Chapter 908 Very well behaved
"He said that about you, I'm going to destroy his nine clans!" Xiao Xun raised his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes, which made people shudder.
Lu Yan patted him on the shoulder, "Then you will become a fool."
"I have never thought of being a Mingjun. I know that he is the empress dowager. Everyone knows my identity. I don't want to do those hypocritical things that look good on the surface. As long as the people in the world are healthy , I'm afraid that no one will say good to me in the future!"
"I'm talking nonsense again! Even people like the former emperor are afraid of verbal criticism, afraid of writing bad things in the history books in the future, but you don't care. Are you worse than the first emperor?"
Lu Yan shook his head and walked in, "Come in and have a drink, stand here and talk, what does it look like, you are not afraid that Duan Xian will be worried if he finds out."
Xiao Xun followed behind him, Lu Yan poured tea with his own hands, Xiao Xun stepped aside, clasped his wrist, stared into his eyes, "Brother, tell me, did people often say that about you before? "
Lu Yan saw his red eye circles and a sore nose, but a natural smile appeared on his face, as gorgeous and colorful as hibiscus flowers blooming in July.
"Why should you care about these things? Besides, how often do you do it? After all, I am also the envoy of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, and I was highly valued by the late emperor. How can there be so many people who are not afraid of death?"
"Brother!"
"Okay, it's getting late, and I'm hungry. I'll follow you back and ask for a glass of wine."
In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Xie Zhiwei found out what happened in the Dongpei Hall, she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, it was still in front of Xiao Xun, Zhang Quanjin was so arrogant, dare to say that about big brother.
I don’t know how many people call him that behind his back!
Even so, she still asked Du Yuan to take a pill and asked her to give it to Wang Shipu. During the diagnosis and treatment, she would feed it to Zhang Quanjin, not daring to let him die in the palace.
"Where's the emperor and Mr. Lu? Where are you now? When you find them, they say that dinner is going to be served here." Xie Zhiwei supported his waist and ordered the table to be placed in the open room, "Go get the chilled plum wine come over."
Xiao Xun and Lu Yan walked in while discussing the floods in Zhejiang. On the table, a pot of cold plum wine exuded a faint fragrance. Lu Yan smiled and said, "I said it must be a blessing." .”
Xiao Xun helped Xie Zhiwei's shoulder, and asked, "Today, is he good, and did he bother you?"
Lu Yan's eyes lightly slid over Xie Zhiwei's belly, his brows and eyes were as gentle as spring water, and then fell on Xiao Xun's face.
Xie Zhi smiled and said, "It's very good, so what if it's not good? Could it be that you can teach him a lesson?"
Xiao Xun said, "When he comes out, I will teach him a lesson!"
Xie Zhiwei gave him an angry look, only thinking that what he said was nonsense, and said, "Brother, sit down, and the food will be passed on."
Xie Zhiwei's appetite is very good, she put down the bowl after eating, Lu Yan and Xiao Xun were still drinking, Lu Yan said, "I heard that you need to walk more, you ask Du Yuan and Du Yun to help you walk, just now After dinner, walk slowly!"
Xie Zhiwei nodded, "Then drink slowly!"
She helped Du Yuan's hand out of the apse, turned left, walked along the alley for a while, and entered the small garden in front of the Compassionate Ning Palace.
"Do you know what Miss Cao said to Master Lu?" Xie Zhiwei asked Du Yuan.
Du Yuan thought of the son and said, if the empress asks, don't hide a single word, so she said what Cao Yunhua said, Xie Zhiwei said, "Did Master Lu say anything? What was his expression at that time?"
Du Yuan remembered the sad expression of the young master at that time, and said, "Young master seems to be very sad. Empress, did the servant do something wrong?"
"No, you are not wrong, Miss Cao is not wrong, we are all right, it is fate!" Xie Zhiwei said with sadness in his voice.
Xie Zhiwei walked for half an hour, when he returned, Lu Yan and Xiao Xun were still drinking, both of them were slightly drunk, Xie Zhiwei hurried up to get the jug, "Why are you still drunk?"
Xiao Xun wanted to grab it, Xie Zhiwei handed the jug to Du Yuan, "Take it! Call the rice ball in, so that you can help Mr. Lu back. Go and make two bowls of strong hangover soup."
Xiao Xun was a little confused, "Mei Mei, my eldest brother and I are not drunk, how can this little wine make us drunk?"
Lu Yan saw Xie Zhiwei's brows upside down, and he couldn't help laughing, "Ah Xun, I want to drink tomorrow, and I'll stop here for today. I'll go back and look at the memorials from Zhejiang, which flooded two counties. There are silver coins in the household department, but there are always more days than silver coins."
"Flooded two counties? How could that happen?" Xie Zhiwei was also taken aback.
"There must be someone playing tricks. This matter needs to be investigated carefully. Who is the chief envoy of Zhejiang? Who is the prefect of Suzhou, and these two counties." The more Xiao Xun said, the more angry he became.
Xie Zhiwei hurriedly said, "Okay, since you have something to do, you still drink so much. If you are worried, go to the South Study Room with your big brother to discuss it. After the matter is settled, you can take a good rest."
Xiao Xun was worried about Xie Zhiwei at first, but the flood was extraordinary, so he went with Lu Yan. Just in time, Xie Tiao entered the palace and was waiting in the cabinet. Xiao Xun passed Xie Tiao over.
"The Japanese plague in the south has always been serious, just like scabies on people. Although it is fatal, it is also a particularly bad thing. These years, the first emperor has been unconscious. The emperor and Mr. Lu used troops in the western border and the north, and the weaving tribute was limited. Actually, I heard that there is still a secret account over there, which should be taken from the common people, and there is not a cent missing."
When Xie Tiao said this, he glanced at Xiao Xun and Lu Yan each, "Governor Gao Changshui of Zhejiang does business with Japanese people and some Westerners. Every year, more than 200,000 pieces of silk and satin go out of Zhejiang, not to mention a piece of silk and satin. More, ten taels of silver, more than two million taels of silver a year."
Everyone knows that the actual silk sold is definitely more than ten taels of silver.
"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. Everything must be done step by step. Anyway, in the past few years, there has been no chaos in Zhejiang, and all the taxes that should be paid have been paid. Gao Changshui was a Jinshi in the eighteenth year of Jianyuan. I have been in Zhejiang for five or six years, and it is time to change positions.”
Lu Yan kept looking at Xiao Xun, saw that he gradually loosened his expression following his words, and breathed a sigh of relief, "This is to protect him, and also to protect the people in Zhejiang. After all, you can't move casually there."
Xiao Xun smiled, "Brother, you don't have to worry about me. Zhejiang could not be chaotic in the past, but in the future, it is not up to you and me to decide whether it will be chaotic or not. Some people must be waiting here. But don't worry, Aimin I still have the heart. Zhejiang is a big game of chess, let's play slowly!"
Xie Tiao also heaved a sigh of relief, and nodded, "What I mean, let the people in Zhejiang say what's going on in Zhejiang, and it's time for Gaochangshui to enter the capital."
