Chapter 1046 Father Unkindness

Recommended reading: Red bean candied date cake, lotus root powder osmanthus cake, and Tong’s favorite spiced beans. When it was over, Tong Fang brought a glass of freshly squeezed apple juice.

Tong Shi was not pretentious, took a big sip of apple juice, and then said with a smile: "The princess is really considerate in hospitality." When she was a guest at other houses on weekdays, she always brought tea. But she doesn't like drinking tea, but likes sweet and sour, spicy and so on.

Tong Fang said with a smile: "The princess is very considerate in everything she does. Sister, is Wei Qi's matter resolved?" If it hadn't been resolved, her elder sister's expression would not be so relaxed.

Tong Shi nodded and said: "Well, it's settled, Wei Qi saw her true face clearly. But the child said that Niu Shi had been with him anyway, and let her want to find a good family for her, and give her a dowry of 10,000 taels of silver. "

"There is nothing wrong with finding a good family for the Niu family, but a dowry of 10,000 taels of silver is too much?" For a rich family to marry a daughter, 10,000 taels of dowry is considered too much.

Tong said: "If he can come to his senses, let alone 10,000 taels, I will give him a hundred thousand taels."

Tong Fang frowned and said: "Sister, your idea is wrong. Wei Qi gave away 10,000 taels without taking half a penny home. This money did not fall from the sky, but brother-in-law earned it with his life. "

Tong said with a smile: "Your brother-in-law will definitely have no objection."

Tong Fang said helplessly: "Sister, it's not about the money, it's Wei Qi's wrong idea. He eats and uses yours himself, why should he export 10,000 taels of silver. Sister, you can't pamper him."

If someone else said this, Tong probably wouldn't take it seriously. But Tong Fang's words made her hesitate: "Ah Fang, it's not that serious, is it?"

Tong Fang said: "Sister, not only did the princess not take any money from the mansion two years ago, but handed over her salary. Originally, she wanted to hand over the spoils she had won to the Duke, but the princess told her to keep it. Think of it as saving a dowry for yourself. Don’t you think the lord and the concubine lack the little salary of the princess?"

"I heard that the Great Princess and the others are usually very frugal, and they don't spend a lot of money.

But they didn't know that the princess actually handed in his salary. "The meeting and chatting say yes, but it's just gossip about the host and the west. And the Ming Palace is naturally the number one object of discussion.

Tong Fang said: "That's the princess and the prince. They know that the prince and the princess often worry about money, so they develop a good habit of thrift."

Tong Shi understood that Tong Fang thought that Wei Qi would not understand her and her husband's hard work.

Tong Fang said: "Sister, you have to let Wei Qi know that your brother-in-law earned his family's fortune, and it's not easy for you to manage the housework at home." After a pause, Tong Fang said: "Only let the children know The hardships of adults, they will feel sorry for their parents."

While talking, I heard Banxia calling Wangfei. The two sisters immediately stood up and walked to the door to meet Yuxi.

Glancing at Mrs. Tong, Yuxi smiled and said, "You look pretty good, everything is settled?"

"It's settled, I'll go to the Tang family to discuss the wedding date tomorrow." Knowing that Yuxi is busy, I won't talk about the process, so as not to waste Yuxi's precious time.

Yuxi smiled and said: "It's good to solve it, so that you won't be unable to eat or sleep."

Ban Xia brought a cup of warm water over, put it on the table next to Yu Xi, and stepped aside.

Knowing that Mrs. Tong is planning to get married in the first month of next year, Yu Xi smiled and asked, "Wei Qi is married, do you want Cui Mo to come back?" Marriage will definitely not come back.

Mrs. Tong hesitated for a while, but finally shook her head firmly: "You can't delay his business." Mrs. Chang will definitely help when the time comes, and she will be busy.

"It's good to be married, it's good to settle down. I originally wanted to marry Zao Zao in March next year, but the prince disagreed, saying that it would not be too late to have a wedding in the year after next." His marriage will definitely be postponed for a year.

"This is the prince's love for the princess,

My family, Wei Qi, is also afraid that Xiao Mei will be wronged by rushing too fast, and wants to get married again at the end of next year.

I'm afraid of long nights and dreams, so I still want to set the wedding in the first month of next year. "She was really frightened by Niu's affairs.

Yuxi can understand very well: "When you are a parent, you just have a heart that can't be finished."

The two chatted for a while, Meilan walked in from the outside and said, "Princess, the lord asked you to go back, saying that there is something to discuss."

On the way back, Mrs. Tong leaned on the pillow and said, "Fortunately, I only gave birth to two. If I gave birth to six like a princess, I'm afraid my life will be gone long ago." Well, the triplets are also masters who can cause trouble. Fortunately, the concubine is strong enough to control the siblings, but it would be impossible for her.

"Even though the Great Princess and the Second Highness are very capable, they are all excellent." Although Yun Qing thought Brother Xuan was timid and cowardly, he was actually excellent in the eyes of outsiders.

Tong said with a smile: "This is also the ability of the princess, we can't learn these things."

When Yuxi went to the study, she saw Tang Chengye alone. Seeing Yunqing's sullen face, Yuxi asked: "What's the matter?" Normally, Yunqing's face would not be so ugly.

Tang Chengye bowed and said: "Master Yuan has already investigated Zhang Liguo's case. Zhang Liguo was wronged. The testimony of Qian Shuang and the boy are all false."

Yun Qing said with a dark face: "There is such a thing with a human face and a beast's heart." After speaking, Yun Qing said to Yu Xi: "Fortunately, you think this case is wrong and let Yuan Bilin retry, otherwise this scumbag will get his way. "

Yuxi walked over and picked up the file sent back by Yuan Bilin from the table. After reading it, Yuxi couldn't help sighing: "The forest is so big, there are really all kinds of birds."

As Yu Xi expected, Zhang Liguo was wronged, and it was Zhang's father who wronged him. Zhang's father had a childhood sweetheart, Leng Shi, but Leng's family was in decline and both parents died, so their marriage was not recognized by Zhang's parents. Due to the majesty of his parents, Zhang's father had no choice but to marry Zhang Liguo's mother. One month after getting married, Zhang's father went on a study tour, which lasted for three years. After returning, he found out that he was a father.

Because of having a son, Zhang's father's attitude towards Zhang's mother has improved.

But not long after, Leng's dead husband found him. At that time, Zhang's mother's elder brother was the magistrate of the county. He was afraid of being beaten by his parents and Zhang's mother would find out, so Zhang's father hid Leng in a relatively secluded place. This collection lasted for ten years. Two years ago, two elders of the Zhang family passed away one after another. At the beginning of the year, Zhang's mother's elder brother died in an accident. Zhang's father didn't want to wrong Leng Shi any more, so he tampered with Zhang's mother's tonic. Fearing that Zhang Liguo would retaliate when he knew the cause of Zhang's mother's death, and also believed in Leng's instigation that Zhang Liguo was not his son, he preemptively tried to get rid of Zhang Liguo. Therefore, a paper was reported to the county government.

The county magistrate accepted the case, found out all the witnesses and evidence, and sentenced Zhang Liguo to death.

Yun Qing asked Tang Chengye with a dark face: "This case has been handled by so many people, and no one has seen that there is something wrong with it?" Among these people, Tang Chengye, Minister of Criminal Affairs, was included.

Tang Chengye was also very straightforward, knelt on the ground and said: "The minister missed the investigation, I beg the prince and princess to come down."

This is not something that can be passed after pleading guilty. Yun Qing ordered Tang Chengye's Minister of Punishment to go home and reflect.

Tang Chengye felt very wronged. Although he was responsible for negligence, the punishment was too heavy. But when he looked up and saw that Yuxi didn't say a word, he knew that Yuxi was also angry. Immediately, he didn't dare to say another word, and retreated.

Yun Qing was very annoyed: "There are so many officials who have nothing to do with food." This case is not quite right at first glance.

Yu Xi was not angry, and said: "Father Zhang handed over the certificate to the yamen. If he finds out that the poison was done by Zhang Liguo, and beats Zhang Liguo to death directly in the name of being unfilial, I'm afraid the yamen won't even ask." If that's the case, Zhang Liguo's death would be in vain, and no one would care about it.

Yun Qing knew that what Yu Xi said was true: "But now that scumbag has submitted the case, none of the many officials found anything strange about this case. From this we can see how incompetent the officials below are."

Yu Xi shook her head with a smile and said: "It's not that the officials are incompetent, but that they don't want to get to the bottom of it." Without waiting for Yun Qing to ask again, Yu Xi said: "When I was going to ask Yuan Bilin to retry the case, Tang Chengye said something. He said that the ruler wants the subject, the subject has to die, the father wants the son to die, the son has to die." Because everyone held this idea, they knew that there was a problem with this case, but they all passed it with a blind eye.

"Fart." Yun Qing was so angry that he said rudely: "Although life is given by parents, where do they have the right to deprive children of their lives?" It's even more bullshit.

Yuxi agrees with this very much: "If parents have the power of life and death over their children, what do they need the law for?" Yuxi is going to use Zhang Liguo's case to clean up this unhealthy trend. Filial piety is to be advocated, but it cannot be allowed for those malicious parents to harm their children in the name of filial piety.

Yunqing knew what Yuxi was thinking, and agreed very much.

It's a pity that Tan Tuo didn't agree with Yun Qing and Yu Xi's thoughts: "My lord and my concubine, filial piety is the first thing to do. This is what Confucius said, and you must not violate it."

What Yunqing hates the most is when ministers talk about Confucius and shut up about Mencius. Could it be that these great sages never made mistakes. But Yunqing knew that he couldn't argue with these civil servants, so he didn't answer, but looked at Yuxi.

Yu Xi said expressionlessly: "It's true that filial piety comes first, but Confucius didn't advocate filial piety. Master Tan, what would you do if this happened to you?"

Tan Tuo was stunned for a moment, then came back to his senses and said, "Princess, my father has long passed away."

Yuxi said calmly: "Master Tan, if parents are loving, children should naturally be filial. But if parents are not loving, children can also be unfilial."

When Tan Tuo heard this, he suddenly remembered the article written by Han Jingyan to crusade against the princess, and immediately understood why the princess had such an attitude: "Princess, the old minister is afraid that doing so will cause bad influence. All dynasties have ruled the world with filial piety. , I am worried that the foundation will be shaken if the prince and the concubine do this."

Yun Qing felt that Tan Tuo was scaremongering, but he didn't know how to refute Tan Tuo.

Yu Xi said indifferently: "The fall of every dynasty is because of the emergence of a foolish emperor. I have never heard of any dynasty being destroyed because the emperor was not filial."

In terms of eloquence, Yuxi is no worse than anyone else.

Seeing Yun Qing's expression of approval, Tan Tuo knew that it was useless to say more. Without saying anything, Tan Tuo talked about practical issues: "My lord, my concubine, who do you think will take over as Minister of the Ministry of Punishment?" Tang Chengye must be replaced by someone.

Yun Qing said: "Let Yuan Bilin go on top!"

Tan Tuo disagreed, and said: "Master Yuan is a master in judging cases, but he is not qualified for the post of Secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Tan Tuo said this matter on a matter-of-fact basis, not because he had any personal enmity with Yuan Bilin.

Yu Xi waved her hand and said, "I already have the candidate for Minister of Punishment."

Tan Tuo saw that Yuxi didn't say who it was, and didn't ask, so he would tell him when it was time to tell him. But if you take the initiative to ask, the nature is different. Tan Tuo still has this sense of propriety.

The three of them talked about moving the capital again, and Tan Tuo didn't go out until lunch time. He didn't go back to his own mansion, but had lunch in the palace.

Yuxi and Yunqing went back to the backyard, talking while walking. Yun Qing asked: "Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment, who do you prefer?"

"My elder brother." When the capital is moved, Han Jianming will definitely be transferred back to Beijing, just to give him the vacancy of Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishment. As for Tang Chengye, Yuxi decided to demote him to be the left servant of the Ministry of Punishment. If he performs well, release him.

Yun Qing hummed and said, "Brother is proficient in the law, so it's a perfect fit for him to be Minister of the Ministry of Punishment." Before going to Jiangnan, Han Jianming was in charge of this area.

Tang Chengye has abilities, but he is too rigid and Yuxi can't use them smoothly. Even if Zhang Liguo had nothing to do with him, she would transfer Tang Chengye out of this position. And Han Jianming has always been able to think what she thinks, and the siblings also have a tacit understanding. When Han Jianming comes back, she can save a lot of trouble.

"I don't have any objection to letting my uncle be qualified for the post of Secretary of the Ministry of Justice, but you can no longer meddle in the affairs of the Han family." Han Jianming's ability to handle affairs is very strong, which Yun Qing agrees with. But she couldn't see how a woman looked.

When it came to this matter, Yuxi was also speechless: "Even if you marry a girl from a eunuch's family, it is better than Xiang's." Unfortunately, Han Jianming did not adopt her suggestion.

Yun Qing really didn't know about this: "You have seen that Mrs. Xiang is not a proper person?"

"I'm not a god, so how can I know foretelling. I was worried at the time that because of Xiang's background, I was afraid that I would not be able to adapt to being the head of the house after marrying into the Han family." To be the housewife of the Han family, you must serve your mother-in-law and teach your stepchildren , and have to socialize and communicate with others. Xiang's family background is low, and he must have never come into contact with these things before, so it is difficult to deal with these things in a short time. It would be fine if someone taught her, but her mother is in charge, so she can only rely on Xiang to figure it out on her own. But Han Jianming wrote back saying that Mrs. Xiang is a smart person, and these things will definitely be learned quickly, so Yuxi didn't say any more.

Yun Qing said: "Facts have proved that your worries are right." As the head of the house, Mrs. Xiang is not competent for her job.

Yu Xi shook her head and said, "Master Zhong is much stronger than Mr. Xiang, regardless of his background or ability. I am afraid that the fight between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be inevitable." Mr. Xiang surpassed his father to manage the family affairs, so it can be seen that he is very strong. How could such a person be willing to hand over the gift to his daughter-in-law.

Yun Qing hurriedly said: "Don't worry about the housework of the Han family. If you manage too much, it will be disgusting.")! !
