Chapter 338 When
Mrs. Sheng, the Salt Patrol Censor, heard about Aunt Kang’s experience, she called Mrs. Sheng in front of her and scolded her, telling her to have less contact with Aunt Kang to avoid becoming the target of other people’s ambitions.
It's just that Mrs. Sheng saw that Wang Yue was well-informed and reminded her out of good intentions. However, after Mrs. Sheng was reprimanded, she felt that she was embarrassed because of her age, so she complained to Aunt Kang.
Aunt Kang couldn't find anyone to worry about at the moment. When Madam Shanda said this, Aunt Kang started to hold a grudge.
Within a few days, Wang Yue received the news from the secret guard, saying that Aunt Kang asked the Qi Da steward of the Kang Mansion to find an alchemy Taoist priest and secretly brew some oleander liquid with unknown intentions.
Wang Yue rolled his eyes. He had been influenced by Ah Zi who followed him for a while, and he had learned many methods of poisoning. He also knew a lot about the poison formula.
However, at this time, Wang Yue still felt that those poisons were of no use. It would be better to use the method he learned from the Murong family to repay the poison.
So, Wang Yue ordered someone to pour some of the oleander liquid prepared by Aunt Kang into Aunt Kang's mouth. This amount would only cause coma at most, which meant he wanted to warn Aunt Kang.
But within a few days, Wang Yue received news that Aunt Kang died unexpectedly on the day she was given oleander liquid.
When Minglan got the news, she felt incredible. She knew that Wang Yue would take action, but when she just heard that there was a fire at Aunt Kang's house and her legs were broken at the same time, she thought that the matter was settled like this, but she didn't expect that Wang Yue would take action. Yue actually killed Aunt Kang.
This made Minglan a little confused. Could it be that Wang Yue's benevolent appearance was just an act? She thought of Wang Yue's treatment of Sun's mother and son, but that time he only let them mine for a period of time. Compared with the effect, the man named Sun is now starting to make progress, and he has done good things, but why is he so ruthless this time?
As the person next to him, how could Wang Yue not notice the change in Minglan's expression? After thinking about it for a moment, he understood the reason. He held Minglan in his arms and said with a smile, "It's because you are worried about your mother Kang." Thinking?"
Minglan nodded. She didn't ask clearly about this matter, and it was really uncomfortable to hold it in her heart. She thought about it for a moment, and then she mustered up the courage to say to Wang Yue, "Aunt Kang is indeed hateful, but she can't be guilty of a crime that will lead to death." Wang Yue was a little agitated
. Minglan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Minglan didn't know what Aunt Kang was planning to do. Otherwise, she would definitely be more ruthless than herself. It's just that it had already been done and she definitely couldn't take the blame. He smiled and said, "You don't really think that, I killed your Aunt Kang, right?"
After Wang Yue finished speaking, he saw the look in Minglan's eyes. He was speechless and quickly explained, "Aunt Kang had someone make some When the family peach juice is boiled, I don't know who it will harm, but I think it is very likely to be Old Mrs. Sheng."
Minglan knew that Wang Yue would not be unintentional, so after hearing Wang Yue's words, she sat up directly. There was no longer a gentle look on her face, but there was a hint of cruelty. She asked angrily, "The old lady has nothing to do with her, why would she do this?" Wang Yue glanced at Minglan
, He smiled and said, "It's not like you don't know how much the old lady loves you. After you told the old lady last time, she said she didn't want to embarrass the lady, but she actually gave her a few lectures. Your Aunt Kang When she broke her leg, Mrs. Shanda went to Kang's house. Not long after she left, Aunt Kang started brewing that poisonous juice. Guess who the poisonous juice was prepared for." Minglan was a little frightened, and her whole body was full of blood
. Shaking a little, she asked with some fear, "Why is this happening? Why is it happening like this?"
Wang Yue gently supported Minglan's back and comforted her, and then said, "I'll let Aunt Kang cook it herself." She poured some of the oleander liquid into her own body, but the amount was not fatal at all and would at most cause coma. Why do you think Aunt Kang died?" Minglan's eyes widened and she asked in disbelief
. , "You mean, Uncle Kang did this? I heard that on the day of the accident, he was the first to find Aunt Kang unconscious, but he didn't rescue her." Wang Yue shook his head and said with some uncertainty, "It could
be Him, and the probability is very high, but it’s uncertain, if someone else enters Aunt Kang’s yard first and takes the opportunity to kill Aunt Kang, it’s possible.”
After hearing this, Minglan was silent for a while. He sighed, and then said, "I have heard that Aunt Kang is doing evil at home, abusing her children and concubines. I think these people may seize the opportunity. Revenge."
Wang Yue saw that Minglan looked a little sad, so he quickly comforted him, "Let's not worry about these troubles. You just know that there will never be Aunt Kang again to provoke the eldest lady." Minglan was relieved
. After that, she felt that the matter should be over by then, but what she didn't expect was that within a few days, Minglan's maternal grandmother found the Sheng family and said that Aunt Kang was sending two concubines to Minglan. After that, things happened one after another at home, so Wang Yue was asked to give an explanation.
Sheng Hong was always dwarfed in front of his daughter-in-law's family. Now that he heard that it had nothing to do with the Sheng family, he quickly sent people to Wang Yue's house, called Wang Yue and Minglan over, and asked them to confront him.
Wang Yue and Minglan were not stupid, so of course they couldn't admit that they did it. Besides, they really didn't kill this person.
But Mrs. Wang seemed to have the same temper as Aunt Kang, so she identified Wang Yue and bit her to death, making Wang Yue wonder, did the old lady think he was easier to bully?
However, Wang Yue didn't pay attention to their behavior. After all, it was not the right time to teach them a lesson. What Wang Yue didn't expect was that within a few days, before he could take action, the Wang family would take action against him.
In the court, King Huan reported to the Emperor that the salt tax was somewhat unclear and hoped that the Emperor would order a thorough investigation.
This was a rather hot-button matter. The emperor asked the ministers who was willing to investigate the salt tax, but there was no answer. At this moment, Sheng Hong's brother-in-law suddenly appeared.
The emperor thought that Uncle Wang took the initiative to ask for the imperial examination, so he said with a smile, "It's rare that Wang Aiqing takes the initiative to ask for the imperial examination, so this matter..." After hearing the official's
words, the emperor broke into a cold sweat, and he hurriedly said loudly, "Your Majesty. , I have someone to recommend."
The official rolled his eyes, but the guy gasped and could only ask, "I wonder who you are planning to recommend?"
Brother-in-law Wang smiled sarcastically, and then said in an extremely serious tone, "We should not avoid relatives when promoting talents. We think that Wang Yue, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, is young and promising, and is very suitable to take on this task." With Uncle Wang at the beginning,
almost A person who was close to him, for some unknown reason, immediately stood up to support him, with all kinds of strange reasons.
Immediately afterwards, even Han Xianggong also supported it. Seeing this situation, others recommended Wang Yue, the unlucky guy.
Originally, Wang Anshi was prepared to object when he saw this situation. However, when he saw Wang Yue's calm and calm look, he stopped talking. Other ministers who had good relations with Wang Yue also remained silent.
King Heng looked at Wang Yue apologetically. He originally just raised this issue to let the ministers think of a solution, but who knew it would turn out to be this situation.
All civil and military officials in the dynasty saw this shortcoming, but no one was willing to touch this interest group. Thinking of the reforms presided over by Wang Yue, which were now being carried out with great success, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope, so King Heng did not speak out to object. .
When Wang Yue saw this situation, he knew that this matter could not be avoided. He rolled his eyes and no one asked him what he thought. This unfortunate task fell to him.
In fact, Wang Yue was calm and calm just now. When he heard about Yan Zheng, he subconsciously thought of Dream of Red Mansions.
Sister Lin's father was the censor of the salt patrol, and in the end everyone in the family died. Wang Yue felt that whoever took over this job would be facing the same situation as Father Lin.
It is said that Father Lin died of poisoning. He was thinking that if he traveled to Dream of Red Mansions, he would have to change the ending of Sister Lin.
Just when Wang Yue fell into endless reverie, he didn't expect that the errand would fall on him.
So, I’m telling you, when you’re in a meeting, you have to pay more attention, otherwise, you don’t know what will happen.
After the matter was settled, King Heng felt a little guilty towards Wang Yue. After all, it was their Zhao family that had the power, but Wang Yue had to take risks and reform again and again, so King Heng had to thank Wang Yue again.
But his way of thanking him was very special. He heard that the two beauties Wang Yue gave him were trained to be singers, so he sent several singers and dancers to Wang Yue.
Minglan was very surprised when she looked at the suddenly full private singing and dancing troupe. She asked doubtfully, "What's going on with King Heng? Why did he send you so many more beauties? Is it because the other two beauties have something to do?" "
Wang Yue looked at the worried Minglan and said with a smile, "It's not what you think. King Heng caused a big trouble today, but it fell on me. He feels guilty and wants to express his gratitude."
Ming Lan glanced at Wang Yue suspiciously, and then asked tentatively, "Listen to your description, other ministers know how to hide, why are you next?"
Wang Yue couldn't tell his wife that he was distracted in court. , he could only smile and coax, "Aunt Kang's eldest brother recommended me today, and when the Fujian Road reform was carried out, the ministers offended him, and they all had to stand up to support his opinions, as if I was the only one who could handle this job. It seems like there is nothing I can do."
Minglan's eyes widened when she heard that the court boss was really shameless. She said angrily, "How could they do this? What kind of virtue is Aunt Kang? Who doesn’t understand me? I’m still making things difficult for you like this.”
Wang Yue rubbed Minglan’s eyebrows and said with a smile, “Without the support of the Wang family, Aunt Kang wouldn’t have been able to be so unscrupulous, so I’m going to take revenge in the next court. When the time comes, I will send some of the evidence of Aunt Kang's eldest brother over the years to the Kaifeng Mansion Yamen. I think Mrs. Wang may have to leave Tokyo with her son again." After Minglan heard this, her brows relaxed.
She He nodded and said with a smile, "That's good. With them here, the Sheng family won't be able to live well. It's just that my husband has to deal with the trouble of salt administration, which makes me very uneasy." Wang Yue didn't care
. He waved his hand and said with a smile, "I killed so many people in Quanzhou, it was still a bit of a deterrent. Thinking about those worms, they will still do the same thing. I will continue, you don't have to worry, your father-in-law skills, you Don’t you understand yet?”
