Are you stupid?

Wu Heze looked at the house full of soldiers and the silver boxes that were far less than the number of soldiers, and felt that his eyes went dark.

Wu Heze trembled his lips and said, "Why did County Magistrate Mu suddenly have to replace everything with grain? How good is it to keep the silver, and you don't have to worry about being eaten by moths, and it's cheaper to hand it over to the court."

Mu Huaiyuan stood at Wu Heze with an innocent and pure face, as if he could not see Wu Heze's fear at all, "Your Majesty sent an imperial decree, the treasury of the county government next door was stolen by thieves, and asked me to open a warehouse to send food to help. Although it is good and convenient, it is useless at this time. Doesn’t the county magistrate Wu have a way to buy grain? All the silver can be exchanged for food.”

It's not that you suspect him of playing tricks behind his back.

Wu Heze quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and thought, as long as he didn't see through the whole set of the original painting, but needed his "help", after the thing was done, he would definitely be grateful to himself.

At that time, if you take the opportunity to ask for something, someone like Mu Huaiyuan who looks clean will not be embarrassed to give it.

——Looking at Mu Huaiyuan's food, clothing, shelter and grades far surpassing those of the same batch of candidates, you know that he is deeply loved by the emperor. As long as Mu Huaiyuan leaks something through his fingers, it will be enough for the Wu family to benefit from it Even if the benefit does not fall on him, Mu Huaiyuan can write a letter of recommendation, and the descendants of their Wu family will no longer have to be turned away by celebrities when they go out to study.

Wu Heze hurriedly put on a troubled look, and said hesitantly, "Master County Magistrate, it's not that the lower officials are unwilling to help, but that you suddenly have to replace the grain harvested by the entire county. The amount is too large. It's just that the lower officials are a little bit There is no way, and it is impossible to get the food together immediately."

Mu Huaiyuan sighed and said, "What should I do? Since His Majesty sent a letter, he must have other plans. I guess His Majesty is bored in Beijing for a long time, and wants to tour the world..."

Sudden surprise!

Wu Heze's eyes shot brightly, and the difficulty he said before was no longer a problem.

He immediately changed his words, "Your Majesty must handle this matter well, so as not to embarrass your lord in front of His Majesty."

Mu Huaiyuan smiled gratifiedly, held Wu Xiancheng's shoulders, and threw out a big cake, "He Zezhen is my right-hand man. If I get promoted in the future, would He Ze be willing to go to other places with me?"

Happiness came too suddenly!

Wu Xiancheng was short of breath, and couldn't believe his ears. He stuttered and asked, "My lord, my lord said that you will take me to the post when you get promoted?"

Mu Huaiyuan took half a step forward, drawing closer the distance between himself and Wu Xiancheng, and lowered his voice and said meaningfully, "He Ze knows the truth of 'one emperor, one courtier'. The late emperor's courtiers are useless, Your Majesty I must choose my own people to come up. I am not in court at will, but how can I refuse to be loyal to His Majesty. If you are by my side to assist, it will be good for you and me."

Wu Xiancheng has always been conceited and looked down on others. He listened to Mu Huaiyuan's words and believed them without any doubt.

It's just that the more self-proclaimed smart people are, the more suspicious they become. After Wu Xiancheng's excitement reached the peak, he finally remembered the agreement he had made with the king of Jiayu County, and hesitantly suggested to Mu Huaiyuan, "Jiayu County After all, the king is His Majesty's own uncle, and his seniority is extremely high, won't he stop His Majesty from touring the world?"

Mu Huaiyuan looked at Wu Xiancheng inexplicably, as if he couldn't understand what he was going to say.

The two looked at each other silently, embarrassed, and it took a while for Mu Huaiyuan to suddenly realize, "What He Ze means is that the king of Jiayu County has raised his heart here, right?"

He raised his head and laughed, as if he had heard the funniest news in the world, and sneered mercilessly, "Don't mention the present, even if he only owned three cities back then, he thought he had the ability to compete with His Majesty Your Majesty is rich in the world, there are 44 states and counties in total, what is the king of Jiayu County, he is really a frog at the bottom of a well, he can only daydream."

The contrast between 44 counties and three counties is too strong.

Wu Xiancheng's face was feverish when he heard it, and he was really embarrassed to say anything else. He felt that he really had too much contact with the Jiayu County King in the past, so he was fooled by the Jiayu County King's three-inch tongue and believed the other party's evil.

Wu Xiancheng never mentioned his obsessive greed, and put all the responsibility on the head of Jiayu County King.

He was no longer in the mood to ask other questions, he just wanted to ask Mu Huaiyuan to leave his house as soon as possible, "I'm going to find a grain merchant."

Mu Huaiyuan got up and left quickly, "Then I won't delay you. Yesterday I heard that there are magical birds appearing on the mountain, and I have to visit a new famous mountain today."

Mu Huaiyuan left the Cheng's house in Wu County, and told Fan Bai directly, "Find a few good spies to keep an eye on the Wu family's movements, and arrest everyone he contacts."

Fan Bai didn't understand what Mu Huaiyuan was doing, so he asked curiously, "Don't you wait for them to bring the grain here before doing it?"

Mu Huaiyuan laughed, "Businessmen usually experience intrigues, and their lives are always in danger. They are far more defensive than Wu Xiancheng. If they don't arrest them immediately this time, they will promise Wu Heze well afterwards. You can run away without a trace by turning your head. This group of businessmen must be related to Jiayu County King. If the news spreads to Beijing, I am afraid that there will be another disturbance. It is better to catch them all."

Fan Bai was ordered to leave, while Mu Huaiyuan sat in the car and closed his eyes to rest.

After this lifetime, about eight/nine out of ten of the forces left by the Jiayu County King in Shu can be eradicated, and the crisis in the capital has been resolved.

Mu Huaiyuan thought that Shenlong would no longer have to endure nausea to deal with Jiayu Junwang's troubles again and again, his cold face was stained with a smile.

Mu Huaiyuan was in a good mood, but he didn't know that Shenlong had encountered a trouble in Beijing.

One year after Shenlong ascended the throne, under the urging of the classics, he changed the year name "Yuanhe", and Shenlong was naturally called "Yuanhe Emperor".

As the so-called new year and new atmosphere, even though Emperor Yuanhe still showed filial piety to the new emperor, but with the blessings bestowed by the palace during the New Year, the officials finally stopped being tense and dare not talk and laugh as before.

In summer, it happened to coincide with the [-]th birthday of the old lady of the Cui family.

Seventy is rare in life, let alone 80.

The old lady of the Cui family is Empress Cui's direct grandmother, that is, Yuan Hedi's direct great-grandmother.

The Son of Heaven is honorable, so of course the old lady of the Cui family can't go to Emperor Yuanhe to rely on her old age to sell her old age, but Shenlong and Queen Mother Cui staged a big show of motherly kindness and filial piety to establish their prestige. Shenlong was really embarrassed to say nothing about his birthday.

It happened that both Shenlong and Empress Dowager Cui had been bored in the palace for too long and wanted to go out for a stroll, so they ordered someone to cast a statue of Guanyin as a gift, and went directly to the Cui family's old house to celebrate their birthday without their identities.

Most of the servants in the Cui family's old house were born in the family, and the concierge was no exception.Although Empress Cui has been away from home for many years, there are still people who recognize the appearance of Empress Dowager Cui. As soon as the concierge was led by the servants and heard the voice of the Empress Dowager through the curtain, she was so shocked that she hurriedly sent a safe person to pass it on, and quickly opened the front door to invite Empress Dowager Cui and The two carriages that Yuan and Emperor rode directly entered the gate.

No matter which guests the Cui family was originally greeting, after receiving the news of the visit of Queen Mother Cui and Yuan Hedi, they immediately left the guests, went straight over, and lined up to bow outside the door.

Shenlong knew that he came here today just as a display, so he simply kept quiet and let Mrs. Cui speak later.

Empress Dowager Cui watched as Old Madam Cui kowtowed, and after completing all the etiquette, she called out in a moderate manner, and then ordered, "Give seats to the old lady and a few aunts."

This is very eloquent when called out. If you are dismissed before you start to move, you are really close; if you are called up in the middle of the etiquette, it is for beating; as for Mrs. Cui, the big ceremony is finished. To be called up unhurriedly is definitely an offense.

The Cui family members all felt Empress Dowager Cui's dissatisfaction with the Cui family. The whole room was silent, which was different from the noise outside the door.

Empress Dowager Cui took a sip of tea and said with a low smile, "It's fragrant tablets."

The old lady Cui's complexion changed drastically, and she hurriedly blamed Mrs. Cui, "The Queen Mother only likes flowers, and doesn't like things made out of these dried flowers. How can she put incense on the empress? She doesn't know how to do such things. Hurry up and change it!"

Empress Dowager Cui is really tired of these small actions of the old lady of the Cui family.

The power of the Cui family is still in the hands of the old lady Cui. Without her permission, who would dare to give her something that the Queen Mother Cui doesn't like?

However, Empress Dowager Cui did not come here to celebrate Mrs. Cui's birthday. She said in a light tone, "Grandmother is really majestic. Half of the court officials rushed over for her [-]th birthday. The carriage went all the way inward. Walking out of the courtyard, I seem to have seen a few relatives."

Naturally, this "clan relative" is not a clan relative of the Cui family, but a royal clan.

But the royal family members came to curry favor with their relatives, and it was Yuan Hedi's face that made people think that Yuan Hedi treated the royal family members harshly.

Mrs. Cui was flattered by the wives of the royal family before, but now she is so panic-stricken. She hurriedly explained, "Your Majesty, the old woman does not intend to be extravagant. All her children and grandchildren are filial. I think the old woman does not have many I will celebrate this last time when I am healthy and healthy."

Empress Dowager Cui hooked the corners of her mouth in disdain, and thought to herself, her brain is not blunt when she is old.

"Grandmother doesn't need to fool me with these words to fool outsiders. I know what the Cui family is like now." No one in the world can play prestige in front of Empress Dowager Cui except her son. She doesn't show mercy to Old Madam Cui , said directly, "Your Majesty said that there were ten dishes for each meal in the palace, but in fact, counting the snacks during the day, there were only three or five in his mouth. In order to let everyone in the world know that the late emperor was extravagant. The wind is not liked by His Majesty, but Grandma is happy. Not to mention a birthday banquet, the ministers even put the running water mat outside. I walked all the way in the carriage and saw that no less than a hundred dishes were changed. I entered When I was in the palace, the family was already struggling to make ends meet, where did my grandmother get such extravagant money? Don’t accept bribes outside in the name of His Majesty.”

The money must have been collected, but the words cannot be said directly.

The old lady Cui felt pain in her heart when she was belittled by Empress Dowager Cui. She pinched the handkerchief and pressed the corners of her eyes, "My lord, forgive me, the old lady has one foot buried in the soil, and she just wants to waste it for the last time..."

Before the old lady Cui finished speaking, Empress Cui interrupted again, and asked back with a half-smile, "Knocking on what my grandmother said, as if I forbid you to mourn after death."

This time, Mrs. Cui couldn't laugh at all.
