Chapter 272 The Hua Family
In short, the main reason for buying an official this time is that the Hua family used the name of the third prince to deceive some officials in Haicheng, and bought and sold such small officials as the county magistrate at will.

The magistrate of Ning County was not the first one. There were two other magistrates under the rule of Haicheng who also did this. However, after those two became county magistrates, they were very obedient and did not cause any trouble.

Emperor Qinglong did not implicate the third prince in this incident, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that the Hua family was definitely doomed.

The instigator this time was Hua Zhizhou. When he was escorted to the capital, after a trial, he might be exiled.Not to mention Wu Taixian, who bears several lives on his body.

Ruyi did not expect that at this juncture, Huamei would come to Xianfu Palace to look for her.

Seeing the beautiful woman with a haggard expression and bruises under her eyes, Ruyi felt no sympathy.

"Empress Xi, can you please help me plead with the emperor? My family really didn't mean it. I didn't expect that Wu Taixian dared to kill people." Huamei felt that Concubine Xi was always easy to talk to and kind-hearted.

Ruyi even laughed a little angrily. Could it be that this beautiful woman still thinks that as long as Wu Taixian is a good person, then it is not a big problem for Hua Zhizhou to do this?

"You don't need to say it. This is a state matter. There is an emperor and national laws. You can do whatever you want." Ruyi said it back in one sentence.

"But, my father really didn't expect that the two county magistrates before were also good." Huamei continued to plead.

"Go away, I can't help you." Ruyi's face was expressionless, having nothing to say to such a person who has no right or wrong.

"Your Majesty, the third prince wants to see you." Hua Meiren wanted to continue crying and begging, but Chunyu came in to report.

"Let him in."

"Greetings to Concubine Xi." After Chengqing found out about the Hua family, he was also very angry because he was using the name of the third prince's maternal family.

"Yeah. Take Huamei back home. I can't help with the Hua family's affairs." Ruyi has always had a good impression of the third prince.

"Concubine, let's go back. The affairs of the Hua family have their own national laws." The third prince did not want to meddle in the affairs of the Hua family, but his concubine has always been very good to him. Although he is not his biological child, he is better than his own. of.

"Chengqing." Hua Meiren looked at Chengqing in disbelief that her son didn't help.

"Concubine, please go back to Huamu Garden." The third prince stepped forward to help her.

Huamei shook it off and said, "Are you not ready to recognize this grandma? You are a heartless person. I have sent so many good things to you from Xiaohua's family."

Chengqing was a little hurt when he heard what Huamei said, but insisted on taking the person away.

Ruyi sighed after watching the people leave. This was not easy for Chengqing.Suddenly I remembered that Huamei had given me a pearl head and face and mutton-fat white jade, and I felt it was hot to hold it.

night.

"I have saved some money in the past few years, and I would like to donate it privately to Ci'an Hall, not included in the share of the textile factory." Ruyi said when she saw that the old emperor was full.

"What? Is Ci'an Hall encountering difficulties?" Emperor Qinglong was confused, because there have been positive reviews about Ci'an Hall recently, and wealthy businessmen have voluntarily donated money. It seems to be very good.

"No. Because the third prince's smallpox was still open, Huamei gave me some things, but now I feel uncomfortable holding them." Ruyi originally thought that the Hua family was particularly rich, but now she knows that they are indeed rich, but this is the case The origin.

"Heh, don't be burdened. At that time, Chengqing was safe and sound, and you contributed a lot. It's nothing to accept the thank you gift." Emperor Qinglong laughed, so it turned out that such a thing.

"Let's donate some, it will make my heart feel at ease." Ruyi had already made up her mind, and Ci'an Church was sure that more money would be better. "With money, you can hire a wife for the children, teach them some crafts, and they can live independently when they grow up."

"This is indeed a method. Some ministers have also proposed it before. It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish." Emperor Qinglong nodded.

After this day, Ruyi did not pay too much attention to the follow-up of the Hua family. She only heard a little bit about being exiled. If it were not for the consideration of the third prince, he would not be able to escape the death penalty.

However, with this incident, the mother-son relationship between Hua Mei and the third prince dropped to a freezing point.On the pretext of filial piety, Hua Meiren often asked the third prince to do unknown things.

It wasn't until Emperor Qinglong went to warn him that he was not her biological child anyway, so at worst the third prince would be recorded in the name of the queen.The old emperor's casual words that day made Hua Meiren calm down. She no longer had a maternal family, and if she lost the third prince, she would have nothing.

When the queen heard this sentence, she felt a wave of emotion in her heart for some reason. However, later, when she saw that the relationship between Hua Mei and the third prince had eased, and Emperor Qinglong did not follow up, the queen felt a little pity.
