Chapter 689: , Retiring
Chapter 689, retiring
The army rations were burned, and the emperor was furious. All officials involved in the transportation of rations were arrested.
Not only that, the first restaurant in Beijing, the main home of Baxianju, the Anguo Government was surrounded by the Imperial Guard on the same day, and all personnel, men and women, were sent to the prison of the Ministry of Justice.
At this point, all civil and military officials looked at and stunned.
Looking to the time when the Anguo government was besieged, many people were scared into a cold sweat, especially those officials who were close to the Anguo government.
Those who can serve as officials in Beijing are not stupid people. The emperor copied the Anguo Mansion without saying a word. Fools can guess that this might be related to the Eight Kings.
The Royal Palace.
The emperor turned his face calmly and looked at the secret letter copied by the guard from the Anguo government.
Now the war in northern Xinjiang is still deadlocked, he didn't want to clean up the Eight Kings' party feathers in the capital at this time, so as not to cause turmoil in the court.
After all, many of these people are in high positions.
But he did not expect that these unrequited things would dare to take risks at this time, leaking the route of transporting rations to the old eight, and even the rations of the Northern Xinjiang army were burned.
The soldiers can fight without food?
Admiral read all the letters, and found no other list of the Eight Kings of the party feathers. I was very dissatisfied with this.
Although Baxianju had been monitored by Jin Lingwei a long time ago, there were too many officials coming in and out. In order not to provoke a horror, there were not many Bawang party feathers who could be sure.
Now that he wants to clean up, he must clean up thoroughly this time, and he won't let any of the eighth people go!
"An Guogong is an old treacherous and cunning man. It is impossible for him to check carefully. The Guogong Mansion and all the properties of his family in the public and secretly will be checked. I don't believe that nothing can be found. ."
Wei Qi retreated, and as soon as he left the hall, he ran into Yang Chenghua and Wu Jingyi who had come to discuss with the emperor. The three clasped each other's fists and quickly separated without saying a word.
Before entering the hall, Yang Chenghua and Wu Jingyi looked at each other, and the emperor actually sent Wei Qi out, which shows that he was really angry this time.
Not only the emperor, but also them, when thinking of the burnt food, the heart drips with blood.
Although there have been no particularly serious disasters in the past two years, there is still a general shortage of water in the north. In many places in the south, there will still be floods when the rainy season comes. The levied grains are all hard-grown by the people. For this reason, I don’t know how many people there are Tighten your belt and live your life.
It’s been burned now!
How can we not make people angry and heartache? !
The two entered the main hall and saw the emperor whose face was dripping with water, his back bends a bit again.
"The emperor, the frontier soldiers must not be short of food. Now that the military ration is burned, you have to quickly find a way to refill it." Wu Jingyi bit his scalp and said about the purpose of coming, and then stood with his head down, not daring to make a sound.
The emperor was silent and did not speak. After a while, he asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"
Wu Jingyi did not answer, but looked at Yang Chenghua.
Yang Chenghua was helpless, hesitated for a moment, and said with some difficulty: "I am afraid that we can only expropriate food again. It is best to encourage large families to donate food."
The emperor has no other good way: "Just do it."
Compared with the previous pushbacks when donating medicinal materials, the officials are much more active in donating food this time.
No way, no one dares to touch the emperor's mold at this time.
Especially after the Ministry of Criminal Affairs announced that An Guogong was the leader of the Eight Kings Dangyu in Beijing, and that the Baxianju was the base of the Eight Kings Dangyu in Beijing, many officials were awake at night.
In just a few days, many second- and third-grade official residences were surrounded, and males were arrested and imprisoned.
Yongjia Houfu.
Ms. Dong is finishing the dowry for Dong Yuanyao. After returning to Beijing from Zhongzhou, the family told her daughter a marriage, which was Luo Hongyuan, the youngest son of Lord Wei Guo.
Mrs. Dong was actually not very satisfied with this marriage. Luo Hongyuan was spoiled since he was a young child, and his temperament was not very good. His daughter is also stubborn. If there is a bump between them after getting married, neither of them will be soft. People, how are you going to live this life?
Hey.
Madam Dong was still worried about Dong Yuanyao’s relatives. At this time, the maid beside the old lady Dong came over: "Second Madam, Mrs. Luo from Weiguo Gongfu is here. Now she is in the old lady’s house, saying that she has something to say. ."
Ms. Dong constricted her eyebrows, because the army rations were burned and the Anguo government was copied, and now all honored guests are tacitly thanking guests behind closed doors. How could Mrs. Luo come here at this time?
"You go talk to Yuan Yao and ask her to change clothes to meet the guests in the old lady's courtyard."
Ms. Dong and the maid gave an order, and then moved to Mrs. Dong's side.
On the other side, Dong Yuanyao heard the news of Mrs. Wei Guo’s coming, but she said faintly, still embroidering her purse.
"Girl, come back and embroider again. It's not easy for Mrs. Luo to wait." The maid reminded anxiously.
Dong Yuanyao ignored it, but stopped after finishing the last stitch, then slowly got up: "Let's go."
The maid stopped for a while: "Girl, let's change into the clothes to meet the guests."
Dong Yuanyao looked down at what she was wearing: “I think it’s good, isn’t it not good for people to wait for a long time? If you want to change your clothes before going back, people should go.”
said, he stepped out of the room first.
The maids had no choice but to quickly follow up.
As soon as Dong Yuanyao arrived at the gate of Mrs. Dong’s courtyard, she saw Mrs. Wei Guogong leading a group of maids and women walking out quickly.
Seeing Dong Yuanyao, Mrs. Wei Guogong was taken aback for a moment, and then left without saying a word.
Dong Yuanyao condensed her eyebrows and raised her step into the yard. Then she saw her mother standing at the door with flushed eyes, an angry look.
Soon, Dong Yuanyao knew what had happened.
She was retired by the Weiguo Government!
Dong Yuanyao was startled, looking at the angry mother and grandmother, there was no shame in her heart, on the contrary, she was a little bit happy.
Finally, there is no need to marry!
That night, everyone in the Dong family knew about the resignation of the Weiguo government. Apart from sympathizing with Dong Yuanyao, everyone was full of doubts.
Why did the government of Weiguo want to withdraw from relatives?
Dong Yuanxuan glanced at his father, his expression somewhat solemn.
The first son of Weiguo Gongfu is the commander of Jingwei, who is well informed. Could it be that they have received any news? This is how you hurriedly separated from your family?
Dong Jiancheng also thought of this, thinking of the people implicated in the case of Anguo during this period, he quickly looked at the old Hou Ye and the son: "Father, brother, our family has no contact with Anguo, right?"
Master Hou surely shook his head: "Of course not. I don't even go to Baxianju very often."
Dong Jiancheng breathed a sigh of relief, but the breath had not completely subsided, and when he saw his half-brother's eyes dodge, he quickly raised it.
"Brother, you don't have one."
Before he could speak, Dong Jianye interrupted hurriedly: "Of course I don't have any."
Looking at him like this, Dong Jiancheng and Dong Yuanxuan's anxiety became more and more growing.
The next day, the premonition that father and son had a bad feeling came true.
Yongjia Houfu is surrounded by officers and soldiers!
All the males of the Dong family were taken away, and the female family members ordered not to leave the Dong’s mansion.
At this time, Dong's House was in chaos.
