"It's okay, the leg is just broken!

Ask a doctor to help him pick up his bones, he will not be allowed to leave the house in the future, I will inform the whole government of this later, and you can't let him out.

Steward Min, you stay, tell my daughter-in-law about the specific things, spread it out, crumple it carefully, I don't want to see the head of the house, the housekeeper is a fool. ”

Qiao Mu commanded again, sighed a little disappointed, waved his sleeves and left.

In this capital, a person in charge can lack money or ambition, but he must not lack political sensitivity, let alone the seven tricks of seeing through the world, without these two things, it is difficult to continue the family.

Don't seek to see through people's hearts, the world is insightful, but at least you have to understand what can be done, what can not be done, what news can be leaked out, what news can not be leaked out, if you don't have this self-consciousness, just a court turmoil or a battle for succession, it is possible to fall into a place of no return, if you have the ability, then find a way to fight, know that you are not capable, then honestly shrink, be a transparent person, don't be in the limelight.

That's the way to live in the world.

After Qiao Mu left, Steward Min waved away the attendants around him, half-squatting, and carefully explained the most serious consequences of this matter to Wen Qilian and his wife, who were lying and squatting, and the far-reaching impact in the next few years.

Wen Qilian and his wife were not stupid, but they didn't think so much for a while, and at this time, after hearing Steward Min crumple and explain the matter, they were also shocked into a cold sweat, and Wen Qilian even shivered.

"Are you saying that the dynasty is short of money, there are already floods in the south this year, it is very likely that there will be no harvest, and the tax will be very small, the emperor may think of some other ways to turn around in order to raise enough money for disaster relief, our family is now in such a limelight, but it may become a target, right?"

Wen Qilian was only a little nervous at this time because of the pain all over his body, and his brain was indeed inferior, but he didn't understand the deeper situation, but the Xiao family was also a noble daughter before she got married, and she was nurtured by the family, she had read a lot of books, seen a lot of things, and even read a lot of history books, so she quickly figured it out.

After thinking about it, I understand that the situation is difficult.

The emperor is short of money, and now rumors have begun to circulate in the capital that their family is rich, and when the future natural disasters are confirmed, what should their family do? Donating money may make other nobles dissatisfied, and if you don't donate money, what will the emperor think?

It was a dilemma.

Thinking of this, Xiao couldn't help but turn his head and glared at Wen Qilian with some annoyance, the news of how much money people divide can be spread, it is because the concubine has too little, and he thinks that his mother's division of family property is unfair, but their mother is kind, and she gives extra preferential treatment when dividing the family property, but she never thought that she was stabbed in the back by her own son, no wonder she was so angry just now.

Wen Qilian didn't dare to speak at this time.

His mother beat him, and his daughter-in-law glared at him again, although he couldn't understand the reason, but he didn't dare to ask.

I can only hold on.

"That's it, it's come to this, and we can only see the moves, let's keep a low profile during this time.

Steward Min, I'm bothering you to hire a doctor. ”

Although Xiao Shi figured it out, this matter was not something that she could manage, so she could only sigh and help her treat her legs first.

Steward Min retreated in response.

Immediately afterwards, the entire Xuanhe Hou Mansion was strictly controlled by Qiao Mu, and no news in the mansion was allowed to spread, and the rest remained as usual.

Then in the afternoon, the concubines who had been distributed two days ago began to help dispel the rumors one by one, saying that they did not receive 20,000 taels of silver as rumored, but all the assets added up to about 20,000 taels, indicating that the mother-in-law was benevolent, and the distribution to them was far more than 30%, so they could have so many assets and the like.

Although it failed to completely suppress the rumors that their public treasury had millions of cash, it did play a role, at least the social circle of the dozen or so concubines can be regarded as refuting the rumors, and after a while, it should be able to continue to spread from the social circle of the dozen concubines to the outside and increase the scope of refutation of rumors.

After a few days, there was a smooth transition, and the news was not good or bad, until the fifth day, when the Marquis of Min sounded the drum and sued his second brother and daughter-in-law, which diverted the attention of the people in the capital and caused an uproar.

At this time, Minhou had been brought to the palace by the forbidden army for questioning, and the Xungui and the people of the capital who were watching the excitement were reunited in the Dengwen drum and several teahouses next to the Dengwen drum, gossiping.

In the Wangchun Building

The familiar Xungui was discussing the matter with a smile.

"There have been a lot of things recently, so hasn't Ning Jinzhong been in the bag in the past, he has been pressed by his stepmother for more than ten years, and he has been suppressed after succeeding to the throne, how can he suddenly dare to resist now?

Could it be that the past has been hidden? ”

Prince An Guo said with a chuckle.

"What you said, even if he finds his stepmother's fault, it is impossible to sue his stepmother directly, after all, to sue his parents, it will take thirty boards first, and the same is true for the stepmother.

As far as his body is concerned, I am afraid that most of his life will be lost under the thirty boards, and he may die on the spot, how dare he, now I am afraid that he finally found his second brother and daughter-in-law some fatal crimes, so he has the courage to sue.

To be honest, I now want to visit the old lady who visited the Minhou Mansion, and I want to see what kind of face she is now, I think it must be very exciting, hahahaha! ”

The prince of Jin waved his hand and replied with a smile.

The nobles here are all born to their wives, and they not only hate the sons of the concubines, but also the stepsons born to the step-families, so it is normal to have some schadenfreude at this time.

"I really want to see what you said, why don't we go visit Ning Shi now?"

The so-called Ning Shiyu naturally refers to the second master of Minhou Mansion, that is, the stepbrother, even if they want to visit Minhou Mansion, they can't visit other people's wives or old ladies, they can only visit the male master in Minhou Mansion, Minhou is complaining, naturally they can only find his stepbrother.

Someone took such an initiative, and the remaining princes were really interested, anyway, a few of them were either from the Guogong family, or from the prince's family, and they were really not afraid of anything to see the excitement, so they immediately responded one by one, and soon went to the Minhou Mansion together.

These top nobles have the courage to watch the excitement and are not afraid of big things, and other ordinary nobles and ordinary people don't have the courage to watch the excitement in person, so they just gather around here to discuss with each other, exchange a little bit of information they know about each other, and by the way, sit here and wait to see what the court will judge?

After all, it's a rarity.
