Chapter 237 The Harmonious Two
His Royal Highness the Regent always walks in an S-shaped manner when he goes out.
The hole on the front of the clothes where ten fingers were inserted was completely wrinkled.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He didn't even go back to the Regent's Palace, but had people carry him directly to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
Nowadays, the little emperor would only go to court to acknowledge his ministers on the first and fifteenth day of each lunar month.
Normally they work in the side hall here.
Seeing how angry that girl is, I guess there will be no way to get by unless this law is changed.
But it is definitely not okay to amend a single law for no apparent reason.
It would be better to discuss with Xiao Yuan's guys and make a few more changes so that we can have a legitimate reason.
How abominable!
The more Jin Zekang thought about it, the more suffocated he became.
You said that your own man can make the decision, why are you mad at me? You two sleep in the same bed every day, why are you looking for him?
This girl is definitely the most powerful general in Dajin now.
Thanks to my good health in the past two years, if she had been sick in the past two years, she would have had to lie down for half a year.
Xiao Yuan was reviewing memorials at that moment. When he saw Jin Zekang coming in with a dark face and disheveled clothes, he chuckled.
He received the news right after the Regent went to his house. Looking at him like this, there is no need to ask, this guy must be talking nonsense again.
Ever since he knew about Jiang Huai's sudden change, he had expected something like this to happen.
As for that rascal Jin Zekang, there is no way he would miss the opportunity to ridicule his wife.
His wife never disappoints anyone, but no one expected that she would take action again this time.
Jin Zekang snorted coldly when he saw his cheap brother-in-law taking pleasure in misfortune.
"What's so funny? If you smile so beautifully, why don't you go and sell some goods?
Is it because you haven't taken good care of my sister recently? Why does she seem so angry? "
Xiao Yuan threw down his pen and calmly drank a sip of tea.
"Who told you to leave your work behind and go and get into trouble?
This time, that sentence hit the mark again
I'm tired of reviewing the memorials right now, so I'm just saying it out loud so that I can bask in the misfortune of others."
Jin Zekang tugged at his collar in frustration.
"Your ex-father-in-law attempted to kill your ex-mother-in-law.
The girl said that it was unfair that the sentence for murdering a wife and murdering a husband was not the same, and she was clamoring for a change.
Ask Dongchang to collect a dozen or twenty laws related to the disaster-stricken areas, and I will send them to the three courts for review and make changes as soon as possible."
Xiao Yuan glared at Jin Zekang speechlessly.
"Normally speaking, shouldn't you come here today to laugh at Jiang Huai?
Why are you talking about Li Mingyue's family again?
Amending the law is no small matter. Do you think the job is too easy and you have to find something for everyone to do?
Next time you are free, tell me and I will get you busy soon. "
"How can you blame me for this? I was just talking to myself and I didn't know that girl would react so strongly."
Jin Zekang lowered his voice suspiciously, "Could it be that my sister has discovered something about you?
Let me tell you, if you really have any ideas, just part ways with my sister in peace and don't go to the point of killing your wife.
I heard that the Quanrong tribe suffered a disaster this year and they are coming to us to take advantage of us. I am counting on my sister to help me to enhance the prestige of our country."
Xiao Yuan's hands were itching to see Jin Zekang's wretched look. If their identities weren't so sensitive, he would have wanted to beat him up too.
There are more than 20 generals and several top ten masters in the imperial court. When will it be his wife's turn to support the military force of Dajin?
Is it possible that when the Quanrong warriors came, his wife could not be allowed to go to the palace? Then, do the civil and military officials in the Manchu dynasty have any shame?
Seeing that Xiao Yuan ignored him, Jinze Kangdun shouted,
"You wouldn't really..."
"Shut up! If you have time, hurry up and review those memorials."
Xiao Yuan pointed to a piece of paper on another table that could block people.
"There's only so much work to do, if you don't do it, I'll have to do it.
I don't have time to accompany my wife, and my wife gets bad-tempered when no one is with her.
Brother-in-law, if we can't finish this work today, then neither of us will go back.
How about letting my sister-in-law stay in my house for two days?"
Jin Zekang was immediately frightened and picked up the pen obediently.
Every time Azhuo chatted with Jiang Xinyu, he would feel a pain in his butt the next day. It would be better for the two aunts and sisters-in-law not to see each other again in their lives.
Seeing that Jin Zekang was working diligently, Xiao Yuan also picked up his pen. However, just after he had approved an incense stick of time, someone came in carrying a large basket of petitions.
The two of them looked at each other and felt tired.
Especially Governor Xiao.
Before he was in power, he scolded the emperor for being an unhuman being every day. Now that he is doing the emperor's job, he scolds his subordinates for being idiots.
He reports every little thing to the emperor. To borrow what his wife said about him:
It's so unfair that those two wasteful people in the court spent their money on you!
Xiao Yuan even missed the time when he was the supervisor of the East Factory.
At that time, he didn't have to consider the future balance of the country and the court. It was enough to consider his own interests.
It doesn’t matter whether they are loyal or treacherous ministers. What matters is whether there is a conflict of interest with you.
Within the scope allowed by the old emperor and that he could control, he always followed the principle of "those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish".
As for the impact of this man's death on the country, it has nothing to do with him. He is just an employee.
It’s no longer possible now. Some of them he looked at with black eyes cannot be killed easily because they are useful.
I feel like the more power I have, the more frustrated I feel than before.
The two of them reviewed the memorials face to face, and Xiao Yuan did not forget to remind Jin Zekang.
It was said that Yu'er didn't like Jiang Huai and didn't want to save face for him, so she asked Jin Zekang to tell the officials on his side not to go to pay their respects.
Jin Zekang bit the tip of his pen and hummed perfunctorily.
"Don't worry, my people are all happy to know that your father-in-law is dead.
When I speak, they won't even give me the courtesy.
Every day someone gives me ideas to kill you, and some of them make me tempted."
Xiao Yuan sneered, "Same here."
After that, they both fell silent, leaving only the sound of flipping papers.
There are floods in the east and drought in the west, bandits in the south and thieves in the north.
There are so many things happening in the country every day, and everyone is just stirring up trouble because they have eaten their fill.
They are all ignorant people who don't know how expensive fuel and rice are. If all the officials over there are killed, who will do this job?
On the other side, Ye Xiao and his friends went to take another look at Jiang's house after they had rest.
The Jiang Huai case was closed unexpectedly, and Shou Ma and Tong Fang did not interfere and handed the matter over to Liu to handle.
Jiang Wanqiu didn't show it on his face, but he was relieved in his heart. He passed the test. This was nothing special about the Dongchang.
After sending away the people from the East Factory, she did not sit idle either. She directly called the human traffickers to sell Jiang Huai's concubines, including the two who had made mistakes.
Of course, it was Liu's name that was hit.
Otherwise, she, a girl who betrays her father, would have a bad reputation.
Liu was still a little sad about Jiang Huai's death, but she had been hurt so badly in the past few days that her sadness was limited.
Now that her Song'er hasn't come back yet, she relies on Jiang Wanqiu for everything, so naturally she has to do whatever her daughter says.
Liu was especially happy when she saw the silver the seller got, and her original intention of making the skinny horse pay for its life faded.
After all, she was trained by an old brand in Yangzhou, so the price is higher than that of ordinary concubines.
It just so happens that a large sum of money will be needed to handle the funeral, so it would be nice to use a few of them to recover some money.
Jiang Wanqiu was indeed cruel enough. Before selling the person out, she even had the maid search him.
No hairpins or earrings were allowed to be taken away, and during the search they unexpectedly found several hundred taels of silver worth of valuables.
When Liu saw all this, she gritted her teeth in hatred and cursed Jiang Huai for being a good-for-nothing, saying that he was spending money on those women even though his family was barely making ends meet.
It’s a good thing he died, otherwise he would have ruined this family.
Mrs. Zhao, Liu's confidant who had received the money from He Zhang, also cursed a few words while Jiang Wanqiu was away.
It actually persuaded Mrs. Liu to not want to hold a grand funeral.
In other words, he still took into consideration that Jiang Song would need to save face when interacting with others in the future. Otherwise, Liu would have wanted to just push Jiang Huai into any position.
Reason is reason, emotion is emotion, a man who doesn't take his wife and children seriously still wants others to miss him
On what basis?
