The King of Xinyang immediately wanted to kill Chu Mo'er, who had clearly warned Chu Mo'er not to cause trouble again, but she agreed well, but when she turned around and made such a big mess for him, she dared to send someone to assassinate Mu Tinglan. It was so stupid and bold.

When he rushed back to the palace, Lord Liu had already found Chu Mo'er's yard. The housekeeper of the palace had no choice but to try hard to stabilize Lord Liu, but how could Lord Liu sit there and wait? He started to investigate people directly and pointed the finger at Chu Mo'er. Even if the housekeeper denied it, he could not find a few people to replace the guards in Chu Mo'er's yard immediately.

Moreover, when they came to Chu Mo'er's yard, they happened to hear Chu Mo'er and the girl saying that Mu Tinglan was dead. What else can the housekeeper say now? The guard was the guard in Chu Mo'er's yard, and they were also heard talking about assassinating Mu Tinglan. Lord Liu immediately wanted the yamen to take Chu Mo'er away.

Where is Chu Mo'er? She was waiting wholeheartedly for the news of Mu Tinglan's death. She originally planned to send someone to assassinate Mu Tinglan on the day of Mu Tinglan's birthday, because the guards of the General's Mansion must have been weak on that day, but what happened that day soon reached her. She was both happy and angry. Of course, the engagement between Mu Tinglan and her brother could finally be invalidated. What was angry was that the General's Mansion dared to treat her family like that. Mu Tinglan was just a beggar. How noble could she be? Maybe her innocence would have disappeared long ago? Isn't it just a beggar like this kind of person to be a beggar? Even if he was framed, it was their own rebellion. General Mu actually blamed them and embarrassed them. Chu Mo'er was so angry.

But because of this, she did not send someone to assassinate Mu Tinglan immediately, but waited for another day.

But unexpectedly, she did not wait for the news of Mu Tinglan's assassination, but waited for Lord Liu. Chu Mo'er immediately turned pale with fright and quickly denied that when King Xinyang arrived, she was eager to hide behind King Xinyang and asked King Xinyang to save her.

Nan Muqiao was so excited. Liu De knew that he looked old-fashioned, but he was actually in a dark heart. Because he had Emperor Jiaxuan as his backer, he was not afraid of these powers at all. In addition, after General Mu's secret instruction, he had nothing to be afraid of. No matter what King Xinyang said, he just wanted to take Chu Mo'er back to ask questions.

In the end, Chu Mo'er was really taken away. When she took her away, she was so snot and tears that she was so disfigured.

After watching the play, King Xinyang came directly to the general's mansion.

"What did you give him?" Nan Muqiao asked, sitting opposite Mu Tinglan.

"There is nothing." Mu Tinglan said with a smile.

"Hmph, do you think I believe it?" Nan Muqiao rolled his eyes and said, "This Gu Heng looks good. His future development should be very good, right?"

Mu Tinglan looked at him deeply, "Of course it will be good. If such a smart person dies, it would be a pity?" Mo Xiang and Mo Yan are still there, and she couldn't say that Gu Heng will be more than ten thousand people in the future, and this process only took three years.

Nan Muqiao raised his eyebrows. It seemed that Gu Heng was really amazing.

This very powerful Gu Heng returned to Chengtian Mansion after leaving the General's Mansion. He was quick and did not need to confront the King of Xinyang and others. So when he returned to Chengtian Mansion, Lord Liu was still in the palace.

Seeing that Lord Liu had not come back yet, Gu Heng returned to his office room, and then he took out the things Mu Tinglan gave him to see.

Open the veil, there is a piece of gold ingot and an address.

Gu Heng narrowed his eyes slightly, then he picked up Jin Yuanbao and looked at it. At the bottom of Jin Yuanbao, he found the words of the Jingtai Silver Bureau for six years. Seeing this, Gu Heng's pupils shrank slightly and was surprised.

The sixth year of Jiaxuan was the most difficult year since Emperor Jiaxuan came to power. In that year, there were constant wars between the four countries. Nanyong happened to floods in the south, and then there was a snow disaster in the north. In that year, Nanyong suffered countless casualties. Not only the floods in the south took away countless lives, but even the borders in the north, there were countless casualties. That year, Nanyong had extremely difficult times to reach officials and powerful people, and from the people.

Of course, it is unknown whether the powerful people are really difficult, but no one dares to be really big. Even the emperor and the empress dowager did not have a birthday, just to save money to provide disaster relief, to exchange food and grass for soldiers on the border, and to keep warm clothes.

That year, the court allocated five or six disaster relief funds in total, nearly 10 million taels of silver, almost emptied the entire national treasury. However, at this time, the third time in which the disaster relief funds were allocated, they encountered bandits and bandits. They kidnapped all the disaster relief funds in total, and the officers and soldiers who escorted the official silver were killed halfway.

At the beginning, this incident shocked the court and the public. Emperor Jiaxuan was furious and ordered the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Revenue to thoroughly investigate the case, but the bandits and the official silver disappeared out of thin air and were never recovered.

During this period, Wei Shujing, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was involved.

After the official silver was robbed, someone reported that the Minister of Revenue was robbed by the Minister of Revenue and also received some official silver from his family. Because of this, the Wei family was killed by Emperor Jiaxuan, who was extremely angry at the time. It seemed that only one of Wei Shujing's grandson was left behind because of the child's mother, who had saved Emperor Jiaxuan's original wife, was remembered for this, Emperor Jiaxuan left a descendant for the Wei family.

But the child disappeared afterwards.

But there is another thing, that is, the official silver found from the Wei family was only 100,000 taels, and the remaining more than 2 million taels of official silver have no trace yet.

But now, Mu Tinglan gave him this gold ingot, which was still suspected to be an inch from the official silver that was robbed.

Gu Heng calmed down his shock, then bent down, fiddled for a while, and when he sat down, the gold ingot had disappeared. As for the address, Gu Heng looked at it several times, remembered the address, and took out a fire note and burned the note.

Looking at the ashes on the ground, Gu Heng's eyes were dim.

This little sincerity really makes people stand upright.

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Liu called you to come over."

"knew."

After confirming that the notes had all burned to ashes, Gu Heng stood up and went to find Lord Liu with the Yamashi.

Lord Liu is drinking tea, and it is really too high-profile along the way. Although the people's guidance to Chu Mo'er along the way is a bit unauthorized, Lord Liu is still a little happy. Chu Mo'er really needs to learn some lessons. Since there is no way to convict Chu Mo'er in the future, it is okay to let Chu Mo'er look at some colors before the "real murderer" surrenders.

"grown ups."

"Zi Xun, you are here, how about it? Did the princess ask anything?" Lord Liu put the teacup aside.

"Sir, you should know that there are only a few people who have offended the princess, but the princess is not very suspicious of the Xinyang Palace." Gu Heng said.

"This fact is all in front of you, but that's true. If it were me, I would also doubt whether someone deliberately framed these people." Mr. Liu said, "But in fact, it's true that these people are from the Xinyang Palace."

"Has the prince caught someone?"

"Of course, how can I explain to the general's mansion if I bring the person back?" said Lord Liu. "Let's go back and talk to the people in the prison, but I have to take care of the people."

"I understand, sir." Gu Heng nodded.

"I guess that there must be chaos outside now, and the Xinyang Palace is also unfavorable." But it was also his own, "but after the General's Mansion and the Xinyang Palace broke up, the balance maintained in the court will be disrupted."

Gu Heng didn't say anything. If the Xinyang Palace could stand firm, there would naturally be no such thing as chaos. However, judging from the performance of the Xinyang Palace in recent years, I'm afraid that even if the Xinyang Palace can stand firm, the Xinyang Princess and others would drag the Xinyang King down.

You know, Chu Ran and Qi Yuan and the others are both making great progress now, and Qi Bohou is originally the third prince.

The next day, someone came to "submit himself".

The person who surrendered was the wet nurse beside Chu Mo'er. She confessed that it was because Chu Mo'er was repeatedly punished for Mu Tinglan, so she hated Mu Tinglan. Then she instructed the guards to go to the general's mansion to assassinate Mu Tinglan. Because she was Chu Mo'er's wet nurse, Chu Mo'er usually trusted her very much, so the guards thought that this was Chu Mo'er's meaning, so they went to the general's mansion to assassinate without doubt.

When the case was heard, many people and Liu Qi from the General's Mansion came to listen. The people's thoughts might be a little simple, and they were not very suspicious of this, but Liu Qi knew it. Seeing Chu Mo'er looking haggard and embarrassed after only one day in Chengtian Mansion, Liu Qi would not be pitiful, but was thinking in his heart how to help Mu Tinglan get some interest back in the future.

The case ended soon after that. Chu Mo'er's wet nurse and the guards dared to assassinate the princess of the dynasty, so he naturally couldn't survive. The royal palace also suffered a crime of poor supervision. However, how to punish him, Lord Liu thought it would be better to let the emperor solve it.

After the case was settled, Liu Qi left Chengtian Mansion, and Chu Mo'er also went back with the housekeeper of the royal mansion. The King of Xinyang did not come to support his daughter. Naturally, Princess Xinyang and Chu Ran who were still punished would not appear even more.

When Chu Mo'er had not had time to be glad that she finally had no sentence or punishment, she returned to the palace. What greeted her was King Xinyang's anger. King Xinyang had never hit Chu Mo'er before, but this time he beat him, and he immediately made the corners of Chu Mo'er's mouth bleeding, and then scolded him. Finally, he asked someone to send Chu Mo'er to the village outside Ancheng.

Chu Mo'er was not willing to do it. She was crying and making a fuss. But King Xinyang was really angry this time by Chu Mo'er, and there was no room for negotiation. In the end, Chu Mo'er was taken into the carriage and left Ancheng.

On the way, Chu Mo'er was still crying and scolding Mu Tinglan. If it weren't for Mu Tinglan, she wouldn't have been sent to the village at all. There was no deadline for this trip. If King Xinyang would never let her come back in his life, what should she do? That is, while she was cursing endlessly, a group of men in black suddenly appeared and fought with the guards of the royal palace. These men in black did not hurt people's lives, but just scared Chu Mo'er. They always sent the knife to Chu Mo'er and then suddenly moved away. This scared Chu Mo'er so much that she wet her skirt and fainted.

This situation was naturally reported to King Xinyang, but King Xinyang didn't say anything. After seeing it, he knew it was done by the General's Mansion.

Chu Mo'er sent someone to assassinate Mu Tinglan. Even if they introduced Chu Mo'er's wet nurse to punish him, they all knew that the real messenger behind the scenes was Chu Mo'er. At that time, Liu Qi did not directly overturn the wet nurse's confession, but it was already a concession made in the past friendship. The General's Mansion did not insist on letting Chu Mo'er commit suicide, which does not mean that they really let Chu Mo'er go. Mu Tinglan was frightened, and they still had to escape back some justice, so this was the case.

Since the General's Mansion just wanted to teach Chu Mo'er a lesson, and did not want to really take Chu Mo'er's life, what reason does he have to worry about?

Because he knew that in the future, there would be no more friendship between the Xinyang Palace and the General's Mansion. He even owe the General's Mansion.

His life was saved by Mu Ziyan. Now, the General's Mansion has let Chu Mo'er go. He owe the General's Mansion.

And because of this, the Xinyang Palace was destined to bear the reputation of betrayal.

….

The third day after Chu Mo'er was sent to Zhuangzi, the envoys of Wuzhen Kingdom were finally ready to return to Wuzhen Kingdom, and memorials were also sent to the north. The northern border has been very restless recently, and the people on the border have been constantly distracted, causing panic among the people in Licheng.

After Emperor Jiaxuan discussed with the court officials, he decided to send General Mu to Licheng for a few days, and King Xinyang also had to go back to guard the southwest border. Just in time, the Wu Zhen Kingdom was in the southwest direction of Nanyong, so the emperor asked King Xinyang to escort Nanmuqiao and others to the Wu Zhen Kingdom border.

General Mu, King Xinyang and the envoys of Wu Zhen Kingdom left Ancheng on the same day. When he left, Mu Tinglan also went to the city gate to see them off.

Mu Tinglan really prepared a carriage and brought it back to Nanmuqiao as she said. There were a lot of things, including dry food, clothes, books or weapons. The whole carriage was filled in a mess. Nanmuqiao also saw a broken bowl in the middle. If the broken bowl is remembered correctly, it should have been used by them for begging for the years. Nanmuqiao simply didn't know how to express her mood. What did she pick up the broken bowl? Could it be that she wanted him to be a beggar again?

It's simply a beating.

However, even if they wanted to hit someone, Nanmuqiao could not hit anyone, because at that time, they had already left Ancheng for a long time.

Just leaving Ancheng, Nanmuqiao was reluctant to let go and took Mu Tinglan back to Wuzhen Kingdom, but no matter how reluctant he was, he still had to let him go.

After Nanmuqiao and the others left, Ancheng also became quiet.

The people from the Xinyang Palace closed the door and did not meet guests very much. The General's Palace was almost the same. At least, Mu Tinglan and Mu Lingheng refused to see guests, and even Mu Yaoguang and others would not see Mu Tinglan. The reason was naturally that she was weak and needed to rest.

But in fact, Mu Tinglan has always been walking in Ancheng as a man during this period. Not only is she very close to Yan Yonghong, but she occasionally goes out for dinner with Fan Changxi who came to Ancheng, and then opens a restaurant in Ancheng as Lan Muting, as a base for collecting news.

In June, a dam in Jiangnan collapsed. Although it was discovered in time so no one died, more than a dozen people were injured in this incident, not very serious. This incident was not very big, and the people below hid it, but in the end, Lord Liu was stabbed in front of Emperor Jiaxuan.

Why is Mr. Liu? Because Mrs. Liu's family is in Jiangnan, and among the injured people, Mrs. Liu's family is Mrs. Liu's mother-in-law. My mother-in-law was injured or caused by the collapse of the embankment. How could Mrs. Liu sit idly? In the letter, Mrs. Liu's family said that it did not rain for a few days before and after the collapse of the embankment, and the river embankment was re-enforced by the imperial court last year. This year, a hole collapsed without raining. If it rained heavily, the entire town would not be flooded. If this matter was not reported, if he went out again, would he become a sinner?

So, Lord Liu went to the imperial study room to find the emperor regardless of the work department.

Then someone was in trouble. The river embankment that had been re-established last year collapsed this year. How bad would this project be? If it weren't for cutting corners or corrupt officials, Emperor Jiaxuan himself wouldn't believe it. So the emperor was furious, and the people from the Ministry of Works were scolded and punished. After that, he had to thoroughly find out what was going on. In order to prevent them from bullying their superiors and concealing their subordinates, the emperor directly sent the sixth prince to Jiangnan to check the truth.

This was the first time that the sixth prince accepted the task assigned by the emperor and participated in the government affairs. Not only was the civil and military officials in the court shocked the whole court, but the sixth prince himself was also surprised. However, this was a good thing for the sixth prince, so the sixth prince would not refuse. So the sixth prince took his people to Jiangnan.

During this period, the sixth prince had been assassinated several times, but they were all escaped by the sixth prince. However, the sixth prince was still injured. After clearly checking that it was the local officials who had greed for the money to strengthen the river embankment and used inferior products as the best, the sixth prince brought a group of relevant personnel back to Ancheng to pay the service. When he was about to arrive in Ancheng, the sixth prince was assassinated again and was seriously injured. Only one of the officials involved in the case was killed. So the sixth prince was really lucky and met Gu Heng, who was taking people to investigate nearby bandits, and then was rescued by Gu Heng.

Although the relevant personnel were almost killed, there was another person who survived. Although he didn't know much about this survivor, he knew the basics of greed in Jiangnan and explained it very clearly. After that, the official naturally could not escape death. Even if the other dead people died, they would be blamed, and their families would be punished and exiled.

The sixth prince successfully investigated the matters in Jiangnan, so he received the emperor's reward. At this point, he officially began to participate in the government affairs.

These made the third prince very angry because most of the people in Jiangnan were his people, and half of the people who were killed were also his people. Of course, he sent out the killers, just because they were worried that those people would say things they shouldn't say. As for who the other half were, there were the second prince and others.

Because of this incident, the emperor was very worried about the situation in Jiangnan. In addition, the Sixth Prince was really good at doing things. During the investigation of the case, he went to see the river embankments again, and many problems were found. The emperor ordered the Ministry of Works to re-reinforce all river embankments in Jiangnan. If any greed is found, the Minister of Works will have to go home to support the old age. In addition, he appointed Dingyuan Hou Su Huaide to supervise the work and ensure the quality of the project.

In mid-July, the Ministry of Works completed the task of strengthening the river embankment in Jiangnan.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, August was already coming.

In August, the weather can no longer be described as hot. The whole world is like a big stove, and Mu Tinglan also moved into the attic.

This year, Nanyong's summer is a little hotter than in previous years, and it also rains less. At least, the rainfall in Jiangnan this year is 10% less than in previous years, but there is no drought disaster. Anyway, there is no shortage of water in Jiangnan, so it has not caused much problem. However, the situation in the north is a bit serious, especially in the northwest, and the northwest has not rained for more than a month, and the situation is not good.

In mid-August, it finally rained in Ancheng.

This rain instantly dispelled the heat by seven or eight minutes.

But this rain has been falling for a long time, and it has not stopped for two or three days.

And the rain in the south of the Yangtze River is even heavier.

When people in a small town in Jiangnan saw this situation, they had already begun to instruct the people below to start taking action. The first thing they went to was near the river embankment and then began to spread rumors. The right thing was to spread rumors, otherwise no one would believe that there would be a flood coming soon. Naturally, few people would believe it at the beginning, but the rain was getting heavier and heavier and there was no intention of stopping. The local people suddenly became panicked. Some people who were afraid of death lived in low-lying areas and had already started to take their families and homes to high places.
To be continued...
