[Caiyun Kingdom] The beginning of people
Chapter 91: Zelan
The author has something to say: tomorrow before [-]:[-] THEEND, double update.
"San Niang," Ouyang Yu said while taking off his earrings, "You really do it?"
I smiled, "Is there any problem? The saved and copied ones will be shipped to Bizhou."
"You really are the God of Wealth." Ouyang Yu smiled on his tired face.
"I have to thank my lord for running and helping me for many days." Ouyang Yu also worked hard when he rushed back to Guiyang from Hongzhou and immediately took on the burden of Bizhou.
While chatting, there was a knock on the door, and Ouyang Yu asked to come in.
"Lord Ouyang, Lord Zhang," the soldier bowed to us and bowed his hands in salute, "Your Majesty invites you to enter the palace."
Ouyang Yu and I looked at each other, then we stood up together, facing up.
Stepping over the white jade steps and crossing the high golden nanmu threshold, we stood in the center of the Golden Luan Hall, bowed our heads and listened to the new Prime Minister Jing Xiuli, representing the king, read out our appointment.
"...Therefore, Ouyang Yu, the former governor of Hongzhou, was appointed as the deputy governor of Bizhou, and Zhang Zelan, a new scholar and former prime minister of Guanglu Temple, was appointed governor of Bizhou."
Ouyang and I looked at each other again, but instead of accepting the official position, we stood up straight in the uproar of the courtiers.I rolled up my sleeves, smiled and looked up at Zi Liuhui on the throne, "Before accepting the appointment, I have a book to play."
"Kuizhang's family!" Guanglu Temple Minister Fan Wei has also been an official for many years, Xu Shi suddenly sensed it, and immediately shouted angrily, "Are you using natural disasters to threaten the court?"
I kept my smile unchanged, "Your Majesty's words are wrong, if the country's evils are not wiped out, how can we provide disaster relief?"
"What a bunch of nonsense! The imperial court has entrusted you with a heavy responsibility, Mr. Kui Zhang, but you use this to threaten to take credit..."
I stared straight at him, and interrupted him loudly: "You are the one I'm joining!" Fan Wei's voice stopped abruptly, and I took the opportunity to turn to the jade seat, bowed my head, and presented the memorial, "Guanglu Temple Minister Fan Wei's tenure Running short of public funds, and overcharging supplies and taxes from the people in the name of big internal purchases, all these things have been listed in the memorial book." A servant trotted and took my memorial book with both hands, and handed it to Zi Liuhui .
"Kui Zhangshi!" Fan Wei pointed at me with one hand, his fingers trembling slightly, "What evidence do you have for slandering me so much? Your Majesty," Fan Wei turned to face the jade throne, bowed his hands, "Kui Zhang's words are true It's nonsense, according to Weichen, she seems to have achieved success in one day, so she went to Haikou in an attempt to claim credit! I hope His Majesty will find out and punish this bad woman severely, and drive her out of my Langlang Palace!"
"The evidence presented includes not only the personal record of my minister's four years in Guanglu Temple, but also the data and accounts collected by the Queen Mother," I said slowly, "the evidence is as solid as a mountain."
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics! The hen sits in the morning, a sign of the country's ruin!"
Some ministers at court also frowned, I raised my head, smiled, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "The Red Queen is the mother of a country, and she is in charge of the harem, so what's wrong with checking the accounts of Guanglu Temple's banquet in the harem?" Mr. Fan may have missed it. The collection of evidence is still done by the lower officials. The lower officials are responsible for the account of the outer court." Since her wedding at the beginning of the year and entering the palace, Hong Xiuli is now pregnant. But this one has never stopped her footsteps, and in her way, has been assisting her beloved His Majesty.
Fan Wei stared at me fiercely, and said viciously: "You don't have the right to listen to the heaven, don't act recklessly just because you are Chief Kui's wife."
Fan Wei knows neither himself nor the enemy.What he said is actually correct, with my husband in the house, of course I already knew that Zhou Yin would be appointed, so I rushed to complete this case before the official visit.However, he didn't know the content of my report at all.In terms of these insidious things, Van Weer is better than me.I suppressed my smile, and said with a serious face: "The officials and the empress are just witnesses. The signatures on this case are the supervisory censors Zhen Su Fang and Lang Yanqing. It is the censor's bounden duty to picket all the officials." Obviously it was me. The case was revealed with Hong Xiuli, but it was well packaged, so what did he do to me?
Fan Wei turned to Lai Junchen, who is now the imperial censor, "Commissioner, is it too inappropriate for your subordinates to bypass you and write a letter?"
Lai Junchen sat upright, his eyes only glanced at Fan Wei, "Your Majesty, I have no objection. Yushi is the only position in the court that can bypass the chief to perform the duties of heaven, and I have no intention of changing this rule."
Fan Wei gritted his teeth resentfully, trembling all over, then turned around and stared at me fiercely, "Since you are a witness, it is not your turn to hand over the memorandum beyond your authority!"
"It's urgent," I straightened my sleeves, bent over the jade seat, "Consider the power. Your Majesty, it's time for a natural disaster. Before the humble official and Lord Ouyang take office, I implore your majesty to reduce the palace expenses and allocate them." I looked sideways at Fan Wei, "Plus the proceeds from the confiscated house by the criminal officer, and use it for disaster relief."
"Kui Zhang's!" Fan Wei roared.
Since Fan Wei was in a hurry, he had already lost everything.I pretended not to hear, and continued to speak calmly: "According to Weichen's preliminary calculations, this move can reduce the national treasury's expenditure on disaster relief by about one-third. Therefore, Weichen and Lord Ouyang proposed this case and resolved it together." Material issue. I am reckless, but the matter is prioritized, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
Huang Fengzhu, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was also sitting behind the case, with a rigid voice coming out from behind his mask: "The minister and the Zhang officials have each calculated once, and the Zhang officials' estimates are too conservative. This method is [-]%, and the expenditure can be reduced by half. "In charge of the treasury, he has his position.
I raised my head, smiled and said, "Sir Huang Shangshu, for disaster relief, it's better to leave more funds." As a local official, of course, I want to scour the central government for money.
Huang Fengzhu pondered for a moment, "It can be a quarter."
Ouyang Yu and I looked at each other.won.Huang Fengzhu was not mistaken in her calculations. This amount of money was about half of the relief fund. Now counting it as a quarter, in fact, the national treasury received a quarter less, and Bizhou received a quarter more.The reduction in state banquet expenses will benefit the treasury in the long run, a win-win situation.Through this impeachment case, we brought more supplies to Bizhou than normal.
The money has been divided, and the case has been hammered for the last time.
"Kui Zhang's!" Fan Wei slammed the table and shouted angrily.
"Clang!" Zi Liuhui held the sword with both hands, and he slammed the scabbard against the gold brick, making a clang.The king was blocked by twelve beaded curtains, and his quiet and powerful voice echoed in the solemn Jinluan Hall, "The case of Guanglu Temple Minister Fan Wei has solid evidence, come here, send Fan Weiwusha, and wait for the punishment department to issue."
With a squeak, the guards hurried in, took off Fan Wei's official hat, took off his official uniform, and dragged him off.
"Kui Zhangshi! Hahahaha!" Fan Wei looked up to the sky and laughed like a maniac, "As the saying goes, don't bark a dog that bites! Don't bark a dog that bites!"
I lower my eyes.
"It's not a family, don't enter a family." Fan Wei shouted loudly, "You and Kui Huangyi stepped on the dead body, sooner or later you will die!"
"If you step on a dead body, your feet will stink," said Huang Yi, who was sitting in the front row, "especially corrupt officials. I can indeed tell you this very responsibly." The former Yushitai chief said.
"..." The expressions of the courtiers faltered for a moment.
How Huang Yi will die, I don't know, but I know that you died first.
You want me to die badly, just like those people who were killed by me.One day, I may be with you, but even if I die, I will not let Huang Yi be buried with you.
I rolled up my sleeves, turned around and raised my hand to stop the guard's movement, and looked at Fan Wei, "Your Excellency, you should have read the letter of appointment for the next official four years ago. It says that it is Zhang Zelan, the new Prime Minister of Guanglu Temple." Not Kui Zhang's.I said loudly: "If you have any resentment, you don't need to look for the court or anyone else. I, Zhang Zelan, will stand here until I die. You can come to me at any time. I'm not afraid of you," I said in a cold voice, word by word. Said, "The people in Bizhou who have no clothes, no food, hunger and sickness are not afraid of you!"
I stood at the front of the hall and looked at Fan Wei who was in a mess in front of the hall.
After a while, I dragged my skirt and sleeves, and slowly turned around, with my back to the gate, and Fan Wei was dragged down again.
"Zhang! Ze! Lan!" Fan Wei's roar was blocked by the door of the Jinluan Hall which creaked shut.
"Next," Jing Youli's gentle voice sounded in the silent hall, "let's discuss the proposal of Zhangzhou Yin to reduce palace expenses to support the Bizhou plague." Jing Youli's gentleness is Heyou Shun's is completely different.
But the same is the current prime minister.
No one will be shaken by what happened just now.
I lowered my head and took a step back, while Ouyang Yu took a step forward at the same time, standing in front of me, working with the courtiers on Bizhou's relief supplies and various handover matters.
Fan Wei, the former Minister of Guanglu Temple, has since disappeared from the court.
After the court, Ouyang Yu and I were busy all afternoon in the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry for the delivery of materials, and it was too late to leave the palace in the evening.Ouyang Yu went to the Ministry of Officials to find his good friend and current Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Yang Xiu, and said that he would stay in Yang Xiu's lounge for one night.
"Yeah, Sanniang." Before leaving, Ouyang Yu hesitated for a while, "Are you going to Mr. Kui? Do you want me to see you there?"
Everyone in this palace is familiar with each other, so why send them off?I chuckled lightly, "My lord, it's okay to speak up if you have something to say."
"... Sanniang and Mrs. Lin are best friends," Ouyang Yu pursed her lips, "Do you often discuss business and private matters?"
……what?
I was taken aback before I realized it, and said with a smile, "Official Chai has always been respected." Yang Xiu was interested in Chai Lin, and I could tell.But, no matter what, please remember to respect Rin's choice, respect that she is not just someone's wife, but herself.Today, she is an outstanding official of the Ministry of Industry who has passed the system in an upright manner.
Ouyang Yu nodded, "Yes. Then... Is the official Chai...?"
"Excellent women are always difficult to pursue." I said cryptically.It is not easy for a person like You Shun to let go.But it wasn't a day that he didn't come out.As long as Rin is happy, whether she remarries or not, I will fully support her.
Zheng Youshun.That character with a lupine fan and gentle eyes, who played with the blood-colored mountains and rivers under his palm in the blink of an eye.
As for Yang Xiu, to what extent is he willing to work hard for this tiny possibility?
"Xiu is serious, please believe that."
yes.
After Ouyang Yu left, I strolled to a remote high-rise building in the outer court, walked up the dusty steps, stood by the railing and looked up at the bright and bright moon.
Footsteps came from behind.
"Huang Yi, do you blame me for accepting this appointment?" I lowered my head and whispered, and a familiar embrace with ambergris came up from behind.
"Don't blame me for passing such an appointment?" Huang Yi said.
I laughed, "Yes, yes, my lords have precise eyesight, this is the best appointment for a troubled person like me."
Huang Yi snorted coldly, "You just made good use of it."
I raised my hand to cover Huang Yi's hand around my waist, "You really don't blame me?" He went on a long journey again.
"I am here."
I leaned back to the backstage gentleman, "I really don't want to go." I'm afraid I'm too selfish.
"Go if you want to go, don't go if you don't want to, you idiot, what do you mean by a little bit?"
"It's troublesome humans who come and go." I said softly, "I'll be back."
"Does it need to be said?" He said coldly, "Don't think that you don't have to come back, just pass the exam and get a hundred husbands, just be honest and put the rest of your life on me."
"...I'm leaving tomorrow, my lord." Please be nice.
"Come back, climb up."
"Don't climb."
"I'm pulling."
"... Pulling it will hurt your hand." Evil ghost?
He tightened his arms, "Has the mouth become sharper?"
"... I don't dare to be a concubine." Compared with you, it is definitely not better than this──If my mouth is more poisonous than Huang Yi, then what have I become?Ha ha.
He exhaled, then turned to me and kissed me.
The combination of Ouyang and I is the best for the current Bizhou.
With Huang Yi in the center and him watching over the child, I can take a little extra step outside.
After parting, Huang Yi caressed my cheek, "Ghosts, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid." I was afraid of the ghost in my heart, "Knowing that fear is a good thing."
"Don't be afraid, you have no ambition!" Huang Yi said with a cold face, "Your husband is the jailer of hell, he will come after me if he has the ability."
Prison, jailer... Xiuli, don't speak ill of the chief behind his back, he will definitely hear it.
I burst out laughing, then patted his forehead with a snap, "Then I'm the jailer's wife." Is there a Cerberus bonus?Hey... Could it be the son who doesn't seem to be aggressive for the time being?
Huang Yi raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to give you a whip for your husband?"
"...I don't need a whip to be so unstyled." I don't want S's accessories.
On the morning of the next day, Huang Yi went back to the province, and I went out of the palace to pack up and set off for Bizhou with Ouyang before noon.In front of the gate of the house, the child tugged at the hem of my skirt, crying until his whole face was flushed.
I squatted down, "Bo Qing, I'm sorry."
"Kui Boqing." Huang Yi's voice came.
When the child received a cup of ice cream, he immediately shut his mouth and stopped crying.
I stood up and said with a smile, "Good morning." At first, I thought he wouldn't come.
Huang Yi came across the street, held my hand, and glanced at the child, "Ugly."
The child's eyes turned red again, but he didn't dare to cry out.I gave Huang Yi a sneaky look, slapped his hand away, and knelt down to coax the child.I couldn't be by his side, and he should cry.
"Why don't other mothers have to travel far?" the child asked.
I was suffocated, then lowered my eyes, arranging the child's hair and skirt.Just as he was about to apologize, Huang Yi pulled me up and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about him, I will spend time with him."
"..." Bo Qing still had the pitiful expression just now, he stared at his father with this expression, opened his mouth wide, dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe that he was going to be alone with his father.
Huang Yi put his hands behind his back and said, "Kui Boqing, what about the homework my father gave you yesterday?"
"...Mother, come back early!" After saying that, Bo Qing ran back to the mansion, even the nanny couldn't catch up with him.
Huang Yi shook my hand, "I'll take you to the city gate." He helped me into the carriage, and in the carriage, he said in a low voice, "Go, go, come back if you don't want to go, don't think too much about it."
"Do you think I will do well?" Be your wife and Bo Qing's mother.
"This is an appointment approved by the official. If it is useless, get out of the court." He paused, "Are you still so stupid at this age? Of course, a woman must maintain a proper sense of distance to catch her husband. A filial son is born under the stick, I will go back and beat him.”
"...Has Master Peak ever hit you?" He wanted to hit the child all day long.
"..."
I covered my mouth and held back my laughter so hard I couldn't breathe.
He raised his hand to cover his forehead, "Don't think about it, just punish him for copying."
"..." Then it's better to beat him up.
Huang Yi raised the corners of his mouth coldly, "Of course we pick the ones he doesn't like, this will get the fastest results."
"Let's take it slowly and carefully." Carefully, manage our home well.
"No," Huang Yi said, "Give me hands and feet, hurry up."
I smiled and said, "Yes, I know."
The carriage stopped, Huang Yi pressed my head, lowered his head and kissed my forehead forcefully, then lifted the curtain and went down, Cui Changfeng, who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, came up.
Then I, Ouyang and soldiers, set off to Bizhou.
Half a year later──
"Senior Sister, we should clean them up." Changfeng looked at the accounts of corrupt officials that we had obtained privately, his face darkened.
I took a sip of water, then read the official document, "Now is not the time, let's solve the epidemic first."
"I know."
I looked up at him, then stood up, folded up my sleeves slowly, and said with a smile, "Changfeng." I beckoned him to come over.When he got close, he pulled up his sleeves and threw him to the ground in his daze.People who are not afraid of copying books should be beaten, ha.
"..." Changfeng lay on the ground, dumbfounded.
"Go ask Zhou Mu to come over when you have time, the Chinese New Year celebration is here again." I took a step back and said with a smile.
"...Yeah? Ah, ah, yes!" Changfeng was dumbfounded, and went obediently.
Changbong with broken mature face is so cute, hahahaha.
During the Spring Festival celebration in the 14th year of Shangzhi, due to the busy affairs of Bizhou, the state shepherd was unable to take time off, so I represented the celebration in Beijing.Of course, there are still headaches, but I can see my family again.After all, he is a child and has a great forgetfulness. When we met again, Boqing felt a little strange to me. Fortunately, after chatting for a while, he was as clingy to me as before I left.
Hong Xiuli is also approaching production.
This year's palace banquet, in addition to the officials, people from the Hong family were also present, and He Bai, who hadn't seen him for a long time, was also present.After the morning banquet for hundreds of officials and the court meeting, I changed into my imperial attire and went to the harem. Only the high-ranking courtiers were left at the dinner.Gradually, after drinking for three rounds, the male and female guests separated, and we women gathered around the pregnant Liujia.
"How is Boqing?" Lily, who was sitting beside her, asked.
I smiled and nodded, "Yes. You and Li Shen?"
Lily turned her face away, "He's not like this..." but it was a joyful expression.She turned to Chai Lin, "Mrs. Lin, I'm sorry, last month's Hong Family Assassins had no intention of scaring Yuan Ji." Li Shen still persevered in stealing from You Shun's child.
Chai Lin deserves to be Chai Lin, she said calmly, "Yuan Ji said that she will go to Hongzhou to see Uncle Hong someday."
...a wonderful child.
The great maiden of the Piao family, the former highest official, Piao Zhucui, looked at Xiuli, "Your Majesty, do you need to take a break?"
Xiuli shook her head and said with a smile, "It's okay. Ah, yes, Thirteenth Ji, Sima Yushi came to see you just now."
So all of us silently turned our attention to Thirteenth Ji.
Thirteen Ji gritted her teeth for a while, then waved her small hand, "Sima Xun? I don't know."
While talking, when I turned my head, I saw Huang Yi standing beside Lai Junchen and Jiang Wenzhong, holding a small wine glass and looking at me.I smiled at him, turned around, took a sip of the fruit wine in my hand, and looked back, but he was still looking at me.
Yinggeyanyanwu, the sound of silk and bamboo can be heard endlessly, among the purple gauze swaying in the wind, the male and female guests are separated by the winding river.Beside the river, there are railings carved from white jade; beside the railings, there are interlacing cups and saucers.In the dark night, the lanterns hanging under the porch shine brighter and brighter.
I remembered the day when I went to a brothel for the first time as Miss Zhang's family.That day, Huang Yi was the supervisory censor who had just uncovered a major case, and I was a fledgling small businessman who would throw up even after drinking a lot of wine.The grandeur of the imperial palace is different from that of a brothel, but they are both gorgeous and dazzling.If you are not careful, you will not be able to find the people you should pay attention to, and you will be wiped out in the colorful.
But for some reason, I could clearly see Huang Yi's gray-blue eyes.
I can see him who took the golden hairpin off my head that night.
Through these, through memories, Huang Yi and I stared at each other.
I turned my head back, and after a while, I turned around again, and he was still looking at me.
...what is this doing.
I was suddenly a little annoyed, turned away to take a sip of wine, then turned back, he was still watching.Huang Yi raised his hand and pointed to the outside.I turned my head away, raised my sleeve to cover my mouth and coughed lightly to hide my smile.While everyone was having a good time talking, I quietly retreated and walked to a small pavilion in the middle of the lake in the palace.
From a distance, I saw Huang Yi already waiting here.
Slowly, approach him.
Huang Yi came down and stretched out his hand to help me step up the steps in front of the pavilion.
"Is it cold?" He brushed my forehead hair.
I shook my head, "I just drank some wine and am warming up."
"Why is the wind blowing after drinking?" Huang Yi frowned and scolded me, and wrapped his cloak around me tightly. "On the fifteenth day, do you want to go out?" He asked.
I thought about it, then shook my head, "I'm afraid I'll make Bo Qing cold."
Huang Yi raised his eyebrows, "Who said he was going to be taken out?"
"...Aha?" I chuckled and patted his shoulder lightly, "Well, I'll listen to you."
Huang Yi twisted the broken hair from my sideburns behind my ears, and brushed my ears and the side of my face with his hands.I lowered my head, he stretched out his hand to hold my hand, I turned slightly, leaned against him, listened to the slight vibration of my chest when he spoke, and talked softly with him.
The topic somehow turned to the music, and together with the interest, Huang Yi went to ask someone to bring the piano.He burned incense for me, cleaned my hands, and then helped me sit in front of the piano.I straightened my sleeves, and Huang Yi, who was standing by, took out his dragon flute.
We looked at each other and smiled, playing at the same time.
Naturally, it is the song of mountains and rivers.
Accompanied by the gurgling sound of the small river by the lake, Huang Yi's dragon flute played with the quaint taste accumulated over the years. I looked down at the strings and smiled in harmony.He is really in a good mood, and sometimes turns to me.Fortunately, I didn't miss too much in my homework, so I played with him and blended the Lord and harmony from time to time.
Although we are in the pavilions and pavilions in the palace, we all want to play this song, thinking of the mountains and flowing water beyond the blue sky.
After the new year, I went back to Bizhou.When the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, news came from Guiyang that Xiuli gave birth to a princess, and then died, and the whole country mourned.
Hearing this news, I quietly took off my official hat, took the white cloth handed over by the clerk, covered it, put on my official hat again, and continued to process official documents.
Although You Shun had already told me that Hong Xiuli's time was short, but to be honest, I still felt that her death was a little bit sudden and a little bit unreal. The heroine of "The Story of Caiyun Kingdom" has passed away?
This time, who else could have that tear-prone king lean on his shoulders to cry on?
"San Niang," Ouyang Yu knocked on the door, and pushed the door open before I could answer, "Seal it." His expression was a little stiff, but his eyes did not waver.
It has been two years since the Bizhou plague broke out, but there is still no cure.Thanks to the good handling of the former state Mu Yuyu, the state government can still control the spread of the plague in stages, but there has been no cure, and the plague is still spreading a little bit, and there are blue states bordering Bizhou. There are sporadic cases.
Under the pressure, the Bizhou state government sealed off villages and counties. Now, it's time to seal off the state.
There is no other way.
Ouyang Yu, whose family members are all in Bizhou, made this decision.
I stood up and bowed to him, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ouyang, I couldn't find a cure from the capital."
Ouyang Yu helped me up, but he turned around and bowed to me, "Thank you, Officer Zhang, for finding more food and supplies for Bizhou during the Chinese New Year."
I quickly turned away in shame.
We looked at each other for a moment, then straightened our clothes and bowed to each other.Straightening up, I smiled at him, Ouyang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
Bizhou will be sealed off immediately, and it will become an epidemic state where no one is allowed to enter or leave. Anyone who violates the order will be punished. At the same time, Guiyang will be notified immediately, asking the forbidden army to rush to Bizhou to assist in the implementation of the order. The army suppressed the border.
Because, the family members of the Bizhou army are all in Bizhou.
Prior to this, we had to first invite the help of the Blue State Army and the Red State Army on the state border.No one can go out.
After Ouyang signed the decree with his seal, I also countersigned it, affixed the official seal, rolled up my sleeves, and signed my name.
Bizhou Zhouyin, Zhang Zelan.
After I stopped writing, I looked out the window at the cloud-covered sky that was about to rain.
Huang Yi, Bo Qing.
I am not afraid of death.
But afraid.
"San Niang," Ouyang Yu said while taking off his earrings, "You really do it?"
I smiled, "Is there any problem? The saved and copied ones will be shipped to Bizhou."
"You really are the God of Wealth." Ouyang Yu smiled on his tired face.
"I have to thank my lord for running and helping me for many days." Ouyang Yu also worked hard when he rushed back to Guiyang from Hongzhou and immediately took on the burden of Bizhou.
While chatting, there was a knock on the door, and Ouyang Yu asked to come in.
"Lord Ouyang, Lord Zhang," the soldier bowed to us and bowed his hands in salute, "Your Majesty invites you to enter the palace."
Ouyang Yu and I looked at each other, then we stood up together, facing up.
Stepping over the white jade steps and crossing the high golden nanmu threshold, we stood in the center of the Golden Luan Hall, bowed our heads and listened to the new Prime Minister Jing Xiuli, representing the king, read out our appointment.
"...Therefore, Ouyang Yu, the former governor of Hongzhou, was appointed as the deputy governor of Bizhou, and Zhang Zelan, a new scholar and former prime minister of Guanglu Temple, was appointed governor of Bizhou."
Ouyang and I looked at each other again, but instead of accepting the official position, we stood up straight in the uproar of the courtiers.I rolled up my sleeves, smiled and looked up at Zi Liuhui on the throne, "Before accepting the appointment, I have a book to play."
"Kuizhang's family!" Guanglu Temple Minister Fan Wei has also been an official for many years, Xu Shi suddenly sensed it, and immediately shouted angrily, "Are you using natural disasters to threaten the court?"
I kept my smile unchanged, "Your Majesty's words are wrong, if the country's evils are not wiped out, how can we provide disaster relief?"
"What a bunch of nonsense! The imperial court has entrusted you with a heavy responsibility, Mr. Kui Zhang, but you use this to threaten to take credit..."
I stared straight at him, and interrupted him loudly: "You are the one I'm joining!" Fan Wei's voice stopped abruptly, and I took the opportunity to turn to the jade seat, bowed my head, and presented the memorial, "Guanglu Temple Minister Fan Wei's tenure Running short of public funds, and overcharging supplies and taxes from the people in the name of big internal purchases, all these things have been listed in the memorial book." A servant trotted and took my memorial book with both hands, and handed it to Zi Liuhui .
"Kui Zhangshi!" Fan Wei pointed at me with one hand, his fingers trembling slightly, "What evidence do you have for slandering me so much? Your Majesty," Fan Wei turned to face the jade throne, bowed his hands, "Kui Zhang's words are true It's nonsense, according to Weichen, she seems to have achieved success in one day, so she went to Haikou in an attempt to claim credit! I hope His Majesty will find out and punish this bad woman severely, and drive her out of my Langlang Palace!"
"The evidence presented includes not only the personal record of my minister's four years in Guanglu Temple, but also the data and accounts collected by the Queen Mother," I said slowly, "the evidence is as solid as a mountain."
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics! The hen sits in the morning, a sign of the country's ruin!"
Some ministers at court also frowned, I raised my head, smiled, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "The Red Queen is the mother of a country, and she is in charge of the harem, so what's wrong with checking the accounts of Guanglu Temple's banquet in the harem?" Mr. Fan may have missed it. The collection of evidence is still done by the lower officials. The lower officials are responsible for the account of the outer court." Since her wedding at the beginning of the year and entering the palace, Hong Xiuli is now pregnant. But this one has never stopped her footsteps, and in her way, has been assisting her beloved His Majesty.
Fan Wei stared at me fiercely, and said viciously: "You don't have the right to listen to the heaven, don't act recklessly just because you are Chief Kui's wife."
Fan Wei knows neither himself nor the enemy.What he said is actually correct, with my husband in the house, of course I already knew that Zhou Yin would be appointed, so I rushed to complete this case before the official visit.However, he didn't know the content of my report at all.In terms of these insidious things, Van Weer is better than me.I suppressed my smile, and said with a serious face: "The officials and the empress are just witnesses. The signatures on this case are the supervisory censors Zhen Su Fang and Lang Yanqing. It is the censor's bounden duty to picket all the officials." Obviously it was me. The case was revealed with Hong Xiuli, but it was well packaged, so what did he do to me?
Fan Wei turned to Lai Junchen, who is now the imperial censor, "Commissioner, is it too inappropriate for your subordinates to bypass you and write a letter?"
Lai Junchen sat upright, his eyes only glanced at Fan Wei, "Your Majesty, I have no objection. Yushi is the only position in the court that can bypass the chief to perform the duties of heaven, and I have no intention of changing this rule."
Fan Wei gritted his teeth resentfully, trembling all over, then turned around and stared at me fiercely, "Since you are a witness, it is not your turn to hand over the memorandum beyond your authority!"
"It's urgent," I straightened my sleeves, bent over the jade seat, "Consider the power. Your Majesty, it's time for a natural disaster. Before the humble official and Lord Ouyang take office, I implore your majesty to reduce the palace expenses and allocate them." I looked sideways at Fan Wei, "Plus the proceeds from the confiscated house by the criminal officer, and use it for disaster relief."
"Kui Zhang's!" Fan Wei roared.
Since Fan Wei was in a hurry, he had already lost everything.I pretended not to hear, and continued to speak calmly: "According to Weichen's preliminary calculations, this move can reduce the national treasury's expenditure on disaster relief by about one-third. Therefore, Weichen and Lord Ouyang proposed this case and resolved it together." Material issue. I am reckless, but the matter is prioritized, I hope Your Majesty will forgive me."
Huang Fengzhu, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, was also sitting behind the case, with a rigid voice coming out from behind his mask: "The minister and the Zhang officials have each calculated once, and the Zhang officials' estimates are too conservative. This method is [-]%, and the expenditure can be reduced by half. "In charge of the treasury, he has his position.
I raised my head, smiled and said, "Sir Huang Shangshu, for disaster relief, it's better to leave more funds." As a local official, of course, I want to scour the central government for money.
Huang Fengzhu pondered for a moment, "It can be a quarter."
Ouyang Yu and I looked at each other.won.Huang Fengzhu was not mistaken in her calculations. This amount of money was about half of the relief fund. Now counting it as a quarter, in fact, the national treasury received a quarter less, and Bizhou received a quarter more.The reduction in state banquet expenses will benefit the treasury in the long run, a win-win situation.Through this impeachment case, we brought more supplies to Bizhou than normal.
The money has been divided, and the case has been hammered for the last time.
"Kui Zhang's!" Fan Wei slammed the table and shouted angrily.
"Clang!" Zi Liuhui held the sword with both hands, and he slammed the scabbard against the gold brick, making a clang.The king was blocked by twelve beaded curtains, and his quiet and powerful voice echoed in the solemn Jinluan Hall, "The case of Guanglu Temple Minister Fan Wei has solid evidence, come here, send Fan Weiwusha, and wait for the punishment department to issue."
With a squeak, the guards hurried in, took off Fan Wei's official hat, took off his official uniform, and dragged him off.
"Kui Zhangshi! Hahahaha!" Fan Wei looked up to the sky and laughed like a maniac, "As the saying goes, don't bark a dog that bites! Don't bark a dog that bites!"
I lower my eyes.
"It's not a family, don't enter a family." Fan Wei shouted loudly, "You and Kui Huangyi stepped on the dead body, sooner or later you will die!"
"If you step on a dead body, your feet will stink," said Huang Yi, who was sitting in the front row, "especially corrupt officials. I can indeed tell you this very responsibly." The former Yushitai chief said.
"..." The expressions of the courtiers faltered for a moment.
How Huang Yi will die, I don't know, but I know that you died first.
You want me to die badly, just like those people who were killed by me.One day, I may be with you, but even if I die, I will not let Huang Yi be buried with you.
I rolled up my sleeves, turned around and raised my hand to stop the guard's movement, and looked at Fan Wei, "Your Excellency, you should have read the letter of appointment for the next official four years ago. It says that it is Zhang Zelan, the new Prime Minister of Guanglu Temple." Not Kui Zhang's.I said loudly: "If you have any resentment, you don't need to look for the court or anyone else. I, Zhang Zelan, will stand here until I die. You can come to me at any time. I'm not afraid of you," I said in a cold voice, word by word. Said, "The people in Bizhou who have no clothes, no food, hunger and sickness are not afraid of you!"
I stood at the front of the hall and looked at Fan Wei who was in a mess in front of the hall.
After a while, I dragged my skirt and sleeves, and slowly turned around, with my back to the gate, and Fan Wei was dragged down again.
"Zhang! Ze! Lan!" Fan Wei's roar was blocked by the door of the Jinluan Hall which creaked shut.
"Next," Jing Youli's gentle voice sounded in the silent hall, "let's discuss the proposal of Zhangzhou Yin to reduce palace expenses to support the Bizhou plague." Jing Youli's gentleness is Heyou Shun's is completely different.
But the same is the current prime minister.
No one will be shaken by what happened just now.
I lowered my head and took a step back, while Ouyang Yu took a step forward at the same time, standing in front of me, working with the courtiers on Bizhou's relief supplies and various handover matters.
Fan Wei, the former Minister of Guanglu Temple, has since disappeared from the court.
After the court, Ouyang Yu and I were busy all afternoon in the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Industry for the delivery of materials, and it was too late to leave the palace in the evening.Ouyang Yu went to the Ministry of Officials to find his good friend and current Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Yang Xiu, and said that he would stay in Yang Xiu's lounge for one night.
"Yeah, Sanniang." Before leaving, Ouyang Yu hesitated for a while, "Are you going to Mr. Kui? Do you want me to see you there?"
Everyone in this palace is familiar with each other, so why send them off?I chuckled lightly, "My lord, it's okay to speak up if you have something to say."
"... Sanniang and Mrs. Lin are best friends," Ouyang Yu pursed her lips, "Do you often discuss business and private matters?"
……what?
I was taken aback before I realized it, and said with a smile, "Official Chai has always been respected." Yang Xiu was interested in Chai Lin, and I could tell.But, no matter what, please remember to respect Rin's choice, respect that she is not just someone's wife, but herself.Today, she is an outstanding official of the Ministry of Industry who has passed the system in an upright manner.
Ouyang Yu nodded, "Yes. Then... Is the official Chai...?"
"Excellent women are always difficult to pursue." I said cryptically.It is not easy for a person like You Shun to let go.But it wasn't a day that he didn't come out.As long as Rin is happy, whether she remarries or not, I will fully support her.
Zheng Youshun.That character with a lupine fan and gentle eyes, who played with the blood-colored mountains and rivers under his palm in the blink of an eye.
As for Yang Xiu, to what extent is he willing to work hard for this tiny possibility?
"Xiu is serious, please believe that."
yes.
After Ouyang Yu left, I strolled to a remote high-rise building in the outer court, walked up the dusty steps, stood by the railing and looked up at the bright and bright moon.
Footsteps came from behind.
"Huang Yi, do you blame me for accepting this appointment?" I lowered my head and whispered, and a familiar embrace with ambergris came up from behind.
"Don't blame me for passing such an appointment?" Huang Yi said.
I laughed, "Yes, yes, my lords have precise eyesight, this is the best appointment for a troubled person like me."
Huang Yi snorted coldly, "You just made good use of it."
I raised my hand to cover Huang Yi's hand around my waist, "You really don't blame me?" He went on a long journey again.
"I am here."
I leaned back to the backstage gentleman, "I really don't want to go." I'm afraid I'm too selfish.
"Go if you want to go, don't go if you don't want to, you idiot, what do you mean by a little bit?"
"It's troublesome humans who come and go." I said softly, "I'll be back."
"Does it need to be said?" He said coldly, "Don't think that you don't have to come back, just pass the exam and get a hundred husbands, just be honest and put the rest of your life on me."
"...I'm leaving tomorrow, my lord." Please be nice.
"Come back, climb up."
"Don't climb."
"I'm pulling."
"... Pulling it will hurt your hand." Evil ghost?
He tightened his arms, "Has the mouth become sharper?"
"... I don't dare to be a concubine." Compared with you, it is definitely not better than this──If my mouth is more poisonous than Huang Yi, then what have I become?Ha ha.
He exhaled, then turned to me and kissed me.
The combination of Ouyang and I is the best for the current Bizhou.
With Huang Yi in the center and him watching over the child, I can take a little extra step outside.
After parting, Huang Yi caressed my cheek, "Ghosts, aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid." I was afraid of the ghost in my heart, "Knowing that fear is a good thing."
"Don't be afraid, you have no ambition!" Huang Yi said with a cold face, "Your husband is the jailer of hell, he will come after me if he has the ability."
Prison, jailer... Xiuli, don't speak ill of the chief behind his back, he will definitely hear it.
I burst out laughing, then patted his forehead with a snap, "Then I'm the jailer's wife." Is there a Cerberus bonus?Hey... Could it be the son who doesn't seem to be aggressive for the time being?
Huang Yi raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to give you a whip for your husband?"
"...I don't need a whip to be so unstyled." I don't want S's accessories.
On the morning of the next day, Huang Yi went back to the province, and I went out of the palace to pack up and set off for Bizhou with Ouyang before noon.In front of the gate of the house, the child tugged at the hem of my skirt, crying until his whole face was flushed.
I squatted down, "Bo Qing, I'm sorry."
"Kui Boqing." Huang Yi's voice came.
When the child received a cup of ice cream, he immediately shut his mouth and stopped crying.
I stood up and said with a smile, "Good morning." At first, I thought he wouldn't come.
Huang Yi came across the street, held my hand, and glanced at the child, "Ugly."
The child's eyes turned red again, but he didn't dare to cry out.I gave Huang Yi a sneaky look, slapped his hand away, and knelt down to coax the child.I couldn't be by his side, and he should cry.
"Why don't other mothers have to travel far?" the child asked.
I was suffocated, then lowered my eyes, arranging the child's hair and skirt.Just as he was about to apologize, Huang Yi pulled me up and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry about him, I will spend time with him."
"..." Bo Qing still had the pitiful expression just now, he stared at his father with this expression, opened his mouth wide, dumbfounded, as if he couldn't believe that he was going to be alone with his father.
Huang Yi put his hands behind his back and said, "Kui Boqing, what about the homework my father gave you yesterday?"
"...Mother, come back early!" After saying that, Bo Qing ran back to the mansion, even the nanny couldn't catch up with him.
Huang Yi shook my hand, "I'll take you to the city gate." He helped me into the carriage, and in the carriage, he said in a low voice, "Go, go, come back if you don't want to go, don't think too much about it."
"Do you think I will do well?" Be your wife and Bo Qing's mother.
"This is an appointment approved by the official. If it is useless, get out of the court." He paused, "Are you still so stupid at this age? Of course, a woman must maintain a proper sense of distance to catch her husband. A filial son is born under the stick, I will go back and beat him.”
"...Has Master Peak ever hit you?" He wanted to hit the child all day long.
"..."
I covered my mouth and held back my laughter so hard I couldn't breathe.
He raised his hand to cover his forehead, "Don't think about it, just punish him for copying."
"..." Then it's better to beat him up.
Huang Yi raised the corners of his mouth coldly, "Of course we pick the ones he doesn't like, this will get the fastest results."
"Let's take it slowly and carefully." Carefully, manage our home well.
"No," Huang Yi said, "Give me hands and feet, hurry up."
I smiled and said, "Yes, I know."
The carriage stopped, Huang Yi pressed my head, lowered his head and kissed my forehead forcefully, then lifted the curtain and went down, Cui Changfeng, who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, came up.
Then I, Ouyang and soldiers, set off to Bizhou.
Half a year later──
"Senior Sister, we should clean them up." Changfeng looked at the accounts of corrupt officials that we had obtained privately, his face darkened.
I took a sip of water, then read the official document, "Now is not the time, let's solve the epidemic first."
"I know."
I looked up at him, then stood up, folded up my sleeves slowly, and said with a smile, "Changfeng." I beckoned him to come over.When he got close, he pulled up his sleeves and threw him to the ground in his daze.People who are not afraid of copying books should be beaten, ha.
"..." Changfeng lay on the ground, dumbfounded.
"Go ask Zhou Mu to come over when you have time, the Chinese New Year celebration is here again." I took a step back and said with a smile.
"...Yeah? Ah, ah, yes!" Changfeng was dumbfounded, and went obediently.
Changbong with broken mature face is so cute, hahahaha.
During the Spring Festival celebration in the 14th year of Shangzhi, due to the busy affairs of Bizhou, the state shepherd was unable to take time off, so I represented the celebration in Beijing.Of course, there are still headaches, but I can see my family again.After all, he is a child and has a great forgetfulness. When we met again, Boqing felt a little strange to me. Fortunately, after chatting for a while, he was as clingy to me as before I left.
Hong Xiuli is also approaching production.
This year's palace banquet, in addition to the officials, people from the Hong family were also present, and He Bai, who hadn't seen him for a long time, was also present.After the morning banquet for hundreds of officials and the court meeting, I changed into my imperial attire and went to the harem. Only the high-ranking courtiers were left at the dinner.Gradually, after drinking for three rounds, the male and female guests separated, and we women gathered around the pregnant Liujia.
"How is Boqing?" Lily, who was sitting beside her, asked.
I smiled and nodded, "Yes. You and Li Shen?"
Lily turned her face away, "He's not like this..." but it was a joyful expression.She turned to Chai Lin, "Mrs. Lin, I'm sorry, last month's Hong Family Assassins had no intention of scaring Yuan Ji." Li Shen still persevered in stealing from You Shun's child.
Chai Lin deserves to be Chai Lin, she said calmly, "Yuan Ji said that she will go to Hongzhou to see Uncle Hong someday."
...a wonderful child.
The great maiden of the Piao family, the former highest official, Piao Zhucui, looked at Xiuli, "Your Majesty, do you need to take a break?"
Xiuli shook her head and said with a smile, "It's okay. Ah, yes, Thirteenth Ji, Sima Yushi came to see you just now."
So all of us silently turned our attention to Thirteenth Ji.
Thirteen Ji gritted her teeth for a while, then waved her small hand, "Sima Xun? I don't know."
While talking, when I turned my head, I saw Huang Yi standing beside Lai Junchen and Jiang Wenzhong, holding a small wine glass and looking at me.I smiled at him, turned around, took a sip of the fruit wine in my hand, and looked back, but he was still looking at me.
Yinggeyanyanwu, the sound of silk and bamboo can be heard endlessly, among the purple gauze swaying in the wind, the male and female guests are separated by the winding river.Beside the river, there are railings carved from white jade; beside the railings, there are interlacing cups and saucers.In the dark night, the lanterns hanging under the porch shine brighter and brighter.
I remembered the day when I went to a brothel for the first time as Miss Zhang's family.That day, Huang Yi was the supervisory censor who had just uncovered a major case, and I was a fledgling small businessman who would throw up even after drinking a lot of wine.The grandeur of the imperial palace is different from that of a brothel, but they are both gorgeous and dazzling.If you are not careful, you will not be able to find the people you should pay attention to, and you will be wiped out in the colorful.
But for some reason, I could clearly see Huang Yi's gray-blue eyes.
I can see him who took the golden hairpin off my head that night.
Through these, through memories, Huang Yi and I stared at each other.
I turned my head back, and after a while, I turned around again, and he was still looking at me.
...what is this doing.
I was suddenly a little annoyed, turned away to take a sip of wine, then turned back, he was still watching.Huang Yi raised his hand and pointed to the outside.I turned my head away, raised my sleeve to cover my mouth and coughed lightly to hide my smile.While everyone was having a good time talking, I quietly retreated and walked to a small pavilion in the middle of the lake in the palace.
From a distance, I saw Huang Yi already waiting here.
Slowly, approach him.
Huang Yi came down and stretched out his hand to help me step up the steps in front of the pavilion.
"Is it cold?" He brushed my forehead hair.
I shook my head, "I just drank some wine and am warming up."
"Why is the wind blowing after drinking?" Huang Yi frowned and scolded me, and wrapped his cloak around me tightly. "On the fifteenth day, do you want to go out?" He asked.
I thought about it, then shook my head, "I'm afraid I'll make Bo Qing cold."
Huang Yi raised his eyebrows, "Who said he was going to be taken out?"
"...Aha?" I chuckled and patted his shoulder lightly, "Well, I'll listen to you."
Huang Yi twisted the broken hair from my sideburns behind my ears, and brushed my ears and the side of my face with his hands.I lowered my head, he stretched out his hand to hold my hand, I turned slightly, leaned against him, listened to the slight vibration of my chest when he spoke, and talked softly with him.
The topic somehow turned to the music, and together with the interest, Huang Yi went to ask someone to bring the piano.He burned incense for me, cleaned my hands, and then helped me sit in front of the piano.I straightened my sleeves, and Huang Yi, who was standing by, took out his dragon flute.
We looked at each other and smiled, playing at the same time.
Naturally, it is the song of mountains and rivers.
Accompanied by the gurgling sound of the small river by the lake, Huang Yi's dragon flute played with the quaint taste accumulated over the years. I looked down at the strings and smiled in harmony.He is really in a good mood, and sometimes turns to me.Fortunately, I didn't miss too much in my homework, so I played with him and blended the Lord and harmony from time to time.
Although we are in the pavilions and pavilions in the palace, we all want to play this song, thinking of the mountains and flowing water beyond the blue sky.
After the new year, I went back to Bizhou.When the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, news came from Guiyang that Xiuli gave birth to a princess, and then died, and the whole country mourned.
Hearing this news, I quietly took off my official hat, took the white cloth handed over by the clerk, covered it, put on my official hat again, and continued to process official documents.
Although You Shun had already told me that Hong Xiuli's time was short, but to be honest, I still felt that her death was a little bit sudden and a little bit unreal. The heroine of "The Story of Caiyun Kingdom" has passed away?
This time, who else could have that tear-prone king lean on his shoulders to cry on?
"San Niang," Ouyang Yu knocked on the door, and pushed the door open before I could answer, "Seal it." His expression was a little stiff, but his eyes did not waver.
It has been two years since the Bizhou plague broke out, but there is still no cure.Thanks to the good handling of the former state Mu Yuyu, the state government can still control the spread of the plague in stages, but there has been no cure, and the plague is still spreading a little bit, and there are blue states bordering Bizhou. There are sporadic cases.
Under the pressure, the Bizhou state government sealed off villages and counties. Now, it's time to seal off the state.
There is no other way.
Ouyang Yu, whose family members are all in Bizhou, made this decision.
I stood up and bowed to him, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ouyang, I couldn't find a cure from the capital."
Ouyang Yu helped me up, but he turned around and bowed to me, "Thank you, Officer Zhang, for finding more food and supplies for Bizhou during the Chinese New Year."
I quickly turned away in shame.
We looked at each other for a moment, then straightened our clothes and bowed to each other.Straightening up, I smiled at him, Ouyang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
Bizhou will be sealed off immediately, and it will become an epidemic state where no one is allowed to enter or leave. Anyone who violates the order will be punished. At the same time, Guiyang will be notified immediately, asking the forbidden army to rush to Bizhou to assist in the implementation of the order. The army suppressed the border.
Because, the family members of the Bizhou army are all in Bizhou.
Prior to this, we had to first invite the help of the Blue State Army and the Red State Army on the state border.No one can go out.
After Ouyang signed the decree with his seal, I also countersigned it, affixed the official seal, rolled up my sleeves, and signed my name.
Bizhou Zhouyin, Zhang Zelan.
After I stopped writing, I looked out the window at the cloud-covered sky that was about to rain.
Huang Yi, Bo Qing.
I am not afraid of death.
But afraid.
