Lonely non-good minister

Song Yuan reacted belatedly, and lowered his head: "The child will definitely not embarrass the father, please rest assured."

"Well, get up, it's a good family feast, it doesn't have to be a confession meeting." Wang Xu of Zhongshan helped Xiao Shen, and Song Yuan also got up quickly.

After sitting down, King Zhongshan's mood obviously improved a lot, and the atmosphere of the family banquet gradually warmed up.

After the banquet, Song Yuan accompanied Xiao Shen back home, the maid held the lamp in front, and Chun Yang accompanied him with the lamp in his hand.

"Mother did it on purpose?"

Xiao Shen smiled: "Although your father expressed his support for the reform of Tianmu, he didn't give you any convenience. These old fritters who have been in the officialdom can naturally see that you are not liked by him, and they don't care about other places. Now you When we arrived in Zhongshan, everyone was naturally waiting to make things difficult for you, so as to show that they respected your father, and at this time, you naturally need your father to express his opinion."

Song Yuan nodded again and again: "It's still my mother who thinks well."

Xiao Shen looked at her: "Don't rush everything, and pay attention to rest."

"Well, mother, don't worry, I know it well."

She sent Xiao Shen to the entrance of the courtyard before returning to her own courtyard. On the way back, she met a maid from the side concubine's courtyard rushing towards the second gate. slip.

"Hey, slow down." Song Yuan asked Wei Yan to wait for her: "Why are you so flustered?"

Seeing that it was her, the maid relaxed her tense expression a little bit: "Master Hui, our side concubine is suddenly not well, this servant is going to invite a doctor."

She was really anxious, she turned on the light and left in a hurry, limping and completely ignoring her injury.

Song Yuan looked at the concubine's courtyard, but he didn't dare to meddle in other matters, so he hurriedly took Wei Yan away.

Early the next morning, she went to King Zhongshan's study early and waited. After waiting for a long time, King Zhongshan came over. Song Yuan hurriedly greeted him, and after he sat down, she said: "Father, the family in Zhongshan who was questioned by Tingwei Mansion The fields and houses have already been counted, and according to the government's decree, these fields must be re-measured and divided before they can be rented out, and the autumn harvest will be imminent, and my child thinks that we can sub-lease now."

"Sublet now? How to deal with the food in the field?"

"Naturally, all of them will be taken back to the Yamen." Song Yuan said as he wished.

King Zhongshan was quite satisfied: "How to deal with the tenants in those families?"

"The tenants of the offender's family are under the control of the yamen, and they can participate in the leased land farming. They are still slaves, but the court can make them profit in a [-]-[-] way. If they have the ability to redeem themselves, they can be restored to be a good family. At that time, it will be fine according to the rules of the good family’s three-seven division.” Song Yuan explained patiently, she was absolutely sure that Zhongshan King hadn’t specifically understood the rules of Tianmu’s innovation until now.

King Zhongshan was not very satisfied with this treatment: "Since it is a tenant, how can it be entitled to a [-]-[-] share?"

Song Yuan didn't say a word, the regulation was submitted to the court for all officials to discuss after repeated discussions in the Situ Mansion, but if King Zhongshan offered dim sum, he could bring it up at that time, so what's the point of talking to her now?

But he just muttered a few words, didn't continue to criticize, took a sip of tea and said: "Go ahead, report to me in advance, don't frighten people with the gold medal that the emperor rewarded you."

Song Yuan:? ? ?When did she scare people with a gold medal?

Although he really wanted to roll his eyes, Song Yuan endured it and exited in a polite manner.

She went to Xiaoshen's courtyard, but only Chunyang was there, seeing her coming, she quickly brought up the freshly made bird's nest porridge, and the maid also brought four or five small dishes and snacks to accompany the porridge.

"Auntie, mother, Anne, hasn't come back yet?" Song Yuan first ate a piece of snack to cushion his stomach.

Chunyang took out the porridge and said: "I went to the courtyard of the side concubine Wang. The concubine heard that the concubine Wang was ill and took everyone to visit. The concubine remembered that the son must be still hungry, so she asked the slaves to come back and wait." .”

"Oh." Song Yuan blew the porridge: "I went to see the concubine Wang, she was seriously ill, and I don't know if the father will let the fifth brother come back."

Chunyang shook her head, but she couldn't guess what King Zhongshan was thinking.

Song Yuan was full and Xiao Shen did not come back, so she had to go out first, and took Wei Yan and others to the yamen. Now that she had reported it, she should start working.

After a busy day outside, Song Yuan was exhausted from arguing with a group of slippery officials. When she returned to the house in the evening, she didn't have any energy at all. She shuffled back to her yard and lay down on the table.

Working hard in Leping is not so tiring. For a whole day, either this place is inappropriate or there is not a rule. They discuss how to measure and divide according to the field acre booklet. The group of people can come up with more than a dozen ideas and no one agrees with the other. , it is really difficult to communicate.

She was so tired that she turned her head and lay down on the low couch. She closed her eyes and saw Xiao Shen bringing Chunyang in, but she didn't have the energy to stand up again.

"So tired?" Sitting next to her, Xiao Shen squeezed her arm: "I ran outside for a whole day, and I didn't eat anything. Eat something before going to bed."

Song Yuan shook his head and muttered softly, "I don't want to eat."

"Then rest first." Xiao Shen rubbed her quietly, Song Yuan closed her eyes, sleepiness swept over her, she wanted to sleep so much, but when she thought of being sweaty and hungry, she fell asleep again No more.

Opening his eyes and looking at Xiao Shen, Song Yuan moved up: "Mother, will the Queen's concubine recover from her illness?"

Xiao Shen shook her head slightly: "Your father has sent someone to write to Jingzhao, requesting that your fifth elder brother go home for the funeral."

Already making preparations for the funeral
Song Yuan suddenly became scared, she was worried that she would go too far, and it would be a very unlucky idea for Xiao Shen, but she was just afraid, so she quickly grabbed Xiao Shen's hand.

"Birth, old age, sickness and death are inevitable. Nowadays, not only the women in the palace are getting old, but few of the female family members in the Eastern Palace Palace are young. Such things are not unusual."

Song Yuan asked softly: "Yesterday at the family banquet, my father and king embarrassed my aunt in public. I saw Concubine Liu's expression seemed particularly happy. She has always been a gentle and kind person, but her behavior last night was utterly hypocritical. I bumped into the maid next to Concubine Wang to ask for a doctor, and I always felt that the serious illness of Concubine Liu and Concubine Wang could not be separated."

Xiao Shen patted her head: "Your brothers have grown up, even though your father's future is still settled, they can't hold back anymore, they are fighting in the vanity fair, and the birth mothers can't do it in the back house." I'm idle, besides, Concubine Wang and Concubine Liu already have old grudges, but they left them in Zhongshan, I'm afraid it will add a lot of conflicts, even if it is behind the scenes, it is common."

Old hate?It's about fighting for favor when you were young.

Song Yuan didn't ask carefully, it was a contradiction between the elders, she couldn't care about it.
