Chapter 424 Chapter 424

My heart sank a little.?   ?

There are many people who know me in Yangzhou Prefecture. Even in this prison, I was imprisoned for so long, and many prisoners had seen me. However, once the emperor and the ministers of Yangzhou were changed, the people below would naturally move with me. This time I was looking for a newcomer.

But unexpectedly, I was hit by someone.

However, I was not panicked. After all, I was so haggard at that time that I was so haggard that I was unkempt every day, but now I am pregnant with Liujia. Although I am poor, I wear clean and tidy clothes, and my people are very different from the past.

So I raised my head and smiled, "I'm joking, this is the first time a private woman has entered the city."

"oh?"

The man looked at me in confusion and said, "My cousin is probably the wrong person. However, the husband of the civilian woman is an honest man and has never done bad things in her life. This time she was implicated and imprisoned. I hope Mr. Cy cousin will take care of him."

After saying that, I took out a ingot of silver and sent it to it. The man's eyes immediately showed a greedy expression. He took it and put it in his arms, saying, "Okay, okay, I will take care of you, go."

"Thank you."

I blessed them, and the few people ignored me and turned around and walked away. I slowly raised my head and breathed a sigh of relief.

I looked up at the familiar iron gate of Yangzhou Prison, and I turned around and prepared to leave.

Just as I turned around, a very light voice came from behind me, and said with a hint of uncertainty: "Yue... Qingying..."

Yue Qingying!

These three words were like a bolt from the blue, and suddenly exploded in my ears unexpectedly, and I was stunned.

I didn’t expect someone to call this name, and I have deliberately avoided the people from the state prefecture, but now, someone recognizes me?

Can't look back!

I subconsciously told myself, pretending to hear nothing and want to continue walking forward, but I heard the voice behind me and said, "Miss Yue... Girl, it's me."

This sound is-

A slightly blurred figure appeared in my mind. I slowly turned around and saw a young man in blue clothes standing behind me, with a look of confusion on his handsome face. When I turned around, a smile appeared on his face: "It's really you, Miss Yue!"

"Young Master Ningyuan..."

.

Perhaps it is because I haven't met people from the past again for too long, especially Yangzhou Prefecture, who led those who were buried in the memories of the depths of their memory until I sat in the accord in the restaurant, and I was still a little dazed.

Wei Ningyuan said with a little joy: "You are still alive!"

I nodded with a smile.

"At that time, when the emperor's dragon boat returned to Yangzhou, we realized that he had other arrangements, but among the people who came back, they never saw you. Later, Zhaoyi told me, you--"

Speaking of this, he seemed to realize something and didn't continue to say anything.

I held the teacup in front of me with both hands and smiled.

There was a little bitterness in the smile.

When people are happy and happy, they always have more tolerance for the past and the injuries they have suffered. So these days I have almost forgotten what kind of purgatory I have gone through, and how I feel so heartless. I originally thought that I could end everything with death, but I didn’t expect that I had been lucky to be reborn, but a person, a word, reminded me of all those things.

Looking at me, Wei Ningyuan was a sensible person and seemed to understand something. He didn't say anything more. As soon as the waiter came in to deliver tea, the two of them fell silent. Until the waiter walked out, the atmosphere was still a little calm.

He seemed to be thinking about how to speak, and I looked at him and smiled: "Now, I'm married."

Wei Ningyuan's face changed a few times.

He is Liu Yi's person and can speak well with Liu Li. In addition, he did not hide many people from the matter in the prefecture. He also knew the relationship between me and the emperor. Now, looking at me with a big belly, he said this again, and understood it. After pondering for a while, he hesitated: "Then——————”

"He is the Emperor."

"..." Wei Ningyuan looked at my quiet face, understood and nodded.

This time I spoke again and asked, "By the way, I don't know that Young Master Ningyuan is now in the Prefecture-"

He smiled bitterly and said, "You have also seen it. Now I am just a small document in the State Prefecture Prison."

I frowned suddenly.

He was Liu Yi's favorite student. When Liu Yi was appointed as the governor of the south, he implemented many policies that benefit the south, including his efforts. Even Pei Yuanhao's later Shiwei in the south was also a contribution. Why did he become a documentary in a prison instead of promotion?

I asked hurriedly, "What's going on?"

He smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know who is the governor of Yangzhou now?"

"Who is it?"

"Yang Ji."

A bump suddenly broke out in my brow.

Yang Ji - Shen Gongyi's nephew. This man was once a minister in the Ministry of Revenue for two years. Later, because he was involved in some corruption cases, he was dismissed by the Supreme Emperor. I just used this as a joke when some concubines were talking about Shen Rou in the harem, but I thought that this man has now been re-official and has become the governor of Yangzhou?!

But after thinking about it carefully, you will understand.

When Pei Yuanhao ascended the throne, Shen Gongyi made great efforts. In addition, the imperial concubine Shen Rou made a new move. In this way, there are traces to fraud in the Yangzhou imperial examination. In addition, Shen Gongyi, a group of old ministers, did not want the court to rebel against Shengjing, nor did he want to depose the untouchable system of the three provinces in Jiangnan, because this would gradually affect their interests, so of course they would not ruthlessly exploit Yangzhou people.

But it was so difficult for Pei Yuanhao to have achieved some achievements in Yangzhou. How could he easily hand over such an important official position to such a person?

I was still confused, and Wei Ningyuan had already smiled bitterly and said, "You must have heard of this person Yang Ji, but I am not willing to join him, so I will be excluded from this."

"hateful!"

Maybe others don’t understand, but over the years, I can see clearly how much effort the imperial court spent to Yangzhou and to suffice the people here. I didn’t expect that the corrupt official would do such a mischief!

Wei Ningyuan continued: "This time, he was arresting the rebel party and quelling public grievances, but in fact, he deliberately arrested the students in Yangzhou who were dissatisfied with Enko's fraud and punished them in the name of rebel party. In this way, no one dared to speak anymore, and that matter was naturally suppressed by him."

I said angrily: "Are you not afraid of arousing public grievances when he does this?"

Wei Ningyuan smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Yue, this is the real south. The opposition between officials and the people has been around since many years ago. It has been like this. The darkness in Yangzhou Prefecture is not something you can think of, or even the emperor who came to the south in person can think of, because what the emperor could hear is what the emperor let him hear, and what the emperor could see is also what the officials did. As long as they deal with it for a while, when the emperor returns to the capital, their methods will be more ruthless, and the people in Yangzhou will be even less afraid to speak, and the situation will be even more chaotic."

I said angrily: "Don't they know that guarding the people is more important than defending the river!"

"This Sichuan is not his family."

I was stunned by this sentence.

Yes, this world is not the officials, or even the court officials who eat the king's fortune and bear the worries of the king, but the Pei family.

He would treat the people of the south as their people, but these people would not.

I asked, "Prince Ningyuan, the emperor treats Lord Liu differently and understands you. Why don't you report the situation here to the court?"

Wei Ningyuan smiled bitterly and said, "When Yang Ji first went to Yangzhou, he was still a clerk, but now he can only go to the prison. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

"It was because they asked someone to send a letter to the capital several times, but they stopped him halfway. Once, they were down one level. To this day, they had already fallen without any reduction, and only this life was left."

“…”

I gritted my teeth.

This kind of country's borer is so arrogant and domineering. The poor Liu Yi and his son's efforts in Yangzhou were exhausted in vain.

Ning Yuan took a sip of tea and sighed: "Now, I just hope that when the emperor goes south, he will have the opportunity to meet the saint. If he keeps this life, he can only use this little. I can't look at Lord Liu's efforts-"

When I heard this, I was shocked: "What did you say? Emperor - I still have to go south?!"

He nodded: "The news has been passed down, otherwise Yang Ji would not have made such a move. However, the emperor's itinerary is still uncertain, so I don't know when he will come again."

I suddenly felt like a thunder flashed through my mind, buzzing, and he could no longer hear what he said.

Pei Yuanhao, he still has to go south...

He is going south!

If he went south, he would definitely go to Yangzhou Prefecture. If that time—

I suddenly shuddered.

At this time, Wei Ningyuan suddenly said, "By the way, I haven't asked you why you went to the prison? Is there anything wrong?"

"Um."

"What's up?"

I didn't answer him immediately, but clenched my fists. Finally, I felt a little strength on my body, and made up my mind and looked up and said, "Young Master Ningyuan, you may have been following Lord Liu for many years. Do you know that Lord Liu once had a third brother, and because his family was poor, he was given to someone else."

Ning Yuan nodded: "I know this. Lord Liu often mentions it in front of Wansheng. I heard that the child still had half a silk handkerchief on him, which was embroidered by Zhaoyi when he was a child, and was counted as a certificate. It was just that the crowd was vast, and now I am afraid it will be difficult to find that child."

As he said that, he glanced at me and said, "Why did you suddenly talk about this?"

I lowered my head, took out a pack of fine cloth from my arms, slowly opened it, took out the slightly yellowed silk handkerchief inside, and carefully spread it onto the table.

Ning Yuan looked at my movements and was puzzled. At this time, when he saw the silk handkerchief and the three dots of water on it, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at me in shock: "This - this -"

I said, "I have found Lord Liu's third brother."

"What, you found it?" Ning Yuan was shocked, and a heart-loving smile immediately appeared on his face, saying, "It's great, where are others? Where are the people?!"

I said, "He is now in the prison of Yangzhou Prefecture, and is locked up with those students."

Ning Yuan froze suddenly.

I continued, "He is my husband, and his name is Liu Saner."

"What?!"

Ning Yuan looked at me with a disbelief expression, and I said to him: "Young Master Ning Yuan, can you help me arrange it and let me meet Yang Ji and not disturb me, it's only me and him."
