In mid-April, the court battle became more and more severe. Several officials jointly played a series of scribblings. Shen Congxing, the northern marquis of Weiwei, used power for personal gain. The following played eleven crimes such as infringement of people's land, clever seizure, and party misconduct. If it’s just a false report, it’s fine, but the Zuo Du Yushi Liu Suyang is upright and impartial, and this time he also wrote a book to make trouble; the emperor asked Liu Zhengjie to make a serious investigation. After the investigation, he found that the hole may not be without wind, especially Shen Congxing’s eldest son was bullying outside, and his in-laws, Zou’s family, put the seal money and forced their lives.
For a time, there was a lot of play and criticism.
"If it is a person who is stern, it is right and wrong to the person. But if it is the wicked villain who wants bad things, he has to do the opposite, not to people." Gongsun Baishi felt sparsely. Road of the beard.
"This means that, in fact, that group of people is not angry with the emperor. It is a series of actions that hinder the status of the emperor and the righteousness. They can't open their mouths, so they simply aim at the closest person to the emperor." In other words, if I am not good at obstructing your policy, then I will denigrate those who implement it and thus undermine the established line. Ming Lan was holding her belly, worried. The emperor seemed to be angry this time and had already made a clear order to accuse the Shen family. The little Shen came to cry for a while, so she had to ask the old man Gongsun.
Gongsun Baishi smiled and nodded, glanced at Minglan's big belly, hoping that the future Xiaohouye would be so smart.
"What's the big deal?" Minglan's head was as big as a bucket. She remembered that Shen's son was only twelve or thirteen years old this year. The little Shen didn't say anything about how honest and honest her nephew was. What's the matter?
"There is nothing but profit sharing." The corner of Gongsun Baishi's mouth made a ridiculous arc, "Salt affairs, border trade, sea ships, city ships, and the six departments of Jiuqing are everywhere. The important fatality, the emperor wants to call They moved out of their seats to settle their own people. First, to fill the treasury, and second, to make things easier in the future. They don’t do it, that’s all."
"They are too, so many fats and shortcomings, how about spitting out some silver!" Minglan hopes for a harmonious society, everyone speaks up.
Gongsun Baishi sneered: "Take Qian Guogong as an example. His son has been the princess of the Queen Mother of Saint Virtue. He and several other companies have controlled sea-ship commerce for nearly 15 years, and there are less than two or three hundred per year. Wanliang’s income. How much did they turn in? Humph, are they willing to vomit? Just vomit. Once the emperor and the courtier, the emperor has his own cronies to promote."
Ming Lan saw another flutter of snowflakes and silver, and she finally settled down before crying in a low voice: "It's been so many years, and it's time to eat and drink enough, so what if you close your hands!"
"If the heart of a person is contented, how can he be able to look forward to Shu." Gongsun Baishi summed it up simply and neatly, how can there be an end to greed for money.
Ming Lan nodded helplessly. It is indeed rare for a corrupt official to automatically realize it. However, Gongsun can understand this, and others can naturally. As long as Uncle Shen can calm down, plus the full assistance of the Yue family's British government, it will not be a big problem.
However, if the flies don’t bite the seamless eggs, Uncle Shen Guo will get people to watch, and the family is not strictly governed. Although some of the opponents will add oil and vinegar, but some things are true. Gongsun Baishi missed the sentence. A while ago, the Zou family actually wanted to intervene in the purchase of military rations, which was really daunting. After scorning the Shen family, he strongly praised Ming Lan, praised her for her clean management and effective restraint of the people, and the notoriety that Gu Tingye's six relatives did not recognize, the Gu clan members did not ask to find out.
The old man Gongsun has always had a mean mouth, with his eyes facing up, and rarely spit out a few good words. Minglan was exasperated by the praise, and suddenly felt that this wrinkled old man was pleasing to his eyes a lot. I divided the first-class fresh big walnuts that Xiao Shen sent yesterday in half, and took a ganoderma lucidum from the warehouse to improve the old man's thinning bald head.
In a happy mood, I walked back to the house happily. The hanging vines in the spring also smelled of vegetation. Ming Lan was about to reach out to pick a flower bud, and the little peach beside him was eagerly torn down a bunch, master and servant. He smiled at each other, and at this moment, I saw Green Branch hurriedly coming from the other end with sweat on his forehead, but his face was both surprised and happy. After three steps and two steps, she rushed to Minglan's ears, and whispered softly: "Madam, I caught that little hoof." Minglan raised her brows: "What's the matter?"
Lv Zhi saw that there was only a little peach beside her, and whispered: "Your Sydney bird's nest is stewed on the stove, but she ran out."
Ming Lan closed her eyes and sighed: "Come on, let's go over."
Lu Zhi couldn't hide his excitement, but hesitated: "Then... where is the wife...?" She was referring to Wang.
Not waiting for Ming Lan to speak, Xiao Tao yelled first: "We should also persuade what we should persuade. Madam should also be reminded. She will not change her instinct. What can we do. Madam wants to be angry. It’s nothing, besides, we don’t eat wife’s food now."
Green Branch's eyes gleamed and nodded fiercely. She didn't like the color ring for a day or two, because she was afraid that Minglan said she was not generous enough, so she pretended to ask one more question, showing that she was actually very loving. A few of them grew up together since they were young. For those who joined later, it is naturally difficult to be their own. What's more, Caihuan’s enchanting and pretentious pie is simply a classic villain in Fang’s teaching class, allowing them to reflexively produce physiology. disgust.
Ming Lan sighed, looked at her bulging belly, and stroked it gently; if it was just for herself, it would pass by vaguely, but for it, how can someone with dissidents stay on the side of the couch, she Can't take this risk.
After walking slowly back to the house, Xiao Tao first served Ming Lan and put on a pair of soft slippers, leaning against the Kang head, only to see Dan Ju leading the person in. This time she didn't have any hesitation anymore, Qi Yu walked ahead with great pride, followed by the wronged Caihuan and Xia Yu.
When she saw Minglan, she knelt down and said, "Madam, I know I was wrong, so just forgive me this time." While kowtow, she kept defending, "We originally watched The stove, who knows someone came to talk to me, but Xia Yu went out again to clarify... I've only been away for a while... Madam, please spare me..."
Xia Yu was also shocked, and kowtowed together.
Minglan sat quietly on the top, looking from the bergamot-shaped celadon pot on the kang table to the ebony silver filigree small feet, and then saw the colored rings. She has no mercy in her heart, this time, she did it intentionally. Sending a maid is not difficult, as long as the master keeps this thought, catch a handle, and it will be sent immediately.
Caihuan has resentment in her heart, and she doesn't know the depth of friendship with people outside the hospital. People with ulterior motives can easily take the opportunity. Now that she is pregnant, she is about to be extremely cautious, this Caihuan who is both unfaithful and full of improper thoughts, she can't stay by her side.
"Who is looking for you to speak?" Minglan's voice seemed to float in the air.
Caihuan wiped her cheeks and couldn't tell why, Dan Ju sneered and said for her: "To a girl next to her mother, what is she called Linglong."
Ming Lan smiled lightly, Caihuan squatted her head vigorously, and continued: "Madam, it's mine, I was wrong..."
"I heard that when you were chatting in private, you always complained that I didn't ask you to wait close, always far away and cold you." Minglan slowly stated, the color ring pupils tightened, staring bitterly. Looking at Lvzhi and Danju, Xiao Tao said immediately and honestly: "I told my wife." Caihuan turned to stare at her angrily.
"Madam, the slave and maid had something in her mind that should be hit." Caihuan saw that the begging for mercy was invalid, and began to argue, "But when I served with my wife, I wanted to be loyal to my wife, and I did not want to serve my wife... …" She wiped out a tear, "Madam refuses to take me as her own, I just say a little more..."
Minglan slowly straightened up, bent down, looked straight at Caihuan, and said every word: "You are a smart man. It has been a year since you entered Gu's house. What is the situation in the house now? Do you really don't know?" Cai Huan stopped crying, staring at her master blankly. Ming Lan raised the corners of her lips, "You keep saying that you want to serve me for your wife, but what am I afraid of and what I am afraid of? You have looked at it for so long, don't you understand it at all?"
The blood on Caihuan’s face slowly faded. Except for a few big girls who often have to do errands, the girls all over the house are very cautious and rarely interact with outsiders. Every time the lady’s side comes to make friendships. Everyone hid for fear.
"I don’t like to know about things in this courtyard from outside, but these days, you know how many things have been leaked out of your mouth, you know in your heart." Ming Lan slowly said, "You don’t know how great, but It's just another idea." Caihuan didn't think of herself as the master in her heart, so she looked for backers and helpers everywhere, thinking that she could take advantage of her strength.
Colorful ring's lips trembled like a sieve, and she couldn't say anything. She suddenly remembered Ruomei's warning, could it be...Madam, is this going to send her off? She was frightened for a while, and quickly stepped forward to pull on Minglan's skirt, begging loudly: "Madam, I really know that I was wrong, if the husband could have said this earlier, I would definitely not dare!"
Ming Lan shook his head: "You are in the wrong order. I don't want me to trust you first, and then you will be loyal; but you have to make the big guys trustworthy first, and I will treat you as my own person."
Caihuan's face was panicked, tears and powder mixed together, and her face was suddenly blurred, "Yes, but..."
"But you can't wait." Ming Lan finished her, "You are not young, you are one and a half years older than Danju." She was afraid that she would be caught by Ming Lan before she became an aunt. Married off.
"This is really hard for you."
Ming Lan Youyou's final summary, she was completely unsatisfied in her heart, but a little helpless and stunned, Cai Huan was also considered cautious, and asked her to wait for more than half a month to catch this mistake. The room was silent for a while, only to hear Caihuan and Xia Yu's sobbing. Minglan calmed down, turned around and said, "Call Mama Cui and the others in."
Mama Cui led the two sturdy women in. Ming Lan glanced over. Both of them had sleeves bulging. They should have hidden the rope and gag cloth. When Cai Huan and Xia Yu saw this battle, they were already scared.
Ming Lan solemnly looked, and said: "Punishment also means that you understand. Cui Mama, please stop."
Mama Cui has sharpened her knife early, her brows are frowning like an ink fountain, and her face is expressionless: "The rules here, the madam is gold and expensive, you need to be careful when you eat and drink." Minglan's three meals and snacks were cooked by Granny Ge. Dan Ju and other big girls personally took over. The rest of the stew and medicinal supplements are set up in a small stove in this courtyard, and they are supervised by special personnel. There are usually two people in each class, so one goes out and the other You also have to guard and decide not to take the stove out of sight.
"The two of you are looking at the stove today. Xia Yu told you to explain in advance, but Zhong Daoer slid into the house to get a snack, and then laughed and joked with the girl next to him, which was too long; Cai Huan shouldn't have even dared to leave his duties without authorization." Mama Cui said with a stern look, "If you don't punish you today, you won't be able to restrain others in the future. In this courtyard, you can't stay here anymore..."
Before she finished her words, Xia Yu cried out, but Cai Huan calmed her face, straightened her waist and said loudly: "Mother Cui said that, but my wife called to serve her. Mama Cui rushed me so, and my wife asked me when she turned back, but I don’t know how my mother would reply."
Mother Cui was so angry that she was about to scold, only to hear a low and majestic male voice at the door: "What's the matter?"
