Chapter 10: The Princess Arrives

After the group left the Xianliang Pavilion, they smiled at the people guarding outside the hall, "You lose, we will give this gift today!" ”

"Hey, it's strange, they didn't ask for the gifts given by King Jin and General Xiao Cheng, they didn't ask for them, they received all the broken silver you sent, could it be that the hillbilly doesn't know the goods?"

"Haha, don't look down on Mrs. Wang, we won't tell you the tricks here, come on, come on, the one hundred taels of silver each of you lost must be cashed out today!"

"Princess Youran arrived, and everyone avoided it!"

Without waiting for the group to cash in their bets, a eunuch's shout made them hurriedly leave the door of the Xianliang Pavilion.

"Hurry up, hurry up, this leisurely princess, I can't afford to provoke it!"

"Don't speak, if you are heard, you will be beaten!"

"It doesn't matter if you offend the prince and the king of Jin, this prince is mainly offended, life is better than death!"

The guards outside the gate of the Xianliang Pavilion immediately went to report the signing, and the signator led the servants to run out and kneel down to greet him.

The leading eunuch rode over and greeted him, "Prepare a stool!" Get in the car! ”

The eight guards immediately put away the red curtain of the car and slowly lifted the carriage down, "Please princess stay!" ”

The two waiting maids immediately helped the princess to the red dragon bench.

The princess looked at the signing and others kneeling in front of her, and said, "Get up!" ”

The signing and others responded together, "Princess Xie Youran!" He immediately got up and led the way.

Zhan Fei heard the shouting outside that the princess was coming, so he ran to the door to take a look, and was stunned when he saw it.

I saw this leisurely princess wearing a peony-shaped golden crown, two strands of long hair hanging from her sideburns on both sides of her melon seed face, and her eyes were translucent, somewhat like a man's dress. But on her body is a multicolored long dress with gold and silver light, behind her are four maids holding the skirt for her, with a long sword on her left waist, a gold medal hanging from her right waist, and a jewel the size of a pigeon's egg on each of her shoes, one red and one green.

The princess's eyes suddenly moved to Zhanfei by the door, and she hurriedly looked at it, "Prince Zhanfei, meet Princess Youran, kneel down!" ”

"Gu Signing, presumably this is the Zhanfei I want to see, let him not be formal!"

Gu Zhishi's face was embarrassed, "Princess, this etiquette is still required, otherwise it will be too disrespectful to you!" ”

The princess sneered at Gu Sign, "Gu Sign, it's rare that you remember etiquette at this time, when the palace entrusts you with something, you are good, and you refuse!" However, you, the number one master of Jin Liangwei, only listen to the emperor's words, and this palace will not blame you! ”

Zhanfei had already knelt on the ground and shouted to see the princess, and the princess smiled, "Hurry up, I like an innocent child like you!" ”

Wang Ruoyun also came out at this time and knelt down to meet the princess, and the princess looked at Wang Ruoyun carefully, "Mrs. Wang, get up, this palace will come to see you today!" ”

"Thank you, princess, princess Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

The princess stretched out her hand and took Wang Ruoyun's hand, "Mrs. Wang, can you still live comfortably in this virtuous pavilion?" ”

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness, Princess, everything is fine here, Gu Signer and everyone are very attentive!"

The princess looked at Zhanfei again, "You, stand still, don't move, come and paint a portrait of him!" ”

The princess said that she couldn't move, and Zhanfei naturally didn't dare to move, standing in place, the painter brought by the princess immediately painted.

instructed the painter to paint a portrait of Zhanfei, and the princess herself pulled Wang Ruoyun around and talked about some costumes, jewelry, rouge and other things.

Wang Ruoyun chatted very happily, and forgot for a while that he had a son Zhanfei.

Zhanfei motionlessly asked the princess's painter to paint it.

The chat with Wang Ruoyun is finally over, and the portrait here is also painted.

The princess picked up the portrait and looked at it, turned around and said, "The palace has left beforehand!" ”

After the princess left, Zhanfei and Wang Ruoyun discussed for a long time.

"Mother, this princess is actually quite good, they all say that the princess is cruel and cruel, but today is still good to us"

"My mother thinks so too, she told her about jewelry and spices for a long time, and there is no shelf at all!"

The maids also spoke, and the princess gave both the maids and the servants a great deal of silver before leaving.

"Mrs. Wang, Childe, the princess can be so close to you, she must have taken a fancy to Childe!"

"Yes, so many princes from all over the world are begging to see the princess, and the princess doesn't even look at it, but the princess personally helped him up today!"

"The princess will be able to soar in the future, and the princess can take a fancy to the person, she can't be wrong!"

As the maids were talking, Zhan Fei shook his head again and again, "Sisters, don't make fun of me, the princes are not qualified, I'm a poor boy, Hey, I haven't thought about it, don't talk nonsense"

The maids continued to joke about Zhanfei, and Gu Signer walked in from outside, "Don't mess around!" The princess is also something you can discuss? How many lives do you have? ”

Gu Sign's face darkened, and the maids hurriedly retreated, Zhanfei looked at Gu Sign, "Lord Gu, the princess said that you are the number one master of Jin Liangwei, is it true?" ”

"Hehe, I'm just sent by Jin Liangwei to do chores, I only joined Jin Liangwei five years ago, and I was mixed up on an errand to sign things, and the princess was just joking at me! By the way, don't ask about Jin Liangwei casually, it's taboo! ”

"Master Gu, I inquired just now, it doesn't matter!"

"You've already committed a taboo, don't think about playing tricks! Remember, in the Xianliangkan, don't ask around, don't talk nonsense, and don't believe what other people say! Except for me! ”

On the way back to the palace, the prince and his party also returned, and according to etiquette, the princess had to avoid the prince and let the prince's team pass first.

But Princess Youran blocked the prince and forced the prince and his party to wait until she walked away first.

"Prince, the mother and son sent by the emperor to pick them up, do you want to go and see them? King Jin and the princess are gone! The crown prince Xima Qin and An reminded

"No, the first thing I did when I returned to Beijing was to report back to Yongzhou, and state affairs are important!"

The prince and Deng Hua entered the palace, and the rest of them took Xiao Kui and others who came back from Chang'an to Dali Temple.

The emperor had already summoned Xiao Xian, Wang Fu, Chen Yu, Yuan Xiuwen and Jin Liangwei wearing a mask to lead, Yongzhou This time the incident was too big, first, Xiao Kui actually sold the official grain to the Xiao family's business for profit, and the inferior grain and rice were transferred to the imperial court, second, the prince also unexpectedly transferred the Fengxiang garrison without authorization, and third, Jin Liangwei did not notice any news in advance.

The emperor looked at the crowd, and finally stopped at the masked commander Jin Liangwei.

"Your Majesty, the minister is derelict in his duties, and the two Jin Liangwei in Yongzhou have already apologized for their crimes!"

"They're dead, but they're all gone, stupid! Idiot! Everything Jin Liangwei did in Yongzhou was in vain, I have long said that I don't hide my virtue with a glance, as long as Jin Liangwei is not a rebellion, I can forgive other mistakes! ”

The masked man wanted to say something, but the emperor waved his hand again and again, "Forget it, you stand down!" Yongzhou's affairs, you personally take people away! ”

The masked commander quickly went out, and the emperor looked at Wang Fu again, "General Wang, Wang Weiquan is your subordinate, and the Fengxiang Army is your deployment, could it be that the prince wants your General Wang to assist in advance?" ”

"The minister is afraid, the minister is not strict in governing the army, even if he wants to ask for instructions to transfer troops, he must first ask His Majesty! minister

And the soldiers are also only under the orders of His Majesty. This time, the Fengxiang army went out privately, the situation was unclear, the minister was negligent, and the minister was derelict in his duties! ”

"You always blame yourself when something happens, shouting to ask for guilt! I don't want you to blame yourself, I just want to know what happened. ”

Wang Fu didn't dare to come out, Xiao Xian took the initiative to speak, "Brother Xiao Kui, sold official food, filled his own pockets, and his crime is unforgivable, fortunately, His Majesty Tianwei, the prince was alert, and he was arrested and brought to justice, kept the official grain of Yongzhou, and disposed of the illegal profiteers!" ”

"Xiao Kui is really too disappointing to me, the Xiao family is not short of money, he is insatiable, he secretly sells the official grain transferred to the border, his matter does not need to be discussed anymore, he will be decided, the family property will be confiscated, as for the family, exile Banzhou!"

"Minister, brother, thank you, Your Majesty Longen!" Xiao Xian immediately knelt down and cried, Xiao Kui's crime should have been Ling Chi's execution of the three clans of Zhulian according to the law of Daliang.

"The prince will be here soon, everyone, you might as well listen to what the prince has to say!"

The crown prince and Deng Hua entered the Chongde Hall with sweat, knelt down to worship the emperor, and handed over their respective reports to the eunuch to present.

The emperor flipped through the newspaper and put it aside, "I'm too tired to read the newspaper, I want to hear the prince and Lord Deng talk about Yongzhou in person today!" ”

"Back to the father, the son of the minister pleaded guilty, and the son of the minister transferred the Fengxiang army without authorization, which ruined the court system"

"Don't say it! What I want to listen to is what Yongzhou officials have done in the past few years? I'm going to hear about your inspection! ”

Liu Fu'an was a little surprised: "Father, except for the new garrison Gaode in Yongzhou Mansion, the rest of the officials of all sizes were involved in the case of embezzlement of official grain, falsified records of the allocation of official grain, built secret tunnels to smuggle official grain, and even embezzled the money and silver in the treasury of Yongzhou Mansion to fill the deficit of stealing official grain!" Xiao Kui was the state pastor, and his sons did not dare to dispose of it without authorization, so he took it back to the capital. The rest of the officials and ministers disposed of most of them during their time in Chang'an, and those who committed minor crimes continued to be fined to see the aftermath! ”

"Petropolitan! The retention of such greedy officials is not to let the imperial court leave a handle on the defense of officials and officials in the people? ”

"Son, father, if one of the officials of Yongzhou Mansion is not left, I am afraid that the affairs of Yongzhou will not be able to be handled!"

"Pedantic to the extreme! The most important thing in the world is this person who is an official, how many people are waiting to be officials? Alas, it is said that the prince is benevolent, and sure enough, he is very benevolent! ”

Liu Fuan lowered his head and felt that no matter what he did, he would not satisfy his father, and before he could speak, Deng Hua spoke.

"Your Majesty, Yongzhou Mansion really needs to refresh the rule of officials, but the shortcomings of this inspection may not be absent from other state capitals. This military cantonment transit through the state capital was originally for the turnover of the states and the preparation of grain for disaster relief, but the garrison of the garrison and the establishment of the tuntian made the grade not as good as the six cao of the state capital, let alone talk to the state pastor on an equal footing! And the transshipment envoy who is in charge of transshipment is neither controlled by local officials nor responsible to the garrisons in various places, and if the affairs of this transshipment are investigated, the minister does not dare to think about it! ”

Everyone looked at Deng Hua, and Xiao Xian also came to the spirit, "What Lord Deng said is extremely true, the rank of the garrison and the system is too low to restrain the local officials, and they have no right to intervene in the affairs of the transfer envoys. ”

The emperor's face was very ugly, "I used the civil servants to control the military generals, and the local prefectures, counties and county officials were higher in grade than the local garrisons, in order to prevent the military generals from separating one side and harming the people, but these people have failed my hard work." Well, the grade is lower than that of the local civil officials and they dare to send troops to surround the Assassin's Mansion, if the grade is the same, can this state pastor still control the local military generals? ”

Speaking of which, the emperor looked at the crown prince and Wang Fu again, Wang Weiquan's matter is not over yet!
