The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 254
"What's wrong with my sister?"

Meng Haoyu lifted the curtain and entered the door: "There's something wrong with your sister-in-law, my sister has a lot, don't be as knowledgeable as her."

When Yuechan saw Meng Haoyu, her anger grew a little more.

Who is she working so hard for? It's fine if one or two in this family don't appreciate it, and each of them still does their own thing alone, and doesn't pay attention to anything else.

As long as Meng Haoyu or Meng Zhiwen pays attention to Liu Mei, Liu Mei is a woman, and she can't find out such a thing.

Now, they are all in front of the prince. With the prince's money-greedy temperament, it is really difficult for the Meng family to withdraw.

"Where is it sister-in-law's fault? It's my lack of wink. Tete came to make people hate me."

Yuechan had a cold face, and what she said was very unpleasant.

Meng Haoyu and Ji Wanrong looked at each other, feeling puzzled. With Yuechan's temperament, if there were no 12 extremely important matters, she would not be so merciless.

Meng Haoyu cupped his hands in a salute: "Wanrong's fault, I'll make an apology for you on her behalf. For your brother's sake, please let her go this time."

Meng Haoyu and his wife bowed down a bit, and Yuechan didn't really want to embarrass them, so she sighed: "It's because I was a little impatient, because the matter is too important, and I can't help it. If I lose my temper, Offended brother and sister-in-law, please take care of me because I am young, and don't care about me."

While speaking, Yuechan stood up and bowed her waist in salute, and smiled lightly: "This is not a good thing, I'm afraid our Meng family's century-old foundation will be destroyed in one fell swoop."

Shi Po shocked!

Both Meng Haoyu and Ji Wanrong were shocked.

After a long while, Meng Haoyu asked blankly: "How is this possible? My father and I have always been in peace, and never participated in any party disputes. Why..."

"You guys are safe, someone is calling you restless!" Yuechan knocked on the table, "My wife is afraid that our family is doing too well, so she joined hands with the prince to come up with the idea of ​​Jiangnan salt road and water transportation, and heard people say that she even bought officials. Selling an official and giving a lot of interest, the prince knows about this matter, it's a pity that our family has no letter at all, if it wasn't... If I hadn't been in contact with Yuanniang of the Yu family, and there was a loyal thrush, I rushed to report the letter , I’m afraid I’m still in the dark, when the time comes, our family’s house will be confiscated, and we don’t know who caused it.”

"This……"

Meng Haoyu was stunned for a moment, one of them lost his footing and nearly fell, but it was Ji Wanrong who helped him to stand on his feet.

Yuechan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief: "I've lost everyone, my family did such a thing, and I would have no face in front of the prince. Fortunately, the prince is reasonable and didn't blame me. If not , even if I die immediately, I won’t be able to get rid of the crime.”

Ji Wanrong didn't think much about it before, but thought that Liu Mei had gone too far, and thought that the prince was involved in this matter, so there shouldn't be any serious consequences.

Later, seeing Meng Haoyu's face became more and more gloomy, and Yuechan was also crying with sincerity, only then did he realize that something might be wrong.

"Sister, don't cry yet, talk to me, after all..." Ji Wanrong asked blankly.

Meng Haoyu slapped Ji Wanrong on the shoulder: "You are also literate, and you are also from a wealthy family. Why do you ask such questions? What is the salt road? It is the foundation of a country, and the people can live without salt for a day." Live, my wife wants to intervene in Yandao, let's not talk about the emperor's place, I don't know how many people's interests are involved in it, when the time comes, even one person will bite our family to death, our family said it is the Duke of the country The government, but what is going on, we know in our hearts, this is just an empty viscount, my father and I don't have any real power, if they want to punish us, it will be easy."

"Ah?" Ji Wanrong exclaimed.

"The water in the canal transport is deeper. My wife is rushing to seek death. Also, how can you do the business of buying an official? The prince can buy and sell. If the wife intervenes here, the emperor won't know. When the time comes, the first one to rule It is the crime of our family. After all, since ancient times, there has been no old father who killed his parents, and the emperor can't do such a thing. It's really beyond control. Those who follow the prince to do this are the first to be unlucky. The emperor doesn't say himself The son is not, but we instigated it."

Meng Haoyu sighed and continued: "There is also the matter of interest. This court prohibits officials from giving interest, and my wife made it clear. When the emperor protected us, it was fine. It depends on our dislike. This is evidence of crime."

While talking, Meng Haoyu stumbled: "Madam, why are you so foolish to do such a thing, let me, let me have no face to meet the ancestors of the Meng family."

"Don't talk about shame, what should we do about this?" Yuechan asked with a sigh.

For a while, Meng Haoyu had no idea, Ji Wanrong only looked at Yuechan.

"Don't even look at me, I'm a weak woman, so I don't have any ideas." Yuechan waved her hand and glanced at Meng Haoyu: "Brother, you should talk to your father about this matter, as for how father will punish his wife, that's up to you." It's out of our control."

Meng Haoyu nodded: "At this point, this is the only way to go."

Yuechan said again: "Since the lord knows about this, I'm afraid the emperor will know about it long ago. Brother, you and father will go to the pleading paper, just say that you didn't take care of the backyard. If you go to the emperor to plead guilty, you should admit your mistake first, and then you If we find out about this matter, others will not be able to bite our family."

"Yes!" Before Meng Haoyu could speak, Ji Wanrong said first: "What my sister said is, Xianggong, you and your father-in-law should make an early apology, I hope the emperor will forgive us this time for the sake of our family's loyalty. "

Yuechan couldn't help nodding, although Ji Wanrong said that she didn't have a good eye for big things, but she was obedient and knew the priorities. In this regard, she was much better than Liu Mei. It's rare, but it's better than Liu Mei's self-assessment, thinking she's very smart, but doing stupid things all the time.

Meng Haoyu turned around, stomped his feet while thinking, finally gritted his teeth and said, "Sure, I'll talk to daddy, before things get serious, I'll admit my mistake to the emperor first, and if we want to be beaten or punished, we will naturally accept it." on."

Ji Wanrong looked at Meng Haoyu, then at Yuechan, suddenly knelt down with a plop, she lowered her head, covered her face with her hands and began to cry: "Sister, Xianggong is your real brother, he has loved you since childhood, now he is like this... …I don’t know how the emperor will deal with it, but I hope that my sister, for the sake of brotherly love, begs the prince to say something kind in front of the emperor, so that the emperor will forgive the father-in-law and father-in-law."

Her behavior made Yuechan angry and funny, and finally said helplessly: "Get up first, what are you doing, I will intercede with the prince, but, what will the emperor do when the time comes? It’s not up to the prince to decide.”

Meng Haoyu helped Ji Wanrong up. Although she felt that she was doing this unreasonably, but in the end she was really thinking of herself, and it was difficult to say anything, so she said: "You are confused, my sister knows everything in her heart, she can look at me regardless what?"

Ji Wanrong wiped her tears and said: "Yes, my concubine is confused, please don't take offense to my sister."

Yuechan could only wave her hand powerlessly: "Forget it, you are also concerned about chaos, I know it in my heart."

For a while, the three of them sat down, discussing how to plead guilty and how to escape, they talked too much, and forgot the time.

Study in the Three Kings Mansion
Gao Zixuan patted the table: "Third brother, this is a good opportunity. Third brother doesn't need to stand out, younger brother will make a decision for you. Coincidentally, younger brother has a few handles from the five princes and other officials. I will use it. I don't believe them." If they are disobedient, let them take part in the play. The prince is bold enough to intervene in the Yanwu River Transport in the south of the Yangtze River. I am not afraid that the prince will not hate him."

Huo Sicheng was fanning on the side, dressed in white, very refreshing: "My lord, what the ninth lord said is true. A while ago, the five kings were treacherous and used the time when the lord married the side concubine to let the actor lure the prince and put the prince on his body. Dirty, at this moment, the prince can naturally bring trouble on the five kings."

The third prince pondered for a moment, then clenched his fists: "Ninth Brother, are you [-]% sure about this matter?"

Gao Zixuan nodded: "Third brother, you can wait, don't you worry about my younger brother's work? Besides, there are still things about the Meng family here. No matter what happens to my younger brother, I can't drag the Meng family into trouble."

Huo Sicheng lowered his head and smiled wryly, looking at the appearance of the Ninth Prince, he was attracted to Yuechan, even so, he should be able to let go, but why is his heart so painful?
"Father has always cared the most about the salt administration. In terms of salt affairs, they are all officials who are loyal to the father. Anyone who wants to interfere here will just wait until they can't afford it. If this can be done, The prince's power has been greatly damaged, if he goes crazy, the fifth brother will not feel good, when the time comes, one will grow and the other will grow, both of them will be weakened, and the third brother will naturally sit on the Diaoyutai."

Gao Zixuan took a sip of tea and said leisurely.

The third prince's heart moved, and he deeply felt that what Gao Zixuan said was true, and the two he really wanted to pick...

He was thinking about it, but he heard the little eunuch who was used by the third prince outside loudly: "Feng side concubine, please go slowly, the prince has business to do, please wait a moment."

The third prince frowned tightly, Gao Zixuan looked at it, got up and said: "Third brother, there is nothing serious, younger brother will leave first."

Huo Sicheng also hurriedly cupped his hands: "My lord, I will also take my leave."

The third prince waved his hands, and both of them walked out quickly.

As soon as he went out, Gao Zixuan looked at Huo Sicheng: "I heard that Wenqing is talented, and he is the most powerful with Jiji."

Huo Sicheng smiled: "Where, when it comes to this way, the Ninth Princess is really proficient. I can only follow the drawings when I have blueprints, but the Ninth Princess knows some ancient formation techniques. As a secret device, it is naturally within reach."

Gao Zixuan was stunned, he didn't expect Yuechan to have such a skill, after thinking about it for a while, he felt a little uncomfortable, how could Huo Sicheng know about Yuechan's ability, but he didn't know at all.

"Why do you ask this?" Huo Sicheng closed the fan and tapped it in his hand, with a faint smile on his face, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"It's nothing serious. I just wonder if it's possible to make a faster car and build a few better roads. At that time, it may replace water transportation, and save the court from spending money and resources to maintain the big road." The canal will be scraped off by those corrupt officials." Gao Zixuan smiled and shook his head to shake off some thoughts.

After hearing this, Huo Sicheng thought for a moment: "This matter is feasible. As far as I know, among the formation techniques that the Ninth Princess understands, there is exactly one that is related to this. Why don't you go back and ask?"

Gao Zixuan nodded and chuckled, and didn't speak anymore.

There, Feng Feifei broke into the study, saw the third prince sitting there, with a bit of displeasure on his face, went over and tugged at the third prince: "What did you say before, you only said that there is no one else in your heart but me, but why did you rest yesterday? In Concubine He's room, you...are you right with me?"

Before the third prince could speak, Feng Feifei said again: "I'm a doctor, so naturally I take treating patients and saving lives as my duty. Now that I'm married to you, I can't leave the house, so I treat some servants in this mansion. But your princess and What did the side concubine say, saying that I am willing to be lowly, what is wrong with me seeing a doctor? You don't care if they say that about me. "
