There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 639
[Chapter 639, Great Cleansing]
scene of the big cleansing and house raiding was chaotic, with screams and cries one after another. A moment ago, the high-ranking officials who held high positions of power were being thrown into the dust and trampled on by
others. Friendly too.
Xiao Yeyang didn’t want to spoil Daohua’s eyes, so he led her away from here.
On the way, Daohua and Su Shiyu were a little silent.
Just now they saw several official ladies who had chatted and had tea together, how beautiful they were once, and how embarrassed they are now, which made them feel a little bit sad.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the street.
A man in brocade clothes was riding a horse, running rampant in the street and running desperately. Behind him, a group of officers and soldiers were chasing him frantically.
Seeing the crowd dodging around, Xiao Yeyang quickly put Daohua in his arms to avoid collisions around him.
Seeing the man in brocade clothes and the officers and soldiers getting farther and farther away, suddenly, with a ‘whoosh’, a sharp arrow pierced through the air and pierced the man in brocade clothes’ back accurately.
The man in brocade clothes was also a ruthless person, even if he was hit by an arrow, he still gritted his teeth and galloped forward.
“Bang!”
Just as the man in brocade was about to run out of the street, a figure suddenly appeared at the end of the street, and slapped the fast-running horse.
The horse was directly knocked to the ground.
The brocade-clothed man on horseback was also thrown out and fell heavily to the ground.
“This person’s internal martial arts has been slightly improved.” Yan Wentao said.
Xiao Yeyang narrowed his eyes: “This man is also Jin Lingwei, called He Wen, he is the commander’s confidant, remember his appearance, we will definitely deal with him in the future.”
Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai nodded.
Soon, a team of officers and soldiers arrived, drew out their sabers and restrained Young Master Jinyi.
With the knife on his neck, the man in brocade looked up to the sky and laughed three times, then looked at He Wen angrily: “If you want to find out the news from me, don’t even think about it!” After speaking, he slammed on the knife edge and wiped his own neck.
Xiao Yeyang quickly covered Daohua’s eyes, and said calmly: “Get out of here.”
Seeing that Su Shiyu’s legs were a little weak, Yan Wenkai immediately picked her up and quickly followed Xiao Yeyang and Daohua . After the flower.
Su Shiyu didn’t recover until he came to Liulipu.
Seeing that she was frightened, Yan Wenkai blamed himself terribly: “I wouldn’t have brought you out if I knew it.” As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yeyang immediately drew
his eyes.
Although Daohua wasn’t so frightened that her legs went limp, she was obviously affected, and she didn’t speak a word all the way.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Dao Hua: “The Provincial Mansion may be a little chaotic these few days, it’s best to go back to Ningmen Mansion as soon as possible.”
Dao Hua nodded: “I will tell my mother.” Then she paused For a moment, “Are you going to stay here?” Xiao
Yeyang shook his head: “It’s not our job to arrest people. After confirming the time to go back, tell me, and I will go with you.”
To Yan Yan Wenkai: “You guys send Miss Su back, pick up Auntie, and then come to pick up the rice flowers.”
Yan Wenkai nodded, and sent Su Shiyu back to the Su family together with Su Hongxin and Yan Wentao.
As soon as they left, Daohua looked at Xiao Yeyang: “Why did you copy so many officials at once? Is it because of that list?”
Xiao Yeyang nodded.
Daohua was a little worried: “You didn’t reveal your identities, right? Except for so many people, the Eighth King, the Eighth King will definitely beat you up.”
Xiao Yeyang smiled lightly: “Don’t worry, I know it well. That energy will take care of Zhongzhou’s affairs.”
Seeing his relaxed expression, Daohua slowly let go of her worries.
After sitting for a while, Yan Wentao and Yan Wenkai brought Mrs. Li over. Daohua got into the carriage and went back to Li’s residence together.
Su’s study.
Mrs. Su looked at the list of officials who ransacked the house that the housekeeper had inquired about, and frowned. After a while, he looked at Mr. Su and Su Hongxin and said, “Fortunately, our family is married to the Yan family.”
He wanted to say Fortunately, that boy Yan Wenkai took a fancy to Shiyu and informed them of the news in advance, allowing them to make a correct judgment and promptly discard the concubine who had become involved in the party of the Eight Kings. Otherwise, the list of people who searched the house today There is their home.
Third Master Su nodded. He who once looked down upon the Yan family was quite satisfied with Yan Wenkai, the son-in-law. Su Hongxin, who had seen the tragic situation of being copied, was also terrified. It turned out that the high-ranking officials and aristocratic families in the past could be destroyed so easily. behavior and desire.
Mrs. Li was worried that something had happened in the Ningmen Mansion, so she asked Daohua and the others to pack up and prepare to go back tomorrow morning when they returned to the Li Mansion.
Fortunately, the Ningmen mansion was not affected much, only the house of a fellow acquaintance was confiscated, and the rest of the officials were not implicated.
Yan Mansion.
On the day Mrs. Li came back, Yan Zhigao left the office early.
“Tell me quickly, how is the situation in the provincial government?” As soon as
he returned to the main courtyard, Yan Zhigao waved his servants back, and eagerly asked Mrs. Li about the situation in the provincial government.
Mrs. Li told Yan Zhigao the list of officials who were copied from the provincial government.
After hearing this, Yan Zhigao was silent for a while: “The emperor is going to punish the eight kings.”
Mrs. Li: “I don’t care what the eight kings are or not, as long as our family is not involved.” The thought of being copied Mrs. Li was cold all over after seeing the fate of the female family members who left the house.
Yan Zhigao: “During this period of time, you must restrain the servants in the mansion, and don’t fall into the shoes of others.”
Madam Li nodded: “I know.”
The purge of officials in Zhongzhou, Fenxi, and Jiguang provinces shocked the entire ruling and opposition parties.
Baiguan didn’t care much about which officials’ homes were ransacked. What they cared about was that they hadn’t heard anything about it beforehand.
By the time they know, the emperor has already decided on the list of substitute officials, and there is no chance for anyone they want to install.
“The emperor’s methods are becoming more and more vigorous.”
The awe of the emperor in the hearts of the officials has deepened.
After the queen mother in the palace heard the news, she was also silent for a long time, and finally sheaved a long sigh, and then sent her confidant mother-in-law to Cheng’engong’s mansion to spread the word, telling Cheng’engong to restrain the Jiang family’s children.
The emperor no longer needs the Jiang family to deal with the Eight Kings.
The Jiang family will be as unrestrained as before, and the sword in the emperor’s hand will be swung at them sooner or later.
“This time I heard that Jin Lingwei made great contributions again.”
After the morning court, Xue Xiangchen, the commander of Jin Lingwei, let all eyes fall on him, and walked back to Jin Lingwei’s office without squinting.
Seeing He Wen coming back, Xue Xiangchen quickly backed away, and when there were only the two of them left in the room, he asked, “But we found out, is the person in Prince Ping’s mansion the emperor’s special commander?” He Wen blamed himself: “My lord
, my subordinates are useless, I didn’t find out.”
Xue Xiangchen frowned: “How?” He
asked: “My subordinates have never seen the little prince, and my subordinates have also asked about Zhongzhou. The people in Jinlingwei’s office all said that they had never seen Lord Xiao.”
Xue Xiangchen was silent: “Isn’t it really the little prince from Prince Ping’s mansion?”
He Wen hesitated and said: “This subordinate thinks Probably not, the subordinates have heard about the personality of the little prince, he doesn’t seem like someone who can wipe out all the Eight Kings’ henchmen in Zhongzhou, Fenxi, and Jiguang.”
Xue Xiangchen glanced at his confidant who was raised with one hand: “Things I have seen with my own eyes may not be true, let alone what I have heard. I always feel that this little prince is a bit too quiet.
” A brother who robbed the title, it is not so easy to accept that this happened to anyone, let alone that one who has been violent since childhood, everyone is waiting to see him rush back to the capital to make a scene, but he is a little stunned Nothing happened.
That alone, is very wrong.
Meanwhile, similar conversations are ongoing in several places.
