Chapter 573: I ate a big melon
Chapter 573 I ate a big melon
The prince's mood is very complicated, but he will not doubt his father if there is any possibility, but all signs point to his father.
Yeah, Cheng Engong has retired, which shows that he is not a fool, how could he go to private gold mining? It can only be the father, the person behind him is the father, and he was instructed by the father to mine gold mines.
Gold mines are owned by the imperial court. Isn’t it ridiculous for an emperor to secretly let his courtiers mine gold mines for mere gold?
Not only ridiculous, but very sad! In the end, the emperor father is the silverfish of the country!
The wise, benevolent, wise and mighty father collapsed in his heart! Disappointment flashed in the prince's eyes.
The position of the crown prince...how should I put it? It was picked up. The imperial brothers in front fought too hard, dead, disabled, rebellious, he took the position of prince without any effort. Even so, his father still taught him patiently. He thought that he could inherit a peaceful and prosperous world from his father, but he didn't expect...
It was only when his father was assassinated that he took charge of the country and realized that the treasury was about to become an empty shell. Even so, he did not complain about his father, and tried his best to support the household department. He thought that no matter how difficult it was, it was nothing more than that, but he didn't expect the reality to slap him hard again.
Father still has something to hide from him! This is the one thing he discovered, is there anything else he didn't discover?
Why does the emperor want so much gold? To repair the imperial mausoleum? The crown prince thinks it should not be, at least not entirely.
Facing the angry eyes of the father, the prince swallowed the words again, the father would not say anything. The crown prince stood up slowly, "Father's dragon body has not improved, it can be seen that he was disturbed by the previous court. In the future, anyone who says something in front of father will be punished as treason."
Glancing left and right, "Father, please take care of the dragon body and take care of it for the rest of your life! I will come to see you in a few days!"
Is this going to put him under house arrest? A burst of anger surged from the bottom of Emperor Taikang's heart and rushed straight to his forehead. "You..." just said a word, and the whole person collapsed on the bed, gasping for breath, with a "ho ho" sound from his throat, his face suffocated. Get flushed.
This frightened all the eunuchs and maids in the hall, "Emperor doctor, please call the imperial doctor!"
The prince only paused and then quickly walked out of the palace.
Wen Jiuxiao returned to the mansion, and took sick leave the next day, saying that he occasionally caught a cold. The other ministers expressed their understanding. After all, Xiaowen Shangshu has been busy for more than half a month, and even hard-nosed people can't stand it!
Only the prince knew in his heart that with his shrewdness, he must have seen something and didn't want to get into this muddy water.
That’s all, if you ask for leave, just ask for leave, it’s hard for him these days.
After all, it is not something glorious. In fact, the prince does not want to know too much about Jiuxiao, so he entrusted the investigation to his confidants.
Yu Zhi was looking at the account book sent up from below, glanced at the account book, and at Wen Jiuxiao. This man who claimed to be sick at home with a cold was occupying her soft couch at the moment, with his head resting on the pillow and his legs crossed.
Yu Zhi suddenly remembered something, "Uncle Zhongqin's mansion was raided, and Uncle Zhongqin was ordered to be beheaded. What about the others? What are they charged with?"
Wen Jiuxiao said: "His two sons are the same as him, and the others are exiled?"
"Exile? The female relatives will follow?" Whether it is going south or north, this road is not easy!
Wen Jiuxiao nodded, "It stands to reason, but if the natal family is willing to take her back, they can be exempted from exile."
"This is a way, but I'm afraid few families will take it up?" The married daughter poured water, even if the parents love the daughter, brothers, brothers and daughters-in-law, would they be willing? After all, no one wants to have an aunt at home who is away from home.
Wen Jiuxiao turned his head, and said: "Indeed! Uncle Zhongqin's house has a family of more than twenty people, and only two female family members have been taken back by their natal family, and one of them is Mrs. Zhongqin. She took the book and left, and left Very neat."
Yu Zhi paused, "It's understandable, she doesn't have much affection with Uncle Zhongqin, who is a husband and wife. Once Uncle Zhongqin died, she had no children, and she didn't even have anyone to rely on. Why should she be exiled and suffer that crime?" Her eyes After a flash, "Her natal family is not bad, and I probably feel sorry for her." It was not voluntary for her to marry Uncle Zhongqin to fill in the house.
Wen Jiuxiao snorted, "What's the matter? On the second day after returning to her mother's house, she left with her former fiancé. She was engaged at the beginning, and it was her family who wanted to climb high, so they forced her to marry into Zhongqin Uncle's mansion. Her life in the uncle's mansion was not good. Uncle Zhongqin had two legitimate sons and three concubine sons. He didn't plan to let her have children from the beginning. But somehow she became pregnant, but When she was more than five months old, she was raped by her stepson and had a miscarriage, and she has never been pregnant since then."
"Her fiancé is infatuated, and has not been married since the divorce. Oh, her fiancé gave her enough benefits when her natal family went to release her."
"Is it biological?" Yu Zhi couldn't help doubting.
Wen Jiuxiao nodded, "Yes!"
"Hmph, this is not treating girls as human beings!" Yu Zhi was very angry, this is no longer patriarchal, this is not treating girls as human beings! Is the girl not their child?
Suddenly, her heart moved, "Her fiancé?" She looked at Wen Jiuxiao.
Wen Jiuxiao nodded slowly, "It's that person!"
Yu Zhi...
No wonder Mrs. Zhongqin took such a big risk to have a private meeting with him! Well, Mrs. Zhongqin's actions may not be right, but Yu Zhi really wants to say that Uncle Zhongqin deserves it!
After eating the melon, Yu Zhi felt a little displeased with Wen Jiuxiao, so why was she lying leisurely while she was busy? No, she doesn't want to work.
"Third Master, come here!" Yu Zhi blinked at Wen Jiuxiao, misty and charming.
Oh, and this good thing? Wen Jiuxiao stood up from the soft couch as soon as he stretched his waist, "What's the matter?"
Yu Zhi got up, pulled him to sit on her seat, and leaned on his back, coquettishly, "I feel dizzy, please help me, third master, read the account books for me. Please, please!" Kissed him on the cheek.
Wen Jiuxiao...
It turned out that he was arrested to look at the account books, but he was secretly happy. Looking at Yu Xiaozhi's solicitous little appearance... Forget it, just look at it, isn't it just an account book, how difficult can it be?
Wen Jiuxiao finished reading the two account books, and when he looked up, he found that Yu Xiaozhi, who had promised to accompany him to add fragrance to his red sleeves, had already fallen asleep on the soft couch, and couldn't help laughing!
His Yu Xiaozhi, why are you so lazy? So good at coaxing people!
However, who made him happy.
Wen Jiuxiao walked over gently, picked up the blanket and covered her body, and went back to continue looking at the account books.
Jing Anhou finally found out that his youngest son was being bullied in school, and at the same time he also found out about the little girl next door who took his son to find his father.
