Your Majesty, after he played stupid and overturned the car

As the weather in Yijing was getting warmer, Ming Wanzhao listened to the courtiers quarreling for a long time. The reason was that Lu Zuoxian wanted to choose a woman of the right age to enter the palace.

There will be rebuttals from the old school, and then you will argue with each other sentence by sentence. Before you can reach a conclusion, if you raise your head again, the little emperor will fall asleep sitting on the dragon chair.

So he hurried down to court.

Ming Wanzhao went back to Qihua Palace after the court, Lu Yunchuan was waiting here, Bai Tan didn't follow him.

"I've heard about the early court." Lu Yunchuan stepped forward to take off the court clothes for Ming Wanzhao, with the usual tone, "If Lu Zuoxian really stuffed a woman into the palace, you will 'cure' when you need it in the future. "

What he said had other meanings, Ming Wanzhao could see the bright joy in those brown eyes.

"He is in a hurry to regain control of the inner palace." Ming Wanzhao lowered his eyes, and put on his uniform robe, "After finally getting rid of Anxi, Su Jinhuai will not give him another chance to cover the sky with one hand."

After saying that, he fastened his belt and asked again: "How is the investigation on the matter in Longnan?"

"I'm here today for this purpose. There's news from Jiangzhou." Sitting on the forehead, he looked at the thin back of the emperor, and said, "Qiao Zihan really hasn't stopped in Longnan. Old case."

Ming Wanzhao turned around, looking at him calmly with a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, "The old case?"

Lu Yunchuan saw his desire in his eyes, and there was nowhere to hide, but he still didn't move, and said: "In the sixth year of Anqian, the Longnan Jiedu envoy Kong Bi committed suicide in fear of crime."

Ming Wanzhao was still young at that time, but he also heard about this incident later.

In the sixth year of Anqian, Longnan was plagued by locusts, so that the people had no harvest. The Jiedu envoy Kongbi ordered the opening of granaries to release grain, but there were too many refugees, and the granaries could not last long.After that, the refugees in Longnan were in turmoil, turned into bandits, and a rebel army emerged, Kong Bi committed suicide in fear of crime, and died in the mansion, and then Feng Bailu quelled the chaos.

"I've also heard about this." Lu Yunchuan said, "Back then Longnan was hit by a disaster and asked for help from Lingxi. My father sent half of Lingxi's granary out. Bai Lu was able to suppress the rebels because he had already dispatched troops from Lingxi before he came."

Ming Wanzhao looked at him and said, "You seem to understand it very well."

Lu Yunchuan laughed, took him by the hand and pulled him over to sit down, then his smile faded, and he was a little cold for no reason, "If Qiao Zihan was investigating this case, he found the right way. The old case in Longnan involved too much, I Do know something."

Ming Wanzhao withdrew his hand and uttered a word respectfully: "Say."

"It's meaningless to say that." Lu Yunchuan's eyes were a little malicious, hiding evil, "What will Your Majesty give me in exchange for news?"

Ming Wanzhao looked at him for a while, then smiled, "Let's talk about it first, let me see what it's worth."

The tip of Lu Yunchuan's tongue touched his palate, his eyes became darker, "It's enough for a spring night."

"There was a natural disaster in Longnan that year. There should have been relief funds from the imperial court. Kong Bi paid for it several times, but according to my father, it was always like nothing. My mother was soft-hearted. She couldn't bear the heart of the victims in Longnan to starve to death, so she shrank her clothes with the family members of the mansion. To reduce food, my father opened a granary for disaster relief, but Lingxi is also poor, and Mrs. Rongsu had to sew the shoes of the soldiers in the army, after all, it didn’t save many people.”

Lu Yunchuan sighed, and rubbed a porcelain cup in his hands. Although he had never seen the miserable conditions of the people in Longnan, he had seen his mother sewing clothes and making shoes by candlelight in the dead of night, frowning.

"The refugees became bandits and rebels. My father had to be in the town of Yuanlu for the Shago tribe, but he still sent a Qingqi to bring the family of Master Kong to Lingxi. As a result, the Qingqi When they came back, no one brought anything back."

"It didn't take long for my father to receive the news that Mr. Kong committed suicide in the mansion and left a message on the wall of the hall before he died."

Lu Yunchuan put the teacup back again, and said softly, "Thirty meritorious deeds are exhausted, and they all become dust."

"After that, my father became furious and sent troops to defeat the bandits and rebels. Later, the soldiers from Lingxi stayed outside Longnan and trapped the rebels in Longnan County. They only withdrew when Feng Bailu came."

After Lu Yunchuan finished speaking, his face darkened.Although he had never seen it with his own eyes, he heard it mentioned by Lu Guanglan later that the hungry refugees would eat anything, even people. They had been tortured by death or natural disasters and were no longer human. Primitive desires, burning, killing, looting, abandoning humanity.

Longnan was really a purgatory on earth at that time, Kong Bi wanted to send his family members out for refuge, but he failed to receive anyone in Lingxi, so we can know what will happen to the family members of the Confucius family.

And the root cause, who is driving them crazy?

Jiedu envoy Kong Bi wrote to ask for help again and again, but did the victims ever wait for the court's relief with full expectation?Longnan is like an abandoned corner, and the people who can't bear to rot in this corner are driven crazy, and they wave the butcher's knife at the weak.

Both of them were silent for a long time, Ming Wanzhao looked at the newly folded spring crabapple in the snow porcelain vase, after a while, Fang said softly: "If what is said is true, I am afraid there is a big mystery in this case, Longnan has not received disaster relief funds for a long time, but However, Yijing actually allocated money to the past. The embezzlement of disaster relief funds is unavoidable

No, but there will always be something for Longnan, so he won't even see the shadow. "

"It's true that Longnan didn't see a single ingot of silver." Lu Yunchuan said firmly.

Ming Wanzhao narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to him: "But last year, the Dali Temple of the Criminal Department of the Yushi Mansion took the household department to investigate, but nothing was found. Ge Tongqian made the accounts beautifully."

He paused, and then said: "It is precisely because of this that Kong Bi was ordered to commit suicide in fear of crime. The capital of Yijing thought that he was not capable enough to protect the relief funds, so that the refugees became bandits."

The two looked at each other, and they understood why Qiao Zihan was chasing this case.

"Su Jinhuai did something secretly." Lu Yunchuan twitched his fingertips, and Shen Yan said, "Feng Bailu is from Su Jinhuai, and he is also one of the fourteen guards, the right guard, with his help, plus a Qiao Zihan, if he can really reverse the case for Kong Bi, at least he can get rid of Ge Tongqian, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs!"

"Lu Zuoxian can't let go of the household department." Ming Wanzhao answered, his eyes were deep, "He put all his sons in the household department, which shows that he attaches great importance to it, but only one by one."

The two exchanged glances, and said in unison: "Su Jingci."

Su Jingci is also in the household department!

Su Jinhuai played these few hidden moves skillfully. If they really succeed, the situation in Yijing will definitely be turned upside down!

After all, this is not what it used to be, Qi Yanxing and Lu Yunchuan are both in the capital, and they have the Imperial Army under their command, which is completely different from Anqian years.

He has the confidence to fight!

At the same time, news of the border also reached Beijing.

The Shago tribe ambushed outside the Guta Gobi and attacked the marriage team. Chinu prince Yiqien and commander Yang Jian both died at the hands of the Shago tribe.

This matter was introduced to the court, and the matter of choosing a beautiful girl for the emperor was put aside.

There was another storm in the previous court, and the Shu Ge's move was unexpected, but it was also reasonable.How could Jebu watch Chinu make peace with Daliang?There are three old ministers and four ministers in the cabinet.

Yue Tinggu said: "Mr. Rongsu is guarding Yuanlu, and Marquis Anjing is guarding Changyuan. How did the Shage tribe rush to the Guta Gobi to kill people? They didn't realize it at all? Today they can enter the Guta Gobi, and tomorrow Did no one find it all the way from the Northwest Grain Road to Jiangdong?"

"The people from Northern Xinjiang have not yet crossed the border, and the marriage team has left the border again. Yubei and Lingxi have nothing to do." Xing Ye raised his voice, as if he had a different opinion, "After such a disturbance, the Shage people killed Prince Chinu. They can solve it on their own, and the most important thing right now is to find Her Highness the Eldest Princess."

Shen Lin echoed: "The life and death of His Royal Highness is unknown, we can't let him wander outside, we have to find him back to the palace earlier. However, once this incident happens, Lingxi and Yubei should make plans early, so as not to catch people off guard .”

The two have the same purpose.

Everyone knew why they were in such a hurry to find the eldest princess.

"That's right." Xing Ye nodded and looked at Ge Tongqian, "This time, Duke Rongsu and Marquis Anjing both mentioned military pay and food, and the Ministry of Households delayed it for several months last year. Ge Shangshu, when he checked the accounts last year, he found that the treasury was still full. Why can't you get the silver?"

The two of them sang together as if they were in harmony, and pointed their finger at Hubu.

Ge Tongqian's generous palms were sweating, and he still had a smile on his face. He said, "Although the national treasury has not yet bottomed out, you must keep some emergency reserves, right? Otherwise, when you need to use it again, won't your hands be empty?"

Su Jinhuai also glanced at Ge Tongqian with a pair of heavy old eyes, and said: "Northern Xinjiang is restless, taboo is right, both Lingxi and Yubei should be vigilant, and the military pay that should be paid cannot be checked. If the household department has no more money, You don't have to do it as a Shangshu."

He said something serious, and Ge Tongqian's face immediately changed, so he had to agree.

Lu Zuoxian smoothed things over, "You should do this today first, and watch the movement in Beijiang before making any plans."

Everyone had their own thoughts, the discussion broke up, and Xing Ye and Su Jinhuai left Chengming Pavilion together.

Xing Ye only felt that Su Jinhuai was acting weird recently, and he never mentioned how to find the eldest princess from the beginning to the end, so he quickly chased after him and asked, "Su Gong, Your Highness the eldest princess has not returned to the palace yet, so finding her is the most urgent task."

Su Jinhuai's complexion remained the same, he was a little stooped, and the spring was almost over, he still coughed from time to time, covered his lips and coughed twice, and then said: "Aren't Lingxi and Yubei both looking for them? Her Royal Highness said that life and death are unknown, so I'm afraid it's more dangerous than good."

Xing Ye was a little anxious, frowned and said: "But if Your Majesty really has no heir, the Ming family will not be without an offspring. Only His Royal Highness the eldest princess can give birth to a child with Ming's blood!"

Su Jinhuai didn't answer any more, but got into the carriage of the Su residence with some difficulty, and left four words before leaving: "Resign yourself to fate. Xing Ye stood at the same place and watched the carriage of the Su residence going away, his face was dark and unclear.

What is resignation to fate? If he, Su Jiyuan, really believed in destiny, why did he stir up trouble in the muddy waters of Yijing?

Xing Ye thought to himself, what the hell is he hiding?
