When the time comes to leave the Yamen, Mu An closes the files and leaves first. This is the rule of the yamen. Generally, if the person above does not go home, it is not good for the people below to leave first. When Mu An leaves, the waiter and others below will prepare to go home.
Li Shangshu spent most of his time in the cabinet, not the Ministry of Justice.
Mu Anzhi did not go home directly. He wanted to pick up Li Yuhua in the palace. This was Li Yuhua's request in the morning. He had to go to Ci'en Palace to pick him up in the evening to show his love. Anyway, Li Yuhua's little tricks often made Mu Anzhi laugh and cry.
She was young, and Mu Anzhi had a good temperament and was happy to rely on her.
After arriving at Ci'en Palace, they naturally wanted to have dinner together. Li Yuhua personally handed Mu Anzhi tea and water, peeled fruits for him to eat, and chirped like a little bird, "Third brother, there are many cases in the Criminal Department, you know?"
What do you do in the Ministry of Justice?"
"The Ministry of Punishment naturally hears cases."
"Then what case are you in charge of now? You were on duty for the first day, and the Imperial Grandmother is already worried about you."
Empress Dowager Lan listened to Li Yuhua's words with a smile, and Mu Anzhi put down the tea cup, "What I am handling now is a dispute over the inheritance of a virgin, the case of the Zhu family in Yinshui Lane. The case report said that Zhu Jing was also responsible for transporting grain and grass back then.
You must have been granted an official position by His Majesty."
"When the rebellion in Northern Xinjiang was quelled, the Zhu family, as grain merchants, contributed a lot. Did Zhu Jing pass away?"
"Already gone. The person filing the lawsuit is Zhu Jing's only daughter."
Li Yuhua said, "Even if this family has no sons, according to the law, a virgin can still get half of the family wealth. It seems that there are different views on family wealth."
Queen Mother Lan smiled, "I think Yuhua's guess is pretty much right."
"There are many such things in our hometown. Sister Muxiang is the daughter-in-law of Pei Zhuangyuan. When Sister Muxiang's father passed away, her second uncle wanted to seize her family's property."
Mu Anzhi really didn't understand how the people handled such incidents, so he asked, "What happened next?"
"Wherever there is a clan, the clan will take care of this kind of thing, and there will be no trouble at the Yamenmen. But clans are not all fair. People like the Zhu family only file lawsuits when they hear that the family has a big business. Ordinary people only have a few houses and acres of land.
, we can’t make such a big fuss.”
The difficulty of this case is that the family has a large business, and there is another issue: whether the virgin can have independent assets.
When Miss Zhu's father was still alive, he transferred some shop properties to his daughter's name. Once Zhu's father left, the Zhu family regarded these assets as family property. Miss Zhu insisted that these properties were her personal property and could not be included in the family property.
The two sides couldn't settle the dispute, and the lawsuit went from the Imperial Capital to the Ministry of Justice.
The matter is not big, but difficult to resolve.
Because let alone virgins, there is no clear stipulation in the law whether the sons of undivided families have independent property. Now is not the time in the past when independent property purchase was not allowed. The sons of wealthy families have a small village outside.
Even if you live in a small courtyard, it's cheaper to entertain friends even if you don't want to make a fortune. For example, Pei Ruyu's house in the city was given to Mu Anzhi after he left the imperial capital, and Mu Anzhi often took Li Yuhua there.
Logically speaking, this small courtyard is Pei Ruyu's private property.
The boundaries of the law are unclear. To resolve this case, the legal issues must be resolved first. Otherwise, the censor can kill Mu Anzhi just because of his relationship with the censor.
Mu Anzhi had already urged the Ministry of Rites to study whether the children living in the family could have independent financial resources, and the Anzhai wine at the Second Highness's house was in front of him in the blink of an eye.
Li Yuhua specially let Mu Anzhi take a look at the gift list for His Highness the Second Highness's family. This was the first wine they had after His Highness separated the house. The two families were both brothers and neighbors, so they naturally had to treat it seriously.
Mu Anzhi seemed to have no problem, so Li Yuhua said, "We will enter the palace early tomorrow morning, and then we will come with the emperor's grandmother and father. It will be both decent and lively."
Mu Anzhi was at odds with Emperor Mu Xuan. He had never been too lazy to appear in front of Emperor Mu Xuan. He leaned on the couch and crossed his legs and said, "You can enter the palace as soon as you enter. I won't go. I will go to my second brother's house to help entertain him."
entertain."
"Your Highness, Father, won't you come to the palace to welcome the Emperor's grandmother in person?"
"We are here to have Anzhai wine at his house. What is he doing in the palace?" Mu Anzhi said, "Even if you enter the palace, you won't be able to get close to the imperial grandmother. If both palaces come, how can the Lu family not be there?"
In public, the Imperial Grandmother will not let Mr. Lu lose face."
"Whether I can stand it or not, I'll go into the palace and have a lot of fun."
"We won't invite Mr. Lu to our Anzhai wine."
"I don't feel comfortable coming, so it's better not to come." Li Yuhua warned Mu Anzhi in advance, "Third brother, please don't say anything about this matter. I'll mention it to the emperor's grandmother quietly."
"If it's hard to talk to the imperial grandmother, just come and talk to me."
"I know, get up and eat."
Mu Anzhi followed Li Yuhua to the small dining room. Mu Anzhi was happy when he saw the crabs. He sat down and picked one up first, "This is the right time to eat, just for these few days. If it gets colder, there won't be any."
"I heard from Grandma Sun that eating crabs requires nine females and ten males. I asked someone to buy a lot of crabs with round navels, and after a tank full of sauce, I got drunk again. I will make some to save when I buy the ones with pointed navels next month.
Eat until next year." Li Yuhua also likes to eat crabs, but she just thinks it will be troublesome to eat. She also prefers stewed meat. But she has always felt sorry for Mu Anzhi, and Mu Anzhi likes it, so she asked the house to prepare more for Mu Anzhi.
Eat safely.
"Now that we are opening a house, apart from other things, the food will be much cheaper."
"That is."
To eat crabs, you must have wine. Li Yuhua tested the temperature of the wine and poured it for Mu Anzhi. Mu Anzhi deftly peeled off a shell of crab roe and crab meat and put it on a plate for Li Yuhua. Both of them had some ups and downs in their lives.
Having a bunch of relatives here can't be considered lonely, but it is always lonely in the heart. After the two got married, both Mu Anzhi and Li Yuhua felt like they had a family. When they were alone outside, they felt like there was someone at home waiting for them.
When we eat together, whether the vegetables are salty, the soup is rich, the harvest in the fields, or trivial matters at home, there is such a person talking and chattering, and I feel warm in my heart.
And this kind of warmth cannot be brought by a powerful position or gold, jewelry and jade.
East Palace.
After the Ninth Festival, the weather became colder and colder day by day. The princess specially ordered a hot pot to be added to the kitchen. The old hen cooked the soup base, and added a few fresh and tender vegetables. The prince was very happy when he saw it.
He rubbed his slightly cold hands and said, "It's time to eat hot pot."
The princess served the prince and went outside to put on the cloak. She shook the prince's hand and said, "I didn't send someone to bring you a thick cloak. Cousin, why are you still wearing this thin cloak? You look cold."
"The big fur cloak you gave me is for winter. When I saw it, I thought it was the beginning of winter." He joked with a smile. When the prince saw two sets of dishes and chopsticks placed on the table, "You haven't eaten yet?"
"I ate some freshly made snacks at the Imperial Grandmother's place in the afternoon, and I wasn't hungry until the evening." The Crown Princess pulled the Prince to sit down at the table, "Don't worry about wearing winter or autumn clothes from now on, isn't it night? What's the matter?
You're so busy at this late hour, I thought you were having dinner with your father?"
"The autumn taxes from Jiangnan have arrived in the imperial capital. The Ministry of Revenue hasn't had a break at the moment. There are still some busy days."
The Crown Princess first filled a bowl of hot chicken soup and placed it in front of the Prince, "Take good care of yourself first, so that you can survive no matter how busy you are."
The two were talking, and the prince asked in particular, "Are the Anzhai wine gifts for my second brother's house tomorrow ready?"
"Don't worry, I asked my mother to help me read it. We can never compare with the imperial grandmother, father, empress and empress. I also prepared the things that my cousin told me to give to Wang Tanhua. Two sets of the six new books and the four treasures of the study room are also available.
He has two new clothes. Doesn’t he want to observe filial piety? I have prepared plain clothes.”
The prince drank chicken soup while listening to the princess's words. He nodded slightly and said, "This is very good."
"I heard before that Wang Shilang was involved in a lawsuit against the Charity Society. Wang Tanhua is afraid that his official position will not be guaranteed. Cousin, is Wang Tanhua really going to resign?"
"No. There is no evidence for Wang Shilang's matter. How can Wang Tanhua be involved?"
"Mrs. Cheng'en Palace came to the palace a few days ago to intercede with Master Lan. I heard that Master Lan was sentenced to death as a prisoner."
"How is this? The Wang family really has no conclusive evidence to prove that the Wang family is involved in the case of the Charity Society. Chief Lan is the chief culprit, and even the execution of the prisoner has taken advantage of him." The prince said disgustedly, "You blind bastard, a serious fifth-grade chief,
Mrs. Cheng'en Palace opened her mouth to do this evil thing of annihilating her children and grandchildren."
"The Imperial Grandmother did not agree. The Imperial Grandmother reprimanded Madam Cheng'en Palace when she made an appointment. Some of the palace servants' eyes were red and swollen when they saw Madam Cheng'en Palace leaving."
"What kind of person is the Imperial Grandmother? How could she agree to this?" The prince sneered softly, as if he was laughing at Mrs. Cheng'en's overestimation of her own abilities. "You are surrounded by the Imperial Grandmother, and you can learn from the Imperial Grandmother one-tenth of the way."
Already."
The green vegetables in the pot had just rolled around, and the Crown Princess took them out and put them in the Prince's bowl. "I would like to learn, but the Imperial Grandmother may not be willing to teach you. Don't you know, isn't it the first day for His Highness the Third Prince to be on duty?
Grandma specially sent the longevity dining room to prepare lunch for His Highness the Third Prince."
"You're so sour, you don't even need to put vinegar in your dishes."
The Crown Princess was amused and said softly, "Don't blame me for being jealous. They are all grandsons. When my cousin and His Highness were first on duty, I am afraid that the Imperial Grandmother was not so caring."
"The imperial grandmother has always had a bowl of water balanced. If this was what she wanted, my second brother and I should have it. Since we don't have it, it shows that it's not what she meant." The prince sighed, "The third brother and sister must have entered the palace again.
, Oh, she has so many tricks, where is this unruly person from?"
The Crown Princess couldn't stop laughing, and the gold bird holding beads on her temples swayed in the flickering light, "Don't always say such things to make me laugh."
"Look, jealousy can be good for a while." The prince ate his meal leisurely and took a sip of water. "Three siblings are like this. If you want anything, just tell the imperial grandmother directly. The imperial grandmother has always been kind to her grandchildren.
"
"No one can be as shameless as her. She will squeal at every bite she eats. Once she enters the palace, she will spend the whole day. She will come here early in the morning and will not leave until dark."
"Then you can play together."
"I also want to be friends with her. You don't know what she is like. She always wants to be the first to show up in everything. My second brother and sister-in-law and I are both sisters-in-law. It would be a coward to let her steal the limelight."
"You, you have just arrived, and now you can't hold your breath anymore." The prince put down his silver chopsticks and said slowly, "A person's life is very long, so there is no need to fight for the length of time, let alone the glory of the moment."
"Then what are you fighting for?"
"Don't fight for anything, just be your crown princess steadily. This is magnanimity."
