After going to the yamen, Huo Yixiao arrived at the Xia family's house.

Before, he and Wen Yan said a few simple words before leaving behind.

Wen Yan came out of the house, and Sui Niang followed her, holding two bamboo shoots dug out in her arms.

I have planted many flowers and plants in the Xia family.

My grandmother likes to take care of these things, some are expensive and some are common and easy to support.

After being vacant for three years, many flowers and plants have died, leaving only some tenacious vitality, no one takes care of them, and they are still changing with the four seasons.

Among them is bamboo.

It is straight and tall, and new bamboo shoots are still emerging in the spring rain season.

Wen Yan and Huo Yixiao returned to Dafeng Street together. They quickly made bamboo shoots, pickles, soup and rice cakes in the kitchen. They melted a spoonful of lard into it, and the aroma was so strong.

The two of them used it while talking about trivial matters.

"Yuan Ji has been in a daze for so many years, but he finally did something clear," Huo Yixiao said, "his family has been saved for him."

Because of the heavy punishment of the Shen family, Zhao Taibao, Chen Zhenghan and others discussed with the emperor many times, and if possible, they would reduce the amount of money.

Yuan Ji was executed according to the law, but he surrendered himself and honestly explained a lot of things.

If the disaster is worse than the family, it will also leave a way for officials with the same problems in the future.

The emperor is angry and knows this truth.

Today, for stability, many officials who are closely related to the Shen family have been spared, but this account will be settled sooner or later.

With Yuan Ji as an example in the past, it is also easy for later generations to know that they can be more proactive and honest, and save some trouble for the court, so that they can save things.

Huang Buqing was still busy with the Ministry of War these days, but after the affairs of the northern border were settled, he would be moved to the left and transferred to Pingyang Prefecture as the prefect.

It seems that it has not dropped much, but if you are far away from the capital, you will never be able to transfer it back in your life unless you have made great contributions.

Of course, it is not because someone "poor" him, but because Huang Buqing is a man with good government affairs, and it is more than enough to be a good prefect.

If he was demoted to a nest, he would be really a killer to kill a chicken, so it would be better to let Lord Huang do more for the court.

As for Qin Zheng, judging from the memorial sent back, he was at Dingmen Pass and did not dare to be lazy at all.

After all, he is at that age and should be old in a few years. Zhao Taibao suggested that the emperor keep him and bring a few useful newcomers out. After all, the Ministry of War was severely injured in this time and many minor officials were demoted and punished.

There is still Li Sanjie, who has already taken action on government affairs in the next door, but the Ministry of War has lost its talent.

"Sir Li can be promoted." Wen Yan laughed.

On the day of rehabilitation, Lord Li and Wen Zifu were having a drink in Yanzi Hutong, and he was so happy.

Huo Yixiao chuckled.

Dong Zhisheng is bound to lose his head.

It’s not that Sansi insisted on touching him at this time, but that Feng Jieyu would not let this person who was lip service.

While waiting for the answer from the Wenban, Feng Jieyu was investigating the Dong family.

Although she had no kindness to help the Rong Bo Mansion, Feng Jieyu was not unattended. In addition, she had more or less clear about the affairs of the Dong family over the years, and she had handed several copies of the report to the Censorate, all of which were the Dong family's affairs.

A few years ago, Dong Wenjing instigated Zhu Sheng to do something bad.

Looking for flowers and willows is a trivial matter, and there are some other things to do. Zhu Sheng didn't dare to say it before, and the prince's concubine Liu also hid it for him. Concubine Feng must ask, so Liu said it out.

There are some evil things that Zhu Sheng did not participate, but Dong Wenjing did it under the name of Zhu Sheng.

Concubine Feng Jie turned over all these old accounts and sent them to the Censorate in secret.

If you give too much, there will naturally be someone who writes an impeachment memorial saying that Dong Zhisheng indulges his descendants.

Dong Zhisheng lost the Princess Yongshou behind him. If he had known the ending of his family, he would have accepted his fate.

Since the Shen family fell and the eldest princess left the capital, there was no way out for the Dong family.

It can't even compare to Yuan Ji.

He was only waiting for the day when the order was issued to convict.

Zhong Shilang of the Ministry of Works was taken to Dingmen Pass by Qin Zheng. As long as you don’t be stupid, you will probably be fined a few years in the end, so you can save your life and leave your official position.

"It's not suitable for killing," Huo Yixiao put down his chopsticks and said, "Otherwise, there will be more people in the court."

Wen Yan couldn't help laughing: "I went to Taichang Temple with Mr. Gao today, and I saw Ma Shaoqing. If I hadn't been able to change it, the emperor wouldn't have kept him."

Ma Shaoqing refers to Ma Zengshi.

Enrong Bo’s mansion abandoned Feng Jieyu and Zhu Sheng and turned to Zhu Yu and the Shen family to show their affection. The reward given to them was to put Enrong Bo’s Feng Lu’s cousin Ma Zengshi on the seat of Shaoqing of Taichang Temple.

I have stepped on too many boats and my identity is too complicated. In the end, I may not be able to get it anywhere.

Anyway, not to mention Feng Jieyu, who seemed powerless, jumped up and bite from time to time, whether it was the emperor or Zhu Yu, they might not trust Enrong Bo Mansion and Ma Zengshi.

Huo Yixiao did not say much about Ma Zengshi, but only said Gao Fang: "Looking at it today, Mr. Gao is much worse than a year ago."

"This age is rare," said Wen Yan. "Besides, we went to visit him in the past. This time he took a bus to Beijing. He was old and had a bumpy journey, and was particularly tired."

Huo Yixiao nodded.

Wen Yan took a sip of the soup, thought to herself, and said, "The old man is like this, and in the end the oil is gone. In fact, it is also a blessing to be able to really go to the point when the light is gone."

Huo Yixiao glanced at Wen Yan.

"Mr. Gao has two years left," said Wen Yan. "However, when the Pingxi Marquis's Mansion was rehabilitated, he was in a good mood, which would probably be a little different. Or maybe, he felt that his wish had come true and he had no worries...

The former one, like my grandmother, actually hasn't been in her dream for many years, but she lives happily now. I don't think she can't stick to it anymore.

Mr. Gao is probably the latter type. He is too old and can be easily seen.

No matter what, I think it is much better to be able to leave without regrets than to leave with obsession."

Huo Yixiao hugged his chest with both hands and laughed shortly: "Speak straight away if you have something to do."

Wen Yan didn't say anything, just looked at him with a smile.

Xiao Ye clearly understands what she needs to say.

With all eyes facing each other, Huo Yixiao was defeated, or he had a bias in this matter and did not think about winning.

"Let's go in a while," said Huo Yixiao, "When my uncle returns to Beijing, I will go over and meet the old lady."

Although he didn't know what he could say to Mrs. Jin in private, there was a little fox here, and she and the old lady were there to go home, so he sat next to listen, which was always a way to deal with it.

After all, Mrs. Jin’s age…
