Chapter 34 Criticism, Marrying a Wife and Taking a Concubine
So many ingredients, Yu'er this is when she feeds the pigs!
"Chengbei Niangniang Temple? Miss, aren't we going shopping? Yu'er wondered.
"That's it, miss, have you changed your attention?" Luer chimed in, wishing she could go back as soon as possible.
The two girls, one on the left and one on the right, sat Yan Qianqing in the middle.
"When you came from the north of the city yesterday, I wonder if you found a very serious phenomenon?" Hiko's expression became solemn.
"What kind of phenomenon? Miss. Lu'er asked more bluntly and quickly without thinking.
After a while, Yu'er blurted out: "There are a lot of Hanako!" ”
Beggars?
Yan Qianqing watched Yu'er's gaze become sharper, she thought that Yu'er, who was a maidservant, would have some sympathy.
Feeling Yan Qianqing's sharp gaze, Yu'er hurriedly changed her words: "Many homeless people in tattered clothes. ”
"It's a flood-stricken displaced." Hikosha said indifferently.
Lu'er has been living by Yan Qianqing's side since she was a child, and she grew up carefree, so she understands the suffering of the people.
"Miss is so kind!" She muttered, in fact, she had already complained about it in her heart.
Miss, what kind of compassion do you have? It's not Guanyin alive! On this hot day, this kind of thing has to be done by you personally? Or something to take us to eat something delicious! Liars, super big duans!
"What do you need from a slave?" Yu'er suppressed her shame and took the initiative to ask Yan Qianqing.
"There will be more and more victims in the next few days, and it is not a way to go on like this, and the imperial court needs to open a warehouse to release grain."
"Oh! Is that to write to the General's Palace? ”
Yan Qianqing frowned and said, "This is not something that the General's Mansion can manage, but it can only be done for now." In a while, you should quickly go to the yamen of the general government and ask them to open a warehouse and release grain to help the victims. ”
"Yu'er understands!"
……
Yan Qianqing gave all the ingredients brought in the carriage to the people who rescued the disaster in Niangniang Temple, and when he crossed the threshold, he saw some officials wantonly arresting people.
"What's going on?"
"Most of the displaced people come from flood-prone areas in the south, and a sudden move to the north will inevitably cause problems of water and soil adaptation. Yuncheng was relatively close to the capital, and the people of the Yamen were worried that they would continue to go north to disturb the holy car, so they controlled them near the Niangniang Temple on the grounds that they were infected with diseases, and sent officers and soldiers to strictly control them. The person who manages the Niangniang temple said.
"If you don't open a warehouse, just release grain to help the people, and get it out like that!" The life of this ancient emperor Lao'er is Jin Guihe.
An old woman with crutches and impaired mobility walked in front of her, "Everything is to hide people's eyes and ears, the court is not without allocating food for disaster relief, the key is to make a fuss!" ”
Yan Qianqing fell silent, and then he realized that things were not so simple.
"The imperial court allocated 200,000 taels of gold from the disaster area, which was robbed by bandits overnight, and the disaster grain was all turned into bags of stones overnight...... The porridge and rice distributed by Niangniang Temple all come from the embroidery workshop. ”
"So much gold is gone, all the grain has turned to stone, and the people in the government eat soft rice? Such a serious matter was not reported to the court! Hikochi was indignant.
"You said that it is the embroidery workshop that is now relieving the victims, so could it be that the people of the embroidery workshop did it?"
"The embroidery workshop is not as noble as the old man said, and the reason why they will release grain to help the victims is because of the agreement signed with the government. The embroidery workshop assisted the government in recovering 200,000 taels of gold, and the government had to pay a quarter of the 200,000 taels of gold to the embroidery workshop as compensation. ”
"Robbery while it's hot doesn't bring like this! Embroidery workshop ......" Yan Qianqing suddenly thought of a sentence, called no business and no treachery.
Xuanwangfu.
King Xuan is not like a dark robe in the past, and the moon-white thin clothes wrapped around him give people a sense of unearthly freshness.
The person sitting opposite was King Xuan's doorman, and Yan Qianqing came to King Xuan's mansion that day, dressed in white, and was graceful.
The wisps of fragrance rising from the incense burner disperse with the wind; Birds whispering round on the eaves; Among the verdant green leaves, the pomegranate emotionally stirred the fiery flower skirt...... And they're playing a game of Go.
"Your Highness is always frowning, what's the trouble?" The boy reached out and dropped a sunspot on the chessboard.
"The area around the Mu River is flooded. The whereabouts of the 200,000 taels of gold sent by the imperial court are unknown...... The embroidery workshop strongly requested to intervene in the case and recover the disaster relief funds. King Xuan truthfully said the worries in his heart.
"That's a good thing, isn't it? With the intervention of the embroidery workshop, you don't have to work anymore! The boy shook his head.
After so many years, King Xuan's temperament of worrying about the country and the people has not changed.
"There are too many corrupt officials in the court, and there is no room for sand in the eyes of this king. Besides, 200,000 taels of gold is not a small amount for ordinary people. The corners of King Xuan's lips tightened slightly, and he held a white child, and decided to win or lose.
The young man was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that he had made a wrong move, "It's so boring every time!" ”
But he only attributed it to bad luck.
"It's you who don't care." King Xuan glanced at the young man.
"You are just too worried, this kind of disaster relief is done by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince alone every year, but he is afraid that other princes and grandchildren will steal his limelight, so why should you bother yourself."
At the mention of the crown prince Murong Sheng, King Xuan's solemn expression was slightly relaxed, the corners of his lips outlined a seemingly innocent smile, and his eyes were deep and waveless.
"So, Murong Sheng broke into the big basket? The news was blocked so fast, no wonder the embroidery workshop was intervening! ”
"What does this have to do with the embroidery workshop?" The teenager said.
"The embroidery shops are doing business all over the country, and the floods have had a big impact on their shops in the south. Helping the government to relieve the victims of the disaster, one is to win the hearts of the people, improve the status of the embroidery workshop in the minds of the people, and then it is profitable, and the court is also very powerful. "The development and growth of the embroidery workshop in the past two years have not escaped the eyes of King Xuan.
"So among the four major families, it won't be long before one family is going to be removed from the embroidery workshop?"
"So to speak." Xuan Wang Zhengyan.
"Is it the Jun family?" The teenager made a bold guess.
Jun family?
Speaking of the Jun family, King Xuan remembered the white-clothed young man in a wheelchair with a smile on his face, "Changqing, everything can't just look at appearances. The Jun family is in decline, but there is still one person. ”
"Tell me who this person is, then?" The boy picked up a teapot and added some hot tea to both cups.
"You have also seen this person, he is the only concubine of the Jun family."
"It's him! People are in wheelchairs and can still have such charming smiles. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to laugh! Drinking tea, the young man pursed his lips and smiled shallowly.
Jun Wuwu's sitting in a wheelchair is not congenital, it is a masterpiece that was plotted on the way back to Jun's house. As for those who want to put Jun to death, the Jun family is still investigating.
The only sister-in-law! For a powerful family like the Jun family, examples of open and secret battles are not uncommon. Is it a vendetta or infighting? Hardly.
When it comes to the Jun family, the young man will inevitably think of the open and secret battles between the major families, and his temples will swell just thinking about it.
"Let's put aside the sister-in-law of the Jun family for the time being, his smile on his face has been reminded by Your Highness, and I feel countless cold arrows coming to my spine."
"What does Changqing want to say?" King Xuan took a sip of the hot tea on his side and said lightly.
The young man did not shy away from it, and said bluntly: "Your Highness, let's talk about Miss Yan who is full of cold air, how about it?" ”
King Xuan raised his eyes and looked at the young man who was sitting on the opposite side and wanted to talk about Yan Qianqing, and he didn't say a word for a long time.
"What? It's hard to have time to play a game of chess pieces with you, and after chatting for a while, you don't have such a big reaction to talk about anyone, this will say Miss Shangyan, Your Highness, you cherish words like gold, aren't you happy? King Xuan was a little embarrassed, and the young man had to find something out of nothing.
He could see from King Xuan's calm gaze that King Xuan was not what he said he was.
"Since Changqing is interested in Miss Nayan, he will talk to him himself, and this king can't be the middleman."
"Che, you know that's not what you're talking about." The young man stood up lazily, "If you don't want to, forget it, if you don't say it, you know a little bit about your selfishness."
His Royal Highness is now eighteen years old, and there is not even a hostess in the house, so it is better to marry a wife and take a concubine as soon as possible! ”
"You don't need to worry about the king's life's major events, you better think about yourself first!" King Xuan then also got up, glanced at the messy chessboard, and looked at the young man in front of him who pretended to be serious.
The boy was a friend he had made while traveling outside, he loved Go, and he had a lot of research in playing Go, so how could he lose so easily?
The young man smiled: "The whole family is not hungry when the next person is full, don't delay the girl's life!" ”
"Yes! Now that the victims of the disaster are temporarily relieved by the embroidery workshop, and the disaster money is also provided by the embroidery workshop to help the government find it, and Murong Sheng is taking the risk, the king will have a good rest for the time being. King Xuan took a deep breath.
Seeing this, the young man said coldly, "Your Highness, is this lamenting the ups and downs of the eunuch road?" ”
"It's a sigh that Shaohua is fleeting!" King Xuan smiled.
Messy in the teenage wind......
Yan Qianqing came slowly, and Yu'er had already sent the letter. Now Hikosaaki only hopes that when her old father sees the letter, it will only be her temporary sympathy.
Lu'er complained all day, and she didn't have to think about Yan Qianqing to know what was going on. Considering that everyone is tired now, rest for the afternoon and stay until the evening, and then take the two of them out for a picnic.
Lying alone on the edge of the windowsill, looking at the endless stream of people downstairs, Yan Qianqing crept closer behind Lu'er.
"Better not let Miss Ben drop you off here!"
Yan Qianqing's words dispelled Lu'er's next spoof. Putting it away, her lips pursed slightly, "Who is Miss missing when she lies on her stomach like this?" ”
"No, it's just lying on your stomach." Hiko's words were very direct.
"Alright! Miss said anything, Lu'er thought that Miss you had lovesickness! Stepping forward, Lu'er looked at the place where Yan was stunned.
