Chapter 336

Xiao Songzi walked into the imperial study and came out for a while and said, "The emperor has announced that Lord Zhang will come in." Lingyu walked into the imperial study and saw the emperor sitting in front of the dragon book case to read the chapter, Lingyu saluted and said: "Weichen see the emperor." The emperor raised his head and said, "Aiqing is exempt, is there anything wrong?" Lingyu said: "Weichen brought someone to see the emperor." The emperor said: "What kind of person is it, you still have to work Aiqing." Lingyu said: "His name is Su Jinwen, and he was originally the county magistrate of Yunxiang County, Jining Prefecture. So he told him about the situation of Su Jinwen and Zhou Bingkang, the prefect of Jining.

After hearing this, the emperor said: "He is still a very upright official, he should be promoted and reused, and he should be asked to come in and let me see." Xiao Songzi shouted to the outside: "Recruit Su Jinwen to see you." Hearing this, Su Jinwen walked in, stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Student Su Jinwen greets the emperor." The emperor said: "Let's be flat!" Su Jinwen said: "Thank you, the emperor." After speaking, he stood up, and the emperor said: "Su Jinwen, I heard that you dare to resist the prefect's indiscriminate collection of taxes." Su Jinwen said: "Eat the king's fortune, bear the king's worries, students can't watch them harm the people and ruin the reputation of the court, students should do this." ”

The emperor said: "It's a good one, this is the pillar of the Ming Dynasty." Lingyu said: "Yes! Yichen seems that an official like this should be reused, but he was dismissed." The emperor said: "Yes! It should be reused, Zhang Aiqing, Zhou Bingkang, the prefect of Jining, are also corrupt officials who are going to be killed!" Lingyu said: "Exactly, on the way to be escorted." The emperor said: "It just so happens that there is a shortage in the prefect of Jining, and he is from Jining, and he is familiar with that place, so let him make up for this shortage!" Lingyu said: "The emperor is sage." Su Jin bowed down again and said: "Thank you Emperor Longen, the students will do their best to do good things for the court and the people." The emperor said: "Let's be flat!" Su Jinwen said: "Thank you, the emperor." With that, he stood up.

The emperor said: "Su Jinwen." You go back first!" Su Jinwen responded and walked outside. After seeing Su Jinwen leaving, the emperor said: "Zhang Aiqing, this time the three divisions will be tried, and the corrupt officials all say that the chief manager Liu Qi is holding the evidence collected by Dongchang and Jinyiwei to blackmail them. If you want gold, silver and jewelry to accept bribes, what do you think, Zhang Aiqing. Lingyu said: "Your Majesty, Liu Qi used Dongchang spies and Jinyi Wei Tiqi to collect evidence of corrupt officials, not only did he not bring them to justice, but he used them to blackmail them to accept bribes and do a lot of corrupt things, and Weichen already had some evidence. The reason why the ministers did not move them was because they wanted to punish many corrupt officials who were too short of manpower, and the ministers wanted to wait for the officials to straighten out and settle down. At that time, I will punish them and clean up Jinyiwei and Dongchang. ”

The emperor said: "Aiqing's idea is exactly what I want, otherwise it will be difficult to clean up the chaos inside and outside, and it is best to wait for the corrupt officials from all over the country to hand over the greedy silver to the capital." Then recruit all the secret agents from all over the country back to the capital and then clean them. In addition, I have exempted the people from paying taxes this year, and asked all localities to deduct their due amounts. Lingyu said: "The minister has written it down, and when the property is transported, I will tell all localities to detain it according to the amount of the previous year." ”

Lingyu said: "Weichen still has one more thing to enlighten the emperor." The emperor said: "Aiqing, let's hear it." Lingyu said: "In the opinion of the ministers, those officials who were framed by Li Ge Lao and them should be removed from office and the people." Really wronged re-enablement. The emperor said: "Aiqing's proposal is very good, and I also have this idea." This is to trouble Aiqing to bother to investigate and implement. Lingyu said: "The minister is the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and it is right to do these things." ”

The emperor said: "Aiqing, how is the new mansion." Lingyu said: "I just asked Yahuan to move and clean up today, and I will go over to take a look later." The emperor said: "I remembered, Aiqing used to live there." Lingyu said: "Yes, I have lived there for more than ten days. The emperor said: "Aiqing has a family, and I feel a lot more at ease, lest people say that I can't live with Aiqing." Lingyu said: "The ministers did all this voluntarily, and they never thought of asking for a big reward, so don't worry about it in the future." The emperor said: "Aiqing understands that you don't want to stay in officialdom often." ”

The emperor paused and changed the subject sharply: "Aiqing, if you have any good ideas in the future, just come and tell me, I will deal with it as appropriate, you can go back and see the new mansion now!" Lingyu said: "Thank you, Emperor, Weichen has retired." With that, he walked out of the imperial study.

After Lingyu walked out of the imperial study for a while, she heard a palace maid shouting behind her: "Lord Zhang." Lingyu stopped and looked back to see that it was Chun Tao, Li Guifei's maid, Chun Tao caught up, and Lingyu said: "Chun Tao, the concubine is good." Chun Tao said: "It's nothing good, she's a fool now, except for eating and sleeping and playing, it's very happy, but it's okay, if it's not a fool, it will be even more sad." Lingyu said: "Chun Tao, do you have anything to do with me?" Chun Tao said: "Master Zhang, when you come to us at night, the slave has something to tell you." Lingyu said: "If you have something to say now, why wait until the evening." Chun Tao said: "It's hard to say now, see you in the evening, you'll regret it if you don't go." With that, he ran away.

Lingyu looked at Chun Tao's back, her slender figure had the charm of a beauty, probably the concubine was too dazzling before, so she couldn't see her delicateness. So he secretly said: "What do you want to tell me, make it so secret, I want to see what the hell you can do with this girl, see you at night, I'm afraid you won't make it." Thinking of this, he turned and walked towards the outside of the palace.

Previously, Su Jinwen came out of the imperial study, and he was overjoyed, and secretly thought: "As the saying goes, people have good fortune and misfortune, I can't imagine that I, Su Jinyi, will be blessed by misfortune, is this what people often say that there is a certain number in the dark." Xiao Songzi looked at him and said: "What do you think, are you thinking about pies falling from the sky, telling you that there is no pie falling from the sky, the reason why you are blessed by misfortune is because you meet a noble person like Lord Zhang, some people meet him and soar, but some people go to hell when they meet him." Su Jinwen said: "The lesson of my father-in-law is that Su must not forget the emperor's grace, and Lord Zhang's kindness, and must do a good job for the court and the people to repay the emperor's kindness, and Lord Zhang's kindness." Xiao Songzi said: "It's good to understand, be a good person, do things well, you go first! Lord Zhang and the emperor can still talk." After speaking, he called a little eunuch to send Su Jinwen out of the imperial city, and he went back to Country Garden to wait for the good news.

Lingyu came to the gate of the Taibao Mansion, and saw that the gate, the gatehouse, and the courtyard wall were all renewed, and she couldn't see the appearance of the old mansion. The door was closed, Lingyu walked close and slapped the door knocker a few times, and soon someone came to open the door, the person who opened the door was called Li San, in his thirties, seeing that Lingyu was busy saluting and said: "The adult is back, and the little one has seen the adult." Lingyu said: "No courtesy, in the future, you will be your own family and you don't need to be polite." Li San said: "Yes, the little one remembered." ”

Lingyu continued to walk inside, and the maid of the ring greeted Du Shili when he saw it, Lingyu came to the living room, and saw that the living room had also changed some styles, and secretly said: "It seems that the people in the Ministry of Engineering have indeed put a lot of thought into repairing the inside and outside. At this time, Chunlan walked in and said, "The adult is back, and the slave has seen the adult." Lingyu said: "Excuse me! In the future, you won't have to give so many courtesies at home." Chunlan said: "Yes, the slave knows." ”

Lingyu suddenly laughed a few times and said, "Home, I, Zhang Lingyu, also have my own home." Chunlan said: "Congratulations to the adults for having their own home, the revenge has been avenged, and the old man and the lady are also relieved to have a spirit in the sky." Lingyu said: "Yes, I want to set up a nunnery in the house, and offer the tablets of my father and sow to worship, Chunlan, you ask someone to find some good wood, and I will personally carve the tablets for my father and mother." Chunlan said: "Okay, I'll send someone to find it." ”

At this time, Xia He came and gave Lingyu a salute, Chunlan said: "Xia He, you take the adults to see the bedroom, and let the adults choose one." Xia He said: "Okay, Sister Chunlan." Lingyu said: "Chunlan, you inform the people, and you will call me Gongzi at home in the future, I feel a little awkward to hear you call the adults old." Chunlan smiled: "Obey, Childe, I'll call someone to find wood." With that, he left. (To be continued......)
