After being reborn as Wang Baochuan's sister, she decided not to persuade her

Chapter 79 Every point is a lot

Wang Baochuan asked, "What bet?"

Wang Baochuan's little face was filled with anger. She didn't understand why her second sister, who had always supported her, suddenly changed her attitude and looked down on Xue Pinggui instead. However, this did not prevent her from believing that Xue Pinggui would win the election.

If in the past, Wang Baochuan believed that Xue Pinggui could win the imperial examination because she admired Xue Pinggui and beauty is in the eye of a lover, she naturally felt that Xue Pinggui was good at everything, and believed what he said that he was "cultivated by both writing and sword". But now, she is ignorant of Xue Pinggui.

The blind belief faded a bit. She felt that Xue Pinggui would win the election, but she analyzed it calmly.

Why was it successful?

Xue Pinggui traveled thousands of miles to come to the capital for this purpose. He had failed many times in the past because of the prevalence of cheating in the examination room, and he could not compete with it based on his own talents. However, now, since this imperial examination is extremely fair,

Then as he said, if you are full of knowledge, you will definitely pass the exam.

Wang Baochuan still somewhat trusts him. Although she has little contact with Xue Pinggui and has never seen him studying poetry and books, she was born in a wealthy family and has only been in contact with famous gentlemen from high-ranking families in Chang'an City.

She had seen a lot of talented people. Wang Baochuan felt that Xue Pinggui's elegant demeanor made him look like a scholar at first glance, so he couldn't deceive anyone at all.

Furthermore, Xue Pinggui went around in such a big circle, concealed the truth, planned carefully, and made so many twists and turns, he must have been full of ink.

Wang Yinchuan said, "How about a bet on Jinchaizhai's newly bought gold Dongzhu from the Hu people?"

"good!"

A set of jewelry is innocuous.

Wang Yinchuan picked up the tea cup with a faint smile on his lips.

In Chang'an City, in front of the Chaomen Gate, some people were flustered and restless, while others clapped their hands and cheered.

On the day when corrupt officials were beheaded, many people went to see them. The people who had oppressed and exploited them in the past also became wailing, trembling, and trembling with fear. However, the people did not feel pity, they just felt relieved.

A total of twenty-three people were beheaded, all related to this cheating incident.

In the cheers of the people, the blood of corrupt officials flowed all over the ground. The city of Chang'an, which had been dull for a long time, was greeted with cheers and cheers. From the middle of the day until the sky was filled with red clouds, a loud voice rose above the sky.

With one sound, all the dissatisfaction was vented.

On that day, Wang Yun told the emperor about his donation in the morning. In the afternoon, he took the ten thousand taels and delivered them to Tai Chi Palace in person. Others followed suit and donated a lot. In the end, as expected,

As Wang Yinchuan guessed, the total amount was 530,000 taels.

On the fifth day after Ruan Qingzhu took office as the Minister of Household Affairs, the military expenditures applied for by the Chang'an Military Camp were finally released, totaling 50,000 taels.

The military expenses were delivered to the military camp personally by the Minister of Household Affairs, and they were every penny. There was no greeting fee or hard work fee.

"Isn't it okay not to take it?" Wang Yinchuan laughed, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

"Since habits are formed, they are difficult to change. This time it must be because they beheaded dozens of people at the gate a few days ago. During this period of time, they have been living with their tail between their legs." Wei Ting said, "After this period of time, they will return to their old ways.

"

Wang Yinchuan, "The issue of asking for peace has a long history, and the problem of almost six ministries is that there are too many people, and the law does not punish them all. Your Majesty can only mention it a few times, and even if you issue a decree, it will have no effect." Your Majesty is generous and kind, but the emperor

There is no need to be too soft-hearted. Without some toughness and determination, this chaotic officialdom would not be so rampant.

"The Minister of the Ministry of Finance is so leisurely. The Ministry of Finance has just changed the minister, and there are so many things to do between the two officials. How can he have time to go to the military camp?" Wang Yinchuan's fingers brushed over a line of words on the scroll, his brows furrowed, and he was speechless.

He laughed, "In the past, I'm afraid not many of the official documents you submitted were delivered to Chen Zhengdao himself. Most of them were stopped by the Minister of Household Affairs."

In Wei Ting's confused eyes.

Wang Baochuan asked, "Did you go to see him?"

"Yes." Wei Ting nodded.

"That's it."

Wang Yinchuan frowned and suddenly realized something.

Wei Ting, "?"

Wang Yinchuan said, "Don't forget your identity."

"You mean..."

Wang Yinchuan nodded, put down the book in his hand, and stood up, "He didn't deduct the greeting fee, he was clearly here to complain. I can almost imagine his expression when he said 'every penny is not a penny', he must be very heartbroken. I

Dad has been claiming to be ill these past few days and has not seen anyone. He wants to use your relationship to test my father's intentions."

"Ruan Qingzhu is a pure man. When he was the Minister of Rites, he would not allow his subordinates to deduct fees at will. Now that he is the Minister, the same is naturally true. The Minister of the Ministry of Husband is probably here to complain."

Wei Ting was a little surprised, "My lady is very thoughtful. I just thought they didn't dare to do anything in the past few days. I didn't expect there was this level."

"There are many things you can't think of. You should be more cautious in the future." Wang Yinchuan said and asked the maid to bring him a cloak and pack himself up properly. "Prepare the car. I have to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. He has also been with me in the past few days.

The military camp avoids suspicion, so he probably doesn’t know about these things, so I have to tell him about this."

"I'll take you there." Wei heard this and was about to stand up.

Wang Yinchuan waved his hand and said, "I will go by myself. You are from the military camp and are not suitable to go."

"I'll come back as soon as I go."

Wang Yinchuan put on her cloak. It was sunset, not too late, and there were still bright lights on the streets. But it was autumn after all, and the chill was coming. She was in a hurry to get out, so she only wore a thin cloak.

When we arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, my hands and feet were a little cold.

"Second Miss!"

"Why are you here so late, Miss Second?"

When the steward of the Prime Minister's Mansion saw Wang Yinchuan, he asked the people below to tie up the horses and asked urgently.

"If you have anything to do with my dad, where is he now?"

"study."

"good."

After getting off the carriage and walking a few steps, Wang Yinchuan finally regained his composure. Wang Yinchuan walked quickly to the Prime Minister's study.

"father!"

"Why are you here all of a sudden?" Wang Yun looked at Wang Yinchuan in surprise, "It's so late, what's the matter?"

Wang Yinchuan was still wearing a cloak, revealing only a small face as big as a palm. It must have been blown by the autumn wind, and the tip of his nose was a little red, making him look particularly pitiful and petite.

When people see it, they can't help but feel some love and pity.

Wang Yun walked to the tea table and poured her a cup of hot tea, "If there is anything I need you to come here at this time, I only have so little clothes on. Why, Wei Ting is so poor that he can't even buy you a thick coat."

get up?"

He handed the tea to Wang Yinchuan. After being an official for so many years, he had already developed the composure that would make him miserable even when the mountain collapsed. Wang Yinchuan was not an impatient and reckless person on weekdays.

She usually walks slowly, has a lot of things in her heart, and generally does not show her emotions.
