Qianqian, who wanted to talk about the palace situation to Du Heng, was not angry because she had already known it in her heart, but she had to let Du Heng tell her grievances, so Qianqian pulled the corners of her mouth and asked with a smile: "Sister Heng, how bad is it, you can talk about it." ”

"Well, okay, I didn't want to tell my sister about this matter, so you should worry about it, but since you are already this heart, then my sister should also tell you about these things.

In addition to the silver used by the emperor to build military horses, the silver deposit of the inner money has long been used up, and now I am afraid that there is no money for purchase, at the end of last year, the household department only allocated us two thousand taels of silver, which is only enough for the queen mother's year, and even the concubine and your year, our account can not be taken out at all, can you mention others?

At the beginning of the year, the total amount of silver deposited was 1,800 taels, and the remaining silver was just enough for our unborn baby alone. ”

Qianqian frowned and said coldly, "Is it that except for the queen mother and our unborn child, everyone else is about to drink the northwest wind?" ”

"Isn't it!" Du Heng's face was indignant, "Sister, did you say that Yan Qiheng also bullied people?" ”

Qianqian didn't continue her words, and instead said, "The planned 300,000 taels of silver will be used for Juntian, no matter whether the implementation is not in place, for the inertia of the policy, we have to take out this money, but we are used to seeing the progress of the implementation of the Juntian order." In addition to Dongchang and your brother Zhongxiangbo to do it, the palace hopes that Du Heng and Fangzhi will take care of this matter behind the scenes, and command Dongchang and Zhongxiangbo, be sure to monitor from both the inner court and the Metropolitan Procuratorate

Strict investigation does not wait. ”

Fang Zhi looked at Qianqian, a little wanted to say something, Qianqian also saw her appearance, and smiled lightly, "Du Heng is afraid that Ma Rulong's matter will become the truth of others, when the time comes, some people will say that Ma Rulong has not handled it, let's go to others, people will say, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and he does not suffer from widowhood but unevenness, right?"

But even if Ma Rulong and we have to wait for the mother to nod, other cases must be investigated, otherwise our money will be all lost. ”

Fang Zhi and Du Heng nodded yes at the same time.

"Also," Qianqian pursed her lips and pondered for a moment, and said: "The cabinet and the household department are so in step with the emperor this time, it must be not as simple as picking the door, if they are not mistaken, they are still coming to the palace." ”

Several people looked at Qianqian in confusion, and Qianqian said to Fang Zhi, "Don't beat it, this posture has been in this position for a long time, and you are also tired and panicked, get up, you can sit down and rest." ”

Fang Zhi thanked and carefully sat on the side of the collapse, Qianqian smiled, and her apricot eyes aimed at her, "Let you sit, you will sit comfortably, they are all your own family, but you always can't let go, this is really not like Sister He." ”

Fang Zhi's face turned red, she lowered her head and sat down inside, Qianqian continued, "You all know that Fourth Sister Zhao's husband ran away, I received information from Dongchang last night, saying that he had been arrested by the Duke of Qianguo in Hechi Prefecture yesterday, and when he was caught, he was fleeing to Guizhou with his family. Yu Linjun also immediately interrogated him on the way with the people of Dongchang, and the guy couldn't stand the torture, so he confessed to everything. ”

Qianqian's mood fluctuated a little, relieved, Yu Qing'er hurriedly handed her a cup of tea, Qianqian took a sip, her mood eased slightly, but her face was still red, "He confessed that Fourth Sister Zhao had been over for almost a year, and before she was pregnant, his mother urged him to take a concubine, as the county lord who married the heavenly family, Fourth Sister Zhao naturally refused, all the county lords who married out at that time said that it was monogamous, and the husband's family was not allowed to take concubines, how could he allow his family to go back on his word and break his promise?"

Since then, there have been some unpleasant words on both sides, and the guy thinks that Fourth Sister Zhao is disobedient, but he is afraid that our palace will support her and dare not divorce his wife, so he has bad intentions in his heart, and wants Fourth Sister Zhao to die quietly. ”

Yu Qing'er clenched her fists fiercely, bit her lip and said: "This pair of mother and son are hateful enough, Fourth Sister Zhao has only been married for less than a year, how can she not give birth to children?"

It is said that the daughter-in-law who has been a mother-in-law for many years, these old people are not ashamed, and they were also bullied by their mother-in-law when they were young, thinking that they had become a mother-in-law, and then poured all the anger they had suffered in the past on their daughter-in-law's head as they were.

But the county lord who married Duxiufeng could not suffer such pickled gas, so even if Fourth Sister Zhao was pregnant, the man's mother would still find out all kinds of reasons! Or the emperor said it well, this matter should be set an example and deal with him and his Lao Tzu Niang strictly! ”

Although Qianqian nodded, she also sighed and said, "Qing'er, you didn't see it, the cabinet and the household department just mentioned are coming to the palace, and the mystery is also in this matter." ”

Yu Qing'er snorted and said, "Hmph, the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, we want to be a murderer, how can we have anything to do with Qu Shiyun and Yan Qiheng?" What reason do they have against it? ”

"Of course there is, they will regard this matter as if the palace is manipulating the husband of the Duxiu Peak County Lord, and once the Duxiu Peak County Lord is married by the main palace enough, and the control is effective, they will realize the threat. They will think that all the husbands of the county lord of Duxiu Peak are the disciples of the main palace, and they are the so-called green demon party in their mouths. ”

Qianqian couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly when she said this word, "Isn't this name already spread now?" Once our Green Demon Party gains power and spreads its wings among the civil officials, then naturally there will be nothing to do with the Donglin Wu Party and the Chu Party.

They were afraid of being excluded and marginalized, so they stumbled over the remaining 300,000 taels of silver in the user department and competed with the palace and the emperor. And this is also the second thing that this palace wants to say, no matter what tricks the hundred officials come up with to obstruct it, this palace must strictly deal with Fourth Sister Zhao's husband's family! ”

Yu Qing'er was puzzled again, so she blinked and asked: "It is naturally reasonable for my sister to be strict with that family, but the ministers want to oppose this matter, where are their hole cards?" Wouldn't the emperor have attacked Qu Shiyun and Yan Qiheng? ”

"Of course, it's not easy to start, because they will definitely get the support of the majority of civil officials in this matter, whether it is the Chu Party or the Wu Party, they will not do anything Our Green Goblin Party will become big in the court and ignore it, although the palace nominally controls the Chu Party through Zhongxiangbo and Du Yinxi, but that is also in the case of no differences of interests.

And if they want to oppose us, they will naturally not explicitly prevent us from investigating and dealing with murderers, but will stumble the emperor everywhere in the court, after all, once they tear their faces, it will be a complete confrontation, and even the gossip about the palace will only be more, so this matter is very difficult to do. ”
