After returning home.

Today's supper started again.

He and the Empress have been having dinner these days.

Of course, even two people never stopped boiling bones every night.

Xia Ren picked up a mouthful of vegetables, then dipped the rice, looking at the empress who had not moved her chopsticks in confusion, "What's wrong?"

Since the meal, the empress has been staring at him, making him panic. Could it be that the empress will find out again... It's wrong, he hasn't hidden much money during this period!

"This morning, someone reported that Eunuch Xia of Huangzhuang became addicted to luxury, employed dozens of opera troupes, consumed tens of thousands of dollars, suspected that you were corrupt and deducted the people, otherwise, where would you get so much money?"

“…”

Which official is so boring!

If he didn't do practical things well, he actually came to report him. Who doesn't know that he had calculated that Lord Xia cheated the Salt Gang tens of millions of taels, so what if he really hired dozens of opera troupes?

He is blooming!

certainly.

Most of the money was confiscated. In the empress's small vault, I didn't have much, but who knows?

As for the money for hiring the opera troupe this time... I have not actually given it yet.

I owe it!

He didn't have that much money, let alone Mr. Ji Yan. He was a prodigal son. He heard that the prince's mansion never returned for many years and had not many servants. If it weren't for the court's control, it would have collapsed long ago. As for the others... Perhaps only Manager Xu had the ability to borrow so much money from him.

Xia Ren beat him up and woke up the rice that was so scared by the empress that he had just stuffed into his nose. Then, he looked at the empress who was waiting for his explanation with a serious face, "It's the old man! They were all invited by the old man! Really! I won't lie to you! You know, the old man is a little older, and I can't stay for a long time when I come back this time. I'll leave after a while. You're not unclear, you'll have a good time to watch the show, so you have no other interest. I hope you can watch it well before leaving. So, I respect the elderly and love the young, and I can't bear to see the old man's little wish that can't be realized, so I let Wuque go out to invite a few more opera teams to make the old man happy."

I quickly picked up a few vegetables and put them in the Empress's bowl.

"Come on! Eat more vegetables. The weather is a bit cold during this period. Let's eat it quickly, so don't get cold by then."

“…”

The empress looked at Xia Ren speechlessly. Doesn’t she know her second grandfather?

King Zhenbei is only focused on martial arts, so how could he only have the hobby of watching good shows?

If there were something else in my heart besides Wu Tu, why did Master Mei wait until now?

But when Xia Ren saw the floating eyes and looked like "I'm lying, but I'm very panicked, what should I do?", shook his head, picked up the dishes in the bowl, and started eating gracefully.

She wasn't worried about what this guy wanted to do. Not to mention that Wuque and Zhenbei King were both in the imperial village, just here... Haha, let him run away!

If he could run away, she... would give him another hour of bone-burning!

But what is this guy hiding from her?

The empress narrowed her eyes slightly, quickly returned to her calm face, said nothing, and slowly ate.

When Xia Ren saw that the empress stopped asking, he was slightly stunned. He hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did you believe it?"

"Yeah! I believe it!"

“…”

This script is wrong!

Although I think this is perfect, why do I always feel something is wrong?

"You... don't say anything?"

"What do you want me to say?" The empress instead put down the bowl in her hand with a calm expression, looked at him, and said calmly, "Don't speak! What you said just now, eat quickly!"

"That...when will we stop eating?"

"Um?"

"Okay! Then you really believe it?"

"I believe it!"

"Don't say a few words?"

"Don't say it!"

"Say a few words!"

I don’t say that I feel a little unreal!

My Empress!

"Okay! I'll say a few words!" The empress nodded and said calmly, "Boil bones after meals."

“Isn’t this normal?”

"Add two hours!"

"……good!"

It took only four hours, he gritted his teeth and passed.

"Eat! Eat! We will boil bones after eating!"

In order not to disclose it!

Isn’t it just bone-burning?

Isn't it just an extra two hours?

What a big deal!

Bear with it...bear with it...then it!

...

“The moon is so beautiful tonight!”

"The moon was even more beautiful some time ago!" He said a little impatient, "Tell me, stop doing this, why are you here to come to me? You old man Li, you won't have anything to happen!"

"Don't you think we've done something too much? Lao Fan?"

"What's the matter? Sishui College... Bashui College, Danshui College, Luoshui College and the last Sishui College. The four colleges have been protecting Dashun since the moment Mr. Wen Zheng was founded. How many talents have they provided for Dashun?" The old man called Lao Fan looked at Old Man Li with a serious face, "Why did the late emperor and Your Majesty force us so much? You know, Sishui College cannot be destroyed in my hands! I cannot be this sinner!"

Old Man Fan looks a little older, even older than Old Man Li on the opposite side, especially the gray hair on his head, which is less than Old Man Li. It seems that because of what Old Man Li said, Old Man Fan seems a little excited.

"Si Shui Academy is the foundation of Dashun!"

"Okay, foundation! foundation!" Old man Li, wearing a green robe, comforted the excited Fan Zhong helplessly, "Do you know why Mr. Wen Zheng established the Sishui Academy?"

"Educate all people and provide talents to Dashun!"

"Maybe! But what was the most important reason at that time?"

“…”

"You see, you know!" Old Man Li sighed leisurely and continued to look at the bright moon in the sky. "Mr. Wen Zheng's most important purpose is to solve the control of the aristocratic families over Dashun. Where did the first batch of students from Sishui Academy come from? Most of them were mud legs, people in the city, and poor families, but now? Children of aristocratic families! Children of high-ranking officials! Sishui Academy is no longer the original Sishui Academy!"

"If I don't do this, Sishui Academy will no longer be the only Sishui Academy!"

"Is this very important? As long as Sishui Academy was established by Mr. Wen Zheng, no matter how it is done, Sishui Academy is still the most important college in Dashun. I know that not many people in the college like me, and most of my students have been pulled away by you, but...will it be really good if this continues?"

"Look, the officials nowadays are about to fall off their teeth, and they also take a guy in his forties as their teacher. They are as beautiful as their name to imitate their ancestors. This integrity is so shameless, and there are also the formation of gangs in the court and local gangs... How many corrupt officials have been produced in our Sishui Academy in recent years?" Old Man Li looked at Old Man Fan, who was silent and had a little ugly face and continued, "And Wang Zheng's case... That's a rebellion! You dare to do this!"

"It has nothing to do with me! I have never rebelled!"

"But Your Majesty doesn't think so! Look at these days... Your Majesty is forcing us to force us to rebel. Only in this way can she really demolish Sishui Academy and kill all the students! And it has nothing to do with you? Three years ago, even though she knew that Wang Zheng was going to rebel, why did she force the late emperor?"

"It's not that I want to force the late emperor, but that the late emperor has done too much. If this is not the case, how can we unite to fight against the barbarians?"

"Then you accept the legitimate son of the Zhu family as a student? That boy, you don't know how he is. He is greedy for money and lust, has no prestige, bullying men and women. Why do you want to accept it? Don't tell me that he is very talented! Is the talent of shit?"

“…”

"You always have a reason! Although I have been slutty in the past few years, like a turtle shining, but my eyes are not blind!" Old Man Li shook his head, his tone seemed to ease, and he said calmly, "That step is not that easy to solve Lord Xia. From the moment he asked for food, I saw it, this person is better than Wang Zheng, and some people say that he is comparable to Mr. Wenzheng. Maybe, but from his repeated plot against Huang Wenguan and threatening him with Huang Wenguan's unborn grandson, we can see that this person is cruel and ruthless. Since he debuted, he has never shown his face. People in the world only know Lord Xia in the Imperial Village, but not others, and know that this person is good at hiding himself. Then, from his pitting 70,000 people in the Dead Salt Gang, he knows how hard this person is."

Looking at Lao Fan, who was silent again.

"There are also methods of making salt and selling salt... This person's wisdom is indeed far better than Wang Zheng! It is far better than you and me! And he is loyal to Your Majesty. Your Majesty trusts him. You are still going to fight him? In my opinion, the arrest of the Zhu family's legitimate son was his plan. He was mocking you for taking something and declaring war with Sishui Academy! Lao Fan! We are Sishui Academy, the cornerstone of Dashun. Since Your Majesty wants to reform, let's cooperate. You did the last emperor and later Jinshan Academy! "

After finishing his words, he patted Lao Fan who said nothing.

"It's not too late at this time. As long as you show your Majesty the loyalty of Sishui Academy, cooperate with Your Majesty to clean up the court and local officials and establish the academy, I believe that if Your Majesty forgives Sishui Academy, he will not take action again. As for this, please do it!"

After saying that.

With his hands in his arms, he turned his head and left with Yuehua, leaving Fan Zhong alone, and was still pondering there.

However.

No moment passed.

Fan Zhong raised his head and looked at the moon in the sky with his eyes extremely calm, "But in that case, Sishui Academy will no longer be the original Sishui Academy! Old Li! Forgive me? Don't joke, as long as Sishui Academy does not rebel, what can he do?"

...

"So, you sold me last night?"

"How can we say it is a sale? That's just a forced one. I believe the old man... you will forgive me! After all, we are all for the sake of great luck! People should look forward, what is the point? That's all!"

"Haha! What do you think?"

"meeting!"

"Forgive you? I'm so famous for my life! Look at my palm! OK! I'm forgiving you! I'll forgive you if you die!"

"Wait! Wait! I die! I die! Wait for the night! I was beaten while standing!"
