When it was approaching Xinping City, the sky was already dark. Generally, the gates will be closed until dark. Yuxi was very worried and said, "This will be delayed for one night. Maybe the general will bring troops into the city after two hours tomorrow morning. The coachman said by the side: "Madam, don't worry, even if the city gate is closed, I can still get in. city. "Mr. Xia specially arranged for him to send his wife off. It must be more than just driving the car.
After arriving at the gate, the gate was indeed closed. But the coachman yelled, saying that there was an emergency military situation and he was going to the capital, and the city gate was soon opened.
This time the coachman and Master Yang have changed positions, the coachman has become a military master, and Master Yang has become a coachman. As for the purple pansy, it has also entered the carriage.
The little head of the city gate had checked the token handed out by the coachman, and then immediately opened the city gate. After going out of the gate, it was very strange to see a carriage, and asked: "Who is in this carriage?" Yucheng often has emergency documents sent to the capital, so as long as there is a token, you can pass.
The coachman said with a cold face, "Don't ask if you shouldn't."
After entering the brace, the coachman took Master Yang to the post. Yuxi and Zijin got out of the carriage halfway, and then went to the prefectural office according to the map. At this time, Zhifu Tan had already fallen asleep.
Yuxi said to the concierge: "Please show this letter to your prefect. He will definitely see me after reading it." After saying this, Zijin gave the concierge some fifty taels of silver.
The concierge heard that Yuxi said it was a matter of urgency, so he didn't dare to delay it, and immediately took the letter in, then closed the door again, and confiscated the money.
Zijin smiled and said, "This is the first time I have seen a silver plug not accepted." See the truth in the subtleties. It can be seen from the fact that the concierge did not collect the cash to deliver the letter, it can be seen that the prefect Tan was a good official.
Zhifu Tan hasn't slept yet, and is reading the files in the bedroom. Seeing a letter sent by the steward, he opened it and read it immediately. After reading it, he said, "Please welcome the guests in."
After a while, Yuxi followed the butler into the prefectural office. Yuxi had already known everything about Tan Tuo before, but it was the first time it was seen.
Zhifu Tan's eyes were very sharp, only one glance at Yuxi and Zijin, he knew it was a woman: "I don't know why the two girls dressed up like this." Both Yuxi and Zijin were dressed in men's clothing.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Prefect Tan, I am the fourth grandmother of the Han family. I have been hearing about the name of Prefect Tan, and I was fortunate to see it today."
Tan Tuo's expression changed, and he asked, "Madam, did something happen in Yucheng?" Tan Tuo's first reaction was to think that something happened in Yucheng. Otherwise, Yuxi, as Yun Qing's wife, would not be able to appear in Xinping City in the middle of the night.
Yuxi said: "Tan Zhifu, please rest assured, the general is very good, and Yucheng is also very good. I came here this time, there is one thing I told the adults."
Knowing that it was not Yun Qing's accident with Yucheng, Zhifu Tan breathed a sigh of relief. But soon, he raised his spirits again and said, "Madam, what can you tell me?"
Zi Jin was puzzled, and asked, "You don't worry, the belief is true, but people are fake?" Zi Jin was a little speechless about Tan Zhifu's crude nerves. I don’t need to verify my identity, I just talk about things like that.
Zhifu Tan smiled and said: "I still have this ability." Yuxi spoke authentic Beijing dialect, and his appearance is similar to what he knows. If you believe it, where can you admit your mistakes. Furthermore, even if he admits wrong, this will be discussed with him, not by him. If it is found that something is wrong, just let someone catch it.
Yuxi smiled helplessly and said, "You think everyone is like you!" This would be Tan Tuo's place.
Zhifu Tan would not be in the mood to chat, and asked, "I don't know why Madam is looking for me?" Yu Xineng came here disguised as a man. It was definitely something big happened.
After saying this, Zhifu Tan immediately asked the steward to guard outside, not allowing anyone to approach him, and then said to Yuxi: "Madam, you can talk now."
Yuxi said, "We have the evidence of the Xu family's treason against the enemy. The general wants to check the Xu family." After a pause, he said to Prefect Tan: "Prefect Tan should know the current situation of the border town, right? Since the beginning of the year. Up to now, the imperial court has allocated 1.8 million silver. But these silvers are only enough for the army's salary, and 100,000 soldiers have no money for the winter supplies."
Zhifu Tan is not stupid, so why don't you know what Yuxi's words mean: "Do you want to check the Xu family and use Xu's money to buy winter supplies?" Seeing Yuxi nodded, Zhifu Tan flatly refused, and said: "Do you know that if you did this, Yun Qing would be dismissed from office, or he would have to be escorted back to the capital for guilt?" Without any approval, Yun Qing dared to take the army to hack his home, and wanted to copy the money that he had copied without permission. Used up, this is a big taboo of the superiors.
Naturally, Yuxi knew that the consequences would be serious. Otherwise, why would she come here on purpose: "So, I would like to ask Zhifu Tan for help in this matter."
Seeing that Yuxi was not frightened by what he said, Zhifu Tan asked, "Madam, what do you want me to do?" He knew that 100% would not be a good thing.
Yuxi talked about her plan. Yuxi's plan is not complicated. I hope that Zhifu Tan will come forward with the matter of looting the house, and then ask Yun Qing to come and assist. Yun Qing did not have the authority to copy Xu's family, but Zhifu Tan had the right to copy Xu's family with sufficient evidence.
Zhifu Tan doesn't need to listen to the next words. With these words, he knows Yuxi's plan: "Doesn't the madam want me to take the initiative to pay the bills and suggest to the prince and Yu Xiang that the money copied from the Xu family should be used for military expenses? "If so, this abacus is too refined. At that time, Yun Qing will not bear any risk, but he will bear all the risks.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Master Tan, my general will not do such a thing." After saying this, she said her thoughts.
Yuxi meant that the Tan Zhifu would come forward to copy the home, but the Tan Zhifu was worried that the Xu family had been in Xinping for so many years and had a huge influence, so he could only ask Yun Qing to lead his troops for assistance. As a result, Yun Qing saw the money and thought of using them to buy winter supplies. After talking about her thoughts, Yuxi said to Zhifu Tan: "My lord, what do you think of me?"
Zhifu Tan asked: "Who came up with this method?" In this way, Yun Qing will be held accountable, but the responsibility is not great.
Yuxi said, "This is what the staff around my husband came up with. My lord, when Xu's family is checked, the money doesn't have to be transported back to Yucheng. It is directly used to pay the Wu's debt. Your lord, what do you think of this?"
Zhifu Tan said, "Madam, do I have a chance to refuse?" Zhifu Tan knew very well that if the money was not given to Yun Qing, he would definitely be taken away by the people above. At that time, there will be little talk about who can enter the treasury. Instead of that, it might as well let Yun Qing buy winter supplies for the soldiers.
Yuxi looked at Tan Zhifu and was not angry, her expression was very calm, and her mood immediately relaxed, and said, "If the adults are not given a chance to refuse, I won't come over." After saying this, Yuxi turned towards Tan Zhifu. Said: "I am replacing the 100,000 soldiers in Yucheng, thank you, sir."
Zhifu Tan felt that the courtesy was ashamed, and said: "It is the wife who is truly selfless. If it were not for the wife, do the orphans of the soldiers and soldiers still don't know where they live?" He admired that for what he did.
Sadness flashed in Yuxi's eyes and said: "I have limited abilities and can only help the orphans, but the orphans of the flat-headed people can't help." In fact, there are more than 500 people in the Citi Kindergarten now. More than one hundred people have been added. Most of the new additions are the mothers who are still alive, but they are unable to raise so many children. Originally it was not allowed according to the regulations, but Mama Qu said that if someone commits suicide for the child to be sent to the Charity Kindergarten, then a good thing will become a bad thing.
After weighing it up, Yuxi gave in as appropriate. If they are really unable to raise their children, they can also be sent to a kindergarten. Of course, the premise cannot be changed.
Zhifu Tan said: "It's hard to come by."
Yuxi asked: "So, the prefect agreed?" Seeing the prefect nodded in response, Yuxi was startled. She thought it would take a lot of talking, but she didn't expect that Zhifu Tan was so easy to talk, and it went so smoothly, which made Yuxi feel a little unreliable.
Zhifu Tan asked, "I don't know when General Yun will arrive? It's best to arrive before dawn. If he arrives before dawn, the Xu family may go out." Once out, it is not easy to catch him. Xinpingcheng said it was small and not too small, and the Xu family had been in business for so many years, it was not difficult to find a hiding place.
Yuxi said, "You should be able to arrive before dawn!" Mr. Xia and Mr. Chen must also know what Prefect Tan can think of, so Yuxi can be sure that Yun Qing will definitely arrive at Xinping City before dawn.
Zhifu Tan stood up and said, "Madam, let me make arrangements." Seeing Zijin blocking his way, Zhifu Tan turned and looked at Yuxi, and said, "Does Madam believe me?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "Why can't you trust an adult, but Zijin is good at martial arts, let Zijin follow you, and the adult's safety is also guaranteed."
Although Zhifu Tan felt uncomfortable, he did not deny it. He said, "Since Madam thinks this is so good, let this girl with purple pansy follow me. However, I hope girl with purple pansy will not speak." Although purple pansy looks like Like a man, but as long as he speaks, he knows that he is a woman.
After hearing this, Zi Jin asked Yuxi, "Madam, what do you do?" Zi Jin couldn't worry about leaving Yuxi here alone.
Yuxi smiled and said, "I'll just wait here. As for my safety, don't worry, is your master here?" After saying this, Yuxi said to Master Tan: "Master Tan, wait here. If the matter falls, my general and I will pay the adults." It's not that I don't believe Tan Tuo, but this matter is too important to travel to the pool.
Zhifu Tan said: "No, General Yun and his wife are also for the 100,000 soldiers in the border town." It also depends on Yun Qing's sake of being a public official, or how he would cooperate this time.
ps: Sorry, I thought I would be back in the afternoon, but I didn't get home until 8 o'clock. The second estimate is after eleven o'clock. Let's see it tomorrow!
