Chapter 57: The Shocking Secret

The study of the Zhenguo Mansion, the old Zhenguo Gong, the current Zhenguo Gong and the prince of the Zhenguo Mansion gathered together.

Zhen Guogong looked angry and scolded angrily, "Say, what good things have you done?" ”

Han Yuanxi knelt on the ground and said with righteousness, "The Prime Minister's Mansion was wronged, I just helped the Wenguo Mansion investigate the case." ”

Zhen Guogong seemed to be angry, and even his breathing became short, "Are you really capable?" Do I have to step aside in advance and let you be the prince of this town? ”

"The affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion are a muddy water, I warned you a long time ago and asked you not to meddle in this matter, why didn't you listen?" Zhen Guogong said so, because he couldn't get angry, he even picked up the family law and greeted Han Yuanxi's body.

After ten blows, Lao Zhenguo Gong stopped, "Okay, Yuan Xi is not an unknown person, a small punishment and a big commandment are enough." ”

Zhen Guogong threw the whip to the ground in annoyance.

Lao Zhen Guogong was relatively calm, and only asked word by word, "You help the Prime Minister so much, is it because of the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" ”

Han Yuanxi was not hypocritical, and said directly, "Yes, my grandson likes Wenjin." ”

"You, you, you......" Zhen Guogong stretched out his hand and pointed at Han Yuanxi, as if he was already angry.

Lao Zhen Guogong said without hurry, "The eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is a good match with us, if there is no emperor's decree on marriage, I will definitely propose marriage for you." But now, the emperor has made a decree, and the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is the future princess of Jin. Princess Jin, how can you covet it? ”

Han Yuanxi was speechless, he really couldn't disobey the emperor's order. But he was not reconciled!

Old Zhen Guogong's words ended here, and he commanded, "Let him kneel here and think about it!" When to figure it out, when to get up. ”

The old Zhen Guogong walked away, and the Zhen Guogong also glared at his son fiercely before striding away.

The old Zhenguo Gong and the current Zhenguo Gong said slowly, "Yuan Xi is an extremely excellent junior in all aspects, and he is still young now, so it is inevitable that he will make mistakes in his children's private affairs. Don't be anxious, just teach well. In the future, the Zhenguo Mansion will have to rely on the support of Yuan Xi. ”

Zhen Guogong said very respectfully, "The son that the father said understands that it is precisely because the son has high hopes for Yuan Xi that he is so annoyed now!" ”

The old town prince waved his hand and said indifferently, "Who hasn't been young yet!" When you were young, weren't you more rebellious than Yuan Xi? ”

"After King Jin gets married, Yuan Xi's thoughts should be gone. Let your daughter-in-law find a family affair for Yuan Xi first! As the saying goes, starting a family first and then starting a business, he should also take care of it. ”

"Yes, my son knows." Zhen Guogong's tone was admiring.

"Father......" Zhen Guogong was a little speechless and stopped.

"What do you want to ask?" The old town prince stroked his beard.

"Today, on the court, why didn't the emperor let King Jin continue to investigate the case?" Zhen Guogong is a little lacking in confidence.

Lao Zhen Guogong's face was solemn, and he said slowly, "You should have guessed a few points, right?" ”

Zhen Guogong said cautiously, "My son thinks that the emperor is protecting the corrupt people behind him." ”

The old town Guogong smiled "hehe" and said as he walked, "That's right." ”

Zhen Guogong was still puzzled, "Father, why is this?" ”

Lao Zhen Guogong was reluctant to answer, and only shook his head as he walked, "No need to ask, no need to investigate." ”

In the study room of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Wen Jin is sitting in danger.

Xiangye said with a solemn face, "Wen'er, these days, thanks to your advice. ”

Wen Jin didn't dare to take credit, "My daughter didn't do anything, it was the Wen Guogong Mansion and the Su family and others who tried their best to investigate the case, and the Prime Minister's Mansion was able to clear her name." ”

Xiangye Zhengse said, "Wencheng and Aunt Tao were able to avoid harm, but it is thanks to your thoughtfulness!" ”

"Do you know why my father asked you to come?"

"My daughter doesn't know." Wen Jin replied respectfully.

Xiangye sighed, and said, "There is no older son for a father, and now that there is a smart daughter like you, it is also a relief for a father." ”

"What do you think about the court?" Xiangye suddenly asked with great anticipation.

Wen Jin replied sincerely, "The emperor didn't let King Jin investigate any further, obviously because he wanted to protect the person who was planning behind it. ”

Xiangye nodded solemnly, "That's right, the emperor is indeed protecting the person behind it." ”

"And when my father was in prison, he was almost assassinated several times, but the emperor came to the rescue!"

"The emperor doesn't want his father to die?" Wen Jin blurted out.

Xiangye looked at Wen Jin with a smile, but Wen Jin asked in surprise, "Could it be that the emperor deliberately put the crime on his father's body and waited for others to rescue his father?" The emperor didn't plan to punish the prime minister in the first place? ”

Xiangye is now smiling, "My beloved daughter is very smart, and she deserves her name." ”

Wen Jin looked at Xiang Ye suspiciously, waiting for Xiang Ye's explanation.

Xiangye said slowly, "As the emperor's right-hand man, even if the greed for ink is indeed my doing, the emperor will not cut off his arm now." ”

"The number of courts, the number of checks and balances is particularly important. The emperor also needs me to check and balance other officials. ”

"Now that the emperor protects the person behind it, he is also protecting himself!"

"What does my father mean by that?" Wen Jin was still puzzled, but he realized the importance of this matter.

Xiangye sighed and said cautiously, "The emperor is building the mausoleum after a hundred years, and now the treasury is empty, but the construction of the mausoleum has not been delayed at all!" Where do you think the money for the mausoleum came from? ”

Wen Jin gasped, "Father is saying that the silver taels for disaster relief were secretly appropriated by the emperor and used to build a mausoleum?" ”

Xiangye nodded solemnly, "It should be so." Even Ning Guogong behind it must have been kept in the dark by the emperor? Ning Guogong was actually used as a knife by the emperor? ”

Wen Jin asked leisurely, "The emperor only thinks about the aftermath now, does he really not care about the name after the death?" ”

Xiangye smiled slightly, "There are not many people who know about this kind of thing, and there are not many people who can guess and understand." Even if they understand people, who dares to say it? There will not be a single word in the history books. ”

"Will the people of the north suffer the plague alive?" Wen Jin's tone revealed sadness and unbearability.

Xiangye said indifferently, "Those who can't survive are not blessed." As long as you survive it, you will be able to live well in the future. ”

Seeing Wen Jin's puzzled face, Xiang Ye explained, "There are so many officials in the north, and the so-called three-year Qing County Order is 100,000 snowflakes of silver. Those silver emperors will naturally not travel thousands of miles back to the capital, and they should make the best use of their resources to solve the disaster in the north. ”

Wen Jin said gloomily, "What's the use of this, most of the people in the north have died." ”

Xiangye also said sadly, "In the eyes of the powerful, the lives of the people are too small. ”

Wen Jin hung his head and wept, but Xiangye comforted him with a smile, "When my father first became an official, he was the same as you, but now he has been up and down in officialdom for many years, but he looks down on many things. ”

"In the future, when you face these things, you will also be surprised."

Wen Jin felt a chill in his heart, and his stomach was also cramped, "It's getting late, my daughter retired first." Father, let's rest early, too! ”

Wen Jin walked out of the door of the study and bent down holding his stomach. Zhuye was anxious, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Wen Jin was no longer hypocritical, and commanded softly, "My stomach hurts, you carry me back!" ”

Zhuye is a few years older than Wen Jin, and he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, so it is naturally not a problem to carry Wen Jin. Zhu Ye didn't dare to slack off immediately, and directly picked up Wenjin and went to Nuan Wen Pavilion.

Qiushui Qiuyue saw that the bamboo leaves carried the eldest lady back, so she hurriedly greeted her.

Qiushui was the first to ask, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Wen Jin commanded in a low voice, "You go and boil some brown sugar ginger water and bring it up." ”

Qiushui hurriedly went to prepare.

Zhu Qing also came out of the room, and when he saw Wen Jin's pale face and Zhu Ye carrying it, he was shocked in his heart, and asked anxiously, "Miss, what's wrong?" ”

Bamboo leaves have already sent Wen Jin to the bed.

Although Wen Jin had a cramping pain in his abdomen, his thoughts were still clear, so he ordered, "Go and get a few soup women." Go get another bowl of hot water and give me the pills in my drawer. ”

Zhu Qing hurriedly went to get the medicine, Qiu Yue hurriedly went to pour water, and after Wen Jin took the pill, he was relieved a little.

This pill was ordered by the King of Jin, because Wen Jin's body needs long-term recuperation, in order to avoid the bitterness of the decoction every day, so the King of Jin instructed the doctor to specially configure the decoction into a pill.

Wen Jin was holding the jade bottle containing the pill in his hand, and a warmth rose in his heart.

After Qiushui brought up the brown sugar ginger water, Wen Jin drank a bowl of hot water, and then fell asleep with the soup woman in his arms.

The prince's mansion, the courtyard of the jade concubine, Qingyun stepped forward and said cautiously, "Niangniang, His Royal Highness the prince has gone to Concubine Song, and it is time for Niangniang to rest." ”

Yu Jin smiled coldly, "Originally, I thought that there was no accident in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would come to me to make a show no matter what he said, but I didn't expect that the people of the Song family were really good means." ”

Yujin has now understood that the so-called honor is actually closely related to the family. So she didn't think that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to Song Wanxin entirely because he liked Song Wanxin.

Qingyun and Qingguo didn't dare to breathe. Yujin indifferently ordered, "Rest!" Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has lifted my grounding, I should go to greet the Crown Princess early tomorrow morning. By the way, he reminisced with Concubine Song and contacted the love between cousins. ”

Yujin's words were extremely calm, but Qingyun and Qingguo shrank for a moment.

The next day, Concubine Yu was dressed up glamorously and went to greet the crown princess.

When Yujin went, Song Wanxin was already there.

"The concubine is a concubine and asks for peace to the mother." Yu Jinli said thoughtfully.

The crown princess was extremely tolerant and generous, "Sister doesn't have to be polite, sit down!" ”

Concubine Song also stood up, "My sister has seen my sister." ”

Yu Jin smiled brightly, and hurriedly helped Concubine Song, "Sister doesn't have to be polite, you and I are cousins, and now we serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince together, so we should have more contacts." ”

Concubine Song also responded with a smile.
