Chapter 53: Bribery

"Why is Gu Hong's daughter ......" the emperor said this, and he realized, "Oh, Han Mu is newly married to Gu Hong's daughter?" ”

"Exactly."

The emperor pursed his lips, "It's really a flower inserted in that thing, didn't Gu Hong's eldest daughter say that she was the first talented woman in the capital, what kind of vision did he have, how did he fall in love with Han Mu's kid?" ”

Seeing that the emperor was interested in this matter, Dong Nei said in detail, "There are many people who say that they are asking for marriage, and even the Marquis of Yongping is asking for his son Jiang Huai to marry, so Lord Gu also likes Jiang Huai and has to agree to the Jiang family, but the daughter-in-law of the Gu family took a fancy to Han Mu and insisted on marrying the Han family." ”

Dong Neishou smiled: "Lord Gu felt sorry for his daughter, so he agreed." ”

When the emperor heard this, he sighed twice, "The girl loves to be pretty, the little lady of the Gu family must have taken a fancy to Han Mu's face, just Han Mu's face......" He was moved when he saw it.

However, ......, "This marriage, you have to look at your ability, how can you just look at your face, you see that Han Mucai got into trouble as soon as he got married, and he was tired of such a talented woman." ”

Dong Neishou hurriedly responded: "Who said no, I heard that Gongzi Jiang was beaten because he was not angry that Han Mu married the daughter-in-law of the Gu family, so he spoke wildly at the wedding banquet of the Yong'an Hou Mansion." ”

The smile on the emperor's face fell, "I thought Jiang Huai was a person with both talent and virtue, but because of some children's affections, he caused trouble, and he provoked this matter, if it wasn't for the concubine's intercession, I would ...... That's it, don't mention him. ”

The emperor looked down at the excerpt in his hand, and after a moment of silence, he said: "Find out all the excerpts in Jiangling and Yixian during this time, the excerpt will write about the situation in Yixian so badly, but why haven't I received a report from Jiangling during this time?" ”

"Yes."

Dong Neizhi went down to pass the word, and after a while, Zhongshu Province found all the excerpts in Jiangling and Yixian during this period of time to the emperor.

Only then did the emperor see the excerpt of Yixian asking for relief grain, and he could see at a glance that although this word was also Han Mu's, the content must not have been written by Han Mu.

He couldn't help muttering, "This daughter-in-law has earned a master for nothing, Han Mu can't even write a letter when he is released?" ”

Dong Neishou whispered: "The slave maid heard that there is a letter from Jiangling from the palace. ”

The emperor lifted his eyelids and looked at the chamberlain, "You know it well. ”

Dong Nei served a spirit, immediately knelt down, knelt on the ground and said: "It was the slave maid who made her own opinion, and when she went to get the fold, she asked Han Gongzi one more sentence, and Han Gongzi used to communicate with His Majesty when he was studying in the palace......

He took out a purse from his arms and offered it tremblingly: "Also, Han Shizi gave some things to the slave maid, and the slave maid was confused for a while, so he accepted it." ”

The emperor stretched out his hand, and the chamberlain immediately knelt up and delivered the purse to the emperor.

The emperor opened it and took a look, and saw that it was a bag of pearls, so he sighed and said, "Han Rui is generous." ”

He threw the purse on the chamberlain, and said expressionlessly: "Accept people's money, be loyal, and go find a letter from Jiangling." ”

Dong Nei Shi kowtowed again and again, "Your Majesty is lenient, thank Your Majesty Longen." ”

"Wait a minute," said the Emperor, stopping him, "bring the letter and get ten boards for yourself." ”

Dong Nei bowed down convincingly.

When he walked out of the main hall, he straightened up and beckoned to his apprentice, "Go and take care of it, and it will be lighter when you do it for a while." ”

"Yes," the apprentice was distressed and puzzled, "Master, it's not worth ten boards for such a bag of pearls, right?" ”

"You know what?" Dong Nei said: "There is also a small courtyard with two entrances in the capital. ”

He exhaled and said, "When the miscellaneous family is old, I will go to live in that small courtyard, you, you will have to go and see me when you are free in the future." ”

"Master, don't worry, the apprentice will give you a pension and send you to the end."

Dong Neishou nodded with satisfaction and said: "Wait for me for a hundred years, the house will be left to you, what about you, harvest my apprentice grandson, let him also provide for you in old age, if you can, adopt a son outside, and have a companion when you are old, our Dong family can also have a queen." ”

Dong Nei sighed and said: "The miscellaneous family is not good, he is too old, and the adopted son is not familiar with it at this time, you save more money, and go out to raise a child in the future, it is better than dying of old age in the palace." ”

"Yes."

Dong Nei got the benefit, although he was going to be beaten for a while, he was still satisfied to find the private message sent by Han Mu, but he didn't know who intercepted him, and he never went to the emperor.

Dong Neishou got the letter, and when he thought about it, he didn't know who it was, except for the one in the harem, who else targeted Han Mu like this?

Dong Nei took the letter to the emperor.

As soon as the emperor opened it, he was happy, "This is the letter written by Han Mu." ”

Then he read it carefully, and the smile on his face faded and faded, and finally disappeared.

The emperor looked at the letter in his hand with a calm face and asked, "This letter has been intercepted for more than half a month?" ”

Dong Neishou bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

The Emperor sneered, threw the letter on his desk, got up and walked back and forth in circles.

A palace maid came in to report, "Your Majesty, the noble concubine Niangniang sent someone to send lotus seed soup, saying that it was made by Niangniang herself......"

"Get out, I won't drink," the emperor suddenly became angry, "Since the concubine is so idle, it is better to go to the family temple to recite scriptures and pray for the people affected by the disaster in Jiangling." ”

Everyone was so frightened that they knelt down, even Dong Neizhi didn't expect the emperor to be so angry, didn't he just intercept a letter and an excerpt and ask for relief food?

Why such a big fire?

Dong Neishou always felt that he was cheated by Han Rui.

Han Mu didn't know that his eldest brother used a house and a bag of pearls in the capital to open the way for his excerpts and letters, because it was seven or eight days later, and at this time he was shopping with his excerpts and Gu Jun Ruohezi.

They will go back to Yixian early tomorrow morning, and they have been busy with grain cultivation yesterday and this morning, and they must have a good time with everything they say now.

Although Jiangling is not as prosperous as the capital, it has a gentleness and style that the capital does not have, that is, Han Mu and He Ziyou, who have walked around the streets and alleys of the capital, are fascinated by Jiangling, not to mention Gu Junruo, who does not often go out.

The river divides the street into two with an arched bridge in the middle, with shops on one side and stalls on the other.

In addition, there are merchants and some little ladies or women carrying burdens and baskets to sell along the streets.

There was a little girl carrying a basket of flowers, and when she saw a handsome Lang Jun pulling an equally good-looking little lady into her arms and avoiding the porter who was carrying the burden, she immediately greeted her happily and stopped Han Mu and said: "Son, buy a flower hairpin for Mrs., I picked these flowers early this morning." ”

Han Mu glanced at the flowers in her basket and didn't want it, "There are no peonies." ”

The little girl's eyes widened and said, "But I have orchids here, and high-quality periwinkles, look at this multi-petaled yellow periwinkle, how beautiful it is, and this orchid, the most suitable for Mrs." ”
