Chapter 325: fool

Chapter 325 Fool

The imperial court opened the seal on the seventh day of the first lunar month, and half a month has passed.

Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival. Today is an unprecedented day in the imperial court. The emperor woke up early and recruited a few ministers to the East Nuan Pavilion to inquire about state affairs. Right now, apart from the disasters in various places, the most disturbing thing is the immediate This plague.

As the chief dispatcher, Xie Tiao was naturally also among the close ministers. Apart from Yiwu Hou Hong Jizhong, Huaiyuan Hou Han Zhen, and the Minister of the Household Department Shen Tingyang, he also met with him.

Hong Jizhong said, "Speaking of which, Mrs. Xie really raised two good granddaughters. Mrs. Xie is now fighting the epidemic in Juzhou City under the alias of the third young master of the Cui family. No. However, this granddaughter is quite capable, and she set up a charity foundation in the capital, calling for donations, and raised a total of more than two hundred thousand taels of silver.

Xie Tiao slammed her head on the ground, "Your Majesty, I only have one granddaughter. After all, my granddaughter is from someone else's family. Although this granddaughter of yours is limited in ability, please read to the Emperor that she also volunteered to join her at the beginning, and she was not afraid of life and death. Juzhou City, forgive her for her innocence!"

The emperor's complexion was ugly, his eyes were heavy, pressing down on Xie Tiao's body like a mountain. Xie Tiao could feel the heaviness, but he still persisted, unwavering. Even though his granddaughter has limited medical skills, she has a heart for the people of Dayong. Is this wrong?

"Your Majesty, my granddaughter will only be eleven years old tomorrow. She spends her days searching for the source of the epidemic in Juzhou City. She only sleeps for less than two hours a day. She grew up in the palm of my hand. Even if she can't quell this epidemic, she shouldn't be guilty!"

Xie Tiao is already a veteran of the three dynasties. The number one scholar in the early years of the first emperor, he has been invading the officialdom for many years, and he has already been favored and humiliated.

Lu Yan handed a cup of tea to the emperor, and said with a smile, "Not only Master Xie has a good granddaughter, but Marquis Yiwu also raised a good daughter. Miss Xue is the president of the foundation, and Miss Hong is the president of the foundation. The executive vice president of the foundation. This is really a precedent for Dayong. No non-governmental organization has ever been so eager for justice. No wonder people all over the capital say that the girls in the foundation are all Goddess of Mercy When I went down to earth, I automatically sealed a few girls as Seven Fairies."

The emperor's chest rose and fell rapidly, Lu Yan pretended not to see it, and continued to laugh, "No wonder, the third son Cui said again and again in Juzhou City that they were sent by the imperial court, half a month has passed Well, the control of the epidemic has not yet made progress, and the common people have complaints, and they can only complain to the imperial court, who made the imperial court send so many imperial physicians, all of them are useless?"

The emperor held back his anger and said, "Seven fairies, which seven fairies?"

"Return to the emperor's words!" Lu Yan's eyes drooped slightly, and he moved to the emperor, bowed, and his wide sleeves hung down, showing that he was very respectful, "The head of the fairy is Miss Xue. I heard that she came down to earth as the Nine Heavens Xuannv. Next is Princess Huayang, next is Princess Huihe, next is Miss Hong, and after that is Second Miss Xue..."

Before Lu Yan finished speaking, the emperor slammed the table and said, "Enough!"

Here, the leader is actually a girl from the uncle's family who has been confiscated. It's no wonder that Xie Tiao couldn't wait to demote Xie Yuantao from a concubine to a concubine. Son, he is really not a law-abiding person.

The emperor couldn't help but sneered and said, "Hong Jizhong, did your daughter who went down to earth that day say, what is I? What are my daughters?"

He resisted the urge to kick Xie Tiao, gritted his teeth and said, "Xie Tiao, you really raised a good daughter, why didn't you burn the Xue family down with a fire back then? How is your granddaughter in your house?" How did you bring it up? How much hatred do you have for the Xue family, to raise a girl from the Xue family like this? Why didn't you see your girl from the Xie family jumping up and down?"

"Oh, that's right!" the emperor asked, "Ah Yan, is there a girl from the Xie family among the seven fairies?"

"If the emperor didn't mention it, I really didn't pay attention, but I really didn't." Lu Yan could not help but smile slightly, "Sibaozhai is also organizing donations, but they are all spontaneous. The Eldest Princess, at the head, donated some powder money in Sibaozhai, and the next day, the treasurer of Sibaozhai announced the account and handed it over to the household department."

Shen Tingyang hurriedly said, "Return to the emperor, Master Lu's words are indeed true, this is the ledger!"

Shen Tingyang took out the account book from his sleeve, raised his hands above his head, and presented it.

Lu Yan took the account book and handed it over to the emperor. The emperor took it over. He opened it and saw that on the account book, who donated how much was signed by himself. The names of his two daughters and three sons were all on the account book. I am very happy.

The emperor looked it over from the beginning to the end, and saw that some of them were the handprints of his own servants or maids, and they were all clearly written down one by one. Displeased, he asked, "Where is the fourth child? And Shu Ning, they have no money?"

Hong Jizhong didn't dare to speak, Lu Yan stood aside and said respectfully, "If you go back to the emperor, the Fourth Highness and the Second Princess donated to the Renai Foundation. It is the donations of the Fourth Highness and the Second Princess that are so big among the people. Charisma, I heard that for the past two days, Princess Shu Ning has been standing for the Charity Foundation.”

"What are you standing on?" the emperor asked, frowning, not understanding.

"Platform!" Lu Yan repeated, "I don't really understand the meaning of this, it is a new term from the Ren'ai Foundation. I figured it was probably Princess Shu Ning who endorsed the Ren'ai Foundation. Princess, when the common people see that the princess trusts the Charity Foundation so much, they will not doubt it."

This is fooling her by taking her daughter for a fool!

The emperor gasped, "Hong Jizhong, where is the account book of your daughter's charity foundation? Let me have a look!"

How could Hong Jizhong have it? He scolded Lu Yan in his heart, if it wasn't for this eunuch, he would definitely be able to drag County Lord Duanxian into the water this time, as long as the emperor was dissatisfied with Duanxian, Xiao Xun who followed him would naturally be involved.

Hong Jizhong was trembling, "Your Majesty, I asked my daughter to send over the ledger, but I don't have the Renai Foundation's ledger!"

"Arrange someone to fetch it!" The emperor said angrily.

Lu Yan made a gesture, and immediately a little **** went out.

About half an hour later, Luo Gang, the commander of Jin Yiwei, asked to see him, and the emperor let him in. He glanced at Hong Jizhong with fiery eyes, "Your majesty, I am incompetent, and have not obtained the account book of the Renai Foundation. The second princess Now, I dare not offend you!"

The third update!
