Chapter 166: The Right People
Feng Yuan stood quietly beside him like a shadow, letting Emperor Tianqing scold the two "unfilial sons", and the little eunuch outside had already retreated, not daring to look inside, and after a while, Emperor Tianqing dropped the fold in his hand on the table.
"The position of the household department can't be handed over to these two people, who do you think is more suitable?"
Feng Yuanyuan hung very low: "The slave doesn't understand the government and doesn't dare to discuss it." ”
Emperor Tianqing frowned.
He didn't expect Feng Yuan to say anything, if he really said it, he might not believe it.
Seeing Feng Yuan bowing his head and saying that he didn't know, Emperor Tianqing tapped on the table in his hand, his eyes suddenly aimed at the music on the table, remembering the episode that Xu Lizhen had made when he was handling the case this time, and asked Feng Yuan: "Who helped Xu Lizhen clear the household department before?" ”
Feng Yuan thought for a while: "It seems to be the head of the household, Zhang Jun." ”
As soon as the name was mentioned, Emperor Tianqing had an impression: "I remember that he was the one who followed Jing Anbo to Yanling last time?" ”
Feng Yuan nodded: "Lord Zhang went to Yanling with Jing Anbo, encountered some accidents on the way, and everyone else retreated, but Lord Zhang followed Jing Anbo to the Yanling official office, and later took a tough attitude and imprisoned a group of Yanling officials. ”
Feng Yuan didn't say much, just clicked and stopped.
But it didn't prevent Emperor Tianqing from listening to his words and remembering some things.
This time Meng Dehui incident, the raid of the Meng family and the inventory of the household department has become a lot of oil and water, Emperor Tianqing is afraid that someone will reach out from it and let Zhan Changdong go to do this errand, and then Zhan Changdong pulled this Zhang Jun, and when the raid came back, it is said that Zhang Jun almost scraped a layer of Meng's land.
Not only did he steal the silver jewelry, jade ornaments, but even the gold and silver jewelry and clothes on the daughters of the Meng family were all brought back, and the beams of the Meng family's house were almost demolished by him.
However, it is precisely because of this that he also found out several extremely secret places hidden, and recovered at least seventy or eighty thousand taels of silver for the imperial court.
Emperor Tianqing immediately felt interesting.
That day, when the Marquis of Yongshun just made a fuss, Zhang Jun had a head to follow Xiao Chi to suspect the Chengguo Mansion, and he had offended many people because of his temperament before, Emperor Tianqing remembered that Zhang Jun was not a flattering person, and he rarely showed his face in front of him, but he was more reliable than anyone else.
At present, it is not easy for the household department to clean up those unlucky things, and there must be no more dereliction of duty.
If the household department is handed over to Zhang Jun, it will be a suitable person.
"Go and find out who Zhang Jun has been dealing with in Beijing and China."
Feng Yuan knew what Emperor Tianqing wanted him to investigate, it was nothing more than wanting to know if Zhang Jun was involved with several princes, so he nodded and responded.
After solving the matter of the household department, Emperor Tianqing was finally in a better mood.
Seeing Feng Yuan pouring tea for him beside him, he suddenly asked, "Is Xue Chen missing?" ”
Feng Yuan's hand paused slightly, and after a while, the tea continued to fall in the cup: "Not yet, the people sent to Jiangnan only found out that he appeared near Chengzhou two or three years ago, and also lived in a village in Huo'an for a while, and then disappeared, and the minions have already asked people to follow the clues to investigate." ”
Emperor Tianqing's face was gloomy, and when he thought of Xue Chen, he thought of the person he didn't want to think of the most, as well as the things in Xue Chen's hand.
Even though it had been a few years, he always felt that if he didn't find it as soon as possible, it would always make him feel uneasy.
"Send more people and find them as soon as possible."
Feng Yuan put down the teapot and handed the cup to Emperor Tianqing: "The slave understands that after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the slave will go to Jiangnan in person." ”
Emperor Tianqing looked slightly relaxed when he heard this, and drank it lightly with the teacup.
……
Zhang Jun's background is exceptionally clean, and he never socializes with the prince on weekdays.
Fuzhong is innocent and only has a slight property, and he has no deep relationship with anyone in the DPRK and China, plus he has been suppressed by Meng Dehui either explicitly or secretly because he does not want to be in the same stream for so many years.
After Emperor Tianqing asked Feng Yuan to check him, he decided on the ownership of the household book three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival.
No one expected that among the many recommended people, that Zhang Jun would quietly get this great benefit.
The third prince and the fourth prince were angry, and everyone else in the court was also shocked or confused.
Some people tried to make friends, some people tried to listen, the third prince and the fourth prince had more secret contacts and wanted to win over, but Zhang Jun ignored all of them, and after winning the position of the head of the household department, he refused all the entertainment, and directly devoted himself to the reorganization of the household department, and the first thing was to check the treasury and clean up the mess left by Meng Dehui.
Emperor Tianqing was extremely satisfied with him after getting the news, but the three princes were extremely angry and felt that this person was too uninteresting.
Zhang Jun didn't want to be friendly with them, and they didn't dare to force it, so they could only comfort themselves in their hearts Although they didn't push their own people up, at least Zhang Jun was not the other party's person, so he didn't have to be afraid that the household department would go into the other party's pocket, and no one could get it, it was better than the opponent.
It's the Mid-Autumn Festival in the blink of an eye.
Xue Nuo's injuries were mostly healed, and his face finally showed a little blood.
Shen Zhongkang was not embarrassed when he learned that she was going out, but Shen took Shen Changrui's ear and explained it, and then followed Shen Zhongkang into the palace for the banquet.
By the time Xue Nuo followed Shen Changrui and Shen Changlin to pack up and leave the house, it was already dark outside.
After the autumn came, the weather gradually cooled, and when several people rode the carriage towards Shangyangfang of the Lantern Festival, Shen Changrui still rubbed his ears with indignation:
"Big brother doesn't know what's going on today, he keeps telling me that he can't go to those messy places, and he also says don't covet beauty when you're young, don't be taken crooked or something!"
Shen Changlin was at a loss when he heard this: "What beauty?" ”
"How do I know!" Shen Changrui said angrily, "I don't even have a female mosquito around me, what kind of beauty am I greedy for, it's inexplicable!" ”
Xue Nuo couldn't help but shake his shoulders, and nodded solemnly: "It's quite inexplicable." ”
"Right, I don't know what my eldest brother is thinking, he actually said that I went to the flower building, how dare a serious person like me go to the flower building, if I really go back and be known, I must not ask my grandfather to break his leg?"
Shen Changrui muttered unhappily, feeling that the eldest brother underestimated him, was he so out of tune?
Xue Nuo turned his head and held back a smile.
"Arnold, what are you laughing at!" Shen Changrui glared at her.
"It's nothing, how can a person like you go to a flower building, I think Gongzi is a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Xue Nuo flickered casually.
Shen Changrui suddenly found a confidant, nodded wildly and said, "I also think that the eldest brother is afraid that he can't find his daughter-in-law and wants to play, so he has to say that I ......."
Shen Changlin said faintly beside him: "If your words are heard by the eldest brother, don't want your legs." ”
Shen Changrui: "......"
He hurriedly shut up, rubbed his ears and snorted without chirping, "I'm not afraid!" ”
