Chapter 304: Conviction
This is the world of their Han family that no one is allowed to peep, this world can only be surnamed Han, and others can't even dream of it.
The emperor flipped through the information brought by the regent, and it was written in black and white how the military department secretary colluded with barbarian people to do evil in the frontier, and even bought and sold official positions, embezzled and accepted bribes.
It has been exposed now, and if it is hidden for a few more years, the prime minister will hand over the military talisman, and maybe it will finally fall into the hands of the military department.
Seeing that the emperor angrily threw all the papers in his hand out, any of these items were enough to convict, not to mention that all the families were together, it was simply a capital crime.
"After passing the decree, the military department Shangshu tried to rebel, dismissed him from his post and sent him to Lingnan, the adult men in the family all entered the official kiln, and the adult women all entered the palace as slaves, if there is any disobedience to the local law." The angry emperor didn't care about the seriousness anymore.
Because what the military department Shangshu did was already very serious, he did it this time without consulting the regent, but it was obvious that the regent was very satisfied with the emperor's intentions, and besides, he was the emperor naturally had the right to decide anything.
The prime minister is a benevolent person, and he still wants to intercede, but when he thinks of the things he did in the house yesterday, he doesn't plead, his wife and children almost died under the sword of the military department, this person really deserves to die, and it is not a pity to die.
After discussing the matter of the military department's book, the emperor casually found a reason and went back to the dormitory, and it was not interesting for the regent and the prime minister to stay here, so they naturally went back.
No, as soon as the two walked out of the palace gate, the regent said: "I heard that the prime minister has found his long-lost children, which is really gratifying, I don't know if the daughter can have a marriage match, and the dog has reached the age when it is time to get married, I don't know if you and I have the fate to be a family." The regent didn't beat around the bush, and spoke directly to him.
Wei Mingqing knew what the regent was thinking, and he had long heard that the son of the regent family was a scholar and had no martial arts at all, if he waited until he was a hundred years later, wouldn't the regent palace be at the mercy of others, if he could marry the prime minister's mansion, it must be a strong alliance, plus there was a man in the prime minister's mansion, so he naturally protected his sister, it seems that the regent is really smart.
I'm going to hit him on the head.
"I have to ask the little girl about this matter, you also know that the little girl has not been around all these years, these important things are still decided by the little girl's own family, this time I will go back and ask, if the little girl agrees, there is no opinion." So saying, the two men got into their respective carriages.
How could the regent not know what Wei Mingqing was thinking, it was just a disguised refusal, since he had to ask the regent to wait, a dignified prime minister is not a person who can talk.
If you can end up with the prime minister, the in-laws will be even more afraid of the two families in the future.
After getting into the carriage, Wei Mingqing became indifferent, if he wants to marry the daughter of his family, then see if the prince regent has this ability, his daughter can actually marry home so easily.
Besides, whether Jiang Cheng'er will agree to it is still one thing, his daughter is not an ordinary person, how could she agree because she is the prince of the regent.
But in the future, the prime minister will be slapped in the face, and what Jiang Cheng'er wants to marry is the prince regent.
"Sir, I'm back."
The butler shouted from afar.
At that time, the front hall was empty, and the subordinates were busy in the courtyard behind, and today Mrs. needs some subordinates to take a bath, and the young lady wants to move into the new courtyard, and naturally needs to be served, although the son's side is fine, but the master still can't be negligent, naturally they have to wait, plus there are some people who send Jiang Cheng'er and Jiang Qinghuan to find Xiaohua, and the front hall is very quiet at this time.
Wei Mingqing, who had just returned to the house, was not used to such silence.
"Where have all the people gone?" Wei Mingqing asked, and the housekeeper beside him said.
"In Madame's house and Miss's yard, the people next to me went out to find Miss's friend, the girl came with Miss, but who knew that it was gone yesterday, Madame and Miss asked people to go to the inn outside to find it, and they have been out for a few hours and haven't returned." The butler said.
So that's the case, Jiang Cheng'er also brought her friends to the capital, why didn't she come back together yesterday, and stayed in the Regent's Mansion to guess that she was invited to the inn.
Just as Wei Mingqing sent a conjecture, the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion found Xiaohua and Lin Zixuan in the best inn in the capital, Xiaohua was really shocked to see so many people coming to look for her, she didn't do anything hurtful to the heavens and reason, let alone kill people and set fires, what did the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion do when they came to look for her?
Could it be that Sister Jiang Cheng'er has an accident, thinking about it, Sister Jiang Cheng'er didn't come out after she went to the Prime Minister's Mansion yesterday, could it be that Sister Jiang Cheng'er had an accident, Xiaohua was originally a timid person, when she thought that Sister Jiang Cheng'er had an accident, she was naturally not afraid, Xiaohua gritted her teeth and said: "But Sister Jiang Cheng'er asked you to come to me." ”
Sister Jiang Cheng'er? They didn't know what the name of the young lady was, but the surname Jiang was always right, presumably following the lady's surname, the maid led by the lady said: "Girl, don't care who sent us, let alone what the matter is, in short, you just follow us, everything you want to know is in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you will naturally know, this son should not follow." Lin Zixuan, who was behind the maid, said.
Lin Zixuan had no choice but to stay in the inn.
It is not far from the inn to the Prime Minister's Mansion, it will not be less than an hour of incense, and when it arrives at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xiaohua looked at the golden Prime Minister's Mansion and suddenly didn't dare to go inside, and I don't know what happened to Sister Jiang Cheng'er, and she even asked her to come over piece by piece, could it be that the Prime Minister's wife's condition is getting worse and worse? Will Qinglin and Sister Jiang Cheng'er be in danger?
Thinking of this, Xiaohua hurriedly entered, but when she entered the Prime Minister's Mansion, she didn't see anyone, and there was no one in the huge Prime Minister's Mansion.
"This is the little flower girl, Miss is waiting for you in the room, I'll take you, you follow me." When the housekeeper saw the girl coming, it must have been Xiaohua, and Xiaohua naturally brought it into the yard of the young lady as soon as she came, so as not to worry about the young lady.
Follow the housekeeper forward, walk through the back garden, cross the two corridors and finally walk to the backyard, the Prime Minister's Mansion is even more than the palace, Xiaohua thought, if she is alone, it is estimated that she will be lost in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Walked to the gate of the bamboo garden, the housekeeper stopped, this is the young lady's yard housekeeper still can not enter and exit at will, this is not to the door there will be a yard maid out to answer, see the housekeeper maid slightly saluted, the young lady told if there is a girl is the young lady's honored guest.
The people who can be in the Prime Minister's Mansion are all smart and human-like people, and naturally they know how to please the master, so the maid bowed slightly and said: "The girl came in with me, and the young lady has been waiting inside for a long time." ”
As the name suggests, it is precisely because the courtyard is full of bamboo and plum blossoms that the name of the bamboo garden is gone.
Miss has been waiting for a long time? Could it be that the person looking for her this time is not Sister Jiang Cheng'er, but the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but Xiaohua doesn't know the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion at all, how can she find her so well?
Xiaohua followed the maid in confusion and walked to the door of the young lady's house, the door of the young lady's room is eight doors, you can imagine how big it is, and when she walked to the door, the maid knocked on the door, Jiang Cheng'er in the house said enter, the maid opened the door and let Xiaohua in, and she still went to work.
Xiaohua entered the door and didn't see anyone in the house. I didn't see the bed, it was a front hall for receiving guests, and there was fruit and some food on the table, thinking that breakfast should have just run out.
Xiaohua looked around and saw only one door on the left, thinking that this door was probably the door of the inner room.
Thinking about it, Xiaohua went in.
I only saw a woman dressed in pink sitting on a chair at the back door in the house, the chair was covered with blankets but it was warm, looking at the woman's back and feeling very familiar, but Xiaohua didn't know the daughters of these rich and noble families, presumably because Sister Jiang Cheng'er was about the same height that Xiaohua felt familiar.
"Miss, are you looking for me?"
Xiaohua said.
Hearing Xiaohua's voice, Jiang Cheng'er hurriedly got up from the chair, Xiaohua came just in time, Jiang Qinghuan asked the small kitchen to make some food, and it was estimated that it would be good at this time.
"I'm Sister Jiang Cheng'er." Jiang Cheng'er turned around and said to Xiaohua.
Xiaohua looked at Jiang Cheng'er in front of her, and really couldn't believe it, the young lady in their mouth turned out to be Jiang Cheng'er, when did Sister Jiang Cheng'er become the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion?
"Sister Jiang Cheng'er, are you the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion? That Qinglin is the young master of the Prime Minister's Mansion, what the hell is going on. Xiaohua asked suspiciously, she really didn't understand why Sister Jiang Cheng'er was the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion in one day? What's going on here?
Seeing Xiaohua's puzzled look, Jiang Cheng'er said, "This matter is a long story, I will explain it to you in the future." ”
Saying that, Jiang Cheng'er took Xiaohua's hand and walked out, just as the pastries in the small kitchen had been prepared and placed on the table, Jiang Cheng'er took the plate to Xiaohua and said, "I remember that you also like these, so don't be polite here." ”
Seeing that Xiaohua was so restrained, Jiang Cheng'er said.
Xiaohua hummed and began to eat.
Qinglin in the courtyard here heard that Xiaohua and the two of them hurried over, Jiang Cheng'er and Xiaohua were still chatting at the moment, and when they heard the maid outside say that Qinglin was coming, Xiaohua happily put down the pastries in her hand and hurriedly sorted out the clothes on her body.
Jiang Cheng'er smiled when she saw this, sure enough, Xiaohua still cared about Qinglin, just look at Xiaohua's nervous appearance.
It's just that Qinglin is here, why are you still so excited.
