The speed of the prefect's work was very fast, and there was Bai Ling who secretly contributed to the troubles, and the father and son were arrested and put in prison that afternoon.

The same acquaintance, who didn't take it seriously, panicked, and the women in the backyard remembered to move, but found that the courtyard had been surrounded by people from the prefect.

Even if someone tried to leave the mansion, and there were also people from Shangguan Yu who followed, they couldn't pass on the news at all.

When the people saw that the prefect was really moving, and some people instigated it, for three days in a row, some people sued the same acquaintance, or the family members of the same acquaintance, etc., and there were no less than 100 copies of the complaint.

The prefect is not qualified to convict the same acquaintance, but he can first detain the person, convict the others, and then write an excerpt to go to Beijing to wait for the holy judgment.

The prefect intended to ease the previous matter, so he first sent someone to send Bai Ling some things copied from the Tongzhi family, and then went through the back door to let Bai Ling buy two shops and a Zhuangzi at a low price, so he sent someone to send a letter to Bai Ling.

asked someone to reward the official who came to report the news, and Bai Ling said to Bai Wei:

"This matter has come to an end for the time being, and I know that this time it is difficult to escape, and no one in this Zidong City dares to provoke the Bai family again. You don't have to scruple about what you want to do, I know you like to make money, as long as it's not black-hearted money, the second sister supports you, if the silver is not enough, I can lend it to you first, and when I make it, I will pay it back with interest. ”

Bai Ling deliberately said this because he was afraid that Bai Wei would be embarrassed to open his mouth.

The sisters can stand on their own, this is what Bai Ling wants to see the most.

"Then the second sister will lend me some silver, 20,000 taels is enough." Bai Wei thought about it for a while, but finally opened her mouth.

In fact, the silver in Bai Wei's hand is enough to make capital, but she can have more funds to move, and she can save her hands and feet when doing things.

"Cheng, I'll give it to you in the evening." Bai Ling nodded, "I'm going home tomorrow, let's go to the academy to see Ziyang first, do you want to go together?" ”

"Still no, every time I go to the academy, I don't feel comfortable, let's go and see what the family is doing." Bai Wei shook her head, like a rattle.

Bai Ling was not reluctant, so he took Bai Shao and two food boxes to the academy.

Bai Wei sat in a daze on the chair for a long time, let out a long sigh, and didn't dare to ask what she wanted to ask.

In this life, there is no way to stand by his side, after all, he has never had himself in his eyes.

Bai Ling didn't know what Bai Wei was thinking, and after going to the academy, he gave food boxes to his two younger brothers, and after saying goodbye, he didn't disturb their homework and went to see Ziyang, who was still recuperating.

In the past few days, Bai Ling has come to give Ziyang acupuncture, and will also bring him some nutritious sick meals.

"There's Lord Lao." When Ziyang saw Bai Ling, he hurriedly got up and bowed deeply, "Xiaosheng feels that it is much better, and he will be able to attend classes normally tomorrow, and he will not dare to have another county lord Lao." ”

"Even if you don't say it, today is also the last acupuncture. Your injury is recovering well, but you still need to take a few more days of medicine to consolidate it, and you should pay attention to the combination of work and rest recently. If you feel unwell, ask Xiaoshan to bring me a message, and I will come back to you for a review. ”

After Bai Ling cleaned his hands, he applied needles to Ziyang.

Now that Ziyang can walk, it is more convenient to sit and administer needles.

Hearing Bai Ling's words, Ziyang felt a sense of loss in his heart, but for some reason, his lowered eyes covered his emotions, but no one noticed it.

After pulling out the silver needle, Bai Ling checked Ziyang's pulse again, left a bottle of pills and said, "Remember, don't use your brain too much within a month, otherwise it will cause headaches." This bottle of pills can give you relief from your symptoms, but you can't rely on pills, and taking too much will have side effects. ”

"Thank you, county lord, Ziyang has written it down." Ziyang took the medicine bottle with both hands to show respect, and he was a little uncomfortable.

Ziyang, who was hooked by the fragrance of the food box, had a desire to eat, and he was embarrassed and hated to find a crack to get into.

Bai Ling remembered the scene he had in the capital, so he offered to leave.

Walking to the bottom of the corridor, Bai Ling asked in a low voice, "How is the investigation?" ”

"Ziyang's family was originally a well-off family, and there were servants waiting for him since he was a child. But because of his sister's beauty, he was favored by the landlord, and the family abandoned their family business and fled to Zidong City, and they were down. However, his sister is married to a simple person, and now she has both children and daughters, and she will often sponsor this younger brother who is studying, and the family's reputation is good. Bai Shao replied.

"That being the case, it would be appropriate for Xiaoshan and Xusheng to want to be friendly with him." Bai Ling nodded, "You don't have to stare at it anymore in the future, just let it be." ”

"Yes." Bai Shao responded, and after a long time of struggle, she asked, "When the girl goes back this time, do you want to leave the slave and maid?" ”

Listening to Bai Shao's aggrieved voice, Bai Ling smiled and said, "I let you stay here because I trust you, so I dare to let you help me keep an eye on such a big stall, but you are wronged." ”

"The slave just wants to follow the girl, and has no other meaning." Bai Shao hurriedly explained.

"Don't worry, I'm reluctant to leave you behind. But you also have to be mentally prepared, I may not stay in one place for long, as my confidant, you have to do something for me, and there will not be many opportunities to follow me in the future. ”

Bai Ling was also very helpless, but who made Bai Shao have a talent in medical skills.

"The girl doesn't dislike me and get in the way, the slave and maid are to share the worries of the master, the girl has something to order, and the slave and maid will try her best to do it well." Bai Shao put her mind at ease and was busy expressing her loyalty.

This time when I go home, I may not come back a year ago, Bai Ling really has a lot of things to explain, and the master and servant will not be bored talking all the way.

Capital.

The emperor was silent for several days because of the twists and turns of the King of Han, and summoned his confidants and ministers in batches, but did not announce that Shangguan Yu had entered the palace.

Knowing the emperor's dynamics, Shangguan Yu was also happy to spend a few days free, just accompanied Princess Yayang to worship Concubine Ming, and stayed in Huangjue Temple for a few days.

In addition to missing Bai Ling, Shangguan Yu lived a leisurely life.

Although Huangjue Temple is a royal temple, the monks also have to be cultivated, and Princess Yayang is not good to stay for a long time, Shangguan Yu sent her to the royal courtyard and returned to Beijing.

After all, they are cousins, even if they are brothers and sisters at this age, they should avoid suspicion.

As soon as Shangguan Yu returned to Beijing, before he could say a few words to Princess Han, the emperor sent a decree to let Shangguan Yu enter the palace.

After saluting the emperor, Shangguan Yu kept silent, and although the emperor was dissatisfied, he took the initiative to ask:

"Ziyuan, your father's recital, I have already discussed it with the loyal ministers of the court. The solution is feasible, but last year there was a flood in the south, and there has been no harvest for more than a year. The north can grow two crops in the north, but the scope is too narrow, and there are so many troops to be raised, and the treasury is not abundant! ”

"That's what the emperor said." Shangguan Yu responded, and did not take the initiative to mention that he wanted to worry about the king.

The emperor choked, and his heart was even more unhappy, but for the sake of the stability of the country, he had to ask again:

"Zixiao City is the fiefdom of the Han Palace, and it has been growing two seasons of grain for two consecutive years, which is a lot more than in previous years, and it should be no problem to lend grain to small countries and tribes in the north in batches, right?"

Since Zixiao City was divided into the Han Palace's fiefdom, the royal family has not levied grain taxes, knowing that it is tight to support a huge army, and has rarely allocated grain and grass.

Almost by default, the royal family never touches the things of Zixiao City, as long as the Han Wangfu is still loyal to the Eastern Han Dynasty and can stabilize the border passes.

Shangguan Yu was disdainful in his heart, but he said respectfully on his face: "Back to the emperor's words, strictly speaking, Zixiao City only has one year to promote the cultivation of winter wheat in a large area, and it does not cover the entire Zixiao City. Last year, more than 100,000 victims were resettled, which is also a large expense. ”
