But at this time, Lord Fei had to cheer up and said: "Your Majesty is serious, Lord Liu's matter is the responsibility of the lower officials, and the lower officials must do their best." ”

Liu Jingye didn't know that Emperor Wen would say this, and he felt very guilty about Lord Fei in his heart. He knew in his heart that this matter was also a confused lawsuit.

The civil and military officials in the court didn't know if Emperor Wen was giving Liu Fu a head when Emperor Wen continued: "Since Fei Aiqing said so, I really think that Liu Aiqing has cooperated well, and I believe that it will be time for this case to come to light soon." ”

When he arrived here, Liu Jingye knelt down first, Liu Jingping and Liu Jingming followed, and the three of them said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

Emperor Wen said: "Many things cannot be discarded, for example, the people handed down by the ancients must know good and know righteousness, and those three outlines and five constants are also decisive and cannot be forgotten." If something inherited from the ancestors is lost, be careful. Otherwise, what else can I rest assured of? ”

Emperor Wen's words were very ambiguous. Everyone felt a little chaotic and didn't know what to do, so now their minds felt like a mess of paste, but they also shouted: "The emperor is sage!" ”

Only the three brothers of Liu Mansion and Sun Haoyue knew the specific things, but they understood Emperor Wen's words a little.

At this time, the three brothers of the Liu Mansion didn't dare to say anything at all.

In fact, Liu Jingye was originally going to tell Emperor Wen that the heirlooms of the Liu Mansion were not stolen by thieves. But just for a moment, Liu Jingye decided not to say so.

Later facts also proved that Emperor Wen knew much more about this matter than they expected.

Later, when this matter finally came to a conclusion, Liu Jingye learned that Liu Fu's report this time was actually nothing more than a matter of praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow birds.

And many people are becoming more and more avoidant of Liu Mansion, for fear of offending Liu Mansion again.

For a while, the limelight of the Liu Mansion was immeasurable, and even those noble families had to give way to one or two.

Liu Jingye hurriedly went to Dali Temple after Emperor Wen retreated, bowed and said, "There is Lord Lao Fei." ”

Mr. Fei knows about this case, and he knows that it is not so simple. So although Liu Jingye's official position is above him, the pressure on him is that he has accepted Liu Jingye's gift.

Liu Jingye breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Lord Fei's willingness to accept his gift also shows that Lord Fei is not angry with the Liu Mansion.

In fact, Master Fei's footsteps at this time are also a little empty. Emperor Wen's words in the court made him unbearable.

The people of Chai Mansion have just retired from the Liu Mansion, and there are many overweight officials who don't know yet. So there are good deeds, especially officials who are closer to Chai Mansion, in order to have some relationship with Liu Mansion, so they talked about Liu Mansion's report to the official in front of Prime Minister Chai.

Chai Cheng felt a little bad in his heart for a while.

Originally, Prime Minister Chai Cheng would not have formed that family affair with Liu Fu. After all, speaking of which, Liu's family is still inferior to Chai's after all. But he couldn't stand the anger of the people in Liu's mansion, and Liu Yuanyi was also talented. But Chai Fu is the opposite. The children of Chai Mansion are too modest. If Prime Minister Chai Cheng was still young, it would be fine, but he is almost seventy years old, and someone wanted him to be a priest behind his back a few years ago. If it weren't for his every kind of business, he would have returned to his hometown a long time ago. But even so, after the New Year. Prime Minister Chai Cheng also has to be a celebrity.

So when Prime Minister Chai Cheng's heart was beating suddenly. Everyone saw that Prime Minister Chai did not speak, and someone cautiously shouted at Prime Minister Chai tentatively: "Prime Minister Chai Cheng? ”

Prime Minister Chai Cheng had to pretend to be casual and said: "The family affair between Chai Mansion and Liu Mansion has been done. ”

Just when everyone was stunned by what Prime Minister Chai Cheng said. Prime Minister Chai Cheng has already gone far.

After Prime Minister Chai Cheng returned to the house, he asked the housekeeper Chai An to find out what the situation was about Liu's report to the official.

When Chai An told Prime Minister Chai Cheng the results of the investigation, and by the way, many people in Beijing knew about this matter the day before, Prime Minister Chai Cheng was even more uneasy. Although he is old, he has definitely not reached the point of being old and confused, otherwise he would not be almost seventy years old and still sitting in the prime minister's seat.

There must be something else behind this.

So Chai Cheng said to Chai An: "You tell the old man about the specific situation of the Liu Mansion official." Don't miss a single detail. ”

Chai An because he often helped Prime Minister Chai Cheng inquire about some things, he was already clever, and he was also a scholar in his early years, but later because of the failure of the imperial examination, coupled with changes in his family, he happened to be surnamed Chai, and later he was taken in by Prime Minister Chai Cheng to be the housekeeper in the house, and changed his life to An. So Chai An didn't even know when Liu Jingye handed over the paper, and what was written on the paper was told to Prime Minister Chai Cheng word for word.

When Prime Minister Chai Cheng heard Chai An say that the ancestral heirloom of the Liu Mansion had a mark on it, he also felt something flash in his mind. It's just that after all, when I'm older, I don't remember it for a while.

At this time, the old lady of Chai Mansion came to find Prime Minister Chai. This matter was also forgotten by Prime Minister Chai Cheng.

After Liu Jingye and the others returned home, they went to the Qingfeng Courtyard together and told the old lady about today's court events.

The old lady was also very puzzled, so she said to the three brothers: "Have you ever told others about reporting to the official?" ”

Liu Jingye and the three shook their heads.

The old lady said, "It's strange. How did this matter get to the Holy One so quickly? Even if the Holy One hears about it, he won't say this, right? ”

Liu Jingye said: "What my mother said is true, so the three of us brothers went to our mother after getting off the official office to see what our mother thinks. ”

The old lady was also very puzzled, where did she have any opinion at this time.

Liu Jingye frowned and said: "In addition to the fact that a few of us know about this matter, the Yu family and Qingsu's girl also know. ”

Liu Jingping and Liu Jingming were very surprised to hear Liu Jingye say this.

The old lady knew what Liu Jingye meant, Liu Jingye wanted to talk about everything, so that everyone could analyze what was going on, after all, it was the emperor who was in charge of life and death who was concerned about this matter now.

So the old lady said: "I don't know next to me, but I don't know about the two of them for the time being, but the two of them haven't gone out at all in the past two days, let alone have no contact with the outside world." And how could they pass on the specific matter to Emperor Wen so quickly? ”

The old lady's words convinced most of the three brothers who were originally macho in this world.

Liu Jingming, who has always been more thoughtful, said at this time: "Mother, eldest brother, second brother, do you think the saint is more concerned about the minister's palace in the court?" Or is it more concerned about our Liu Mansion? ”

As soon as Liu Jingming's words came out, several people thought at the same time that the ancestors of Liu Mansion had also gone through several dynasties, and they had always been a son of heaven and a courtier, and they also disagreed with Liu Fu like this, that is, it was normal for the Heavenly Family to really be afraid of Liu Fu and react.

In particular, although the fate of many former officials who surrendered to the Dayu Dynasty was not very bad, it was also unsatisfactory in the end. Like Liu Fu, it can be regarded as Liu Fu's ancestor who burned high incense.

The old lady thought for a while and said, "Someone must be paying attention to our Liu Mansion." Since Yuan Yi was bizarre and unconscious, I have been thinking about something, especially when there was a turmoil about Qingsu's manuscript in the middle, I wondered if some people were targeting our Liu Mansion. After all, both of them are long-housed. ”

When the old lady talked about Liu Qingsu, Liu Jingming was also a little unnatural in his heart, but he was actually more willing to believe the old lady's words. As a father, Liu Jingming didn't want to believe that his daughter would be so scheming and corrupt.

What's more, aside from what these old ladies said, it actually makes a lot of sense. After all, a house has always been based on long houses.

So Liu Jingming said after the old lady finished speaking: "Mother's worries are not unreasonable. ”

Liu Jingye hadn't found out about Liu Yuanyi's matter yet, so he was silent for a while after listening to the old lady's words and said, "My son will pay attention to it." ”

Liu Jingping didn't know what to say, but he also followed Liu Jingye and said: "My son will also pay attention in the future." (To be continued......)
