Your Majesty, please do not

"Your Majesty, it's not that this doesn't work. It's not because I'm trying to put excuses. It's because it really can't be done." With a sad face, Bai Wanli handed the origami to Liang Huan.

"This is the method they wrote to rectify the administration of officials. I summed it up. It is too strict. It is to make Daping officials completely bleak. It is true that the people you want to touch are corrupt, but you don't want to touch anyone. It’s not that you can’t find fault, if you give this to Yushitai, they will definitely pretend they didn’t see it.”

Liang Huan understood, Yushitai was under Zhang Xintian's management, and Zhang Xintian was under Lin Zhuhui's management.Lin Zhuhui attached great importance to the stability of the court. If we want to thoroughly clean up corruption, it will touch the interests of many people. At that time, the whole court will be disrupted, and we don't know who should bear the responsibility.

Before Liang Huan asked what to do, Bai never handed over another copy.

"This was changed by the minister. The general idea has not changed, but the specific method has been changed to be gentler."

Liang Huan took the thing and looked at it for a few times, then said helplessly: "Okay, just do as you said. These days they are messing around again, I don't know if you have heard that something happened to the Ministry of Industry, and Jia Xuan was tricked went in."

Bai Wanlai said with a slight smile: "You and Prime Minister Lin took away so many of them, and they only moved you as a sixth-rank chief. It's a good deal."

Liang Huan sighed, "He had a bright future, but because he did something for me, he gave up in the middle way. I always feel that I have treated him badly."

"Your Majesty, don't think so." Bai Wanlai said slowly, "Prime Minister Ouyang can live a few more years? He is a Jinshi from the year before last, young and promising, can't afford to wait for this little time?"

Hearing this, Liang Huan couldn't help but chuckled, "You really have confidence in me, how do you know he won't live long?"

"The general trend."

After sending Bai Wanlai away, Liang Huan told Lu Yin, "Go and call the queen."

Lu Yin said: "Today is fifteen, why don't you go to Ruikun Palace?"

On the [-]th of each month, Liang Huan was supposed to go to the Queen's Palace as a rule, but he rarely followed this rule.

Liang Huan looked up at the sky, and it was almost time for dinner, so he put away the piece of paper Bai Lai had given him, got up and went out.

In Ruikun Palace, Empress Wu Jing knew that Liang Huan would come and not come on the [-]th of every month, so she didn't deliberately prepare anything.As the sun went down, she put on a coat and sat under the window to pass the dishes.

"Sister, I'm here!" A loud voice came into the room.

Wu Jing raised his eyes and saw him striding into the room, so he got up and nodded to him.There were quite a few palace people standing outside, so she still planned to be more respectful.

The palace man presented a plate of cakes, and she placed them in front of Liang Huan, "I've made something new recently, try it."

"What stuffing?" Liang Huan looked suspiciously at the things on the plate.

"Egg yolk filling."

Liang Huan said with a look of disgust: "Sister, can you stop making salty snacks for me all the time, I don't like them."

Wu Jing ignored him and just poured him a cup of tea, "What are you messing with recently? You look so bad."

Liang Huan was taken aback, did he look bad?He took Wu Jing's bronze mirror to look at it, and there seemed to be something wrong.Maybe it's because I've been making too much noise at night recently, and I went to bed too late.

He skipped this question and started to talk about his own business: "Sister, help me to ask, are there any nuns in the palace who are going out of the palace who are not married? I have an uncle here who is looking for a wife."

Hearing this, Wu Jing couldn't help laughing out loud, "Since when did you take care of this kind of thing? You can't take care of the world's major affairs, and you're still busy giving people red money?"

"Sister, help me..." Liang Huan shook her arm coquettishly.

"Okay, okay," Wu Jing patted his hand, "Tell me, looking for a wife, right? What are the conditions?"

He recalled: "Uncle is 58 years old, good-looking, and has read a little. He is just a scholar, but his son is a Jinshi..."

"State it?" Wu Jing smiled lightly.

Liang Huan was stunned for a while, "How do you know?"

"You guys are so unscrupulous in the palace, I don't think it's hard to know." Wu Jing drank tea by himself, his voice was flat, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

When she said this, Liang Huan felt relieved, pursed his lips and smiled, and was about to continue talking about the red line, but Wu Jing asked again: "Mother's birthday will be next month, will you take him there?"

"My...mother's birthday, why should I take him there?"

For this birthday banquet, he originally only wanted to go with Wu Jing. Wu Jing was their biological daughter, so he had no reason to bring another person.

Wu Jing said casually, "It's nothing, I'm just asking. If you take him with you, I'll make preparations to see if I tell the truth, or just hide."

"Why do you care so much about him? He has nothing to do with you." Liang Huan blinked in confusion.

At this moment, the palace servants put out plates of dishes, and Wu Jing quietly watched them busy, and said something as if it had nothing to do with him: "I'm afraid that people will hate me. If you don't bring him, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Liang Huan was stunned for a long time because she didn't understand what she said.

Wu Jing recalled the past: "Is it his father? What do you want?"

Only then did he come to his senses, and quickly said: "Those who want to be 'virtuous, courteous, advance and retreat' should be younger, preferably in their thirties."

"He is 58 years old, in his 30s?" Wu Jing was surprised.

"Yes," Liang Huan said shyly, "the family's heirs are weak, and they want to have children."

Wu Jing glanced at him, as if he understood what was going on, "Okay, let me ask you."

Seeing that all the dishes were served, he let Wu Jing eat alone, and he went out by himself.

On the way back, he gradually understood what Wu Jing was thinking.

She said she was afraid that the statement would hate him, would the statement hate her?With his personality, even if he really hated her, he must be respectful in front of her.

Thinking of this, Liang Huan couldn't help laughing.As if there is still a little hope that he hates her?

I never thought about taking him with me before.Now that I think about it, it doesn't matter if I bring it, right?As long as he doesn't say that he has a bad relationship with himself, it will be fine.

One of the statements entered the Yongzhou Guild Hall, and asked someone where Xia Ling had gone.He remembered that last time Xia Ling told him that he encountered problems in studying, so he specially set aside some time for her.

The proprietress pointed to the tea room beside her and said, "It's inside, you can find her later."

He walked to the door of the tea room and saw that Xia Ling was talking to some classmates from Yongzhou, so he didn't go in to disturb him, but just stood at the door and listened.

After listening for a while, he understood that Xia Ling was trying to persuade those scholars to return to their hometown to teach.He remembered that when he saw her last time, she said that she wanted to set up an academy. He thought it was just an idea, but he didn't expect her to take action so soon.

When Xia Ling paused, someone asked: "Who will pay for the construction of this academy? Who will manage it?"

She replied loudly: "Naturally, Xiguan Commercial Bank will pay for it, and I will manage it for the time being."

"Are you going to manage it?" The man's voice was very contemptuous, "How can an academy that emphasizes benevolence, justice and morality be managed by an immoral woman?"

After a moment of silence, it was Xia Ling's voice: "What do you mean? Who lost their virtue?"

Then someone said sourly: "I heard that Miss Xia from Xiguan Commercial Company married to Jingtian Commercial Company and was abandoned by Li's family because she didn't cultivate women's morals. A woman should reflect on herself when she sees her abandonment. How can she come out and start an academy?"

Hearing the statement outside, he was startled.

Xia Ling's voice became a little anxious: "What you are talking about is my private matter. The academy is the official business of Xiguan Commercial Bank, so don't interfere!"

Another person taunted: "If you are not upright, how can you be in charge of enlightenment? Miss Xia should go home earlier and read more women's virtues and precepts!"

She was choked up, but she still pretended to be calm: "It's not my fault! It's because..."

"Is it because of what? Jealousy? Or sex?"

Statement Zhi couldn't take it anymore, pushed open the door and strode in, and gave those people a cold look.Because he didn't know what was going on, he could only say: "They are all scholars, so you should pay attention to your dignity when you are outside."

Those people all knew Chen Zhi, even though they dared to bully Xia Ling, they absolutely did not dare to provoke him, they quickly lowered their heads and pretended nothing happened.

He immediately pulled Xia Ling out of the tea room, and sat at a corner table in the lobby.

As soon as the two sat down, Xia Ling lay in his arms and cried non-stop.Chen Zhi still pushed her away from him, and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

When she got better, Chen Zhi sighed and said, "If you want to talk, I'll listen."

Xia Ling wiped her face with her sleeve and began to speak intermittently.

A few years ago, Xia Ling was transporting goods with the caravan of the Xiguan Commercial Company. Before she left the desert, she encountered the famous gang of robbers in Yongzhou, the Red Scarf Village.There were not many people in the caravan that time, but everyone in the Red Scarf Village was skilled in martial arts, and they beat the people of Xiguan Commercial Bank to the ground.

At that time, everyone resisted desperately, and many of them were injured.Seeing the blood, Xia Ling was frightened, so she chose a random direction and ran away desperately.

Xia Ling felt that since the red scarf village had opened the killing ring, they definitely did not intend to let her go.When she found someone chasing after her, she thought it must be someone who came to kill her.

She ran for a long time, and finally she couldn't run anymore, so she had to sit on the ground.Then, I saw a man wearing a red turban rushing from far to near, with a knife in his hand.

She was afraid and wanted to run, but she had used too much strength just now.Besides, she knew that she couldn't run away from this person.So she lay down on the sand in despair, and told herself that maybe he couldn't see her because she was so small.

After a long time, no one approached her.The tense body gradually relaxed, Xia Ling couldn't help thinking, really didn't see it?

She sat up, and saw that not far from her, a person fell to the ground, the knife was thrown aside, and blood was all over his body.

Xia Ling was taken aback, and after confirming that he was indeed passed out, she dared to approach him a little bit.She squatted next to the man and found a large gash on his leg, blood still flowing out.

Looking at the blood flow, Xia Ling felt that if he didn't do anything, this person would become a corpse in the desert.

Mother said that bad guys should go to jail, not die.

She tore off a piece of cloth from her skirt and tied it tightly around the wound. The cloth was soon stained red, but no blood flowed out anymore.But this won't work. Although it can temporarily stop the bleeding, I don't know how long the cloth will last...

Fortunately, she often followed the caravan on this road and knew the location of the nearby villages.She turned the man over so that he was flat on the ground, and she grabbed his legs and dragged him across the sand.

After walking like this for half an hour, they arrived at a village.

She dragged the man to the doctor's house, gave him some money, and planned to find the carriage and horses to go home.The doctor was very puzzled: "Although he lost a lot of blood, he has been rescued. Why don't you wait for him to wake up and take him back?"

Xia Ling said: "No, I don't know him either. I only know that he is from Hongjin Village. I'm afraid he will wake up and kill me."

"Then you have to leave a name. When he wakes up, you can tell him who the savior is."

"Xiguan Commercial Bank, Xia Ling." Xia Ling finally told him.She thought, if this person knew who saved him, would he stop harassing Xiguan Firm in the future?

This incident was told to him two years ago when Xia Ling first met Chen Chen, and he just listened to it as a story.

Later, during the period when he stated that Lin Weiyang was heartbroken and had no time to care about things around him, he vaguely had the impression that several officers and soldiers came to the guild hall, saying that they wanted to arrest some bandits.

No one knew why the officers and soldiers felt that the bandits were in the Xiguan Firm, but saw them interrogating every servant in the firm.Xia Ling listened and understood: the bandit they were looking for was herself.

The officers and soldiers knew that the people in the Red Scarf Village were rescued by the people from the Xiguan Commercial Bank.A person who saves a bandit is a bandit.
