Chapter 211: Suspicion
This is 211, the title order is wrong, the editor will work to revise it tomorrow
-----
From the capital to Jingzhou, it was naturally not the inner servants of the Cixin Palace who came to pass on the edict, but the quick horses and whips sent by the post officials.
The content above is very concise, saying that Jiang Muyuan has been away from the capital for a few months, the queen mother is really panicking, it is already winter now, and it will be a lunar month soon, and her old man asked her grandson to go back to Beijing quickly.
Jiang Muyuan put Yi Zhi away, and when he thought of the letter just now, he couldn't help crying and laughing.
The Empress Dowager is good to him, but he went to Lianghu to do business, and she will not easily cross the saint and let him go back, and suddenly come to such a paragraph, this edict should be asked by Sun Ke for him.
For Sun Ke's sake, he will definitely show mercy when he turns around and does it.
At this time, Xu Yan also arrived and greeted Jiang Muyuan.
Jiang Muyuan let Xu Yan into the study, signaled the rain and cold thunder to keep it, and handed what Jin Peiying wrote to Xu Yan.
Xu Yan took it and looked at it, hesitated for a long time, and then said: "This placement method is not impossible, just look at ......."
In the second half of the sentence, Xu Yan did not say it thoroughly.
Jiang Muyuan saw that he had reservations, and knew that Xu Yan wanted to go with him, so he stepped forward and said in a suppressed voice: "The Empress Dowager's decree has arrived, and I will leave for Beijing tomorrow and the day after tomorrow."
It's okay if I'm not there, lest Jin Peiying take care of me and don't leak his tail.
It's just that you have to work hard Lord Xu, carefully watch Jin Peiying's movements, and you must be careful of your own safety, don't be like Lord Cao......"
At the mention of Cao Feng, Xu Yan's expression became a little solemn.
In the past few months, he has seen a lot of embankments, although the damage is serious, but Xu Yan has a lot of experience in this, and after seeing more, he knows that the materials and construction of this embankment are far from the estimation and audit of the Ministry of Industry back then.
The neighborhood of the town is relatively better, and the village below is a mess.
Before, Xu Yan just didn't understand why Cao Feng was sitting in the two lakes and could build such a water conservancy that broke the embankment in just six years.
He even suspected Cao Feng's death, although there was no evidence, but he was suspicious, and when he heard Jiang Muyuan's sentence "Don't be the same as Lord Cao", Xu Yan knew that he was not the only one who was suspicious.
It's just that it's not yet time to settle accounts with the officials of the two lakes, Xu Yan kept those loopholes in mind and waited until the right time to make trouble.
Xu Yan's gaze once again fell on Jin Peiying's letter.
He came to Lianghu and worked hard for several months, Yu Gong wanted to survive for the people, and Yu Private wanted to accumulate merits for himself, he didn't come to mess around.
Except for Jiang Muyuan, among the officials who came from the capital, he had the highest official position and the heaviest task, and he was determined to do a good job wholeheartedly, so he couldn't retreat at this time.
Besides, it's useless to back down.
No matter whether Cao Feng turned a blind eye back then, or took retreat as advance, first stabilized the situation of the two lakes and returned to Beijing and then planned in the long run, he did not succeed, Xu Yan did not want to follow in Cao Feng's footsteps, so he could only face the risk and compete with Jin Peiying.
Jiang Muyuan explained: "Whether Jin Peiying is resettled by the victims or not, Lord Xu has to take a closer look. ”
When the victims leave their hometowns and live in a new place, they will be compensated for their land and property, which is a good time for some squires or officials who are favoritism.
One is not careful, the people lose their property, and those people make a lot of money.
Xu Yan knew this very well, and said, "Don't worry, little grandfather, you will watch carefully." ”
Knowing that Jiang Muyuan was going back to Beijing, Xu Yan sent a box over at night, filled with some stones, marked which section of the embankment it was from, and wrote a list to clarify all the problematic places he saw and found.
Jiang Muyuan looked at the neat and detailed explanation, turned his head and said to Han Lei: "Xu Shilang is quite confused in dealing with family affairs, and he is not bad at doing the right thing. ”
This is not surprising, Xu Yan was able to climb to the position of a waiter in the sixth department at a young age, in addition to the support of the Yang family back then, he is definitely not a mediocre talent.
Those who can't be supported, even if there is the Yue family to guide the way, they will be silent in the officialdom.
The next day, Jiang Muyuan informed Governor Ma that he was going back to Beijing.
Hearing that this master was leaving, Governor Ma's face was full of reluctance, and he expressed his loyalty to continue to manage the disaster for the people, but he breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart.
Jiang Muyuan on the front foot went out of Jingzhou City, and the prefect of Ma on the back foot sent a letter to Jin Peiying, in his opinion, without Jiang Muyuan in charge, those officials from Beijing are easy to handle.
And at this moment, the capital has fallen the first snow of this winter.
The snow was not heavy, and it fell for a short time in the middle of the night, and only a thin layer accumulated on the treetops and roofs, and the sun came out after dawn, and slowly disappeared.
The Shan family came to find the Xu family, and called the Wu family and Gu Yunjin to discuss the matter of Laba and Gu Yunjin and Lu.
"According to previous years, there will be porridge at the gate of the city during Laba, all of which are in the palace of the emperor and nobles, and officials like us are not involved," Xu introduced to Shan, "The Taoist temple on the west mountain will also give porridge, especially the Lingyin Temple, and there are many people who go to get porridge." ”
Xu's health has not been good in the past two years, so he doesn't go out much in winter, and Wu didn't go until he was free the year before last, but he went last year.
There are more people in the house this year, so it must be very different.
The Shan family had already prepared the ingredients for cooking porridge in the house, made a list of the people who wanted to send the porridge, discussed it with the Xu family, and said: "We have a lot of things to do in Layue, especially the things that need to be prepared for Yunjin, and we can't get out of the way." It's better to let Yun Qi lead the way and go to get porridge with Yun Xi, it is convenient for the two of them to come and go. ”
There are priorities, Shan has already heard about the Lingyin Concept, she has long wanted to go to worship, but she can't get out, and Laba is not a good time, so she thinks that it is inconvenient to wait for the first month to see if it is inconvenient.
After arranging the Laba Festival, the most important thing is Gu Yunjin's and Lu.
Gu Yunsi and Gu Yunlin are in Beijing, and Gu Yunjin has many familiar little sisters, and those who have a secretary and praisers are easy to invite, but the most worrying thing is the candidate for Zhengbin.
The high status, the Shan family doesn't know a few, and the low status feels wronged Gu Yunjin, seeing that it has been more than twenty days, and he can't settle down.
If before, the Shan family still wanted to let Mrs. Qin be the main guest, but now they will never mention it, and such an important matter as Ji Xuan will not let Gu Yunjin suffer such anger.
"There are a lot of things in each family in Layue, so we have to settle it earlier," Xu thought for a while and said, "It's really not good, let someone go to the Wu Tai Doctor's Mansion to ask in a while?" Let's see if he can help with the old man? ”
After moving to Xilin Hutong, Gu Yunjin and Wu had already gone to Wufu to say goodbye, and Wutai Doctor also came to see him once.
When Shan heard that it was the old doctor, he was very surprised, and when he realized that he had been stained with the light of the Jia woman, he was more and more grateful for the good of this neighbor.
The Xu family doesn't like to trouble people, she has to be cheeky to speak, and the Shan family will no longer rub it, and his heart is crossed, and he said: "Then I will also ask Master Fu's mansion." ”
