The shopkeeper Mao is not very clear about this big case in Beiping. He listened to what the golden shopkeeper said.

The gold shopkeeper spent the New Year in Beijing, and when he was very bored, he chatted with his old friends, although he talked about this case, but when he left Beijing, the case was still under review, and there were still many unidentified points, and secondly, it had little to do with him, at most he heard some rumors, but he did not have an in-depth understanding, so he didn't know much.

Xie Pu is the left member of the Beiping Political Envoy Department, and his responsibility is to assist the political envoy in taking charge of the financial and civil affairs of a province. However, the case involved by Fang Wenshan's good friend is very likely to be related to the corruption of the army's materials. Although they were both under the rule of King Yan, the military administration and the civil administration were two systems, and it was impossible for the people in the political envoys to intervene in the cases in the army. Of course, if King Yan relied on Xie Pu's ability, he might also ask him for some opinions and suggestions, and the so-called "Xie Pu's slander to King Yan" in Cao Shuqing's mouth may come from this. But Xie Pu at most provided a little advice to King Yan, and it was impossible for him to formally intervene in the investigation and trial of the case.

As the shopkeeper of Xie Pu's business, the shopkeeper Jin is at the end of the year, and it is too late to be busy with his own work, where is the leisure to inquire about irrelevant news?

He would have heard that two businesses that produced quilts had been involved in the case, or had he heard about it from the business scene.

The Xie family used to have several large weaving workshops, but they always sold cloth to dignitaries and ordinary people, and never did the clothing business in the army - without him, the quality of the cloth was too good, and it was unprofitable and wasteful to sell it to the army. In addition, the Xie family has no way in this regard, and has been in-laws with the Cao family for more than ten years, and they have no intention of using the Cao family's influence in the army in this regard, so they have never sold things to the army in batches, and there is only one business house that does grain business.

However, because they had been involved in the cloth business, the two businesses that did the quilt business with the army were barely half of the Xie family's peers. The two of them were involved in a big case, and after the news spread, there was a lot of discussion among their peers. The shopkeeper had heard of some of them, and once thought it was just a rumor, after all, those two businesses have a long history and have always had a good reputation, so there is no reason for such a moth.

Later, he heard some inside information from others, it is said that among the two businesses, one of the old masters died, and the young son inherited the family business, and he entered the shopping mall for the first time. The other family was fascinated by beauty, and left the stable and capable eldest son aside, and instead handed over the military business to the brother of the new concubine, and the whole family was cheated by the cheap brother-in-law......

These two firms, the one in front still has some old friendships, and they can't bear to see their old friends and heirs cut off, and the one behind them still has innocent wives and sons-in-law, and their in-laws are trying to save people. Someone from both families inquired about Xie Pu, who was valued by King Yan, and came to the door with a heavy gift to ask for help. Xie Pu politely refused, but also told them that His Royal Highness King Yan was wise and wise, fair, and he would not spare the guilty, but he would not be angry with the innocent, let them go back with peace of mind and wait for the news, and if they knew anything, they would honestly explain it, and the government would give them a fair result.

These words did not make the people of the two families completely settle down, after all, an heir and a head of the family have an unshirkable responsibility for the case. Even if there are family members who escape, after this catastrophe, it is impossible to live back to the rich and comfortable life that they used to have, and it is very likely that they will have to leave a prosperous place like Beiping City, how can it not make people sad and worried?

The resulting internal turmoil between the two families and various bloody conflicts have become a hot topic in Beiping City last winter. Shopkeeper Jin, Ye Jinrong and others all left Beiping amid heated discussions, and they were still very curious about what the outcome of this case would be, and what would happen to the owners of the two firms? When I drink with my old friends during the Chinese New Year, I can't help but take it out to make a topic.

That's all the shopkeeper Mao knows, at most he deduces a little bit of the case from the words of the golden shopkeeper, it seems that the quality of the new winter clothes made in the northern army last winter last winter is very bad, the cotton is insufficient, and many are old cotton, in a very accidental situation, it was discovered by the people of the Yan Wangfu and reported to the Yan King. However, the procurement of materials in the army seems to be related to the relatives of the previous generation of King Yan, so King Yan investigated very carefully, until he had enough evidence before he made a difficulty, and then unexpectedly found that the case was widely implicated, and there were many people in the army involved in the case, I am afraid that even the middle and high-level military attaches in several other border towns in the north were involved. Now he can only catch a few chickens and monkeys with a less deep background, and if he wants to really find out the case, he has to wait!

When Xie Mulin heard this, he couldn't help but be a little confused: "What do you mean?" How could the relatives of the previous generation of King Yan be involved in the case? The last generation of Yan Wang was not ...... Isn't it the first emperor? ”

Shopkeeper Mao told Xie Mulin.

The previous Yan King was not the first emperor, but the biological father of the first emperor. Because the sons of Emperor Chengde died because of the succession, there was no heir to inherit the throne, so he had to inherit an heir from his compatriots and brothers to inherit the unification. But Emperor Chengde's sibling brother had already been passed to the Yan Palace, and he was already the King of Yan at that time, with only one son under his knees, and he had already married a wife and had children, so if he wanted to succeed him as the emperor's heir, he could only choose to be a concubine, so that he could inherit the royal family and the Yanwang Mansion at the same time. The wife he left behind in the Yan Wangfu is the future Yan princess, and the eldest son he gave birth to will continue to be the son of Yan Wang. The crown princess he married after entering the royal family is the future queen of the main palace.

The first emperor did not forget his feelings for the original partner and the eldest son, but he could not give them the treatment of the queen and the prince, and because he entered the royal family, he had to leave the heir to guard Beiping, so he lived separately from the original partner and the eldest son. His original husband lived a widowhood, and after a long time, he became resentful. In the last years of the first emperor, when the sons seized the heir, the prince of Yan Wang, as his de facto eldest son, also participated, and in the end he had to die a good death, and even his bloodline was cut off. However, he has a sibling sister and a daughter left behind, and was raised by the original princess of the first emperor. On the one hand, King Yan is indeed the bloodline of the first emperor, on the other hand, today's royal family is also suspected of exterminating the heirs of Yan Wangfu and seizing the right of inheritance.

Therefore, King Yan and his wife have always treated these family members left by the previous generation of King Yan as lenient as possible, and have consciously accepted some of these children to participate in the affairs of Beiping, so that they will be less resentful. However, the current King Yan has no heir, and there is only one daughter under his knees, for the position of this heir, the descendants of the previous generation of Queen Yan are not without ideas, they will also find ways to make money, win over officials, and compete for power in the future.
