Chapter 383 C-character Juan Xiyuanzi

  Get into the carriage and go to the garden.

  Two months before Feng Ziying left, construction on the garden had already started, and it has been almost a year now. No wonder Liu Xianglian and the others were anxious.

If more than one hundred thousand taels of silver were thrown in, a big hole could be smashed in the mud. It has been almost a year, but there is still no benefit at all, and there are constant expenses, which is uncomfortable for anyone. .

From Xianyifang to Nanxunfang, either you have to go around the north side to go to Mingyufang, Jiqingfang, Zhaohui Jinggongfang, Baodafang, or you have to go south, go to Fucaifang, Dafang For Shiyongfang, the distance is almost the same.

On weekdays, I travel more to the south. After all, most of the yamen of the Sixth Ministry, the Three Law Departments, and the Fifth Army are located here, so today Feng Ziying let the carriage go around the north. It has been a long time since I walked around the capital city. No land is a little strange.

After the carriage passed Mingyufang, it walked on Chongguosi Street, then detoured around Xinghua Temple Hutong, and finally went around Huangqiang North Street until it reached the gate of Wanping County Yamen, and then continued westward until it reached Tianshi'an Grassland and turned again. Going south, walking for a while and then turning west, I saw that elegant and elegant house.

  Feng Ziying was a little surprised, "Where is that?"

"That's the Shijing Garden. The garden of Shi's family, the Duke of Shu, was originally the garden of Zhu Neng, the Duke of Cheng in the Ming Dynasty. After the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Zhu family of the Duke of Cheng declined, but he still refused to sell the garden. , and the mansion bestowed by Lord Shan Guo is next to this garden. A few years ago, the Shi family took over this garden. It is said that it is going to be ready for renovation, but..."

Liu Xianglian is familiar with the scenery in Beijing. She runs around the city all day long, not only wants to be on the stage, but also thinks about tossing her own theater one day, in order to spend less money and do more. So a pair of legs also ran all over the city.

  Feng Ziying knew what Liu Xianglian's words meant.

  The Duke Shi’s family is in trouble now.

  What Shi Guangjue has done, especially the two hundred thousand taels of silver he embezzled, is enough to send the entire Shi family into hell.

   Corruption of ink is not a problem. These days, being an official for thousands of miles is only for making money. Which official doesn’t want to make money?

But making money requires both rules and standards. You, Shi Guangjue, dared to make two hundred thousand taels of silver when you took office as the commander-in-chief of Ningxia town. The filial piety given to you by materials, any crime should be executed.

That's all, as long as you don't cause any trouble, and you are found out by the censors, with your status as an honorable duke, no matter how much the Supreme Emperor and the Emperor will give you a little bit of shame, it's nothing more than demoting your job for the people , Deprivation of the title is enough.

But now you have created such a big rebellion in Ningxia, um, and even involved Gansu Town. In order to solve the rebellion in Gansu Town in Ningxia, the court probably spent several million taels of silver in total. This is not counting the countless civilian casualties.

  You said that under such circumstances, how can your Shi family get away with it?

  The censors themselves hate these warriors the most, even if they have nothing to do, they have to find out the faults. Now, how can the Metropolitan Procuratorate let the meat on the chopping board go?

Although I don't know what is going on with Shi Guangjue's case, but before leaving Ganzhou, Yang He asked his censors to start an investigation in Ningxia Town. There was a storm.

  The Metropolitan Procuratorate started to investigate the whereabouts of the 80,000 taels of silver that Shi Guangjue sent back from Ningxia Town in the early stage. It is said that a servant next to the Supreme Emperor has been involved, so there is not much movement for the time being.

   But Feng Ziying knew that this matter was not so easy to settle, even if the emperor wanted to hold this matter down, the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate would not let it go easily.

  These censors are all iron-headed, as long as they believe in something, they must make a lot of effort, whether it is for the royal family, martial arts, or Long Jinwei, they are even more interested.

  If he can be demoted to go out because of this, his reputation among scholars will definitely increase a bit, and he will have another chance to be promoted when he comes back in the future.

  Feng Ziying even heard about Master Qiao's headache.

   You say that this group of people are stunned, and they are impartial and selfless on the surface, but sometimes they ignore the overall situation.

But for the censors, the overall situation is not their consideration, they only need to perform their duties, so this requires a few capable Du Yushi, Deputy Du Yushi, and Qiandu Yushi to control the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Otherwise, with the current official atmosphere, the more than one hundred censors would have to turn Da Zhou upside down.

Feng Ziying glanced at Liu Xianglian in surprise, Liu Xianglian felt it immediately, smiled and said: "The long history of King Zhongshun invited me to Mingyue Tower to cooperate with Jiang Qiguan the other day, and I accidentally talked about it. By the way, the second master Bao of the Jia family is also there,..."

  Feng Ziying shook her head. The Zhongshun Palace didn’t seem to be a peaceful place. Such secrets actually came from the Zhongshun Palace. Either King Zhongshun deliberately released it, or King Zhongshun was arrogant.

  But I have to say that Liu Xianglian is doing well in Beijing now, and I just learned about this kind of news from Lian Guoshi, but Liu Xianglian actually knew it faster than herself.

   "Is there anything else?" Feng Ziying also knew that this time the Ningxia Battle might have some impact on the Wuxun group. I am afraid that they will not be able to get rid of the involvement of the Duke Shi's family and the Stallion Ma's family.

"Of course there is also that General Ma Xiama, who was taken back to Beijing by Long Jinwei and directly sent to prison." Liu Xianglian said with a smile: "It is said that more than 100,000 taels of silver bills were divided into several money shops. Yinzhuang, Long Jinwei checked each one, and it is estimated that many people will be involved. Ma Shang, the head of the Ma family, entered the palace early to plead guilty. It is said that he knelt outside the palace for a long time. The emperor comforted him and only said that he would find out. Handle it impartially, and then went to the Supreme Emperor to see the Supreme Emperor, but the Supreme Emperor did not see him,..."

  Feng Ziying shook her head. He wasn't sure what about the Ma family, but the Shi family might not escape bad luck. Even if they could borrow money, how could they get the money?

   It's just that these tactics are not long-term solutions, and they are not suitable for frequent use. Even the emperor acquiesced in the actions of Qiao Shi and Yang He in Zhejiang last year, which also caused a lot of reactions.

  After all, the people involved were all gentry officials. If there were really one or two, it would be reasonable, but dozens of officials were involved, and they were all punished for corruption and dereliction of duty. This will inevitably arouse the vigilance and reaction of the gentry officials.

   While thinking about it, he has already arrived at the edge of the garden. When he got off the car, he saw the gate of the sea and the sky, which is already quite impressive.

  But he saw that Xue Pan was looking inside with his arms crossed, dancing with a folding fan, sweating profusely, and he seemed to be pointing the country.

  Liu Xianglian also shook her head, and said in a deep voice: "I have taught this guy a lesson, and he has changed a lot, so he can be useful in guarding the house."

   "Taught me a lesson?" Feng Ziying stood still in surprise, "How did he provoke you?"

Liu Xianglian curled her lips contemptuously, "This fellow has been chasing bees and butterflies all day long, playing tricks in this theater troupe, and he is not easy to talk to because he is the boss. One day he annoyed me, and it was a good fight. This guy is a man of temperament. After being beaten and going home to sleep for a few days, he became more sober, and he no longer acts as a monster in this team. I ordered some things, and he can do them. I guess he The family beat him too."

  In the past six months, Liu Xianglian has searched for many roles and set up a team that should not be small.

  He himself is quite famous, and he is very skilled on stage. Naturally, some people are willing to follow him. In addition, he has invested a huge amount of money in the operation of such a large theater under the market, and he is also seen by interested people.

   Once you come and go, you will gain some fame, and some small troupes are willing to cooperate. When this theater opens in the future, you can also come to perform one or two performances.

"Hey, Dalang, you're finally here!" Finally seeing Feng Ziying, Xue Pan was overjoyed, and ran over all at once. The joy and excitement were expressed in words and from the heart, which surprised Feng Ziying. There are also some touches.

  "Brother Wenlong, long time no see?" Feng Ziying met the other party, "It seems that Brother Wenlong has been here all this time, do you feel that life is more fulfilling?"

"Hey, it's not all Liu Erlang who is tossing brother like this. I said that I am not made of this material. He asked me to stand here as a Bodhisattva, saying that these craftsmen can always restrain themselves. Don't let They ruined our old things here." Xue Pan was also helpless, "My sister also urged me all day long, and said that most of the money was paid by our family. I think so, let's take a look if there is nothing left and right,..."

"Brother Wenlong, it would be a good thing if he could take care of his heart and mind." Feng Ziying also smiled, "This theater costs so much, if you can't make money in the future, then your Xue family will suffer a lot, and my reputation, Feng Ziying, is also bad. Well, Brother Liu's reputation has also been lost, so it's really three losses,..."

   A group of people walked in a circle, talking and watching.

  Feng Ziying also found that it was really extraordinary. The hundreds of thousands of taels of silver was worth it. The original stage was at least doubled in size, and all the surrounding auditoriums were demolished and rebuilt.

  The two-story arc-shaped pedestal has been completed, all of which are large wooden beams, vermilion lacquer and green tiles, forming a circle of pedestals.

   Behind it is the ancient cypress forest, and there is also a lotus pond, and there is actually a water pavilion in it.

The cool breeze comes slowly, passing along this arc-shaped corridor, it is simply a first-class place to enjoy the cool air. The second floor is the so-called Accord private room, and there is a circle of corridors at the back end, and distinguished guests can use the stairs from the rear corridor. Enter each private room.

  Feng Ziying made a rough calculation, and there are ten or twenty private rooms on the second floor, and the downstairs and the venue are all so-called scattered seats, which are used to accommodate ordinary guests.

   "When is the opening expected to be completed?" Feng Ziying put her hands behind her back and nodded slightly. It really took a lot of thought. From planning and design to completion of construction, it can be completed in one year, which is really not easy.

   "Uncle Hui, it is expected to open in October." A voice came from the side. After Feng Ziying was stunned, she saw that Jia Yun slightly cupped her hands, and her brows were full of shrewdness and gratitude.
