Quick Transmigration: A money-loving man meets a boy who gives away money!
Chapter 328: Greedy and Corrupt Prime Minister vs. Tyrannical Emperor (39)
As summer ends and autumn arrives, yellow leaves dye Shengjing red.
Amid the rustling sound of swaying leaves, Yu Ci returned riding a white horse.
The disputes and unrest in various parts of the Huang Dynasty actually originated from a party called the Restoration of Qian. After all, the Qian Dynasty had existed longer and was more popular. In addition, the people had just changed the dynasty and its name, so they were unable to fully react in just a few years.
Therefore, it is easy to be instigated.
The leader of the rebellion was Li Ding'an, a marginal figure of the Li Dynasty who was separated from him by many generations.
People with the surname Li, for example, are descendants of dukes and kings. There are many of them hidden in the Phoenix Dynasty. The upper class have children, with at least one wife and two concubines, and their descendants are endless.
But as their bloodline becomes weaker, they will gradually fall into lower social classes, and it requires careful consideration where their money comes from.
Yu Ci spent more than two to three months investigating and collecting evidence, during which time he intercepted dozens of letters.
Surprisingly, many of them pointed to Qing Kingdom.
It's really a dirty nest of cockroaches and rats.
The letter even contained a promise to repay Qing State with its territory for its help, which was a typical case of driving a tiger to devour a wolf and hoping to reap the benefits while sitting back and doing nothing.
It seems that the Qing Kingdom has been eyeing us covetously for a long time.
It’s a pity that we have to wait and see how the harvest goes this year and until people’s hearts gradually stabilize before we can make plans.
After Yu Ci returned to Shengjing, he locked himself in the house and studied some magic weapons to defeat the enemy on the battlefield, making sure to achieve the best result at the lowest cost.
She deliberately avoided Li Xuange, and even the person involved noticed it.
That night, the night spy in black who had not appeared for half a year sneaked into the prime minister's residence again.
Yu Ci was drawing a picture by lamplight at night. She subconsciously used her hairpin to push away the hand of the person who was about to pat her shoulder, and took out the dagger from her waist without unsheathing it.
The two men moved extremely lightly and quickly, from fighting inside the house to breaking out through the window and fighting in the empty yard.
The two men of equal strength faced each other, and when they met each other's palms, a shock wave of internal force almost destroyed the pavilion, and all the tiles of the house that were on the path of the internal force were shattered.
The two men retreated repeatedly, trampling countless broken bricks and stones on the ground.
Yu Ci took a step back. After all, her foundation was not as good as Li Xuange's, and she had spent more time outside this year and relatively less time practicing in the court.
Give her another half year and she will catch up.
"Your Majesty is in a good mood and does not sit in the Emperor's Hall, but raids the minister's room at night." Yu Ci waved his sleeves and turned his hands behind his back to hide his trembling palms, his blood boiling.
Li Xuange looked anxious, stepped forward and grabbed Yu Ci's wrist, and said with a hint of heartache: "Are you okay?"
Yu Ci didn't want the other party to see her miserable appearance, so she hid her hands tightly. The more she did that, the more panicked Li Xuange became. She had just hit him with 80% of her strength, and it would be bad if she hurt little Yu Xiang.
"It's okay..." Yu Ci gritted her teeth, turned around and walked into the house.
"What is your majesty doing?" she asked knowingly.
Ever since I left Shengjing, this person has become more and more clingy. Every word in their letters reveals that I miss you. Even if Yu Ci is a piece of rotten wood, he has been dug up.
She didn't understand whether it was a means to win her over or the other party was really moved. It was just that her feelings for Li Xuan Ge made her a little scared.
She was afraid that she would have to stay with the other person forever, as love alone could not sustain such a life.
Moreover, she was not sure about his feelings for her. It was just that they shared the same political views and had a tacit understanding.
She also didn't like those South Sea pearls and emeralds that much...
Well, not particularly fond of it...
"I wanted to come and see you..." Li Xuange finally held Yu Ci's wrist and used his deep internal strength to dispel the slight internal injury she had just suffered.
When she said this, her eyelids were slightly lowered, as if she was hiding her emotions.
"Your Majesty, have you finished reading this? I'm fine. Should I go back to work?" Yu Ci took back her wrist and twisted it unnaturally. When she found that it was indeed not shaking, she said awkwardly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
"I am not a wooden puppet, how can I keep moving forever? Since you are free today, would you please accompany me, Minister Yu?" She didn't know whether Yu Ci had poisoned her. Why did he become addicted after he started thinking about her and couldn't stop?
Her Majesty, who had everything she wanted, felt helpless for the first time. She didn't know how to treat the girl she wanted to hold in her arms. She always had many concerns.
Yu Ci was looked at with a hint of expectation in her beautiful eyes, and finally she softened her heart and asked her to wait while she prepared two dishes.
She calculated the time and found that the middle of tomorrow would be her holiday.
No wonder His Majesty had time to look for her.
I simply made two braised dishes and a cold dish, and then I couldn't find the wine jug. I remembered that I had cleared out everything in the yard when I was dealing with things in the mansion last time, and now it was too troublesome to go somewhere else to get it.
Besides, these things were handled by the servants in the villa, and she didn't know where they were kept. She was not so heartless as to wake others up in the middle of the night.
He simply raised his hand and brought a jar of wine to the table.
There were no wine jugs and no cups, so the wine was served in large bowls.
When they were outside, their lives were not very refined, and they mostly ate and drank from large bowls. Yu Ci had long been accustomed to it. Seeing that His Majesty was a little dazed, she raised her hand and touched him.
"Drink?" Why hesitate?
Upon hearing this, Li Xuange picked up the bowl and drank it lightly. Drinking from a large bowl does feel a little different. It doesn't have that unsatisfactory feeling of not having a full sip.
She gulped down half a bowl of rice, then picked up a piece of braised meat and ate and drank in silence without saying a word.
Yu Ci was afraid of embarrassment, so she would occasionally bring up the topic of Sanliang and chat about her days away, although all that had been clearly stated in their correspondence.
The letters they exchanged over the past year were so numerous that even a box could not contain them all.
Yu Ci initially disliked her for talking too much nonsense, but later she started to talk too much nonsense herself. Thinking that His Majesty might not have traveled so many miles, she put dried licorice flowers in the letter and sent it back.
There are even pine cones picked up from the roadside, windmills given by children in the city, and some puppets.
Well, he is my boss after all, so I should coax him more...
She deceived herself in this way, and coaxed herself into it.
Li Xuange didn't say much. She has always been a talkative person. She looked at Yu Ci and drank bowl after bowl of wine.
It was like a hot and humid summer nightmare that finally passed, and the cool autumn breeze blew in, taking away the depression hidden in the lotus flowers.
Producing lotus pods.
Thoughts are hidden like lotus seeds, with a crisp and tender seed and a bitter core.
Should she be braver?
The moon reflected in the pool could not give her an answer. Li Xuange looked away with a dazed look, looked into the pool, picked up a peanut in her hand and threw it into the pond.
The waves spoiled the bright and clear moon.
It turns out that it is nothing but an illusion.
Li Xuange closed his eyes and lowered his head in depression. The Minister of Rites could still stay, but the Vice Minister of Rites could not...
She wants to put... in that position...
That was the person brought out by Yu Ci.
I don't know how the autumn tax will be paid, but the Imperial Astronomical Observatory says the sun is shining brightly this year, which is auspicious...
Xiao Yuxiang...
"I miss you so much." The countless jumping messages in Li Xuange's mind were like musical notes, stewing in a mess. In the end, he could only mutter a vague sentence.
Yu Ci approached and patted her shoulder. She just said that she didn't drink, but this person drank happily.
"Your Majesty, it's getting darker and the dew is heavier. You should go back."
"Your Majesty?!" Yu Ci leaned back and was held down by the other party, leaning against the pavilion pillar. The warm breath rushed around her neck.
Li Xuange was half awake and half drunk, she just couldn't help but want to lean over.
This was the first time they hugged each other and were so close to each other after knowing each other for so long...
