Chapter 18: Dilemma
Yan Yue stared at the trembling little palace maid in a daze, her face full of horror and despair before she died. Yan Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly, in order to maintain the reputation of the queen and make an example of killing chickens and monkeys, there is no doubt that Yan Yue should agree to kill this insignificant little palace maid at this time. But Yan Yue couldn't open this mouth, once upon a time, Yan Yue regarded saving the sick and saving people as her duty, how could she be so careless of people's lives. Of course, Yan Yue has killed people, but every time she kills people, she is only to protect herself and save people, but she has never killed innocent people.
Although Yan Yue hadn't spoken yet, Mama Rong had already read the answer from Yan Yue's compassionate expression. There is no scheming, no wrist, and no ruthlessness...... How could such a woman be qualified for the position of the lord of this house? When Mama Rong's eyes turned to the trembling little palace maid again, she never spoke again.
"Niangniang, Niangniang, please spare the slave...... The slave and maid know that they are wrong, in the next life and the next life, the slave and maid are cattle and horses and want to repay the kindness of the mother......" The silence in the room made the kneeling little palace maid feel some kind of hope.
Yan Yue stared at her, wanting to open her mouth to let her go, but when she spoke, she involuntarily changed the conversation and said: "Say the reason why this palace will not kill you, if you can't satisfy this palace, then this palace will never spare you." ”
"Niangniang......" The little palace maid cried bitterly.
"This palace only gives you half a pillar of incense, don't waste time on crying." Yan Yue said lightly. For a moment, Yan Yue felt that her heart had really hardened, maybe if this little girl's answer really didn't satisfy Yan Yue, Yan Yue really had the heart to kill.
Fortunately, the little palace maid was really not stupid, she opened her eyes and thought nervously for a while, then stammered back: "Hui Niangniang, now in this palace, many palace people and fathers-in-law speculate that Niangniang can't have children. And these people are very close to Xia'er. If Niangniang kills Xia'er at this time, maybe not only will she not be able to block the secluded mouth in this palace, but it will also attract more suspicion from people in the harem, and the rumors will become more and more dangerous; On the contrary, if Niangniang does not kill Xia'er, but beats a few big boards, the palace people will know that it is Niangniang who punishes Xia'er to control her mouth, and the palace people will no longer talk nonsense; Moreover, if Niangniang does not kill the slave and maid this time, the slave and maid will be grateful to Niangniang's bodhisattva heart, and only Niangniang will serve in this life, so that Niangniang will accumulate virtue and have a loyal person. ”
Yan Yue couldn't help but laugh when she heard it. I can't see that although this little palace maid is young, she speaks one after another. More importantly, she said a truth, how can the quiet mouth be sealed. Yan Yue didn't care what others said, she only cared about what Murong Yan thought. Regardless of whether he can have a child or not, the key is what Murong Yan thinks.
"In this case, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is unforgivable, Mama Rong, how about beating this girl with ten boards?" Yan Yue said to Mama Rong.
"The old slave obeys." Although Mama Rong was dissatisfied with Yan Yue's final disposition, she did not raise objections. And the little palace maid kept kowtowing again, thanking Yan Yue for her great kindness.
It's just that when the palace people retreated, when Yan Yue only had Mama Rong by her side, Mama Rong still said one more thing: "Niangniang, do you know that raising tigers is a problem?" If this girl does not remember the grace of forgiveness today, these ten boards will become her hatred, and wouldn't that be a bane? ”
After Mama Rong finished speaking, she left, leaving Yan Yue with a helpless face. Whether it's the root cause or loyalty, none of these have anything to do with what Yan Yue is thinking about now. Yan Yue's heart only remembered that Master Hua had diagnosed the pulse that day, and her brows were furrowed and wrinkled, but she just said, "There is no problem." It's just that there is really no problem, why did you prescribe so much Chinese medicine to yourself? Why do you tell yourself to eat for three months?
It's been a few days since I took Chinese medicine, and even the girls and father-in-law in the palace have spread the word, so hasn't the Qingxin Palace heard any news? Didn't Murong Yan know about this? Since saying goodbye that afternoon, Murong Yan has not come to Tianfu Palace, is he busy with government affairs or what? Yan Yue had some longing and some fear in her heart!
The bitterness of the medicine couldn't match Yan Yue's mood, and finally came to the ideal point of being a couple for a lifetime, but unexpectedly encountered such a problem. Even in the twenty-first century, even when the mind is so open-minded, if one of the husband and wife is unable to have children, there are very few who can continue to be happy in their married life, let alone in this era, let alone their husbands and kings.
There was suddenly an extra pair of hands on her shoulders, Yan Yue turned around in surprise, but saw that Murong Yan had come behind her without knowing when. I wanted to see him and ask him, but when I really faced him, Yan Yue couldn't say a word. Even at this time, Yan Yue didn't even have the courage to look up at him seriously.
"Why is Yue'er sad, what are you thinking?" As soon as Murong Yan's words came out, Yan Yue felt sad, and tears couldn't help but flow out.
"Yue'er, what's wrong? Do you blame me for not coming to accompany you these days? I've been so busy these days that I can't even sleep well, you know the military situation on the front line, and the ...... of this court" Murong Yan had never seen Yan Yue behaving like this, and while explaining, he hugged Yan Yue in his arms and comforted him, and couldn't help but be a little busy for a while.
Yan Yue thought that Murong Yan must have heard something so that he didn't come to find him, but when he said this, he relaxed a little, and then looked at Murong Yan's anxious face, so he slowly stopped his tears, and under Murong Yan's repeated questioning, he sobbed and said, "Murong Yan...... What if, in case I can't have a baby? ”
"Who says you can't have children?" Murong Yan's expression was stunned for a moment, these days, Murong Yan has been busy dealing with court affairs, not to mention the affairs of the court, plus the front line has an urgent report a day in the past few days, Murong Yan spends a lot of time reviewing and replying to their excerpts every day. I don't know about this harem at all, not to mention that this is not a good thing, even Xiao Lizi doesn't dare to use such news to distract the emperor's attention.
"I, I mean just in case, it's not that long, I ......" Yan Yue stammered a little. Sitting here every day guessing Murong Yan's attitude, unexpectedly, people didn't know about it at all.
"You haven't been in the palace for more than a month, how can you have a child so soon. Even if you are not in good health, what cannot be cured with your medical skills? It turned out that my little Yue'er had such a sad face because she was in a hurry to give birth to a child. Murong Yan obviously didn't take the words "this can't have children" to heart at all, and laughed as he spoke, not forgetting to make fun of Yan Yue.
"It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's just that I'm just a little scared......," Yan Yue said a little embarrassed.
"I know, Xiao Yue'er must be angry that I won't come to see you. If I don't come, Yue'er can't give birth to a child alone, this is not coming, Xiao Yue'er doesn't have to be sad anymore. Murong Yan continued to tease in a low voice.
Yan Yue's sorrow was stirred up by Murong Yan and had already run away without a trace, and then looked at Murong Yan's teasing eyes, there seemed to be some kind of ridicule in those eyes, Yan Yue blushed even more, and suddenly pushed away Murong Yan who was hugging him, Murong Yan took the opportunity to let go of Yan Yue, looked at Yan Yue but couldn't help but sigh.
Now it was Yan Yue's turn to be anxious, looking at Murong Yan's appearance just now, it didn't look like something was wrong, why did he suddenly become a little sad again. Could it be that he is very mindful of the matter of "not being able to have children", could it be that he deliberately comforted himself just now to say that?
"You...... What happened to you? Yan Yue bit her lip and asked nervously.
"I am irritable in my heart, in the front-line military affairs, General Sikong and Nabi Chenggong have always been at odds, and I am worried. Xuanyuan Yaohui also stabbed me with a big Lou. Murong Yan said slowly. Yan Yue was only shocked when she heard it, Yan Yue didn't care about the things on the front line, but Xuanyuan Yaohui Yan Yue couldn't help but care. The last time Xuanyuan Yaohui helped himself drug the court officials, and then let himself take the opportunity to hypnotize them, could it be that the matter was exposed! Thinking of this, Yan Yue asked almost in a trembling voice, "What's wrong with Xuanyuan Yaohui?" ”
Seeing the worry on Yan Yue's face, Murong Yan felt even more irritated in his heart, and after thinking about it, he slowly explained: "The code of this dynasty stipulates that merchants are allowed to transport grain to the north, and then return to the Salt Division to exchange for salt, and then they can sell salt freely. In this dynasty, there is also a law stipulating that salt is sold in different areas, and the sale of salt across the border is the sale of illicit salt, and it should be punished by death according to law. For example, Jiangbei does not produce salt, and in order to maintain huge profits, the Jiangnan Salt Transit Department does not allow the salt produced in Jiangnan to be transported to Jiangbei. However, the merchants were profit-seeking, and they worked hard to get the salt leads, so they naturally wanted to make huge profits, so they often crossed the border for sales. In this regard, the prefecture and county have always turned a blind eye, but the salt department yamen made every effort to arrest the salt merchants who crossed the border, and sent them to the county government to demand that they be punished according to the sale of illicit salt. ”
Yan Yue listened and immediately settled down. As long as it wasn't the last time it fooled the courtiers, it was not a big deal. Of course, when she heard about this political matter at first glance, Yan Yue didn't understand it no matter how she heard it. Murong Yan explained again, and Yan Yue understood. It turned out that the Salt Envoy Department was in charge of local salt affairs and was directly responsible to the imperial court. However, the local county officials and others hoped that the salt merchants, after all, the salt in the hands of the salt merchants was cheap, so that the common people could really get benefits, and the local officials could also get some benefits from it.
Seeing that Yan Yue seemed to understand a little, Murong Yan continued: "The people of Qingyun Villa began to transport grain to the border before the army was launched, got the salt guide, and then transported the obtained salt to Jiangbei through various channels and sold out. Of course, the Jiangnan Salt Transfer Envoy will not give up, so he will chase after him so closely, and report to the Criminal Department, demanding that Xuanyuan Yaohui, the owner of Qingyun Villa, be disposed of, and his crime is to sell illicit salt and should be killed.
Yan Yue could only hear her mind buzzing, her brain was in a mess, and she couldn't figure out a clue. It is a good thing for this Qingyun Villa to transport grain for the imperial court, why should it be killed if you do good deeds to earn some money! What is the truth of this?
Looking at Yan Yue's blank face, Murong Yan couldn't help sighing: "This time to protect Xuanyuan Yaohui, it is necessary to abolish the old law, just imagine that the law of salt division sales is set before merchants can transport grain to the border in exchange for salt, now merchants in the whole country can get the salt of the transshipment division through grain transportation, but merchants are not allowed to buy and sell freely, in this way, how can businessmen transport grain to the side?" How can my army be able to secure food and grass at the front! ”
"What's more, Xuanyuan Yaohui, most of the money he earns has been handed over to the imperial court." Yan Yuehou added knowingly. Murong Yan couldn't help but laugh, and said slowly: "Of course I know, but I also have to give some explanations to the Salt Envoy Division, after all, they are in charge." ”
Murong Yan said and fell into contemplation again, now most of the people in the court, led by Prime Minister Wang Cheng, are on the side of the salt envoy, and a small number of courtiers basically do not express their position, Xuanyuan Yaohui basically belongs to the isolated side. In this case, there are really very few people who can come up with ideas for Murong Yan.
Yan Yue stared at Murong Yan in a daze, only to realize that after just a few days, Murong Yan seemed to have lost a lot of weight. It turns out that he has so many worries, and in comparison, he is a little too worried about things that don't necessarily exist yet. As a wife, she should have shared her worries with her husband, although Yan Yue had never thought about political affairs, but looking at Murong Yan's appearance, she couldn't help but use her brain to think about it.
Inexplicably, Yan Yue suddenly remembered an allusion that she heard from her teacher when she was learning an ancient text in high school, and there seemed to be a sentence in that allusion: "The strife of the nations is still the migration of immigrants; The Celestial Empire is unified, how can it be divided into the south and the north? ”
"What did you say?" Murong Yan didn't hear clearly for a while, and Yan Yue repeated it again in a daze.
"The nations are strife, and the immigrants are still immigrating; The Celestial Empire is unified, how can it be divided into the south and the north? Murong Yan repeated excitedly, suddenly hugged Yan Yue heavily, kissed Yan Yue hard a few times on the face, and said with a smile: "My little Yue'er is really smart!" I've figured out a way! ”
