Chapter 19 Return to Beijing to restore life

Before the female Qin sent people to the capital, this reputation had already flown to the palace. It is rumored that this Lingyang princess Zhu Wanqing is the female version of Bao Qingtian, not only is she selfless in judging cases, but also has super martial arts, and she single-handedly beat the thief Murong Xiaosui to the point of urine, crying dad and calling mother.

The storyteller of Xiangmanlou compiled the story of Zhu Wanqing's suppression of bandits into 36 episodes and played it on a loop, only to hear that everyone was fascinated, and those tea customers who claimed to have seen Zhu Wanqing before even portrayed her as three heads, six arms and seventy-two changes.

On the day Zhu Wanqing escorted Murong Xiaosui back to Beijing, the south city gate was about to be crushed by the crowd of onlookers, and the city gate guards couldn't stop the fanatical male fans at all, and many of them couldn't take care of their shoes when they squeezed out, just to see the true face of the heroine.

Zhu Wanqing was dressed in a Qincha python robe, straddling the Xiuchun knife at her waist, and rode a high-headed horse into the city, which can be said to be out of the limelight.

Murong Xiaosui was miserable, he was kept in a dog cage, and he was thrown cabbage leaves and rotten eggs along the way.

The emperor was overjoyed to hear that the disaster in Langcheng had been alleviated and that the confessional evidence about the case had been collected. He summoned the group of Qincha and his party in Ziyuan and prepared to reward them.

"The daughter sees her father, my emperor St. Ann." Zhu Wanqing knelt down and said goodbye.

"Get up, kid." The emperor smiled and ordered someone to bring a chair for Zhu Wanqing to sit down and report to work.

"I've heard that you're doing a good job, so let's hear how it's going." The emperor asked.

"Father, in the case of Zhang Hanwen, the details of how he forcibly expropriated the people's fields are all evidenced by the confessions of the local people and gentry, and the number and details of each family have basically been checked, and I have handed over all the case files to the three divisions, just wait for them to close the case." Zhu Wanqing said.

Hmm~ The emperor nodded.

"It's just the local disaster, although for the time being, the gentry are willing to provide food to help the victims, but this is not a long-term solution after all. At present, the most important thing is that the imperial court quickly takes back the land and returns it to the victims, otherwise once the spring plowing season is missed, this year's harvest will be lost. Zhu Wanqing reminded the emperor.

"This land was sold by Zhang Hanwen to the squire, so use the money he used to sell the land and buy it back, by the way, where did all the money from the sale of the land go?" The Emperor asked lightly.

Shen Liang on the side can be said to have been on the battlefield for a long time in officialdom, and he is keenly aware that the emperor's seemingly casual question is actually fatal.

Zhu Wanqing, Zhu Wanqing, you are smart and clever, and you are beautiful for a while, but you are likely to die here soon. Shen Liang had already calculated for a while how he would get out of the relationship.

Zhu Wanqing pondered for a moment and said: "Back to the emperor, the 250,000 taels of silver that Zhang Hanwen sold the land have all gone into the household, and he will go back and ask his uncle to allocate the money." ”

There was a subtle change in the expression on the emperor's face, and the change seemed to be a little incredible.

"Call the Tobe Shoshu." The emperor smiled, and the fate flower often fell to pass on Yao Xiangfan.

Half a pillar of incense, Yao Xiangfan came in a hurry.

"The ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." Yao Xiangfan didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for the emperor to call him at this time, he was very nervous, and he was also complaining in his heart about what this niece was doing, why did he have to involve himself.

"Yao Xiangfan, Zhang Hanwen's money from selling land totals 250,000 taels, all of which went into the treasury of your household, and you will allocate it to redeem the land for the victims." The emperor said lightly.

"Huh?" Yao Xiangfan looked confused, this money was obviously taken by your emperor Lao'er and Taishi, why is it all on my household now.

"What are you?" The Emperor asked sharply.

"Back to the emperor, this year's finances have been reported, not to mention 250,000 taels, there is no more than 100 taels." Yao Xiangfan said aggrievedly.

"I don't care, you household department will figure out your own way, cut what should be cut, anyway, you have to make up enough." The emperor said impatiently.

"Wrong, it's not 250,000 taels, it's 500,000 taels, and the original price of the repurchaser is not a squire, so it has to be collected at the normal price of previous years." Zhu Wanqing corrected.

"Presumptuous, they dare! Whoever refuses to sell, I will send troops to level his nest. The emperor thought to himself that these people were on their noses and faces.

"Father and emperor must not, this will only intensify the contradictions, lose the royal reputation, the original was Zhang Hanwen represented by the state capital sold in black and white, should be recognized, can not be forced to buy and sell." What Zhu Wanqing said does make sense.

"Then according to you, what should be done?" The emperor asked her.

"Let's let my uncle think of more ways, my uncle is the pillar of the country, and he will definitely be able to make up for 500,000 taels of silver." Zhu Wanqing glanced at Yao Xiangfan, revealing a playful expression.

Yao Xiangfan wanted to die at this time, and said with a sad face: "Princess, have you investigated clearly, our household department doesn't seem to have received so much money." ”

"Oh, could it be that I made a mistake? Then I'll check it out again, okay? Zhu Wanqing said with a gloomy expression, and at this time, the emperor and Shen Liang were also looking at Yao Xiangfan with the same eyes.

Yao Xiangfan was furious by these three people, he is also a smart person, he knows the stakes, if he really goes to find out that it is the Taishi and the emperor who took the big head, then there will be chaos in the court.

"The minister obeys the order, and the minister will find a way." Yao Xiangfan's heart is a nest of fire, he can't get the benefits himself, and he also specializes in carrying the black pot for others, this Tema is really aggrieved.

Shen Liang saw everything in his eyes, and at this time he had already decided that the girl in front of him, with her ambition and ability, would never lose to any man in the court, if it wasn't for his daughter, he would definitely be a candidate for the prince.

Now the problem was solved, Zhu Wanqing returned the seal monk Fang Sword of Qincha, and when she left, she seemed to remember something, and hurriedly came back and said to her father: "Father, I almost forgot a big thing, that bandit leader, Murong Xiaosui, the reason why he fell into the grass is also out of a petition for the people, and now he has promised to return to the imperial court, please Your Majesty be merciful and pardon their crimes." ”

"That's right."

"Thank you, Father." Zhu Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that if she really forgot about it just now, maybe she didn't know that Murong had been beheaded.

After Zhu Wanqing left, Shen Liang got up and went to the emperor.

"What, there's a situation to report to the horse?" The emperor did not look up and continued to flip through the copy of the case.

"Your Majesty, the leader of the bandits, seems to have an extraordinary relationship with the princess." Shen Liang didn't mean to make small reports, but his profession was to make small reports.

"Hmph, it's out of character to mix with a thief, in two days, you take someone to get rid of that Murong thing." The emperor closed the dossier, his eyes shining fiercely.

"Yes."

......

This Wang Qi was taken back to the capital by Zhu Wanqing, let alone being a prefect like this, he was thrown on the street and even avoided him if he asked for food.

Wang Qiben was the county magistrate of a bitter cold place in Yandi, and because of his outstanding performance during his tenure, he was assigned to Langcheng to replace Zhang Hanwen.

I didn't expect to meet the lord of Murong Xiaosui halfway, and now that a good person has become like this, the official can't do it, and the person has no human appearance, and he looks very pitiful.

Ling'er has been taking good care of Wang Qi these days, because Wang Qi did not have a family, his parents died at an early age, and he has always been honest and honest, and he has not saved a few dollars, so there is no suitable place to go at the moment, so he can only temporarily rent a small courtyard in the capital for him to stay.

Zhang Xiaohu saw that Ling'er was very attentive to this person, and he couldn't help but feel a little jealous, he secretly liked Ling'er for a day or two, but he didn't have a good mouth because of his face.

On this day, Ling'er asked for leave to leave the palace again to send Wang Qi newly made clothes. Zhang Xiaohu deliberately changed shifts with people, saying that he was accompanying Ling'er.

After a month of treatment by the medical officer, Wang Qi has gradually stabilized his mental state, and he will no longer go crazy from time to time like before, which is strange and scary.

Zhang Xiaohu helped Ling'er carry things, and along the way, he said intentionally or unintentionally: "Why don't you see Sister Ling'er making clothes for me, we have known each other for much longer than you have known him." ”

Ling'er snorted, "You're not sick, you don't have to worry about food or clothing, why should I do it for you." ”

"I just don't understand, why are you so interested in him?" Zhang Xiaohu began to get hysterical.

"Hey, Zhang Xiaohu, you won't be as sick as him, what are you yelling at me for no reason?" Ling'er felt that he was a little inexplicable.

Zhang Xiaohu threw the package to the ground, obviously really angry.

Although Ling'er was a little sluggish, she gradually understood at this moment.

"Zhang Xiaohu, you don't think I'm good to him, you eat the wrong thing, right?" Ling'er laughed after speaking.

Zhang Xiaohu saw this stupid girl laughing unscrupulously on the street, which was really a bit embarrassing, in order to avoid the eyes of passers-by, he quickly picked up the package again and drilled into the alley.
