Brocade clothing as the country

Chapter 589
Shuangxi, who was serving Lin Shulu, knew very well about her master's body. Although the ointment was a medicine for tigers and wolfs, it could indeed hold people back up. In addition, the prescription prescribed by the famous doctor in Jinan Prefecture was also effective. Although it couldn't cure the disease, it was slowly recuperating. Let people not have any major problems.

But the body is getting weaker day by day, but this is irreversible. The longer and longer time Lin Shulu sleeps in the duty room every day is a proof.

"Master, the imperial envoy is the doctor who went to investigate Wang Tong last time, do we need to do something..."

"No, you arrange for the second child to expose the affairs of the Yu family. The investigation of the affairs in Shanxi becomes more and more serious, and there will be less right and wrong in the capital."

Lin Shulu ordered calmly, and Shuangxi quickly agreed, and after a pause, Shuangxi reported with a smile on his face:
"Master, I have a happy event to tell you all the time. When the palace decreed the cabinet to discuss matters the day before yesterday, Zhang Juzheng was recuperating at home. It was the idea to send the decree to his home. Only then did I get the news. Zhang Juzheng The hot air is up."

Having said that, Lin Shulu, who was full of exhaustion, his eyes lit up, he straightened up and said:

"Can you be sure?"

"Master is right. He said that Zhang Juzheng had blisters on his feet and hot air on his head. He invited the hospital's director to give him a diagnosis and treatment. He said that he was in a hurry and overworked. He just needs to rest for a few days."

The smile on Lin Shulu's face was even heavier, and he said with a smile:

"How can Mr. Zhang Ge leave the woman? Besides, that medicine is very helpful to the body, how can he leave?"

Shuangxi nodded with a smile on the side, Lin Shulu pondered for a while, forced himself to sit up straight, and said in a deep voice:
"The people around Xia Yuancheng must use their strength well, so they won't be useless at that time."

This side hastily responded, Lin Shulu picked up a manuscript, flipped through it a few times, and asked:

"Isn't there enough silver?"

"It's a bit tight. I went to Datong to go to the north some time ago. I spent a lot of money. The floating money in the hands of the third master was spent. I don't want to take out my own money. The second master does a lot of things here, but the income is not very much. , It’s also difficult, but the younger ones let the outsiders figure out a way, if you make a lot, you can enter the palace as an errand, and there are nearly 2 taels of income in the past few months..."

Lin Shulu remained silent, and at the end sighed, and said in a deep voice:
"It's a drop in the bucket... Forget it, at this point, why should our family be so closely watched, Double Happiness, what's under the Yumajian, you just reach out and share a share, it's a big gain."

The Yuma Supervisor controls the five battalions, and also has the income of the Huangzhuang Huangdian. I don’t know how much he can do with the income and expenses. Lin Shulu is here as a supervising eunuch. He has always been watching closely. Easy, but Lin Shulu has no time to take care of it these few months, his mouth is gradually released, and fraud such as embezzlement and corruption are rampant again. As Lin Shulu's confidant, if he wants to reach out, others will definitely think it is Eunuch Lin who stretches out his hand. There is profit.

Here, Shuangxi agreed, and Lin Shulu took two pills, and his energy improved a lot. With Shuangxi's support, he walked around the duty room for a few times, and then sat down and continued to review the work.

Shuangxi bid farewell to the duty room, and walked out of the courtyard, a middle-aged eunuch in black robe came up, walked in to see the ceremony, and said with a smile:

"Eunuch Shuangxi, the ten people who entered the palace a few days ago have done pretty well."

Shuangxi nodded, and the eunuch followed cautiously and politely, and said again:
"It's all an old problem. After entering the palace, I thought I was a master. After being taught a lesson, I became honest. But that Li Quan is not bad. He is very simple and honest, and he seems to have no strings in his brain."

"If the brain is easy to use, you won't enter the palace with a few hundred taels of begging!"

Shuangxi sneered and said something in a very low voice, the eunuch behind couldn't hear him clearly, so Shuangxi smiled, turned his head and said:
"There is a shortage of simple and honest people in the palace. Such people are useful."

*************
The emperor issued an order to investigate the border town of Datong, and the people in the capital actually didn't care much about it. Since the Zhengtong year, there have been all kinds of strange things in Datong.

For example, when the Tartars invaded, the border generals made an agreement with the Tartars that the town of Datong would not stop them, and the Tartars crossed Datong and plundered other places. There was also a large group of Tartars who encountered heavy rain on the way back, and many horse soldiers died of illness. When the soldiers returned to the outside of the Great Wall in embarrassment, when they passed Datong Town, the officers and soldiers of Datong Town couldn't shrink back. They waited until the enemy's rear team was thirty miles out of the Fortress, and then pretended to go out of the Fortress to pursue them. They captured hundreds of livestock and called it a great victory.

Before Jiajing 40 years ago, there were mutinies every year in Datong Town. The mutiny of tens of thousands of people immediately subsided when the thousands of southern soldiers arrived.

His incompetence and cowardice are the top of the border towns in the world. The reason why they have been quiet for so many years is that the frontier fortress is peaceful and the imperial court is too lazy to investigate. At that time, one batch will be replaced, and another batch will be replaced, that's all.

The frontier soldiers are incompetent and cowardly, but all these years the world knows that Shanxi merchants are wealthy, Lu'an is rich in silk, Zezhou is prosperous in iron smelting, but these two places have long since fallen, and what resources can Shanxi have to get rich? There is salt, and there is industry, commerce and sea trade in the south of the Yangtze River. To put it bluntly, it is not a trade with the Tartars.

In order to avoid capitalizing on the enemy, the imperial court strictly controlled the salt and iron that was transported to the grasslands, but it was precisely because of the strict control that the traffic was profitable. Shanxi businessmen relied on this to make a fortune.

No matter how uninformed people are, they can come up with so many mistakes. It's so strange that the court will investigate, it's just to see who is unlucky and gets caught.

What the capital is most concerned about is Zhang Ge's old illness. Zhang Juzheng, the chief assistant of the cabinet, has been recuperating at home for three days due to illness. This is really an unprecedented event.

Since the first year of Wanli, Mr. Zhang Ge was the chief assistant, no, since Zhang Juzheng entered the cabinet in the year of Longqing, except for the matter of seizing love and Ding You, Mr. Zhang Ge rested at home for a few days, and never saw him in the rest of the time. Rested due to illness.

For a while, there were many rumors in the capital, those with sufficient status would visit their homes, while those with insufficient status would inquire about the news from many sources, hoping to know the news.

But all the people who came to the door to put them saw Mr. Zhang Ge. Mr. Zhang's face was flushed abnormally, and there was no other abnormality. He said with a smile to several cabinet officials:

"It's a trivial matter, just eat and recuperate. The family made a fuss, but it made everyone bother!"

As the news spread, the guesses and doubts quickly subsided, and everyone turned their attention back to Shanxi to see what kind of excitement and shocking things could happen this time.

Zhang Siwei, a cabinet bachelor, minister of the Ministry of War, and Shen Shixing, a cabinet bachelor and minister of rites, were the first to visit Zhang's mansion, but they were just out of courtesy, and it was not rude to do their duty.

On weekdays, they just work in the cabinet as usual, and nothing unusual can be seen.

"It's just the hot wind. Is this the news from the Tai Hospital?"

There were only two people in the study room of Zhang Siwei, Shangshu of the Ministry of War. Sitting on the chair, Zhang Siwei’s face could not be seen as normal, on the contrary, it was gloomy and terrifying. The man standing opposite him just bowed and replied:
"The little one asked three imperial physicians, and even asked the chief follower of the hospital. They all said that it was due to the hot wind, and he would recover after a few days of recuperation."

Zhang Siwei grabbed a book from the desk next to it, flipped through a few pages and threw it back on the desk, shook his head slightly, sighed and said:
"Enough of this matter, you still keep an eye on the Shen family, and let the inner house pay you the money for buying news flowers."

The man on the opposite side nodded in agreement, and then said:
"Master, except for our family, everyone in Yuanzheng and Taiyuan Hospital who can know about this has been asked. That Jia Yuanzheng collected a lot of money, and it is said that they all went to Tianjin Wei to buy a house... This, do you want to ask me a little..."

"No need, the capital does not know how many people have inquired."

After a few words, the long follower bowed and bowed and retreated. Zhang Siwei picked up the scroll in his hand and put it down again. After going back and forth several times, he breathed a sigh of relief and said to himself:

"I still have to wait!"

*************
The exchange of official documents between Datong and the capital took more than half a month, but the actual news was delivered much faster than this. Within a few days of the decree being issued, Datong already knew the news.

After Sun Daying, the commander-in-chief of Datong, got the news, he immediately became anxious. The decree was so strict. Did the generals in Datong be named? No one in the town of Datong can say how clean they are. up.

Ordinarily holding a heavy army and being an important town on the nine borders, the imperial court did not dare to act rashly, but Sun Daying knew that if any trouble happened to him, he would not need to bring troops from Ji Town Qi Jiguang. Flatten them enough.

It's not that Sun Daying never thought of colluding with the Tartars and taking a risky gamble, but after thinking about it, he can only scold his mother, and the contacts with the Alta Department in Guihua City are all occupied by the Yu family, and no one else can get in. go.

After three days of hesitation, Xiong Zhaocai, the supervisor of Datong, came to visit. Xiong Zhaocai's visit made Sun Daying panic, and arranged all his own soldiers and servants, for fear that the eunuch came to arrest people. Hearing that Xiong Zhaocai brought two The entourage was relieved when they came to the door, and quickly sent someone to invite them in.

"Sun Zongbing, our family is here to inform the adults about something?"

After taking his seat, Xiong Zhaocai got straight to the point, only then did Sun Daying remember that the eunuch in charge of the army in front of him had done a lot of taboo things.

"I don't know what the father-in-law wants to say?"

"Before our family came to Datong, we worked in the Supervisor of Rites and were always under the care of Eunuch Zhang, the eunuch of Bingbi. Yesterday, Eunuch Zhang sent someone to deliver a message, saying that our family will strictly investigate the case with Sun Zongbing and the imperial envoy. !"

Hearing the word "strict investigation", Sun Daying couldn't help shivering, but then he realized what Xiong Zhaocai said, that he would cooperate with the imperial envoy to strictly investigate the fraud case, so it would have nothing to do with his family.
