Chapter 281: Holy Judgment
Beicheng Jintaifang is in the east of Shichahai, covers a small area, and there is no mansion of dignitaries, the only famous thing is that there are two Buddhist temples, in addition to a wine vinegar factory. Among the internal officials of the Twelve Prisons, Four Divisions and Eight Bureaus, the Wine and Vinegar Noodle Bureau does not seem to be on the list, and it is not the same as the Imperial Wine Room, but now the eunuch with the palm print is none other than the Imperial Eunuch Xia He. Eunuch Xia is also in charge of one prison and one bureau, and he is in charge of the affairs of several rooms such as the imperial wine room, even if he does not pre-empt government affairs, he can be regarded as powerful in the eunuchs. Therefore, the eunuch Jin who is in charge of the wine and vinegar factory is the godson of Eunuch Xia, and he is young but also free.
He personally went out in the morning, finished all the rice and noodles for the important ministers, and took care of the things entrusted to him by his godfather, and he breathed a sigh of relief. At this time, he was idle and was about to call someone in to accompany him to kill two games of chess, when a eunuch outside hurriedly ran in.
As soon as the eunuch entered the room, he immediately rushed to the golden eunuch and whispered a few words in his ear. Before he could finish speaking, Eunuch Jin hurriedly pulled his legs out of the house. When he arrived at the gate outside, he saw Eunuch Xia getting out of the car by two small firefighters, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.
"Godfather, if there is something to make people come and spread the word, what is the big deal, I want you to run it yourself......"
Eunuch Xia glanced at his godson, but he didn't say anything, just made a gesture and walked straight inside. The eunuch Jin who was supporting him next to him didn't dare to disobey, until he reached the innermost of his room, and when he saw Eunuch Xia sitting down, he immediately sent away all the people who followed him with a look, and bent down with a smile.
"Godfather, could it be that this trip is a ...... sent by the Lord of Long Live Lord"
"It's good to know......" Seeing that Eunuch Jin was stunned for a moment, he immediately stood up straight, and his face showed an expression that was more respectful than just now, so he spoke, "You have been in charge of this wine and vinegar factory for three years, right?" Although it is said that rice, flour, grain, and so on are transferred from the warehouses* under the jurisdiction of the household department and the inner government, there are many people who want to stuff money into your hands everywhere, especially when they go to Tongzhou every year to receive grain......"
At this moment, Eunuch Jin was already in cold sweat rolling on his forehead. It is very simple for all the food in the tribute palace to make money, but almost all of his predecessors have fallen into this position, although he has also plucked the feathers of geese, but he is extremely measured, and he is afraid that this measure will annoy the superiors. Thinking of this, he almost threw himself to his knees.
"Godfather, you know your son, and your son doesn't have the courage to "never ........."
"We know your guts, so we only ask you, you know what those mansions are doing on the side ......of the Tongzhou Canal."
Eunuch Jin was stunned for a moment, and then asked cautiously: "Godfather, there are at least hundreds of mansions on the side of the canal, and the water here is deep, which stubble are you ask......ing?"
"It's the matter of the occupation of the mansion by the Runingbo Mansion......"
It suddenly dawned on me that it was the turmoil at this morning's court meeting, and Eunuch Jin had a bottom. Although this noble matter is not his turn to be mixed with the head of a small wine and vinegar factory, he likes to get to the bottom of it, so he naturally inquired carefully. He explained what he knew to his godfather like fried beans, and when he saw that Eunuch Xia was listening carefully, his fingers were still tapping lightly on his knees, and he couldn't help but ask tentatively: "Godfather...... Ru Ningbo really wants to ........."
"That's the work of the Holy Judge of the Long Live Lord, don't ask too much......"
After all, but after a small way, Eunuch Xia couldn't help but have a little more love for the rest of his godsons, so he had to ask a few more words before asking Eunuch Jin to send rice and noodles to various mansions this morning, and when he learned that he saw Chen Lan himself in the Mirror Garden, he felt a little more at ease, and turned around and went out without any further delay.
When he returned to the palace, he met Yang Jinzhou who came out of Bei'anmen in Bei'anmen. Finding that this one was meeting with a few pro-soldiers at the gate of Bei'an, "among them, there was the private Qin Hu in the so-called "appointment of private ......" mentioned earlier, he couldn't help but jump his eyelids, and simply stepped forward to speak as if nothing had happened. When Yang Jinzhou was training the Imperial Horse Supervisor in Xiyuan, the two were already acquainted, even if they were silent, such as Yang Jinzhou, they talked to him without taboo, but this time they were only slightly leader, even if they had said hello. A eunuch who was still accompanying him stepped forward and saluted, and explained the reason to Eunuch Xia while no one was paying attention.
"Father-in-law, don't ask more, there's an accident in the Xuanfu. When a brocade-clothed Qianhu who was in charge of divine gunpowder went out of the city to hunt with a few officers, he somehow got drunk, and a group of people got drunk there, and he was the only one who had his head cut off. This matter was just reported by the iron-faced Liu, and the emperor was furious, so he sent Lord Yang over, after all, he knew the place in Xuanfu well......"
Knowing what was going on, Eunuch Xia would no longer care about Yang Jinzhou's cold attitude, seeing a group of people getting on the horse and roaring away, he secretly summed it up, and felt that when he would go out of the city to the Shenji Battalion to transfer soldiers and generals to accompany him, he planned to enter the palace from Bei'anmen. Before this person entered, he heard someone calling behind him, and when he turned his head to look, he realized that it was Ouyang Xing, the commander of the front guard.
Ouyang Xing knew that his qualifications were shallow, so after taking over as the commander, he dealt with most smiling faces up and down, so he also got a smiling tiger's pound number. He didn't care about this, and after seeing him with a smile at this time, he said that he had been ordered to enter the palace and went the same way as Eunuch Xia. Eunuch Xia was originally respectful of him, but before he got on the stool, he heard what he said, and immediately he didn't care that his legs and feet were not very neat, and waved his hand and ordered the little ones to carry the stool and follow behind.
"What you say is true?" , "Grandpa Xia, how dare I talk nonsense about this kind of thing, it's naturally true." Early this morning, more than a dozen people were sent out from the Mirror Garden, and they went straight to the courtyard with great vigour, and they didn't take much effort to arrest the people back, but the case reported to Shuntianfu was a theft from the house. If it weren't for the fact that Jinyiwei patrolled the streets, there were also detectives, plus the mirror garden...... All in all, things came quickly, and the Jingyuan side also dealt with them quickly, and the county lord of Haining acted very vigorously and ......."
Eunuch Xia frowned when he heard this, and secretly pondered what he had heard from Eunuch Jin from the wine and vinegar factory before, and gradually had a plan in his heart. He had already been sure that the time when he almost lost his life was the one who killed King Huai, but he hated that he couldn't find an opportunity, even so, as King Huai's in-law, Runingbo's Mansion was naturally remembered by him. Thinking that the family was also filthy and despicable, he gradually showed a sneer...... although he had helped Chen Lan and Yang Jinzhou a little favor, but it was far from the life-saving grace of others, this time...... Just help pull Ru Ningbo and Yang Jia down from their seats, "It's good to be a good person, in addition to the big trouble, by the way, I also embarrassed King Huai!"
Before lunch, this sudden wave of things in the mirror garden finally came to an end. When Jiang heard that the villain who sent the message and carried the poison had been killed under the chaos of Shuntianfu, he was very satisfied, and said to Chen Lan: "You have done a good job in this matter!" Although it was a girl sent from there, she was also a living person, so she couldn't give her life for no reason like this. As for that person's teeth, with the personal papers, there is no need to worry about him talking nonsense outside, and it is a lot more convenient for us to employ people at home. No wonder the county lord said at that time that I am blessed, and the affairs of this family really need you to deal with it so vigorously......"
Compared with her mother-in-law's appreciation, her mother-in-law's approval is undoubtedly more important, so Chen Lan smiled when he heard this, and when he was about to be humble, he saw Jiang waving at him. She sat down beside her as she had been told, and heard something unexpected.
"You husband and wife are in harmony, and I am happy to look at it, but I have one thing to remind you. When I gave birth to my brother, I was already a big man, firstly because his father was away all the year round, and secondly, because his father remembered my mother's difficult birth and didn't want me to give birth early. You're too young now, so there's no need to worry, lest if something happens, it's too late for everyone to regret it. I myself have been through those torments, and I will never embarrass you on this......"
This was said categorically, but Chen Lan's eyes turned red when he heard it.
Although many daughters-in-law in this world worked extremely hard when they were young, when they became mothers-in-law, they often put the past hardships on their daughters-in-law, even those who are kind-hearted, and they are more inclined to hold their grandchildren earlier. Thinking that she had been thinking about how to speak to Aunt Yun Shiliu so that they would promise to prepare a decoction of contraception for herself, she only felt a flush and a fever.
"Mother's ........."
"I'll give you the recipe for this decoction when I turn around, it's what I used back then, and it's safe and reliable. In fact, if it weren't for the insistence of my brother back then, I would have wanted to add another younger brother and sister to him, but his father was afraid of repeating the mistakes of the past, so he refused to ...... Alas, Brother Quan's stubborn and hard-hearted temperament is all with his father'......"
Although he has never seen his father-in-law, Chen Lan has completely restored the image of an iron-faced tough guy from his grandmother Zhu's words, from Jiang's emotion at this time, and from Yang Jinzhou's words. However, "looking at the mother-in-law with a melancholy look on her face, her always strong heart was shaken in an instant.
In the past, they must have been a pair who trusted and supported each other, but they lost the most important half, how much courage did her mother-in-law use to send her only remaining son to the battlefield?
However, as if her heart was heard, Jiang actually murmured softly: "At that time, if the whole brother didn't go to Xinghe, neither of our mother and son could be saved, and we were not capable at that time...... I've always wanted to follow him, but I won't allow a despicable outsider to get away with it......"
Just when there was an indescribable gloomy atmosphere in the room, there was a sound of learning cuicui outside, and Zhuang's mother, who was standing on the side, thought that lunch was coming, so she breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly tiptoed out of the house. But the next moment, when she re-entered, there was a little panic on her face.
"Old lady" Madam, Gonggong Xia sent a little father-in-law to know about it by order...... said that the master went to Xuanfu by order! ”,
