Chapter 315: Contest
"Raising food doesn't mean they don't want to be subservient." Mu Yunting knew that Huang Funuo was still not at ease with those border generals, and tried his best to persuade him to fight, frowning and said, "The emperor can't send troops to crusade against them because of this matter, right?" The minister thought that as long as they could defend the land and water and ensure the peace of the territory, these trivial matters did not need to be pursued. ”
"Speaking of which, Lord Mu still doesn't want to fight." Huang Funuo held back a wave of anger in his heart, and smiled coldly, "That Shen Ke ......"
"Although Shen Ke is the minister's brother-in-law, he made a mistake and should bear all the consequences, and the minister cannot be favoritism." Mu Yunting said without thinking, "The country has national laws, and the family has family rules, and ministers can't ignore the king's law because of their own selfish feelings." ”
"A good country has national laws, and the family has family rules, and Mu Daren is really happy to refuse!" Huang Funuo narrowed his expression, looked at him scrutinizingly, and said coldly, "Master Mu, I know that you are close to the Fourth Highness, and I also know what you are thinking in your heart, I have also talked with you openly before, I hope that you and I can put aside our prejudices against each other, and the monarch and the minister can live in harmony, and now it seems that Lord Mu does not appreciate it." ”
Hum!
Don't think that you Mu Yunting has some ability, I don't dare to touch you, after cleaning up those arrogant generals, it will be your turn Mu Yunting.
"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers don't appreciate it, but that Shen Ke made a mistake and deserves to be punished, and the ministers don't dare to show favoritism!" Mu Yunting said expressionlessly, "Besides, the current high price of grain in the city is not the time to raise grain and grass, the emperor can rest assured, the minister will definitely closely monitor every move on the border." Definitely won't let them make any waves. ”
At this time, a eunuch came in to serve tea and looked at Mu Yunting, as if he had something to report, so Mu Yunting took the opportunity to resign.
was so angry that Huang Funuo pushed all the folds on the table to the ground: "I really did a bad job of being this emperor, this Mu Yunting didn't even take me in his eyes at all, it's really unbearable!" ”
I want to kill him.
"The emperor is angry." The eunuch hurriedly bent down tremblingly to pick up the folds on the ground, and persuaded in a soft voice, "The emperor's ninety-five honor, why are you angry for these rough people? ”
"How is Shen Ke?" Huang Funuo asked indignantly.
Seemingly. Don't give him some color. He doesn't know who has the final say in the world.
"I can eat and sleep, there is no joy or sorrow, and my life is comfortable." The eunuch reported, "Although his voice is hoarse." But the complexion looks good. ”
"Hmph. He's having a good time. The more Huang Funuo spoke, the more angry he became. Angrily, he commanded, "Speed up the interrogation process, if he still refuses to confess." Then do according to the law. ”
"Yes." The eunuch's expression was grim and he hurriedly retreated.
Mu Yunting returned to the yamen.
Those grain store owners have long been aware of the news, and they are talking a lot, and they are also victims of the increase in grain prices!
Seeing Mu Yunting coming in, everyone stopped.
Mu Yunting glanced at the crowd, looked down at the case, and his face sank: "The owner of the nameless grain shop on the outskirts of the city stays, and the others retreat." ”
"......" The boss chuckled in his heart, thinking that something bad was wrong.
Yiqing Garden.
Su Shi looked at the bills of the past few days and frowned: "There hasn't been any population in the house recently, how can I buy food alone, and I have 30% more silver than last month?" ”
"Mrs. Hui, the price of grain in the capital has been high recently, so the silver expenditure is a little more." Xu Youfu said with a smile, "At present, the price of grain is still rising, and there is no way to do it, many families in the city can't afford to buy grain." ”
Because Xu Youfu made great contributions and received a lot of rewards from the Su family, he quietly resigned from the position of pedestrian Sima Fu, came to a grain store in the capital, and under the recommendation of Mama Xu, he actually made several big businesses, which made him very proud.
Only then did Su Shi know that the price of grain had risen so much recently, so he had to take the private seal and stamp it, and asked Xu Youfu to go to the account room to get the silver, and then turned his head and sighed to Mama Xu, "I haven't gone out for a long time, and the master hasn't come to me for a few days, so my eyes are black and I don't know what's going on outside." ”
"Madam, the slave is very unhappy to see the master these days, and when she comes back from the yamen, she hides in the study most of the time to read and write, and she doesn't even go to Aunt Tian often." Mama Xu said in a low voice, "Madame, it's better to pay more attention and go to the study to see the master." ”
She saw that the Su family was not as active with Mu Changyuan as a few years ago, was she disappointed in this man?
"The heart is gone, what is there left?" Su Shi sneered, "I'm old, can I still grab a man with that little slut?" Wouldn't it make people laugh to death if they spread it? Anyway, my lord and I are like this, he will go wherever he falls in love, out of sight and out of mind. ”
"But Madame and Master are husband and wife after all, wouldn't Madame be cheaper for Aunt Tian to do this?" Mama Xu frowned and said, "That woman's days have become more and more moisturized, and she has always been around Qingxinyuan to watch the children with the second young lady these days." The two of them are intimate! ”
"As long as the eldest young master and the fifth young master are doing well, I will be satisfied." Su Shi lowered his head and stroked his white and delicate fingers, and said, "That's it, it doesn't matter, whether there is a man or not, it's the same." ”
If the heart is absent, what's the use of forcing it?
"Madam, this eldest young master has always been protected by Madame, and he has come all the way, except for the difficulties in terms of heirs, there is nothing else." Saying that, Mama Xu hurriedly slapped her face again, "Look at my mouth, Aunt Wu is about to give birth, and the eldest young master will have a son soon." ”
The most taboo thing for the Su family is that others say that Mu Yunche has no heirs.
"Although I have seen the fetal image, I said that it was a boy, but I hope so!" Su Shi's eyebrows stretched a little, and then frowned, "I didn't expect that after so many years, Wu's niece would actually be my daughter-in-law, and I felt very uncomfortable when I saw that Wu." ”
"Madam, a woman's birth is a ghost gate, and she can't say anything!" Mama Xu understood and sneered, "I'm afraid that I don't have to wait for Mrs. to worry about this matter, and the young lady won't be able to spare her." ”
Aunt Wu has been pregnant for the past few days, and the Xia family hasn't made much noise, maybe she is waiting for this day!
"As long as the child is okay, I don't bother to care about other things." Su Shi sighed again, "Right now, the matter of the eldest young master is the most important. ”
She has endured it for so many years, just to get back what belongs to her son for her.
At this time, Xu Youfu lifted the curtain and walked in, and came in respectfully to say goodbye: "Madam, retire below." ”
"Blessed, remember, you must continue to keep an eye on Mu Yunting, and don't come to the Hou Mansion if there is nothing important." Su Shi sneered, "I don't believe it, I won't get what I want." (To be continued......)
PS: Happy holidays to everyone!
