Chapter 658, temptation

Provincial Government, Yuan Family.

Madam Yuan helped Yuan Buzheng take off the official uniform, hesitated for a moment, and said: "I heard that the person in the Prince Yan’s Heping Mansion is closely related. The master just arrested the Yan Zhifu in this way. Will he offend that? Bit?"

Yuan Buzheng envoy looked indifferent: "In the eyes of local officials, Xiao Yeyang's status is considered precious, but behind our Yuan family, there are Concubine De concubine, the fifth prince, and the second princess. We still need to be afraid that he will not succeed?"

Mrs. Yuan: "You can't say that. It's a royal son after all. It's not easy to make trouble too stiff."

Envoy Yuan Buzheng snorted coldly: “I caught Yan Zhigao and acted according to the rules. He lost his rations, even if he went to the emperor, I am not afraid.”

Envoy Yuan Buzheng is not a person who listens to persuasion. Seeing what Madam Yuan seems to want to say, she suddenly became impatient.

"Okay, Xiao Yeyang has been away from Beijing for many years. Whether he is the Prince of Peace or the emperor, he can't get close, so don't worry about it here."

Then, he chuckled.

"Prince Ping was right before the Ma clan, and Xiao Yeyang didn't dare to return to Beijing to make trouble. It can be seen that he was a counselor. Such a person, even the royal family, should not be afraid."

"Didn’t he have a good relationship with the Yan family? I have arrested Yan Zhigao for a day, but he didn’t even have a personal image, and he didn’t send anyone to ask. In that way, I have a good relationship with the Yan family."

"Well, the collection of military rations these days has exhausted me. I will go to Aunt Shui tonight and relax."

After finishing speaking, she strode away without waiting for Mrs. Yuan to react.

Looking at her husband who was walking away, Mrs. Yuan frowned.

At this time, Yuan Zhilei came to the main courtyard and saw her mother sitting alone in a trance. She stepped forward and asked, "Mother, father went to Aunt Shui again?"

Ms. Yuan asked her daughter to sit down, and did not talk much about the concubine in the mansion. She had already looked down on her in recent years. The master is a good-looking man. Aunt Shui was just sent over by Jiang Shenzheng for a few months, which was the time when she was fresh.

"Are you here but something?"

Yuan Zhilei frowned. Although her mother did not answer, she already knew the answer, but as a daughter, she didn’t say much about her father’s room, so she said the purpose: "Mother, I heard someone say The eldest son of the Yan family asked to see his father several times, but he was turned away by his father. Isn't this too much?"

"Although the prefect Yan lost his rations, his guilt still has to be determined by the emperor. Moreover, prefect Yan has a good reputation among the people of Zhongzhou, and his father is so ruthless now that he is afraid that it will arouse criticism."

"Daughter really doesn't understand, why did the father do this?"

Mrs. Yuan sighed: "Your father is so temperamental. Our family will hold a reception banquet in February. All the officials in Zhongzhou are here. Only the prefect Yan is absent. Your father thinks that he didn't take the Yuan family in his eyes. Opportunity, you can't get angry."

"Come on again, the Yan family and Xiao Yeyang made a good relationship. When Xiao Yeyang was a child, he bullied the Fifth Prince in the palace. Once he beat the Fifth Prince on the bed for half a month. Your father always remembered this. ."

"Xiao Yeyang is the son of Prince Ping. Your father is not good at dealing with him directly, but the Yan family has no scruples."

“There is also that Jiang Shenzheng visited your father a few days ago, and mentioned that the prefect Yan discovered a kind of high-yield food, what is the name of the potato, this kind of great achievement for benefiting the country and the people, your father thought about it.”

"You also know that since the emperor was seriously injured when he was worshiping the ancestors, the princes who have entered the dynasty have competed fiercely. Your father wanted to offer potatoes to the five princes, and wanted to increase his prestige among the people."

Yuan Zhilei frowned as she heard it: "Mother, Jiang Shenzheng told her father about potatoes, obviously because of ulterior motives. In recent years, although our family and the Jiang family have said that the well water does not interfere with the river water, the Jiang family has absolutely no reason to help our family. , Especially now that the queen is still raising Ma Bin's son, the Jiang family does not want to see other princes outstanding, and the father must not be taken into the hands of Jiang Shenzheng."

Ms. Yuan was also worried: "You and I can see the problem, but your father didn't feel the slightest impropriety. Without the restraint of your grandfather and grandmother, he is more and more free."

"When the family decided to release your father outside, I was very worried, but your grandfather and grandmother decided everything at home, and my mother was helpless."

Yuan Zhilei suddenly stood up: "I think it was Aunt Shui who was chewing her tongue in her father's ear. My father was doing something wrong in his daily life, but it was not to the point of losing his sense at all. Jiang Shenzheng sent Aunt Shui over. It's really vicious with intentions."

Mrs. Yuan signaled her daughter Shaoan not to be impatient: “Okay, don’t worry. Fortunately, the Yan family has no foundation. If you catch it, you will be arrested. The emperor will not embarrass our family because of him.”

"I have already written to tell your grandfather and grandmother what happened here, and it won't be long before your grandfather will send an assistant to assist your father."

Yuan Zhilei nodded: "I hope my grandfather's staff will come soon."

Jiang’s house.

Jiang Canzheng squinted at the report at hand. After the men left, Mrs. Jiang walked over: "What is the master thinking?"

Jiang Shenzheng: "I am thinking about Xiao Yeyang."

Mrs. Jiang: "Huh?"

Jiang Canzheng didn't speak, he narrowed his eyes and thought.

The purpose of moving the Yan family this time was to vent her anger to her daughter. The eldest girl in the Yan family dared to seduce the people his daughter liked, and she was really impatient.

The second is to test Xiao Yeyang.

Father and eldest brother wrote several times asking him to test Xiao Yeyang, thinking that Xiao Yeyang was probably the Jin Lingwei who was specially appointed by the emperor to command Lord Xiao, but unfortunately, he hadn't inquired anything a few times before.

At the beginning of July, the Eight Kings failed to seize the city. It is said that it was because the Lord Xiao made a move and pulled out a lot of the Eight Kings.

Received this news, he planned the food grab incident.

From the standpoint of the Jiang family, he does not want the Northern Xinjiang rebellion to be put down too quickly. If the Eight Kings are eliminated, the emperor's ruling power will become stronger and stronger.

The emperor who has no constraints will definitely turn his head to weaken the powerful Jiang family.

No one in the Jiang family wants to see this.

took away the 100,000 grains from Ningmen Mansion, which could not only clean up the Yan family, but also add obstacles to the emperor.

He should be very satisfied with this result, but now that Xiao Yeyang has not appeared, the joy in his heart has suddenly been reduced by more than half.

Mrs. Jiang misunderstood Jiang Shenzheng’s meaning, and sneered, “I usually see Xiao Yeyang’s relationship with the Yan family pretty good. Before, Wanying saw him and the Yan family’s eldest girl walking intimately together. Zhi Gao had something wrong, but he ignored it, showing that he didn't really take the Yan family into his heart."

Jiang Shenzheng shook his head: "We haven't seen Xiao Yeyang for several months. Is he still in Zhongzhou now? On the northern frontier side, the mysterious Master Xiao has appeared again."

Ms. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then she thought of something, her eyes widened: "Master said that Xiao Yeyang is the Master Xiao?"

Jiang Shenzheng let out a sigh of relief: "Eight or nine out of ten." With that, he strode to the study.

He wants to tell his father the result of this temptation.
