Two hundred and forty-three: the court bureau
"This scumbag!" Su Moyao said hatefully: "Since you can't marry into the door, then don't say those inconsequential words, you don't have to let the girl misunderstand!" ”
"His clever mouth, as big as the top Oiran of Goulan, as small as Cuiliu, the daughter of the people, and the girl he didn't know was not a hundred but dozens, if that virtue really became an official, I was afraid that it would turn the sky upside down, or the little prince made a decisive move and directly withdrew him."
Lu Yuanyi said, "The old lady has an overreputation, it is a trivial matter to help, and if he really becomes an official, it will also be a loss to the imperial court." ”
"Isn't it?" Su Moyao answered.
Now she and Lu Yuanyi have a feeling of husband and wife.
However, when Su Yunyao celebrated her birthday in Jingyang, Bai Chuheng and Taizi's life was not so peaceful.
Just five days after leaving Beijing, Taizi and Cheng Tao encountered robbers on the road, but they said that they were robbers, but who actually wanted to kill him was not clear? Ordinary robbers are crazy and dare to kidnap His Royal Highness the current Taizi?
After escaping death, the crowd hurried a little faster.
Xunjing's side is also not stable, the Dingguo Mansion has left a lot of money in order to fight against the Lin family, and even Bai Chuheng almost fell into a plot, and the Lord of Chaodan intercepted him on the way he must go, saying that he would withdraw his marriage contract with Su Yunyao and be his own concubine.
Of course, Bai Chuheng refused, but in exchange for the annoyance and anger of the Chaodan Lord.
"I am a prince-lord, who in the world does not offer me? Which one isn't changing the way to please me? How to bias you! Why can't you get along with your father-master! ”
Bai Chuheng smiled lightly, "The princess-lord is used to the smooth life, it is inevitable that it will be boring and boring, I refuse again and again, mainly to let the princess relieve her fatigue and appetize, is this also wrong?" ”
"Don't be sloppy with your father-in-law! My father originally had the intention to let you be a concubine, but you just begged to kiss the Su family's mother-in-law, you are doing it against your father! Father is already angry with you! ”
"I act above board, I never hide it, who I really like in my heart has always been on the bright side, the emperor can blame me for not being a princess, but he can't blame me for asking to marry a girl from the Su family."
In this conversation, the two parted unhappily.
Immediately afterwards, Bai Chuheng was also assassinated, and he was surrounded by a group of black-clothed people who had just come out of the palace, but fortunately, Bai Chuheng brought people in time.
But those people didn't seem to want his life, just like he thought about it, but the Lin family wanted to deter him, telling him not to get along with the Lin family easily, he didn't have that pound.
But the more this is the case, the more Bai Chuheng will not give in.
In order to please the emperor, the Lin family presented a method that could solve the urgent need of the flood in the south and the deficit of the treasury, that is, to demolish the houses along the river, whether they were washed away or intact, and all of them were demolished and built into shops, so that the silver of the treasury could be recovered in a short period of time.
This method is really not feasible, even children understand that there is nothing wrong with the boasting of the Lin family and the Lin family's henchmen, and some officials who want to tell the truth, such as Su Yao, have been secretly taught a lesson by the Lin family.
When Su Huiyao returned to Su's house, she was at the behest of King Heng, and she couldn't be publicized, so she went directly to Su Ning Yuan to knock over Qin Manhuai's soup cup, and also went to Chang Xizhai to give the old lady a bad meal, Liu He helped the old lady say a few words, and slapped her twice.
It's not the same if this person has a backer.
Bai Chuheng and Sheng Changyu are not afraid of power, and they will take apart the benefits and disadvantages of this method. Although some silver taels will be recovered in a short period of time, this is completely disproportionate to what the imperial court has paid.
Let's not mention that the treasury is no longer full, how can you build a city and demolish people's houses, it is all a matter of moving land and money, let's just say that the floods in the south are so serious, who can still be so big as to buy things for recreation? Shouldn't the imperial court allocate funds for relief at this time? Why let them pay for it?
The emperor did send the prince to the south with grain and silver, but this was also the idea of Lin Taiwei, first, the royal reward of silver, the people were grateful, in exchange for a good reputation, and secondly, the shops in Fang City were built, and the silver taels would return to the treasury in a different way, in fact, the court did not lose anything.
But was such an idea human?
And after the shops in the market are built, it will take at least half a year to a year to have the first batch of income, and then what? How to plan the introduction of business in this half year? What businessman would be stupid enough to open a shop in a flooded place? Even if it's royal face, it's useless!
Moreover, the people who have no dwellings still have to be resettled, and the imperial court will inevitably allocate some silver, and in a short period of time, it is to build houses and pick up houses, and to resettle the common people to lead the merchant market, this money is not a small amount, and the burden for the imperial court at this moment is really not small.
This is really a lot of work, Sheng Changyu and Bai Chuheng said all these things that others dare not say in the court, and the angry Lin Taiwei's face was black for a while and red for a while, the emperor didn't think about it so much, but now he is also very distrustful of this idea, and directly rejected Lin Taiwei's meaning.
Su Yao cast an appreciative look at Bai Chuheng and Sheng Changyu, both of them are his sons-in-law, not to mention the integrity of character, a mouth is a convincing truth, and it is really good to be able to do a great career when you close your mouth!
Bai Chuheng didn't write to tell Su Yunyao about these things, mainly because he was afraid that she would be worried, so he only wrote things on the letter to reassure her.
No, it's letter again.
"My brother-in-law again?" Su Moyao asked with a smile.
"Where's my brother-in-law Lu? Why didn't you go to her? Su Yunyao said tooth for tooth.
"He went for a walk with his grandmother." Su Moyao was not a little embarrassed, sat on the chair and asked, "What did my brother-in-law say, how is Xunjing doing during this time?" ”
Su Yunyao handed the letter to her, "It's okay, there are Dingguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion, and the Lin family is still suppressed, but this does not delay the Lin family to be a demon." ”
"What about our family? Cao's how's they? ”
Su Yunyao sighed and opened the letter Qin Manhuai wrote to her, "King Heng has already started to deal with his father, and a few days ago he also signaled the seventh sister to go to the house to make a big fuss, and my grandmother's illness finally got better, and I heard that she was dizzy again, and the fourth lady was too, and she was slapped after saying two sentences to the seventh sister, and now she can't afford to be sick." ”
"So arrogant?" Su Moyao said angrily: "She's still not human? ”
"Who let King Heng deliberately not deal with our family, and the seventh sister can deal with our family by listening to him, fortunately it is the seventh sister, otherwise if it is really difficult to be a father in the court, then the matter is even bigger."
Su Moyao nodded in agreement, "It seems that we should go back soon, if the seventh sister goes back to the mansion again, I will take her back to her Hengwang Mansion!" ”
I set an itinerary with Mrs. Qin, and it was the morning three days later.
This time I only stayed for about half a month, and the old lady Qin was reluctant to let her two granddaughters guard her every day, and she was not allowed to go anywhere.
Some people don't know that the two Yao already have masters, and several people who beat the two of them think that marrying them is really getting married to the Marquis of Jingyang, so wouldn't the days after that be beautiful?
There are those who praise Su Yunyao for being gentle and beautiful, those who praise Su Moyao for being clever and bright, and there is a lady who said that she wants to marry her two sons and want them to marry into their family.
On the most important day, three families came to the Hou Mansion one day, and the meaning of the words was to meet two girls from Xunjing.
It's not that I haven't seen it when I was a child, but when I get older, it will inevitably be more beautiful, besides, looking for the capital is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, feng shui raises beauties, and the family background of looking for Beijing is so good, and marrying home is marrying a big baby!
Old Mrs. Qin couldn't see through their faces, she could deal with them a few days ago, but then she didn't come forward, everything was blocked back by Mama Qiu, and then she closed the door directly after saying that she was sick, and didn't let outsiders in.
"It's a pity, there are so many interesting places in Jingyang, I can't take you there." Old Lady Qin said with a sigh.
"It's okay, it's okay, the granddaughters like to be with their grandmothers! Don't go out and let those people look back and forth like picking fabrics! Su Yunyao said coquettishly, "There are still a few days to go back to Beijing, so don't waste the time accompanying you to deal with them!" ”
Seeing that her granddaughter was so sensible and understanding, Mrs. Qin was very nervous in her heart, and stretched out her dry hand to stroke her hair bun again and again, "It is estimated that you and Mo'er will have to get married this year or next year, and my grandmother has nothing else, so I will prepare a rich dowry for you, and I will not let you make people laugh, but my grandmother is old, and she can't see you and Mo'er go out with her own eyes, and I will take my husband to see my old woman more when I am free in the future!" ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Qin actually sprinkled like a child.
Su Yunyao's eyes were a little moist when she heard this, but she still smiled and said, "Don't worry!" In the future, every year the granddaughter and ten sisters will come to see you, and bring you the special products of Xunjing, the pot chicken is particularly delicious, and the taste of Ningweilou is the most authentic, and it will be brought to you when the time comes! ”
Old Lady Qin snorted, but it reminded her of when she was young, when she and Old Man Qin lived in Xunjing.
The reason why the dishes in Ningweilou are delicious is mainly because of the long years and wide connections, and the Qin family has been open for more than 100 years when the Qin family was young.
She had tasted the boiled pot chicken, the taste was unique and fragrant, and every time she came out of the palace at that time, Old Man Qin would take her to have a meal.
When she thought of what happened when she was young, Old Lady Qin felt nostalgic and sad in her heart, and she was full of emotion for a while.
"I have a house in Xunjing, there is no one living there all the year round, I and your uncle will not go back, when you get married, it will be regarded as a dowry, you take care of it, there is the best summer vacation there, or the first emperor to reward it, there are a few locust trees in the yard that grow quite well, I don't know how the past two years have been, the fruit is also fresh, the caretaker is your grandfather's henchman, you can rest assured."
