Chapter 266
However, before leaving, Zhu Yidao went to see Qian Ning again, and he looked even weaker. Lao Zhu really couldn't bear to irritate him, but he still sighed and said leisurely: "Qin Zhixian did not carry out the execution, but put all the prisoners in prison, saying that it was a case of Tongwei, and there was a big loophole in the case, and he sent people to the province to send a report, and asked several yamen to try the case together. ”
"I already know......," Channing nodded expressionlessly, then coughed again.
"In addition, there is a report," Zhu Yidao carefully handed over a tissue, "Sun Jin openly used the signboard of the Weaving Bureau to transport the grain ship to Chun'an and Jiande counties. It's time for the day to count and today. ”
"This day is coming after all......" Qian Ning looked up at the sky and slowly closed his eyes, "They are going to have a showdown, but why should the emperor be involved, what do they want to do under the brand of the Weaving Bureau!" ”
"Probably the dog jumped off the wall in a hurry, He Jinxian has gone crazy!" Lao Zhu also said coldly. The situation in Zhejiang is so complicated that it affects the whole body.
"That Sun Jin is relying on the Weaving Bureau, why should he get involved with He Jinxian!" Qian Ning seemed to be asking himself, and he seemed to be asking Zhu Yidao.
"He must be trying to prepare an extra way back for himself!" Lao Zhu thought about it carefully and said, "At the moment, the most important thing is to change Chun'an from rice to mulberry, so I have to stop for the time being, and the field cannot be sold." It would be too unrealistic to expect Qin Zhixian to be there alone. Mr. Qian still hopes you can help him more at this juncture! ”
"I'm not going to let them do anything right under my nose!" Channing nodded slowly but firmly, "But I'm more worried...... Internal worries will attract external troubles......"
"You mean the Woko?!" Zhu Yidao woke up in shock: "It's unlikely, Qi Jiguang has already beaten them back then, is it possible that they will make a mistake at this time?" ”
Qian Ning chuckled and shook his head: "I'm not worried that they dare to make another offense, but I'm worried...... North Korea. ”
This time it was extremely secret to enter Beijing again, and Lao Zhu only brought a few guards with him, and the others stayed in Zhejiang, and they had more important tasks. On the night he returned to Beijing, Zhu Yidao looked at the kind of heavy city wall with vicissitudes of life, and the sergeants dotted on the arrow tower suddenly felt that he should go home first. Before leaving, Shen Hui was already pregnant for two or three months, and I don't know what happened now? I did some secret work, and I couldn't even write letters.
He arranged for a few sergeants to go to the camp of the guard post on the outskirts of Beijing first, and told Jiang Fei about the situation in Zhejiang during this time, and he rode his horse and galloped home.
Shen Hui was already about to give birth to a tall belly, and even her daily activities were a little inconvenient. Shen Yun has already found a way to invite several old mothers to take care of Shen Hui, who is about to give birth. When Lao Zhu entered the door, he deliberately didn't let the porter inform him, and quietly walked straight to the house.
In the courtyard of the bedroom, Shen Hui was half-lying on the recliner and gently stroked her belly, not knowing what she was muttering to herself, Lao Zhu smiled and quietly touched her from behind, gently covering her eyes: "Guess who I am?" ”
"I didn't notice when I came back, I was scared to death by you." Shen Hui didn't panic as he imagined, nor did he knock off his hand, but smiled sweetly.
"Now that I'm back, of course I'm going to surprise you! Let me hear let me hear! Looking at her big belly, a huge sense of happiness suddenly filled Zhu Yidao's whole body, and he was about to become a father! He was so excited that he carefully put his ear on Shen Hui's stomach.
"Do you hear that? He's kicking you! I didn't know to come back for so long! Shen Hui's expression darkened as she spoke, "As soon as you go out, it's been so long, so you have to come to write a letter, let me know that you are safe over there." ”
Zhu Yidao's face was ashamed. Why didn't he want to come back early, but the situation in Zhejiang did not allow him to come back, so he could only look forward to it. Since ancient times, it has been difficult to achieve both the family and the country, and now I have thoroughly realized it.
"It's so cold, you have to wear more clothes in the yard!" Lao Zhu said distressedly, and gently took off the big placket on his body and covered Shen Hui's stomach: "What should I do if my little knife is frozen!" ”
"Giggles!" Hearing Lao Zhu call the baby who was still in her belly, Shen Hui chuckled: "How can you call your son that!" But don't worry, how can I let Xiao Yidao freeze? How many days are you going to stay when you come back this time? ”
"I'm afraid I won't be able to stay long," as soon as he remembered that he had to meet Wanli Zhu Yidao, full of reluctance, "The emperor has an invitation, we have to go even if we don't want to go, I don't know what kind of work he wants to send me!" ”
"Since the emperor has a holy decree, then you must respect it! Go quickly, my Lord of the Thousand Households, don't leave the state affairs behind! Shen Hui smacked him with a powder hammer and said.
"Oh, it's so enviable, it's enviable!" A voice suddenly came from the lobby, and before anyone walked in, Lao Zhu heard that it was Wanli coming. Now it is not as good as before, there should be rules for monarchs and ministers, and he was about to kneel and salute, when he saw Wanli hurriedly waving his palms at him, signaling him not to kneel.
What's going on? Lao Zhu was confused.
"Is it Brother Zhu? It's been a long time since you've been here! Shen Hui was also very happy to hear this familiar voice. In her impression, Lao Zhu doesn't have two friends in Beijing, and the house is deserted on weekdays, and no one comes at all, Zhu Da suddenly came to visit today, and he must have learned the news of Lao Zhu's return: "I'll let the next person go and prepare some food, you two go into the house and chat, it's cold outside!" With that, she struggled to get up and call out to the next person.
"Lie down, lie down, sister-in-law, didn't I say you, now you are a great hero of the Zhu family, this kind of thing just order the people to do it, why go yourself?" Wanli laughed and helped her back to the recliner, turned around, and said to the little eunuch who followed, "You also go and help Zhang Luo!" ”
The little eunuch was full of excitement: Today, Long Live Lord actually shouted sister-in-law to a woman from a thousand households, if this is spread...... He knew what the emperor meant by letting him help, so he turned around in a panic and ran to the kitchen, thinking that he hadn't heard anything tonight and had not seen anything! Amitabha Buddha Lord bless!
Lao Zhu seemed to understand something, looked at Wanli with complicated eyes, and was speechless for a long time. What he didn't know was that Wanli never allowed anyone to reveal his identity to Shen Hui, including those subordinates of the Zhu family, several of whom were spies he had quietly planted. It is his luck and his misfortune to live in the palace, and he has no family affection, he can't even set up his favorite son as the prince as he wants, and he even has to be careful with his mother. Probably when he was still in Xinyang County, he liked to be with Shen Hui very much, not because he meant that to her, but that Wanli found the kind of thing that he couldn't find in his mother's body.
The Queen Mother always regarded Wanli as an emperor, but never regarded him as her own son.
"Let's come in and talk!" Shen Hui said with a smile, and immediately a few people came over and carried the reclining chair to the house.
Looking at Shen Hui's happy face and feeling the warmth of family affection, Wanli suddenly froze. Zheng Guifei is good at everything, but why can't she find Shen Hui's feeling there?
Wanli's body seemed to be a lot blessed, and his back was a little blessed, but the eyes that couldn't be concealed betrayed his heart. Lao Zhu whispered to him: "The emperor has offended many ministers, and he is terrified. ”
Wanli glanced at him strangely, didn't say a word, and entered the room with his hands behind his back. Lao Zhu was stunned for a while, smiled wryly, shook his head, and followed into the house. Forget it, the emperor can play as much as he likes!
During the meal, Wanli suddenly asked, "The emperor asked me to ask you how the situation in Zhejiang is now?" ”
Zhu Yidao frowned when he heard this, and put down his chopsticks: "It's not going well, it's not going well." There is pressure from both inside and outside, Zhejiang regards this change from rice to mulberry as an opportunity for a big windfall, and the method is quite simple and crude, but where can things be so simple? Even if they want money, they can't force those disaster victims to rebel against the Ming Dynasty, right? Now the southwest has begun to suffer from a major drought...... I'm really worried that if the Miao people in the southwest also turn against me, half of the Ming Dynasty will ......."
"Why can't food prices come down?" Wanli also frowned and put down his chopsticks.
"If you want to suppress the price of grain, it means completely offending the entire Zhejiang officialdom. If they all pick on their faults or find ways to find trouble, will the national policy still be implemented? Now the key is not only that Zhejiang officialdom changed rice to mulberry, but it has already involved the court and the palace. Sun Jin's account book, I managed to get a little bit of it, and the content on it was simply shocking! They not only want to lead the troubled water to the palace, but also want to splash it on the emperor's body! In order to follow their method, they even desperately squeezed out and cracked down on individual officials who did not obey them, for fear that these people would block their financial path......" Lao Zhu's tone was heavy, and before he finished speaking, Wanli slapped the table fiercely:
"It's just a mess! The treasury is already like this, and they are still thinking of making a big profit! They fish a little in the palace, a little in the court, and a little more, so how much is left for the emperor?! ”
"Up to a fifth." Zhu Yidao was not afraid of offending people when he said this, and looked at Wanli with blazing eyes. He knew that there were some situations that Wanli who was far away in the deep palace did not know.
Shen Hui timidly watched them talk about national affairs, although she knew that she was a female streamer and really shouldn't interject, but she couldn't help but whisper: "Husband, I don't know if I have a little idea......
The eyes of the two men suddenly swept over fiercely, but Wanli's eyes were surprised, and Lao Zhu's eyes were warnings.
"You say yes." Wanli said first, and then glared at Lao Zhu again.
The sweat behind the cold Tianlao Zhu began to flow down. Hui'er, don't talk nonsense!
