Chapter 50: Robbing the Rich and Helping the Poor (2nd Watch)
Su Su tidbits are late, and Fei Fei is light.
Jiang Xinyao took advantage of the good sun, and walked around the garden with Weiyun and Danyue.
Xin Yao smiled: "Tell me quickly, what is the lively news outside in the past two days." ”
Danyue said with a smile: "The past two days have stopped, and they all said that Yuan Gong will calculate, calculate, and in the end, it will not be a bamboo basket to draw water?" also said that the fourth lady was unladylike when she met someone, but fortunately, God blessed. ”
Weiyun hurriedly said: "Miss, let him go like this?" This kind of person will also harm other women in the future. is full of benevolence and morality, but in fact he is a despicable villain, who will be the most upright and low, and he will be bad at home! ”
Xin Yao smiled: "Otherwise, what do you want?" He can be regarded as a big fall, with his article, the top three are not easy to say, and the top five in the second class are more than enough. Now that it has been stirred up by Yiyuan, he hasn't even ordered a Jishi, and it's really hard to say where the future is. ”
Weiyun said angrily: "I, a person like this, all the books have read to the dog's stomach, even if he becomes an official, he will not be a good official." Don't let me see it, I spit on his face. ”
Xin Yao stretched out two fingers and said with a smile: "This is the second time you have to smack him." ”
Danyue said: "A person with a bad reputation like this, it's all light to smack his face, and if I change it, I'll directly slap him in the mouth!" Mother Li and we all reported grievances to Miss, but Miss was good, not angry at all, and laughed at us. ”
Xin Yao walked under a willow tree, reached out and gently stroked the willow branch that had drawn the new sprouts, and said, "What is there to be angry about?" He can calculate me, which means that I have something worthy of his calculation, and only such a person can you negotiate terms with him, give him what he wants, and get what you want. ”
"Miss?" Weiyun and Danyue said in unison.
"Zhang Yiming's biggest failure is not to play tricks, but to not afford to lose, so such people often can't win. Choice is a gamble. Make up your mind to leave, do it crisply, whether you lose or win is up to the sky. He hesitated and struggled. Trade-offs, itching, both want to bet big, but also want to bet small, and finally in the true and false news, he forgot what his real hole cards are? I didn't figure out other people's hole cards, so that I made the wrong bet, bet on the wrong game, lost my luck, and lost my aura. Come away empty-handed. ”
Weiyun and Danyue looked at Miss in a daze, but they only felt that Miss was wearing a silver-red shirt under the green willow tree, and her skin was like cream, and her eyes were like stars.
sighed secretly, the young lady is so good. I don't know who the flowers are.
Xin Yao stretched out her hand and shook it in front of the two of them, and said with a smile: "What are you looking at?" It's all stunned, what has the old lady said in the past two days, the third lady is afraid that she is proud, right? ”
In the past two days, Xin Yao was a little uncomfortable in her stomach because she was greedy for the snacks Jiang Yuanchen brought from outside, so she pulled it a few times and took a few pills. Only cultivate in Tingfeng Xuan.
Weiyun hurriedly said: "The old lady didn't say anything, the eldest aunt and the third aunt were all lifted, the old lady was too late to be happy, she smiled all day long, and the reward was twice as much as usual." ”
Xin Yao smiled: "It is indeed a happy event." But I'm only afraid that the happiest thing is the big sister, who has been in the north for all these years, and can finally go back. By the way, what about Miss Three? ”
Danyue said again: "The third lady is naturally proud of the spring breeze, and she refused to marry if she wanted to die or live. Now he is talking about how noble the Zheng family is, and what is the matter of not being in the cabinet, and he is still laughing at you in front of the girl. ”
"Oh, tell me, how did she laugh at her?"
Danyue was embarrassed: "It's not a good word, Miss doesn't listen to it, what should she do?" ”
Xin Yao smiled: "I don't want to hear good things yet, tell me quickly, how did my good third sister arrange me behind my back?" ”
Danyue had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "The third lady said that even a poor scholar dislikes you, and said that the young lady has a bad reputation and will not be able to marry a good family in the future, hey, miss, don't listen to it, what good words can she spit out in her mouth?" ”
Xin Yao said indifferently: "I thought there was something new, turning it upside down, but it's just these two sentences, no creativity." Let's go, look at my mother, in the past two days, it is estimated that she has two more gray hairs. ”
Weiyun complained: "It's not for Miss, the second wife's face has obviously lost a lot of weight these days, and the number of people has decreased a lot, and it feels distressing to look at it." The second master kept a straight face all day long, so that we saw it, and we only dared to take a detour from afar. It's the third master, who was still sad a few days ago, but in the past two days, he has been running to our yard with a smile on his face, and he has fallen with the second wife. ”
Jiang Xinyao pondered for a moment, and said with a smile as she walked: "Hurry up, I want to rob the rich and help the poor." ”
"Miss, who is rich?"
"Naturally, the one who smiles more is rich."
"Then who is poor?"
"A sad face is naturally poor."
"Ah, Miss, you want to rob the third master, the second wife, but the third master's silver is all in the hands of the young lady, and there is not much money on him."
"Stupid and faint moon, there is no silver, there are others!"
……
As the three of them walked away, two figures quietly flashed out of the bushes.
The slightly shorter man in Tsing Yi looked around, and said with affection: "Master, in broad daylight, it will be troublesome for people to see it." Let's go, the old man is still waiting for you at home. ”
The slightly taller man in gray was stunned and said to himself, "What does she want?" I actually went to the casino and placed bets, and I was not small! ”
The man in Tsing Yi rolled his face and muttered, "Such a woman, you still have three years to worry about." ”
The man in gray raised his hand, and the man in Tsing Yi was coldly slapped, and when he came back to his senses, the man in gray had already jumped onto the wall.
The man in Tsing Yi cried with a sad face, cursed a foul word, turned over a few times, and disappeared.
……
In the spring of this year, a small incident happened in Jiaxing Mansion, Zhejiang Province, a beautiful concubine of Tan Yue, the prefect of Jiaxing Prefecture, eloped with someone because she couldn't stand the harsh treatment of her mother.
Governor Tan's mansion lost both people and money, and was cuckolded, so he was naturally furious and sent his family to chase him around. Finally, in a small mansion in Suzhou Mansion, the adulterer and adulteress were blocked, the two were tied up at the moment, gagged, and escorted back to Jiaxing to be handed over to Tan Zhifu for disposal.
Unexpectedly, when she went out of the city, the cloth in her mouth was loose somehow, shouting robbery, help, causing passers-by to surround the carriage. The family panicked, only claiming to be the slave and maid of the family's betrayal of the master, and the two sides had their own words, and they could not hold each other, and finally were sent to the yamen by the officers and soldiers guarding the city.
The person who tried the case was none other than Shen Jie, the governor of Suzhou Prefecture.
Shen Jie has been the prefect of Suzhou Prefecture for five years. It stands to reason that for a three-year term, it is easy to be promoted in the background of the Shen family, but Shen Jie has no ambitions, and he likes the water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River. He was re-elected for another term.
In this trial, many bright courts were tried.
It turned out that the beautiful concubine thought that it would be a death to go back, and eloping with silver was also a death, how lonely she was on the Huangquan Road! As soon as his heart was crossed, he told him how the prefect Tan bought the officials, how he was corrupt and perverted the law, how he disregarded people's lives, and how he pulled and pulled them well.
Shen Jie detained the person, and secretly investigated carefully, and found out many shocking inside stories. So a letter. It was quickly whipped to the old man in the capital.
On the second day, some people impeached Su Shangshu of the History Department for buying and selling officials, abusing power for personal gain, and cronyism. The emperor ignored Su Shangshu and kowtowed and shouted grievances, and ordered the Criminal Department to investigate the matter thoroughly. Coincidentally, the emperor ordered the criminal department to conduct a thorough investigation. After that, he received the news that Governor Tan committed suicide in fear of crime.
The emperor was furious, and ordered the second prince to personally supervise the matter, and be sure to find out, so far, the earthquake in the Jiangnan officialdom caused by the elopement of a concubine officially kicked off.
In officialdom, it is not uncommon to buy and sell officials, and corruption perverts the law. The abuse of power for personal gain is endless. After careful investigation, how many officials have clean butts?
Therefore, this Jiangnan earthquake caused panic and anxiety among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and even Jiang Hongsheng, who had always been calm, did not look good these days.
……
When Jiang Xinyao learned of this, she only smiled quietly. Apparently this story is full of holes.
Will Governor Tan be stupid enough to tell a concubine about a major event that is related to his family's life?
That little concubine escaped a heavy roundup, and it was not easy to run in the countryside. Running to the bustling city of Suzhou?
The intertwined veins, the branches and vines, along the flowers, always can't escape the root system, or intentionally. Going with the flow is just a political tool.
As for the Shen family in this political game, it is obvious that they have already stood in line, it seems that the old lady Shen is not old, her heart is bright, and her foresight is very incomparable.
Jiang Xinyao carefully analyzed the current situation, and with her father's small four-grade idle job, this matter will not affect the Jiang family for the time being, but to take precautions, you still have to let your mother blow more pillow wind.
……
On this day, Xin Yao took a few handmade baby clothes to the Wu courtyard in the West Garden. This time, thanks to the Wu family's secret reminder, Xin Yao naturally wanted to repay him.
When Wu saw the fourth sister coming in person, he warmly greeted his subordinates to serve tea and fruit snacks to the fourth lady.
After sitting down, Xin Yao handed the clothes to Weiyun to Wu, and said with a smile: "I have made a few clothes, don't dislike the second sister-in-law." ”
Wu took the package wrapped in red cloth, opened it, looked at it carefully, and sighed: "Sister, what a skillful hand, style, stitches, and embroidery are all bad, in the end, it is the female red in the south of the Yangtze River, better than the north, I don't know how much finer." It's too late for me to like it, how can I dislike it, my sister's heart, my sister-in-law understands it. ”
Jiang Xinyao sipped the tea, smiled silently, Weiyun stepped forward, took out a brocade box from her arms, handed it to Wu, and said with a smile: "Second grandma, this is the peace buckle customized by my young lady from the shopkeeper of Jinjue Pavilion, and it is given to the little young master, which is auspicious." ”
Wu opened it and took a look, Cui * Liu, a thousand feet, liked it in his heart, and said busily: "Fourth sister, it's too precious, how can this be embarrassing?" ”
Xin Yao chuckled and said, "Second sister-in-law, take it, it's just a play, what's not valuable?" Brother Chen and Sister Lan of the eldest sister-in-law's family have one, and I'm looking forward to my sister-in-law adding a few more nephews and nieces to me, so that I can't hurt it! ”
Wu smiled: "Thank you, fourth sister, then I'm welcome." ”
Xin Yao was about to speak, but she saw Danyue running in with a flushed face, and said, "Miss, the third master is waiting for Miss in the garden to come over and talk." ”
Seeing this, Wu Shi hurriedly smiled and said: "Your sister and brother are so enviable, they are as good as a person, they really make me blush!" ”
Xin Yao got up and said a few kind words before leaving with a light cloud and a light moon. (..)
