Chapter 139: Anonymous Reporting

The next day, Xie Heng took Li Yuntian to the household department, and after transferring a group of people from the household department, he went to inspect the Jingcang in the city, the so-called Jingcang is the warehouse that stores grain inside and outside the capital. The fastest and most stable update is to see the latest chapter of Perfect World.

After Emperor Yongle moved the capital to Beijing, he set up a separate Jingcang and Tongzhou Cang, which were managed by the officials of the household department, and the grain in them was eaten by the royal family and civil and military officials in the capital, and was not allowed to be eaten by the common people.

The rice of the civil and military officials came from the Jingcang warehouse, and it was not purchased from the market by the household, and it was usually high-quality rice grain.

There are only three situations in which the grain in Jingcang can be sold to the common people, one is the colored rice at the bottom of the house, that is, expired mildew; the second is to sweep and scatter soil and rice; Third, there is a surplus of grain in the warehouse.

When they arrived at the Jingcang warehouse, Xie Heng asked the officials of the household department to check the past accounts of the Jingcang, and he and Li Yuntian checked the preservation status of the grain in the warehouse.

The officials of Jingcang waited diligently on the sidelines, only promised, for fear that there would be something inconsiderate.

If Xie Heng wants to make things difficult for the officials in Jingcang, it is very simple, as long as he says that the grain in the warehouse is not well preserved and is in old condition, then the officials in Jingcang will want to cry without tears.

In the evening, the officials of Jingcang held a banquet in the restaurant to entertain Xie Heng and Li Yuntian and others according to the custom, and this kind of etiquette of welcoming and sending them off is indispensable and belongs to the normal category of officialdom communication.

The atmosphere at the wine table was very warm, and the officials in Jingcang frequently toasted Li Yuntian and Xie Heng, and those great gods of the Metropolitan Procuratorate were something they could not afford to provoke.

On the way to the drinking party, Li Yuntian went to the thatched toilet to relieve himself, and when he came back from the thatched toilet and passed through the courtyard, a person hurriedly walked over with his head down, bumped into him and left quickly, and soon disappeared outside the courtyard gate.

Li Yuntian felt that this person was a little strange, and couldn't help but turn his head to take a look, but he only saw a back, and didn't see the other party's frontal appearance.

Although he was a little curious in his heart, Li Yuntian didn't take it to heart, and walked away, maybe the other party was in a hurry.

When she got home in the evening, when Xue'er was waiting for Li Yuntian's wide clothes, a small ball of paper stacked together fell out of Li Yuntian's belt and fell to the ground.

Xue'er noticed the small paper ball, picked it up and opened it for a look, and then her face changed and handed it to Li Yuntian, the content on it was to accuse the officials of Jingcang of reselling Jingcang's grain, and stealing dragons and phoenixes, shoddy, and wantonly making profits from it.

Looking at the note in his hand, Li Yuntian suddenly remembered the person who hit him in the yard, and it seemed that the other party took the opportunity to stuff it into his belt.

Since there was no signature on the note, Li Yuntian didn't know the identity of that person, but if he could know so much insider, he must be someone in Jingcang.

Faced with this brainless report, Li Yuntian shook his head a little helplessly, Jingcang is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Households, if the report is true, then it will definitely implicate the people of the Ministry of Households, and maybe a group of officials will be involved at that time.

Now that he has just arrived, it is not appropriate to be too sharp, so he can't intervene in this case yet, so he can only wait for the opportunity.

However, Li Yuntian had already remembered the person who secretly gave him the note, although he didn't see the other party's appearance, but the other party's back and walking posture had been imprinted in his mind, as long as he saw this person, he was confident that he would recognize it.

"Master, what did you write?" Zhou Yuting was sitting in front of the dresser and being removed by the two maids, and when she saw Li Yuntian shaking her head, she asked with some curiosity.

"Trouble!" Li Yuntian smiled bitterly and handed her the note.

"It's disgusting that there is such a thing." After Zhou Yuting finished reading the contents of the note, her willow eyebrows suddenly straightened, and she said in a coquettish voice to Li Yuntian, "Pull out those silverfish and cut off their heads!" ”

"The check must be checked, but the time has not yet come, now we must first figure out the truth of the content on it, and then wait for the time, and when the time is ripe, it will be all wiped out." Li Yuntian walked over and stood aside to help remove the hair ornament on Zhou Yuting's head.

A Guogong's mother celebrates her 80th birthday today, and Zhou Yuting followed her father and mother to celebrate her birthday.

"By the way, I heard today that it seems that the King of Han is going to enter Beijing, and many people give the emperor a chapter, hoping that the King of Han can accompany the emperor to fulfill his filial piety." After Zhou Yuting handed the note to Xue'er to put away, she suddenly remembered something and said casually.

"King Han?" Li Yuntian's brows furrowed slightly, he had been busy with the affairs of the Imperial Procuratorate in the past two days, how could he forget such an important person.

Like Emperor Yongle, Han King Zhu Gaochu was heroic and heroic, with outstanding military achievements, Yongle Emperor Jingjing had defeated Duchang, and the general Zhang Yu died in battle, and later Zhu Gaochu led his troops to save Emperor Yongle in time, so he was deeply supported by those Jingnan nobles, and almost pulled the prince off the horse a few years ago.

Now the Yongle Emperor has been dying of old age, frail and sickly, if the Han King enters Beijing, then the Yongle Emperor Bintian will inevitably appear after the two dragons to seize the situation, the Han King has the support of the nobles, and the prince has the support of the Wenchen, then the deer will die who is really hard to say.

Whether from the perspective of personal feelings or future development, the nobles in the court undoubtedly hoped that the Han king, who had fought side by side with them, would inherit the throne, so that the nobles would continue to maintain their superiority over the civil servants in the court.

The crown prince is close to the ministers, the ministers have always adhered to the orthodoxy, when the Yongle Emperor ascended the throne, Fang Xiaoru swore to the death because the Yongle Emperor was not the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty, and the guide zhì was exterminated ten clans.

Now that more than 20 years have passed, it is the turn of the prince and the king of Han again, and those civil servants naturally adhere to orthodoxy and support the prince's accession to the throne.

A few years ago, if it weren't for Yang Shiqi and Yang Rong, the prince would have been deposed by Emperor Yongle, but this also made the prince's close ministers Xie Jin unjustly die and Huang Huai imprisoned, and the fight was not cruel.

Thinking that the Marquis of Zhongyong was also a noble of Jingnan, Li Yuntian had something to say to Zhou Yuting, but when he saw that there was a maid in the house, he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, and this kind of confidential matter could only be told to Zhou Yuting in private.

"What do you think of Cher?" In the evening, after a cloud and rain, Zhou Yuting leaned on Li Yuntian's chest with a rosy cheek, and after calming down a little rapid breathing, she suddenly asked for no reason.

"It's good." Li Yuntian closed his eyes there and replied absentmindedly.

"Since you think she's good, then take her in." Zhou Yuting smiled slightly when she heard this, and reached out to gently caress Li Yuntian's strong chest, "She is nineteen this year, and it is time to get married, although we have been together since childhood, we are actually like sisters although we are called master and servant, I don't want her to leave, she can stay in this house justifiably after you accept her." ”

"This matter is not in a hurry, you first inquire about Xue'er's meaning, if she wants to get married, then we should give her a good home, it is a little too aggrieved to keep her here." Li Yuntian was quite surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect Zhou Yuting to let him take a concubine, and it was also her personal maid Xue'er, and said after a deep groan.

To be honest, he doesn't have the intention of taking a concubine now, the back house is full enough, it's not that the more women, the better, and he has never liked to be strong.

"Hmm!" Zhou Yuting saw that Li Yuntian didn't agree, she felt a burst of relief in her heart, and couldn't help hugging Li Yuntian tightly, although she wanted Li Yuntian to accept Xue'er, but as a woman, how could she want to share Li Yuntian with other women.

In fact, Zhou Yuting wants Li Yuntian to take Xue'er as a concubine, and there is another layer of deep meaning that she can't say, that is, if she doesn't have an heir in the future, she can give her Xue'er's heir.

It has been more than a year since she married Li Yuntian, but Lu Cao, Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou have become pregnant one after another, but Zhou Yuting's belly has not moved at all, she is nothing, but Li Yuntian's mother-in-law can't sit still.

Generally speaking, if Li Yuntian and Zhou Yuting want to have a child, Zhou Yuting will be pregnant within a year, so after Zhou Yuting returned to Beijing this time, Li Yuntian's mother-in-law secretly took her to see a famous doctor in the capital.

It's a pity that the doctor didn't say why, he checked Zhou Yuting's pulse, and found that Zhou Yuting's body was healthier than ordinary women, and it stands to reason that she should have been pregnant a long time ago.

Since the doctor couldn't find out the reason, Li Yuntian's mother-in-law had to worry about this matter, Zhou Yuting is the main room, but if there are no heirs, then the status of the Li family will be affected by Lu Cao, Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou.

Now that the three of them have been able to inherit the title of Li Yuntian's main room, the mother will be more precious than the son, once Zhou Yuting has no heirs, then Li Yuntian will definitely choose one of the three heirs to inherit the Li family.

Therefore, Li Yuntian's mother-in-law had to take precautions and plan in advance, so that Li Yuntian accepted Xue'er, if Xue'er had an heir in the future, and Zhou Yuting still couldn't get pregnant, then Xue'er's heir could be passed on to Zhou Yuting.

Xue'er is different from Lu Cao, Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou, she is not qualified to inherit the title of the main house, and she is from a girl ring who sells herself, she is not a good concubine, and her status is low, so even if she inherits her heirs to Zhou Yuting in the future, she will not be able to shake the position of the head of Zhou Yuting's back house.

Besides, if there are Green Calyx, Chen Ningning and Zheng Wanrou, Xue'er will not be allowed to trespass in the slightest.

Li Yuntian's mother-in-law's move can be described as well-intentioned, she had to take precautions, plan for Zhou Yuting's future, and ensure Zhou Yuting's status as the master of the Li Mansion.

"Do you know if your father-in-law gave the emperor a chapter to intercede for the king of Han's visit to Beijing?" How did Li Yuntian know Zhou Yuting's thoughts, and asked while stroking Zhou Yuting's long silky hair.

"My dad doesn't seem to be on this piece yet." Zhou Yuting felt that Li Yuntian seemed to have something to say, and raised her head and looked at him suspiciously, "Do you think my father shouldn't be on this concert?" "One
