Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-One(3/3)
Xie Yuan is the name of this manor, and Xie Yuan was built by the Xie family.
The most famous thing about Yuyao County is the Xie family who is a court elder.
Xie Qian had been in the central government for more than ten years, and he had been a cabinet minister for more than ten years. He even served as the dignified chief minister of the cabinet for a few years. His power was unprecedented.
Moreover, the Xie family not only had a pavilion elder like Xie Qian, Xie Qian's younger brother Xie Di, although not as good as Xie Qian, was also an official at the level of a member of the Ministry of War.
It can be said that the Xie family is an unparalleled and famous family in Yuyao County.
As Xie Qian was dismissed from office two years earlier, Xie Qian's reputation, which returned to Yuyao County, not only did not decline due to his dismissal, but became even louder, especially among scholars, who was recognized as loyal and not afraid of the traitors in the court.
Minister.
Xie Qian built a school next to Xie Garden and started a private school called Muzhai School, directly named after himself.
It is conceivable how many scholars could be attracted if a dignified chief minister of the cabinet opened a school.
It can be said that from the beginning, many scholars from the south of the Yangtze River came to study, listened to Xie Qian's lectures, and respected Xie Qian as their teacher.
There were hundreds of disciples under Xie Qian's sect with names and surnames. As for the scholars who were watching, they were probably no less than a thousand.
Suddenly, the Xie family's reputation in Yuyao became even louder.
Of course, Xie Qian's reputation became louder and louder. As the person who harmed Xie Qian, Li Huan's reputation was almost as bad as the wind in the local area. Everyone shouted and cursed him.
Not long ago, Muzhai Academy suddenly suspended classes for two or three months. It was said that Xie Qian suddenly felt unwell and was recuperating in Xie Garden.
When the news spread, many scholars prayed for Xie Qian outside Xie Garden, praying for Xie Qian's speedy recovery.
On this day, a carriage came creaking from a distance and stopped at the back gate of Xie Garden.
The man who was driving the carriage jumped out of the carriage, lifted the curtain, and saw an old man walking out of the carriage. He looked at Xie Yuan in front of him, stroking his beard and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a few months, now think about it.
It’s more comfortable to be in this garden!”
Walking into the Xie Garden, the beautiful young maids saw the old man and stopped to salute him.
Xie Qian looked at these young and beautiful maids and couldn't help laughing. He stretched out his big hands and took one of the pretty maids into his arms. He pinched the tender and pretty face of the maid with his big hands.
He laughed loudly and said: "In this situation, this beauty, this beautiful woman, even if you give me a first assistant, I will not change it."
A pair of big hands naturally reached under the maid's skirt, and at this moment a voice came from a distance: "Brother, you came back without notifying me in advance."
When Xie Qian heard this, he looked up and saw an old man in green clothes striding towards him. Who could it be if it wasn't his younger brother who was implicated in his official career?
His big hand suddenly grabbed a handful of the tender skin, and he pushed away the maid who was screaming in pain in his arms, and walked towards Xie Di and said: "What if you inform me, but what if you don't inform me, just like I left quietly,
He came back quietly again, who knew that in the past two or three months, my brother was not in this Xie Garden."
Xie Di glanced at Xie Qian, as if he was sure that Xie Qian was okay, with a slight smile on his face, and then waved his hands to the maids around him, and in an instant, these girls left one after another.
Xie Qianxing went to sit in the pavilion next to him, glanced at Xie Di and said, "Nothing happened while I was gone."
Xie Di shook his head slightly and said: "What can be the problem? I just received the news from Beijing and was worried. Now that my brother has returned safely, I can let go of this."
Compared with the news sent back by the horse, Xie Qian rode in a carriage all the way. Although the waterway was convenient and the speed was not too slow, compared with the news sent back by a special messenger, the speed was naturally incomparable.
Not long ago, Xie Di received news from the capital. He learned that the emperor was unconscious and was rescued by Li Huan. At the same time, court officials were arrested and interrogated severely. Xie Di felt a cold sweat for Xie Qian.
.
Although Xie Di was not very sure why Xie Qian suddenly came to the capital, not long after Xie Qian entered the capital, news came from the capital that the emperor had been murdered. Xie Di was not a fool either.
It can also be guessed that the assassination of the emperor may have the shadow of his brother.
After listening to Xie Di's words, Xie Qian just glanced at Xie Di lightly and said: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't think about what you shouldn't think about. You just need to know that Brother Wei will not harm our Xie family."
yes."
Shady nodded.
Xie Qian stroked his beard and smiled and said: "The news will be spread tomorrow that I am in good health and ready to give lectures. Scholars who are interested in learning can come and listen to the lectures."
Xie Di said with a smile: "When my brother gives a lecture, it will definitely cause a sensation in the world. I don't know how many scholars will come to listen to the lecture."
Xie Qian had a smile on his lips, and his eyes were filled with pride and pride.
He moved to Jiangnan and became famous. Although he was no longer the chief minister, many of his former disciples and former officials were still in the court. Although his influence was not as great as before, few people could underestimate him.
Many scholars came to listen to the lecture because of his status. If they can be under his disciple Xie Qian, they will be greatly benefited in the future whether they are taking scientific examinations or serving as officials.
Xie Qian glanced at Xie Di and said, "Is there any latest news from Beijing?"
Xie Di pondered for a moment, thought carefully, and suddenly said: "There is no other news, but I heard that Bachelor Fei Hongfei's house was ransacked."
Xie Qian couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Fei Hong was certainly no stranger to him. He was also one of the most important ministers in the court. He was already a designated cabinet minister. It was not difficult to even become the chief minister of the cabinet.
Xie Qian and Fei Hong naturally had a good relationship, and their relationship was even much closer than most people imagined.
After a while, Xie Qian sighed softly and said, "It was me who got him involved."
Xie Qian said with emotion: "The Fei family in Qianshan is finished!"
Xie Di's face was full of sadness as if a rabbit had died and a fox had hurt its own kind, and he sighed: "Yes, the whole Fei clan of the huge Qianshan Mountain, I heard that only a few core clan members escaped, and the rest were all captured by the Jinyi Guards.
Now the Jinyiwei are confiscating Fei's property in Qianshan, and I'm afraid they won't be able to finish the looting in less than a month or two."
As he said this, Xie Di glanced at Xie Qian, who was sitting there, squinting his eyes slightly, the tea in his hand swaying slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Just as Xie Qian and Xie Di were talking about the Fei family in Qianshan County, Du Guang in Qianshan County and his Jinyiwei were watching the boxes of large boxes filled with gold and silver jewelry being carried out and loaded onto the carriage, with expressions on their faces.
It was full of dignity.
Xiao Qi, a guard in uniform beside him, whispered to Du Guang: "Sir, I really can't imagine that the cash that was not copied alone is more than two million taels. The Fei family is really too rich."
Du Guang snorted coldly and said: "What is wealth? It's not just the wealth of the people, it's millions of taels of gold and silver. It will take the Fei family several lifetimes to earn it, and that doesn't count the hundreds of thousands."
acres of fertile farmland, hundreds of shops, manors, and mines.”
The flag officer lowered his head, while Du Guang watched with cold eyes as the guardsmen carried boxes one by one onto the carriage. The guards in uniform around them pressed their hands on the hilts of their knives, monitoring the guards all the time.
soldiers.
With so much gold and silver wealth, there are too many people who are jealous of it. As the saying goes, wealth moves people's hearts. If someone is really interested, don't think it is stolen silver. There are still people who dare to make plans.
Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Du Guang did not dare to be careless in the slightest. Don't think that these guardsmen were reliable. Du Guang dared to say that if he had not sent guards to keep an eye on the whole process, these gold and silver wealth would not have been lost to these guardsmen.
It would be strange if it was divided up.
Seeing that all the gold and silver that had not been copied were loaded into the cart, Du Guang took a deep breath, cupped his hands towards the gloomy-looking Qianhu official of the guard station and said: "I wish Qianhu, let the brothers set off, this money
If it can be successfully sent to the capital, both the Commander and Your Majesty will receive commendations, and it will be possible for Zhu Qianhu to be promoted to Commander."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Ying glanced at Du Guang, then looked at the Jin Yiwei who were standing around, staring at their soldiers. He sighed in his heart, put away his little thoughts, clasped his fists at Du Guang and said, "I'll invite Du Bai then."
Hu helped me put in a good word for me in front of the Grand Governor."
Maoyan Lane Li Mansion
Li Huan was sitting there talking with Feng.
Feng looked at Li Huan and said, "Huan'er, mother hasn't asked you yet, how are you going to arrange your two uncles?"
Although she knew that Li Huan would definitely not treat her two uncles badly, Feng was still quite concerned. She looked at Li Huan and couldn't help but ask.
Li Huan smiled when he heard this and said, "Isn't it because my uncle asked my mother to kiss you?"
Feng rolled her eyes at Li Huan and said, "Your uncle is not stupid, it's just that my mother wants to know."
Even though Li Huan was joking with Feng, he also knew that Feng Yongguo and Feng Yongbang would not let Feng ask him such a thing. However, Li Huan really considered the arrangement between the two.
