After eating the Double Ninth Festival wine and admiring the Double Ninth Festival flowers, Li Yuhua started to light up the fire in the house. Ordinary people only light the fire in the winter. Li Yuhua is afraid of the cold, so her house started to light up the fire in mid-September. She looked at the household accounts and asked people to
Send all the charcoal fires issued to subordinate officials. Although the charcoal fires are graded according to official rank, Li Yuhua has always treated others with dignity. Even the lowest subordinate officials use bamboo charcoal that rarely produces smoke.
For example, Du Changshi and Hua Changshi gave them the best silver frost charcoal.
Li Yuhua would often pick and choose, worried that his subordinates would be snobbish and neglect those subordinate officials with lower official positions.
Du Changshi was a handsome man who could not leave his body even in the winter. He was young and strong and was not afraid of the cold. Hua Changshi was different. This elder was old, and the charcoal distributed by the palace was enough for his family.
Mrs. Hua often said, "Being an errand in the Imperial Academy for a lifetime is no more affordable than being here under the Third Highness." Summer hair and ice winters are charcoal. On weekdays, there are constant rewards of melons, fruits, clothing and materials. Although the old man's salary is not rich, he usually does not need much money.
, I can buy more pens and paper for the children to read.
Du Changshi and Hua Changshi were gathered together to talk about Cheng Yu's case. The Ministry of Punishment was not just greedy for money when it came to investigating the case. Where was the corrupt money, the origins of the money, and the place where it was stored?
Cheng Yu's case went so smoothly that it's hard to imagine. The banknotes hidden in the house and the amount of money in the bank account all match the amount. The boy who deposits money every year, what kind of clothes was he wearing when he came to deposit money recently? Dachang Bank
The shopkeeper can also speak for himself.
Hua Changshidu said, "It went very smoothly."
"That's right. Cases of embezzlement are not uncommon. It is indeed rare for them to go so smoothly." Du Changshi shook his head and sneered. General Wei took Cheng's daughter as his concubine. Cheng Yu's official position in the army was supported by the Wei family. Even if the evidence is conclusive, the Wei family
It is as quiet and white as a white lotus that emerges from the mud but remains unstained. I don’t know what the emperor is thinking.
Although Cheng Yu died, the remaining officials still wanted to investigate. How could a salary officer have the courage to embezzle military pay? However, in the end, only one hundred households were found guilty, which is depressing.
Mu Anzhi has no enmity with the Wei family of Xuanjia Wei, and Du Changshi has an old relationship with the Wei family. However, in this case, he knew that he had been fooled, but there was no focus on it. Du Changshi was unlucky.
Holding the fan bone, he looked up and saw the chamberlain coming from outside. Du Changshi opened the window and let in the autumn breeze. Du Changshi smiled and said, "Little Jue Eunuch, what are you doing here?"
This little Orange Eunuch is your Majesty's new chamberlain. He is young and has a naturally smiling face. It is thanks to Mu Anzhi that he catches your Majesty's eye. Mu Anzhi has always been cold-faced, and the chamberlains around Emperor Mu Xuan are very worried about Mu Anzhi.
An Zhi was the one who delivered the oral message, but it was this Little Ju Eunuch. No matter how cold Mu Anzhi was, he always looked the same. Emperor Mu Xuan saw that he still had some looks, so he promoted him.
Eunuch Xiaoju was followed by two young chamberlains. Hearing this, he quickly went to the window and bowed his hands, "Greetings to Mr. Du and Mr. Hua. I am following His Majesty's instructions to invite His Highness to the palace to see you. I have to trouble you to help you."
Send a message."
"Why are you so anxious? It's such a cold day. I think it's going to snow this day. Come in and have a sip of hot tea."
Hua Changshi admired Du Changshi's ability to make friends with the servants. He had been a Qingliu official for most of his life, but he finally had some airs that he couldn't let go.
"Thank you for the tea, sir. I don't dare to delay it today. It's a matter over in Northern Xinjiang."
Du Changshi immediately said, "Wait a moment, I will take you to see His Highness."
Mu Anzhi hurriedly entered the palace without even wearing his cloak. He was tall and had long steps, and he strode all the way past. Little Jue's father-in-law trotted behind him.
In the Imperial Study Room, Emperor Mu Xuan was talking with General Wei and Marquis Yong'an. Next to him was a young general who was unfamiliar to him. His lips were red and his teeth were white, his eyes were faintly aura, and his appearance was very handsome.
After taking a look, Emperor Mu Xuan smiled and said, "Don't look, you don't know him. This is Ji Ran. His father is under the command of Marquis Lu. This time he led the scouts back to the imperial capital. I think Ji Ran is very good, so I won't let him
I’m back to Northern Xinjiang. Old Wei, didn’t you just arrest a hundred households there, is there anyone in this position?”
General Wei said shamefully, "Although the incident of corruption in the past has not occurred, it has caused more than a hundred soldiers to suffer grievances for many years. I want to choose a reliable and safe candidate for the Hundred Households, but I have not yet considered a good candidate."
.”
"What do you think of Ji Ran?"
General Wei said quickly, "Old minister, I see that General Ji is so heroic. It's very good."
"Let Ji Ran pass. Keep an eye on him. He is young, so don't let others bully him." Emperor Mu Xuan said.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I can't help but like a young talent like General Ji. How can I let someone bully him?" General Wei said with a smile, "I often envy General Lin for having a talented person like General Xiao Jiang.
Now I finally don’t have to envy General Lin.”
Ji Ran was very smart and saluted General Wei, respectfully and intimately, "I have met the General."
"You don't need to be so polite. Your family has been serving as generals for generations, and you don't want to be outsiders." General Wei personally helped Ji Ran up. Seeing his outstanding appearance and heroic spirit, he really liked him, and the smile on his face deepened.
Mu Anzhi came here in a hurry because he thought there must be news from Northern Xinjiang. Unexpectedly, after he came over, he heard Emperor Mu Xuan tell him about General Tongji. Mu Anzhi was a little anxious and wanted to inquire about news about his old friend.
The prince saw Mu Anzhi's anxiety and smiled and said, "Northern Xinjiang is very stable. Magistrate Pei and Lord Bai have both made great achievements. Third brother, there is no need to worry."
How could Mu Anzhi not be anxious? He said, "As soon as the prince said this, I became even more anxious. How can great achievements be achieved so easily? Are you in danger?" After saying this, he looked towards Emperor Mu Xuan.
Everyone here except Ji Ran knows that Mu Anzhi and Pei Ruyu have an unusual friendship. Emperor Mu Xuan said, "Show the third son the memorial from Marquis Lu. If you are in such a hurry, don't break out in a sweat on a cold day."
The chamberlain brought the memorial and handed it to Mu Anzhi.
Marquis Lu's memorial was written in detail and detailed, but Mu Anzhi broke out in a cold sweat. It turned out that Master Bai had made a rare and powerful bow, but he wanted the cannibals to target him.
Hou Qin led the guards and followed Xizuo to the rebels' lair. Not only did he rescue Lord Bai, he also captured the fourth prince of the Dashi Kingdom.
Mu Anzhi was full of accusations against Lu Hou, "This is really dangerous, and the same is true for Lu Hou. How can Lord Bai be allowed to take such a risk if he is an unparalleled genius and such a weak woman! If there is any good or bad,
Not only did Ruyu lose his wife, he just had a son last year. Doesn’t this mean that the child has lost his mother?"
Even General Wei listened and didn't know where to turn his eyes. He thought to himself, Your Highness, Third Highness, you really don't have any public conscience. Emperor Mu Xuan even said, "Okay, okay, Mr. Bai is very safe, just stop talking."
A few words. It is a great achievement to be able to capture Prince Da Shi alive this time! Madam Bai was frightened. It is rare for a heroine like her to make a new bow for the court. This time, Lord Bai takes the lead."
Emperor Mu Xuan said, "Pei Ruyu also contributed a lot."
Mu Anzhi didn't appreciate it, "Ruyu would rather go into battle and kill the enemy by himself than let a woman be put in danger. What's more, she is his wife. I really don't know what kind of plan Lu Hou has made!"
"Oh, so that's it. Thank you for telling me, then it won't be his credit." Emperor Mu Xuan said.
"No, no, if it were me, I wouldn't let my wife take risks to gain credit."
Emperor Mu Xuan's face was not very good at the moment, so Yong'an Marquis tried to smooth things over, "Your Majesty, Third Highness, Your Majesty just said that next year, Magistrate Pei and Lord Bai will return to the imperial capital to meet Your Majesty. You are close friends, and we will be able to meet each other when we meet."
Not to mention Mu Anzhi's cheerful look, Emperor Mu Xuan was angry and funny, "Looking at this look, there is no stability at all."
The prince said, "It's no wonder that the third brother is so happy. In the blink of an eye, Ruyu has been in northern Xinjiang for three years. He has governed a small Xiaoyuewan County with great success. Mr. Bai is also a genius in the world. They and his wife are really worthy of the title."
The combination of talent and appearance is a harmony made in heaven.”
General Wei also joked, "Pei Zhuangyuan's article ministers don't understand, but Lord Bai's repeating crossbow is really unique in the world. It is a weapon in the army when used in mounted ambush. Your Majesty, when Lord Bai returns,
Imperial Capital, it’s really amazing that you introduced me to me!”
Marquis Yong'an joked, "Old Wei, you have to put this evil aspect under control. Mr. Bai, a weak woman, don't scare others with your appearance."
General Wei was dissatisfied, "My mother always praises me for my prowess!"
It made everyone laugh.
Mu Anzhi resigned from the Imperial Palace and did not return to the Ministry of Punishment. He went directly to Ci'en Palace. Empress Dowager Lan was about to stay with Li Yuhua for dinner. When she saw Mu Anzhi coming over, she couldn't help but smile and said, "Is it possible that you came here because of the fragrance? I'll discuss it with your wife."
Let’s have roast leg of lamb for lunch.”
"My grandson just came out from His Majesty's place. He came to the Imperial Grandmother after looking at the time." Mu Anzhi went over and sat next to Queen Mother Lan. Li Yuhua wanted to get up and pour tea for him. Mu Anzhi said, "Don't pour it, I won't drink it."
.Come here and let me tell you a happy event!"
"What's the matter?" Li Yuhua asked, sitting on the other side of Queen Mother Lan.
"Just good news from Northern Xinjiang. This time Lu Hou captured Prince Dashi alive in Northern Xinjiang. Master Bai also made great achievements. His Majesty said that Ruyu and Master Bai will return to the court next year to see Your Majesty." Mu An asked with dancing eyebrows, "
Is that good news?"
Li Yuhua was extremely pleasantly surprised and quickly asked what was going on.
After Mu Anzhi finished talking about the matter, Li Yuhua chanted Buddha's name and said, "Fortunately, there was no danger. Sister Muxiang must have been shocked." Then, Li Yuhua asked a very practical question, "So this time, Sister Muxiang,
Do you need to be promoted?"
"Of course I can be promoted. Your Majesty said that Sir Bai is the chief contributor." Mu Anzhi joked, "Sister Muxiang has been promoted so fast that she is now as high as the Jade Official."
"You don't understand this. People in the Imperial Capital are quite snobbish. When Sister Muxiang first came to the Imperial Capital, when she ate two extra drawers of steamed buns in Taipingju, some people laughed at her for eating so much. I wonder how ignorant these people are.
"Li Yuhua said, "It's strange that Pei Zhuangyuan is so well-born and famous, so that women like her so much. When they know that Sister Muxiang is married to Pei Zhuangyuan, they look down on Sister Muxiang and laugh at her easily. As if she is more than worthy.
It’s not like Pei Zhuangyuan, what does this ignorant woman know? At the beginning, Sister Muxiang didn’t really want to marry Pei Zhuangyuan. It was the old man of the Pei family who had to carry out the baby marriage three or four times, and still let Pei Zhuangyuan take care of it.
I met Sister Muxiang with great auspiciousness. To be honest, if Pei Zhuangyuan had not been born well, Sister Muxiang would not have married him."
Li Yuhua became proud and even praised her sister Muxiang.
Queen Mother Lan was very happy when she heard this, "Then next year when Master Bai returns to the imperial capital, I can see him."
"Grandma Imperial, you must like her very much. Sister Muxiang is a very kind person and has a very kind heart. She used to love to cook food in her hometown, and she knew how to make it. Her baked scallion pancakes can fragrant half of the village, and the children in the village
I like her the most. She goes there when she smells the fragrance. If she makes a little, she gives half of this and half of that. If she makes a lot, she gives one to each person. When we didn’t have much money, we cut things into pieces.
Let the children eat small pieces, and they are not stingy at all." Li Yuhua said, "Pei Zhuangyuan is also blessed to be able to marry my sister Muxiang."
Mu Anzhi looked at Li Yuhua's serious compliments with a smile and said, "Ruyu's luck is still slightly worse than mine."
Li Yuhua smiled sweetly at Mu Anzhi's smile, nodded and said, "That's for sure!"
