Hua Zimo asked Yu Deshui who came to visit him, looking very worried.
Yu Deshui nodded, sighed and said: "There was a corruption case in Hangzhou, and many officials were involved. The emperor convened all the ministers to discuss it overnight, and only at dawn selected Wang Rui from Dali Temple to investigate."
"Wang Jiashiro, if he goes, it will be useless for those people to sell their property." Hua Zimo said, his mood relaxed a little.
Yu Deshui said: "Master Lu said the same thing. Originally, Mrs. Mei recommended Huang Shaoyu, and the emperor agreed. Master Lu said that Master Huang has been running around since he took office. He who has worked hard and achieved great results should take a rest."
"Then he recommended Wang Rui. After hearing this, the emperor appointed Wang Rui as an imperial envoy. Taifu Mei was even surprised."
Hua Zimo said with a smile: "Master Lu really dares to promote talents without avoiding relatives. But he has nothing to fear. Huang Shaoyu ran to Jinling before and handled the case of King An, so he has prestige. But he is alone.
Tie Dan, those officials in the south of the Yangtze River may not have the idea of killing everything. But it will be different when Wang Rui goes there. There is a master who is a father, an eldest brother who is a marquis, and a brother-in-law who is a young master... Who are those officials in the south of the Yangtze River?
If they dare to have any rebellious thoughts, the consequences will be as simple as confiscation of their homes and extermination of their clans, so they don’t dare to gamble."
Yu Deshui said: "Isn't it? The emperor later said that he also thought Huang Shaoyu was very suitable at the beginning. He only thought of this when Mr. Lu mentioned Wang Rui. He was also lucky that Mr. Lu stopped him at that time, otherwise Huang Shaoyu would have been broken in Jiangnan.
, he will regret it."
Hua Zimo nodded. He only remembered this level after what Yu Deshui said.
It has to be said that Lu Yunhong has a thorough understanding of the officialdom than any of them. He is really scheming. In another twenty years, I am afraid that no one in the court will be able to match him.
This is exactly what he is worried about.
"Hasn't the eldest princess entered the palace recently?"
Yu Deshui nodded.
Hua Zimo was silent, suddenly not knowing what to say?
Xu Xiujun served them tea and some snacks, all of which she made herself.
Huazimo usually likes to eat, but today he didn't move and just let Yu Deshui eat a piece.
Yu Deshui ate a piece. It was very soft and sweet and glutinous in the mouth. It was very good. But he was not greedy for more. He ate a piece and didn't move again.
Huazimo also rushed him and said: "Go and serve the emperor quickly. While you are away, those little eunuchs are trying to get in. They are all seeking power, and few of them are really here for the emperor. Not with you."
Same."
Yu Deshui said: "You should take good care of your health. I listen to the emperor. He wanted to go to the palace when the Lu family held a happy event. Do you still remember when we accompanied the emperor to the Lu family? I really miss that time.
, you protected me from any mistakes I made and didn’t let me get scolded.”
Huazimo smiled and said: "What kind of temperament do you have that you still make mistakes? I know you want to help me, but you can't help me with this matter. Don't hurt yourself."
"Go back quickly, don't leave the emperor busy alone, there is not even anyone around you who can use it smoothly."
Yu Deshui nodded, stood up and left, saying that he would see him again next time.
Hua Zimo waved his hand and urged, as if he didn't care.
But Xu Xiujun sent Yu Deshui out, and when she came back, she found that Hua Zimo's eyes were already red...a man was looking in the direction of the door sadly.
She sighed, turned around and went out to fetch water, preparing to take a handkerchief to wash it off and put it on his eyes.
…
In the evening, Xu Xiujun sent several pots of orchids to Qinzheng Hall.
It's February, and the orchids are about to bloom, lush and green, and they look very pleasant.
Among them is a pot of Sixi butterflies. Because they were well raised in the greenhouse, they all have flower buds.
Yu Deshui thinks that if it is placed in the emperor's inner palace, it will open soon, and then there will be a faint fragrance of orchids in the room, which the emperor will definitely like.
However, for the sake of caution, they were placed in the outer hall on the first day. The flowers and plants in the outer hall will be changed every few days, including green plum blossoms in bloom and rare hexagonal white flowers.
When the emperor was in a good mood, he would water them and ask the eunuch to take them out to bask in the sun. When he was in a depressed mood, he was in charge.
For example, today, there was a new case in Jiangnan, and Yu Deshui felt that the emperor was not in a good mood.
But to his surprise, he saw the pot of orchids.
To be precise, he saw the orchid pot, with a simple and elegant glaze, and a red goldfish painted on it. The goldfish was fat, round and cute, but it didn't match the orchid at all.
Yu Deshui was secretly cursing his mistake when he heard the emperor ask: "Who sent this?"
Yu Deshui did not mention Xu Xiujun and quickly replied: "Eunuch Hua sent it."
The emperor sneered lightly and said calmly: "Move the orchids out and plant them, and ask the craftsmen to make me a fish tank according to this. I want to raise fish."
Yu Deshui: "..."
"twitter."
Yu Deshui didn't quite understand why the emperor fell in love with that flowerpot at first. Later, when he went out with the flowerpot in his arms, he happened to meet the prince coming.
The prince clamored for it and said that the goldfish was very beautiful and looked a bit like the ocean picture album given to him by his adoptive mother.
Then he looked at it carefully and said: "It's not very similar, but more like Teacher Pei's paintings."
After hearing this, Yu Deshui suddenly realized.
Did the emperor initially think that this flowerpot was sent by the Lu family?
Then I heard that it was sent by Hua Zimo, and I thought that Hua Zimo was trying to figure out his thoughts, and I became even more unhappy.
After understanding it, Yu Deshui went to see Hua Zimo. As soon as he entered the door, he heard Hua Zimo reprimanding Xu Xiujun: "Do you think I will be grateful to you if you do this? You don't know anything, but you are so smart, it is simply disgusting. If it weren't for the emperor,
I have already driven you out of the palace according to the will of the emperor, how can I keep you here?"
Xu Xiujun couldn't reply and stood aside with an indifferent expression.
Yu Deshui walked in, and Xu Xiujun looked back at him, a look filled with resentment and disgust.
This is really a naked provocation. Who does she think she is? Is she the emperor's woman?
Or the princess?
Yu Deshui sneered in his heart, thinking that no wonder the emperor asked the craftsmen to make a new one. The emperor would be disgusted if he took this woman's things, right?
Yu Deshui said coldly: "Miss Xu, I'm just here to tell you, don't be so smart."
"The emperor likes these gadgets, that's because the prince likes them. The emperor also said that he would let the craftsmen make one to raise fish for the prince to play with. As for the orchids in the flower pot, the emperor didn't even take a look at them."
After hearing this, Xu Xiujun raised a contemptuous smile at the corner of her mouth.
She moved her fingers, what did she want to express? But thinking that if she couldn't express herself clearly, she would only make a joke, so she left angrily.
Hua Zimo was so angry that she coughed and said sadly: "Look, look, who does she think she is?"
Yu Deshui looked at Xu Xiujun's leaving figure, frowned, and murmured: "Yes, who is she?"
Huazimo said displeased: "Why don't you mention it to the emperor and send her out of the palace? What's the point of staying with me like this?"
Yu Deshui said angrily: "If you really cheated on her, that would be the best punishment for her."
Hua Zimo thought he heard wrongly and said in disbelief: "What are you talking about?"
Yu Deshui knew that he had made a mistake, so he said: "It was just a moment of anger."
Hua Zimo thought deeply and then said: "If this can help the emperor solve his troubles, why wouldn't I want to?"
"What makes me feel embarrassed now is that I can't guess the emperor's thoughts. Even the eldest princess doesn't enter the palace, and there's no one to discuss it with."
After hearing this, Yu Deshui felt pity for Hua Zimo and said, "How about this? When Mr. Lu enters the palace, I can ask him how he is doing?"
Hua Zimo sighed heavily. He couldn't think of a way. If Lu Yunhong could find a way, he would have to obey him.
But in this way, there would be nothing in the inner palace and the court that Lu Yunhong didn't know about.
"Let's wait for a while." Hua Zimo said, he still wanted to see the eldest princess first.
It is most appropriate for the eldest princess to come forward in this matter.
