There is Room For the Poor Daughter - Chapter 658

[Chapter 658, Exploration]

Provincial Government, Yuan Family.

Mrs. Yuan helped Zheng Envoy Yuan take off her official uniform, hesitated for a moment, and said, “I heard that the Yan family has a close relationship with the one from the Prince’s Mansion, so the master just arrested Yan Zhifu, will he offend that man?” Position?”

Yuan Buzheng’s face was full of indifference: “Xiao Yeyang’s status is considered valuable in the eyes of local officials, but our Yuan family has a concubine, the fifth prince, and the second princess behind us, so why should we be afraid of him? Mrs.

Yuan: “You can’t say that. After all, you are a child of the royal family, so don’t make too much trouble.”

Yuan Buzheng snorted coldly: “I caught Yan Zhigao in accordance with the rules. He lost his military rations. I’m not afraid of making trouble with the emperor.”

Envoy Yuan Bu is not one to listen to persuasion, seeing that Mrs. Yuan seemed to want to say something, she immediately got a little impatient.

“Okay, Xiao Yeyang has been away from Beijing for many years, whether it is Prince Heping or the emperor, the relationship is not very close, so don’t worry about it here.”

Then, he sneered.

“Before Prince Ping helped the Ma family, Xiao Yeyang didn’t dare to go back to Beijing to make trouble. It can be seen that he is a coward. Even a child of the royal family should not be afraid of such a person.”

“Isn’t he on good terms with the Yan family? I’ve been arresting Yan Zhigao for a whole day, but he doesn’t even have a shadow of himself, and he didn’t send anyone over to inquire, either because he is afraid of my Yuan family, or because he doesn’t have as good a relationship with the Yan family as in the legend.”

“Okay I’m exhausted from confiscating the military rations these days, I’ll go to Aunt Shui’s place to relax tonight.”

After speaking, without waiting for Madam Yuan’s reaction, she strode away.

Seeing her husband walking away, Madam Yuan frowned.

At this time, Yuan Zhilei came to the main courtyard and saw her mother sitting alone in a daze, she stepped forward and asked, “Mother, did father go to Aunt Shui’s place again?”

Mrs. Yuan asked her daughter to sit down, and didn’t talk much about the concubine’s room in the mansion. She had already looked down on her over the years. The master is a good-looking person. Aunt Shui was sent here a few months ago by Jiang Shenzheng, and she was fresh.

“Are you here for something?”

Yuan Zhilei frowned. Although her mother didn’t answer, she already knew the answer. However, as a daughter, she couldn’t talk much about her father’s room, so she opened her mouth to explain the purpose of coming: ” Mother, I heard someone say that the eldest son of the Yan family asked to see his father several times, but was rejected by his father. Is this too much?”

“Although the magistrate Yan lost the army rations, his crime is still the emperor’s fault .” It’s up to you, and the prefect of Yan has a good reputation among the people of Zhongzhou, and my father is so ruthless now, I’m afraid it will cause criticism.”

“My daughter really doesn’t understand, why did my father do this?”

Madam Yuan sighed In one breath: “Your father has that temperament. Our family held a reception banquet in February. All the officials of Zhongzhou came, but Yan Zhifu was absent. Your father felt that he didn’t take Yuan’s family seriously. Now that he has the opportunity, he can’t do it.” I ‘m venting my anger.”

“Again, the Yan family and Xiao Yeyang are on good terms. Xiao Yeyang bullied the fifth prince a lot in the palace when he was a child. Once he beat the fifth prince to lie on the bed for more than half a month. What do you think about this matter?” Father has always remembered.”

“Xiao Yeyang is Prince Ping’s son, your father is not good at dealing with him directly, but the Yan family has no scruples.”

“Also, Jiang Shenzheng approached your father a few days ago and mentioned Yan The magistrate discovered a high-yield food, what is it called potatoes, this kind of great contribution to benefit the country and the people, your father has been thinking about it.”

“You also know that since the emperor was seriously injured when he worshiped his ancestors, how many people who have entered the court now The prince is fighting fiercely, your father wants to dedicate the potatoes to the fifth prince, and wants to increase his prestige among the people.”

Yuan Zhilei frowned more and more: “Mother, Jiang Shenzheng told his father about Tudou, it is clear that he has ulterior motives , these years, although our family and the Jiang family have said that the well water does not interfere with the river water, the Jiang family has no reason to help our family, especially now that the queen is raising the son of the concubine Ma, the Jiang family does not want to see other princes Excellent, father must not be fooled by Jiang Shenzheng.”

Mrs. Yuan was also worried: “You and I can both see the problem, but your father didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. Without the restraint of your grandparents, he is more and more free to do whatever he wants.”

“At the beginning, the family decided that your father I was very worried when I let it out, but your grandparents decide everything at home, and your mother has nothing to do.”

Yuan Zhilei stood up abruptly: “I can see that it is Aunt Shui who is chewing on my father’s ear. , Father’s usual behavior is somewhat inappropriate, but it’s not to the point of losing his sense of propriety at all. Jiang Shenzheng sent Aunt Shui here with malicious intentions.”

Mrs. Yuan signaled her daughter to be calm: “Okay, don’t worry too much. I’m in a hurry, but fortunately the Yan family has no foundation, so if they are arrested, they will be arrested, and the emperor will not embarrass our family because of him.”

“I have already written to inform your grandparents about the matter, and it will not be long before you think about it. Grandfather will send his staff to assist your father.”

Yuan Zhilei nodded: “I hope that grandfather’s staff will come quickly.” The

Jiang family.

Jiang Canzheng squinted his eyes and listened to his subordinates’ reports. After his subordinates left, Mrs. Jiang walked over: “What is the master thinking?”

Jiang Canzheng: “I was thinking about Xiao Yeyang.”   Mrs.

Jiang: “Huh?”

Talking, squinting and meditating.

This time, the purpose of moving the Yan family was to vent their anger on his daughter. The eldest daughter of the Yan family dared to seduce the person his daughter liked, so she was really impatient.

The second is to test Xiao Yeyang.

His father and elder brother wrote several times asking him to test Xiao Yeyang, thinking that Xiao Yeyang might be the commander of Jin Lingwei specially appointed by the emperor, Master Xiao, but unfortunately, he didn’t find out anything in the previous few times.

At the beginning of July, the Eight Kings failed to seize the city. It is said that it was because of the Master Xiao who made a move and took out many of the Eight Kings.

After receiving this news, he planned the food seizure.

From the standpoint of the Jiang family, he did not hope that the rebellion in northern Xinjiang would subside too quickly. If the Eight Kings were eliminated, the emperor’s ruling power would become stronger and stronger.

The emperor, who has no constraints, will definitely turn his head and weaken the powerful Jiang family.

No one in the Jiang family wanted to see this.

Taking away the 100,000 grains from Ningmen Mansion will not only clean up the Yan family, but also add trouble to the emperor, and make a small profit, killing three birds with one stone.

He should be very satisfied with this result, but now that Xiao Yeyang didn’t show up, the joy in his heart was reduced by most of it.

Mrs. Jiang misunderstood what Jiang Shenzheng meant, she sneered at this and said: “I usually see that the relationship between Xiao Yeyang and the Yan family is not bad, before Wanying saw him and the eldest daughter of the Yan family walking together in a close manner, now Yan Something happened to Zhigao, but he ignored it, which shows that he didn’t really take the Yan family seriously.”

Jiang Canzheng shook his head: “We haven’t seen Xiao Yeyang for several months, and he is still in Zhongzhou Over there in the northern border, that mysterious Lord Xiao appeared again.”

Mrs. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then thought of something, and widened her eyes: “Master, you mean that Xiao Yeyang is that Lord Xiao?”

Jiang Shenzheng He let out a breath: “It’s likely to be nine out of ten.” After saying that, he strode to the study.

He was to tell his father the result of this temptation.
