The little girl Huahua became a blockbuster in the mansion, and Wen Jiuxiao also made a thunderbolt in the court hall.
"His Royal Highness, the minister was attacked by water bandits on the way back to Beijing. According to the confession given by the minister, there are people in Beijing who do not want the minister to return to Beijing, but the minister has no evidence..."
All the ministers in the hall are dumbfounded. Is the new Hubu Shangshu so stubborn on the first day of court? Who would bring it up on the table when encountering such a thing? He also directly pointed out that some people in Beijing did not want him to return to Beijing... As expected of Mr. Xiaowen, he did not take the usual path!
"...I may not be smart enough to be flexible, but my loyalty is unquestionable. Since I entered the court at the age of fifteen, I have devoted myself to serving the court and redressing the people's grievances. I will not corrupt, accept bribes, or form cliques." , not for personal gain. It may have offended the interests of some people, I know that from the time I entered Dali Temple to today when I stand in the position of Minister of the Household Department, many people want to get rid of the minister and make it quick."
Wen Jiuxiao's voice was sonorous and forceful, "I didn't mean to ask His Highness to uphold justice for me when I said these words. I just wanted to say that the officialdom is dangerous. If you only target me, if you lose, then your skills are inferior to others. But, When the water bandits attacked Chen, there were still Chen's wife and children on board. How innocent were Chen's family members? So Chen was angry, and Chen suppressed the gang of water bandits overnight. To my surprise, there were seven or eight hundred bandits. The stolen property was equivalent to 300,000 taels of silver. The bandits handed it over to the local government, and the minister brought the property into the capital with the boat, and it has been filled into the treasury. Here is the account book, His Royal Highness, please have a look."
He held the account book in his hand and raised it above his head respectfully.
Without the prince's orders, the **** standing aside stepped down from the high platform.
The hall was full of silence, and the ministers looked at Wen Jiuxiao, not in a daze, but dumbfounded, and their hearts collapsed.
Other officials were attacked, even if they were not dead, they would be embarrassed. Master Xiaowen was attacked, not only did nothing happen, but in a fit of rage, he also suppressed a bandit by the way, and took the man's nest away.
The national treasury is empty, and the position of Hubu Shangshu is actually a hot potato. Since the prince named Wen Jiuxiao, many ministers in Beijing gloated and waited to see his jokes.
Who would have thought that Mr. Xiaowen brought three hundred thousand taels of silver to Beijing? Or someone else took the initiative to send them off, so I asked if the person behind the plot to murder Mr. Xiaowen was not angry?
Who doesn't like such a capable courtier? After today, Mr. Xiaowen will be able to sit securely in the seat of Minister of the Household Department.
Here comes, the long-lost familiar feeling of crushing suddenly surfaced in my heart, and the mood of the ministers was extremely complicated.
"Okay, good!" His Royal Highness said two good words in succession, and cast an approving look at Wen Jiuxiao, "Lord Xiaowen is really capable, this is the blessing of the imperial court and the common people."
Wen Jiuxiao has been Mr. Xiaowen since eight years ago, and he is still Mr. Xiaowen now, a senior official in his early thirties, how young and promising! Said that there is nothing wrong with Xiaowen adults.
80% will have to wait until he enters the cabinet to get rid of the word "little". That's different. Maybe he will be "Old Xiaowenge" by then, haha!
The prince felt that he was too discerning, and Wen Aiqing gave him too much face. He was born in the army, and he didn't like the literati's gossip and fights, but he liked Wen Jiuxiao, a courtier who was able to work hard.
When the ministers came back to their senses, someone questioned, "Lord Xiaowen, I don't understand something. There were seven or eight hundred water bandits, how did you capture them? As far as I know, there are only a few people in the lord Xiaowen's party. ten people."
"You!" The man's face changed slightly, "The lower official is just curious, why should Mr. Xiaowen be so aggressive?"
"Aggressive? This officer thinks it's Mr. Li who is aggressive." Wen Jiuxiao's eyes were full of sarcasm, "You are curious, so I have to satisfy your curiosity? Sorry, you are not qualified. The cause and effect of the matter and After that, I will report back to His Highness the Crown Prince in detail, so I won’t bother Mr. Li.”
"You! This officer is also kind..." Before he could finish speaking, he was pulled aside by others. What else? His Royal Highness didn't say anything, are you better than His Royal Highness?
Hey, once you climbed up through nepotism, just stay honest and just stay there. What kind of presence do you want to find in front of Wen Shashen? In the end, it's because they have low qualifications and don't know Mr. Xiaowen well.
The ministers can already foresee that the sky in the capital is about to change!
Ping Wang was very happy, it was so satisfying to see Lord Xiaowen gossip! He hasn't been to court for a long time, and he came here specially to watch the excitement today, Lord Xiaowen really didn't let him down!
Haha, he wants this in-law even more.
Yu Guangxian was in a hurry, and was stopped by someone on the way, "Old Yu, look at your hurry, where are you going?"
"Ask His Highness the Crown Prince for leave." Yu Guangxian couldn't help but smile.
"Abstaining from leave?" Now everyone is curious, you must know that Lao Yu is the most diligent, 365 days a year, he wished to grow up in the Prince's Mansion every day, "Why do you ask for leave?"
Yu Guangxian was even happier, "Don't you all know? My son-in-law and his family have returned to Beijing. I'm going to see my daughter." There are also little granddaughters and grandsons, which he hasn't seen yet.
Everyone looked at each other, and someone said: "Shouldn't your daughter come to see you?"
"Little white face, you have no good intentions, you are the only one who thinks too much!" Yu Guangxian snorted, "My daughter has always been weak and weak. When I was pregnant with my third son, my son-in-law disappeared at sea, and my daughter was so big. I went to sea to look for someone with my belly, and finally found him, and my daughter gave birth prematurely. After that, my daughter's body became weaker. This time, when she went to Beijing, she had to eat and sleep all the way, so her body would take ten days at least It took eight days to rest. As an old father, I went to see what happened to my daughter?"
Yu Guangxian not only publicized a wave of delicate characters for his daughter, but also spread the word that his daughter and son-in-law are deeply in love with each other and share weal and woe. Who said his daughter is not good enough for her son-in-law? A good woman like his daughter is a good woman, do you understand?
"Besides, I'm different from you. You are the water poured out by married girls. I'm just a girl, and it hurts. I can't bear my girl to drag her weak body to see me. Alas, I and you What are you talking about, you don’t understand. Let’s go, I’ll see my daughter is gone.” Yu Guangxian held his hands behind his back, his head held high.
Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. This old Yu has no son, but only a daughter. Is there anything special about it? If they don't understand, he himself doesn't understand!
I don't know what he thinks, he is not willing to adopt someone else's son, so why not give birth to one by himself?
