Chapter 675: Tossing and turning
The place where Huo Sijin was placed was not in the Guogong Mansion, but in a house outside Fuzhou.
Like the previous dynasty, in addition to the North Zhili and the South Zhili, this dynasty set up 13 other provinces, and each province set up a political department. In addition, there are 16 divisions and five divisions, and only in Fujian there is one division and one division.
Later, the border passes continued to be wars, the Tartars and the Japanese people often invaded, coupled with the two generations of Taizu and Taizong, to strictly prevent the resurgence of the Xie family, in this case, had to set up the general military offices in the towns of the nine borders and the coastal areas of Fujian, Zhejiang and Shandong.
On one side is the general soldiers with heavy troops and great military achievements, and on the other side is the civil officials who have been selected for the imperial examination.
These are not jokes, they really happened in Shaanxi, Shanxi and other places.
When these things happened, the current Min Guogong Zhanyi had not yet been born.
As for the fact that the people from the military department and the household department went to Xuanfu to investigate Zhanhuai, and the incident that was thrown out by Zhanhuai was just that Zhanhuai followed in the footsteps of the predecessors.
Therefore, up to now, the thirteen political divisions have become history, such as Zhanhuai, who is also the general army of Yulin, Shaanxi, and Ganzhou, and among the administrative yamen of the three places, there is only one Xi'an prefect yamen with the highest position, and then there are governors and counties in various places, these large and small officials cannot sit on an equal footing with him at all, and the other nine general soldiers are also similar to him.
The Fujian government once had the right to appoint and dismiss civil and military officials in Fujian, Zhejiang, and Shandong, and later because of the sea ban, the Zhan family took the initiative to write a letter and asked the imperial court to send officials to the three places. At first, most of these officials were formally appointed, but then gradually they changed, including the empress dowager's people, the emperor's people, and not only the administrative yamen, but also their hands were inserted into the Davids' offices.
A few years ago, Min Guogong let his youngest son Zhanhuai go to Ningbo, and through the matter of military rations, the affairs of Ningbo were well known, and finally Min Guogong personally ordered to behead his niece and son-in-law Yin Zheng, and took this as a reason to take the opportunity to purge the Davids. At that time, most people in the court were still laughing at the jokes, laughing at the youngest son of the Duke of Min who was doing something wrong, but he took advantage of the interesting story of his brother-in-law.
But when these people finally reacted, the Zhan family not only cleared the guard, but even the major administrative yamen that had lived a good life for more than ten years were all cleaned up.
Now, in Fujian, as far as the eye can see, it is like an iron bucket. But the Zhanjia has never been slack, in the past 100 years, the reason why the Zhanjia has been able to stand tall, in addition to the iron-blooded exploits of generations, is that they are always cautious.
The house where Huo Sijin was placed under house arrest is no different from the nearby houses, with blue brick and earth walls that are common in the local area.
Huo Sijin hadn't been out since he moved in, and he didn't know the outside environment.
If she knew, she might be.
Because next to the house is a small fenced pond with flocks of ducks and geese. In the evening, the ducks and geese come ashore and return to the shed, where a large flock of roosters, hens and chicks runs every day in the open space.
Huo Sijin's house was separated by two rows of houses, and she didn't know that this was actually a place where chickens and ducks were raised in the Guogong Mansion.
Therefore, except for the mothers-in-law who served her here, no one knew that she was here, and even the mothers-in-law did not know her identity.
Because Huo Sijin hanged himself a few days ago, these mothers-in-law almost got into trouble, and they secretly scolded Huo Sijin in their hearts for being troublesome, can't they live with good food and drink? What are you doing with so many moths?
But they didn't dare to hide it, the matter was reported to Zhanyue, Zhanyue thought about it, and let Honggu go.
Honggu did a checker when she was young, and hid under the ice for a few hours in the winter, although she was lucky to save her life, but she couldn't have children in this life. She simply combed it up and didn't get married, and Mrs. Zhong let her be a steward in the house, but anyone who committed adultery, tricks, theft, and theft in the house was all handed over to her to deal with.
Zhan Yue thought so, when he caught Huo Sijin at that time, the eldest brother told him in the letter that he could tell the second brother Zhanyu about this matter, but he definitely couldn't tell the fifth brother Zhanhuai.
But the eldest brother also told him not to be rude to Huo Sijin, no matter what, Huo Sijin is the sister of the Xie family's uncle's adoptive father's family.
Zhan Yue didn't understand it at first, but after thinking about it, she understood a little.
Eight or nine times out of ten, his fifth brother and daughter-in-law, Xie Jiajiu, who had never met, were not in the same eye as this Qing princess, if he let Lao Wu Zhanhuai know that they had arrested Huo Sijin, the fifth brother and daughter-in-law might have a letter over and asked him to help slaughter people.
It's nothing to slaughter people, but as the eldest brother said, this person is the sister-in-law of the Xie family's uncle's adoptive father's family, and the Xie family's uncle was raised by the Huo family.
If he really killed Huo Sijin, the uncle of the Xie family can't blame his own sister-in-law, but blames him, isn't he even more wronged than Dou E?
When Zhan Yue heard that Huo Si was about to think, he was immediately happy. Your third master risked being blamed by his fifth brother and daughter-in-law, and raised you with good food and drink, but you died by yourself, no wonder King Qing didn't take you with him when he ran away.
To deal with women, let Honggu come out.
Zhanyue originally wanted Honggu to scare Huo Sijin and let Huo Sijin be honest, but the eldest brother said that as long as Huo Sijin was left here for a few months, it would be okay to stay until the spring flowers bloomed and the fifth child moved, and this woman had other uses.
But when Honggu came back, she brought him unexpected news.
Huo Sijin said that Xie Sicheng had something important to put in her.
Zhan Yue smiled, the little girl next to Bai Shuixian was really fucking right, this woman didn't hesitate at all to sell her own brother.
Bai Shuixian and Xiaolu returned to Fujian, Zhan Yue secretly saw them, and asked about Huo Sijin's situation along the way, he just wanted to understand it, to avoid unnecessary trouble when taking care of it, he couldn't control Chazi, and Bai Shuixian didn't need to report to him, so he only said it briefly, but the little deer next to Bai Shuixian couldn't help it, and told Huo Sijin about Huo Sijin's initiative to use her to help Xie Sicheng.
After listening to Honggu's report, Zhan Yue thought about it, this matter was no longer something he could manage, and he immediately asked people to send a letter to his eldest brother Zhan Chen.
Zhan Jia has its own communication channels, which are secret and fast, and two days later, Zhan Chen, who received the news, transferred the matter to Huo Qingzhou.
