Xie Rongzhao opened his mouth wide, but after a moment he returned to his ladylike state, and said with some confusion: "She likes brother Yanqing, what does it have to do with me?"
Wang Yinuo's smile was a bit stiff: "How silly of me! We all know that my brother has no such intention for you, but people outside don't know."
Xie Rongzhao stared at her blankly for a while before reacting.
"You mean, Xie Chunning treats me as a love rival?"
Seeing that she finally figured it out, Wang Yinuo nodded with some sympathy, "Poor Zhaozhao, it's because I didn't have a good dinner at home and there were too many rotten peach blossoms, which caused you trouble."
Xie Rongzhao blinked and shook his head again and again and said: "That's not right! Who in the capital doesn't know that I already have a fiancé, so why is she so jealous? What kind of thing is this! I'm taking the blame too unfairly. ?”
It's an injustice!
Anyone with real eyes can see that Xie Rongzhao and Wang Yanqing have no such meaning at all.
But some people just couldn't bear to see Xie Rongzhao's life being too peaceful, and always wanted to cause some trouble.
Wang Yinuo actually thought very simply.
At Xie Rongzhao's age, she has not yet figured it out. Although she has always said that she has a fiancé, this girl knows nothing about men and women.
However, the friendship between them is childhood sweethearts, which is something that ordinary people cannot compare to.
"Okay, it's my Yan Qing who can't help you, so just treat it as a good deed every day and spare my Yan Qing this time."
Xie Rongzhao said angrily: "No! Brother Yan Qing brought bad luck on his own, why did he come to harm me? Huh, he has to come to apologize to me in person for this matter. Also, I won't be easy to coax this time, don't Thinking that making some nonsense will make me forgive him."
Wang Yinuo chuckled, poked her forehead with his index finger and said, "You damn girl, okay, I'm afraid my brother doesn't know it himself, so don't be as knowledgeable as him."
My brother, I know.
As for Wang Yanqing's temperament, he is also ignorant.
At the moment, all my thoughts are on my studies, so how can I have time to think about beauties?
Speaking of which, Wang Yanqing was unlucky to have been favored by such a ruthless person.
The two chatted for a few more words, and Xie Rongzhao suddenly asked: "What did you just say about Xie Chunning? Is she very vicious?"
Wang Yinuo didn't know what to say, so she had to tell some things she knew, but it opened Xie Rongzhao's eyes.
"Tsk, tsk, you are indeed cruel! Sister, when you go back, you should tell Brother Yan Qing that you must not fall in love with such a girl, no matter how beautiful she is, she is a real troublemaker!"
Xie Chunning's reputation is not very good. Of course, people who are not in this circle hear less about him.
For example, Xie Xiuwen's family had little contact with the Xie Mansion, and they didn't have much contact with each other, so they knew relatively little information.
Wang Yinuo is older, and like Zhao Ying, he had played well with several girls from the Xie Mansion, so he naturally knows more.
This Xie Chunning usually only abused the servants in the mansion, but he also bullied other officials' ladies twice.
Although he apologized in the end, it was Xie Chunning who took advantage.
She had no choice but to bully low-ranking officials. No matter how unconvinced she was, she couldn't afford to offend Xie Huaiyi, so she had to endure it.
As the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, Xie Xiuwen has taken on an errand and will have to leave Beijing for a few months.
It stands to reason that Xie Xiuwen is now Shangshu Zuocheng, but for any errands that need to be run out of the capital, he can usually not be found.
But this time it's different.
The Holy Emperor was furious in the court, and imprisoned three ministers in one breath. He also issued two edicts in a row, directly ordering that the guilty ministers who had made serious mistakes should be detained pending trial.
What could cause Emperor Jingwen to be so angry was naturally not a trivial matter.
And this time, the royal family was also involved.
Prince Ping, the younger brother of Emperor Jingwen, although he is in the capital now, his fiefdom is in Yunzhou Prefecture, which happens to be close to Xie Xiuwen's hometown. If you take a carriage between the two prefectures, you can get there in a day and a night.
Someone discovered that an iron mine was discovered in Yunzhou Prefecture and had been mined secretly for several years. It was never reported to the court until some people complained to the government, saying that their men and sons had been drafted into labor force. However, it was not reported to the government for half a year. When I returned home, I saw no one alive and no body after death, and that was when the trouble started.
If only one woman filed a complaint, naturally not many people would pay attention.
Unfortunately, she only made a start, but in just three days, women from dozens of families came to complain and look for someone.
This incident was seen by local scholars, who naturally wrote an article enthusiastically, and then spread it everywhere. Unexpectedly, Xu Yuanqing saw it, and then ordered someone to secretly send it to the capital overnight.
In this way, Emperor Jingwen knew about it.
When Emperor Jingwen sent people to secretly investigate, he also gave an explicit order to the Yunzhou governor, asking them to find out where these people lived and died.
Unexpectedly, the results found by the governor of Yunzhou were completely different from the results obtained by the secret investigation sent by the Holy Emperor.
This caused the Holy Emperor to be furious.
At the same time, King Ping was ordered by the court to return to his mansion and conduct self-examination.
Prince Ping returned to his mansion, but his mansion was surrounded by people.
If it's a jade mine or a salt mine, that's it.
That's an iron mine!
No matter how kind Emperor Jingwen was, he had to prepare for the worst.
The matter was so big, and Prince Ping was involved, Emperor Jingwen naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it.
However, the people sent to investigate secretly before were only able to touch some edges. The specific matters inside had to be handled by the court officials.
Some things can be done in secret, because they don't want to get involved; but some things must be done openly, lest anyone think that he, as an emperor, cannot tolerate brotherhood.
Who to send naturally became a headache for Emperor Jingwen.
It stands to reason that people from Dali Temple or the Ministry of Punishment should be sent there, but the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment has a roundabout relationship with Prince Ping's Mansion, and the Minister of Dali Temple has nothing to do with Prince Ping's Mansion. However, the two cases currently being investigated in the capital have not been investigated. To close the case, it is inappropriate for the Dali Temple Minister to be sent abroad, but it is okay for the Dali Temple Shaoqing.
But this young minister from Dali Temple is new here and has no experience.
Emperor Jingwen didn't trust such a big case, so he left it to an idiot to handle it.
Emperor Jingwen summoned all the cabinet ministers to the imperial study. After everyone recommended him, Xie Xiuwen won the bid.
When Xie Xiuwen received the order, he didn't think it was anything. After all, he was running errands for the emperor. If he did it well this time, he would be able to silence those people if he was promoted in the future, and he happened to be on the way, so he could go back to visit his teacher.
Emperor Jingwen waved his hand, and the chief steward presented a gold medal.
"Thank you Aiqing, with this gold medal, if I come in person, the governor's offices in Yunzhou and neighboring states can be dispatched by you. Remember, if you find something wrong, no matter whether it is civil servants or military officers, you can kill it first and then report it!"
