The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion - Chapter 943
[Chapter 932 Oversight]
Coming out of the living room, Sun Shaozong walked towards Jia Yingchun in the backyard, while pondering the conversation with Yu Qian and Li Xian in the reception room just now.
Although the two went to the door together, their goals were different.
Li Xian is more homesick because of his father Li Sheng’s illness. In recent days, he has been talking about why he would rather be a homeless ghost than a divorcee.
Although his condition is really not suitable for long-distance travel, Li Xian can only cope with it when he is forced to do so – after all, Li Sheng’s illness is beyond recovery, and even if he continues to stay in the capital, he will only survive Just a few days.
So Li Xian came here today mainly to bid farewell to Sun Shaozong.
After Sun Shaozong learned the inside story, he taught him earnestly and ordered him to return to his hometown, but he must not be complacent and waste his studies.
Then he ordered Zhao Zhongji to prepare the medicinal materials and 3,000 taels of silver for Li Xian to spend on the road and during his filial piety.
Li Xian did not say thank you, but respectfully kowtowed three times before leaving.
But after Li Xian left, Yu Qian realized what he was here for – but it turned out that he was in a hurry to come to the door this time, and he came to warn Sun Shaozong that he must not have anything to do with Wang Ziteng recently.
It is also a blessing and a curse.
The Southeastern Fleet built by Prince Tengqing’s southeastern half of the wall was originally criticized by the southerners, and there were officials attacking it every now and then.
It was not until recently that the Southeast Fleet chased the Beihai, Kyushu, and Megatron Korea, and all kinds of criticisms died down.
But who would have thought that the good times would not last long.
At the beginning of the month, the Japanese shogunate general Ashikaga Yoshichi sent an envoy to negotiate with the Southeast Fleet’s unauthorized landing in Kyushu to suppress bandits.
This is not a big deal at first, just the various bad deeds of the Southeast Asian pirates, even if the Southeast Fleet burns, kills and loots in Kyushu, it is just a tit-for-tat.
However, along with the Japanese envoy, there was also the concubine of the Ryukyu ruler Shang Shi, who claimed that at the time, the Shang family volunteered to be the guide of the king and led the Southeast Fleet to the north to flatten the Japanese. plundered and slaughtered the Shang Manchus.
In fact, this did not involve Wang Zi Teng. After all, the Southeast Fleet was alone overseas at that time, and Wang Zi Teng himself was beyond reach.
But it was also a coincidence. At this moment, Wang Ziteng suddenly reported that it was the Ryukyu lord Shang Shi who volunteered to be the king’s forerunner. .
As a result, the crux of the problem has changed.
Whether the Shang family was slaughtered by the Japanese pirates or by the official army has become irrelevant. The important thing is whether Wang Zi Teng, an important official, deliberately deceived the court or was deceived by his subordinates.
Needless to say, the former is certainly a great sin.
The latter represented a major dereliction of duty, and also meant that there was a serious problem in Wang Ziteng’s control over the Southeast Fleet.
According to Wang Ziteng’s consistent performance, the former is undoubtedly more likely.
Therefore, in the past few days, there have been some radical words among the officials. Even Lu Yanbin, the Minister of War, thought that the prince should be called back to Beijing to judge for himself.
Because of this, Wang Ren hurriedly went all over the camp. Anyone who had something to do with the Wang family and who could speak in the courtroom would most likely be sent to the door by him.
However, according to Yu Qian’s analysis, the court should not pursue this matter with great fanfare for the time being. After all, the Southeast Fleet still has nearly half of its troops stationed in North Korea.
Once this matter is thoroughly investigated, the military will not be stable enough. If someone makes peace with the Jurchen under the fear of crime, the advantage that the court has finally seized will be lost.
But this does not mean that Wang Ziteng can sit back and relax.
“Yesterday, there was news from the palace that the concubine De Concubine gave birth to a prince successfully. Others said that the Wang family was lucky, but the little nephew felt the opposite.”
Yu Qian didn’t say it thoroughly, but Sun Shaozong already knew it.
Xu Furen felt that abolishing the elders and establishing the younger would lead to suspicion of the master and the younger ministers, so he would rather support the prince who had broken his roots.
In the same way, in the heart of Emperor Guangde, is he not at all worried about his youngest son being held by a powerful minister?
As for the one who is most likely to become a powerful minister right now, he has to hold the southeast half of the wall, and he has been in the limelight recently, and it is Prince Teng, the uncle of the German concubine.
Now there is another criminal record of bullying the king…
If Sun Shaozong was the emperor, it would be difficult to tolerate him!
Gossip rest.
However, he said that Sun Shaozong arrived at Jia Yingchun, and he clearly greeted him respectfully, but secretly set a date and planned to take care of their masters and servants in three days.
Jia Yingchun only started talking about business after the ‘courtesy’ was over.
But it turned out that she was in a hurry to find Sun Shaozong because when she was in the Rongguo Mansion yesterday, Jia She specially called her over and said that she would do a big ritual to pray for the second prince and prolong his life. So I hope to borrow five or six thousand taels from the Sun family.
If it was five or six hundred taels of silver, Jia Yingchun would go down for the sake of peace and quiet.
But this mouth is five or six thousand taels, how can she make up her mind?
At the moment, I had to excuse myself.
I don’t want this morning, Mrs. Xing sent another person to ask for it like a debt.
“I didn’t want to disturb Erlang, but there are words over there, always holding the second prince to oppress people, it is really difficult to shirk, so I had to ask Erlang to come over and help him come up with an idea.”
As he said that, he sighed again.
Jia She obviously wanted to take advantage of the momentum of the second prince to blackmail his son-in-law and daughter for a sum of money – it was indeed troublesome for him to be an undisciplined father.
The most pitiful thing is that this guy is looking for a reason…
Not to mention that there are many Taoist priests in the palace, and Jia Zheng, a serious grandfather, is praying for the second prince’s longevity, do you still need him to come forward?
“Sister-in-law, don’t worry, let’s perfunctory the old lady for half a day.” Sun Shaozong said immediately: “I will send someone to pass the word to Uncle Zheng, and it is most appropriate for him to handle this matter.”
Jia Yingchun nodded, but then hesitated again, and said hesitantly: “If the second uncle comes forward, it will make my father angry…”
“If you are angry, you will be angry. Recently, our family should be distanced from the Rongguo Mansion.”
In front of so many people, Sun Shaozong didn’t make his words too thorough. Anyway, he would have to give and receive privately in a few days.
However, when he came out of Jia Yingchun’s house, Sun Shaozong was about to change into his official robe and go to the Ministry of Rites to hand over errands. There were rumors from the outside that the prince had sent the prince of the house, Wang Dexiu, to come to the house to invite him, saying that he must be allowed to pass the house. Syria.
It’s still coming!
Sun Shaozong regained his energy, and went through the solution he had thought of yesterday in his mind again, so as not to make any omissions in the response.
However, how did he know that the prince invited him to go there for the purpose of omissions – to clear the leaks.
