Chapter 92 to Settle the Soul
The carriage went out of the city for several miles before it reached a cemetery on the outskirts of the city, and was supported by Suzaku to enter it, and there were two graves, old and new, close together, one large and one small.
Xie Yao tore off the cloth on the bamboo basket with her eyes, and the heavy smell of blood spread around her movements.
"Uncle Sun, you can rest in peace for the time being, Yang Zhao is dead now." Xie Yaoguang stretched his body and said, "I think that people like Yang Zhao can only go to hell after death." As for Yang Minghan, he still has some use, I have to leave him for a while. But don't worry, he'll come down and plead with you soon. ”
The wind came from afar, blowing her sideburns, and the silver swallows shook in her hair, which was pleasant to the ear.
When I came back, the shopkeeper in the building came up to report that Xia Fu was here, and he named her to see her. This time, Bai Lu's steward is waiting over there.
Xie Yaoguang smiled when he heard this, walked up to the third floor, and knocked on the door of Xia Fu's private seat. It was Bai Lu who went out to greet her, and after saluting Xie Yaoguang, the two entered the inner room one after the other.
When she saw that Ye Linchen was also there, she was slightly stunned, and the two of them withdrew their eyes after a slight stagger.
"I heard that Lord Xia is looking for me?" Xie Yao sat down in her skirt, raised her eyebrows and looked at Xia Fu with a smile.
"Exactly, I'm just here to ask about the price of the Moon and the Star Building." Xia Fu saw Xie Yaoguang sit down and said solemnly: "According to this official's understanding, although the price of this Moon Lanxing Building is slightly higher than that of ordinary restaurants, I have never seen such a high time for so long. Please explain. ”
"Lord Xia, what do you want me to say. Raising the price of the moon and the stars is just a livelihood. Besides, the people who come and go in the Moon and Star Tower have always been high-ranking officials and nobles, so these things are nothing to them, right?" Xie Yaoguang glanced at King Ding, who was looking at him, turned his head to look at Xia Fu and said in a warm voice.
"If only it was a little more normal! It's just that if you hug the moon and take the stars in the building, a random refreshment is worth a year's food and clothing for ordinary people's families! Xia Fu couldn't help but get angry when he saw Xie Yaoguang's attitude of treating him gently.
Xie Yaoguang raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Fu and sneered, "Why is it that the household department that I didn't see before cares so much about the livelihood of the people, but now it cares about it?" ”
"How many messes have been left by the previous household book, this official will deal with them one by one, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment!"
Xie Yaoguang was silent, but looking at Xia Fu's gaze, there was a hint of appreciation. Raising his head, brushing the broken hair from the corner of his forehead, he sneered: "I think you should deal with the affairs of the household department first, after all, the previous household book was a lot of money in my place."
As soon as Xie Yaoguang's words came out, Xia Fu fell into silence. How could he not know how much mess Zhang Qin, the previous secretary of the household department, left behind in the household department, and spent a lot of money all over the imperial capital. The garden he built and the money he spent were only embezzled by his position. Zhang Qin relied on the support of the crown prince, although he was not presumptuous in the imperial capital, but he let his subordinates eat the people in other states. But fortunately, Zhang Qin has fallen, and he will naturally handle these things one by one. So that the people of the states can live and work in peace and contentment.
"I know what the girl said. However, after this period of research, I found that your shop has made mistakes in terms of taxation. The tired girl has settled the taxes."
Xia Fu's voice fell.
Xie Yaoguang smiled at the corner of his mouth, and then raised his eyebrows and looked at Xia Fu, "Okay, in a few days, I will send someone to make up for the missed taxes one by one and hand them over to the household department." Leave. ”
"Xia Fu, is this just what you came to this king for?" Ye Linchen couldn't help but feel amused when he looked at Xie Yaoguang's back as he left in a negative mood.
"Naturally, it wasn't the fate I talked to His Highness that day. Recently, I heard that the owner behind this restaurant will come to the building, so I invited His Royal Highness to come along! Xia Fu looked at Ye Linchen with a smile and said in a deep voice: "Although the food here is expensive, the taste is indeed excellent. Your Highness, you have a taste. ”
After half a pillar of incense, the two of them left the Moon and Star Tower. Ye Linchen waited for Xia Fu to leave before turning back to the backyard of the Moon Lanxing Tower, and happened to see Xie Yaoguang sitting on the edge of the water pavilion talking alone. Strode in.
"Your Highness, I see that you and Xia Fu are talking quite speculatively. Well, you two are quite similar in temperament. Xie Yaoguang glanced at Ye Linchen and said with a low smile.
"It's only Xia Fu who believes that you have a problem with taxes"
"Isn't that a good person? If he is not given a chance, how can he make meritorious contributions. Actually, I'm just talking about it here. There are more exciting things waiting for Xia Fu," Xie Yaoguang stood up, poured a cup of tea for Ye Linchen, and handed it to him.
Ye Linchen took the tea cup from Xie Yaoguang's hand, looked at the foam on the tea and said in a low voice: "Xia Fu is indeed not lacking in ability, what he lacks is just an opportunity. It's a pity that such a person is really not important under Zhang Qin, if he can be earlier. ”
"Isn't it just like you, Your Highness? There must be someone who has the discernment to keep the pearl from dust."
Xie Yaoguang said exactly the same thing as King Shou. However, it sounded more ears to Ye Linchen than to hear such words from King Shou's mouth. Recalling King Shou's appearance in front of Emperor Li today and his eagerness for himself afterwards, Ye Linchen couldn't help but feel disgusted. If he wants to be like King Shou, he really can't learn, and he doesn't want to learn.
"Your Highness, no matter what happens to others. You don't have to flatter Your Majesty like they do. You just do what you have to do. ”
"I know" Ye Linchen put down the teacup and saw the guqin placed by the window: "Miss Xie, do you also know how to play the piano?"
"Let's get a little bit of it, Yaoguang will play a song for His Highness today. What would Your Highness want to hear? Xie Yaoguang looked at Ye Linchen with a gentle expression.
"Mountain Ghost Bar"
When he heard this name, Xie Yaoguang's expression froze for a moment and then he smiled, lowering his eyes to hide the emotions surging in his eyes. Slender fingers brushed over the strings, and a song of mountain ghosts flowed down to its fingertips. Ye Linchen looked at Xie Yaoguang blankly, as if he wanted to see other shadows from her. Xie Yaoguang sang softly in a low voice: "The sun is dark, and the east wind is fluttering with divine rain." Stay spiritually and forget to return, and the years are not too old? Picking three shows in the mountains, stone Lei Lei and Ge vines. The resentful son is sad and forgets to return, and I can't be idle. ”
At the end of the song, Ye Linchen glanced at Xie Yaoguang and said, "Jiang Yan offended you so much that day, I have already ordered him to be punished." I hope you don't take this matter to heart. ”
Xie Yaoguang listened to Ye Linchen's sudden words, and was a little stunned. However, he still maintained a gentle smile on his face: "I naturally know that he didn't mean to." However, the path chosen by His Highness will never allow such a thing to happen, and I hope His Highness understands. ”
"This king understands that this king still has military affairs in his body. Don't bother Miss Xie, farewell! ”
Looking at Ye Linchen's departing back, Xie Yaoguang lowered his eyes and sighed deeply. Brother Linchen. Chengjun said, I will do my best to seek justice for you, for the Gu family, for all those who have slept with grievances, and assist you to rule the world.
