After traveling through the book and becoming the fake daughter's biological sister
Chapter 98 Calculation
The Danyang County Government Office was brightly lit at this time and no one could sleep.
King Wei was not here, but went to the post station.
The county magistrate Zhu Liang was already in his fifties, thin, and in his official uniform, he looked very sober. He was a Jinshi in the Wuchen year of the 18th year of Yanhe, when the prosperous times were at their peak. Zhu Liang had a bit of the calmness of the prosperous times and the pride of a scholar.
The county government had prepared a banquet, but Prince Wei did not want to keep him, and Zhu Liang did not plan to entertain anyone. There was a large group of people here, and he could not chase them away.
Some of these celebrities may not be as high-ranking as county magistrates, but they are very confident.
Zhu Liang was still a county magistrate at his age, with little future and background. He had no ill will towards Prince Wei, and no one asked him to do anything to him. Zhu Liang just had to wait patiently for Prince Wei to leave.
Some people don't think so, and they come from all kinds of backgrounds.
A man in his forties, wearing a gorgeous blue silk robe, with a rat-like face, said seriously: "What exactly does the Prince of Wei want to do? Even if he likes Bao Chongguo, he can just tell the emperor. Isn't it robbery to rob her like this?"
A man in his thirties, wearing a white robe and holding a folding fan, looked like a wealthy and idle man. He smiled calmly and said, "Why don't you tell the King of Wei and see if he dares to chop you down?"
The rat-like man was furious!
The rich and idle people drank happily. Although this table was not full of delicacies from land and sea, it was carefully prepared and tasted good.
Zhu Liang buried his head in the food. He prepared it. The government office couldn't provide much good delicacies from the mountains and the sea. This was his intention. If the King of Wei didn't eat it, he would eat it himself to avoid waste. Some people don't like it, and it would be a waste to give it to them.
An old man, probably in his sixties, wearing a tall turban and a crane cloak, looked like a hermit.
Zhu Liang knew what kind of relationship he, Cai Xie, whose courtesy name was Deyuan and nickname was Dongyan Lao Ren, had with the Liu family. Therefore, the Cai family was the most difficult bone to chew in Danyang County. Zhu Liang had been in Danyang County for many years, but he never chewed it, fearing that his teeth would break. Now, Cai Xie wanted to take action against the King of Wei. Even if there were people here who were not in the same group, no one dared to stop him, because the Cai family was powerful.
The power of the Cai family is not shown in public, but others are even less aware of it in secret. The old man can easily kill people. The old man is usually low-key, but in fact he is like a tiger and a venomous snake. Those who know the situation are scared when they think about it, and some people are worried about King Wei.
The old man was a great man with a good complexion. He said gently, "The people are so grateful. It's a rare opportunity. Let them meet the King of Wei tomorrow. The King of Wei is a favored son of heaven. I believe he is willing to comfort the people on behalf of his grandfather and father. In those days, the King of Shizong changed his clothes and went out to farm with the farmers. Coincidentally, it is also the spring plowing season now."
Another old man said slowly: "Emperor Shizong changed his clothes and went incognito, and then the He family lost their heads in exchange for the well-being of the people."
The He family was a tyrant in the neighborhood, much more high-profile than the current Cai family. They dared to do anything even when the emperor was on tour. This was also related to the fact that Emperor Shizong ascended the throne at a young age and there were many dissidents. Emperor Shizong not only killed the He family, but also many officials from the neighborhood and the capital. The happiness of the common people was bought with blood, but they were not afraid.
This had a direct impact, that is, until now, the powerful people dare not be too high-profile. Sejong's sword brought nearly half a century of peace.
Therefore, the rich and idle people looked at Old Man Cai with curiosity. How could he dare to mention this matter that even the powerful people in Danyang County were not happy about?
The rich and idle man tapped his palm with his fan. Could it be that Old Man Cai was so confident that he wanted to break this curse? It was a good idea.
No one wanted to follow suit. No one tried to stop them. Since the Cai family wanted to do it, they were probably ready.
Zhu Liang said nothing. Old Cai had finally followed the path of the He family. The He family wanted to make trouble for the emperor, and the Cai family wanted to make trouble for the prince of Wei. As for being dragged into the water, Zhu Liang was not that worried.
Zhu Liang was thinking about what he could do to prove that he was not in the same group as the Cai family. Although it was not easy for him to work in Danyang County, he did have some achievements. The people of Danyang County were simple and honest, and they were probably quite brave.
※※※
In the capital, there is the Purple Palace.
The emperor was not asleep at this moment. He saw a group of people hurriedly handing him news, eager to impeach Prince Wei.
The emperor was not in a hurry at all. As long as Yuan Miao was fine, it was nothing.
As for tying up Bao Chongguo, the emperor was thinking carefully, what was Yuan Miao's meaning in doing so?
Bao Chongguo was a Jinshi in the Jiaxu year of the 24th year of Yanhe. His appointment to official posts was basically decided by the emperor. The emperor was very impressed with him because there were always people praising him. It was very interesting. Look, someone is praising him again this time.
Is being an emperor stupid? Why would so many people praise him for no reason? Bao Chongguo didn't have that kind of background, at least not on the surface. As a foreign official, Bao Chongguo was at most a prefect, and was nothing in the court. Was there so much to praise about him? The emperor really didn't see it.
However, the emperor saw the joke. Before, they praised Bao Chongguo naturally and without leaving any trace. Now, after Yuan Miao's tying, some people lost their composure and their fox tail was exposed.
The emperor has an idea, but he doesn't know everything. He is too busy to handle all the affairs of the world. But now just look carefully. He is at the top, like the sun, shining the most. The emperor estimated that Bao Chongguo was a very important chess piece for them. But the emperor hated forming cliques for personal gain the most!
The Liu family cannot be touched! The emperor is already very angry, can he still allow these people to deal with Yuan Miao?
According to their wishes, they wished that Yuan Miao could continue to sleep in the cradle and drink milk, so as not to affect their good things.
Dream on! The emperor slammed the table in anger!
Several eunuchs were startled and those who wanted to speak held back their words.
The emperor summoned Li Zhao and issued an order: "Send two hundred brave guards to escort Prince Wei to his fiefdom. They will come back after Prince Wei is settled."
Li Zhao received the order! He thought that others only saw Bao Chongguo being tied up, and the emperor was worried about the safety of Prince Wei. As long as this gesture was made, it would deter the scoundrels. If there were anyone who wanted to take action, they would be killed!
Zhang Zhi stood aside, cautious and silent.
A young eunuch reported back: "The old lady fainted from anger again."
The emperor said angrily, "The older you get, the more irritable you become! Don't let outside affairs enter the palace casually in the future!"
The emperor said so and did so. Some people especially like to play tricks on the empress dowager. He checked the harem again!
The harem was in an uproar over Prince Wei's affairs, and most people were awake.
The emperor sent someone to investigate, and there was chaos in the harem, so much so that they could not even sleep.
Inside the Purple Palace, the emperor was still busy. A group of concubines came over to make a scene. The queen also came over to make a scene.
A eunuch reported back: "The Empress Defei prepared a midnight snack for Your Majesty."
The emperor issued an order: "Let Wang kneel outside until dawn tomorrow."
Why didn't he stay in his own palace at this time, but came to the Purple Palace to show off his ability? Or did he want to do something?
The emperor was too familiar with these tricks to be interesting. He could tolerate them when he was in a good mood, but he was not in that mood now.
