Chapter 243: Why Zhangning?

Although Old Madam Xie didn't know why Emperor Ming Xuan asked her if she had any contact with Zhang Ning, she didn't hide it.

She was born in Shuizhai, and her background is different from others, and her connection with those old guys in Zhangning has never been broken.

What's more, Weiwu is still in her house, and her father's affairs can't be hidden.

Whoever checks these things is accurate.

Old Madam Xie was not stupid, even if she noticed that Emperor Ming Xuan's tone was a little wrong, she would not try to deceive him on such an obvious matter.

Emperor Ming Xuan saw that Old Madam Xie answered calmly, and Xie Yuan next to him was just full of doubts, and there was no panic on his face when he was pierced, he knew that the affairs of the Bo family might not have anything to do with the Xie family.

Xie Yuan frowned and said, "Your Majesty, but what's wrong with Zhangning?" ”

Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty said: "Do you know the matter of the Bo family in the Xuanzheng Palace a few days ago? ”

Xie Yuan nodded.

Although he did not enter the palace that day, but Bo Chong hit the steps of the Xuanzheng Palace and died, and Emperor Xuan of the Later Ming Dynasty was forced by the ministers to put the second prince in prison, and ordered someone to strictly interrogate the Bo family.

What's more, in the past two days, almost all the people of the Bo family have been arrested, and even the Bo clan has been surrounded by officers and soldiers.

This matter is known all over the capital, and it would be strange for Xie Yuan to say that he didn't know.

Emperor Xuan of Ming said in a deep voice:

"The Bo family has been colluding with others over the years to amass money, and Bo Chong has been transporting silver taels to Zhangning."

"In the past two years, Bo Chong has taken advantage of the convenience of the military department's book, and sent a large number of weapons from the military department to Zhangning, and even the reason why they went to the household department two years ago to raise the disaster money sent to Jingnan for disaster relief was also because he embezzled the things of the military department and could not make up for it, so he took the risk."

"Why do you think the Bo family did this?"

Xie Yuan was shocked when he heard this, and subconsciously said, "Are they stationing soldiers? ”

Old Madam Xie was also surprised, she thought that the Bo family was just greedy for money, but she didn't expect them to dare to send troops, but why did they choose Zhangning?

Emperor Xuan of Ming saw Old Madam Xie's expression and said, "What did Old Madam think?" ”

Old Madam Xie shook her head: "I'm just thinking, if the Bo family really wants to garrison troops, why would they choose Zhangning." ”

"The emperor has never been to that place, I'm afraid I don't know, Zhangning is remote and near the sea, and there are almost no mountains in the whole Zhangning. It was a flat river, and it was not suitable for military training at all, nor for Tibetans.

"The reason why our water village was able to develop to such a large scale back then was also because it took advantage of the time and place, and the imperial court did not control it at that time, but now Zhangning has set up a state capital yamen."

"If the Bo family really stationed troops over there, it would definitely be impossible not to alarm the government, unless it ......"

Old Madam Xie paused.

Emperor Ming Xuan's face was gloomy: "Unless the people from the yamen of the state capital over there have already taken refuge in the Bo family." ”

Old Madam Xie felt the chill on Emperor Ming Xuan's body and didn't speak.

Emperor Ming Xuan was calm for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Old lady, step back first, I have something to discuss with Xie Hou." ”

Old Madam Xie hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have something to ask for. ”

Emperor Ming Xuan looked at her.

Old Madam Xie lowered her eyes and said respectfully: "The emperor is merciful, and my granddaughter Su Ruan can be protected by the emperor." ”

"I know that the emperor kept her in the palace to protect her, the matter of the Bo family has not yet been resolved, and the emperor is worried that they will jump off the wall and hurt Ruan Ruan Zhouquan, but after all, she is the daughter of a foreign minister, and it is really not suitable to stay in the harem, otherwise it will inevitably cause gossip."

"I don't know if the emperor can allow the old woman to take her back to the house to recuperate?"

"My Xie family can guarantee that they will definitely protect Su Ruan and be thoughtful, and they will never let people hurt the descendants of loyal ministers and good generals."

Emperor Ming Xuan's brows furrowed.

He didn't want to let Su Ruan out of the palace.

It's not that he has any thoughts about the little girl, it's just that now that the matter in Jingnan has come out, Su Xuanmin's grievances can't be suppressed, and Su Ruan is the most critical person among them.

Before the matter is cleared, Su Ruan can't have an accident, but he can't make other troubles.

It is safest to keep people in the palace.

But what Mrs. Xie said was reasonable, and she set him up.

If he does not agree, on what grounds?

Emperor Ming Xuan pursed his lips and thought for a while, before he said: "Okay, if the imperial doctor says that she can move later, Old Madam Xie will take her back, there is only one point, I don't want anything to happen to Su Ruan." ”

Old Madam Xie understood what Emperor Ming Xuan meant, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, rest assured. ”

……

After Mrs. Xie came out of the palace, she breathed a sigh of relief, she thought that Emperor Xuan of Ming would hold Su Ruan and not let go, and maybe King Anyang would come forward afterwards to bring Su Ruan back to the mansion.

I didn't expect Emperor Xuan of the Ming Dynasty to accept it so easily, and he didn't pursue Chen's affairs.

Old Madam Xie squinted slightly, afraid that the matter of the Bo family's troops in Zhangning had divided Emperor Mingxuan's thoughts, but it was a little strange, if Zhangning really had such a big change, why didn't any of her old guys mention it to her?

Although the first emperor recruited the people in the water village, it was impossible for the water bandits in the village to disperse.

After Mrs. Xie entered Beijing, there were still people who returned to their old jobs, but because they had entered a good book, they changed their words.

Those people have been entrenched in Zhangning for many years, and if the Bo family really stationed troops in Zhangning, the resonance will definitely be not small.

But why didn't anyone tell her about it?

Old Madam Xie had doubts in her heart, and she faintly felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't remember it for a while.

"Old lady, the emperor ordered the servant to take the old lady to see Miss Su." A little eunuch stepped forward and said.

Old Madam Xie restrained the suspicion in her heart, and a gentle smile appeared on her face: "I don't know where my granddaughter is now?" ”

"Back to the old lady, the emperor placed Miss Su in Yongning Palace."

Yongning Palace?

Isn't that the palace of the Imperial Palace?

Old Madam Xie was slightly shocked in her heart, and her face also showed a little consternation.

The little eunuch seemed to know that Old Madam Xie was surprised, and explained beside him:

"Miss Su was not lightly injured before, and she has been unconscious with a high fever, the emperor is afraid that no one will take care of her, and he is worried that his subordinates will be negligent, so he sent Miss Su to the queen's palace."

"The queen is the lord of the six palaces, and with her protection, she can naturally keep Miss Su worry-free."

Old Madam Xie's eyes moved slightly, and she vaguely guessed that Emperor Xuan of Ming sent Su Ruan to the empress, probably to prevent Concubine Yu and Empress Dowager Qian from attacking Su Ruan.

Su Ruan brought down the Bo family and let the second prince go to prison, and Concubine Yu was the biological mother of the second prince, and the Empress Dowager Qian loved him very much, and the two were afraid that they hated Su Ruan.
