Princess Fuyao

Chapter 40
Yinhu didn't say what he asked Fuyao to do, but he revealed his hatred for the Zhenbei Palace, so that General Guo could better find out his life experience.

Perhaps, Yinhu was the son of a certain official who was affected by Liang Bingwang's fight for power and profit. Now Fuyao found out that because the capital is not far from the northern border, there are also people like Yinhu with deep eye sockets, just wandering back and forth on the street so openly , no one regarded it as a Tartar spy, and she doubted her own judgment again.

It was also because Fuyao had heard a lot of gossip about King Zhenbei recently that he lost all affection for him. What Yinhu said and the bits and pieces of news she heard just matched.In the past in northern Xinjiang, I felt that it was not easy to run a military camp guarding the customs to such an extent, but now I know that it is not the credit of Liang Bingwang.

Liang Bingwang's father was conferred the title of Zhenbei King because of his great contribution to the battle against the Tartars more than 20 years ago. Later, because of his body injured in the war and overwork, he died within a few years of being crowned king. up.In fact, after he became king, his eldest son Liang Bingzheng helped him handle the affairs of the northern border military camp. down his shadow.For example, recruiting talents through martial arts competitions every year, martial arts training activities in spring and summer, and mutual support mechanisms in winter defense. It can be said that the Tartars defeated by the northern king Liang Jian of the old town, and the iron wall built by the northern king Liang Bingzheng of the small town encircle the Northern Xinjiang Great Wall. camp.

Liang Bingzheng was talented and martial arts superb, but unfortunately he devoted himself to serving the country and didn't know the way of the mean, so his achievements surpassed the Lord's and violated the emperor's taboo.In his later years, the first emperor was domineering and suspicious, and all the ministers in the court were in danger. At this time, a censor suddenly impeached Liang Bingzheng, and the emperor immediately ordered the Liang family to be copied and handed over to Dali Temple for trial.

That time, Jiang Chen was not the first to impeach Liang Bingzheng, but he was the most ruthless.

Everyone in the court knew that Liang Bingzheng had been wronged, but the old emperor fell ill after he made that decree.Throwing people into the prison, Dali Temple will have to interrogate them every day. Liang Bingzheng has a straight temper and can't stand this grievance. He commits suicide in prison. The family is still wronged in prison, internal and external, and they also hit a wall and died.

The new emperor is a very affectionate person. The first thing he did when he took the throne was to release the Liang family from prison, and let Liang Bingwang inherit the title of Zhenbei King.

Veteran He Ying suggested to the emperor: "The Liang family can no longer bear more disasters, it is better to let him only be a prince, and no longer serve as the marshal of the Northern Xinjiang camp."

Emperor Jiaming hesitated, he didn't want the Liang family to continue to control the military power in northern Xinjiang, and he didn't want people to say that they would kill the donkey.

"Your Majesty, the tree attracts the wind. Liang Jian was transformed from a warrior into a prince and nobleman in less than 30 years. It will inevitably attract the envy and jealousy of some people, and slander is inevitable. If he continues to take care of the affairs of northern Xinjiang, he will be raised by the crowd in the future." And what should we do to attack him? It would be better to reward him generously. Then we should promote one of the generals trained by the Liang family to be a marshal, and let the other generals assist. Anyway, the soldiers in northern Xinjiang have formed a The mutual support mechanism is very effective in dealing with the invasion of the Tartars, as long as the marshal faithfully follows the battle plan rehearsed by King Zhenbei, there will be absolutely no trouble."

"Well, that's not bad." The emperor quickly decreed that King Zhenbei had a large piece of land, and rewarded him with a lot of gold and silver. Then, he let his family enjoy the happiness in the capital without having to go to northern Xinjiang to suffer from the severe cold and frost. It's hard.

However, the king of Zhenbei did not enjoy his life in a leisurely way. He actively devoted himself to the affairs of the court. The emperor gradually relied on him when he saw that he was mature and proficient. He has the right to speak in affairs, and can also dictate other government affairs. The Zhenbei Palace has not weakened because it no longer manages the northern border, but has improved to a higher level.

But in the past few years, the words attacking King Zhenbei have gradually increased. If the emperor hadn't vigorously suppressed it, it would have been much stronger than the impeachment of Liang Bingzheng back then. , Wanton corruption, accepting kickbacks when appointing merchants to make military uniforms.Intervene in salt affairs, water transportation, compete with the people for profit, etc.

The emperor read those memorials carefully, and knew that Liang Bingwang had a little problem, a bit greedy, but it was not as serious as what was said in the memorial. He reprimanded him once, and seeing that he restrained himself, he did not have any punishment.

What Fuyao suddenly became disgusted with Liang Bingwang was what happened to He Ying.

He Ying has three sons, the eldest and the second are not good at studying, only the youngest son, He Can, is very smart. At the age of 19, he participated in Qiuwei in the capital and won No. 9. , the He family will decline, and then one by one changed their minds.

Unexpectedly, not long ago, He Can went to the inn to have a meeting with some of the same year. When he returned late, he was trampled by a startled horse and died. He Ying was disheartened and took the whole family back to his hometown of Anzhou.

Liang Bingwang is a very power-hungry person, He Ying has ruined his official luck.Although there was no evidence pointing to He Can's death, when Fuyao heard the news, he was extremely disappointed in Liang Bingwang!Extremely disgusted!Extreme resentment!
He Ying is taciturn, cautious in his words and deeds on weekdays, and rarely offends others. Even if he persuaded the emperor to seize Liang Bingwang's military power, he also proceeded from the perspective of protecting the Zhenbei Palace. Unfortunately, his kindness killed his favorite youngest son.

Seeing Fuyao pondering, Yinhu didn't speak, but just watched quietly, and the room fell into silence for a while.

"How much do you know about He Can's death?"

"His servant said that it was late at midnight when the accident happened, and there was no one on the street. Suddenly, a horse-drawn carriage rushed over. The young master was a little drunk and tried to dodge, but fell down. He hurried to help, but was kicked by the horse. On one side, the carriage ran over the young master. He Can died at the time, and the servant died two days later. He Ying also checked, but found nothing."

"Where are the few proposals of the meeting with He Can? Are there no suspicions?"

"No."

"Where do they meet?"

"Zhuangyuan Building, the business was very good at that time, and there were people coming and going, and it was impossible to track down."

"He Can died unjustly like this? You don't even know who framed him?"

"So, Fuyao, you're so smart, why don't you follow me and investigate Liang Bingwang's outrageous things?"

"Okay, okay, I'm afraid that the time I've stayed in the capital is too short, and I don't know much, so I won't be of much help to you."

"It doesn't matter, one more person will give you more strength."

Du Hu coughed outside: "Master, let's eat."

Yinhu took a look at Fuyao: "You have a good taste, today I'm hungry, so I sent Erhu to the only roast duck restaurant to buy dishes."

"Hehe, then I'll be more polite." Thinking of the crispy roast duck, served with a rich noodle sauce, tender shredded scallions, rolled into the chewy pancake, Fuyao couldn't help but salivate, and she swallowed , smiled embarrassedly, "Mother doesn't know how to live. If she has money, she eats Haisai. When Dad was not a corrupt official, he ate it once."But she had to explain why she had such a conditioned reflex just now.

"If you like it, I will buy it often in the future." Yinhu said in a doting tone.

For a while, Fuyao was still a little unaccustomed to him like this, she lowered her head in shame and said nothing.She was terrified because of the short mouth of cannibalism. Seeing the shyness of a little girl in Yinhu's eyes, she actually felt very sweet in her heart.

As a result, the plate served by Du Hu was only roast duck, not the crispy and fragrant pearly duck skin at all, and there were no pancakes or scallion-flavored noodle sauce.

Alas, I guess that kind of eating method hasn't been invented yet, so Fuyao had no choice but to make up for it, and asked Dahu to prepare some soy sauce and vinegar water with shredded green onions, and prepared to dip it into it.

Yinhu was very interested in Fuyao's taste, and learned how to put it in his mouth.

"Oh, it's delicious, I didn't expect..." I didn't expect Fuyao to eat it only once, and he could think of such tricks, he didn't have the nerve to say it, Duo lowered his head to help the young master make tea, feeling suspicious of Fuyao in his heart Another layer deepened.

Fuyao didn't notice Duhu's strangeness, and was still thinking about whether to find a big restaurant in the capital and use his knowledge of how to cook roast duck as a secret recipe in exchange for some money.Dad wrote to say that the eldest sister and his wife are coming to the capital, Yaoqian is happy, the northern Xinjiang is extremely cold, it is not easy for children to survive, and Zhang Chengyi has no parents, so he wants his mother-in-law to help take care of his wife and give birth. No matter how caring you are, you are afraid that you will not take good care of her.

There is no overnight food at home now, how will Yaoqian live when she comes?Zhang Chengyi has some savings in his hand, but the capital city is expensive, so living in it is not easy.

Seeing that Fuyao is so gentle, Yinhu appreciates it, but Duhu is even more suspicious.After eating, Duhu cleared the table and served tea: "Master, Fuyao joins us, do you want to make an alliance with blood?"

Yinhu was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't want Fuyao to respond quickly: "Yes! You go and buy a gun, and make a jug of wine."

Dumb stood silently, waiting for his master's orders.

"Okay! Let's go."

When Dug walked out of the room, he heard Fuyao coming with a smile, "Tonight, I'll roast Beggar's chicken for everyone."

It turned out that he readily agreed, and this was the idea. The young master saw this woman as a foodie, isn't she usually dignified?He accidentally stepped on his right foot with his left foot and almost fell down.

As soon as Dumb said the words "blood is an alliance", Fuyao knew what the other party meant, so he was worried about her, hmph!She deliberately said angry words, Yinhu saw the turbulent undercurrent between the two, and laughed hehehe.

Dumb was even annoyed when he heard that.My heart said that the young master really has the opposite sex but not the same sex.Hmph, I didn't like little servants when I was a child, I only wanted to play with little girls, and I can't change this problem when I grow up.
