Three hundred and ninetieth chapters snake out of the hole
Half a month after seeing off Yuan Weiting away, Yu Qing also came back from the capital. The news he brought was just as Sai Jinhua and Yuan Weiting said before. The chaos in the capital was far beyond everyone's imagination, and even when the two palaces were in great success, there was no such chaos. Cheng Zhen was released to serve as the governor of the three northeastern provinces, but in fact he was a pioneer in the way of finding other relatives. As long as he could be the governor, other relatives could naturally do it.
The predecessors lead the way and followers. After Chengzhen takes all the infamy, other relatives and nobles can replace Chengzhen and replace it.
Chengzhen himself was just a playboy, and had no choice but to be an official and governor. Even if he was in charge of a government, he was incompetent, let alone the governor of the three provinces. Before he took office, he accepted a female actor donated by Duan Xiangyan. For the sake of this woman, Duan was recommended as the governor of Heilongjiang.
This matter was done very improperly. Recommending a Taoist who had not served as a vassal magistrate as a governor would be like giving the handle to others and letting others beat him up. As soon as he arrived in Fengtian, a censor in the capital had already impeached him.
Although King Qing listened to Zhao Guanhou's advice, he kept his strength and handed over authority. However, this incident was very big and not easy to suppress. Now he was quite overwhelmed. If he wanted to protect his son, it would be difficult for his son-in-law to protect him. If he kept his son-in-law, his son's situation would be unfavorable. Compared with the two, he naturally be biased over the son-in-law. On the side of Zhao Guanhou, he would not be able to exert much power.
Compared to Fuzi, the help he received was even greater.
Fuko likes Taixi bicycles very much. After she became the emperor's biological mother, she took her way and was in line with the old lady in the Beifu. She was crowded with people and was filial. She received a lot of gifts and more silver, but this was the first time she received a fashionable thing like bicycles.
After accepting the gift, she also expressed her opinion that she must maintain the situation for Zhao Guanhou and prevent others from touching his seal. At the same time, she also revealed a situation: In fact, Chengfeng is not the one who wants to touch Zhao Guanhou. In other words, Chun Wang doesn’t have the energy to look at Shandong now.
The situation in the capital was very chaotic. Empress Dowager Longyu wanted to learn from Cixi and discipline the country, and Xiao Gong wanted to seize power from King Chun. There were also disagreements within the Northern Palace. King Chun attracted a lot of wind and was attacked from all sides. The temporary attention was still insufficient to focus on the capital, so there was no spare effort to look after Shandong. The real problem was actually Yushan.
Before leaving Beijing, he gave Cheng Tao a lot of money and was eager to be the governor to make a profit. If Zhao Guanhou could not be taken away, the debt he owed would not be paid back. There are some favors that he had to be the governor before he could be paid back, so he often wrote letters to Cheng Tao in Beijing, hoping to get it easy to comfort him as soon as possible.
Cheng Tao accepted the filial piety from his subordinates, and was not willing to do anything, so he urged Chengfeng to change his generals every few days. He was the young and most favored at home. He dared to slap the table in front of his fifth brother. He had a bad relationship with Fuzi, and his uncle and sister-in-law were in disagreement, and the housework was very fierce.
In the final analysis, the problem lies in Yushan. Yuqing said: "I have discussed with Ama. In fact, this matter is better to go against the contrary. Let's talk to Yushan, and be an official for thousands of miles, for food and clothing. We give him a sum of money and tell him not to go against you. Having him here to watch the seal of the vassal seal for you is actually a good thing. The vassal tower cannot always let the staff protect the office, and sooner or later the officials will be appointed by the vassal tower. It is impossible to drive away Zhang San and Li Si. If the vassal state becomes his own person, then the matter will be easy. With his relationship with Lao Qi, there will be no changes in our Shandong. If it fails, let him be the governor elsewhere, which is better than taking your position."
She felt a little embarrassed because her father was unable to help. She had always had a special status at home, which was undeniable, and it had a lot to do with her identity, status and authority. However, King Qing was unable to help this time, which made her feel a little embarrassed in front of her husband. Fortunately, she found out about something in Beijing, which was finally helpful to her husband.
"Yushan's wife died a few years ago and has never been reunited. She is a widower. I am also a fisherman, but I don't like Qingyin's small class, so I only like the women of a good family. If I find a woman of a good age from the Women's School to complete the marriage, and give him a dowry, I think Yushan will not pursue her relentlessly, and this disaster will be left unresolved. What do you think?"
Zhao Guanhou held Yu Qing's hand tightly in his hand, asked about family matters in Beijing, but did not answer her question. Instead, Yu Qing was anxious. "I'll tell you the serious business, why did you tell me this?"
"In my heart, this is the main business. The body of the old Taishan Taishui and the affairs in Beijing are much more important than that in Yushan. I asked you to come to Beijing, although I was giving gifts to Fuzi, and I was also thinking that I was a little sorry for not going home during the Chinese New Year. I happened to go home and see my parents and kowtowed a few times for me. What happened? It was good to do it, but it didn't matter if I couldn't do it. My Yuqing is so smart, and the way I think must be excellent, I have nothing to say."
Yu Qing's face turned red, she took off her shoes, and raised her legs cross-legged with the kang. "You open your mouth sooner or later, and you will also want to count the money for you. Ama and her mother are in good health, but they are not worried about the elder brother. This time she returned to Beijing, she also met a few friends from the past. Comparison, although they were big at home, some even set rules for men, not to ask for the young, or even ask for the young, or go to the room to sleep. But in comparison, they are not as good as you to me. It's worth following you in this life. Come, rub my legs... Ama is still waiting to hug my grandson..."
Although he received a reply from the Ten Princess, Zhao Guanhou did not rush to find Yushan. In his opinion, this matter is not yet time to do it himself. In the current situation, it would be beneficial to let Yushan jump by himself.
In the officialdom in Shandong, there are many people who are not convinced by themselves due to their background and age. However, Empress Dowager Cixi's methods are too strong, and even if everyone complains, they dare not speak out. On the surface, they are very respectful to him, but no one knows what they think.
Since Yushan came out to oppose him this time, we can see who can advance and retreat with him, and let out anger on one nostril, and it will be easy to catch all the people in the future.
The next day, it was Cuiyu's day. When the two were about to go to bed, Cuiyu suddenly said to Zhao Guanhou: "Guanhou, there is one thing that I don't know if it's said or not. The matter is not accurate, it's just a little bit and a half claw. It seems that it's not good to say it..."
"Cuiyu, why are you still hesitating when you talk to me? Tell me. Has something happened at home? Could it be that a woman who has raised a young man outside and you saw it?"
Cuiyu spat, "What nonsense? You can't talk nonsense. How can we meet people when you say it? It's not their business, it's the second sister-in-law."
Since Zou Xiurong signed the Heli Book, he had broken up his relationship with Meng Siyuan. Zhao Guanhou did not stamp the two Heli Book, nor was he allowed to stamp it by the officials below. This matter was not legally approved, but for the parties involved, it was no different from Heli. Meng Siyuan sent dozens of cages, which contained Zou Xiurong's dowry that day and some real estate deeds, which were obviously divided into the property of the husband and wife.
It is said that there is also a piece of Zou Xiurong's clothes when they were in school. They wore them on their first date. They sent them all to prove that they had no remarried daughter or a man who violated the law. Zou Jingze praised himself as a shame and humiliation for his daughter and divorce. Zou Xiurong was not allowed to return to her parents' home. She currently lives in the governor's yamen.
Fortunately, she is a relatively Westernized person and does not seek death because of separation. At least during the day, she acted as usual, as she did, and was still responsible for Shandong's financial accounting and the general review of the military supplies and grain station. When she heard something went wrong with her, Zhao Guanhou also increased his attention.
"What's the matter? My second sister-in-law is here, and we have a responsibility. In the future, I will make it possible for them to reunite with each other. If there is any mistake, I will be sorry to my second brother."
"I dare not say this, but I just heard from the people below that when the second sister-in-law went to the government office to pay the account book a few days ago, Yushan said something to her. After the breakup, the second sister-in-law's behavior was a bit strange, she was a little dazed, and she was unsteady for two or three days, and she didn't know why."
"It's Yushan again? Is this guy dancing happily? I really don't know how to write the word "death". It's hard for me to ask you women. What's going on with your second sister-in-law? If Yushan is unreasonable to her, I'll take his life!"
Cuiyu shook her head, "The eldest lady went to ask, but she didn't ask anything. You know, the eldest lady is not like in the past, she is very capable now, and she can't even ask, and it's probably useless if others go there. Whoever asks, the second sister-in-law is just the same, nothing. I have seen many women in the yard, and they all have similar expressions when they encounter trouble, so I have to say something to you, Guan Hou. Be careful and don't let anything happen to your second sister-in-law. But this is related to a vassal master. If something is wrong, the second sister-in-law is sad for other things, and the consequences are also very serious. I don't know if it should be said or not."
"Good Cuiyu, you sent this news very well. No matter what, my second sister-in-law's behavior is abnormal, and it must be related to Yushan. I must find Yushan and have a good talk."
Instead of waiting for Zhao Guanhou to find Yushan, Yushan went down to ask for a post to meet Zhao Guanhou. When this person first arrived in Shandong, he was not sharp, as if humans and animals were harmless. At this time, the capital city changed its situation, and he took the opportunity to cause trouble, but showed his excellent ability to do things, which made people dare not underestimate him anymore. Although he was seeking the governor of Shandong for profit, he also had great talents.
Meeting each other was in the Deyi Building where Cuiyu was the boss. After sitting down, Yushan toasted first, greeted Zhao Guanhou, and praised the chef's skills. After talking about gossip, he turned to the topic.
"The Xiaguan looked through the account books in the past few days and found that several sums were not worth the same. The amount was very large and the matter was not detailed. The subordinate officials themselves dared not deal with this matter. They specially asked the adults to come and ask in person for advice. These funds have occurred in the past two years, including three sums about Siheng's agency, two sums on the river construction work, and the rest were all from the Shandong textile factory. Also, the accounts were messy and could not be clarified, which made it difficult for the Xiaguan to explain. You know, the situation of the Xiaguan is also very difficult. I will not hide it from you. When the Xiaguan left the capital, Qiye made an explanation. This time the Xiaguan went to Shandong to investigate. If there is any missed person, Qiye will not spare me."
Zhao Guanhou nodded and smiled, "Yu Fantai, you are right. I can understand your difficulties and I also know your thoughts. There are some accounts in Shandong that are not very clear because of the tight time and many things. In order to accomplish things, we have to use some extraordinary means and cannot follow the rules. I think Yu Fantai can understand it. Of course, since you are in charge of the order of the Seventh Master, I cannot stop you. At worst, I will go to the court to explain it clearly."
"Say it clearly? How can you tell it clearly?" Yushan looked earnest, as if his senior was pointing out a few words.
"Now, the court doesn't care about right or wrong at all, they only care about who you are. You are young and you have punched and kicked in Shandong to make such a good situation. The hard work and difficulties in this are understandable. But it is useless for the officials to understand. No one in the court will understand. Those big figures, their eyes are not about these. They only look at where your people are standing, whether we are on their side or on others. I don't hide it from the Lord. Your relationship with Yuan Gongbao is very disobedient to the Qi Master. The Qi Master and the late emperor have deep affection and keep saying that they want to avenge the late emperor."
"Avenge? Then it is hard to say. Where does this revenge come from? Where does this revenge come from? If Master Qi said reform, I would just act according to the order. The will consist of the emperor's imperial edict and the oral edict of Lord Lao Buddha. I don't know how to avenge the law."
"Mr. Zhao, it's not the time to make a fuss. Once the emperor and his ministers, you have heard of this? This court is the same as our officials. A new official takes three fires. Whoever goes to a new place to become an official must bring a few people. In addition to human favors and face, the biggest reason here is reliability. The sedan chair and the head of the yamen runners are quick. Who doesn't want to be someone you need to use, and who is willing to use the one left at work? The master is not the Seventh Master, you understand this. The governor and governor are in charge.
There are not many people like you who hold elite soldiers, and those who are not on the same mind as Qi Ye and the others, so there are even fewer ones. Of course, they can’t stay. No matter how good you do, it’s useless. If you make a fuss with these money, it’s not as simple as just picking up the top. But the matter is done by humans. As long as the adults express their sincerity to Qi Ye and the others and let them know that you are your own person, this matter is not a matter. From the lower official, I will not say a word, and even this account will help you to make peace."
He said from time to time that Qi Ye could control the candidates for Shandong Governor, but he could control Cheng Tao's decision. Zhao Guanhou listened carefully and nodded, "Yu Fanshi's kindness, Zhao Mouming felt that he would never forget it for the rest of his life. You must be more worried about Qi Ye, so you can give a few good words. I know that Qi Ye's mansion is expensive and willing to repay tens of thousands of taels of silver to reward Qi Ye. Yu Fanshi has another thank you here."
Yushan twisted his beard and smiled, "Mr. Zhao, you are indeed a smart person, you can see through it at all. Everyone is an official in the province, so there is no hurry. How long will it take? At present, there is really something to ask Lord Zhao to take action. Xiaguan's original wife has passed away for several years and has not been reorganized. Not long ago, Xiaguan met a woman in Shandong, which is very suitable for her. This woman has a connection with him. If Lord Zhao is willing to come forward to tell me, it will definitely be successful. If this marriage can be successful, we are also relatives. Your business is mine. I will tell you for yours with Qiye."
"Yu Fansi, with your talents, your future prospects are limitless. Getting married is a big deal. I wonder which woman is so lucky to be your wife?"
"The blessing is not discussed. The matter between men and women is important. If fate is here, there will be a daughter-in-law who is a beggar with a flower boy. For me, I am actually still competing for this marriage. But I am really sincere. After getting married, I will definitely be wholehearted and will not let her suffer any grievances. This woman has also suffered some changes recently. It is when she needs men's care. I think if she marrys me, it will be a good thing for her. As for her name, she lives in the house, Miss Zou's family." (To be continued.)
