Chapter 711 Chapter 710
Qi Baoer was stunned for a moment, and asked in doubt: "They solved this matter privately?"

If it is not resolved privately, those who can open a shop in Beijing are either related to people with power or titles. It is impossible that no one in Beijing will know about this.

Qian Wentong pursed his lips, "There are two shops next door, one is the shop of Concubine Han's natal family, and the other is the shop of Dingguo's mansion; Lu Haibo can't afford to offend any one, so he can only pay the money and then come to the door to apologize .

Lu Haibo paid a lot for this, but the silver was not much, and the shop was refurbished, and it would only cost thousands of taels; he mainly paid a lot in compensation, one shop was lost, and the Zhuangzi lost one. I heard there were still others. Two relatively large jade objects. "

Qi Baoer is not interested in this, what she is puzzled is... "What do you want to tell me these things?"

Qian Wentong has a kind of embarrassment of being exposed on the spot, but fortunately, he has always been used to thick skin in front of Qi Baoer, and there is nothing strange on his face: "Lv Haibo went out for such a big sum, those old and weak soldiers can't help anymore .”

As far as he knew, Lu Haibo had already owed a lot of money away from home. The shop and Zhuangzi that were paid out this time belonged to his family, but they had already been transferred to others.

Coincidentally, that friend of Lu Haibo and Qian Wentong were also old acquaintances, and the amount of money Lu Haibo borrowed was huge, and that friend couldn't get it out for a while, but he admired Lu Haibo's character and was willing to help him, so he went around Ask your friends to borrow it.

No, I also borrowed Qian Wentong; one of the two jade pieces is one of Qian Wentong's daughter-in-law's compensation, but I just estimated the price and wrote an IOU, and now it has been placed in the Han Palace. I don't know which master In the warehouse.

Qian Wentong didn't feel sorry for the jade piece, but felt unhappy. Those who really did good deeds became more and more unsatisfactory, while those who only lived on the basis of false names still looked down on the world without knowing the sufferings of the world.

Feel unfair?
But his living environment and upbringing since he was a child made him not have a clear feeling of this kind, he just felt uncomfortable when thinking about it; and this kind of discomfort seemed to be dissipated only by doing something for Lu Haibo.

Qian Wentong didn't know that Qi Bao'er had already put this matter on her agenda, "I will discuss this matter with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After a moment of silence, she said: "Brother Qian, this matter is not just about Lu Haibo and the old, weak and disabled soldiers that Lu Haibo helped. Those who have left the barracks, whether they are deceased or veterans."

Qian Wentong felt as if someone had knocked his forehead with a stick, and suddenly felt ashamed to look directly at Qi Bao'er.

He is indeed narrow-minded. He has never really thought about what to do for the soldiers. Instead, when the armies go to the Ministry of War, they will solve the problem after being assigned by the Minister.

Now I think about the problem of the old, weak and disabled soldiers, and it is only because I saw Lu Haibo's plight that I thought of helping each other, but I didn't really go for the old and weak and disabled soldiers.

Qi Bao'er didn't know what Qian Wentong was thinking at this time. After noticing that there was no one around, she said softly: "You'd better not let anyone go to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice in the near future. You'd better not get involved in matters related to adults."

Qian Wentong's face turned pale, "My lord..."

My lord knows that he secretly sent someone to take care of the Shang family in the prison! !

Qi Baoer looked at him with frowned eyebrows, "Qian Shilang, the reason why Mr. Shang's case has not yet been convicted is because the emperor is waiting for the news at the border. If the evidence of the crime is true, it is inevitable that the whole family of the Shang family will be executed. The emperor's mood at that time.

At this time, if you are still getting too close to the Shang family, is it because you are afraid that others will not have a sharp weapon to attack you? "

Qian Wentong's heart twitched, his soul almost flew out of fright, "My lord, I'm just..."

Qi Bao'er raised her hand to stop him from speaking, "I know, you are because of the friendship of your colleagues, Mr. Shang was once your highest peak after all, and you did not work together for a day or two, but for several years.

If you really ignore the suffering of Master Shang's family, then I will feel sad.

But Qian Shilang, we are the parents and officials of the people first, and then we are ourselves. We should put our family, country and people first. "

A hint of obscurity flashed in Qian Wentong's eyes, and suddenly a sense of sadness rose in his heart.

"Yes, my lord has taught me to keep this in mind. My lord, I still have official duties, so I resigned."

Qi Baoer took a deep look at him, said "hmm" and then ignored him and continued walking.

It wasn't until Qi Bao'er walked away that Qian Wentong accepted the gift and straightened up. Looking at Qi Bao'er, who only had Dao's back in the distance, he sighed long and walked back disappointed.

Along the way, even when someone greeted him, he hurried past as if he was obviously shocked.

Before entering the office, he left a sentence of "Do Not Disturb", then closed the door of the office and did not come out for a long time.

Not long after, the Ministry of War reported that Qian Shilang had been reprimanded by Master Shangshu.

Everyone knew that the newly-appointed Qi Shangshu had a good relationship with Qian Shilang, and this sudden announcement made everyone in the Ministry of War feel agitated.

Some people feel uneasy. Could it be that this is one of the three fires for the new official to take office?
Some people were terrified, Qi Shangshu even reprimanded Qian Shilang who had a good relationship with him, so what about those people who are not even familiar with Qi Shangshu?

Some people took pleasure in other people's misfortune, they could not see Qian Shilang pampering Lord Shangshu every day.

Unbeknownst to him, after Qian Wentong closed the door of his office, he immediately patted his chest in fear and poured himself a whole pot of tea.

Damn, fortunately, Master Shangshu is righteous, or he may be gone in a few days.

He is not stupid, he will not fail to see the real intention of Master Shangshu today.

For the six departments in the palace, what news can be hidden from the emperor?
If Master Shang Shu just wanted to warn him, it would be absolutely impossible to say those things to him in the Ministry of War.

There is only one possibility, not only the Lord Shangshu knows about his help to the Shang family, but also—or the emperor knows it; or people who want to harm him know it, and it will also spread to the emperor's ears. to deal with him.

At the beginning, he was not sure about this, but after Lord Shangshu stopped him from speaking and found some reasons for him, he knew that those words of Lord Shangshu were not meant for him, but were meant to be spoken by others. Into the emperor's ears.

In this way, he can be excluded from Mr. Shang's case as much as possible.

Also from this point of view...
Qian Wentong felt chills all over his body. It seemed that Mr. Shang's case was worrying.
-
On this side, Qi Baoer has wandered to the newly cleaned yard behind.

This yard does not belong to the Ministry of War after careful calculation.

In the former dynasty, the six departments were not located in the imperial palace, and the entire area here was once subordinate to the harem.

Because the back palace on the other side is separated by the front palace in the middle, this side was used by successive emperors of the previous dynasty as the residence for the dowagers.

There is no door leading directly to the front palace, and it is basically completely separated from the front palace and the back palace.
