Chapter 8 Self-supporting female household?

"Uncle Huang, nephew, this is just a small fight, it's nothing to worry about. The brothers are the ones who work hard and show their supernatural powers. Many people praise the brothers very much." Gu Xuanyue said reverently.

Being praised for his son's ability, as a father, even if he is the emperor, he is happy. "You you."

The two people in the hall were chatting and laughing, and the eunuch Chen Gonggong occasionally joked a few words, and the monarch and his ministers had fun together.The emperor also felt the family happiness for a long time.

Outside the hall, the eldest prince Gu Zhao and the second prince Gu Chang arrived at the same time, and they were standing quietly outside waiting for the transmission. Hearing the laughter inside, he felt very uncomfortable.

Because the father has always suspected that Gu Xuanyue's almost accident was caused by the two princes' grandfathers.Both of them have been true colors to him these years.Moreover, the father was in his prime, and he didn't want to foster their ambitions, so he hadn't established a prince yet.

After the little eunuch was passed on, the two princes entered the main hall of the Royal Study Room.

"Congratulations, father, long live, long live, long live."

"Pingshen." The emperor restrained his smile and said.

"Elder Brother, Second Brother." Gu Xuanyue stepped forward to salute.

"Xuan Yue is being polite."

Gu Xuanyue paid homage to the emperor again: "Uncle Huang, you and your brothers have official business to discuss, so my nephew will leave first."

Emperor: "Xuanyue, don't rush to leave. You also come to study the details together. Take a look, this is the record of the corruption case in Yangzhou."

Everyone circulated it one by one, the two princes already knew about this matter, after a brief glance, Gu Xuanyue read the notes carefully.

The Yangzhou corruption case involves a wide range of cases, which is unheard of, and no officials, big or small, in the entire Yangzhou area were spared.It is said that the magistrate of the county has been cleared for three years, and one hundred thousand snowflakes in silver, let alone corrupt officials.

In the past few years, the territory of Yangzhou has been disturbed by these people.If it wasn't for someone's family being ruined, who tried his best to avoid being chased and killed, and went to Beijing to sue the imperial court, I'm afraid this matter would not have seen the light of day.

The eldest prince said: "Father, my son thinks that this matter should be investigated strictly. Officials, big and small, should be held accountable one by one. Only severe punishment can suppress officials in Yangzhou and other places. Yangzhou is already rich, let alone our dynasty The official salary is generous, such people are really lawless and violate the great trust of the father."

"Chang'er, what do you think?"

"Father, sons and brothers have slightly different views. If hundreds of Yangzhou officials are sent to prison, even if Kaoenke is added, it will not be enough to supplement officials. At that time, the people in Yangzhou will be even more desperate."

The eldest prince: "Then what should I do according to my brother's opinion?"

"Father, according to what my son sees, this group of people should be divided into two, and the crimes should be treated differently. If the crime is unforgivable, it will never be forgiven. If the crime is negligent, return the embezzled money to make up for it. One of the party members went to preside over the overall situation."

"Oh? Brother Huang, have you thought about which minister you want to send there?"

"Brother Huang, the selection of candidates is determined by the emperor."

"Okay. Xuanyue, you can also talk about it." The two princes have already participated in politics, and what they said are all the views of the court ministers, and there is nothing new.

"Uncle Huang, my nephew thinks that the two imperial brothers are reasonable. Although my nephew feels the suffering of the people in Yangzhou, I only play with a bunch of dudes on weekdays. I have no suggestion on this matter. Please forgive me, Uncle Huang."

The emperor knew that he didn't want to steal the limelight from his elder brother, so he didn't make things difficult for him.Besides, no matter who goes to Yangzhou, that person cannot belong to the faction of the First Prince or the Second Prince.Xuan Yue knew that he had come to a conclusion, so he didn't say any more.

"You, you know the sufferings of the people in Yangzhou, and it's not in vain to teach me for many years. It's just that you share my worries more and more."

The father and emperor praised the suffering of the people in Yangzhou, and the two princes felt very bitter.

"Uncle Huang, my nephew is really ashamed. Grandmother asked my nephew to go and come back quickly, and my nephew will go to perform his filial piety in front of his grandmother. My nephew will leave."

"You monkey, go." The emperor laughed angrily.

The little eunuch smiled wryly at His Highness Prince Gong who was running wildly ahead.

Outside Shoukang Palace, Gu Xuanyue saw that the palace people were standing far away from the palace gate, and knew that the imperial grandmother was discussing important matters again.But he quickly pasted the palace door and openly listened to the corner.The little maids covered their mouths and laughed when they saw his antics.

I only heard the queen mother say: "A few years ago, Lin Lang wanted the Ai family to give her and Liu Xi a marriage, and the Ai family even reprimanded her. I don't think so many years have passed, but she is still thinking about it, and she has to come here to cry from time to time. What is it? Our royal family owes the queen, she has no children, only this one daughter, the Ai Family doesn't want her to worry about Lin Lang's marriage."

"Now that Yu'er wants to retire, Ai's family wants to fulfill Lin Lang. It's just that Ai's family is afraid of missing out on Liu Xi, so it's hard for Yu'er to find a good son-in-law. It's really embarrassing!"

Huang Nanny said: "Madam, it's hard to have both in the world, so it's better to go with the flow. As for Miss Yan, how about you give her a marriage in the future. Maybe, Miss Yan will have her own fortune in the future, and it's also a good thing for someone who is destined to meet unexpectedly. some."

The palace gate was pushed open with a "squeak", only Xuanyue said: "Grandmother, my grandson has a plan to relieve my grandmother's worries."

"Grandmother, how long will you have to listen to me before you come in? In the entire palace, you are the only one who dares to listen to the corner of the wall openly." The Queen Mother nodded Xuan Yue's forehead.

"Isn't it because the emperor's grandmother loves her grandson, so the grandson has the guts?"

"Go and go, it's getting more and more nonsense. Listen to Aijia, tell me, what can you do?"

"How about Miss Ciyan to set up her own family?"

"How come, among the folks, only those women whose natal family is extinct and whose husband's family can't tolerate set up a female household. Yu'er, a little girl, can't do it."

"Grandmother, isn't Miss Yan's natal family now extinct, and her in-law's family doesn't come to propose marriage? Miss Yan is also unwilling to marry such an in-law's family. If they get married in the future, it will be even more difficult for Miss Yan to deal with herself."

Gu Xuanyue had never been so worried about one thing, and now he finally had the opportunity to mention the thoughts that popped up every time he saw that little coward.But he did this just to repay his kindness, um.

"Bah, bah, how could Yu'er get together and leave, but you have a crow's mouth."

"Oh, grandma, the grandson said it was false. You also said that Lin Lang likes Liu Xi"

"Shut up, don't go out and ruin your sister's reputation." The Queen Mother shouted.

If a few years ago, Lin Lang had taken a fancy to Liu Xi and pestered the emperor's grandmother year after year, but there was no news from outside, it could be seen that the emperor's grandmother had issued a sealing order.

"Grandmother, you don't know about your grandson. The grandson is the least willing to talk about such trifles. It's just because Miss Yan is really suffering, so I just say something." Gu Xuanyue raised Erlang's feet, showing nothing Leaning on the armchair, he even threw a grape into his mouth.

Gu Xuanyue continued to persuade: "You said, when the time comes, Miss Yan will set up her own daughter-in-law and live a comfortable life. Linlang found a good son-in-law, and you can be considered as compensation to the emperor's aunt. Liu Xishang princess, Liuxian County Prince's Mansion will be upgraded to a higher level , Everyone is happy, isn’t it great!”

"What you said is also reasonable. Let grandma think about it for herself."

Gu Xuanyue knew that the emperor's grandmother was shaken, so he didn't say any more.

In the next few days, he was a filial son and grandson at the knee of the emperor's grandmother.
