The Empire and the Kingdom

Feng Jingsu and his party led the garrison. The people in the village didn't plan to make a move at first, but looking at the carriages, they felt that there must be gold, silver and jewels inside.In addition, such a group of female relatives are all girls like flowers and jade. They are really itchy when they look at it. If they can be happy for a few days, it will be more attractive than those gold and silver.

Especially Xue Ai, not to mention beautiful, but also has a weak and charming temperament. The innkeeper, who is also the boss of this group of people, felt itchy in his heart, so he decided to make this vote.

Feng Jingsu asked Yu Shu to find the local magistrate after learning about this incident. The magistrate was also surnamed Feng. Relying on the same surname as the emperor, he always said in private that he and the royal family were far, far away relatives, and most of his colleagues gave him some advice. Face, even if it is nonsense, the surname Feng is always true.

Yushu went to file a complaint, but Feng Zhixian was still arrogant, saying that Yushu was a false accusation, and Yushu was about to be arrested in court.Yu Shu was so angry that she ran away. Without the orders of Feng Jingsu and Xue Ai, she did not dare to reveal her identity at will.

When she came back and explained the situation, Feng Jingsu rubbed her chin, "This Shaohe prefecture is an amazing place. There is such a magistrate. Let's go, let's meet the magistrate and see what kind of virtue it is."

When they arrived in the city of Shaohe Prefecture, Xue Ai took Yuyan to sue, saying that he was robbed in Fengjiaji, and the county magistrate didn't care, and asked Zhizhou to make the decision.

Zhizhou's surname was Zhang, and he immediately accepted Xue Ai's pleading paper, saying very politely that he would severely punish the perpetrators and the magistrate who had neglected his duties.

Xue Ai felt that Zhizhou's attitude was wrong, so she left Yuyan to secretly follow Zhizhou to the back hall to have a look, and she went back to the inn by herself.

Seeing her coming back, Feng Jingsu pulled her over and asked, "How is Zhizhou?"

"There is a problem." Xue Ai expressed his feelings. "I'm a commoner. If Zhizhou is in charge, just accept the pleadings. Why are you being polite to me? The attitude is too kind."

"You came all the way with five hundred garrison troops, even if we were separated from the garrison army before entering the city, wouldn't you know if you know the state?"

Xue Ai pouted, "I'll just say it, so it's because of my status as an imperial envoy."

"We are in a hurry to return to Beijing, and we don't have time to waste time with him." Feng Jingsu rubbed her head, "After you return to Beijing, you come to investigate the affairs of Shaohe Prefecture, and all officials who have problems will deal with it."

Xue Ai sighed, "If we hadn't stayed in Fengjiaji, I don't know how many innocent passersby were killed, and I don't know how many officials like Feng Zhixian were greedy for profit to protect their weaknesses."

"That's right." Feng Jingsu has seen a lot during her trip. The officials below are very good at reporting their work every year when they return to Beijing. However, following this road, most of the people's lives are barely enough, and the imperial court is also struggling with money. Where is the money? went?Isn't it fattening the pockets of these officials?

But how many corrupt officials can she catch?How many good officials can be rewarded?It is still necessary to find a way to fundamentally change the recruitment, assessment and promotion system, and this is really a long way to go.

Not long after, Yuyan came back. "Your Majesty, miss, Zhang Zhizhou knows the identity of the lady, so he will send someone to secretly escort the lady out of Shaohe Prefecture to ensure that the lady will not meet anyone she shouldn't meet again."

Xue Ai looked at Feng Jingsu, Feng Jingsu said: "This is to clear the scene for you."

With Zhang Zhizhou's full escort, Xue Ai and his party moved much faster.Xue Ai was lying in the carriage, drowsy.In the past two days, the journey was too fast, and she felt that she had no strength in her whole body and was very uncomfortable.

The garrison was equipped with a doctor who accompanied the army. After showing it to Xue Ai, he only said that Xue Ai was weak and couldn't bear this kind of running around. The best solution was to find a stable place to rest for a few days.

Xue Ai disagreed, and Feng Jingsu returned to Beijing in a hurry.But seeing Xue Ai's face getting more and more ugly, she finally decided to stop and take a rest.

This is the boundary of Minghua Mansion, and there is a Minghua Mountain nearby, hence the name.

Feng Jingsu saw that the scenery here was good, so she decided to stay here for two days to see how Xue Ai was doing.

Xue Ai's protest was ineffective, and she was placed in a big house at the foot of Minghua Mountain.She didn't know why there was a big house for her to live in, probably Feng Jingsu got it here with her status as an imperial envoy.

In fact, she guessed not bad at all.Feng Jingsu's identity cannot be revealed, but Xue Ai's identity can.The imperial envoy fell ill, and the prefect of Minghua Mansion immediately gave up this mansion for Xue Ai to recuperate. It is said that the prefect borrowed it from a local wealthy businessman.But as soon as Feng Jingsu came in, he saw something that only officials could use, which was obviously the official's private house.

Now she doesn't have time to take care of this kind of thing, anyway, go back and settle it slowly.Her mind is now on Xue Ai.

Xue Ai vomited blood in the early morning of the second day after moving in.Fortunately, Feng Jingsu was by her side at the time, sealed her vital points in time, and lost a little internal energy to her, and finally delayed her illness.This time Feng Jingsu didn't dare to be careless, so she hurriedly sent a letter to Fei Yejin, begging Xuecan to go down the mountain for help.

But unfortunately, Xue Cang recently had to take care of Sheng Ci who had just fallen ill, and the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu couldn't even please her.

As soon as Feng Jingsu received Gu Li's reply letter, saying that Sheng Ci's body had problems, she simply gave up hope and immediately looked for other solutions.

Guan Xuejing in the capital city received the news from Feng Jingsu, and immediately went to Doctor Fang. When the old man heard that Xue Ai was ill, he twirled his beard, "Ms. Xue San's body is indeed weak."

Before he finished twirling his beard, he was thrown into the carriage by Guan Xuejing, and the drug boy followed him into the carriage with the medicine box. Guan Xuejing had no way to leave the capital, and asked his third brother Guan Lin to escort Imperial Physician Fang to Minghua state.

On Xue Ai's side, apart from vomiting blood, there were no serious changes.Xue Ai is still awake, but Feng Jingsu doesn't allow her to be aggressive anymore, watching her every day and not letting her get out of bed, she stays in bed and rests.

Minghua has beautiful mountains and rivers, and Xue Ai feels that his breathing is unobstructed here.After waiting like this for five days, Imperial Physician Fang arrived and saw that Feng Jingsu was there, so he hurriedly greeted him.

"Don't be too polite, show Xiaoai quickly."

After taking Xue Ai's pulse, Imperial Physician Fang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. The residual poison in Miss Xue San's body has been completely eliminated."

Feng Jingsu frowned, "Then why do you vomit blood?"

"It should be the last injury of residual poison." Doctor Fang asked Xue Ai, "Miss San, did you feel that your breathing became much smoother after vomiting blood?"

Xue Ai nodded quickly, "I feel much more comfortable in the past few days."

"That's it. The third lady's residual poison has been cleared, and there is no need to eat those special meals in the future, but she still needs to take more supplements. Miss's body is still weak."

"There is a doctor named Labor." Xue Ai quickly thanked him.

After Imperial Physician Fang stepped back, Xue Ai grabbed Feng Jingsu's lapel and said happily, "I can eat normal food now!"

Feng Jingsu touched her head, "Yeah, it's all cleared up at last."

The poison that Pan's poisoned many years ago was finally eliminated, and Feng Jingsu also let out a sigh of relief.To be on the safe side, she still wrote to Xue Cang to ask if it was the same as Doctor Fang said.

After staying for another day, Xue Ai refused to delay any longer and insisted on returning to Beijing.After receiving the assurance from Physician Fang, the team returned to Beijing.

Xue Can's reply was quick, and Feng Jingsu received it on the way. Xue Can affirmed the judgment of Imperial Physician Fang, and also prescribed several prescriptions, so that Feng Jingsu could respond to different situations in Xue Ai.

As soon as Feng Jingsu returned to the palace, he asked people to make all the medicines according to the prescriptions, in case of emergencies.

She had been away for half a month, and she was supported by Xiang Xue alone.For this father-in-law, Feng Jingsu is sincerely grateful.No matter who is the emperor, Xue Xiang always does what he should do, conscientiously becoming the mainstay of the court.Don't hesitate, don't take credit, play power when it's time to play power, and suppress courtiers when it's time to suppress courtiers. Prime Minister Xue is not a good person in the traditional sense, and he is merciless in the face of those who challenge him. The prime minister is definitely a qualified prime minister. His power has changed, and his calmness has greatly affected other courtiers.Allow courtiers to transition quickly.

"Xue Xiang has worked hard."

Xue Xiang glanced at Xue Ai who was next to him, "It's because the minister is not strict with his daughter-in-law that he let His Majesty go out of Beijing in person, and the minister will naturally have to make up for it."

Xue Ai lowered her head in shame, Feng Jingsu would pamper her, but her own father was completely different.

"Daddy, my daughter knows she's wrong."

Xue Xiang shook his head, "You don't know, Your Majesty has spoiled you." In front of Feng Jingsu, he couldn't say much, but obviously he was not satisfied with Xue Ai.

Xue Ai looked at Feng Jingsu pitifully, and Feng Jingsu patted her hand, just about to open his mouth to plead for Xue Ai, but Xue Xiang started talking about government affairs, obviously not giving Feng Jingsu a chance to plead for mercy.

Xue Ai had no choice but to go aside silently to check the official files of Shaohe Prefecture.The emperor and prime minister finished their discussions, and Xue Xiang wanted to leave. Feng Jingsu accompanied him out, "Why does Xue Xiang say that about Xiao Ai? She is also doing things for me."

Xue Xiangdao: "Your Majesty dotes on her, but she shouldn't lose the distance between monarch and minister. Since ancient times, there is a difference between monarch and minister. Since Your Majesty is already a monarch, he can be her sister Su in private, but she is not someone who can be disobedient in matters of state. This matter is because of her willful refusal, so His Majesty went there in person and ignored government affairs for half a month. Love, isn't she the one who harmed the country?"

Seeing this, Feng Jingsu didn't have much to say, Xue Ai was not the only one who was willful in this matter?Xue Xiang is educating Xue Ai to educate her, the emperor.

When she returned to Qinzheng Hall, Xue Ai cried and said, "Sister Su, have you been educated by your father?"

Feng Jingsu raised her eyebrows, she is really a fox of the Xue family, seeing how well this pair of fathers know each other.

"I'm sorry, it's all because of me. I won't dare in the future." Originally, she thought that what she did was a good deed, but there must be a way to do a good deed, and she must abide by the rules.This matter may not seem like a big deal, but she has been stranded for a long time against Feng Jingsu's wishes.

Feng Jingsu is also reflecting on herself, she still has a lot to learn if she wants to be a good emperor.

After Feng Jingsu came back, she began to discuss the reform of the official system with the courtiers, and the evaluation of officials had to be re-negotiated.

Xue Ai was not idle either. Even though Feng Jingsu only allowed her to go to the Qinzheng Palace in the morning to help and return to the Shenhe Palace to rest in the afternoon, she checked the evaluation records of officials from the magistrate to the county magistrate in Shaohe Prefecture over the years. The evaluations over the years have not been very high, but the strange thing is that all this has not delayed the re-election and promotion of these people.
