imprinted you in my heart

"If that's the case, then it's better to be respectful than obey your orders." Bu Qianxue said with a smile, although everything in the palace is good, but emotionally it's still not as good as the Bufu she grew up in, at least not at the moment, she really wants to home.

Guessing that Jiang Li was coming soon, Shi Min stopped writing and went to the main hall with Bu Qianxue.The main hall of Chang'an Palace, which has not been lived in for many years, is now warmed by a charcoal fire. There are a few small dishes of persimmons, oranges and pastries on the coffee table, and the teapot in the small charcoal basin is steaming out.

Jiang Li took off her orange cloak outside the door and tidied up her clothes. After confirming that there was nothing wrong, she continued to walk in. She lowered her head slightly and walked three steps away from the main seat before stopping to salute: "Mr. Jiang Li , Respectfully, Your Majesty Sheng'an, and Zhonggong Wanfu Jin'an!".

Entering the palace is better than being casual at home. There are certain requirements for what clothes to wear on any occasion. Jiang Li is wearing a marquis court dress embroidered with three plumes and feathers and a phoenix round patch today. It has blue ear wings and a small ruby ​​in the middle. He wore a black gauze hat, a ruby ​​jade belt, and official boots with light yellow piping. He was full of energy, but his face was a little tired.

Although it was not the first time seeing her, Bu Qianxue still felt that such a Jiang Li looked a lot more noble and elegant, and Ruoguang stood there silently, she really looked like a high official.

"Mother, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be polite." Bu Qianxue got up and helped Jiang Li sit down, and asked tentatively, "Your complexion is not very good, but are you feeling unwell? Or something happened at home?".

Although Shi Min didn't speak, his eyes followed the two of them all the time, he took a sip of the hot tea, and then dismissed all the palace servants in the hall with gestures, leaving only Lu Guanchu to accompany them.

Seeing that the door was closed again, Jiang Li explained the situation at home with a sad face. After hearing this, Bu Qianxue and Shi Min looked at each other, a little shocked. Although they already knew that Bu Lang had been ill recently, they did not expect to be cured. After so many days without improvement, Shi Min pondered for a moment and said, "Guan Chu, go to the imperial hospital to pass on my oral order, and bring Lu Jian and his parents to the Hou's mansion for diagnosis and treatment."

"Yes" Lu Guanchu took the order to leave, and went straight to the Imperial Hospital with his accompanying palace servants.

In the hall, Bu Qianxue, who was sitting next to Shi Min, said comfortingly: "Mother, don't worry, Lu Yuanshi's medical skills are superb, and he is calm and prudent. With her, even if you can't recover, you can still stabilize the disease. Now the world's famous doctors gather here It’s too hospital, if one fails, just change it to another one, there is always a famous doctor who can cure my sister.”

When she first changed her name to Miss Bu Lang, Bu Qianxue was really not used to it. After all, she used to call her cousin, but now she calls her more often, so it's easy to say.

Shi Min echoed, "What Qianxue said is very true, mother don't need to worry too much." As soon as she said that, she received two attention gifts, one was surprised, the other was surprised and happy, she just smiled happily.

Bu Qianxue, who was going to go back with Jiang Li, finally let Jiang Li go back first, and there were only her and Shi Min in the hall. For my own good, I must never address you like that again in the future.”

As the emperor, Shi Min should address Jiang Li by her title or title according to etiquette, and should not call her "mother" along with her. , all the remonstrance memorials can be collected in a basket, which can obviously be avoided, why should there be side effects, so Bu Qianxue had to stay and talk about it.

"I know, the three of us were the only ones there just now." Shi Min smiled, got up and hugged Bu Qianxue and coaxed: "Okay, don't be angry, since you don't like it, then don't call it that in the future, right, Remember to take some ginseng and jinshanghua when you go back later, just to be prepared.”

In Shi Min's opinion, it's normal to call Jiang Li "mother" instead, just like other families here, they change their names after they get engaged or married, so just now when the time and place are right and people are right, they just called it that way, no problem. Thinking that Bu Qianxue had such a big reaction, if that's the case, then forget it.

With Shi Min's guarantee, Bu Qianxue happily went back to pack up her things and go home. After some hesitation, she finally took some precious medicinal materials such as ginseng and jinshanghua, but only a little of each.

As soon as Bu Qianxue left, Shi Min went back to the surveying and mapping room to write and draw. He was so busy until the meal time that he was still unsatisfied. In the end, he even had dinner in Chang'an Palace. He didn't leave Chang'an until Lu Jian came back at night palace.

According to Lu Jianyi's diagnosis, Bu Lang seems to be suffering from a cold, but in fact it is a heart disease. As the saying goes, heart disease requires heart medicine, which is why there is no improvement after treatment for so long. As for what the knot is, ask Bu Lang They were ambiguous, and they didn't get a specific answer when they asked Jiang Li, so they prescribed some medicine to strengthen the body and told her to take a good rest.

Shi Min was puzzled. He had never heard of anyone Bu Lang liked or had conflicts with. Why did he suddenly have a heart attack? Could it be that he was frightened by Bu Qianxue's sudden disappearance before?impossible!I was a slave when I was a child, and I have been fleeing for life and death. How can I be scared by such a small thing?Very abnormal.

After explaining a few words of advice, Shi Min asked Lu Jianyi to go back. Since it was a heart disease, the most urgent thing to do was to find the cause and then prescribe the right medicine. If it really came to the last step, then she could only go there in person.

In the next few days, Shi Min was busy with two things, one was to deal with daily government affairs; the other was to continue to supervise the progress of various cases; the third was to determine the officials, entourages and generals who would escort Xuan Changle back to Kang.

In particular, the third matter is the most important and the most difficult to decide. After several court discussions, Shi Min finally decided on the candidate. Yang Yanzu, who volunteered to serve as the ambassador to Kang, and another minister of the DPRK and China as the deputy envoy, accompanied by officials and generals Dozens, dozens of yamen servants, and three hundred soldiers were all registered and transferred on a voluntary basis. Yang Yanzu and the deputy envoy were responsible for the specific selection of candidates.

After the formation of personnel, they will be the first batch of Huachao official teams stationed in Wenchang. They will carry out a five-year resident mission in Wenchang, Kangguo. At that time, the Huachao ambassador's residence will be built by Kangguo.

The escort general was named Xing Boen, and Yang Yanzu and his party were in charge of the security in the territory. After arriving at Yiyun Pass, they were handed over to Xing Boen. Xing Boen led elite soldiers to escort them to Wenchang, and they could return only after ensuring the situation was stable.

Beijun Wang Shanlu, who had been idle in Yiyunguan for more than two months, finally got the will to return to the capital. Even the cold wind could not stop his determination to go home. It was the end of the year and he was eager to return home.

The busy city in November is bleak, and the pedestrians walking on the street are all wrapped up in clothes and hurrying. Even the shouts of the vendors are less cheerful and clear in summer, and they are heard after a long time.

On the afternoon of that day, an official carriage opened the way, followed by several full carriages and a prison cart covered with a black cloth. Although it was impossible to see who was being imprisoned inside, it could be seen from the outline that it was a prison cart. The yamen servant was a little tired, and the road was full of dust, and he walked for several days at least.

After a group of people passed the inspection and entered the city, the entourage stepped forward to ask for instructions: "Sir, should you go back to the mansion first, or go directly to the Yamen?".

The person in the carriage replied: "I'll go directly to the yamen. You take your luggage and go back to the house to report to the mistress and the others, saying that I have to go to the palace, and I may not get home later." A carriage stopped, took their luggage and walked in the other direction.

In the palace, Shi Min, dressed in white, was honoring the Empress Dowager in the Wenxuan Hall, thinking about things while burning paper money. Two days ago, she finally completed the process design of improving the sulfuric acid test, and handed over the design draft to Yun Dingfan , I don't know what's going on now.

However, in terms of paper making, Yun Dingfan did not disappoint her, and finally developed toilet paper with good softness and taste. However, due to the limitations of personnel and equipment, it is still unable to achieve large-scale production, so it can only be used in the palace first. .

This year's treasury revenue has broken the highest record since the founding of the Hua Dynasty, more than twice the average of previous years. Finally, the treasury has become rich, even if it is only for a short time. I am very happy, so I am not short of money for the time being. The root cause of the rush to make money with toilet paper.

A palace attendant suddenly came in to salute and said: "His Majesty, the Inspectorate Zuodu Censor is here to ask you to see me."

"Xuan" Cheng Ting finally came back, and Wen Zhiyuan should have been escorted back too, Shi Min kept moving his hands while thinking.

After Cheng Ting arrived, she paid homage to the Empress Dowager according to the ritual, and then went to the side hall for an audience. After the ceremony, she made a detailed report on the process of handling the case and what she saw and heard, although she had already made a written report before. However, as a rule, the ministers who were sent to the local government on official errands had to face the saint immediately when they came back.

Shi Min sat down, and read the original case handling documents and some evidence brought by Chengting again. They were no different from the ones copied before, but his face became more and more ugly. After a while, he said: "Aiqing handled it well. Thank you for your hard work, the accounts and other property will be handed over to the household department as soon as possible according to the rules, Wen Zhiyuan is no longer the Marquis of Wen, and he will be tried in three courts on another day, jury in the clan's house, and the case can be closed according to the law."

"Your Majesty's absurd praise, the arrest of corrupt officials is a matter of my duty, and I dare not speak bitterly." Cheng Ting thought that His Majesty would punish Wen Zhiyuan's cousin, so she could plead for her daughter by the way. Unexpectedly, it was different from what she expected, and there was no place to speak after the finished draft.

She also wrote to Wen Yuan in private, expressing that both of them raised their hands to give the child a chance to start a new life. Unexpectedly, Wen Yuan pretended to be stupid and avoided talking about it. If you have other thoughts, then you can't blame her, Wen Zhiyuan is greedy for ink, she didn't hide a penny.

In just a few years, Wen Zhiyuan has been greedy for nearly ten thousand taels of money, and the means of making money are endless and vicious, even she who handles cases all the year round has to admire one or two.

If it is really according to what His Majesty said, Wen Zhiyuan is afraid that death will be inevitable, but she is not worried that Wen Zhiyuan will die, after all, Wen Yuan is stronger than her, and he has a second child, what about her?Chengman is the only daughter in the family, how can she bear it!And how do you explain it to your parents and partner?

If I had known today, why would she have had to squeeze her head to let her daughter serve as a servant? If she didn't serve as a servant, she wouldn't go to the battlefield, and let the family worry about it. , is another little official, and now such a thing has happened, I really regret it.

Whether it is about Wen Zhiyuan or Chengman, Shi Min's heartache is no less than that of Cheng Ting and his elders, and the disappointment is as great as the hope.

Shi Min asked again: "Do the people in Taiju County still have complaints?"

"I have no complaints. I said in private that Your Majesty is wise and saved them a lot of harm." Cheng Ting's mood fell to the bottom, but she had to hide her good emotions on the surface and deal with it with full energy.

Shi Min nodded in relief, and asked again: "How is the folk customs in Xiagu Province? How is the rainfall? Are the fields barren?".

Cheng Ting thought for a while and said: "I saw along the way, the folk customs are simple and simple, and most of the people work at sunrise and rest at sunset. The rainfall is slightly more abundant than in the complex, especially in the rainy season. The rainfall is very abundant. The fields are all cultivated, and there is no barrenness. , Because of His Majesty's decree on opening pits, a lot of fields have been dug out, and if there is no accident, crops should be able to be planted next year."

However, any emperor who cares about the world and wants to make a difference, as long as a minister comes to return to the capital or report to the saint, he will ask about the specific situation in the local area, so the minister will also pay attention to it over time, in case of emergency.

"Very good, Aiqing has done a lot of hard work this time, what reward do you want?" Cheng Ting was overjoyed when she heard the words, "Except for pleading with Cheng Man", she was thrown into hell again in a few seconds when she was not happy, "it's all the minister's job." , I have nothing to ask for."

"Then reward 100 taels of silver, one plant of ginseng and one plant of jinshanghua. If there is nothing to do, just leave." Since Cheng Ting didn't ask for anything, Shi Min rewarded something as usual. Although it was not much, it was also an incentive reward.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness, and I will leave." Cheng Ting saluted and left.

After observing the filial piety, Shi Min went to Yanying Hall to accompany Wen Yu for dinner. Bu Qianxue has been living there since returning to the mansion last time, and only returned to live in the palace for a few days a month. She thought about it and started writing letters .

Now there is no Bu Qianxue to help criticize the memorial, and they have to keep their filial piety together, and have to accompany Wen Yu from time to time, and Shi Min is also very busy, resulting in a lot less time for studying other things every day.

In the evening, Shi Min put on a white uniform and took Lu Guanchu to the prison of the Procuratorate. ?
