After I die, my wife becomes a tyrant

The carriage stopped outside the Great Inner Hall, and after getting off the carriage, Ye Qiufeng followed Hua Muyu and walked straight in.

Hua Muyu paused, the inner hall was the place where she dealt with state affairs, after the age of 15, the inner hall was the place where she stayed the longest.

Except during the five-day period, you have to go to the early court to listen to the government first. At other times, you come at sunrise and leave late at night, without a day's interruption.

Ye Qiufeng has never been to the inner hall, and after this year, the time "accompanying" him in this inner hall will exceed the time Ye Qiufeng spent with him when he was young.

"What are you still doing?"

"Well," Ye Qiufeng turned his head quickly:

"It's not that visiting the Flower House hurt your heart. I decided to serve you on the saddle and horseback, so as to atone for my sin."

After finishing speaking, she stood beside Xing'er, holding the saber in her arms, posing as a bodyguard.

Xing'er glared at her, but Ye Qiufeng just pretended not to notice, you doggy leg, you will punish you sooner or later.

Hua Muyu sneered and walked in.

There were hundreds of certificates of affairs piled up on Zhu's case, and from time to time, Yuanwailang from the five prisons, six departments and nine temples came in and out, and put the certificates of affairs on Zhu's case.

Ye Qiufeng was surprised that Jian Guo was so busy.

After Hua Muyu sat at the Zhu case, he picked up a pen to deal with the matter. The five attendants stood on the side of the Zhu case, and Xing'er stood lightly at the entrance of the inner hall, waiting for orders at any time. sound.

Curious about the content of the event, Ye Qiufeng walked quietly to the side and craned his neck to read.

[Taifu Temple’s ultimatum said: In the 11st year of Baozheng’s total treasury annual Fu, 320 million taels of gold for the money class, 50 taels of gold for the salt class, and 400 million stones for the grain class. 】

[Pay tribute to Shangguo in the Central Plains: 30 taels of gold and 50 stones of grain per year. 】

[Military expenditures, one million taels of gold and 50 shi of grain per year. 】

……

[Baozheng twenty-two years, the third day of October, the remaining treasury: 12 taels of gold. 】

Hua Muyu didn't notice that Ye Qiufeng was peeping, and many of the things presented from inside and outside were requests for funding for projects, such as the Metropolitan Water Supervision.

Because the country of Yue is near the sea and has many mountains, typhoons often come ashore and ravage, heavy rain floods, and mountains collapse. Therefore, it is often necessary to allocate funds to manage river canals, Jinliang, and dikes.

The high military expenditure and the tribute to the Central Plains, my father is also obsessed with Taoism and Buddhism, and has been building Taoist temples and Buddhist temples all year round, and the finances have been tight.

However, the food class is relatively stable, with 400 million shi a year, so as to stabilize the price of food and avoid famine in case of natural disasters, man-made disasters or wars.

Ye Qiufeng thought to himself, how could she hold on like supervising the country and assisting the government day after day? No wonder she is so irritable. No, it seems that she is only irritable with herself?I have never seen her lose her temper with others.

That Xing'er twittered all day long, making noise to death, and Hua Muyu has never seen Hua Muyu be fiercer than her, if she was herself, she would have been so annoyed that she would have kicked her away.

She shouldn't be called Xing'er, she should be called Que'er.

Seemingly having found the reason for his domestic violence, Ye Qiufeng relaxed his vigilance about being beaten a little.

She gave an order to the servant in a low voice, and asked the servant to send the head secretary of Dali Temple to bring over the case files from the past year.

Then he quietly sat beside Hua Muyu.

It was only then that Hua Muyu noticed something strange beside her, and the next moment she raised her eyes to glance at her, she slapped Ye Qiufeng on the back of the head.

"Hiss," Ye Qiufeng was caught off guard, and subconsciously raised his hand to hold her hand:

"Everyone is an adult, not a child, so stop beating."

"Let go." Hua Muyu exuded an icy aura.

Ye Qiufeng tentatively let go, but she made a gesture to hit her again, and hastily tightened her grip again:

"I let go, don't hit me."

"If you dare to let go, I dare to fight."

"Then, then I won't let go."

After finishing speaking, Ye Qiufeng clasped his fingers tightly and locked her tightly. If she didn't let go, Hua Muyu would never let go.

Hua Muyu stared at her, tentatively withdrew his hand, but Ye Qiufeng only held it lightly, not to mention pulling out his hand, the tight grip was almost seamless.

Ye Qiufeng smiled triumphantly at her, Hua Muyu's face was gloomy.

"You are busy with your work, and I will also handle some cases in Dali Temple, so I won't bother you."

Hua Muyu lowered her eyes, she clasped her left hand tightly with her right hand, how to deal with the case?

Ye Qiufeng guessed her mind and lifted the brush with his left hand: "I can write with my left hand."

"My lord, I have something to do, please write it immediately."

While the two were arguing, there was a person standing in front of Zhu's case——

Wei Wei Siqing, thank you.

Xie Wang stared at Ye Qiufeng strangely.

The Yue Kingdom is only a small country, and the etiquette between the monarch and his subjects and the rank of officials and officials are not strictly observed.

It is normal for him not to be polite to himself.

Hua Muyu nodded and accepted the ultimatum.

During the review, Xie Wang smiled and dictated:

"Most of the 68 squares in Xifu were built after the founding of the People's Republic of China. It has been nearly 30 years, and many streets and streets are dilapidated. There are mobile vendors gathered in Nanshi and Beishi. The mobile vendors do not follow the rules and have no fixed selling points. Usually whoever comes here will occupy the hawking seats, and there will be quarrels or fist fights from time to time, so please approve [-] yuan for the repair of Workshop Street."

"Well, one hundred thousand..." That's too much.

"Under the mansion, there are more than 68 people living in the [-]th square of the West Mansion, which accounts for [-]% of the total population of the country, and the West Mansion is also the capital of the country, and it is the face of our country."

Xie Wang patiently lobbied with a smile, the head secretary of Dali Temple carried two large boxes to the inner hall.

Hua Muyu glanced at the box and asked casually:

"The old cases are closed, so why do you still seem to be doing it?"

Just as Ye Qiufeng was about to answer, he suddenly noticed a subtle change in Xie Wang's eyes.

Sensitivity cultivated in judging cases all the year round, coupled with the fact that the ministers of the DPRK and China are now suspected of committing crimes.

Ye Qiufeng couldn't ignore the subtle change, so he deliberately showed a frivolous and arrogant smile:

"Summing up the experience, the speed of solving the case will be faster in the future. This time, the case of killing the door in the East Mansion took only five days to solve the case, which is not as good as the level of my Dali Temple Sizhi."

After the words were finished, Ye Qiufeng caught Xie Wang's relaxed eyes with a trace of contempt in his peripheral vision.

Hua Muyu squinted her speechless and cold eyes, then turned her head away.

There are still two months before the end of the new year. In March of the next year, taxes from all over the country will be put into the treasury one after another. The Metropolitan Water Supervision is building water conservancy projects, and the national treasury can be said to be stretched:

"Wei Weiqing, let's repair the South City and the North City first, so that the itinerant vendors are in order. Submit the case again, and submit a detailed plan on how to maintain order, as well as the expenditure budget."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xie Wang bowed and saluted calmly, and when he turned around and was about to leave, Hua Muyu spoke again:

"Wei Weiqing, Wei Wei Temple is in charge of clearing roads, patrolling, and suppressing bans in all the squares and streets of the West Mansion. There are some rumors, please control them."

Xie Wang turned around, pondered for a while, then looked up at Ye Qiufeng:

"Dixia refers to... Xiao Yehou's romantic affair?"

"..." Ye Qiufeng almost choked on his own saliva.

"Rumours refer to untrue rumors. If there are more people who say it, people will believe it. If there are more people who believe it, the falsehood will become true."

"Please make it clear from the mansion." Xie Wang asked again.

"Treason is the first of the ten evils. Rumors that foreign relatives interfere in politics are accusing relevant officials of treason. This has constituted the crime of lying, and the crime is even death. Wei Weiqing must be able to distinguish what is rumor and what is evil."

"This..." Xie Wang showed a embarrassed smile, and glanced at Ye Qiufeng from time to time:

"The local people gossip after tea and dinner, and how can they control what they talk about. Moreover, the so-called foreign relatives interfere in politics, and the fact is that the king can clearly distinguish it."

Hua Muyu's voice was cold, full of aura as the suzerain of the country:

"If all the people in the neighborhood believe the rumors of demons and think that it is true that their relatives are interfering in politics, the people will panic, which will affect order and stability."

"Wu Yan chiseled out a white stone and said, 'The Holy Mother's presence, Yongchang Emperor's career', borrowing demon words, overthrew Li Tang and established Wu Zhou."

"Gao Ying, the famous founding general of the Great Sui Dynasty, was benevolent, righteous and gentle, and had always won the hearts of generals, but he was trapped by evil words and had to be given death to reassure the people. The lessons learned from the past are still in our ears. I will not allow loyal ministers to be harmed by evil words and fall into a passive situation. .”

"The words of the mansion are serious," Xie Wang chuckled, "The people in the neighborhood have the leisure to care about the rumors in the palace, which is a sign that the country is peaceful and the people live and work in peace and contentment. If it's just chatting..."

"There is nothing wrong with idle talk, but demonic talk has already touched the law," Hua Muyu paused, frowning to show his impatience, and continued:

"Wei Weiqing made several resignations. Could it be that he thinks that he is not capable enough to deal with it? If so, then this Wei Wei Siqing should be appointed by someone who is capable."

Xie Wang hurriedly bowed: "No, no, I will deal with it properly."

As soon as the person left, Hua Muyu called a servant, wrote a statement of affairs, and handed it over:

"Submit it to the deputy general of the Yijin Army Capital, order 68 troops, synchronize with the Weiwei Temple, and patrol the [-] squares of the West Mansion. There is no need to use punishment. Daoming rumors that foreign relatives intervene in politics are a crime of lying, and the crime can be executed."

"Yes, my lord." The envoy took the ultimatum and left in a hurry.

When she came back to her senses, Hua Muyu's left hand was clenched from time to time, she lowered her eyes to look at the hand that was clasped with ten fingers, and then raised her eyes, Ye Qiufeng was looking at her with a smile.

"You're not protecting me, are you?"

Hua Muyu narrowed his eyes coldly: "Thinking too much, the crime of gossip should be punished, so as not to panic people and impact the national policy."

"Okay, then I'd better go, lest my relatives be involved in politics again."

Ye Qiufeng stood up, and as soon as he let go of his hand, Hua Muyu subconsciously clenched it tightly. Before Ye Qiufeng could react, she urgently sought compensation to cover up:

"Where are you going? Visiting flower houses? Do you want to taste what it's like to have a hundred imperial staffs?"

"..."

Hearing these words, my whole body hurts, forget it, let's not go.

The two of them were busy with their own tasks, their minds gradually fell on their respective important tasks, and they clasped their hands tightly from time to time, without noticing it.

It was night, just after midnight (0 o'clock).

Taking advantage of the dark moon and high wind, Ye Qiufeng groped his way to Puningfang, where Xie Wang's private residence was located, wearing black clothes and covering his face.

She jumped up and sneaked into the mansion secretly under the cover of garden flowers and plants.

The mansion is very large and imposing. Thirty houses are built in six parallel rows, and there are spacious courtyards between the rows.

Ye Qiufeng lurked and walked around row by row, until he reached the backyard, he heard the laughter of warblers and swallows wafting from a certain dimly lit house.

Not long after approaching, he caught a strange light fragrance, which was the smell of burning spiritual grass.

"The young master is too powerful, the concubine can't bear it."

"It's too late to take it anymore, my young master hasn't enjoyed himself to the fullest yet."

In the house, there was a faint sound of intoxicated, dreaming and dying. Ye Qiufeng quietly approached the window. Through the thin window cracks, a more intense fragrance wafted out. Through the window, one could see the bed with a bed curtain, bursting into the air. shaking.

"Who is trespassing!"

With a sudden shout, Ye Qiufeng was startled and subconsciously ran towards the backyard. There was a sound of hot pursuit behind her, and she jumped onto the high wall.

In the darkness, there was an even darker sharp object that pierced the air and made a "swoosh" sound. Ye Qiufeng dodged sharply to avoid it, but a wave of warmth gushed out from his arm.

Before she had time to check her arm, she jumped off the high wall and galloped to the side of the alley with the windy footsteps.

After a black shadow passed by quickly, he turned and left this dangerous place in the opposite direction.

Jingcheng Palace, Ye Qiufeng took off his black clothes, only to see that his right arm was injured by a flying knife, the wound was nearly half an inch (2cm) deep, almost to the bone.

How can an ordinary domestic servant react so quickly?

If he could use such a vicious move, if he didn't dodge in time, with the power of this flying blade, it would be no problem for the entire flying blade to sink into the flesh and blood.

assassin.

Inside the palace, several armies in brocade patrolled day and night. In the same palace, within a quarter (15 minutes), there were three armies in brocades passing by. This shows the strict security and the insecurity of the ruler.

Ye Qiufeng was wearing the crimson official uniform of the recruitment envoy, and those who ate the spirit grass would be stained with the fragrance of the spirit grass when it burned, and Ye Qiufeng would engrave that smell into his sense of smell.

The arm was seriously injured by the assassin, which showed one thing - there was more than one killer.

Coupled with the fact that the killer was related to the courtiers, she was very worried that there were assassins lurking in the palace.

While walking around the palace to find out the situation, they had already reached the inner hall, which was under curfew, and it was pitch black inside, presumably the same was true for the inner hall, which meant that Hua Muyu had left the inner hall.

Further north is the Jingling Palace. When thinking about it, the sensitive fragrance passed by inadvertently. She raised her eyes subconsciously and quickly looked around.

There was no one else around except for the patrolling Yi Jinjun just passing by.

She hurried to catch up with Yi Jinjun and sniffed them, but there was no fragrance on them.

After calmly judging for a moment, the inner hall was facing south, and the scent passed by, indicating that the assassin should have walked on the roof of the palace and disappeared from south to north.

Nervous, she walked quickly to the north until she traced to the front of Jingling Palace, but she did not catch the fragrance again.

Am I being followed, or... Assassins often sneak into the palace, just passing by by chance?

Hua Muyu was followed by more than a dozen well-dressed military generals. As soon as he returned to the vicinity of the bedroom, he saw Ye Qiufeng standing outside, looking left and right.

As she got closer, she immediately saw Ye Qiufeng wearing a crimson official robe, with a dark mark on his right arm.

"Husband, why are you here so late?" Hua Muyu asked calmly, and beckoned his followers to retreat.

Ye Qiufeng came back to his senses upon hearing the sound, and before he could speak, Hua Muyu pulled him into the side hall and closed the door.

"How did you get hurt?"

After making a low voice, Hua Muyu raised her hand, and took off her robe from her collar. Blood was still oozing from her arm, and the wound was extremely deep. It looked like it was from the hands of a vicious person.

The case of extermination of the family that was hastily closed in five days, she already felt that the case was closed too sloppily, but when she heard her mentioning the case in the inner hall today, she was so complacent that she thought she was acting superficially.

Now, it can be guessed that she is probably still investigating secretly, staying in the West Mansion, which means that the murderer may be in the West Mansion, and she is secretly investigating to avoid panic.

Ye Qiufeng was a little panicked when he smelled the drug addict killer in the palace, fearing that there might be dangers around Hua Muyu, his mind was tied up, and he didn't respond to the inquiry, so he blurted out:

"We've been married for five years, why didn't you call me? Everyone thinks that you and I don't get along, that's not okay."

"..."

Hua Muyu was caught off guard by the question, and his anger was ignited. He raised his hand and pinched her ears, and even twisted them twice.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?"

"Shameless! Get out!"

With quick hands and feet, Hua Muyu grabbed her ear and carried her to the door, kicked her out with one kick, and slammed the door shut.

Ye Qiufeng rubbed his ears aggrievedly outside, and his hands were too ruthless, his ears were almost twisted off.

……

Xing'er was busy going back and forth inside and outside the bedroom, serving her master to wash up.

Hua Muyu was full of complicated emotions, not angry, but she couldn't tell what kind of emotion it was, which made people panic.

That's right, I've been married for five years, and I've never called her, but what can I do if I call her?

The regular exam is over, and she is still staying in Xifu, which shows that she really has something to do.

Calling can at least quell the rumors in the market?It's not easy to calm down, she was blocked by San Bailang in the flower building, once the news spread, those flower buildings would not dare to let her in again, this is the purpose of her leading troops to surround her.

If she asks her heart, she has no interest in power and state supervision. What she wants most is the ordinary daily life of practicing literature and martial arts with Ye Qiufeng when she was a child, and having fun while suffering.

That daily life was very ordinary, and nothing unforgettable happened, but she liked it because it was ordinary, relaxed, and happy, and not as tormenting as it is now.

After pondering over and over in my heart for a while, although Xuanzhao is called to sleep, but I can also chat or something. Thinking about it this way, the shame and other worries are gone.

"Xing'er, Ming'er, Xuanzhao Xiaoyehou."

"What?!" Myolie's jaw dropped in shock:

"Xuan Zhao? Your Majesty, don't you hate Xiao Yehou very much?"

"???" Hua Muyu was stunned:

"When did I say I hated her?"

Xing'er was even more shocked: "You have written all over your body, you hate it."

"Isn't it annoying to take care of the family law as soon as we meet? Isn't that annoying when the younger one commits a crime and speaks out to teach him for you, and you agree with it?"

"When he touched you, the little one wiped your hands with a dozen handkerchiefs, and you frowned, isn't that annoying?"

"You don't care about him visiting the flower building, and you don't even care about the rumors about Xiao Ye Hou Menglang and Fengliu, and you led troops to surround the flower building, and you brought three hundred. It's not annoying to make him lose face so much. ?”

"I thought that you were paving the way for Heli, but you were worried that after Heli, you would have a rift with Mrs. Ye, and Mrs. Ye holds the military power..."

Xing'er croaked a lot before she suddenly realized and asked the main point:

"You don't hate Xiao Yehou?"

Hua Muyu didn't speak.

Xing'er was surprised, and asked more bluntly:

"You, like Xiaoyehou?"

Hua Muyu raised her eyes and glanced at Xing'er:

"What are you talking about, just... just don't hate it."

……

Once every five days in the morning, I could only wait. Ye Qiufeng looked at the old case files of Dali Temple for another day. There were not many murder cases, only more than ten cases a year, and there were no suspicious murder cases. Suddenly, a murder case appeared. And spirit grass...

There was no spiritual grass before, it seems that the spiritual grass only appeared after I set up a shipbuilding supervisor in Juzhang in March.

I also checked the information of the merchants from the Ministry of Households, and found out who purchased the spirit grass. Only then did I realize that there is a lack of detailed supervision on maritime trade, and there is no way to find out the seller, let alone the buyer.

Lingcao bypasses supervision and circulates secretly, and this thing is very profitable.

After analyzing the few clues, Ye Qiufeng wrote a county administrative notice, ordering Yijin Junlang to send his horse to Juzhang County.

[From the next year (the 13st year of Baozheng), taxation will be collected from merchants, one out of sixty (1.5%), and a maritime trade department will be set up to specifically supervise maritime trade, and the details of the Liang Nanling Shaoling will be lifted. Judge. 】

The implication is, don't check it, it's dangerous.

In the Jingcheng Palace at night, it is rare to have dinner with my father and mother.

Before they could chat a few words, Hua Muyu's personal attendant, Xing'er, came over with staring eyes.

"Xiao Yehou, the mansion is calling."

"Pfft!" The whole family of three sprayed their rice.

Ye Qiufeng walked anxiously with Xing'er to Jingling Palace, probably because she was used to hating being alone, Xing'er chattered about Ye Qiufeng.

"Diexia will not sleep well tonight, and loves to visit flower houses, so I don't know if he is infected with the flower|willow disease."

"You have the flower willow disease, you have the apricot disease."

Xing'er believes in her heart that Hua Muyu hates her very much, and Xuan Zhao can't say that she doesn't hate her.

Ye Qiufeng came to Jingling Palace in a hurry, thinking that she must be trying to reverse the rumors, it is a state matter, um.

Hua Muyu wasn't cramped, anyway, she was just asking her to put on a show.

Just about to say "you go to sleep in the side hall", the nightmare of the two, the accompanying maid unexpectedly came, and as soon as she entered, she closed the door and stood there respectfully.

The two of them looked at each other, and actually forgot about the maidservant.

Ye Qiufeng asked in disbelief: "Do you want to accompany me every time?"

The accompanying maid nodded: "I will accompany you whenever you are called."

"Go down, I don't need you to accompany me." Hua Muyu's scalp was numb.

The accompanying maid was unmoved, and said: "My lord, the suzerain's affairs, big and small, public and private, must be recorded by the palace supervisor, and the etiquette is even more important. If it is not recorded, otherwise the pregnancy will not be known. out."

"..."

Ye Qiufeng's scalp was so embarrassing that it went numb, she walked quietly to the bed, turned sideways, looked at Hua Muyu awkwardly, and asked with a breathing sound:

"You do not know?"

Hua Muyu also breathed and mouthed: "If you know, you won't call."

So embarrassing, why so embarrassing.
