Chapter 127: A Hot Potato
But knowing that there was a problem, but turning a blind eye, Xiao Junyi felt that it was against the righteousness that the master taught him, so if he was sent to the Criminal Department, there was a grandfather in it, he could know some news, and combined with the evidence in the box, he could speculate who was behind the scenes.
"Okay, then the lower official will go and draft the letter now, and send it to Xijing tomorrow." This Zhao Qiusheng is now a hot potato, and Xiao Taishou is a person who is content with the status quo and mud, so he feels that if his superiors can take over, it will be the best for him.
This letter, Xiao Taishou carefully considered and reconsidered, revised and rewrote several times before it was written, not only to explain the matter clearly, but also not to appear that he was too incompetent.
When I finished writing the letter and returned to the backyard, it was already late, and Mrs. Xiao had not slept yet: "Master, you have been busy these days!" ”
Xiao Taishou sighed: "It doesn't matter if you're busy, the most important thing is that the case can be closed and you can give the people an explanation." ”
"The master is really a good official who cares about the people!" Mrs. Xiao said as she helped him take off his official uniform.
Xiao Taishou was very useful to this sentence, and suddenly remembered what he had given to Mrs. Xiao before: "Madam, those women and children, have they all settled down?" ”
"Don't worry, master, they have all settled down, and a few of them have been picked up by their families, and the rest are living in Qiuyuan."
"Autumn Garden?" Xiao Taishou frowned: "Didn't you arrange for you to go to Yu'er's yard?" How did you get to Autumn Garden? ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Xiao remembered that yesterday her daughter cleaned up in her yard and sprinkled it until late: "Sir, you too, know that our Yu'er was pampered and grew up, and settled those people in her yard, not to mention the dirty, and all of them cried and mourned, doesn't this add to the blockage of our daughter?" ”
"So, you're in charge of moving people out of the yard?"
"Yes, the autumn garden is empty anyway, although the environment is the worst in our Taishou Mansion, but it is absolutely okay for them to live."
Xiao Taishou slapped the table: "Confused, confused, madam, I arranged it like this, and there is a reason for my arrangement." ”
Mrs. Xiao was puzzled: "What is the reason for arranging those women and children in Yu'er's yard?" ”
"A colleague with a very good relationship in Xijing, a few days ago he took leave to return to his hometown, passed by Xijing, came to the house to find me, when he entered the house, he happened to see Xiao Shizi, and then, he told me that Xiao Shizi returned to Beijing this year, is to marry a wife and take a concubine, now people are in our house, we can naturally get close to the water and get the moon first."
Mrs. Xiao's eyes turned quickly: "You mean, our family Yu'er?" ”
"Isn't that Yu'er? Yu'er's identity, although it is not enough to be a concubine, but if she is kind and sensible, she will have the opportunity to enter the palace in the future......"
"I see, I see!" Before Xiao Taishou could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Mrs. Xiao: "So, you deliberately settled those people in Yu'er, just so that the prince could see it?" ”
"Isn't it? Now, alas! ”
"It's okay, it's okay, tomorrow morning, I'll take everyone back to Yu'er's yard."
Xiao Taishou nodded: "That's the only way, when you settle down, at that time, I will take Shizi to visit those children, and you let Yu'er behave well." ”
"Good, good, definitely, definitely!"
