Chapter 900 Dark Tide
Man Bao lay on his back and said, "What's going on here? This time, sir, he's very angry."
Zhou Lang carried Man Bao home, cleaned her hands, and after eating, she gave ointment to her little hands. This was the ointment she had tried to make before. Because it was a practice, Doctor Ji thought it was not good enough, so he gave it to Man Bao.
Gone home.
It's just that she never had the chance to use it. Now it's better. She opened a jar and divided it into three parts and still had extra.
As soon as the medicine was applied, a servant from the Bai family brought a pack of medicine over, "The young master asked me to bring it. It was said to be medicinal materials for foot soaking. There are many in the warehouse at home, so I sent some to Miss Man."
Qian took it, asked Manbao about it, and gave her a foot bath.
Although standing for five hours a day was tiring, standing for a long time helped develop leg strength. After seven or eight days of pain, the three of them gradually got better, and every day they hunched their necks or opened their necks and chanted in the yard.
Mr. Zhuang was sitting in front of the window, listening and reading his own book, feeling quite at peace in the years.
The time here in Qili Village is peaceful, but there is an undercurrent surging outside. Not only the founders, Magistrate Yang and Magistrate Tang, but also the King of Yizhou felt an inexplicable atmosphere.
News came from the capital that the emperor planned to send a censor to inspect Jiannan, especially the Yizhou area, because this year's tax exemption period for the imperial court was coming, and the emperor wanted to know whether the victims of the disaster in Yizhou had settled down.
Of course, the court is still deliberating and has not yet decided.
But based on King Yizhou's understanding of the emperor, there is a high probability that this will happen.
The situation in the DPRK was unstable, changing from day to day, and no one knew what would happen next. King Yizhou did not want outsiders to enter his territory.
At this time, the King of Yizhou did not know that a group of people from the capital had quietly come to Yizhou. At this time, the emperor was repeatedly looking through the account books, rosters, letters and deeds presented. The account books were divided into two parts.
One part is original and one part is edited.
The emperor looked at it for a while, then closed it again and asked: "I forgot to ask Tang Qing yesterday who compiled this account book. I think that although the handwriting is still immature, it has some character. Well, three people, one of them is worse.
, these two people are very good, and Xiao Tang Aiqing has also recruited many capable people in Yizhou City."
How does Lord Tang know who compiled this account book?
He thought for a while and then said: "The booklet was sent by the magistrate of Luojiang County. It should be someone under the command of Magistrate Yang."
"Oh? It's Changbo." When the emperor of Luojiang County was mentioned, he thought of the three children, but he felt that Yang Heshu would not be so unreliable as to drag the three children into trouble, so he smiled and said: "They can write well. This
The account books are also well organized and easy to understand at a glance, so he is a malleable talent."
The emperor only mentioned one sentence and asked instead: "Has the person who wrote the letter to Bai Qi been found?"
Mr. Old Tang shook his head, "I'm afraid it would be difficult to find people from twelve years ago."
The emperor gently knocked on the table and said: "The person who can record so many confidential things must be someone close to Lao Wu and whom he trusts. It will not be difficult to find him as long as he is alive."
The emperor sat up slightly and said: "I want to know what step Lao Wu has reached now, or has... stopped."
Mr. Old Tang lowered his eyes and responded. After a pause, he asked: "Your Majesty, if the prince sees that he is too old to stop, what will you do?"
The emperor looked at Mr. Old Tang displeased.
Mr. Old Tang said without changing his expression: "Your Majesty, I have a list here, which was submitted by the magistrate of Huayang County."
Mr. Old Tang bowed and handed it over.
The emperor took it and unfolded it. He saw that it was full of names, followed by their positions. The first one on the list was Bai Qi.
"Your Majesty, twelve years ago, a total of fifty-eight people were known to have died due to this incident. Twenty-six of them had names, but the rest only had their heads and no names or surnames. We don't know
We don’t know how many people have died because of this incident.” Mr. Old Tang lifted up his robe and knelt down and said, “Your Majesty, please restore these people’s innocence and make the world clear.”
The emperor clenched the list in his hand and said after a while: "Tang Qing entered the Yushitai, but his temper is still the same as when he was in the Ministry of Punishments."
Lord Tang lowered his head.
The emperor spread out the list, carefully folded it and put it among the names, and then said: "I know, Bai Qi, He Ziyun, Zhou Yin and others are all loyal and righteous people. I will never forget them."
The emperor paused and then asked, "Who does Tang Qing think should be appointed as the censor sent to inspect Jiannan?"
Mr. Old Tang thought for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, the person who inspects the inspection does not necessarily need to be the censor. Didn't Mr. Wei go there once when there was a flood in Yizhou four years ago? Why don't we send him this time?
I have seen the disaster-stricken Yizhou, and I know the difference; secondly, seriously speaking, Mr. Wei discovered the Bai Qi case first. He is known to be quick-witted, steady and capable, so it is best for him to go."
When the emperor heard this, he burst into laughter and said happily: "Then do you know who he recommended to me this morning?"
Mr. Old Tang lowered his eyes and said, "I don't know."
"It's you, hahahaha..." The emperor laughed and said: "He said that you have always been careful and are a master at solving crimes. Your son has been the county magistrate of Yizhou City for three years. You go, and you will be able to cooperate inside and outside.
.”
"Your Majesty, it is precisely because I serve as the county magistrate in Huayang that I must avoid suspicion, otherwise the ministers and ministers in the court will follow my example in the future..."
The emperor pondered for a moment, and felt that what he said made sense, so he nodded slightly, "Then let Wei Qing go. Just in time, let him go to Longzhou to find Bai Qi's descendants. There must be someone involved in this case."
A good introduction."
Mr. Old Tang lowered his head in response, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.
The emperor and his ministers did not know that the pile of evidence on the table was attributed to the descendants of Bai Qi, but Wei Zhi knew that he had been communicating with Mrs. Liu.
At that time, when the three children had just found the things and ran to find Magistrate Yang, Mrs. Liu sent someone to send a letter to Wei Zhi, so Wei Zhi knew that the evidence that Zhou Yin had left in the mountains had been found.
Before this pile of evidence was sent to Beijing, he already knew from Mrs. Liu that it contained evidence that King Yizhou was raising troops and privately exploiting iron mines, but Mrs. Liu didn't know the more specific evidence, because Daji also
It was just a sentence that was sent back.
Bai Shan and Man Bao, who were afraid of being punished, pretended not to go home or write letters at all. Mrs. Liu didn't want to reveal too much, so she turned a blind eye and indulged.
Lord Wei was formally appointed in the morning meeting the next day. The emperor also talked to him, "I have sent people to Yizhou, but I want you to go and take a look for me. At this time, the King of Yizhou
Are you still dissatisfied? If so, please send Bai Qi's descendants to the capital, I will be of use."
