Chapter 038: What the County Head of Xile County said is true

In the midsummer of July, the scorching sun hangs high all day long, and the cicadas chirping in the morning is endless and the sound of cicadas is unbearable.

Zhuang Xile sat at the desk and frowned slightly. The old lady was a little tired of food this morning and was depressed and unenergized. She specially invited the imperial physician to see that it was because of her spleen and stomach. Because the old lady was old, she didn't want to drink too much medicine soup, she could only drink some hawthorn water.

The imperial physician also said that the old lady's birthday is very rare and she has to take good care of it.

The family was so scared that the people surrounded the yard, and the old lady who was still serving the old lady passed the message to everyone before they left.

Zhuang Yunfei and Zhuang Yunling were arrested by their mother to learn the rules, and Zhuang Xile returned to Linghui Academy.

"Now is the time when the grain in the field is about to be collected up. In theory, grain merchants should be prepared to sell old grain to store new grain, but the price of grain in Kyoto is getting more and more expensive."

He opened his eyes and pulled the small abacus, "We eat 120 mouths a day, and it's really a big consumption."

Zhuang Xile brought a total of 120 Hongfuqu and guards from Jintian City. They solved the meals of these people by themselves. At the beginning, they felt a little tight when they were responsible for the logistics.

Zhuang Xile asked, "I heard that Kyoto is in good weather this year?"

"No, it's just that I just felt unhappy when I went out to buy yesterday."

I opened my abacus and hung it back to my waist, and told me one by one what I saw and heard when I went out yesterday.

"It is said that the rice jars that have been undrafted for the past two years have already reached the bottom. Now they want to sleep in the fields. The grain merchants have determined that the grain collected this year will be less than in previous years, and they are all waiting and watching."

"Some people also say that this day is very strange, I'm afraid it will cause a flood."

Zhuang Xile raised her eyes and asked, "Which grain merchant is the largest in Kyoto?"

"It's a 10,000 grain store."

"Ten Thousand Grain Shopping?"

Zhuang Xile supported his chin, "The boss behind this is such a big ambition."

"The Wanliang Store has only opened in recent years. There are 18 stores in Kyoto, and each of them has abundant food, but it is not cheap."

The news of the flat opening was very clear. Zhuang Xile thought of something and smiled unconsciously. An idea quickly took shape in his heart.

"You ask if there are any farms in the suburbs who want to take action. There is a kind of land that is best to back the mountain. At this time, you can buy it with the unpacked grain together."

"Master, we want to build a farmhouse here?"

Ping Yu was a little panicked. They all expected to go back in a year or two. Master, are you going to make long-term preparations?

"We can't go back for a while, we need to make long-term preparations."

She had a vague guess in her heart and didn't dare to think about it carefully. It would never be wrong to be well prepared.

Besides, with Zhuangzi and his brothers, there will be a place to stretch.

"Can we leave Beijing at will?"

Zhuang Xile chuckled: "The Empress Dowager took me to Kyoto to raise her, but she didn't say she was here to go to jail. Why can't she leave the gate of Kyoto?"

After dealing with this matter, Zhuang Xile was about to ask questions again. The woman in charge of the mansion came in in a hurry and said that the emperor wanted to invite Zhuang Xile to the palace to ask questions, and the servant who sent the order was already waiting.

The three sisters Zhuang Yunshu were followed, especially Zhuang Yunfei and Zhuang Yunling, whose eyes turned red with anxiety.

"Fourth sister, is it for the second young master Liu yesterday?"

Yesterday, Mr. Liu's wrist was dislocated. I think Duke Enguo couldn't swallow this. It was their implicated fourth sister.

"I will know naturally when I go, don't worry, there will be no problem."

Zhuang Xile stood up and comforted the three of them. Then he asked Ping Yu to change her clothes, giving everyone a reassuring look and quickly followed the eunuch into the palace.

The eunuch who led the way did not take her to Fengming Palace but went directly to the imperial study.

Zhuang Liangzheng, standing outside, looked to her with a worried look on his face. Mr. Zhu from the Censorate for half a time ago impeached Zhuang Xile and acted flamboyantly and deliberately hurt others. He relied on the power of the Prince of Xikang to rampantly behave in Kyoto, and did not respect women and did not obey women.

Zhuang Liangzheng and the other people in the banker made a decision and tried their best to do whatever they wanted, but they didn't even find the opportunity to send a message out in advance.

Zhuang Xile nodded to him with a smile and then entered the gate of the imperial study room.

"I've seen the Emperor."

Zhuang Xile stepped forward without looking sideways and saluted the emperor in a regular manner, without any panic on his face.

The King of Yong'an sat aside lazily. When he saw Zhuang Xile's eyes, he looked at him with two points. Today, the censor was prepared and didn't know how this girl would deal with it.

The emperor seemed to be in a good mood. When he saw Zhuang Xile, he not only did not punish him, but also asked what she had done in the palace for two days.

"Back to the emperor, Kyoto is much more interesting than Jintian City, and it's fun."

The emperor glared at her with a majestic look, "Is this a matter for you to impeach you for being arrogant and deliberately hurting others?"

Zhuang Xile widened his eyes in shock when he heard this, looking disbelief, pointing his finger at himself and asked, "Back to the emperor, I'm so obedient that I can't be more obedient than ever after I left the palace in the past two days, so I didn't cause any trouble."

Lord Zhu, who was standing aside, stepped forward and bowed, "Mr. Xile led people to surround Xie's mansion the day before yesterday, and was arrogant person. Yesterday, he hurt Liu Xuchang, the second son of Duke Enguo's mansion, deliberately hurting people."

Zhuang Xile's face was complicated and looked at Lord Zhu like a fool. "I heard that the censor heard the news and the news, and I'm afraid I was impeached without even listening to what the miser said."

As he said that he turned his head and said to the emperor, "The eldest son of the Xie family and his elder brother had a fight on the street due to some trivial matters. Both sides were denied the lottery. Seeing that his elder brother was seriously injured, he was afraid that his elder brother would be injured very much. The elders in the house were also worried and then took people to check on his elder brother's injuries."

"Mr. Xie was grateful to his brother for visiting him because he had done something and apologized with him and shook hands and made peace."

"Mr. Xie was very polite to compensate for the medical expenses. King Yong'an can testify about this."

The eyes of King Yong'an lit up and found it very interesting. This girl was so open-minded and lying with her eyes open and she dared to let him testify. She remembered what he said in the Xie Mansion the day before yesterday. It seemed that she had done many such counterattacks in the southwest.

Speaking of which, he has never given anyone a testimony, which is interesting.

"Emperor brother, I can testify, what the county lord Xile said is true."

With the King of Yong'an as the testimony, the Censor naturally couldn't say anything. Even Xie Wei could only nod awkwardly. He was helpless when the matter broke out in front of the emperor, and his eyes were secretly looking between Zhuang Xile and Yong'an.

Lord Zhu felt cold sweat flowing down from behind. He never expected that the King of Yong'an would stand up and speak today. Seeing that something was wrong, he wanted to stop the army and stand up again under the cough of Duke Eng.

"Since that's the case, why do the county lord need to bring a hundred guards when going out and ride a carriage that does not comply with the county lord's regulations?"

Zhuang Xile lowered his head and sighed faintly, and said to the emperor with a grievance: "In the southwest, I don't know how many people want to kidnap their daughters to threaten their grandfather."

The censor's heart skipped a beat, and the bad feeling became stronger and stronger.
