Chapter 891

After they had told them how to sort out the books, Tang county magistrate and Yang county magistrate took a pot of tea and sat down by the window. They opened the window and looked at the yard outside.

Lanterns were lit in the yard, and the hazy red light shone on the yard, which had a warm feeling.

Zhou Silang was playing cards in the yard with Wantian, Mingli and Daji. There were no other servants.

Tang Xian Ling breathed out a sigh of relief and said, "it's better for you to come here. You're not afraid to say anything beyond the ears of a third person."

"My sister-in-law has always been strict in managing the house. Isn't it safe at home?"

Tang county magistrate shook his head and sighed: "Huayang county is not as strange as Luojiang county. I always think it's strange recently. It's also possible that the case I'm investigating makes me think more. This year, there were seven spring banquets in Yizhou palace, all of which were spring outing banquets for talents from all over Sichuan. Lord Zhang was invited to attend almost every time."

Yang Heshu also sat a little straight and asked, "didn't he do it in the palace?"

County Magistrate Tang shook his head. "No, there are no women's dependents. They say it's a spring outing banquet, but it's more like a talent selection banquet. Everyone recites poems, eulogies and talks. You know, Lord Zhang likes talking. I've been there twice. They talk very well."

Yang Heshu was silent for a while. After a long time, he said, "this time I return to Beijing, your majesty," he lowered his voice and said, "the relationship between your majesty and the crown prince is getting more and more tense. My father said that your majesty even said the words of abolishing the crown prince at the court meeting."

Tang county gave him a headache and asked, "does the prince still have no children?"

Yang Heshu shook his head.

They were silent, so the king of Yizhou moved frequently recently. Is there also this reason?

Tangxian Ling glanced at the three children who were working hard and said, "let them sort it out. Let's copy it ourselves and leave it. We'll send it back to Beijing."

Yang Heshu asked, "to whom?"

Tang Xian Ling pondered for a moment and finally said, "give it to my father."

Yang Heshu nodded, "I've met Lord Wei. If it's true, he won't care. But my father... "

Tang county magistrate knew that Lord Yang was always slippery. I'm afraid he didn't like to touch the muddy water. He smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "it doesn't matter. Can Yang Shibo stay out of the water?"

Yang Heshu is the only legitimate son in his family, and he is still the best one. Lord Yang will not give up.

Tang Xianling smiled at the thought. Yang Heshu glanced at him, patted his hand and said, "when will you send your sister-in-law and nephew away? Can't you still leave people in Yizhou city? "

"I have to find an excuse not to attract people's attention," said Tang county's headache

Although he is only a small county magistrate, his family background is there. If anything happens in Yizhou City, he will think of inviting his family, so his family members will leave suddenly. Unless there is a reasonable excuse, it will really arouse suspicion.

Yang county magistrate thought for a moment and said, "otherwise, I'll ask Cui's next post to invite his sister-in-law and nephew to stay at home for a while, and then you'll ask the capital to send a letter to pick them up?"

County Magistrate Tang: "wait for disease? But my father is fine. "

His stepmother is too young to wait on her.

Yang county magistrate coughed and said, "where's your mother-in-law?"

County Magistrate Tang thought seriously and thought that although it was not very good, he still nodded, "I'll go back and discuss with her."

They whispered to discuss how to investigate the case next. They got the things twelve years ago, but what about the things twelve years later?

From the account books they just turned over, the king of Yizhou raised a lot of private soldiers 12 years ago and began to open mines and forge weapons without permission. It has been 12 years. How many are there now? Where are those soldiers and weapons?

Has he given up the rebellion, or is he waiting for the time?

All this needs to be checked.

When these were discussed, the third watch bell had sounded outside. Zhou sirang and his family had moved from the yard to the side room, sat on the threshold, surrounded by the stove guard, and were sleepy.

In the courtyard, Cui didn't sleep, but was waiting for Yang Heshu.

Hongxue handed the lamp in her hand to the servant, came in and whispered, "the lamp in the study is still on. Young master Bai and miss man didn't come out. They seem to be busy. Grandma, why don't you have a rest first."

Cui Shi was curious, "what are they doing?"

Hongxue shook her head, "but the maid heard that master Shan was a second-class student of the government school. This time they were recalled by the master to deal with official business. It should be business. "

Cui Shi knew something about government affairs. He shook his head and said, "it's not the time to serve. There's nothing unexpected. How can we call some students back to help?"

"But I think you may not come back tonight. Maybe you'll rest in the study. Granny, you'd better take a break first. Get up early tomorrow. Go and have a look, or quietly ask Miss man. "

Cui Shi can only nod.

After knocking on the third watch outside, county magistrate Yang looked at the three people who were already yawning and said, "OK, come here tonight and come back tomorrow morning."

Man Bao did not reluctantly put down his pen, got up, looked at the things on the table and asked, "what about the things?"

"Just keep it," said Yang Heshu, who was obsessed with cleanliness. The people he served in the house, especially near the study, were people he absolutely trusted, so he said, "Wantian and Mingli are not afraid."

Tang County order invited Yang Heshu, "hold a candle and talk at night?"

Yang Heshu nodded, "OK, I happen to have something to tell you."

It's the most confidential thing to say. It's not suitable to say it in front of three children.

Man Bao and Bai Shanbai Erlang leave.

Zhou sirang yawned and followed Daji. Seeing that he was not sleepy at all, he couldn't help muttering, "how did you do it?"

Daji smiled and said nothing.

Back in their guest house, man Bao wanted to enter his room. Bai Shan followed him. Bai Erlang saw him and crowded in. He had to turn around and go back to his room to sleep. On Thursday, Lang saw him and immediately crowded in. He stared at Bai Shan and Bai Erlang with a wary face. "Why do you come to my sister's room if you don't sleep at night?"

Bai Erlang looked at Bai Shan. "If you don't sleep at night, what are you whispering to her?"

Bai Shan:

He thought for a moment and turned to go out.

Bai Erlang grabbed him and said, "you have nothing to say, haven't you? I have something to say. I heard what Yang county magistrate said just now. It turns out that there are so many things here. It turns out that the king of Yizhou is not only greedy for Mo River workers' money, but also rebellious. What are you doing without me?"

Man Bao asked him curiously, "aren't you afraid?"

Bai Erlang looked puzzled, "what am I afraid of? It's not that I want to rebel."

He stared at them and asked, "what else are you hiding from me except this?"

Even the biggest secret rebellion was known by him. It seemed that there was no need to hide it from him. Man Bao said, "there's nothing else, just one more thing. I'm not my father's daughter..."

Bai Erlang looked frightened, then stared at Bai Shan and exclaimed, "no, are you two brothers and sisters? Aren't you going to be engaged? "

On the side of the Thursday Lang jumped and asked, "who's going to be engaged, who's going to be engaged?"? Make it clear, master Shan, did you say something to man Bao behind my back? "
