Chapter 444: The Demon Concubine Who Brings Trouble to the Nation vs. the Bandit Emperor of the Founding of the Country 55
Speaking of business, Fang Huijia also restrained her expression and said seriously: "This matter is not difficult. Yan Hongkang hooked up with Yue Guogong and became the prefect of Jeju City. However, Jeju City is not ruled by Yan Hongkang alone. After Yan Hongkang died, no one really wanted to find the murderer. They all thought about how to get a piece of the pie."
"Jiezhou City used to be the territory of the Jiang family. Although the Jiang family has declined a bit, most of Jezhou is still controlled by the Jiang family. Outside of Jezhou City, Yan Hongkang's words may not work."
"The Jiang family and the Yan family have always been at odds. It's a long story to tell how they are at odds. Anyway, it doesn't matter. The nearby Ji'an City is governed by the Jiang family, and they happen to be familiar with my grandfather. Although I am the only orphan left in the Fang family, the Jiang family will still give me some face."
"As long as Yan Hongkang is convicted, and the emperor is wise and powerful enough to send someone to kill Yan Hongkang, and the Jiang family becomes the governor of Jeju again, wouldn't everyone be happy? This will benefit the Jiang family, and they will be happy to give it a push. They may suspect that you killed Yan Hongkang, but they don't care about the truth at all."
Ji Liao took Madam's hand and walked towards the carriage, saying with a smile: "Madam is wise, we still need Madam to write a letter and send it to Ji'an City, so that they won't be able to eat shit before it's hot."
The carriage stopped halfway, and the exile troops continued to move forward. Guo Yi didn't care about them. After all, they had a car and would definitely catch up.
Ji Liao found a brush from the carriage and handed it to his wife, then diligently ground ink for her.
Fang Huijia picked up her pen and started writing on the board in front of the carriage. Her beautiful hairpin-shaped small characters appeared on the paper, which was very pleasing to the eye.
"Humph! You know I'm smart now? What were you doing before? I told you long ago that the emperor is selfish and cowardly, and there is no one with backbone in Jeju City. You will not have a good ending."
"I have advised you so many times to leave Luojing City, that mess. It would be best if you don't even go to the Northern Territory. The world is so big, there is no place you can't go, but you just wouldn't listen. Now your whole family is exiled together, it's really great!"
Ji Liao was scolded so much that he dared not raise his head. He muttered quietly: "It is said that the cunning rabbit dies and the running dog is cooked. The rabbit has not even been caught yet, and the emperor is so impatient to take action. Oh, was I careless, or is what the madam said right? I will listen to the madam from now on."
"Don't be angry, okay? Anger is bad for your health. Touch the fur and you won't get angry."
Ji Liao touched Fang Huijia's head. Fang Huijia glared at him and said unhappily, "You still think I'm a three-year-old child. After so many years, there are no other tricks."
After the ink dried, Fang Huijia folded the letter paper and stuffed it into Ji Liao's hand, "Stop making trouble, send someone to deliver it quickly."
Ji Liao was the only commander with no one else. Ji Yunhuan nudged Lin Yuan with his elbow and said, "Do you understand?"
Lin Yuan was confused by what he heard, but he understood the matter of delivering the letter, so he immediately arranged for someone to deliver it.
Ji Liao helped Fang Huijia onto the carriage, and Ji Da drove to catch up with the large group in front.
Now they have no shortage of carriages, Ruyi, Xiaolanhua and Lansong can all take a rest in the carriages, but Xiaolanhua can't sit still, and still likes to take Xiaofan for a run around the mountains and fields.
Lin Yuan has many subordinates, and some of them can keep an eye on those two little guys, so Ji Yunhuan doesn't have to worry.
The two did not take a carriage, but walked side by side on the country road. The gentle breeze brought the elegant fragrance of flowers.
Lin Yuan kicked the pebbles under his feet, feeling a little discouraged.
Ji Yunhuan held Lin Yuan's hand and said softly, "My mother and father were childhood sweethearts. We grew up together in Jindu. Do you know Jindu? It was the former capital of Jin State."
Lin Yuan nodded, "I know. The emperor was beaten to a pulp by the Rongdi, so he moved the capital to Luojing. Anyway, there is the Luo River in between, so the Rongdi can't attack, and those dignitaries can continue to live a good life."
Ji Yunhuan continued, "It was the previous emperor who moved the capital, not the current emperor. Not everyone moved south back then. My father stayed, and the Fang family also stayed."
"At that time, the area north of Luoshui was ravaged by wars. The Fang family was very prestigious among the aristocratic families, and persuaded many of them to donate generously. My father organized the Northern Army with great difficulty. The area north of Luoshui was not completely occupied, but six states of land were lost, and it is still suffering from the war."
"The Fang family is a family of poets and scholars, not a family of military commanders. During the war, almost all of the Fang family members died or were injured. My father saved my mother, and they got married. After I was born, the Ji family moved to Luojing."
"It is said that the emperor is benevolent and treats General Ji's family well to prevent us from being affected by the war. In fact, to put it bluntly, they are hostages. I didn't understand this before. I just thought that the emperor was very kind to the general's family. Later..."
After she died once, she understood everything.
Ji Yunhuan paused for a moment, collected his thoughts, and said softly: "The forces in various parts of Jin are complicated, and there are many Rongdi tribes stationed in the north. The situation is even more serious. It is normal for you not to understand it for the time being. You will understand it slowly in the future."
"A Yuan, there are no eternal enemies or eternal friends in this world. There are only eternal interests. The Jiang family can help us today, but they can fight against us tomorrow."
Lin Yuan tried hard to understand these words. After a long time, he suddenly said, "Wait a minute, is the emperor a fool? He didn't send anyone to kill Yan Hongkang at all. Isn't this a revelation?"
Ji Yun laughed, "A Yuan has made progress and is thinking deeply. The emperor will definitely be suspicious and panic. A 'personal guard' suddenly appeared out of nowhere and spread widely. The whole Jeju City knows about it. The emperor must be so scared that he can't sleep at night."
"The emperor will doubt my father and the Jiang family. After all, the Jiang family is the beneficiary. He may even doubt Duke Yue who recommended Yan Hongkang to the position. Let him doubt it. The emperor never trusted the Ji family anyway. The more muddy the water, the better it is for us."
"Yan Hongkang is dead and his reputation is ruined. Only the emperor can punish evildoers. The emperor will not be so stupid as to give this credit to others. Otherwise, how can we explain the 'royal guards'? Where is the majesty of the royal family? The emperor will acknowledge this matter first and then slowly investigate it later."
Lin Yuan felt like his head was about to explode. He sighed quietly, "You guys are really cunning. What's wrong with your brains? Aren't they tired of scheming like this all day long? I feel like being an emperor is pretty useless. It's better to be a bandit."
Ji Yunhuan patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "When the king is weak and the country is weak, you can only scheme against your own people like this. When A Yuan becomes the emperor, the situation will be completely different. A Yuan will definitely be a good emperor."
Ruyi came over with the carriage and pulled the reins, very excited, "Look, young lady, I'm very strong now. I can hold the horse. Are you tired, young lady? Get in the carriage quickly, let's go after the master and the mistress."
The carriage stopped in front of Ji Yunhuan. Ruyi glared at Lin Yuan. This scoundrel would pester the young lady whenever he got the chance. She must protect the young lady.
Seeing Ruyi's happy expression, Ji Yunhuan didn't want to spoil Ruyi's good mood, so he got on the carriage.
Ruyi was about to close the curtain when Ji Yunhuan held her hand and said, "Wait, let A Yuan come up as well. Where is the box of books? Find them all. I will teach A Yuan how to read and write every day from now on."
