Chapter 984: When the Water Is Clear, There Will Be No Fish (2)
Chapter 984: When the water is clear, there will be no fish ()
At noon this day, the family got together to eat. The lunch is very rich, with sixteen dishes and one soup. However, because there are many dishes, the quantity is relatively small.
After eating, Zao Zao touched her chubby belly and said, "I haven't eaten so much for a long time."
Yu Xi glanced at Zao Zao, she didn't look like a girl at all, but she didn't bother to say it now, so she simply turned her head away, so she couldn't see it.
Liu'er couldn't see it, so she walked over and took Zao Zao's hand: "Sister, I have something to tell you!" With the appearance of the eldest sister, people will definitely be talked about when she goes out to socialize in the future.
After the two sisters left, the triplets also left, leaving Qihao alone.
Yun Qing glanced at Qi Hao, and asked: "Ah Hao, what's the matter?" Why did everyone have something to talk to Yu Xi when they came back, but none of the children had anything to talk to him. Thinking about it, Yunqing was a little frustrated.
Qi Hao hesitated.
Yuxi smiled and asked: "Is it because of your uncle?" Seeing that Qihao was still hesitating, Yuxi said: "Last night, Ayou told us that he suspected your uncle of taking bribes."
Yun Qing frowned and said: "Ah Hao, do you also think that your uncle is corrupt and accepting bribes?" If Qi Hao also thinks so, then this matter is serious.
Qihao shook his head and said, "Corruption and bribery are not enough, but it is certain to use power for personal gain." Han Jianming is the governor of Jiangnan, so it would be too stupid to commit corruption.
This is exactly what Yuxi thought. Yun Qing's face was solemn, and he looked at Yu Xi after a while and said, "If uncle really uses his power for personal gain, Yu Xi, how should we deal with it?"
There was no smile on Yuxi's face at this time, but she did not respond to Yunqing's words.
Qi Hao was silent for a while and said: "Father, Mother, if Uncle's condition is not serious, it is enough to dismiss him from his post."
Yu Xi asked with a groan: "Why do you say that?" Even if this matter is serious, it cannot be dealt with on the table.
Qihao lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid that mother will make things difficult."
Yun Qing looked at Yu Xi and said, "Yu Xi, what do you think?" If he was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of the eventuality. If Han Jianming really used his power for personal gain, he would have to deal with it.
Yu Xi looked at Yun Qing and said: "You are going to send troops next year, and before that, you can't transfer your elder brother back to Pick City." What Yu Xi said was transfer, not dismissal.
Yun Qing suddenly understood Yu Xi's concerns: "You are right, even if there is something wrong with the eldest brother, we have to wait until the battle is over."
However, Qihao understood the meaning of Yuxi's words. His uncle has been in Jiangnan for many years, so he must have won over many people. If they change people rashly, it will not be so easy to raise food and grass at that time. If the food and grass can't keep up, there is no need to fight this battle.
Yuxi looked at Yunqing and said: "He Rui, I have something to say to Qihao, can you go back to the room first?" It's not that Yunqing can't listen, but because he is afraid that Qihao will lose face.
Yunqing's biggest advantage is that he has a broad mind and doesn't think too much about it. Like now, if it was another man, he would definitely feel uncomfortable, but Yun Qing didn't.
There were only mother and son left in the room, Yuxi asked: "You said that the situation is light and dismiss your uncle's post, if the circumstances are serious, how do you think to deal with it?"
Without even thinking about it, Qi Hao said, "Deal with the law." Since he dared to do something illegal, he must be prepared to pay the price.
Yuxi shook her head and said: "Even if your uncle uses his power for personal gain, mother can't dispose of him. The most is to transfer him back to Pickaxe City, give him a false position and prevent him from holding real power."
In Qihao's heart, Yuxi has always been a person who does business and never favors others. So after hearing this, Qihao asked in disbelief: "Why?"
After all, at a young age, many things are not considered well. Yuxi said: "Your uncle abandoned his title and family to join his mother. If his mother treated him badly, what would outsiders think? A person who can't even tolerate his own brother,
What do civil and military officials think, and how dare others submit? "The most important thing is that Yuxi is still very grateful to Han Jianming. As long as Han Jianming doesn't betray her, she will protect the prosperity and wealth of the Han family when she is alive. It's just that she won't tell Qihao about these things.
Qi Hao really didn't expect this.
Yuxi remembered xìng and said: "Besides, if your uncle is dealt with, your grandmother will be charged with unfilial piety at that time." this country. It may be fine in a short period of time, but it will definitely leave a huge hidden danger.
Qihao lowered his head in shame: "Mother, it's because I didn't think well."
Yu Xi touched Qi Hao's head, and said softly: "Ah Hao, when the water is clear, there will be no fish. Unless it is a felony of treason or harm to the people, then we will not forgive it. Things like using power for personal gain, even if it is exposed I can't kill your uncle." Punishment is certain, but it can't kill him, and if it is not exposed, it can't be dealt with clearly.
Qihao frowned.
Yuxi did not force Qihao to immediately accept her point of view, some things can only be known how difficult it is to do when they are in it: "This matter has not yet come to fruition, maybe we are just thinking too much." Han Jianming's letter , Yuxi did not show it to Qihao.
Qihao nodded: "Mom, I'm going back."
Yuxi hummed and said: "If you can't figure it out, you can ask your teacher and see how he answers." Since you are a teacher, you should answer students' questions.
Back in the bedroom, Yun Qing saw Yu Xi's tired face: "Thank you for your hard work." Qi Haote has his own opinions, but it's hard to teach them.
Yu Xi recounted her conversation with Qi Hao, and then smiled and said: "No matter how smart Ah Hao is, he is only twelve years old, and he can't think about many things." Simple.
[UU Reading 00ks] Yun Qing smiled and said, "Teach him more."
Yuxi nodded and said: "Now you know why Qihao has to wait until he is twenty-five years old to take power? After two years, I plan to let him work in the Ministry of Rites."
"You can figure it out." After a pause, Yun Qing said, "I will send troops next year, and I want to take Ah Hao with me."
Yuxi smiled and nodded.
Qihao went back to the courtyard and called Brother Hua over: "Did Qiyou tell you that the Han family is richer than the palace?"
Brother Hua shook his head and said: "I didn't say it, but I feel that he has a lot of opinions on the Han family. However, the life of the Han family is indeed a bit extravagant. I have already mentioned this matter to my father." He never hides the truth Hao anything.
Qihao shrank his pupils, then asked with a smile, "What did uncle say?"
Brother Hua said: "My father was very surprised." After a pause, Brother Hua looked at Qi Hao and said, "My son, my father is the son of the Duke's family. The son is too rich."
There was still a smile on Qihao's face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes: "Are you trying to excuse uncle?"
Brother Hua shook his head and said: "No, I'm just telling the truth. After I told him about it, he was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. My son, I am also a part of the Han family. Since I see something wrong, I must say it " After finishing speaking, Brother Hua looked at Qihao and said, "My son, I can't guarantee that my father is fine, but I believe he will not do anything beyond the bottom line."
Thinking of Yu Xi's words, Qi Hao's heart turned, and he asked: "If uncle did something that violated the law, how do you think it should be dealt with?"
Brother Hua was taken aback for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, aren't you embarrassing me? If my father breaks the law, the princess will definitely deal with it."
Qihao asked: "Then how do you think my mother will deal with it?" After finishing speaking, he added another sentence: "Tell the truth."
Brother Hua was silent for a while and said, "My father is not only the princess' elder brother, but also her right-hand man. As long as it is not a felony such as treason, I think my aunt will deal with it lightly."
After Qi Hao hummed, he didn't speak any more.
A month later, Yang Duoming's secret letter came into Yuxi's hands. After reading the letter, Yuxi's brows relaxed: "Send someone to call the son over."
Hearing that it was Yuxi who summoned him, Mr. asked Qihao to hurry over. Because the husband knows that there is nothing important, Yuxi will not call Qihao over at this time.
Seeing Qihao, Yuxi gave him the secret letter: "This is the result of Yang Duoming's investigation, take a look."
According to Yang Duoming's research, the largest restaurant and silk shop in Jinling have the shares of the Han family. In addition, the Han family also has other businesses. In addition, the Han family has two large farms in Jinling. These together have an annual income of 40,000 to 50,000 taels of silver. These silvers are enough for the Han family's expenses.
After reading it, Qi Hao frowned and said: "Mother, those expensive decorations in the Han Mansion are worth thousands of gold." Yang Duoming didn't mention these things in the secret letter.
Yuxi said: "A few years ago, my mother cleaned Jiangnan and copied the houses of those rebels. The things used by the Han family were obtained at that time." Part of it was left by everyone.
After hearing this, Qi Hao asked, "Isn't that enriching one's own pocket?" This is also considered illegal. However, it is much better than using power for personal gain.
Yuxi still said the same sentence: "When the water is clear, there will be no fish. It is unrealistic to let them put everything into the treasury without taking a penny. Even in wars, some of the spoils won will be kept and shared. As long as it is not excessive, this matter will be fine." It should not be pursued."
Qi Hao frowned and said, "But uncle kept too much, right?"
Yu Xi nodded, and said: "It's a bit too much, but back then he abandoned the entire family business in order to go to his mother, and these are the compensations his mother gave him at that time!"
Qihao also knew that Han Jianming had given up a lot when he came to Pick City, even if Yuxi wanted to make up for Han Jianming, he couldn't say it. Qi Hao said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm afraid that Uncle won't understand your painstaking efforts."
Yuxi smiled and said: "Your uncle's greatest wish is to revitalize the Han family and let the Han family enter the center of power. Therefore, he will not put the cart before the horse."
Qi Hao nodded his head and said: "Mother, Uncle has been in the south of the Yangtze River for so many years, once we conquer the capital, we will transfer him back!"
Yu Xi nodded her head and said: "When the capital is taken, you don't need mother to ask, your uncle will take the initiative to return to the capital."
The amount of information in these words is a bit too much, Qihao was very surprised: "Mother, you mean that we will move to the capital after taking the capital?" Seeing Yuxi nodding, Qihao asked: "Mother, does father know about this? "
Yuxi laughed and said: "What do you think?" How could such a big matter not be discussed with Yunqing.
Qi Hao also felt that the question just now was a bit stupid: "So Dad agreed?"
"Not yet, but he didn't object." Yun Qing said at the time that the capital had not yet been taken, and it was too early to say.
Qi Hao said with a smile: "I heard that the capital is more prosperous than Jinling, so I'm looking forward to it."
"Your father means to send troops next year, and let you follow you when the time comes. What's your opinion?" Although Qi Hao knew that Qi Hao wanted to follow without asking, Yu Xi still wanted to ask.
Qi Hao smiled and frowned: "Of course I went. By the way, my eldest sister is in good health. Will you go with us next year?"
Yu Xi didn't give a definite answer: "It depends on the situation!" If her body recovered, she would definitely not stop her.
At this time, Han Jianming, who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River, was very irritable. Han Jianming has been in Jiangnan for so many years and has many eyes and ears. Yang Duo Ming checked him, how could he not know. It's just that Hua Ge'er's words came before him, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
Mr. Zhao comforted him and said, "Master, don't worry, I believe the princess won't trust the fourth young master."
Han Jianming smiled bitterly and said: "If you don't believe Brother Yu, Yuxi won't let Yang Duoming investigate me." After a pause, Han Jianming said: "I was too careless." He didn't expect that Qiyou was so sensitive.
Mr. Zhao said: "Yang Duoming has a good relationship with the master. I believe he will not do something out of nothing." No one is perfect. Han Jianming has done some extraordinary things over the years, but there are no big mistakes. Now is the time for employing people, and he believes that the princess will not severely punish Han Jianming for some small mistakes.
"Creating something out of nothing should not be possible, I'm afraid that the princess will have a lump in her heart." She also lived in Jiangnan for a long time, lost her vigilance, and caused this disturbance if she didn't pay attention.
Mr. Zhao said: "The master gave up so much for the princess that day. The princess should not punish you severely for this matter."
Han Jianming shook his head and said, "Forget it, this time it's a lesson, we have to pay more attention in the future." This kind of affection is always useful, so he is the last thing to use it.
As he was talking, he heard the chief follower outside saying: "Master, General Fang Xingfang is asking to see you."
After the talk, Han Jianming returned to the main courtyard.
Upon hearing Han Jianming's return, Mrs. Xiang quickly stood up from the imperial concubine chair, walked over with a smile on her face and said, "Master, you are back." After pregnancy, instead of becoming ugly, Mrs. Xiang's face became radiant. It is said that pregnant women are ugly, and pregnant women become beautiful. In private, many people said that Xiang's fetus was probably a daughter, and this word also reached Xiang's ears. But because of Han Jianming's words, she felt that it was okay to have a daughter.
Han Jianming didn't speak yet, but just looked around the room. I saw a tiger-pattern leather quilt on the rosewood reclining chair against the wall in the room. The tiger fur is soft and smooth, with clear markings and bright colors.
It's fine if you don't pay attention on weekdays, but now that you look at it, Han Jianming is a little scared. Everything in this house is of great value, and Yuxi's yard is not so richly furnished, no wonder Qiyou feels uncomfortable.
Xiang keenly sensed that something was wrong with Han Jianming: "Master, what's wrong?"
Han Jianming said lightly: "The furnishings in this room are too extravagant, you should replace them all!" Because Mrs. Xiang had never been in Pickaxe City, Han Jianming said one more sentence: "Where the king's residence lives, everyone It's not as luxurious as yours."
Mrs. Xiang is not an idiot, her complexion changed when she heard this, and she hurriedly said: "I will change these things tomorrow." No matter what, the prince and concubine cannot be surpassed. (to be continued)
