Dressed as a widow, raising cubs, farming and building infrastructure in Ming Dynasty

Chapter 75

Qin Liu asked in disbelief: "You mean, our Liu family has touched the interests of the civil service group and cannot be tolerated..."

Yang Shen shook his head: "I am just guessing. Your Liu family comes from a poor family. Although you have contacts with Jiangnan forces, your relationship is loose. It is very likely that you will be suppressed by concentrated firepower. What's more, after the new emperor ascended the throne, he was young and energetic, and he suppressed and alienated the old minister Tuogu. , the Liu family's power was weakened, but they took the opportunity to be taken over...

Mr. Xie Qiange, who returned home from official service at the same time as Mr. Liu Ge, had nothing to do. He built two gardens with his son, Tanhualang Xie Pi. "

Qin Liu remained silent.

Zhu Yue might also know something, but he chose to keep silent and just let her be a little widow of the Li family who worries about trivial matters.

Yang Shen, whom she had grown up playing with since childhood, dragged her into Bo Yun's treacherous court battles.

Yang Shen spoke: "Ah Jiang, when I go to and from the capital, I find that there is an endless stream of Jin Yiwei who have been searching for young women and children around the capital in the past few years. I don't know if it has anything to do with you. You still have to be careful and don't expose yourself. identity."

Qin Liu came back to his senses and nodded solemnly: "Now I am just a little widow, and I am also the master behind this inn..."

Before Qin Liu finished speaking, a voice came from outside the room: "Mr. Yang, long time no see, why don't we also see you when we come to visit?"

Yang Shen's expression changed greatly, and he quickly stood up and asked Qin Liu and the little mute to hide in the inner room, and also brought the chestnut cake and Qin Liu's tea cup in.

Sitting down in the inner room, Qin Liu fell into deep thought.

Is it because the reexamination of the original case of killing a good man and taking advantage of the crime affected the interests of some people, so the men who were officials in the Liu family were killed together?
Liu Xuejiang, Liu Xuejiang, are you the sinner who brought disaster to the family?

Qin Liu felt unspeakable sadness in his heart.

Isn’t it natural to expose unjust cases and seek justice for those who have been wronged?As Emperor Xiaozong said, "If the matter is unclear, who of the generals will be willing to die?"

Those who uphold justice actually have to pay a heavy price?
What kind of absurd world is this? !
Is there any reason? !

Qin Liu felt his hand being gently squeezed.She turned to look at the little mute beside her, who looked at her worriedly and comfortingly.

Qin Liu felt a little more comfortable: No matter what, he still had a group of trustworthy friends around him to support each other, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

The sound of conversations outside slowly reached my ears.

Yang Shen said: "Eunuch Zhang, long time no see. You are so busy, why are you here in this wild place outside the pass?"

A slightly sharp middle-aged man's voice said: "Mr. Yang, you and the Emperor had a close friendship when we were in the East Palace. Why do we no longer have any contact with each other now? The Emperor still talks about you all the time."

Yang Shen said: "Eunuch Zhang is joking. Yongxiu is a useless scholar. He failed in the examination last year. How can he dare to be friends with the emperor?"

Eunuch Zhang waved his hand: "Only Liu Jin and Jiao Fang, a gang of evil-minded and treacherous people, can do such a clumsy trick as Denghua burning the test papers!

With Yang Gongzi's literary talent, it is easy to become the top scholar in high school.

Our family heard that last year Liu Jin forcibly gave the marking officer a list of names, and more than 50 people who relied on Liu Jin's party were all in high school. "

Yang Shen raised his eyebrows in surprise, shook his head and sneered: "With the 'Emperor of Standing' in the court, how can I, Yang Shen, stand out?"

Eunuch Zhang sighed and said: "The world has been suffering from Liu Jin for a long time. Our family had a fight with Liu Jin in front of the emperor. Although we have not lost our sacred heart, we are increasingly being tolerated by Liu Jin."

Mr. Yang, your father has returned to the cabinet now. You and I had some friendship back then, and we can be regarded as like-minded. Please take some precautions, Mr. Yang, to gain some life for us! Yang Shen clasped his fists and saluted, and said in a sonorous tone: "My father has long said that if Eunuch Zhang hadn't mentioned him in front of the emperor, he would still be serving as a casualty in Nanjing!"
Not only was he an old man, but Yang Shen also received help from Eunuch Zhang many times when he was young. This kindness is engraved in his heart and will never be forgotten. "

Eunuch Zhang nodded: "Master Yang, do you still remember the old thing about borrowing ginseng?"

Yang Shen smiled and said: "Of course I remember, this matter has to be dealt with by Eunuch Zhang..."

Before Yang Shen finished speaking, Eunuch Zhang said: "The emperor has always remembered this, saying that only Miss Ajiang can save the lives of Tatars with rare century-old ginseng..."

Yang Shen's expression changed, his eyes became dark, and he stopped talking. He was unsure of Eunuch Zhang's intentions.

Eunuch Zhang's eyes flickered and he said tentatively: "Mr. Yang, do you know that it has been three years since the emperor's wedding and he has no heirs? Why?"

The corner of Yang Shen's lips curled up slightly: "How can a useless scholar know the secrets of the palace curtains?"

But Eunuch Zhang lowered his voice: "Our family heard that Queen Xia and several concubines are still virgins..."

Yang Shen was shocked and looked at Eunuch Zhang in disbelief: "You mean, you mean, Your Majesty, he can't do it?"

Eunuch Zhang waved his hands and denied: "The emperor is not very talented now. He is full of energy in his youth and spends his days practicing martial arts and fighting beasts to vent his energy in the leopard room. How could it not be possible?

Our family heard that the emperor once said, 'If you wish to win the heart of one person, we will never be apart until we grow old together'..."

Yang Shen was stunned, then straightened his expression: "There are constant rumors in the market that the emperor broke into people's houses at night and forced women to accompany them. Isn't Eunuch Zhang joking?"

Eunuch Zhang’s face darkened: “That’s just a rumor that slanders the emperor and our ministers.

The emperor's knot was still unsolved, and the search for the missing person was unsuccessful. He had already scolded Liu Jin many times.The beautiful woman has passed away, but Mr. Yang and his childhood sweethearts still have some old friendship or old things.

If you can use this to plan, you may have a chance to bring down Liu Jin.Mr. Yang doesn’t want to be a Jinshi in his life, right? "

Yang Shen looked shocked and serious, silent.

Eunuch Zhang did not rush him and poured tea by himself.

After a cup of tea, before Yang Shen could say anything, noises came from outside the house: "Yang Juzi, what kind of big show are you setting up? But after we meet you, what is there to be afraid of?"

Yang Shen frowned and looked at Eunuch Zhang beside him. Eunuch Zhang nodded slightly after hesitating, and Yang Shen raised his voice and said, "Come in!"

The door opened, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy in a brocade robe came in, followed by several healthy servants. His face was a little childish but his expression was arrogant, and his actions showed the arrogance and arrogance of a playboy.

The young man glanced at Eunuch Zhang and Yang Shen, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The eunuch Zhang Yong and Yang Ge Lao's eldest son are planning a secret meeting outside the pass. What big thing are they plotting? I think Liu Jin would be very interested in coming?"

Yang Shen angrily scolded: "Zhang Zong said, don't you dare to slander others! I am a destitute person traveling abroad, what can I have up my sleeve?"

Eunuch Zhang said from the ground: "Why did the Shouning Hou Crown Prince come to this border town?"

The dandy boy named Zhang Zongshuo laughed a few times and said: "Old Zhang is so happy, I won't hide it. Half of the tea leaves for the horses this time are from our Zhang family, so this matter will be ignored!" "
