The peace talks have become more and more serious in Beijing.
Since Xiao Ye was angry, he had the taxi named weng'ang beaten. It was like poking a hornet's nest. There were many criticisms not only in the market, but also in the scholars. Originally, the issue of making peace with Tatar was not agreed by half of the people in the government and the public. As soon as it happened, someone immediately brought up the old story again, which put great pressure on Xiao.
For one time, Weng ang sued, and for another, the Yamen came to investigate.
Not to mention that there is a Xiao Dingfei at home who is afraid that the world will not be in chaos.
Up to Xiao Yuan, Xiao Shu, down to the servant housekeeper, the first time was tossed into such a mess.
After all, although Xiao Shu was appointed as the head of the county, there was no precedent for the head of the county to make peace with his relatives in this dynasty. Although Xiao Shu was in chaos, he was not afraid.
But I didn't think about it. A few days ago, the situation suddenly worsened.
Xiao is the leading family in Beijing. He has a deep foundation and a wide shade. He is very arrogant. He has done a lot of things to bully the common people and betray officials. It's not that there are no complaints against them. But they are all suppressed by Xiao's big hand. For some reason, many of them have lost their voice, and Xiao has not been damaged.
Recently, these things and these people have resurfaced.
Some of the old stories are brought up again, and notices are posted everywhere in Beijing; some of them beat drums to complain, and directly sue the Yamen for justice; some of them directly ask the scholars to write a joint letter, intending to go to heaven to listen
What's more terrible is that some of Xiao's secret things were discovered and spread to the public, which attracted many people's horror and criticism!
"Ganzhou disaster relief food from top to bottom is only a few people know, how can it spread to the outside?" Xiao Yuan, who had just heard the news from his subordinates, was furious. His face was completely black, and he slapped his palm on the table, shaking off the expensive inkstone and pen mountain. "Is it that those people fell into the well at the beginning..."
Ganzhou's embezzlement of grain for disaster relief was three years ago.
When the investigation came down, the whole Ganzhou officialdom was cleaned up, and more than 60 people were chopped down after autumn.
However, few people know that these people who were beheaded are not innocent, but the real black hand, the Xiao family in the capital, is safe and sound! Most of the relief food money was turned in layer upon layer, and finally fell into Xiao's pocket!
In those days, those who knew about it were either senior officials in the imperial court, or they had become the souls of the underworld.
Who's going to bring it up again?
Who can bring it up again?!
Those old enemies of Xiao's family, who had formed a grudge, all went through it one by one in Xiao Shu's mind, but they had no clue: "we secretly, as an opponent, don't want Princess LeYang to make peace with us, but also want to aim at us. What's more, it seems that the other party has been dormant for a long time, and has collected a lot of tricks from us secretly. This time, it's obvious that we want to carry water It's not going to make us feel better. "
To have this heart, but also have this ability?
Xiao Yuan held back his subordinates. His face changed. He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "I always feel that the attitude of the emperor has been strange since he got rid of the house of marquis Yongyi. Especially after the evil son came back, people could not see the holy things clearly. "
Xiao Dingfei came back, almost everywhere against Xiao, to Xiao embarrassed.
But the emperor was standing on Xiao Dingfei's side.
After all, on the surface, Xiao Dingfei was the emperor's savior. Who was the emperor on his side?
But this time on the market for so long, even put forward to let Xiao Shu instead of the princess to make peace with this absurd idea, as the emperor Shen Lang never scolded, but ignored.
He never supported it, but he didn't oppose it.
How many weeds are there in the court?
If the emperor doesn't make a statement, he will not get involved.
In addition, those who had already had opinions on Xiao were naturally encouraged to take this opportunity to expand the battlefield, become more arrogant and rude, and vowed to pull Xiao into the water.
After listening to Xiao Yuan's words, Xiao Shu felt more and more heavy in her heart, and said, "I'll see the Empress Dowager another day. But now, no matter who the secret opponents are or who they are, things are all about making peace with each other. The talk of pushing me to replace Shen Zhiyi is rampant, and they must not be allowed to succeed. "
She was born with dignity.
In the world, only the queen of the sixth palace is worthy of her.
Making peace with Tatars?
Dream!
Xiao Yuan was surprised: "do you have a way?"
*
although there has been a lot of uproar over the recommendation of Xiao Shu to take the place of Princess LeYang to make peace with her, many high-ranking families in Beijing who have their daughters of the right age have not paid attention to it at all, and even have some schadenfreude.
After all, Xiao is one of the most popular candidates for Linzi.
The reputation of Jiang Xuehui, the eldest lady of Jiang Shilang's house, was also affected by Jiang Xuening's work in Shuxiang Inn a while ago, which was not pleasant to hear.
Who let her and her two go out of the same house?When a big family marries, it is said that everything depends on the family situation. If any sister has a bad reputation, all the other sisters in the same family will be affected. It is rare to get married carelessly.
Everyone said that Jiang Xuehui was unlucky for her sister Jiang Xuening.
Meng had a good sulk at home.
Fortunately, this matter passed for a while, and it didn't make much noise. It was soon covered by the discussion with relatives.
But unexpectedly, just one day later, the more turbulent rumors hit Jiang Fu like a storm!
"Well, have you heard? The young lady of Jiang's house is not very decent. "
"I know. It's with Mr. Zhang Zha, isn't it? It's said that he chased out in full view of the public. I don't even want to be shameful... "
"More than that!"
"It's said that even the prince Jiang Shizi has no idea what she's going to do with the country."
"How can these two have an affair?"
"Is that what you don't know? At the end of last year, my brother was a soldier in Tongzhou. We can see clearly that the second young lady of Jiang's mansion was mixed up with a group of fugitives and big men. Oh, it must be the son of a noble family. Don't you know? Come and go, don't you hook up with me? At that time, Mr. Zhang was also there. Tut Tut, it was amazing... "
"It's indecent!"
……
There were all kinds of stories in the streets and lanes for a while. The incident of Tianjiao Rebellion's prison break was a big one in the capital. A daughter's family was trapped in this situation, which aroused countless people's curiosity and added fuel to the story. It was said that one had nose and eyes.
When Meng went out, he heard it by chance. He was so angry that he almost lost his breath.
Until this time, she vaguely understood what Jiang Xuening's words "this is just the beginning" meant when Shuxiang Inn had an accident. As soon as she got back to Jiang's house, she would sink her face and invite Jiang Boyou to come here first, and then ask someone to call Jiang Xuehui and Jiang Xuening.
Knowing that Jiang Xuening was not very obedient, he added with a cold face: "take the boy with you. If she doesn't come, she will bring it to me! At such a young age, it's just enough to ruin one's reputation. At this critical moment, one has to implicate one's sister! What a face
But I didn't expect that the means didn't work.
Jiang Xuening was ready early. When the people came, she went with a smile on her face.
Jiang Xuehui's candidacy for Linzi princess was the most important event in Jiang's family recently.
Even Jiang Boyou is very interested.
After all, Jiang Xuehui seems to be in favor of Shen Li. Before that, she saved Wen Zhaoyi who was pregnant in the imperial garden. She was appreciated by a noble person in the palace. It can be said that the time, the place and the people are harmonious, so it's almost done.
But at this juncture, Jiang Xuening's involvement in Tianjiao's prison break and his exile to TongZhou last year was revealed!
When Jiang Xuening came, Meng smashed the tea cup out and trembled with anger: "look what good you've done! I also learned it well after you entered the palace. I didn't expect that your temperament would not change, even worse! "
The angry man lost his mark, and Jiang Xuening avoided it easily.
She glanced at Jiang Xuehui, who was sitting next to her, but she was so busy that she spared the fragments of the teacup on the ground and bowed to Jiang Bo and said, "I've met my father."
Jiang Boyou is a big girl with two heads. With a sigh, he asked people to persuade Meng first, and Jiang Xuening to sit down first. Then he said, "Tianjiao's prison break and TongZhou incident are already happened, and it's not Ning's own control. What's the use of blaming her now? It's not worth the trouble, it's not worth the trouble. "
Meng sneered: "don't you blame her?"
Jiang Xuehui sighed softly and said, "mother, it's urgent to think about how to deal with it."
Jiang Xuening sat on the chair beside him as if he had no bones. He was busy picking his nails and echoed with a lazy look: "well, there's something wrong. Can you just put me back in my womb when it doesn't happen? The people behind your back want you to kill me together. "
"Meng said:" Yin Yang Qi, you still have no dignity
Jiang Xuening is very honest: "No."
Jiang Boyou finally couldn't bear it. He sank his face and said angrily, "enough of the noise! Don't you think things are chaotic enough? "
This time, the house finally quieted down.
Jiang Boyou heard the clue of Jiang Xuening's words just now, and directly asked: "what does Ning mean when she says someone is scheming behind her back?"
Jiang Xuening narrowed her eyes and laughed: "it's obvious that the cause of this is not me, but my sister. Last year, the imperial concubine of zizhao wanted to see wendali's son. My father is in court. Should I see more of this? This time, it was the daughter who was implicated by her sister, but it turned out to be the daughter. It's funny. "
Meng was stunned.
Although Jiang Xuehui didn't say much, she could see clearly and nodded her head gently.Jiang Boyou is not without this idea.
On the surface, it's just an accident. It's Miss Ning's story of last year that has been turned out. But on a deeper level, it's Miss Hui who is about to run for the Linzi princess. On a deeper level, it's Miss Hui's biggest rival this time.
It's just an opponent
He frowned and did not speak for a long time.
Jiang Xuening rarely has a kind of expectation and pleasure that will soon come true: Nowadays, the discussion of making peace with relatives in the capital is almost fueled by her hand; after the fall of the last Xiao family, Xie Wei once listed all the great crimes of Xiao family to the world, and she went to search for one or two flaws according to her plan, which can poke the pain of Xiao family; in the first battle of Tongzhou, Xiao's father and son led the army, Knowing her existence, the "smart man" will naturally think of it at the critical moment.
Now Xiao Shu should be very unhappy, right?
She took a look at Jiang Boyou and added a strong ingredient to his already deep doubt: "who is the biggest beneficiary is the black hand in the dark. All the people in Beijing are talking about the replacement of Princess Chang by Xiao Shu. If Xiao Shu doesn't want to go, the easiest way is to marry her. His Royal Highness the king of Linzi is a talented man with a bright future. Isn't it the best choice? If his royal highness of Linzi chooses her as his concubine, then the emperor has shaken his mind, and it's not good to take his brother's future wife and send her to make peace with him, right? So she is determined to win the throne of Linzi princess. "
The essence of the calculation is that Xiao has lost his temper and has been forced to the end of the mountain by the discussion between Beijing Zhonghe and his relatives.
Meng had never thought so deeply before, but now he suddenly realized.
Jiang Xuehui dropped her eyes and did not speak.
Jiang Boyou looked at his second daughter, who was wearing a sarcastic smile on his lips. He didn't ask if she was behind the fire. He just said, "the arrow is on the string. Xiao's bullying is too much. How can we let Jiang's house rub it?"
On the second day, Jiang Shilang, who had always been a good official, presented a memorial to the court, asking to re investigate the case of Ganzhou disaster relief three years ago, and supporting Xiao Shu to marry Tatar instead of the eldest princess!
The government and the public are shaking and talking.
When the news reached shijingzhong, Jiang Xuening was leaning against the window on the second floor, listening to the famous actor singing with Xiao Dingfei.
Xiao Dingfei worked as a cow and horse for her. He was willing to peel a plate of melon seeds for her without dignity and put them on her hand. However, he couldn't help asking curiously, "how do you know about the Ganzhou disaster relief case?"
Jiang Xuening rolled a white eye: "do your shit."
Xiao Dingfei
I've been learning rough language with him for a long time. Why?
He frowned: "you are a girl."
Jiang Xuening hissed and brought the melon seeds to him. He grabbed them and threw them up. He caught them with his mouth open. He could not see the gentleness and gentleness of a lady.
But it's so reckless
Xiao Shengchi's hands quietly gathered together to watch the salad.
Jiang Xuening gently slapped him on the face, pick eyebrows: "looking for death?"
Xiao Dingfei covered his face and was wronged: "I've just helped you with so many things. Don't I even have any rewards?"
Jiang Xuening pushed the plate of melon seeds: "here you are?"
Xiao Dingfei
Isn't this my mother's skin?
He was angry, but he watched Jiang Xuening take back the plate of melon seeds again. He grabbed it in his hand and stood by the window to look down with her.
It's a dream of sorghum.
It's weird and sad.
Xiao Dingfei looked at her for a while, then suddenly looked at her for a long time and said, "do you really just want to save the princess from the cage?"
Jiang Xuening grabbed the finger of a melon seed and stopped for a moment. He seemed to think that his question was strange. He looked back at him: "otherwise?"
Xiao Dingfei did not speak.
Of course, he is a straw bag, but when he was a child, he saw other people's faces, and observed other people's secret feelings, but he developed a good skill.
After a long time, he gave a steep smile: "I'm just thinking, do you think the princess is looking at herself?"
