Chapter 709: His Highness will take up a post in the Ministry of War
"Uncle/Master."
Zhuoyu and Li Yueying came around, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Uncle Master, what's wrong? Is Liu Hanlin still alive?"
"Sir, have you caught that terrible Ah Piao?"
Qi Baoer answered the two of them in one sentence, "Piao is dead, and Liu Hanlin is dead too."
Zhuoyu: "Ah!~~"
Li Wenying: "You deserve it."
At this time, Dali happened to come in. He happened to hear something about death, and curiously asked: "Who died, and who deserves it?"
Da Ling was always kind to his servants in the house, and he was naturally even more polite to Zhuoyu, the younger sister's nephew, and Li Yueying, who was not considered a servant.
Therefore, Zhuoyu and Li Yueying were not afraid of him, and they told each other what happened to them at night.
After they finished talking, Qi Baoer also told them what happened next, including Ru Niang's life experience.
The two girls, who were originally extremely afraid of Ru Niang, began to sympathize with her again after learning about Ru Niang's life.
However, the two girls had the right perspective, and they did not feel that what she did after her death was right just because they sympathized with Ru Niang. They just felt that...
How should I put it, it’s quite sad.
Li Yueying: "I didn't expect that Liu Hanlin was a secret agent of an enemy country in his previous life."
No wonder he is so scumbag.
Qi Baoer corrected her, "It's not the previous life, it's the fifth life."
In the past nearly a thousand years, if that girl hadn't been thrown into hell and punished, she might have lived in more than five lives.
However, he has no chance to reincarnate in the future.
Da Liang: "..., sister, is this the point?"
No matter how many lives he has lived, it is true that his soul is a scumbag anyway.
Zhuoyu and Li Yueying knew that the eldest master must have something to do when he came to see his uncle at night, so they both retreated silently.
Then they looked at each other and flashed away again.
They are going to the Liu Mansion to see the follow-up and see the reactions of the senior officials in the Liu Mansion so that they can tell Xiao Yang to let her vent her anger. Their order should be considered completed... right?
"Brother, what's the matter?" Qi Bao'er took off his cloak and hung it on the screen.
My sister was already older, and it was still late at night. To avoid suspicion, Da Lang did not go into the house, but just stood at the door and talked to her.
"Sister, I plan to go back to the General's Mansion tomorrow, and my father and grandma are also going to stay in the General's Mansion for a while."
Qi Baoer paused as he walked towards the desk, "... well, grandma hasn't gone to the General's Mansion to see it yet. If I get off work early tomorrow, I will also go to the General's Mansion."
Da Liang smiled and said, "It's not that I don't like you returning to the General's Mansion, but we'd better say goodbye for the time being. You have just taken up the post of Minister, and the New Year has just passed, so you have a lot of things to do at hand.
There’s no rush to go after you’ve been busy for a while.”
The Princess's Mansion is close to the palace, and it only takes a few steps to walk.
These useless family members can't help much at the moment, but it can be considered a help if they can let me worry less and take more time to rest.
In fact, my grandma is not willing to leave my sister's side. It's not because I have to worry about the Ministry of War and them at home. When I return to the general's mansion, they will take care of me. My sister should also be able to rest assured. They can also save my sister.
Some thoughts.
How could Qi Baoer not guess what grandpa and grandma were thinking?!
He smiled and nodded. The Ministry of War has been busy recently. It would be a good idea for my grandma to stay at the General's Mansion for a while, so as not to be lonely.
….-
Ministry of War.
As soon as the meals were placed in the side room of the minister's office, Qian Wentong slipped in curiously.
In the past, Qian Wentong was not as polite as Shang Chengfeng, and even less so with Qi Baoer.
He didn't need the guards next to him to wait on him, so he went to pack his food and sit down, "Sir, something big happened to the Liu family last night."
Qi Baoer drank slowly while holding a bowl of soup, and for the first time he showed no interest in Qian Wentong's melon.
However, Qian Wentong didn't notice. He was eating the braised pork ribs piece by piece, and said, "Sir, your cook is so skilled. Even the wife of a low-ranking official can't make it taste like this."
Ye's family is cheerful and seems to be a careless master, but he actually has good cooking skills.
It is said that Mr. Ye's cooking skills made Qian Wentong's heart tighten.
"If it's delicious, eat more of it." The cook she hired from the East Palace is considered an imperial chef, so he can't be good at cooking.
Qian Wentong took it for granted that he was welcome to eat this bite.
After lunch, when the two of them were taking a walk to eat, Qian Wentong thought about the Liu Mansion again.
"Sir, I heard that Liu Hanlin from the Liu Mansion was killed last night, but the strange thing is that the Liu Mansion did not report the crime. It was said that Liu Hanlin died of serious injuries."
Qi Baoer: "..."
No, is it possible that the Liu Mansion is planning to blame Da Sima for Liu Hanlin's death?
Qian Wentong pursed his lips and nodded, "Da Sima had someone whip Liu Hanlin a few days ago. Although Da Sima didn't do it himself, it was the order given by Da Sima, and the person who whipped him was also Da Sima's subordinate.
Down.
The doctors who went to see Liu Hanlin's injury, including the imperial physician, also said that Liu Hanlin's injury was very serious and had hurt his heart.
Now Liu Hanlin suddenly died...
People from the Liu family didn’t go to the Sima family’s house to cause trouble, but there was just such a rumor.”
Naturally, the Liu family did not dare to openly say that Liu Hanlin was killed by Da Sima, but Liu Hanlin had just died last night, and those rumors came out early this morning. Any fool could guess where the rumors came from.
But I guess it's the same thing. It's really hard for the Sima family to argue with the Liu family, at least not openly for the time being.
It would be fine if the Liu family brought trouble to the Da Sima family. Da Sima could order an autopsy, but the Liu family was just silently preparing for the funeral. If the Da Sima family came to look for trouble at this time because of a rumor, then they would really have fulfilled the saying of "bullying"
That's too much to say.
Of course, this matter actually did not have a big impact on the Grand Sima Mansion, even in terms of reputation. After all, at the position of Grand Sima, to put it bluntly, he actually ordered Liu Hanlin to be beaten to death for bullying their daughter. Your Liu family
I didn’t dare to say anything, let alone an outsider.
It's just this kind of thing. If it doesn't have any impact, it won't have any impact, but it doesn't affect people.
"Sir, will your Highness really take up a position in our Ministry of War in the future?"
He did not go to the morning court in the morning. He only knew that after the Lord went to the court, he was sent to the East Palace, and then such a gossip came out.
but···
Qian Wentong glanced at the small courtyard in the back that had been tidied up all morning. As soon as the master came back, he ordered people to tidy up the vacant courtyard in the back. I guess the news should not just be spread through gossip, right?!
Sure enough, Qi Baoer raised his chin and pointed in the direction of the courtyard behind him, "Your Highness is sorry that our Ministry of War only has one minister and one minister, and I have just taken office."
Qian Wentong smiled, "Then our Ministry of War will be in good hands from now on. At least when we ask the Ministry of Household Affairs for military pay, they won't dare to drag it out anymore."
Qi Bao'er also laughed, "That's true."
Speaking of military pay, Qian Wentong wanted to think of something, "Sir, do you remember Lu Haibo? The one who has been raising disabled soldiers."
Qi Baoer nodded, "The one who has been to the Ministry of War?"
Qian Wentong nodded repeatedly, "As far as I know, he has raised more than 3,000 old, weak and disabled soldiers.
Before the Chinese New Year, one of his shops accidentally caught fire. The cause of the fire was that a veteran working in his shop fell asleep due to sleepiness and forgot to extinguish the sparks in the stove before going to bed.
The fire was quite strong and burned a lot of shops on the left and right."
