Chapter 209: Trouble Happened to the Shao Family
At this time, Kyoto Shaofu.
"Whew-whew-"
The wind howled, the trees swayed in the wind, and the branches whipped in the air like a whip dancing wildly
Suddenly, a flash of lightning pierced the dark night sky, followed by a thunderclap that shook the earth, and in an instant the goose feathers and snow poured down, interweaving the space into a continuous snow, and the past seemed to be hidden in the snow, with few pedestrians.
Snowfall and thunder, rare bad weather, is an ominous omen.
Shao Wanyun was already in a mess in the bedroom, pacing back and forth, her eyes were like a pool of clear water, flashing with a frightened streamer, and when she was looking forward to it, she had lost a lot of her elegant and elegant temperament on weekdays.
When the door was pushed open and the personal maid ran in, Shao Wanyun pinned all her hopes on her, and without waiting for the maid to speak, she first greeted her and asked anxiously, "How is it?" Can you find out where your father is? ”
The maid's face at this moment was even more terrified than Shao Wanyun's, and even her tone trembled: "Miss, the master has been pressed into prison." ”
!!
A few short words, like a shocking thunderbolt, slid through Shao Wanyun's head, and her beautiful face lost all her safety, and turned into horror: "What did you say? Didn't it mean that there were already ministers in the court who went to the imperial study to plead with Your Majesty? ”
The maid shook her head in despair: "The courtiers have indeed entered the palace, but compared to the hundreds of officials who have come up to impeach the master, the ministers who helped the lord intercede can't stop it, eldest lady, I'm afraid it will be this time...... I'm afraid it's ......."
The rest of the reply, the maid did not dare to continue.
Immediately, Shao Wanyun's soul was broken, and she couldn't help but tremble in despair, her eyes were black and she was dizzy and fell, but fortunately, the maid quickly held it up, and said worriedly: "Miss, are you okay?" ”
Shao Wanyun shook her head, sat down on the table next to her hand, her mind was dizzy, and she had no idea.
What happened has to start a few days ago.
On the day Jiang Zuiyao left Shaofu, it was still early, and when Shaojiang was having breakfast, the officers and soldiers of Fengtianfu forcibly rushed into the gate of Shaojiafu and took Shaojiang away.
The reason is that Shaojiang secretly colluded with officials in other cities to evade taxes and evade taxes as much as millions of taels of silver, and the person who reported this incident was the prime minister who was above 10,000 people under one person in the DPRK and China!
If this crime is confirmed, the Shao family will not only raid the house, but Shaojiang will also be sentenced for the crime, then the Shao family will be finished!
Shao Wanyun didn't care about anything else at the moment, she bit her lip tightly, and said worriedly: "What should I do?" What can I do? ”
The maid was anxious and irritable, and said, "Miss, for now, let's think about how to save the master." ”
Shao Wanyun's nose was sore, and she wanted to cry, but she held on.
"What can I do? What should I do? Shao Wanyun was completely panicked.
Shao Wanyun's heart tightened suddenly, she couldn't let this kind of thing happen, her fists tightened, Shao Wanyun ordered: "Prepare the carriage, I want to go to the Regent's Mansion." ”
The maid was momentarily shocked: "Miss, you can't do stupid things at this time!" ”
"Or else? Is there any other way? Shao Wanyun looked at the maid in despair.
The maid said, "Aren't there still Mrs. and Third Young Master?" They'll figure it out. ”
Shao Wanyun was completely anxious: "If there is a way, how can it be delayed until today?" The third brother said that the person who wanted to kill his father was the prime minister, and only the regent of the Manchu Dynasty could compete with the prime minister! ”
The maid's eyes softened, the corners of her lips trembled, and she replied, "The slave and maid will go and ask someone to prepare the car." ”
The maid left, the tears that Shao Wanyun had been holding back fell in an instant, and the Shao family now asked for everyone they could, and now they are rich and powerful but they can't compete with the prime minister who holds great power.
At this time, Shao Ziqing was not there, only the mother who was the housekeeper on weekdays, and Shao Zimo, who had not yet set foot in the court, could not be counted on.
Outside, the snowstorm was falling, and Shao Wanyun couldn't care less than to urge the coachman countless times, even though the carriage was already running fast, but she was still impatient.
When she arrived at the Regent's Mansion, the Regent's only son-in-law, Huo Yuchu chose to see her.
There was a lot of snowfall outside, but it was warm in the hall, and the corners of Shao Wanyun's skirt were wet by the blizzard, leaving a line of water stains from the temple door to him.
When Huo Yu first saw her, there was no emotion on his face, he had already guessed Shao Wanyun's intention, but he still asked knowingly: "It's so late, what's the matter with you coming to see me?" ”
Under the wide sleeves, Shao Wanyun's slender jade fingers had been clenched into a powerful fist, and she glared at Huo Yuchu's cheeks, pleading with countless reluctance, but helplessly: "Please, save my father." ”
Such a reply was not at all expected by Huo Yuchu, he got up from the chair and walked in front of Shao Wanyun, his eyes were a little hot: "How do you know that I can save your father?" ”
Shao Wanyun exhaled coldly: "The only one who can compete with the prime minister in the court is your father's regent." ”
Huo Yuchu's eyes narrowed slightly, but at the age of twenty-three, he was sophisticated and ruthless at the age of not at this age, with a pair of eyes shooting cold stars, two curved eyebrows like paint, a dignified body, and a dignified appearance.
His voice instantly turned cold: "If it weren't for your father's affairs, I'm afraid you wouldn't have paid attention to me in this life, right?" ”
Shao Wanyun sneered: "Don't you like me?" If you can save my father, I will marry you. ”
Huo Yuchu took a step forward, with firmness in his tone: "So, the marriage between you and me is a transaction for you?" ”
Shao Wanyun said expressionlessly: "I'm just an insignificant young lady, what can I do?" ”
Huo Yuchu frowned slightly, and tried his best to explain: "Shao Wanyun, you don't understand the affairs of the court, your father-"
"Don't say any more!" , Shao Wanyun didn't want to hear any words from the regent, so she didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and interrupted with a roar.
Shao Wanyun looked at him with fiery eyes, and said categorically, "You just say that you don't agree, and I don't want to hear the rest." ”
Huo Yuchu was dumbfounded, looked at her with blazing eyes, and said in frustration: "My dignified regent is not really comparable to a play?" ”
Shao Wanyun completely collapsed, and shouted at the top of her voice: "Do you dare to say that you have no selfish intentions in approaching me? ”
"I didn't!" , Huo Yuchu said categorically.
Shao Wanyun didn't believe it: "Heh, really? Didn't the regent always want my father's financial power to help him? ”
Huo Yuchu frowned: "In your eyes, my feelings for you are so unbearable?" Is my sincerity so worthless in your eyes? ”
Shao Wanyun glanced at her coldly: "Really? Hehe, although I didn't like you at the beginning, I believed in your sincerity, but how did you explain everything later? Huo Yuchu, still don't you want to admit it? It doesn't hurt to admit it, I can not care, in order to save my father, I can marry you! ”
