Queen Mother, she just wants to lie down

Chapter 156. The Queen Mother is Mighty

Ruan Qing looked at Mr. Yin who was outraged by her few words. He was quite speechless for a moment. After a moment of silence, he shook his head and sighed:

"This guy is really not very good. He always pretends to be mysterious. He is a very young man. When something happens, his mental strength is as weak as paper. He is too fragile."

Mr. Yin, who had just shown signs of waking up, was sent away again by her words.

Mr. Feng, who was sitting next to her, shrank back involuntarily when he saw this, subconsciously trying to reduce his sense of presence.

The Queen Mother in front of her was really terrifying. She acted mysteriously and acted unreasonably. She was even more skilled in this heart-breaking technique.

Mr. Yin used to be such an arrogant person, but now... Tsk, how miserable!

"You don't need to be so nervous, although it seems a bit stupid for you to choose to cooperate with such a mentally ill person.

But I am a man of rules, and I will not go back on my promise to you. The premise is that you must do what you promise me.

You sell the fairy ointment as normal at the price you set before, and after you sell it, take the initiative to donate the money to the national treasury.

The other thing is, if any of your Feng family members have committed crimes over the years, let them take the initiative to surrender. As long as they do these things, I promise not to get involved, not to ransack your homes, and not to belittle the lintel of your Feng family.

From now on, as long as the children of your Feng family follow the rules and behave peacefully, they can take the imperial examination, do business, and live their own small lives like normal people. " Ruan Qing turned her eyes to him.

"Don't worry, give me two months, I will handle everything properly." Mr. Feng stood up and bowed to the ground respectfully towards her.

Old Master Feng was forced to donate all the money his family had worked hard for three years to the national treasury. At the same time, he also had to ask all those in the clan who had violated the law and committed crimes to surrender. Logically speaking, he should be very resentful and unwilling.

In fact, he doesn't hate it, not at all.

He is a truly smart man who understands the trade-offs.

If an ordinary family confronts the imperial court, let alone committing a major taboo, even if it does not make any mistakes, trying to confront the imperial court head-on is tantamount to self-destruction.

The Queen Mother only asked him to donate some money and ask those who had committed crimes in the family to take the initiative to surrender, and let the rest be forgotten.

Not getting involved or ransacking homes, this is simply a great blessing.

He would write down the mistakes he had made and how to deal with losses in a timely manner into the family rules, warning future generations to think twice before doing anything.

Ruan Qing drank a cup of tea, asked Mr. Yin and Yin Liu to be taken along, and walked out of Old Master Feng's yard.

Looking at the clear sky above my head, I couldn't help but sigh.

Power is indeed good, no wonder so many people spend their entire lives chasing it.

If it were not for the status of the Queen Mother, the poppy case would not have been handled so lightly, and the old master of the Feng family would not have compromised so easily.

As for whether you are worried that the Feng family will regret it? Ruan Qing has no such worries at all.

The status and strength of the two parties are completely unequal. If they are worried about going back on their word, it is because the Feng family is worried about her going back on her word, and it is not for her to worry about others going back on her word.

When she returned to the inn, Yang San and Mu San were chatting in the courtyard behind the inn with their legs hanging down.

Seeing her coming in, the two of them immediately lowered their legs: "Mrs."

"Yang San, I haven't seen you for a while. How are you? How is the river survey going?" Ruan Qing didn't care about these details. He walked next to them, pulled up an empty chair and sat down.

"The more than 200 miles of river course from Jinghe River to Luoshui River to Fu'an has been measured. I will be able to sort out the detailed data in the next two days." Yang San replied.

For more than half a month, Lin Haoming and others have been very busy, and he has not been idle either.

"Well, I can rest assured that you can do your job. Where is Mu San? After what happened here, where are you going to go?" Ruan Qing nodded and asked Mu San again.

"I heard that you are planning to go to Jiangnan? I am just a free person with nothing serious to do. If you don't mind, I would like to go to Jiangnan with you." Mu San replied.

"Are you doing it for fame? With a master like you who knows how to do things, our safety can be more guaranteed. There is no reason to refuse." Ruan Qing glanced at him funny.

Queqing, who had just arranged the two prisoners, could not help but pause when he heard the sound.

In the imperial study room in the capital, the emperor, who had received the letters from Ruan Qing and Lin Haoming, counted the lines at a glance.

After reading it, I couldn't control the excitement in my heart for a while. I couldn't help but slap my palm on the imperial case: "The Queen Mother is mighty!"

She had only been out for a month, but she had quietly brought in millions of taels of silver for the treasury.

No wonder she insisted on going out incognito for a private visit. No ordinary imperial envoy could have such means as her.

But after the excitement, anger followed. There are people in the world who are so bold and intend to plant poppies and other evil things to harm the world and subvert the imperial court.

"Zhang Yu, please go and call Duke Wu, several ministers and ministers." The emperor was excited alone for a while and gave an order to the eunuch beside him.

Zhang Yu left quietly, and not long after, several important ministers gathered in the imperial study.

"My dear friends, I recently received a shocking case from Lin Qing..." The emperor told them about Poppy.

"Your Majesty, if this thing is really so evil and terrifying, I suggest that the dangers of this thing be clearly announced to the world, and strict laws and regulations be issued to prohibit anyone from planting this thing. Anyone who violates it will be punished by the nine tribes.

If someone discovers someone else planting it and reports it in time, a reward will be provided. Anyone who dares to cover up and conceal it will be guilty of the same crime. "After hearing this, Yang Zhao, the minister of Dali Temple, was the first to speak.

"I second the proposal, I second the proposal." Others expressed their opinions one after another.

"Then the matter is settled. In order to make all the ministers convinced of this law, I will soon order the imperial doctor to find several death row prisoners from the prison to test the fairy powder sent back by Minister Lin.

If anyone, after seeing the addictive and crazy consequences of a death row prisoner, still intends to take risks and use this thing to harm and control others, I will definitely punish him or her. "The young emperor said slowly.

The queen mother is right, the harm of this thing is endless. If it is hidden and not told to the world, it will be easy for others to take advantage of it and plant it secretly.

But if you tell the world, its specialness can also easily cause ambitious people to take risks.

Only by establishing the most stringent prohibitions and regulations, and allowing those who take desperate measures to find that the cost of committing a crime far outweighs the benefits, can people's desires be curbed.

Ruan Qing, who was far away in Fu'an, didn't know about these things yet. After Mr. Yin was caught, she didn't care about other things.

It was left to Lin Haoming to convict people like Magistrate Zhang, the Jia family, the Jiang family, and the Hu family who were involved in poppy cultivation.

He is the Minister of Punishment, and he knows far better than a layman like himself how to convict someone and how to sentence him.

Her current focus is on opening a branch of the Women's Association.

Fu'an has a vast territory, abundant resources, a prosperous city, and a large population.

With the addition of Magistrate Zhang's wife, Qin, who is well versed in the local customs, the right time and place to open a branch have come together.
