The story of the husband and the son of the doctor and daughter of Houmen

Chapter 633 Ming Jian (3)
"Madam, do you want to..." Xu Shiyang was jealous, if Yao Yanyu hadn't told him that he was only allowed to inquire but not to do anything, he would have strangled that fat man on the spot.

"Punishing corrupt officials is not our job. There are six ministries and nine ministries in the country, each of which must perform its duties. I will write a letter, and you will send your company back to the capital to my father as quickly as possible."

"Yes." Xu Shiyang responded with a bow.

That night, Yao Yanyu didn't close his eyes all night, until dawn, he wrote a letter to Yao Yuanzhi, put it in an envelope and sealed it with wax paint, and then put away the previous drafts and threw them into the brazier to be reduced to ashes.

In order to avoid the entanglement of those corrupt officials, Yao Yanyu ordered her to leave before dawn, and head west along the Qing River upstream.He didn't even keep his promise to have breakfast with Yao Yanen again.

By the time Yao Yanen rushed to the pier with Yao Yanyu's previous favorite food at dawn, the two official ships and the two thousand Jinlin Guards had long since disappeared.

The uncle of the Yao family sighed helplessly, and stood by the river for half an hour with the cold wind blowing before he took his family back to Jiangning City helplessly.

Half a month later, Yao Yuanzhi ordered someone to send a letter quickly, scolding Yao Yanen, scolding him for not being enterprising, not knowing people well, working with corrupt officials, and ruining the century-old reputation of the Yao family. If someone sells it, they might even count the money for them!Only then did Yao Yanen know why the second sister left in a hurry without waiting for him.

Not to mention how Yao Yanen defended himself, but Yao Yanyu and Yunyao led two thousand Jinlin Guards all the way upstream, ordered people to put away the full guard of honor, concealed the official marks, and just pretended to be an ordinary merchant ship , usually only replenish vegetables, grains and rice at the small docks, and the docks above the county level will not stop. They travel day and night all the way, and finally arrive at the Huzhou dock 20 days later.

The Huzhou county magistrate waited anxiously for more than a month, and finally the official ship to send Chenggong, the old court official, back to his hometown for burial, was greeted at the pier by the official yamen servants and the gentry of Huzhou County.

Another set of red tape, not to mention Yun Yao is impatient, even Yao Yanyu is also a little impatient.It's just that the teacher can go back to her hometown with dignity and settle down in peace, she has to be patient no matter how impatient she is.

Huzhou County Magistrate Tang Ruding had already arranged a coffin shed, sacrificial shed and other trivial matters.The inner and outer coffins of Zhang Cangbei were brought down from the boat and placed in the coffin, and there were Zhang's nephews and nephews dressed in linen and filial piety to worship the crying spirit.Seeing this, Yao Yanyu felt only a burst of sadness in her heart, thinking that the teacher was lonely all his life, but after his death, there were so many filial sons and virtuous grandchildren crying. I really don't know whether it is gratifying or sad.

Just as he was secretly feeling emotional, Tang Ruding came forward and asked Yao Yanyu for instructions: "Your official has already discussed with the old patriarch of the Zhang family to choose a geomantic treasure land as the tomb for Duke Cheng, but there is no order from Mrs. Fuguo, so I dare not In private."

Yao Yanyu said: "Today is too late, I will go with you tomorrow to have a look."

Tang Ruding was stunned for a moment, thinking that this second-rank lady, a woman of the generation, is going to go over mountains and ridges to see the cemetery in person?

Yao Yanyu didn't speak, so he frowned and asked, "What? Is there something wrong?"

"Uh... Our Huzhou has many mountains and dense forests, and the road between the mountains is really difficult. I am afraid that Madam will not be able to endure those hardships. Why don't Madam send a reliable person to check it out, and come back and draw a picture for Madam to see?"

Yao Yanyu waved her hands, looked at the hundred or so people in the mourning shed over there, and said calmly, "No need. Master and I love each other like father and daughter. I couldn't honor him when he was alive, but now he's gone. , I have to go and see this hundred-year-old resting place in person to be at ease. Also, I will guard the tomb of my master here for a year, and the emperor has already approved it. So no matter how difficult the road is, I will go of."

As soon as Tang Ruding heard that this man was going to live here for a year, his original calmness disappeared, and he hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, then I will make arrangements for you, next morning, I will bring someone to the post office. The museum will take the lady into the mountain."

"Okay." Yao Yanyu didn't talk nonsense to him, turned around and walked towards the posthouse.Anyway, the coffin of the coffin is full of members of the Zhang clan, and they are not willing to steal the old man's coffin back home.

After entering the post house, Yao Yanyu went to the clean room at the back to take a bath, changed into a light blue homely collared deep coat, and came out, but saw Yunyao sitting on the bamboo mat and looking down at some files, which looked like some contracts.And Yelan stood beside him silently, seeing Yao Yanyu, he just cupped his hands and fisted.

Yao Yanyu took a seat opposite Yunyao, and Yunyao handed the things in front of her: "Look for yourself."

"What is this?" Yao Yanyu took the stack of files and looked through them carefully, and couldn't help frowning: "The title deed? This doesn't look like it?"

"It's a trick by Zhang's distant nephew in order to buy a cemetery for Zhang. He first exchanged the land for land, and exchanged his family's Susukida for other people's good land. It was agreed that two acres would be exchanged for one acre, but He also bribed Tang Ruding, not according to the rules, and positioned the Susukina of the Zhang family as good land, one acre for one acre, and he didn’t say it before, he had to wait until they had planted all the crops.”

"Those farmers agreed to trade with him?"

"He is holding the banner of the imperial decree, and he has an accomplice like Tangru Town. Who would dare not change it? This is the evidence for their replacement of the land, and our people from Jinlinwei came to collect it in advance." Yun Yao's voice was calm, There was no anger on her face, but Yao Yanyu knew that she was really angry, even more angry than when she saw Yu Honglie in Jiangning City that day.

"Then what should we do?" Yao Yanyu once thought that some people would play tricks, but he didn't expect this to happen.

Yun Yao narrowed her beautiful phoenix eyes, shed some cold light, and said, "Aren't you going to visit the cemetery tomorrow?"

"Yes. I was worried about these people, so I wanted to go and see for myself."

"I will go with you."

"What do you want to do?" Yao Yanyu asked hurriedly.

Yun Yao shook her head lightly: "I don't know yet, I can only go and see first."

"Hey!" Yao Yanyu sighed helplessly, thinking that if I knew it was such a trouble, I should really ask for a few capable people to come. , this matter is easy to handle.

The prince of Kecheng said that he was worried, so he sent another princess here.It's good now, both of them are women's generation, and Yun Yao has that temperament, it seems that she can only rely on herself to deal with the government.

What annoyance!Thinking of this, Yao Yanyu snapped the file in her hand onto the small table in front of her.

Yao Yanyu didn't sleep well all night, her mind was full of things about the cemetery, and she didn't have much energy when she woke up the next day.On the contrary, Yunyao is like a normal person, she sleeps when she needs to sleep, eats when she needs to eat, and nothing can affect her mood of eating and sleeping, which makes Yao Yanyu very envious.
